I'm going to begin by presenting my PhD methodology for evaluating visitor perceptions and engagements with British prehistory sites and I'll be presenting this through free case studies. So part of my PhD research involves a large-scale analysis of how prehistory is presented in British museums. To date I visited 75 museums, predominantly in the British Isles, but also further afield in Europe. And when I go and visit these museums I'm taking a note of these display variables you can see listed down the side here. Because it's these variables that affect how visitors engage and relate to the place. For example, the term to describe proof history can affect whether it's seen as something familiar or relatable or if it's seen as something disinteresting and irrelevant. But also looking at the colour scheme that's used, the architecture of the space, the amount of material on display as well as a host of other variables. And it's by recording these display variables at the different museums like this that I can start to see what trends and patterns there are in how prehistory is presented in British museums. So far I've noted some very general trends which I'm going to go over briefly. Firstly, is that the narrative remains very consistent. It's consistent across different types of museums and it's consistent across time. It doesn't matter when the displays are last updated, the narrative stays the same. It's one I'm sure we're all very familiar with in which the paleolithic is represented in terms of first people, the mesolithic under-gatherers, the neolithic first farmers and the Bronze Age, the first use of metals. And it's only really with the INAs that we see more of a general focus on daily life. But how is this prehistory displayed? There seems to be three main focuses for how it's displayed and sometimes a combination of these. Sometimes it's through a focus on landscape, trying to invoke a sense of the prehistoric landscape in the museum space through audio-visual elements and interactives. Or sometimes it's through a focus on people and identity, trying to connect the visitor to the people of the past through the use of illustrations, dioramas and reconstructions. Also, there tends to be, as has been noted for many years, a general misrepresentation of women and we'll be hearing a bit more about that in one of my papers later. There's also a tendency to exoticise the period, to present prehistory as many early ethnographic museums presented non-Western cultures. And there's also a tendency to present prehistory in almost exclusive association with archaeology to always be focusing on the archaeological process. And support my wide-scale analysis, I'm also undertaking in-depth visitor data collection to find out what visitors themselves actually think of prehistory and prehistory of slaves. So part of that methodology is using tracking surveys. This is an example of one that I completed at the British Museum. And these tracking surveys produce a wealth of quantitative data to show you exactly how people are interacting with the space. On the tracking map, I can record the route of the visitor. I can record where they're stopping, what they're looking at and how long they stop for. But I can also record how they're engaging with the displays. If they're taking pictures of certain objects, if they're calling someone over to look at something or if they are perhaps just not actively engaging and just looking at their mobile phone. Which is sometimes the case. Although quite positively, not that often. And so far I've completed 402 of these tracking surveys across six locations. And after I've completed several tracking surveys in the same location I can work out the average length of visit in that particular space. I can work out the average length of time that's spent at each case, at each text panel and the frequency with which they're visited. And to support my tracking data, I'm also undertaking in-depth visitor data collection through questionnaire data collection. And as you can see from my questionnaires, I've got quite open-ended questions so as not to restrict the response of the visitor. This gives me quite a lot of qualitative data that I can then start to pick up on key themes that are coming across. And here I get an opportunity to explicitly ask the visitor what they think of prehistory, what they think of the displays and whether the displays are reinforcing or challenging their preconceptions. So far I've collected 480 of these questionnaires across six locations. And today I'll be presenting on three of these locations very briefly. I'll be showing you some of my visitor data from the British Museum Stonehenge Visitor Centre and North Leithshire Museum. And these all represent a very different type of museum. We have here a national museum, a site-based museum and a regional museum. And from all three of these I've collected data from 364 visitors. So for those of you who are unfamiliar with the displays in these museums these are some images of the prehistory displays in the British Museum and a bit of a description based upon those display variables I introduced at the beginning. So the British Museum presents prehistory from the Paleolithic through to the Iron Age. There's a preference for later prehistory with early prehistory, the Paleolithic, the Mesolific, and the Melchocase. It's predominantly displayed within two adjoining plumb rooms set out almost like a corridor. And it's set in a chronological framework with a focus on certain national sites on European trends. In general quite a neutral colour scheme and a lot of green in association with the Iron Age. In general there's a focus more on singular artefacts quite spaced apart and in terms of extra interpretation the visitor can purchase an audio guide or sometimes there is a handling desk available just outside. At Stonehenge Visitor Centre the time period focused on is predominantly the Neolithic and the Bronze Age because the visitor centre focuses on the site of Stonehenge. So the entire visitor centre is dedicated to prehistory but it's not presented in a chronological or a thematic framework but through a focus on questions about the site. Likes the British Museum we also have quite a neutral colour scheme quite a predominance of grey and there's a tendency to focus more on single artefacts and single groups of artefacts quite widely spaced apart. In terms of extra interpretation there is a lot of it. Lots of interactives, lots of audio visual elements there's also an audio guide to be purchased and there are staff members walking around to give people further information. At North Lincolnshire Museum the Paleolithic Free to the Iron Age is covered an almost equal covering of each time period and it's presented in a room split into two segments. As you can see from the images it's quite a vibrant display and that each colour is associated with a different time period the Stone Age is blue, the Bronze Age is yellow and the Iron Age is red. It's presented in a chronological framework with a very local focus and in terms of extra interpretation there's a children's activity table and a few tactile elements. And in comparison to the previous two museums there's a lot more material on display a lot closer together. So this is the demographic profile of the questionnaire respondents from the free museums. I managed to get a roughly 50-50 split of men and women that completed my questionnaires and you'll notice that at North Lincolnshire Museum predominantly the respondents were in the over 60 age category mostly British residents mostly local as well. And this demographic profile reflects the general visitor profile for the museum. In contrast to the British Museum at Stonehenge Visitor Centre most of my questionnaire respondents were in the younger age category predominantly 21-30 year olds mostly overseas residents and a mix of British and other European nationalities as well as quite a lot of North Americans and Australians. And this more overseas demographic at the British Museum and Stonehenge Visitor Centre reflects their status as tourist attractions. So what exactly do visitors think of prehistory? Across the free museums in my questionnaire I explicitly ask visitors what does prehistory mean to you? And from the 175 respondents I was able to put their responses into a word file generator where the words come out most frequently in association with prehistory and here you can see history comes up quite prominently and that's because most people define prehistory in relation to history but there's also quite a lot of confusion about the difference between prehistory and history. A lot of respondents say that prehistory and history are the same and also a lot of respondents that are confused about where prehistory begins and where it ends. Also from these responses these are the most frequently mentioned topics. You'll notice that all free case studies there's a general recognition that prehistory is prewriting. At the British Museum there's a sense that prehistory covers a much deeper timescale a lot of respondents mentioning pre-human history and a lot of them expressing a lack of knowledge and unfamiliarity. Also seen at Stonehenge. At North Lincolnshire Museum at Stonehenge you see the most frequently mentioned time period is the Bronze Age. Second to that at North Lincolnshire Museum is the Iron Age whereas at the Stonehenge Visitor Centre second to that is the Stone Age. Also at North Lincolnshire Museum 80% of respondents mention Stonehenge so this site is clearly of very prominent in local knowledge. Also 60% of respondents mention that prehistory is pre-Roman. So how exactly are visitors then engaging with these prehistory displays? Based upon my tracking surveys I was able to produce these heat maps to show the visitor frequency at the free museums. So this for example is from Stonehenge Visitor Centre where you can see the hotter areas the red areas at the higher visitor frequency and the colder blue areas at the lower visitor frequency. So from this map it's quite a warm map quite high on average visitor frequency most of the cold areas are text panels and also the hottest areas you can see are these audio-visual interactive elements as well as human remains. There's panoramic view of Stonehenge through time, a video of the landscape and these reconstructed developmental phases. At the British Museum we see a very different heat map. We see in general it's quite a cold map it's got on average quite a low visitor frequency and that impacts you to its layout like a corridor where visitors have a tendency to walk straight through. There are some cases to try and attract the attention of the visitor which is quite successful in the case of the mould gold cape we see here, this is one of the higher visitor frequencies but what else can we see about the cases that are more frequently visited? They tend to have the more shiny objects in them and human remains. So it seems that visitors have a tendency to walk straight through unless they see these magpie cases of shiny material and human remains. It's also reflected in the average blood time for the gallery which is just four minutes. At the British Museum again like Stonehenge quite a warm map the only cold areas are the text panels and the case on Liffix. The hottest case is arguably the star object which is the Appleby log boat and then second to that are two cases on the Iron Age. Now what's surprising here is that in many of my other case studies it's just from questionnaires that visitors the thing they least like about free history is pottery and then here the second most frequently visited case is full of Iron Age pottery and it's perhaps because this is the focus on the local Iron Age like Dragonby which reflects the interest of the predominantly local demographic and again we also see human remains featuring quite prominently as being frequently visited. So what exactly do the visitors themselves think? When asked what do you like most about the gallery and what's the free museum? These are the responses that come up most frequently and for the most part these answers support tracking data. At Stonehenge a lot of respondents mentioning the interactive audio visual elements at both Stonehenge and North Lincolnshire Museum a lot of respondents say how much they like the displays and the layout which is reflected in the generally warm heat maps at these two museums. At the British Museum visitors saying they really like the jewellery, the tools, the weaponry and the high cases and also at North Lincolnshire Museum lots of respondents say they like the local focus which perhaps explains that high frequency at the Dragonby case. But what do visitors like least about these museums? When asked this question you'll see across all three cases there are issues with display layout and displays themselves and these issues are predominantly visitors wanting to see more space there's a lack of flow lots of displays of similar artefacts and also that displays can sometimes be not very exciting but more positively across all three case studies when asked what do you least like about the displays they said nothing and this is supported by 36% of respondents who chose not to answer the question. So what exactly do visitors engage well with? Unfortunately I've only presented on a very small part of my research today but for my other case studies and research I can say something that comes across quite strongly is visitors love timelines and context they want to be able to situate their knowledge for many prehistories a period that's unfamiliar so to see references to sites and periods they are more familiar with they can become more relatable to them and this was particularly obvious to me at Stokehand Visitors Centre where they have this global timeline putting the site in context and in the questionnaires many respondents explicitly said how much they liked this timeline and also many respondents who said they were surprised to learn that that Stonehenge predated that Pyramid predated the Easter Island heads and upon learning this they became much more interested in the site but also what lots of respondents have said but what they find most interesting about prehistory not just the museums is the mystery of it the sense of unknown and discovery but on the flip side what they least like is the assumptions the theories and the speculation so this ambiguity of evidence and interpretation that characterises prehistory can either be really engaging or disengaging to visitors depending on how it's framed visitors also really like the tactile hands on experience audio visual elements and they like a narrative to follow as we saw in what people least like from the previous free museums a lot of people mentioning issues with a lack of flow and that's because they want to be able to follow something through and finally they like to see what it was like for people like them in the past aspects of daily life and of course shiny things and human remains thank you very much for listening


been some, some, uh, rubbish data out of Asia, China and Japan, like Japanese exports got, got hit. I think they've turned negative for the first time since 2021, uh, the China stuff, you know, obviously shook the hang saying, but he got bit up nice and quickly in early trade. Um, but I think there's, yeah, there's, there's a lot of stuff out there that seems really, really illiquid. The dollar has just gone crazy today. The euro, euro's down at one spot, zero, eight and a half. I think it's the last time I saw it Aussie down. Um, it's, yeah, I feel like it's very much August market since difficult to deduce what people's true behavior is for the next quarter, so September, people are back from the Hamptons, people are back from the South of France. Maybe we can see what their real thoughts are some of these asset managers and what direction they want to take it. But the euro is, this is probably one of the most undispoken, uh, assets out there at the moment or FX pairs. Because if you draw a trend line, right, and I'm only in favor of trend lines when they're over such a long period from, I think about 2008, it's maybe 2005 and I've got the chart in my head, but I can't remember the specific years, but we just came off, um, um, almost two decade trend line, um, from about one spot, one two, maybe I think it's like one spot, one, two and a half. And we're heading down now. Yeah. And every single time we've gone and touched that line, the euro's plummeted, which makes sense in the current context as well with Germany really facing issues. And especially if your currency weakens, you know, it's meant to induce demand. Um, so that's definitely one to look at as well and keep an iron over the next year or so. I think, I think the euro's in a lot of trouble. I really, really do. Um, the euro, the eurozone economy just looks decimated. And I think there's a nice sort of parity, not parity trade, uh, a nice, uh, relative trade there between the euro and the slotty. So the Polish slotty, I think the Polish slotty and Poland in general has a good amount of support and a good amount of upside. Yeah. Um, yeah, I'm a, I'm a big, big ball on Poland to be fair. Not that that's part of the discussion.


Hawaii video 2. I did morning yoga today on the beach, I went surfing. I'm here to tell you right now, we don't care.   Okay, let me clap my cymbals and I'll get right into it. 96 overall, quarterback scrambler out of position. Bo Jackson, there was this period of time where I had a bunch of travel and I literally didn't know this card existed until I played against it. It is so good. 98 speed raw. He's got 99 throw power. His medium accuracy is 90, 98 deep. He has 99 excel, 97 agility. So obviously like he's literally just built to run.  So he has truz, which is an NFL combined specific ability. You need to wait nine plays, but after those nine plays, you get truz for the rest of the game. You can't fumble as a result of a tackle, which is insane for quarterbacks who are super fumble prone. He's got gunslinger, duh, human joystick for free. Not ability to really use anymore. And you could use set feet lead, but I don't plan on throwing with him very much. How to master for one in case we have to throw. Also a huge thank you to SeatGeek for sponsoring today's video. SeatGeek sells tickets for anything.  And of course, there's a link in the top of the description. The SeatGeek app makes buying simple because they take tickets from all around the internet and put them in one location. They also have price indicators. Look for the green dots. Those are the best value for whatever you're buying a ticket for. Once again, don't forget that promo code MMG for $20 off your first purchase. Link in the top of the description and enjoy the rest of the video. And most importantly, we are gonna be rocking Raven's Offensive Playbook, which has a ton of quarterback runs in it. That's the goal today. We want to go ridiculous with quarterback Bo Jackson. Wanna see the rest of this team? This is the pack and play squad. So we've got team of dear McCaffrey, who we got last episode. A lot of these guys we got last episode since we reset the squad. Kelsey Werves, got Debo at wide receiver. Dude, if you take a look at my wide receiver core though, Debo, Ozzie Newsome, Karunk. These are actually insane blockers, like all of them. And then of course, we got the Nigerian nightmare at fullback in Joku and Donald Parham. So running with Bo shouldn't be too difficult. The only thing is like they have nerfed your ability to run with a quarterback a lot in recent Madden's.  We are gonna have to mix some passes in here. Then defensively, I have my Luke Keekley, who I love so much, Ronnie Lott, Jabril Peppers. It's really not the best defense in the 93 overall. It's not God Squad OP, but it's good. I wasn't actually gonna open any packs today, but these ultimate legend packs, there's a limited Larry Allen. Larry Allen is always one of the most expensive cards in the game, just because offensive linemen are crazy expensive. All right dude, I'm just gonna rip this four times 91 plus. If we decide to go crazy with it, we go crazy. If not, whatever. This isn't a pack opening video, but I can't stop myself.  You gotta let me do my thing. Okay, so we know the animations. Limited Larry Allen would actually be this animation, which doesn't make any sense. Now here's a guy. I always forget that Chris Consworth is actually a really good wide receiver. Oh, but if you get the other animation, you get a 97, but not the limited. Looks like we're gonna get all 91s here. That's all 91s for, yeah. Damn. None of these are really that worth it. I mean, this is the best value here. You get a 94 plus, then your choice of one of 297s or the limited, but still, that's just not that good. I wouldn't really recommend opening anything right now. All right, quarterback, Beau Jackson. Last game we played on this account, I won. You guys saw it, right? The team of the year pack-and-play, I assume you saw it. That game was gnarly. So we're gonna try and keep that up right now. Also, I need to show off my Fitbit numbers today. All right, here's what I've done so far today. Beau Jackson, Luke Keekley, McCaffrey, gnarly top three. I'm a real nasty guy. Holy fuck, what? Since when is there a 99 overall reshot, what? All right, you wanna brag about this, though? Look at that, bro. Come on. That's really not that impressive. I burned 2,300 calories today, six miles. When you surf, you burn a lot of calories, but you don't travel a far distance. Whatever, whatever, I'm proud of it, guys. I'm not really a cardio guy. When I'm in Arizona, I pretty much just go to the gym. So I'm really only going like two miles a day, maybe. By the time I get back to Michigan for this summer, I'm going to be jacked and blonde and tan.  You better hide your husband. All right, quarterback Beau Jackson. What do we got, baby? Let's throw a dot. Let's keep him on his feet. I don't want him just keying on the quarterback run, right? So there's one for one, 16 yards, good start. Let's stay right in this and let's just take a peek. Look at that, right there, there's Gronk.  Two for two, 35 yards. Need my water, need my water.  Run dot. All right, let's rip the triple option. Yup, yup, pitch. Oh my God, that was money. That was actually money. That is exactly how you run a triple option. Okay, let's run it back. I'm hoping they don't key on my boy though. Oh, okay. Bo can take this one right up the middle. Let's go, Bo. No way I know how to triple option him to death, right? There's just no way. Okay, so he run commits on this one and I can cut it up again. Oh my God, come on. Let's go. Oh, now I'm going to switch to a pass. He's going to run commit. This is a touchdown. No, it's actually not a run commit, but it's a big enough blitz that Enjoku is wide open. You are getting dotted by triple option. We still have hot route master so I can give McCaffrey the angle route. I might have had something there, but he's set like seven. I really do love how good of an option, triple option is this year. It's a very legitimate play. Right up the middle. Right up the middle, no. Oh, if I get there a little bit quicker, that's money. Okay, we have trust activated now. I'm going to go this check down right here. McCaffrey's got a juke shoot. We got a fourth and goal, boys. I'm going to try and scramble this with Bo if nothing's open. Oh, I don't know. He honestly was gas. If I hadn't abused him so bad on that drive, he easily gets there, but I overused him. No, we get stuffed on the one.  Oh, he's got Bo. It's a Bo off. Okay. He's got two Bo's. He's got Bo quarterback, Bo halfback. And he goes with RPO reflat wheel to get out of that nice play. Don't try that again though. You're getting alert. Do you do that again? Oh, he has three Bo Jackson's out there. He literally has, he actually has three. And he's going to slide. That's not the Bo Jackson way. He has Bo Jackson, halfback, quarterback, and tight end. And that play just got, wow. I don't know how Buckner didn't get him. He was in that backfield. But we're looking at a third and one here. Easily could get this stop if we play this right. See if he runs it again. Oh, another RPO, but this one is lurked. Goes back to the RPO. Kramarty's having none of it. Huge play Kramarty. Okay, so we have trust now. I can run like QB Blast. It's actually perfect. I love that we got matched up against this guy because we're running the same shit. All right, let's try QB Blast on this first place. Yeah, this works. Honestly, Warren Sapp completely deleted that. So this is gonna be my last triple option for a little bit. It's called run up the middle. I honestly had the pitch. Why is this such a good play? I think Njoku's there. He expects to run, so Njoku's there. Yep, same throw we made before. Okay, I just had to run the offense exactly like this until I get in the end zone. I need to stop being all weird on the goal line. I'm wondering if I can get Njoku over the top right here. Hmm, he's on it. Damn, Nate Wiggins just came in so hot. Okay, so I'm thinking McCaffrey's open now. Okay, we love to see that. Wait, did he run commit? Or did he just blitz both the corners? I don't know, best touchdown, but I know. Oh no, that's a run commit. We're gonna go heavy Raven QB Blast. This is a classic Baltimore play right here. Not sure how this is gonna work against Warnsap, but I wanna give it a go.  Oh my God, I almost glitched my way in there. So right now I have identifier on Jason Kelsey, but if I wanna be able to run those, I needed to put secure protector on Jason Kelsey. So, you live and you learn, but hey, it's a six-zero lead. We both turned the ball over once. Ooh, Chris Jones through the middle right there. I'm gonna guess pass on this one. Let's hop on Keekley and let's just not let anything down the middle. He really has three Bo Jackson's on offense. That is so funny to me. That was blatant pass interference.   Although honestly, is that accurate to real life NFL? Ooh, Ronnie Labro. Don't test that Ronnie Labro. So Ronnie Lot is so unbelievably good. I hope he doesn't quit because we're having a Bo Jackson off right now. Here we go, Bo. So how do I lose? No, so Truz is unstoppable. There's nothing he can do to get this off. So it's just on for the rest of the game. So, oh, so close. Yo, triple option OP.  That's okay, I can probably hit a Joku. He's gonna blitz that corner again. Now he actually saw it. He froze me for a second there.  I got antsy. What about an in Joku corner route? I wonder if that gets him. Oh, it does. Ay, let's go. Look at this Bo Jackson.  Like I think in Joku's a touchdown again. There he is. Ah, he even has Bo Jackson been a linebacker. This guy is like six different Bo Jackson. By the way, if any of you are coming to Oahu at any point or Honolulu, whatever, I'll be pretty much on White Kiki Beach every day. So if you wanna come say hi, come say hi. You'll find me. We are bodying this man. I love that he has the Bo Jackson team. Second to nine. Let's see what he's got here. Kermarty's got his X-Factor lit up. Now the one thing I will say. Ooh, Jabril. Please don't quit, please don't quit. Please don't quit. I'm having so much fun. Tackled by none other than Bo Jackson. The one thing I'll say is my corners on this team are so bad. So if he figures that out, he could probably beat me. But right now it keeps going to my safeties. My safeties are insane. I got Jabril and Ronnie. All right, here we go. We could go for a hat trick in the first half. Uh-oh. That is a lot of bodies. I'm not fast enough to do this. See, that's how I was running out of stamina earlier too. Just being a dummy. Seven for nine, 84, two touchdowns. Killing it. Another read option here. The read key's a corner.  Take third and eight. I'm cool with that. Third and eight. Bo Jackson. Fight. I got Stonewall. We almost went all the way in, but not quite. Big Lits. Get around it. Laser beam. The passer, why not, bro? Why not? I thought it was on me. I thought I might've thrown it past a lot of scrimmage. Dude, oh my God. Perfect game, perfect QBR. I thought this was gonna be all about the scrimm. Oh, catch it. What? And it was illegal touching. Oh my gosh. Last time I got illegal touching, I was at a preschool. I'm having my perfect ever passing game with the 98 speed Bo Jackson. He's still got good rushing stats, though, too. Like the triple option's getting there.  Oh, yeah. He did, that was his most effective play today. Is that right there? What is this Bo Jackson half back half? What is that ability?  He has angry runs. So he's gonna break this tackle. Yeah. Damn, I didn't realize the Bo Jackson half back had that. If I'm him, dude, I'm handing the ball off every single time. A minute left, I've got all three time outs. Let's see who tries to use this clock. I'm gonna drop Jones and Terminator. If he wants to run it, he can run it. Oh my God. Wait, that's nasty. So he could hand it off, he could pass it, and you can scramble effectively out of that? Let's try and guard the pass option. Yup. Sorry, you can't see where my eyeballs are looking when the shade's on. I thought I lurked that shit, but I'm not getting that. He has the RPOs down, but that one was bottled. Third and nine, I'm gonna send a blitz here. I can't let him use this whole clock. I wanna have my own opportunity. What's he doing? Heater, fourth and nine. This is really bold. If he doesn't get this, it is game over. He really has this. Fourth and nine, he does preserve a timeout though. So he has the option to get that and get down and call the timeout. Okay, nicely played. How do you think he gets in here? Is this an RPO? It is, it is. And he's gonna, wow. That was like God tier clock management, well played. Scorbid absolutely no time left. There is one second on the clock, so I can stat pad. Who doesn't love a good stat pad? All right, so I'm gonna max protect and then I'm just gonna take off.  No shot, oh my God, who am I? That was a run commit. I think I could have passed the touchdown on that. What I did was cooler. Everyone saw what I did, that was so much cooler.  So does he go same RPO? I'm gonna fake guard the bubble and then just come over to something else. Inside zone maybe? There's absolutely nothing open. 100%, absolutely nothing open. There's no way you get out. Either second to 28. Not today son, not today son. Boxed like a fish. I don't ask those questions, chat. I just get dubs. Another run commit, it would appear. No way. I know I could have thrown a touchdown. I didn't want to. It's cooler to do what I did. Dr. Gronk, nine, four, 11, 97 yards, three touchdown. Let's go power read. I don't think, I think I have to hand this off. I want it to be about bow, you know?  Oh, oh, I was gonna say it keeps run committing but I don't think that was a run commit. I think he's just running in gauge eight. Well, we're back to square, well not square one, but I know my interception was bad but that was bad. Truly my most effective offense is triple option. Let's just run it right at the teeth of this blitz. I think this is my most effective offense is just throwing this quick throw to my calf, right? Yeah, cause your man is so far. Oh, it is a buddy. Dude, who would have thought bow would be throwing four touchdowns? I feel bad about the interception. Dot, yeah. Can you get a perfect QBR with an interception? I don't think you can. Hey, shout out to Dooley though. Dooley is playing this one out. He knows it's that bowjaxing gameplay video or something, man. Hey, okay, a rack bow. Dude, how do you have this skill to stutter step six of my defenders but the offensive IQ of a toddler?   Oh yeah, he was, dude. He was 100% throwing that. Eye form?  Bro, if you let 92 Josh Norman pick you off while I'm staring at myself on the camera, you just got to hang up, throw in the towel. Ibi-oh.  I see you in Joku. No way I hit that.  Oh, nice tackle. I could have housed that. This bow Jackson is so good. Like my opponent's making him look better for sure.  No! I just wanted to see, I just wanted to see this that line. I just wanted to see this that line. All right, boys. Oh my God, 182 passing yards, four passing touchdowns, one interception and I think it was 50 or 60 rushing yards? Was that what bow had? We're an insane game. I love you boys, thank you for watching. One sec, I gotta get this for the thumbnail. I gotta get the combine animation for the thumbnail. We're gonna get one more pack. You ever wonder how these beautiful thumbnails come together?  All right, I love you.  I rated an eight out of 10.


Reflection is an amazingly powerful thing perspective is an amazingly powerful thing right now reflection simple just just looking at what you've done right it could be reflecting on something you did that you need to fix it could be reflecting on something that you did just recognize how long it was and what okay a reflection can be an amazingly powerful thing most people don't learn to reflect until they get a little bit older okay all right because we're either so busy chasing or we're in denial about the stuff we maybe didn't do that we don't want to stop for a second and just take a look back and just be like you know what man I've killed it this week you know what man I've really put a lot of heart and soul into my environment and the people around me that makes me feel good there's absolutely nothing wrong with that absolutely nothing wrong with reflecting on stuff but you also got to reflect on man you know what I wasn't a great big brother this week I was I was kind of a turd to my little brother all week long and I need to fix that all right you know what that you know what that is that's self-awareness okay this has nothing to do with wrestling all right that's self-awareness being self-aware of your strengths your weaknesses your failures your successes and being able to look at them and take away stuff from them do I need to make adjustments do I need to just feel real good for the day about what I did all right that's powerful guys that's a powerful thing that you can start developing now and it might start on a real little level it just might be like you know what self-awareness is going to be me doing it what everything I'm told when I'm at home the very first time all right I'm not going to wait the third time to take out the trash I'm going to be self-aware that I struggle with that when my dad or mom asks me to take the trash out I'm going to stop what I'm doing and I'm going to do it okay and I'm going to be self-aware when I didn't have to go to that extra practice because there was a lot of stuff going on and I could make an excuse to go to that extra practice or I could make an excuse to eat the food that I'm not supposed to eat or watch the shows that I'm not supposed to watch or consume the music that I probably shouldn't be consuming all right I'm going to be self-aware enough to know that that that stuff I'm consuming doesn't get me to where I want to go okay so reflection super important super important now perspective all right now someone's talking to coach about last night talking about creativity me and him had an awesome talk last night I wish I would have just filmed it or just recorded the audio and talked for about what three hours last night coach just talking and it wasn't all about wrestling it was all about just being a human being and staying motivated and just trying to figure out this whole scientific thing because some of it is scientific right all right but when we're talking about self-awareness and and perspective and reflection perspective can be a powerful thing because it's just the way you look at something right so you've got a bunch of different coaches that have come in here a bunch of different coaches coach a bunch of different ways right so a bill longer might not coach the same as our know and our know might not coach the same as same as as Andy right but they you know why they don't because they look at things a different way everybody looks through the world through a different lens right but when I talk about creativity creativity is the ability to just kind of step and circle and be like I'm gonna look at this from a different angle I'm gonna look at this from a different angle I'm just gonna come over here I'm gonna look at it from the side I'm gonna look at it from the bottom I'm gonna look at it from the top okay because I'll tell you right now if you do this your whole life all right you're gonna wake up one day and look around and be like holy smokes that was like stuff out your own side like I just been looking what's in front of me the whole other stuff behind me right perspective can be an amazingly powerful thing all right so when I talk about creativity I'm talking about the way you look through the world in your lens sometimes our lens is just focused straight ahead man we got to open that lens up and we got to start looking at everything around us all right that's the number one thing that the best coaches and the best entertainers and the best inventors and the best businessmen that I've ever been around or read about or watched a video about they're amazing at looking at the world their business their product their idea their dream their goals do a bunch of different lenses a bunch of different perspectives and that's creativity creativity in drawing pictures yeah it is that's artistic creativity is being able to look at things observe things process and put things back in the world through a different lens so I'm telling you guys perspective and reflection can be two of the most powerful things that you take forward then you add some purposeful work you add a lot of this other stuff man you're a powerful human being you literally can think where other people aren't willing to okay I'm talking about your brain right now I'm not talking about your body purposeful works a lot of physical stuff right it's engaged here and here when I talk about perspective it's a lot of this all right so you got that one friend that wants to argue about something and only sees it one way right we all got that person might even have that relative that crazy uncle man he just wants to talk about one thing he only wants to see it one way and if you disagree with him it's an argument for 20 hours right some people just don't look to look from a different perspective a lot of people look at just wrong and right black and white all right but again like I said man we got to open that up okay and when you open it up and you start looking around you you're going to see a lot more stuff you're going to see more opportunity you're going to see things that that you never saw before that you can start creating your own right you can be innovative right and the most important thing is man your life's going to be fresh your life's going to stay fresh because when you go to practice five days a week and go school five days a week you got tournaments on the weekend you got chores at home and you got homework and projects and all that stuff in that just becomes a routine I just wake up and I just do it and then I just come on I wake up and I do it but when your perspective changes all right things are fresh all right it's easier to motivate yourself it's easier to motivate those around you all right so I want you guys to think about that how do I look at the world can I look at the world different differently all right do I do I do I go home tonight and just sit in my bed and turn off the tv and turn off the music and just like you know what I'm gonna feel good about myself because I put in 15 hours worth of purposeful work in three days some guys will go an entire summer and not put 15 minutes worth of work into what they're doing to anything all right so reflection is powerful but hey it goes both ways you got to reflect on the stuff you need to improve on as well right didn't do that report you were supposed to didn't do what your parents asked you to you're where you're supposed to be you're not where you're supposed to be when you said you were supposed to be you got to reflect on that stuff too and then you got to own it you got to own your wins on your losses all right own them own them all right own own your wins on your losses perspective reflection think about it tonight even you little guys you guys look through the world it's such a different creative lens I love I love the little guys all right you guys are the most creative out of the whole bunch right you had been you had been conditioned with all this other stuff that the older guys have whether it's music or parents or relatives or or peers right because you're the sum of the five people you spend the most amount of time with you think about the five people you spend the most amount of time with right you probably eat at the same places listen to the same music watch the same shows play the same video games because those five people are part of your environment now it could be really really good those five people could be really really bad and it might not be all just your friends it might be two friends your mom and your dad and somebody else but you are the sum of the five people you spend the most amount of time with so if I want to reflect on that I need to reflect on hey who are those five people and are they adding value to me chasing my dreams and vice versa am I adding value to them chasing theirs and if they're dead weight might need to make a decision right if they're dead weight you might need to make a decision but I challenge you guys to just take some time and reflect on what you've done be proud of and reflect on what you need to fix and get to work all right and then start start changing your perspective on things I'm not saying one day I believe in this and the next day I don't believe in it that's not what I'm asking you to I'm just talking I look at it through a different lens look at a wrestling move through a different lens look at a relationship through a different lens look at your schoolwork through a different lens you could probably get excited about being good at math if you want it to I hate math right does that make sense to you guys okay just looking at things different and seeing what math can provide to my education as I go on to be a rocket science whatever all right so reflection and perspective I really want you guys to spend some time thinking about that good hey after we think about it tonight we keep applying it down the road all right because again we only got these handlers guiding us through life for so long right so we got to start on with some of it got it great day today


My name is John Mutuakimewu. I come from Kenya. My problem started sometime in June this year. When I started getting having difficulties in breathing, I could not walk for long. I tried to walk for a few distance then I I started getting tired, I could not walk any longer. After consulting a few doctors in there, I was referred to a cardiologist in my hometown. I went to the cardiologist and after some few tests, then I was told that I have an ascending aortic valve which needed a complex surgery. Through a friend, I was introduced to another friend from Bangaluru. His name is a rolling smathias. He lives in Bangaluru. I got his contact, I talked to him and he introduced me to Manipal Hospital. We made the arrangements although it was not easy because at that time there was this COVID-19 restrictions and most countries were locked down. So we had to wait until the airspace is opened. Then I made arrangements with rolling, he met me at the airport and he brought me to Manipal. At Manipal, I was taken to the international desk where I met a very helpful lady, Lahari, with a team. Lahari has been taking me through different departments for different tests for more than a week until I completed all the tests. Any other department I'm taken, I have to produce the COVID test certificates that are negative and there is a lot of social distancing, sanitization and all precautions are taken in the hospital. So there is nothing to fear about COVID-19 here. After completion of the tests, I went and sat with a team of doctors, cardiologists, led by Dr. Devanada. Asending a Yalta means the beginning portion of the Yalta was quite enlist almost to the tune of 7 cm. Along with a leaking Iotikvaal. Now only treatment of dealing such complicated problems of Iota is surgery at this moment. There is no other way of dealing this. So we planned an operation around that and that was executed. What we did any was since is Iotikvaal was so-called tri-leaflet, but partly damaged. We had to replace that and the entire Iota beginning from the root up to the origin or beginning of the vessels to the brain, the entire Iota was replaced with a specialized Dacron tube. Surgery went very well. He recovered very well and is even discharged. New reasons of Iota generally develop for various reasons, but in this specific location, so-called Asineng Yota, almost 40 to 45% of them could be familiar. There are various mutations in the genes which are all involved in the formation of these tissues have been identified. Yes, even Mr. John, we have advised him to go through the Iotopathy gene panel, which he wants to get it done a later date. So that if we pick up a mutation, we can even test his siblings and other relatives to pick up those mutations. The complication of this disease, aneurysm, one is dissection. These blood vessels can split spontaneously, causing either instantaneous death in many or probably delayed it in some other patients. The other complication as the size increases, can rupture also creating fatality, mainly the death. So these are two important things because of very serious nature of these complications. These diseases have to be dealt with very aggressively. Mr. John has gone through this and several of other patients also in the African countries have visited for this particular problem. These are very serious health issues. Unfortunately, do not produce so many symptoms until either they are accidentally picked up or we land up in a complication. The important message in this is, since as I said, these diseases do not carry specific symptoms, at least if it is picked up in some, definitely the entire family should be screened or if there is an opportunity to look into the mutations in the genes, they should certainly go for it. And today in expert hands and the right places, treatment probably carries very, very low mortality. From the way we talked with the doctor, he looked very experienced and I had a lot of confidence in him. So I chose bantal surgery and I was operated on, on 12th of this month or 12th of November and in 10 days after the operation, I was on my feet, I could walk and I was discharged actually from the hospital. Something which even my people from home could not believe when I tell them that I'm walking, they couldn't believe. As you can see now, I've fully recovered and I'm even ready to go back to my country. Special thanks go to the whole Manipa Hospital staff starting from the international launch Laari and the doctors led by Dr. Devanada, the nurses at the ITU department and the nurses at the 10th floor where I went for admission, they were all super, they were good and I thank them all.


That's going to hurt, especially Yamcha, because I did call an assist. Yup, sorry about the Yamcha.  How's it going, everybody? Datu Dui here back with some more Dragon Ball Fighters ranked matches. This time playing one of my favorite teams in the game right now, Krillin, Jiren and Yamcha. And I really do apologize if this team is getting old at this point. I just love playing Season 3 Jiren so much. Any character with counters is automatically going to be so much fun for me in fighting games. That's why when UI Goku comes out really soon, mid-May, I'm going to be all over that character. Jiren is going to be moving on. UI Goku is going to be in that back middle slot.  I'll get to rock out with like some beam assist. But nah, that is definitely something I'm looking forward to. I'm just going to let, you know what? We've been talking about it for so long. Let me let Jiren do some talking. And by talking, I mean getting hit by Super Dashes. All right, we're in. That damage is going to look good too. All right, wait for it. Beam assist. Nice. And why not add the level 3 just for style? This attack decides it. And it really does. If he doesn't spark, I might go in for the kill here. What? How did I miss? Oh, I should have done the Key Blast assist. That's fine. We're over. Nice DP. I was, I was going to keep attacking. I was definitely looking for some blood though. I was, I was scrapping. How do I get out of here? Am I just going to spark? I guess so. I guess we will eat the spark here. Man, I am regretting it. Another good use of the Yamcha assist. All right, going all the way up. Jiren, too much. Counter damage. That's it.  Come on. There we go. Once you get that counter off, it is pretty much good to go in those scenarios. You want a Key Blast? Hold on. No, that was, that was a Super Dash. Okay. Oh, there's another bit of damage for you. You just can't get any attacks past Jiren, especially when these level 3s keep flying at you. I think he's going to spark this time, but I'm going to go for an overhead. See what happens. That's going to hurt. That's going to hurt, especially Yamcha, because I did call an assist. Yep. Sorry about the Yamcha. Dude, look at, look at how much blue light. You could tell he was very afraid of doing any physical attacks. And that's exactly what Jiren wants you to feel. Now, what does he do here? Oh, he went with Melee. Okay. Want to get, that's death. That is death. The scaling on that move is very good. So Jiren's just going to clean up the first match. Wasn't, he didn't get out of it with no bruises though. He, my man got beaten up a little bit.  I like how Krillin and Yamcha totally fine. Jiren's all banged up though. All right. That was a great, I don't think we're going to get another Jiren round like that just because a lot of those were from scramble hits that he, he wanted to fight back, you know, see if he could squeeze in an attack and Jiren was just there already taking the counter stance. Two jumps. Okay. Jiren's assist is also pretty good though. That's why Jiren is definitely pretty, pretty good. He's definitely pretty good in season three. Could he be better? Of course, especially if they, um, I didn't, I just decided I didn't want to kill there, I guess. I don't know why I did it that way, but especially if his air counter was, oh, absolute power, I guess. See that time moves the key block. My reads with Jiren are always off. Now, the reason I sparked there was up because I'm actually quite done. Gotcha. Hey, you would have thought, you would have thought you hit me. Nah, it was all planned. I'll take it. We're going to have to vanish for that though. If it was the EX eye glare, we could have gotten away with it, but to the corner. I don't think we're going to have enough time. So I'm just going to heavy and I see we didn't. Oh, nice use of the key blast. I thought he would have to go with a different option. So my EX counter just got absolutely destroyed. Oh, but again, sorry, that was not the correct answer that Jiren wanted to see on the board. Oh, but you are going to live home again. That's nice. It's good to hear it off. So sorry, man. How much how much bar? Okay. We didn't see three bars. So we're just going to take a level one. We are close to the corner though. So we're not completely out of it, but I think he's going to keep last 6M. Wow, that was close. Oh, we really need to get Vegeta out here. No, that wasn't going to work. I got I got desperate. Oh, I dash kick assist. That's good to know. At least I didn't know he was rocking dash kick. And if I could have known, I just wasn't paying attention. I don't know if he's used it before. But I just missed it, but that's good to know. It's important to remember that Jiren's assist. I mean, not assist projectile counter also works on assist, which is why that's why I think they don't want to buff it because I'm not going to lie. That would be if if somebody trained with Jiren like to a ludicrous amount and they could they just had the reaction time and the reeds of a God. I think about how scary that would be like assist beams anything you'd ought you all of it would hit you and you could counter off and you could vanish to combo off of all of it. That's just that's why I think they probably don't want that they're afraid of that. I think they're honestly the developers are afraid of Jiren being too good. I say let the man rock. I was going to try to read that. Oh, no, bad read. Okay, now stay away. They way rocks help me defense. Oh, look at it. We got we got some defense. That should be no wait. Wow. That healing is pretty good. Hold on. Go through it. Go through it. Go through it. Go through it. Go through it. All right, double time. Everybody double time. Nice. Hold on. Bring the heat. Okay, we barely that was the last spirit ball to so we barely got through that healing. But because of that when we are now up to oh and I'm hoping Jiren makes it three. I'm hoping these counters start landing a little a little harder. I forgot I was I forgot we start with Krillin bring him back down to Yamcha. Yup. And you know what just let Jiren take it away range on the second light is so good going down again. Love to see it. I don't yes. Well, it could have been yes. Oh, could have been yes. But I dropped it didn't want to try spinning the bar right away. Doesn't matter. Key blast is looking mad potent. Oh, who's okay. Geneva. Okay. He's gone for super dash key blast. Okay. He was going to go for sword that time. All that range. Why not level three? So I'm glad we didn't try to counter to now I've come to accept that I can't read his Geneva. It's I can't get it for some reason. It's it's beyond me. Nice. Oh again. That was a great chance for me to try to do the assist counter. I messed that one up though. Getting jenembed looking like oh that was sick. But once again, you're oh no. All right. We're still good. You got I imagine trying to attack Jiren.  Oh and it sticks for a while and it just sticks around. Why Vegeta sells a lot of health up there. Oh that was sick. That was amazing. Oh no. Oh a lot of bad mistakes. Whole lot of bad. I'm just a fan of bad choices and what we're going to do here is we're going to snap him even though he's the only one left to buy additional time off that sparking and it looked like it worked pretty well because that sparking is all dried up. We still got to be careful about those DPs though. He has seven bars. Okay. Six bars pretty much. Oh that was it. That should have been it. Let's see if I can still make it be it was so close behind the back. Yes. Wolf egg fist is going to clean it up. I want one more. I want another one. I'm going back in. I can't I can't leave until I feel satisfied with Jiren. Thank you. Let's make this the last one. I can agree dude. You can feel it in the air. This match means a little more. Could it be the for real round? We just don't know what the science is unclear. But there's one thing science does know. I'm playing Jiren. Let's go. Okay. And science also points to the fact that team Gohan is pretty good. Vegeta. No, this is not the matchup. I want to see. She has too many neutral options. Let me go. Let me go. Let me go. Dude, just I'm free. Wow. Did I think he's sparking just saved him from the counter? Did you guys see that? That was interesting. That wasn't I should have level three. Oh, well, I've seen a lot in my day and that sure was unfortunate. Level one punch. Please fall. Oh my goodness. I had two hits as well. Man, I I thought I'm always so bad at connecting that Jiren level one. But I really did think that was going to hit. No. Whoa, I didn't even I didn't even know that was what his B assist was. That was sick. You got loops almost. We're going to let you have to do the extending force on the ground. Waste our second jump. Remember that we got to remember that now. All right, we're not going to use any bar because we want to use that sparking mix. When you're when you're using level one sparking remember every second is vital because now look at us. We're dropping calm. But look at us. Would we have been able to do that without sparking? No, I was going to point out how we got the kill because we didn't waste any time. But then I draw, you know, better players would have been able to point it out. Oh my God, look vicious. Prone's dead. Take two bars. Krillin be tough. No, wasn't even close. All right, reads, reads, even more reads. You know exactly what I'm doing. I'm reading the assist. Yes, like I said, you got to watch for those assists sometimes. Do we level three? Speak to me, Jiren. Yes. Why not six bars? Waste them. Get them back down to three. Going in. What do I go in for? Do I read the counter? Boom. Yeah. All right, this is going to take one of Megaton punch. But we got those two characters left. Now what's the read? Do I think he's going to wait a little while in Super Dash? Of course I do. Okay, I had options to cover that, but I definitely had to rely on insurance to get me out of that.  Are we just going to take out everybody with one combo into a Megaton punch? Should have been on the lookout. Should have been forcing him to get a little more create level three. Okay, can he mix us from there though? I don't think he can. I think we're going to mash. He respected us. Okay, respect was not the correct word. I'm sorry. This game is actually really close now. I think I'm just still two touches technically. There we go. That's a rapid. I'm going to be sick. I'm going to be sick. I'm going to be sick. Nice. Nice conversion though. Nice conversion. I don't know if the extra bar was necessary. I personally would have saved it for defense, but when you got it, sometimes you got it. I'll give it up. I didn't expect him to make that come back. I played really sloppy, but he played nice and clean. Nice. I got to give it up for that last couple of seconds. And because that was the additional one more, we can't call it. He said that was the last one though. So he I would I wouldn't understand if he called it, but he is a man of decency. He knows the rules. He was like, I can't leave on a win. And I can't leave on a lose. That's for a different reason though. I will leave on a win. If we I went, the rules don't apply to me. I feel like it's a decent exception. No dragon and no DP this time around. So we are just smoothing going right. You don't want to hold on. Let's see if I can't get a little crazy. Nope. I couldn't get a little crazy. That's fine. It still ended up working out just in a different way. If we need a level one.  I thought the assists were both blocked out. I thought I was going to try to go into Jiren. Should have just taken it with Yamcha. I got greedy. I couldn't play with Yamcha on point. So I had a and he was correct. So it wasn't even a read. I just got very lucky. It wasn't like he tried to make a read. He made the correct read. I just got saved. All right.  I like that he's changing up the ways he's trying to push back against Jiren when I haven't been blocked. That's smart. I feel like maybe I've gotten a little stale. Let me let me change up the style of play. I'm going in. Oh, I don't even was that a DP? Yeah, I don't know what that was either. Yeah, I have no idea why I backed up. I got no idea what that that style of play was. All right, it's early spark. It's not even that early. Honestly, we really need it. All right, we're going to put him back into the corner even though it doesn't really matter too much. Like I said, the seconds are more important to me. But all right, let's try to keep it optimal. I don't know why I did that. I was scared that entire time, but we got it. That was only slightly optimal. Let's go. Got our point character back out. Team Gohan's already a little low.  The question is, are we going to actually get that counter to go out? Oh, my goodness. We could have won. Read it. Okay. I don't know what he tried there. Thankfully, it wasn't a DP. We're back. We're back in the lead safely. We do have to deal with one level three spark in Jenemba. I'm not worried. I'm not worried about it. Okay. I'm not going to let him get away with that. Really know what I'm looking for here. Ah, he's still beat me in the end. Huh, old pal. That was a good command grab. Drop it. Yes. Oh, well, you know, I didn't make the most out of it, but whatever.  Now, please don't end me. Oh, I'm ended. This is a little damage. Oh, this ton of damage. Level one won't kill here though. He will get better corner. Okay. So just down tech and play dead. Oh, no, I didn't get to reflect and that sparking is still going. Somebody stop. Call the cops that it's rigged. There's no way that sparking time is real. Okay. He's down for the count. Do I use all three? But I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it just for the knockdown, just for a chance.  Oh, we got him. That should be game unless I drop it. No, we're good. We are good. We got it. Both me and Jenemba are going to come crashing into the ground. Hopefully you enjoyed this one. I know I've been playing a lot of Jiren. We'll mix it up with some more suggested team soon, but I had to do it. I had to come back.

A fire-breathing dragon lives in my garage. Suppose I seriously make such an assertion to you. Surely you'd want to check it out, see for yourself. Show me, you'd say. I lead you to my garage. You look inside and see a ladder, empty paint cans, an old tricycle, but no dragon. Where's the dragon, you ask? Oh, she's right here, I reply, waving vaguely. I neglected to mention that she's an invisible dragon. You propose spreading flour on the floor of the garage to capture the dragon's footprints. Good idea, I say, but this dragon floats in the air. Then you'll use an infrared sensor to detect the invisible fire. Good idea, but the invisible fire is also heatless. You'll spray paint the dragon and make her visible. Good idea, except she's an incorporeal dragon and paint won't stick. And so on, I counter every physical test you propose with a special explanation of why it won't work. Now, what's the difference between an invisible, incorporeal, floating dragon who spits heatless fire and no dragon at all? If there's no way to disprove my contention, no conceivable experiment that would count against it, what does it mean to say that my dragon exists? Your inability to invalidate my hypothesis is not at all the same thing as proving it is true. Claims that cannot be tested, assertions immune to disprove are veritically worthless whatever value they may have in inspiring us or in exciting our sense of wonder. What I'm asking you to do comes down to believing in the absence of evidence on my say so. The only thing you've really learned from my insistence that there's a dragon in my garage is that something funny is going on inside my head. You'd wonder, if no physical tests apply, what convinced me? The possibility that it was a dream or a hallucination would certainly enter your mind. But then why am I taking it so seriously? Maybe I need help. At the least, maybe I've seriously underestimated human fallibility. Now another scenario. Suppose it's not just me. Suppose that several people of your acquaintance, including people who you're pretty sure don't know each other, all tell you they have dragons in their garages. But in every case the evidence is maddeningly elusive. All of us admit we're disturbed at being gripped by so odd a conviction, so ill-supported by the physical evidence.  We speculate about what it would mean if invisible dragons were really hiding out in garages all over the world, with us humans just catching on. I'd rather it not be true, I tell you. But maybe all those ancient European and Chinese myths about dragons weren't myths after all. Gratifyingly, some dragon-sized footprints in the flower are now reported. But they're never made when a skeptic is looking. An alternative explanation presents itself. On close examination it seems clear that the footprints could have been faked. Another dragon enthusiast shows up with a burnt finger and attributes it to a rare physical manifestation of the dragon's fiery breath. But again, other possibilities exist. We understand that there are other ways to burn fingers besides the breath of invisible dragons. Such evidence, no matter how important the dragon advocates consider it, is far from compelling. Once again, the only sensible approach is tentatively to reject the dragon hypothesis, to be open to future data, and to wonder what the cause might be that so many apparently sane and sober people share the same strange delusion. Thanks for watching.


Let's talk about Brooks Kepka because he is always an interesting cat when it comes to him in non-majors because he is openly said he doesn't really care and that's slightly concerning however Brooks did do well here last year. The problem is the current form is pretty bad so let's talk about Brooks Kepka here at 12,000 and then morph that into a discussion of the top tier of guys with Kepka Fleetwood and Fowler. Yes, so Brooks Kepka at $12,000, priciest golfer in the field. The betting favorite as well that almost always means that he's going to be the most popular pick on Vandal. Runner up here a year ago, really churned out strokes t-degree with a solid putter on top of it but the current form is sparse at best and also iffy since finishing third at the Tour Championship in late August which was quite a while ago at this point Kepka was cut at the Shriners which speaks to a lot about Brooks Kepka in non-majors, missing the cut at the Shriners for someone as good as Kepka is concerning with Drew from the CJ Cup, 34th in Abu Dhabi, 17th at the Saudi International and then 43rd at the Genesis. The t-degree, t-degree play has been fine. It's not really elite right now. Kepka is one of the golfers though who you just kind of don't really care about the stats because we know what he can do and it's not it's not even high end variance. It's high end engagement but he's two events away from the players so he could run away with this thing. He could just be out there trying things because some of the world's best golfers especially someone like Kepka will go play a high profile tournament to try things and that's wild to me but I don't know how to handle Brooks just yet. What are your first thoughts on Kepka? Well I think that if you were to assume which is an assumption we can make and we love making assumptions on this podcast because it's very beneficial for DFS. If you were to assume that Brooks Kepka were locked in for this event he'd be a no-brainer. Like I think that's the way that I view it there. So you think about what are the odds that he's locked in? I don't know but the other thing too is even looking at the events where he hasn't been locked in and some of them being you know post his knee injury he's been okay. Past 50 rounds does include time before the knee injury so with this caveat it's worth noting that but he's eighth and stroking off the tee, eighth in approach, fifteenth in Bermuda putting over the past 100 rounds. The stats profile despite including a lot of events where he probably didn't care is still tremendous relative to this field. So when I look at Brooks Kepka locked in he is multiple tiers above everybody else here at least in my view. Brooks Kepka not locked in I think that you have to differentiate a bit and you can't go like we will have golfers where we go 70% exposure. Brooks Kepka cannot be that guy inherently but I can see a situation where at least among these top three guys he'll be the guy used most often. So I have concerns I think those concerns are very valid however I am still willing to gamble with Brooks and throw him out there despite those concerns because of how big the upside is if he decides to try even a little bit in this field. So what about for you? Yeah I mean so to answer your question if if Kepka is locked and loaded he's easily the number one it's really not even that close in this field again we don't know that but the thing for me is that you know the players is coming up all these majors are coming up he's coming off an injury I don't think he necessarily needs to play in any events when before he's ready to play so I don't think the health is as big of a concern as it is just kind of the mental toughness because it's almost scarier now to target Brooks Kepka before the majors as opposed to some sort of events in between two majors because he got burned out last year we know that he said as much and he might just be trying to take it easy up until all these majors and the fifth major the players so it's very very very hard to figure things out and I think all we can do is assume build some line-ups based on those assumptions now again historically the most popular golfer is the the priciest golfer and the betting favorite and he's both so honestly I might be underweight relative to the field this week on Kepka


Holy moly, you guys, the Eiffel Tower! I'm finally accepting that I am as blind as it gets. I forgot to grab my glasses today and I swear to God, I can't even see people in front of me. But hey, I'm out! And today, like I promised you, the other guy, if you guys have been watching my vlogmas series, we're going to check a Christmas market here in Paris. And there's a garden right here that I'm trying to make my way to. It's called Garden of Cholleries and it's supposed to have a beautiful Christmas market, so very festive. And I cannot wait to bring you with me, guys, on the... I forgot which day. This day right here. It's pretty dangerous to be here with all the hot drinks, sugar, a lot of cheese and salt. Oh boy. I'm probably going to gain back all the pounds that I lost from walking 10,000 steps a day for a month now. Zina is going for one of the rides. It looks really cool, but I can't try stuff like this anymore. The last time I was on the ride, I ended up with a panic attack. So nope, not for me, but this is the ride that she's going for. Santa Swing. Zina is trying a raclette sandwich, which is basically a cheese sandwich. Like fondue type of cheese with some potatoes. Yeah, they usually add some sort of meat in the sandwich, but instead they've got potatoes. How is it? Good? It's starting to rain again.


Welcome to the 2017 NCAA World Finals. I'm here with the winner of the $25,000 novice non-pro, Tyler DeLang, who rode Rode Lewis the Cat. Congratulations to you, Tyler. Thank you, thank you. Take us through your rounds here. You go rounds. So yesterday, I marked a 227, and me, my grandpa, Rick Dubey, Casey, Ben and Galen Wells, we all kind of had a plan going on what cows to cut. My first cow was good, didn't really worry me at all. My second cow, I think we planned to cut it. She kind of rolled up on the outside a little bit and shaped up real good for me. And my third cow, I was, I think I turned around with about 50 seconds to go, so I just wanted to take my time in the herd and be smooth and patient. And so I kind of went to the back fence, came out, turned around, and I was going for a cherry red, but she kind of didn't shape up real well. So Casey said, stay black. And she kind of came around this outside and was real good. And I dropped down with about 28 seconds to go and Lewis just held it there. He just did his job. Okay, what is it like to compete in the water arena? It's great. This is my first time here. And I really liked the arena. You know, my horse likes it and ground was good and no complaints. Now, as you say, it's the first time you've hit the road and competed for the world finals to take it out. How does that feel? It feels great. I had a great year. First couple of months, I started off a little bit rough, but after Jackson actually, that was kind of my turning point in the year. And we just didn't quit from there and I had a lot of fun all year. Well, you finished up the year before you came to the finals, 20,000 ahead. That's a pretty strong lead. How did that affect the way or your game plan for the finals? Well, the last three months actually, we were already in the lead quite a bit, both me and Casey. And so the last three months, we're just kind of fun showing our horse. He stayed real healthy and he loves it. And then coming here, we just wanted to keep doing the same thing, just stick to the basics and just have a good time. Okay, now, this horse is obviously rather remarkable because he's won the non-pro and in the same event, the Open with Casey. Tell us about, firstly, how did you come across this horse? My mom, Amy DeLang, and my grandfather, Rick Dubay, they came down here for the sale that's coming up and we bought them there. And my mom has a real good eye for horses and I just trusted her. And the first time I showed him, I marked a four on him and I just kind of fell in love with him there. He still holds a very special spot in my heart. And was it always this horse or did you have some other horses on the road that you also competed on? Just him, just him all year. So that's quite an amazing feat. That's a lot of competitions and shows and hauling. How did you keep him sound? Well, so he walked in the herd between 290 and 300 times, just this year between me and Casey. We just kind of let him be a horse and just let him do his job. So what's happening next to you for you? We don't know yet. We're gonna see how the first year starts open in non-pro. But after that, we're just gonna go from there and take it day by day. So what's your advice for somebody who wants to go hauling for the World Finals? Go do it. Don't stop at anything. Just keep going and having a good time. Thank you for joining us.


Today, we're taking a look at the DC Direct Blackest Night Series 1 Blue Lantern St. Walker action figure. So stay tuned All right guys, welcome back to Comic-Con TV We're all geek culture collides and if you're new to the channel, don't forget to hit that subscribe button So you don't miss out on future videos Today, we're taking a look at the DC Direct Blackest Night Series 1 Blue Lantern St. Walker action figure. Now ordinarily, I would have this guy up on a turntable However, as you can see He I've kind of got him leaning against the wall because he's not He doesn't really stand up that well even with a peg. He's very I think his Legs might have warped while he was in storage. So he's not Because he's so slim Linky He just he won't stand up that well. He should stand about like that But over time his legs have warped Slightly and I can't really get him to stand. So here's his display base It's a blue transparent blue plastic With the white decal on it to form the blue lantern symbol Very nice, and he does come with a blue lantern just the same same sculpt as the other lanterns in this series and It does have the clear lens inside To worry if you hold it up to a light Just like that and that's all I'm gonna say about the lanterns. I've discussed it in Other reviews such as the Hal Jordan Green Lantern blackest night DC direct review As you'll notice with this guy, he's got an arm brace on because when John reviewed the entire line About a little over a year year and a half ago he went to show the articulation and because As soon as I take them out of the box. I just set them on my shelf The joints were very stiff This one busted so Had to use a bread tie took the paper off of it and Just laced it through Hold it in place. I will say that they could have maybe Made these guys a little bit better Maybe a little bit stronger because these are meant for the adult collector Given the price and everything. I don't think a lot of kids Would be having these and playing with them. I will say I do really like that metallic blue paint however Seems to be two slightly different blues as you can tell from the thought Hips there seems to be a darker shade blue on this side Lighter shade this side and no, it's not the light as you can see turn them around and yeah and I it appears to be the same way with the With his bracelets to lighter blue Darker blue. I'm not really sure what's going on there But as you can see his legs did slightly warp I Had him in a box with my other Green Lantern figures in storage Because I was running out of room to display them I may have to heat it up a little In order to get him to stand on his own again Or just put something in between his legs to hold him out like this for a while In order to get him to stand on his own again so anyway Articulation and I'm gonna try my Darnest Not to break anything this time So anyway his head just a standard joint no ball joint no rocker just turns from side to side unlike Laura Flea's unlike Hal Jordan and His arms They do go out that far Go up full view. He's a very tall figure about a seven inch figure About the same height as Laura Flea's just a lot skinnier There is no Bicep swivel Unlike Hal Jordan and Laura Flea's Because he's so slender. I don't think they could really put one in there Elbow joint the single oh That's I Don't want to do that That was starting to pop out Just like the other one But single joint single joint there push that back in Very fragile figure because he's so skinny He was and because I More than likely because he was serious one. I don't think they Had everything just right at that time His legs do go all the way out about that far Just like with Laura Flea's they can go back that far No thigh swivel Neat single knee joint Can go about that far No ankle no calf swivel His Little headpiece does not swivel either, but that's really all I can say about this figure because I know he I think it just goes to It just goes back to Sculpt a good sculpt but they made him way too slender They didn't really Take into account The joints easy to pop out easy to break if it's not played with for a while And like I said DC direct is mainly for the adult collector Yeah, there is no hand swiveling either but DC direct is mainly for the adult collector so They should have thought about that knowing that The collectors aren't going to be taking them out and playing with them constantly They really should have thought about that when putting these plastic pins in Told everything the Blue lantern signal symbol. It's not completely sculpted. It's slightly sculpted Raised above the chest with a decal in the center and the Inconsistency between the paint Which I really didn't even notice until now It's kind of off-putting as well and if you try to make him hold his lantern it just kind of Sits on his fingertips really not that great Yeah, I It's not really a lot else I can say about this guy considering All the problems that I've seen thus far After he's been out of store since he's been in storage. I would like to put him on display, but that Seems to be kind of difficult now since I can't really get him to stand really need to Work on his legs try and get him Back Let's see if they're good enough yet. He almost kind of needs two pegs To stand they really should have paid closer attention to there we go They really should have paid closer attention to this For saw problems collectors we're going to have with this guy Yeah, I can't really say a whole lot more So if you like this video make sure you hit that subscribe button so you don't miss out on future videos I'm Shannon for come again TV.


Millets are highly nutritious, but vastly ignored as a main source of food primarily due to lack of awareness. You've heard of ancient grains. Millets ain't messing around. Arguably the first grains cultivated by humankind, not just dating back 5,000 years, but maybe 10,000 years. Why the plural millets? Talk about lack of awareness. I had no idea that millet wasn't the name of a specific grain. Millet is just a generic term that doesn't just apply to a bunch of different species, but to a bunch of totally different plants. They're so-called major and minor millets. There's pearl millet, which is what I think most people think of as millet, but then there's proso, foxtail, and finger millets, which are all completely different grains. They look similar, but they're not the same. Fibers, one of the main things we're looking for in a whole grain, and codo millet, is like off the charts. But compared to other grains, finger and foxtail millet also beat off the bunch, though note that what most people think of as millet is really on the low side. But looking at the polyphenol content, even plain millet beats out the other grains, including sorghum, which I previously hyped for its polyphenol content. But again, codo millet seems to win the day. Total antioxidant-wise, though codo and finger millet are comparably high. Nutrition-wise, finger millet is said to have eight times more calcium than other grains, but looks to me like more like 10 times more, just off the charts. Three times as much calcium as milk. Some of the millets are exceptionally high in iron as well. Regular millet is high, but barnyard millet has like five times more iron than steak. Okay, so nutritious, but what about specific potential health benefits? In the medical literature, you'll read things like this. Millets may prevent cardiovascular disease by reducing triglycerides in hyperlipidemic rats. Who cares, other than perhaps pet owners, whether a food reduces cardiovascular disease in rodents? There was that epidemiological study in China that found lower esophageal cancer mortality rates in areas that ate more millet and sorghum compared to corn and wheat, but that may have been more due to avoiding a contaminating carcinogenic fungus than from benefit in the millet itself. Study show millets may be effective against cancer cell proliferation in a petri dish with codo and proso millet rapidly inhibiting cancer cell growth compared to pearl or foxtail millet, knocking down the growth of cancer cells but leaving normal cells alone.   Are there any unique health-promoting attributes? Finger millet is supposedly known for its health benefits, such as blood sugar lowering, cholesterol lowering, and anti-ulcer characteristics. But the anti-ulcer study they cite just noted that some of the areas with a low incidence of ulcers also happen to be eating millet, but that's far from establishing cause and effect. And the cholesterol lowering study they cite, it explores what happens when you take tail tendons from rats and soak them in sugar and millet. What? But the blood sugar lowering benefits are legit. Apart from the fact that millets don't contain gluten, which is good for the one or two percent of people with celiac disease or non-celiac gluten sensitivity, millets can also be exploited in the management of type 2 diabetes due to their blood sugar lowering properties. As reported by several studies on millets and millet-based foods in actual people, which we'll cover next.
