The Lucky Strike program starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston Rochester, Dennis Day, Bob Crosby, and yours truly, Don Wilson. Ladies and gentlemen, this is the middle of the Christmas shopping season, and as usual, Jack is going to his favorite department store to purchase gifts for his gang. But before we go Christmas shopping, I'd like to take you to a modest little home in the suburbs of Los Angeles. The home belongs to a department store salesman and his wife. It's five o'clock in the morning. Oh, oh yeah, that same nightmare. I always have it this time of year, Beatrice. Ah, it comes to this door for his Christmas shopping. Yeah, only this dream was voice. I looked at his hands and instead of fingers, he had shoe laces. On one hand, the fingernails were plastic tips, and on the other hand was metal tips. Why do I always have to dream about him? Now, Mel, control yourself. Maybe he won't come into the store this year. Oh, he'll come, he'll come. He's been coming in and driving me nuts for over 15 years. Well, don't worry about it. Maybe he's mellowed. Maybe he'll be kinder now that he's getting old. He was old 15 years ago. You go to the store and during my lunch hour, I'll come down to your department and if you've had any trouble, I'll relieve you. Anyway, there's very little chance of seeing him now that you're in the art department. Yeah, I guess that's right, Beatrice. He don't look like the kind of guy who would go in for painting. He ain't the artistic type. Mr. Benny, you've still got quite a few more names on your Christmas list. Yeah, I still have to get something from my producer and Ms. Livingston now, so you can do your personal shopping. Thank you. And will it be all right if I charge my things to your account? Charge it? What happened to the Christmas bonus I gave you? I lost it. Lost your bonus, gambling? Oh, no. I had a hole in my pocket and rolled down a sewer. Now, wait a minute, Ross. Stop making up jokes. I gave you a $25 check for a Christmas bonus. I know, Mr. Benny, but I can't cash that check until after next Monday. Why not? Me and the check are appearing on you-ass for it. We'll show them. I'll meet you here later, Rochester. Okay. Gee, I still haven't gotten anything from Mary. I know what I'll do. I'll buy her a negligee. Now, where's the negligee department? Oh, that must be the floor walker over there, that man in striped trousers from the cutaway coat. Oh, Mr. Mr. Are you the floor walker? No, I'm a pallbearer, but my handle broke. I didn't come here for a corny conversation. All I want to know is where I can buy a negligee. On the third floor, but I don't think they have anything in your side. Don't be so smart. It's not for me. Oh, for your wife? No, I'm not married.  Now, cut that out. Anyway, I don't need you. I'll find it. And the store is so crowded, I don't think I'll ever finish them. Hey, it looks like my orchestra ranger, Maylon Merrick. Hi, Maylon. Oh, hello, Jack. Doing your Christmas shopping, eh? Yes. I'm getting some gifts for the boys in the band. Gee, it's a nuisance, isn't it? Trying to get- On your bun? Long time, no see. Huh?  So long, bud. See you around. Yeah, yeah, goodbye. Jack, Jack, who was that fella?  He's always trying to talk me out of everything. I got to finish my shopping. So long, Maylon. Oh, just a minute, Jack. Yeah? I'm having a big party on New Year's Eve. I know, I know. You've already invited me. Yes. And I thought that since you've given so many parties, you could help me out a bit. You see, I've already hired a caterer, and I thought you might recommend a good bartender. Well, now that's the silliest thing, Maylon. Spending good money on a bartender. Why don't you get one of the boys in your band? I mean, get Frank Remly. Nobody knows more about drinks than he does. No, I wouldn't try that again, Jack. He was the bartender at the last party I gave. Well, what happened? Well, the first guest to arrive walked up in order to scotch and soda. Uh-huh. Remly bent down, got the scotch, never came up again. No kidding. Well, thanks for inviting me, anyway. I'll see you in New Year's. Good. And Jack, if you run into Don Wilson, see if you can persuade him to come to the party, too. Persuade Don Wilson? Yes. He never wants to go anywhere since he's taking up painting as a hobby. Painting as a hobby? Say, I'm glad you mentioned that, Maylon. I was worried what to get done for Don. You know, last year, I got him a box that dates with nuts in them and everything. Now I'll get him some paints. I'm going to the art department. I'll see you later. They sure have everything for them. The artist here. Where's the salesman? Oh, there he is. Oh, clerk, clerk. Uh, yes, sir. What can I... Oh, it's you again. Huh? How do you find me every year? You got radar or something? I don't know. I don't know. What are you talking about? Gee, he doesn't recognize me. Maybe everything's going to be okay. What are you mumbling about, clerk? Oh, nothing, nothing. What can I do for you, sir? Well, a friend of mine has taken up painting as a hobby, and I'd like to get him a nice set of paints. Oh, oh, very good, sir. Now, now, here's a set that's very popular and reasonable, too. It's only $9.95. Well, gee, those tubes of paint seem very small. Well, that's right. They're very small. See, those tubes of paint seem very small. Well, that's right, sir, but they're the best paints, and in addition to the primary colors, it also contains such exotic colors as vermilion, chartreuse, toycois, cerise, heliotrope, citron, pipe of fuchsia, cardinal red, point d'orrent, mimac blue, and shocking pink. Yeah, it has a lot. See, that's a beautiful color right there. That's the most beautiful color I've ever seen. What do you call it? Money Green. Well, I'll take it. Now, I'd like a gift wrap. Yes, sir. I'll be back in a second with it. Gee. He didn't even recognize me. And he didn't give me the least bit of trouble. In fact, he was real sweet. Oh, boy, I'm lucky. I'll say I'm lucky. This is my lucky day. There. Yeah, that looks pretty. Well, here you are, sir. That'll be ten and a quarter including packs. Ten and a quarter? Yeah, it seems like a lot to pay for just a few paints. Well, not when you consider what you're getting. Most people don't mind paying any extra money for oil paints. They last so much longer than the watercolors. Oh. You have watercolors, too?  I had to tell him, yeah. I couldn't let well enough alone. I had to tell him. Clark, how much is the watercolors, sir? Three ninety-five, but you're... they're not nearer. I don't know. I don't know. Three ninety-five, but you're... they're not near as nice as these are. I don't care. I want to see the watercolors, sir. Okay. Okay, I'll have to climb this ladder to get it. It's on the top shelf. I had to tell him. I had to tell him. I wish I could paint red spots on my face so he'd think I had smallpox and he'd go away. I wish I had smallpox. I wouldn't do any good. This guy's lived so long, he must be immune to everything. He must be immune to everything. He must be immune to everything. But it's my own fault. Here's the watercolour set, Mr. Look at it. Look at it. Say it. This looks okay. But it's only got five colours.  I don't care. It's three ninety-five and I'll take it. Now gift wrap it and I'll be back. I know you will. I know you will. Let's see. What else do I have to get? Gee, I still haven't gone yet. Yes, what can I do for you, young man? I'd like to buy a Christmas gift for my mother. Well, a negligee is always a very suitable gift. Now here's a lovely one that I'm sure would please your mother. No, she wouldn't like that one. She never wears anything with a low neckline. Oh, is she modest? No, she's tattooed. Well, here's something that might suit your mother more. Gee, that looks nice. Only I'd like it in a brighter colour. You see, my father is always depressed Well, we have a large selection of colours. But tell me, what size does your mother wear? Gee, I don't know. But she's about as tall as you are. Oh, does she have my build? If she did, my father wouldn't need cheering up. How does this one seem? Oh, that looks about the right size. I think she'll like it very much. Will you wrap it up and charge it please? Yes, sir. Now who shall I charge this to? To me, my name is Dennis Day. Dennis Day? The singer? Yes, ma'am. Oh, gee, Mr. Day, I'm one of your most ardent fans. I buy all your records and everything. Why, when I hear you sing, I just quiver and shake all over. Free coins in the fountain. There they lie in the fountain. Which one will the fountain charge? Mr. Day, Mr. Day! I'm not joking. No, I'm really a great admirer of yours. Oh, well, thanks. Thanks a lot. Dennis? Oh, Dennis? Huh? Oh, hello, Mr. Benny. Yeah, I heard you're singing. I was away in the other side of the store, but I thought it was a record. Maybe that's because I've got a hole in my head. Well, I gotta run along, Mr. Benny. I still have lots of shopping to do. Same here. So long, kid. Oh, Miss? Miss? Yes, sir? I'd like to get a gift for a girlfriend. Well, just a moment, sir. That man at the end of the counter was here first. Well, that's quite all right. Oh, there you are, Mr. Benny! Did you finish your shopping? Uh-huh. I even got a present for you. Oh, that's nice. What is it? Oh, now wait till Christmas. Oh, come on. Tell me, Rochester.  Is it something I can wear? Uh-huh. Is it something I'd wear above the waist? Uh-huh. A shirt? Nope. Is it something I wear above the shoulders? Uh-huh. I've got it. It's a hat. Well, that's a strange gift to give me. Why should you get me that? Well, I ruined one of your good ones and I threw it in the bendix and all the curls came out of it. Well, don't throw it away. Save it in case I ever get the part of an Indian in a picture. Okay. Are you done with your shopping, Mr. Benny? Not quite, but you know, I always have trouble getting something for Don Wilson, so I think I got him a gift he liked. A set of paints. Oh, he should like that, boss. Whenever he sees me, he talks to me about painting. He's really crazy about that, Harvey. I know, and I got him a lovely set of watercolors. Watercolors? Oh, he's way beyond that. For the past few months, he's been painting with nothing but oils. Are you sure? I'm positive. So Don only uses oil paints. Excuse me, Rochester. I'll see you later. Oh, why? There's no sun up in the sky. Stormy weather. Oh, Clark. Clark. Oh, it's you again. Here's your watercolors. I'll gift wrap them everything. Well, I've changed my mind. I want the oils. No. No. This can't be happening to me. I lead a good life. I'm kind to my mother. It can't be happening. He just cares. Okay. Okay. I'm getting calmer. I'll control myself. Good, good.  Certainly. What business are you in? I'm a comedian. I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not trying to be funny. I just made a simple request. I want the watercolors changed to oils. Now, please gift wrap them, and I'll be back to pick them up later. Let's see. I got to get Mary's gift, and then, oh, darn it, I'm out of cigarettes. I wonder where I can get some. Oh, there's a cigarette machine at the end of the aisle. There it is. Give it a fancy cigarette machine. Let's see. I ought to have some change.  Come here a minute. Who, me? Yeah, yeah. What are you doing? I'm getting a package of cigarettes. What kind? Lucky strikes. Lucky strike, eh? Smart boy. You're putting your dough on to favor it. I know, I know. And it's a great bet across the board. Win place and show? No, cleaner, fresher, smoother. And another thing. What? Come here a minute. Huh? Look at the breeding. The breeding? It's by sold American out of Goldsboro, North Carolina. Well, thanks. Thanks very much. You're going to get a pack of luckies? Am I going to get a pack of luckies? Yeah. Come here a minute. I'm going to get two packs. Two? I'm trying for the daily I'm trying for the daily I'm trying for the daily I'm trying for the daily double. Smart boy. So long and Merry Christmas. Same to you. Same to you. Same to you. If you want better taste in your cigarette Lucky strike is the brand to get. It's toasted, does he? I got the cigarettes. Now I've got to go. Hello, Mr. Penny. Why, Mr. Kitschoff. Who's here? Mr. Kitschoff. Hey, how you come along with your Christmas shopping? Practically finished. Did you buy some nice presents? Wonderful, especially for my magnificent mother-in-law. Oh, your mother-in-law? Yeah, this year I'm giving to my mother-in-law such a gift. I'm proud I thought of it. A trip to Hawaii. Why, Mr. Kitschoff, what a wonderful thing to give a mother-in-law. A round trip to Hawaii. Who said anything about a round trip to Hawaii? Oh, oh, oh. Well, I better run along. Goodbye, Mr. Penny. Okay, well, Merry Christmas, Mr. Kitschoff. Happy you tie to you. Here you are, sir. And I assure you it's a lovely gift. Well, thank you. And I hope you have a wonderful Christmas and do come back again. I don't even know if I'm going to leave.  Miss, can you please? Hello, Don. Well, hi, Jack. Hey, hey. I'll bet I know something you don't know. What's that? I ran into Bagby, the piano player, and now I know what the boys in the band are going to give you for Christmas. What, what, what? Beautiful set of golf clubs. Oh, isn't that wonderful. I can use a new set. I can hardly wait till Christmas. Well, you may even get them before Christmas if the paint dries. Come on, I'd know who not to play with. What characters they are. By the way, Don, how's your wife? Oh, she's fine now. Now? Yeah, just a few weeks ago she broke out in hives and her eyes were always watering and the doctors didn't know what it was until they found out she had an allergy. Gosh, what was she allergic to? The oil in oil paints. No. Yeah, so now I'm going to have to go back to watercolors. Don? That's right. Excuse me, Don. I've got to go somewhere. Now, Melville, control yourself. I can't, I can't control myself, Beatrice. I'm, I'm going to quit. No, no, Mel. It can't be that bad. Can't be that bad. Look, in the first place, how he finds me I'll never know, but first he buys oil paints, then he changes them to watercolors, then back to oils, then watercolors, then oils. He keeps coming back like a boomerang. I'm going to the office right now, Quinn. No, no, no, look, look, Mel. I'll tell you what to do. You go and take a nice long lunch hour and lie down and I'll take your place at the counter. Well, okay. Okay. When he comes, that's his package of oil paints right there. I'll see you later.  I can't let him quit now. It'll ruin all our plans. We worked in the store together so long. We met in the store. He even proposed to me in the store. And now we're married. Excuse me. Excuse me, Miss. Yes, sir. What can I do for you? Well, where's the clerk who's usually here? Well, he's gone to lunch, but perhaps I can help you. Well, I'm supposed to have a package of oil paints ready for me. Yes, sir. Wait a minute. This must be the man who's been driving Mel crazy. Yet it can't be. This guy couldn't bother anybody. He's such a kindly-looking old schnook. A package of gift-wrapped oil paints. 10-25, sir. Look, Miss, I changed my mind. I'd like to get a box of watercolors instead. But, sir, you'd wrap the watercolors. The customer's always right. I'll get some watercolors and wrap them and I'll be right back. See, while she's gone, I'd better write out a card for Don. Let's see, I want her to be something clever. Oh, I've got it. To Don Wilson. Here's lots of colors for portraits to paint. But don't paint yourself, because that much there ain't. See, that's cute. People say I need writers. I'll sign a Jack Benny. Oh, Miss, Miss. Ah, here are your watercolors. Isn't that a pretty package? Yes, it is. Now, will you please unwrap it and put this card inside? Card inside? Miss, I went to a lot of trouble unwrapping the other one and gift-wrapping this one. Have a little consideration, will you? The fish.  Idiot! Listen, you jerk, you're talking about my Melville. I don't care who I'm talking about. Now unwrap that package and put the card inside. Oh, no, not me. I know all about you. Melville warned me. First you wanted oil paints, then watercolors, then oil paints, then dates with nuts, and then plain dates. Dates? Then plastic tips, then metal tips, then plastic tips, then metal d- Then dates with oil, then plastic water, then shoelace, with nuts. I'll just send Don a card this year.

Uh, garoppolo.

That won't happen They should trade one of the pats for like a seventh rounder That's what they should do the trade one of the pats like a seventh rounder And then they should also trade, um, often as a coordinator to the pats Probably a bigger need for the pats than anything right there It's a competent coordinator It's for all davis on the pats card 22 out of 25 broncos NFC afc west wild card points again random to all at the ends And dalvin cook to 75 NFC north.

Howly beautiful. Welcome to the game show where we pick one drugstore shampoo that is the best of all, except maybe none of them are the best. I'll be testing out Dove Herbal Essence, Pantene and Tressame, things that I've heard of before but I've never ventured into. In fact, I've never actually used drugstore shampoo. I have an explanation for this.  Since birth I had been using professional grade shampoo. So this will be very interesting for you and very interesting for me to figure out if these are actually not as bad as, you know, some hairdressers make them out to be. I'm all for cheap products that work well, like that's totally cool. Everybody, you know, needs to be able to afford a nice shampoo even if you only have $6 to spare. We're gonna figure out if it matters where you get your shampoo, drugstore or salon and if the price actually matters or if there is actually some good things out there for a very low price, which I hope there is. Let's get testing. Let's figure out which one of these shampoos, if any, I actually recommend using. Let's do it. Let's begin. I'll be going through one shampoo at a time, testing it full on through and figure out what the hell is going on and if it's good or if it's bad. Please give me my first shampoo victim of the day. Dove. That's the wrong way. That's the wrong way. Dove. And the retail price of this is a whopping $5.99. Girl, I have never in my life knew that these things were so cheap. Let's go based off of the look of the bottle real quick. It says 100% recycled bottle. If you're into recycled things, which I think everybody should be, go for it. This says cruelty free on it, which is great. I much prefer vegan hair care, but you're not really gonna find that in the drugstore. I don't think I could be wrong, but nothing we have today I don't think is vegan. This is the daily moisture shampoo. Everything we'll be trying today is moisturizing because I feel like a lot of people like that really soft, shiny, glowing, moisturized hair and most people need moisture. This is shampoo for everyday care, nourishing system for smooth hair, resilient to daily damage. This is 12 ounces. Okay, so why don't we just crack this open and smell her? It honestly just smells like generic shampoo to me. It's not a very expensive scent. It just kind of smells like soap. It's very fresh. Can you smell that? Like a body wash way fresh? Yeah, like a body wash. What do you think that smell is though? Like floral. Floral fresh. Floral like fresh, like in Tahiti.  Moving on, so we're gonna touch this now. Definitely feels like shampoo to me. It is quite sticky and gummy, which is usually something that happens in moisturizing shampoos because of some of the moisturizing ingredients are quite sticky and thick. Happens in my shampoos. It happens in most people's moisturizing shampoos, which is actually nice because I like a heavier shampoo for moisturizing benefits and this seems to definitely be heavier. It is very much on my fingers. Very basic ingredient list, some sulfates, which guys, sulfates are not all bad, so chill with that. Fragrance is really high up on the list. It is like the fourth ingredient that is a lot of fragrance. Domethicone, citric acid, sodium benzoate. Oh yeah. The ingredient list is just so basic. For me, it'd be like building the base of a shampoo and then not putting any additives to actually make it good for your hair. There's nothing that's really going to promote healthy hair growth and a healthy scalp. Be in blunt with ya. No wonder why it's $6. You know, you're really getting the basics of hair care with this. Next thing we're gonna be doing is testing this baby. We'll be testing every single one of these shampoos on a hair strand right before your eyes and then at the end, once I'm done reviewing all the shampoos I have today, we'll go back and we'll touch all the hair strands once they're all dry and figure out which one actually just feels the best. Let me grab a bowl of water and let's start testing this baby out. That's your cue. Let's do a little dunkaroo. Now that we got my water here. Yeah. A little ASMR for ya. Girl, that's a lot of lather. It feels slimy. Okay.  The strand has been shampooed. We're gonna let that dry. Let's move on to our next shampoo victim of the day. Up next we have herbal essence. Hello. This retails for $6.29. That'll break the bank, baby. Woo. So let's talk about the bottle. It's exactly what I would expect. I will say the cap is easy to use and it's functional. The actual product seems to have a nice, beautiful pearly color. So I like that. Pretty typical front and back label moment. A nice squishy little plastic bottle. That's about 12 ounces. This says rebel in the lush aromas. Great, more aromas. Deep moisture for hair. Hello, hydration. Hair and body wash, shampooing plus gel douche. This is gel douche. 100% parabens, we like that. It's cruelty free, maybe with 100% renewable energy. Everybody's really into the recycle bottle thing, which is good. PH balanced and color safe. Dermatologist tested. What is a dermatologist testing with this skincare? It says body. So what, obviously? Hair and body. You literally read that out loud. Did you not process that in your head? No, I didn't. I'm scared. Okay, let's do a smell test. This one just smells like plastic. Smell this. I used to use herbal essence as a kick. I think it might just be the bottle that smells like plastic. It's literally the plastic is in the bottle. I really like the color a lot. It is a beautiful pearl color. A lot less thick than the dove one. It is more runny. You can see it dripping out of my hand right here.  We got another very short ingredient list. Surprise, surprise. We do have coconut extract though and corn. The perfume is a lot lower on the list than the dove one, I must say. The dove one, oh, you could tell it was a top ingredient. Also, flour extract. Definitely feels a little more professional quality than dove with the ingredients. And I appreciate that they at least put some thought into the ingredient list and then just make another generic shampoo. But coconut, you know, doesn't actually have the best rep for moisturizing properly. It tends to put a film over your hair fibers and on your skin and actually doesn't let moisture in. So don't love the coconut. You'll never see my products with coconut in them. It is a really gorgeous color. Like I love colored shampoos. I don't know why, just adds to the experience, you know? It's very blue though. Like it's almost toning. Great latherability. Smells so good. Right up those nostrils. Right up those old breathing tubes. All right, let's rinse this baby off. Wow, that is. We're gonna take her away and we'll review her when we're done. My next guest today is Tresume, yay, ooh la la. Whoa, I wasn't expecting it to be as heavy for some reason. Now that's because it's 28 milliliters. Oh, oh, 28 ounces. It is. Milliliters, right? This costs $5.49. It's the cheapest one of all. It is double the ounces of the last two we just used. Based off look, I actually do like the packaging. This one looks the most chic to me. Great job, Tresume with the labeling. I like the black a lot and like the metallic foil moment going on the front. It says moisture rich, seven times more luxurious with vitamin E. All right, I love vitamin E. Oh, and it has an asterisk versus non-conditioning shampoo. God, I love the marketing. It's so fun to read. There's a seven times more moisturizing. It smells like sweet tarts. Apparently that's what people like. People just want like this sweet floral generic scent. It's a lot. Like it'll give you a headache in five seconds. Whoa, caring for the planet. This bottle is made with at least 25% recycled material. Okay, want me a little bit less recycled than the other ones, I must say. Ooh, I love this little pearlescent color we have going on here. It is not that sticky. It's a little bit thinner than, you know, dove ingredients. Okay, so, Panthenol. AK is proven to be five, which is great for your hair and your skin. They have biotin in here. Fragrance is middle of the list so not that much fragrance. Besides biotin and panthenol, I really see nothing else that's quite professional quality or anything that's really amping this up and making it really great. I mean, those are very basic things to add. Panthenol especially. Not a great ingredient list, it's not the worst. Let's dip it in the water. Let's do a little doo-doo-doo. Put that on there. Interesting. I do have to say it's lathering a little less than the other two, which is totally fine. Using Professional Shampoo, I mean it really does not suds up even close to drugstore for some reason. There's not as many surfactants in Professional Shampoo as there is in drugstore from my findings today, but that could be wrong on that. I am rinsing this strand off, feeling fresh, it's feeling moisturized, I will say. And let's put this out to dry and let's move on. My last and final Drugstore Shampoo of the day. I feel like this is gonna be the winner.  Hand the thing to me. Okay, yes. Hand it to me. Pantene, that's the one. Pantene Shampoo retails for $5.99. And it is 20 ounces. This is the second largest. They did a good job at making this look nice for not a lot of money because you can tell that this is just screen printed on here. This metallic printing on the front looks great and it has like a little thing for your shampoo to get caught in. I love this cap. I actually like this bottle. Daily moisture renewal, 24 hour hydration. I would hope the hydration wouldn't fall out of your hair. Nutrient rich lather, effortless, detangling and lasting shine. This one smells more like candy than the Tressame one does. I just would never want to smell like this.  One of the most expensive things to put in a shampoo is a nice scent and you can really tell when you smell something that's different, like say Orbe or like X-Mondo, you can tell that we put a lot of effort into the scent. It actually has different notes to it and the scent is different on everybody's head because it mixes with your natural oils. Some brands put a lot of money into that and some brands clearly don't. Another nice pearly color. This one is the thinnest of all and yeah, it doesn't feel that sticky so it probably doesn't have a ton of moisturizing benefits but it feels normal. Really like your sticky texture, don't you? Yeah, I love it. Yeah, you do. I don't like it sticky, don't you? Yeah, somebody else do. I like it anyway, I can get it. Oh, there it is. Okay, ingredient list. Fragrance middle of the list, totally normal. Kanthanol is the only ingredient that I see that doesn't need to be here but it has been added in generic as hell. Stool dunkaroo. It is lathering. Woo, yes it is. A lot of lathering, I will say. It shakes me up every time. Let's get them all dried and let's give you the final verdict. Okay, so all the hair strands have been blow dried. We also have this hair strand here. I'll be touching this one and then touching the after because this is a strand of extension that has not been shampooed yet. First hair strand, please, a dove. Perfect.  I haven't talked about all about scent today but it smells really bad. I have to say, the before one feels softer than after and also looks shinier but it's very hard to tell. Pretty easy to detangle and it was pretty slippery and definitely moisturized. I don't hate that. Definitely the ingredient list told me a lot about these. Let's keep going through. This is herbal essence. The scent actually is not there anymore or my nostrils are burned. Yeah, no, the scent is not really there anymore so I like that. I don't really like sense of linger if you do. Then maybe herbal essence isn't for you. This one feels like lighter and softer. It also looks shinier. This is before and this is after shampoo. Looks pretty much the same but it does feel like it got rid of that little bit of factory greasiness on this one. This one feels definitely like it's been washed and definitely gets a little bit of residue in your hands though. Pretty soft, hydrated feeling and it looks nice. Not mad at this one either. Tress may. To be honest, the hair just smells clean. The scent really did go away. Doesn't really feel like hydrated in my opinion. It doesn't really feel slippery. It doesn't really feel smooth. No dull, not obsessed. The other two I think were better, which is interesting. And lastly, we have Pantene. The scent is still a little bit stronger than the other ones. Besides dub, dub is definitely the strongest and dub also has the fragrance as like one of the top ingredients, so it makes sense. It doesn't really feel too hydrated. It's definitely similar to the Tress May one where it doesn't exactly feel like it did a lot. It definitely feels clean but not smoothed out, but decent. Let's go down the list of cheapest to most expensive and let's see if price matters or I mean, even if drugstore shampoo is something you should be using or maybe not. Tress May is by far the cheapest because it is almost double the size of the other ones and it's only $5.49, which is just crazy. Ingredient list kind of blows. The hair didn't really feel that great. You definitely get a lot for what you pay for so I will say that's good and if you like pretty packaging, well I think this one looks really nice. Would I personally recommend to use this? No. I don't think your hair is gonna fall out. I don't think it's gonna ruin your hair. I just really don't think it's gonna be that beneficial. Doesn't mean I hate the whole brand Tress May or any of these brands I'm about to talk about. It doesn't mean I hate them. It just means that this particular product didn't live up to my standards. Let's just not use this one. Okay, Pantene comes in second cheapest. It is 20 ounces and it is $5.99. So that is damn cheap. The scent, you guys. That was a deal breaker for me in the beginning. It smells like you put candy in a tube. The ingredient list is just so boring and bland and there's literally nothing good about the ingredient list. Wouldn't recommend. Stuff is also $5.99, but you only get 12 ounces. Well, not only. You get 12 ounces, which is a decent amount. This one is 100% recycled, so that is really cool. Saved the environment. We love that. This one was by far the worst smelling one of all and the scent lingers like crazy. The hair strand felt kind of nice actually, but the scent is just really a deal breaker for me. If you like heavy scents and the basic ingredient list that does really not allow for your hair besides wash it. This is your girl, not obsessed. Okay, this one, Herbal Essence just so happens to be the most expensive one, $6.29. And I'm also gonna say something right now that might shock you. I don't absolutely hate this. If you're a very budget conscious and you want something under $10 for shampoo, Herbal Essence, you kind of like did a few things here. The scent, when it's out of the bottle, it doesn't smell as much like plastic as I said it did. When it's out of the bottle, it smells okay. It made the hair feel nice. They use a recycled bottle. It's pH balanced. It's color safe. It's cruelty free. It's dermatologist tested. And the ingredient list was kind of cute. At least they put a little thought into it. They added coconut oil. Things that you don't need to put in has a drug store brand that they actually put some thought into and a little bit more effort. Herbal Essence, you win today. For drug store, it's the best. One that we tried today. Wow. I know. My parents did something right. That's the one that they used to get as Herbal Essence. Well, Herbal Essence, you win. The other ones, please just maybe put a little more thought into our shampoos that we use and just read the ingredient list. When you see a bunch of things that you have literally no idea of the name of and that's all you see, usually the ingredient list is just very poor and they're just trying to clean your hair and strip it of all its natural oils and literally put nothing back into it. And that's the difference between professional hair care and drug store, I guess. The ingredients are very thought about. They're also very trendy and cutting edge typically with professional hair care. And I know with my stuff, I try to put every little ounce of knowledge about hair into my ingredient list. There is much as that you don't know the name of but there's also a lot of stuff that you will know and you will be familiar with. That is the biggest difference of all. That's how you can tell if a shampoo is cheap or not. And also the scent. But we've talked a lot about that today. Make sure you subscribe down below if you're not already. Hit the like button and bell icon, that'd be great. Follow my Instagram at xmodohair on Instagram or shop below at xmodohair. Follow me everywhere else. Here are all my handles, there you go. And make sure you text me. Yes, this is a real number. Yes, I really get all your texts and yes, I can really text you back and I'll be choosing a few of you to do just that. Today's Instagram shoutout goes to Alexandra. So she basically says that she's never had her hair not a shade of brown. And she wants to know what she should do. She has pretty fair skin, hazel eyes and natural hair colors and ashy, medium brown. Any suggestions would be amazing. Okay, okay, okay. She also was wondering should she do a ginger obern and yes, Alexandra, you should.  And it'll be so easy to do. You can use a dummy permanent color and if you don't like it, it'll come out. That's what you should do. If you've never done anything to your hair before, a little more on the wilder side, then try that first. And if you end up doing it, send me a picture, I would love to see it. That's all for today, guys. Thank you so much for watching. Don't forget to live your extra life and I'll see you next time. Bye, guys. Bye, guys.


Hello and welcome to video 3 of the DHIS to GIS Academy. In this video, I'll be giving you a brief introduction to QGIS and how to import data. Firstly, we'll go through setting up a QGIS project, saving it and defining a projection for our project. And secondly, I'll show you how to import Raster Invector data and finally how to style the data. Firstly, open QGIS by clicking on your desktop shortcut, by searching for it in the window search bar, or for Mac users, go to finder and then on the sidebar click applications and locate the QGIS 16 icon. When QGIS is loaded, you'll be met with a screen that looks like this. We'll start off by saving our project in an appropriate location on our computers. It is a good practice to save QGIS projects as you are going along. The steps to do this are to go to project, save as, and within an appropriate location on your computer, such as the DHIS to underscore training folder I created earlier, save your project under appropriate name. I'll be calling my project DHIS to QGIS training and pressing save. You've now saved your project. You're able to click the save button here to save your project at any moment as we're going along these exercises. Next, we need to set up our coordinate projected systems in our project. To do this, you can click on the projection box on the lower right hand side, and this opens up the project properties and the coordinate restaurant system for our project. I'll be using the WGS 1984 UTM Zone 29 coordinate restaurant system. This because I want to be working within a coordinate reference system which uses meters. You should locate the appropriate UTM zone reference system. You can find this online quickly and then you'll be able to apply it by pressing apply and OK. We're now ready to import the first of our required datasets. To do this, we'll go to layer, add layer, and go to address the layer. We're now going to add the population dataset we downloaded earlier for our countries. In my case, it was the Sierra Leone population dataset. We'll click the dotted browse button here, and within our DHIS2 underscore training folder, click on the raster dataset which will look something like this, SLE underscore PPP underscore 2020, unadjusted underscore constraint, and press open, then press add. As you can see, this has added the population dataset to our map extent. The next step is to add in our geo-adjacent files which were downloaded from the DHIS2 platform. So go to layer, add layer, and add vector layer. Here we're going to press the browse button once again, and we're going to click on our damer, facilities geo-adjacent, and whilst pressing the control button, also click the Kinema chiefdoms geo-adjacent file, and press open. We leave these as default and press add. As you can see, we have now loaded all of our datasets into QJS. Next, we're going to change symbology on our datasets. To do this, we're going to right click on our datasets, go to properties, and go to symbology. For our population dataset, we're going to change the render type from single band gray to single band pseudo color. We're now going to change the color ramp, and we can change it to any of these colors, whichever you see fit and can easily work with. I'm going to use Viridis. In our mode, I'm going to press equal interval, and I'm going to change the classes to six. You can change your color ramps to any settings you would like. It just helps visualize the data and be able to see where the highest populations are and where the lowest populations are in your raster.  As you can see, if we zoom into our map, you can see the areas of high population in yellow and low population in blue. If you want to quickly see how many population, how many people live in an area, you can press the identify button. And if you click on a square or a pixel, you can see the identify results pop up here. In this case, the pixel I clicked on has 297 people. Next, we're going to go back and symbolize our vector data sets. To do this, double click on the data set, go to simple fill and press no brush and press apply. So we've just done this for our district's data set. We can now move on to our facilities data set. In the same action, double click, and you get to your properties and symbology box. Here we're just going to simply change the symbology of our data so we represent health facilities in an appropriate way. I'm going to choose the Toppo Hofstahl marker, as this is a universal marker for centres providing healthcare. I'm going to press apply and OK. I'm now going to save and that's it. We're ready to move on.


The morning markets pick off With your host Tommy O'Brien Everybody I'm Tommy O'Brien comedy live from TFN and headquarters in St. Petersburg, Florida 830 a.m. On Wednesday one hour to go until they had opening bell and we got markets in positive territory So far looking for a positive open right near record territory if we open where we are right now You have S&P futures up almost 14 points at 3333 Nasdaq futures up 60 at 92 30 Dow futures up about 75 points trading at 29254 Ten-year yield excuse me 1.77 percent as we start things off and we're gonna jump over to the VIX this morning as you would expect The market positive territory the VIX back under 1250 to 1243 got a little bit of a spike yesterday and some negative action in the market above 13 that having to do with the Coronavirus the first victim unfortunately the first patient I should say in the US that climbing to 13 But it doesn't take long for the market to get back to record territory as the Dow looks to open at almost 100-point sire and we have the S&P's up about four tenths percent Nasdaq right now up almost Seven tenths percent in the green. We'll start things off. I'm gonna kick it off with the indices There's your dial 30 put things in context. There was the falloff yesterday when the first reported patient in Washington state and contracted the coronavirus which had been isolated to China prior to this. It's now six different countries I believe that that virus has spread a little bit of fears reverberating the market trades from 29,000 245 down to almost 29,100 but as you can see it doesn't take long the market finishes up at about 29,150 and Overnight we climb higher some of that having to do with earnings IBM with strong numbers Netflix with strong numbers as well We'll get into those numbers briefly Dow 29,246 right now Nasdaq 100 quite a Rebound a little bit of a different chart here as you can see there's your falloff to correlate to where we were in the Dow But boy oh boy talk about climbing higher than Nasdaq 100 above 92 40 briefly currently trading 92 28 There's your S&P's as well eclipsing where we were yesterday looking to open at record territory Actually made a high of 33 36 we get above there Yeah, 33 36 the high print on the S&P futures at about 10 30 last night just under that level of 33 31 Crude oil backing off a bit some volatility in crude yesterday. We got up to about 58 67 crude trading lower with the market as well And you know what let me get a yes, we're all set crude oil now under $58 trading at $57.75 cents Goal contract 1554 you see the action yesterday for gold pretty much just under where we were as of yesterday Afternoon and the euro US dollar just under 111 the euro trading 110 87 Terms of what else it is earning season Netflix after the bell last night a much anticipated number and by all intents and purposes They had some volatility last night, but it looks like they delivered as Netflix shares trading higher a bit this morning Netflix added 8.8 million subscribers. We'll get into the numbers down here So they have earnings per share a buck 30 revenue 5.47 billion not bad for 90 days right versus 5.45 domestic 550,000 versus 89,000 international there's your number 8.33 million versus 7.17 million that what the market is especially liking now domestic I believe that speaks to North America so US and Canada in the US it actually added about 420,000 subscribers for the first quarter in 2020 Netflix expects to report earnings of a buck 66 on Revenue of 5.73 billion that's compared to estimates of about a buck 20 and 5.76 so a beat there in terms of earnings buck 66 what they're looking for in the first quarter and guidance the gum the company also Expects to add 7 million paid subscribers in the first quarter, but that is short of the 7.86 million company reported negative free cash flow of 1.7 billion that was a negative for the quarter and expects to see negative free cash flow of about 2.5 billion in 2020 Netflix reiterated that it's cash burned peaked in 2019 and said it's now moving slowly toward being cash Free cash flow positive in the future pretty remarkable on those types of numbers 5.7 billion dollars in 90 days They are spending that much money on production of content that they are actually negative in cash flow We're on a glide path slowly towards positive free cash flow Netflix CEO read Hastings said on the earnings call We're excited about that, but that's not coming from shrinking back our content spending that's coming from increasing the revenue and Operating income and to jump over to Netflix shares and see where we're trading at this morning a Little bit of a decline actually since I last checked on it So we closed yesterday at 338 11 and we're within $1 of that price right now at 338 97 This is a 15 minute chart for a little bit of a shorter time frame There's your five minute chart talk about some volatility when they first come out with that number You were anywhere from a high and this is in the first five minutes We traded up to a high of 352 a low right now a low on that bar of 331 You got a brief spike now. I'm not sure. I mean that looks like it almost could be just a one-print spike to 367 the remarkable thing here thinkers from platform. They have that one day expected move Which they take from the volatility priced into the options at the money puts and calls Netflix was looking for about $25 of movement. So a call was gonna cost you at the money about 12 to $13 a Put was gonna cost you at the money a similar 12 to $13 if you were on the other side absorbing that premium Boy, oh boy, Netflix looking to open almost flat this morning on those earnings numbers Terms of what else jumping around we had IBM numbers as well They beat rising as much as 5% on strong strong earnings report Revenue grew slightly in the quarter, but that's a big one because they had five quarters of decline So first quarter in five that they have revenue actually growing Morgan Stanley had cut IBM last week There are the numbers for IBM earnings 471 a share.

And 7 a.m.. This morning It's kind of one of the great experiments of all time, and we still don't know what the ultimate outcome is I would agree with that myself Negative interest rates have been used by central banks in Japan and Europe to try and stimulate their stubbornly stagnant economies Economists are divided over their effectiveness to reignite economic growth And some feared negative rates can keep growth subdued rather than lift it There's just commentary from CNBC, but interesting they have been used in conjunction with quantitative easing in the U.S. And abroad where central banks purchase at assets like t-bills I think it's very hard for central banks to forever make up for bad policy elsewhere Diamond said that puts them in a trap. We're a little bit in that trap today with rates so low around the world I would never buy a negative rate bond not unless I was forced diamond added in history whenever you've seen anything like that it doesn't necessarily and Well the CEO of the biggest bank in the world saying that he with their money would never touch a negative interest rate bond and Fundamentally folks right think about it Why are you gonna loan somebody money if they're gonna give you less money back when you go to school, right?  It's almost the foundation of everything that goes into the economy. So I say that because In the next sentence you have President Trump saying that our GDP would be near 4% and the Dow could be 10,000 points higher if it weren't for the Fed basically meaning that our interest rates are too high Keep that in context of what we just heard from the CEO of the biggest and best and most profitable bank in the world JP Morgan you have President Trump said the US economic growth will be close to 4% if it weren't for lingering effects of the Federal Reserve Rate hikes, but we had Boeing we had big strike with GM We had things happen very unusual now with all of that had we not done the big raise on interest big raise on interest folks Keep this in context I think we would have been close to 4% and I could see 5 to 10,000 points higher in the Dow folks We just came off a 30% year in 2019 Interest rates. I believe the 10 year. Let's get it up 1.77 That you are paying on a 10 year US Treasury as of this morning And you have the president talking about that interest rates are way too high And it's the only thing holding back our economy and then you have the CEO of the biggest bank in the world Talking about that the only thing he fears is that interest rates actually go too low go negative and that that messes with the economy We have going on President Trump told CNBC on Wednesday US growth would have been close to 4% if it weren't for those rate hikes That was a big blip that should not have taken place. It should not have happened But it's one of those things we had Boeing we had the strike with GM We had things happen the president also suggested the stock market would be even higher than it's already record setting highs If the Fed hadn't raised rates so quickly before cutting them three times in 2019 now with all of that Had we not done the big raise on interest I think we would have been close to 4% 4% is kind of this magical number that likes to be touted out there We got it briefly when we had the tax cuts last year keep in mind those tax cuts have added trillions of dollars to the national debt For a brief rise in the GDP which now seems to Kind of stem back not much investment in terms of capital expenditure, which seemed to be the touted Reason for that you cut corporate tax corporate tax rates, right? Those companies take that money invest in capital expenditure that grows the economy that grows the base that's going to be paying taxes None of that has happened folks the debt keeps rising And I could see that five to ten thousand points on the Dow Well, you make your own decisions folks, but pair that with what you have on jayme diamond saying this morning I find that pretty interesting other news out there Airline stocks united airlines profit surge nearly 40 percent on cheaper fuel and strong demand United posted net income of 614 million during the fourth quarter up 39 percent from a year earlier period on revenues Of 10.89 billion Revenue is almost 4 percent higher than a year earlier and slightly above estimates the carriers per share earnings Came in at 267 compared with 265 the chicago base carrier reported earnings on revenue tuesday that narrowly beat the estimates We went in 614 million United expanded capacity in the fourth quarter by 2.6 percent That's a big number to expand their capacity when you're talking about an airline that is so mammoth lodge already United is one of the u.s.

Welcome to interview a production of the Government Information Service. I am Jolene B. Set-Joseph. The Chefs in Schools Cook-Off Competition is an initiative of the St. Lucia Hotel and Tourism Association, since its conception, the aim of the initiative, is to aid in providing guidance to food and nutrition students from industry chefs. Now on the run-up to the competition, GIS has had a range of interviews with the schools who will be participating in the Cook-Off Competition. The competition was held on the 13th and 14th of June, respectively, and they had to tell us a little bit about the results and how this year's competition went. Is Mr. Wendell George, who is the Tourism Enhancement Fund project coordinator at the SLHDA. Thank you for joining us today, Wendell. Hi. Thank you very much. Okay. So tell me a little bit about this year's competition. On a whole, very generally, how do you think it went? The competition was, I would say, in one word, awesome. And also exciting. I mean, we had a beautiful audience. We had ten schools in the competition, and each of the schools we had supporters. Teachers came out to view and see the event. Like you know, it's two rounds of competition. The students, they train for, well, they practice based on their signature dish, and also they were expecting the mystery baskets round as well. The two rounds were very exciting. I mean, it's one thing seeing it on television or seeing it from somebody's smartphone who recorded it, but it's something else when you're in the audience and you're seeing it right there. The students under pressure, they're working against time, and I mean, it's just something different and something to experience. So all in all, it was a really, really good experience for the students, the teachers, the chefs who trained them as well, and for everyone who was part of the event and the sponsors as well. Okay, brilliant. Now, tell me a little bit about what the results were for this year. Who came for the second round? So this year, in the first round of the competition, the Souffre Compris had the highest points. So the schools who actually came in second was convent. That's in the first round of the competition. In the second round of the competition, the St. Joseph's convent, they topped that round, and Souffre Compris came in second. But what the competition is, what we do, we add both the points from both rounds. Since Souffre Compris had much more points in the first round, overall, when we added the points, Souffre Compris is the overall champion and the overall winner for this year. So Souffre Compris, they were the champions for 2019, followed by St. Joseph's convent, who came in second, and the Leonhurst Secondary School came in third. So we awarded the top three schools. The dishes were just something of, oh, you know, something to be, I mean, because the thing is these students, when I compare them to the senior chefs working in the industry already, they, these students, put these guys to shame. I mean the level of professionalism in two months of training. So just imagine if they had more time to train, more time to be exposed to the kitchen and the different formats and techniques of cooking and so on. They could do a lot more. So it just goes to show how much this experience and the training can develop the aspiring cooks from the school around the island. So I want to say congratulations to the Souffre Compris Secondary School. Those persons who came in second and just generally all the students who competed and made this event what it was this year. Now you were talking about the high standard within the competition. Do you believe that, I mean, it's an annual thing. So have you seen as you have progressed with the competition that the level of ability has grown throughout the years, do you believe that's happened? Definitely. Because what the hotels do, every year they give a different chef the opportunity to train students. And so every year you see a different level of expertise and techniques and so on. So I mean, generally the chefs from the hotels themselves, as time goes by, they grow. The techniques become better. So they pass it on to the students as well. So definitely as the competition progresses, as it gets better every year, the whole experience, the whole competition, the students will learn more because there's a lot more information out there. There's a lot more programs. There's Instagram, there's Facebook where they can get all the techniques, they can see videos live, they can watch food network channels and so on. So our young millennials right now, they're exposed to all the information. It's right there in front of them and it's free. You can learn anything via YouTube. If you never knew how to make a chocolate cake or you have to do just type it in and find it on YouTube. I've made stuff just by typing on YouTube. Any little thing. You can even make your own sodas using our own local ingredients and just adding some soda water and stuff to give that little sparkle and stuff. So it's just amazing that everything that you want to learn is right there in front of you. It's just how passionate you are about it and how bad do you really want to learn. There's a lot more to talk about but we're going to go to a commercial break now. So when we come back, we'll carry on this conversation about how the competition went this year. But stay with us, we'll be right back. One of the eight university-recognized rights of the consumer is the right to be heard. This means that every consumer who is dissatisfied with a good or service has the right to lodge a complaint to the provider of that good or that service. This should be the first point of lodging a complaint. Ensure that the receipt, as proof of the transaction, is available. Welcome back to Interview. I'm Jolene V. Setjoseph and I am joined by Wendell George of the SNHDA who's telling us a little bit about how the chef's in school's cook-off competition went this year. Now Wendell, we're talking about the high standards and everything that the participants showed throughout the competition. What exactly is it that the judges actually look for in the competition, however though? Well, the judges looked for just four general different criteria. First of all, presentation, because sometimes, based on how the food looks, it can be appealing or not really appealing. So presentation is key as well. The food temperature, techniques, knife skills, and also sanitation, which is very important in those types of events. So those are the general criterias that the judges were looking for. We had five judges this year, split in two days. On the first day, we had Chef Ricardo Alexander from the Hotel Chocolat. We had Chef Rifa Leos from Sandoval Sotok, and we also had Chef Orlando Sashel from Orlando's in Souffre. On the second day, we had Kevin White, who's the owner of Crown Foods. Rifa Leos also helped us out on the second day as well. Then we had Chef Mario Marshall, who was a former chef at Sandoval Sotok and Royalton. But now he works for himself. So those are the judges who really helped out for those two days of the competition. Okay, brilliant. Now again, we talked about the high stand and everything. Was there anything like what made the, especially maybe I should say the top two stand out for the judges? Is it that they pulled something unbelievable out of their hat? What did they do to really make sure they got those positions? I think it's everything in terms of the way they work together, the teamwork, the way they synchronize, the way they, the techniques that they use, the plating, and just generally the whole competition for the two first place. Because they really put on a good show and their dishes taste really, really good. It's not easy for them and for the chef sometimes, their coach, to just get an ingredient or particular protein mixed with a Winfresh product, for example, because Winfresh was the sponsor this year. So they would have to use probably a Winfresh hot sauce or a Winfresh tamarind marinade and you would have to use that and create a beautiful dish out of it. It's the first time the students would be using the product, they have to use the right amount and use it innovatively. So I think they also get extra points for using those products innovatively. So it added a twist to the competition, having Winfresh on board and I also want to say thank you to Winfresh too for coming on board this year for the events. So I think generally that's what really made the two, the three top schools stand out. Generally all the techniques, food presentation and the use of the product in the food. Now I know in your capacity at the SLHDA you have also worked somewhat in the kind of a training capacity whereas you make sure that young people get training in such legs. So in your opinion, how important do you think a competition like this is for young people to partake in? It is extremely important because if we don't, who's going to? We're in an industry that is growing every day. The trend changes and we need to adapt to the new trends that are coming and if we don't expose our students, our young aspiring hospitality professionals to those types of training then we put them at a disadvantage and also the industry at a disadvantage because when our clients come, our guests come, they expect a certain experience and a certain product and they're not getting that based on what is advertised and so on. So I think it's important that SLHDA continues to play that vital role in the training and development of our human resources in St. Lucia. That's important not just for hospitality, generally for all industries because all the other industries out there play a vital role in tourism as well. They're all linked so I mean from construction to IT to agriculture, they all play a vital role in tourism and it's important that we continue to build that linkage and to strengthen it and make the industry generally better. Okay, all right. Now we're running out of time but very generally, can you just tell me where do you think that SLHDA want to go with the competition? Is it a standard that you think they'll be happy for it to continue at or do you see the competition growing still? I think the competition will definitely grow and as the interest from various schools begin to increase, the SLHDA will be obligated to make the event better and better because I mean you wouldn't want to bring a competition to a certain standard and then drop. Right. I mean it's, I just feel that we need to continue on that trajectory. We at SLHDA, we have maintained a certain standard and it is also part of our mandate to continue to do those types of events, continue to train our young people because there's a growing interest in tourism in culinary arts, surprisingly nowadays and I would definitely encourage you know persons to give it a try, don't be shy, don't be afraid. The opportunities are limitless and I think that tourism has a lot to offer, if we play our cards right. Okay. But Wendell, thank you so much for joining us today, it's always a pleasure to have you on. Thank you for being a part of the interview for today, however, from us here, bye-bye for now. Thank you.
