He's definitely about enjoying life and inventing things that would make life more fun without doing as much homework and school work. I was born with prune belly. Because your belly looks like a prune, they nickname it prune belly. So we told mom that she could expect that he would need a number of operations and I have done about five surgeries on him to correct complications associated with that condition. Everything came to fruition just like Dr. Voight laid it out perfectly, almost to the month of every age that he said it was going to happen. If he wanted to become an inventor, I'd love to see the products that he invents and probably would buy one. He lives a relatively normal life compared to what could have been.


Alright, I guess we can go ahead and get started. Good morning again welcome to the first of two give back Tahoe workshops that will be hosting. I am Caroline crappy with TTCF and Lisa Galperin is also on the line. Lisa, do you want to start sharing the slides. So I'm just going to start by giving a quick TTCF and give back Tahoe overview. And then I will hand it over to Lisa and she'll be giving you the rundown of mighty cause and just getting started, getting your page up and running for this year, and then we'll open it up for some questions. So as most of you probably already know, we are the Tahoe Truckee Community Foundation, and we have been hosting give back Tahoe since 2014. Our mission is to connect people and opportunities generating resources to build a more caring creative and effective community. So this will be the eighth annual give back Tahoe end of your fundraising campaign. The important dates that you want to remember will be kicking off with on giving Tuesday on November 30. And then November 30 to December 14 is the challenge grand period where you will be eligible to win more. Through donations raised during that time. And a lot of our marketing efforts will be focused around those dates and we encourage you to do the same. However, the entire giving season will be the entire month and we just found that a lot of donors are still giving throughout the end of the year so we want to keep it open through the campaign. So the platform is available all year round but the donations during that period are the only ones that will count towards the challenge grants, or just through the give back Tahoe metrics. Last year we had 50 nonprofits registered and on giving Tuesday alone we raise 132,000 from more than 1200 donors. And then during the entire campaign of 428,000 from more than 1400 donors and that was our best year yet. And then like I said we want to encourage you to use the platform all year round for donations and also volunteer recruitment. We did make some changes to the campaign last year so the first one being that the platform was open all year round and we were encouraging donors and nonprofits to use it for that purpose. In the challenge grants, we focus on unique donors versus amount raised and a lot of that was just due to COVID and a lot of the year round fundraising that all of us were doing. So, we also added in some non competitive random grants, again just hoping that more people would walk away with additional money. And we shortened the challenge grant period so it went from being a month to two weeks, because some of the feedback that we heard was a lot of nonprofits were doing their own fundraising campaign. And it just got to be a lot managing to and also just having it last a month long during such a busy time. And lastly, we lowered the donation minimum from $50 to $5 and a lot of that again went back to just year round fundraising and concerns about donor fatigue. But last year at the end of the campaign we did send around us feedback to all the participants and we received positive feedback on all of these changes. So we plan to keep them again for this year. And now I will hand it over to Lisa. Hello, everyone. It's nice to see you. So we're just going to be going over some key reminders and basics about the platform. In case you haven't used it since last year's give back Tahoe season. So the first step this year to get started is to of course register your nonprofit right now registration is open so if you go to give back Tahoe.org, you'll see the main CTA or call to action button is to register. So you can just click that button and complete your registration registration deadline is October 14. So it's a quick and easy survey. The questions are similar to what they were last year. But if you have any questions about the registration form, please feel free to reach out to us and we'd be more than happy to help them to go over the fees for this year. So the overall transaction fee on the platform is broken up into two parts. So there is a credit card processing fee or each fee which I'll get to in a second. And there is also a platform fee. So with credit card processing all together the total fee is 4.9% plus 30 cents. So if you see in the image above or on your screen that's broken down into a 2.9% plus 30 cent credit card processing fee which goes straight to the credit card processors American Express it's a little bit more, it's a little slightly higher. And then the platform fee is 2%. So that's on any credit card processing and of course, as you know, donors always have the ability to cover this processing fee, if they want to. So credit card processing, we also have a CH processing, I believe we had that last year, but just to go over that again. So each processing is actually it's available for donations that are $50 or above. So one option is below $50 a donor is not going to see the ability to donate via a CH. And it's a really great option for donors that are donating a large amount because the transaction fees are actually slightly lower. So there is still a 2% platform fee, however, you would replace that 2.9 credit card 2.9% plus 30 cent credit card processing fee with a 1% a CH fee, and also a $1 and 50 cent fixed fee per transaction. So what that means is that if someone were to donate twice via CH that $1 50 cents would actually be removed from their second transaction. But overall, then that total processing fee is capped at $5. So if you have a donor that's donating $1,000 it's actually much lower the total processing fees for them if they donate via a CH. And to note that cap that $5 cap does not apply to the 2% platform fee. And if you have any questions about the fees pricing feel free to let us know in the chat or we can talk about that after the slides when we go over any questions. So one of the things we talk about every single year is the story that you're going to share for this year's Tahoe campaign. And we always recommend at Mighty Cause since we do host many giving days is for organizations to start thinking about that at the beginning of the campaign that they're trying to build out. What's the story that you're going to share this year about give back Tahoe. 2020 happened in 2021 there was a lot that happened just in your community a lot has happened with all of the fires and smoke. So how has that impacted your organization what can you share about your organization to your donors that's different than what you have shared last year. So you can do that through your organization page and through your inline text editor where you can add an update the images that you've had the text that you've had, maybe you want to update your banner image. There's a custom tab if you want to utilize that there's a lot that you can really change or update on your page, based off, you know, the changes of your organization this year. So we'll also get into fundraising more fundraising strategies in the next webinar. So just to brush up on some of that those fundraising strategies though. One of the things that we also really encourage organizations to do so, especially at the beginning when you're in the planning phases is to activate your ambassadors. What does that mean that can look like a lot of different things but you want to utilize the support network that you have now and help them participate in your giving date campaign most notably or most commonly that comes. It looks like a peer to peer fundraising campaign, where you ask, you know, people in your network that could be your board of directors, your board members to fundraise on behalf of your organization. Like I said we'll go into that more in the strategies webinar but the reason why that we have seen that be really effective for organizations is because it allows your network to share the story of your organization in a different way and to a different network of people that maybe wouldn't have been able to reach. We have a really powerful effective tool, we have those tools available if that's something that you are considering doing or you're interested in doing on the platform. As well in addition to peer to peer fundraising you want to make sure that you are also sharing your organization on all social platforms, part of also activating your ambassadors is to also reaching out to your network and see who can support your organization at that time. It's really great to start thinking about your communications plan. If you are short staffed if you are need additional help again feel free to reach out to your network. Utilize volunteer website to see who can help in those areas where you're lacking.  We do have templates in the toolkit that you can use for email for social media. So all you have to do is copy and paste that text into your social or emails. And you want to also start thinking about who you want to reach out to so you want to segment your communication by donor groups. So maybe you want to reach out to a certain donor group or volunteer base to ask them to appear to peer fundraising campaign, or maybe if you're looking for matches, looking to some of your donors to see who would be willing to provide a match for give back Tahoe. So you want to start thinking about those segments because that can actually be really helpful in figuring out what strategies you're going to have in place for your giving campaign. And of course, whenever reaching out to all of your channels making sure that they have a direct link to your organization page they know exactly where to go and what they need to do when when send that information. So as I mentioned just a slide before there are tool resources available to you. So in our toolkit will have another training that goes into more of the peer to peer fundraising matching grants how do you get them will kind of matches etc all of those details will go into further and more detail. So we have links to great tips how to guide and templates as well as images that you can utilize for your communications and marketing. The next webinar or workshop will be on October 13 at 10am specific time. So you can sign up for that today after the webinar. One of the things I one of the things I did want to highlight this year is that we will be resetting metrics for all organizations that register. So you don't have to worry about that step went after you register so you won't see that immediately but after you register we will be resetting metrics for you before the event happens so don't have to worry about that step or figuring that out on your page. If you run into any technical questions confused about anything concerned about anything. Please reach out to our support team as I mentioned we host several giving days so we have supported so many organizations and have received every question you can imagine so please reach out because that's what we're here for and make sure that this is a seamless and easy process for you so reach out to our support team. And we will also post this workshop afterwards on the toolkit so if you need this information you'll find that on the toolkit as well. So I want to make sure that we go through any questions that anyone may have so if you want to utilize the chat if you have any questions about this year's give back Tahoe campaign. And I can help answer any questions anyone may have them. I have a quick question. Yes, this is Mary with Wampler Foundation. So I was creating my registration. And I'm pretty much ready to submit that. I think I'm ready to start with the question about matching funds and right now I have one commitment from an individual for some matching funds but I have another one that I think I might get it does it matter. Should I just put in what I know I have for sure. If I come up with another match that's after October 14. Does it make a difference. In in this process. registration form. Do you want to answer that in regards to impacting, do you need that information? I don't see that impacting I think as long as it is up and running and properly set up by the time the campaign is live I would imagine that was fine. So I have 5000 right now and I'm expecting another potentially 10,000 but I don't have a firm commitment for it. So if I put in 5000 and hit submit. And then later I get another 10,000 matching. I do do I update it on the page. Yep, then you will do it at the time and you can help you as that gets closer. There's also a detailed article in the nonprofit tool kit about that but okay. Yeah, I wouldn't put it in right now if it's not confirmed. Okay, perfect. Any other questions. So I do have one more question. So I've built out my page. A lot of it's not completely done yet. Once I registered does that become visible when do these pages become visible to the public. Like I went back to the give back Tahoe and don't see us listed yet but I haven't submitted the registration so does that show up once I hit submit. Yeah, so there, your, your organization will be in the search. Once you're approved and if you haven't, if you didn't participate last year if this is your first time should be already and okay. Yeah, so then you will be added to the search. So, if a donor would find, you know, your organization there. Okay. Thank you. Any other questions that we could help answer. I think that means you did a great job Lisa. I hope so but if there's anything that comes up afterwards, you know, again please feel to reach out to us I know I have those moments where I'm like, I should have answered I should have asked you and didn't come to mind at that time. Well, if no one has any other questions. Please. Yes, we will be sharing the slide so we'll share a video will share the video of this on the toolkit and we'll also have a PDF copy that you can download afterwards that if you want to share with anyone on your team. That will be available. So all of that will be available and yes Caroline said we have a lot of also support articles on different topics if there's something that you want to find to like send to your team or anything. Please let us know and we can send that over to you and please let us know how best we can support you into this upcoming giving season as we all know it gets really chaotic or really soon so let us know how we can help them. I think everyone already has my email but Caroline at TTCF in case you have any additional questions for me, but thanks so much for joining everyone and we hope to see you on October 13. Have a good day everyone.


Today we live in a world that's enormously complex and much more interdependent than in any time in history. We are confronted with global issues that we've never faced before and that transcend geographical boundaries. Hi, I'm Wayne Cascio. The problems of today and of tomorrow demand a more wide-ranging interdisciplinary approach to finding solutions. Leaders of tomorrow will have to collaborate and operate in an environment where they can navigate cultural, regional, and political differences. This will be even more critical to achieving lasting success than it's ever been before. Founded in 1971, the purpose of the World Economic Forum is not to make decisions, but rather to act as a force for reflection, connecting ideas, stakeholders, countries, and cultures. Not only does the forum bring leaders together, it also recognized the need to develop a new generation of leaders whose goal is to improve the state of the world. This year, the Shurm Foundation traveled to Geneva, Switzerland, to learn firsthand about this new approach to leadership. We spoke with leaders in business, government, and academia to appreciate their perspectives and we focused special attention on a leadership incubator, the forum's global leadership fellows program that is helping to shape the next generation of world leaders. I think what we need today foremost is global leaders who really can act as a global community. The forum brings people together in order to share their understandings of what's going on in the world and in order to identify ways to improve it. All of us have opportunities to be global leaders and it needed to be in a large forum such as the United Nations or a multinational corporation. One can be a global leader even in a smaller outfit or in an NGO. My role is essentially to act as a liaison for a broad range of civil society organizations. I'm heading the university community for the World Economic Forum, which basically includes a group of university presidents. I work for the team that focuses on business solutions that address chronic hunger. My work is engaging foundation members from Chinese side to the World Economic Forum. I manage the logistics and transport community, so in other words I work with executives from that industry and with them I try and identify areas in which they can help improve the impact of their industry in terms of social and environmental goals. We help them to do their self-assessment as leaders. They get exposure in so-called retreats where they go on a global retreat in nations with global issues that we look at. They also have clear and regular exposure to leaders, not only in Davos or in regional meetings, but here literally weekly where they meet one of the top leaders of business, of government, religious leaders, social entrepreneurs, you name it. If you look at the challenges in our world, that's a problem. They cannot be solved by governments alone, by business alone or by civil society alone. What we need is cooperation, what we need is partnerships. There is a huge need for the global leaders to be aware and create awareness, to recognize the interdependencies and the complexity that is related with the global issues, but also the need for collaboration. There are numerous global challenges which cannot be solved by anyone global actor alone, be that poverty reduction, climate change, the global economic crisis. In many cases when one can leverage the strategies and resources of these different actors together, then probably we are in a better position to address those challenges. I think leaders of tomorrow have to be prepared to deal with a great deal of dynamic complexity. Today you have to act practically like a guerrilla fighter. You have to have of course a mission and you have to follow a vision, but you have to adapt constantly to the changes in your environment. So adaptability is today probably the key leadership factor, but adaptability based on a long term vision. People who ask for a job here or who have a chance of being offered a job really need to have this global understanding and we not only assess their professional or academic achievements, but particularly that kind of global mindset. You have so many angles that you can look at. It's really fascinating how people from different cultures look at a problem in so many different ways and can come up with so many solutions that you hadn't thought of. I think part of the value of the peer coaching is that you get to be both the coach and the coachee and so this opportunity to listen to somebody else's issues and sort of put on your advisor hat. You try and emulate what you see other people doing that appears to work very well and within the fellows program and within the forum at large there are a lot of people who I have high respect for and so obviously I try and learn from their example. Those coach each other so they have groups that are peer coaching groups. They have their coaching training and for two years they as a team meet and help each other to improve as leaders. The forum is a neutral platform and we think that honesty, transparency and integrity are key values. One of the things that I found most useful for me has been the level of honesty in the feedback that my peers provided me. I think the most important part of it is the dedication to a particular way of acting and to giving the space and with that the resources, the budget and everything that comes with it to helping young people understand what their strengths are and what their weaknesses are. So I think any organization can basically do that. It isn't all that difficult but it requires foresight, vision and it requires resources. The single most influencing experience that I've had in my life for three years in China. The last six, twelve months have shown that China or Asia is not somewhere far away. It's here. So I would recommend anybody if the chance is available to grab that chance and get exposed to Asia. Always be learning, always be curious. If you do learning just as a professional duty, it's not enough. You have to have a nature of curiosity which allows you to absorb and to enjoy learning. The world today is completely transparent. You cannot hide away. Whatever you do will be known. And if you want to be a leader, reputation is the key. Your ethics, they form your reputation so you cannot make any compromises. Today we are proud if we speak three or four western languages as I'm doing. But I think our children and particularly our grandchildren have to learn a language or at least one language which does not belong to our cultural sphere. In order to be really capable not only to speak the language but to deeply understand those different cultures. Here are five lessons from the World Economic Forum's experience in developing global leaders for tomorrow's organizations. Seize opportunities to learn about different cultures, values and perspectives so that you can navigate and bridge those differences. Get a coach and a mentor early in your career. If possible, work with a coach to help you recognize your personal strengths and weaknesses and to learn from your mistakes. Meet regularly with your mentor. Watch how he or she acts as a leader. Understand that to lead leaders you must be authentic and genuine, demonstrating strong moral and ethical values in all that you say and in all that you do. Recognize the interdependence among global issues, countries, communities and people. Use collaborative leadership. Make the effort to hear everyone's voice and actively seek input from all stakeholders. As the American humorist Will Rogers once said, even if you're on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there. In today's fast-moving world, none of us can afford to just sit there, basking in the status quo. Through its global leadership fellows program, the World Economic Forum is showing all of us a new approach to global leadership for tomorrow's organizations. That train is leaving the station. Isn't it time that we all get on board?


My name is Mike Toppe. I'm here to talk to you about clean code. You just heard on the CTO at Pokioke Design. I'm doing web application development since the days of HTML 1.0, Pearl 3, and CGI when web pages were first painted on cable walls. And over the years, I've learned some things that I'll try to share with you in the next 10 minutes. And at Pokioke Design, we do work in WordPress. We also do work in Ruby on Rails. And those are two very different platforms using two very different languages. But there are techniques and approaches that really apply across languages, across platforms, and really that's what I'm here to talk to you about. So that might sound nice, clean code. But I have a deadline. I don't have time for clean code. So we run into this all the time. We're under deadline pressure. Our project managers, our clients, are telling us we've got to get this done by Friday. You're working long hours. And the common outcome of this is the big ball of mud code, the fast and dirty code, to get something done. So we rush to go faster. But what happens is we actually end up going slower. There are more bugs. We have to go back and fix them. We're finding needles in haystacks. Getting the work done actually takes longer than if we adjust written clean code to begin with. So really the idea here is that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. So how do we know this? There's actually been studies that have done, studies that have been done, watching actually programmers work. How are they spending their time? And the ratio of time spent reading code versus writing is well over 10 to 1. People are actually spending most of their time scrolling up and down in a file looking for something. No, it's not their open another file. Oh, it's not there either. Where's this thing I'm trying to fix? The actual time you spend typing is a lot less than the time you spend just looking around. So if you take the time to make your code easy to read, you will make the code easier to write. This is a great quote from Douglas Crockford, who is one of the people who created JSON. He said, we like to think we spend our time power typing, but we actually spend most of our time staring into the abyss. And this is what I was just talking about. Spend a lot of our time fighting the messy code. So with that as an explanation as to why it's important, here are 10 quick tips for making your code clean. Number one, you are responsible for the quality of your code, not your client, not your boss. If you think about other professions, doctors, lawyers, accountants, they all have professional standards that they adhere to. You don't go to the doctor and say, you know what, Doc? I'm in a hurry.  You don't go to your accountant and say, why don't you just skip the double-endary bookkeeping while you're bothering with that? Let's go. We have certain respect for people in these professions and respect how they work. So if we want to be treated as professionals, we have to act like professionals. We have to be advocates for the quality of the code that we write and advocate for doing it the right way and not accept the option to do it the wrong way. We're a young field and to me that's very exciting to be part of defining what these professional standards are and it's up to us to create them, not our clients, not our project managers. So that's number one. Number two, when you're writing your code, use meaningful names. So for example, with variables, this is an example of a variable name that's not very good, $1.90. What does that mean? By itself, you've got a little comment. It tells you what it does. But once you start getting to the code, looking at all these variables with all these cryptic names, the mental translating you have to do going back and forth between some cryptic little symbol and its actual meaning starts to get in the way of actually understanding the work that you're trying to do. So here are some better names that actually tell you what the variable does. Grady Butch, the former chief scientist at IBM said that clean code should read like well-written pros. So if you look at variable names like this, the variable names, those are your nouns in your pros. Number three, we get to our verbs writing code that expresses intent. These are our functions, our methods if you're reading object-oriented programming. I don't know if you can see the code on the screen there. It's probably a little small. But the idea here is that we have method names just like our variable names that clearly explain what it's for. And as you read the code, you can sort of, you know, understand what it's doing. And I'm not even giving you any context. You don't know what class this came from. But you can read it and sort of get a sense of what's going on. And you can do that without something. There's something that's not here. And the thing that's not here is comments. So this will be kind of a controversial comment on comments. But comments are often lies waiting to happen. Code should speak for itself whenever possible. So what do I mean by this? Often we write comments because the code, the intention of the code isn't clear. So we think, okay, let's write a comment to help explain it. But when you create the comment, you've now written something else that you have to maintain in addition to the code. And what often happens when people are working on a project, they come in and they fix a bug, they update the code, maybe they don't notice the comment. Now the comment's wrong and now it's a lie and it's gonna take a future developer down the wrong path when they come down and look at this. So I'm not saying never write comments. Often they are important. For example, if you're dealing with like a third party API and you need to explain some behavior, you can't necessarily do that in the code. So there are good cases for writing comments. I'm not saying never use them. What I am saying is when you're about to write a comment, step back and think for a moment and think, can I write code that expresses itself a little better and then maybe I don't have to write a comment. Number five is the Boy Scout rule. In the case of code, when we talk about the Boy Scout rule we mean leave the code better than you found it. With the Boy Scout it's leave the campsite better than you found it. So not only am I saying should you write clean code, but if you're going in working on some existing code, take your new stuff right at well. But take a few minutes and look at the surrounding code. Can I improve a variable name? Can I break up a method that's too big? So instead of the common scenario of bit rot where code just gets messier and messier over time, we can instead have code that gets cleaner and cleaner over time. This is possible. I've worked with people who've done it and it's a great way to work. Number six, a single responsibility principle. This is one of five principles coined by a Bart Martin who actually wrote a book called Clean Code and many of the ideas in my talk come from there. So single responsibility principle is the idea when we're talking about say a function or a method that it does one thing, it does it well and it does it only. So what do we mean by that? A good way to think about it is if you're passing four or five arguments to a function, it's probably doing more than one thing. If you think about all those variables you're passing and you're now sort of creating a matrix of possible outcomes, it can be quite large and it can be hard to debug if there's problems with it because there's so many things going on inside it. So that's a good way of getting familiar with this principle when it comes to functions and methods with classes. If you're doing object-oriented programming, what you're looking for is what's called cohesiveness and the idea there is are most of the methods in the class using most of the properties that all sort of hangs together? If you've got one subset of methods using half the properties and another subset of methods using the other half, you're probably doing more than one thing in that class. Maybe it actually needs to be two classes. So they each have a clear conceptual responsibility when you come to work on the coding and it's clear what they're doing when they have one responsibility as opposed to many. Number seven, write tests. If you saw Carl Alexander's talk yesterday, he did an excellent presentation on this, much deeper dive that I can take in 30 seconds. But there's really two kinds of tests. One type is called integration tests which actually test the functionality of how a user will experience your code. And these have saved me so many times where I've changed something over here and I run the tests and found, what do you know, I broke something over there and it's much better that I find it with my tests than an angry customer finding it two weeks from now. And there are also unit tests which test your functionality in isolation and test driven development is a great way to do this where you first come up with a test and then write your code to pass the test and it leads to better design. I am running out of time, I'm gonna move a little faster, I'm gonna skip number eight and hit you with number nine. Independent architecture, why am I subjecting you to this awful image? This is a quote from Bob Martin, says that software architectures are structures that support the use cases of the system. Frameworks are tools to be used, not architectures to be conformed to. So what's he talking about here? You can think of WordPress as a framework. So you can say WordPress is a tool to be used, not an architecture to be conformed to. The idea here is that there are good practices that can be applied across different frameworks and languages. So for example, WordPress plugins that I've written is very clear from looking at the files and the variable names, what functionality this plugin implements and I could even with a few changes take it outside of WordPress and use it, my connections to WordPress aren't any greater than they need to be. So the use cases are clear in the plugin as opposed to, so it's not sort of yelling at you that it's a WordPress plugin, it's yelling at you that it's a photo display or something like that. Number 10, practice, practice, practice. Musicians don't only play when they're on stage in front of an audience and really the same thing applies to programming. Do codecots, go to contributor day. Learn new techniques when you're not performing for a client who's paying you and that's a way you can really improve your skills and I am done, thank you very much.


Benjamin Huntington Wright was an English actor best known for his role as Aira Zeller in the Sound of Music, and as the voices of Roger Radcliffe in 101 Dalmatians, and Sir Grimsby in The Little Mermaid. Wright was born May 15, 1915 in London, the United Kingdom, to an American father and an English mother. He entered the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts at the age of 16 and, upon graduation, began appearing in several West End theatrical productions. He would serve in the King's Royal Rifle Corps during World War II. In 1946, Wright came to the United States to attend a cousin's wedding, and he decided to move to California. He started his American acting career in radio quickly becoming in demand for his talent in performing accents and dialects. Among his many roles, he was the final actor to play Sherlock Holmes on the radio from 1949 to 1950. The Indian servant Telku on the Green Lama in 1949, he was Inspector Peter Black on pursuit from 1951 to 1952.

What's up everybody, Jason here for jazbeasecasebreak.com. Happy new release day, guys. This is also a wax party promo break. 2022, can you select football, six box, hobby, half case break, picketines, number one. Now again, number one and two will be from the same case. Here's the customers here. Andrew got the Broncos last bomb, Mojo. Here's everybody else in here, ready to roll. So let's open up the case. One, two, three for the left, four, five, six for the right. Let's get a dice roll. And it's going to be two. So one, two, three. So these boxes here will be for number two, which we're probably just going to run right back right now, so. And actually, let me go get a monster or a shoe box. All right, here we go, guys. So again, my first look at the line. I did see some people rip some first off the line yesterday, which looked pretty nice. The field level is like horizontal this year. Not sure if it has been every year, but I don't think so. And it was pretty much the same configuration where you get two out of one men. So see how it goes right here, guys. Good luck. Oh, look, this is like one of those things for that Bob and Miller dice. Remember Bob and Miller told you those Dodgers? The Linus one, I told you, was funny. But it's one of those backstage Dodgers of him getting called up. He's like four and ours. See his chest? Cool. How did that? That's what you have. They're showing up when he got called up and stuff. So he was working out that once, everybody told you. I know, but I couldn't find a name for this one. I couldn't either. All right, here we go, guys. Also, two guys, I didn't make the announcement, but I know Nick put it in the item description. So the XRCs will be going to the teams that they're current team. So XRC1, quarterback, QB number one, of course, would be Panthers, Bryce Young. And then if there is Mr. Redemptions, they'll be randomized until they are announced by Panini or the checklists. Because it looks like we also got an XRC already. So I just kind of want to announce that before. So Patrick Mahomes. And again, I think these are the field levels at Corral. We got a Tyler Linderbaum to $2.99. Then we got a Darius Leonard award winners autograph already. Nice one there for the Colts. Colts is Zach. We got Mac Daddy Jones, number 2.99. Then we got a little Aaron Rodgers, neon icons. And I don't know, pretty sure this is just a normal parallel, it just could be silvered, but we'll sleeve it up just for now. Then we got a Martin Emerson, number 2.199. Then we got a Zameer White 2.99, little patch autograph for the Las Vegas Redis. Ryan with that one. We have a Devante Adams 2.49, that's a sweet level for the Raiders, Josh Allen, and Kenneth Walker to $99 Relic. A nice Damien Pierre, that's a cool little color match right there. 20 out of 35. That's Houston going to Peter. So here we go, let's go with the XRC. So it says Prism Redemption, Defense 3. Defense number 3, so who is the third defensive player taken in the draft, guys? Anybody know, the top of their head? Obviously it was like quarterback, quarterback Will Anderson. Let's go back to the draft. 2023 NFL draft. And it looks like, so yeah, Will Anderson was one. Devon Weatherspoon was the second pick, number 5 overall as a cornerback. And then it's going to be Tyree Wilson actually, Texas Tech defensive end at number 7. So it's quarterback, quarterback, linebacker, quarterback, or sorry, quarterback, quarterback, linebacker, quarterback, CB, offensive tackle, defensive end. So that's Tyree Wilson. So Tyree Wilson, defensive end out of Texas Tech. Yeah, dude, he is a beast, Ryan. I was just talking to my wife about it. He's looking really, really good. I want to say he's still undefeated. I think he's like 4-0 with the Dodgers. He has a little swagger to him too. But yeah, he's one of the younger call-ups for the Dodgers as a pitcher. All right, guys. And I believe those XRCs usually get potentially 3, I think, in a case, 3 or so. Now some of those could be numbered. They can be autographed. So obviously depending on the XRC. But usually it still sounds extremely well, especially if it's like a big quarterback or a big player. So always fun to keep an eye on those. And those are like extra bonus hits too, so which is a cool thing. And you do have quite some time to redeem those too. Here we go, next one. We have Asana Askins to $199. That's an autograph there for the Tennessee Titans going to EA. We have Vaughn Miller, nice little blue color match for the Bills out of $99. Aidan Hutchinson, a little rookie, a little Jaylen Hertz Silver. Then we have a Josh Allen spark. Or sparks, I should say, the $75. And a gold, Dawson Knox, out of 10. Nice gold. Do you think I should make hit packs for Instagram tomorrow? Or should I save them for a crate on YouTube's front? Maybe like a crate. I don't know when these were going to sell today. I mean, hopefully they sell it today. We still have a lot of nice hits. But if not, I can do like a crate over there too. Someone was asking me about the yesterday, so. Yeah, we can do like a crate like the way I did it last time. $52.99 and Rashad Bateman. But yeah, no, yeah, I think for sure like a crate on the weekend or two. And Rashad Bateman auto there. That's going to go to the Ravens and Aaron. All right, so you have another XRC. And it looks like we have a little snakeskin coming out. I don't know if these are super low numbered or not, but nice. Gino Smith, that looks very nice. They're like, it's a color match kind of, right? One of two, that's right. I forgot these are out of two. That's a nice one there for the Seahawks, John Wenzel. Look at that, man. Beautiful car. Long take, Taylor. And that's a Kenny Pickett silver field level. That's nice. Sauce, a little green. That's for Patrick and the Jets to $49. And a little Garrel Wilson silver rookie. All right, let's see the other XRC now, guys. Good luck. 507. Running back at number one. Nice. And that should be Bijan Robinson, right? Yeah. Running back at number one, eighth overall pick Bijan Robinson is the first running back off the board. Obviously, Jamar Gibbs was number two at number 12 for the Detroit Hunts. But there you go, very nice. That should probably sell well. Bijan Robinson. So that's going to go to the Atlanta Falcons, which is Connor. They go, hey, what's up, Connor? There you go. Yeah, all right, nice. That was a pretty solid box. Remember the autographs haven't been too crazy? But I will say a gold. We got a little snakeskin XRC Kenny Pickett. Not too shabby so far. Definitely feel like that could be a lot better too. At least for the autos. I feel like we haven't hit like a nice auto yet. Here we go, next one. Nice land jack out of $149. Allante, Taylor. Whoa. Little Herbie. I don't know if these are like case hits or shore reprints, but I feel like they are. And that is a selections. Nice one there for the Chargers head. It's been a while since I wrote some select, honestly. I don't even know what to expect anymore. You have Jonathan Taylor, red, white and blue. And then Dwight Freeny, Indianapolis Colts, going to Zach. Go to AJ Brown. We have Derek Stingley Jr. to $249. Then we got a Charles Cross and a Desmond Ritter to $49. Very nice.  What a patch autograph. Remember, he is going to get a shot. He is going to get a shot with Atlanta. 33 out of $49. Martin Emerson to $149. Then we got Roquan Smith, Little Relic. That's Raven's number to $75. You could pull two so far, Mike. No numbered Carter Autos, but... And Bijan Robinson, XRC, and then a Tyree Wilson, which was Defensive Player 3. RB1, Defensive Player 3. Bailey Zappi to $199. Nice one there for the Pats. Karen Steele, there you go, Karen. We got a Sensations Hop. We got a little Austin Eckler to $199. Then we got a Javon, the Free Kars, for the Titans Auto. I'm pretty sure they do, Mike, because I think the next Defensive Player after Tyree would be probably Jalen Carter. So if there's a D4, they definitely have one. Then we got a Justin Fields to $149. Nice one for Kobe Dean. We got a Donovan Wilson. Oh, is there a list already? Oh, we were just going by the checklist. I guess I should, I mean, by the draft. Let's pull that up. Okay, so I think I was correct, actually. Yeah, okay, cool. So there is a checklist. So there's a checklist for the XRC Prism Redemptions, for sure, but yeah. Maybe they stop at, like, after Defensive 3. Well, I don't know, it depends, because remember, if they stop at Defensive 3, then, yeah, they don't have any more after that. So that's kind of cool that they already have it out there, so that way people are not confused or arguing about it. But I was just going by the draft. I mean, it should be the same thing. Yeah, maybe he's not on there. They probably don't honestly want so many Defensive Players in this, I'd assume, at least for each position. They only want, like, three. And then they'll go to, like, DN1 and whatever the case may be. Malik, Willis. Dylan Parham. All right, next one, guys. All right, here we go. And look, so we got a Zebra. It's George Pickens, very nice. Nice Zebra there for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Michael Galucci, there you go, man.  Loved for it to be a Kenny Pickett, but I'll take a George Pickett for you. Nice, sweet level there. And, whoa, is this back-to-back Zebras? Freeze Hall. Neon Icons, wow. Back-to-back Zebras. I don't know if that's a mistake or not, but we'll take that. Jets, going to Patrick. And we got a Kevion Thibodeaux. Sweet level, with a little Adam Venetieri autograph for the Patriots. I think there was a writer right there. Jonathan Taylor, Kenny Pickett, Silver. Kenneth Walker. Redemption, Tyler Smith. And out of 10, Mark Andrews. Prime Selection's gold prism jersey number. Holy schnikes. So Prime Selection's gold prism jersey number. Card number 23. And that is Skye Moore. So Skye Moore, that's gonna go to the jersey number. Did anybody know Skye Moore's jersey number? Looks like he's numbered a 30 already. So gold jersey number. Now, of course, it's gonna go to Kansas City and Kansas City Chief Scott. There you go, man. Is he numbered 24? Okay, well, his normal is out of 30. He's only in orange, he's not in a base parallel. He starts with neon orange pulsars, so. If he's 24, so that'll be out of 24. Yeah, it's called gold jersey number, number to 10.  So I probably would think it's out of 10 too, to be honest, because it does say gold jersey number out of 10. Maybe it just shows like the big 24 or something, you know? That's probably out of 10 though, I'd assume. So that would be dumb for them to say that. Yeah, another parallel called green team logo. Yeah, so you know what? It's probably just featuring like his number 24 at some point in the card, but it's gonna be out of 10.  So that kind of makes more sense. So that should be out of 10. Oh, Scott. There's an XRC, Jalen Patry, patch autograph. Yes, probably something like that out of there. That kind of makes more sense. Nice, our first little tie dye, Rashad Shahid for the New Orleans Saints, and the 75, Trevor Lawrence, a scary Terry McLauren in 99, and then we have to 99, J.C. Horn. The 149, Amonra, Kenny Pickett, neon icons. That press got a 75, got a little sauce. I believe that's sweet level to 149. XRC, 515, wide receiver six. So yeah, let's go back to XRC. So 515, wide receiver six, and 515 is Jaden Reed for the Green Bay Packers, part number 515. So Green Bay with that one. That's going to Joe. Alrighty, folks, and there you go. That was the break. A lot of solid, solid stuff popping out of here. I think this break took a little longer than I expected, so it'll probably go a little faster, at least the pack ripping, pack stacking. But a very nice one though, guys. Got a lot of nice cards in here. Got a nice name in Pierce. I love that Geno Smith. We got a couple of golds. But yeah, a lot of nice stuff in general. Got a couple of zebras. Solid, solid stuff. So appreciate it, guys. Thank you guys so much. Now again, I'm going to randomize the names now. We're going to give away a wax party promo spot. So let's get a new roll list. We'll randomize the names there. Click roll. One and a three four times. Good luck. One, two, three, and fourth and final time. Boom, four times, one, three, four. Yeah, congratulations, buddy. There you go. You are now into the wax party if you don't have a spot yet. So this will be 2022 select football six box PYT number one. And again, numbers two, three, and four will be popping off with me at least. So yeah, guys, we should have some fun. And I'm sure we'll be doing more of these later with Joe as well. So thank you guys. Number two is coming up next. Thanks.


Our job is to achieve correct union of the skin edges and achieve healing by primary attention. So this is a needle holder. How do we distinguish a needle holder from an artery holder? Straight artery holder. A needle holder will have a smaller jaw and a longer stem. An artery holder will do the opposite. It will have a longer jaw and a smaller stem. Technique of holding these instruments. The ring finger should go through the lower ring. The thumb should go through the upper ring. The middle finger will control it at a junction, a ratchet. And the index finger will give it a little release. This is the jaw. This is the thumb. This is the ratchet. Most instruments have three clicks of the ratchet. One, two, three. Depending on how tight a grip we want. Okay. Coming to the needles which are used for suturing. Broadly there are two types. A round-bodied needle and a cutlery depending on the cross-sectional appearance. For tough structures like skin, rectus sheath, linear alma, we use a cutting needle. While for delicate structures like peritoneum, mesentery, and intestine, we use a round-bodied needle. Since we are dealing with the skin here, we are going to use a cutting needle. So, let's say the patient has come to his fin injury. First, we use the needle holder and hold it at a junction between the needle holder and the lateral bumper. Two clicks is usually sufficient. If the needle still rotates, we can make a third click. This is a thumb force. Because it is held between thumb and index finger. Again, thumb force is for a tooth end. Those which have got a tooth end, you will see that one end is for a single tooth and the other end is for a double tooth. This is to grasp the structure firmly between the tooth. This is called a toothed force. Tooth force is used for structures like skin. Again, tough structures. Other type of thumb force is the plain thumb force, which does not have the tooth. We use those delicate structures like peritoneum, intestine, mesentery, etc. Since we are dealing with the skin here, we are using a toothed thumb force and we are using a cutting needle. This is nylon or polypropylene, which is a synthetic material. Let's demonstrate first a simple suture. A simple suture. We have already held the needle in our needle holder. We go approximately half a centimeter away from the skin edge, pick up the whole skin without tooth force. Take a full thickness bite. Without taking the needle out, pick up the other end and take a full thickness bite. Push it in a curved direction and catch hold of the other end and pull it out with a curving motion. Take two loops and tighten it. This is a simple stitch. Our aim of suturing is to ensure neat opposition of the epidermis and the dermis so as to give a healing by primary intention. This is the simplest and fastest technique. If you are confident with it, this is pretty good. If you can achieve this, this is pretty good. Remember another thing. For nylon, we have to take at least six throws, but not otherwise it tends to slip. And each loop should be opposite to the previous one as I am doing now. So that it does not slip. There it goes. So this is a simple stitch. When it comes to cutting the thread, we should always cut approximately half a centimeter to three quarters of a centimeter away from the knot. Why? For two reasons. Number one, if you cut it too close to the knot, we might allow the knot to slip. And the second reason is, when we have removed the sutures, we will have something to grasp it. We will have something to grasp it. And then we can remove it by putting the pointed end of the scissors under the knot. Loop of the knot, thread and cutting and pulling it out. So for this reason, we must have sufficient length so that we can grasp it. For these two reasons, we should not cut it too close to the knot. Usually this. So that was a simple stitch. Now let's demonstrate the vertical matrix. Again, the first step is pretty much the same. Hold it the way I demonstrated. Full thickness bite. Full thickness bite without taking it out. Push. And put it out of the curving motion. Next, hold it close to the tip. Hold it close to the tip. Now we have to go very minutely at the dermal epidermal junction. This is the dermal epidermal junction. And from this side and the same thing from the other side also. We pick up this end. Again, dermal epidermal junction. There we go. Push. Take it out. Now what we have achieved is union of the epidermis to the epidermis and the dermis to the dermis. Again, now we. And we put in the same number of throws. Very good. And so that was a vertical matrix. And now I'm going to demonstrate the third variety. Horizontal matrix. When do we do the horizontal matrix? When we want speed. Quick. And when there's too much of profuse bleeding coming from the edges which cannot be controlled. And we can sacrifice cosmetic beauty at the expense. And the expense of cosmetic beauty will achieve speed and control of bleeding. The first step is pretty much the same. Take a full thickness bite. Push. Take it out. Keep one end short as usual. Now take again the reverse way and go a little far away. Go in the opposite direction. This way and... Now when we turn the other end, Now when we tighten this, This may not be cosmetically as beautiful. But what we have achieved is, in one knot we have covered a big area and we have also stopped the bleeding in that place. And again tighten. Put as many throws as are required. Six throws for now. At least six throws for now. So this is horizontal madness. And then fold it many end cuts. So vertical madness, horizontal madness. So now all of you can practice.


Hey guys, it's Monica. Thank you so much for joining me. I am going to share with you a little bit of some of my empties and a little bit of some of my camping trip and That's probably about it I don't have a whole lot of stuff to share with you But I do have some empties and you may or may not be interested in them But I hope you are and I hope you stay tuned for a little bit of the Camping trip because I share a sunrise and it was just so pretty Anyways, if you're interested stay tuned Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. So I I've been collecting empties for a while I Never go through a whole bunch of things, but you know what? I was thinking gosh, you know since March I have not really shopped But once for a foundation for any new makeup, you know at all and I was like, oh Okay, so a couple of things that you know had been sent to me that I really enjoyed was the open formula And I think I talked about the oil cleanser That was sent to me for review. The price is amazing. I really really I've never used an oil Cleanser before so I was really super excited about it and I loved how it I Just loved how it made my skin feel and then I also used their exfoliator So that's what I've been sticking to I haven't bought any new cleansers yet at all and I don't think I'm going to I really I really like them a lot now prior to that I Was a Cera V person and I always use the Hydrating facial cleanser and I would buy these when they were on sale So I would have a stock and and all of that. Well, I really like this a lot This this has been my my cleanser of choice for a long time now, I've always been a Two or three step when it comes to washing my skin at night, especially in the summer Because I wear so much sunblock that I really really have to work at getting the sunblock off So I've been using the open formula oil cleanser But I also have some of my bombs that I will use around my eyes at times But what I've been finding that in You know in the past that I always had to do at least three steps for my cleansing I've been finding I don't have to anymore So sometimes I'll take a little bit of a bomb and I'll just go right around and take my mascara off Most times I don't most times what I do is I take the open formula the oil cleanser and I massage it around my eyes Then I massage it into my skin really really good And then I will take my for you and I'll turn my for you I'll wet my skin a little bit and I will just massage all the more and What I've been finding with the oil cleanser is that it actually digs deep Into getting that that sunblock off I mean I use the Australian gold mineral sunblock 50 SPF tinted from my face and that's my base and then I might use a Makeup that has sunblock in it And the last one that I bought that has sunblock in it was actually the number seven which I really like But so if you think about it, I've got a lot of sunblock on my face So the first thing I do when I come home is I take it all off I want my skin to breathe so being able to breathe is important. So I'm not replacing this because I'm so super happy With what I am using. I really love it. I love it a lot. The oil just has worked out super good I think open formula is a great Company with great products. So yeah not being replaced. I also ran out of the land comb now I got sent a smaller bottle of this from Maline Fab and glam so many I'm gonna use it I had to put it in the motorhome But I ran out of this and this I was using just to remove my eye makeup I really like this a lot But I also use the equate version that I get at Walmart I use a couple of different versions of this just to remove my eye makeup and This cleans it really well and so did this and so does the open formula So doll of a dollar. I'm gonna stick to the open formula, but these are empties. I'm glad I can finally get rid of them one of the things that I've been trying this all probably for I Don't know has it been about a month now that I've been trying the and I and I really wanted to really look at this Is the city this was sent to me complimentary. This is the city beauty beyond mascara I had mentioned that when I received this and in a PR pack while I didn't want to open it up I didn't want to try the mascara until I finished my current mascara and the one that I have is the essence last lash princess You know what no matter what mascara I've used whether it's it superhero I have of the Lancome that I really liked. I have this city beauty one I still go back to this so I don't have a backup of this I've gone through them all but this is on my when I get to the store type of thing that I'm gonna pick another one of these up because I really I really like them a lot So Yep, finally finally emptied that out The other thing that I did finish and surprisingly I really like this But this is the age rewind and I know a lot of the women talk about this I really like this, but I use this as I never put something completely under my eyes except a brightener The essence brightener and pink which I really like But I will get another one of these age rewinds and Because I can do a spot check with them and I really like it. I'll probably get a lighter color Um, I can't remember what color this is And I'm not too sure I can read it. I can't if I can't I'll put it in the description below So I do like this. I'll probably pick up another one, but I'm not going to rush to the store to buy it just yet One other thing I finally finished was the pixie skin skin treats. This is their vitamin c serum You can get this at Target. You can get this in many different stores pixie makes an amazing line of products I love the majority of their products that I've used and tried I get pixie pr So I just want to say that and I believe that this came In a pr package. I have bought pixie glow tonic Um, I bought other pixie products, but I've never bought their vitamin c. This came I'm pretty sure in one of the pr packs. I used it I finished it. I liked it. I like my timeless vitamin c so far the best I am using open formulas vitamin c because they also sent me that And while I like it, I still Love how my timeless vitamin c goes on my face how it feels on my face It's my tried and true so open formula has a really good very affordable vitamin c So far I've been using it and it plays nice with my makeup The pixie I had some pilling problems with it and it's a thicker Consistency So yeah, it's nice, but no, um, I'm not going to I'm not going to buy it. I'm not going to spend my money on it One product that I have used for so many years is my timeless eye cream I may have talked about running low on this. I did finally do. I mean totally empty this out And I'm going to hold off buying it because I have so many other eye creams that I'm using and I want to get through However, I love the timeless eye cream. I think it is really One of the best it is one of the best I Love my and I've talked about these. These are the bed and body works They're hand soaps around christmas time. I bought like 25 of them because they go on sale. They're super affordable You can get any flavors you want fragrance, whatever um, I bought a ton of them because they give them for gifts and I didn't realize how handy they would come during these last few months, but I this turquoise water is one of my favorites. I just really like this one I have several of these I have I have Only three left in backup, but I do so yeah I like these a lot and when you get the sale on those and I like the foaming one So when you can pick up a sale on that, I think it's really an awesome awesome opportunity. I finished two foundations Yeah One was my esti ladder all gone dried out history and the other was My boots number seven lift and luminate the triple action serum foundation So I will say that on on a regular basis I have really been liking my boots number seven a lot and I love my esti ladder So I have my esti ladder as a backup and I have a bottle of my boots number seven as a backup that I haven't opened These yet because I want to I you know, I don't know how true it is whether or not Products oxidize or not. I'm feeling that they probably can oxidize, you know, the more they're open So I just I just want to finish what I have open and to me. That's like a real You know to me, that's like a real important thing. So I have a couple of believe it or not I think I have two almost empty cyo bottles and I have The one that I'm really working on right now that I opened and I have on my face right now is my land comb I got that in the christmas gift thing at the holidays So I opened it. I don't know maybe about Three months ago and I said, well, this is gone. I'm going to use my land comb I don't know why I would save it for a good day. You know what I mean or a special occasion I'm worried that once they're open they will oxidize and and you know, and I don't want to take that chance So I could be wrong. One of you could maybe research it and tell me if I'm right or wrong That's really it for my empties and now I'm going to enclose a picture j and I went camping and we had the most amazing time We got into the beach campground Which was extremely hard to get into and the only reason we actually got that site is because when our governor opened it up He only opened it up for new Hampshire residents. So all the people that had reservations inside for a year Unfortunately couldn't come So we were able to take someone's place for that first for that week And um, and so we had a waterfront site right near the mouth of the ocean and oh my gosh We had we just had so much fun vegging at our campsite. I worked every day, but one day I took full day off And but all the other days I worked half days and or full days And sometimes I worked right from the camper from the motorhome So I really like that but one morning I got up and I walked down to the The sunrise and watch the sunrise and I'm going to put that clip because it's a long clip I'm going to put it on the tail end of this. So if somebody wants to watch it They can if they don't they don't have to but we had lobsters. We had steamers You know, we had too much to drink My sister came and visited friends of ours Camped down the the other end of the campground came over we had fires. It was just It was just such a relaxing a relaxing day and or a week I should say even though I had to work through most of it It was it was actually so it was so wonderful. So Yeah, that's that's I'm filming this on father's day this afternoon We're going to go down to my mom and dad's house And I don't know when this will be edited and published, but you know, if I can get it done I'll get it done But anyways, we're going to go down my mom and dad's house My sister's going to meet us there and it's going to be my sister my mom and dad myself and my husband Jay And we're going to have like seafood dinner that were we took take out that my sister's going to pick up on her way down And spend some time with my dad. So Yeah, it'll be it'll be a special day. So I hope you all I hope you guys are all healthy. I hope you all well Stay tuned for my sunrise. I appreciate every single one of you. Bye guys Good morning world Sun is going to come up right over there I think dawn is such a pretty Pretty time of day nobody on the beach When I walked down I saw one set of footprints One set Could have been someone that had the same idea as me Come out try to catch the sunrise Just so pretty Love the landscape that The tides create On the sand The ripples Look sometimes I wish I was an artist or painter So I could paint these moments Or these little scenes I mean, I don't know if you could pick up this water running Ever so slightly right here I can't see it but Little bubbles of water Those on the side When the tide comes in It fills this whole place up to where That lighter sand line is over there To see go Right out there I think it's where the sun is going to rise Oh what you got We found lunch The shape of it It's going to be a hot day today I'm just like over here by the The rocks a little bit It's so special It's so special Being able to See The sunrise like that The world is a beautiful place Even though it's going through some Ugly times right now it is a beautiful place Trying to walk over here Without falling Oops sorry I'll give you a little bit of a better view Of it rising Good morning Mr. Sun And good morning To the whole world From the east coast Of New Hampshire Well the east coast Of the United States Overlooking the mighty Atlantic Ocean I'll scan the beach for you guys It's still pretty empty Just a few other people that got up early In a couple of hours this whole Well the tide will come in so it'll be less sand But there's still a good amount of beach here in Hampton But in a couple of hours this will be all full of people And I will be at work I'm working in our Exeter office today So I'm actually going to leave the beach To go to work in Exeter And then I'll be coming back this afternoon So pretty so pretty Some sunrises are just unbelievable because the whole sky turns different colors This one's a little bit more on the muted color in real life I'm seeing a lot of pink and orange And it could be because it's just so hot It was hot yesterday and it's Going to be in the 90s today You know that there's some haze over there So also there's no cloud covering You know that sometimes when you have a lot of cloud covering and the sun is rising It's really pretty because it's very dramatic in between the clouds Thursday everyone happy Thursday There she is I'm dramatic But I'm still I'm still happy I came down and watched it I'm dramatic for sure But isn't it pretty? Too funny these are my footprints when I walk down here I'm disturbed At least I'll be able to find my way back to where I parked my flip flops, right? Unless somebody took them I didn't walk a straight line that's for sure That's very typical of me Jay says I can never walk a straight line Are my shoes still here? Oh, yeah I see my flip flops I'm disturbed And I slowly make my way back up over the sand dunes To head back towards the campground Really love it this time of the morning These cones were put here for Social distancing purposes COVID-19 So you could have a one-way path Down to the beach It's actually a pretty short walk from my motorhome From where we're camping here at the state park Pretty well the only people that use this path are the campers actually Those folks that have reservations to stay at the state beach Whether they're at the campground like I'm showing you right now or they're in overflow in the parking lot Only campers can really come over to this section This is sort of like a little community section for those people that May not have a lot of fun sight that want to sit by the river This is the mouth of the river And overlooking Hampton Harbor obviously And out to the mighty Atlantic over there It's actually a very small, small state park There's only like 28 sites that are inside the campground Which makes it almost impossible to get reservations in the season Almost impossible That's the bridge into Hampton Harbor and Seabrook Harbor With my motorhome I see I put all my furniture away at night some people leave theirs out Which I try to put mine or pick it up anyway, so Mine's all folded up here A little fire pit My table My chairs My view where I came from


This systematic review examines the evidence and experience of service user and caregiver involvement in mental health systems strengthening in low and middle income countries, as well as models of best practice for evaluation of capacity-building activities that facilitate their greater participation. The review found a lack of high-quality research and a weak evidence base for the work being conducted across countries, with most service user involvement having taken place within advocacy and service delivery. Further research on this topic is recommended, particularly research that includes more rigorous evaluation. This article was authored by Maya Semrao, Heidi Lemp, Roxanne Kingjad, and others.


Tryna go natural Welcome to my channel. I'm overdue for my winter stash flash I don't even use much you guys know winter is my shortest season because I spend a bit of it in Trinidad This month I said Trinidad, I guess really Trinidad-y, but anyhow, um, yeah So I basically just have the passion fruit and the flax line from she sent it which I reviewed already The honey's hand made which I'm about to review and one other product from she sent it Which is the Royal Honey and Adrien hair mask I'm gonna give you like a little quick run through I guess I'll spend the most time on this one just because I don't have a full review coming But I'm gonna keep a kind of brief this season And just let you know what I like and what I didn't and what I remember but each one I guess yeah So the passion fruit and flax I was super excited about I did a full wash day Starting off with the detox which I loved Love love love like I still kind of almost want to say I getting chills thinking about it My hair was just clean soft moisturized defined Condition just felt like everything happened in one product So I'm just like you know ten minutes of sitting or whatever everything was just Angels and buddies were chipping Angels singing like it was good So definitely pretty good to sing this loved it loved it loved it loved it to the max New staple, I just love it I don't know if you get that before but for me was kind of like a clear mask except Less messy, but it still felt like defined and moisturized and conditioned and everything it has the plastic It has the activated charcoal. It's a very very smooth consistency So it's not grainy at all and it's not messy at all. I just love everything about it We'll be purchasing for sure black Friday. I feel like I use the passion fruit and flax hair mask Which I also loved I love a lot of she sent the conditioners So I guess it wasn't as mind-blowing as the detox, but it was just as good my hair felt juicy Which is like the ultra hydration for our children porosity here like mine I like that she's making all the conditioners kind of rich and creamy or all her newer deep conditioners Really rich and creamy smells really nice and it's typical. She sent it sweet fruity candy It's kind of sent I will fold them all and I will also be repurchasing this for sure as well So I think this one and the pomegranate DCs are my new favorite DCs home She sent it so far. I want to say I haven't tried all of her new ones But of the new ones I love those two and I think I want to say even with the old ones I love those two just because a little goes a long way in the new ones more so than the old ones Which are lighter plus it still gives you that juicy Hydrated deep condition here that you know and love from she sent it Y'all know I love she sent it So she said it will be seeing me as it will always see me every Black Friday Then we have the leave-in which is a winter special passion fruit and flats leave-in It's a winter special because it's glycerin free and this is one of the few she sent it leave-in so the glycerin free So definitely, you know did the wonderful she said the things moisturize my hair define my hair Slip was amazing like with all her products even the details master slip is amazing One of those things I give them but I love in particular that this is glycerin free and I will definitely be purchasing it Just like you have a she sent it leave-in to use in the winter So it's light, but it's not like the lightest average to a creamy as well It has that free said it smells a little bit lighter than the condition which is good I guess since you're leaving it in then we get into the curly finding jelly, which for me was a bit of a disappointment but In a way like it's my own fault because the main jelly ingredient is carbama, which I don't like But I picked up my fast self and bought it anyway, and then it did carbama things big surprise, right? It has carbama in it so it did carbama things which for me means like I'm putting it on right here And when it starts sucking the moisture like my hair starts feeling kind of wonky like when I use equal-styler Extreme red light on it. It just does that this has great ideas as well around the carbama Which kind of compensated so my hair was still moisturized and it wasn't like a complete itk But it wasn't like soft and super moisturized and hydrated and stuff The way I want a natural gel to feel this is the first one of the day that I'm not gonna be Purchasing but like I mentioned if your hair is silky you wouldn't shouldn't have much of a problem with this because this affects my Courser here like my hair up here is more wiry and cause my hair in the back is more silky So the silky part of my hair stays soft and moisturized and shiny and everything when I use this It's just like the coarse powder kind of has a student. It did give my hair some definition and everything It just didn't feel luscious So yeah, I almost forgot this cream wins. So I really like this cream wins as well This is like a rinse on conditioner I almost put on it just because I don't usually use conditioner and that's happened to have bought it and we that's not good And I was like, I'm gonna use it as a leave-in or something so I bought it I have to use it as a leave-in. Appreciate the problem. I liked it I think I used it as a leave-in just before I went to Trinidad So I'm gonna see if I find those pictures in Instagram to post but I did like it Definitely is moisturizing conditioning lots of slip and everything I could see myself repurchasing it to use either as a rinse-out or as a leave-in So one thing with conditioners if you're using conditioners as a leave-in any conditioner You have to make sure you work it in really well most of the leave-in because it is not really necessarily meant to work as a leave-in But once you work it in well can even give you an extra boost of moisture and so on I want to do a video on that. I guess I don't know if you guys care But how to use rinse-outs as a leave-in and which rinse-out should use as a leave-in and stuff like that Because I do use them as a leave-in sometimes but not all and you know you have to know the tricks and stuff So if you want to see more about that let me know. I have one at least one video I think the pump guide and pair conditioner uses a leave-in so I have at least one video up of me Actually two. Two videos up of me using she sent it rinse-out conditioners as a leave-in Because I have one with the papaya conditioner as well. If you want to see more about that Let me know But this was an ethnic win as well and I would definitely recommend this product as well I don't usually go right through with the same line I usually like mix and match all the time like I use a different conditioner deep conditioner leave-in and gel I did it kind of twice in this stash because I did it with the passion fruit line from she sent it And I did it with the honey tan man. I used this peach and Jean-Kyne worry punishing hair mask to deep condition I used a blue rose cocoa rose creamy shampoo to cleanse Which I love and it's kind of one of my staple shampoos so like this on the basket room Urban plants are like my staple shampoos. They moisturize and cleanse my hair without stripping I use this which isn't new which is why I'm not really featuring it super hard in this flashback because I'm focusing on new things But it's a love and then I use this peach ginger and keen worry punishing hair mask So even though it says replenishing it's not super like protein treatment strong hard and stuff to me It's more moisturizing if you don't like too much protein. Don't be scared I did use most of it after shampooing and I want to say what most honey's handmade deconditioners I can't really say it'll goes a long way which is probably because of how natural and light Reproduction which I like cuz I like natural and I surely like light on my ultra low porosity here My hair felt moisturized my hair felt soft It wasn't super juicy like with the passion fruit and flask deep conditioner But I probably even felt softer like to the touch than the passion fruit and flask because my hair is like Most of my hair is really coarse and wiry so it actually feels rough to the touch But after this part of my hair just felt silky and smooth for days. I'm gonna say for days I mean for real like slam anyhow. Oh, it smells amazing too I love it It's like peach with a little hint of ginger like it makes you want to find some peach ginger something to eat to be honest Like it smells so yummy The only thing I would say about this is I wish it had a little more slip The slip was okay for already tangled hair, but it wasn't anything I would detangle with Of course, you know, I can always wish that it went further So that's the only downside I would say about this So I think I prefer the other deconditioner I tried from her which I'm a link because I think it's like in my previous Stache videos, so I may link so I probably won't be purchased this just because like I said slip wasn't that great It didn't go that far and my hair didn't feel juicy but my hair felt silky and ever and I really silky which is a plus and It was moisturized and everything and soft and everything and conditioned and everything so I would definitely Recommend it if you like the butters and you get moisture and easier than I do then I would recommend it And it could be perfect for you and these are the ingredients for that So next I use this peach ginger and you know, I leave in the leave and I really liked again It says strengthening lotion, but so far it seems like a normal even to me It's not great. Just like you do see that peach ginger kind of scent But I feel like it had more slip than the DC it moisturize my hair Define my clothes nicely and just smell amazing and was really nice to use and left my hair feeling like super Soft and silky just for that. I would repurchase this it may not have given me the most definition ever in a leave-in But I like the other things I also love just how simple she keeps her ingredients like I really love that about her products on the whole line the leave and I use this coffee coca-cola in custom So of course after I mentioned on Instagram people came in telling me they loved it as well But when I opened and I saw it was a really kind of light cream I did get a little nervous, but it turned out to work really nicely It has a nice kind of coffee coca-cola scent or more coca-cola scent I guess it has a bit of a kind of grainy stuff I don't know what it's just slightly slightly grainy to the touch, but it works in really well And it does add some slight hole in definition, which I like this is it in my hair right now This is the whole body's handmade wash day still in my hair so you can see my hair feels soft moist rice definition is there And it's cute, you know, so yeah, so that's custom didn't nicely for me for like a gel free wash I was worried about not many hole, but definitely I do feel a very light hole I love it my hair feels super light and everything but still feels like there's a little bit of hole Like it got you just a little bit. That's my perfect no gel wash and go and this is it That's gonna actually be my new favorite no gel wash and go and it's coming to you with this coffee coca-cola Encusted and I guess the whole lineup because if you conditionally left my hair Soft and with seal kind of smoothed cuticles, which probably helped everything else and the same thing for the leaving Soft seal condition cuticles, which probably helped this perform as well If you are one of those who like a little bit of hole in your twist outs and stuff I recommend this combo for that as well So then we don't know this is a little harder to see but I'm gonna get in there and see if you can see it And last but not least we have the Royal Honey and Argan hair mask So I did enjoy using this my hair was like my shrines and conditioning everything It just wasn't as juicy as the pomegranate pear and as the flaxseed So I don't think I'll be purchasing just for that But again, if you don't have crazy low-prosting like me, you definitely love it and I did enjoy using it as well So let me show you the ingredients She's at a point in general. I have a lot of fruit extracts Which I like and this product was a little bit low on fruit extracts I noticed that and my hair kind of could tell so the honey was there But it wasn't really enough I guess to counteract the lack of fruit extracts So my hair didn't feel moisturized but not super juicy where I know that there's ultra penetration happening I didn't like it But I probably won't replace it because I think I prefer the passion fruit and flaxseed and pomegranate impurity conditioners But if you guys have tried all of them like all three of them, let me know which one is your favorite So I do think if you have normal or even regular low-prosting like not ultra low-low You probably enjoy this as well So that was it what I used this winter I'm looking for another season of stash at the end of spring as to what I used in spring And I'm kind of feeling excited plus I haven't done my flaxseed gel So I think I will be trying on the products this spring I guess so look out at the end of spring to see more little flash reviews And of course look up all during spring to see reviews as I try things Thanks for watching and I'll see you in the next one. Bye


Today I'm gonna be showing you guys five different ways on how to lace the classic Adidas Stan Smith.  When you put the shoe, fresh out the box and sneaker head terms, dead stock means brand new, fresh out the box type thing. Everybody has their own little definitions, but at the end of the day, this is what the shoe looks like when it's brand new. So as you can see right here, if you pull the laces up from behind the tongue, you have the dead stock knot. Now you can do one of two things. You can just take the knot and just pull it back behind the tongue like this and then wear it and it'll kind of sit right above your foot, or you can unlace it and have it a little bit looser. But that gives you that really clean look. You don't have the laces sticking out, anything like that. A lot of people like that when it comes to a more sleek shoe like this on the Stan Smith. So let's go ahead and check out the on foot and then we'll get into some more styles. After seeing what that looks like, let me know what you think down below in the comment section. Now let's take it to style number two and that is going to be the bow tie. So simply what you're gonna need to do on this one is untie the dead stock knot and you have two different options here.  So tie the knot and then loosen the shoe a little bit. That way you got a little bit of leeway right there. And then from there, you have the bow tie look right here on the shoe. Now for me, I like to wear like this a little bit more loose but some people like to put it a little bit more together and actually lace it all the way to the top and then put the bow tie. So what we're gonna do is take the right side here, run it through the left and then we're gonna take the left side and run it to the right right here. Now, if you see on the laces, you can see that this side on the left side goes over the right side every single time. So you wanna keep that when you get to the top and you don't wanna lose that unison cause it starts to make the laces look a little weird.  So this is gonna be your second look, a little bit more put together and I'll show you guys what this looks like on foot as well. So let's go ahead and get into that real quick. After seeing that style, let me know what you guys think down below in the comment section. Is that something that suits you a little bit more? Now for me, I like to wear my laces super loose so what I'm gonna do is actually unlace it and I'm gonna pull it out and kinda have a little bit of slack right here. Make the lace tip kinda run a little bit down to the midsole. You don't want it to be dragging on the floor or anything and then from here, we're gonna loosen up the rest of the shoe. So just gonna pull like this, three fingers and you see how the laces evenly distribute as we do that and we got a little bit of slack here. Now, this is more of the loose style, more relaxed, different environments, cause for different type of lacing. If you're gonna be chilling on the beach or something like that, you might have them laced up like this but if you're walking into a meeting, you might wanna lace them up a little bit. You know, you got a little bit skinnier of a denim on or whatever it may be. It all kind of varies depending on the outfit as well but for me, I think this is one of my most go-to styles when it comes to a lot of sneakers. So let's go ahead and check out the on foot and then we'll see what you guys think. After seeing that look, is this something that fits you a little bit more? Let me know down below in the comment section. Now for the next one, we're gonna need to unlace the entire shoe and we're gonna go inside out on this one simply because this is how the shoe normally comes but a lot of people like to unlace the entire shoe and then relace it back up in a similar style but with that outside in look. And to me, it's a little bit of work but it is a really great look. So we've unlaced it, we have the bar in front of the front. Ooh, I can't wait to get into the bars later. So we're gonna take the outside right here and we're gonna come inside like this. You see how I'm pulling it through and I'm keeping it flat as I pull it through. We wanna do that throughout the entire shoe. So same thing here. Run the lace, make sure it's flat. It's just gonna give you a way better look. No matter if you go with that same style but keeping the laces flat, I don't know if it's a sneakerhead thing or what but I'm sure a lot of my sneakerheads in the comment section could tell you that is like a very important thing. You gotta keep the laces on point. Like see this right here? You see how it's like turned up like that and it's crossed? We don't want that, we wanna flatten it.  It looks a lot more, you know, put together in unison. So we're getting close to the top now. Let me show you guys real quick. So you got a couple of options here when you get to the top. You can run a bow tie like this and it'll come from the outside in. It'll look like this. We'll loosen it up a little bit. This is what the shoe will look like. I'll show you guys the on foot. Or you can go with that same type of vibe and you can run it here to the outside like this and have that loose vibe but just with the outside in fit. So it's gonna be like this and then we're gonna loosen it up and then we're gonna have that same type of look. I'll show you guys both looks on foot as well. This is kind of more my style but again, to each his own. That's why I'm here to show you guys all the options. After seeing that style let me know what you guys think down below in the comment section.  I personally prefer kind of both in different situations. So for me, honestly, I'm not mad at either one. Now let's get into one of my favorites. The bars. So what you're gonna wanna do is make sure the laces are evenly dispersed throughout the both sides and start with the bar right here going from the outside in.  It's gonna be opposite. So we're gonna go odds and evens or whatever you may say. So this is the second hole.  Just like this. And I'm gonna go up to the fourth hole behind it. Boom and pull through directly across. You guys kind of see the pattern right there, right? So now what we're gonna do for this one, since this is in the first hole, we're gonna go to the third hole, pull through and go directly across to the third hole. And then we're gonna have to go underneath that, pull through. You guys getting the trend here, right? So we're going from the third hole. What's that mean?  We're gonna go across to the fifth hole. Everything's just kind of matching going across. Again, remember we wanna keep the laces flat. Now from the fifth hole to the seventh hole, pull that one out. Fourth hole to the sixth hole, just like that. Straight across, just like that. Boom. Now we're gonna tuck this lace here and then the one that was in the seventh hole, we're gonna come directly across to the seventh hole here. And then we're gonna tuck those laces inside and this is the bars. This is a very classic look. We don't see people rock this too often anymore and I think it's really, really clean. Again, I can't wait to show you guys the on foot, so let's go ahead and get into it. So that's gonna do it, guys. That's five different options with a couple different twists. Let me know what you guys think down below in the comment section if any of these are suitable for you. Again, you know I like that loose style but there's definitely a couple key clean looks when it comes to a sleek shoe like this.

Welcome to the FBI's second least popular division, the Unusual Incidents Unit.  Any of you here because you told your superiors the truth and they didn't believe it? Ah, just one. Well then, I'm going to need to make a demonstration. You see, the UIU is a joke, but not for the reason you guys think. I'm sure most of you will recognize this is the Desert Eagle. It's loaded with fifty caliber bullets, so seven rounds in a magazine. Let's count them out. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven. I could keep going, but I'll hand the magazine around so you can see I'm not using a slight of hand. So, if what we're investigating is real, why are we a joke? Because we're way out of our depth. You guys aren't trained for the sort of stuff that we're meant to be investigating. Of course, you do get really good bereavement benefits. Pop quiz. How many rounds are in that magazine? Nope. The guy I found it on thought it was limitless too. It holds one thousand two hundred and ninety-six rounds. He ran out while shooting at me. Now for the terminology. We deal in carts and cans. A cart is a confirmed artifact, an object that does not belong in this world. A can is a confirmed anomaly, an event or area that involves something impossible. A can man is a person who is anomalous. These tend to be particularly dangerous and you'll probably find someone else is there looking for them. We're not the only ones dealing with this stuff. When you're out on investigation, keep your eyes out for other interested parties. The suits. Men in suits, sunglasses, the works, your stereotypical spooks. Men in black. If you get a chance, keep eyes on them. They're bastards completely untrustworthy, but if they give you an order, you follow it. They work for the government, apparently, and they outrank us. The fireworks. Militia groups. Highly trained, sometimes armed with carts. We figure there's more than one. We've seen them fighting each other.  Then they leave. And we have to cover it up. Don't try to interfere without backup and be aware that they are better equipped than us. They're dangerous, ruthless, and vicious, but at least they're honest. If they give you an order, follow it.  The cart shoppers. Marshall, Carter, and Dark. They're an auction house and a gentleman's club. Their customers are extremely rich and tend to have rather disturbing tastes. Official policy is to rate any known cart dealers, but you should be very careful around Marshall, Carter, and Dark. Their security forces don't want to make a scene, so wait for backup before going in and you should be relatively safe. If they give you an order, well, decide for yourselves, assuming you have free will at the time. The can collection. They call themselves the Serpent's Hand. They often interfere with the action of other groups, generally to free or protect can men. They are happy to use artifacts and have very little interest in secrecy. They understand anomalies better than most because most of them seem to be anomalies. Do not confront them in public. You won't win, and the suits will be annoyed by having to clean up your mess. If they give you an order, consider following it.  And finally, the guys we actually get on with. The Skippers. You'll know they're there. You'll see something in labels, soap and care products, superior consumer produce, sudden career possibilities, or a security for corporate profiteers. They're not trying to hide from us just from the public. The Skippers are well trained, know what they're doing, and they're helpful. Their aim seems to be similar to ours, find anomalies quietly, and get them under control now in the public eye. If they're there, then the problem's probably out of your league, but you can go introduce yourself if you like. If they ask you for help, well, they'll make sure your family are looked after if you die, in addition to the standard bereavement package from us. If you receive a call starting with, hey Skipper, it means there's something that they can't be bothered dealing with. It's almost certainly a minor artifact. Those things help us keep our funding, so make sure to take Skipper calls seriously.  I once took orders from a pizza delivery guy, didn't even realize he was from Spicy Crushed Pizzeria until it was all over. That is why we're a joke.
