What's going on infinite fam? Welcome back to another video. If you guys are new to the channel, make sure you hit that subscribe button and join the family. Guys, first and foremost, I just came back from the gym. I look crazy. Isaiah is now with me. He's using the bathroom right now, but we have such an exciting video for you. And honestly, it's gonna be fun for me, but I don't know how fun it's gonna be for Isaiah. So guys, Isaiah's always busting my chops, telling me that he can do all the workouts that I do at the gym. I always come home and I'm like, today's workout was hard, but I got through it. And he's always just like, yeah, I can do that. I can do that. That's gonna be super easy. Honestly, it's all fun and games until you're put to the test. So babe, today's your chance to be put to the test. So today I'm going to take Isaiah to the gym and I'm going to make him do all the workouts that I do when I'm at the gym being trained. And we are going to see if he can handle the pressure or not. So guys, if you're ready for today's video, don't forget to smash that like button and comment team Denise in the comment section below because this isn't a prank, but trust me, I'm gonna get him with something. Let's get it guys. Have I been talking a lot of shit? Yes. Yes, I have. Am I scared for what she's gonna try to put me through today? No, I'm not. Oh, you're not scared. I'm not scared. You'll be coming from the gym, talking about un-sore, babe.  And then go to the clip where he's like dying. I'm not, I'm telling you, I'm gonna, every workout you're gonna give me, these are workouts from your trainer, right? Yes. Okay, so they might be challenging, yes. Oh, now. But I'm gonna show you how I'm gonna do it and I'm not gonna complain about it, all right? So. I don't complain. If your trainer is watching this, all right, Eileen, I'm gonna master all these workouts that you're giving me, right? I know.  But if I actually go to the gym with you and then you up the weight and all that, that's when I might start dying. Exactly. So. So, FII, our gym only has one dumbbell. That's why I'm not scared. And it's literally 25 pounds. I like do that. That's why I'm not scared.  Yeah, you're not scared. It's probably gonna be easier for you than it is for me. When I go to Eileen, then I'm gonna be scared. Maybe. I don't know, we might find out one day. I don't know. But, with all that being said, I am ready to go get my workout, all right? I'm trying to get my body right for Jamaica. I'm trying to take shirtless pics. I gotta get rid of my man boobs and my stomach, all right? That's what we're gonna be doing for the next month. I've been doing it low-key for like what? Like what, a week already? Boy, even though it's three times, that's it. Not even!  We're- Lie, you're gonna tell me I only went to the gym three times? I thought you had, yes. No, I have not. Okay. It's more like four or five. Exactly. All right, well anyway, you gotta start somewhere. But enough talking, let's get to the workout. We'll see you guys at the gym, all right? Empty gym, just the way we like it. I'm gonna hand over the camera now to my trainer. Yes! So let's go, here, take the camera so I can start talking my seat. Well, I have to take off my coat first, I gotta get settled. You seem tired out just from the walk here. I ran, actually. You ran, that's what I like to see. Exactly, oh, a huge hill. A huge hill, it was a slight hill. It was still a hill. It was a slight hill. And I just got out of working out, so. Okay, I'll give you a pass for that. Let me come down and then I'll get back to you. So here we go, guys, here we go. What are we starting with? Jumping jacks? No. Swats, what's the whole big workout? All right, so we're gonna start with the warm-ups, okay? Okay, what's the warm-up? So the warm-up is, are you ready for this? Let's go, I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm pumped. What did your trainer send you? Let's see. Okay, so you're gonna start with 20 high knees. 20 high knees, that's an easy right? Yes, so that's 40 total, so 20 each leg. 20 each leg? Yes, then you're gonna do 20 shoulder taps. What's that? Shoulder taps is, I'll show you. We're gonna go one workout at a time. 20 high knees, each leg. But wait, it's a circuit, so you have to do this whole set first, take a minute break. You do it three times, this whole set, okay? So this is what you're gonna do. 20 high knees, 40 total. 20 shoulder taps, 10 jump squats, and 10 burpees, all right? And I'll give you light work, okay? Light, this is light? This is light, like you should see what we do. All right, now here's the nervous laugh even in. Exactly, so here we go, 40 high knees, let's get it. Ah, I'm gonna look at you while I do it. No, are you counting? Are you counting? You counting, this is not my responsibility. You go like this. 20 each arm or like 10 and 10? 10 and 10, all right. So 20 total, but try not to rock your body. I got a break? No, you don't, go. Here we go, keep that butt down. You gotta be breathing, engage that core. Look at him. Unengage your core, what's the next one? Next one, ready? Oh, this is gonna be great. We're gonna do 10 jump squats. Squat, like how? Let me show you.  Like that. You have to have your elbows to your knees very low. Okay.  How many times? He's freaking nervous, look at that. All right, so correct, I'll form if I'm wrong. All right. So it's like this. Let me see. All right, yeah, you gotta sit that booty down. Okay, how many? You're doing 10, I'm only giving you 10. All right, so come up and jump, right? Yep. All in one motion. Uh-huh, uh-huh. Why are you closing your legs? See, the front should leave burpees. So? A lot of people be doing burpees the wrong way in different ways. So the burpees, you go like this. Guys, I'm not breathing heavy. That's the draft. You're doing it at the same time. No, you're putting one foot after the second round. You're gonna do better, right? I did great.  Second set, right? Yep. What is the total of your high knees? High knees, 40, let's get it. One, two, three, four, five, two, seven, uh-huh. Make sure you breathe. Mm-hmm. Gauze, let's get it.  Go ahead. This is what's in my energy. Go. Don't close your legs when you do it. Jump straight up. A deep squat, yourself. It ain't easy. This is just a warm-up. You want that to make a body or what?  Yeah, I know how it feels. Trust me. You want me to do the last set? No. No? Burpees, right? Yep, here we go, 10. All the way down, baby. You're only doing one leg at a time. You said no. You're supposed to do both legs at the same time. I got bad knees. Those two count? Nope. Start over. If you don't like me, just say that. I love you. I want you to do it right. Uh-huh. All right, what's the next thing, y'all? You're not done. All right, let's just start the next set. Now you talk. All right, let's go. High knees. 40. All right, drink some water. So bad. Oh, she's sore. She's sore, believe it. And now I do it. It should be illegal. This is not okay. This should be illegal. Like one of your strong suits, especially upper body. So I think you can do the rest. I think you can do it. Hold on enough. So I'm having him do some incline chest wise. Unfortunately, it's going to be a little restrictive because we don't have much to work with in this gym. But I think you can do it. So we're starting with 12. So let's get it. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. This is an easy part. How do you feel? We're doing 12. I was 12. Okay. I thought I counted 10, but maybe. All right. You can't count. Oh, I can't count.  How much am I doing right here? That one, just do whatever weight that you can. But you're doing 12. All right, I've got to add 80. Uh-huh. Let's go. Those seem too easy. Up the weight. Control. That's too fast. Yup. Slow and control. That's the best way to do it. You're pumping through those things. You're not feeling it. You're not training your muscles. Oh, I'm feeling it. You're feeling it, but you're just pumping. That's not putting in the actual work that you should. All right, take a little short break, and then you're going to jump into the other ones. How's that ice sweat feel? It burns. It burns. Let me see. Let me see. Back up, bruh. And you're not even doing the first set. All right, guys. So this is the last workout for this circuit. I'm only doing one set of each circuit because your boy is drained. I tap out. You win. Okay, I will work my way into three sets. For today, I'm going to do one set of this circuit and one set of the next circuit. Guys, Isaiah is at this point belligerent. I've got to turn your arm. Just keep it straight, completely straight. There we go. It feels weird, but that's how you do it. You got to do 10 workouts. I want your pity. The exhaustion you saw before, you're supposed to take easy on me. Easy on me. This show is that you don't care. You care about your health, and I want you to get right. I'm a handicap, and you're working with me too much, and that's not okay. Whatever. Completely. There we go. The last circuit, again, I only did one set of each circuit, except for the first circuit. I did the three, even though they're half-assed. You only did two, actually. You just got to say it. Don't tell me. You just got to say it. I underestimated this. I give credit words due. I apologize. I will work my way up to three sets eventually. I don't know how you do it, but I give you credit. That is it for today's video. I'm dead. I'm going to go eat a Twinkie and relax. Take a nice shower. It's time for today's post notification shout-out. Today's post notification shout-out goes out to Annalise Lopez. Shout-out to you, thank you for your love and support. If you guys want a post notification shout-out, all you guys got to do is... Like, comment, share, and subscribe. We'll see you guys in the next video, if I'm still alive. Peace out.


Thank you very much. Good afternoon. Wherever you are in this great country, this is Yemi Oshibaju. You're always ready, always accurate traffic reporter, updating you on the traffic situation across the nation. So let's go to the Federal Capital Territory. As of a few minutes ago, the Kefi Abuja Inward Section, traffic from Yaya on the bridge to Kubo towards the city centre is slightly free flowing with no implement reported. Umar Musayar-Aduaway, the situation report shows that there is free flow of traffic on both sections of the expressway. So the general conclusion of course is that road users are enjoined to obey traffic rules, avoid dangerous driving and use the roads is very responsive. All is going to do well today. This is going to be a great and exciting day and I'm sure you are going to have some really, really good news. Good luck to you all. Thank you dear listeners and stay safe always. Thank you so much. Your Excellency is a rare privilege having you today. We trust that when we invite you next, you will oblige us. We're so grateful. Thank you very much.


So there are five of the Merlin trails within the North Hogwarts region area and today I'm going to guide you through each and every one of them. Okay, so to activate the Merlin trails you do need those mellow sweet leaves. Now I do suggest you head into the Magic Kneep vendor within Hogsmeade and purchase in the seeds from him and then grow on them yourselves within your room of requirement. Otherwise it's going to take you a while waiting and then to say stuck so you can keep buying the leaves it's also going to cost you a lot of gold. So yes grow your own to make life a lot easier. Okay so there are five of these Merlin trails within the North Hogwarts region area and today I'm going to guide you through each and every one of them. Okay so the first one you can see right here on the map. This one requires you to have the spell of Confringo but once you do simply come here activate the trail. Then using Confringo you need to light these pillars. One is a behind a vine which you need to clear with Confringo then be fast and light the other two. So yes light all three inputs at session. If you do it right if do it quick enough you'll complete this trial. Simple. Okay so the next Merlin trial within the area you can see right here on the map. This one requires you to have the spell of Repair Roll. When you do simply activate the trial people and then you need to just basically repair the force surrounding statues around the Merlin trial. Simple. This next Merlin trial we can see right here on the map requires you to have the spell of Flippendo. Simply activate the trial here people then use Flippendo to match the symbols as you see I do on screen now. So do what I do and get this one done. The next one guys is quite simple all you need to do is basically activate the Merlin trial then use Lumos to attract the three sets of butterflies and lead them to these stone pillars. A nice and easy one guys. Okay so the last one here is super super simple too.  Real easy people. And there we have it guys. Those are the five Merlin trials within the north Hogwarts region area.

Welcome to Drinks Made Easy. Today we're taking a look at a miniature version of the Washington Apple Cocktail, the Washington Apple Shot, with just a slight variation. And you might be asking yourself, why? Well, the answer is, this is a sweet and easy cocktail, but sometimes you want just a little of something and not a huge bit of it, kind of like a little snack bar instead of a king-sized.  To build your Washington Apple Shot, you'll start with one-third of an ounce of apple pucker, third of an ounce of crown royal, just standard crown, and a third of an ounce of cranberry juice. Cap that off into a shaker to pull of ice and give it a quick shake. Pour into the shot glass of your choice.  And there you have the Washington Apple Shot. What are you doing? Staying out of frame. You didn't see me. Oh my goodness. I'm done. This is why we can't have nice things. Yep. Mike drinks them. Thanks so much for watching. Please be sure to like, subscribe, and click on the bell icon so you'll be notified any time we release a new video. And as always, please drink responsibly, because everybody likes to make friends, but nobody likes to make them in a prison shower. Cheers.

change. What's up y'all? Pardon. I get you situated. Sorry I'm tardy for this party. I hope y'all are having an awesome day. What's today? Tuesday? Can you turn my lights on in here for me? I guess I could just open a curtain. Hey guys. Hey, hi. Hello, how are you? Can you come up in your spot belly? Okay. Oh, probably could have done that. But thanks. Central Florida. How are things down in Central Florida? Have any weather issues from Elsa? Hope not. We're all having an awesome day. I hope so. So if you're new here, hi, welcome. I'm Erica and Jeff just came over and helped me with some lights. We are artists till death. We go live. Every day, usually. Usually at 6pm central, except for on Tuesdays, we go live at 2pm and something else. Oh yeah. It's always art. It's usually resin. But we are very diversified artists. And so, some days it's airbrush, some days body paint, some days it's acrylic, some days it's glitter, rhinestones. I know I'm missing like 17 different mediums we work with. But anyways, we teach live tutorials every day. And today, I'm doing an ocean piece on this cradle board. I went ahead and prepped it. It is from our shop artist till death dot com. It's like a canvas, but it's not. It's a wooden canvas, I guess. So that I won't dip in the middle. Perfect for any heavy medium like acrylic pours or resin pours. In my opinion. Do you say no ripping and tearing? Okay. Hi from Vegas. Jeff's gonna be in Vegas next week.  And Jeff will be with some of his friends in Vegas creating trouble. You know, we're creatives. Anyways. So let's get started. I'm gonna add some shimmer to this piece by using this Viva modeling cream. It doesn't look like much in here, but it creates an awesome little shimmer effects. And I'm using it to make it look like now under the ocean when the waves break and create the sand moving. I wish I had the words for this. The words are hard. Okay. But essentially, when you look into the water, you see different ripples in the sand created by the waves moving the sand. And you also see the shimmer from the sun hitting the different angles of the water. I'm trying to do both of those things with an underpainting. You can't see it very well right now. I'm sorry. That sounds probably very annoying. I'm not going to cover the whole thing. I'm just going to create some lines. But after we add the resin, you'll really be able to see it. So I'll give you an up close shot of how how it looks at that point as well. There's not that many occasions where we do underpainting. Well, I guess it depends on the piece. There's really no point in doing an underpainting unless you're using transparent and with oceans, I always use transparent pigments to get that depth that it really looks like water. I'm not teaching a class in Vegas. We need to find another venue. I don't know if Bronson's letting people teach in his space anymore. So if you know the place where we can teach in Vegas, we're happy to set that up. I think once we get back from this round of travel plans, we need to get with gingerms about doing that Santa Cruz class. I'm almost done chopping on this shimmer. I can hardly even see it, but I promise you, it'll make a difference. I'm trying not to let the peaks of the pigment be too high because I don't want it to interrupt the flow of the waves that we're gonna add. The waves need a fairly smooth based flow over. If it doesn't have that, your your ocean cells, I guess we'll call it, they'll split and it just doesn't look there. But if that happens, then I'll just use it as a teaching moment. I'll show you guys what to try to avoid. Okay, I did not do airbrushing for prep. This is spray paint. Thank you, Clara. I got Joe Ella. I'm single Joe. So this modeling case dries super fast. I'm just hitting it with the heat gun just to be sure. I'm running my hands over it to knock down any high points. As you can see, not a whole lot has come up. Sweet. I went ahead and mixed up my resin. If you guys know anything about our channel, you know that our favorite resin forever and ever amen is stone coats, art coat. However, for all the things that it's amazing at, unfortunately, this style of ocean, it just doesn't hold up to the amount of heat that I'm about to add to the resin. While art coat is very, very heat resistant, once cured, I don't know what it is about this process, it just doesn't do what I need it to do. So I am using my go to resin for oceans, which is just resins, diamond coat. If you're in the States, you can get it from me at artisthildup.com. I'll have links down below the video. Otherwise, you can get it from just resin. Right. Now I need some this and then some this. Not going to need a lot of white. That's why I'm using that smaller cup. Okay, what modeling paste were you just using with brush? It is from Viva Color. I actually got this from our fairy art mother Judy, but she probably got it from Amazon. But the brand is Viva made in Germany, Viva decor, Viva dash decor.de or creative imaginations.us apparently. Is it going to focus? Of course not. Where would it focus? Nope, this way. What am I doing? Oh, yeah. So for my ocean, I'm using my go to bondi tense from color obsession. It is of the 800 colors that we carry easily in my top five colors. It is transparent, which means you can see through it like water. And you can build the color from like a couple drops, which is what I have here all the way to all of the drops, I suppose, if you wanted to. And you can make the color lighter or darker, you can vary your shades, which I'm going to do. I'm going to do my shore area with this and then add a couple more drops as I get deeper into the ocean. But it will never be opaque. Thank you, Claire, for that look. So we got our first color. Now for the second color, I'm going to use Belize Blues from Resinart. I'm not sure why I've decided to do this. I usually don't. I'm gonna do less than what I've got poured out, actually. I usually don't use powders in general, much less in my oceans. But I use this color on a geo the other day. And I've been wanting to have a reason to use it. That's arguably too much powder, but I'm a glutton for color. Can that be a brand or a shirt glutton for color? Y'all better not take that. You heard it here first. Copyright pending. Joe, what are you asking when I will have in stock? The Bondi or the Belize Blues? Is that what this is? Also, since I'm going to be in Belize, this I thought was appropriate. I actually wish it was a little bit darker. But is what it is. Actually, I'm going to drop some blue lagoon in it to darken it. It is somewhere. There it is. Another awesome thing about these pigments is you can mix them and create your own custom colors. Here we go. Still just as beautiful and shimmery as just a little bit darker of shade. So luxurious. Now I'm going to use lures angel white. You can also use color obsession. Snow white or titanium from just resin. They have the same or similar consistencies. Color obsession may be a little bit thinner, slightly. Just want to put enough in the resin to make it opaque. Which we got cool. So I have my shoreline. I'm going to actually put my clear further out. Further in makes more sense. Because I like what it the resin looks like when it's just clear. And then you have the waves. Other than that, I like to have clear in between my white and my colored case because it creates a separation so that my white doesn't turn blue once I start moving and heating up and mixing my colors around with the heat. I'm a sleephold. Hello, Lady crafting nook. How are things? How are you? So I'm just moving the resin around so I don't have any raw spots. Next step is my shoreline color, which is the couple drops of Bondi. Then I'm going to make a little bit more adding a couple extra drops. So the first one I did two drops. We'll start with four drops and then we'll add from there. You can always add your color. Super difficult to take color out of resin. In fact, I don't know anyone that's done that successfully. If you have seen someone do that, send me a link. Hey Evelyn. So Daphne. Lord Taylor, what's up, lady? So in a second, you'll see how adding a couple extra drops will change the color of a tint even though it's out of the same bottle. It's very Willy Wonka like in my head.  Anyway, I guess we're going to amaze the things that are simple, more simple. I'm just going to move these two variants of the same color together, blend them a little bit and add just a tad bit more for the deepest part of my ocean. What's up Petra? Your most recent geode is amazing, gorgeous stunning as always. I'm actually going to add a couple oops, sorry. I just Ritterhoffed y'all. Yes, if you haven't seen Annery Ritterhoff's work and you're into acrylic art, no acrylic cores, I guess same. Check her out too. So in this one, I added a couple drops of the blue lagoon into my Bondi. So it's going to be for real deeper color. So as the title says, this is going to be an easy, easy peasy ocean. Once all this prep is done, which it almost is about to be the exciting part. All right, that looks ocean-y. I'm going to add some of this Belize Blues and then blend those out. You could have done oops, all of what I just did with just the Bondi. If you didn't want to add the shimmer and you don't have the other colors that I used, it would still look amazing. I need a rag. Thank you, Sue, for reminding people to give me all of your thumbs. Erica, what is the called for geodes? One more time? What's up, Jessica? That's my sister's name. So I love it. Okay, your thumb is definitely up. Well, I appreciate that. So now we're going to add our white. We don't want to add too much white and we're going to add it to where the white that I'm adding now touches both the clear resin as well as the board.  All your pretty blues is the fun part. This is going to go from basic ocean to what? In less than a minute. So, well, I hope anyways, we'll find out together. This is a heat gun we use. It is a super cheap, no name brand. It just says hot air gun. This is the everything for it. The voltage, the Hertzes and the wattages. I got it off Amazon, but that's about all I know about it. So I'm going to use a platypus attachment. If you don't have one of these, we have them on our website, artistle.com, which is where you can get the pigments too as well. And also, Jessica, I'm using a little res angel white for this one, but you can also use titanium. It'd be just fine. I'm going to use this to create my waves. It's going to just... It creates a different style wave. And if you haven't seen my video on heat sources and ocean waves, I welcome you to check that out because it'll show you what it would look like if you use a heat gun versus a torch, different attachment. Here we go. High heat and all the way high air flow. I wonder if I should bring you down closer for this. Maybe possibly. We'll see. I'm going to pre-heat a little bit of it. All right, I'm going to let these cells, the waves, stretch out a little bit. Put it on a bit of a tilt. I'm using the torch to just stretch certain areas. You can see that mainly the area that's moving is the area that it's getting a little bit more heat. Move a little bit further up the way. Oops, sorry about that. I'm not touching the flame to the resin. I'm just... Oh my goodness. Okay. Trying to get the camera to stop moving. I'm just touching the heat. So once it starts to move, I pick up my torch. You don't want to scorch your resin. It's super easy to do, particularly with a torch. So be very mindful. Once the back of this wave to kind of feather out into the ocean, that's why I'm still heating it at this point. So with the torch, I'm just kind of hand picking what areas I want to add more cells. You can see where I'm hitting it with the torch. That's where everything's really moving and creating those cells and waves. I think so too. I think it makes a whole lot of different. I'm liking the prep with the way before and really makes a difference. Great. What's up, Tim? Sorry.  And I want it to really look like a wave is crashing up onto the beach. So I'm starting a little bit more there. Be a second. Can I borrow your face? No, the resin that's on the board right now is way hotter than the resin that I have in these cups. So as the resin sits next to the hotter resin, as the cooler resin sits next to the hotter resin, it will catch up to that temperature and this noticeable white line will fade in just a little bit better. For example, this is where we first added the new white and it's already blending in a little bit. Whereas this is where I most recently added the white and it's still very noticeable. You can also just hit it with a little bit of heat to further motivate it to catch up. But that's risky, obviously. Next lady at next layer add tiny mermaids. Possibly. Oh, there's a hair. Do you guys like what this looks like? I was really hard looking cells right here. Leave it. Let it live or mess with it or kill it with fire. Literally. Also, bothers me when the wave doesn't continue out over on the edges. So I'm just going to swipe it with a popsicle stick and then help it to disperse with some heat from this little torch.  So unless you guys change band wagons, it's gonna stay in the areas where it's a little bit too evident. I'm just using this popsicle stick to kind of stipple out the hard line. And this stippling kind of looks like cells anyways. So it'll help it to blend easier than if I just went and you can quote me on that. I think I love it. What do you guys think for kills it? I'm curious as to how you kill it. So if I were to kill it, I would just take my heat gun and push it. Because with heat, it'll make things start to mix together. And hopefully blend out. For example, as well, this that's coming around right here. Looks very, very, very out of place.  That's very similar to how I would kill this, I would just push it around to mix the white into I guess I can just go ahead and show you me.  There we go. Cool, cool, tight, tight, tight. Put a flash on it. Effectively, I'm just using the heat to erase it. That is out of focus. The sand on those islands is much wider. On the next one, I'll do a white sand beach weather. Well, thanks you guys. Thank you. Thank you. So let me get rid of these glutties. Apparently my hands started sweating because that was not the easiest thing to do. And we'll give you guys a flyover. So at this point, you'll be able to see the stippling that we did under that modeling paste. I didn't put it everywhere. I just put it in a few areas. Looks kind of like clouds almost. Maybe next time I would just kind of give it a dry brush look instead of a stipple. Alright, back to the cells. Thanks you guys. Do you think I need to add more left side? What's up with the sand? What's up? Yeah, that would be a layer one of this piece. I think we're gonna add another wave as well. Right here. Sue, Joe, I believe in you. Don't get nervous.  Thanks you guys. Okay. So you think I need more white to go over the edge over here? Okay, okay, okay. We want sand in a salt shaker. I am very confused. Do one with the resin. Exactly. I forgot I turned my heat down. Okay. I turned it way down. We have waited a little too long for doing that. That is okay. Nothing that can't be solved on the second layer. So anyways, you guys, I hope you enjoyed this video. I always enjoy painting with you. Hopefully I will see you guys tomorrow. For another live video, it will probably be the second wave on this ocean. So yeah, thank you for watching. Please subscribe, hit the bell so you get notifications and you kind of want another. You never know what someone's going through. So you don't have to. What? Which things?  Hi Karen. The coral and sand dunes in Utah. I don't know if I have. Send me a picture. I'd love to see you. Anyways, y'all have an awesome day. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye.

Good evening family and friends. Tonight what we have in our church is family night and we usually share a scripture and a spiritual message. Tonight I wanted to talk a little bit about this book, The Book of Mormon, another testament of Jesus Christ. This book, like the Bible, like it says, other testament of Jesus Christ, testifies of our Savior, Jesus Christ. There's a prophet in this book. His name was Nephi. It's in the second book, 2 Nephi 2526, where he testifies of our Savior. This is what he has to say. And we talk of Christ, we rejoice in Christ, we preach of Christ, we prophesy of Christ, and we write according to our prophecies that our children may know to what source they may look for remission of their sins. I love my Savior, Jesus Christ. He took upon him my sins and the sins of the world. I would like other people to know how this book has brought me to my Savior, like the Bible has. If any of you out there, my friends, neighbors that would like a copy of this book, just send me a direct message with your address and I'll send you a free copy of this book of Mormon. I love this book just like the Bible and it's brought me peace to me and my family. Have a good night.


Hello, my name is Matthew Bruzezi. I'm a senior Chinese language analyst with Flupath Labs. We're a government contractor servicing a variety of contracts across the USG, including providing linguistic and analytical support to the China Aerospace Studies Institute at National Defense University here in DC. And we've also partnered with Peter Singer and Defense One to write an ongoing series of articles on the topic of China, including on Chinese tech advances and military issues. And I've been asked to speak briefly today about some of the insights we've gained from this partnership, as well as more generally as open source researchers of China's defense space. And one of the biggest takeaways for me in recent years has been that there is still a major disconnect, whether you're speaking about the US government, the military, the research community, etc. between interest in China, which is rapidly spiking and the resources available to meet that growing demand. There just aren't enough people or organizations with the requisite skill to read what the PRC government or military or scientific research community is actually saying in their own words and translate that to a wider audience. And this problem is only set to grow in the coming years as interest in China as an adversary grows. And this is the issue which we at BluePath Labs in our workbook with Peter Singer and Defense One and elsewhere are trying to contribute to solving to try to shine some light on what the PRC security apparatus is actually saying in their own words. And interestingly, you know, the Chinese government, the military, etc. are well aware of the fact that the US and its allies have this problem. In a way, they have oftentimes considered their language to be the first level of encryption, largely shielding what they say, even in the public forum that is the internet from foreign eyes. And the truth is, they're not entirely wrong in this assumption. The majority, I would even say the vast majority of content out there goes on red. And it's amazing what you can actually find once you start looking, you know, they will sometimes say something entirely different or at least leave out relevant information in the English translation of the same document. And I'll just give one small example from some of my past research. Here's how one company which makes microwave components describes itself in Chinese versus in English. In Chinese, they clearly state more than once that they make components for the military market. And you can see here the Chinese character for military highlighted. But in their English language description for a foreign audience, any mention of military use of its products is conspicuously absent. And this company probably uses American components. I know that their parent company, which also makes military components, certainly does. And has so far managed to avoid being added to any US government export control list. So you can see why they would leave that little detail out. And to give a second example, in recent years, researchers of China's nuclear weapons have expressed concern that the PLA is intermingling its nuclear and conventional ballistic missile forces. In particular, one of its ballistic missiles, the DF-26, which you see here, it's capable of firing both nuclear and conventional warheads with obvious implications for deterrence. If you can't tell which missiles are conventional or nuclear, it could easily lead to inadvertent escalation in the heat of a conflict. But the great unknown here was to what extent the PLA was actually commingling these two missions. Perhaps, for example, they at least had geographically distinct nuclear and conventional DF-26 units. However, we were able to prove that they were, in fact, intermingling these two missions and that, in at least one case, the conventional nuclear missions were not geographically distinct or at all easy to discern, which is deeply concerning. And we did this by uncovering an article from 2017 on China's official state news site, which plainly stated that they are, in fact, commingling nuclear and conventional missions, and even described how DF-26 personnel trained for both nuclear and conventional missions. And this article, with important information about China's nuclear strategy, it was just sitting there online since 2017, but no one had yet read and translated it. And just as a postscript, CCTV ended up deleting this article after our piece came out. And here's another more recent example from our work with Defense One. In 2021, a Chinese national named Chin Xu Ren was sentenced to prison time by the US Justice Department for purchasing underwater warfare research equipment and illegally exporting it to China. In our article for Defense One titled How China Steals US Tech to Catch Up in Underwater Warfare, we were able to dig further into Chin's case uncovering the lab he was likely working for in China and even identifying his likely co-conspirator at the lab. We found that this lab, dedicated to submarine and torpedo technology, actually listed out its major equipment on its website, including equipment from the US that had clearly been illegally acquired. They even boasted on their website about their use of a US-made advanced autonomous underwater vehicle that Chin had allegedly tried and failed to illegally export, indicating that they had somehow gotten their hands on it by other means. The ease with which this information was available just openly listed on the lab's website really demonstrates the kind of information you can find, what's out there in the open, waiting to be discovered when you are both reasonably curious and able to crack that first level of encryption. Beyond uncovering actual wrongdoing, or at least things they don't want us to know, we frequently come across stories that are interesting and relevant, but just for whatever reason are not widely covered in English language media. So for example, in June of this year, my colleague wrote a story about how researchers at the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently made a breakthrough toward creating a particle beam cannon as part of a new advanced type of nuclear power, which would allow for the recycling of spent nuclear fuel, and showing that China is determined to be at the forefront of nuclear power research, just as nuclear power is stagnating in much of the West. Despite the importance of this breakthrough, the story was not widely covered in English language sources. In fact, I'm not sure if it was covered at all. So those are the kinds of things we come across and try to uncover for our readers. And I'll just leave you with that. There is a veritable ocean of fascinating open source material out there just waiting to be read. And now we just need people who are able to read it.


So today I'm going to check on my soldier, especially Stafford. He's been on quarantine for the last two weeks, and I'm not too worried about how he's doing. He's a pretty squirt away guy, but I'm going to go ahead and check on him anyways. Give him a little courtesy call. Why is this door open? I can't believe it's really you! Hey, keep your distance. Remember, a six-feet roll.  Oh, Roger. Hey, go ahead and take a seat. I can't believe you're here. Yeah, it's me. Are you okay? What happened? I don't remember. I've just been in here for so long. For months. It's been literally two weeks. Oh, man. Here, calm down. Take a sip of the water. No water, Sergeant. I've got my milk. What is this for? It's for the public affairs guys. This is just a video. What am I supposed to say? What did you tell me to say? Talk about your experiences while you're in quarantine. Why is it blinking? Why is it blinking at me? Why is it blinking at me? Why is it still blinking at me? All right. Get some rest. We'll talk tomorrow. Just take care of yourself. And we should be fine. Thank you, Sergeant. Well, that was pretty unexpected. One thing to take away from this, if you have soldiers in quarantine, make sure you're checking up on them. And keep in mind the CDC's guidance of the six feet rule, as well as wear proper face masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19.


Let's talk about green screen. So over on my YouTube channel, I often get asked the question about my background and how I've got the lighting and studio setup and everything like that. Well, the truth of the matter is it's all fake. It's not even a real picture. It is a CGI computer generated image with totally fake lighting and objects in the picture. But what I've done is I've taken some steps with my green screen setup to try and make things look a little bit more realistic and improve on the green screen effect. And so that is the point of this series of five videos. It's my five tips for getting better results from your green screen. And this is tip number one, the first one. And it's one that a lot of people stumble on even though it's the easiest one to get right. Make sure you've got your green screen pulled nice and tight and free from creases and wrinkles. If you've got a nice flat surface to work with, then it will make it a lot easier for your software to key it out. Stay tuned for the next four tips. I'll see you again soon.


Okay, so it is Wednesday 17th of February, it's the latest masterclass of which for those who've never joined one of these sessions before, we get people from industry, from all different kind of areas in markets, different levels of kind of expertise and experience and happy to have Merritt Black with us from the States. Hey Merritt. Hey man, happy to be here. Cool, so I think with all of these conversations the way I normally kick it off is, I know there will be few people who will be very familiar with you having seen you when you were at S&B Capital, but perhaps you could just get us up to speed your background and what you're doing now with your new kind of venture that you've just launched. Sure, you know I grew up in a small town in Alabama, for those of you across the pond, that's like if you've ever seen the movie Forrest Gump, that's where I'm from. You know I grew up, my parents had nothing to do with finance, nothing to do with investments, nothing like that. I grew up hunting and fishing and just spending times out in the woods and stuff like that, but really, you know, fell in love with markets, which I'm sure we'll talk about and whatnot, but I started at a really young age. You know, my teacher, when I was 11 years old, brought the newspaper into the class and introduced us to the stock market and we wrote it up on the chalkboard. Some of you younger people may not know what a chalkboard is, but we wrote it up on the board and started following stocks, you know, we got to pick some and whatnot, and I thought man, this is the greatest game on earth. This is like, it was my first introduction to something that was like, you know, really worldwide and global that the same people were following and keeping track of, and it was just so interesting as a kid to me, and again, it was kind of like a game, and so at that age, I started, you know, I made my parents drive me to the bookstore and started reading books on trading and investments, and I think I got very lucky that I selected some of the books that I did just purely based on what the cover looked like, obviously, but, you know, I didn't go down certain paths that I think were beneficial to me as a trader, you know, perhaps as not an investor and whatnot. So, you know, fast forward that through college, you know, I've constantly got my laptop in front of me in class and I'm paying more attention to, you know, I'm in Cal-based physics or biology and I'm sitting there trading, right, and then I don't know if any of you saw the movie, The Pursuit of Happiness with Will Smith. I saw that movie and it just struck something within me. I changed my major the next day. I went and put a tie on the only tie I had. I walked across the street from my apartment and I walked into an RIA's office. I didn't know what an RIA was at the time, and I said, look, can I shadow you? Can you give me an internship? Can we do anything? And the guy sat down with me like three times a week after he would finish his work for the day and just tutored me and taught me about his business and things like that. So, you know, my sister's an investment banker, so from there kind of leveraged into a pretty posh internship with her. From there, I got into Forex because I was on an FX desk during that internship. From there, I got into Futures, fell in love with crude oil, you know, started trading other people's money, leveraged that into a gig at SMB as an equities trader, which I didn't do so well at quite frankly. My last four months or so as an equities trader at SMB, I was break even and I had lost some money before that. So, I didn't do very well as an equities trader and I was trying to, essentially trying to fit a square peg in a wooden hole, I think, with that. And I talked to the partners there and I was like, look, Futures, like that's where I've had success. It's more specialized than just flying all over the place, chasing GameStop or whatever is hot, you know what I mean? Yeah. And so, for me and the methodologies that I've been developing and whatnot, it was a better fit and that's something I think, you know, we might get into who knows, but niche I think is something that's very, very important to everyone or should be important to everyone, I think, in terms of finding your place in all this and aligning with your own strengths and weaknesses as well and being honest about those. So, anyways, several years at SMB ended up heading up a Futures desk for them. And now, as well, as of last year, left started my own desk, Apteros, and just building a huge community, people who speak the same language and what do I mean by that? Like, I could say, hey, I'm the guru, okay, let's start a trading chat room. Those suck, okay, for the most part. It's only, I think, when people who have a common goal, have a common timeframe, perhaps in ways, have a common framework for viewing markets, in our case especially, where they can say, hey, I'm seeing this and it means something to the other person who's hearing that. And so, we have a community that's based around the methodology that I teach, which doesn't mean that everyone's a cookie-cutter version, you know, trader of me. It just means that we speak the same language and we can develop our own sub-niche, if you will, within that space. So, that's really what I'm doing now. We have training programs and we have a prop desk where I fund traders and whatnot, and we have a desk. So, we're loving it, having a great time. Yeah, yeah, I mean, game on to you for just doing your own thing now. And, you know, we wish you earlier the greatest success with it. I know that you're a quality guy in terms of personally and your content. So, I'm sure it will be a success. I have no doubt.  So, was that when you were a kid, going all the way back there in terms of your core makeup, is it that that drives a lot of it? Is it your competitiveness? Is it the fact that, I mean, in terms of looking at what trading is, is it finding a solution to a problem? Is it trying to identify something in that regard? So, what's the angle that kind of motivates, even at that young age that really hit? That's such a beautiful way of asking that question because, you know, I've been around the circuit. I've done some webinars, I've done some panel discussions, I've done things and people ask that, but never in such a, I think, poignant way as you just asked. So, anyways, that's awesome. It's really, I think for me at the time, as it is now, it's more so almost like someone who is mechanically inclined. So, you know, these like tinkers, right? They want to take stuff apart, they want to dissect things, they want to understand the internal mechanisms and workings. I really think that sums up how I first got into markets and how on a daily basis, as things evolve and as we adapt and markets change and technology changes and, you know, all these kind of stuff. For me, I think it's a constant exploratory understanding process of really finding little nuggets within the randomness and learning little hidden gems about the way things work and how to use that, bringing it into society and for the benefit, monetarily and just gaining, I don't know why I'm struggling for this word here, but a sense of fulfillment from that whole process is what I think it's all about for me. It's not competitive. I am, yeah, I was about to say I'm kind of competitive, but then I would ask my like siblings and whatnot. I'm definitely competitive, but I really don't feel like that's my main driver. I really love working, like I think about the world I've structured for myself here with the business I'm running and the people I'm surrounding myself with. Yeah, is there some healthy competitiveness in terms of let's try and really perform and oh, this person's doing really, really well. I want to be able to do that as well, sure, but I'm much more of a team player than, you know, really wanting to be a standout or something. Yeah, no, definitely with that team player analogy, I've always been, from my younger days when I used to play a lot of sport, there was always like a secret that I had, which I wasn't trying to reinvent the wheel. I was trying to look at other people, find a uniqueness that they had, a particular skill and not try to imitate it, but perhaps see how it would fit with what I naturally had as a skill set and then find what worked for me, but it was kind of like doing a lot of observation of just what's going on and then, like you said, breaking it down and looking at it. Yep, for sure. One of my favorite phrases from Bella and the guys at SMB and whatnot is first be unoriginal, right? I think that's very important. I was also in sport, right? I played a lot of tennis. I used to get tennis magazine and there would be like a centerfold in the middle sometimes where you, you know, you know what that is in a magazine, right? Yeah, I don't know if it's the same terms in London. So, you pull out the centerfold and it would be all this at the time, high tech, slow motion photography of a frame by frame of someone like Mark Philippusis or Pete Sampras or Pat Raft or these people who had good serves, frame by frame of them serving a tennis ball. And I would take that to the tennis court with me. I would set up a tripod with a camcorder and I would record myself trying to mimic all those and go home and study film and whatnot. And I would do that as a kid and, you know, get my parents to drop me off on a Saturday morning and I'd spend, you know, so many hours doing that, come home and study film. I'm still doing the same thing today. It's just in the world of financial markets, right? And trading. It's the same work. It's the same. Let's look at what's working here. Let's study it. Let's see what's worked in the past, for example. Let's see what's not working. And let's go see how we can study that with what we're doing and what kind of applied changes and tweaks and improve. So that kind of philosophy of continuous improvement. I mean, from when you started then, in terms of your, I guess, respect and attitude for markets, I think when you come in, I've met very few people who have been able to just from getting to that point, I guess, of competence, of not letting that manifest into something that they've not quite yet got to the skill level of perhaps believing that they're at. I mean, in terms of the challenges that you've had early on, was it how, what was that initial phase in your career in regard to trading? Did you take to it quite naturally, quite quickly? Or did you have to really work at it? Or what was the process for you individually? I've said this before. I always hate saying it, but I feel like it is a truth about me and kind of part of my makeup. So I say it anyways. I'm pretty good at most things I attempt. I just am. You want to create a game where we flip a coin into the corner of a room and see who can get closer? I'm probably going to be pretty good at it. I need to go to a country and start speaking the language. I have several good traits about learning things and being able to quickly apply them. Trading is not one of those things. In fact, my whole life of being good at things was entirely against me in terms of how I had been trained to be successful. Just press harder, just try harder. My goodness. In many regards to trading, that's not going to work. In terms of the work ethic outside of trading, it will work, right? That studying film and things like that, but absolutely not. In fact, I have one course that I have with Appteros and it starts out number one, module one on what we call mental framework. And I teach this concept around we all begin trading as an NHT, a natural human trader. And that's a very, very bad place to be. Naturally, don't feel bad about it. It's the way we're wired with society. It's the way egotistical, naturally gifted people like me are totally screwed, successful attorneys, lawyers, whatever come in and they are screwed. We are naturally terrible as traders. Even if you don't have a big ego, there are so many things around just look at studies around people not being able to really comprehend probabilistic type expectancy of things and make good decisions around that. And then you add pressure and then complexes around being wrong and the risk of losing money. All those things are just entirely stacked against who 99.9% of us naturally are. And so no trading was not easy for me when I picked it up. And I've yet to meet someone who I genuinely feel that it was just easy to either get good training or you spend more time on the school of heart knocks to figure this stuff out. So looking at the last 12 months has provided a bit of a unique situation I guess, the global pandemic. Not only that, you've shifted from being, I know you've been back where you are now for a while, but going from New York, going from a trading floor to now I can see you're at home. And we spoke just before we came online and you've got a growing family and there's commitments now with the business. So how is that, how has it changed for you? How has it evolved if you like over the last 12 months? And how has it been, I guess breaking that question up, first of all, going from a trading floor environment to an online environment. Have you seen any difference in performance for yourself and your team? I guess start with that one. Okay, for me, I was kind of in the same environment, even on the desk at S&B. I was in an office a lot of times, you know, when I was building out that the futures desk that I ran at S&B was all remote already. I was ahead of the pandemic, baby. We were already like gearing up and planning. It was you, wasn't it? So, did I have all the other benefits of like grabbing a beer with equities traders and whatnot, but I was a bit isolated. I was a bit on my own there in terms of building out the futures desk. Bello and Steve are not experts in futures, you know, we would have conversations around understanding a lot of the basic mechanics of those markets and things like that. So they're equities pros. They really are, not futures. So, you know, I had some isolated stuff there. I was kind of running it, you know, from my office there.  Hey, are you looking at this? We were already on Discord and Zoom and doing all those things. So it has been much different for me. And then the just a general market environment. Oh, yeah. There's not one answer to that for me. When it first hit in March, I kind of, it took me a second to get my feet underneath me. I feel like I didn't adapt to the shifts quick enough. I tried to kind of gunsling it a little bit and I needed to kind of tone it down and get back to my roots.  It's crazy. Okay. Like huge type numbers. And then I did that for months and months and people were like, well, you know, I wish things were crazy again, but really the S&P was still having like 70, 80 handle range days. I mean, it was just, I've been quoted multiple times as saying a lot of those months there last year were like shooting fish in a barrel. The moves were so clean intraday, right? When I mean clean, like if you're trading momentum, you're looking for the pullback and it starts to turn.  It just turns and it just goes, right? That is easy trading environment. If you had the skill sets to do that. So that went on for several, several months and then launched Appteros and then started the desk. And now I've got all this transparency of people looking over my shoulder seeing every execution that I'm making because that's how I want the desk to be.  Now this is my shop and whatnot.  And so I went into a drawdown and it took me about two months to come out of now. Granted, I drastically reduced my size. I just again got back to basics and, you know, coming into this year and whatnot, I'm doing, doing very, very well again. But so it's, look, even for someone like me with the experience that I have and the position I am in running my own desk and whatnot, you know, training traders, mentoring people, all these things, people tend to kind of be like, Oh, well, he's like bulletproof. He's got it figured out. He's a CPT, blah, blah, blah.  Like I have feelings and I mess up and I let my ego get in the way and I make mistakes and I have drawdowns just like every other trader. And it's, I just love to talk about that because I think people think that making the turn, becoming consistently profitable, it's like a light bulb thing goes off and you're just easy sailing from there and it's not. Trading is tough and markets evolve and it's, it's hard. So do you think that self-awareness ability has got better as your career has gone on? Not naturally, but by focused effort and attention towards it. Yes, it has. I think it's a, and we talk about that in, in, in what I teach in that mental framework, I, you know, self-awareness is absolutely critical. You have to be able to, I kind of draw this diagram to where you start up here with like an impulse, right? Just an idea. It could be a good idea. It could be a bad idea. It's a thought you have. It's an action you're thinking of taking, right? Get into a trade, exit a trade, scratch a trade, move a stop to break even, whatever. It's an idea. Typically people just go straight to the action over here, right? Almost mindlessly out of habits, you know, do HIG. You can read all these books around all those, those type of habits and cues and things like that. It's very good. You have to insert conscious thought, right? And that takes effort. That takes practice. That takes sincere energy and attitude and whatnot to, to, to get there. We'll, I teach people to use loop timers. Have something that dings at you, whatever periodicity you need every five minutes, every 15 minutes, just a simple ding.  And if someone would have pulled out in front of you, you would have slammed on the brakes, right? But you lose that conscious control because your, your, our bodies are amazing. Our minds are amazing. We can do stuff out of habit and people tend to, especially a little, a little bit of experienced traders, they tend to just work out of habit and whatnot and kind of run on autopilot mode, insert conscious thought, consider, here's what I'm wanting to do and then run that through a process, run that through your methodology and your checklist, your process for determining, is that a good decision? Is that a decision that aligns me with what I'm trying to accomplish and my systems or is it not and then make the appropriate action? But if there's no self-awareness there, you go straight from point A to point D with no, no breaks in between. So it's, it's huge. So with that, and as you've explained the period, the kind of the up and down period of 2020, I know this is different for every trader, but it'd be, I think you need to see what, how you handle it is you are a human, as you say, and you have a partner and a family. How much, because this is interesting for the community is how much of that do you share with other people? Cause I've met traders over the years where they're quite explicit. I'd never talked to their partner about it because of maybe they don't want to share the stress because it's talking about money and it's a different type of association that normal people have with it because you're talking about numbers that people can't really compute in the normal sense. And so how do you kind of handle that in your So as traders, sorry, that's a, that's an amazing question. As traders, we get desensitized to these numbers, right? My wife is not desensitized to those numbers. We kind of have a deal based on some of these ups and downs and what I need, right? To not feel pressure from her or for her feel stress for me or things like that. We kind of have a deal where at the end of the month is really where we kind of say, Hey, you know, how was, how was your trading this month? Those kind of things. And on a day to day basis, like we might talk about it if I've really had a let down day. If I feel bad about my trading day, it's because of me. It's not because I executed my process and I lost money that day. I could care less about those days. They're gonna happen. They always happen. They happen once or twice a week for me, whatever, okay? It's part of it. But when I have a bad let down day and I'm a bit emotionally drained or hurt or whatever, we, you know, it might come up and she might sense it. She might ask about it, whatever. But in general, I tend to just kind of compartmentalize it. And that's that. And I don't bother her with, Hey, I made this much money today. Let's go crazy. Hey, I lost this much money. Let you know, I try and keep more almost stability for both of us.  So especially working from home, she could come up to my office and be like, Hey, what's the PNL at? She's like, Hey, Mary, check out my GameStop position. Exactly. So that's kind of our deal on it. We think that a monthly basis is a good periodicity, if you will, to say, Hey, how's things going? Yeah. And you know, and I asked that question, you know, for the people listening, I'm not trying to convey that there's a formula or yeah, that's what works for us. And something may be very different for others. Yeah, there's many complexities to it as a relationship. It's always interesting to see how different people approach it, because everyone's relationship management, you know, it's kind of like, you know, happy wife, happy life mentality. And that has implications on your mental and physical well-being, which in a performance related activity is going to have an impact. So no, I appreciate your openness.  And was there something specific in your career that helped you make a big leap in regards to process, technique, psychology, whatever that might have been, I guess was there? I guess we are going to be here for four hours. This will be the last one. I still tend to my natural tendency. I've gotten a lot better at it.  That's a baseball analogy to stop trading or whatever. But my natural tendency is to, you know, fight or flight to fight. Okay, so when things start not going well in a sense, I still struggle with wanting to be more active and control more and do more. And typically the right answer for me is to go the other way. It's to take a step back, take a breather, refresh, do less, get back to basics, things like that. So that's something that I, you know, for example, like my most recent drawdown, I think was in a large way attributed to that. I did have the pressures of the new business and things like that and whatnot. But in general, you know, I was pressing and trying too hard. So that's one thing that is been ongoing for me and that I continually have to deal with. I guess I could dovetail that into one of the biggest leaps. One of the absolute biggest leaps, and this is not going to be the sexy part of trading or anything like that. But it's really journaling because we are kind of talking about the mental game here a good bit. And the mental game is important in a performance activity. So journaling is something that is when I actually committed to doing it, I began to become more self-aware because I am observing myself from a neutral perspective. I'm jotting down my thoughts. I'm reviewing that at the end of the day and saying, oh, I was literally thinking this at this time stamp in the day. I was literally wanting to do this at this point on the chart. That's interesting, right? You start to learn about yourself. Otherwise, believe it or not, whether you want to get some younger people here, you will, this sounds harsh, you will lie to yourself. Okay, what do I mean by that? We as natural human traders want to preserve self. We want to feel better about ourselves, right? And so it's very difficult to truly look inwardly objectively. It's a very difficult endeavor to do. And so if you're telling me, let's use a football, American or soccer, whatever you want to use, doesn't matter, okay? You have a game or a match and you think there's some guys filming it for the team? Yes, they're filming it, right? So that they can all meet up later, maybe based on position or whatever, and they meet with the coaches and they watch film. Journaling is your film. Otherwise, imagine if those professional football players, they all got together afterwards and they were like, hey, you remember the play where, you know, Ronaldo had it here and then, you know, he did this dribble thing and pass it or whatever. And you know, you should have been here there, you know, like, it was night, it's 90 minutes, right? And again, so it was a long time and it's easy to lose track of what I was thinking here or whatever. And as traders, the entire game that's going on is here. The whole session that you're trading, the only thing that's really going on, yes, you have charts in front of you, you have a news feed, whatever, but it's only the processing of that. That's the only thing that's going on. So the only film, the only objective account of what happened and when is if you take the time to notate that. And so journaling will prevent you from just thinking back on the day and be like, oh, I knew I should have gotten long there. Did you really? Or was that some fleeting thought? You also thought you should have gotten long 30 other times throughout the day and you didn't act on those, but those didn't work. So you're not going to point that one out, but you knew that you should have gotten long from the low of day, didn't you? Don't lie to yourself, no matter how that might happen. Be objective and accountable to what you can actually see at the hard right edge. Note what opportunities are present, what opportunities you might be stalking, what mistakes you just made, why you made certain decisions. Do all of those things and have that game film, if you will, to be able to review. You're making me feel quite pumped up now. Like I need to go out and run around the bloke or something and film myself doing it at the same time, but there's a fantastic answer and and some great advice, I guess, about anyone coming in new to markets about continuous development. I think it's something to take away from this discussion is the fact that you're very honest. Well, if you can hear my daughter in the background, she's fine. She's with her mother if you hear any shouting, but the idea that you've never, I always say this to the guys I talk to is that you're never, you're never going to have complete understanding or control. You just can control it for a very finite period of time when you can master it. It's a muscle. Yes, it's a muscle you can flex and flex a little longer and absolutely. And what's also really important is to make sure that the beliefs you have about what you're trying to do, what trading is, the amount of how right can you be on a consistent basis, all these kinds of things. If you don't align those beliefs with what you're trying to do, well, now you're setting up this dissonance and whatnot and you feel you're trying to psych yourself out and tell yourself to be more disciplined and do this and do that. You shouldn't have done this and all these things, but really you're out of line with reality and that happens to people in relationships that happens everywhere. So it's very important to also do that in your trading. If you don't have a methodology with EDGE, it doesn't matter what your psychology is. It doesn't matter. And I think that's a good way to end it. So, Merritt, always a pleasure. Yeah, man, always. Yeah, and thank you for giving up some time and I wish you all the best with the little one coming in the summer. Thanks, man. Thank you. And that is actually the baby and the business. So, but yeah, I'm sure we'll touch base before, but I really appreciate you taking the time out. Happy to, man. Good to talk to you.


Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome to one of the stocks with show plays of the day here. This is Finnell, F-I-N-L, a nice bearish gap here in the Finnell. It worked, and it didn't look like it was going to work at one point because it was taken forever and ever and ever and ever and ever, and then it went. Sometimes you have to be patient. It's really something that I don't like about trading, but sometimes you have to do it. So here's the five-minute stock open rally held 27, which was good. This far it looks really, really, really, really good. If you did this, stock was big. Then it rallied up, and it wasn't looking so great, and then it fixed itself pretty quickly. That I liked. That I liked. Here's the resistance. Broke. Called a trade in this in here. Rally called a trade in this in here. Dropped. Drop, drop, drop, and went down to basically 25 bucks or more than 14 pennies, and it's trying to get down again. This will make another new loan today. I don't know if anyone is still in this at all, but if this breaks 25, this could go. This could go. I mean, this stock normally moves about the extension that it has on the day, which is two, two and a half, $3 on a good solid day, which on a bearish gap day, it should run. The rally was big. This, this tail looks crappy, but that's what you see here on this 15 minute. See that? That's what this is over here, and that's just the way of the look. But finally, after about 26, it was good to go and it worked. So nice bearish gap on the fennel and actually today, everything worked. It was one of those days where you could have done everything. Typically, I like to focus on one thing in the morning, but really everything worked today. And this was nice and it's still working here and it's following through into the next major reversal time, which is three o'clock. I don't see any reason why this won't break 25 now. And so if you're still in some of this, hold it down to the break of 25 into three o'clock if you can. Strange that this will be going this late in the Friday, but the selling is in now. This has set itself for the day. It will close looking similar to this or larger on the day. It will close with the top and tail and it closed with a red body and it's completely 100% on its own. This is nothing to do with the market today. The stock broke today and worked well and just took a long time to get going. Usually I like to trade and be done quickly, quickly, quickly, but this thing just took a long, long, long, long, long time. But it worked. Sometimes you have to hold it, stay with it, have the conviction that's why your risk has to be in accordance with what you set it to be. If you risk too much, you'll give up on it too soon and it may not be doing anything wrong then go on to work. So that's why you have to risk what you are okay with risking in what you take in the trade. You have to take the risk and actually put the stop in and let it come right out unless you have to go somewhere or be somewhere or can't sit and watch your trade. I mean, I don't like to leave the house when I'm in a trade. I just don't do that. I think I did it like once in the last year, but for the most part, you really got to watch what's going on. So this was a nice fennel. If it breaks 25 and hits anywhere in the 24th, this thing could rock and roll in the next 45 minutes. This is a nice look to it. Follow-through may even come into this on Monday. We'll have to watch for a continuation gap. It's going to depend really on where it goes today and where it closes though, to be honest with you, but seeing some nice follow-through and things lately, really good follow-through and things lately. In fact, I'm going to talk about that. I think in the Stock Swish Show live trading room on Monday when I've gone back and looked at some of the things we did even two weeks ago. The follow-through, they were great swing trades. So, you know, there's some nice potential in this fennel to follow through today. This is one of the Stock Swish Show calls today. This was one of the top rated gaps today. It's going to break a new low here into 215. You can follow it through and just follow it into the next major reversal time is my suggestion. If anyone is still in this here in this trade. It did end up having a big stop. It got tighter and tighter as each setup hit. And then now this has paid the risk to war. And it even had places to add something was aggressive today to do ads in this. But if you did it, whether you lowered the stop where the next setup was or did the add either way, this is a good risk to word it now. It has, it has paid. This is Melissa with the Stockswish.com. If you're interested in the next golden gap passes this weekend, the train for the fall earning season Saturday and Sunday, the 27th to 28th deadline. Stay at five o'clock though. If you want to sign up, email me and Melissa at the stockswish.com. Have a great day everybody.


Tom here from Large Systems and this is the Bly KVM. Full disclosure up front, this was sent to me for review and my opinions are my own. They do not get any editorial or any commentary they can put on this. They're watching a video the same time as you and this review. That being said, I do like it. I want to disclose the price up front of $159 now here in late December, 2023, which I think is very reasonable for an IPKVM but you may find it unreasonable so I wanted to put that at the beginning of the video so you can decide if you wanna keep watching further. I've been testing this for a little while and I even opened it up, took it apart because this was, I believe, one of the first units they had made, found a couple screws missing in it. No big deal, it didn't affect anything. They shipped me the screws separately. They were in a bag so it actually came with extra screws and I solved that problem but nothing was actually loose because this thing is made of metal and really well built so let's dive into the review. I wanna talk about what comes in the box when you order this and what all you get for $159. We're gonna start with, you get some rack ears, you get the device, you also get these ATX adapter boards, one tall, one short in case you have a half height. Then you get eight screws but for some reason they put 10 in a box for me which I think is because the two were missing. Then you get these ATX cables. Now the ATX cables, I was confused because there's two of them but then I realized this is so you can put them in the case and still use the buttons and lights on the case in addition to having the buttons and the lights here for the ATX adapter boards. It's essentially a pasture. It allows you to control it both from the IPK VM and from the case at the same time. Now if we take a look at the back of the device we see there's actually three ways to power it. There is the five volt in USB-C. We have a 12 volt barrel adapter and my preferred way in the way I've been powering it is PoE. So yes it does support PoE and boots up rather fast in under 60 seconds. Then we have our HDMI in and HDMI out. We have a Wi-Fi antenna. We also have an RJ45 adapter that allows us to connect it via a standard network cable to the other system. I like doing this instead of having a weird proprietary cable so you can adjust and make it to the length that works for you. Now let's open up and take a look in the device itself and you can see it's all solid, really well made metal and besides those two screws being a little bit missing and maybe the other ones being a little bit loose I haven't had any issues with it from a build quality standpoint. Matter of fact, being passively cooled means it's completely silent and it really doesn't get too hot at all. I do like the front panel display on it. It's easy to read and gives me the information I want which is really the IP address of the device when it boots up. So I don't have to find it on my network. I can just look at it a glance and understand what IP address it got so I can log into it. Now while the Blykey VM displays text perfectly fine I wanted to plug in something a little bit different. This is a Synology VS600 HD that I'm reviewing but I've tested this with Windows machines and Linux machines as they boot up. It has no problems changing resolutions and the scaling works quite well. You do get a nice on-screen keyboard if you need to press any of the buttons. I also like the fact that they have the ability to send text. So if you have a complicated password and you would like to have that sent here you can just hit submit and it will type that out for you as opposed to trying to type something along and complicate it on the keyboard.  These press the ATX buttons that are connected if you have them in use it actually does not reset the KVM itself. I'll also note that they have a wake on LAN option. This is nice if you have a system that you need to wake up and it's on the same network as this device. Now one interesting feature but it's not very well polished is the ability to load ISOs right into the KVM and then use them to boot. And let me show you how this kind of works. It jumps from select all the way to four because we got to go to connect to host but then you're like how do we change to a different image? Well, you have to hit previous, previous then we can select the image such as Proxmox, XCPNG or I've got a Debian on here and then we can next, next and now that one's attached. This can be a little bit buggy and a little bit fiddly but I think this is really promising to be able to have several images in here and it builds them all as ISO images on Ventoy which is kind of neat that it boots up like a Ventoy instance when it comes up but it won't let you choose all of them at once or at least I haven't figured out how to make it do that. You do have to select each one and when you select these or you do have the ability to upload them the system just overall feels a little buggy with this but it can be updated in software. This is their GitHub page with all of the code that drives this. This is also where you can get more updates but you can update it from the command line as well which we'll log in in just a moment. Now they do have a Wiki page I'll leave a link to as well that has a lot of more detailed information in there. Lots of the little stuff in terms of like the default password which is just admin admin and a video from Jeff that's embedded in here and maybe in the future they'll embed my video here as well. It does capture without a problem all the way up to 4K at 30 Hertz. Once you go over that it just displays bars on the screen if you try to do something that's at a resolution that's not supported but so far all the devices I've tested not had any issues at all. Now SSH is enabled by default username is gonna be Bly KVM and password is Bly KVM and you'll find just RMBM under the hood. App to get update works fine. Of course, Sue do have to get update to update the base OS. They do have instructions on our GitHub how to pull the latest version of the project it ships with it installed. The get process is relatively simple to update it from the command line via SSH. Now besides the kind of quirkiness with the Ventoy ISO upload interface which I'm hoping as I said will improve with time and better software updates. I haven't had any other issues with this. The thing works great. I think it is just a really compelling solution compared to the commercial options out there. The fact that they're able to produce in a whole system on a chip that yes it's less power than Raspberry Pi but it's still enough power to do what it needs to do and run a high res screen and be able to display well all these little mini PCs that I've been testing and everything else. I think this is really a good deal but hey ultimately it's up to you. I'm just offering you some data some experience for me using it. Leave your thoughts and comments down below if this is something you're interested in or you're just prefer motherboards that have IPMI as I do but unfortunately there's a few that don't but either way let me know what you think down below.

The Roy Rogers Radio Show. As folks, it's the Roy Rogers Radio Show for the whole family. Adventures, suspense, mystery, and music. Starring Roy Rogers, King of the Cowboys, and Day 11's Queen of the West, with Pat Brady, the mellow man, and an all-star cast. And now, here to greet you with a song and a story are Roy and Dale. Greetings again to the whole family. Tonight's story is about an old prospector, the kind of a never-sayed diet fellow who always hopes he'll frag it rich somewhere beyond the blue horizon. This old timer's name was Matt Bartow. I first met him a few years ago up in the Mother Load country and gave him a grub steak. Well, about three years went by and I didn't hear from him. Then a month or so ago, I got a letter from old Matt and he asked for another grub steak. This time, so he could make a trip out on the Colorado Plateau to search for uranium. I sent him a check and he sent me an agreement making me a 50% partner in whatever he found. Then a few weeks later, I got another letter from him saying that he'd struck it rich and asked me to meet him in a boom town called Four Corners. So, Dale and Pat and I loaded up a bullet and trigger and two days later, we were in snow-covered mountains just a few miles from Four Corners. How much further, Roy? Oh, it shouldn't be over four or five miles now. Well, boy, I hope so.  There's a sign, Roy. What did it say? Danger, watch out for falling rocks. Watch out for falling rocks? They mean falling snow, don't they? What's that? It sounded like thunder. It can't be thunder, Roy. Why, it's clear as a bell, not a cloud in the sky. Step on it, Pat. Maybe we can get through. You can slow down now, Pat. I think the worst is over. It's completely blocked. Yeah, I see. I guess we'll have to take another road back, Roy, that there's snow and ice that won't melt for days. There isn't any other road, Pat. This one is just a new trail that they built when uranium was discovered up here. You mean we're going to be stuck in Four Corners until this road is cleared? I'm afraid so, Pat. Let's just hope the town has plenty of water and supplies. That looks like the town right over the next hill, Roy. Yeah. Let's find the Sheriff's Office first, Pat, so we can report the avalanche. Then we'll try to locate Matt Barlow. We're able to get the Highway Patrol on the phone, Sheriff? Yes, Roy. I told them about the road. Seems like all their bulldozers are busy over on the main highway. It might be four or five days before they can dig us out. Four or five days? That's terrible. Well, there really isn't too much to worry about, Miss Evans. Charlie Morgan, he owns a general store, told me he's got plenty of water and supplies, so it could be worse. Four or five days? I said I brought my net. I don't know, Pat. You might find Four Corners kind of interesting. It's a boom town, you know. Almost exactly like the ones that sprung up during the Gold Strike in California. You might even want to go out on the plateau and do a little prospecting. You mean there's a road out of town on the other side? No, not really a road, Miss Evans. It's the prospector's trail. You can navigate it with horses and burrows, but not with a car. Besides, it doesn't go any place. Just up the mountain range. And you can't cross that? I see. Well, I think we'd better go over to the hotel and find Matt Barlow. Matt Barlow? That's right. He's a prospector. I understand he made a rich uranium strike here. Do you know him? Matt Barlow? No, I can't say that I do. But then we have dozens of prospectors in and out of here every day. I'm perfectly capable of navigating under my own steam. Simmer down, but a couple hours of sleep will do you a lot of good. What's the trouble, Sam? The usual. Sheriff, McGee here was raising a rumpus at the hotel. Rumpus? Rumpus, he calls it. Now, since when can a man raise his voice in the sounds of his own motherland without the law in tip here? Now, come on, Mr. McGee, you need some sleep. Good, let's hear it tip you. McGee! Oh, he'll be all right. The men here about to all under pressure, Roy. Most of them have come a long way from their home. Some from as far as France. Australia, England. A lot of them have lost every cent they had in the world out there on that plateau. Hunting for that elusive stuff they call uranium. I understand, Sheriff. Well, we'll see you later. Okay, Roy. Oh, and say, you might ask Charlie Morgan about your friend Barlow. Charlie's general store is right next to the hotel. If Barlow's been out on a plateau, Charlie probably sold him supply. Right, Sheriff. Thanks. You ever see so many burrows? Not since I was in Mexico. They're a wonderful little animals' dale. They can pack more waste per pound than anything I know. Now, I guess that's why all the prospectors use them. That's right. Of course, the fact that they're very sure of putting it on narrow mountain trails. Here's the general store. Good afternoon. May I help you? I hope so, ma'am. We're looking for an open... Oh, poor goodness. Say, poor Roger. I recognize any word. Hello. Are you Charlie Morgan? That's right. And you must be Day 11. That's right. Well, now I'm like pleased to meet you. This is my niece, Millie. How do you do? We saw you folks down low down about two years ago. You was in a show. Hey, what you doing up these parts, Roy? We're here to try to locate a friend of mine, named Matt Barlow. Do you know him? No. Hey, I do. Yes, sir. That's Matt all right. Do you happen to know where he's staying? Staying. Matt? Now, Roy, you know Matt. He ain't one to spend money to sleep in a hotel bed. No, sir. He'll most likely be camped out somewhere near town. How long ago did you see him, Mr. Morgan? Well, now, let's see. I think he was in here yesterday. Millie waited on him. Millie? Yes, Uncle Charles. You waited on old Matt Barlow yesterday. Did he say where he was staying? No, but he did say he was going back out Are you sure? Well, yes. He said he was going to be gone at least for a week. Why do you suppose Matt would ask you to meet him in four corners, and they're not wait for you? Don't know, Dale. Well, it sure beats me. Me, too. I think we'd better get a good night's sleep, and tomorrow we'll take a little ride out to the plateau. Here's your room, Dale. Good night, Roy. Turn on the light, Pat. I'll put the paper under the door. Sorry, I missed you. Must get back to claim. Return in about four weeks. Matt, come on, Pat. Downstairs to talk to the clerk. Maybe he saw who delivered this. Well, maybe Matt bothered himself. He couldn't have. Charlie Morgan's least said that Matt left town yesterday. Gentlemen, gentlemen, please get that beast out of here. Mr. McGee, I told you, you can't. You simply can't.  And he's lost. He ain't that right now.  But I insist you cannot leave that animal in this hotel. What's the trouble, clerk? Mr. Rogers, these gentlemen insist upon bringing that better into the hotel. But the poor deer's tired and hungry. I found him fully packed. Now I ask you, Mr. Rogers, into the kindly humane thing to do. Fully packed, huh? You're right, he is. Who does he belong to? Well, the name's right here on this leather strap. Let's see now. Trapper key out. Matt Bartlett. Don't shout in the dark. What makes you think that dog of yours can trace Matt's thing? Now, he's done it before, Sheriff. Go on, bullets.  I still think this is a wild goose chase. Maybe, Sheriff. But you must admit that something very strange is going on. Oh, no, Kevin. Yeah. What's left of it? Can goods get it around? Boy, looks like somebody had a fight around here. It sure does. Okay, bullet, good boy. Look over there, Sheriff. Tracks coming from that clump of bushes. Straight up to this bedroll Isn't that... Yeah, come on. Matt. Matt Bartlett. Matt, the Sheriff. Can you hear me? Matt. He's still alive, boy. Matt. What do you mean, Matt? You mean... Matt. He's dead. Well, at least we know who to look for. Who's his partner, Roy? I am, Sheriff. I'm his partner. I hope you appreciate my position, Roy.  That's not what Matt said at all, Sheriff. He said that his partner shot him. But he didn't have no other partner, except Roy. That's true, isn't it, Roy? Well, yes, as far as I know. Matt was grubbed steak by a lot of people through the years, but... I was his partner on this train. There's no doubt about that. Well, then, you see... You didn't see what a spot I'm in. Sure, Sheriff. As far as I can see, there's only one thing for you to do. What's that? Arrest me for the murder of Matt Barlow. Roy, you didn't kill him. Of course not, but the people in this town think I did. If the sheriff doesn't arrest me, he's liable to have a riot on his hand. Roy is right, Mrs. Evans. Especially since nobody had anything to gain except Roy. Matt filed his claim four days ago. There wouldn't be any reason for anybody else to kill him except Roy. Roy. This is awful. What are you going to do? Do? Me? Well, nothing. Nothing? Well, great jumping, you radium. You mean you're just going to let the sheriff arrest you and... and not try to find the real killer? Well, that's about all I can do, Pat. But I wouldn't worry too much about it. I think the real killer will turn up in a few days. Turn up in a few days? What kind of talk is that? Stop worrying, Dale. I have my word for it. The person who killed Matt Barlow will be exposed within a few days. And this time, we won't have to go looking for him. He'll be looking for us. Oh, hi, Sheriff. Boy, this beats me. Roy Rogers arrested for murder and sleeping like a baby. Did you talk to Dr. Murphy? Did you give him my message? Yeah, I told him. That's why I woke you up. He's not at all sure you've got the right slant. After all, a lot of things could happen. I know, but this is our best and sureest bet. If it fails, I'll try to think of something else. Now, if you don't mind, Sheriff, I think I'll go back to sleep. Okay, Roy. I'll let you know if there's... What's that? Sounds like a crowd. Well, I'll have a look. Not a crowd, Roy. Come on. A what? A leader is McGee. He's carryin' a rope. Yeah, Sam. They're actually Rogers. That's McGee. Okay, let's get him and lock him up. Not me, Sheriff. McGee's drunk. He's got that mob all inside it. You can't handle him that, Sheriff. You better get Rogers out of here right away. Where's your horse, Roy? Right outside. Okay. Right up to the highway station on the platform. Stay there till you hear from me. All right, Sheriff, if you say so. But, personally, I just assume stay here and face him. You do as I say, Roy Rogers. I'm the Sheriff here, and I'm not takin' any chance. All right, be sure to call me if Dr. McGee. I will, I will. Now get out of here fast. Will you turn on like this? Roy's okay. The Sheriff says... That's the way like a guilty criminal. Pat, it just isn't like Roy. It's not like him. Who is that? Sounds like somebody at the window. It's Roy. Well, I don't think so, Dale. Not after we turn up the real murder. Oh, by the way, we think we know who it is now. Uh, you... Boy, Rogers. We'll wait a few seconds before we go in. First of when you're ready. Okay, take it easy, Sam. No gunplay unless you have to. Right, Sheriff. I still can't understand the motive, Roy. It's a very old motive, Sheriff. Jealousy. I don't think he intended to kill Matt. He was simply trying to cut himself in on the strike. You see, he'd grub steak Matt in the past, but Matt never found anything. Then just a few weeks later, he turns up with this rich strike. That's it. Let's go. You just lie there quietly, Pat. Doc Murphy is on his way over. Doc Murphy? I don't need no doctor. I feel fine. We know, Pat. Just don't exert yourself. Well, you were right, Roy. Charlie Margin used to be Matt Barlow's partner, and he was in with him on every prospecting trip Matt made until this last one. That's right, Dale. And, of course, this one was the one that paid off. I feel sorry for Charlie Margin, for the excuse for murder. Was it Charlie Margin who planted the note under your door? That's right. He was trying to throw us off the track and stop us from looking for Matt. He also told his niece to say that Matt would be gone for several weeks. Well, I guess that explains everything. It don't explain nothing. It don't explain why Roy didn't do one single solitary blame thing to find a killer, and it don't explain why you've got me laying here like an infant in a crib waiting for the doctor. Oh, that's perfectly clear now, Pat. You see, Roy wasn't worried about finding the killer, because he knew that sooner or later the killer would come to see Doc Murphy on account of the avalanche. The avalanche? What's the avalanche got to do with it? Well, you see, Pat, it blocked the road and prevented anybody from getting out of town. Doc Murphy's the only physician in these parts, so Charlie Margin had to consult him. What? Was Charlie Margin sick? In a manner of speaking, Pat. What do you mean in a manner of speaking? He was either sick or he wasn't sick. Well, Pat, he was sick, but in a kind of a peculiar way. You see, you remember that bush that Charlie Margin crawled through when he followed Matt Barlow? Yeah. Well, that was poison ivy. Poison ivy, huh? Oh, I see. And you knew that poison ivy breaks out anywhere from two to five days after it... Oh. Uh... I'm sorry, Pat. I tried to warn you not to touch Charlie Margin. Poison ivy! And folks, that's the story of an old prospector and his dream of finding wealth and riches way out on the Colorado Plateau, beyond the blue horizon. Beyond the blue...
