You must understand that to be in yoga is the destination. But somewhere along the way, the process itself got named as yoga. The process has many names, which has kind of sunk into the background. What is destination has become the name of the process today. So if you bend and twist your body, we would call those asanas, but today that is yoga. Like this, various processes, in fact, well, 112 basic ways, but millions of tools which have evolved out of these fundamentals, every one of them today is known as yoga. It's like if you go to the private bus station in Coimbatore, you'll see somebody will be saying, Bangalore, Bangalore, Bangalore, you say, where? He'll show you the bus. He means this bus goes to Bangalore. But when he says, he says, Bangalore, Bangalore, Bangalore, if you say, Bangalore, where, where Bangalore? It's Bangalore, the bus. So the vehicle has become Bangalore. Just like that, the vehicle or the tools have become yoga.


Welcome to the latest news round-up from Understanding Animal Research where we will be running through some of the recently published scientific studies and news articles that involve animal research. As usual, you can find more detail on each of these stories on our website and links are provided in the caption below. Our first story comes from the National Centre for the Three Rs who have awarded this year's Three Rs Prize to Dr Lisa Wagar who has created an entirely animal-free tonsil organoid that models respiratory infection and immunity. Using cells from human tissue samples, Dr Wagar developed miniature tonsils known as organoids. Organoids are an exciting field of research that are already helping to reduce the number of animals used in scientific research. Professor Kevin Shackcheff, chair of the NC Three Rs Board and the Three Rs Prize panel said, The winning paper presents an elegant Three Rs solution to meet a significant and pressing need and I look forward to seeing the continued adoption of this replacement method in labs around the world. For the first time, researchers have imaged the adaptive immune system of zebrafish. The study tracked the movement of immune cells throughout the zebrafish in exceptional detail. These stunning images produced show in detail the cell's systematic circulation around the body. Interestingly, the researchers did not initially set out to map the fish's immune system. Unlike mammals, zebrafish and many other animals do not have a network of lymph nodes which are the bean-shaped organs that play a key role in the mammalian adaptive immune system. The researchers carrying out this study initially set out to understand how an adaptive immune system could work in the absence of these apparently essential nodes which is what has led to these rather stunning images. The first two people to receive an experimental stem cell treatment for epilepsy have experienced a reduction in seizures of more than 90% after one year of treatment. One patient in the study experienced more than a 95% reduction in monthly seizures and seven months after treatment, the same patient stopped having seizures entirely and also saw improvement in memory scores on cognitive tests. The stem cell therapy involved injecting a high concentration dose of inhibitory neurons into the brain. The neurons are grown in the laboratory using human embryonic stem cells. Previous research in animals found that injected neurons were able to integrate with existing brain circuits and suppress seizures long-term. This research is now showing great promise in human clinical trials offering hope that many sufferers from epilepsy will see their symptoms better controlled or even eliminated. Researchers from the University of Manchester and funded by the British Heart Foundation have discovered a new structure inside the hearts of goats. The structure produces the electrical signals necessary to make the heart beat when the main electricity-producing cells called the SA node fail. This natural pacemaker was identified in a study involving 15 goats. Goats were chosen because they have a similar anatomy and physiology to humans and also produce a similar heartbeat to us which gives researchers confidence that these results will be highly relevant to humans. A recent study at Harvard Medical School found that mice kept in a low oxygen environment lived for 50% longer than expected. The study in question used mice that age abnormally fast usually reaching three to four months in age before succumbing to age-related disease. In the wild mice naturally live for around two years. The mice kept in a low oxygen environment lived for a surprising 24 weeks on average 50% longer than expected. In addition to increased lifespan the neurological function and cognition of mice kept in a low oxygen environment was preserved for longer and they performed better in standard tests of coordination and strength. And lastly, this month research was published that showed that taurine may extend the lifespan of various animal species. Taurine is a nutrient found in most animal products and also added as a supplement to items such as energy drinks. Taurine production does tend to decline with age in most species including humans and this new research indicates that reduced taurine may affect lifespan. Both sexes showed improved physical health compared to mice that were not given taurine supplements. In addition, 15 year old Reese's macaque monkeys were also given a six month course of taurine to see if the supplement had the same effect in primates. Whilst the study did not go on long enough to assess whether taurine prolonged lifespan scientists saw improvements in the animal's body weight, bone density, blood sugar levels and their immune systems. Although not yet tested directly in humans researchers have carried out an analysis of 12,000 people and found that those with higher levels of taurine in their blood were generally healthier than people with low taurine. If the data from mice applied to people it would be the equivalent of an extra seven to eight years of life said Professor Henning Vakahaga who was involved in the research at the Technical University of Munich. He goes on to say but it will take proper clinical trials where some people are given the nutrient and others a placebo pill to see if any benefit can be detected.


Hi guys this is Jason Zach from Nathaniel School of Music. In this lesson we are going to explore the topic of beat division and also practice our very very important note values in the field of music theory. Now note values give us the duration of the note and with this exercise we are going to adjust the duration of the notes and while doing so understand the percentage of the beat associated with these note durations. Normally whenever note durations are taught it's sort of like that usual chart right you have whole notes half notes a quarter notes and whatnot but it may not be a very practical way to understand this subject. So in this lecture I'm going to give you a piano exercise to practice counting this however you could do this on any instrument you could even sing it if you're away from your piano you could play it on a guitar a saxophone or whatever be the case and this lesson is supplemented like all of our other lessons with Patreon notes so if you'd like to get yourself a copy to visualize the notation better you'll have my handwritten notes as well as official staff notation for the entire exercise which you'll see throughout the video as we go through but as a resource it's available on Patreon for a downloadable copy and along with that for that subscription of five dollars a month you'll also get a bunch of other things where we prepare tracks to help you improve your ear training your notation learning popular songs and pretty much any supplementary content or material for our YouTube channel which we've been doing over the past few years. So let's get cracking with the lesson now in the right hand we are going to learn or just basically get your keyboards out it'll be nice if you play along with me. So in the right hand we are just going to deal with these four notes C D E G okay so in the key of C major you could argue this would be the 1 2 3 5 root second major second major third and the perfect fifth degrees from the C scale okay you could avoid your ring finger for this lesson if you don't want to just use the pinky for the G and you're good to go. So how we are going to practice beat division will be using the idea of fractions right now a normal quarter note which we learn in a four by four time signature or even a three by four time signature essentially is the value of a beat or a value of one beat and if you look at it in terms of fractions there is no fraction it's just one by one which is one but in terms of percentages you could also argue that a quarter note occupies 100% of the beat right now it seems very obvious but then you'll if you stick with me till the other parts of the lesson you'll realize how important the percentage are percentages or the fractions are going to be because I am going to cover every single percentage of the beat and or fractions of the beat which you will ever have in music or at least the commonly used ones we are not going to get into things like quintuplets or septuplets which divide the beat into all sorts of other percentages we are going to do all the usual suspects in this lecture okay so the quarter note is something you would need to practice first so you could generally use a metronome while you play or you could even move your head along to the music so right now one two three four and if I consider this as a four by four I would be playing quarter notes also known as crotchets one two three four four and in the left hand you could just play a single C to support this melody in the right hand one two three four one two if you get bored with that C you can do quarter notes by going maybe C A F G so two three four A two three four F four G and so on if you're having an issue changing the notes it's okay you could just stick to a single C you could also kind of alternate your octaves by going maybe C like this C C lower C higher C could also work so the right hand is what we are going to change in this exercise left hand let's keep as it is you can even play chords in the left hand C major A minor but once you come into something in the left hand just stick with that okay so now the right hand is going to be adjusted in such a way that we go through different stages of the beat so hundred percent is a crotchet or a quarter note now you may argue what is after hundred percent well in truth it's like 99.99% but to execute that as a musician we don't have the resources because and it won't even sound great so we just have standard percentages which we can divide the beat by or have our note values for so the next percentage which is closest to 200 which I think is reasonable to practice or important to practice would be the 75% mark of the beat now a 75% mark of the beat if you have a note which exists for 75% of the beat or three fourths of a beat that would be a dotted quaver a dotted quaver lasts for 0.75 of a beat so a dotted quaver if you think about it a quaver is half of a beat right a dot adds half of that half so what is half plus 0.25 0.75 or three fourths so a dotted quaver will be utilized for this purpose so how do we count a dotted quaver becomes an important question you are in the world of 16th notes so you need to count in a way which suits your brain best so what we could do is you could say one e and a two e and a three and a four e and and every third beat you would be targeting a note so one e and a two e and a three e and a four e and a one e and a two e and a three e so one e and a three and a four e and a doomed so beyond the point you don't have to even say the numbers but just remember in your mind you're dividing by four so even though the note value is not playing divided by four the note value is three fourths of a beat in your mind you need to divide the beat by four in order to get to the 75 percent mark right so to get to that 75 we'll have 25 percent 50 percent and 75 percent which is one e and a so if i were to play that just with a c one e and a two e and a three e and a and a two e and a three it also forms like an interesting polyrhythm if you think about it the right hand's doing three one or the right hand in this case is doing four beats while the left hand finishes three hits one e and a two e and a three e and a one e and a two e and a three so the right hand's going like three four one two three by the left's going one two three one two three one two three right the right hand's going one two three four one so that's a dotted quaver so quaver with a dot so how do we count it again one e and a two e and a three e and a four e and a four and six so every three beats it'll recycle itself so one e and a two e and a three e and a four so at four it's going to recycle which is why this works well over a three by four signature so let's bring our note combo the note combo is not going to change it's going to be c d e g and we are not going to go in any other order than that it's going to be c d e g so earlier we did two three four one two now to get the three fourths or a dotted quaver we have to divide the beat by three fourths one e and a two e and a three e and a four e and a two e and a three e and a two e and a three in your mind you could say one e and a two e and a three e and a you can choose some other notes as well if you like so the world of the dotted quaver is beautiful you can get immersed in it and improvise and create your own melodies and phrases and riffs and what not. So try and put it together with the old version 2e and 3e and 4e and this is normal crotchets 1e and 2e and now to do the dotted quaver we go 1e and 2e and 3e so that's the next stage of beat division or commonly known note value. So we've covered 100% of the beat which is a crotchet, 75% of the beat which is a dotted quaver and what's next? You may argue okay after 75% comes 50% that's usually what we do but we also have the world of triplets where the triplet will go 1 3rds, 2 2 3rds and 3 3rds. So 1 3rd will be the quicker triplet, 2 3rds of a beat would be the slower triplet or what we call in music as a quarter note triplet. So a quarter note triplet is such that 3 of them make up a minimum okay or 3 of them make up 2 crotchets or 2 quarter notes so when we call something a quarter note triplet it is a tuplet symbol where we write 3 or we could have written 5 which is a quintuplet or any other division but if we write 3 it's a triplet so what that means is a quarter note, a gang of 3 will always equal to 2 quarter notes in that time or it will equal to 1 minimum. So a quarter note triplet equals to 2 quarter notes the value of 2 quarter notes or it's equal to 2 beats so how do we count a triplet? Instead of saying 1e and 2e and 3e and which is dividing by 4 we don't need that we need a triplet to divide by 3. So it will go 1e and 2e and 3e and 1e and 2e and 3e and 1e triplet, 2 triplet, 3 triplet, 1e and 2e and triplet, triplet, triplet. So where is this note going to latch on to? It's going to latch on to the 2 3rds point of the beat or what I would like to say in terms of percentages 66.66 or 66.67 or something right? So you go 1e and 2e and 3e and so you could start with crotchets, 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e and play quarter notes but keep the triplet vibe in mind now, 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e and 1e and 2e and 3e it will take it's time to resolve because you're still in this lecture I'm trying to say play the same Sarega Pa always, you're doing that as a cycle right? So 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e and 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e and 1e and 2e and so 4 of those note combos will resolve this triplet phrase. Let me show you again. Over, new cycle, change, try to internalize this like it's its own melody, in your mind you're going 1e and 2e and 3e and 4 note groupings but you're dividing the beat by 3. But not the taqita taqita you're not playing at every division, you're playing at every alternate division so taqita taqita taqita. So how does this compare again with crotchets? 100% of the beat is this. Then we have 75% which we learnt earlier 1e and 2e very busy, 16 notes, trippy taqita taqita the very eastern sound. So unlike a lot of my other youtube videos where I go more complex at the end what you guys need to realize is we finished all the hard stuff, now the easy stuff is following us now. So we've done 100%, we've done 75% which is dotted quavers, we've done 66.67% which is a quarter note triplet combos, what's after 66.67 conventionally speaking 50% which is quavers which divides by 2 and I think that'll be super easy. All you have to do is say 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e and 1e and 2e and now play your notes 1e and 2e and 3e and you could also see the notation, there's a notation laid out for you on our, it's also there for download on Patreon so do consider a copy there 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e and so how does this compare with crotchets? Our quarters, quarters was taqita taqita taqita then we had 75, 1e and 2e and the triplets 50%, very straight forward if you ask me, now moving forward to the next division so we've covered 100%, 75%, 66.67% we are getting closer and closer to like lesser percentages, we've done 50%, what's after 50, conventionally speaking one third or 33% of the beat 33% of the beat we already learnt when we learnt two thirds which is 1e and 2e and 3e and 4e but with everything so that actually may be very easy on the mind so that'll be called as eighth note triplets and eighth note triplet is such that three of them equals to one quarter note or one crotchet okay so or one beat so eighth note triplets just to set it up for us 1e and 2e and a 3e and a 4e and so with my voice each note will go with it so 1e 1e and a 2e and a 3e and a 4e and so it'll recycle after four beats but you're playing four note combos 1e and a 2e and a 3e and a 4e and a 4e and a 4e and a 3e and a 4e and a 4e and a 4e very different than the 66% mark which is but very similar as well why it's the same triplet grid then that was your world of triplets so we have the slow one quarter note triplet the fast one eighth note triplet so last but not least we have the semi quavers semi quavers will essentially divide the beat by four so you're looking at 25% of the beat which is 1e and a 2e and a 3e and a 4e and a 1e and a 2e and a 3e and a 4e and so pretty much what we did for 75% 1e and a 3e and boom 50% was 1 and 2 and 3 so this is like the fastest version where you're playing all the notes in that time grid 1e and a 2e and a 3 so everything would involve so if you compare your right hand with your left hand there are four notes in the right hand with one note in the left hand because the left hand continues to hold its ground by playing crotchets or quarter notes so just to compare 100% 50% 25% so you can equate all the three speeds and if you're a beginner you could actually just stick with that you know you could do 100% you could do 50% 25% which are all the usual suspects come to think of it and then you have the triplet world where we go fast triplets or eighth note triplets then you can go to crotchet or slow triplets and of course the 75% one which was a bit weird the most groovy if you ask me I didn't want to miss that out because I love rhythm so so these are about all the note values guys I'm sure you'll agree that using this concept you have different percentages of the beat what if you like go beyond 100% you could have like 150% of the beat which is what now 150% will be a dotted crotchet so that'll be one and two and three and four and one and two and three and four and one and two and three so that's 150% you may argue why can't I divide the beat into eight units well you can it's just semi quavers with faster what is that it's a 32nd note which divides the beat into eight right so then you could go so that you could argue is 12.5% of the beat right 25% divided by two I hope I've got my maths right but I'm sure you'll be better than me at this field especially if you're a genius at fractions and percentages which is all that this lesson pretty much needs so a good way to so let's conclude the lesson with a few tips and a few pointers a good way to practice this lesson first of all is to start with what I told you cdeg with a singular bass that's just a c in the left hand and what you could do moving forward is you can then use it with a metronome or try and play it along with a drum beat but don't give yourself anything more than a crotchet or a quarter note and this exercise will really get you to understand what those note values mean the note values we see every day in our sheet music ultimately this is all they mean they are just fractions they are just fractions of a beat or percentages of a beat you know all the way up to 100% or more than 100% if you do a dotted crotchet it's 150 you do a minimum it's 200% you do a dotted minimum it's 300% you do a whole note or a semi-brief it's 400% so ultimately you should look at this as a x-axis time grid and say I have this symbol what does it mean how long is it that's exactly what music notation is all about it's about there is a note which you stare at it lasts for how long or there could be a rest which also lasts for that long and then you ask yourself after that what what is the note first of all how long is the note and then what is the note and that covers your x and y axis of music if you think about it and the z-axis will be pretty much the volume how loud should I play the note so if you ask yourself this question how long should I play a note then what is the note or in whichever order and then how loud should I play the note that's how the field of music or I would say the field of sound exists in physics at the bare minimum these are the three properties of sound if you think about it pitch volume and duration or time length and so on right

In today's video I want to switch things up and talk about something different. When I go to any amusement park my main focus is the roller coasters. I will occasionally stray from the coasters however to check out other things that pique my interest, and I want to discuss a few flat rides that I've been on that I personally enjoy. I am certainly no expert on flat rides, but there are definitely a few that have really impressed me that I would consider to be some of the best rides in their respective park, so I am just going to highlight some of those. I have not been to a ton of parks, and I haven't even been on nearly all flat rides at said parks, so my experience with flat rides is really limited, only having been on a handful that have really impressed me in one way or another. If your favorites aren't on this list, then I most likely just haven't ridden it. These also are not listed in any particular order. Enjoy. To start off, we have The Crypt at Kings Dominion. This was a classic hus ride, which seems to be becoming more rare in the US nowadays, and unfortunately this one was removed from Kings Dominion during this off season and early 2020. This version of the topspin has two rows which both face outside in a back-to-back theater style seating arrangement. This particular model is the suspended topspin model, which holds 38 people per cycle. I rode The Crypt once in 2019, and I'm truly glad that I got to experience it, because it is one of the most chaotic experiences I've ever had on a ride. You would just get whipped so violently forwards and backwards uncontrollably, and you'd have no idea which way you were facing until the ride was done. Very intense and wippy all around. Of course, The Crypt had some really nice theming and presentation to compliment the ride experience, as you were suspended over the water, and you had these awesome shooting water jets, as well as some flame effects occasionally, if they were working. Very nice touch to a thrilling ride that will be missed at this park, along with many other rides. Arrow 360 at Kennywood is a Zamperla Hawk. Now, this is a ride in which you rotate upside down in a circular 360 degree motion forwards and backwards in suspended seats with over-the-shoulder restraints. This also has a seating arrangement where riders face each other if you are on an inside row. The arms are powered by a motor, and it gets pretty fast at points, but also has some really wicked hangtime during parts of the ride, as you just slowly plummet back towards the ground and back up the other way to be flipped all over again. This is a pretty intense ride, but isn't too crazy. Very thrilling and unique rides. I don't think these are all too common either. Electro Spin at Carowinds is a Mondial Ventura. This ride is kind of weird to explain, but basically it has a main mast head with a movable mast head mounted 45 degrees onto the main mast head. The movable mast head has six gondola arms, which go around in a circle, left and right. The gondola arms have six suspended seats, so your legs dangle freely, like on an inverted coaster, and even has over-the-shoulder restraints that remind me a lot of the classic B&M over-the-shoulder restraints. The gondolas rotate freely, flipping you upside down very sporadically with really intense whip. The ride has a pretty long cycle as well. Electro Spin offers a unique and out-of-control type of ride that is very disorienting. X Scream at Waldemir is one of those Larsen drop towers, which means once you get up to the top there is no time for you to take everything in and contemplate about why you got on this thing. You reach the top and immediately fall all the way back down. This really sudden and unexpected fall really just takes the experience up a notch, and this is the most intense drop tower I've been on. Now, this is a weird one for me, because I'm not always a fan of drop towers. I actually only rode this once quite a few years ago, and haven't gotten on it since, because it is so intimidating for me. So, do I like it? Yeah, I guess I do like it, because it is such a good drop tower. X Scream is 140 feet tall, dropping you from 120 feet, and is definitely a very thrilling ride in Waldemir's lineup. If you are a fan of intense drop towers, definitely don't skip this if at the park. I will make it a point to get on this again whenever I go back to Waldemir. The whip is one of the many extremely rare rides, which you can find at Kennywood. This whip is the second one at the park, actually, and opened in 1926. It was manufactured by WF Mangles. This ride features a large oblong turntable in the middle, with arms attached to these cars which round a very tight 180 degree turn on each end, and you get whipped abruptly around these corners. It's a very unique ride, and isn't very intense, but offers a nice thrill that is different from anything else that I've been on. To end the list, I have Chaos at Waldemir, which opened in 2019. This ride is a Zamperla MIDI Discovery, and this is a smaller scale pendulum style ride. I've been on larger models of pendulum rides at Cedar Point and King's Dominion, which are pretty fun rides, but they don't really impress me too much to be honest. But I was taken aback just by how crazy and fun Chaos was. This model does flip you upside down, and it does so with insane amounts of hang time. There are times when you are hanging upside down and just very slowly tipping into the other direction for at least a good 5 seconds. You reach a height of 60 feet on this as you swing upside down. You also get some great airtime on this, and Chaos is the only ride I've been on where I just laughed uncontrollably the whole time. I just couldn't help it. This ride is so fun and really packs a punch. I believe these are great for small parks because of their super thrilling hang time and negative g-filled rides, as well as having decent capacity with 16 riders per cycle. This is actually my very favorite flat ride that I've been on no doubt. I just couldn't get enough of Chaos. It definitely really left a good impression on me. I know for sure that most of you won't have any of these flat rides as your personal favorites, so be sure to let me know what your favorite flat rides are that you've been on.

Free market. Free market is crazy. This is a role-playing game that comes in a box like the old D&D games It looks like a board game. The deal with it is that it plays one kind of game very specifically. Notice the trend here They all play one kind of game for each decision. Which is why you have to learn a lot of different games So you can play a lot of different things. This is set in a space station in a post-scarcity world Imagine a world where energy we have infinite energy.  It's tight now the whole premise of the game is predicated on one question So with this world and with all this these resources at your disposal. What did you do today? That is the promise and let me tell you watching people play this game. It goes into a dark place Sometimes you play and people tend to start off wacky. I've played games about cannibalism.  You just print it out And it's like are you really good at printing or you're really good at making stuff There's all kinds of things so this is a game that actually makes you really think about the sort of ramifications of a post-scarcity society and it does it exceedingly well and weird sci-fi comes out of this game The other thing about the game is you play it with these multiple decks of cards every player has a deck of cards And it says right on the box how many of each card are in the deck and you flip them over one at a time to Resolve the conflicts, right?  Oh, I drew a genetics card Good, right? I needed that because I'm using my genetic thing on this test this conflict, right?  I know there's no more greens in the deck the next thing I do It's probably gonna fail miserably right so but I need to finish the deck so I can shuffle it again So I can win at something so I can choose like oh, I know I'm gonna fail here Right or maybe I'll get people to help in on the next thing I do so I know I don't fail at it So success and failure are end-in-flow currencies just like in a lot of good stories The characters are failing and failing and failing and failing and then suddenly they succeed at the end and bill vote for who gets the ring And god doesn't eat him or if they're failing they're succeeding and succeeding and succeeding and then the critical plot twist happens because they ran out of success It makes that end-in-flow happen every time you play the game I'm gonna tell the story of my character here I'm not gonna talk about my strength stat. That's not interesting and it turns out that that's the only part of my character That is character that is story who he knows what he's done Where he's going why he fights for what he fights for that's it in that whole character sheet That's it So try to tell me this is a role playing game But what percentage of it has anything to do with role playing that percent and most of that is a picture


We are facing a global fight to address one of the biggest challenges of our time. Five years after committing to eradicate hunger, we are not on track to reach our goals by 2030. Chronic hunger is up by 10 million people in one year and up by nearly 60 million in five years. Almost 690 million people went hungry in 2019 with numbers highest in Asia and rising fastest in Africa. If these trends continue, more than 840 million people will be hungry by 2030, with Africa overtaking Asia as the region affected most. The COVID-19 pandemic could add over 100 million people to this distressing toll. Overcoming hunger is just one part of the problem. Two billion people do not have regular access to safe, nutritious and sufficient food. In 2019, 144 million children under the age of five were stunted. While 47 million were affected by wasting, we are not on track to meet our 2030 targets for child stunting, low birth weight and exclusive breastfeeding. Countries are also facing the growing burden of obesity linked to poor quality diets, with 676 million of adults obese. Around the world, many people are suffering from hunger, food insecurity and malnutrition because they cannot afford healthy diets. Even the cheapest healthy diets are out of reach for more than three billion people in the world. In Sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia, around 57% of the population cannot afford nutritious food. Our current dietary patterns are also taking a heavy toll in terms of health costs and the environment. By 2030, diet-related health costs linked to mortality and non-communicable diseases could be more than $1.3 trillion a year, while diet-related costs of greenhouse gas emissions could be more than $1.7 trillion a year. As the world fights COVID-19, we cannot allow the pandemic to stop the global fight on hunger and malnutrition. To achieve a world free from hunger and malnutrition by 2030, countries must transform food systems and increase the affordability of healthy diets. Shifting to healthy diets could reduce direct and indirect health costs by up to 97%, while reducing the social costs of greenhouse gas emissions by up to 74%. We must ensure the cost of nutritious foods comes down. If the whole world shifts towards a healthy diet, we have a real chance of ending hunger and malnutrition, once and for all. We must act now to build back better and make a difference in lives and communities everywhere.


Thank you very much first. Let me thank Church P for his extraordinary leadership over a 30-year career in the US Air Force and now at the Art of Domain Awareness Center of Excellence at the University of Alaska. Church has been a constant voice of reason in that in constant time and we're grateful for his continued service to our country. I want to thank my old heart for advancing the ideas of democracy here at St. Mary's College of Maryland. I want to thank Bonnie Green and Jennifer Brown at the Patuxent Partnership for co-leading this important event. Thanks to all of you for being here and taking the time out of your busy schedules. It's a great privilege to serve as your speaker this afternoon and as the last person standing before you in DC traffic, I assure you the comments will be brief. Here on these grounds of St. Mary's College of Maryland, 1630, brave men established the first colony of the New World where people of all faiths could live in freedom, tolerance, and safety. For 177 years, this institution has excelled in studying and forwarding these ideas in the idea that a rising tide lifts all boats. Today we must summon those same qualities of strength, courage, and determination as we set sail for America's new frontier, the Arctic. Today the American people are faced in their executive branch and in their congress with the very hazard of which Franklin Roosevelt warned. A government frozen in the ice of its own indifference. That's why I've chosen this time and this place to discuss a topic that too often falls to the winds of ignorance yet is the most important topic in our falling, multi-polar world. American leadership. What kind of American leadership do I mean? What kind of leadership do we mean? It's not leadership that believes democracy is dead or that reaches for the gun before the purse. It's not leadership that places optics before ethics or confuses activity with progress. I'm talking about genuine leadership. The kind that believes America stands as a moral beacon for humanity. The kind that wants all people in nations to compete and succeed in our multi-polar, falling world. Not just leadership that asks the challenges of our time, but leadership of all time. I speak of American leadership because of the new face of the Arctic. The new face of our fallen world. The world where the United States is no longer the world's sole superpower. Today the threat of indigenous powers, world regimes, and terrorist organizations requires us to re-examine American grand strategy from previous decades. To pragmatically assess the change of competition and interaction of Europe, Asia, North America, and the center where they all meet, the Arctic Ocean region. The tier along the maritime borders of Russia and the United States where we find a rapidly melting polar ice cap, the shortest trade route linking Asia, Europe, and North America. Nearly one-third of the world's untapped hydrocarbons and increased abundance and distribution of fish and minerals. The historically intense relationship between Russia and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and the subtle inevitable rise to China's third ocean strategy. Now some suggest that it's pointless to talk about American leadership in a falling world until our leaders adopt a more enlightened attitude. With our help, I believe they can. But I also believe we must examine our own attitudes toward climate change, toward the Arctic region, and toward Russia. As individuals, as communities, and as one Arctic nation. First, let us examine our attitude toward climate change. Too many of us question the science or believe it's a hoax. Too many of us think it's some far-off problem or that it's too late to do anything. But that is a dangerous, selfish, and naive belief. It leads to the conclusion that our actions today have no effect on tomorrow. That mankind is doomed. We cannot accept that view. Think any leader who does or treats up our joke isn't prepared to leave. The trends are disturbing and they're real. Like in my hometown of Miami, Florida where the seas are swallowing the streets and eating away our beaches. No nation is safe and no nation can rise and adapt on their own. But the United States cannot test every assumption, rebuild every sinking city, patrol every receiving coastline, or accept every migrant by itself. What should we? This is not just about our security. It's about the security of our global commons. So let us focus on a more practical, more achievable role by breaking climate change into smaller parts within and across disciplines, sectors, geography, making it easier to define our goals more clearly and move toward them. Let us recognize our role in creating this problem and embrace our responsibility in solving it. Second, we must examine our attitude toward the Arctic region. It's remarkable to think how much the Arctic has changed. And for that matter, how much America has changed since we became an Arctic nation 150 years ago. We may not know what the next 150 years will look like, but we can all agree that it won't look like the last 150. In this age of climate change, well, as Americans, we must first ask ourselves, what kind of Arctic nation do we want to be? In this age of climate change, let us start by exploring and strengthening our Arctic identity by drawing attention to the countless and often overlooked historical, economic, security, cultural, scientific, environmental, and other ties that exist between the United States and the world's most northern region. Such education has never been more important to our long-term national security. It's clear that this new frontier of our globalized world is changing and changing fast. In the last decade alone, we have seen our temperatures warm twice the rate as anywhere else in the world. The sea ice extent has reached historical lows. New national policies and strategies have been found. New species are emerging while others are disappearing. We've seen a discovery in production, new oil fields and renewables, new investment in development and infrastructure, greater commercial, military and adventure activity. We've witnessed communities rise and villages fall because of rising seas. America's past investment in the Arctic has yielded mixed return on our economy, our security and our national identity. And it makes sense. Our Arctic policy was formed nearly a decade ago at a time of reduced temperatures and tensions. And our strategy for the most part has focused on environmental conservation and monitoring. The latest national intelligence estimate and the remarks of past presidents, secretaries and others have said too little in my opinion. And what has been left unsaid is the heart of the problem that should concern every citizen. And that is we are in the early stages of a long struggle for supremacy in the Arctic. And America is years behind. Most troubling is that most of our leaders and most of our citizens don't even realize it. As Americans, we must never forget that we're an Arctic nation. And we have an important and unique role to play as a provider of peace, as an architect of new security arrangements, as an aggressive proponent of economic growth, as an advocate for indigenous peoples, and as a builder and leader of coalitions to deal with the problems of a rapidly thawing world. Now is the time to usher in a new era of U.S. leadership in the Arctic. If history teaches us anything, it's that the best national defense is a good offense. We must not repeat the mistakes of the past by trying to match our competitors, ship for ship, airplane for airplane, or missile for missile. Rather, we must strengthen and align all instruments of national power to offset their strengths in a way that gives us an advantage. Ultimately, that advantage is measured in sustainable revenue, jobs, and unfettered access in a peaceful environment. If we expect to be the leader of other nations, then we can expect to compete aggressively in the international Arctic economic order. Today, we can bring immediate relief to Alaska Indians by lifting self-imposed restrictions of oil and gas development in the U.S. Arctic. We can reach a deal with Canada on our disputed maritime boundary agreement in the resource-rich Newford Sea, and ratify the Law of the Sea Convention to safeguard our resources. But as a great power, we must look toward the Blue Arctic. Whereas John F. Kennedy reminded us, those who only look to the past and the present are certain to miss the future. By the end of the next decade, this nation should commit itself to achieving the goal of building a new maritime trade group. This bold course of action demands a national pledge to build a new web of deep-water ports, airports, roads, fiber-optic networks, high-speed rails, and oil and gas pipelines, the infrastructure that makes permanent security and economic growth possible. It will stimulate some $1 trillion in investment and draw in countries that account for 80% of the world's energy consumption, all while redefining global trade patterns. Such a course requires an unconventional blend of public missions, commercial solutions, and the ability to understand new trans-border markets and products. Public-private partnerships and international arrangements are valuable and should be created and nurtured whenever possible, especially to expand exports and investment in local capital and infrastructure development. From diplomacy to economic assistance to programs run by the National Academy of Sciences, this audacious task will certainly require a whole-of-government effort. Indigenous Peoples and Congress for both Houses and both parties are critical partners in our progress. Progress that must be met with two key safeguards. First, the need to craft effective strategies for addressing global environmental problems. And second, rigid oversight of finance and investment. But our efforts are not economic alone. We must strengthen our intelligence. This is more than just an organizational chart. We need leadership that empowers our agencies to think creatively and to clearly define and prioritize our threats and ensure that our leaders and our citizens understand them. We have to build the capacity to better collect, analyze, and share intelligence without undermining our constitution and our freedoms. We have to truly connect the dots. We need leadership that can bring people and information together in a way that doesn't exist today, perhaps in the form of a joint energy task force north. From the Alaskan native to the Norwegian scientist to the skipper of the healing, many will contribute and many will lead. Until then, our people and interests remain vulnerable to tactical and strategic surprises. America will never be the aggressor in the Arctic. Our efforts go only far enough to defend our homeland, especially from intercontinental ballistic missiles launched by North Korea or others, to deter, defeat, attack, and to project power. And with overwhelming force, a force that makes clear to the world that in America there is no better friend and no worse enemy. A force that engages the brain for the weapon. A force committed to upholding principles that benefit all nations, like respect for rule of law, individual rights, and freedom of navigation and overflight, especially open shipping lanes. Our forces, along with the forces of seven other nations, Arctic nations, are on the front lines of defense. Side by side, they are a source of strength to us all. Meanwhile, we must establish greater unity of effort across our government to deal with the realities of an opening Arctic. This starts at the top with the creation of a special assistant to the president for the Arctic region. This person could be aided by a strong advisory group of experts and could co-chair the White House Arctic executive steering committee with the vice president. Through them, our first immediate task is to take a top-to-bottom review of where we are strong, where we are not, where we may succeed and where we may not. Making sure that our best talent and the full necessary resources are aligned and applied to high-priority programs and projects. The Arctic is a proving ground for peace and its future lies and its international partnerships. A system of cooperation and dependence in progress. And to realize this vision, America must adapt and strengthen the key alliances, friendships, and principles that serve as the bedrock for peace and stability to a new set of opportunities, challenges, and responsibilities in the Arctic. In practice, we must spearhead new bilateral and multilateral strategies and promote more policy instruments for promoting regional security and economic growth. With any like-minded nation, this brings me to my last point. Let us re-examine our attitude toward Russia, our most critical test of partnerships in the Arctic. Our partnerships with Canada, Norway, and others will remain critical. But Russia will likely represent our single most important bilateral relationship in the region. For the simple fact that together, we share a majority of the natural resources, as well as the Bering Strait, which could very well become the world's most important strategic choke point in the decades ahead. You know, as hard as it is for some of us to adjust to that today, we ought to take the long view and welcome it. There will be obstacles and setbacks. There will be differences in approach and opinion. And there will be doubts and discouragement. It's discouraging to read a recent authoritative Russian text on military strategy in the Arctic that perceives the U.S. and NATO as aggressors. We cannot and will not ignore Russian aggression or the buildup of their forces, even as we look for meaningful ways to work with them. When you look towards forums like the Arctic Council, or if you talk to Russians one-on-one as people, there's more that unites us and divides us. And none is more stronger than our mutual interests in a safe, stable, and prosperous Arctic region. You know, even in times of competing global priorities and tightening budgets, America has mustered the moral courage to achieve long-term national goals. Theodore Roosevelt completed the construction of the Panama Canal ahead of time, under budget and corruption-free, providing America and the world the safer and cheaper way to trade goods. Eisenhower's bold decision to create a modern federal highway system remains a blueprint for an economic and social blueprint today. Kennedy's grand vision to land a man on the moon in a decade was one of the greatest mobilizations of resource and manpower in American history and boosted American confidence and prestige at home and around the world. Reagan's multifaceted, cost-conscious approach to ending the Cold War ushered in a new era of U.S.-Russia relations without firing a shot. The Arctic provides America all these same opportunities today. And you all are doing the hard work the important work the likes of which have never been seen before work that will last through the ages. This defense community of which I'm honored to be a part of has taught me that ordinary people when working together can achieve extraordinary things. Only together will we rise with the tide break through the ice and win the Arctic. Thank you very much and I look forward to our conversation.


The study found that hypertrophic chondrocytes can survive beyond terminal differentiation and give rise to a progeny of osteoblasts participating in endocondral bone formation. This suggests that there may be two distinct paths for the production of endocondral bone, one involving pericondrial cells and another involving hypertrophic chondrocytes. This article was authored by John Park, Matias Gebhart, Svitlana Golovchenko, and others.


And there's where we stand at this point in time. Now last time we were talking about an advanced payment type of situation, an unearned revenue type of situation. And we used a method that works quite well logistically for the bookkeeping side of things, but not perfect for financial reporting side of things. Although I think you could do adjusting entries and I think that method would work quite well, but some people really don't like that because they don't like to have a negative receivable kind of concept. They want the item to go on the books as a liability when you create it. So let's just recap our scenario here. We're thinking about a situation on the customer side of things, the revenue cycle where at the end of the day we typically expect cash to be going up. Remember, there's different cycles you might have depending on the industry you're in. If you're in gig work, if you're getting paid by YouTube, you could just record a deposit possibly with the bank feeds and record the revenue. That would be easy. But if you have a cash register, a food truck, some kind of register situation, then you usually have to use to create sales receipt and then make the deposit. And then if you're in an industry where you have to invoice people, then you're going to have to do the work first like the bookkeeping or the accounting or the law work or the landscaping and then bill someone or send them an invoice, increase in accounts receivable, then receive the payment, then make the deposit. However, some industries are even stranger still, even stranger still, where you get paid first before doing the actual work. And that means you're kind of here and you're getting the payment first. What do you do then? Classically, in a textbook problem, you're going to increase cash from a journal entry standpoint and the other side is going to go to unearned revenue. Now to do that, you can't really use the receive payment form. That's what we tried to use last time. We did use last time and it worked well, but the problem is it's not connected to unearned revenue. It's going to increase the checking account or cash or undeposited funds or deposits, payments to deposit, whatever you want to call it. And then the other side would decrease accounts receivable, but it was decreasing accounts receivable before there was anything in accounts receivable because it's not attached to an invoice. That's the problem from a financial reporting purposes. It should be going to a liability because you got cash, but you owe it back to somebody or you owe the goods and services. In our case, where we got a down payment on a guitar, an expensive piece of inventory we're expecting to be selling and we either owe them then the guitar to finalize the transaction, making an invoice for it, or we owe them the money back. That's why it's a liability until the point in time that you earn it.


Good morning, everyone. It is currently at 5.37. I just got up I'm about to go to training. I have training at 6.  Welcome to a week in my life LA It's my last week in LA for a bit. So very exciting.

I'm just like in the studio Behind the scenes like morning routine have Facebook group stuff like that stuff Thursday will be podcast promo Friday It'll be like something fun and funny and whatever but very excited about that I also really reached out to a few country people So I'm gonna be probably going to Nashville in the next few months to like batch or court with them try to think I'm like I Realized also like if I just shower and get ready and leave immediately after my workout. I don't get tired I'm kind of like hitting a wall a little bit I'm gonna do some more work probably like an hour or so I might take like a 30 minute nap And I just put laundry away like there's so much laundry on my bed right now that I just put there So that's what I'm gonna be doing But I've been planning out the Instagram and getting things together and I feel like my Podcast Instagram is something I'd like really push to the side whatever anyways I'm really excited about this this may sound dumb to you guys cuz you're like it's an Instagram But it's gonna be like very valuable like it's not just an Instagram It's gonna be like something that you look too often. So we're very very pumped I've been planning it on here and it looks really good so far So like I have my podcast promo for the next month already Which like normally I do those day of if I even do them and I'm just so bad about it So we're getting better and I'm very excited, but yeah, that is what we're doing right now I'm so freaking tired. All right guys. I'm having a lot of fun with this I actually just did some school work. That wasn't fun But I just made a post that I'm gonna save to troughs in post tomorrow as my Wednesday post But it's like my LA tour like my favorite places in LA So if you guys come to LA kind of like the tour guide basically So I just put a lot of its food related some of its workout church mostly coffee all that Anyways, I'm posting that we're just gonna be posting so much more. So if you guys want to follow It's just the I a Y SM Instagram it's gonna look so freaking cool. It's 2 30. I knocked out a bunch of stuff I actually had more segments than I thought left for some reason But I have the next like four or five days of post ready to go. They're actually pretty helpful So I'm really excited, but anyways, I'm going to go to my dishes and then Go put my laundry away and then hopefully take like a 45-minute nap. I just find that it's probably the best idea I don't need to leave for Lawrence until like 5 30 and it's currently 2 20s I have two full like laundry baskets of clothes to put away. So I'm gonna do my laundry And organize this and I'm gonna feel much better about myself at the end of it I hope my black sweats are in here. We will see guys literally cannot believe I'm saying this I just posted my first tiktok. It's kanzilla's with hay. Go follow me. It's really Really something else guys. I can my room, but I am wearing an all-black sweatsuit. I've just been lounging for the past hour I've been lounging for the past like hour Anyways, I'm going to head to Lawrence and we are going to record for our podcast I'm really excited for um, okay this water bottle I posted this in an Instagram store this morning at like literally 6 a.m When I was going to work out and everyone thought it was a vodka bottle and like I get it It does look like one, but I'm Rest assured guys. I am not taking shots before my 6 a.m. Training.  That's pretty good for me. I've I never gone out of people's pockets All right, so I'm gonna head over. It's like a 30 minute drive and Then I will see you guys later All right, so I'm heading over. It's like a 30 minute drive 6 p.m. It's pretty late for me nowadays guys. All right guys I'm at Lawrence. We recorded a podcast episode. Oh Yeah Great pitch Good morning guys. It's 5 30. I'm up for my training. I only have training today. I don't have Pilates So it's only a one-hour workout. It's still really hard But since it's like half of what I did yesterday. It feels like it's so easy But yeah this morning. I'm actually gonna go to a last-minute preview I'll explain this when I get back But I thought today it was gonna be like really open because I have a lot of to-do stuff, but something popped up, so Yeah, anyways, I'm gonna head on. I'm gonna put my camera here because I feel like the morning is kind of getting repetitive I'm wearing my I love you so much merch. It's really wrinkly But if any of you guys want it, let me know. Do you have me? It'll send you a link. All right guys It's 8 40. I just showered got ready did the whole hair thing. It looks um Honestly a bit rough today. It's not my best hair day. Honestly. I also don't love this top with these shoes Maybe I'll change. I'm wearing these devise. They need to be washed. They're way too big, but honestly like It's just I just don't like changing that that's where we're at here Okay, guys, this has literally been the craziest morning. Oh my gosh. Okay, so wow. I'm just like really Excited about life. Um, I Decided to that I think I am gonna ship my car to Texas because I am gonna be there more So it would make more sense like it is gonna be more of a pain to not have a car here But I'm gonna have to figure that out and also like I don't have to ship stuff then I can just put it in my car And just pack my car down with Whatever I have so I'm thinking that's the move anyways. It's not as expensive as I thought it was gonna be So currently right now. I'm on my way to It's like a movie screening So basically yesterday, this is a very last-minute thing I got invited to like the Harley Quinn screening thing for the new Harley Quinn movie, but I'm Doing like a pay deal with them So I have to go to the movie and then like do a tweet which is cool. Like that's a really freaking cool Job to book. Can you tell I'm just like really crazy like my life is wild right now By my shortness of breath. Anyways, yeah, I'm gonna just take my car to Texas I was gonna just buy a new car in Texas But honestly the car that I would buy I like but I would rather just ship my car now Keep my car for a while and then like buy myself a new car for graduation Like I don't really feel like I deserve a new car right now Especially with like the amount of money I'm putting into this house and like obviously like getting a house and buying a house It's like really expensive. So that is the new plan. I'm gonna schedule that when I get back today I'm gonna listen to mood. Oh my gosh guys today. I was on both podcast yesterday, and they're both up today So if you guys didn't know so the self-made CEO and mood I was on both of those podcast So I'm gonna listen to them. I never listened to myself, but I wouldn't listen because I already listened to them So, oh my gosh, okay. I'm on my way. Bye. We made it to the movie We're going to see Birds of Prey the Harley Quinn movie I'm doing a little deal, which is exciting, but this is our breakfast really pumped. We have some coffee It is 10 15. We're going to the movie at 11. Very exciting. Just finished the movie. It's like 1 p.m. It was good It was just like It was so stressful for the time of day that it is and I have like a full work day It was good that we got breakfast before and it was fun and yeah, thanks for having me guys But I'm like, oh my gosh Also, it was kind of cool because it was like girl power and Harley Quinn literally makes you think I can do anything This is really gonna bother me. I need scissors. I just need to go to UPS I sold this on Instagram this mark Jagos bag RIP and then I actually love these bags and it's too many like I don't wear them anymore because I wore them a ton Then I need to go return to her fall And then I am finally gonna be able to go home So since I decided I am going to ship my car to Texas I have put together some stuff So I'm basically just gonna be taking a lot of like bags and stuff and then some shoes Random stuff that I just need But I'm most excited because I get to take all of my prints and stuff Which I'm excited for because even if I get a different place in LA in August It's just gonna be like a room potentially like a shared or something like I don't need all this decor I don't love that print. I want to switch out that print possibly But these are just cool and it really matches my vibe But I was also thinking this would literally be perfect This would literally be perfect in my like kitchen nook area So we'll see about that and then I have some books I literally just threw this up together two seconds ago. There will definitely be more stuff But we have to make sure it fits. I have no idea if that's gonna fit But we're just gonna really try our best All right, I'm gonna shower exfoliating everything in self tan with this new Isle of Paradise tanner We will see if it is dark too dark or not. I guess Updates to come. I do like the medium one a lot But it just gives me a glow like not enough color So I really want to try the dark and see how much I like this one. This is my post self tan outfit We all have one. I just like cut one of my like gosh out Okay, anyways, um, I got a few things down on my to-do list I'm gonna go do the rest and take a call while I get my car washed I need to throw some stuff away too before I do that. I also need to go to Starbucks first I need to stop drinking coffee in the afternoon because then it's very hard for me to fall asleep at 8 p.m. Like I need to tonight but if I Don't I just fall asleep like at 3 p.m. Like it is right now I did all the Warner Brothers stuff that I needed to for the movie deal and I'm ready to go So I'm feeling really good. I'm just excited about life right now. So I feel like this week's vlog is gonna be Unbelievably long But I just went through my car and I threw away everything and got rid of everything. Those are just clothes I want to put in my closet, but everything else like to the most random stuff. I've gotten rid of everything I'm gonna get it clean. I also just had some Gator until like I don't need this much at this point But I want the egg bites anyways Um There's something else I was gonna say and now I'm totally forgetting I'm gonna try to just get the inside of my car cleaned But at my car wash, they don't let you really do that for some reason kind of odd I know just got my car wash. I feel like a new human ignore that box back there But yeah, I feel like a actual new human being Okay, so I actually got way more done while my car was getting washed than I thought So I have like a probably three or four more hours of computer work And I want to be in bed by eight tonight because the next three days are crazy and I leave four days from now I don't even know what I'm gonna pack. That's really interesting. So anyways I'm gonna get everything possibly that I can possibly get done Done so then I'm just kind of set that will be like the rest of today And then I'm gonna watch scandal and hopefully go to bed really early. So we'll see what happens. Good morning guys It's 5 30. I am wearing my workout stuff. I'm going to training at Six, I don't know why I just forgot and then Pilates at seven I cut my toe though last night and it like really freeing her.

It's actually very very good Also, let me know how unhealthy this drink is for me. This is just my second time getting it I'm gonna just get like a block coffee or something, but this just tastes a lot better and then I got My egg bites the egg white egg bites.

Honestly if I did a live show with anyone like I would want it to be with them if we did like a podcast like Collaboration live show and not just like the I'm gonna feed like a one-off guest honestly because I like really want to do a Live show I also really want to do six episodes a week But I don't know if that's like too much. So it's to come on up, but yeah, it was really great I'm gonna pull my hair back. I curled it and did that for no reason. So here we are. Good morning, everyone I'm kind of getting a little email Only because well first off sorry to stop vlogging yesterday I went to Maddie and Scout's record with Lauren. It was really fun and then I went home and I Like basically went to bed. So surprise surprise. Okay, so another shocker guys I am on my way to training. So normally like you guys know I do training and I do hop a lot He's because daylight will normally teach a seven She's not teaching the seven today, and she just texted me like late last night I don't even like just saying I'm not teaching the seven, but I'm already signed up So the teacher who's teaching is like fine, but it's my last hop a lot is cost for a long time So I really wanted her to teach it But I don't think she knows my last one for the week. I mean she knows I leave Sunday But I'm not going to Saturday because my car is getting picked up and she's not even teaching anyways But I actually like the other teacher. So it'll be okay, and I'm still doing training with a lot So it'll be fine, but Yeah, I know this is kind of awful But I don't mean it that way but the things I'm the most upset about leaving which I'm not like even ups I would upset is like a way stronger word to use than not what I feel right now But would be like Pilates and my Pilates friends because I've made I literally have friends there that I like talk to and like keep up with and stuff and Just like friends that I like love and adore that aren't my like everyday go-to BFFs because Those people I will see a lot. You know what I'm saying like it's more like oh my god Obviously, I'm gonna miss Pilates so pretty much, but like the girls there Just like the people I'm not as close with that's kind of what I'm more sad about because I'm like Oh, like that sucks, but the people that I am close with I'm still gonna see all the time, you know, I Don't know if that makes sense Anyways, I'm on my way. I've been loving this whole 6 a.m. Training thing as I've said a billion times guys try it out. It's actually great. I have my hoodies mystery here, but I Just took my last Pilates class for the next however long at least a month. It was honestly like really sad I really have made friends at Pilates like everyone's like let me get your number And it was just like really really sad because I have friends there that I like literally work out with every single morning And those are last-day of training and honestly, this is truly my hardest goodbye Like I love my friends here, but I'm so gonna see my friends are gonna come and visit me and like we're gonna be together Whatever, this is just like my everyday ritual.
