Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. I wanna go over with you guys the content and all the issues and all the problems and a mess that we had today with FIFA Ultimate Team regarding week and league rewards, regarding the player picks, regarding this new loading screen that we have and maybe mentioned league SBCs and stuff like that too. Market movements with Thursday flipping as well, I wanna talk through some of those things. But there are some hidden clues in this loading screen right here that I wanna mention to kinda start things off. And of course, as we look at today's content. Now, I tweeted out today that it looks like we're getting loading screens as content now because EA has changed the loading screen for the first two days. They've had a screen four team of the year. They've changed it. So I would maybe presume that we're getting another loading screen today on Friday. That would make sense since they've added two new ones for the first two days. This is also the actual in-game content that we got today. We got a league SBC for the air to visit. Both these guys look pretty solid. So if you're somebody who does BPM, you'd like grinding league SBCs. Unfortunately, the packs for these aren't that great. So it's not really worth grinding through this SBC at least stacking packs for team of the year. But there are some people that are excited for that. And if you are GG, those are some nice cards. And there's a lot of people out there that like to grind league SBCs. And I can respect that. I really can respect that in this game. But I wanna focus more on the loading screen and talk about some of the things that we can see from this loading screen. So I took a screenshot of this right before I started recording. And I wanna show you guys some things. The things where we're gonna get our clues out of this loading screen. And this is kind of the second time they've given us clues inside of a loading screen this year on foot. The first time they gave us clues was during Footmas, right, where they had all the nationalities. They had the make a list and check it twice up in the top right corner. And they had some clues for us about the promo kind of hidden and embedded in the loading screen. And I think we had that again here. We're gonna zoom in and take a look at some of these water bottles that are below the player kits kind of in like the locker room for this team of the year. The first couple that I wanna focus on are on the outsides. It's these four bottles right here. See these bottles that have the flashback on them? They've got the flashback logo right here. There's two of them on this right side. Then you have three water bottles in the middle. And then two other ones over here on the left side with the flashback logo. So to me, that makes it seem like we're getting four flashback SBCs during team of the year. And then the other three water bottles here in the middle have a design on them as well. And I've seen people kind of talking about this on Twitter day not really sure of what this is. This looks kind of tough. It kind of looks like a mix between it could either be the team of the year nominee card design or I also think that this could have something in relation to these player moments cards right here because these player moments cards are kind of like a player moment, like a wheel and time, right? And if you see the little dynamic image that they have for these is kind of like a tape and a rolling tape, right? And if we look back at this, this little thing right here kind of looks like the rolling tape for like a player moments card. So I know that some people were thinking that these water bottles might be pertaining to team of the year nominee cards, possibly being back in packs or possibly SBCs like we had last year with the team of the year nominee bail. We had David Silva. I think there was one more of Versalco, Versalgeco, however you say his name. I honestly think that these this year might be player moments SBCs because this really looks like that tape reel kind of thing to me that we see over here in the D Maria card. So that's kind of my personal feeling about that. But they're starting to give us clues about team of the year in those loading screen tricks which I think is very interesting. And of course that makes me think, okay, there's gonna be SBCs during team of the year. How could we maybe prepare for that? Of course the high ratings are starting to dip down to a more reasonable point as we do near team of the year. I would still like to see them packed more though. They're not that low. The thing it's kind of holding them up. And it's honestly kind of crazy to me because if you look at all the SBCs that are out at the moment, you know, 86s aren't that low, 85s aren't that low, 84s aren't even that low. And that just tells me that people are kind of finishing up these Schweinsteiger SBC like they're doing that one. And that also tells me that they're doing this base icon SBC. They're like, they're shelling out 375K. And this SBC is actually working if the high ratings are still maintaining a decent price. Especially if the 86s and 85s and 84s which you need for those SBCs. Since these are still kind of inflated a little bit, I'm really thinking that people are doing base icons which is sucking coins off the game at the moment at the time. So that SBC is kind of working perfectly according to what EA wants to. But since we've had these things that we've kind of seen here in the loading stream with the flashback and possibly with the player moments, that makes me want to look at SBC investing, stocking your club with fodders. We're definitely gonna be looking at a good time to do that before team of the year starts or maybe right at the start of team of the year trying to get some of these cards in our clubs to either make some coins off of or make SBCs cheaper as the team of the year does come out because it looks like they're gonna be releasing SBCs during this promo, which is what they normally do. But we want to be prepared for those and possibly be able to make some coins on those. So we'll be watching of course the cheapest players by rating page. And some of these guys have kind of stayed decently low. These are kind of up a smidge. After rewards, I think honestly people are going out and doing a few of them. Maybe they finished the messy SBC right before it went away today and stuff like that, I guess. So I would still like to see these cards drop a little bit more as we do head into team of the year though because we are getting very, very close to that timeframe over here. So I'm gonna talk about rewards for a quick second. I actually have my division rivals rewards right here. I'm not gonna open these packs. I got like rank three and division rivals rewards. It's nothing really to look at but I'm gonna save those. I'm gonna, you know, save packs this weekend if I can do an SBC or two, maybe get a couple packs from objectives. Maybe I'll have like 15 to 20 packs as we hit team of the year. And then we will look into opening those packs during team of the year. So if you guys have packs in this weekend, if you saved them, GGCU, if you guys are just waiting for that big time pack opening comfort team of the year, it's almost here. You're gonna be have fun, it's almost here. But regarding weekly rewards today, this was a crazy, crazy mess by EA Sports that started last night even before I put yesterday's video out. People started open their player picks, you guys know, and there were not the red items. So this is kind of how they broke it down today after a long day of no information. They said this, basically they tweeted out three tweets and this was a summary tweet. They said to clarify there are possible three possible player pick scenarios if you opened your player picks, claimed and redeemed, you get the updated player picks and you keep those gold cards, right? Claimed but not redeemed. You keep those not good player picks with the gold cards and you get the updated ones. So you actually get the best use if you claimed. So if you didn't claim your rewards, you won't get the gold player picks. And some people that I've seen on Twitter actually got out of the glitched player picks. They got some decent cards. I don't know if you guys know Buck Army, but he packed Gold Harry Kane, which technically should have been an inform card anyway since he's got an informant team of the week. But if you claimed your rewards before this whole debacle came out today, you actually got a couple extra player picks with the opportunity to get some untradable cards in there that were just gold cards. So that was like the only kind of unfair thing, I guess, if you would like to call this unfair at all. But it's honestly just a huge mess. They then tweeted out later tonight, "'Hey folks, we begun to resolve the player pick rewards "'issue which contained incorrect items.' "'You can expect the correct player pick rewards "'within two days, two days, man, two days, man.' "'It's gonna be literally, you might be finished "'with your next weekend league "'before you get your player picks for the last one, "'which is crazy to think about, right?' "'So that just really sucks.' "'I know a lot of you guys, "'I saw a lot of you guys that got like elite "'for the first time or their best ranking of the year "'for some reason and you're not able to, you know, "'give those cards out of your player picks.' "'And that's just a huge mess.' "'So I apologize for all you guys. "'It sucks that we have to deal with that, "'but it's just kind of the way it is. "'And it's kind of funny to laugh at, too, right?' "'You know, we can expect some mistakes here and there, "'but this week, this week on FIFA "'with all of the EA's mess ups with, you know, "'the wrong rating for Harry Kane and team of the week, "'incorrect words and typos and tweets "'and now this, it's kind of just been one of those "'weeks to forget about for EA sports.'" So that is definitely something that is unfortunate, but something that we saw on the game today. So again, I wanna look at Thursday flips really quick for a little bit. I've talked a lot about Premier League stuff. Last night on the stream, I talked a lot about Premier League stuff for the Thursday flips. There was a lot of stuff, again, in that lower edge of the market that did well today. Again, under like 350,000 coins was really the move for a lot of stuff. Today, I still have a couple of cards that are selling right now into the evening time. And you know, you can always kind of stretch out, especially with the fact that we didn't get a lot of content today. I didn't expect anything. I didn't really see the need to have to sell your cards by Thursday at 6 p.m. U.K. A lot of times when we're not sure if there's an upcoming promo or last year we had a promo on this day and it should be coming this week, that's when we sell before 6 p.m. U.K. on Thursday, but today was not one of those days. So it was a good day for Thursday flipping if you're on the lower end of the market with Informs and stuff. It definitely worked out. I'm trying to get my messy to sell somewhere around 1.2 million coins. I bought that at 1.099 last night. So that'd be a really nice flip overnight if I was able to do that. I'm definitely gonna get that out. And if you guys, again, if you have anything that you need to sell before, before team of the year, whether it be like a prime icon, speaking of prime icons, I wanna look at this guy really quick. Prime Rude Hullet was extinct last night at 9.25 million. Actually, somebody in the YouTube comments, you know who you are. Somebody asked, should I sell my Hullet at 9.25 is extinct? I told him, yes, please do that because this card's gonna get packed a lot as we head into team of the year and he's now down at 8.7 million. So we went from extinct at 9.25 to not selling at 8.7. So I really hope that guy in the comments. If you're you, I really hope that guy stole this Hullet for 9 mil because he sold that at the optimal time. A lot of the prime icons went a little bit lower today. Some of the base, the lower tier icons, they did move up a little bit.  This card's like 230, 240. Now it's all the way up at 260, 270. So that card rose up a decent amount. Again, it was kind of the lower tier stuff that rose up, which is what we've been seeing in the most recent weeks, informed special cards. And one thing that I want to take note of is if you have a little bit of time, like Friday night, Saturday, go ahead and take a look through this team of the week page, which is players drop down on footband, go down to team of the weeks, scroll through this page and look at some of the cards that did really, really well from all the team of the weeks and the special teams of special cards that we have gotten because if you take a mental note of the stuff that did really well, like this Serge Nabri card did fantastic this week. He was in team of the week this week, of course. He was at 58K at one point on Monday. He wrote, he's already 74,000 coins. Even yesterday, Wednesday before rewards, you could have got him at 58, 60,000 coins. And after rewards, the man was up all the way up over 70,000 coins. So that was a great week on League of Rizer, a flipper. But if you just kind of look through these team of the weeks, you know, take 15 to 20 minutes and scroll through some of these team of the week cards and notice the ones that really rose up a lot this weekend, that is really good for just your knowledge and for your knowing of which cards rise. And you should expect to trade with those cards a lot more on subsequent Thursday flipping periods after this one, right? Because it just shows me and it shows you and it just kind of shows that there's demand for that card on this market. Even in a time in the market where a lot of people aren't buying cards to their teams, this market is low right now. This market is very low, not a lot of coins because people are expecting a huge promo, one of the biggest promos of the year. This Theo Hernandez card, 84 rated, 77,000 coins before rewards, what happens after rewards? The man goes from like 77 to 80K all the way over 90,000 coins raised at right now. So that's a really nice week on League of Rizer. Again, if you have some time, scroll through these team of the weeks, find the ones, find the special cards that had the best return on investment, kind of make a mental note of that, right? Jot down those cards and then you can refer back to those for possible Thursday flipping opportunities in the future. So that's something that I wanted to note with you guys as well. And again, if you have anything, I mentioned this a little bit earlier, I started to talk about it, but if you have anything that you need to get out of your club this weekend that you think is gonna drop down a lot, whatever that card may be, this is your opportunity to sell it especially. You know, a lot of people think that some of these cards are gonna dip down a bunch in price. You know, like your Mbappe, your Neymar, some of those guys, there's a lot of people in this game right now that think that they are going to drop in price a lot. I'm still a little bit unsure on how I feel about some of that stuff.  How much is Neymar? How much is Neymar? Wow, Neymar is 700K. Okay, that tells me this is gonna go a decent bit lower then because he was 700K before rewards, right? And this guy last week was out of packs and he was 650,000 coins at one point in the week and link sell off. So with this not selling at 700K right now, I would do, I do think there's a possibility that this again goes to 650 in the week and link sell off this weekend. So keep your eyes on like a Neymar and Mbappe type of situation. They could get as low as they did last weekend. I do think that seems more of a possibility now than I thought it was before. I honestly thought that maybe the lowest prices we were gonna see on these two cards specifically was gonna be last week, but it looks like as of right now that they could go lower. So maybe you see Mbappe down like 640, 630. That would be super duper low for his card. Maybe even closer to 600K flat if it gets really crazy out there. But that's gonna be another chance for you guys to pick up on some of those cards if you want them for post team of the year because Mbappe for sure, I would expect him to go out of packs. Neymar is kind of on the edge iffy situation. Maybe he gets into like a 12th of man kind of thing this year. Maybe they do something different with team of the year, of course. We've thought about that, but that's kind of one of the risks you run, but there's so many people that wanna buy the meta cards like that. The meta cards like Messi, like Ronaldo, the fact that these cards are so low is honestly really crazy as well. So what's Messi at right now? 950, 930. Okay, so he's like 930K-ish, yeah? Right around 930K, 935, I saw that one, yeah. So like 934,000 coins for Messi. I do think you could find that at around 900K with the Play of the Month SBC being gone and new Play of the Months voting out for La Liga. You know, that's possibly something you could see rise a little bit this week, this Messi cards. Messi cards all around you could see rise. It just depends on prices of team of the years and how the pack weight is and some of that stuff as well. I wanna end the video today. Just kind of a general market talk video. Again, these videos are just kind of like whatever happens on the market for the day, right? Because we're just kind of monitoring the market right now, talking about things in the market as we near team of the year and the ton of the market movements that are gonna happen with that promotion. But right now it's just kind of in like that, you know, waiting period. We're not exactly there yet. So we're still kind of just waiting for all that to come. But one last thing that I wanna talk about is team of the year upgrade packs and possibly getting your club ready for some of those. And this is what I wanna kind of present an idea to you guys. This is something that I did last year during team of the season. I know a lot of people did as well. And this is just something that you can do right now if you want to. I just bid 700 on that, I didn't want to. I wanna bid 650. But this weekend, maybe at late at night when there's not a lot of people looking at the market, if you want to, this is something that's really up to you. If you're somebody who's gonna do a lot of upgrade packs during team of the year, something that you could do to get a head start either at the beginning of team of the year during lighting rounds or even beforehand is start to stock your club with rare golds, right? Because if they put out upgrade pack SBCs, we're talking the Premier League upgrades, Premier League premium upgrades. I do think they're gonna drop some sort of SBC and people are gonna hit those upgrades with team of the year cards being in packs.  And I mean, I'm probably gonna be doing a million, maybe even two million coins worth, so about half my total coin value on upgrade packs. This is something that you can kinda consider stocking your club, at least going through the major leagues, going through the Prem, going through La Liga, going through Bundesliga possibly, even League One, especially League One with the very few amount of rare cards that it has in that league and just stocking your club with those, I think is a good shout. Trying to get them for like, you know, anything that's an under 82 rated card, get it for 650 or 700 coins. And then if it's an 82, maybe you spend 750 or whatever. But doing a club stock on those cards can save you a lot of coins when those SBCs come out and all gold rares go up like one K. So that could save you some coins if you go ahead and do that beforehand. And if you're really, really ballsy, I was kinda thinking about this tonight. I was talking to another guy in the FIFA community about this, would it be worth it to go unassigned on these cards for when they do put the upgraded SBCs out? Because if you think about it this way, if you buy like 1,000 cards at 750,000 coins, and that's, so if you buy 1,000 of the rare gold cards at 750 coins, or if you buy, yeah, if you buy 1,000 of them at that price, instead of buying 1,000 of them at one K, which is what they could very easily rise to.  So if you think about it that way, I'm kind of tempted to do that. I'm gonna think about it a little bit more over this weekend.  But that is something that either from a trading aspect, if you wanna try to make coins off of that, or if you wanted to get ready for a team of your upgrade packs, that's something you can kind of think about and put in the back of your mind as well. But a club stock would definitely be something I would recommend. Club stock with some of those discard gold cards from the major leagues. If they do put out upgrade packs, which I do think they will, you probably will see some of those cards rise up. Like boom, I just got Milovits right there, 700 coins. I'm gonna chuck that in the club. He's probably gonna get put into some sort of SBC.  Now, of course, you're banking on EA Sports and you're relying on EA to put out a decent upgrade pack SBC, which we don't like to rely on EA Sports for a lot of things, especially in terms of content and SBCs, but they do upgrade packs every year for this promo. So I would say that it's very, very likely that they come out and they will probably require some rare gold cards. So that's just something I was thinking about towards the end of video that I wanted to share with you guys. But yeah, crazy day on the market. Again, each day by day, we're getting into closer and closer into team of the year. More and more stuff is being revealed about that promotion with the loading screen. So keep an eye out for today's loading screen. Could be something to keep an eye on as well. And maybe we've learned some more about the promotion through that loading screen. If you enjoyed today's video, smash the thumbs up on it. Comment down below if you have any questions. And of course, subscribe to the channel if you're new. It's been Nate, the Foot Accountant.

I go from one to to 80 like that Leals, all right y'all let that Absorb in the skin and then we're gonna finish off with my vitamin c and my moisturizer I love applying my moisturizer y'all so forehead I take my glasses off for this one because I try to get as close to the under eye as I can I do have under eye Uh I don't know what you call it from the good molecules They're patches and I have other stuff in there under under my eye, but I don't know what's wrong We have bigger since I wear glasses. You really can't see it kind of masses my under eye But I will probably focus on those on that area here um Probably later on this year focusing on my under eye more because I do have darkness All right, y'all now going in with the moisturizer that I showed earlier in the video just a little bit Patience into my I think it looks better and brighter today earlier in the vlog was just four days ago. Honestly, was it a four? Yeah, about four or five days ago. I was starting to break out. Um, yeah, definitely looks better today You can see a close-up of what my skin looks like Got some texture going on there, but it's okay. That's you know, my it was breaking. I you see that right there Yeah, it's clearing up now. So that is it you guys. This is what I do Every day again, I don't do all the steps every day, but every day I make sure my face is clint I make sure weekly that I'm exfoliating. I'm toning daily and I use at least two to three serums Um every day and yeah, that's it you guys. Thank you so much for watching. Take care. Bye

Now, as I'm sure you can see here, is actually a lot of those studies are from the whole of the Holocene and don't really go back beyond the early Holocene back into the late Pleistocene. So when we sort of began to look at these causes, of course, I wanted to split them up into having short term names, which are relatively achievable, but also equally achievable without lots of funding. So, first and foremost, is that do these segments actually have a record? Do we can we see there's dramatic change in some of these segments? Because we don't, there's not much else we can do that. And as I'm sure all of you are aware, is one of the major outputs from the lost vintage project itself was the tsunami core, which is L1A, where there was multi proxy investigations of this core to identify sort of the changing environments at the time. So, in addition to those, is that we also apply rock magnetic mineral studies there to investigate how the management minerals changed through the core. And with every single sample that's been taken, bulk magnetic susceptibility is a really useful measuring device, which gives you lots of data and it's fairly rapid, which means you can, and from that data, you can infer the abundance of magnetic minerals in the cores, which is also a really useful thing to do as well. And then the longer term aims beyond the scope of here and now is that we're going to combine the high resolution preliminary data with the independent dating, so the radiocarbon dating and the OSI you've just heard about, because that's really key, because that tells us, obviously the time spans of what we're looking at for the changes of the earth's field and through these cores. And then someone, someone far more intelligent than myself will be able to then model the behaviour of the chimney to fill from the late press by sitting into the old Holocene, and then bringing it back to the archaeology and what we can sort of, what we can bring back to the table in terms of understanding these landscapes is to do a large scale rock mag study to interpret, to better interpret the deposition of environments and things like that. So, as you can see here, these are the samples we have obtained across a number of sampling trips down to Lempadir. So, the first one, one A is the, is the, is the tsunami core, and that is the only core that's received the most amount of analysis. That's pretty much for analysis through those cores. Two and nineteen were a part of a master's project, which were, that was mainly geared towards understanding which authorities responded best to the preliminary methods we apply and then all of the material is, is waiting and so ready to be analysed. And as you'll see as we go through. So, first, a lot of these cores are coming from the Southern River Valley. Sadly, the cores from the further north were shorter core lengths, which are not as useful for paving registers because we want to look at long trends, we want to be able to have a wise long span of core. And what was useful is that the earlier sampling trips and the earlier analysis then informed on further sampling and sort of foster target in the future, which we'll have here down here. The methodology that we apply is a very standard one in periomagnetism and archaeomagnetism whereby you need to understand the demagnetisation behaviour of your samples to be able to isolate the record of the remnants, which is the directional part of the earth magnitude in the past. So, you always do a subset, which is where we've done our life to go to with a lot of the cores first, and then a false body where you apply a number of demagnetisation steps, which can pick out the single stable component, which represents the field at the time of deposition of that. And then before you can do, before you can apply any of the rock mag is you need to have done all that. So, the rock, because the rock mag applies new fields to your samples. So, if you do that, you ruin your samples, it's not very good. So, the master's project that was done by Elizabeth Topping, she analysed over 100 samples and what she was able to deduce was that, apart from some of the more nuanced differences, was that the ideal behaviour here, and I'm going to what this plot actually means or looks like, but actually a single stable component is represented by a straight line. And as you can see here, the final laminated silty clays are ideal. They're perfect, whereas if you're analysing some frigopit, you end up with a lot more complex behaviour, and that's, that's because it doesn't generally preserve a record from the time of deposition. So, if we look at the inclination values from core 1a. Now, because these cores were taken without paying attention in mind is that you've lost the definition orientation. So you can only have the relative amount of that, whereas you get the absolute inclination values. And what's brilliant on what these, what these measurements have shown is they are geomaintyd possible and they match some of the trends already seen in the Windermere core, which is this back plot you have here. And then before the Sianami is you have again a change in the geometry field going through further back. It's quite interesting to see, to see the chronology of 1a before. So, because that's what's key here is, is that you obviously this here, this plot here infers a linear sort of sedimentary rate, whereas what you might end up happening happening is contraction and expanding of obviously these, these points as you go down. So it's independent dating is key if we're going to establish what the geometry field has been doing in the past at these points. So the, looking at the rock magnitude proxies from, from core 1a is that magnetically speaking, we were able to identify four sort of differing magnetic behaviours of the minerals that were present in the core. So the first one is, is above the tsunami layer and represents a relatively harder magnetite type behaviour, which could, and it's marine, mainly input there. And then you've got this very different layer of which is the tsunami deposit. And again, this, what this shows from the magnetics point of view is you've got new material being brought in and, and being deposited here, which is definitely different to what, what was lying beneath in the sediments beneath this. Interestingly, you've got a slight difference for the, what's known as the soft component, which is the waterflying magnetite just at this boundary here. You'll see more later on the next talk by Alex, where he goes into the geochemistry a bit more about what actually looks like. We're going to bring in an elemental analysis. So if we look at the bulk magnetic susceptibility, which is this really easily measured parameter where you're looking at the total amount of magnetisable minerals within the sample, is you can see across these cores here is that these aren't actually correlated with each other. Just point that out. These are all relative to the core. But you can see that there are some subtle differences, but also some fairly large differences as you go down the core. Now, things where you've got really low measurements are generally where you've got really high organic content. Whereas with the, with the higher peaks as this represents a higher amount of magnetic minerals that are measurable. And what these could be indicative of when people have published in the past with additional rock-magnetic parameters added into it, is that they could be indicative of large-scale rainfall events or mass floodings, which are washing terry genes material from the surrounding landscape into that marine system. And that's, it could be useful for things like correlation between cores, providing, of course, the cores are from localised vicinity where you've got similar by the patterns, et cetera. And then if you go to the, some of the more recent cores I've, I've sampled now, paleomagneticistically speaking, when we are looking for suitable material for paleomagnetic studies, is you want low energy environments. So you want, so you want it to be a nice, easy sort of environment for the sediment to, to settle into that, into that detractable remnant magnetisation. And without any sort of external tidal influences, et cetera, or equally large-scale flooding, which might upset the sedimentary interface as those particles are settling. So apart from the large, what could be equally a perisol or again, a large scale rainfall event is these cores are relatively calm, which is calm. These sediments have been settled in relatively low energy environments, which could be ideal for paleomagnetic studies. Obviously time will tell with us, but we'll see. So taking it forward is that these, this preliminary study has basically demonstrated that we can isolate circulation from the cores we've looked at so far. And that further material from these cores should, should be really useful for elucidating this, this behaviour of the field in the past. And crucially, sort of looking, sort of not just locally, but also on the regional and global scales of defining human field change in the past is a useful study alongside the rock mining measurements, which can add to the proxy analysis and for deposition environments. And as you'll see in the next talk, that the combined, the mine has succeeded there too, alongside the geochemistry and future plans. Of course, money is always important with these things. As I'm very likely been funding for a postdoc position at Lund University, where they do have specialist paleomagnetic equipment for the analysis of sediments, which will help us understand some of those long term names. And some of the, some from my offside of it, our wonderful placement students and MSc student and some really valuable sources of advice when I've been in a tricky corner. And other than that, the obviously just amazing team to be a part of. So, thank you. Thank you all for listening. Thank you, Sam, very much. So if you have any questions on paleomagnetism for Sam or Catherine, she's there in the background too. Please put it through. OK, Michael Grant writes, your inclination record appears to nicely match the reference curves if the record is rotated. However, how good a match was the paleo intensity record, which is core orientation depend independent. Also, do you feel lock in latency is minimal in this record? Good question. So as of yet, we actually haven't done an RPI for this for the for that core because there's only 25 cent samples from that entire core. And certainly with the future course, the core samples I've taken, that'll be an interesting one to look at time to looking at the other records there. Yeah, yeah, definitely, definitely want to look at and I do believe that the latency is minimal in some of these cores, especially in those low energy environment ones that I've picked up towards the end of the talk. OK. And just waiting to see if anything comes through. Give the attendees a chance to we have a minute, we have a minute or two, we're a little bit ahead of the game. Good. Makes a nice change in these COVID. You're always taught in these situations to wait and I'm comfortably long just to let the really shy ones come through. Well, luckily, I'm sharing an office with Mohammed and Phil. Of us should make should make things easy. OK, so if there aren't any more questions coming through, Alex needs more time, so that's good. Is is Alex still writing his presentation? No, no, it's more time, more time to talk. Oh, I see. That's good. I have known people not in this group. They talk at literally two minutes before they're going to give it. OK. Right. Richard asks, can you say anything about the rates of change you're seeing? That will come in from the independent dating. Essentially. So we'll also bring in from the geochemistry, whether we know there's any hiatus in the sedimentary record. It'll all be because of when we have all the data together, that will be really useful to look at and that will really help aid, sort of like whether we can, if we need to sort of expand a certain area by looking at or equally understand that there's a very short period of sedimentary position, if we're going to be along. OK, that's great. Well, thanks very much, Sam.


What is an empath?  And in today's video, I'm going to share with you guys exactly what it means and give you five little ways to see if maybe you're one too. If you're new here, I'm Sarah and I help teach people to find inner happiness through fitness and spirituality. And today I'm going to clear up what an empath is on a very basic level so that you can figure out if you're one too. So obviously comes from the word empathy. Empathy is different from sympathy. I think it's important to understand the distinction of the two. Sympathy is when you understand someone else's hurt or someone else's pain, but it's kind of like from the outside. Like you understand where they're coming from but that's kind of where an empathy on the other hand is a few steps deeper. It's where you actually feel that person's feelings their hurt or their pain within yourself as if you are them in their position. So we're going to nerd out for a few seconds here. There's a group of brain cells called mirror neurons. We all have them. However, empaths have mirror neurons that are hypersensitive. And basically what mirror neurons are is they connect with other people's mirror neurons and they are a pathway to what that person is feeling and what their emotions are. Which means that empaths will further soak in other people's feelings no matter if they're positive or negative. Think of an empath like an emotional sponge absorbing all the emotions of everyone around them. Sounds fun, right? Often empaths can't even tell where someone else's emotions end and where theirs begin. And without having the awareness that you are picking up those feelings from other people there's no way to separate them. And if you're an empath and you don't know it like I didn't for so many freaking years you may be carrying around emotions that aren't even yours and you don't even know. There are so, so many signs that you could be an empath. And I'm just going to give you five of them for now but there are just so many more. I'm going to lay out some of those with you and also my experience with them. So the first is the most obvious and that is that you have a lot of empathy. It's kind of a joke among the people that are closest to me in my personal life that I cry pretty much every day. And it's not always bad tears. I mean, sometimes I can be watching a movie, you know, some romcom where the couple has their big fight and then they make their way back to each other and I can feel the happiness through them and it makes me cry. Empaths tend to be very emotional beings or maybe a friend lost a pet and even though I wasn't close to that pet, I can literally feel their pain and therefore alignment within feeling that pain in myself as well. Another example that happens to me all the freaking time is when I'm listening to music. I always thought when I was younger and I didn't know why now I do, that I've always loved to sing, I'm not good at it, but I always thought when I was younger, there's no way I could ever even try to pursue being an artist in that sense, a musical artist, because half the time I can't get through a song without just freaking sobbing. It could be a happy song, but usually it's a sad song or a song where you can just feel the emotions of that artist. Okay, the second sign that you might be an empath is subscribing to my channel. No, I'm kidding, but you should do that. If you have just out of this world fantastic intuition and gut feelings, we all have them. We all have intuition, we all have the gut feelings, but empaths tend to have almost like a certain knowing. It's kind of beyond intuition and beyond having those gut feelings, especially once you start to train yourself to really listen to them, it's kind of crazy. It's like having a knowing about something without the evidence of that information being there, but honestly, a lot of times later on that evidence will pop up and reconfirm what you were thinking or what your gut and your intuition was telling you anyway. I have actually a really, really good example for this. My mom's an attorney and years ago she had this really great friend who was also an attorney and it was while I was in college, so I was about three, three and a half hours away from home so I wasn't home all that often and this friend of my mom's became very close with my parents and both my brothers. Everyone just absolutely loved this woman. She ended up getting cancer, she's fine. So my mom was basically going to temporarily take over her business while she was going through chemo and all of that, you know, really shitty stuff. So I come home from college while this is kind of all happening and I'm super excited to meet her. I knew that even if my younger brothers liked this woman that it was a shoe and I heard so many good things about her I couldn't wait to finally meet, you know, this mystery friend. So I meet her instantly. I just had a bad gut feeling. I, for no reason, it seemed totally illogical, totally unreasonable, did not like this woman. I did not like her.  There's something off about you.  She came after my mom for absolutely no reason. She tried to take down our family. She, it was just an awful human being, terrible. And that's kind of what I'm talking about where the evidence often shows up later on to confirm whatever that intuitive feeling that you had was. The third sign would be that it's hard for you not to care. It's hard for you to not care when someone's suffering, even if it's someone that did you wrong. I have gone through that so many times and I think that that's a huge reason why so many empaths end up in these toxic and abusive relationships, often with narcissists. And that's something I went through over and over again, it was like this cycle that I couldn't get out of because even though these men and these boyfriends were treating me like shit, I cared. I wanted to fix them, I wanted to make them feel better, I wanted to make them happy. Very weird, very weird dynamic. An example of this would be, I was dating this guy in college my sophomore year. It was summertime, we were still together but we were a few hours apart, three or four hours, we lived in different states. Beginning in the summer, I was living at the beach, working down there with my friend and he and some of his buddies just show up to surprise me. You could imagine how excited I was. It was such a great surprise, I was so excited to see him and long story short, he ended up meeting these other younger girls while we were down at the beach. I don't know where I was if I was working or I don't know what I was doing but I ended up going to this party and came back in the middle of the night, we were all still up and he had hickeys all over his neck, he cheated on me and it was awful and it wasn't the first time either but that doesn't really matter in this story. So after the big fallout, after the excuses came out, whatever, I was obviously done. Everyone went to sleep, I was so upset, I couldn't sleep, you know and I went into the room that we had been sharing and I saw that he was just laying there on top of the covers and even though he had just ripped my heart out, stomped on it, punched it, just ripped it apart, I felt bad that he was laying there without a blanket and I couldn't not care and I found myself covering him up with a blanket when he had just come home an hour or two ago after cheating on me. It makes no logical sense but that's the kind of depth and care that empaths tend to have and it's not always fun, it's not. The fourth sign that you could be an empath is liking this video. No, I'm just kidding. If people, but do it. If all your life, people have come to you for advice. Even if you don't know them very well, I find that this happens to me all the time with my current job. I go to someone's house, I'm looking at their properties, I'm looking at what renovations need to be done, how can we flip it, how can we make a profit on this property and also help these people out and there's been times where I've sat there with my client sobbing, sobbing at their story and what they're opening up to me about. There's times where after I leave a house and I'm really thinking about the experience I just had and the hardship that whoever I just met with is going through and I'm driving and sobbing and feeling bad but that's because they feel comfortable opening up to me. They feel comfortable knowing that I just have that vibe or that aura about me plus empaths are typically pretty good listeners and because going back to number three that we care so much, that vibe, that aura emits and they can feel within their mirror neurons that we do care and that we are listening and Paz can also pick up the slightest change of voice, the most subtle little physical cues and instantly kind of know something just shifted within the other person's thoughts or feelings. Sometimes it almost kind of feels like mind reading except like you're obviously not sitting there like I am reading your thoughts right now like some cartoon. It's just that you know something shifted. You just don't know what. And the fifth reason I'm gonna lay out for you guys today and again there are so many other signs that you could be an empath is that you can be easily fatigued and need a lot of recharge time. This was something I didn't even know I needed until I came to the conclusion that I was an am and empath and now I literally don't even know how I went my entire life almost without having to alone time and having this recharge time. I do not understand it because now I have become such a homebody. I have come to really, really love being by myself and doing things by myself and being alone. And the reason is is because when we're as human beings interacting with so many people on a daily basis as an empath, you're absorbing and absorbing and absorbing all these people's emotions and feelings, positive, negative thoughts and it's whack sometimes. I do think it's a gift but it's also a lot. It's a lot to deal with. It's very overwhelming. It makes us feel super fatigued, super tired very often. And that's why self care for empaths, ooh, maybe that will be a video I do soon.  It's so necessary and it's so needed because absorbing these emotions and being an empath, it's not really something that can be turned off. It's really just something that can be managed. I mean, even though I have a lot of energy, I would say that I come off and I feel like people look at me as that I have so much more energy than the average person and I would kind of agree with that. I think that I'm a very high energy person but weirdly enough, simultaneously, I almost always feel tired.  I feel tired right now filming this video. It's a very odd thing. Guys, we will get so much deeper into empaths and highly sensitive people and how to manage it and how to really enjoy the gift that it really is and we will get so deep into this in videos to come. But I just wanted to give you guys a very, very basic outline and understanding of what exactly I mean when I mention here and there that I'm an empath and why that is so impactful in my life and why it could be also on yours if you are one or if you know one. So after I was in this video, do you think you're an empath or is someone that you know one that you were like thinking of the entire time I was talking through this video? Let me know in the comments below. I love you guys so much. Please don't forget to subscribe and like this video if you found it helpful or entertaining and love you guys so much and don't forget, be limitlessly yourself.


Well hello my friends and welcome to the vlog. I did not vlog yesterday because I basically slept all day yesterday. I know. Crazy, right? But I think my body's like regulated back into itself. I think, I don't know. But this whole like, not sleeping for two weeks, not good. We're moving forward, we're moving forward. But anyway, I am heading over to my parents house because my aunt is leaving tomorrow and we're having some dinner together. And yes, I just took a shower. Don't judge, okay? Okay, so I've got Doyle's treat for his kennel time. So let's see if we can go find him. I think he's in his kennel. I don't really know though. Sometimes he thinks his kennel is the hallway and it's clearly not. There he is. I can see him. Kennel time for the kennel boy. There you go buddy. I will see you in a couple hours. Okay? Okay. Anyway, okay, so Doyle is set with his kennel time. So he is good to go. And yes, I leave a light on for him. Yes, I do, I do.  And he's been quite tired since he was like eight weeks old. So he doesn't mind being in there. Plus I have a lot of stairs and he has seizures sometimes and I don't want him falling down the stairs and me not being there. Little problem there. All right, so I got my bag, I got my keys. Then I am ready to go. Oh, and by the way, I haven't fixed my garage door opener yet. But one of these days, I'll fix it. So I have a funny story for you guys. I just got gas at the gas station. But I did go in because I needed some Coca-Cola and I only had like one can left. So I figured, oh, I'm at the, I'm at the convenience store. I might as well get it. And it's like no, no real reason to go to the actual grocery store to buy like one thing.    Why not? You know, try it out. And the power ball is at $90 million. So I figured why not just try my hand, right? The girl working the, um, the register. She's actually younger than I am. She's 20, she told me. But she's like, yeah, can I see your ID? And I was like, for what? She's like, yeah, you look really young, um, for the, for the power ball ticket. And I'm like, oh, okay. She's like, yeah, you look kind of young. I'm like, all right. I'm like, well, then she scans my ID.  I'm like, yeah. I'm like, yeah, the whole no wearing makeup.  And she's like, oh, well, that just happens. I'm like, I know. But I'm like, yeah, well, I'd rather have people say that I look younger than that I look really rough, that I'm like, look older than I really am or something. And she said, yeah, I got the same problem too. People think I'm like 15 or 16 and I'm like, almost 21. I'm like, hey, it's a better, better position to be in that than the other way around because I know there's other people in the world that are in the other way around situations. So we were kind of commiserating over looking younger. But I just thought that was hilarious that I got carted because she thought I might have been younger than 18 because that's what the age limit is here to play the lottery. But now I'm gonna take my winning ticket home because you never know. Oh, and before all my Dave Ramsey people say, don't buy a lottery ticket, I maybe spend like 20 bucks a year on gambling. So I'm pretty sure it fits into my budget. I think it's okay because a lottery ticket's $2 and I had $2 in cash on me. So I figured I'm gonna get one ticket and see what happens. So yeah, but I don't go crazy with a lottery stuff or gambling at all. So I think it's gonna be all right. But okay, now I'm gonna go home and do some things and then I'll talk to you in a little bit. So I am back home. It's been a few hours since I checked in. But all the oil's up here. Hi, Doyle. What are you doing, buddy?  Hi, buddy boy. Hi, buddy boy. Okay. So what I am going to do now is I'm gonna get ready for bed. But ooh, harsh lighting. I have, in the past, we're going to the bathroom together. I have, in the past, shown you guys kind of like my night time routine and y'all seem to really like it, so I figured I'd show you again. But I'm gonna try and do a mask because I want to get rid of this chin situation. Yeah, and this dark spot right here. I can't really see it very well on camera right now. But that's the spot that came up in end of April, right before I left for Go Wild. So it stays, like, dark on my skin for a long time. Thank you, Acne Gods. Thank you. So yeah, but I am going to pick out some things and do a mask. I got my washing cloth here. But I'll show you what I'm using and all that good stuff too. But yeah, I figured I would share because y'all seem to like that. And I haven't done one of these things in, like, a long time. And this is all, like, my mask-y things, but I don't use that often. I need to, like, start using them, you know? It's like, use what you have, Emily. Use what you have. So let me prop you guys up and then I'll be right back. Whoa. Alright, so here we go. I know this is, like, really harsh lighting, but this is, like, this is all I got, guys. Sorry. So first things first, I'm gonna put the hair up. Oh, man. Like, really, really tired. I feel like I haven't, like, completely, I don't know, just, like, recuperated maybe from the whole traveling situation. I don't know. Maybe I have and I'm just, like, really lazy. I don't know. But whatever. So at the end of the night, I like to put my hair up. Like, I'm a very tippy top of my head. Because the idea is I'm gonna sleep on the back of my head and I don't want any, like, bumps and lumps and things. So yeah. But a lot's what I do and I'll do it a lot in diet. First off, I'm gonna use a cleanser. I have been using this Purity Cleanser from Philosophy. If I can find any of these things, I'll link them down below for you guys if you're interested. If you don't want to spend this much money. The other thing I really like is the Cetaphil. I think that's how you say it. But I get the one, let's see, I'll show you. I'll show you which one I like the best. Um, this one for the, this is the Daily Facial Cleanser, the normal oily skin. There is another one out there, but I don't like the way it feels with the Clarisonic. It's, like, it's, like, too lotion-y. So it, like, coats the bristles really funny on the Clarisonic. And I do not like that. So, but this is actually what's in my shower right now. So, when I run out of this, I'll probably just go back to this because I bought this quite a while ago. And to be honest, it's not, like, that amazing to buy more of this when it's, like, way more expensive than this guy right here. So, if y'all have been watching my channel for a long time, you know I have super oily skin because, you know, breakouts and stuff. And, um, yeah, I don't know, I just have really oily skin. So there's just, like, nothing I can do about it. And I have a Clarisonic. This is the Mia 3, I believe, before. Whoops. I think I had the Mia 2 before and then it, like, broke. Oops. It just, like, stopped charging. So, um, even though I would have it hooked up, it would just stop charging so I had to get a new one. So, I got my Mia 3 here and I got the white. I know there's tons of different colors you can get. I went for the white because I am who I am. Yeah. So, um, let me get cleansed and then I'll be right back. This is me cleansing the skin. This thing works really, really well. Um, but, pro tip, if you start using this thing, um, you will break out. Just letting you know. And the reason you start breaking out is because this, like, Sonic... At least what I've read, okay, so don't, like, don't quote me on this. But I'm pretty sure it's because the Sonic vibrations, um, end up kind of releasing some of the acne that's, like, already kind of in your skin. And it just, you know, lets it come to the surface. So, when I first started using this many, many years ago, the Clarisonic System, um, I broke out for a couple of weeks and nothing was bad about it. It was just, like, releasing all the, like, toxins in my face. Kind of like when you get a massage. It's kind of, like, the idea. Let me get all the soap off of here and off of my face and I'll be right back. Alright, so now I am all clean in the face. Not in the mind. Okay. What mask should we do? Okay, I think I'm gonna use this one. I've never used this one before, but it's the Basha... Basha? I don't know how to say it. Um, it's the Charcoal Pour Pudding Intense Wash Off Treatment. So this is kind of what it looks like.  It's gonna be probably, like, a more of a gray color on my face. Um, I do have some black masks and things like that in there, which are more of liddy toxifying, purifying things, but I figured, let's try this. I did just get this at Sephora quite a while ago.  So I have, like, a black mask. And then I also have, let's see, this is a, like, primer. So I don't know. It's just, like, in my little thing over here. But this tells me it's a two-part pour pudding powered by black and white charcoal. Minimizes the appearance of pores while balancing skin to use scoop onto face and blend together to distribute thin layer all over targeted areas as needed. Leave on for 15 to 20 minutes and then rinse off with warm water. So I will do that. And, ugh, never opened this before. Oh, there's, like, a little sealer guy. Let's see. Definitely black and white, and it's, like, ah! Okay. Well, there's just, like, a little bit of moisture on the top. So let's just do this together. And if, um, yeah. Ooh, fancy. Basically, my whole face is oily and problematic, so I'm just gonna do my whole face. So let's speed this thing up. Ooh. I matched my shirt. And the forehead. Like, up here. And now it's really hard to see. Maybe not in this light, because this light's really bad. I've got, like, all these little dots that have just been bubbling up to the surface ever since I got back from Alaska. I think it's because of traveling and whatnot, but it's just frustrating.  So I'm all done with this bad boy. I'm gonna put my little topper back on to kind of keep the moisture inside. So I'm gonna leave this on for 15 to 20 minutes, and I will be back in 15 to 20 minutes. So I will see y'all then. Okay, so I'm back, and it's been 20 minutes.  But I think I just, like, pile it down a little bit thicker in some areas. So let me wash this off, and then I'll go through what I normally do to go to bed. I gotta say, this mask is, like, very, like, squeaky clean feeling, which I really enjoy. All right, some of my hair is looking really crazy, but that's all right. I don't do a mask every night, clearly, because I did, and probably have, like, better skin, but whatever. Or maybe worse, I have no idea how it works. But I try to do a mask, like, at least a couple times a month. Ideally, I'd love to do a mask, like, at least once a week, like, like, a clay mask, but I don't get to it, so I won't look over. So I'm gonna use this. Um, I have a little cotton pad here, and I'm using the Body Shop Tea Tree Toner, like this.  What I like to do is, if I don't have another vacation planned in the next, I don't know, three or four months, I like to use up what's in the, you know, bottles, because I don't want it to sit for too long, and then, like, the product to kind of turn, you know? So I'm using this up right now, but I do have enough toner in my other little bottle there. And I just use these, like, really basic cotton rounds from, I don't know, I think I got these at Target, maybe? It's gonna be a really long video. Oh, goodness.  I actually get, like, behind my ears.  I think it's just because of, like, sweating and stuff. I don't know, but I don't like it. And even though I'm not wearing any eye makeup and haven't for a long time, I still kind of go over my eyelids and my eyebrows because they're freaking oily. So, yeah, that's that. And let me pull out the rest of my stuff. I've got this also from the body shop. This is the Tea Tree Blemish Fade Night Lotion. So I usually take two pumps of this. Tends to cover all the things, or cover my entire face. Usually if I'm wearing a tank top, I'll go, like, down my neck, but I'm wearing a t-shirt today, so that's all right.  Like, a little acne situation. And then tonight I'm going to do, like, moisturizing mask thing. It's, like, a leave-on mask. And this is from Karez. If I don't use this, I have a couple of other things that I use, but I really do, like, this L'Oreal Revital Lift. It's, like, I think it's, like, the Age Perfect. It's a night cream. It's a little bit thicker. It's a little bit darker today as well. I don't know, I just really like it. And this is just more, like, super, super hydrating and it smells amazing. And I use it pretty sparingly because it's kind of spendy. But this is the, let me say, Karez Wild Rose. It's a sleeping mask. Sleeping facial. Brightening sleeping facial. And it does really brighten your skin quite a bit. I really like it.  That's kind of exciting.   What's going on? So, yeah. But even though I have really oily skin, this does not clog my pores. And I've been using this stuff for a few years. I mean, I've had this jar for not that long, a few months. But I really, really like it. But definitely a nighttime thing because it stays kind of hydrating on your skin. And when you use the Clarisonic, I feel like this kind of stuff that's super hydrating just kind of, like, sucks it in a little bit more. I don't know if that makes any sense to you guys.  I just enjoy it sometimes. Alright, so that's all on my face. So we're good to go there. I'm going to use a wrinkle cream because I'm, like, 37. So it's time for wrinkle cream. Oh, this is the Rock Retinol Correction Deep Wrinkle Night Cream. Looks like this. I think I got this at, like, I don't know, like, Walgreens or CVS. I tend to just put a little bit, like, a little dab over here. And then I kind of just, like, work it in. I'm sure the beauty community is cringing that I'm, like, dragging, but, like, literally it's just gliding on my skin. And then I like to put a little bit up here and then, like, right over here. Because I feel like it's, like, my eyes get really kind of, not wrinkly right here, but, I don't know, prevention, right? Like, this is basically, like, prevention. Like, it's not gonna, I don't know, I don't feel like this is gonna do anything to, like, the wrinkles I may or may not already have. But, I don't know, I just like to do that. And then, another place I like to put this, which is kind of a little, I don't know, if this is maybe unconventional, I'm not sure. I like to put it right in the middle, like, because I kind of go like that. I don't know. And then, like, I'm not an expert, but that's where I like to put it. I kind of just bring it down my nose. And I swear, like, every time I wear foundation, like, right in the center here, like, right about here, and I always get, I'm sorry, I don't mean to, like, flip the bird to you guys. I always get this, like, line, and it drives me a little baddie. So, whatever. Alright, so that's done. I also have this other thing from the dermatologist that I'm going to use. I'm not supposed to use it when I am out in the sun. So, obviously, this is, like, an evening thing, but I don't know how to say this. Trentinoin cream? I don't know. It's supposed to help with, um, you know, acne and things like that.  And, um, this has helped me, but I'm not really good at using it, you guys. Like, I just... I don't know. I just don't use it as much as I should. And I have, like, a huge thing. And I should use it more. So, really anywhere where I have something either popping up or something that looks like it might be popping up, I just put, like, the tiniest amount on my finger and just kind of dab it in. Sometimes I just do it a little bit around my hairline, too, because especially with the sweating and stuff, I feel like I get clogged pores. Do you guys get clogged pores around your hairline, too? Yeah, so, but this chin situation is kind of where I'm focusing my efforts.  And I'm so sorry this, um, lighting is pretty horrendous, but my nose is actually doing pretty good right now.  Okay, so that's that. And then, for the most fantastical part, the stuff that makes me look even more cray-cray than I already am, this stuff, which is, like, the most amazing stuff. This is the Mario Badescu, I think is how you say it, drying lotion. And this is the stuff that, like, dries out your pimples. It's so good. I actually took it on vacation with me when I was in Alaska, and I used it as well.  It helps. So there is one little patch up here that I want to get, and it kind of, like, looks like Pepto-Bismol a little bit. Like, that's kind of the color of it. But it really just, like, dries out whatever you got going on. And, um, just, like, I don't know, it just, like, calms it down overnight, I feel like. And then sometimes you need a couple of these. Yeah, I'm gonna grab another one. And then all you do is you just put your little dober in there, and you pull it right out.  There's, like, a sediment that lives down in the bottom of it. That's, like, where all the good stuff is. So, yeah, that's what you do. And I know I look crazy, but that's okay. And then I thought I had some other little things over here. Maybe I don't. I don't know, you guys can tell me. But the funny thing is, like, over here it looks like I have, like, spots, but it's just, that's hyperpigmentation. It's sun damage. So, nothing I can do about that. There's, like, another little one kind of creeping up over here. So, yeah, that's that's gonna be it. Alright, so now I am done in the bathroom. Um, yeah, that's how I really look at night when I go to sleep. Actually, I don't do this every night. I should do this every night because of my skin would probably be better than it is, but oh well, oh well. The things we do, guys, the things we do. Um, alright. Here's the little stinker buns. Aw, doobie. What's going on over here, little guy? He's, like, become one with the bed. What's going on, bud? Oh, yeah? Goodness gracious. Alright, so I, this is just, like, the funniest.  Um, but, you know, this is real life, guys. This is my real life and my real vlog. This, I don't know, I just like to be as authentic as possible without too much TMI. Maybe this was too much TMI. I don't know. Let me know in the comments. But I think Doyle and I are going to go to a bed now. Normally, um, that, like, sleeping facial thing takes a couple of minutes to dry down just a little bit. And then this stuff, like, the Pepto-O-Bismol looking stuff, um, it takes a couple minutes to dry down as well. Ah. Alright, nose edges. Okay. But we are gonna go. Thank you guys so much for hanging out with me today. They will be more fun vlogs tomorrow. I'm gonna do some worky things and yeah, adventure out, probably. Maybe not. I don't know. I think I'll adventure out, but you never know. I got a full tank of gas now because I'm at the gas station, so Emily's got big plans. So, we're gonna go. Thanks for hanging out and I will see you guys tomorrow for another vlog. Bye, guys. Well, folks, it's time to kick it off school so you can feel cool.


We swam really well today. I thought we had a rough meet last week. This week, we really came out strong. We had actually some lifetime best in the pool, which for this time of year is terrific. We had another two girls qualify for the conference meet. I think they did exactly what we asked them to do. We swam a couple of really good teams and they had some really fast swimmers and I told them to try to keep up with them and that's what they did. So the way we train, it's difficult. We had a really hard practice on Friday and then I expect them to swim really fast on Saturday and they did exactly that. So we beat a conference team in Leica that we've never beaten before. So all in all it was a really good day. The next meet is against Kings College who again is in our conference and they have a stronger women's team. Their men's team is much bigger than ours, obviously with only three guys, but we're gonna work through it. We're gonna work through the Kings meet and then we have the Diamond City Invitational which again is up in Wilkesbury. It's a two-day meet where we'll rest the kids a couple days and see if we can get some lifetime best there.


Russia, Paris getting more and more involved in conflict with Moscow. France is getting more and more indirectly involved in a war against Russia by providing weapons to Ukraine, Russian Ambassador to Paris Alexei Meshkov said. Obviously, it cannot be said that the entire French society supports this decision because everyone understands that France is getting more and more involved in a war against Russia, albeit indirectly. Still, it is in no way in line with the interests of French society. The envoy told the Rossiya 24 TV channel commenting on France's move to send 50 scalp long-range cruise missiles to Kiev. What the French government did deserves the strongest condemnation, the diplomat stressed. Scalp is a 1,300 kilogram missile armed with conventional explosives usually launched from aircraft such as the UK Air Force's Eurofighter Typhoon or France's Rafale. The missile is capable of striking targets far into Ukraine's Russian occupied east well behind front lines that have remained relatively fixed for months. The missile uses inertial navigation, GPS and terrain referencing to chart a low altitude course to its target to avoid detection. The warhead can be programmed to detonate either above the target in what is known as an airburst or on impact or after penetration. Such capabilities are critical for Ukraine's forces to disrupt Russian logistics and command and control.
