Welcome to the first video in this series on thermodynamics. Here we consider the phenomenon of heat and the concept of temperature. Heat is essential to our existence, so it's not surprising that throughout human history, people have pondered its nature. For Earth's ecosystem, the sun is the most important source of heat and light. So much so that in many cultures the sun was considered a god. We don't control the sun, obviously, but when our ancestors learned how to start and maintain fires, they obtained a source of heat and light that they could control for their own purposes, from heating their dwellings and cooking to, eventually, smelting and smithing metals and building steam engines. It was especially this last innovation that motivated the development of a rigorous theory of thermodynamics. Various explanations of the nature of heat, fire and light have been proposed through the centuries. Fire was one of the four classical elements, earth, water, air and fire, which were thought to be the fundamental components of all matter. In 1667, Johann Besscher proposed that fire consists of the release of a substance he called phlegiston. At this time, no clear distinction between fire and heat had been established. In 1783, Antoine Lavossier proposed that heat, as distinct from fire, was due to the presence of a substance called caloric. The more caloric an object contains, the hotter it is. Caloric must be massless, since the mass of a body does not change with temperature, that is, as it gains or loses caloric. Caloric must also be self-repellent. This explains why hot and cold bodies in contact equalize their temperature, as caloric flows from the hot to the cold body. A powerful argument against the idea of heat as a substance was presented in 1798 by Benjamin Thompson in his an experimental inquiry concerning the source of the heat, which is excited by friction. Thompson observed that during the boring of a cannon, a tremendous amount of heat is generated by friction, and there is no limit to this process. If heat was a substance, presumably, it would eventually all be driven off, and friction would then no longer produce heat. In fact, many scientists had already expressed the opinion that heat is not a substance, but a process, the motion of the particles making up a body. Bacon's opinion was, heat itself is motion and nothing else. Descartes wrote, It is this motion that is now called heat and now light according to the different effects it produces. Hook saw heat as being nothing else but a very brisk and vehement agitation of the parts of a body, while Boyle had written a treatise of the mechanical origin of heat and cold, and Newton had proposed that heat consists in a minute vibratory motion. Regardless of its nature, we are led to the concept of temperature, when we consider how to quantify the intuitive concepts of hot and cold. A standard approach is to find various physical phenomena that can serve as temperature references. In the Celsius temperature scale, zero degrees is essentially the freezing point of water. Here we have an ice-water mixture in equilibrium. My thermometer registers zero degrees Celsius. If it didn't, I could use this mixture to calibrate its zero degree reading. 100 degrees Celsius is the boiling point of water. Here the thermometer inserted into boiling water registers 98.8 degrees Celsius. This might indicate it needs to be recalibrated, but in fact, this illustrates something that early researchers soon discovered. The boiling point of water varies with atmospheric pressure. At lower or higher pressure, water boils at a lower or higher temperature. The 100 degree reference is specific to so-called standard atmospheric pressure. The calculated boiling point for the barometric pressure during the measurements shown here corresponded to the measured water temperature. Intermediate temperatures can be produced in so-called mixing experiments. Carlo Renaldini was a pioneer of this technique. Later, Daniel Fahrenheit extended the process. In a simple mixing experiment, we take a volume V1 of water at a temperature T1. Mix it with a volume V2 of water at a temperature T2 to produce a volume V of water at a temperature T. The final volume is found to be the sum of V1 and V2. Actually, this is only an approximation, although a very good one. Water changes volume slightly with temperature. The final temperature is found to be a weighted average of the original temperatures. The weighting factors are the volumes. Again, this is only a very good approximation. Starting with freezing water and boiling water, that is, T1 equals 0 and T2 equals 100, Renaldini used this idea to produce water of any desired intermediate temperature by varying the volumes accordingly. In effect, this equation served to define temperatures between 0 and 100 degrees Celsius. Regardless of the ultimate nature of heat, it seemed clear that in this process the hot water cooled by giving up some heat, and the cold water warmed by absorbing that heat. The amount of heat transferred was precisely that needed to bring the two volumes to the same temperature. This leads us to define the calorie as that amount of heat which raises the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius. Considerable effort was spent attempting to construct a device that could provide a continuous reading of temperature. This is what we now call a thermometer. The gas thermoscope, thought to have been invented by Galileo, was an important step toward this goal. A glass bulb containing a gas had a long thin neck which is inserted into an open volume of water. As the temperature changes, the enclosed gas expands or contracts. This causes the water level in the neck to rise or fall. A high level indicates a low temperature and a low level a high temperature. Here's a museum replica of this type of device. The gas thermoscope is, in fact, a type of gas thermometer. All we need to do is add volume markings and calibrate these to known temperatures. Let's do some kitchen science and try to make a gas thermometer using a 100 milliliter syringe. Sealed airtight at both ends. For calibration, we'll cheat and use a modern electronic thermometer. At room temperature, about 24 degrees, the syringe volume was 60 milliliters. In a freezer at about minus 12 degrees, the volume was 52 milliliters. And in hot tap water at about 57 degrees, the volume was 66 milliliters. The milliliter markings are not very precise, but we do get three measurements that fairly closely lie on the line. This line can be used to convert arbitrary syringe volume measurements to temperature. The gas thermoscope and thermometer have a common drawback. The volume of the enclosed gas depends not only on the temperature, but also on atmospheric pressure. These devices are actually a type of barometer-thermometer combination. Nevertheless, over short periods of time, they can provide a useful measure of temperature changes. But they will not give repeatedly accurate results in different locations and at very different times. Our fit line shows gas volume decreasing with decreasing temperature. It's interesting to extrapolate the line all the way to zero volume. This happens at around minus 270 degrees. Since volume cannot decrease beyond this limit, this suggests that temperature cannot either. This is presumably the coldest possible temperature. If we use this quote absolute zero as our zero temperature and keep the Celsius degree increment, then we have the so-called absolute or Kelvin temperature scale. Scientifically useful thermometers were first produced by Daniel Fahrenheit with his development of the mercury and glass thermometer in 1714. This had a volume of mercury enclosed in an evacuated sealed glass tube. The sealed design makes it insensitive to barometric pressure. The result was the first practical thermometer that was repeatedly accurate. It was now possible for anyone, anywhere, under any conditions, to make reliable temperature measurements. These precision instruments enabled the development of quantitative thermal science. After being state of the art for centuries, only recently they've been increasingly replaced by electronic thermometers.


And we're back with the breakfast in Plasti via Africa. It's time for us to go through a second conversation. The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, on Tuesday expressed concern over the spate of violence at the ongoing electioneering campaign. The commission said it would summon leaders of political parties participating in the 2023 general elections over the threat of violence that has happened. Now, INEC chairman, Momoti Yokobu, raised concern at the training of master trainers on technologies for the 2023 general elections in Abuja. This came shortly after the People's Democratic Party PDP campaign was attacked by suspected thugs in Kaduna state. Describing the development as worrisome, Yokobu cautioned parties and their supporters to focus on issue and stairway of attacks on each other. The Vowland Act, when not only valuation of the electoral acts of 2022, but also it negates the voluntary commitment by political parties and candidates to the letter and a spate of peace accord. This is the thoughts of the chairman. He also acknowledged reports of clashes among parties and their supporters in some states of the country during the ongoing electioneering campaign, which he described as worrisome. So too is the reports denial of access to public facilities for parties and candidates in some states of the federation. He also said that there's need to caution parties and their supporters to focus on issues like it was rightly mentioned and to the away from attack on each other. These are not only the valuation of the electoral act of 2022, but also it negates the commitment by political parties and candidates to the letter and spirit of peace accord, which was signed about three weeks ago under the auspices of the National Peace Committee. We have Ambrose Iqbouke, who joins the conversation as a public affairs analyst. Ambrose, it's good to have you join us this morning. Good morning. Good morning. Yes, Piz. Why do we still have this kind of politicking or campaigning that's characterized by violence and contrary to the electoral act, even when you have these political leaders signing a peace accord? Well, first of all, Nigeria has had a very you know, satisfactory when it comes to election area. After the independence in 1916, the major political crisis that happened, happened in 1964. In the action group election with the Western House of Parliament, the Tresola-Kitola-Nahorowas group, and that led to what we call the oppression led here, which was a precursor to January 15, 1966 school, because it was that election, Western Regional Election of 1964 that's cascaded into the violence that engulfed the Western region, that led to the declaration of emergency there, and that made the military boys strong to say that the politicians cannot take care of the country. So, you know, we cannot allow those kind of mistakes to continue. 1979, so you don't face your violence. Where, you know, electoral policies where voting votes were snatched, all kinds of insults held at each other, people lost their lives. In fact, it was so infamous that we could not determine what was to turn, and they were to go to the courts. You know, it was always messy. And then when we came, the only election we saw at rest fight was in 1993, June 12th election, that seemed to have where the Professor Humphrey was who, the chairman then of the electoral body, brought the option A4, and it worked wonderfully at that time. And we didn't have round call. The election results are displayed, almost, and then it was completed by the ADB regime. Now, then we resumed democracy in 1999, who had got to the body for the military to go. So, election was just done, conducted, and then, but the first test of our election was in 2003, in this situation. There were lots of foulness. In fact, a state fair was created to the former head of state, chief publicist for Bass Angels, that the election was very due to a bad effect, but the election was war.  That is the mindset we come to politics in. We come to politics, of course, every politician comes to win it, but not win it at all costs. That is what the Nigerian politician, Nitec, is made of. But we saw that change in the year 2016. For the first time in a long while, we saw an incubate president who made the famous statement that his ambition as a politician is not what the blood of any Nigerian. And that was Dr. Goodlock and Bella Jonathan. For Dr. Goodlock asked some of his in the philosophy that is what a lecture is supposed to say. Ibokke, we apologize for that, but if you're there and you can hear me, I mean, the politicians, some studies have said some reports, you know, think tanks have come up with the analysis that if you look at all of this, the accusing finger always points back at the politician. And you rightly talked about some of the rhetoric of politicians in times past, like they do or die a fair, famous statement by a former president of the country. Recently, there was a piece of court signed by the 18 political parties contesting the presidential election in 2023. This was done at the International Conference Center in Abuja, midway by the National Peace Committee. But with the signing of this electoral, this peace pact, or this peace accord, we're still seeing here reports like the INH chairman said of violence amongst the political parties and their supporters. Most recently in Cardinal State, where some PDP supporters were attacked. Why do we still have the politicians signing a peace pact and peace accord yet will continue to have violent situations in our polity? Mr. Ibokke, do we still have you? Yeah, we do have me. You know, what we do have is political actors are still in the political scene. So there's still this election. Remember that there was a moment where in one of the elections, I think in 2017 or 2011, they made an intimate statement about the bubble to be sucked in blood. You remember that statement? Yeah, but Mr. Ibokke, the reason I'm asking is they signed the peace accord just last month, late last, it's not even up to one month. They signed the peace accord. So what's going on? Well, what's going on is that we need to, we need to, maybe we need to bring back the matter to talk to them. And how, as a sitting and incumbent president, he gave up, you know, he didn't contest the result of the election. He called Irina to congratulate him. Maybe he should come and put all these frontline political actors on how to go about this thing. And then the supporters, are the most dangerous set of people. The political actors themselves are very, very convivial with each other. They are fresh, actually. They're rich together. They're dying together. But it's the politicians that are actually, it's the political associates are followers that are always a dagger drawn. So for example, we saw the digital accident of Kebaba Balatimubu and Alaja Chukwabubaka meeting at the airport and chatting and that is how they are. All of them are friends. They are only enemies. So this is the common man that passed down life.  So the political actors, the candidates should start talking to them to their followers. But this is not a true or dire thing. Your followers are supposed to monitor their election. Martian asked the point of the strength of your candidates to ensure that they sell their candidates to Nigeria. I'm not this violent. We saw the, okay, we saw the violent in different forms. There is the administrative violence. Where you deny access, we have the solidarity of your opponents to publish user agilities. And this gives the candidates of other political parties are also citizens. For indigenous of the state, I am denying that. Why should you do that? We have reports from Lagos that last one is denying other political parties from advertising on outlaws of debauches. And that's as you concretize, because I always drive through Lagos. You had me through any opposition debauches. I was there with a phone, a phone conversation that looked over some two months ago, that, that solidified that. And it's because the government has denied it. But again, we are not saying this. So it is that all that comes from political violence. All right, Ambrose Igboke, we have to go now. And that's because we're really out of time, but we appreciate you and your thoughts this morning on the show. Thank you for having me. Well, we have been speaking with Ambrose Igboke. Here is Public Affairs Analyst, who joins us right here in Lagos via a phone conversation. That's the size of it. We will return tomorrow, hopefully. And it would be great, great lineup for us. If you missed that on the nepativator, we'll be all right to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and do subscribe to our YouTube channel. We are at Plus TV Africa and Plus TV Africa Lifestyle. I am Messi Boko, have a fantastic morning. And my name is Kofi Bartel, so we'll return with more programming tomorrow, which happens between 10th of October, 2022, the second anniversary of the Lekia Ensa's killings. I'm sure we'll have an interesting one. So please join us again tomorrow morning.


Have y'all ever noticed that with the Ravens things could be very very quiet for a couple of days and then all of a sudden on one day all this news this influx of news would just start coming in and it'll be all this activity coming out of Ravens camp and Wednesday this week was one of those days because first we got some really good news when it came to practice they said Marcus Peters returned and I was like okay let's go MP Juke's man he's back now he did come back on a limited basis but that's a start because last week there was no limited basis there was nothing in the week before that too so he's missed the past couple of games so that's been unfortunate but with him coming back even though it's limited that's where it starts so please come back we miss you Jimmy Smith to he hasn't come back yet he still hasn't practiced we waiting on him I and it just end up being another injury I think they said it was his ribs and his shoulder now and it's just man it's always something with Jimmy and it's been unfortunate because it's been that way for his entire career so it's not like it's a surprise anything but you just hope the best for Jimmy because Jimmy is a really good cornerback when he's healthy so Jimmy get healthy soon we miss you we need you please come back and somebody who we're probably gonna be missing this weekend because he took a team keeping clean test but it came back inconclusive so he got placed on the non-team keeping clean list was Raven's punner and Raven's holder Sam cook so he is probably gonna be out this game against the Cincinnati Bengals now hopefully he won't even be needed because that would mean that the Raven's offense was just scoring and scoring and scoring and scoring and racking up all them points like they have been for the past couple of weeks and as they need to continue to do but he may be out this game so they said Justin Tucker could end up being the punner and you know what I honestly like I'm not even worried about it I'm not even worried about it like if this dude he can kick any kind of field goal in the world this dude can sing opera too and he got so much other stuff that he can do you know he being in Royal Farms commercials but if he can do all that I'm sure he can punt the ball too and he actually used to punt in college a little bit so I'm not I'm not really worried about that yeah maybe the first one may be office up but you know Justin Tucker he's like a perfectionist so I'm sure he's gonna be on point so that doesn't really concern me very much at all and I don't think it should concern you either but as far as the holder that's where it gets a little tiny bit concerning because they said Mark Andrews there was some talk about Mark Andrews possibly being the holder coming up this Sunday for Justin Tucker's field goals and with Mark Andrews I just hope this is one of the games where he remembers his hands like hopefully it'll be a game like last week because you know Mark Andrews he really good tight end really good tight end but sometimes the hands could be a little up and down they could be a little bit shirky sometimes but we'll see what happens we just got to wait it out and we'll see when we get there maybe the Ravens just go for two all day we'll see what happens but anyway so he may be out this game somebody else who may end up being out this game is Ravens soon to be new practice squad signing Jayron curse Jayron curse he played for the Lions who just cut him for leaving the hotel without being authorized to and honestly I think he might have done that on purpose because he's probably looking like man it's week 16 it's getting ready to be week 17 I'm with Detroit you know what I may lose a little bit of bread now but let me try to get a jump start on free agency let me try to get a little jump start cuz there's a lot of safety that's gonna be out there it's of course the draft that's gonna be out there and a if a team gonna take a chance on me might as well be now I might as well take advantage so that dude probably left that hotel he probably set off the alarms when he was walking out he probably left his door open to his hotel room he probably made sure it was known that he left because I'm sure when you look at Detroit and you look at everything going on over there and with that team and then you look at free agency you like oh man it's so many so much more opportunity with free agency I just I can't do it anymore so he got cut and now the Ravens scooped now the reason that the Ravens scoop in my personal opinion I think it might have been a domino effect I think it could have been one of those scenarios where when they cut Geno stone maybe they expected him to clear waivers and they will want to bring him back to the practice squad after he did clear those waivers but Texans they swooped in and said whoa wait a minute buddy you ain't going back there come here your new home right here in Houston so when Houston scooped them up I think that forced the Ravens that forced the Ravens hand and they were like oh okay um all right Jayron come on you Jay gone from Detroit now welcome aboard and with him he is six foot four so this dude is a giant and they said that he plays big nickel he's a big nickel guy and they said he's he's good at covering them tight ends that's what he's known for to cover those tight ends and boy we could certainly use some help there and just really could really use depth at the safety position period because we don't really have much depth right now we have of course the Sean Elliott we have of course Chuck Clark Jordan riches and Anthony Levine and that's it and that may sound like a good amount of safety because it's for safeties but when one goes down like a position could get decimated like that like that and then of course the quality of it as well the quality of your depth is so important and I know you can't have a starter at every single level of the depth on at the depth on your team no you can't do that but you do want to make sure you have both quality and quantity so hopefully with J Ron curse hopefully he brings some real good quality to the Ravens in their secondary now I don't know much about him I've seen a little bit and stuff from his game from both when he was on the Vikings and when he was on the Lions and I seen a little even the highlight videos they just they're not really highlights they just he just made a couple plays some of them could have been co-op as interference but hey it's all good but what I saw from that is that he looks like he seems to be a very physical guy doesn't have the best speed in the world from what I saw and again I didn't see too much but from what I saw he seemed to be very physical has decent speed but not not no crazy speed anything like that but maybe that's cuz he just so tall maybe that's cuz he's a giant cuz I know Miles Boykin he's 6-4 and when he's running it doesn't always look the fastest but you know those long legs it looks a lot slower when they're running versus somebody who's like Hollywood sat in when he take off is like oh yeah he takes off so we'll see how he does we'll see how he does I'm sure he's not gonna be the end all be all when it comes to the Ravens in the tight ends but I'm holding our hope for him and hoping that he does well now another thing with him he is not I don't I don't believe he's eligible to play in this game coming up this Sunday but he would be eligible for Ravens first playoff game so that means that the Ravens this better not be no blank signing Ravens you better take care of your business against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday Ravens I know you didn't sign this man for nothing you signed him to play in a playoff game you signed him to play in what four playoff games that's what you signed him for so he needs to do exactly that so these Ravens making this super late season move but I'm with it I'm with it I got no problem with it a cool man and I love the fact that again this is something that we talked about with Eric DeCosta I do love the fact that he's always looking this team is always looking and they always trying to improve their roster and that's something that's very important and something that definitely needs to be continue to be brought up when you talk about Eric DeCosta yes they have slipped when it comes to the defining the number one receiver they have slipped up there and you got acknowledged that too but along with the bad you got to give credit where credit is due to these Ravens they are always looking for ways to get better and it's a beautiful thing so shout out to them our team keep it clean shout out to y'all make sure you check out the team keep it clean podcast we're getting ready to drop another new episode this week so that'll be actually two new episodes in one week that's crazy that's crazy but I do seriously appreciate you guys all your support I thank you all for just y'all are really the best y'all are the best y'all are just amazing I appreciate all the positive energy like I said in the last episode of the podcast make sure you protect your energy that is so important please make sure you protect your energy don't let anybody kill your vibe don't entertain none of the negativity none of the foolishness don't entertain none of that just keep it moving somebody try to bring all that to you just keep it moving so team keep it clean I love y'all thank you so much for rocking with us supporting us and just like Jay Ron was when it came to his hotel room with the Detroit Lions I'm out


Well, hello and welcome to this video. Today I'm talking about three easy online ways to grow your artist's email list. Recently I've done another video, kind of refreshed video on how to set up and grow your mailing list. So if you haven't watched that, make sure to grab the link below this one and check out that video. But here we're diving a little bit deeper into just three online strategies and look out for another video coming where I'm gonna do my favorite offline strategy. So at the moment we're talking all things mailing lists and remember, again, if you're new to this channel, you won't know yet that I talk an awful lot about building your mailing list. Why? Because you own it, right? Doesn't matter how many followers you have on social media. If you don't own social media, you could have 100,000 followers on Facebook or 100,000 followers on Instagram, but if those platforms shut down tomorrow, you're going to be a little stuck, right? But a mailing list you own, you've got the possibility to send emails on a regular basis, check out this video here about email marketing, what to be putting in your email. And from there, of course, you build up rapport and a relationship with people who are interested and want to hear more from you. And as we know, over time, the likelihood of somebody making a purchase from your email is really high. You've got somebody that said, yes, please, I want to hear more from you. You communicate regularly. And when you make an offer specifically to people who are on your mailing list, then you've got the opportunity to make sales right there. Super simple, right? But there's a few things you need to know. And the most important one right now, I figure, is how to grow that list full of the right subscribers. So in this video, we're going to really get into action and focus on growing. And like I said, I'm going to share three online strategies that you can use that I think are probably the best ones to be using right now in 2023. So I look forward to sharing those. In just a moment. So in case we haven't met, I'm Sophie, Artist Entrepreneur and Art Business Coach, helping you create a profitable business from your creative passion. And don't forget, if you find my videos helpful, consider subscribing to my channel.  So before we start, I should say that these work really, really well if you are already creating content. So as we know, in the world of marketing, there's a couple of ways that you can generally go. You can become what we call a content creator. That's somebody who's going to do blogging, make a podcast, make a YouTube video. They're going to create something for the audience to read or watch or listen to predominantly. Or maybe you're somebody who's going to use more kind of on the spot stuff. So maybe you're going to use PR or you're going to go networking or you're going to use something like TikTok, videos and social media. There's a little bit different. So these three strategies work particularly well if you are more of a content creator. Okay, so strategy number one to build that mailing list. And this is a kind of medium to long burn, but oh goodness me, it can be a really, really great way to build the list and that is blogging. So you think about what it is that your audience either wants to find out more about or perhaps has a pain point. So this is going to depend if you offer products or services. If you are creating those online courses or offline courses and workshops, then chances are your audience has a challenge or a problem that they need solving. If you create products and you have artwork then they probably have desires, things that are looking for. So you need to make sure that you've listed out a few of those and that you plan out your blog topics accordingly. Now I do have a blogging playlist. So if you're even vaguely intrigued or you already do blogging and you want to learn a bit more, then below this video, I'm leaving a link to my blogging playlist where I sort of break down the blogging process in various different videos. So one of the easiest ways is to think about one of the blogs that you've got. Perhaps it's you know that it's a really core topic for your audience and you create a PDF worksheet or cheat sheet or materials list or something that's going to be super simple for you to do, like a one pager and you can create into a PDF and then again you offer it for people to join your mailing list. So they're reading the blog. They're like, this is interesting. I'm going down the blog. I'm reading the information. I really want to know for example where you get all the materials that you're mentioning from. Oh, there's a free materials list where I can find out more. I'll grab that materials list. They click through and they're joining the mailing list. All right, so there's so many different free things that you can create. It could be that you're writing about your process and you're writing, maybe you do digital art and you're creating, you're talking about your process and you're saying, this is my process to create these prints. Why not get a free download of this specific print right now? And somebody who's reading that might be really inspired. I love one of the prints. I've got a free download. This is amazing. So they get the free download joining the mailing list. I think you've got the idea, right? And then I wouldn't say that you need to do this in every blog. I would actually look through the blogs that you're writing and think, yeah, that one's a standalone. That's good. Obviously, you're linking the blogs together. So when somebody reads one blog, they click through on something that you've said. They click through to another blog. And perhaps that's the blog that's got a freebie in it. So this strategy works really well if you're prepared to make a few of these free offers and entry points to the mailing list. If you've only got one, it might be quite hard work to make all the blogs linked to that one thing. So I think it's quite good to have, work your way up. The more you have, the more entry points, of course, you have to the mailing list. Number two, you know it, you're watching it, it's YouTube. So it's pretty much the same strategy for blogging. So when I create the YouTube videos, I actually have a plan normally for the whole year in a spreadsheet. I've got various topics that I know that I want to cover based on questions that you have, comments that you make, things that I see come up in my free business for artists Facebook group, that sort of thing. So again, I'm very familiar where the pain points are and so in this spreadsheet, I have worked out all the videos that I'm going to be making. Therefore, I can work out also which videos I'm going to be talking about a freebie, an entry point to the mailing list. So it's similar to blogging, it's just a different platform and I think it's a little bit more powerful because you can talk about the freebie. So imagine if you're making that video, I don't know, three ways to start your watercolour painting. I'm always doing watercolours. I don't do watercolours myself, but I saw as my example, three steps to beginning a watercolour painting.  You know that it's a topic people want. You create this video and then in there, you create a freebie that goes with it that would be the natural next step. And then people are like, oh, this is exciting and you could talk about it. If you want to learn a little bit more, then grab my five ways to, 10 ways to, whatever it is that's relevant for you. People are watching the video and they're like, I've got to really want that resource. They look below the video where you send them, you say that's it's below the video. You can also link it up above in a card but you put it below the video, it works quite well and then people go and grab that freebie. So the blogging, they're reading it all. The video's quite nice because you can really, you're talking about the pain point in the video and then you can talk about the freebie. So obviously it depends what it is that you do if you're more of a writer behind the scenes, that's gonna suit you. If you do the YouTube videos already, well, perhaps you can go back through and you can even put some freebies at the bottom of your descriptions of all your current videos. And then as you plan forwards, you can make sure to think about a freebie, talk about it in a key video. Like I say, you've probably noticed, I don't talk about these things in every video, I talk about them where they fit in naturally. So where it's like, okay, how is that useful? That is gonna be just a video on the setting up and kind of growing the mailing list. Well, obviously I have a free challenge. So why would I not tell my audience about that? I have something that solves the problem. Why would I not do that? So I did, I said, you can get a free challenge. This is where it, this is where you can get it. So this is a really great strategy and there's a lot of you who are, got your own YouTube channels. So again, it's targeted to your audience. Remember, this is not a random thing. You must understand your audience and understand what they're looking to gain. And the third one is, of course, Pinterest. Now for those people who are already using Pinterest, you're probably very aware that it's a high traffic source. What does that mean? So if you're using it, a lot of people use Pinterest to send people to their website. Lots and lots of pins with different topics on. You click on them, they go to the website. Now I've got a recent video on Pinterest for this year. So check that out up here. I'll make sure and I'll also link it below this video as well. Dives a bit more into Pinterest and what you can be doing with it right now. But the basics are, you've got a board on a specific topic, are we gonna do the watercolors again? I think we are a watercolour course. You might even call the board and then you can create pins that are the videos. You can send people to YouTube. You can send people to the blog and you can send them direct to the landing page where they can gain the freebie as well, right? Pretty simple. So in the pin there's a description. This is what you're gonna get, here it is. And you can create several pins around that one freebie and put them on different boards as well. So you can create some static pins around your freebie. You can create idea pins that link to your freebie. So you can use the link in your Pinterest bio to send people maybe to the core freebie or to a page on the website where you have multiple freebies. That's a good idea. You could create a free resources board. So one of those multiple boards that you pin to could actually just be free resources. So somebody could go there and go, oh, I want that one, that one, that one. Now they're only ever gonna get on the list once, but if you've got the list set up in such a way that it tags them, then they're gonna have a little tag in your system saying which freebies they've got. That's interesting to look at that data later and see what your audience is really interested in. So as I said, make sure to check out my Pinterest videos. I've got one that I've just made this year, as I said, and I'll link below this video. Well, so I think really it's likely that one of these three is gonna work for you, specifically if you create content and or if you're a Pinterest user. Now if you don't do any of these things, then you're gonna love the next video that I'm making because that's something you can do even offline as a physical strategy as well. You can do it online, but the story I'm gonna tell in that video and the one I think the best way to grow the list offline, I'm gonna be telling that in the next video. If you're at all interested, make sure you're subscribed so you can get a notification when that video comes out next week. And a bonus strategy, ads, of course, to really kind of grow things and ramp things up. So here's my little rule about ads. Don't be running ads until you've got something that you know works well.  Super powerful. But I say don't start out with ads until you know that that thing is working, all right? So in conclusion, building your artist mailing list with these three online strategies is gonna work really well if, like we said, you have a routine and you're doing this consistently. So consistency is always the key to success, folks. Putting up one blog and then six months later, putting another one and getting a freebie in there but not redoing anything else. That's kind of not what we're talking about. We're talking about somebody who blogs weekly or puts a YouTube video out weekly or pins daily. So it's a consistent routine is what's going to work. So if you've loved this content, don't forget again to give the video a thumbs up. Let me know in the comments below what point you're actually gonna work on, what you've enjoyed, what you'd like to hear more about. And if you haven't already, check out the set up and grow in 2023 video that's here on the screen right now. Thank you so much for watching and I'll see you on the next one.


As you head to beaver's men's hockey games this season, you might want to grab a roster. No more Mike Bitzer, no more Fitzgerald triplets, and a whole bunch of new faces that need to step up. It's a youthful team for the beavers this year as underclassmen make up the majority and nine newcomers have added some excitement into the locker room. You know you see that many freshmen coming in and I think what it presents is like opportunity. So you know whenever there's a challenge we see it as opportunity and we're looking forward to that. Maybe more than anything the competition amongst the team I think is going to be really good so hopefully that can bring out the best in in everyone. Coach Saratori has named two co-captains and three assistant captains which he says is both unprecedented and by design. When you have a young group you want to have a leadership group that maybe all these guys can identify with they can identify with somebody in that room. I think it's important to have a bigger leadership group when you have a young group like us. The team's experience lies on the blue line as five upperclassmen who saw significant playing time return. You see our our defensive core and I think that's the you know the base of our team just with the senior seniority and you know the amount of games played. There's versatility we are it's a good skating core we've got some good defenders we've got some guys who can generate some offense. The biggest question is who will be in net as returners Jack Bergar and Henry Johnson and newcomer sophomore Zach Triscoll will all be vying for the job. You know Jack and Hank coming back I think they've they both had good summers they look great and then you know Driscoll coming in he's looked great as well so your guess is about as good as mine right now who's gonna play they I think they're all bringing out the best of each other at all. We're not sitting there making a lot of decisions right now because practice is very difficult to a certain degree they need to get in they need to get in games. You know someone's gonna step up and they're all gonna step up in different times and you know it's gonna be interesting to see how it plays out. And Serratory says the goalies will each get a period as the team begins its season on Saturday for an exhibition contest.

So it's time to talk League of Ireland football as we do each and every week here on Highland on our score program and former Fanharps captain Declan Boyle has joined us once again. Declan, good to talk to you again on Highland. Good to be back, Matthew. Well, we're looking into the games that will take place on Friday, Fanharps and Derry City, both in action. I suppose we'll start with Harps. These games, Ollie Horgan says that these games are big every week, but they're starting to get a bit bigger now, so they are given that Harps haven't won a match since they played Waterford. I was down in Waterford in the middle of May, Declan, and they haven't just struck that same form that we've seen them hit at the start of the campaign. So how big is this game then? Friday night on the road against Drawhada in your mind? Yeah, I think Ollie's probably correct when he says it's a big match for them. It's important to try to get a one or pick up three points somewhere. Drawhada are obviously up doing well at home, and I picked up a lot of points, and I've been formidable this year, and obviously they beat Harps here in the season in the fan park there as well. 2-1 with the last minute goal from Dan Massey, and I think the first game up in Drawhada was also a 1-1 draw. So this is important to pick up three points from somewhere and just give them a bit of confidence, just not getting the breaks. A lot of injuries as well in the squad, and that's affecting the performance on the pitch. You just need to get three points from somewhere. Obviously they've waterfired at home as well, they'll be up and tired of that for a home one, but it's really important to concentrate on Drawhada, but it'll not be an easy match, and even if they get a draw up, tends to be a very good result up there. Yeah, but is it a game that they can take the fall points on deck when things start to fall right for them, because just sort of weed decisions and when things happen on the field, just haven't been going their way up late? No, that's correct, and they haven't got the breaks. Even last week against Longford for the performance, it wasn't brilliant, they've probably done enough on the day to get three points.  The first goal, and there aren't dogs as well, I looked offside, so I'm a strange one from the referee, and maybe he's seen something that I didn't see, but yeah, those kinds of decisions have gone against you, and then you know, you bring down and weave it up with no injuries and suspension coming on board as well, and that just affects you, but a few players have left the squad, so just leaves that weave it down in numbers and quality on the bench to make changes. And yeah, that's David Webster, that's the last three games, and I think, you know, he's a big player for them, and we can get him back fit, and then the team, I think, he made a big difference, even though the Johnny Dunleavy's come on and done very well and left back. Harps, Ollie Horgan said rather that it wasn't looking into the transfer market, that was a number a weeks ago, but things have changed very, very quickly. I'm sure the Harps boss now will be keeping an eye on who's available and who he can bring in, because it doesn't, as you say, have the same squad available to him now, as we go into the month of July. No, the squad's definitely depleted. I know, if you look at the quality they had in the start of 11, also on the bench, they've lost players, Matt Russell's gone away, Ryan Shanley's gone back to Scotland as well, there's two that have left the club, and there's a few more that have left as well, so it's important, you know, I've no doubt that Ollie's playing that down on the wee bit, I would say, is looking to bring in a wee bit of quality, and the top end of the pitch just to convert things, or another midfielder potentially as well. So you're always looking to bring in a wee bit of quality, and what's important is from things, maybe you're not going the way you want them to go, and you're out of luck on the wee bit, and some decision making you want to begin a player with a wee bit of quality, that'll give the players that are really there, a wee lift to bring them forward. I suppose throughout the whole season they've been very good, they've played very well, the funds at home have been excellent, results haven't gone away, but now they had a wee blip, they had a really good start, and a wee blip now is important just to get through that blip and push on from there as they see themselves, and you know, this is a big match in draw, let's try to get something out of the game, if not three points, and then bring that into the Waterford match next week at home. Yeah, and I suppose it's amazing what three points can do, if you haven't had three points in quite a number of weeks, if it was to happen tomorrow night, decide we get a massive lift out of it, Declan. Of course, yeah, absolutely, because sports is all about confidence, and the more positive results, the better players play, and that's as evident in front of goals or missing chances as well, and selecting a wee bit of composure, they've got and had opportunities to win the games, and they just haven't converted them, that has an effect obviously, they're getting sucked in now to obviously to Longford and also to Waterford, and you want to keep the distance between them as much as possible, but if you can get two or three points on the bounce, one, two or three games, actually it can mean such a difference, meaning you can get six points or two games, that gives you such a lift, and it gets you back into the middle of the table and gives everybody around the club a lift, but also the players the confidence to go on and finish out the season and read positive notes. Yeah, and they'll be looking for the northwest sides to help them out this weekend, Derry are at the Brandywell, taking on Waterford, Derry were unlucky not to come away at Oriole Park the last day with something deck, and just a second the feet on the Rory Higgins, but as Derry looked to take three points against Waterford, the Derry City Manager isn't hanging around in relation to Signings because he's had a very, very busy week, Declan. They have, and I suppose listening to that, it's a great thing to have for Oriole to get the support of his chairperson and the funding to do so, and you know that makes a hell of a difference, I mean, Jimmy McGonagall's come in there from Crusader, so he can play up top, but he also can play out wide, and I think that's important because David Park has been up playing up there centre forward, he's just not getting the ammunition or the opportunities, and hopefully Jimmy can come in there and give them a nap, and now Jimmy himself, he probably goes sort of from Nairie's league, so we'll be interested to see how he fares out, I mean, the reason 35,000 is supposed to be spent on bringing them in from Crusader, just a lot of money in League of Ireland circuit to buy a player, and so it'll be interesting to see how he hits the ground running, but has scored a lot of goals, so it comes with a lot of potential, obviously Cameron Mcjannard as well, and James Zachentum, they have signed 18 multi-extensions as a contract, and they also signed three of the young academy players who were involved in the first team as well as a professional contract for the first time, so that's really positive, really good that they're securing, and they're given a long-term contract, so that's important to players in regards to their welfare, but also planning ahead, and you know, people nowadays are professional people and they have mortgages or bills to pay, they need to have some security, so that's great, but it also means that they have these players for the next three to four years, which is great, the club. There's rumours rife at the moment, there could be another edition in the next couple of days now. As we speak Declan, there's not an official here, but Junior in some sort of way has been linked with a move back to the brandywell, if that was to happen, and it is the case, how big a lift would that be for Derry on the goalscoring front? Yeah, that's a big lift, he had an excellent season there two seasons ago, with Derry's study when he played along with Parkhouse between the two and the 30 goalscoring season, so that he will bring them a lift, he can play up top, he can play out wide or right or left, so that will obviously give them more quality in those areas, and strengthen those areas, because that's probably an area that they haven't done that well in all year, they've relied heavily on set plays for their goals, so they haven't played, they haven't scored too many goals from open plays, so after he'd bring that quality and penetration to the team, if he comes, he left off to Derry's study and he went to Slaggo, didn't go so well on Slaggo, then he was worried he was supposed to come back to Derry's study and then he ended up signing for Dundalk, so it hasn't worked out from Dundalk, a lot of quality up there, but he'd be a welcome addition and will bring something a wee bit different up top, if they can sign them, and it's a big sign for Derry's study. Yeah, can Waterford trouble Derry tomorrow night? Waterford have been good, they've been, I suppose the new manager come in and they've done a small money pre-season there, just during the break and they've got a lot fitter, they seem to have a bit more lift and confidence and more motivation, they had a big result two weeks ago after beating Longford up in Longford and getting a 2-1 on that, because of the wee bit of distance between them and Longford, so they've beaten Dundalk on the road as well and up the Oriole and 1-3-1 as well, so they've got big results away from home. They count on good performances, I see Derry getting three points against Waterford at the weekend. Yeah, the other team below Harps and sitting below Waterford as well, as long for town, you would expect Slaggo Rovers to have too much for the Basement Club, but Harps will be looking for a result there as well that would help them along the way, but Slaggo go into this game, probably off the back of their best performance of the season, Declan? Yeah, by all accounts, there was a top, top red performance by Slaggo against Bows, who Bows were coming on good form and had a lot of big victories as well, supposed to be a smashing game with football actually, by all accounts and big performance by all the players involved on the night and they got a big victory against Bows and that gives them the confidence to push on because they went through three bad results as such and two over the bank holiday weekend and that's obviously then coming into the Bows game and they got a big victory against Bows and that keeps them up along with some parts of Shamrock Rovers on top of the table, but yeah, the last time they went and played Longford, they won 1-1 in Elbs, Gary Buckley scored a header from a corner kick, but yeah, listen, not be easy as we all know the easy games in it, but you'd be expecting them to get three points against Longford on Friday. Yeah, and they've added to their squad as well, they have taken in Shamrock Kuhl to the side, Declan, what do you make of that move? Yeah, so Shamrock has been up training along with the first team, but he's also played a few matches for the under-19s, under ourselves, so yeah, really good player, he's just, he's a Slaggome lad himself, would have played international football at 15s and 16s and 17s and won a cross to Sevham for two years and has come back here and just didn't work out from a few injuries. He's a top lad, a really good addition the team can play in midfield and the sixth or the eighth position in the player ranks as well, so he gives them a move, I suppose, make the squad a wee bit stronger, but an excellent addition to the team. Yeah, and so that means you'll, he's involved with your squad at the moment as well then, Declan, you've been keeping a close eye on him, can you play him, can you? Is he available for you? Yeah, I suppose it's, yeah listen, he can play for 19s, he's under 19s, so there's, therefore, the players that are involved in the first team as Slaggome players can play on the 19s, yeah, so Johnny Kenny would be another one, he's underage, but listen, he's been playing, so if they're not playing for the first team, they can play for the under-19s, which, you know, they need to be doing it at a regular basis, obviously to keep their fitness levels up, but yeah listen, they have some really good players and Slaggome have given good opportunities to the young lads to excel and a large part of their squad is home-based players. Yeah, will he be available for you on the game of Sunday, you saw it Sunday afternoon? The moment I'm not 100% sure, I'm not on the scene actually, so I'm not 100% sure, I would welcome, I would welcome to have him, but yeah listen, it's a difficult one because obviously Slaggome are in Europe as well actually, so there's the European and the first team have to stay within the COVID bubble as well, so they can't be involved in two squads, so probably not, probably won't be available, but hopefully whenever Slaggome are not involved in European football, hopefully I'll get them players back playing for the under-19s. Okay, I'll put you on the spot there, so we'll look at the leaders, St Patrick's Athletic, against Bohemians, Georgie Kelly will be looking to add to his, totally he's been in brilliant scoring form for Bohemians and he's up against a former side as well. It's going to be an interesting double in Derby, will Pat still be top of the table after this one, Declan? Yeah, that's an interesting one, you know, I'm in Georgie Kelly 11 goals this season, you know, he's going really well, a lot better than he'd done last year obviously, scoring goals, has that confidence, scoring big goals as well, crucial times, he's scored obviously a couple of hat-tricks as well on top of that, but he's probably been the player of the year so far in the league, so yeah, this is going to be a big threat to St Pat's. It's an interesting one, it's obviously a double in Derby and in normal circumstances, there'll be a big crowd at that game with the really good atmosphere, so it's just hard to know, I mean St Pat's don't give too much away, Bohes scored a lot of goals, so something's got to get out of there, I'm probably expecting to draw out of that one, probably, I think it'll be a scorer's draw, yeah, so. Yeah, one of the match as well, Shamrock overs against Indokbe, these two have been involved in some tremendous games, of course, in recent history. Rovers are the defending champions, it's all changed at the Indok, can the Indok get a result at the Tala Stadium? Yes, they haven't found their top-end form as much as they would want this year, Deckton, but I'm sure it's a game Indok will be up for. Yeah, that's the big match for both clubs, I suppose now, they played each other I think three times, Shamrock Rovers, they played each other in the Presidential Cup at the start of the season, that went to families and Don Dock came out on top, Shamrock Rovers beat them already one now in Tala and in order to practice, Don Dock turned over in 2-1, so for instance, I'm expecting Shamrock Rovers potentially to get three points here, but listen, you just don't know that the Don Dock team, Shamrock Rovers, Richie Tiles was coming on board, so he's available for selection, so for instance, see will he play against Don Dock, his whole club as well, so he's a welcome addition to the Shamrock Rovers squad and first team, and he's been a quality from that midfield area, maybe they're missing that a wee bit, they're not as free-flowing and scoring as much as they normally do, Shamrock Rovers, but they're getting over the line and without playing particularly well, they're still top of the table along with St Pat's and Slager Rovers, it was a big game for both clubs, very interesting to see how this is going to pan out, will we see the better Don Dock team or will we see the team that's played all year, where they've lacked a week of confidence and have lost a lot of games. Okay, listen Deckton, as always, thanks for joining us, enjoy the football at the weekend. Thank you, Ashton.


Hey guys, it's Jen from iCreateCrafts today. I'm going to show you how to make this cute countdown to Christmas signage. So simple to make you do not want to miss out. So I'm starting in design space and I'm going to do something different. I'm going to go up to my projects and I'm going to find the one I'm going to use. And it's going to be this one. And I'm going to customize it. So I am going to first start by selecting all and I'm going to change the size and the width since I already know the size and the width of my board that I'm using. So I'm going to change it to eight and a half by 22. So here it is. I'm going to make my screen a little bit smaller that we can see this and I'm going to change the color a bit. I'm going to ungroup it and then I'm going to click out and change the color manually so that it's already ungrouped. I'm going to click on the Mary part and I'm going to change it to red.  I'm going to put red. Then I want to change Christmas and I want to change that to green. So with that part highlighted, I'm going to go back to the box and find a green and it doesn't have to match the color of your vinyl. It's just what color it's going to print out. I want to do the same with the little star here. So I want to change it yellow and then I'll do the same with the ornament and I think I'll change it to yellow as well. So I changed all the colors that I wanted to but there's also one thing down here. I think I'm going to change the number 25 if it will let me. So I have it selected and I'm ungroup it. I want to change 25 to maybe a red color. I was either thinking red or green. This color to red and I'm using the same color up here so that it's the same. If I was to pick this by accident it would cut it out separately. So there because I'm going to take this 25 since I already attached it and it's going to bring it up here for me and I'm going to hide it and it's going to make this process much easier. So with the hidden I'm going to go ahead and select 1 through 24 and I'm going to manually attach that. So that means that it'll cut these numbers out as you see them. It's not going to move it. So I'm going to bring back the number 25. So I'm going to find it on the side up here and then it puts it back. So that will cut out separately. So that will cut out with your merry but it's as simple as that. So I'm going to make this and I'll show you how it looks.  I'm just like this. You don't have to reorder or try to put them in a specific spot. So it cuts out all the numbers and then it's going to cut out the merry and then the 25. But just I'm going to move this under here to save a little bit of vinyl because I only need the merry and then 25 separate. Then I'm going to check on this one quick and here we go. Here's different ones. So I'm just going to move this one over just a little bit. But I like how it looks. So I'm going to click on the first one and make sure that this one cuts first. So I'm going to put my black vinyl on my mat and then I'm going to go ahead and throw it through the Cricut and cut it out. And then I will weed it out and I will show you the next part. All right. So I have everything cut out and then turned out really great. So here's a Christmas and the merry and the 25 and then the ornaments and then the numbers. I also have some transfer tape here and then here's my board all finished. It's all painted on both sides and it's nicely sanded. So the vinyl should stick to it really well. So let's get started. So I think I'm going to start maybe at the top and work my way down. So I'm going to take this 25 off quick. If you remember I cut this all together so it would be easier and save on some vinyl. So I just have some transfer tape and I'm just going to take the little 25 off of here first. So I'm just going to carefully put it on here.  Then I'm going to take my numbers and then I'm going to carefully put it where it belongs there. Then again just use my fingers and scrape it out just for this one part here. So that part is finished. So the next part I want to do is start with the merry on top and then the Christmas. I think I like it right there. So I'm just going to go ahead and do the same thing with the transfer tape. Just take the transfer tape off, put it over the merry and then this time I'm going to use my scraper. Make sure I get everything up and then I like to do things backwards. So I flip it upside down and then I go from that way. This helps me see if I'm missing anything. So before I start I think I'm going to maybe just do the next one, the Christmas one. Again I like to flip it over and work on the backside and then just peel it back. There, whoops, but I did get stuck on this one. Careful, yeah. Okay, so with them both done I'm just going to gently put it here and hopefully it won't stick. So then I'm going to take the Christmas and kind of line it up where I want to go. So maybe roughly there. So I'm going to peel this one up and then start this one in the middle. That's where these grid lines come in. And then I can kind of gauge on the sides. I like it there. So then take your scraper again and then you can peel it off just nice and slowly, making sure you leave it all on. And then work with the next piece and just kind of line it up however you want it. You want to make sure you get the edges lined up well too and lay it down. Use your scraper again. Once you think you got it on really well you can peel it back. Whoops, hope you have a little one coming off. Just rub it with your finger. There. You may just like to lightly go over it and make sure every piece is stuck on there.  And I'm just going to use these two ones but I am going to cut them apart so that it's easier. And I don't remember offhand what it looked like or where this went. So I'm just going to use my imagination and kind of place it wherever I want. So maybe I'll put that guy there so he's a little bit bigger. And then I'll just put this guy up in the corner here. And I'm not going to let my transfer tape fall because I don't want to peel back my letters I just put down. So just carefully peel it off. Use the scraper I should have. And then the same thing with this. Peel it back. Oops lost a star. Here we go. Oh my gosh I'm loving this already guys. I hope you're liking it. This is a lot of fun. So with that done I'm going to clean my area quick and then the next part is to put your numbers on. So you can see I have enough room at the top. I have enough room at the top and the bottom. I like to have a little bit of extra space on the bottom so you can kind of work with it. So I'm going to take another big piece of transfer tape and then since this is a little bit bigger I'm only going to do a little bit at a time. So I'm just going to take the transfer tape and then line it up with my grid and once you have it where you want it you can see I still have the back on this. So as I pull it I'm going to rub the other transfer tape on so that there's no bubbles which just makes a little bit easier that you get it where you want it and then you just take your scraper again, scrape really well. You get all the numbers put on. Again I always go backwards or upside down however you want to say it and then carefully peel back.  I like it here so once you look on the edges I look at the edges see how much room I have on each side and then once you've got it where you want it again just scrape it down. Once you get it scraped down really well take a corner and start peeling. Alright guys that was a lot of fun. So here it is. So another thing I'm going to show you for my so I can tell which day it is. I bought these little wreaths from the dollar store and they came in three and then what you're going to want to do is you can take a pin or you can use a nail but I'm going to use a white nail and just nail each one.

And you should not watch this movie I'm about to talk about, The Evil Dead Rise. Sorry for yelling at you. Let's begin. ["The Evil Dead Rise"] You know, a lot of people on the internet tell me that Scream is the most consistent horror film in all of cinema, but I think they're wrong. I think Evil Dead is. We have Evil Dead 1, phenomenal, original. We have Evil Dead 2, a great follow-up. We have The Army of Darkness, just as good. Nye, even better in my book. I like the comedy aspect. I like the dark humor. We had an ash spin-off TV series. We had another Evil Dead movie a few years back. And here we are again, 2023, The Evil Dead Rise. And I have to tell you something, the cycle is unbroken. It's still fantastic. A lot of things in this movie, oh my, did you hear that? I think it was a demon saying that if you don't subscribe to this channel right now, it's going to kill me. And I don't think you want blood on your hands. So make sure to subscribe to the channel. This is Written and Directed by Lee Cronin. Oh, you don't know who that is? Do you even watch movies, bro? I'm genuinely asking, because I have no idea who Lee Cronin is. And I looked him up on IMDb and I found a bunch of art.  But clearly, one of them really struck a chord and they gave him this big property. And he freaking nailed the look. He nailed the tone. He nailed everything about it.  Right out of the gates, it starts up, firing on all cylinders. There's blood, there's drama, there's scares. And then it just continues on that track. For an hour and 30 some minutes, it doesn't overstay its welcome. It has a nice clip. These are how movies are supposed to be, folks. None of this three hour artsy fartsy stuff that I'm hearing is out right now. I haven't seen it yet. Might need someone to pay me to go to that one. I should say this is gonna be spoiler-free. Probably should have started with that, I apologize. And in editing, I could put this at the beginning, but I mean, come on. We have things to do. Quick plot synop, short for synopsis. Ellie lives in a pretty crappy apartment.  And she'd probably be the first to admit that. She's got a couple kids she's raising, a husband who's out of the picture, and the place they're living at is going to be condemned in a month. So she has to get out of dodge with the family. It means pack up the bags. It's a whole process. It's a whole project. If you've ever moved before, I mean, I don't envy anyone who's in that position, especially when you're in a dilapidated building trying to move on to probably the next dilapidated building. She's got a couple neighbors down the hall, but for the most part, it's a very quiet place. That is until an earthquake kicks up and her son stumbles upon the Book of the Dead. And what does he do with the Book of the Dead? Well, he opens it, of course, which unleashes an unspeakable evil upon the world. One that's going to infect, corrupt, take possession of the mother, and the rest of it is herstory.  And I'm gonna leave the story there. So she's got her kids.  And it's really just a survival picture inside of this apartment complex for 95% of the film. Child actors can sometimes scare people. They're all freaking great. Do they screw up?   It's plausible. It's somewhat believable. And I was all in on the ride. This movie's intense. It's dark. It's disturbing, but it's also fun at times. It's playful at times. It really gets the evil dead mantra down. Now I opened by saying, if you get queasy early, this definitely is not a movie for you. There is throwing up. There is cheese grater to skin. There's eyes popping. There's flesh peeling. There's blood oozing out of every orifice of this building and its residents. Color gradients topped here. Sound design is some of the best in the business right now. The music, the audio, the volume was in my ears until they bled. This thing is loud in the theater. And that's the only negative I have about this movie. No, not the noise from the movie, but the inhabitants of the theater itself. We'll get to that at the end. But I just have to say a lot of praise for this one. You know exactly what you're gonna get. A gory good time from start to finish. I wouldn't miss it in the theater. Honestly, it looks so good on the big screen and with that surround sound, you didn't know. You really didn't know if you could have got killed in that theater because of the beautiful pitch perfect noises taking place. I wanna hear from you. Did you see this movie already? Did you love it? Am I right? Or are you a little bit trepiditious to go in? I'm telling you, it's worth your time. Like this video if you had some good time as well. Please subscribe if you haven't, I'm begging you. I told you off camera, I'm being threatened. My life is on the line, man. Hit that subscribe button. I know it comes off as desperate, but honestly, we get desperate, right? We get desperate. And hopefully I'll catch you next time. Now, if you haven't left, I had a good run. I had a good run for a long time in the theater. I was seeing movies, people were keeping quiet, the phones were off. That ship has sailed, and that ship has failed because the audience that I dealt with last night by myself, because my buddy, Bless, no show ghosted me. Yeah, I'll be there at 9.45, Adam, where is he at? He's not here. He's not here. Didn't show up. You know who did show up? Couple of vaping in front of me. You know who else showed up? Douchebag on his phone the whole movie. You know who else showed up? People wandering in, seamlessly off the streets, 35, 45 minutes into the movie's runtime. What? What is going on with this movie? That it's bringing in all these douchebags. I was furious, but it's not like it was one person that I could say, hey, could you keep it down or hey, could you get off your phone? It's the whole theater, all of them. So I did the only thing I could do. I turned to the dark arts. I opened up the book of the dead. I happened to have one in my pocket, keep it with me. Unlocked it, unclasped the teeth, opened it up for some reason at Creeks, like an old cellar door, blew off the debris or a debris, if you say things wrong, off the pages, sifted through them until I found the spell that I wanted to cast. It's not a wizarding book. I don't know why I said it like that. And then I read the words in the Latin tongue, which would give me the ability to kill everyone in this theater. It would give me superhuman strength. Of course, yes, I would be possessed. I would not be me anymore. I would cease to exist. The demon would take over. But at this point, I felt like there was already a demon inside of me ready to rise up and kill every fucker in here. So I read the passage and then I was taken hold of. And what came out next was not something that you put on screen. Not something that you take the family to with a bucket of popcorn and a soda pop. Nobody should see what I did to these people. First person starts yapping over there. I take my hand, insert it in between his teeth and then push down. His jaw is gone on the floor, but why waste it?  The remnants are all over the ground. Another person who's walking in, 45 minutes to the movie for the first time.  They're just coming in now.  This guy's bent over, completely toasted. There's a kid way underage watching this movie, five, six years old.   Not the boy. I let the boy live. He needs to grow up to tell this tale. I'm talking about his mom, who was gabbing the whole movie and constantly checking her Facebook feed to try to be important. You're not important.  They might now though, because Johnny Appleseed up front's been filming this whole thing.  She's dead. Blood is pulsating out. It's spraying up like a geyser. I'm about ready to get my swim trunks on. Grab a flotation device and just kind of have a day of it. Woo! But there's way too many more people to kill. There's just not enough time. This is where the demon powers really take hold of me as I shoot up to the ceiling. I'm like a spider now, crawling along, scurrying.  I exorcist over this guy and just start projectile vomiting.  His face is melting away. He falls down into a pile of bones like a Mortal Kombat fatality. I dropped down and I got a bone to pick with this guy now. I pick up a couple of them and now I'm like a Pokemon. Who's the one that throws bones? Meralwack?  Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. Hit a guy in the back of the head. He's down for the count. Other one, pfft, pfft. I spin it like a Frisbee. Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. Blood is just sprinkling around and then I start twisting his head and I let it go. So it really is a sprinkler. Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft.  It is disgusting and I'm loving every minute of it. I'm loving every minute of it. I'm loving. Wrap this up at some point. One super fan thought it would be fun to bring a chainsaw in because, you know, Ash and the evil dad and all that nonsense. So pfft, pfft, pfft. He fires this bad boy up like he's limp biscuit. I'm like a chainsaw. What?   Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. Blows his eyeball somehow. His eyeball goes out the other side of the ear. I catch it. Break it. Grab the chainsaw. Pfft, pfft. This guy is in two. Completely collapses on the ground. I then throw the chainsaw. Pfft, pfft, pfft. Another person tries to get away. Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. I go up and grab it. Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. Pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft, pfft. And then I just peel him away. Again, this is like a Mortal Kombat. Kung Lao does that, I think, with a hat. Yeah, that's what I did.  And now there's really nothing left here. Nothing but silence. Blood's dripping down. Leaky soda cans on the ground because they didn't pay for the soda in the theater to try to support their local chain. They brought one in.  Popcorn filled with bones and blood. And me, kicking back, relaxing, acting all cool, fresh Prince of Bel-Air for some reason now.  Chatting with your buddy about something that's unrelated to the movie. Two hours to just sit and let it take you away. Let it scare you. Let it wow you. How did they do this? How did they film this? I was asking myself because I was ghosted.  Thanks for watching.

There are good individual moments Good individual moments there especially with Puccino but the rest of the movie Coppola's daughter much much better director than she is an actor Andy Garcia's role was a little cheesy Plot a little convoluted. Sorry Francis if you're watching I apologize. Just come on. Puccino was great though Well, you got Tyler Boyd hot routes 40 out of 99. I'm a man. I'm 40 More bangles for Justin gutting. We got some Seahawks.

All right three more box here in break number one second Break number two still has like ten Ten teams left boys and girls. Let's get it done.

All right two more box to go Wild card points could be anything from 200 points to like 5,000 points or 10,000 points something crazy like that And that would be randomized to one person in the break winner take all the points So if there's another points card that comes in it'll it'll go as one lot I That's a good question and so is there a first off the line playbook? Maybe there might be We got Denzel Mims 38 out of 49 for the J ETS Jets Jets Jets That'll be for Patrick. We got Rayquan Davis for Miami 19 out of 49 That'll be for Joshua Denzel Mims autograph is kind of funny This tiny little autograph. It's like DM slash dot Dm dash dot Rayquan Davis once again for Josh We've got Devon Bush the second for the Steelers. I feel like they could have used this guy Pittsburgh Michael Gallucci and his Steelers. What happened Michael? All right, and the next one is this a Trifold wow three names on here are these autographs or It's Nexus four out of ten just a triple relic still cool though for my rivals the Broncos So you got KJ Hamler on the right Jerry Judy in the middle and then you've got Drew Locke on the left side four out of ten for The Broncos that'll be for Jerry Bennington and Denver All right, last one Correct Ben. Yeah, Ansel Louis you can you can take the points You have to redeem it and then figure out how many you have in the first place and then And then you could go to the panini reward store and you can pick up a hit a relic Sometimes they sell exclusive packs on the reward site, which you can then Buy and sell if you want to sometimes I think there were some some speckle or sparkle packs that in the past were for Thousand points of ten thousand points me something like that And then you could they were reselling for a hundred bucks on eBay or they have some exclusive hits on inside like a Zion would Go for a ton of money so on and so forth. So over the years that reward store has gotten a lot better Back in the day the points were kind of a curse But but now nowadays there it's actually the reward store is pretty solid Bangles another one for Justin gutting we got Mike Kasicki hot routes 20 out of 25 No, I don't have my own card collection. I have cards laying around my house, but I don't really actively collect I'm lucky enough to To open stuff like this every day So it scratches that itch If I didn't do this for a job, I probably be right where you are We've got a nice goal line graphs mark Ingram one out of 15.
