I'm saying even the base cards of those players have to be random, not whether it's one person gets all of the base of that player. Probably do that, yeah. Otherwise, they're sort of the Chippers of Heaven. I'll put them to the side. I'll make like a separate stack for anybody in college. The good college players. If you do one random that it's like one person gets all the CJ strata, one person gets all the bricks on whatever. Perfect. Yeah, we'll just do that. We know it goes to someone. Someone gotcha.

He has three cards on this side. I pulled two of the Nebulas. I'll say a tie-dye coming up here. That's going to be Juan Doscano Anderson, 15 out of 25 on the tie-dye rookie. Congrats on that one. There you go. Appreciate that BF. You should have nerfed it. It might not be out yet, honestly, because I know it wasn't out yesterday, so there's a potential, like, it might not be out. Another tie-dye here, maybe on Mitchell. No, we don't, but it's pretty nice. We got a Jason Kidd auto going to the Suns. Nice one there, Phoenix. Congrats. Congrats on that one. Lebron, unstoppable.

Next up, we've got another half-gaser of this.


I've been finally trusted again with a sponsorship, more about that later on in the video. If I was to describe to you how this lake became virtually empty without photographic proof, you'd think this video was some kind of early April Fools episode. This subject has been on my to cover list and is regularly suggested to me, but I've always put off doing it as I felt that I might not be able to do it justice. You see I find mines impossibly fascinating, in that the amount of engineering skill required to dig into the earth to find rare and raw materials is immense. But unfortunately I've always found it difficult to explain the vastness of the labyrinthine scale of some operations, but I realise that today's disaster actually works to show just how much space even a modest mine takes up. So much space in fact that a drilling accident would inundate the Jefferson Island mine, causing most of the lake to just disappear in 1980. Thus my issue with mining subjects and the Lake Panier disaster seem to have solved themselves. My name is John and welcome to Plainly Difficult. Today we're looking at the Jefferson Island mine inundation, better known as the Lake Panier disaster. It's now time to talk about my sponsor, Private Internet Access VPN.

As is customary on one of my videos, we must set the scene and understand the historical context of today's subject. We start many years before 1980 in 1894 with an actor hiring a contractor to attempt to drill a well near his home in Louisiana. He was called Joseph Jefferson. In his day he was a noted actor and had purchased an island to live on 12 miles west of New Iberia, Iberia Parish along the shore of the freshwater 1300 acre Lake Penier. As an interesting side note, Jefferson was an acquaintance of both actor John Wilkes Booth and the man he killed President Abraham Lincoln. He had built his home around 1870 before his ownership the island had the name of Orange Island. His name was given to the island upon beginning drilling for his new well. His contractors reported discovering rock salt at roughly 300 feet during the summer of 1895. The contractors continued to drill down to a depth of about 2000 feet. Frustratingly, they were still encountering rock salt but this would be a potentially profitable discovery. You see salt is valuable and it was known to exist around the lake. The five islands in the area of which Jefferson was won were actually salt domes with a rock cap. Now the islands aren't actually islands but instead just high spots of land. Jefferson would die in 1905 and just over 10 years later the island would begin to be used for its valuable salt below. In July 1919 two men drilled multiple holes all over the island to map the salt dome. In October of 1919 Jones and Bayless, the men who had investigated the island in June, organised the Jefferson Islands Salt Mining Company. After a failed attempt to dig out a shaft in 1919, the company attempted to dig a second shaft but issues with water ingress would delay the project by another two years. Over the coming years the operation grew of a pillar and chamber method of excavation. This method is very common in the industry and involves mining a grid pattern leaving pillars behind supporting the mines roof. Initially the complex of tunnels were made up of an 800 foot deep level and by the 1930s production had boomed to over 200,000 tons of rock salt per year. The chambers were 90 feet high and 75 feet wide. The mine was extended with a new level a thousand feet deep with an incline in 1940. Instead of chamber and pillar a shrinkage method was used on this level with the salt mined in horizontal slices from bottom to top. The remaining chambers on the 1000 feet level were 100 feet high by 65 feet wide and were lined up below the chambers of the 800 feet level. In 1957 the mine was sold to the Diamond Crystal Salt Mine Company and operations continued increasing production. The mine was extended with a 1300 feet deep level and an air shaft in the early 1960s and in the 1970s a 1500 feet level was added. As the 1970s came to a close the mine had a roughly 290 strong complement of staff. The site worked three eight hours per day seven days a week. The extracted salt was transported away from the lake via barge along the Dow Canberra Canal and the intercoastal waterway. But the Diamond Salt Crystal Mine Company wasn't the only show in town when it came to digging around Lake Penier. And here we are introduced to the other participant in our story and I'm sure you'll probably know the name. Texaco had been exploiting the area's oil and gas reserves as such multiple rigs peppered the land around the lake. But as we all know this is never enough. Texaco was looking to expand operations in the area during the 1980s and the only way to find new oil reserves is to get your drill out. Okay not that type of drill. Texaco acquired a license from the state covering an area encompassing the entire Lake Penier. The company's mode of operation was to contract smaller local drilling outfits to do the labor intensive work with Texaco handling project oversight, well-planning and license acquisition. After it got its license 124 in 1980 Texaco contracted two companies, Wilson Drilling Corporation and Grafton Drilling Co of New Iberia to drill two exploratory wells named P20 and number 35 respectively. Both these wells were located close to the crystal mine with P20 on the lake around 2100 feet from the mine's main shaft entrance and number 35 1200 feet southeast and 400 feet inland from the lake shore. The plan was to drill down to 8000 feet on both wells but although similar depths the wells had a pretty important difference. P20 was on the lake thus needing all support for it to be waterborne. Number 35 was on land so it's much easier to supply via road with trucks. P20's location had been surveyed and staked out in October 1979 and allowable maximum amount of relocation east or west was set to be at 150 feet without any obstruction. The route to the proposed well along the lake bed was dredged and pilings were driven to form the base for the rig in June 1980. Wilson Drilling Corporation in November 1980 began installing their rig at the well site. This installation was called number one. The crews scheduled to work on the new well would do a 12 hour shift followed by 24 hours rest period on land. This was overseen by a tool pusher who lived and worked on the rig for a four day on off rotor. Multiple crews manned the rig on their 12 hour shifts forming 24 hours of constant drilling. This was overseen by a Wilson supervisor who was also then overseen by a Texaco foreman who would do seven days on and seven days off. There were two of them and they made all the most important decisions. By the 18th of November the well was nearly ready to be drilled. A 16 inch conductor pipe had been driven into the lake bed the day before. Drilling begins. Day one of drilling began at 6pm on the 18th of November and was to run for 12 hours to 6am on the 19th. Initially all went well in the first shift. 61 feet per hour was drilled for the first 10 and a half hours. At a depth of just short of 500 feet a survey was made and it was found their work was within one degree of being perfectly vertical. By the next shift book on at 1800 hours on the 19th of November the whole was at around 900 feet deep. With both mud pumps working progress seemed pretty good but not for long. Pump number one's clutch burnt out necessitating drilling operation to slow right down. At around 1090 feet another survey was undertaken and it was found to be 0.5 degrees off vertical. At 1248 feet the rig would encounter another problem. Their drill had become stuck. Just before 5am the Texaco drill foreman was woken up and the issue with the drill was reported to him. The crew tried to rotate, lift and drop the drill but no movement was seen. The foreman told the crew to increase the thickness of the mud. As a side note drilling mud helps with drilling efforts and also helps to remove the drilled material from the hole. By now both pumps were working again and they pumped the thicker mud which then increased the pressure on the hole. The load indicator started to show a heavier weight than the 78,000 pounds on the drill bit. It climbed to 240,000 pounds. The wire on the drill bit was sacked off dropping it to a much more acceptable 40,000 pounds. This relief was short lived as the weight climbed again to over 100,000 pounds. The next crew took over at 545 and not long after a rather worrying sound rumbled from the rig. Much to the confusion of the crew the weight of the drill bit rose further to a massive 400,000 pounds aka the weight of donuts I would like to eat in one go. The confusion would move over to worry as the rig began to tilt. Texaco and the drill company, Wilsons, were notified of the now bizarre situation. Both companies decided on an attempt to level the rig. Apparently it's not uncommon for the pilings to slip thus making a platform uneven. The rig continued to lean. Seeing this as definitely not normal the foreman ordered all crew to abandon the platform. The crew cut loose the barges that were moored to the rig in an effort to try and save the equipment aboard. At roughly 7.25 in the morning the rig overturned and began to sink. Eyewitnesses were shocked to see the rig completely disappear below the waterline. Something that shouldn't have even been possible. As a lake at its deepest point was only around 12 feet. Well where do you think it might have gone? The mine inundation. Whilst the leaning rig was being abandoned miners at the crystal salt mine were just beginning their shift. Obviously they didn't know about the impending disaster that would interfere with their plans for the day. 48 workers were on site and leading up to 8am they were spreading out amongst the various levels of the mine. On the 1,300 foot level worker Junius Gadison was collecting electrical equipment. He noticed something that no one in a mine wants to see. A 2 foot high torrent of water approaching him. He raised the alarm and evacuation of the mine began with men being hoisted to the surface in the lift. Wilford Johnson on the 1,500 foot level went up to the 1,300 foot level to investigate the water but was soon forced to escape by the ever increasing deluge. The evacuation went pretty smoothly with one of the 4 men using a pickup truck to pick up workers in the deeper more extreme regions of the mine. By 9 o'clock in the morning everyone was clear. It was an absolute miracle that no one in the mine or the rig lost their lives. Although no one was lost a whole lake was having a go at trying to disappear though. A quarter mile wide whirlpool formed over the rough location where the rig was. It sucked a tugboat, a string of barges and two Texaco oil rigs into the abyss of water. Two boaters on the lake managed to power their boats to shore just showing again the sheer luck of everyone involved. Over the next three hours the entire lake disappeared into the mine. Usually the lake fed the Dalcambra Canal to the Vermilion Bay eventually heading out to the Gulf of Mexico. But during the disaster the flow was reversed taking water from the sea and filling back into the lake and this went on for several days. The air shaft became a mud cannon as water pushed out all the air from the mine showering the surrounding area with thick muddy water. Nearby residents were evacuated and personnel from the Iberia Parish Sheriff's Office, the Louisiana State Police, the Vermilion Parish Sheriff's Office, Dalcambra Police and the State Wildlife and Fisheries Department was drafted in to help with a growing amount of people becoming displaced. Eventually the water pressure would equalize and of the 11 barges that had disappeared into the whirlpool seven returned to the surface. As an interesting side effect the silk content of the lake actually increased but not from the mine but actually the backfilling of seawater from the Gulf. This would also change the local ecosystem. Aftermath Although no one died three dogs were reported killed but the big question was how did a well-established mine get breached by a pretty well-established drilling company? Clearly something went wrong. We can likely rule out coincidence as the drill on the rig got stuck between 1200 and 1300 feet deep. Funny enough it was the 1300 foot level of the mine that failed. The timeline of the rig sinking and the inundation also pretty match up fairly closely. Clearly this points that the two events were actually won. Interestingly the mine had been suffering subsidence for at least 10 years leading up to the inundation. The instability of the mine was being actively monitored. Assuming the maps were correct and Texaco was drilling in the correct location disaster still could have resulted because you don't even need to physically pierce the mine. Just weakening an area around it is enough to cause structural failure. Like if you went to the beach and tried to dig a hole in the wet sands besides just keep on crumbling. The 1981 report into the incident did stop short of giving the actual cause mainly due to all the evidence being sucked into a massive hole. But subsequent information hints that Texaco had misread the charts taking the transverse Mercator projection coordinates for universal transverse Mercator coordinates. Understandable we've all been there. This seems the likely cause as they were not expecting to have to dig into the salt dome. Which was the same thing the drill bit got lodged into. Although no official blame was put on Texaco we can guess this was the widely accepted cause as the company would be the one to stick their hands in their pocket. And they must have been deeper pockets than mine as contractor Wilson Brothers and Texaco paid out $32 million to the crystal salt mining company as well as a further $14 million to a local botanical garden. Which was also damaged in the inundation. Where you would get 82% off plus 3 months for free and a 30 day money back guarantee.

So I know that we're all trying to process the last mass shooting in this country Assuming that there's not another one between the time that I record this video and upload it to YouTube But for a second I want to go back to the previous mass shooting and have this conversation once again About white supremacy because I think this is too important to ignore So the reason why the gunman Shows to go to a black neighborhood and kill those people was because he believed in the great replacement Conspiracy theory which has been pushed and mainstreamed by Fox News and many prominent conservatives So there's a poll that just came out by Yahoo news and you gov and they asked Trump voters How many of you believe in the core tenant of the great replacement theory? This isn't the actual phrasing, but this is what they were trying to gauge The number is going to absolutely shake every single person who cares to their core because it is Astonishing to me as the hill explains more than 60% of Americans who voted for former president Trump agree with the core tenant of the great replacement theory According to a new Yahoo news you gov poll the poll published on Tuesday found that 61% of Trump supporters agree with the statement that a group of people in this country are trying to replace Native-born Americans with immigrants and people of color who share their political views 22% of Trump supporters surveyed said they disagreed with the conspiracy theory Meanwhile, 16% of respondents who voted for president Joe Biden said they agree with the statement while 71% said otherwise 73% of Trump supporters agreed with the statement that there is discrimination against white people in the United States and 18% disagreed compared with 20% of Biden supporters who agreed and 74% who disagreed 69% of respondents who voted for Trump said that they are concerned US-born citizens are losing Economic political and cultural influence in the country to immigrants while 30% of those who voted for Biden agreed with that statement Now we'll talk about the main takeaway from this poll Which is the 61% of Trump supporters that are buying into a white supremacist conspiracy theory But I have to touch on this 16 percent 16 percent of Biden voters recent Democratic Party voters Who are agreeing with the core tenant of a white supremacist conspiracy theory? That number shouldn't even be one percent. It should be zero percent, but anything more than one percent in the Democratic Party Should shock everyone and it's at sixteen percent That is not an insignificant number more than one in ten Biden voters believe in the core tenant of the great replacement theory What does this tell us? What is the lesson? The lesson is that white supremacist conspiracy theories are very quickly going mainstream enough So even Democratic Party voters who usually aren't receptive to these types of messages are buying into it and fascism it takes hold because Normies get convinced that these types of things are actually real for example Victor Orban the dictator in Hungary He really consolidated power by doing populism now when I say populism I'm not talking about popular policies that a majority of citizens love I'm talking about populism in the form of weaponizing hate Making hate popular cracking down on LGBTQ plus students LGBTQ plus teachers more specifically so he decided to ban any talks of gender expression and Sexual orientation in schools in Hungary and then guess what happened in the United States Oh, look at that Ron DeSantis Florida governor potential 2024 presidential candidate decided to do the same in Florida And you think that since we've moved on as a society and have changed our opinions about LGBTQ plus people You know voters in Florida would reject that he'd lose popularity, but guess what happened? He got more popular Even Democratic Party voters bought into the don't say gay law Because fascism it takes hold and its popularity will shock you I know you think that it's inconceivable But it is very very popular because it's not just sold as hey Do you all like fascism and want to be fascists? It's sold in a covert way. It's sold in an insidious way and Because this is how it operates Well now white supremacist conspiracy theories are being Eaten up by even Democratic Party primary voters 16 percent 16 percent now 61% of Trump supporters believe in the core tenant of the Great Replacement Theory and Trump is the Republican Party So the majority of one of two Major parties in the United States the only two parties that are electorate electorally viable one of them is Completely white supremacist. They've bought in to white supremacist conspiracy theories. I Don't think people can comprehend How destruct of this is For society for democracy what this means for modernized people people of color black Americans going forward That's 61% of the base of an entire political party Believes white supremacist talking points. It is absolutely Astonishing to me, but I can't say that I'm shocked now It's worth pointing out that Weaponizing hatred using it as a political tool is a very very effective strategy for capitalists They want to distract you from the fact that elites in this country are robbing you blind your wages aren't stagnating because of your employer Exploiting you your wages are stagnating because of immigrants. They're driving down, you know The cost of labor for everyone blame them don't blame your capitalist employer and on top of that You see the way that they're attacking public education Having an uninformed populace is very useful for neoliberals. It's very useful When fascism comes into play it's just We are in such bad shape as a country that I genuinely do not know if we can recover as a country And I don't know what that means. Do we remain a country the states start breaking off and seceding What's gonna happen because it's so bad that it's unsustainable and the trajectory that we are on is just non-stop violence in this Country we're already seeing more violence every single day But having it become a more common phenomenon is an inevitability at this point if things don't change for the better But the problem is that for the people who want things changed and they want a revolution of some sorts at this point We're having a revolution the problem is that the fascists are winning that revolution and we need to be clear about that The fascists are winning the political revolution in the United States of America Don't pretend as if that isn't the case don't pretend as if Donald Trump doesn't represent all Republicans Acknowledge that the fascists are winning in the United States of America and now They're spreading fascism globally. We just saw CPAC Hungary. There's gonna be CPAC in Brazil in mid-June So we're seeing Literally the formation of a global fascist movement People still are pretending as if things can change in this country by Hoping and praying I guess and and voting harder. No Things are getting really bad in this country and we're actually beginning to get to a point where it's time to get Americans out of certain states It's time to get Americans into different countries and have them seek asylum in Canada or other countries because This is not sustainable and I know that that might scare people or seem overly doomer But I'd rather you be scared and prepared Then just kind of have fascism when it becomes Explicitly and overtly violent hit you in the face. I want you to expect it So That's where we're at do you enjoy watching independent news shows like the humanist report the rational national and the majority report But oftentimes YouTube doesn't deliver our videos to your subscription box.

Welcome to Toffy TV, this is the Everton News Day. It is believed Everton have bid in the region of £14 million for Southampton midfielder Pierre-Emile Hoiberg. Lot of talk about this last night that started with a £25 million bid, then it came down to an £18 million bid and it was then revealed by Paul Joyce, who is normally very good on these things that the bid was in the region of £14 million. Southampton obviously looking to do business for the players in his last year of his contract. Possibly looking to bring players in on in a swap deal, there's been various young players mentioned with this deal, likes of John Joe Kenny possibly. Also Spares looking at the player as well and obviously they've got a Spares player on loan at the moment. Could that come into the reckoning for the player? Well after waiting to see, he's a talented midfielder in the style that we don't have at the moment. Someone who's a bit of everything, obviously started with buying Munich. Never actually played under Carlo Ancelotti, but he actually left as some of the Carlo Ancelotti came into buying Munich. Someone who's done very well, someone who was the captain of Southampton. That's been taken off him now because of the situation with his contract. We'll have to wait and see. He's obviously someone Carlo Ancelotti wants to see him as a good fit, at a good price. I do think he's the kind of player that we just don't have at the club. We have a lot of very similar players in midfield, so we're going to have to wait and see. As I mentioned, they've looked at him. He's someone that they would like to bring in their midfield. It's not going to be easy to get him. He will leave Southampton, but obviously we'll have to wait and see. If Spares can offer him European football, he's a very ambitious player. He said he wants to win the Premier League and he wants to win the Champions League. He's got high ambitions and we'll have to wait and see whether we can convince him. That'll be the first part, if we can get him in a room and convince him to sign forever. That'll be the first thing. We'll have to wait and see. The government have said today that fans could be back in stadiums by October if everything keeps going the way it's going. I don't know exactly what they mean by that because we've still got some cities in lockdown and the potential of a second wave. They're saying all things as they are could see fans back. We don't know what that means in terms of how many fans back. Would it be full stadiums? Would the way fans be allowed in? Would it be a small number of fans? How would that work? Would it just be seasoned ticker holders? Would there be a lottery system? Would Goddison Park even be considered to reopen with the facilities it has? Obviously it's a very old stadium. We'll have to wait and see but a lot of football fans will be quite happy with that. Probably thinking that it would be maybe closer to the end of the year or maybe possibly 2021. We'll have to wait and see this and it's a government making promise. It means absolutely nothing. We'll have to wait and see if it actually happens. It will give fans hope for the new season, which isn't that far away, let's be honest. Once we get done with this one it will only be five, six weeks before we start the new one. So we'll have to wait and see. Obviously after last night's 1-1 draw, Carl Angelotti's come out and showered praise on Jared Blanthwaite. Obviously he came in after about 15 minutes of the game when Mason Holgate went off. He said he's got a great future and he can be a fantastic player. And with Holgate probably out now for the last two games. Yet he means a big doubt as well. Why not put him in for the last two games of the season and let's see what else he can do. I thought he was fantastic last night under pressure. I thought he was good on the ball, he defended well. Yes of course he made mistakes, certainly giving away cheap free kicks for holding shirts and things like that. But he's a young lad and he's getting his first taste of Premier League football. This is a lad who came from Carlisle after only playing a handful of games for them. Praise indeed from Angelotti. He's already showed it, hasn't he Gordon? He'll put players in if he thinks you're good enough, he'll give you a chance. Big opportunity for the end of the season now for Jared Blanthwaite to ease himself into Premier League football. To start a game away from home and then start a game with Gouldersen. Yes there's no fans but that could be something that helps them as we move into next season. It could save Evan a lot of money. He's obviously left side as well which is a big bonus for us as well. And we've been obviously linked with Gabrielle who's a left footed centre back. This could save Evan a lot of money. And we could possibly put that money into areas where we really need it, like centre midfield. Seeing it with FFP problems and there is talk out there that Evan needs to get rid of a couple of players just to sort the wages out before they bring players in. But if we're not having to bring some players in because we've got the players like Blanthwaite then that's a massive bonus. So we'll see what happens on Monday when we play Sheffield United, whether he gets the start. I don't think there's any point in rushing players back now. There's nothing to play for but pride. I don't think we can go into the top half. I think the objectives now is not to lose 11th place as sad as that is. But that's it isn't it. So I'd certainly just give them a couple of starts if other players are injured. So we'll see what happens anyway. That's up to Carlo Antolotti. There you go. This has been the Everton News Daily. I'll check out the final words from the Aston Villa game. Make sure to check out the match preview for Sheffield United. That will be going live over the weekend. And make sure to check out our interview with Janik Balasi as well. Fascinating insight to the player and the injury problems he's had since he signed for Everton and how he hopes the future goes and hopes he's given a chance. Check that out. Really good into you. Honestly really good. Really shows the human side of a footballer as well because we don't see very often these days. So there you go. Give this video a like, subscribe if you haven't.

So, we are here to hopefully learn something new or to gain clarity on the things that you already are doing but haven't been aware of. And the purpose for today's workshop goes two ways. For me, to help you learn how to craft better selling messages, elevator pitch, whatever it is that you're doing. And for you to learn and implement it towards your job so you can better present and sell yourselves, your businesses and the offer that you have. Because whether we like it or not, we all sell. Whatever we do in our private or professional life, we sell. I really struggle with it for a long period of time because I don't think of me as a salesman or salesperson. But in order for me to be here today, I needed to sell the idea. And it was good. And we are all here today. In order for you to be the best version of yourself, you need to sell yourself to your employees, to your colleagues, to your family members, whatever it is you want to share. You do it in the form of selling. And sometimes it's good, sometimes not so good. And hopefully by the end of this workshop, we'll gain more clarity and focus on what it needs to be done to succeed in that. But who am I to really talk about it? Yes, I've been in the business of digital marketing for a little over 14 years. I started as a hobby, then years of freelancing, outsourcing services, and from 2015 I have my own digital marketing agency where I consult in regards to story selling, content marketing, copywriting, social media strategy, you name it. But is this introduction relevant for you enough? I could do one even better by saying I'm a consultant who works in digital marketing environment, helping brands and people present themselves better so they can sell themselves or their offers. And this is something that I created by doing this exercise that you will be doing today that is called So What. So here goes a brief introduction before you start doing the work. I will help you along the way. That's why I asked you to come closer so I can step out and try to help you the best possible way. So let's say you are a developer, business owner, or your content creator. And the idea you have is to present things that are important to you that you care a lot about to the people that you are trying to sell it in hopes that they will care enough. Well, wrong. People don't care. Not about you, your services, your offers. They only care about themselves. So whenever you are thinking about presenting yourself to your future employer or pitching that new development idea or thinking about selling your offer, you need to step into your client's shoes, your ideal customer shoes, and to think why is it important for them to talk about whatever it is that you are trying to offer or to sell. This is something that goes along to the story features versus benefits as well. And this exercise, So What, will help you clarify those key benefits in regards to your target audience. So what exercise is really, really simple one, and it is one of the most used copywriting exercise and formula, so to speak. It tells you to ask this question as many times needed in order to get more focus and clarity in your mission statement, selling the statement, whatever it is. So let's say, OK, I said I told you I'm a digital consultant. So what? Who cares? I mean, we all do it one way or another. You always need to put yourself in your customer shoes to come up with the ideas, why would that matter to them? Or you are having some new software putting in place. Why should people care? We have so many sponsors out there, and I took my time to see their promotional packages, and it really sparked some interesting conversation. I will share that at the end.  And mostly people who don't use it lack clarity, focus, and that clear conversion. And this is something that I want to help you change today. So the purpose of the SOVA exercise is for you to undo all that clutter that you have in your messaging to really be not just visibly the best version of yourself, but outspokenly the best version of yourself.  And in order to help you furthermore, because again, some of you might use this exercise and didn't know that you are using it. I want to tell you two more examples. So let's say we have a new software to improve efficiency of our data workers. So what? Like, who cares? I, as a future customer of this software, I don't see any relevance for me or value. Why is this important? Okay, our best team worked on it for several months. Again, who cares? Like, it doesn't matter. I don't care who, no. I do care who made Yoast because I'm their true fan, but for somebody who's not familiar with them, who cares who are the people behind some tool? Okay. So what? Well, it's the most advanced technology and no one still has it. So many companies use this kind of information when trying to tell about their product and services is still totally irrelevant. Nobody cares. I don't care. So what? Introduces data research by 50%. Okay. Now we are getting somewhere. By doing this exercise, either for the external target audience or internally for your team, it really declutters and forces you to focus on what's important. So you can have clear messaging and understanding. So just by doing this, you can further play it around and say, hmm, tired of doing overwhelming tasks? Do you want to take the time to get the data 50% quicker and have the rest of the time doing something else? Come join us and try test out our new software. Try out version seven days a week and so on. So you can really play around and get that message that really resonates with your target audience by doing exercise like this or the other one. We need to publish 30% more blog posts. Something that I as content editor hear all the time from my clients and I say, okay, so what? And most of the times my clients don't know why they want this. They see their competition is doing this and they say, okay, if they're doing it, I need to do it. But okay, that's for some other talk. Okay, so that we can increase organic traffic. Okay, but again, why does it matter? So what? By doing that, we can generate more leads. So if you are in the position to be a content editor and working with your employees on conducting more content, you can explain them by doing this. You will get more opportunities for any future leads that come from your site. All from this like simple plain exercise, so what? But then I came late yesterday, so I didn't catch the justice talk, but I heard it's about sustainability. This exercise can be connected with sustainability as well and decluttering because you will have clear statements. You will know what you are talking about. You won't be using all those fluffy words and you won't be bothering your websites with overwhelming, unused, unvaluable information. On the other hand, I use Yoast as an example as well. And this is the time that I need to say they are not paying me. I am self-proclaimed living, breathing number one fan of their tool, which is more than a tool. It's a partner for me as a content marketer. People say they are like all sorts of SEO tools out there. And I say, yeah, okay, but SEO Yoast is not a tool, not for me. And this is someone speaking from the user experience. For me, everyone can come up with the SEO tool. But the difference and the thing that they do well, they help me not only in the on-site SEO part, but as well help me keep my message clear, concise, and on-point with the propositions and rules that Google implements and asks from us as content creators. So they are not just an SEO tool, okay, we are SEO tools, so what? We not only help you conduct SEO, but we also help you learn why you need to do something in that manner. So they are not just an SEO tool, they're knowledge-based tool for all people who use internet and blogs and websites to communicate with other people. And if you come across their site and their blog, you can see they really, I don't know if they use that exercise or not, but it's shown, it's visible throughout their content. So this was the brief introduction to the exercise. And now I will ask you to pull out your computers or pens, notes, whatever you have.  And if you get stuck, I'm here to come to you to do quick briefing. And then I will ask you the bravest ones to share their assignment with us. And again, if you have any questions, I'm here. Just think of the ideal customer or person you are talking to while doing this exercise, what it is that is relevant to your target audience in regards to what you're trying to sell. Not so hard. Ish, I already see one person who I will ask to share their assignment. That's the trouble when you know the speaker. They always come to known person. Yes? Would it be a nice idea to practice it with someone sitting next to you who you don't know? Okay, yeah, that's- To do the so-what exercise alive. Okay, who would like to volunteer? Like Jennifer Lawrence. I volunteer, I volunteer. Who will be my Jennifer Lawrence? Come out or I will pick someone right now. And you don't want that. She is volunteer here. Yay, thank you. You're welcome. Nice to meet you. Monique, nice to meet you. So what is your idea? What I sell, I mean? Yeah, what would you like to me? Well, what I usually say to people is- Sorry. Oh, that's nice. Thank you. What I usually say to people, if I want them as my client, I tell them I can help you keep your website up to date. I can help you make your website so that you can provide good content because I know that you know what you can win. And I can make the structure to help you do that. And I can also help you check it. And it should take you about one hour a week after I'm done. Okay, so, and you do what? I sell websites with small business owners. Okay, so you are approaching.  Any small business or do you have a particular niche or industry- No, no, no, no, I go to a lot of- Yeah, but there's a saying that says, if you sell to everyone, you sell to no one. So, and this is not my saying- The only niche that I'm getting into in some kind of ways, I do get a lot of coaches that want to work. Okay. Do you want to add a little content? Niche and they are growing bigger by the day. Yeah, true. You can really- Somehow I always attract those and builders. Okay, yeah. The last talk to me. So, those are the kind of niches that I'm getting forced into right now. Yeah, and that's great. Side point, niching down whatever someone talks that is not important and it's a fluff world, the world it's not because it helps you declutter and focus on what's important and what brings you the most revenue and conversion. So, by knowing this, like you can focus your business towards people that are high in conversion. So, let's say you are selling, so you are providing websites for, and how would you approach them? Like, still for me, once you told your story, it wasn't clear.  Oh, so I asked as well. Okay, so full service. Yeah, okay, so- That's it. It is full service and when they provide content, I usually read over it so that if they're, I don't know, if they bake pancakes, they won't go into, they won't be found for the pens itself. So that's kind of what I do. Oh, of course. I have them along, they don't have a Google My Business yet. I tell them, well, get a Google My Business, get your reviews on there. So I can put your reviews in the website, so that's usually the organic way that it goes. So you say, we are a full service company for building your websites and online presence. And they could, someone could say, okay, so what? And then you can say, so that you can have ease knowing somebody's taking care of your online presence and you have spare time to do what you do best. Leave your things to us. Like security of knowing we position you well with the website presence and you do the rest. Yeah, exactly. Yeah, so it's a shorter, more focused version of the thing you told me. Would you agree? Absolutely. Yeah, so does anyone else want to chime in to try to do this live exercise? No, why are you so scared? I'm not biting, like it's totally, it's like sitting in the living room. Walk up to someone and say, what do you do? Yeah, yes, do that. And while you're doing that, just. What do you do? Okay, I know your e-mail is probably. You? I did something, no, I didn't. Tech, tech? Oh, okay. E-mail? Thank you. Yeah, you can talk, whatever is more comfortable to you. Okay, come on. A round of applause for this brave man. My name is Ivana. My name is Berkei. Thank you. Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you too. What do you do? What is your idea? What do you want to sell? I got a little company. I'm a software developer and I have a little company of mine, yeah, developing software and yeah, myself, I work in nine to five at a company. And yeah, what I'm doing is mostly I look at problems I face myself and then yeah, I look at opportunities, what I can do better to solve those problems of mine. So I'm a product, we're just still in development and what I do with it is I'm lacto intolerant. Okay. So if I go to a restaurant, I have difficulty finding things that I can eat, like for instance, for instance, I go to Onnem and I look at a place where I want to eat. I normally don't know where to go. So, for example, McDonald's. I don't know what to eat there, what I can eat. I need to ask someone or look up an allergy board with all those things. And it could be a reason for me to not go to a place because I just can't eat there. So what my product does is it gives the user, you have the option to look it up easily. Yeah, so your product has basically two different kind of ideal customers, ones end users, people like yourself and the other ones are such restaurants because they will benefit from it and talking about the theme of this conference, inclusivity, so they will become more inclusive by using your tool.  So I have a software company that comes with solution to a problem, two generic, so what? I provide resolutions for problems that I face, okay, so what? Then you can reframe it. Do you want to have an easy meal? Knowing you want to end up in the hospital or with the sore throat and stomach ache, then use our app that will show you around where to eat lactose tolerant food, something like that. And by framing it that way, the people who are your target audience will immediately see the value for themselves and ultimately you will be able to sell them that product better but also to offer it to all those restaurants and hotels and to everyone who has a team of people feeding them, this is something that can be very beneficial. So some free advice for you. Yeah, thank you very much. You're welcome. Thank you. Yeah, so like we are improvising. I don't know him, I don't know, like this is something from top of my head and but I like those kinds of things. This is something I do on all of my coaching sessions and education that I do. So are there any more people interested to share their tasks or to come up and to do a live performance as well? You see, it's not that hard. And I'm all up to it. I slept only for three hours and I'm totally like, yeah, this is waking me up. Yes, yes, thank you. A round of applause. Even I see me too. I see me too. I'm Sophen, I'm a local and I'm working for a company that produces websites as well. While we do programming in plugins for WordPress, of course, and Elementor. Okay. So we produce plugins that help to improve the workflow when working with WordPress or Elementor. Okay, you lost me. I have no idea what that means. I mean, I totally, what do you mean by workflow? It's too generic and too broad. So people might get confused. I'd like to give an example. One tool that works with Elementor. Elementor is a page builder. Yeah, I know that. You know that. And you open a website in Elementor, a page where you work in it and you say, I'm finished. Well, I could need this. And with our tool, you make a copy of it. It loads directly into Elementor. You don't have to leave it before you leave Elementor. Go to the pages. This is the page. I'm going to open it. And this improves the workflow. Okay. And the learning curve for knowing Elementor and how things work. Would you say it's easy? I would say it's easy, yes. For someone who is not coming from the development background. It's a shortcut. It's one click and it's finished. Yeah. So that's very easy. So your target audience is who? Do you have a specific industry you're selling to? Developer for websites that work with Elementor. That's our target group. And what would be the main difference from, let's say, Gutenberg, who is also block-based? I do know something. Yes, of course. It's true. The target group is users for Elementor. You can't use a bit of Gutenberg. There are other tools that work with Gutenberg. But with Elementor, you leave the usual back dashboard from WordPress. So you're in a completely different area. So we like to help to work there. Within the dashboard and the... Exactly. When you work with Gutenberg, you're in Gutenberg. You work there, but our tool can't work there. So it's target Elementor. Very specifically, yeah. And the reason why I'm asking you this is so that we can get more clear message in... The differentiation is the exact thing that will help you be more clear with targeting people you are trying to. That's why I asked so many questions. And this is something that you should practice in your day-to-day businesses. Always ask questions. The more you ask, the more you will know. And you will be able to differentiate that. And in regards to your... Okay, so we are a software development company who provides you quick, easy website solutions. Okay, so what? Everyone does it. Yes, but with our Elementor One Click solution, it can be as easy as one, two, three, and you're done. So let's say if you know how to use word processor, you'll know how to use Elementor and you're done.  So something along this, it's easy. It's quick to learn, it's fast. And it's something different. And still, it saves you a lot of time and energy so you can transfer that to doing something else. Does that sound okay? That sounds very good. Thanks very much. You're welcome, thank you. So... Also, as we are approaching to the end, I wanted to share while you're still doing these tasks, a few more questions that can be beneficial while performing these or similar tasks. Always ask, whom do you sell to? Who is your ideal client? Because the more you know about the person and the people that are aimed for your offer, then you will know their struggles, their issues, their disbelief maybe. And you can tackle all that in defining the more clear message if you can provide the answer for all of their worries. What value do you provide? Again, this is something that should speak to your target audience, why does it matter? And you won't know the answer to that question. If you don't know who your ideal customer is and if you don't know who that is, you won't know their struggles and issues and you will get yourself in the circle not knowing what to do, let us write up whatever just to put it out. And why you? What it is that sets you apart from your competition? What it is that you offer better in the latest example when I asked what's the differentiation between you and Gutenberg? So you need to always ask yourselves or your team members questions in order to get more and more information. Like the first example, data mining, the more information you have, the more options and versions of useful answer you can provide. So these are the sub-questions, additional questions you can ask apart from so what to get that clear, concise and a message that resonates with your target audience. Now, so-and-so, is there anyone else willing to maybe share their task with us if finished? I'm looking all over the room. Maybe you. Yeah, I sense. I know you're a bit nervous. Question. Oh, okay. You can then ask me. Now this is, let me see how much time do, okay. So this is something I wanted to share at the end, but thank you for anyone who's interested and this is me coming at myself now because I want you to talk freely, but until the end of the day, everyone who is willing can share their tasks with me, look me up on Twitter, send me a DM and I will work with you on briefing and getting clarity on that task and that message. So you have by the end of the day, this is my nickname on Twitter, so you can like, I'm totally open, just ping me and I will help you all the way. Other than that, who is ready to share their task or their idea with me on the stage? We have a little more time, why not? One more, just one more. Let us see who is, or I can maybe, yes, you, yeah. Thank you. Boys are very brave. I don't know who tells they are not, but they are. Ivana, nice to meet you. Ujwal, nice to meet you. Ujwal, okay. So. Mike. Yeah. So what we do as an agency, I'm part of CMS Mines. Okay. And we help agencies globally with their development needs. So it's a vital partnership. Okay. We are flexible in working with them. As some of the agencies need us to do the design, some will ask for plugin assistance, for some we will do the whole development. So it's flexible with each agency, but I target all agencies, agencies globally, whom we can partner and support with them. Okay. So you are like an outsource for them when it comes to website development and plugins and all that relevant things? For the support that they need. For the support that, yeah, okay. Again, it's a bit generic. You need, the more specific you get with your messaging, the easier it will be to convert people. So that's why I'm like, it feels like I'm attacking, but I'm not. I'm just trying to clarify my thoughts and my propositions and advice. So you can say, okay, and there are a lot of agency, companies that do similar things as you. So white label, it sounds like an overused word nowadays. So you could reframe it and let's see. Again, I'm totally doing it out of my head. Let's say, this is an interesting task. Challenge, yeah, challenge accepted. So you can say that you are a secure partner and do you have a specific industry of agency that you target or is it broad? So it's marketing and web design agencies. Okay. So you say we are same as development company, we do white listing, okay, so what? We are your go-to design, production, development, production, development, department you lack in order to be a full digital marketing development agency.  So you are there on the go partner and the right hand. So something like in the areas of that. So you really, you are not bragging about yourself, you are not talking in the sense of something that isn't there, but you are just reframing it in a way that speaks directly to those agency and to see with more clarity why they need you.  But white label, yes, thank you. English is not my native tongue. So by using phrases differently, you can also spike up in regards to your competition. Does that make sense? Yeah, it makes sense. So I can say, I can help you and your agency bridge the gap to be a full stop development solution. Yes, you see, you see. And now they don't need to ask again, so what? Because they know what you provide for them. And you took yourself out of the equation. If there's any, one thing I want you to take out from this is that you really remember it's not about you. It's about the people you're talking to and you're trying to sell to. And this is excellent. Thank you, thank you very much. Thank you. So yeah, we came close to a final five minutes. And with that, I want to thank you and to say, to look me up on Twitter, Instagram or TikTok, yes, I'm present there as well. It's a very powerful tool to use, whatever business you are on, no matter what some people say, but TikTok is really, really powerful in getting the message spread exponentially faster than any other social media tool out there. So we came close. Does any one of you are willing to share their assignment with us if you finished? Yeah, Val, thank you. You want me to read it? Yes. If that's okay. And she's also not my native, so I'll read it. Okay, so I wrote this WCNL exercise, which is the taco. And I said, I help my customers to have a relevant social media presence that offers engaged audience, creates leads, and builds a motivated team, internally, but also ambassadors for the brand. And you came up with that statement. Or in your speech. Yes, but how did you start? Let us go backwards. What did you do? My possible customers are companies or people that need social media presence. But then again, it's very generic. Everyone wants to be a social media. So then I said, okay, what should be the differentiated between everyone having an Instagram or Twitter handle? And I said relevant. Relevant means creating content that actually speaks and responds to possible needs people have. Not only that, but say, okay, people read or like or they look at your video, but they also want to be engaged, meaning, oh, it creates a reaction. I want to ask people right now because I saw the video she just put on TikTok. How exactly are you doing that? Because on TikTok you can show one minute video like very snapshot of your... Up to 10. Yeah, but how many people do that? More and more, side notes, pause. Why I recommend TikTok? Because TikTok is becoming, or it already became social media surchanging tool. So they are doing what Google is doing. So if you want your presence online to be spiked and to be even further abroad to more people, you can implement the same basic SEO principles you use for Google, for TikTok as well, and to see results. Thank you. And then I would want to say further, saying that it creates leads. So it's not just people like your posts, but actually, at least express their interest in buying your services or progress. And then also a motivated team internally because if you're in police, so you need to have influences inside the company, or if you just yourself, of course, if I'm gonna apply for me, in my case, I have a big company that I work for. So I need my internal people, all the teams, to know, oh, we're just creating a new, whatever, product or feature. I'm gonna ping Val, see who can share in the social media because we saw all those steps, people already reacted, they sent up lead, I wanna buy this thing, and so on. And also ambassadors for the brand. So if you have users who already purchased, I'm gonna say, oh, I'm gonna share that. It's like, you mentioned yours and all these features. If you like them, you don't need to share. How are you going to do this, I'm just... Totally okay. I don't use the old records.  And how useful was this task? So it was very challenging to narrow it down because I wanna bring in more text. Yeah. You know, being president of a workshop, so. I think using the last words that have meaningful notification is better for marketing these days than having five pages of blog posts which nobody will read. I usually go to a video, for example. I rather watch 60 seconds of meaningful video, even if it just slides with text because it stays in my brain and reading pages and pages of, this is why I'm so great. Yeah, we're the best in the world, and I know we're not the best in the world, but I looked at source code. So thank you for that, actually. This exercise is something that you can find useful both in textual and video, audio, any form of content, any type of content, to be exact because it's, and thank you for this great addition. It really helps you clarify in more depth and more importance your messaging. And you can really try to use it in whatever form and type of media to share it as well. It will still resonate. And, but still, I need to debate one more thing. Long form text. People who are interested and people who need what you have to offer will read a book if it comes from you. So it's all depending. It's all depending on the customer journey path step you're in. So if you are on the first step, awareness, and in the consideration, you are tempted to read more about it, to get familiar, to gain that credibility and trust. And then once you come up to purchasing decision, then you need more focused, narrowed, and shorter version of conversion to help them buy from you. So it's a bit of challenge and it's a mix of using both. So thank you. We are coming to this very end. So I thank you for your patience, for your willingness to learn. And I applaud to all of you for sticking to the end and sharing your thoughts and ideas with me as well. Thank you.

Hey everybody, welcome back to magic orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a magic review Hey today, we're gonna look at kung fu foot from Hector Mancha and vanishing incorporated. What is this? Basically, it's a card stab, you know You throw the deck of cards up in the air and you stab the one that the spectator selects However, this time you're doing it with your foot. You want to see the trailer? This is it Hi, I am Hector Mancha world champion of magic, but I am not a magician at all. I am more like a One card trick, okay? Take one card This one look to the look look look it put inside a deck and shuffle shuffle I'm going to try to find your car, but with my foot Okay, give me the car What was your car six of hers? Look All right, so that was Hector Mancha that was kung fu foot Brought to you from the good people down at vanishing incorporated a couple questions We always ask about all of our magic reviews and the first of which is what's in the box? What's in the box? You're getting a real box. It's a big slide out drawer box because inside that you're getting the entire Rig, yes, it's an entire rig Kids that you need you're also going to get one sample Discard card cray and then you're going to get the download code to the 41 minute video. Is it what I thought? You know what? I didn't really even know what to think on this one It was just interesting and funny. There's a humorous advertisement to watch and gave you a chuckle And so I was really looking forward to seeing how Hector solved this puzzle How are the angles the angles on this are pretty clean You certainly don't want anyone behind you, but I think Hector would argue that this trick is really more towards Stage you're not doing this trick and walk around you're not doing it in Street magic You could do it in Street magic, but I would I would say you could only do it once Okay, so sometimes the stage magic it's kind of rigged and set up so that you can perform it one time And this is definitely a one-hit wonder. Can it be inspected? Well, like I said, it is a stage trick. Okay, or it could be a party trick. You could do this at birthday parties This would be a fun thing to do. I think at kids birthday parties. They would certainly they would laugh I think kids love socks and smelly feet and jokes like that. So I think this is definitely Right up that alley, but as far as it being inspectable, I will add I will say that it ends dirty Okay, it ends very dirty and this is part of the reason why the setup takes so long to do or the reset I would say and so but Hector does give you a funny Clean-up option, but it's not really inspectable. In fact, the card's not really even inspectable afterwards You kind of have to tear it to get it out of the rig What's the overall quality and production value of the video? Like I said, the video is 41 minutes long. It looks like Hector's filmed this entirely in his white Bricked garage. There's no Microphone and there's no background music. So it is kind of echoey Hector does have a very thick accent and I've watched a lot of magic instructions especially with teachers that have accents and I would say Hector's is definitely on the thicker end and it was Hard to understand at times It's all done like I said in this garage There's like work boots and old bicycle and fireman equipment in the background too. So it's interesting Hector does give you a couple of other Shots so you do have multiple camera angles and he spends a lot of the time on the DIY and the rigging What's taught on this video? Like I said, you're gonna get this big DIY portion There's cleanup obviously performance and etc. Is it well made it is well made And Hector does give you one crucial piece that you need that is kind of the homemade part But there are a couple of other parts that you probably already have in your closet or your magic drawer Or parts that you could find easily from a magic store So there are there are some familiar parts and then there's this made handmade part that goes together But everything is well made how much practice does this require? I think it is simple it is a simple trick and I think most of the practice has to do with with timing Okay, so there is a lot of timing involved and of course you want to make it look natural There's nothing worse than throwing the cards up and then they all fall down and then you go for the card Stab that wasn't work and then the opposite is also true that you do the card stab while the cards are really high up in The air so you kind of want to have to time it just right so that the effect looks perfect How much setup and reset is there like I said a little earlier there the setup and reset on this are extensive It is a rig. It's a full body. Well, it's a half body rig Everything from your waist down is really rigged and it's not clothing optional. Okay, so you do need specific Pieces of clothing you do need pants. Okay, obviously you can't wear shorts and you can't wear tight pants Okay, you have to wear loose fitting Pants pants, you know chinos or khakis or something like that would be fine Jeans are probably fine.  All right. So what are the positives to kung fu foot Hector Mancha has made the classic card stab Funny, this would be great for comedy stage magic or people who work birthday parties negatives All right, so one of the negatives, you know, like we say right here. There's negatives to everything These are just the negatives I see they don't have to be the negatives that you see Like I said, lots of reset lots of reset. So again, just know your audience know your performance area and There's dirty work involved at the end. Is it worth your money? It's 30 bucks 30 bucks And like I said, there's some parts that you need and there are some parts that you probably already have This probably could have had a lower Price point if Hector had put more diy into it for you on your end Maybe that would have made it a little bit more affordable made the packaging a little bit smaller. Maybe That could have been done, but it wasn't done. So this is what you got So but I do think that you know, especially for a 41 minute video. This is definitely in the right ballpark tricks today They're all in within the 20 to 30 dollar price range. So I think this definitely fits who would like this Like I said stage magicians funny stage magicians funny stage magicians party magicians people who do Party magic or at least that you know, they're going to perform this one time All right, so that is kung fu foot from hector mancha and vanishing incorporated as always I want to thank murphy's magic supplies for allowing me to have this trick so that I could do the review for you And if you would like this trick for yourself, you can find it from your very favorite murphy's magic dealer. Thanks. Bye

That's right I'm excited to see what Costes does going forward. I think he has true like Masha potential man. I think he's a long-term DH eventually. I think he's just too big To play first. He's six six And you're playing first. Yeah, I should be either like outfield or like Somewhere in the he's too bulky to play outfield though. Like he's just that big So I think once he once he grows more. It's gonna be like, okay Devers goes the first Costes DH and then Plays Jordan at the if you pans out That's a nice. That's an idea. That's a nice idea. But Long ways from there That's the infield though. Devers Costes Meyer a little bit Bobby Miller recover. Come on. Nick dork. Get better get better again Carlton left the order 50 for the Phillies Those hits are just insane We still have better the better part of three boxes left here.

Yeah, he was an average defender So he was great at trash talking and making threes All right top ten of all I think he's overrated And card he's underrated. I can believe that for sure There's a lot of guys that are like all timers like like reggie that are underrated Oh 100% Because everybody goes for the top like six seven eight guys and then the rest are like in that's one like That's that's Elaine's put it pretty pretty nicely there That that's a good point. That is a good point Why is Franz Wagner on the all-time list?  What are they thinking? No respect Daryl Armstrong is a top point guard of all time one of the point guards of all-time Daryl Armstrong canvas judge Yankees autograph to 10 max freed for a lana nice one Yeah, Dwight Howard not being honest is is an actual joke is insane because like He had pure dominance with Orlando I should he gave him enough.
