Hello everybody! Watch this video to find out how to recover data from a RAID system based on a D-Link NAS device model DNS 343, how to create a RAID, how to configure a network connection and how to add a new shared folder. These days, D-Link routers and modems are well-known all over the world, but this company also produces home and office storage systems such as network-attached storage or NAS for short. Most of the time, these devices are fully compliant with industry standards and do not differ much from similar products by other manufacturers. And to the same extent, they are also affected by risks of data loss due to hardware failures or errors. Regardless of the actual manufacturer name, all NAS devices are vulnerable to damage of failure, just as ordinary hard disks used in desktop computers and laptops. Unfortunately, this is what happens sooner or later to any hard disk actively used on a daily basis. Just like any other NAS, D-Link devices let you use a number of volumes, unite several disks into one and manage network access to the storage while providing sufficient reliability and security for your data. Although a network-attached storage unites individual hard disks into RAID arrays, which are more reliable in terms of keeping your data for a long time, it doesn't completely exclude the risk of data loss. Attempts to restore data from NAS devices with the help of various data recovery tools are not always successful. Some tools can only recover a part of the data, while others may even damage the information still remaining on the hard disk. To avoid this misfortune, you should be very careful in selecting the proper software for the job. In today's video, I'll show you how to choose a good data recovery utility to use with the NAS device and how to recover the lost information. For starters, let's see how you can build a RAID system on a D-Link NAS device. When the device is started for the first time, you'll be suggested to configure it. One of the stages involves building an array with the connected hard disks. To create a RAID system, select the RAID type. In my case, this is RAID 5 made up of three disks. And click Next. In the next window, you are suggested to enable Autorebuild. Click Next to continue. Now, it's time to choose a file system. You can only choose between EXT2 and EXT3. Go for the most stable option – EXT3, and click Next again. After that, the process of disk initialization and formatting begins. If there is any important information on those disks, don't forget to back it up, as it will be very difficult to recover it after formatting. When the volume is formatted, you'll be suggested to restart the device. The disk array is ready. To change the RAID level, set a different volume on Modify it in any other way, click on the Reconfiguration button. To change the RAID level, select it from this list and change the settings just as you did before. If you want to change its volume, go for Custom Configuration. Choose a RAID type, enable or disable Autorebuild, select a file system, and set the array capacity. Then click Next. Wait until initialization is complete. When this process is over, the device will be ready to use. Now, you can add a new Shad folder and configure Network Access. To create a Shad resource, open the tab Advanced – Network Access. Type SMMB or NFS and choose Uses for this directory. You can even choose All Accounts. Then click Browse.  The last step is to add Read and Write permissions and save the settings to make this folder available on the network. Now connect to it by FTP and write the data you want to store in this folder. There are so many things that may cause loss of data. Human errors, formatting or writing information, overshifting, power failures, hardware and software errors, mechanical issues, and even if one hard disk fails, it puts extra pressure on the other disks. So if you overlook to replace a faulty disk in time, it may cause some data to disappear. If you can't access the data stored inside a NAS, you can try and extract the files with the help of specialized data recovery software designed with disk arrays in mind. Hetman Read Recovery Most NAS devices format their hard disks for a Linux family file system. So when such disk arrays are connected to a Windows computer directly, you can't read their contents without using third-party software. All proprietary read management systems used for network attached storage are based on two Linux read technologies. MDADM and LVM. However, Hetman Read Recovery Super is both of them, and in most cases it can rebuild such read arrays automatically. This is a comprehensive solution for NAS data recovery to help you restore your files in a number of different scenarios. This program supports most popular file systems and read types. Take the disks out of the NAS device and connect them to a Windows computer. When the computer to which you have connected the disks has booted, any supporting system asks you to initialize or format them, don't do that, because it will make recovery a lot more complicated. Our utility features an advanced mechanism of automatic scanning designed to identify and recover NAS data in various scenarios of data loss. The program will automatically read the necessary information from the disks which used to make up the damaged array and then rebuild it. The array will be displayed in the drive manager, and its brief information will be shown at the bottom of the window. Check if the program has identified it correctly. To recover files, right-click on the disk array and choose Open. Select the scan type and start it. As you can see, in my case, the program has easily rebuilt the damaged array and found all the files it used to store. It displays all the files, even those that have been deleted. They are marked with a red cross. Select all the items you want to recover. Click Recovery, select where you want to save them, and click Recovery again. When the entire process is over, you will find the recovered files in the folder you have chosen. In the case with RAID 5, the array type I'm using for illustration, data can be recovered from a failed NAS device even if one disk is missing. Another similar scenario is when the computer, where you connect the hard disks for recovery operations, doesn't have as many set-up ports or power supply connectors as you need for every disk, so you may connect three disks instead of four. When a disk is damaged or service information is erased, the program may have difficulty in rebuilding the RAID automatic. However, you can do it manually with the RAID constructor if you know the properties of this damaged array. Open the constructor, select Manual mode, and fill in all the information you know about this disk array. The RAID type, block order, and size. Add the disks it used to include, use the arrows to specify the order, and replace the missing disks with empty drives by clicking the plus button. Also, you can specify the offset that helps to locate the beginning of the disk. Sometimes the program may have difficulty in identifying it infotomatically, so you'll have to enter the offset value manually. Usually, if you give correct properties, the newly built RAID system has at least one partition. Expand it to check for the folder that you need. If the folders you are looking for are displayed, then you have both this RAID properly. When you specify all the properties you know, click Add, and the array will appear in the Drive Manager. To have the array recovered, the last step is to scan it. Find the file you want to restore, select them, and recover it to the folder you choose. And that is all for now.

I do apologize We'll make it up at some later time and maybe do a two-fer Or maybe just an extra day because this show is Monday through Friday a daily like it's daily So maybe we'll do a special Saturday episode or something. It's Sunday or Sunday Yeah, all right, so I wanted to jump right into one of my things today to buddy Okay, so I'm a big proponent of this in fact We've gotten a deal where all freedom family members are able to have the premium perks at no extra cost Now how much will that be each month? Five eight nine twelve thirty two seventy. I don't know. Are you Jesus Christ? That's a lot. I don't know there There are numbers But if you go to TubeBuddy.com should be a link in the description if I get lazy Just let me know and I'll be on lazy in the future Can you be on lazy or yeah sometimes like if you make up for being lazy is it unlike if you want to check that out Please do they have an awesome new feature that allows you to create a thumbnail using any moment in your video as a base Yeah, I used it earlier. Yeah, it was amazing like it was absolutely amazing Especially for a free perk like obviously, you know for a free perk as a freedom partner I thought the tool is pretty good I'll use you for about five minutes I didn't get a lot of time to actually go in depth with it and explore every single asset it had That's pretty cool. I like one thing I really like about the tool is the fact that and this is not an advertisement They're not paying us to learn but The one thing that I really liked about the tool is the fact that it allows you to use like transparent PNG So like you can just like put together Different sections or different pieces of images. So like if you've got like the base thing You can just add text and you can add like your logo and it's cool. Check it out And you had a newsy type whatever all right, so Hypothetically speaking right if you as a freedom partner, right? You join no luck in contract. It's all free of cost, right? You join okay We offered you free games free games right you free games This is the this is this is obviously the first time I'm hearing about this No, you know, you obviously know about it So if you go to the dashboard you guys should already know about this You can click review sponsorships and you're able to claim games for free simply make a review post it up on YouTube in Return you get future games when they're released. Yeah, it's a cool. It's a cool asset It's I don't know that that's kind of boring to me getting games that other people have already made like where's the fun? Okay, but listen listen listen all right Hypothetically if you as a freedom partner got a free tool to make Amazing games where you as a partner could make your very own video game. Would you guys like that? I mean, but I don't do code I don't do You know like anything dealing with words as you can tell because I can't talk Okay, I can't I don't know code either but the thing about it is we've been working with a company I'm not gonna say name yet because we haven't finished it up But I want to say hypothetically if you guys were able to make your own video games with ease Would you like to do that? I mean, I think that's awesome making your own video game like it whether it's a zombie game or a Building game what it whatever it may be. What about the freedom game a Freedom game that's even better like okay, so here's here's what I'm thinking Okay, and somebody's got to make this because I don't have the time the freedom game But here's the thing. Okay, so the freedom game would include George being the guy Who like this is the one who sets up the story, right? He just you know pops up on screen and he's like, you know Get more gems Like there are no views in the game, right?  Oh my god I'm the slender man of freedom. That's the next game. We can make for freedom What was anger is hypothetically if you as a freedom partner partnered with us You guys had free tools at your disposal to make amazing Environment games with ease would you guys like to participate in that? I mean that's that's really the main question I want you guys to answer like scroll down and just let me know what you guys like to make your own game And if you would What kind of game so? This this thing because obviously I know nothing about it. You're great. Thank you So this thing this game thing like I assume that it's like a graphical thing where you can like no code involved No code like Gary's mind, right? It's like a super amplified Gary's Gary's mind.  Yeah, I forgot. Oh, yes, but no my newsy type whatever Now, of course, this is also network news. We will get into More non-network news in other episodes, but I don't know I think Friday is a good day just to catch up with all the network stuff Should we make this a thing every tell us down there if we should make this a thing So my network thingy my network newsy type thing is So over the course of the past six months some of you are aware that I've been trying to bring a Minecraft server to freedom. I've been trying But there have been a lot of complications We've actually hired like three different teams to try to do this and three different teams have failed miserably There's one right now that is promising and there's like some contractual things that we're working out and It's it's a nightmare Not on their part. It's not their fault, but the the current setup is that If this is something that is being worked on I know I know this you hear this a lot It's something that's being worked on.  Yeah, like That wasn't something that I did with ill intentions It was actually all the contractual stuff was supposed to be done by the end of April and then now here It is the the middle of June Just stick with us. We're working on it. I would love to bring something awesome with the map is done Most of the game modes are done at this point It's just you know contracts and dotting our eyes and crossing our T's and what not just the the final leg work.

So you know what? Honorarily since we don't have a clip to share today check out DeSectra link should be in the description down below He does all kinds of really cool content. I believe last time I checked I haven't been I haven't been on this channel in a while Is it battlefield now? Awesome, so yeah, go check him out And and you be active in his comments today That's what I want you to do a couple of general comments that I don't have anything to point to that I've seen Some people are saying that we need a more professional set now that is kind of coming down the pipeline in an evolutionary way Yeah, it's not gonna be a revolutionary thing.

See you later freedom. Bye


Well, here we are at the third Spider-Man homecoming film once again directed by John Watts. When it comes to movies, three is a scary number. You can dread it, run from it, but at the end of the day, it's still gonna hit. And here we are once again with Spider-Man No Way Home. So where does it sit? Is it X3? Is it Blade Trinity? Or is it a satisfying third outing like Lord of the Rings Return of the King? I'm gonna give you my thoughts right now in the spoiler-free episode. That's right kids, this is a spoiler-free video.  You need to see it for yourself. And see it, you absolutely shant. No, shants, that's like shall not. You absolutely shall. That doesn't sound right either. You absolutely shalt. Yeah, that sounds good. I am gonna have a spoiler-filled episode in a day or so, so if you haven't subscribed yet and you kind of like what's going on here, maybe think about doing so now. Spider-Man No Way Home is two and a half hours long. It's a lengthy affair. It runs quick, it runs smooth, it goes down like a fine wine. This movie keeps pace. You're never bored, or at least I wasn't, or the two kids that I took, a nine-year-old and a 12-year-old. We went right after school. It was a decently full theater at 3.30 in the afternoon on a Thursday. And this is a theater that typically isn't very busy. So I think this movie's gonna do very nice numbers for Disney. And you know what? Good for Disney. They never seem to catch a break, do they? It's nice for the little guy to get a win once in a while, isn't it? Also subscribe for sarcasm. Again, Jon Watts is directing, and I will say, as far as this lining up with the other movies, I still think Spider-Man Homecoming is the prettiest looking with some of the more creative shots. I didn't see any real bad fake green screen or anything. It's consistent. It's consistently above average in the filmography department. As for the action, that's an area that Jon Watts I thought in the past wasn't the greatest on, especially when you compare him to Sam Raimi or even Mark Webb. I don't care for the Amazing Spider-Man movies, but the action scenes in those I thought were pretty well done, especially in Amazing Spider-Man 2, which is a bad film. This, thankfully, doesn't suffer from the trilogy curse. I really enjoyed this movie. My kids had a blast, too. The audience certainly had a blast. There were multiple scenes where people were clapping and cheering. It was definitely an endgame style of feel that I haven't had in the cinema in quite a long time. I brought up action. There is a good amount of it, and I do think it's definitely the best out of the Watts trilogy so far. Tom Holland's Peter Parker is definitely more confident in the suit now. He's doing more spectacular things. He's showing a little more of his strength. And another thing I really liked about this one is even though he still has his high-tech suit, this one felt very scaled back in that department. It didn't seem like he had an Alexa driving the thing for him at all times. He wasn't throwing 13 different web grenades out at people. He didn't call in a drone strike via some stark glasses. This definitely felt more like the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man saving the day and not the Tony Stark tech on top of it. The one thing trilogies often try to do is jam in more villains and go darker with the storyline, darker with the tone of the movie. I think this film does a really good job handling all of that, especially the tone of the film, which, yes, it is kind of kiddish still. This is definitely a Disney Spider-Man movie to me. There are some darker moments. There are some sad sequences. Tom Holland puts in a phenomenal performance here as Peter Parker, really getting to show that range and those acting chops off. But yeah, there's still a lot of joke cracking. And as for the plot, I'm not going to give anything away, but if you watch the trailer for the film, the way it presents the story is actually how the story goes. I was hoping that it was a misdirect and that what transpires isn't actually what transpires, but it is. And it's a disappointment to me because I think it does the characters a lot of disservice, not just Peter Parker, but some of the other people. And it's a shame.  Another thing that worried me about the trailer was that the jokes were going to be just cringy as all can be. Thankfully, outside of that Scooby-Doo comment, which plays out better, I think, in the final product, not too bad at all. I laughed quite a bit in this movie. I shared a few ranges of emotions I wasn't even expecting. So even though I don't agree with the overall plot of the movie, the little moments all equal out to something pretty great. It's a pretty special film. And if you like the other two homecoming movies, I couldn't possibly see you not liking this one. I was genuinely worried going into this, but now that it's over, and I've had a little bit of time to digest it, it was very well done. I had a good time. It was a lot of fun. It had some genuine heart. There were some actual stakes in this one. Unlike the other two movies and a lot of MCU properties, I felt some things, some genuine emotion, which is nice. It's good for a movie to elicit other emotions besides, oh, that was cool. Ah, I got that reference. Ah, another reference, cool. Okay, well, that's Spider-Man No Way Home. Easily my favorite of the new trilogy, not quite up there with the Sam Raimi stuff for me. I don't, you know, you can say whatever you want, nostalgia, better days, blah, blah, blah. I just like how those are done. I just like the style. If you saw it, let me know in the comments below. No spoilers. We don't need to do that. I'm gonna have a spoiler video coming up very shortly. You can spoil away in that one. We can talk about it. So subscribe if you haven't, like the video if you had a good time, and hopefully I'll catch you soon. Thanks again for watching. If you like the channel and myself, you know it'd be a nice Christmas present, share this video around for the holidays.

That's an easy, breezy, free way to show your support, and it would mean a lot.


Hi everybody, Andrea here. Let's talk about a four-day work week and why it really works for me and why I wish everybody would jump on the bandwagon and just do it. I do understand if you work for somebody else, it can be next to impossible to say, listen, I want to start working only four days a week, give me a day off during the week, take it or leave it. You know, I totally understand that doesn't always work, but these are the benefits of a four-day work week and how and why it's helped me so much. So basically, life happens, right? If we work nine to five, then we come home, we have to make dinner, clean up after dinner, get things ready for the kids. If you have kids, you know, there's always stuff to do.  Is it nine o'clock? I don't know about you, but at that time I'm exhausted and I'm literally ready to go to bed. Did I do anything for myself? Not really, just working nine to five and then doing household stuff, but nothing truly relaxing like maybe sitting outside, maybe reading a book. Maybe you just want to watch a Netflix movie. Maybe you want to take a course or two. Well, you just don't simply, you don't have time to do that. And it's very sad, but we spend most of our lives working. I forget the exact statistic, but we spend most of our life working and then we retire, let's say age 65 and then our health might not be the best, that we can't really do the things that we want to do. So why a four day work week? Okay, really try this. This means you have a day off during the week to get things done, such as running errands, going to the grocery store, getting food for the week. Maybe you have to get your car cleaned. Maybe you want to go to the car wash.  And then you have the weekend. Some of us have to work on the weekends too, right? But at least you have that day that's time for yourself. Who here loves a long weekend? Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Saturday, Sunday, Monday, where you don't have to work. Please comment below.  I personally prefer a Friday off because I feel from Monday to Thursday, I can get all of my work done, take a Friday off, and then I have the whole weekend. Now, it doesn't really work for me though, because I'm a mobile dental hygienist and a tutor educator. So weekends are truly prime time for both of those things. So I can't really take a full weekend off. But what I can do is take Wednesday, Thursday, Friday off. And it's the best thing ever. Setting your own schedule to be able to do that really is a good thing. You will start to feel so much better and that you're able to get things done. What good is it if you work, say, Monday to Saturday? Sure, you're making money, but you're burnt out.  You're annoyed because you don't have time for yourself either. You're annoyed at other people.  Honestly, money isn't everything. And I say this to people all the time. If I had the choice to make a million dollars a year and work every day, I'd be like, no, I'd prefer to make a lot less and have my four day work week. Because to me, I want to enjoy life while I can. I know that sounds kind of morbid. It sounds kind of silly, but I don't know what my health is going to be like in even 10 years. So live in the moment. And it's hard to live in the moment when you're working nine to five every day doing stuff, just simple stuff, cooking dinner, cleaning up from dinner, cleaning up this, cleaning up that, taking the dogs for a walk or whatever. Before you know it, it's nine o'clock and you're like, hi guys, I've seen you all day, but I've just been picking up after everybody. Hello, how's everybody doing? Oh wait, it's time to go to bed now. What kind of a life is that? That doesn't sound like a lot of fun, right? But going back from before, if you're able to take a day off during the week, you can plan things accordingly. A lot of people like to meal prep, so they like to take one day and meal prep so dinners are faster, easier during the week. Well, if you had a day off, you can do that. You don't have to spend your weekend doing that. You can spend time with family or doing something that you want to do instead. So I really encourage you to try not to think about the money unless of course you truly can't afford it. But try not to think about the money and really go to working a four-day work week. If you think you really can't afford it, then I suggest finding other means to make more money because that will help too. But look at your credit card statements.  That's another video for another day. But if you're overspending, spending too much, spending more than you make, then of course you're going to feel like you have to work Monday to Saturday.  What if you eat out every Friday night? What if you cut that back? Would you be able to afford to take a day off every single week? I bet you would. So think about that too. I hope you guys liked the video. Please comment below. I'm very curious to see what your thoughts are. And if you haven't yet, I am going to leave the link for you guys in the description down below. Join the dental L network community where it's a separate online form where you can get first dibs to these YouTube videos. They will be on the community first. Comment, reply, post anytime. Reach out to me a lot easier. There is now a live chat option through the community. So thank you guys as always for supporting me and my channel. I hope you liked this video. It's truly a passion of mine for people to work less. It really is. But still make the same amount of money so you can afford to work less, but ultimately to work less. So I hope you enjoyed this. Thank you guys and I'll see you guys in the next one.


The Northern Elders Forum has said that the northern part of the country is not reserving the presidency for other regions in the February 25th presidential election. According to them, every citizen, regardless of region, should be given the opportunity to contest any elective position or also warning that the North would counter any attempts to subvert the wishes of the people. In a statement, they also said the North has paid its dues and there is no other section of the country that has contributed as much as the Northern part of the country, adding that the North still has an outstanding four years to rule in order to equate the southern part of Nigeria. Joining us to discuss this is Dr Hakim Baba Ahmed. He is the spokesperson of the Northern Elders Forum. Happy New Year and thanks for joining us, Doctor. Thank you very much. Good to see you. Great. Let me start by asking where the North is pitching its tent for the 25th February elections. Many regions have been speaking up on who they want, certain persons who are notable in certain regions have also said, well, this is who we're pitching our 10th with. Has the North come to an understanding yet as to who they will be picking? Yeah, we've always had an understanding. We don't follow crowds. The North has its pitching its tent with the interests of the people of the North. Timing is not in itself a priority. We can decide where we go at any time and we don't want to succumb to pressure from people saying, no, no, no, there are only few days that you have to say something. We will say something when we build it is the right time and the appropriate time. What is your assessment so far of all the frontline? Let's say the first four frontline runners for the presidential elections. We've seen that they're more than five, they're more than six, but then there are few people that we would term as frontline runners. What's your assessment of those people so far? I mean, we have a few of them who are from the northern extraction of this country. Well, we think they've done well. They've just certainly shown a strong desire for our trust. I'm talking about Nigerian electorate, not just the northern electorate. They've published excellent money testers. They are here to understand Nigeria's problems and they've done the rounds. We've seen them on one-on-one when we held a meeting for some of them in Kaduna. We've been following their campaign. So on the whole, about three or four of them have shown a capacity and a genuineness for us to trust them. As I said before, there is no pressure to say who it is that we would advise and others to support and I would like to remind you that not specifically pointing at a candidate is one of the options that we have. We don't have to say to the people of the north. We suggest you go and vote for A or B. But where we feel we have, we should and it is the better choice. We will do that. But on the whole, I think the candidates have shown tremendous desire to be trusted. Whether they are the best or not, these are the candidates who should be asking us to trust them. It's now academic issue. We have 18 candidates, whether we like it or not. Out of these 18, there are front runners and they are front runners because they appear to have enjoyed the biggest exposure, the biggest support. Obviously, they had no money than others but they made themselves more visible. But we are not going to allow these factors to cloud us in terms of taking a decision or judgment over the contestants. As much as you say that you will not necessarily be telling people who to vote for, but there will be a point where you decide that you will throw your weight behind this person or that person. I hear that. But you can also bear witness with me that there seems to have been a change of the mindsets of people, whether it be in the north, south, east or west. There seems to be that level of independence. Now, people are more independent minded when it comes to this election. So there is no more listening to the voice of wisdom or the wise ones or elders. People seem to want to be going in their own different direction. Do you think the NEF still has that power, that attention that they can get the ears of the average person in the north? Well, we have never been an election-only group. Our job has never been just to simply say to northerners, this is what you vote for. We are not a political party, we are not people who say to people to northerners, this is where to go. I would like to remind you that we have done a lot of other things. Again, they are related to politics. We fought very hard to make sure that northerners have an equal chance within their parties to be filled in. As we speak, there are five parties that are filled in northerners, this time last year.


The power trading hour with your host David White call now toll free at 1-877-927-6648 or internationally at<PHONE_NUMBER>. Now David White. And welcome all to another excellent edition of the power trading hour and of course we're rocking from the Fed announcement. They did go up three quarters of percent and it was unanimous. And of course as always we meet at the appointed time. The following takes place between 2pm and 3pm. So at the moment we'll see what the reaction is. We were I think about 28 points higher on the S&P. We broke support. Now the question is is this going to be just like yesterday where it came back in. Sport comes in at about 2848-3845. Your next levels down are going to be 3748 and then 3650 for support. So you've got 75 points if this does not hold from right here. That's seven tenths of a percent down. Not uncommon to have the market rush up and down after a Fed meeting. But yeah very hard to get. I think a lot of people all self-actuated into buying today. NASDAQ down a little bit more than that. It didn't really see much in the way of crude still down about the same and gold up about the same. So we'll see how this goes. Again Jay Powell will have his pressure at 230. That normally runs till about 315 or so. We'll have some questions. Everybody will try to read the tea leaves of what he says and make it a lot more or a lot less than what he actually says. And maybe by the close we'll have some kind of consensus on what he really meant. But of course it's right out of George Orwell. It's a double speak. And finding the truth kind of takes a little while.<PHONE_NUMBER>. Email me at path at tfnn.com. And of course you can always put a message in the den. And as we take a look here I'll just keep a close eye on it. As I said you're going to bounce around here a little ways. Yesterday we were kind of in the same area and ended up closing a little higher. There's only one good signal that I have right now that says that we could bottom. And that is how many retail traders have been selling off in the lows especially on Friday. Generally they tend to throw in the towel at the lows finally. This is the first real big kind of throw the baby out the bathwater. Specifically to retail traders. That was on Friday. So were we in some place that could hold? Tough to say. On the high side we can look at about 40, 50 on the S&P. That would probably be extreme resistance at that level on the upside. And as we said a little earlier on the downside. Any close probably before below 38, 45 opens up 37, 48 and then 36, 50 to go back and test the previous lows. Why the market is having conundrums and continues to be an enigma wrapped in a riddle until Powell talks. Why don't we go ahead and do some of the normal stuff we do and then we'll see what's going on in the market. On this day in 1954 the first Fortran program was executed. Fortran was developed by IBM scientists were looking for a better way to program the IBM 704 mainframe computer. It quickly became the dominant programming language for scientific engineering applications. And if you're a thousand years old and answered the name of Methuselah it is still used today. In fact there's a thriving business of still trying to get data and run those programs still today. Because no one wants to spend the money to upgrade either the hardware or the software. Especially in the area of high performance computing although I think that's a little stretching it there. A lot of languages that are 10 times faster now than Fortran although it's fairly simple. On this day in 1945 we find out that trying to build an entire four bedroom house out of toothpicks is tough. So for computer stuff and big programs we're going to try to go to something on a little higher level where we build walls and kitchens not just every individual small stick. And that's kind of it. You could write in a similar individual codes for each thing the CPU needed to do. Or you can write a much more flowery and large way. And most of the time today compilers are better than what humans can do unless the human wants to spend 10 to 20 times longer than what the compiler does.<PHONE_NUMBER>. Let's go back to what's going on for today. Of course the Fed announcement the only other thing that really has my interest at the moment for bigger trends coming is a possible storm in the Gulf. Of course they were supposed to have 19 named storms and of course none of them landed here in the United States. They were supposed to have eight or nine by this time. Hurricane season is over on November 30th. This may be the first one that could get up into the Gulf area around Louisiana and change the trajectory of crude. So keep an eye on it. It's way, way, way in the nosebleed section of the Gulf at the moment. But pretty good tracks that show it probably going up into the Gulf of Mexico. And of course once it gets in there everybody has to amsgray at and lay off those oil rigs. And of course this is at a time where we have probably only about 20% left in the strategic petroleum reserve. If anything would happen to this way or of course we had the news with Putin deciding to throw some nukes around this morning unclear just how bad it would be for us now that we've kind of used our seed corn and really haven't decided to go back and add production on the other side of it. But who am I? We just need to project what's going to happen. But I'm looking for either the storm or some other event to kick off crude once more. My guess the next time it's going to go back up and retest those highs somewhere around 170 or 180 probably in the next three to six months something like that. My guess is that once that SPR oil quits flowing we're going to have some real problems in crude.<PHONE_NUMBER>. Okay let's start taking a look at some stuff. I thought it was pretty funny we were talking yesterday about Jim Cramer. Bring me the head of the false prophet Jim Cramer. And infallibly when he short something it tends to go the other way. It was up about four or five bucks on Nvidia. It's just south out here today but I'm going to continue to keep an eye on that. Nothing like getting a lot of people short in an overly shorted stock already. I'm just thinking this is the next meme stock if they continue to pile in on it. And could it go down from there? Yeah. Man getting a lot of retailers short at lows. Bad idea. With booming inflation we are purchasing powers eroded. There's no better place to protect your hard earned money than ain't gold. This the gold flagship asset is the Monk Todd Gold Project in the northern territory of Australia. This is Australia's largest undeveloped gold project. We are talking a world-class gold project in a tail one mining district. This is a large scale low cost project with significant existing infrastructure in a politically safe and friendly mining jurisdiction. This the gold just completed the Mount Todd feasibility study which resulted in a 7 million ounce gold reserve in a 16 year mine life. All of this combined with the approvals of all major operational as well as environmental permits. This thing which is Mount Todd is an attractive, diverse pot ready development stage gold project. This the gold trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol VGZ. Are you grinding in the market but seeing little to no return?

Let's take a quick look at the chart for gold futures. That should be GC, right? Okay, it's now down about flat really on the day, but I'm showing 1670-85 for the last tick on it. So it's bounced back a little bit, got down to almost 1662. So that's kind of a nice little washout down at the bottom. We'll see whether any of these things can hold through the rest of the day. 20-year Treasury did bounce a little bit. Not very much volume in that today. In fact, not very much volume in the market today too. Take a quick look at the TLT 106-88. So that is a little up off the floor. We're kind of looking at the low 106 is maybe 106 and a nickel. It's like from just eyeballing it on the TLT. That's the 10-20-year Treasury bonds. Kind of what I use to as a rule of thumb on the greater market. Still way below the trend line. So I don't see much going on with that all over. At some point people just end up leaving equities when they get scared. Retail traders, especially in buying bonds. And it's out of the frying pan into the fire. One of the few things that, what was his name? Joe. I want to say Grigiola, but that's not Joe. I'll think of his name in a second. Big time guy because he picked one market downtrend. And he always had the theory. No, not Joe, but Apaglia. This is Joe, the newsletter writer from Kansas City. Thinking of what we have here. Joe. Yeah, I'll think of it. Anyway, he had one theory and that was that when you see bonds headed lower, something headed lower, kind of like the Titanic. Everybody's going to run to the stern. All of the whole thing is going. Yeah, Joe Granville. Thank you. I couldn't even move his name. I didn't believe anything that really said he had one winning trade and parlayed that into a 20 year run of being wrong. And I think he was wrong just until 2008 where he wouldn't wrong anymore. But there's somebody on the internet used to have a win-loss record for him. He won a bunch in 87 and then never really kind of won again. But sometimes on TV, that's all you need to be a one-time big winner.  Anyway, as we see the TLT, I still don't see anything out here that makes me believe this isn't headed to 101 for the next big major milestone. You may have bounces like today, but again, probably out of the fire and into the frying pan, everybody's running to the stern of the Titanic. And it's just a few minutes away before everybody slides down the deck and into the drink. But that drink would be cold. And that's what we need in Florida right now. Okay,<PHONE_NUMBER> as we go into it. Now, after the bell tonight, depending on how we do today, may set up a tone, and that tone will be for Lenar and KBH. And of course, higher interest rates really are probably going to start hurting retail sales. We saw some big moves in numbers earlier in the week, I think actually yesterday. But a lot of those folks saw higher interest rates coming and decided to climb in before they took off. So those housing starts were based on loans granted about three months ago. And it takes about that long to three to seven months, depending on where you're at in the country, to start breaking ground. I think a lot of people were in a fairly big hurry. So we have that. But after this, this is probably the last big hurrah. KBH at its lows, below $27.32 today, could easily get you back to $24.78. That's the June 17th low. I'm going to say the odds that it hits that after earnings tonight, maybe not instantly, but soon at about 80%, I can't see this bouncing much unless everybody's short. I didn't look to see just how short this is, but let's see. The only thing on these earnings is if everybody has the same idea, it's probably a bad idea. I probably shouldn't have said anything till I looked at it. Actually, it's not bad. 11% yesterday, 15% before, 6.5% before. They're not huge, at least on a daily shorting basis. On the bi-monthly, it's kind of up there. You've got almost five days to cover. So it wouldn't be something I'd want to carry into short, just because so many people could be on the wrong side of a northbound cow. The south end of a northbound cow. Okay, and get some more. We'll go back to that in a second. Where's that? Okay, the other one is the Lenar. Let's look and see if we have any disparity between those. Man, kind of the same thing. Let's take a look and see what we have on short interest for this one. About the same. You've got just under five days to cover, which is fairly strong. If you're unfamiliar with days to cover, I kind of look at it more than the short percentage. That is, if you just took the last 30 or 60 day average for the volume of the stock, if the short's all wanted to get out one time, how many days would it take only at that average volume to get out? So five days, you could have kind of some meme stocks in these in the short term. I wouldn't be going into earnings on anything that had five days to cover. But that is I. Again, both of these things look like they're going to go back and retest previous lows. The question is, do they run all the shorts and then pull back to the previous lows? Not uncommon. Everybody thinks that they know the direction of the market. So that's one of those things. Do we have anything else? Earlier in the morning, reporting already was General Mills and his brother, the Colonel. Of course, generally in markets that are nervous, you go for things that people have to have. Clorox, cereal, Colonel Mills used to be a general. I guess this nice gap hired this morning still cements it. You're back above some fairly long term resistance levels. You got decent volume. Any idea that everybody's going to be going to the mattresses fairly quickly? Okay, that's a few emails here. We'll be back in a minute. Answer the Dread Pirate Z's question.

Also, before the bell this morning, stitch, fix? What was it after the bell last night? I can't remember. Anyway, it was down about 50 cents earlier in the day now at about 506, but it's hanging in there. Of course, once the darling of the shutdown, whatever we have here looks low. 506 now, and of course it was 44.65 back on September 27th, so a year ago, so one-tenth the price. Anyway, as Jesse Livermore said, a stock's never too high in price to buy nor too low to sell, because it can always go lower, always can go higher. Okay, now we've got a couple of little emails here. Do you have any cues that you like to use on Powell Day? Before they started having the press conferences, it was kind of one and done. But the whole idea of this press conference and the fact they can say anything at any time and the market will drastically react to it. I just stand back. I kind of wait until the desk clears. I like to see what happens at about 345 when everybody has to start thinking about whether they're going to hold overnight to get an indication. So I'm not predicting much of anything until we get to that point today. So as Warren Buffett likes to say, money in the markets goes from the impatient to the patient. So I think little patience is covered on today. How does the XLE look? We'll take a look. I think we've got maybe another, I think we've got 50 days or 58 days, something like that to the election. A lot of the energy prices have been held down by huge taps of the strategic petroleum reserve. Most of that oil has been going to foreign sources. And that overall, it's kept the price down of oil and satiated those who don't want oil in the United States by doing it. But it's kept the prices down overall. We're about 80% through all of that. So we've got about 20% left. I'm thinking that once we're tapped out on that, most of the OPEC nations or other suppliers are going to figure it out fairly quick. And they'll start raising rates. And there won't be a lot we can do. But pray that there's not a dust-up in Taiwan or a bigger dust-up in Russia, Ukraine or anywhere else, because we'll be tapped out of that strategic petroleum reserve.<PHONE_NUMBER>. Anyway, looking at the chart on the XLE, a little bit of a retracement. I think you're going to get one more chance at 7528 to September 19th low and whether or not you're able to get it. But I'd be looking at that. Let's see. Got some other questions out here. Microsoft is having its dog and pony here in about 30 days or so. It is testing the lows and actually on fairly lighter volume. Energy is about the same on the way up and the way down. So the best you probably would hope for is that this isn't a bigger trading range from 394 back to 240-ish. You did test yesterday the volume of 46 million shares with 26 million shares. So not a bad day. It went below it. It closed back above it. Probably the strongest overall long-term outlook for tech stocks that's easily visible. But at the same time, being the best house in a bad crack neighborhood doesn't mean you're going up, probably just less going down. Which I think would probably mean a Paris trade between something far worse than Microsoft and maybe something like Microsoft on the long side. If that's the way you wanted to play it. But I think there are better other plays out there. Take a look out here. Now we're flat now on the S&P cash. As I said, don't get too excited until at 345 time. We are at fairly decent support. But we've got probably 200 points higher and either 100 or 200 points lower. We are getting into that point. We're about four or five days. If you just look at it seasonally, you tend to find a low. I don't think we're probably going to find the low today. Maybe it just goes sideways or something. But generally, the next couple of days tend to have the worst days of the market historically over the last 150 years. Just playing the odds, probably not a huge move. Doesn't mean you can't win by going against the odds. They're not huge, but they're at 65, 35, something like that for the last few days. So we'll keep an eye on that. Other stocks in VDA. You can type it correctly in VDA. As we started off the show, kind of interesting play out here. Still above what you had and not a bad looking chart. If you're looking for a short squeeze, I do kind of like it. It does have a little bit of Joe DiNapoli double repose in it. The one thing you would really like to see is a lot of volume before the end of the day. Volume's not bad, but you generally want a bigger candle when you break back over the 3x3. It's kind of wimpy at the moment. Others in the usual suspects, AMD. A little more on it. Kind of the same style of pattern, but again, not much of the way of volume. That may change rapidly by the end of the day. We'll go to Apple. Same kind of thing. You should be getting a lot of energy and volume today. You are not. That means you can't crawl up a little bit farther on minor volume. NFLX. Kind of interesting. We'll go through Netflix and Disney. But both of these companies working very hard on the propaganda. They've had some real stinkers. And they are doing everything, including leaning on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie review site, to make sure people don't pound on movies that look rather horrible. Netflix has got one. You did test the previous high on higher volume. So there is a chance that you're going to retest at least the 250 area on Netflix. Energy was a little bit better off the September lows. Disney also trying to make sure that no one tells anybody that the king has no clothes, holding up reviews on it. Amazon too didn't let anybody, I think it was five or seven days, didn't let anybody post reviews because they were 95% horrible for its Lord of the Rings reboot. And they put a billion dollars on that reboot. And it's horrifically bad. Most people tuned out by the second or third episode of it. So it's doing extremely poorly. Walt Disney has some other ones kind of the same thing. Spent a lot of money on She-Hulk. It's not doing well. They're all trying to make sure that no one actually says that they're horrible on social media and sites like Rotten Tomatoes, which I think just really makes the problem.

Traded on the NYSE American and TSX under the symbol VGZ. Relatively flat, maybe a little bit higher. It's kind of thin and wispy trading. What are we going to call it? Up 15 on the S&P at the moment. So again, it's just going to flail around here and probably until the close. Don't get too excited one way or the other. His main message hadn't changed. Maybe all the double top secret handshake things have changed. I see that on there. Anyway, the question was, how bad is it for Disney from Jake? And I think the big problem they have is that they just can't quit making stinkers around Star Wars. Paid four and a half billion dollars for the property. They've made one decent series out of it. Three bad ones and I think two bad movies. But they got yet another stinker coming called Andor. And everybody's up in arms for fans that have seen the original trailer thinking it is just as bad as Obi-Wan and the other ones. The only good thing they've had out of all of that was the Mandalorian. And of course, there's somebody, one of our gentle listeners and one of my subscribers, asked me why I don't like being in a movie and film production. This is the history. That is a lot of people, they know what's going on.  Then they have to justify their income. So they hand notes around. They think they're the creative people and they slowly stomp out anything good that was coming out at the beginning. So you'll see the history of movie production is there'll be a Warner Brothers or something like that and they'll have a hot five or seven years and they'll run it. And the same thing. It didn't matter what it is, what movie chain or whatever it is. Executives who are non-creative cannot help getting involved in being and stomping out the creative part. And at this point, Disney is this kind of for video production is just kind of the McDonald's. Yeah, if you want it good and fast and cheap, you can get it. But it's not going to be very satisfying. And you may even feel a little bad an hour or two after eating one of their big greasy burgers. So I'm not a big fan of these folks going after quantity instead of quality. And two, you can see the stinky fingerprints at least on Disney and Netflix on a lot of the stuff coming out now. Again, that was during the time where the pandemic ruled and these folks really couldn't go to the movie theater directly. So, yeah, the balance of power went to these big streaming places and they decided to pit their big massive mitts all over stuff and run it for the most part. There's still some good stuff out here. But when you've got to cover up just how bad your stuff is by threatening other platforms or an Amazon case for its Lord of the Rings, not letting anybody put reviews on your own site, you know it stinks. So anyway,<PHONE_NUMBER> as we wait for Powell's stuff to go on.  We talked about that yesterday a little bit. Do I still have that? That's gold, finally going higher.  Of course, I don't get to listen to it because I'm on air. Let's look at the dollar. We went through the levels and it's 109.25 or was yesterday. So we'll look at that again. But any close back below about 109 would be a double repo blow off top at $0.1042 or $0.1041 on the dollar index. You'd still have another buck and a half to really drop before the end of the day. Maybe tomorrow you get the confirmation on it. But certainly a blow off into one, what's the high of the day out here on the DX, $0.111.33. Remember that $0.1050 now. We've got a little hanging man forming on the dollar. I don't know if you can make a great deal out of it. Well, we're back up to 309. $0.3892 on the S&P cash. Again, probably a little bit. Let's take a quick look at NVIDIA. I'm just figuring that with as many people probably that piled on. Yeah, you got a nice 6% bounce in NVIDIA today. And certainly everybody that Kramer talked into going short on Tuesday is underwater. What else do we have out here? Let's take a quick look at volume. It is extremely light, still extremely light. Yet mostly we have almost in the high sixes, low sevens when we start the show. What do we have here? About 12 more minutes to go. Doing about 6.2 billion shares. So there isn't a lot of volume to the upside. There isn't a lot of volume to the downside.  Because I don't think there's a lot into this. This could all unwind fairly quickly. Okay, got some other questions out here we'll get to.  Let's take a quick look at the GLD. See if this thing comes back in. Well, to get back into the trading range, you'd need $150803. You did pierce it. You had kind of a reversal signal. It turned to dust that reversal signal was on the 1st of September. You came down on fairly decent volume of 13.2 million shares on what is that? The 15. Going sideways. You're still just in the trading range of that day of the 15th, at least on the GLD.  You could get a close over the three by three. But yeah, we may still need some consolidation to get that done. There's not a great signal off the bottom for those just yet. Something else happens. Okay. That's on a medium term, not on the next five or 10 minutes by the way. I don't do anything but dailies on the show. Okay. Got a couple more. Questions. Let's take a look at Amazon. Yeah.  It's hard to stay short. The chart does look fairly good. You filled this gap from, what is that? The 29th of July on fairly light volume. Probably as bad as good as it's going to get.

See that in the liners, which makes me think that, well, it's probably time to buy commodities. Isn't that the way it is? I think he's just cursed now. And of course, all we can remember is that inflation is transitory, as he said before. He didn't say that today. That was mocking him. I was a mocker. Anyway, I'm not going to get too excited one way or another volume still is fairly low, only doing about six and a half billion shares on the day, even yesterday we did nine and a half billion. So not a big day. Not uncommon to get a lot of volume before the end of the day. Everybody's trying to look at this as the glass half empty, not a full glass or a glass that's a little bit more than half full. And, you know, I don't know what else he's going to say today, but if I was betting and I am not, I'd say that the market closes somewhat flat from all the competing signals I see at least throughout this. Now, maybe we start moving out tomorrow, but it's hard to see. Anyway, we're up 34 points on the S&P cash now. Again, 40, 50 is resistance on the high side if we can get out of here. And 140 points down to the next support level from here at 3890.<PHONE_NUMBER>. We're already done for the day. Again, a little nicer when you can actually listen to it and watch the trading. I've got to kind of talk and chew gum at the same time here on the air. So I'll look at it a little bit more. I've got an update going out for subscribers, but I don't tend to make any big prognostications until he's done at least speaking, which will be about 315. Hang on for Tom O'Brien who will take us through the end of the day. And that's about it. So when you can, not when you have to, we'll see you here tomorrow.


So in the last video with cloth physics, Akidoka mentioned that the tutorial would not be complete without explaining collision, and he is correct. But the reason why I didn't mention it before is because I honestly don't have it completely figured out. But maybe if I show you guys what I know, it might give you guys a good starting point to figure out the rest. So I'll just go ahead and share what I know. Basically when you're doing cloth physics collision, you need to rig the cape to the skeleton that it's going to be colliding with in Unreal. So for example, if we plan to put the cape on the default mannequin, we need to rig the cape to the mannequin skeleton before we export doesn't have to be fancy just a really lazy weight paint job. And then when we import the cape, we tell Unreal that it's supposed to be using the default mannequin rig. From this point, it's exactly the same process as the last video. You apply the cloth physics, you apply the paint, the only difference is at the end over here on the left, instead of using the default cape physics that was generated from the fbx, set this to the default mannequin physics instead. And now you can see the cable be interacting with the body. Now it pretty much works. The only thing that I'm not sure about is why the cloth will sometimes clip through the elbows. It seems to work fine and never go through her back in her butt. But for some reason, her arms will sometimes clip through. So yeah, I'm not really sure why. If any of you guys know, I would love to hear in the comments. But that's what I know about cloth collision. Hope that helps. And as always, hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around.


I get it, you're young, you don't think social security is for you, but guess what? You're wrong. The Social Security Administration may be able to provide benefits for you. My name is Tony Vieira, I'm an attorney with 22 years experience handling disability claims and I'm here to share with you three big myths that most people get wrong about the social security disability process. Number one, the number one myth is, I'm young, I can't be found disabled. Did you know that 25% of all workers will end up being disabled and having to stop working before retirement age? This happens to young people, it happens to older people. To qualify for disability benefits, the Social Security Administration just requires you to have a condition that makes you unable to work for at least 12 months. Myth number two, only horrific catastrophic conditions qualify. You might be thinking, but I'm not in a wheelchair, I've got my arms, I couldn't possibly qualify for social security benefits. You're wrong. To qualify for disability benefits, any physical, psychological condition, something you were born with, so long as it leaves you unable to work for 12 months or more, you might qualify for benefits. The third thing that most people get wrong, the third myth is, okay, I know I have conditions, I've got a good case, but I can't afford to wait years for social security to help me out. That's wrong too. The Social Security Administration can expedite cases. The Compassionate Allowance Program is there, and if you meet the criteria for those benefits, they will actually speed up the process for you. The best advice I can give you, if you think you qualify, if you want to talk to someone about how to make the process go by faster, talk to an experienced attorney. Feel free to give us a call and feel free to share this video if you know anyone that would require help. Thank you.


When we talk about the behaviorism, then we always have some idea about the behaviorism that we are talking about the behavior of humans or behavior of animals. And behaviorism basically, it always define learning in the, in context with the stimulus and response. And stimulus not only can be the human, but stimulus can be an object, stimulus can be an event, stimulus can be anything in the environment that will stimulate you to take action. So the concept of stimulus is like that, that it can be any motivational force, it can be any pushing force to motivate you to do anything, any action and to complete any task. So these are the basic concepts of behaviorism. And from the behavioral school of thought, we will discuss today the Skinner's theory and Skinner's thoughts, what Skinner is saying about. Skinner has presented the theory operant conditioning. And he actually in the opinion that he is actually not aggressively talking about the stimulus, but he is talking about the reinforcement of the actions, reinforcement of response. He is talking about the response that when we will strengthen the response, then the person will learn more and person will give more feedback positive. So in that, he gave the concept of operant conditioning, he said, it is not necessary that the first school of thought, like Pavelov, he said that stimulus and response will be stimulated, then we will give the response, action and reaction that he has said. Skinner is saying that when any student or child works, and we get positive feedback, then we try to work better with happiness and motivation next time. The theory of Skinner is that operant means actions that we take, if we strengthen it, anything can happen, if you make a female's dish at home and the response is very good, then they will again present you with a better recipe and they will be motivated. Similarly, if a student motivates and appreciates the work of the teacher, then next time they work better. This is basically what Skinner wants to say, if we have an average response, then we should not degrade it, we should strengthen it, this time it is an average score, but you can get the highest score in the next attempt. So these comments will motivate the child to do better than the next task. So here, he did an experiment with pigeon to explain the whole process, that a pigeon had to run and train it to reach its target. During that time, he had kept some cues in between, some had placed a green light on it. And as soon as the pigeon started to run, it reached somewhere in the middle of the beginning, so it was running with the help of hazard, with trial and error, sometimes here and sometimes there. But suddenly, by chance, a lever is pressed on its legs, some of which have cranes that the pigeon eats happily. Now, within the pigeon, obviously, there is a fuel and a motivation. It goes ahead with that motivation and then it crosses the target. Now, there is a green light that burns first, then a dump, then a pound lever is pressed on it, and then it gets cranes. So this whole process, when the pigeon reaches, it takes a lot of time in the first bar, but then next time, when it is experimented to train it again, the pigeon takes less time and its motivation, the grains that were getting it, it starts to do it happily and quickly. So here, what I want to say is that when we motivate someone, the changes that we want to bring into their behavior, through our positive feedback, through our positive reinforcement, the changes in their behavior come quickly. Instead of being authoritative and trying to bring changes into someone, obviously, it will become obedient in front of you. But the change in their behavior means that the work that you don't like or for the child is unwanted, so we need to positively motivate the unwanted work from the outside. So he said that we can shape anyone's behavior in this way. It is very important for imitation that the children learn by observing. Like a teacher's model, like a parent's model, the children observe and learn their behavior. So if we want to bring changes in their behavior, then the reinforcer, the teacher or the parent, they will have to bring changes in their behavior. If they bring changes in their behavior, then your child automatically observes you, by observing you, he will bring changes in the same way. Aggressive father always communicates his child with aggression. Children always listen and learn from lies and abuse in their home. So here, the word chaining, the pigeon experiment, he said that when we bring changes in someone's behavior, then it cannot come at once. We have to chain it. The skinner who got the grains of the pigeon, for that light and then the liver, he had put it on the steps in which he was accusing him that you are going in the right direction. So when we have to bring changes in someone's behavior, then we have to take it step by step. Today, the child has come into the class from time to time, so you should appreciate him. And next time he will meet your deadline, then you should appreciate him. If you say immediately that there will be changes in his behavior, then it cannot come. We always have to bring changes in the behavior of the child, or if he has a negative attitude, then we should work step by step for his withdrawal.


Alright guys, what is going on, Alex here from the MD journey, helping you succeed on your medical journey with less stress. This video, I'm going to be showing you and helping you get more shadowing opportunities, show you how to look, what tips I have. And I know if you're a pre-med, that's something you always want to know. So let's get to those tips after the intro. Alright guys, so how do you get more shadowing opportunities? I'm going to break this up in a couple of steps. The first one is, how many shadowing opportunities do you need, or do you even need any for your medical school application? The answer to that is obviously yes. You have to prove on your medical application that you have the experience that enough in the clinical setting that you want to become a physician even after seeing it. You've shadowed a doctor, you've shadowed a surgeon, a pediatrician, whatever it may be, but you're showing on your application that I've seen this before. I may not have done much, I may have just been a fly on the wall, but at least after looking through those experiences I've decided that I want to do it. So the first thing is yes, absolutely you need it. So if you're struggling or if that's a part of your application that you're missing out on, follow the rest of the tips in this video and we'll help you structure it better. Moving on to the second part of that tip is how many do you need? I would recommend aim for one a month. That seems like a big task for some of you, especially if you've had difficulty getting shadowing experience in the past. I understand it's not easy, especially when there's a lot. If you're in the United States for example, a lot of laws which make it easier for physicians to say no because they just don't want to deal with the paperwork and administrative crap that they have to do to get you to come see them. But I would still recommend trying to get one a month, which means you have the opportunity to get a lot of nose and just have somebody say yes I'm okay with you shadowing me multiple times or several people saying yes I'm okay with you coming during this month. So moving on to tip number two on how I would suggest you go about getting your shadowing experience is come up with a list of physicians in your area or clinics that you know about. This will probably take a weekend for you to do a quick hour to two hour Google search and come up with a excel sheet of I would say anywhere from 25 to 50 physicians and clinics. That seems like a lot but be prepared to have a lot of rejections, a lot of no answers and then a few maybe that are willing to communicate with you so you want to be able to increase the wider your net. That way you can get as many opportunities as possible. So come up with the list. So look up any clinics nearby. Look up hospitals that have like the physician's emails. Look up the the physicians on LinkedIn if possible. Just be resourceful. So if you know a family friend definitely ask them or add them to your list and create this excel sheet, this master excel sheet with their name, the contact info, phone number whatever you may be and whether or not you've already contacted them. So moving on to tip three which is create a template of what you want to send them via email because you're going to be emailing a bunch of them I'm assuming. So in your template you want to break it down into a very structured format which is your first sentence is introduce yourself. Say I am so-and-so I am this far in my journey so you can say if you're a college student where you are what you're majoring in put that under one sentence and at the very end of that sentence put I'm interested in going to some medical school and I'm looking for more experience and exposure. Sentence one. Number two is saying something along that you would love to have the opportunity to shadow or follow them even for a day or multiple events if they're willing. So that's sentence two. And sentence three is just saying something about your schedule which is my schedule is pretty flexible. Please let me know whatever time works for you. You can always like mess around if your schedule isn't flexible. Later but let's just get them to respond to try not to get not try not to create many barriers to your success. So first sentence introduce yourself. Second sentence mention that you love to shadow them. Third sentence mention that your flexibility is super open. And four mention and the fourth sentence is that if they're not willing this is really important because you can get a lot of references this way is if they're not able to or willing to let you shadow them ask them if they have a good contact of who they'd recommend you contact next. And that has helped me kind of reach out to people that eventually have shadowed because the physicians know themselves maybe I'm not a good person for somebody to come shadow my clinic is really busy my patients may not be comfortable with a college student but I do know of this position in my own practice that brings the students a lot. So here is his email. So first sentence introduce yourself. Second sentence mention that you're interested in shadowing them if they're allowed if they're willing to allow you to do so. Third sentence mention that you're flexible and fourth sentence ask them if they're not able to who they would recommend. And then the fifth sentence is just add that they can contact you via email and your cell phone. Add your cell phone in there and I can text you anytime and then just say thank you. And that's pretty much it. Like create that template. You can be a little more specific if you want if you especially if you want exposure within a field like if you really want to become a surgeon or you think you have an interest in surgery the ones that are surgeons you can add a little blurb about your your interest in surgery. But otherwise if you use that template and see who responds and send that out. So my title I usually just put to whom and make concern but you can just write one email to each position. That may be a little bit nicer too because then you'll have one email per person so you'll be able to keep better track of your communications. And then your subject line just put a inquiring about shadowing opportunities and just put just leave it there. That's kind of what's worked for me. So going back to reflecting on what I've already mentioned is try to get at least one of these create a list of 25 to 50 sending emails out and then wait about a week or two. And if you don't hear anything I would email them back and say hey I'm just reaching out again I sent this email. Please let me know if we're still able to set something up. They may still not respond or they may respond okay actually we're not available so then you can take off your Excel sheet. Once ideally by this time you are getting responses back and you can start adding people to your calendar you can do whatever paperwork that they require you to do. And then you want to fill the list up again and look for what physicians you know mark the physicians that said no or the clinics that said no in your Excel sheet with red so you don't contact them again and look for more. You can continue to ask the people like after your shadowing hey I'm you know thank you so much for letting me shadow you but who else would you recommend I also reach out to because I'm trying to get a lot of exposure on my belt. Physicians know this we all have to do this to get into medical school. So so it's totally okay to be resourceful and try to network but keep adding to your list every time your your shadowing appointments are just starting to dwindle. So that's my approach guys it's not very complicated but it does require a good amount of crowd work and being okay with you know people rejecting you or people not responding to it's part of medicine people are busy and so if you really want it you just have to go out there and communicate as many people as possible and you'll get a couple of diamonds in the rough that will say okay and you're going to have great experiences. I'll make a different video in the future about what you should do when you go out to your shadowing appointments and what you need to keep in mind. I do mention that my course which I'll link down below as well. That's my approach on how you get shadowing appointments and it's it's pretty basic. I mean I admit that but very few students are willing to do the work you know upfront to get the results in the back. I think I had about 120 hours of shadowing appointments and experiences by the time that I applied in that school that spoke volume. So are you able to put in the work ask yourself and if you haven't had it on your application and make sure you do the work now so that way your application is a little bit more competitive once you try to do it. So hopefully that was helpful if it was comment below. Let me know if you guys have more questions on shadowing or any other topic you love for me to talk about the medical school application process. Obviously if you enjoyed this video like the video subscribe to the channel and I'm going to stop babbling. I will see you as the next one. Take care my friends.
