Okay, welcome to this week's CMC Markets weekly charting analysis video. My name's Jasper Lawlett, Mark Analyst here at CMC, I've got the risk warning on the page. We're going to get through that and then get into what could be driving markets this week. We'll be looking at the charts of some major indices, effects and commodities and also talking about some of the major fundamental drivers. See a little bit of a sketchy start to the week. We had a massive run higher on Friday in stock markets, so to be expected to some extent to see a little bit of a pullback, if we pull up UK markets, pull up the 3100, you can see where we are. We saw that big jump higher above the recent ceiling which has been around the 6000 mark, a big push up right beyond 6100 and just getting a pull back to that once resistance now potential support. For this breakout to really see any sustained move higher, we ideally want to see this 6000 mark. I put the real line in the sand here at about 6000, 10, but 6000 is the round number, we need to hold above there really. We need to close the day above there I think for this upside breakout to sustain itself, otherwise we may have seen the top of the retracement and could be in for a down move back maybe sub 5800. The driver you probably know of the big move higher on Friday was the policy move from the Bank of Japan. They chose to cut interest rates into the negative, you can see the result in the Japanese yen if we switch across to that. Quite a strong correlation between the yen and US government yield, sort of the general desire for risk. You can see there that we are hovering sub 119, struggling to get through it and suddenly we flew 200 pips higher above 121 and we are sort of sustaining those gains in dollar yen at the moment. Something to look out for will be we had sort of a one, two, three trend line break, now we are back to it and we are right at this 200 day SMA, so a little confluence of resistance potentially below this 122 that could actually cap the gains in dollar yen. The yen is generally viewed as a haven when there is some turmoil out there, so you can see dollar yen kind of moves in sync with stock markets, so stocks can keep pushing higher. Dolly yen probably can too, however as maybe today is a sign of, if stock markets start to roll over then dolly yen could too. It is worth noting just on the Japan front that the governor of the Bank of Japan is speaking on Wednesday, so that will be an important one for both yen and stock markets to get out there, so give us a little clue as to what the thinking was and the negative rates, what he hopes to achieve from it and the market can obviously form their own opinion of that. My take is that potentially this just the cutting into negative interest rates is just a sign as to how little more the Bank of Japan can do on the quantitative easing front and it was the QE that really boosted the NECA, boosted, devalued the yen and this is a sign that there is no more QE to come, that is probably actually a negative for the dollar yen, probably a positive for the yen. So we will have to see how he characterizes this and whether it is the sign of more things to come. Japanese inflation is still pretty weak despite all the efforts that have been made to date. That does not mean that they are just going to give up on the current efforts, that probably just means they are going to ramp it up even more. But there is a question mark how much more they can actually do. The Bank of Japan currently own, I believe it is about 40% of the total issuance of Japanese debt, so 60% to go but still a bit of an unsustainable path you probably agree. So if we work our way down the sort of general equity markets here, we have a touch on the UK 100, similar story in US markets where we had basically on the US 30, I had it down to the sort of 16 180 area, you could drop that even down to sort of 16 100 was the kind of ceiling to the price action since that massive drop in from January and then we got a breakthrough that we still sub the 50% replacement and there is a little confluence of potential resistance there around that sort of 1600 to 630 mark from that peak on January 13th and the 50% Fibonacci retracement of this downdraft that began on the day before New Year's Eve. I think this is a breakout, it's a fairly obvious breakout, similar to what we said for the FTSE 100, so we'll have to see how the markets close in relation to in this case the 16 180 and in the case of the FTSE 100, you can see on the chart there that it's more like, as we mentioned, the sort of 6000 to 6010 mark, similar sort of equivalent levels, obviously UK markets are open now, they're down a bit, we're still basing this on US futures markets and not the actual cash markets, obviously not open for another hour. Not a couple of hours Mark, excuse me. But you can see that kind of what we're doing is we're pulling back, we just want to see how far that retracement goes to judge whether this breakout is sustained. Well I suspect it probably will be, but I would be looking at possible weakness at that 1600 level in the US 30 and again, they're always the corollary, if you find what you believe to be an important level, look for a possible move from there, if there isn't one, then it can tell you that there's probably some strength in the market and you should change your bias to the other direction. We'll move this week, of course we'll talk about it in terms of the dollar as well, but we've got non-farm payrolls on Friday, so we'll probably spend a lot of the week looking towards that. We've also got some major technology company earnings and we've actually issued a special report and some of the big ones that happened last week, a lot of summary of those, Amazon and Apple, most importantly I would say, and then also the upcoming earnings this week, including Google and Yahoo, so that'll be some drivers of US stocks on the earnings front, some of them will also widely watch growth companies and how well they perform, but also just what's happening in China and so today part of the reason for getting a bit of a drop off here is the generally weak manufacturing data from China. We've got services data coming out on Wednesday, so that'll be another one to look out for. Today we have ISM manufacturing from the US and on Wednesday, you see that Monday and Wednesday tend to be the days for the ISM, the PMI data, one of the services PMI data from the US, ISM non-manufacturing on Wednesday. So I'm going to move swiftly over to the FX front here, but any questions at all? Please feel free to shoot over to me and I'm happy to answer any questions you might have had of what I'm talking about here or just some other topic. Now looking at the pound, this is the daily chart in the pound, you can see that the closing level has been quite a sort of volatile range in which the opening and closing levels have been fairly consistent over the past four days, and so we're just trying to decide here in sterling whether we're at a base, this 140 mark, 141 really. Give you some context on that 141. Here's a monthly chart, and you can see that this support we're looking at is multi-year support from back in 2010. We managed to just about sort of close the week, close the month even in that sort of vicinity, which suggests that we didn't see a substantial close below it, suggests that there's some chance of a bounce back here, and then if we go to the weekly chart, you can see the kind of indecision that we're experiencing at the moment, where there is that long bottom-tailed sort of doji on the previous week, and then we saw more of a kind of higher top-tail doji last week. So definitely indecision, we don't quite know which way we're going. I would suggest maybe in the short term, the fact that we didn't really see such a strong follow-through on the original reversal would suggest that maybe we've got a little bit of a short-term downside before we can probe higher again, but the best judge of that would be whether we can push and close one side of this range or the other. So 142, 30 I would say on the downside, and then sort of 143, 50 on the top side, are kind of the kind of closing levels that we want to be eyeing up to determine which way this breakout could go. Obviously the trend very much to the downside, so if you are taking any top-side breakout, be aware that you're against the general flow of things, well below the 200-day moving average, which could suggest that we're in for a bit of a move back towards it, but nonetheless, that sort of denotes a downtrend as do the lower low and the lower high on the weekly chart. The other big event this week is the Bank of England, and that includes the inflation report on Thursday. The, there's been a sort of a article doing a round today that's quite worth reading, is that Mark Carney could be the first Bank of England governor since I think 1932 that just doesn't change interest rates for his whole term. He's supposed to be here for five years. That could get extended to the normal eight, but you know, maybe even eight years he'll fulfill the same. So the point being that it doesn't look like UK interest rates are going up any time soon, and that's being priced into the pound, particularly with the likes of a, you know, it looks like Cameron is making some progress supposedly in Europe over negotiating a deal for the UK and Europe, so that would bring a Brexit vote closer possibly this year, June or September I think of the two periods being talked about. So there's going to be some uncertainty about how much the Bank of England can do before that kind of vote. So the thinking that maybe that Brexit in itself is not a cause for weakness in the pound, but it can, you know, can be a reason that the Bank of England would hold off.  Can we really take the currency lower before that, before that vote's even been made? Possibly not. Now, very interesting chart setting up in the Euro at the moment. This is a daily chart. You can see these fairly consistent reversals of this downsloping trend line here. This is also a weekly high and a lower weekly high here. But more interesting than I would say is that we've got a weekly low here and then a higher weekly low. So signs that the down trend that really kicked off back in October over speculation of a, you know, further easing, which was then disappointed in December, you know, signs that maybe that, you know, we're actually going to find these maybe see some follow-through on that initial reaction in December, maybe a topside breakout of this declining trend line. We do have the 200-day moving average above us. So well below that 200-day moving average, you know, upside may be limited, but what I think could be interesting here is the fact that the 200-day is starting to slope higher. So obviously the market's been very flat, but the 200-day, the average over the last 200-days is starting to slope up again. That's not characteristic of a down trend, but you know, that's more characteristic of an up trend as is this higher weekly low. So a couple of reasons to think that maybe we could eventually get a push through what the important one is that it's just a 110 here. I've drawn this declining trend line. I think that could give us an early warning signal, but we probably want a weekly close above 110 to really tell us that we're in business. Draghi is speaking at 4 p.m. today. So if he says anything particularly disappointing, we could get a pretty quick move to the top side here. But chances are he's probably going to really try and talk down the currency again, arguably even more so in response to the Bank of Japan, given that they've just made efforts to weaken their currency, essentially, with the negative interest rates. So Draghi may feel it's necessary to step up the rhetoric to push down the euro. In which case that would kind of set up an interesting scenario where maybe you get a push down through this low from the 21st of January, maybe even this low from the 5th of January. And the nature of the beast is obviously with trading, the stop losses are often placed beneath lows. That's generally how we define the trend, isn't it? So what you can sometimes see is that the price will push lower into the kind of area where you see people selling, selling on a breakdown and cutting their losses with a stop loss. So you see both stop losses and entry orders on a break lower. So what you can see is sometimes is that big, saddier players in the market, aware of the kind of general dynamic, will push prices lower on a news event, like Draghi speaking, into an area of lots of liquidity, where there's lots of selling going on, on a break down and stop losses, and take that and buy all those sell orders up and more, and push the market higher. So that could be something to look out for. Moving over to commodities, obviously another reason why we're down in equities today is that we're pushing a bit lower in crude oil. So I mentioned to my previous chart post was on this pretty well-defined declining trend line. I think that's seen on the four-hour chart, but you can on the daily two. We pushed straight through it. Wasn't even, I think there was maybe one slight hesitation or candlestick there. We ran straight through it, but we saw a sharp reversal on the same day that we did break through it from this previous support area, which I had on my chart, on this one here. So we pulled back from that. We pushed higher again. So we're kind of in the short term we're a bit sideways in oil. Quite possibly we need another little push lower towards support at $33.50 or maybe even $32.75. These peaks here or this peak here to have a real chance of getting through $35.75. But I think probably, despite this sharp reversal here, there's a good chance we can. The market was overly short. And I don't think that there's too much interest in heavily shorting after this big squeeze. And even though it looks like probably there isn't going to be a joint output cut from both Russia and OPEC, which is part of what fueled this big spike in prices, there's still a possibility of it. And I think maybe that could dissuade a few people going short at such low levels. The other big one to note is hopefully some of you will watch my short snapshot video on gold from Thursday. Back when we're up at this trend line here, I talked about a possible retracement from this. At that point, it was a possible trend line because we'd closed below it there, shown some evidence of resistance. I said there could be a pullback to the 110 area, which was these two previous peaks. That's pretty much what we've got. We're pushing back higher towards the peak again now. So a little retracement and bounce of previous resistance turns poor. And characteristic of a strong trend in gold with this pullback here, if we'd come all the way back to the lows, maybe this low from the 22nd of January, or particularly even back to beneath 1080, still characters and uptrends, still holding above this significant low here, about 107.2. But a much weaker uptrend. The fact that we managed to bounce straight off that 110 is a bit more characteristic of a stronger trend, where we're finding support at old highs rather than old lows. And so, indicating we could get a push through the old high, but we do have a confluence of resistance at around 1130 from the 200-day moving average and the 61.8% FIBO. Well, the FIBO actually have not been working particularly perfectly on this push higher. But still, when combined with the 200-day, could, and the round number of the sort of 1130, could together cause a bit of a sell-off there, which is only just above the previous peak. So we have to watch for that. But if we can close above those levels, not much in the way of resistance, really, all the way back up to 1180. So I think that's about it. I've said most of what I need to say. Not seen any questions here, so thank you all for attending. Good luck with trading this week. Jasper Lawler signing out.


I would recommend this follow ask is the Livestreams that I used to make I would gather every change that I would see that it was yeah worth showing Into one long show these little videos though sometimes there's like a one feature I don't know if it's worth a 10 second Let me know in the comments, but I gather for this one I gather a whole bunch of changes in the user interface in one topic to talk about today. So in the first Section we're gonna cover the modifier. So if you are following the blender development lately the internet broke when The change was done this change seems like forever was requested to be able to drag and drop the modifiers Not only that there is also Panels and stuff, but there was a removal of the buttons here for applying and duplicating They were moved into this drop-down and that we got a lot of feedback about the speed that you would lose When using that that method from the drop-down, however, the plan was to have shortcuts You know blender used to be built around shortcuts for like everything then in 2.8 It was more about okay Let's let's add things to the user interface and also keep some of the shortcuts because they are Undoubtedly the fastest way to work So in here for if you want to duplicate a modifier you will go into like click and then duplicate in the new Setup, I don't know if you've seen how I deleted how fast that you can do the same shortcut that you see in the viewport for duplicating Now you can go here and then just press it with the mouse somewhere in the panel You can anywhere in the panel you can do a shift D and bam It's there you want to remove it which which key do you press in the viewport X? So you go here and X removes it what else you know how to apply modify apply The location rotation to this object in the viewport with control a so you go here and do the same Control a and it's gonna apply the modifier isn't that faster than just going to press a button find the button even or Just going to the to the menu so you can do everything you can apply duplicate delete all with Shortcuts that is awesome. And that is on top of the other modifier Key that it was for Expanding and collapsing. There is now also another modifier like if I see duplicate this a lot There is a modifier for if you have a panel open and you control a it's gonna close or open all of the Panels inside, so it's a nice as a nice tip What else being? Let me see here I have the list because so many little changes the outliner And the object so when you have objects linked in the drop down that it's a it's a drop down for data blocks So it's called like the search drop down because allows you to search this Once when you have like an a linked object It will show like an L here if you have an overridden object It will be an O or a missing object will be an M that can be a bit a bit Confusing to to see what exactly did what so this is how it used to that is how it used to look and now it's icons yay iconography easier to to recognize you can see that the Overridden now has a like a link and arrow the missing is clearly broken and then the linked is here However, even on top of that there is a nice addition that not only the linked are show this way But now they also show is for example, they are linked in a separate on a second level So you can see that the linked and direct are Opaque and the ones that are slightly deemed is the ones that are indirect So it's not the direct library is a library of a library that is linking in This is also in the outliner if you go to data API here You can see that the meshes or anything that is linked is going to show the icon right here and the same for Everything else. So yes icons galore Since we are in the outliner there is a great great new feature that allows you to Scroll while you drag objects. So if you added an object and you reach the bottom Isn't it great? So this feature that also works in the in them in the modifiers That was added for the actually the original one was added for the modifiers. So in case you have many for example That's I have a mini and then I do here if I drag it to the to the edge It's gonna drag the rest and this also applies now to the outliner Let us know if there are parts of other parts of lander that would benefit of this feature. Maybe some are overlooked Extending other parts. So these ones are more like a little additions here and there one is for example that the the renaming of things renaming renaming of for example the Denoising the noising here now happens. It has its own panel and their sampling if you're using cycles, you're gonna see the The kind of denoising for the viewport or for rendering when you choose viewport You have the option for optics on open image denoise the one from Intel the video optics and automatic It used to until last week used to say fastest optics because optics is the fastest option, but now this is automatic which is easier and To understand and also in the description. You're gonna read which one is gonna use If you have optics available optics is faster. Otherwise, it's gonna use the CPU based open image denoise Another renaming is that for example, did you know you can drag and drop images in the viewport and it's gonna make a An image reference is an empty basically with an image type. Well, this used to be called alpha now It's called transparency. That's a small change But it's for me to for being more consistent and I think now that I look at it This could all become one line. We could have transparency and then the checkbox just like we had here This thing is more clear. It's easier to understand That's another one and while we're at it. Let's let's add some tips to it Did you know that you can drag a new image? This is what I just show now Did you know that you can if you drag it on top of that image of the same? Empty in this case is gonna replace it. It's not gonna make a new one It's just replacing it so you can choose if you want to make a new one or replace it and And only that if you drop a video in this case I'm dropping the the whole actually here You can see the whole coming on this lamigos and I drop it there and it's it's it's added now If I give it to calculate the frames, I can actually Play the film from a reference image video That's not new actually that's been around for a while, but it's nice to show to share the tips What else naming if since we are talking about renaming things the lock rot and The lock rot options lock rot scale Now has been renamed to the full name location rotation scale The same for all of the other ones. There was really no reason nowadays. We can fit them But this was legacy from back in the days where it used to be lock lock rot and the options were limited So what else we can now? Extrude money fault. This used to be called until a few weeks ago Extrude dissolve and intersect. It was this new kind of of extruding that allows you to to have To for example extrude but extrude to the inside and you can see for example extrude inside outside and have a this this It's very special way of extruding and removing option geometry at the same time and last but not least in the mesh department is that it the Loop cut and slide this tool has been around forever But it was never added in the menu in the edge menu and it seems only works here for edges It's now here. So it's easier to find and the last one Is in the user preferences a hidden hidden treasure is the experimental feature This you see it is used this is used mainly by developers to test their features But also to get some user feedback. It's a fast way to enable some features You have to enable developer extras in the interface section and you're gonna see this experimental button down here You're gonna find things and ways to play and break maybe your blender and your data So careful when you play with this stuff The new particle system part of the everything notes project is here. There is a new hair type You're gonna find it if you do shift a and you're gonna find that there's actually Hair and point cloud you can do much with this nowadays At this point, but you can read more when you click in here It's gonna take you to the window in the browser It's gonna take you to the page where you can read more about it and do legacy. This is the slow and do Not recommended to turn it on and cycles debug It's also it's gonna add a panel here for debugging your cycles render This is mainly targeted at developers though. It's not for the user for the end user to to find out But you know, it's there That is all let's keep it short as short as possible. Thank you for watching I'm gonna keep making this short videos. Is it worth to make a 10 second 30 second video one minute video of a feature? Let me know. Otherwise, I keep backing them into this in the in doing like summary videos Alright time to close. Ciao. See you in the next one. Bye. Bye


There's nothing magical about convincing people to say yes. The top psychologists know that we don't need to cast a spell or hypnotize people to persuade them to do what we want. All we need is a solid understanding of psychology. So what does science say about the art of persuasion? How can we use our knowledge of the human brain to get people to say yes? We've come up with seven tricks that might just work. Know your audience. This should be your first step. Before you even try to persuade someone, you need to understand who that person is on the inside. You need to know what makes them tick. One study examined different advertising techniques used by big brands. They found that certain ads were more persuasive for different kinds of people. For example, extroverts responded differently to certain ads which appealed to their open-mindedness when compared to introverts. Changing your persuasion tactics based on the unique aspects of the person you're trying to persuade is called psychological targeting and it's extremely effective. Do favors for people. One of the best known persuasion techniques revolves around something called the reciprocity bias. This has been analyzed in many different studies. Basically, what it boils down to is simple. People are more likely to do favors for you if you've already done a favor for them in the past. If you want to persuade someone to do something, then you might want to help them out before you ask. The best part about this is, you don't need to actually explain what you're doing. There's no need to approach the person and slyly state, you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. Reciprocity bias influences a person on a subconscious level, without them even realizing it. Tell them everyone else is doing it. It's amazing how people will do just anything if it's seen as trendy. This is called social proof and it's a well-documented phenomenon in psychology today. Fortunately for you, it's also a great tool to use in the art of persuasion. If you're having trouble getting someone to say yes, then you might consider pointing out all the other people who have made the plunge. If enough people are doing it, people are much more likely to say yes. Make it sound like a rare opportunity. You've probably heard plenty of ads which rely on this persuasion technique. How many times have we heard a salesman tell us to act quickly and that soon all the products will be gone? This technique revolves around something called the scarcity principle, which is another well-documented psychological phenomenon. People are much more likely to act if they feel like whatever they have to gain is in short supply. Whatever is rare is automatically seen as valuable in the human brain, for the most part. So if you're trying to convince someone to say yes, why not use that to your advantage? Tell them how rare of an opportunity it is and how they might miss out if they don't act. Give it time. Patience is the best tactic. This is definitely true when it comes to persuasion. Why? It all has to do with something called the sleeper effect. Basically, this refers to the fact that people are more easily persuaded by a non-credible source the more time goes by. Even though someone might dismiss your persuasion techniques at first, they might soften up over time. Keep on repeating your arguments and the sleeper effect might make it easier for you to persuade them. Make it emotional. When it comes to the art of persuasion, this is huge. The simple fact is that emotions will carry more weight in an argument than actual facts. While this might not be the most logical behavior, it's just how the human brain works. Studies have shown that arguments are more effective when they rely on emotional undertones. Not only that, but they're even more effective when the arguments are crafted to match the target's current emotional state. For example, playing off someone's excitement is a great way to persuade them into doing what you want. Always keep a sense of humor. If you really want to persuade people, then you should definitely maintain a great sense of humor. One study even found that self-effacing humor was very effective in persuasion. For those who don't know, self-effacing is basically being timid or shy. When persuading people, it's easy to seem a little confrontational. But if you don't take yourself too seriously when trying to persuade others, it can definitely work to your advantage. You might even consider making fun of yourself.

Gastroesophageal reflux disease is one of the most common disorders of the digestive tract. The two most typical symptoms are heartburn and regurgitation of stomach contents up into the back of the throat.  It causes millions of doctor visits every year, millions of hospitalizations, and the most feared complication is cancer. We start out with a normal esophagus, and if the acid keeps creeping up, it gets all inflamed, and you can get esophagitis, which can turn into barit's esophagus, which can turn into cancer, adenocarcinoma. To prevent all that, we just need to prevent the acid reflux in the first place. In the last three decades, the incidence of this cancer in the US has increased sixfold, an increase greater than that of melanoma breast or prostate cancer, and that's because acid reflux is on the rise. In the United States, we're up to like one in four people suffering, at least weekly heartburn and or acid regurgitation, compared to down around 5% in Asia, suggesting dietary factors may play a role. In general, high fat intake is associated with increased risk, whereas high fiber foods appear to be protective. The reasons fat intake may be associated with GERD symptoms and erosive esophagitis is because studies on volunteers have shown that when we eat fatty foods, the sphincter at the top of the stomach that's supposed to keep the food down and the acid down is relaxed in the presence of fat, and so more acid can creep up into the esophagus. For example, if you have volunteers eat a high-fat meal, a McDonald's sausage, an egg, McMuffin, and compare that to a low-fat meal, McDonald's hotcakes, there was significantly more acid squirted up in the esophagus after the high-fat meal. Then in terms of later stages, over the last 20 years, 45 studies have been published in the Association between Barrett's esophagus, esophageal cancer, and diet. In general, they found that meat and high-fat meals appears to increase cancer risk. Though different meats were associated with cancers in different places. Red meat was more associated with cancer in the esophagus, but poultry was more associated with cancer at the top of the stomach. Whereas meat alternatives, quote-unquote, such as beans and nuts, were associated with a significantly decreased risk of cancer, consistent with previous data suggesting a protective effect of plant protein sources, as well as fruits, vegetables, and antioxidants in produce form, though not pill form. Those eating the most antioxidant-rich foods had half the odds of esophageal cancer, whereas practically no reduction in risk among those who use vitamin supplements, such as vitamin C or E pills. The most protective produce may be red-orange vegetables, dark green leafies, berry juice, apples, and citrus. But it may not just be the plants. Eating healthy foods crowds out less healthy foods, so it may be a combination of both. Based on a study of 3,000 people, the consumption of non-vegetarian foods was an independent predictor of GERD, which in this study in India presumably included eggs, which are considered non-vegetarian. Egg yolks appear to increase this hormone called cholecystokine, induces this increase, which may overly relax the sphincter that separates the esophagus from the stomach. The same hormone is increased by meat, which may help explain why vegetarianism appeared to be a protective factor for reflux esophagitis. Researchers found that those eating meat had twice the odds of reflux-induced esophageal inflammation, therefore vegetarian diets may offer protection, though it's uncertain again whether it's attributable to the absence of meat in the diet or the increased consumption of healthy foods. Vegetarian diets are characterized by greater consumption of fruits and vegetables, containing innumerable phytochemicals, dietary fiber, antioxidants, and omnivores. In addition to just restricting their consumption of the animal sources of food, which tend to be fattier and then can relax that sphincter and aggravate reflux. Bottom line, GERD is common, its burdens are enormous, it relapses frequency and can cause bleeding and strictures, not to mention a deadly cancer. The mainstay of treatment is the proton pump inhibitors, which rake in billions of dollars. We spend $4 billion on nexium, a loan of $3 billion on Prevus, $2 billion on protonics, $1 billion on acid facts, but they can cause nutrient deficiencies, increase the risk of pneumonia, food poisoning, and bone fractures. Thus it's important to find correctable risk factors and correct them. Known correctable risk factors are things like obesity, smoking, and alcohol consumption, but there hadn't been studies on eating meat versus not eating meat, but now we have another correctable factor to help prevent this disease.

I'm so excited about this I'm giving away three one hundred dollar Amazon gift cards to anybody in the world completely open international But I will give you guys all the details at the end of the video in the outro section Just so you guys can watch the DIYs and then enter the giveaway at the end And this honestly is just because I really want to kick off the holiday season with of course like a little Giveaway for you guys, but also I want to thank you so so much for getting me to 100,000 subscribers I think we're at 105,000 right now, which is absolutely insane And I just want to thank you guys from the bottom of my heart and I love you so much But in this video I have four insane holiday DIYs they look incredible like they look like you buy them at a store Like I don't know. I just love the way that they turned out I think you're going to really enjoy them and let's just hop on in today's video For this first project here that is super easy, but super super cute All you're going to need is a pillow a blank pillow pencil fabric adhesive and some gold sequins trim And I found this at Joanne's fabrics and then I also pulled up this reference photo from Pinterest I love the way that this loopy sort of cursive Mary was spelled out So I sort of used my pencil to trace the similar style of the word Mary And I also wanted to let you guys know that I found this pillow in the dollar section at Target So right at the front by the door they have a lot of different Christmas pillows right now They're only $3 each so that's what I used this white one with the red trim on it I thought it was super perfect for this project actually and then once I have that word Mary mapped out You can sort of see what I have going on here with the pencil mark. That's very faint on there I used my Faber-Tac adhesive and I went all the way around the letters and I did it in small sections So that way I can glue down the sequins ribbon all the way around and the sequins is just so pretty and the Faber-Tac adhesive Is nice because it adheres anything to fabric which of course is the pillow So that's why I did that and I went all the way around the pillow with a glue in small sections and just adhered it down the sequins ribbon This glue also does take a little while to dry maybe about a couple of hours So you have a little bit of like free time to play around with the shape and just like move it Maneuver it around if you want to and then I cut off the ending That's the end of my word Mary and it turned out perfectly And then I thought I would pick off a couple of the sequins and sort of place them around just to add a little more extra Shine to the project, but I ended up not liking it I just took them off in the end and just left it sort of plain and more minimalistic Which is what I totally loved and I am so obsessed with this it's on my bed currently and that's a pillow This advent calendar is super quirky, but also super useful and I use 12 toilet paper rolls some black paint a hot glue gun some coordinating tissue paper and a Pair of scissors as well So what I started off by doing was finding the middle point of each toilet paper roll Which was the 2-inch mark and I cut down the center of the toilet paper roll with a pair of scissors And that is because we're just gonna get 24 of these half toilet paper rolls Which is gonna of course be our 24-day countdown to Christmas and I cut down all of them Just fluff them up when you're completely done Next you're just going to add a very thin bead of hot glue around the rim of the toilet paper roll and place it down on top of Your tissue paper like so and just let it dry for a couple of minutes You're going to repeat this on all 24 of the toilet paper rolls And I do want to mention that this project seems a lot more like time-inducing that it actually is this only took Me like 45 minutes to create and it was just like very therapeutic and easy It's not a hard project at all. So don't think it's very daunting if you do think so because it's pretty simple and easy honestly So then I just went in and roughly cut around the tissue paper edges with a pair of scissors That just makes it a lot easier when we go to the actual cutting portion here And all I'm doing is just budding my scissors up to the edge of the toilet paper roll and just cutting off all that Excess tissue paper on all 24 rolls And now it is time to create the house shape so the house shape is actually four of these rolls wide and six tall which equals 24 and I did find this idea on Pinterest actually I saw someone else create it There was no tutorial on how to make it But I saw someone like create it as a finished project and I really wanted to create a tutorial on how to do So so I'll link the original one below so I can give credit to the owner because this project was really cute and fun And so all I did was just glue all of these toilet paper rolls together in a row again four by six And that finishes off the base of the house Next what I did was cut two pieces of scrap cardboard to just a two inch wide by seven inch long strip Just to create the top panel of the house and I use a little bit of hot glue just to secure it to the little Cylinder panel that we already created and then I wanted to cut out a small little section to go on the inside as well So I just trace that on the another piece of scrap cardboard and then cut that out And then we're gonna glue that on the interior just to sort of finish off the frame of the house And before we add the candy, which is the fun part or whatever you want to add in there I use a thin paintbrush and just a little bit of black paint to very carefully sort of write on the numbers So I did one two three four in a row and just went down accordingly all the way till you hit 24 22 got a little wonky there, but I think that it ended up perfectly fine I don't think it's like a huge eyesore and then I use a little bit of Ferrerochet and these little Ghirardelli peppermint barks Which are my favorite and I filled up this advent calendar, but you can really put whatever you want in here Like you can put little trinkets Random things I don't know whatever you want to put in there You can put in there But I just put candy in there because it just seems the easiest at the time And then I cut a small panel of cardboard just to place on the back side of this to finish it off And you're just going to hot glue this panel down Just trim any edges if you need to but this is basically gonna finish off the project All I did to finish off it completely was add a little bit of yarn to the top as a hanger But you can also just lean this up against a wall or whatever you want to do with that A little scrap piece of yarn that I hot glued to the very edge here on the top And you could hang it up and that is your finished advent calendar You just got to poke your finger through and grab your treat for the day I personally thought this next idea was just really really cute And I used some Styrofoam balls and assorted sizes this Snowtex white paint I found and then some glitter and a paintbrush as well So this Snowtex white paint is literally just like very very chunky white paint That sort of resembles snow when it dries down, which I totally love And also these jars of it is only $1.99 each, which I thought was a pretty great deal You get a good amount I only used one for the whole project and what I did was use this brush here And I just bristled on the white Snowtex around the entire little Styrofoam ball here And after I went ahead and did that and just kind of like brush it on You have to get it into all the little cracks and crevices of the Styrofoam Which is kind of annoying But honestly it takes like a couple minutes per Styrofoam ball And then you move on to the next one And on some of the Styrofoam balls I actually went in and added a little bit of glitter I only did it on some Glitter is from Target in the kids section actually I love the way it kind of has an iridescent shimmer to it And that's really all after I brushed all of them You can sort of just let them dry And I also created the cutest little sign for them Which I'll show you how to make in a second here For the sign I used a bit of white cardstock, black paint, white paint, and a paintbrush So I just scored it on a little bit of black paint And I really wanted sort of like a chalkboard effect Which is why I didn't use black cardstock to start off with And then I used some white paint just to spell out the word snowballs And it says snowballs $1 I just like, I don't know, handwrote that out Just eyeballing it I guess you can say And that finishes off your little sign You can cut it out and then you can just shove it in there with like a toothpick Or a little popsicle stick, which is exactly what I did This last project is the perfect winter accessory And what I used for this was some glass vases, mod podge, glitter, some printer paper, paintbrush, and some scissors So what we're creating here is just some paper snowflakes And I'll show you exactly what to do So you're going to fold down the corner of your printer paper To create a perfect square here And you're just going to fold it down to where it stops on the edge Cut off the excess and you have a perfect square And then what I did was just fold that square in half and then in half again So I got a sort of like reference line to create four smaller squares And then what I did after that was just fold the triangle down the center as you can see here And then I decided that the background was not working with me So you guys couldn't see what I was doing But you're just going to fold the edges as shown here Just up and over So you kind of create this weird kind of like fox looking shape, I guess you could say And then I use my pencil to just trace on random snowflake shapes So this is where you can get each of your snowflake ends And that's what you're going to do Just trace them on using a pencil Use a pair of scissors and cut them out And once you have the full shape cut out, you're going to unfold it all And it's going to create a cute snowflake It's so easy and so fun And not to mention this project is also super universal Because you can really create so many different things with the snowflakes You don't only have to stick them on a candle holder You can really put them on anything you want Once all of your snowflakes are cut out I use this hard coat mod pod which really hardens up the paper a lot And I just did three coats of it on each of the snowflakes So I just used a watercolor brush And painted on that mod podge all over all the snowflakes Both front and back That way it gives it like a nice hard encased coating Again, I sprinkled a little bit of glitter on each of them Just to give them an iridescent shine And just really padded it onto the mod podge base Just so that it got a nice shiny look It looks much more shiny in person Than it is picking up on the camera, I swear And then I also wanted to add a little bit of accent to the little glass jars So I used some mod podge and painted it on the edge of those glass jars And then I sprinkled on the glitter as well And the mod podge dries completely clear So you're not going to have any of that white showing through It's just going to dry down and the glitter is just going to be stuck on there Which is pretty cool and nice It's going to look like floating little miscelly Like wintertime effect I don't even know what I said there Please disregard it And then once you have all those on there You're just going to glue down your snowflakes I used a little bit of hot glue On the edges of the snowflakes And just glued them right onto the vase You can really put them anywhere you want to And just drop in some pillar candles And that is your finished little snowflake embellished vase So guys, that was today's holiday

Oh Scouting report for Zan scouting report. How do I choose what playbook? I just try to find something new to try if it's good or bad. That's all. Let me send the friendly It's returning. Let's get a fumble early Let's go the pressure Good pressure 35 good pressure my pick. Thank you. All right, this guy should play good defense though So we'll get a good rep right here. Yeah, he got baited. It wasn't a horrible read if I wasn't there It was wide open like all right, dude. Yeah, I think it's just easy to play me, huh? I must be at dog. Like how does nobody block him right there?  I almost got like nanoed right there bad I don't know how did you guys see like I like I feel like he didn't even blitz and somehow there was still like Like a dude coming free through the agap. God is free. Come on game. We don't need pick artists on everybody Zan might flood. I don't know Zan might flood Woolen is woolen is the man did I if I if you told me after playing a game in a quarter Who was so much must have player I'd go woolen. I know he's probably the most expensive card in game But yeah, he's a beast these kids are a little different in first month, huh? They're kind of cracked in the summer, huh? Sit that down sauce Bro, and you know what's I double click because I thought they would click me on the guy that was manned up So I double clicked right there and I thought it was gonna be the easiest pick But of course they clicked me on the guy that wasn't manned up on him But he was closer to the ball the sound I made it just sound more complicated than it was But I wanted to click on it as safety and hit stick them But that safety low key caught up that safety like low key got there I don't know what happened though, but the safety low key got there Yo magnetic Nick suburban, bro, let's go Michi 85 speed. Is anybody on catch them? Will anybody catch them? These guys are coming way too close to catching them. Let's go Michi Now you gotta learn to tackle Matt Tackling is one of the best like there's a difference in Matt and being able to tackle for real Obviously should take you should kick off. You should click off on you can in some spots That was the easiest kick return I've I honestly that was part of that dude all I did was like like run to the side Just got great blocking I was Honestly, he and this is why you can't have like you got to get rid of those silvers on your backups Cuz if you have backup like linebackers, they might put them on special teams He might have had some silver backups out there. Who is this Engel guy? I swear it's a full back.  Click in the stick and go get this guy. What are we dog? Oh? My god, bumming kid, dude, dog. He could he's audible and snap to run so fast Like I was in the middle.  Dude just slipped through everybody tackle. It's good adjustments, bro. You're just tickled. Oh, yeah My day is like where my day is on a quick sale situation right now. I can't lie. I don't know if he's broken a tackle I really don't know what he's doing Honestly, I didn't look at that guy. Hey, I was the last person. I looked at it. Oh, you missed the streak I I did as would not think there's no deep blue coverage over there. You know. Yeah I don't I just assumed that he would cover the deep blue like like why would you not have a why the it's first Oh, it's second down. Like what are you doing, dude? It's not the game's not on the line What are you do? Why would you not cover the street the ball man your screamer? Oh my god He actually got yards on that Come on sauce.  Yeah Let's put every formation in one playbook. Awesome, dude.  Just awesome. Is the NFL ruling where I can just fair catch some of these Oh for and get to the 25 Is this game worth it? I've told people a million times in my life, bro Do you have to ask is the game worth it? Then it's absolutely not worth it Remind that you can't run through a arm tackle. I'm gonna be honest, man.  That's a beat of a man right there That was a hell of a read from the kids and we dropped it.  I can't lie to you The way honestly, I would have never got through the gap right there to scramble He got through the gap kind of quick. Can't lie Dude stingly, like how were we not on? Was it delay route? We just gave up Screamer, that's what I like to see 3 3 5. That's what I like to see 3 3 5 Well, I actually hate how bad the icons are dude. It's an audible mix make audible and that much worse Oh my god, there's no way we had six people manned up over there and that was that open jc horn I've never had the icons change this much. I've never had the icons change this much this game Every time he's audible somebody's a different color a different everything Stingly got the tight end if the tight ends on a streak or something. We're in trouble here Good all good saying that we need a fumble there. So again, we're shaded down again We've got a deep blue over the middle though I'm actually going to do that because I'm worried about I mean, come on curl.  We were so baggy right there. It's so baggy right there. Let's go man. So bag Okay, sauce. That was the worst. I've ever seen you like dog.  They all got beat right there I was shading down like last four plays Dude, I can't allow this running back.  Let's go, man Get about it. Oh, if you block for me God, man. All right, we need a center. We need a center Put them up Let's go man. I feel like we had a good offensive game boys. Was this a we played good on offense here I said this guy's a little sweaty Defensively, I feel like he was kind of lost. I can't lie We got one free touchdown, but I thought we played a good game. I think it has been a beast I don't know. I haven't used anybody else. So He caught that pass Hey, no way, dude, imagine imagine like that on like a big play and catch that like that I don't know man. I think xan might xan might popington I don't know. I think we gotta put the line and like xan might be like minus seven and a half I don't know man. I don't know. Modric does think I can't lie, dude.  But like who was even a good running back?

So get Jello tomorrow in all of Jello's six delicious flavors, strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon, and lime. Just one taste of this grand treat and you'll know right away why rich, shimmering, genuine Jello is America's favorite gelatin dessert. Daddy with a Pickled Beat played by the orchestra. And now, ladies and gentlemen, for the next to the final broadcast of the season, we bring you a man who came to you last October fresh as a daisy and is now standing here faded as a future Jack Benny. Jello again, this is Jack Benny talking. And Don, I'm sure glad we've only got one more program to do. After 35 consecutive weeks of broadcasting, I'm worn out. Boy, I'm all in. Oh, Jack Radio isn't as tough as all that. When you come right down to it, you only broadcast one day a week. I know, Don, but think of all the preparation, the jokes, and the new ideas I have to have. Tell you, I'm exhausted. Well, you've got writers, haven't you? You mean corn and poem? Writers. A fine team. I bought them a typewriter the other day and they did a Maypole dance with the ribbon. A lot of help they are. Where'd you ever find those boys, Jack? Were they professional writers when you picked them up? No, they were just a couple of fast talkers. I met them in a drugstore in New York. One of them used to demonstrate hair tonic and the other one drank it. Anyway, they told me they were writers, so I hired them and I've been sorry ever since. Well, Jack, if they don't do their work properly, why don't you get rid of them?  No, I'm going to give them one more chance, Don. But if I don't grow hair by next year, out they go. No jokes, no hair, no wonder I'm tired. Oh, Jack, you always have to make such a big issue out of everything. What? To hear you talk, anybody think you work like a dog. Well, that's the most ridiculous statement I've ever heard. Why, Mary, do you realize what 35 weeks in radio takes out of me? Well, you take something out of radio, don't you? That's not the point. That doesn't tire me. It's the work I have to do. Just lucky that I have a good constitution and the strain doesn't show. Not much. You're as washed out as a teabag in a boarding house. Well, that doesn't make sense because a used teabag is tan and I'm as pale as a ghost. You know what it's from, don't you? It's those weeks and weeks of hard grinding labor. Labor? Do you call what you do labor? Well, chew, chew, chew, if it isn't the honeymoon express. What did you say, baby? That's what she calls them, folks. What did you say? Look, Jackson, I've been listening to this chatter and I don't know what you're beeping about. You only do one broadcast a week, don't you? Yes, but I... And that runs a half hour, right? Yes, but I get more lines than anyone else on the program. That's because you buy more hair tonics. Mary, I'm talking to Phil. And another thing, Jackson, out of that half hour, Don Wilson does two commercials. Yes, but... And Dennis Day sings a song. I know, but... And the boys and I do 10 minutes of music. You do 10 minutes of. Let's not classify it. Music, he calls it. Well, Alice thinks my band is wonderful. Phil, Alice is a dear sweet girl and she's entitled to her opinion. But love is blind and in this case, also deaf. Anyway, Phil, I don't know what you're driving at. What he means, Jack, is this. When you boil it down, you personally work on this program only 13 minutes a week. What? Imagine, only 13 minutes. Well, it's not the time involved, Don, it's the importance. For your information, it only took George Washington 12 minutes to cross the Delaware. How do you know? Jack was rowing the boat. I was not. I missed it. I mean, I wasn't in the boat. Now, let me tell you guys something else. Hello, everybody. What's all the excitement? Oh, this gang. Hello, Dennis. What's the matter? Jack's complaining because he has to work 13 minutes a week. Oh, where's he working? At the Acme Buttonhole Factory in Extra Pants, Nebraska. Where am I working? I was just telling the gang that the strain of broadcasting week after week is made a wreck out of me. Me too. I'd have a nervous breakdown if I could find a sanitarium that would take tenors. Dennis, what do you got to be tired about? You don't have that mental strain every week like I do. Well, I suppose it doesn't take brains to sing a song. No, not necessarily. Crickets can sing and they don't have any brains. Pardon me, Jack. Pardon me. Crickets don't exactly sing. Their song comes from rubbing the hind legs together. Oh. Say, I'll have to try that sometime. Do, Dennis, and let me know how it comes out. Meanwhile, let's have your song in the old-fashioned way we're about ready. Okay. What's it gonna be? I'm gonna sing You and I, a brand new number written by Mary Beth Wilson. That's Meredith Wilson. He's a conductor on the Maxwell House program. Oh. Now go ahead. Hold it a minute. Come in. Mr. Benny? Yes. I wonder if your writers would sell me a bottle of hair tonic. I, uh, I imagine they would. Do you want to grow hair? Yes. I'm tired of the wind and the rain in my scalp. Oh, get out of here. You know, every time I see his head, I feel like sticking my finger in his ear and bowling. Well, go ahead and sing, Dennis. With my legs on my tonsils. With your tonsils. Forget about that cricket. By Kenny Baker and very good Kenny. You know, a song like that especially good for your type. Kenny Baker? I'm Dennis Day, ain't I? Oh, certainly. What's the matter with me? See, fellas, I'm so tired and nervous. I don't know what I'm talking about. You guys think I don't need a rest. You're all so smart. And now, ladies and gentlemen.  No. No, Dennis. I'm just confused, that's all. I'm irritable because I'm tired. And now, ladies and gentlemen. If you think Kenny Baker can rub his hind legs together, why don't you get him? Dennis, will you please stop interrupting? Now go crawl under the piano. Okay. See you later. And now, folks, what a kid. And now, folks, Mr. Don Wilson, that eminent American playwright, has written another of his famous one-act plays. Take it, Mr. Wilson. Thank you.  That's right. The play opens in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Filbert Harris. Now, Jack Finley will play the part. Hey, wait a minute. I object. I don't want any play about my personal life, bud. What's this got to do with you? Well, the character in our play is Filbert Harris, not Phil. There's no connection.  Uh-huh. Hey, now hold it a minute. This guy's an orchestra leader and I'm an orchestra leader. I smell a rat. Well, it's not you. Continue, Doc. As the scene opens, Filbert's newly wedded wife, played by Miss Livingston, is at home waiting for her husband, Filbert, played by Mr. Bennet. It is dinner time. Turtle music. Oh, dear. I hope daddy isn't late.  Gosh, look at that salad. I wonder if the lettuce goes under the tomatoes or over the tomatoes. Oh, well. That must be baby now. Come in. Well, well, well. Hi, honey. Are you jiving? Are you on the beam? Are you solid? Now, hold on there, Jackson. That guy is me. I talk like that. Quiet.  I'll take it again, Mary. Hi, honey. Are you jiving? Are you on the beam? What's cooking, baby? Ham, hock, and butter beam. Now you're in business, honey. Yeah. Now you're operating. Yeah. Well. Mary. Burke. Say, honey, this food is okay, but where are them whipped potatoes you said he was going to make? We aren't having any. I couldn't find the whip. Night going, honey. That's a lululu. You're in there punching, Alice. Alice? Now I got you. That's my wife's name. Phil, this Alice is A-L-Y-C-E. How does your wife spell her name? Well, wait a minute. I'll call her up. Believe me, it's A-L-I-C-E. There's no connection. Uh, go ahead, Jack. It's your line. Oh, yes. Say, honey, are we having black-eyed peas with candied yams for dessert? No, baby. We're having jello. Jello will doggone dish me, honey. Dish me. Yeah. Not till you've had your ham hock. All right, baby. I'll eat them ham hocks, but I'm going to save plenty of room for jello. Yeah. So you see, ladies, if you're half and want to keep in solid with your husband, serve him a dish of tempt and appetizing jello. It comes in six delicious flavors. Strawberry, raspberry, cherry, orange, lemon, and lime. They're all... Get a boy, Don. There you see, Phil. Aren't you ashamed of yourself? That play had absolutely no connection with you. Well, I wish the quiz kids was here so I could check on that. Don't worry about it. Well, Don, that was a very original playlet. And incidentally, while we're on our vacation, why don't you write up a few more for next season? I'll try to. By the way, Jack, speaking of vacations, what are you doing this summer? Are you going out of town?  But I changed my mind. You know how Jack hates to dress for dinner. So, instead of that, Don, I intend to rough it.  It's way, way up in the mountains. How high is the place, Jackson? Three dollars a day. Oh, you mean the altitude? It's about 7,000 feet. But it's ideal for me. Just give me a mountain stream and a fishing rod and, brother, those trout better watch out. Oh, sure. You wait and see. You couldn't catch a herring in Lindy's with Abe Lyman for bait.  So, cut it out. Well, so much for my vacation now. How about a number, Phil? Okay, Jackson. Oh, Jack, I meant to ask you, who's taking over our show for the summer? Well, Don, the sponsor has a brand new program lined up called Regular Fellows, and it's adapted from Gene Byrne's famous comic strip of that name.  Oh, yes. Well, that sounds like it'll be a lot of fun. It'll be a swell show, Don, and I wish Regular Fellows a lot of luck on their summer series. Well, go ahead, Phil. Let's have your number. Now what? Come in. Mr. Benny, I still can't find your writers. Where are they? Look, bud, it's none of my business, but I'm afraid hair tonic won't help you. How'd you lose your hair, anyway? I pulled off a tight hat too quick. Hair tonic. What that guy needs is a mop with a part in it. Play, Phil. We need some changes made played by Phil Harris and his All American Rhythm Kings. American Rhythm Kings meaning a perfect description of this outstanding musical organization and all meaning I take it all back. And now, ladies and gentlemen, I would like to announce that next Sunday our final broadcast of the season will originate from the Naval training stations in San Diego, California. Yes, sir. And after that, fellas, you know, I used to be in the Navy, and this will be a kind of a reunion for me. I thought you were in the Army, Mr. Benny. No, Dennis, the Navy. Don't you remember? He was in that boat with George Washington. Mary, I take a note. I never even knew George Washington. Please believe me. But no kidding, fellas. Sometimes I regret ever having left the Navy. Gee, with that blue suit and my blue eyes, I was really something. You really liked the service, huh, Jack? I certainly did, Don. And I was getting long swell. Who knows if I'd have stuck, I might have been an admiral today. But my chest just covered with metal. How could you hold them up? Mary, I really need a station wagon. Anyway, I was just talking about what might have been. You know, fellas, I often wonder if... I'll take it. Hello? Hello, Mr. Benny, this is Rochester. Oh, what do you want? Boys, if you don't get off the boat out of the house, I'm leaving.  Oh, for goodness sake, you're always worried about Mr. Billingsley. What's the matter now? Well, he's been planning this summer vacation all day long. All right, what's crazy about that? He's out in the swimming pool right now taking swimming lessons. He's learning the Australian crawl. Well, what's crazy about that? He's going to swim to Australia.  Mr. Billingsley is obviously kidding you. He can't be serious about swimming to Australia. Oh, he means it, boys. He told me to meet him at the Dr. San Pedro early tomorrow morning. Oh, Michael, what does he need you for?  Well, use the domestic, not the imported. Now, look, Rochester, don't let him leave the house. It's up to you to humor him. Uh-huh. Explain to him that he's not a boat. That'll be pretty hard to do, boys. He's weighing two hats. Two hats?  Oh, for heaven's sake, well, Rochester, keep him in the backyard by the swimming pool. And whatever you do, don't let him get away. Too late, boys, there he goes. Well, catch him, stop and humor him. Tell him before he leaves, he's got to take on cargo. He's loaded now. Rochester, do something. Lock the front door. I'll be home right after the broadcast. Okay. Goodbye. Goodbye. Oh, say, boss. What? Are you going to broadcast from San Diego next Sunday? Yes. Am I going with you? Yes, Rochester, you're going to drive me down in the Maxwell. What are you laughing at? If that Maxwell can get to San Diego, Mr. Billingsley's a sense-for-stay. I'll go on, Mr. Billingsley. He really thinks he's a boat. I'll have to put a sign on his door, Pier 18. Ladies and gentlemen, we have saved a few minutes of our program this evening to bring you a message from a distinguished guest, one of the nation's outstanding Americans. A call has gone out, a call which concerns the very defense of America, one which affects vitally the morale of the million and a half men already called to the colors. Realizing this serious situation, the President of the United States, the Secretaries of War and of the Navy, and the Federal Security Administration, have called upon every American to support the United Service organizations. Mr. Thomas E. Dewey has been drafted as National Campaign Chairman of the U.S.O. So, ladies and gentlemen, I have the honor and pleasure to present at this time the District Attorney of New York City, Mr. Thomas E. Dewey. Thank you, Jack. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm mighty happy to be with you tonight. Now, Jack, after that fine introduction, I'd like to ask you something. What do you know about the U.S.O.? Well, Mr. Dewey, I think, well, let's see. It's got something to do with soldiers or sailors. You know, if I had stayed in the Navy, I might have been an admiral today, Admiral Benny. I know, Admiral. I heard your program. Oh, no. But, uh... But, uh... But, uh, Jack, I'm afraid you don't know very much about the U.S.O. But them neither do a lot of other Americans. Briefly, the U.S.O. is a joint effort on the part of the YMCA, the YWCA's Salvation Army, National Catholic Community Service, Jewish Welfare Board, and the Traveller's Aid to bring to the soldiers, sailor and marine, recreational and hospitality facilities outside the cantonments. Oh, so the U.S.O. doesn't work in the camps themselves? No, Admiral. I mean, uh, Jack... Yes, I know, I know. Uh... The service clubs will be all located outside the camps and bases. I've just visited in the last two weeks and traveling over 9,000 miles more than 21 of the camps. Imagine some of these places with 30,000 men cooped up in a camp and the nearest town has 1,700 men, women and babies. When they get a day off, the men have no place to go and nothing to do. It's a pretty serious business when we transplant a million and a half men from their homes and then leave them to think we've forgotten all about them. These men must know that 130 million Americans are really behind them. Yes, Mr. Dewey, that's a swell idea. It's going to cost a lot of money, though, isn't it? Not as much as you'd think. With the help of every real American, we can do a grand job for a little more than 10 million dollars. But that won't build recreational centers, will it? No, the federal government is supplying the buildings. It's up to the U.S.O. to get the funds to operate the clubs. Well, how are you going to get this 10 million dollars? In every community in the United States, right now, the U.S.O. is organizing an appeal for funds. On June 3rd, the drive starts with a broadcast from every part of the country to dinners all over the country. Every American, regardless of his views on foreign policies or anything else, can unite on this job and through the U.S.O., get behind his own defenders. Thank you, Jack, and thank you, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you, Tom Dewey. We appreciate your coming to us and telling us about the United Service Organization. I understand that we have contributed over 60 million dollars to help those abroad. And this is the first time we have ever been asked to help our own American boys. I'm sure everyone realizes that taking care of our boys is our job, and I sure you, we Americans, will do it. Here's a grand dessert, ladies and gentlemen, that's not only delightfully unusual, but unusually delightful. A real novelty and a real treat. It's Jello's latest dessert triumph. Jello's charlotte. Something mighty good the whole family will enjoy. It's inexpensive too, and of course, like all desserts you make with Jello, easy to prepare. Simply make up a package of cherry Jello, as you usually do, and chill until slightly thickened. Next, hollow out the centers of a dozen cupcakes, and fill with the slightly thickened Jello. Then chill until firm and serve with a topping of snowy white whipped cream. And just watch the family response to this tempting new dessert surprise. So different and so delicious. Get a package of cherry Jello and make up this well-deserved. You'll find the cherry Jello, like strawberry and raspberry Jello, has a new improved flavor obtained by using a natural flavor base artificially enhanced. And this means a flavor that's better than ever. A rich distinctive goodness that you find only in genuine Jello. So treat yourself to a new treat. Tomorrow night for dinner, serve Jello's charlotte. A luscious combination of dainty cupcakes and shiny ruby red cherry Jello. Last number of the 34th program in the current Jello series, and we will be with you again next Sunday night at the same time, doing our final broadcast from the Naval Training Station in San Diego. And after that, be sure and tune in every Sunday night to our sparkling summer show, Regular Fellows. Oh, Mary. Yes, Jack. I'm all in. Will you say good night for me? Sure. Good night, folks. Thanks. Here's a snappy new dessert, ginger snap ice cream. Where do you buy it? Well, you can't buy it, but you can make it right in your own automatic refrigerator with vanilla Jello freezing mix. Just take a can of vanilla Jello freezing mix and make up a freezing tray full of smooth, luscious homemade vanilla ice cream. Then when you stir it, add 3 fourths of a cup of golden, spicy ginger snaps broken into bits. Making it at home is the easy way and the only way. So get vanilla Jello freezing mix tomorrow. This is the National Broadcasting Company.


I work with a company called Concurve. Concurve is a travel and expense management solution company. It is a 22 years old company that has been recently acquired by SAP. So this expense report is about using closure and production at Concurve. So the problem that we set out to solve at Concurve using closure is to prepare the company for scale. Due to the acquisition, we are about to get about 10 times more traffic and load and to handle that kind of scale and to build the kind of system that we need. We need a very decoupled simple system that can be not built into layers that has a certain degree of resilient sophistication and a sense of harmony in the whole architecture. So the scope that we had when we started building the system was to actually rebuild some of the core components that span across multiple products. So the kinds of things that we are actually writing code to solve are things like authentication, authorization, profile data, identity management and such. And the approach that we took was to build microservices with a shared nothing architecture. So a deployment model sort of has, you know, I mean that allows for multiple versions at the same time. So we have an N plus one versions so that, you know, different lines, different products, they can talk to the different versions at the same time. And these are some of the open standards that we use in our platform. So all of you might be aware of West Bend JSON. JSON web programs are for communicating the claims and 509 certificates are used for authentication between hosts for the sensitive cells, O2 and similar for SSO and the later things. So when we started building the system, it is about, so the story is about one year old.
