welcome to my channel for today's video. I am doing a skincare declutter. It is like Sunday afternoon. It is snowing out. I was not going to get ready for this video but I'm moving. We have an apartment. We have a date. I'm so excited. I'm moving to Miami for those of you wondering and I have a lot that I need to do. We have a few weeks though. We have time so I'm actually getting started early and we're starting off with decluttering this. Honestly though after I declutter it and make it all pretty for you guys I'm actually gonna pack most of the stuff because I won't need all of this skincare but here's the thing. I am not a skincare influencer skincare expert by any means but I get sent a lot of skincare too and I've always been like ooh I can't wait to try that but in reality I have very very sensitive skin and I can't be playing around with my skincare routine too often. I very much need to use a product for at least a month and have a routine for at least a month or my skin will go fuck-wild. So it doesn't make sense for me to keep all of the skincare that I've received. So much has gone unused. A lot of the stuff that I have in here I'm like trying to cover it. It's really really old as well. It is going to be thrown away. This should be interesting because I'm not a huge skincare lover so I feel like I'll be able to declutter a lot but at the same time I I do just be curious. Okay let me show you what we're working with here. Okay this is kind of hard to show without exposing my messy background but I have this basically I don't know like a bathroom. I don't want to show you my bathroom. It's so messy but it's the shelving unit thingy from Ikea that I got a few years ago. I don't think they sell this anymore but it's so pretty. I'm trying to see if I can bring this to my apartment because I love it. It just fits all of my skincare a little too well because I've been able to accumulate way too much. If you look towards the bottom here. Sorry if it's shaky. I'm on a tripod that I'm carrying around. That's too big for this room. I have my hair stuff down here but we're mostly going to focus on the skincare stuff. I'll do my hair stuff probably on my own but as you can see right here and right here are what we're going to be focusing on today. All right we'll start off here because most of this stuff is unused and I know for the first time on my channel this is actually going to be a cutthroat declutter. It just isn't as valuable as my makeup to me so the first thing that I see right here is from Pop Beauty. This is the Lit AF Essence. I'm going to be decluttering this because I don't think I'm going to use this. Next up I have this travel size of the glow recipe banana souffle moisture cream. I actually tend to keep these for traveling so this is empty so I'm actually going to clean this out but I'm keeping you know what no I'm just going to throw this way. I don't need this. This is like empty. I got this in a sample. This is the Peter Thomas Roth Instant Firm Temporary Face Ticener. I was going to play around with this for my makeup kit so I'm going to go ahead and keep this. This is the Good Molecules discoloration correcting serum. I have a lot of discoloration in my skin and I love Good Molecules so I'm going to go ahead and keep this. I can see myself adding this in my routine. Please keep in mind that even though I have sensitive skin I am a makeup reviewer and beauty reviewer so I do need to keep some stuff. So I have the ELF Holy Hydration Hydro Gel Moisturizer. I haven't tried this formulation yet but if you're familiar with my channel you know that I absolutely love this skincare line from ELF so I'm going to go ahead and keep this. This is brand new. Most of my new stuff is towards the front so a lot of it will be kept. This is the First Aid Beauty Radiance Reboot. What are these? I don't know what this is but that in of itself tells you I don't need these so I'm going to declutter that. I actually just brought this with me for travel. This is the Glossier Milky Jelly Cleanser. I get a lot of these little samples in my ipsy bag and I love using these for travel so I'm keeping this. This is my current travel cleanser. So this is a hair product. The Bumble and Bumble Hair Duster Invisible Oil. I actually use this every time I do my hair. I need to buy full size eventually so I wanted it within reach but I'm going to put this with my hair product. I'm going to have a hard time with this. This is the Sunday Riley High Dose Retinoid Serum. I mean Sunday Riley is such a good brand and I feel like retinoids is something that my skin is going to benefit from. I haven't used this yet. I have this put aside to try so I think I'm going to go ahead and keep this. As you know Sunday Riley is a really great brand. Okay I gotta buckle down and be a little bit more cut throat here. This one down here. This is one that I'm currently using. I just have it put over to the side but I'm definitely keeping this. If you watch my videos you know this is my Holy Grail Skincare product. This is the Ola Henriksen Glow OH2 Dark Spot Toner. This works. This helps my acne. It helps my acne scars. Definitely keeping this. So here I have this I Do Care Plush Party Vitamin C Lip Mask. This is a great Korean brand that is also quite affordable but I'm going to declutter this. This right here is brand new. I actually posted this in a haul recently. This is the Bare Minerals Ageless Fido AHA Radiance Facial. I'm going to go ahead and keep this because I'm very interested in trying out bare minerals skincare because I feel like they have really great ingredients so I'm going to hold on to this for a little bit. Oh my gosh I said this was going to be cut throat and it's just it's not. This is the Elf Holy Hydration Makeup Melting Cleansing Balm. Always on the hunt for a great cleansing balm so I'm going to go ahead and keep this. And I love that it's elf. Ooh I don't know about this. This is from Pharmacy. It's the poor cleaning toner. I love toners. I think they really work on my skin. I'm going to keep this. Oh my gosh you guys can punish me later but I love Pharmacy as a brand and I do want to try this toner. This is the Neutrogena Bright Boost Gel Cream. I really wanted to give this a try but I've been sitting on my skincare shelf for a while so I'm going to declutter this and give this away because it's brand new. Next I have it the Copaia Coconut Rose Toner and since I'm keeping the Pharmacy I'm going to go ahead and declutter this which makes me really sad because I truly do love Copaia. I just don't need this right now. It's not going to be used at the current moment. We also have the Tropical Glow Cleanser. I might declutter this but I'm going to hold on to it for now because I actually just ran out of the most recent cleanser that I was using so I feel like this actually might be next in line or one of the next ones I use. So I'll see how many cleansers I have and if I don't have a lot then I'll keep this but if I do have a lot of cleansers I want to use ahead of this then I will declutter this. Ooh we have the Pharmacy Sweet Apple Clean Makeup Meltaway Cleansing Balm. This is one of my favorite makeup cleansing balms but I had a sneaking suspicion that this made my skin break out but I'm not sure. It's been a few months. I've gotten my skin under control recently so I'm going to go ahead and give this and if it does make me break out my mom loves this so I will hand this off to her. Next up we have the Sand in Sky Australian Pink Clay Mask. I just never use this so I'm going to go ahead and declutter this. I've used it a couple of times. This needs to be thrown away but I'm going to say goodbye to this. Hiding back here we have the Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Serum. I love the idea of a hyaluronic acid serum but I think I have a couple in here so I'm going to go ahead and declutter this. Next up I have this Saturday Skin Vitamin C Sleep Mask. I really really like this but I actually already have one open that I'm currently using and I don't use it religiously like I probably should so that's a sign to declutter this. Next I have the Kate Somerville Goat Milk Moisturizing Cream. I really like Kate Somerville's products so I'm going to hold on to this. If I have too many moisturizers then I'm going to declutter this but I don't think I have another moisturizer right now that I've decided to keep so I'm going to hold on to this unless I find more moisturizers. Next I have the Sand in Sky Australian Emu Apple Super Bounce Mask. It's great as this looks. I haven't used this. This honestly has been in here for over a year so I'm going to go ahead and declutter this. Here I have a little travel of my Erno Lasso Detoxifying Cleansing Oil. This is my favorite all-time cleansing oil and I keep this for travel so this is going to go ahead and be kept as you can see. I use a lot of it. Oh I really love Ines Free. This is the Intensive Hydrating Serum with Green Tea Seed. Hmm do I want this? I love Ines Free. Wow and look it's in completely recyclable package. Is it a moisturizer? I mean it's a serum that delivers a lot of hydration. Oh I'm going to keep this. This one's awesome. Oh my gosh I've completely forgot I have this. I'm going to go back and I keep this and definitely declutter that because it's much bigger than I thought. Next we have the I Do Care Berry Melting Makeup Remover Bomb. Again like I said I love makeup remover bombs but I've already cut the pharmacy and the elf so I'm going to give this away. I have a few I Do Care so let's do this one next. This is the Balancing Heart Leaf Clay Mask. I don't use clay masks too often so I'm decluttering this. Here is the Juicy Kitten Purifying Power Green Serum also from I Do Care. I'm going to declutter this. I also have an I Do Care applicator for the mask. I'm going to declutter that and give that to somebody who will use it. Here is the I Do Care Vitamin to Glow Pack. This is a great set. I wanted to keep this for myself because it had a mask, a lip mask, a moisturizing gel, and a vitamin C Brightening Serum but I'm going to give this to somebody who will use it because I won't. So yeah. Here is another Sand and Sky product. I love their marketing here. This is the Australian Pink Glay Smoothing Body Sand. So this isn't even the face. This is for the body. I like my Kopari body stuff so I'm going to declutter this. See what do we have here? You can see we've made huge progress. This is the I Do Care Glow Easy Moisturizing Lip Oil. Why do I have all this I Do Care stuff in here? This isn't even skincare. I'm going to declutter this. This is so cute. This has a bunch of different masks from I Do Care. We have a holographic peel off mask. Okay. I think I'm going to keep this because I do love to play with random masks and this is a great way to try different ones. So I'm keeping that. Let me show you what we have left. There we go. Dang. I should put a mask on right now while I'm here. Okay. I have this Elemis Superfood Vital Veggie Mask. I'm going to declutter this because I haven't used it in a while. Then we have the Pharmacy Bright On Vitamin C Mask. I'm going to go ahead and keep this because like I said I love Pharmacy as a brand. This is one of the masks that I want to incorporate into my routine. I have a couple Honeymoon Glows from Pharmacy. These are really night. They are in AHA resurfacing night serum. I do not need two. So I'm going to keep one. I actually do use this like I'll use the bottle and then I'll give my skin a break from it and then I'll use it again. So I've been keeping these for backup but truly I only need one. Then we have the Pharmacy Honey Potion Renewing Anti-Oxidant Hydration Mask. I absolutely love this. This is one of my favorite masks. It's one where you rub it into your skin. It gets warm. It's really really awesome. I'm going to keep this. I know I'll use this. Next we have the Rail Beauty Spot Corrector. So this is supposed to help your spots I guess from what I can see. I'm going to declutter this. I don't see myself using this. Next we have the Dr. Brands Hydrobiotic Recovery Sleeping Mask. I love sleeping masks but I currently have one that I am going through. So I'm going to declutter this. Here is another cleanser that I love. I've already gone through like two of these. So you know I'm keeping the Pharmacy Clean B Ultra Gentle Facial Cleanser. This is a staple one in my rotation so I'm definitely keeping this. What the heck? I have another honeymoon glow. I'm going to declutter this one because why do I need three of these? Next I have the Milani Replenishing Moisturizer. I wanted to keep this because I wanted to have a drugstore moisturizer to try. So this is what I'm going to hold on to. These I thought were really really cool so I've been holding on to them. These are the Neutrogena Rapid Tone Repair Vitamin C Serums because they have these little capsules that you push and the serum comes out. But honestly I haven't reached for it. I've already kept a couple toners so I'm going to declutter this. I have a sample of the Laneige Water Sleeping Mask. I really enjoy this. I think my skin really agrees with this so I'm going to keep this. Huh I think I must have gotten this in an ipsy or something. This is the Laboratories Philorega Oxygen Glow Eyes. I think yes this is an eye care moisturizer so it's for your under eyes. I am going to declutter this. I don't see myself using it. Okay this is going to be hard. I love good molecules. I have a bunch here. So we have the Instant Cleansing Balm from Good Molecules. I love to promote good molecules because their ingredients are good as well as they're affordable so I'm going to keep this. Oh I think I'm going to keep everything. I just can't not. I've kept these specific products for a reason. We have the Pineapple Exfoliating Powder. I love a good exfoliator. I feel like it's really great for somebody like me who has a lot of acne scars. I'm just going to have to use it. That's what I'm going to need to remind myself to do. Then I have the Ultra Hydrating Facial Oil. My plan was to use this when I finished my Biosance one. So I'm definitely keeping this. I love a good facial oil. Then we have the Hyaluronic Acid Serum. I told you guys earlier I know I have some other hyaluronic acid serums in my collection and this is the one that I wanted to use. And then we have the Overnight Exfoliating Treatments. I can only keep so many exfoliating treatments. I'm aware but it's good molecules so I want to keep it. Last product. I absolutely love LMS stuff. And I think I have some more LMS stuff that I'll share with you in a moment. So I'm going to declutter this but this is awesome. This is the Pro Collagen Marine Cream. I just have a lot of creams and some other ones I'm going to consider. So I'm going to get rid of this. I just refilled. I actually had more skincare products in another corner of my bathroom that I didn't know what to do with because I had no space. So this is that stuff. Let's go through it. So first I have this Saturday Skin Rub-A-Dub Refining Peel Drill. I actually use this a few times but I really just don't reach for it very often. So I'm going to throw this away. Then I have this from LMS. This is the Super Food Facial Oil. This is a facial oil that I definitely want to add into my routine once I finish the ones I'm working on. I love a good facial oil so I really want to try this one out. This must have been from an Ipsy Bag. This is the Culture Biome One Serum. I'm really not sure what this is but the fact that I don't know should tell me to declutter this. Oh my gosh, look. Another honeymoon glow for pharmacy. There was no reason for me to have three so I will give this away. This, oh my gosh. I remember I really wanted to try this but that has died down. This is the Amora Visc Ha Boot. It's a cleanser but I don't know. Really not sure what this is. It's made in Switzerland and it looked interesting but ultimately I'm just not going to use it. So we'll pass that one on. I've heard amazing things for this. Just haven't been able to incorporate it into my routine recently because the last few months I've been severely breaking out but that's going away. So I'm looking forward to trying this. This is a Shantakai Blue Light Protection Hyaluronic Serum. Shantakai creates top of the line skincare so I definitely want to hold on to this. Okay I have a collection you'll see of Ren skincare. So eventually I want to really dive into Ren skincare and create a whole routine for myself and see if it improves my skin. I've heard great things about the brand. So I'm keeping all of this stuff for once I feel my skin's ready for that. Expect eventually a few months down the line for me to talk about their skincare. It's clean and I think my skin should like it. So we have the Daily AHA Tonic which I believe is like a toner. I'll have to do more research on this but like I said I'm keeping all the Ren stuff. This I'm impatiently waiting to try. This is the Overnight Glow Dark Spot Sleeping Cream. So this is supposed to help reduce your dark spots overnight. Then we have this Global Protection Daily Cream. So this is just supposed to be for every day to nourish the skin. We also have the Clean Screen Mineral SPF. Absolutely keeping this. You can never ever ever have too many SPFs I feel like and this looks like something I'm very interested in. I don't have too much experience with clean mineral sunscreens. This is the last product from Ren. This is the Overnight Recovery Balm. So this sounds really nice as well so I'll have to get this to try. Okay up here hiding I have the Kopari California Glow Enzyme Scrub. So this is a scrub for the skin. I have saved a lot of masks in this video so I'm going to declutter this. Man I love Josie Moran. This is the Whipped Argan Oil Face Butter. As much as I want to keep this. I think Josie Moran's brand is incredible particularly the body lotions. But I have too many creams. So I'm going to oh I'm really sad but I just don't need that. Okay I have this Pharmacy. This is the Honey Pop Mask. It's just a mini version honestly. I've had this for a while so I'm going to throw this away. Next we have this from Polish Choice. Another really great skin care brand. This is a C15 Super Booster. So I'm trying to figure out what it is. It must be use alone or added to your favorite moisturizer or serum. I'm not really sure what this is. I don't want to look too far into it in case I regret it. So we'll just get that away. Okay Murad. What is this from Murad? We have the it's an SPF 30 Moisturizer. Huh I really have been liking Murad stuff. Lately. But I'm not going to do it. I have too many moisturizers but that looks interesting. See those Jersey Moran and Murad stuff just because I know I love the brand. I'm like triple thinking about. Okay then we have this Skin Cuticles Daily Brightening Defense sunscreen. Because it's a sunscreen I'm going to go ahead and keep it because I love testing out different sunscreens. I'm moving to Florida very soon. So I'm definitely going to go ahead and keep this moisturizer. Not moisturizer sunscreen. Okay LMS is a great brand. So we have the Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads. I really love these types of products for my texture. So I'm going to keep this. I haven't specifically tried this one yet. But I'm going to keep it. Ooh this is good. It's been a while since I've used this. I actually finished a whole one of these up. So I'm going to keep this. This is the Drunk Elephant TLC Sugari Baby Facial. This is really great for resurfacing the skin. So I'm going to keep this.  I don't know.  Okay so we have the Milani Avocado Makeup Melter. I already saved a couple makeup melters so I'm going to declutter this. But it is not with ease that I declutter that. Speaking of here is another cleansing balm. This is from LMS. My mom loves LMS so I'm going to keep this. I just said I didn't need it but I want it okay. I have a harder time with brands that I know I love. Okay so this is brand new. I'm definitely keeping this. I have never tried the ever so famous Pixie Glow Tonic before. And look at this. This is it has my name on it. So I'm keeping that. Okay guys so now we're going to work on this part next. This is the last of my skincare. I'm actually going to put everything down here because my tripod's not tall enough. So give me a moment. But this is what it looks like. So this is a set from Grande Cosmetics and I already used one of the things in here. Oh no I gave it to my grandma that's what I did. Throwing away the packaging but I'm definitely keeping the lash serum because you know how expensive lash serums are. We also have a microfiber towel. I think that will come in handy for me. We have a little mini sample of Charlotte's Magic Cream. Let me see if it's dried out because I'm definitely keeping it if it's not. Do you know how valuable this cream is? Oh look this is kind of dried out. This is expired so I'm going to get rid of that. Okay so I see another Ren skincare product right here. This is the Evercomb anti redness serum. Keeping this for my Ren skincare attempt. Then I have you can see my backups of my Grande Lash. I'm going to condense them but again these are expensive. So I'm keeping them.  I got these with my makeup fridge. They're basically just spring water to spritz your face with. I feel like these will be really nice when I'm in Florida but I don't need this many so I'm going to keep like one. And then the rest I'll give away. Okay in the corner hiding over here we have this Pixi 24K iLixir. I just don't need it so I'm going to declutter that. Okay so I've kept these. These are fairly new but they're just so cute. I don't know what to do with them. So these are different Pixi masks. So let me see what we're working with. I think I'll keep one. So we have a milky remedy mask for soothing toning. This rose is for nourishing and then vitamin C is for raining. I think I will keep the nourishing and then we'll get rid of these two. I just don't need that many you know. Also have the Pixi hydrating milky makeup remover. I feel like I can never have too many makeup removers. So I'm definitely keeping that. And we have the hydrating milky serum from Pixi. I just am not in need of any serums at the current moment. It's a soothing serum. Well I think I'm going to declutter this. I wish I had more than one face so that I could try all this. But I just can't you know. Then I have this origin skincare set. There's an eye cream and many other things. Let me declutter that. So then we have the Pixi milky tonic. Keeping the glow tonic. I'm going to declutter this. But this looks like I want to keep it. But I'm not. Let me be smart here. I don't need to. I'm going to have a hard time with this. Just because I know this is more expensive. This is the Armani Criminara Supreme Renewing Mask. I'm going to keep this because I know this has value. And I was gifted this just a few months ago. Yeah keeping that. Slowly because I'm sure it's expensive. I've never tried Armani skincare before. I have some more stuff hiding back here. So I have a little Tatcha Dewy Skin Cream. Is there a product in here? Oh yeah this is gold. I've actually been using the Dewy Cream lightly as my moisturizer. So I'm keeping that for sure. Next I have this Dr. Yves Ryouth Vitamin C Night Moisturizer. I've actually used this a couple of times. But I'm going to declutter this. Just I have too many moisturizers. I also have the Elf All the Fields Facial Oil. Since I've kept like two other facial oils, we'll declutter this. I also have the Kate Somerville ExfoliCate Glow Moisturizer. I did already decide to keep a different Kate Somerville Moisturizer. So I'm going to declutter this. And this I just got in my Ipsy. It's a bunch of different styles of masks. Let me show you. And it looks fun. Like there's oil at the bottom. So I'm keeping these. What is this? Oh these are hair products. Huh. Oh and they're okay. This is for travel. Oh my gosh. I didn't even know I have this. Next time I travel I am bringing these. These are a verb. Ghost shampoo. Keeping that for sure. That's great for travel. Let's see what I have in here. We have the Pixi Rose Oil Blend Nurshing Face Oil. Again I don't need another face oil. So we'll declutter that. I like this. I've used this a couple of times I think right. This is the one I've tried. Yeah I'm keeping this one. This is the I love a good moisturizer guys. The Kopari Peptide Glow Hydrating Moisturizer. Gonna keep that. Not that I need to. It's not I didn't need. It's out of one. I have another water thing. Let me declutter that. It's in here. Oh another good molecules product. Again I want to do just like with Ren. I want to do this with good molecules. This is the Glycolic Exfoliating Toner. Not even open this. Good molecules really intrigues me. And I really do feel like they come out with such good products. And it's a toner. I'm keeping it. A lot of this stuff I know is old. So I'm gonna declutter it. It's like this Dr. Brandt Pours Vacuum Mask. That has to be old. Same thing with this Wonder Beauty Lift Off Mask. That's definitely old. I think I have a lot of masks in here. But all of these. This is definitely older. A pharmacy sleep type firming night balm. The Niche. Yeah. Okay everything in this bin I have not seen in a really long time. So this all definitely needs to be decluttered. So Jace. Okay. I'm gonna bend down for this. So that is all my skincare. The only skincare you haven't seen is the skincare that's on my sink. That I'm currently using. I do have a few sheet masks and whatnot that I'm keeping in my skincare fridge right now. But I'm going to fill up these two shelves. And I'll let you know if I reevaluate anything. But I'm keeping a lot of skincare on. Geez. Why am I like this? Much better now. Now obviously I still have like a lot of skincare. No person needs this much. But you can see it's so much more manageable. I know I didn't show you guys this. But I keep a lot of my backups here. I have my home pills. My deodorants. I don't know how I collected so much last rooms. Some shower stuff. Just extras up top. Here I kind of organized by brand. So I have my rent and my good molecules. Because like I said these are two brands that I really want to do dedicated skincare routines for. I also have all of my masks and patches in here. And then this side down here is a little bit more random. Just the rest of my skincare products that I want to try. I have some bigger items in here just because they fit. But I have my travel skincare stuff. Oh it's so much better though. So much more organized for me to look at. And then here I just keep my hair stuff. My nail stuff. Stuff like that. But wow it's so much better. Anyways thank you guys so much for watching this decluttered video. I hope you enjoyed it. Oops I almost forgot to show you the damage. It's the next day. I was waiting till the sun was out so I can show you. But these are all of the skincare products. I am either decluttering or throwing away. Giving away whatever. Look at all that. It's ridiculous that I was hoarding all of this. Here we go. Pretty impressive though. Skincare was definitely a lot easier for me to give away than my precious makeup jewels. I'm actually not even gonna keep this stuff in here for long. I'm about to pack it this evening. But I at least wanted to see it clean. So if you aren't subscribed to my channel already. I would love it if you would consider taking this time to do so. And I will see you guys in the next one. Bye guys. Have a good one.


Share your fourth of July using the hashtag archives July 4. Now after the ceremony please don't miss our special Declaration of Independence signing booth and following the ceremony will be set up inside the museum's Boeing Learning Center with other great family activities. So stick around enjoy the day and celebrate our independence. Most of you are already standing but if you're not please rise for the presentation of the colors by the United States Army Continental Color Guard followed by Ms. Crystal Moser singing the National Anthem. Oh say can you see by the dawn's early what's so proud at the twilight's last gleaming whose broad stripes and bright stars through. Now to give us the sounds of Colonial America we have the United States Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps. Now their uniforms are from the Roof Revolutionary War era and so is their music. I am pleased to present specialist Nikolai Faduček to narrate their performance please join me in welcoming the Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps. Good morning ladies and gentlemen the United States Army Military District of Washington under the command of Brigadier General Omar Jones is proud to present the United States Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps. United States Infantry Regiment the Old Guard traces its lineage back to George Washington's original Continental Army and today serves as the Army's official escort to the President of the United States. In 1960 the Fife and Drum Corps was organized to participate in official ceremonies and to revive our country's musical heritage. From the days of the American Revolution through the 19th century Fife's drums and bugles were vital to military order and discipline. Field musicians were used to issue commands during battle and to regulate the duty day signaling when to rise when to eat and when the day ends. This morning's show paints a series of pictures from the life of a Continental soldier musician. We open at the beginning of the duty day with the training scene. In the 18th century signals like a tension and breakfast call would have sent the soldiers into action. Here we begin with those signals and accompany their daily training with marching tunes including drums and guns and simple joshia. The soldiers of the United States Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps wear uniforms patterned after those of General Washington's Continental Army. In order to be easily identified military musicians wore the reverse colors of the regiment to which they were assigned. At that time American infantry soldiers wore blue coats with red facings. Thus the musicians wore red coats with blue facings. Traditionally the most skilled drummer was given the title of drum major and was chosen to lead the musicians. Today the drum major who stands before you wears the light infantry cap and issues silent commands using the S-bond tune and adapted 18th century weapon. At the end of the day troops would often gather around the campfire to relax and the musicians would provide entertainment. Picture yourselves in such a setting now as we feature the Fife and Bugle groups in a scene reminiscent of the soldiers respite following a challenging day. At a moment's notice the soldier is summoned from camp finding himself marching resolutely to the battlefield. As tensions mount the musicians relay the commander's orders to the troops firing commences and the chaos built to a fierce percussive climax. We will now feature the United States Army Old Guard Fife and Drum Corps drum line in a battle feature. Lost in battle we open our final scene with the mournful tune Roslyn Castle. The lament is brief though as we transition to a celebration of life and close our show with the triumphal soldiers return during which the corps will honor you with the stately and traditional troop step. Half of the Old Guard commander Colonel James J. Tewitt and the Fife and Drum Corps commander Chief Warrant Officer 5 Aaron Graff. It has been our pleasure performing for you today and we wish you all a happy Independence Day. Thank you specialists for do check and the Old Guard. Let's have another rousing round of applause. Even though this is the permanent home of the Declaration of Independence that extraordinary piece of parchment is just one of billions of documents held in trust by the National Archives. The piece of paper photographs films in the holdings of the National Archives tell the story of democracy in these United States and the mission of the National Archives is to make these documents available to you, the American people. Now I'd like to introduce a very important person to whom our nation has entrusted the care of the Declaration of Independence. David Ferriero is the Archivist of the United States. David S. Ferriero was sworn in as the 10th Archivist of the United States in 2009. Previously Mr. Ferriero served as the Andrew W. Mellon Director of New York Public Libraries. Before that Mr. Ferriero served in top positions at two of the nation's major academic libraries, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts and Duke University in Durham, North Carolina. Mr. Ferriero holds degrees from North Eastern University in Boston and the Simmons College of Library and Information Science also in Boston. He also served in the Navy as a hospital corpsman during the Vietnam War. Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. David Ferriero Archivist of the United States. Thank you Allison and thanks for joining us this year as emcee of our July 4th activities. Good morning. It's great to see you here to help us celebrate the 243rd anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and special greetings to those of you in our presidential libraries around the country who are watching this via live stream. The 4th of the 4th of July starts here at the National Archives. Through that door behind us is the original Declaration of Independence that seminal documents signed by our founding fathers enshrined in the rotunda of this building. Although a typeset version of the Declaration was printed on July 4th 1776, the official government record on parchment was created and signed weeks later on August 2nd. I'm a lucky man. Every day I get to visit the Declaration and marvel at its very existence. The fact that it has survived for 240 years given its history is truly remarkable. This parchment has traveled extensively. While the National Archives opened in 1935, the Declaration did not arrive here until 1952. During the Revolutionary War, it traveled with continental Congress and moved to Philadelphia, Baltimore, Philadelphia again, Lancaster, Pennsylvania for only a day and then on to Princeton, New Jersey. At the end of the war in 1783, Congress was meeting in Annapolis, Maryland, then moved to Trenton, New Jersey. For five years from 1785 to 1790, the Declaration's home was in New York City. In 1789, the Secretary of State was directed to take control of all records, books and papers created by the national government and the Declaration went back to Philadelphia until this new federal city, the city of Washington was built in 1800. When the British were burning Washington during the War of 1812, Secretary of State James Monroe directed State Department clerks to get the important documents out of town. One of these clerks, Stephen Pleasanton, is my hero. He wrapped the Declaration and other precious documents in bags of linen, commandeered a wagon and in the dead of night headed for Virginia with the records of the country just in the nick of time. The next day, the White House was burning but the Declaration was safely hidden in an unused grist mill near Chain Bridge in Virginia, then moved to a private home in Leesburg until the war was over. During the 1800s, the Declaration was on exhibit for long periods of time at several locations in Washington where it was exposed to sunlight, fluctuating temperatures, smoke and humidity, all of which took their toll on the document. Finally, officials took note of these effects of aging and wrapped the Declaration and stored it flat at the State Department. We rejoined the Constitution until 1921 when President Harding signed an order transferring both of these documents to the Library of Congress. Just before Pearl Harbor and the U.S. entrance into World War II, the library sent the Declaration and the Constitution to Fort Knox for safekeeping where they remained until September 1944 when they were returned to the Library of Congress. Finally, these documents came to their rightful home here at the National Archives. The transfer occurred on December 13, 1952 with great pomp and circumstance and security as the newly encased Declaration of Independence was carried up these very steps with a military procession into the Rotunda. And the Declaration of Independence was safe until 2004 when the good treasure hunter Nicholas Cage cleverly stole it during a party in this building to protect it from the evil treasure hunter. And our national treasure was miraculously and circuitously restored to its rightful place and now poses the most often asked question in the Rotunda. Can we see the back of the map? Is there a map on the back? And I can tell you for certain that the only thing on the back of the Declaration of Independence are the words original Declaration of Independence stated for July 1776. That's it. After the ceremony I invite you to come inside our cool air conditioned building and see the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights. You can participate in family activities and check out our new exhibit Rightfully Hers which commemorates the centennial of the 19th Amendment and tells the story of women's struggles for voting rights as a critical step toward equal citizenship. The exhibit explores how American women across the spectrum of race, ethnicity, and class advance the cause of suffrage and follows the struggle for voting rights beyond 1920. Come inside and learn more. And a few reminders, you can share your pictures and stories from your Fourth of July experience at the National Archives, that U.S. National Archives on Twitter and Instagram use the hashtag archives July 4. You can also add your own John Hancock to the Declaration of Independence at our special signing booth inside the Boeing Learning Center here inside. And although we don't allow photography in the museum we've made a special exception for our selfie station where you can snap a selfie in front of a special backdrop featuring our founding documents. So thanks for coming out today. The National Archives is the home of the official Declaration of Independence. So really July 4 starts here. And now I'm honored to introduce our keynote speaker Koki Roberts. Koki is a political commentator for ABC News and NPR. And in her more than 40 years in broadcasting she has won countless awards including three Emmys. She's been inducted into the Broadcasting and Cable Hall of Fame and was cited by the American Women in Radio and Television as one of the 50 greatest women in the history of broadcasting. In addition to her reporting Roberts has written six New York Times best sellers most dealing with the roles of women in U.S. history. Koki holds more than 25 honorary degrees and serves on the boards of several non-profit institutions. In 2008 the Library of Congress named her a living legend one of the very few Americans to to have attained that honor. Koki is also vice president of the National Archives Foundation Board and we are pleased she could join us today for our 4th of July celebration. Please welcome Koki Roberts. Happy 4th everybody and it's wonderful to be here celebrating the 4th of July. Of course it was that glorious day in 1776 when the 13 colonies declared their independence. As grand as it was it came a little late for one patriot. They are unworthy to be our brethren and let us pray to the almighty that to blast their councils and to bring not to all their devices. That was December of 1775 when Abigail Adams was ready to smite the British and she wanted to do it for a good reason. The red coats were attacking her and her children while John was off debating and dining in Philadelphia and at one point he wrote to her and said if it gets really dangerous take our children and fly to the woods. Thank you John. By March of 1776 Abigail had totally run out of patience. I long to hear that you've declared an independency. And what would that independency look like she wondered. In the new code of laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make. I desire you would remember the ladies. Maybe the most famous words ever written by an American woman. What did she mean. She's not telling us today. Some historians thought she was kidding. I certainly don't. Abigail Adams knew she was being left out of much of the promise of the new nation. And she argued that her devotion to America despite her exclusion made her a better patriot than the men who stood to reap its benefits. Deprived of a voice in legislation obliged to submit to laws which are imposed upon us. Is this not sufficient to make us completely indifferent to the public welfare. Yet all history in every age there are instances of patriotic virtue in the female sex which considering our situation equals the most patriotic and heroic of yours indeed. So slowly the women of America took up the cause of having a voice in legislation through the vote. Two years after Abigail Adams died in 1818 Susan B Anthony was born in Adams Massachusetts. She went on to form her famous partnership with Elizabeth Cady Stanton who at Seneca Falls in 1848 wrote the Declaration of Sentiments. A declaration based entirely on the one you will hear shortly today but with some basic alterations and those alterations some of them will be read appropriately by the next generation my daughter Rebecca Roberts. We hold these truths to be self evident that all men and women are created equal. As the colonists charged the British with their litany of abuses so did the women charge the men. He has never permitted her to exercise her inalienable right to the elective franchise. He has compelled her to submit to laws in the formation of which she had no voice. He has withheld from her rights which are given to the most ignorant and degraded men both natives and foreigners. Having deprived her of this first right of a citizen the elective franchise thereby leaving her without representation in the halls of legislation he has oppressed her on all sides. He has made her as of the law civilly dead taken from her all right in property even to the wages she earns. And on finally concluding of this entire disenfranchisement of one half of the people of this country their social and religious degradation in view of the unjust laws above mentioned and because women do feel themselves aggrieved oppressed and fraudulently deprived of their most sacred rights we insist that they have immediate admission to all the rights and privileges which belong to them as citizens of the united states. 68 women and 32 men signed the document including of course Elizabeth Cady Stanton, LaCrestia Matt, Frederick Douglas, but it would be another 70 plus years before the elected representatives of the people afforded women what was rightfully ours as citizens the right to vote. The story of that decades decades long struggle of women marching bravely in their white purple and gold that story is ably and amusingly told inside these halls in the rightfully hers exhibition in the Lawrence O'Brien gallery. So please come in and see it as you enjoy this independence day in the knowledge that our union while still not perfect continues to strive toward that end and Abigail Adams. This is Robert. I am rightfully honored. Thank you very much. Thank you so much. May we hear it once again for Koki Roberts. I'm happy to introduce to you a very distinguished group of people who will read the Declaration of Independence. Our first three readers are General George Washington, Mr. John Hancock, and Mrs. Abigail Adams. Next to read the grievances against King George the third, we will have three of the leaders of the Second Continental Congress, Mr. Thomas Jefferson, Mr. John Adams, and Dr. Benjamin Franklin. These three gentlemen know the words of the Declaration better than anyone else. All three served on the committee to draft the Declaration, and Mr. Jefferson was the primary author. And to read the names of the 56 signers of the Declaration, we are proud to have Private Edward Ned Hector of the Third Pennsylvania Artillery Company, Free Black Colonial Soldier, Patriot, and Hero. And finally, we will have some audience participation just as our colonial forefathers would have done. And our special guests read the grievances as they do so against King George. Watch out for our town crier, assisted by our volunteers. They're holding the signs. You can get a preview right there. Holding the signs to tell us when we should express our displeasure with a hearty boo. Ladies and gentlemen, the Declaration of Independence. In Congress, July 4th, 1776, the unanimous declaration of the 13 United States of America. When in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them. A decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal. That they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, and that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, and that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness. Prudence indeed will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes, and accordingly all experience hath soon that mankind are more disposed to suffer. Well evils are sufferable than to write themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed, but when a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same object in visions that designed to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right it is their duty to throw off government and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colonies and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations all having indirect object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this let facts be submitted to a candid world. He has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. He has forbidden his governors to pass laws of immediate impressing importance unless suspended in their operations till his assent should be obtained and when so suspended he has utterly neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual uncomfortable and distant from the depository of their public records for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures. He has repeatedly dissolved representative houses for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused for a long time after such dissolutions to cause others to be elected whereby the legislative powers incapable of annihilation have returned to the people at large for their exercise the state remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without and confusions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these states for that purpose obstructing the laws for naturalization of foreigners refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their officers and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new officers and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people and eat out their substance. He has kept among us in times of peace standing armies without the consent of our legislatures as affected to Randa the military independent of and superior to the civil power out of my way. He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution and unacknowledged by our laws giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation for quartering large bodies of armed troops among us for protecting them by a mock trial from punishment for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these states for cutting off our trade with all parts of the world for imposing taxes on us without our consent for depriving us in many cases of the benefits of trial by jury for transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses for abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province establishing there in establishing there in an arbitrary government and enlarging its boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies for taking away our charters abolishing our most valuable laws and altering fundamentally the forms of our governments for suspending our legislatures and declaring themselves invested with the power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever he has abdicated government here by declaring us out of his protection and waging war against us he has plundered our seas ravaged our coasts burnt our towns and destroyed the lives of our people he is at this time transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death desolation and tyranny already begun with circumstances of cruelty and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation he has constrained our fellow citizens taken captive on the high seas to bear arms against their country to become the executioners of their friends and brethren or to fall themselves by their hands he has excited domestic insurrections amongst us and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers the merciless indian savages whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction of all ages sexes and conditions mr adams in every stage of these oppressions we have petitioned for redress in the most humble terms our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury a prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a tyrant is unfit to be the ruler of a free people nor have we been wanting in our attentions to our british brethren we have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us we have reminded them of their circumstances of emigration and settlement here we have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations well which would inevitably interrupt our connections and our correspondence they too have been deaf to the voice of justice and consanguinity we must therefore acquiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation and as we hold the rest of mankind enemies in war in peace friends we therefore the representatives of the united states of america in general congress assembled appealing to the supreme judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions do in the name and by the authority of the good people of these colonies solemnly publish and declare that these united colonies are and of right ought to be free and independent states that they are absolved from all allegiance to the british crown and that all political connection between them and the state of great britain is and ought to be totally dissolved and that as free and independent states they have full power to levy war conclude peace contract alliances establish commerce and to do all other acts and things which independent states may of right do and for the support of this declaration with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence we humbly pledge to each other our lives our abortions and our sacred arm honor i'll read the names of the colonies and the signers of the declaration like the colonists colonists rather we will show our approval by shouting hazard watch for the town crier to assisted by our volunteers holding the signs to show when you should shout so after private hector reads all the names from each state let's huzzah our approval but first let's practice with a hearty huzzah on the count of three one two three wait for private hector to read all of the names from each state and then we're going to shout our approval with a huzzah and now the names of the signers of the declaration of independence which one of you out here has courage which one of you would be willing to sign your own death warrants these people were willing to sign their own death warrant attend now as i read their names the honorable president of the continental congress john hancock jr and arthur middleton huzzah of carolton topkinson huntington extinct to this document is the secretary of the continental congress who willing to sign this document let us give them a huzz thank you now before we have the program finale i want to tell you about some of the activities that we have inside the national archives building

Guys, it looks like a Nintendo Direct might be sooner than you think. Then again, I don't know when you think it's gonna be, but we now have actual evidence that points to a Direct very, very soon. And this evidence comes from Nintendo themselves. What? That being said, I do want to remind you that, hey, you know what? Our channel and this video are sponsored by E-Win Racing. When it comes to buying a gaming office chair, don't just trust anyone. I've dealt with crappy chairs from Amazon, Walmart, even Office Depot. No, trust E-Win Racing, who has a chair just the right size for you. Trust me, one size doesn't fit all. Huh, can relate to this guy right there. That's why E-Win Racing offers five different size chairs so you can get the exact fit to your height and weight.

That way, you can get your much needed chair today. So what are you waiting for?  Just be sure to use code Nintendo Prime at checkout to get your 20% off. Link will be in the description or the additional text attached to this video. This just happened while I was live streaming and it's wild to me that we're even talking about this. It comes from dear friend of the channel HMK, one of the original six pack. Love him. He says, yo, the eShop is making moves that suggest a direct could be sooner than you think. There are updated references for both Tears of the Kingdom and Advance Wars, probably preparing to take pre-order soon. This literally is right off the eShop. You can see the name, Advance Wars, one of the two review cam, name, Legend of Zelda, Tears of the Kingdom, skew numbers, ID updates. All of this happens when they're about to take official digital pre-orders. Why would they be starting to take official digital pre-orders right now? Well, because they're about to make an announcement. They're about to show it and they always take the pre-orders after these sorts of announcements. In other words, there's a direct happening soon and we were able to track these two specific gains because we already knew they existed. Oh boy, oh boy, guys, can you feel it? A direct is happening soon. Now, when we say it's sooner than you think, I was thinking the 15th. So that's about two and a half weeks or now the 15th. Made a lot of sense to me, but maybe it's next week. There's been speculation for a while that because Nintendo's investor meetings on the 7th, they probably wouldn't do it the same day as the investor's meeting. They could do it the 8th or they could announce on the 8th or the 9th. So maybe next week, maybe it's next week. Because next week is where things get crazy because they have the 1st, the 2nd, the 3rd. Are they going to drop one literally on the 1st of February? Are they just not going to wait? We're going to get right in the February and boom direct. Nobody that I know expects a direct on the 1st of February or the 2nd for that matter. So it's happening, folks. For the 1st time, all the speculation, the leaks, the rumors, the conversations over the last month. This is straight from Nintendo. This isn't us going back and looking at, oh, their last directs are the last. Here's what we can say. These updates that happen to skews in the eShop always happen before they're about to drop pre-orders in an indirect. Guys, this is evidence. A direct is coming. It's happening. We now know it. I can say it with confidence. We are getting a Nintendo direct and it's happening very soon. Of course, Nintendo soon is sometimes three months, but I'm trying not to think that. I'm trying to think this soon means weeks. This soon means a week, two at the most. I think we're on to something. I think this is right. Are you guys ready? Are you guys hyped? I know I am. All right, everyone. Now it's time to talk about what can we expect in this direct. Clearly, tears of the kingdom. That's big. We know tears of the kingdom is coming. It's expected. They're going to announce pre-orders. Don't be surprised. They also announced a special edition switch to pre-order as well. All right, cool. Maybe special editions we need to pre-order as well. Different versions, a deluxe version, DSC version. I don't know. Advance Wars 1 plus 2 reboot camps. An interesting one. Sounds like we're going to get an actual release date for Advance Wars 1 plus 2 reboot camp. No more keeping that game in the pipe that was supposed to come out last April. Nintendo is going to give us a release date. Likely going to stick with it. That war is still going on. The reason they delayed it is still happening. And it appears Nintendo thinks we've navigated to a point that they feel confident. Okay, they're not going to get backlash for releasing it. So, Advance Wars 1 plus 2 reboot camp. Finally, we knew no one to expect it. I was really worried this would become a vaporware thing where they actually made it, but they never released it due to controversies. Nope, they're bringing it out. They're unloading the barrel. They're letting it go. What else is going to be in this direct? Well, that is the real mystery. Yeah, we'll probably see Kirby, right? Because Kirby comes out later in February. So, we'll see Kirby. We'll see probably more of Bayonetta. Well, he might see Hollow Knight. I don't want to get your hopes up for it, but we could see Hollow Knight's silk song. We could also see... How about first ever gameplay natively for Hogwarts Legacy and Gollum? A couple of big third-party games. Nintendo trying to remind the world, hey, while everyone is saying we don't get third-party games, here's a couple bangers. Would be quite interesting to see them maybe push those games heavily. I'm bringing something new from Square Enix. We'll probably see Optimize Traveler 2. In fact, if it's happening this early in February, we can not only see Optimize Traveler 2, but we could see Tales of Symphonia remastered again. Could we see a new Mario game announced for this holiday? Could we see that Metroid Prime remake? Remember all the stuff we talked about in that leaked video? Donkey Kong. Metroid Prime. What about The Wind Waker and Twilight Princess HG? I'm gonna say, there's a lot of possibilities. And what I want you guys to do right now is go down into the comments and give me the top 10 games you want to see in this upcoming Nintendo Direct. Right now. Tell me what they are. I seriously want to know. What's your top 10? For me, Tales of the Kingdom is number one by default. I want to see Tales of Symphonia. Optimize Traveler 2. I'm going in order, by the way. Mario. I'm gonna probably see more of it after E3, but Mario. Let's see that. I'll just see a Mario Kart. I know I'm dreaming big. Metroid Prime 4. Want to see that? I'm dreaming big. I'm dreaming big. I'm letting my high-levels go crazy for one day. I'm dreaming big. So let it be. Let it be. Let it be. Banjo Tui for the N64. I want to see it. I want to see it. We got Banjo Kazooie. I need Banjo Tui. Do it. What do we got? Three more to go. Three more to go. And number eight. Are you ready for this? Are you actually ready for this? A new 2D top-down Zelda game. Done. Number nine. Star Fox. New barrel roll. And a number 10. Come on. You know I gotta do it. You know I gotta do it, guys. I'm counting DLC for Tears of the Kingdom. It's a stone separate announcement. Sorry, I love Zelda that much. Three Zelda things in my top 10. You know it. I know it. We all love it. Thank you guys so much for tuning in. You guys are epic and amazing and awesome. Stay smiling and we'll catch you in the next video.


Now it may so happen that you are extracting data or retrieving data from multiple tables and you need to construct your result from multiple tables one after the other. MySQL provides a very powerful feature which is the union and you can use the union clause to achieve what I just mentioned. This module will briefly cover the union and as I have been mentioning with reference to the modules about code, you need to actually sit and type the code and run it. It's not complicated. It's very simple but it will give you a good understanding. Let's go ahead. So we'll talk about the simple union. Okay. Then the properties of union we'll be talking about with reference to the names and data types, duplicate elimination also because it ends sorting on union limit and nesting. There are certain properties of the union vis-a-vis which column was selected in the first table, which columns in the second table and so on. And this is going to become clear as we go and proceed with the examples. Let's move ahead. For the following examples, assume you have the three tables T1, T2 and T3. These are the tables we have T1, T2 and T3. Table T1 and T2 have integer and vector columns and T3 has date and integer columns. This is the date and this is the integer. To write a union statement that combines multiple retrievals, just write several select statements and put the keyword union between them. For example, to select the integer column from each table, we do this. We have this union over here and then union over here and this is the union from these tables and this is the answer. Okay. This is fairly simple. Let's look at more complicated with names and data type. Look at the properties. The names and data types for the columns of the union result come from the names and types of the columns in the first select. First select. The second and subsequent select statements in the union must select the same number of columns but they need not have the same names or types. Okay. You see over here we have integer and corrector and we have integer and date over here. We have corrector over here. Corrector. They are not same. Okay. Columns are matched by position, not by name, which is why these two queries return different results. Now I'll show you the queries also. In both cases, the column selected from T1, INC determine the types used in the union result. These columns have integer and string types. So the type conversion takes place when selecting values from T3. For the first query, this one over here. T is converted from date to string that happens to result in low loss of information. For the second query over here, T is converted from date to integer which does lose information. And I is converted from integer to string. All right. So you see we have what we have over here. Date versus integer and integer versus corrector over here. So these are the issues with the union you have to be careful about. Now duplicate elimination. So union has the following properties by default union eliminates duplicates rows from the result set. Okay. There are no duplicates. T1 and T2 both have a row containing values of one and red, but only one such row appears in the output. Also T3 has two rows containing the date 2004-01-01 and 201 of which has been eliminated. If you want to preserve duplicates, follow the first union keyword with all over here. So we have this, what we were trying to eliminate before over here, over here. These are the duplicates. Now how to perform sorting on the union? I'll show you. The sort a union result add an order by a clause after the last select. It applies to the query result as a whole. However, because a union uses column names from the first select the order by should refer to those names, not the column names from the last select. You can also specify an order clause for individual select statement within the union to do this. It includes the select including its order by within the parenthesis, which is shown over here. And limit can be used in a union in a manner similar to that for order by if added to the end of the statement, it applies to the union result as a whole, which is over here. If enclosed within parenthesis as part of an individual select statement, it applies only to that select. If you need not select from different tables, you can select different subsets of the same table using different conditions. This can be useful as an alternative to running several different select queries, because you get all the rows in a single result rather than as several result sets. So you see sorting on the union how it works. And it's a very powerful feature. That's all I have to discuss in this module. Thank you very much.


Women can now swim topless. Oh, yes. In Berlin's swimming pools. Congrats. The pastor bill said it was discriminatory that men could be topless and women could not. I mean, that makes a lot of sense. So. Vacationing there next? Yep. Okay. Juice!  I'm not German. Free the nipple. You can follow us on Instagram, Twitter, for more juicy content. Thanks so much for watching. If you'd like to like button. Yeah, that's always been a... We've gotten better, but boy are we prudish. Yeah. Comparatively. Yeah. Especially Germany. Germany has always been about stop sexualizing the human body all the time. Most European. That's why they call it topless. Yeah. Place at one and three. Have you ever been anywhere where that's a norm in their society and you see topless women? Because I've experienced it only once. I've experienced it multiple times. Oh, really? When I was a kid in Hawaii, there was actually, there's a few nude beaches. Yeah. I don't think my dad meant to, but all you were going surfing.  It's only once puberty hits that you start to notice those kinds of things. But I remember it was in Papua New Guinea. And obviously the Hula tribe, like most tribes in Papua New Guinea, they're two and a half, three hours removed from any city. And you know, it takes, you have to go off-roading to get to them. Completely normal. For the women to be without their tubs. I agree. Today we got a video. This is from the same people that did Prabhu's video. Oh, yeah. Oh, too. Yeah, and this is for KS. Great. KS Chitra. I'm glad we're doing another one. The legendary Nightingale of South India is... Did they give you a reach out thank you? They did. Yeah, me too. They were awesome. It's just so sweet. I'm so glad we're doing another interview. But this is obviously, she's the Nightingale of South India. We've heard, I feel like hundreds of her songs. One of the most listened to iconic voice of South India. And so this is one of the kind of similar things. Very cool. And apparently this is a whole series of a Raman music sheet. And so they create over A.Raman. I still would like to know how in the world they got, because Andrani had never, granted Andrani's not South Indian, but she too, it was like, how did I've never seen Prabhu in an interview? Yeah. I mean, I don't know how they did that. That was great. I wish she would do one with us. We'll reach out to them. Yeah. Hey, you have Prabhu's contacts. Exactly. Well, I can stay entertained. Tracking milestones of an incredible journey. Standing 30 years. These are non-bar. Raman music sheets. It's true. I sang in Hindi also in Hindi. Oh, the music for this film. Improvised so much in that song. And I was feeling I couldn't do anything, because I sang first. That was one of the biggest blessings I got in my life. That song. We've watched her live too. I remember seeing her in at least one live performance. Oh, I thought you meant like, no, no, no, no, no. A reaction. Yeah, yeah, we have. I don't want that. K.S. Chitra, one of the best playback singers in Indian cinema. Six national awards. Fiery awards. 36 state film awards. Padma Shree. Padma Bhushan. Singing in many Indian and foreign languages. K.S. Chitra has been on her songs. Million dollar arm. For 40 years. She is considered to have more than 25,000 songs to her credit. The amount of numbers that people in India have is just... The creative output is blind-boggling. 25,000 is, I think it's not the correct number. Much less than that. Should be 18,000. Well, that's all. That's it. You should do some more songs. So everyone should correct this number now. Ma'am, how challenging it is to sustain a career for 40 years? Actually, to be frank, I didn't take any holidays at all. All these years. I didn't go out anywhere for just for fun or for holidays. I was always concentrating in my music and my recordings and shows. So I didn't realize it was almost 40 years. When somebody came for an interview around 25 years, then only I realized, oh, 25 years passed, oh, so fast, I didn't know.  Time was flying. She obviously loves it. Whenever they call me, I have to be available. Maybe I'm workaholic. Seems like it. Yeah, it seems like it. I work. Whatever work comes to me. But she loves it. Dedicate 100% on that. Ma'am, before I get into your association with Mr. Rahman, I have to tell you something. I spoke with many of your colleagues, including Mr. Rahman, and everyone agreed on one point that you are always smiling. Yeah, I was going to say she's always smiling. I don't know. There is no secret in this because even from my childhood, I was like this. Somebody looks at my face. I start laughing. That is my nature. By birth, I'm like this.  Yes, yes. Why? I was very scared when girls always keep smiling. People might say that about me and she was very scared. That's unfortunate. Yeah. She always used to tell me you have to be serious. Don't laugh at strangers. Only if you know the person you smile at them, otherwise you should not keep laughing at everyone. Keep smiling at everyone. But I couldn't stop. I couldn't stop it. She seems so lovely. Ma'am, I asked Kavita Krishnamurthi and Sadhna Sargam about their favorite song. Let me show you their answers and then we'll talk further. You know, one song which I really like is of course Chitra Ji's Kehna Hi Kiya. I just love that song. I think she has sung it brilliantly. Kehna Hi Kiya is a song I really like a lot. Kehna Hi Kiya is a song I really like a lot. You are the one I really like. This song is sung by Chitra Ji. The way she sings in her voice, it's so beautiful to sing that song. You sang this song in Tamil, Hindi and Telugu. What are your memories? That was one of the biggest blessings I got in my life, that song. I have to thank Raman Ji for choosing me for that song. You know, for the recording, when I was singing, he said, Chitra Ji, more pleasant. When you sing, I am getting little pathos feeling. I don't want that. I want you to be more happy in your rendition. Then I tried my best and the chorus portion and everything was written on the day only. While recording only, they were doing the chorus portions also. Then I wrote in my book and then later he called me and asked me, Can you just dictate the lines? Because I want to make the chorus sing those lines. On the phone, I told him all the lines. The biggest blessing is Guardian has chosen as one of the thousand songs which you must listen to. That's score, man. That was the biggest blessing I got. That's an epic score. Epic film, Jim. Yeah. This song and wherever I go, people request me to sing this song. So, this has become a stamp for me. Just in a microphone at a podium. This song had a podium. So, how did you react to it? When I sang, I told you. I only get the rhythm and he used to play with me on the keyboards. He didn't make any track central that time. Only after taking my voice, he did all the orchestration. So, everything was new when I heard it. What was your reaction when you listened to the final track? I was really, what should I say? I was so happy and so excited. Ma'am, we two are very excited and greedy too. Can you sing few lines of this song for us as well? The fact that they just asked these legendary singers to do this. Hey, Celine Dion, can you just... That's why people got mad at us with Shreya. They didn't get mad with like, why did you ask her to sing? It's not normal here. Just sitting there unwarmed up. Can I sing it again? She wasn't perfect the first time. She knew it wasn't in the right key. She wanted to find the right key. My word. Indian singers are something else. It's not right. I'm not singing it properly. My voice is creating problems. Oh yeah, sure. I want to sing Kannada only. That is a much better song for me. Okay, we'll wait for a few seconds. What's she doing? It's the dynamics in a room that probably doesn't have great acoustics. That's what the greats do, man. What's so special about it? There is melody and there is that fast... What should I say? The rhythmic... I don't know how to express. That was a very beautiful song. Which one can get. That's what I should say. And I have to mention one more thing. I sang the Thuhire also in Hindi. Then Ramaji personally called me and said we may have to change one song because the audio... You can edit it if it is... Not at all. Okay. I'm just telling you what happened. He called me and said I will have to change Thuhire because the audio label... They were complaining that all South Indian singers have come. So we want somebody from the North also to be included in the soundtrack. So he asked my permission. That is something I really appreciate. Nobody else do that. But he called me personally and requested me that he's going to do this. So that is one of his qualities that's what I feel. Do you think qualities like these stand Mr Rahman apart? Otherwise in film industry such professional etiquettes are generally forgotten. But he is very particular about those. Yes. That is one of his best qualities. Recognizing the work of others. This song too has become a classic. What memories do you have of it singing with Hari Haraji? And you have performed this song with him on many occasions. When I sang Hari Ji, his voice was not there. Only I sang first. And then only I could hear Hari Ji has improvised so much in that song. And I was feeling I couldn't do anything because I sang first. So he has improvised a lot. Even while singing on stage also he improvised a lot. And sometimes I really get tensed. Whether I'll get the time to start my lines or the other. I'll leave it. So I always get tensed on the stage while singing that song with Hari Ji. So it was this beautiful song. And we have heard so many people singing that song in different styles. With the different sangatis and everything. That is one song which everybody tries to experiment. Or they try to explore. And ma'am, this is one song. No singing reality show is complete without it. As I told you earlier, it's a blessing. Some songs come as a blessing. Introduced Mr. Rahman to the world. As a musician, as a singer, what's your opinion of that track? Something goes inside. That music when Naveen Ji and everybody plays that team, use Bombay team. Something happens to our mind. I don't know how to express it. But it goes inside, straight inside. So that is it. That is the magic. Wow! That was another great interview. Another great interview. She seems like a lovely person.  I love it when greats see something perfectly. No flaws. And they're like, hold on, I need to do that again. That was not good. And they're like, I need to fix this. Because it's not up to par. Only they can notice it. It's absolutely insanity. I would never think to ask a musician. Especially her caliber, Shreya Ghoshul, Lata Ji, A.R. Rahman. Sing one of your famous songs for us real quick. It's like asking Jim Carrey, say alrighty then. It's not something you do here. It's just a cultural difference. That's why it didn't come to our mind when we were talking to the muscular dev. It doesn't occur to us. It's just on the spot. Because first of all, it's on the spot. The audio is probably not good. The audio is not good. The voice isn't warmed up. It's kind of a setup to make them look bad in the West. But I guess Indian singers, they've been trained for so long. They're that good. They don't need any time. Because I've trained my entire life. I am ready. What she's probably doing, and I'm sure there were other things in there I would have never been able to pick up. But for example, there's a point where, for example, a note may be written and meant to be performed where it's a high note and you know how they slide around and do things with a note. And they're supposed to land in what they call on top of the note. So when they sing it, they've landed on the note and then descend. She probably sang it and felt like she climbed to the note and then descended and that wasn't acceptable to her because she knows I need to drop down onto the note. Not climb up to the note. That level of perfectionism is why she's so great.  That was fantastic. They do great interviews here. Let us know other interviews of hers or this channel or other interviews we can react to down below.
