In the past, we released a video on how your childhood affects your love style. Now that you've identified what your core patterns are, we figured it would be helpful to offer insights on how to work with each love style. Whether your partner is prone to being a distant avoider or an anxious vacillator, know that working out your differences will only strengthen your relationship in the end. Here are five tips on how to work with your partner's love style. Charming, nice, and known as the stereotypical good students, these type of people actually grew up walking on eggshells. Their parents were most likely either overly critical, overly protective, or both. As a result, they have a hard time setting boundaries, saying no, and do their best to maintain peace, even at their own expense. In relationships, they don't deal with conflict well, and may try to avoid it altogether by resorting to bad habits, such as lying. To resolve issues with the pleaser, show them that it's normal for things to get messy, but instead of getting mad at them, let them know that you want their honest input, not something sugar-coated. Victims grew up in a violent, abusive environment. Consequently, they do not like to attract much attention to themselves and prefer to blend in the background. Often compliant and adaptable, it can be hard to tell whether a victim is suffering or not.  In order to work with a victim, provide the encouragement they lacked growing up, and set healthy, consistent habits to let them know they are safe with you. 3. The Controller Bossy, intimidating, and quick to anger, these type of people adapted a black and white mentality at a young age. Either you are controlled or do the controlling. In relationships, partners may find them rigid and selfish, with their expectations and threatening during breaking points. Inside, though, they're definitely hurting. When working with a controller, don't give them the upper hand, nor excuse their toxic behavior. Instead, meet in the middle. Let them know that you aren't the main source of their pain, but rather, it's the unresolved childhood memory they need to address. 4. The Vassilator Vassilators grew up in an unpredictable household. Fearing abandonment and yearning for stability, these individuals have felt misunderstood their whole lives. Still, they managed to remain idealistic, searching for their soulmate. They have to be careful, however, with their starry-eyed nature. Prone to venting, anger, and guilt, Vassilators will often be paralyzed by the problems they face. They may expect their partners to come up with solutions instead of standing on their own two feet. To work with a Vassilator, provide emotional support and listen to their frustrations. Ask them questions and help them reflect on potential solutions, but don't do the work for them. Over time, this will help them realize they are capable of more than they usually think. 5. The Avoider Known to be self-sufficient, these types of people value their space and freedom above everything. Since they come from a background where little to no support was offered, they learn to mature fast and take care of themselves. In relationships, common problems avoiders face include being dismissive of their partner's feelings, having difficulty providing empathy and creating too many boundaries to the point of being unreachable. To work with an avoider, never try to force ideas onto them or throw temper tantrums. This will only cause them to retreat or shut down even more. Avoiders can get easily overwhelmed if you're being too emotional or defensive. Give them time to cool off and attempt to problem-solve with them when the both of you are clear-minded.

So you can come on here and ask me any questions You want absolutely free. So that's pretty good deal So Ask me whatever you want today. I would like to talk a little bit about sponsorship Some of you guys want to start a YouTube channel and you want to have sponsors You would have people paying you or you want to get free products or whatever the case may be I'm going to tell you today how to do that. You don't have to be a big channel You don't have to have thousands of subscribers. I'm going to give you websites You can go to that are used strictly for this purpose to get sponsors So I think you're going to get a lot of benefit out of this today I think it's gonna be really useful to you if you want to make some money. What's going on Siddharth? You're in here today. Good to see you buddy We have people slowly trickling in.  I gotta get over there.  Everybody thinks that you got to have like thousands of subscribers And that you got to have all these views To actually make money and you don't I'm gonna give you some ways to do it today Brand new channel. You can go out there put up a few videos and start making money James says loud and clear and you betcha. I got a lot of trucking stories. I bet you do man I would love to talk to you about that and see what that is See my cinematic video was a hit. Oh cool. Sid Hartwell. What is the name of it posted in there? Let people go to your channel. This may give you some views on that video I'd like to see it too. All right over there and take it and check it out I definitely will and you could also be using what I'm gonna teach today About making more money online because that's what a lot of people and do they want to do some sponsorships and that type of thing So yeah, I'm gonna share that with you today. Let me pull up one of my screens here There we go. So I can see what I'm doing. So the first thing I will tell you guys is that when you start a YouTube channel You want to have like an established brand persona? Okay, that's what these companies are looking for They're looking for something that they can attach themselves to that is gonna help sell their products because of who you are So when you're starting your channel, I want you to understand you can't be all over the place Okay, you can't be doing, you know a blog one day about you traveling at the airport the next day You're out eating dinner and then the next day you're talking about fashion and the day after that you cook in a recipe You know that kind of life blogging thing While it is easy to do It's really hard to target any kind of audience because who's watching that, you know, who's watching? How do they know, you know, if they're targeting people who want to make money online or if they're targeting people who are working on Their homes or whatever none of that fits. So if you start a channel like that I think you can certainly do that, but your chances of getting sponsors are not gonna be good So here's what I want you to think about when you start a channel on YouTube I want you to think about what do you do? Okay, what do you do now on my channel? I teach people how to make money online. That's it. That's what I do. Okay, that's that's the thing I do the next question you want to ask yourself is Is exactly who is your audience? Okay, who are you targeting? And I'm checking out some of the comments here because I'm gonna go back and forth New York City Cinematic. Oh, cool. I want to see that said hard. So if that's your last video You know tell people to go to your channel check it out If that if you're interested in that guys, you know, go to the sit hearts channel and subscribe to him He's doing really well. So that's the first two things. What do you do and who is your audience? And the next thing I want you to think about is what are you selling and if you say to me? Oh, I'm not selling anything. I'm like, well, why are you doing a channel? What's the point? What's the point of dirt selling so everybody should be selling something in life?  So what are you selling? These are the things that a brand is gonna look for What are your core values? Okay, what are the things that are important to you? Now my core values are really quite simple You know, I make money online, but I also tell people that it's not easy It's simple, but it's not easy. You got to work hard. You got to put in time You know, you got to put in more hours than 40 hours a week So my message does not resonate with that a lot of people because they're like, well, I just want to make some Quick money and I don't want to work hard. My channel is not for you. That's what you want to do I'm not for you. I'm not your person and that's okay You can go out there and look for the pie in the sky and the you know Gold gold nuggets someplace else because I don't teach that I'm teaching you that you really got to put in the effort But I also teach you things that actually work and you can actually make money So what are you selling? What are your core values? What are the things that are really super important to you? And I do have some core values.  You got to work hard. You got to treat other people right You got to be honest. You can't fabricate stuff. Okay, so I have those core values So a brand that aligns with that would go along with that And the last thing I would ask you is if you had to ascribe to five human characteristics to your plan Your brand what would those be? What would those five human characteristics be? And I just listed some of mine because they also had to do with my core values But it is hard work and it is exercise and it is eaten right It is putting in the time and it is taking care of your customers All these things are really core values that all my company subscribe to and I have several of them By gaining this clear idea of what your brand persona is You're going to make it a whole lot easier for sponsors to figure out whether or not you're a good fit Okay, so the next thing they're going to look at is a similar target audience Okay, is your target audience going to be in line with them now? I get contacted by a lot of people that want to Sponsor my videos and they want me to you know talk about their product and I would say a good 99% of my just turned out I rarely rarely do any sponsorships Because I don't care about making money that way, but I know some of you do and that's why I'm doing this session today And a lot of them don't align, you know, like they're trying to send me something that is some investment Scam thing or something and they want me to talk about it. I don't know their company. I don't know their product I don't know their software. I'm not gonna do it. I'm just not gonna do it And they offered me decent money. I mean I had one the other day I turned down they went $1,000 for a 10-minute video and I was like, yeah, I don't think it's my thing It just wasn't my thing So then once you do after you figure out, you know who your target audience is you want to kind of drill down How old are your target audience? I was on a call yesterday with the Google ads rep And he was noticing one of my products that I was advertising and it had a high ticket price It was $997 and he says your target audience right here the people that are watching this video are 24 years old And at 24 a lot of them don't have a thousand bucks So we change that to a continuity that's $97 a month something that they could afford The next thing you want to ask is what are their interest? What are the things that they are interested in? What are the things that they want to do? That's the next thing that a brand is gonna want to look at, you know, what are these things? What are their spending habits and once again, I'll go back to that example from yesterday The spending habits of a 24 year old in a 50 year old are entirely different. Okay 24 year old doesn't have necessarily that much, you know expendable income What do they do for a living? You know, what's their job? You know, if you had to target your audience on your channel, what are they doing for a job? What's their living? Where do they shop, you know, where are the places they go to? That's the next thing you may want to ask And let me see here. I'm gonna check out some of these comments real quick for my old channel. We got a sponsors Got everything, but they did not send the product. Oh, well, that's not good I know my wife does a lot of sponsorship She does a lot of product reviews because she's in the pet industry So they send her all kinds of gadgets and harnesses and we she did one the other day with a The shower head thing that you attach and you Shower your dog that you can use it outside too, but of course she wants warm water for her dog So she's not gonna do it outside And she did a video of her You know washing our dog with this this cool gadget. I forgot what it's called just pause something I don't know. Check out her channel and you're gonna see that video So once you have this information you can take a look at the sponsors that are gonna be interested in you Is their audience similar to yours? If so, you made you a good fit now The next thing I'm gonna tell you is quality content So it can't just be you know bad lit bad audio rambling on of you talking about stuff Okay, that's not going to work. Nobody's gonna want to be a sponsor if that's the kind of videos you got going on so Another important thing is that sponsors look for good Quality okay, so if you don't have this good quality content They're not gonna want to align their brand with yours because it's gonna reflect back on their brand If you're not doing something that's really really good And if you have any questions about this guys, please put that in the chat section there ask me whatever you want to ask me in The chat section. I'll be happy to answer to you normally I charge for this stuff So guys, you know put your questions in there get these excuse me free answers to all yourself Now let's talk about how you connect with these sponsors. Okay. How are you really gonna find them? There is a good way to do it You can you can contact and direct but one of the best ways to do it is something called great vine And let me put that in there in case you can't Hear exactly what I'm saying go to great vine Great vine is advertised exclusively to youtubers. Okay great vine has reportedly paid out almost four million Dollars to YouTube creators Such as yourself, okay, just average people it's also used by large channels But mostly they market themselves to a small to medium channel So this is perfect for you guys who are on YouTube and you've got a small channel You're trying to get started great vine is a great place to go They have two types of advertising They've got product packages in exchange for reviews So, you know a brand is gonna send you a product you're gonna review that product And that's what you get you get their product and then they've got paid sponsorships, too If you just want to get paid money another good one is called content boulevard Content boulevard is another marketing and review platform. It caters exclusively to youtubers. That's all they do. Okay They believe that the true influence can't be bought. So they offer Only product packages in exchange for reviews rather than paid sponsorships They also require the youtubers who get free products in exchange for the reviews disclose it on their channel You got to be honest about it say I got this free product. They sent it to me. I'm doing a review I'm gonna give you an honest review to date They've got over 40 million views for their customers since their launch in 2015 now They've only been around what five going on six years now But you know, that's a decent amount of time So and the next one I want to talk to you about is called fame bit Let me put this in here Fame bit Okay, that's the next one. Hey guys keep putting your comments in there. I'm gonna answer those as I talk So don't worry about me not answering you. I will answer you and I'll get to everybody's comments in there We've got a smaller group today, which is fine We end up with the majority of reviews after I do these things I understand, you know, not everybody can show up at, you know, 9 o'clock in the morning in the middle of the week Just to listen to me. And that's fine. That's not a big deal. You know, there's a step here so fame bit is Like it's a easy to use sponsorship platform. It's for Instagrammers and youtubers So if you're an Instagram also, you can use fame bit I'm not a big Instagram user. So that's not a big thing for me But it's really a great option for youtuber Who's new to sponsorships and just wants to you know, just dive in and start doing stuff Sign-up process is really straightforward and simple And from there you can surf brain bits website for advertisements for companies that you're interested to work with Once you find one you can then proceed to bid for that particular project whatever that project is now Should you combine YouTube with other revenue streams? Well sponsorships are a great way to make money from YouTube, but they're not the only way to make money from YouTube So if your sole method of making money is through sponsorships, you should absolutely add other streams of revenue to your business So you can make more money So what I'd like to do is real quickly take a look at some of the more popular ways to make money from your YouTube account Okay, and the first one of course and I talk about this a lot is affiliate marketing Affiliate marketing is great. You can do the simple ones which would be You know go to Amazon find some products put the links below them And talk about some of those products in your videos Like you can go to the description of this video once it's done then the description will show up and On there you're gonna find a bunch of links to YouTube products that I use like this microphone You know not this bell not this with these lights over here. Some of these other things in my office, okay? I'll have links to those things in there affiliate marketing Is is when you place affiliate links in your YouTube videos? Through annotations or in the description part and these links contain a tracking code And then when the users click on them you end up getting paid if they buy that product Some of the most popular affiliate sponsorships for YouTube or Amazon, which I just mentioned, okay? Also skill share. I also use skill share. That's a big one target. So target. Yeah, you can use target You can go there and sign up points prizes and let me put those in there. This is another one Let's see here These are some more affiliate sites and I'm gonna stick those in here. I've got points This is hard to understand this one If I just say it points prizes oops Little error there my typing imagine that I got like me make a error on typing I can't type worth of darn and I've got Mo Vavi Vavi okay So I'll stick those in there affiliate marketing really can be a great way to make money guys You know, I make money every month off affiliate marketing My wife makes money off affiliate marketing If you've got a large audience and motivated to buy products you review Just be aware that the commission percentages are usually between five and fifteen percent. They're not huge So you either need to link to expensive products or encourage a lot of people to buy your product to make any significant money And then the next thing of course is ads This is something that you know, everybody talks about but that's not where the majority of your money is gonna come from We have ads that run on our videos, you know, I may be talking right now and boom an ad may pop up I don't know when they pop up But to get ads you're gonna have to have 4,000 hours of watch time in the previous 12 months and you're gonna have to have 1,000 YouTube subscribers, okay now Most youtubers only make a dollar to two dollars per thousand views because they're not targeted I'll tell you I checked this morning, and I'm making twenty one dollars per thousand views and that's my cut YouTube is charging thirty nine dollars per thousand views of my videos, which is huge. Okay, I'm really happy about that And that's all great, but depending on your channel, you're not gonna make that kind of money. You just not It it the the niche I'm in is more finance and making money And that is the highest paying niche there is no higher paying niche than that So the finance ones and credit and all that kind of stuff. That's where the money is being made But that doesn't mean you have to do that also keep in mind that you know Finance and might making money online is not one of the most viewed type of videos So you've got a kind of temper with that, you know a prank video is gonna get way more views than one of my videos It's gonna get but it pays way less.  That makes a big difference You could also create digital products or you can sell digital products I have digital products if you go in the description of this video You're gonna find some of my digital products there and you can certainly get those And some of the digital products are like software Maybe you're gonna do ebooks a photography like stock photos lightroom presets Now, maybe you've got videos that you sell movies tutorials Digital art graphics audio files all those things can be sold through your YouTube videos So that's an overview I wanted to let you guys know what you could make on YouTube and you know what you can do If you have any questions, let me know. I don't have a whole lot more for today So I'm gonna I'm gonna throw it back to you guys to ask some questions Do they reach out to you or did you reach out to YouTube? I don't reach out to YouTube You don't reach out to YouTube you reach out to some of these sites that I mentioned at the beginning Paul You may have missed that In the beginning, I listed some sites that you can go to that are sponsorship sites. I Don't reach out to anybody. I just don't because I don't really want to do Sponsorships that much. I'd rather put out content Sponsored content is okay and it's nothing wrong with it But I have a lot of people contact me with their products or their software or their Investment thing or whatever it is and you know, they'll want me to do a video It's just not something that fits. Well, I mean it does fit in my channel. I just don't want to do it Okay, I just don't want to do it.  I mean that's their business model That that sponsored video could be one that is all about that product or it could be something like Mikey Chen will Talk about VPN service in the middle of his video. It'll be like a little break for like, you know 15-20 seconds of his video But keep in mind in most cases They're gonna tell you they've got a link down there and if you click on their link That's their affiliate link. So on top of maybe getting paid to mention that product They're also getting a percentage of everybody who signs up Sam the cooking guy does the same thing He'll talk about some cooking, you know gadget or you know cooker or some you know pots and pans or whatever And he generally will record like a little 30-second video of that and he sticks that into One of his cooking videos one of its recipe videos so you can also do that When you do your content do you follow a plan for weekly content you will cover most definitely My stuff is all planned out the titles are all planned out. I know exactly, you know when videos are gonna hit Right now and all always I always had 10 videos scheduled every single day And that means there's one Monday through Friday For two weeks straight always 100% The thumbnails are all planned. I decided and I'll tell you my input on each video just so you know I record the video. I come up with the title for the video. Okay, so that's what I do Once I do that I take that raw footage and I cut out all the things I don't like in there And you know like spaces in there or ums or ahs or all that I tend to do that lots And then I take that video and I send it to my video editor I also send him what I want the thumbnail to say so he's got a title for the video He's got the video with you know the entire video there And yeah, and he's got the thumbnail and the title. Yeah in the video So then what he does is he takes that video and he uses b-roll and we use video blocks I should put a link for that. I am an affiliate for video blocks But we use video blocks for some b-roll if I'm talking about typing on a computer Maybe we show somebody typing on a computer if I'm talking about eating out Maybe we'll show a couple eating out or maybe we'll show me eating out at a restaurant I have some b-roll of me too So he'll put that stuff in there And then he'll also zoom in and zoom out as I'm talking to make emphasis about different points If it needs some music in there, he'll throw some music in there If it needs words on the screen, you know something I've said like you know, this is number one This is number two this number three he'll put those things on the screen as I'm talking about it And then he actually takes that video. He uploads it to YouTube He schedules it on a day in time. I tell him to and during the week It's always the you know same time, but it's always Monday through Friday So he'll schedule all those videos and then his job is complete outside of the fact that then he has to also Send a feed to Twitter. He also has to send one to my groups on Facebook and has to have it all posted there So he has like a checklist of places it goes to so that's basically what I do and what he Does Let's see you. What are you? Love Bobby at Flavie City. Yeah, what's Bobby Parish? He's pretty good. Yeah, he just moved down to Florida and how he links to Amazon store He has grown big on second year. He was persistent. Yeah, he lived in Chicago That's a really good good guy to bring up Paul. He lived in Chicago in a small apartment Him and his wife and he has baby And he would cook in that apartment. He would get a Trader Joe's and he would go to Costco Yeah, and these shopping things he would always read the labels and say what's in the labels You can tell I watched some of this and he would tell you what I was in there, but he made so much money He's building a really beautiful home in Florida. I think it's on the water right of the way He talks about I'm personally knowing but he does talk about it. It's got a really nice home there now And he's done very well. He's done very well. He wrote a good book That's done very well on Amazon. So his book is on Amazon. So yeah, give him a shout out Bobby Parrish at Flavie City. Yeah, he does a great job. What other cooking people do you follow? Well, gosh? Man a lot a lot You know what I'll do is let me pull up my list here Paul. I'll tell you some cool people to listen to and I like them. I think they're pretty good Let me get YouTube in here And I have a subscription to quite a few It's Sam the cooking guy is a great guy He quit a six-figure job. Well, yeah, you can make six figures a month on YouTube What why would you work a job, right? And he's really persistent the other thing he does Paul it works real well Because he'll do a live cooking and I don't have you probably watching if you follow him But on his live cooking he may stay on there an hour and a half two hours And he also has the little sponsor thing that I do here see a little dollar sign there If you click on that you can donate a dollar or five dollars or ten dollars or my favorite one million dollars to my channel No, but seriously you want to support the channel you like the content you can click there And let me look at my subscriptions here And you know I Paul I do Different kinds of food stuff like I look at Dane drops Dane drops is let me put this in here D. A. M. Oh No, D. A. Y. M D. A. Y. M Drops D. R. Oh He s And I didn't do Dane See D. A. Y. M. That's what I want Dane drops and Dane drops reviews fast food. He'll sit in his car and just review fast food He's really funny to watch. I think you would enjoy him And I do I'm all across the board I like Hiroki Teruda and Hiroki is let me put him in here. This guy's pretty cool Hiroki He had a Japanese restaurant and started doing YouTube Videos it made more money on his YouTube videos than he did his restaurant. So he closed the restaurant Restaurant did not have good reviews. I will say that but he is a very interesting guy He's another one. I like a lot Let's see here soup up recipes. I'll put that in there soup Recipes I like her a lot Who else we got who else we got I got so many in here guys And I like the ones where they go out and eat too all you can Vegas is a good one All you Vegas that's a really good one. I like that one Best ever food review, that's another good one best ever Food and you guys you can probably tell from what I'm doing here I watch a lot of YouTube videos And I think it's a good idea to watch YouTube videos if you're gonna be on on YouTube However, you want to be really careful Because you can end up spending all your time just watching them and not creating anything My goal every day is to always create more than I consume And that's true with everything See Claudia What's Claudia's last name? Lotto Yeah, she's good. All these are really good guys. Check them out. Check them out. I endorse them all Eric Conover is really good He's good. I've probably got too many to put in there First we feast. I mean gosh guys you guys I have you guys at first we feast first We feast is the hot wing thing where they interview people and that there's some great ones on there great celebrities go on there I think that's a good channel, of course flage city. I watch food wishes is a big one Like that one a lot Put one or two more in You kind of get the drift that I watch a lot of these Gordon Gordon Ramsay Gordon Ramsay. You gotta watch Gordon Ramsay, right? If you're gonna watch anything You gotta watch Gordon Ramsay. He's amazing. So that's a few. That's just a few of what I watch, okay But the point is guys You know you can make money on YouTube without having a big following without having a big audience I know a lot of you think oh my gosh I'm never gonna make any money because I don't have a thousand subscribers You don't need a thousand subscribers. You really don't. I mean, it's just not necessary To make money on YouTube if you want to make money from sponsorship. Yeah, you know, obviously you're gonna have to have that However, that's not where the majority of the money is made understand That's not where the majority of the money is made So I highly recommend you trying some of these things See I watch most at one and a half speed to get through them. Yeah, I do that too It depends on the subject matter I do that a lot with recipes because I want to get to the recipe and see what it is I don't do that if I'm doing it for entertainment Like if somebody's funny or something like that and I want to watch them because they're interesting I don't do it then Just because I want to enjoy it, you know, I want to I want to get more out of it So that's my overview for today guys. We're into this about 30 minutes now I think I'm gonna go ahead and shut it down unless you have any other questions anything you want to know If you're watching this afterwards, don't forget to subscribe also if you're watching right now Don't forget to subscribe.

Craft presents the Great Gilder Sleeves. Each week at this time from Hollywood, California, Craft presents Harold Perry as the Great Gilder Sleeves. Written by Leonard L. Levin. We'll hear from the Great Gilder Sleeves in just a moment. But first, let me tell you about a conversation I had the other day. A lady I know asked me, why do you speak of parquet margarine as a modern margarine? Well, here's what I said. Parquet is a modern margarine because it's so different from the margarine of a few years back. You see, parquet margarine is made by craft and craft is famous for its fine quality, delicious tasting foods. Yes, delicate appetizing flavor is the big reason why parquet margarine is different. It's grand both for table use and for cooking because it tastes so good. Another reason parquet margarine is different is that it's a reliable economical source of important vitamin A. Summer and winter, every pound of parquet margarine contains 9,000 units of vitamin A. And that's something every mother and housewife should be glad to know. Besides, parquet margarine is wonderfully wholesome and nutritious. Why it's one of the best energy food you can serve. But why not find out how deliciously good this modern margarine is yourself? Tomorrow, ask your dealer for parquet. P-A-R-K-A-Y. And now let's visit our friend the Great Gildersleeve. Good morning, Uncle Mark. Good morning. Oh, is that one of your Christmas shirts you're wearing? Oh, no, Marjorie. And that reminds me, next year I hope you're more careful about giving my sizes to Aunt Sylvia. She sent me a 13-shirt and a pair of 17-and-a-half socks. Oh, I'm sorry. But you know Aunt Sylvia? Yeah. Well, she still thinks I'm a baby. Yeah? She sent me a pound of gumdrops and a Mickey Mouse wristwatch. Very good. Oh, Bertie, are you busy? No, Miss Mark. What can I do? See if you can sweep up some of the pine needles under the tree. It's shedding like a $19 fur coat. That's the kind of coat I got from a gentleman of Queensland Christmas. Oh, that's too bad, Bertie. Oh, I don't mind so much. The friendship only lasted until the 4th of July, but the bunny coat didn't start to give out until long by Labor Day. Well, I hope you have better luck with your current boyfriend. Oh, yes, Mr. Gillsley. Kurt is right. That boy's a real live wild. He doesn't treat me to a course of ten lessons in rumbo dancing. Bertie, are you going to learn to rumbo? Oh, yes, ma'am. I've been rumboing for years, Miss Marge. I'm just going to improve my technique. Yes. Professor Guadalupe, that's my rumbo teacher's name, Stonewall Jackson Guadalupe. He says I'll be a fine rumbo dancer just as soon as I learn to put about twice as much energy and to half as much work. Yes, I can see what he means. What else did you get for Christmas, Bertie, besides this course in the Cuban can-can? Besides which? In addition to your rumbo coaching. Oh. Well, I received a bottle of the loveliest smelling lavender cologne and a box of the loveliest looking lavender face powder. Oh, yes. Oh, yes, indeed. I'm at my stunningness in lavender. Yes. Did they match that perfume you had? The last time you saw a Harlem? Yes. No, ma'am. This is a new kind called Chattanooga-woo-woo. Yes. Oh, God. Oh, Tuxedo Unction. Yes, Tuxedo Unction. Well, I guess it better get up these pine leaves with that. Yes. I just came from Piggy Bank's house, and you know what? No, what? He just gave me a... that is, he wants to give me a swell Christmas present. But Leroy, Piggy gave you a pair of roller skates for Christmas. Well, he feels it wasn't enough, so he wants to give me a swell puppy, and boy, is it a cute one. Well, if it's so cute and swell, Leroy, why is he giving him away? Because Piggy's father won't let him keep it. He won't? What's the matter with him? Oh, nothing's wrong with him. It's Piggy's father. He's got allergies. Yes. Ma'am, it's all right for me to have him, isn't it? Well, I don't know. He's a very big dog. Oh, tiny? Hey, he's just the right size for this house. Oh, a two-story dog. What kind is he, Leroy? Or brown, white spots. What do you say, Uncle Morse?  A boy dog. How about a dog? Well, I've always thought that a dog is a wonderful companion for a young man of your age, Leroy. And he's solo-eyed. Uh-oh, here comes more work for me. No, Bertie, this dog is going to be Leroy's responsibility. You ought to take care of him yourself, young man, understand? You bet. You better, because I know from experience when a dog comes snooping around the kitchen for a bite, it ain't particular what it takes that bite out of. Don't worry, Bertie.  Yes, I recall the dog I owned when I was Leroy's age. Good old Hector. I can remember when he was a pup. What kind of a dog was he, Uncle Morse? A Hector was a pug dog.  Yeah. Uh, we had great times together. Hector and I almost broke my heart when I lost him. Was he run over, Uncle? No, Marjorie. He got too big to ride and I traded him for a bicycle. Yeah. There's nothing like a little canine pal. Oh! Oh, goodness! Oh, Marjorie, what's going on in the... Canada, D. What? I don't know until I sold you on the idea. Yeah. Nope. I think we better investigate this idea of yours, Leroy. Come on. Sure. And wait till you see it. He's the cutest pup you ever saw. Oh, really? Oh, my goodness. He's chewing up all my old clothes. Here, tiny. Come on away from there. You want to get sick? What? Here, tiny, here.  He gods look at the size of tiny. He must be a great day. What? The other half is St. Bernard's. St. Bernard's?  Look at him. The way he goes at it, you think meat grows on trees. You'll be getting another 10 pounds on... Yes. Not until I arrange for a wholesale rate at the butcher shop, Leroy. Get down, tiny, down. Every time he hears me mention butcher shop, he'll be like, look at my face, tiny. He'll grab his tail, Leroy, before he knocks me over. Get down, doggie. Come on. Yeah, thanks.  Every time he hears me say, B-U-T-C-H-E-R, he wants to go chop-chopping. You should have seen us down at the M-E-A-T market. What happened? I tried to train him to carry the package home in his mouth. Didn't it work? No. Tiny thought it'd be easier to carry it home in his tummy. Well, I guess you can't teach a new dog old tricks. Say, it's getting cold out here. Let's go inside. Yes, all right. Come on, tiny. You can sit beside the fireplace. You promise not to chew the rug for dessert. Don't keep that door open so long. Please, Mr. Gale, sleep. This cold weather is hard on us tropical folks. That's all right, Bertie. Yeah, come on, tiny. Come on. Quit sniffing on that icebox, dog. Tiny, this way. No, no. Keep away from the stove. I guess he's admiring your cooking, Bertie. Well, he can admire till he's blue in the face, Leroy, but he ain't going to get none of that roast. I'm not cooking myself to a shadow of a hot stove or no truck horse of a great Bernard. Yes, look at there, Bertie. He loves you. Get away from me, dog, before I smash you with this skillet. But he's just playing. Well, if he takes one step closer, he's going to be playing a dog hop. Come on, tiny. Let's go into the living room. The living room? You going to turn that into a candle? Oh, no, Bertie. We'll be careful. Carefully, says. What does 150 pounds of giddy puppy know by being careful? I don't get excited, Bertie. You just take care of the kitchen department. This dog is Leroy's responsibility, and I've got a feeling in my bones. Oh! I shouldn't have mentioned bones. Get him off of me, Leroy. Hey, grab his collar. Come on, tiny, this way. Come on, Bertie. Yeah.  How do you do that, Uncle? Well, you make him understand you're the master, Leroy.  Oh, his tail's rusted off the end table. Sweep it in the fireplace, Leroy, before Bertie sees it. Okay. Gee, be careful, tiny. Yes, be careful, tiny. Your tail will wag your room into a shambles. Gee, maybe we can teach him to wag his tail up and down instead of from side to side. I don't think it would work, Leroy. Why not? Well, I'm afraid that would go against the grain. If he's only smart, he's a mimic. Now, come on, tiny.  Well, not over there. Keep away from that Christmas tree. Look out. Look, clumsy, fumble-putted hounds. Get him out of here quickly before he does any more damage. Yes, Uncle Morse. Come on, tiny. He's going to go out. Custom to our furniture, Uncle Morse. Yes. Well, the furniture will hold out that long. Help me get this tree back on his feet. Oh, I bet I know what it is. Please. Gee, Bernie, what you doing standing in the sink? It's that dog of yours, Leroy. Look. Uh-oh. What did he do? He just chewed up the roast I had ready for dinner and now he's drooling at me. I know I'd welcome a nice big, comfy, warm piano box if I happen to be a dog. On a night like this, thank goodness I'm not. But don't you think he'll get lonesome? Lonesome? Not if he keeps howling like that, he won't. But suppose somebody complains. Let him complain. I've had a hard day trying to cope with that baby buffalo and now I'm ready for bed. Yeah. I'll probably have a nightmare and which tiny takes me for a walk, drag me along at the end of a leash. Oh, that'd be awful. I know it. That's what he did earlier this evening. Well, good night, Leroy. Gee, I wonder what that can be about at this hour of night. You guess. Hello? Who? Yes, this is Mr. Gildersleeve. He's one of the neighbors. Uh-huh. What dog are you talking about? No, it's my nephew's. No, it isn't my nephew. It's his dog. What? No, I won't take him in the house. I'm training him. Oh, yeah? I'd like to see you. Here's that song.  I don't want you to go, Uncle Morse. It's neither here nor there, Leroy. Let's go to bed now. Oh, why did Alexander Graham Bell have to do this to me? Hello? Look, Mr. I've had enough out of you. If you don't stop bothering me, I'm going to call the police. Oh, this is the police. Well, hello, Sergeant. What can I do for you? Oh, sure. I'll be glad to. Right away, Sergeant. Goodbye. Leroy, I've changed my mind about Tiny. You run along outside and bring him in. That'll keep him quiet. Oh, boy. Can I keep him in my room, Uncle Morse? You didn't think I'd let him sleep with me, did you? Oh, hello, Marjorie. Hello, Uncle Morse. Look what I found under the rug in my room. Three bones and an old corset. Oh, more of Tiny's work. Yes, we also ate all the flowers I received for Christmas. Two pairs of silk stockings and almost a pound of my bath soap. That dog did that? Oh, he isn't a dog. He's an ostrich. Now, now, my dear, we must have patience. Oh! Is that you, Leroy? Yeah, I'm Andrew. You're fine. Good night, Leroy. Please, I don't. Good night, Mar. Good night, my dear. I'm going to bed myself. The deal is tired as last month's lettuce. What's that? Who's there? Who's that under the bed? Is that you, Tiny? Oh, my, we always seem to meet.  Get out from under that bed, Tiny. Get up from there. No, no, don't stand up, you moose. Crawl out. Tiny, down. This is the last straw. I'll be dog-gone if this dog isn't gone tomorrow. Of course I'm up. I didn't sleep a wink all night. How are you feeling, Uncle? Terrible. That dog curled up under my bed and then the bed curled up. He didn't give me a chance to shut an eye. Did you try counting sheep? I did, but Tiny kept chasing him around the room. See, that's too bad. That's all right. We're going to take this poison pup back to Piggy Bank's house today. But Uncle Moore... I won't hear a word, Leroy. I've got a splitting headache from lack of sleep. What time is it, anyway? See, Uncle Moore is half past eleven already. What? Out of my way, Leroy. I've got a nine o'clock appointment. Again? Yet. No wonder Piggy gave him to you. Tiny's appetite is enough to break the banks. In fact, we've got to find someone to palm him off on before he eats his out of house. See who it is, Leroy. Sure, Uncle. Say we are, Tiny. Yeah, he will. It's Doug Huffer. Come on in, Doug. Well... Good afternoon, folks. Well, look at the beautiful dog. Christmas present, Leroy. Yeah, isn't he a hum-dinger? Hello, there, old boy. How you tell, huh? Good old dog is sweet, old pup.  Don't you pay any attention to him, old boy.  Oh, you do, eh? Well... Ah, yes. Did I say something wrong? Better be careful, Judge, or we'll let him take you home. Why, particularly death to have him. How about it, old man? Want to come home with me and bite into a nice big juicy steak? Oh, now you've done it. Get this element off of me. Put that out, you scoundrel.   Stop! You're here! Call off your... Now, let me give you a hand-off, hooker old chap. Don't you hooker old chap, me, Gildersleeve. That's a dangerous dog you got there. You're telling me. He attacked me entirely without provocation. We have plenty of provocation, Judge. You mentioned S-T-E-A-K. Yes, Judge. This is smart dog. You got to spell out F-O-O-D. If you can't pronounce what you're talking about. Gee whiz, I guess the judge won't take him now, uncle. So that was your game. Trying to stick me with his hamburger home. Get away from me, tiny. I'm glad I caught on in time. What do you mean you caught on? Well, you couldn't catch on to a hippopotamus with a plunger in each hand. Oh, I couldn't, huh? Look who's talking. Dr. Morton P. Gildersleeve, the Summerfield version of Dumbo. One more ill-bred remark, Judge Hooker. And the governor will be up all night trying to pick your successor. Oh, I'm going.  Just about 97% hot air. Is that so?  Say, what's the other 3%? Pure unmitigated gall. Yeah, thanks very much.   That's enough. That's enough. I'm leaving. Goodbye, Leroy. Are you sure you won't take Tiny, Judge? I wouldn't have him if you gave me the Mississippi River and threw in your uncle, besides. Goodbye, Tiny. And if Gildersleeve doesn't feed you right, buy him. Yes, goodbye, Judge. And the next time we meet... Down, Tiny, won't find me. I bet he wouldn't have given the dog a good home anyway. Oh, Mr. Gildersleeve, Eggman wants his money. Eggman? Oh, yes. Send him in, Bertie. Now, hold on to Tiny, Leroy. He probably likes eggs, too. Come right in, sir. How much is the bill this week? $2.53. That includes the chicken. It doesn't matter, Tiny. Don't you like chicken? Say, that's mighty fine looking dog. You got there, Sonny. I'm forgetting to have my doubts. Oh, yes. Isn't he a fine-looking dog, sir? I suppose you have a nice farm where a dog can romp to its heart's content. That's to eat no trouble with the fussy neighbors. No, Aint had to fall in love with the neighbors since, let me say, I guess it must have been in the April of 1912. I remember it's clear today because Brian was running for the first third time. Later, Lum, later. Did I hear you express admiration for this imposing canine of yours? No, but I certainly like that dog. Pardon me. Reminds me of a hound a friend of mine gave me in 1906. Was it in 1907? No, 1907 was the year of the panic. I got married that year, too. And what a year. Oh, yes, twerk. We're 07. Got the dog for wedding presents. Yes, a dog makes a wonderful wedding present. I bet you'd like to have one like this to guard your chickens at night. No, I don't need a dog for that. I know I ain't had a henrush robbery since the summer of 1922. Or was it 19... Come come, 22 is good enough for me. Do you think you could use this nice dog? Well, certainly good. I need companionship. It gets kind of lonesome for me up at my place. All the children have grown married and got kids of their own. And scattered to the forewinds, I suppose? No, they're all sleeping in each one fighting up at my place. See, that's why I need companionship. Well, we find that city life is a little too confining for tiny here. We're looking for a good home out in the country for him. You'll take good care of him, won't you, Mr. Eggman? Of course I will. Yes, well, here's your money for the eggs.  Come on, nice doggie. Gee, Auntie wants to stay with you. He does? Let me see. Oh, I know how we can get him to like you, Mr. Eggman. Suppose you tell me how you dispose of the livestock you raise on your farm.  That's right. Now, you start toward the door. How about the cows? Oh, make chippy, smoke tongue, and liver sausage. Certainly peaceful around here since we became dogless. Hand me the newspaper, William Marjorie. Here you are, Uncle. Thanks. Local beauty to give kisses with each defense bond purchase. Think I'll go downtown tomorrow and might buy a few bonds for investment purposes, of course. What's this? Marjorie, here's a picture of that dog, Tiny. Tiny? Are you sure? Sure, I'm sure. There can't be two dogs that look that hungry. Listen to this. Has anyone seen this dog? Lost, strayed, or stolen from the home of Cecil P. Upshaw, president of the Summerfield National Bank. A valuable young Saskatchewan moose hound. Reward offered for return. Oh, my goodness. Leroy! Look at this paper. That dog is Tiny. We've got to get him back to Mr. Upshaw. Oh, gee. Yes, that reward. Forget the reward. You realize that a lot of people know we had that dog? We've got to return that reindeer spaniel before we're arrested for dogmapping. Yeah? And we better go back. That's right. Get your cap and coat. Where does he live? I don't know. Do you mind? The Eggman? No, no. He's been coming here every Thursday for the past 10 years, but he never said where he lives. Does anybody know his name? No, I don't. Neither do I. Well, come on anyway, Leroy. Okay, but where are we going? We'll just have to drag all the chicken coops in the countryside for that bird. The bird. That reminds me. Uh, Birdie! Yes, Mr. Gillsleeve? Do you know where the Eggman lives? Yes. Oh, fine. Where? On the chicken farm. I know that. But where? Do you happen to know his name? Oh, just a second. I figure I have it, right?  Don't forget to rove a coat, Leroy. Oh, I found it, Mr. Gillsleeve. I just looked on the side of the carton of eggs he brought today. That was using the old beam. What is his name? His name is Great Ace-Elect. I never saw such a narrow road in my life. Oh, look, Uncle Moore. Here comes a load of hay. Make a wish. Okay. I wish there was room for us to pass it. All right, bossy. Uh, let us through the pasture, please, bossy. Well, sound up. That ain't no bossy. That's a boom. It is? Whoa! Just this one barn, Leroy, if I'm willing to call it quits. Uh, hello. Oh, excuse me. Uh, what is it? We're looking for a man who... Why, it's you. Yeah, hello, Mr. Eggman. You don't remember that dog we gave you this afternoon? That big dog named Tiny? You're... You're... Well, we've got to have it back. That's why... And now we must return it. I'm sorry, folks, but I can't do that. You can? Why not? Because that's their dog of urine peaked up and ran away. That's why... Whoa! I'm not to wake anybody, including me. What do you mean, Uncle? I'm practically walking in my sleep. Oh, am I tired? I certainly was one wild goose chase, Uncle Moore. Yeah, I know it, Leroy, and your poor tired, weary old Uncle apologizes. Skip it, Uncle. It was partly my fault. Leroy, if we wanted to stand here and blame ourselves, we'd never get to bed. Good night. Good night. Yeah. I don't think I'll bother to take my clothes off. This is my overcoat and hat and shoes. I haven't the strength to get the coat off. This is the shoes and the hat. It won't hurt me to sleep in my hat for once. Or my shoes. Skip. What's that? Great jumping jeeps. Tiny's come home to roost. Come on, Tiny. Gee, Uncle Morton, Mr. Upshaw has a big place, hasn't he? Yes, very beautiful grounds, too. In just a second, I'll ask this gardener. I say, my good man, where can I find Mr. Cecil P. Upshaw? Hi, Mr. Upshaw. What can I do for you? Oh, excuse me. My name is Gilda Sleeve. I brought a dog that I think is yours. Leroy, bring Tiny here. Oh, there's Tiny. Take it easy. Yeah. Well, it is my dog. Hey, good. Oh, thank you very much. Where's he been? That's too big a subject to go into now, brother. Someday I'm going to write a book about it.  What do you mean by running away from home? I'm greatly indebted to you, Mr. Gilda Sleeve. Please accept my sincere thanks. Gee, Uncle, no reward. Yep. Be quiet, Leroy. I didn't come here for any reward. Oh, yeah. The reward of the newspapers. If you'll wait where you are, I'll be right back. Come on, boys. Yeah. Goodbye, Tiny. Yeah, goodbye, Tiny. Say, Uncle, I wonder what the reward will be. Huh? I bet he'll give us a lot of money out of his bank. Oh, no, Leroy. The most you can ever expect from a bank is a new calendar. I won't be surprised if we get one left over from 1941. I'm sorry I took so long, Mr. Gilda Sleeve, but here's your reward. Eh, what? Come here, boy. What? Did you mean that after all the trouble we had to bring your glass of big beagle back, you're returning him to us? Oh, no. This isn't Tiny. This is his sister, Twisting. Oh! Get down. The great Gilda Sleeve will be with us again in a few minutes. But right now, here's a timely New Year's resolution that's not hard to keep, and that's to cut down your food budget and do it in a very pleasant way. Here's how. Start using tomorrow. Delicious Parquet Marjoram made by Kraft. Yes, using Parquet Marjoram is one sure way to economize on food without sacrificing flavor or food value. You see, Parquet Marjoram is no ordinary marjoram. It's a delicious tasting modern marjoram that's rich in food elements your whole family needs. Yes, you like Parquet's delicate, satisfying flavor, whether you use it at the table for pan-frying or as a flavor shortening for baking. And you'll appreciate the fact that Parquet Marjoram is such a nourishing, wholesome energy food and a reliable year-round source of Vitamin A. That's why economizing with Parquet Marjoram is no hardship but a mighty pleasant way to cut down your food budget. So in 1942, resolved to try wholesome, nourishing Parquet Marjoram, the modern marjoram that tastes so good, yet costs so little. But remember, don't just ask for marjoram. Ask for Parquet Marjoram, spelled T-A-R-K-A-Y. And so, Marjoram, when we told Miss Rupture that we didn't want another dog, he gave us this. Oh, isn't that a beautiful basket of fruit? Yes, it's got just about every kind you ever heard of. Yes, aren't those grape slushes? Oh, and that pineapple, so ripe and ready to eat. Personally, I like the bananas the best. Yes, all in all, it's the most beautiful calendar the Summerfield National Bank has ever put out. Happy New Year, folks. Good night. Yeah. Original music heard on this program was composed and conducted by William Randall.

This is the national broadcasting company.


All right, so Katrina, we've got this formative assessment sample here of the money entry card. When you design this, what was the key intent that you were really looking for? What skills and understandings were you trying to check or elicit from students? So we use the evidence of learning from the future lessons to see if the kids could identify Australian notes and coins if they could order them, compare money amounts and also look at complex and simple change. I mean, throughout the questions we looked at misconceptions as well especially in the ordering part where we would put a note that is lower. We've got a $5 note here and a $20 note but we put that before the 20 to see if they could identify that properly and then order them. In the first question we got the students to identify Australian coins and notes. We didn't put all of them in but obviously if they could identify majority of them it would tell us that they're okay with that. The second question was ordering coins and notes. Again, we didn't put all the notes and coins in. And then in the third question we got three money amounts with a mixture of notes and coins. They had to add those money amounts up individually and then circle the amount that had the most, the largest total. And then they had to explain why. That's where obviously a lot of the students have trouble with the kids. So that white question is where we were really focused on in question three. And then from four to five we looked at change and looking at a word problem. Okay, so thanks Katrina. So we've heard the key intent that you're really looking for in this task. So in relation to that, I see you've all got your formative assessment samples in front of you. How did your students go with the task? The pleasing part was the first part that they could recognize coins and notes. So that showed us that their understanding there was better than we anticipated. Can you just explain to everyone else here what you're holding up there for? Well, we just basically marked our entry card for the money assessment to find out what they knew and what they didn't know just to give us some insight into where we could actually focus our teaching. So in other words, they can, as Katrina said, they can recognize the notes and coins and they're able to actually add money quite well on the whole. So you developed the spreadsheet. Yes, and then we took the identifiers here. The quarter-scripter. The quarter-scripter and just made a simple spreadsheet so you can quickly look at where some students are still having difficulty. What pleased me the most was the amount of green in the first part, but the evidence showed that they still need a lot more work on giving change and counting on money. So you're identifying giving change and counting on money with two areas for your class? Yes. Other teachers, did you have a similar story to Phil's or different? I found that most of my students were fine, same as Phil, with identifying money and where a lot of them were able to actually add the money to find a total but where they came in was with the multi-step, so when they had to actually give change or find two totals and the difference, that's where they came undone. Anybody else? Do you want to have a different story similar to Adam's and Phil's with the multi-step and the calculating change? I was just going to say a common problem if kids did get pulled up in the simple questions at the start was reading the questions correctly, like ordering coins from smallest to largest value they wrote from largest to smallest value. So in the sense, they're still ordering the coins, but as you say, they're a bit of a request. I really don't know. Yes, so it's ordered, but... And the same thing in the multi-step it pointed out, do the kids have the right strategy to attack that question? Can they do a vertical algorithm? Or how? Counting on. Yeah, I think that thing about counting on came through that they needed a lot more practice. So have you had an opportunity yet to give feedback to your students for this task? If so, could you share with us how you did that and what was successful? And if not, what might you do in terms of giving feedback back to your students? Certainly. One bit of feedback as they did it, they had to highlight their tricky question. So it gave us feedback that even if they got it right, this is what they found hard. And then in giving them feedback, you could say, this was a question you found difficult. And did you do that individually, Alice, or did you group them together? Individually, they had to highlight. So they're all different. Some kids put the simple questions. Some of them found just the multi-step majority have put the harder questions, the multi-step questions down the bottom. Anyone else have anything they want to share on that? Similar to Alice? Yes, similar to Alice. We just marked it as a class. We even discussed it. And then the children were able to self-evaluate. And basically, green was for good. Orange, yellow showed us where I'm having difficulty. I need to... They chose those colors. They chose those colors. Yes, they made the decisions of what they would want. Yes, not right or wrong. But I'm happy with this. I need more development or help here. So let's want to focus on that bit now that Theodore has brought up in his orange, the development, the improvement. So the key question I want to ask you is, what are the next steps for improvement for these students? You identified it's the counting on with change. How are you going to address that? How are you going to give students that feed forward information of their next steps for improvement? Well, I think for my class, we've done a lot of visual work and a lot of written work. But I think what they really need is their hands on, actually using money, counting on, actually verbalizing the strategy to themselves as you would counting change in the shop. They need more practice with that. They know money really well. They think out loud as well. Yes, thinking out loud. Thinking out loud. That's right. Lots of modeling. Lots of modeling. Really warm-ups. Yes, real-world type examples. Warm-ups. Yes. I think getting in concrete materials really helped my students in counting on or counting up. There are still a few that just, you know, money is a hard concept. They just couldn't grasp that concept. But they did a lot better when they had that concrete material. So, looking at this task as a whole, so what is the key feedback to you for your teaching of this unit on money over the next few weeks that you have with your kids? I think we can fast-track it a little bit because they've got the basic understanding there. So, there's no need to cover that ground. We can spend more time focusing on this strategy of giving change, counting on, counting back and developing those skills. And understanding that, you know, five-twenties make a dollar and all those different ways of making a dollar. I'm just saying that they have to yet have different ways of creating the same money.


Dr. Kleiman, why is colonoscopy screening important? Colon cancer screening is important because it reduces colon cancer. We find polyps early before they've become tumors and remove them, so they never have a chance to grow into tumors. And who should be screened? So the National Guidelines state that every person should be screened without symptoms starting at the age of 50 or 45 if you're African-American. And then if you have a negative colonoscopy, the screening should be repeated every 10 years until age 80 when screening should be stopped for people who have no symptoms. What are some of the risk factors of colon cancer? So by far the most common risk factor is the presence of polyps or prior colon cancer. Family history is important, especially if you have a first-degree relative under the age of 60 with colon cancer. There's also new data that people who eat a lot of red meat are at increased risk of developing colon polyps and cancer. What about age and that sort of thing? Yeah, age is also important. People who are over the age of 50 have an increased risk of colon cancer and the risk goes up as you get older. If people have a family history, should they consider genetic testing? So people who have a family history really depends on the age that their family member had it, whether they're a first-degree relative, like a mother, father, or sister, or brother, or son or daughter. If they're under the age of 60, screening should start at age 40 and then be repeated every five years. If they have a second-degree relative, like a grandparent or an aunt or uncle, they should tell their doctor, but it may not lead to an early screening. I've heard people say that the first symptom of colon cancer is no symptom at all. Is that right? That's true. Oftentimes, colon cancer presents with no symptoms. Some people do experience bleeding, weight loss, abdominal pain, or a change in the stool, for example, smaller, more narrow stools, or any disruption in their bowel habits. March is colon cancer awareness month. Why is it important to educate people about colon cancer? Well, it's important to educate people about colon cancer because this is a preventable disease and people have to be aware that there is an excellent test for screening and that if we find people early, we can prevent colon cancer from ever happening and we can prevent it from spreading if it does occur. Catching it early makes a big, big difference because it can be removed. Dr. McCran, what can a patient expect during a screening? So, during a screening colonoscopy, the patients are sedated with medications and then a flexible fiber optic scope is inserted into the rectum and the entire colon is examined. And there's anesthesia for this process? Yes, yes. So there are different types of anesthesia depending on underlying medical conditions or the patient preference. But in general, we aim to have the experience be painless and overall a positive experience. One of the things that people sort of fear most about a colonoscopy is the prep. Has the prep gotten any better over the years? So at Mercy Gastroenterology, we have a unique preparation using a combination of dolcolax and milk of magnesia. We also use the standard preparations, but if we have found at Mercy Gastroenterology that our patients are better able to tolerate the preparation with less side effects. During a test, what are you looking for? During a screening colonoscopy, I'm looking for polyps. Polyps are pre-cancerous growths that can over time turn into cancer. The key is to remove those polyps before they have the opportunity to turn into cancer. And are they removed during the screening? Yes, they are. And what happens if you find something that can't be removed during the screening? So if a lesion or a very large polyp or heaven forbid, a cancer is found during the screening colonoscopy, we typically take biopsies that are then analyzed to confirm our suspicion. Sometimes then we'll inject some tattoo dye, so if that patient needs to have surgery to have that lesion removed, the surgeon is able to find it. And what are the side effects, if any, for a screening test? The most common side effects that patients experience are some crampy gas pains. Typically those are relieved after simply passing gas. Air is put into the colon during the screening test. They may be tired for the rest of the day, but typically people go back to work the following day. And what should they do after the test? Anything special they need to do? The major thing they need to do is just pass the gas that was put in during their screening test. And we typically advise patients just to go home and relax, they can start eating normally. And if somebody has a clean reading, what do they do then? How long do they wait until their next screening test? So the national guidelines are to wait 10 years in between screening colonoscopies as long as you don't have risk factors for colon cancer. So in a patient who has a family history of colon cancer, they're screening maybe every 5 years instead of 10 years. If polyps are found on your first screening exam, again, that might be a time when we shorten the interval in between tests. Are there different screening guidelines for women and men? No, the screening guidelines for colon cancer are the same for both men and women. It's very important for women to undergo screening colonoscopies starting at age 50, just like men. Sometimes the age at which screening begins can be lowered if there is a family history of colon cancer. And it's important to tell your physician about a family history of colon cancer. What are some of the features here at Mercy Gastroenterology at Casco Bay that you feel are important for patients to know about? At Mercy Gastroenterology, we have a very personalized setting. There's only one physician working at a time. Thus, the number of patients are low. You get a lot of personalized attention. And it's less of a sterile hospital-like feeling, which patients really seem to appreciate. What's the biggest misconception people have about colon cancer? The biggest misconception about colon cancer is that it's not anything that they can do anything about. People feel like it is either going to happen or not happen, and that's a terrible misconception. If you follow the guidelines, which is having a colonoscopy starting at age 50, earlier if you have a family history, or any time if you have symptoms like bleeding or change in your bowel habits or anemia, you can prevent colon cancer. Early detection equals the best outcome. Yes. And what sort of lifestyle changes can people make to help them perhaps prevent colon cancer? Things like reducing the intake of red meat is important, or cutting it out altogether, having a healthy diet with lots of whole grains, root vegetables, and avoiding anything that might increase the risk of all cancers like smoking cigarettes. If people want more information about the Mercy Hospital gastroenterology program and the screening, where can they go for more information? Visit our website at mercy.org or they can call us directly at<PHONE_NUMBER> and we'd be happy to talk to them formally or informally about screening and when they should have it and whether they need to see us in the office first.

What's going on guys? It's your boy DPJ here today with another Destiny video and today I have some exciting news for everyone waiting to know about the next adventure we will be getting with Destiny. The Bungie Weekly Update has just landed and if you guys do want to check it out I will link it in that video description. Now the weekly update starts off with a following statement. This week at Bungie we are preparing to reveal your next adventure. You are invited to learn all about the next threat that you will confront as Guardians. Now they will reveal what our next Destiny adventure is via their stream which is Twitch TV and Bungie and you'll find that link below also. Now the reveal stream which comes Thursday the 9th of June 10 a.m. Pacific which you may want to check against your own time zone. I believe it's around 6 or 7 p.m. UK time though so that's next Thursday we will be seeing what they have in store for us as our next adventure so for damn sure don't forget to tune in.  Me personally though I think it will be another event they reveal and it won't be the next major expansion. I mean I could be wrong and it could be the next major expansion that they do show up. I just feel it's a little too soon to do that and if anything we will see a glimpse of the next major expansion at E3. The Bungie reveal stream next Thursday in my opinion will showcase some sort of event but could this event be the speculated rise of iron which everyone thinks is the next major expansion. Like I did speculate about this a couple of weeks back stating that while everyone believes it is the next major expansion I speculate that the rise of iron could be the next event. Who knows maybe I'm right maybe I'm wrong either way like I said the reveal stream in my opinion I believe it won't show the next major expansion. Now a lot of people believe spiral racing is returning and while I would love to see it return we need more than just a few tracks to race on for a week. We need content that will fill the gap from now till September when the next major expansion does drop. But let me know your thoughts on this down below in that comment section. Either way people are excited to see what they're having store for us next Thursday. What are you hoping to reveal? The next event if there is an event or the next major expansion. Let me know down below in that comment section. Thanks for stopping by as always. Hope you enjoyed the video and I'll catch you guys on that next one.


Students, we are discussing merger and acquisition phases and in that we are discussing about the HR implications. In this topic, we are going to talk about the HR implications of the implementation phase. You can see that this is the fourth and final stage of the MNA integration process. This is the implementation phase. In implementation phase, the entire plans which have been chalked out in the previous phases are implemented into action. Now in the implementation phase, the responsibilities of the HR department and the HR challenges faced by the organization will obviously evolve into new stage. What you would need to be doing is managing ongoing change, especially cultural change. You have looked at the differences in culture. You have in the integration planning phase, you have chalked out the strategy for cultural integration. Now you are in the implementation phase, you will be implementing those strategies and trying to smooth out the process of change, particularly the cultural change. You would be managing employee communication according to the plans that you have chalked out, how the communication is going to take place, whether you are going to convert into electronic communication or you are going to convert into manual communication, although you were communicating electronically in your more developed country. That is going to be the communication strategy and implementing that communication strategy is going to take place in this phase. Then in this phase, the HR people would be concerned about advising management on dealing with people issues. People issues are going to come up. You are mixing cultures, you are hiring new people, you are letting go of people. It is going to be a pretty dramatic phase and people issues are definitely going to come up and a number of people would be finding themselves anxious, insecure, they would be finding themselves with a lack of orientation, not knowing what to do. Do as HR managers would be responsible for advising others how to manage these people's issues. Then another aspect is to align your HR policies, particularly the total rewards policy in your compensation packages. You need to align your HR policies because earlier you are two companies working separately with different compensation packages, with different reward packages. You need to align all that, particularly in many cases you would see that there would be tax differences. People expatriates coming to work in your country, they would be having issues of how they would be managing their pay. Someone would want to get paid in their parent country, someone would want to get paid right there, they would have to deal with the tax issues. You need to align that what they are getting in compensation is aligned between the two companies. Then you would be monitoring the process of organizational and people-related integration activities. The HR is not just concerned about the integration of HR because HR human resource is the main resource of the organization and you need to be careful that the organizational integration is based on human integration and therefore the human resource department would be specifically responsible for monitoring this process. Then you need to capture the synergies of human resource. You need to ensure that the two cultures coming together, it is creating a synergistic effect which means that the combination of the two is greater than the addition of the two. That means that it is rewarding more for both the organizations by coming together. What are the synergies which are being exploited by bringing together the two companies and particularly in the HR arena? What is the benefit of this? What is the synergy that is being achieved? How are people working in a better way? How are people working together? How are you getting synergy in the organization? You need to ensure that. Then another very much important aspect of HR department is to make this entire process a source of learning. You have merged or you have acquired two cultures, you have integrated tasks. You entered a new market. How did you do that? You need to make it as a learning example. What are the reasons that it was successful? What were the problems? What were the issues? What were the reasons for success? What were the reasons of lag? What were the reasons of, for example, if there is failure, what are the reasons for that? That has to become a source of learning for future mergers and acquisitions, not just in your organization but for other organizations as well. What made a merger acquisition successful? The HR department is responsible for analyzing this entire process of success or in other words, the process of failure. We have to make it a source of learning. These are the various different activities and HR implications for the phase of implementation in a merger or acquisition.


The complexity of lignin and hemicellulosegmentation has been known since the middle of the 19th century. Studies have confirmed that all lignin units in coniferous species and up to 66% of lignin moieties in deciduous species are bound to hemicelluloses or cellulose molecules in lignin carbohydrate complexes, LCC. Different types and proportions of lignin and polysaccharides present in biomass lead to the formation of LCC with a great variety of compositions and structures. The nature and amount of LCC linkages and lignin substructures affect the efficiency of pulping, hydrolysis, and digestibility of biomass. This review paper discusses the structures, compositions, and properties of LCC present in biomass and in the products obtained via pre-treating biomass. Methods for extracting, fractionating, and analyzing LCC of biomass, pulp, and spent pulping liquids are critically reviewed. The main perspectives and challenges associated with these technologies are extensively discussed. LCC can be extracted from This article was authored by Dmitry Tarasov, Matthew Leach, and Pedram Fatehi We are article.tv, links in the description below


Even though the office of the President of the United States is easily the most powerful office in this country and likely the world, there are very few qualifications a person must meet to hold that office. The Constitution outlines only three requirements. To become President, a person must be 35 years old, a natural born citizen of the United States and must have lived in the United States at least 14 years prior to taking office. Interestingly, the first nine presidents did not adhere strictly to one of these requirements. The United States had not been in existence when they were born, but these first presidents were all born in one of the colonies. Although there are only three constitutional requirements to meet, the president must exhibit a host of qualities and characteristics to three distinct audiences. These three groups are politicians, party activists, and of course, the public. To get these groups' approval, cooperation and support, presidents need to possess highly developed leadership and management skills. Some political scientists such as James McGregor Burns suggest that for a leader to be considered a great president, he must first have a clear, focused agenda, one that can actually be achieved during his term in office. The more objectives achieved during his tenure, the greater their name will go down in history. Of course, fulfilling objectives requires cooperation from Congress and other parties. This is why political scientist and historian Richard Neustadt asserted that one of a president's most necessary qualities is the power to persuade. Although a president has great power, he cannot simply issue orders to carry out an agenda. President Truman recognized how important it was to be able to persuade people to follow his lead. All the president is is a glorified public relations man who spends his time flattering, kissing and kicking people to get them to do what they are supposed to do anyway. President Harry Truman, May, 1947 Another quality a president needs to possess is the ability to fill many different roles. There are five distinct roles required of a president, head of state, chief executive, commander in chief, diplomat and legislator. Each of these roles requires different skills and knowledge, and each carries significant responsibility and demands on time. The presidents considered the most successful are good at all five of these roles.  A president's personality can also have a great bearing on his success in office. Political scientists have determined that presidents who have active rather than passive personalities and who have a positive rather than negative perception of the job are more likely to be seen as strong leaders. Having a clear agenda and purpose is also key. The Constitution includes a number of rules that affect the office of the president. These rules regulate areas such as election, succession, impeachment, compensation and terms of service. There are two ways for a person to become president by election or succession. To be elected, a person must receive a majority of electoral votes in the electoral college. If no candidate receives a majority, the house of representatives selects the president. A vice president may become president by way of succession if the president cannot complete his term. If the vice president is unable to succeed the president, the speaker of the house is next in line to assume the office. He is followed in the pecking order by the president pro tempore of the senate and the members of the cabinet in order of the department's creation. In 1967 with the passage of the 25th amendment, it was allowed that a vice president could officially take over presidential duties if he and a majority of the cabinet members agreed that the president is incapacitated or if the president declared himself incapacitated. This amendment also provides that the president can regain his position by sending a written declaration to the senate president pro tempore and the speaker of the house. If the vice president and a majority of the cabinet disagree, the decision goes to congress, which would need a two thirds approval to keep the vice president in power. The framers of the constitution foresaw that at some point, a president might need to be removed from office. For this reason, they included the process of impeachment. Grounds for impeachment include treason, bribery or high crimes and misdemeanors. The process of impeachment includes filing formal charges against the president and conducting a trial. First, the house of representatives must have a majority vote to impeach. If this occurs, then the senate must have a two thirds approval vote in order to convict.  In both cases, the house voted to impeach, but the senate did not achieve a two third majority to convict. President Richard Nixon resigned prior to what would have been an inevitable impeachment. I brought myself down. I impeached myself by resigning. President Richard Nixon. The framers understanding of human nature is also evidenced in the rules they established for a president's compensation. The president has paid a salary plus an expense allowance, both of which are set by Congress. To prevent bribery or other corruptions, presidents are not allowed to accept gifts as payment for fulfilling the duties of office. In 2004, the president's salary was $400,000 with a $50,000 expense allowance. Because he is still a citizen, the president's salary is also subject to income tax. The constitution also follows the president established by George Washington in limiting the number of terms a president can serve to two four-year terms. This limit was not part of the original constitution, but was added with the 22nd Amendment in 1951 after Franklin Roosevelt was elected president four times.
