All right, good afternoon, cyber traders. Welcome on back here this Monday afternoon, March 13th. I just did a bunch of mouthwash. Got a very fresh mouth, but, oh man, not a good idea right before starting this meeting here. Great to see Brian and Michael Grant all included inside our live trading room. Better that than a dry mouth, I guess. But great to have all this back on social media, Facebook, Live, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, the works. But with that, I'll top right into it because the market's been pushing on up. I know we were looking for a pop-off support going into the mid-afternoon ever since it's been working out well, but it's been kind of slow. I mean, hopefully heading into three o'clock, 3.30. We tend to see a lot better traction going into the closing bell where we can see a much better run on the S&P. So with that, Mara, I mean, a beneficiary of crypto and Bitcoin moving up throughout the day.  Pretty much when crypto moves makes a bigger pop or push over time, we'll have to trade Mara, Ryan, obviously Coinbase, but you know, Mara is right within our price range. It's up big today, very volatile. And I say that in a good way. It's very liquid, you know, penny spread. I mean, the more expensive it'll get over time, it will thin out, but I don't think that's gonna be a concern today or tomorrow, so really good trade. I'm gonna put this on our watch list to begin. Now with that said though, for Grant, for Brian, for Michael, for all of us here otherwise that may have been with us over the last year or longer, but you know, allow me to ask, what's my gripe with all these crypto stocks at this very time of the day, historically speaking? Historically speaking, and we've had proven success with this in terms of, you know, this thought, you know, what happens with these crypto stocks typically going into the close, even as good as Mara looks right now. Brian says they never keep going. Yeah, just a tease, you know, to have a stock at the highs of the day for a long or at the lows of the day for a short, you know, it's exactly where you'd wanna see it, right? It's perfect, almost too perfect. And it keeps you hoping for this type of push where it makes another dollar move up higher, makes that big giant even more volatile run. I mean, hey, granted, if you are looking for 15 cents and it grinds up and you get it, that's a huge success. But at this time of the day, going into the close, you are expecting the volatility to pick up, especially for a stock that is traditionally near the highs. So with that said, Mara has been more of a tease in that regard here for the afternoons. Made a great pop earlier. We'll cover this trade likely in our Traders Talk workshop for tomorrow for Brian, Brad and all of us there now. Just shoot me a quick email if you have any questions for tomorrow's edition of Traders Talk, any trade, send me over your trading journal. But otherwise, I'm sure we'll cover Mara here at some point. We'll give it a shot here. We'll put it on our list. It's hard to not put this on our list with how it looks. You know, I always have said, at some point in time, I'll be wrong and I'll have egg in my face and all these crypto Bitcoin mining affiliates will rip into the close higher. I'll be happy to see it.  So it's hard for us to not put this on our list either. It's pretty expensive, but otherwise, if you don't fancy the more expensive stocks, then just trade Mara then. Riot making the same exact move. I feel like Mara and Riot are basically the same price. Mara traditionally has been the more volatile of the two. And again, I say volatile in a good way right now. So you know what? I'm not as particular about Riot of the two. I'll put Mara on our list. I'll put Coinbase on our list for those that fancy more expensive stock. With that, I'm sure we'll find a couple more stocks that are moving upward with the S&P or the markets alike. I'm sure a couple of other crypto miners out there. I won stock. I did all right on the Hive trade, but that was like kind of watching grass grow. It was a good trade, but kind of slow. So let's go from top to bottom. Let's see what we can get otherwise. We have two good stocks so far. I always have trouble with this price column, don't I? There we go. Gotta weed out like the ones that are too cheap, the ones that are too expensive. I'll tell you what though. The price column does not weed out a buyout. It's a buyout. So PRVB we're gonna pass on. This is a really good setup. If it could break over three. EUDA, we ended up trading this from Friday last week. This is the one that my dyslexia tripped me over. EUDA, trying to break back over three or rebrake. So you know I'm very particular about a rebrake here. And we'll see if it could rip coming up soon. EUDA, yeah. Got a bit of an iceberg right off the high of the day. Should it break three here coming up? You got an iceberg right off of 320 for about 13, 14,000. So be on the lookout right now for this EUDA. Let's actually go and just zoom in here for a moment. Let's see the reaction right now. This is a very important moment right now live. So let's see what we can get here. Nice pop so far, scarce liquidity on the bid. Looks a little intimidating in that regard. But as long as it could hold over three, if not hold, then rip now, then you're in the driver's seat. You're expecting a big move shortly after. So it has to rip here. Or at a bare minimum just hold over three. That's not a hold over three. That's not looking good. You wanted to see a good reaction right out the gate. So even with this move here, let's be careful. Now 5,000 shares on the ask again at three. So we'll come back to this. It's still on our list. But if it ends up completely like crapping the bed, falling right off the bed here at this point, then we'll scrap it. But let's see what we can get here coming up otherwise. CIFR, how about this? Nice move on this one. I didn't really look at this until right now. Good tight spread, nice order book, contrary to the EUDA.  The only part where I'm a little reluctant is that I've never really traded the stock before. So is it like an IPO, or is this just something that never trades a lot of volume? Yeah, from 21 IPO dropped off all the way down. I see like 50 cents basically has pumped up a little bit since. I know it could be a short squeeze type of play, but yeah, I mean, for right now, looks good, one minute chart checks out well. Good order book here, that checks out. All right, we'll keep it going. This did not check out so well. So the CMND trade, I mean pre-market, it looked like a dud. And after the open, it did pop up a little bit, popped up pretty nicely actually. I personally didn't partake on this because I thought it was going to be a bit more choppy. I say that in particular off the 4.75 level. It did push up 25 cents from there. It was takeable, but not a whole lot happened from that point. So all right, this doesn't really prove me right at all just yet. We have about 75 more minutes before the end of the day here. So there's plenty of time to see Mara prove me wrong and make that illustrious run up higher, but be careful if it makes lower highs. That's all I'm saying. Hut, you can see kind of making a lower high. That's a Bitcoin mining related stock. BTF, I think that's an ETF of sorts. BITO, I think is also an ETF. Interesting that they approve some ETFs, but they don't approve others for Bitcoin, right? I think that there was one over the weekend that got rejected again. I mean, the grayscale ones, I think, been talked about for a little while. This is a different one here. Bitcoin, ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF. I know I was looking at this early in pre-market, but it was flat. I mean, after the open, it ran nice. So I'll put more focus on this perhaps tomorrow morning. If Mara ends up running up higher and Bitcoin does alike, then I'm certain, obviously that BITO here, this ETF, will do the same, but I want to see it prove a little bit more of itself to me here. Today, tomorrow, that means BKKT backed. I think this is a Bitcoin wallet related stock. Just pop and drop. So that's what happens when the volume peaks and then dies off very sharply after. Ooh, Redfin, nice move up on RDFN here. We've seen the stock in the past, like from the beginning of this year, ended up making a nice little move up, but today ended up actually just breaking new high a moment ago and pulling back a slight bit. But I'll put this on our main list for right now, RDFN. Good order book. We've traded the stock in the past. You'd want to see it really begin to blast up higher towards eight again soon because it looks like it just topped off at 801, first test of the level of false breakout. Not a surprise there at all. That's like, honestly, between you and I, that's like my easiest call out of the day. The more and more a stock pushes up, you got to expect the false breakout off a major level, that being off a whole number there at eight. But is that the end of the show? If it is, then there's a lot better opportunity. So let's make sure this can sustain higher lows, moving back up to that eight level here pretty soon. Gold miners out there, not just the Bitcoin miners, but you got the gold miners out there, Jnug, NUGT, Michael Saylor, I guess for once pretty happy right now with a little up move here on crypto and Bitcoin altogether. He's taken a beating over the last year though. His company's in bad shape.  The more crypto and Bitcoin keeps following this guy in his company, MicroStrategy. Gonna have to default, I believe. All right, we keep it going. ENVX, not much happening there. TWOU, same to be said. KPTI, just a little slow, but I guess it has been trying to go back up a little bit there. I mean, I'll put that on my side list for right now. All right, so there could be more that's up percentage wise, folks. If there is, definitely type it in the chat board. Let me know early. That goes for all of us on social media as well, Facebook Live, the works, but let me just hop over to our loser side right now. Got all these bank stocks obviously down huge today.  FRC, you could obviously see ended up doubling up in price from 20 to basically 40 here. We had the WAL trade, which was getting destroyed in pre-market here, leading into the open. I was not expecting this to hit all-time lows and break all-time lows as early as it did. I didn't even think that was gonna be as much of a possibility today, but it ended up making a pretty strong dead cat bounce afterwards though. It broke below like eight and change, then spiked right back up. I mean, all these did make the same move. PACW ended up bouncing right around 10 o'clock, 10, 15. You know, kinda geared towards that famed reversal time that we always talk about. There's definitely a couple more that I'm forgetting just off the top here. Zion, that's another one that I just thought of right now. We had Key Bank, I slipped the Fausto earlier. Now all these ended up making their moves already today on the way down in pre-market, on the way back up. After, you know, are they worth watching for tomorrow? You betcha. Maybe they're worth watching later today, but you shouldn't like the word maybe. I don't like the word maybe. We need to be more definitive with what we're gonna be following. The crypto stocks look the best. EUDA still looking pretty interesting. Should it break over three again? You know, there's plenty of other stocks out there that look better right now is what I'm saying. So, you know, keep it on your list for tomorrow. FHN, another one, I'm sure we'll find out. A handful more of these, if anything.  I mean, yeah, it's all the bank stocks, everything else kind of low volume, hard to borrow, or like Tupperware, just too slow. All right, so Chris says ANGI, slow but steady. Facts, he did not lie there. With that said, I mean, you don't want to be following a stock like that's like watching the grass grow. Let me go back to the hive trade. Hive, you know, I was on this because I missed Mara earlier. I was on a call with one of our students and we ended up missing Mara. And I said, all right, well, if Mara goes, I'm sure the other crypto stocks will go. And at that time I ran into Hive and it was at a historical level. It popped above it by a penny. I jumped in and moved up. But, you know, I wasn't necessarily looking to be at my desk for an hour and a half to make that trade. I was hoping for that to be a faster move. So, you know, it comes down to what you personally are looking to do with your next hour and 15 minutes, right? So, you know, we gotta find something moving a little bit faster, but not a bad shot from Chris. If we can't find much else that looks good, that is totally okay by me because that means we did our job. BBIO at the highs, but slow. I'm sorry, that was, this is BBIO getting my stocks mixed up here. I'm going across my Benzinga Pro screener section here, scanner section, rather. DMNR, you could say the same there, Chris, right? You know, slow moving, having a nice day so far. BHVN, little illiquid there. Not really a fan of the order book. It looks like it's making a double top, which could be interesting, but I'll tell you what folks, I think that we pretty much cleaned up here. We pretty much hit upon them all right now. You know, if there is anything that makes a big pop, you know, I'm sure that Rich will call it out in the next 15 or so minutes as he jumps on the mic, but for right now, I'd start off on these five.  I put that on our list. This actually looks pretty good, trading a little bit more volume per minute, a little bit sharper compared to some of the others that we have on our side list right now. And if Redfin can make a higher low and move back up, that seems to be pretty interesting still. All right, so start with these for right now folks, and then again, Rich will be on the mic at three o'clock, perhaps at that point, you know, there could be something making a better move, but I would start and stick with this list, it will give you the best opportunity to find a runner here going into the close. For all of a sudden, social media, Facebook Live, LinkedIn, Twitter, YouTube, if you have any other questions, feel free to shoot me a quick email. I always like to post my email here at the end of these streams. Josh at ctutrading.com. If you're interested in joining our workshop tomorrow, our exclusive Traders Talk workshop, we're gonna host that normally as we always do inside our live trading room. Go right down to the link on the green banner below, the stream right there to get yourself set up, to get yourself started for Chris, Grant, Louis, and all of us just otherwise, any questions that you have, whether it be for later or for tomorrow's Traders Talk. There you go, one more time. There's my email address, but otherwise folks, best of luck trading here, going into the market close.


the, the, the AirPods, the new third gen AirPods, those seemed, those interest me. I'm, I'm really curious about these because I, I love, I've been impressed with my AirPods Pro once I especially got the right tips for them. But I don't like using them for phone calls nearly as much as I like using my OG AirPods. And the reason is that the AirPods Pro seal in my ear. I don't like using anything that seals in my ear for phone calls, because I'm used to hearing my voice out loud. And yes, if I turn on transparency mode with the AirPods Pro, I get some amount of my voice sort of, you know, pumped back in kind of like what we do with the podcast when we record here. So it's okay. But I, you know, when I'm talking on the phone, I'm used to hearing my voice. And the OG AirPods sit in my ear nicely. They work really well. They're the ones that I leave at my desk. But the batteries on those are, you know, dying quite a bit. So I was curious to see these third gen AirPods. And I did order a set of them. I like this. So they don't, we have a, there's a chart that Apple has that I want to pull up to, to make sure I'm doing all this right. But the third gen AirPods add spatial audio, which I, which I think is great. They do not have noise cancellation or transparency mode, nor could they, because they don't seal in your ear. So it would be super difficult to, you know, try and mitigate for external sounds when you're not sealing them out with, with hardware, essentially, right? So, so bear that in mind. That's, I would think that's probably the biggest difference for most people between AirPods third gen and AirPods Pro is that, you know, you don't get noise cancellation because they don't seal it out. You do get that. But the battery life on them, they say is, you know, six hours, we'll see where that goes. And all of that over, you know, over the course new for sensor control. It is new. Yeah. Okay. So it's like a touch sensor, I guess. Yeah. I mean, the, they've had a touch sensor on the, on the AirPods in the past. This one, I think you're right. Yeah. There's something new about the way that it, it works. Well, the older ones, wasn't it more or less a button? Whereas this is like a pressure sensor, I guess. I guess I, there is no button on the OG AirPods. You just tap it. But yeah, this, this one, this is the, this is the same one that's in the AirPods Pro is now in the, and so essentially they took the AirPods Pro and made a non seal in your ear version of it. And that's what these third gen AirPods are, which is cool. You know, it's fine. Yeah. The, if you, if you look on Apple's AirPods comparison screen, they've, they've got the, the force sensor allows you to, you know, press and hold to do things with, with Siri. And it's a little more, it's got, it can sense more granularly so you can do more things with it just like you can with the AirPods Pro. So I think that's a, like, I'm glad that they're doing that because I know a lot of people did not like the AirPods Pro for exactly the reason that the AirPods Pro can be the AirPods Pro because they seal in your ear and all that good stuff. So yeah. Yeah. I know. It's interesting. So hopefully that we had, we actually had that question in the chat room as we were setting up the show from Barry. So hopefully that, hopefully that answers your question, Barry.


$10,000 a month passive continuity income beginner's guide. Hey, would you like to earn 10 grand a month? I mean, like when you're at the beach, when you're hanging out with your friends, when you're with your family out to dinner, even on vacation? Well, in this video, I'm gonna show you exactly how I do that so that you can earn at least $10,000 a month and we're starting right now. First off, welcome to my channel. Hey, JR Fisher here, I appreciate you coming. And if you're new to the channel, do me a favor and subscribe. There's a big subscribe button down there. I would appreciate it so much if you hit it. And also there's a bell, little bell there. You gotta ring that bell. What that bell does is it turns on notifications and you wanna set it to get all notifications so that every time I do a video, every time I go live, it will actually notify you, you become part of the Fisher family, the VIP group that finds out about these videos before anybody else. And I also wanna remind you, I have a course, it's a $97 course, but you can get it absolutely free. There's a link down in the description. All you have to do is click that link and learn no credit card required. Now, have you been trying to earn money online? Have you heard about this continuity thing? Put your comments below if you've been having problems or if you've had some successes. Any questions you have, I'd love to hear them. You can stick them in the comments section below. Okay, so first off, let's define what passive income is and what it isn't. So passive income is income that requires little to no effort to earn and maintain. Now, let's face it, there's really no such thing as passive income.   But it's a lot closer to passive income. I mean, you can say, well, if I've got stocks, that's passive. It kinda is, but you gotta kinda watch your stocks. You gotta know when to buy, when to sell those stocks. So what passive income is, is it allows you to do a little bit of work and set things up so that you have an income and you don't have to work all the time. So that's basically what we're gonna focus in on here. Now, in this video, I wanna show you how I make money every single month and it's pretty much passive. I've done some work, I've set things up and then the money just comes in on a daily basis. Now, I've been selling online since 2009. I've sold millions of dollars of both digital and physical products, but my passive income comes from my digital products. Things that I've worked and set up and every day they just earn me money. The focus of this video is on digital courses. Digital courses are awesome. I wish I had known about them years ago because I have these digital courses out there now and every day I wake up, I look at my phone, I look at my computer and I've got money coming in and that's what I wanna talk to you about. Now, the cool thing is, if you use some of the sites I'm gonna tell you about, you don't even need a merchant account. Now, I do have a merchant account and I run a lot of my courses through my website, through my Cartra account, which I'll talk to you about and also through other websites. So I have one several different platforms and I would suggest you do the same thing, but you don't have to in the beginning. You don't have to put an investment out to do any of that.  There's the simple sale method. Simple sale method means I have a course out there, let's say it's $997. People pay me $997 and they get access to the course. The other method is the continuity method. That's number two. Continuity method, I really like a lot. You know, I thought initially I just wanted to sell a course and make $1,000 or $500. The thing is that's a one-time payment and though it's a lot of money, a lot of times the continuity can come out to be even more money. Okay, so let's go to a couple of these sites right now where you can put your course and it doesn't cost you anything to put it there. First thing I wanna do is I wanna go over to ClickBank, so let's go over to ClickBank. Okay, so I'm over at ClickBank right now. When you get to the homepage, this is what it looks like.  So across the top here, I'm gonna go to Shop. Just click on Shop right here. And you can actually search products here. I'm just gonna scroll through here. We've got Arts and Entertainment as seen on TV, e-business and e-marketing. So let's look at e-business and e-marketing. That would be the category that I would have my courses in. Here are featured products right here. They're sub-categories. Now they've just redone their website and it looks a whole lot better than what it used to be. Okay, so what I've done is I've logged into my account here and I wanna go over to Marketplace. And I just wanna look at some of the courses that are in here, okay? And there's a ton of courses in here. And we'll go down to e-business and e-marketing. And you can see all these categories that are right here. So let's go to, what do we want? Email marketing. Now what people do is they actually create courses. They put them in the Clickbank Marketplace and they're sold when people come to Clickbank. But that's not the cool way it's sold. The cool way it's sold is there are affiliate marketers out there and they have a list of people. That list of people is interested in a particular subject. They go to Clickbank, they find a course and they can sell your course to their list. They can run ads to your course and you just pay them a commission. Now the cool thing about this is let's say you've got a $997 course. What the heck?  And once you've already done a course, it's just free money, bottom line. It's simple money just coming in to you every single day and that's pretty cool. Now, if we look through here a little bit more, I'm gonna look at, there's blast for traffic. What you can do right here is you can sort all of these here and I'm gonna sort them by gravity. Now what gravity means is that's the number of affiliates that are selling that course a month. Now, it doesn't mean the number of courses that are sold. So one affiliate could sell that course a thousand times. But it does tell you how many affiliates are selling that course. So let's look at this one right here. Perpetual Income 365 and if we zoom in here, it looks like the gravity is 125.83. So there's 125.83 affiliates selling that course every single month at an average sale of $82.  And what that means is it's some type of continuity where people are paying every single month. And when they pay every month, you get paid every month as long as they've got it set up this way. And if you look at this one here, it says make up to $338.50 per sale with recurring monthly commissions. So they are paying that recurring. Perpetual Income 365 is created for newbies to set up their affiliate marketing system to run in minutes created by a seven-finger affiliate in the biz-op space. So if you wanna know more about this particular offer, you can click here. And most good offers are gonna have an affiliate page. And here's the affiliate page here. It tells you all about it. What is it? Give us a decent try and let us make money for you. High converting funnel. They show that they're a platinum member right here, promoter offers. They have their plaque right here. There's my plaque right there. So I've got one of those too, but they're using that to promote stuff. So you can see right here all their offers and they've got some videos down here. Now you can do this on ClickBank with any offer you find. So it's pretty cool. You can do a course at ClickBank and put your course there and have affiliates sell it. Now I will tell you, you wanna make it as easy as possible for them to sell it. Provide them with emails to send out to their list. Provide them with ads that you do up. Provide them with artwork. Provide them support. Make sure you answer all their questions. But you can actually do a course and put it on ClickBank. And I woke up this morning and I had income. It was cool. It was really cool. I had income this morning and I hadn't done anything. I just looked at my phone and I'm like, wow, I just made some money. So once you get these set up there, you can have this reoccurring income and to get to 10 grand a month is not that hard if you think about it. You know, if you're selling a course and it's a $997 course, we'll round it to $1,000, okay? And you're paying out 50% commission. You're getting 500 bucks every time it sells.  Now, you can also do this through continuity. And I want you to think about this continuity thing for a second, because it's pretty cool. Even though you're gonna charge a whole lot less, sometimes you can actually make more. Let's say for example, you have somebody paying you $27 a month. Now $27 doesn't sound like a lot of money, but if they pay you a month after month, it actually is. You know, if you sell 20 of these courses a month, that's $540 right there. But keep in mind, this is $540 every single month. And if every single month you sell 20 more and 20 more and 20 more, that starts to stack up. And before you know it, you've made a whole lot of money on courses. Now the cool thing about digital courses is that you do the coursework. You make the course one time and you can sell it for years to come. Now you should go in and update it if things change, but bottom line is, once you've made that course and it's setting out there, it's like an asset. It's like a piece of real estate out there that pays you every month, but you don't have a renter to deal with, which is really, really cool. Now I automate all my courses inside of Cartra. I highly recommend Cartra. I'll put a link in the description below where you can get Cartra. You can watch a video there. You can see how it works. The link actually will let you try it out for $1 for a trial for one buck. So that's pretty cheap. So basically, when you set up these continuity courses, you can make a lot of money or you can do single sale courses too. But I much prefer the continuity. I really do. I have them both out there and I'm still weighing out which one's best for me. But think about it this way. Not only can you make money on this course, this $27 a month course and this $997 course, but what if you had two courses? What if you had three courses? What if you had four courses? I think right now I've got around five or six different offers out there between courses and monthly payments and inner circles and different things like that. And they all can bring me money every single month. So it's really simple to do. You're gonna have to put in some work at the beginning. I will tell you that, but once you put in the work, you've got this piece of real estate. You've got this thing out there that can generate money every single month for you. I highly recommend you doing courses. I wish I'd done it sooner. It's just a great way to make money online. I highly recommend it. Now, if you have any questions about this, if you have any concerns, you want a little bit more in-depth training on this, put comments below there, ask me whatever questions you want. I'll be happy to answer them for you. Now keep in mind, I also told you I have a $97 course. It is absolutely free. All you have to do is click the link in the description below. You can go ahead and click it. You can click the link and learn no credit card required. If you haven't done so, make sure you subscribe. There's a big subscribe button down there. Hit that subscribe button and the bell turn on all notifications, right? So that you can become part of the Fisher family, the VIP group that gets notified every single time I do one of these videos.

Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE, covering Veritas Vision 2017, brought to you by Veritas. Welcome back to Las Vegas, everybody. This is the wrap for Veritas 2017. This is theCUBE, the leader in live tech coverage. I'm Dave Vellante with Stu Miniman and Stu, two days. We're witnessing the evolution, transformation of Veritas. Veritas used to be sort of the gold standard for what wasn't known at the time as a software defined, but just software function to deliver storage capabilities, no hardware agenda. And now you're seeing investment under the leadership of new management, some innovation, a cycle that's quite rapid. It's hard to tell how much of that is really taking shape in the customer base. Seems like the channel partners are picking up on it. Customers are still sort of trying to figure out how to move beyond sort of their existing legacy situation. It's like Keith Townsend says, the vendor community tends to move at the speed of CIO. It's a great quote. But overall, I think very good show. Some surprises here in terms of specifically the breadth of the Veritas portfolio, not just a backup company, really focused on data management, focused on information management, which obviously is relevant in the digital economy. What were your takeaways? Yeah, so Dave, the big strategy is that the 360 data management. And I think one of the things we teased out in here is, first of all, nobody thinks that cloud is simple, right? Multi-cloud, where customers are, and when you dig into it, and what Veritas has learned in the last year, is that there's a lot of work to be done. Where are their deeper integrations that they need to have? There's different requirements from the different partners here. See, Microsoft, the top-level sponsor, Razinovich up on stage, giving kind of his usual hybrid cloud with a lot of open source pitch there. But seems a good fit from the customers and partners that we talked to here to say, Microsoft aligns well with what Veritas is doing. Amazon, big player here. A lot of integration's happening behind the scenes to make sure that Veritas can work there. And then you follow Google, of course. Big focus around data. Good to see where Veritas is going. We had a nice conversation with Google. Google seems very open on a lot of these. Not as much focus on some of the functionality that Veritas has, so it's a good natural fit. And then IBM and Oracle kind of rounding out kind of the big players here. So the thing I've come in, I think every show I've gone to this year, Dave, is where do companies that've been around for more than a couple of years fit in this multi-cloud world? And absolutely, that's where the puck's going, as Bill Coleman said, that's where they're betting the company and putting it forward. And we wondered coming in, would it be like, ah, yeah, this is a net backup and Veritas Foundation suite with a new coat of paint on it? And no, I mean, they've brought in a lot of new management team. Sure, there's engineers here with a lot of expertise and experience to build on, to know how to do this. But I was pretty impressed with what I saw this week, Dave. So no hardware agenda is evolving to no cloud agenda. That's one of the things we learned here is that, and we had a good discussion, got a little bit awkward at times, but good discussion about why Veritas relative to the other players here. And the answer we got back, and what we had to tease it out a little bit, was essentially the upstart guys, the rubrics, the cohesities, to a certain extent, Zerto. I think they try to put Veeam in that category, come back to Veeam, because it's kind of interesting. Maybe not big enough to deliver on that multi-cloud vision. And they're really not even trying, cohesiating rubric, I don't know. They've added a lot of clouds, recently actually, rubric's been doing it for a while, cohesity, definitely seen there. They understand that cloud, but I think what, maybe I'd say they tend to start from an on-premises piece, as opposed to you say, this Veritas strategy is, it doesn't matter. And what many of the players write, where is there natural gravity, is it on-premises, or is it in the public cloud? And Nutanix, they partner with Google, they're doing the cloud, but absolutely, most of their revenue is, you know, it's just all in there. So the upstarts, I think, you know, I kind of buy the Veritas argument that there maybe doesn't have the gravitas and the heft to attack that multi-cloud, other than pick at it and grow, and they'll do hundreds of millions of dollars in revenue, and maybe get to a billion and have a great exit. I think that'll happen. So that was that, and then the other guys, the big guys, HPE, Dell, EMC, IBM, they certainly have the capabilities to do that. But is it going to be the main focus of those companies? HPE maybe, we'll see. HPE and Veeam are an interesting partnership. You know, my information suggests that Veeam is driving many tens of millions of dollars through Hewlett Packard Enterprise, now that the micro-focused deal has been done, and they've got rid of data protector. IBM, they're kind of reinvigorating the storage business. Data protection is part of that. Dell EMC is, I think, challenged to invest. They can't invest in as much as they used to, certainly not in acquisitions. The acquisition pipeline has basically dried up. I mean, Dave, Dave, look at, you know, Datamain was a great acquisition by EMC at the time, now under Dell EMC. I mean, you're probably closer to it than me. You know, I don't hear a strong cloud message coming out of that group when we talk about backup and the like. You know, Dell corporate, of course they've got Microsoft partnerships, VMware has Amazon partnerships, but it very much has tied to, you know, appliances or servers at the main piece. It's not a software message, which is, you know, we're very close. Well, so you look at Dell EMC's acquisitions recently. Icelon, okay, a couple billion, two and a half billion, I think. Datadomain, two and a half billion. DSSD, a billion, which really hasn't turned it to much at this point in time anyway. Extreme IO, not sure what they paid, but you know, you're hearing ebbs and flows on that. So, but that, my point is that is how under Joe Tucci EMC innovated. They would incrementally add on to their existing platforms. You were there, you saw it. And then they would invest in what Joe Tucci used to call tuck-in acquisitions. And all of that was well and good, and they were able to sort of keep, not sort of, they were able to keep pace with the industry. That's basically stopped that strategy. We've seen cuts, some layoffs, but still a financial, you know, windfall, I think is coming for Dell. And VMware is a secret sauce there, so we don't have to dig into that too much. But my point is that services is going to be the linchpin for that company in terms of attacking multi-cloud services and VMware. Okay, so now you can. And Pivotal of course too. And Pivotal as well, that's right, great point. Now you come back to Veritas, focused on that strategy of information management. Investing apparently in R&D. Seemingly patient capital with Carlisle. So I like to, you know me, I like to unpack the numbers from what I can tell my sources and going to do some more digging on this, but when Veritas was acquired by Carlisle, it was about a $2.3 billion company, wouldn't surprise me if on an income statement basis, it's actually shrunk, wouldn't surprise me at all. In fact, Bill Coleman kind of hinted to that. And especially if you start looking at ratable, rateable revenue models, maybe bookings could be up. And I've heard numbers as high as 2.6, 2.7 billion, but who knows. I've also heard now that the valuation at the time of the acquisition was 7 billion in change. I've heard numbers as high as 14, 15 billion now, maybe a little inflated, but I think easily over 10. And I think this company has an opportunity to get the 3 billion, get the valuation up to 15, maybe even 20 billion, big win for the private equity investors. And the key to that, I think, is going to be a continuous investment, go to market that aligns to those new areas that they're talking about. And very importantly, the ecosystem. I want to see this thing start exploding. Nice, the big highlights here were the cloud guys. What else would you highlight? You walk around the shows, a lot of smaller partners here really would like to see that ecosystem grow. That's something that we're going to watch. And the audience grow. I think this show is up from last year, next year, I believe, in Las Vegas again, moving to the Cosmopolitan. A little bit better venue, bigger venue. We'll see if they can get up to where the big boys go over time, but overall I'd say pretty good second year for Veritas Vision. Yeah, Dave, you look at the different areas. Veritas has a full suite of software-defined storage. The analogy I've used all the time, storage industry is a knife fight in a dark alley. So you've got some big players out there that all have their software-defined storage messaging out there. Of course, Veritas would say they all have the hardware agenda. There's some truth to that, but Veritas also has to partner with a bunch of these players to get there. So where did they get the reach? How does the channel help them punch above their weight? I mean, the difference is there, two and a half, 2.6 billion dollar run rate company, revenue company, that is private. So they're trusted because they have history. They're not a small startup. Can this innovation and all the new team members come in? And definitely the cloud piece is pretty interesting, Dave. We'll be back at re-invent with a cube and Veritas will have a presence there. Amazon, huge ecosystem. Where do they play? Where do they show up? Data, we've said so many times on here, it becomes repetitive. Data is the new oil and customers need to take advantage of them. Can Veritas's message get them at the table and in a conversation where so much it's about infrastructure? And I love the message here at the show. It's not infrastructure technology, it's information technology and we want to put a highlight on that. So like the message, like where it's going, here are the customers, but can they get at the table when there's so many different, there's the startups, there's the big players, everybody pulling at where the customers are. And GDPR was an interesting angle because it was the most crisp conversation I've heard on GDPR. I know you've been talking about it at least the last six months on some cube interviews. I've done a number of interviews but it really crystallized for me this week at the show. I'm glad you mentioned that because I've done a couple of shows where GDPR has come up and I was like, okay, yeah, we get it, it's coming, it's nasty. How are you going to help me again? And I think Veritas did a really good job this week of saying, look, we are here to help. We're going to start with discovery and they sort of laid out the journey and I think they made a good case for their portfolio aligning well with solving that problem. So this could be a nice little kicker there. One of the things I wanted to sort of riff on a little bit was the TAM and the data protection space. You know, it reminds me when ServiceNow went public, I know there was a story about a Gartner analyst who was very negative on it saying the help desk is a dead business and then Frank Slutman did a masterful job of expanding the TAM, explaining that TAM, guiding the company to a massive opportunity. And I see a similar dynamic here. In the one hand, I say, wow, a lot of companies in this data protection space, even though it's exploding, a lot of VC money coming in, you're seeing new entrants like Datrium now get in the space, even though they're not just back up, they're not, that's not their primary, but I mean, you certainly saw SimpliVity was kind of their specialty, but guys like Datos, IO and some of these new guys coming in that we talked about, Rubrik, et cetera, there's a lot of players here is the market big enough to support those. Part of me says, I don't know, but then I think back to that ServiceNow example, I think the TAM is going to explode because it's not about backup and it's not even just about data protection. It is about information management. I think Veritas got that right and so what I like about their chances is they're big, they got a big install base and I think their vision is right and they don't have that cloud agenda. They're pure software company, even though they do sell some appliances sometimes and they got what seemingly is good management. I think I'd like to see them attract even more management as they grow and as they start executing this and as I say, the ecosystem has got to grow. Yeah, so Dave, IT has to deal with information governance. That's the defense they need to play. There's going to be money thrown at that. Some of the conversations we had this week, IT operations becomes one of those tailwinds that should lift companies like Veritas to be able to have further discussion and grow those budgets to be able to be much more important piece. All right, good, Stu, thank you. Good working with you again. It's been a long few weeks here but we're at it again next week. The Cube is at Big Data NYC which is done in conjunction with Strata in New York City. We've got a big party on Wednesday night. Actually, we got a presentation. Peter Burris, Neil Raden, Jim Cabilis and we got a panel talking about software eating the edge. That's on Wednesday at 37 pillars. Tweet me at at D-Velante if you don't have an invitation. I'll get you one although I heard there was a wait list last week but we'll get you in, don't worry. And then we're also at Splunk next week. I'm going to be at .conf in DC. Very interesting company. We've done .conf since I think 2011 was the first year we did .conf. And I'll be keeping a big eye on Microsoft Ignite next week while we don't have the Cube there. Obviously, pretty important things like Azure Stack, expected to roll out and got so many shows, Dave. So theCUBE, we love digital content, creating content, sharing with you, our community. Follow at theCUBE, that handle for theCUBE Gems. You'll see a bunch of videos. Go to theCUBE.net. That's where we host all the videos from all of our shows. And then SiliconANGLE.com is where we write up our news and analysis of these events and news of the day. And of course wikibon.com is our research site. A lot of really good, deep work going on there. So thanks for watching everybody. This is Dave Vellante with Stu Miniman. We're out from Veritas Vision 2017. We'll see you next time.


Hi friends. Welcome back to my channel and a very special welcome if you're new here. My name is Jen. I'm a certified weight loss and nutrition coach and I'm on WW personal points. I have a pretty fun, very different video for you today. About two weeks ago, I posted over on my Instagram. If you don't follow me there, definitely follow me on Instagram to keep up with me on a more day-to-day basis. I did post a poll in my stories asking if you would be interested in an affordable spring end of winter Walmart haul and try-on and it was a renounding yes. I think 96 or 7% of the people responded and said that yes, yes, yes, we would love to see an affordable Walmart try-on haul for spring. So today that is what we are doing. You are not going to believe the incredible deals that I found at Walmart.   Make sure you're subscribed and your bell notification is turned on so you never miss a single video. I do upload five days a week and I want to start incorporating a little bit more lifestyle here on my channel. So make sure your bell notification is turned on so you never miss a single video. Check out that description box down below for nutrition coaching where I do offer personalized to you macros and calories as well as one-on-one coaching if you would like to chat with me directly. Links, discounts to my favorite things and my Facebook group are also down in that description box. So let's jump into this incredibly affordable Walmart try-on and spring haul. If you follow me, you know that I am moving to Arizona. And in fact, when you are seeing this video, we have just arrived this week to our new home in Saharita, Arizona. So stay tuned for lots and lots of home videos coming your way as well. And I thought that what better time to go to Walmart, peek around, see what they have on clearance that would serve me in the warmer climate of Arizona. And wait until you see what I found. We are talking so many cute items, all of which were on clearance for anywhere from $2 to $5 with the exception of one graphic tee that I just had to have at regular price, but it was less than $10. So I am so excited to share all of these clothes with you. I'm going to try them on, show you what they look like. We'll talk a little bit about the quality of them. I'll go over the price and at the end, I'll tell you how much I spent on all of these pieces. Since the majority of these are on clearance, I'm unable to link them for you. I will see if I can find the graphic tee that I purchased since it was full price and link that down in the description box for you. So here's my huge stack of new clothes. First, let's start with the graphic tee. This is the one item I picked up at full price. I had to have it. It says Grand Canyon, Arizona. So of course, I had to pick this up since I am moving to Arizona. This is from the brand Time and True, and this is an extra large Junior. So this is a size 16 to 18 in Juniors. This fit fantastic. It's very soft and the quality of this t-shirt is actually really, really good. What I appreciated about this is the length. The length was perfect that you could wear it with leggings and it covers up those problem areas, our bellies, our booties. So I really like this. It's very comfortable and actually I wore this shirt on my way down to Arizona just to celebrate my move there. So they did have a few other graphic tees that were super cute. This graphic tee was $9.98. Now, all of the other pieces that I picked up were on clearance. Starting with these pants. Now, I know what you're thinking. They're a little out there.  And at first, I was like, hmm, those are interesting. I don't know that I would ever wear those out in public, but then I saw the price of these. These pants were on clearance for $2. I thought for $2, I could at least wear these around the house. These are a workout type of material, more of a cotton material. They do have a thicker waistband. They are also a flare laid bottom. So again, I wouldn't necessarily wear these out in public, but these would be great to lounge around the house in or wear as pajamas and you can't beat it for only $2. These are also from the junior section. Who am I being able to wear clothes from the junior section? These are an extra large 15 to 17 in juniors. And these fit me really, really well. And actually, they're really comfortable despite how not very cute they are. Since I'm moving to a warmer climate and I don't really own any shorts, literally any shorts other than pajama shorts. I saw these really cute denim shorts. And these are a little bit longer, more like brew Muda style. I love that it has the raw hem on the bottom. They have a little bit of stretch to them, not a lot. These were on clearance for $5. They are the brand No Boundaries and these are a size 36, which I believe is a 16. This is very exciting because when I started my weight loss journey, I was between a 24 and a 26. I could sometimes get away with a size 22. And the fact that a size 16 short in the misses section actually fit me. And I had room to spare in the waist. I do have some really cute pockets on the back. And again, I just love that raw hem. And you can't beat jean shorts for $5. I mentioned that I pretty much live in pajamas. I thrive in my pajamas. And I was at I was walking through the pajama section actually moving over to the shoes to see if I could find any cute sandals or flip flops, which I couldn't. But I saw this nightgown and it says a day without coffee is like just kidding. I have no idea. $2 $2 for this. This was in the plus size section. This is actually a size two to three X. Normally, it was $7. I got it for $2. It's huge on me. It's huge on me, but it's pajamas. And what I liked about it is the length. So it was very long on me and I'm tall. I'm five eight. So I figured by going up several sizes, it being loose and baggy didn't really matter because I'm just wearing it to bed or around the house. It helped make the length a little bit more my style. So I thought I'd grab it for $2 even though it's a little bit big on me. It's very soft, very good quality and very comfortable. I think this shirt is absolutely adorable. I love the olive green color. It has so much detailing that just immediately caught my eye. So it does have this really cute ruffle at the top of the shoulder, which just adds a little bit of distinction. It does have the stretchy cuffed three quarter slave link. But I like this seeming and stitching in the back. It just kind of narrows down your shape and it adds a nice touch to the top. It does button up completely so you could wear it buttoned or unbuttoned. I liked it better with the top button unbuttoned where it showed a little bit more of your chest and it does have a nice collar. This is also from the brand time and true. And this is an extra large in the junior section, which is a 16 to 18. It's flowy. It's comfortable. It's a rayon material and it was the perfect length. Normally $17 and I got this on clearance for $5. Next up was this cute little cropped sweatshirt. Again, who am I? Who am I buying cropped items? I thought this would be perfect to wear to the gym. So over my tank top as I'm walking or driving to the gym and also really comfortable to lounge around the house. You could even wear this out because it's super, super stylish. So again, it is a cropped sweatshirt. It does have the sweatshirt style cuff of the sleeve and the sweatshirt banding at the bottom. But what makes this so cute is the back. So it does have the little piece of material at the neck. It has open V. And then it has this cute knot here and the opening. I thought it was super cute and I thought the color was really fun for spring. This is from the brand No Boundaries. This was also in the junior section. It is a size extra large 15 to 17. And if you're not familiar with junior sizing, an extra large in juniors is like a large in women's or in misses. This is normally 1498 and I got it on clearance for $5. They had several colors, but I just loved this purple color. Another crop top. Your girl bought a second crop top. This is super, super cute. It does have buttons down the front. There are faux buttons and then you can see that ruching. That also gives you a really nice shape. It does have a cute collar at the top and it is a long sleeved shirt. The great thing about this is it's a really, really soft, light material. So it will be perfect in Arizona. Even though it's long sleeve, it'll be great for those cooler days. And I thought this would be really cute with a pair of jeans or even those jean shorts that I picked up. Even though it's a crop top, you could wear a cami or a tank top underneath if you're not comfortable. But I just thought the style was really cute and black is my favorite color for clothes. This also was in the junior section. This is an extra large 15 to 17. The normal price was $10.98 and I got it for $5. Here's another super cute black top that I fell in love with. This is so incredibly soft. It is more of a sweater material, but it's a very light sweater material. I mean, I can see through it. That's how light an area of a material it is. It does have a little bit of a scooped neck. I love the bell sleeved bottom. So you can see that it does have that design and texture like a sweater, but it is a little bit more of a bell sleeved and it is long sleeved. The length is great. Again, you could wear this with jeans or leggings and it just fit really well and it's really soft and comfortable. This is also the brand No Boundaries. This was from the junior section, but this is a size large, which is like a medium in misses and this fit me perfectly. Junior size 11 to 13. Normally $9 on clearance for $3. If they would have had other colors of this, I absolutely would have picked it up, but I was only able to find black. They did have a heather gray, but it was only in a size small, but I'm really excited about this. It is just so soft. And last but not least, I had to get this. I just think this is so cute and I love the color. It is a brown color with some gold stripes. My favorite is this cute little ruffled detail on the shoulders and it actually goes around the back as well. So you can see the ruffled detail in the front and the ruffled detail in the back. It is long-sleeved, but again, it's a very, very lightweight material. I just really, really like the color of this. It's a very unique and I think these gold stripes and the ruffles just really add a nice touch to it. This is the brand Terra Sky and this is in a 1X. So this was in the women's section or the misses section, which this says is a size 16 to 18. This was the smallest size that they had. I would have went down the size if they had a smaller one, but this fit really well and it did add a nice flowiness to the shirt and a good length, again, to wear with jeans or leggings. This is normally a $13 top and I got it on clearance for $5. So I'm really excited about all of my new pieces, my shorts, pajamas, pants and lots of fun new tops. We have a little bit more casual, a little more dressy. I'm really excited about all these pieces. I bought nine items in total and the total price was $41.98. That is incredible for nine pieces of clothing. Honestly, you can spend that much on one piece of clothing, sometimes substantially more. So don't sleep on your Walmart clearance section. They do add items to the clearance section all the time and you can even find pieces for the next season on clearance. So I'm very excited to add all of these to my collection. I did do a huge closet cleanout last week. I'll link that video down below for you and got rid of over half of my clothes. It's time to buy some new clothes that actually complement my new body, my new figure and clothes that actually fit me. That is one of the super exciting things about losing weight.  Don't forget to subscribe and ring your bell. I would love to have you here and I do upload lots and lots of new videos every single week. Don't forget to check out the description box down below for nutrition coaching. I'll link that Arizona graphic tee, all of my favorite things and also come on over, join us on Facebook. We would love to have you. Let me know down in the comments what your favorite clothing piece was that I picked up and I'll see you in my next video. Bye.


Target Market The Target Market is a group of customers within a business's serviceable available market that the business has decided to aim its marketing efforts towards. Target Markets consists of consumers who exhibit similar characteristics such as age, location, income, and lifestyle and are considered most likely to buy a business's product or service. Primary Target Markets are those market segments to which marketing efforts are primarily directed, while secondary markets are smaller or less vital to a product's success. Overview, it is important for a business to identify and select the target market so it can direct its marketing efforts to that group of customers and better satisfy their needs and wants. This enables the business to use its marketing resources more efficiently, resulting in more cost and time-efficient marketing efforts. It allows for better understanding of customers and therefore enables the creation of promotional materials that are more relevant to customer needs. Also, Targeting makes it possible to collect more precise data about customer needs and behaviors and then analyze that information over time in order to refine market strategies effectively. Target Markets are also known as Target Consumers are certain clusters of consumers with similar or the same needs that most businesses target their marketing efforts in order to sell their products and services.


Hi my name is Danny and welcome to Esoteric Moment. Today I am going to show you how I made my Midori Traveler's notebook. So I did a video a while back on how I made this notebook. It's based on the Midori Traveler's notebook which is a leather kind of case for smaller notebooks and it's really useful because you can organize it the way you want. You can put things in take things out as you need to. I use mine as my planner and my journal and notes for community burden stuff. So I'm going to show you how to make your own because it's a lot cheaper than buying it yourself and at the end of the video I'm going to tell you how you can get your own Midori Traveler's notebook because I am doing a giveaway. So for this project you'll need a few things. You'll need a piece of leather. I just get the Tandy Leather sheet that comes like in the same size as a regular piece of paper. You will also need a hammer and a nail. This nail needs to be the same thickness or a little bit more than the elastic cord that you'll use. I also suggest some leather die which is pretty cheap on amazon and comes in a huge quantity. You'll also need some elastic cord. I recommend like two millimeter thick. I have a link in the description of what works best but it doesn't really matter. Scissors and any beads or charms that you want as decoration. To start I laid out a plastic paper bag that I cut in half so that I have a nice workspace and then I took out my eight and a half by 11 sheet of leather. We're gonna start by making the holes for the elastic to go into. So because this is already the size that I want I am just going to fold it. On the inside I'll mark where that fold was. I'm just using a colored pencil. I'm gonna dye it anyway so you won't see the marks. Now we can decide to do one band or two down the middle and what this allows for are the number of notebooks that you can put into it really easily. I like to put in two so I'm going to put one hole on each side of my middle mark at the top and the bottom to run my elastic band through. To make the holes I'm just going to take the nail and pound into my leather. The size with this stuff if you need to or less precise but really the main thing is you want to make sure that you go as close to the edges you can with still leaving a little bit of room so that the notebook fits and that you're as even as possible. To make a strap to go around the middle Midori itself puts a hole in the back of the leather but I don't really like that because of where the elastic is then located it kind of creates a bump. So I put my elastic hole down the middle um on the spine so it's not as noticeable. In the dyeing process I'm using um this lip and dye that you can get in four ounce containers and it even comes with a little brush to work it with so I just shake it up a little and then I'm going to paint it um left to right and then up to down a couple times until I get the color that I want in the elastic cord. So I measure by just loosely holding the string up over the notebook you're going to want to do it twice the length of where your holes are plus a little extra to tie an ounce. Then I also measure us here for the center strap and leave a little for an ounce. Now comes the fun part. We are going to string the elastic through our holes. If our holes are big enough this will be really easy um I like to do it a little bit tighter so that while it's hard to string the notebook lasts a little bit longer. You can also use your nail or an actual like thicker leather needle to string your cord through. So that goes in the first hole and then on the outside part you're going to string it right back through that top part. Do the same thing on this end. String on the inside and we'll loop on the outside. Still want a little bit of give. The thing about this is that if you ever dislike the color you can always replace the string really easily and the leather will stay nice and on the outside it makes a nice little spine appearance with a little accent of color but also not super noticeable. Now we're going to do the center band and this one is a little bit more tricky. So starting from the outside part we're going to thread through one side of the elastic band. For the kids or charms we're going to put those on bearing out and putting in a knot here and then measuring out putting a knot here so that your beads stay in the same place. Because I'm giving this away I'm going to leave it loose so that people can experiment and find what works for them.  So on the inside of your notebook you have two straps to connect notebooks to and the knot from your band in the middle and on the outside you have a little spine edges and a strap to fold your notebook.  To insert your notebooks you're going to take the middle part of your notebook and slide it under the straps here. So with two notebooks and two elastic straps you can easily fit two in and that just keeps it nice and thin and simple. However if you want more notebooks you can put one notebook in the middle like this and then take two separate notebooks and open it so that half of it is out on both notebooks and the two insides are connected and then you put a rubber band around it. This can be a normal rubber band, more elastic cord, whatever you want. So it goes down the center of the notebooks and then they kind of flap together like this like wings and you can slide those underneath the notebook you already have attached. So that is three notebooks per elastic band. So this can fit up to six notebooks which makes it really thick but totally doable. So this notebook is great because you can get different types of paper depending on your preference. So I have some plain craft some lined and some grid graph paper here and these notebooks will go with the giveaway and however you're using your notebook you can take things in and out and rearrange them and organize them however you want. So I think it works really well for journaling or planning and even if you're doing a book of shadow or grimoire I think it's really nice that way because you get the beautiful changes that happen to the leather when you carried around without sacrificing the ability to move and change things and reorganize them. So this is the new notebook shiny leather still brand new and this is what has happened to my leather after using it for you know months and months. It's created this really lovely shiny color to it and there's all of these scuffs and adaptations from where I carry it around and you know it's the elastic has stretched out a little but it's easy to replace if I need to and it just feels great. The inside you know is a little less pretty it doesn't have that shine because I don't touch it all the time and in my notebook I regularly keep anywhere from five to six notebooks in here plus other adept tape other editions like a zipper folder and sticky puppets and things like that. In my giveaway I'll be giving away this notebook that I just made the three notebooks inside of it and then some other goodies. I have a little washi tape sampler here. It also includes kind of some plain simple ones for October and this beautiful gold foil spider web washi tape. I'll also be giving away a crystal bible book. It's the Judy Hall ones it's pretty small but it is really nice with great pictures of all the crystals. I haven't decided which crystals yet but I'm also going to give away a couple crystals to enjoy with the package and this dive-in deck which is kind of an oracle deck encouragement cards. There's a bunch of cards that have different collages and you know encouraging statements that are really fun to draw each day. To win this giveaway you only have to be subscribed and write a comment on this video and then I'll draw a name from a hat in a couple weeks. You can find more details for how to win the giveaway in the description below. If you have any questions on how to make a midori let me know. There are lots of other ways that you could do it. This is just the way that I do it. Thanks for watching and as always may you find peace in the sacred grove. Today I'm doing another book review and that is a very popular book that many druids really love that is the Druidry Handbook by John Michael. This author wrote the book while he was the Archdruid of AODA which is the ancient order of druids in America. This book actually serves as the main textbook for their first course in the order.


TestWiz, selecting and printing a report using TestWiz. I thought I would come to you this afternoon and just share with you the basics of how to select and then print a test for reporting purposes. Some of you may be way beyond this point, but I just thought it'd be nice to show some of the new teachers and maybe people that need to refresh their course in this. So I'm just gonna share with you my screen and walk you through this. It's gonna be pretty basic and a short tutorial.  And if you've never been to this page before, you will not be able to see anything when you click on the dropdown arrow for recently selected test. You'll have to go down here in your menu and find your test that you gave to your students and notice that there's pages one, two and three. You might have more depending on how many tests to be created at your school. So find the test that you want to report on and print.  This screen gives a lot of demographics. It tells you the name of the test when the test was given. Then you have a chance to select the reporting group. You can view student by student and it'll be underneath that profile. You can print all the class reports. You can see how your whole class did. If you are in a school where you have multi-tracks of different grades, then you can click the school one and it'll print all the reports for your 3A math class. You can do your 3B math class or your 3C math class. So you can do that. So I'm just gonna click today for the class. And then you'll see that comes up. You can see the student list. The one I would suggest to going to first is the one that says the 2-1 class list with items. This is gonna give you a list of all of your kids and then it shows you how they did on each question of the selected assessment. And then your teacher type location. This depends on how test was uploaded this for you. You can leave it on current location and it'll give you your teacher name. Or if you know that you are in 1819 and you are the reading teacher, you can put it there. Or maybe it's put 1819 third grade teacher if you only do one class in a smaller class, a smaller school. Then you don't have to do any customizations at this point. Later you can do that. But on here, if you are ready and you just simply wanna do it, you can click on preview the report and I'll bring your report up right there on your screen. If you wanted to do any customizations, you can do it with the parameters right here. Maybe you wanna select that you want cutoff scores of a certain score and above. So that way you just wanna see students how they did on those. Or maybe you want to go over here and do different objective cutoffs, multi-tests. But if the section over here, if it's anything in gray, then it's not able to be selected with this specific test. So if you go click on there and I'm not going to click on there because I am logged in a different school, so I don't wanna share any of their information, but I'll show you just a sample of a test that has nothing to do with us.  You're gonna get to see what report you selected. You're gonna see the name of the test again, the test state that it was given, district school class. If there was a subtest, maybe you had math subtest and you were doing different contentaries in math, then it would show what subtest you were reporting on. And then it also gives you the raw score. So right here across the top, it has all the item numbers listed. And if you would hover and click on these blue hyperlinks, it's gonna take you to what the test question looks like so that way you can compare that to how the students answered. Down the left side of the screen, you have all your students listed, and then there's some symbols going across. So if you look over here, you can see that this student on number one has a plus. A plus means that they got that item correct. Item two, they have another plus. Here we come to a letter. The letter means that they got this test item wrong. So then you go ahead and keep coming across all the way over here. And you can see that this student got 78% correct. And then there's a raw scale score was a 31. And you can look at that for each student going across. If you see a hashtag or the pound sign, that means that that item was skipped. So it means that this student didn't answer that question. Down at the bottom, if you look down here, then you can go and you can see that in item one, there was 100% of the students that got this question correct. Item two, 94% of the students got this item correct. Item three, 100% of the students got this correct. And so forth.  So I just wanted to give you an idea of what you're looking for with this first list with items test report. Okay, we'll come back to our main screen.  So right up here, you're gonna see where it can be printed in a PDF, a Word or Excel document. So if you click on one of these, then you're gonna go up and it's gonna say download your report. It's still a bit different now than this what it says here. So once you select how you want it printed, then you go up the top, you download the report, it's gonna download it too and you can click on the download. Then you can look at that. And then my suggestion would be to save it to your computer and that way you can print it off or have a file with those in it later on. Hey, if you would like to know more specific ways to use test, if you're beyond the basics of it, then you can come back over and go to your homepage and click on sample reports. And then go over here to where you want steps for creating specific reports. And then you can do cutoff reports, comparison reports, historical tracking, demographic special codes and other. So they're just really nice, simple tutorials. So that's where that information is for you. If you again have any questions, make sure that you contact me at the service unit here. My name is Tammy Cheatham. Give me a call, have me come out. I'll surely walk a small group of teachers through things or individual teachers. I'm here to help. Have a good afternoon.


Hi friends, welcome back to my channel and a very special welcome if you're new here. My name is Jen. I'm a certified weight loss and nutrition coach and today we are doing a Dollar Tree haul. I have not one, not two, but three bags of Dollar Tree snacks that we're gonna talk about today. We are going to taste test some of these. I'm going to give you my honest review and these are going to be some great affordable snack options that you can find at your local Dollar Tree. Now I do wanna put out a disclaimer like I always do on Dollar Tree snack haul videos. These items are from the Dollar Tree. A lot of these items are processed foods. Most of these items are not whole real food. Most of these items are more snacky foods. They're affordable. If you're on a budget, these are going to be great options for you to stay within your weight watcher points, stay within your calories and have affordable snack options on hand.  Subscribe if you're not. Turn your bell on because I upload five videos every single week. I actually have an entire Dollar Tree playlist. I will link that down below for you. I will put the points on the screen of all of the snacks. I will tell you the calories and we will taste test a lot of these items as well. So I'm really excited for another huge Dollar Tree snack haul. Down in the description box, I will link nutrition coaching. Highly recommend personalized macros and calories. This is how I have lost and maintained a 140 pound weight loss as well as one-on-one coaching for questions, accountability or to talk with me directly. Links and discounts to my favorite healthy things and come join our Facebook group. We would love to have you are all down in that description box. So let's jump into this huge Dollar Tree snack haul and taste test. So I tried to pick up a little bit of everything at the Dollar Tree. Some more meal related things, some snacky things, healthy options, some items with protein. So I got a little bit of everything. Actually I got a lot of bit of everything. I have quite a few things to share with you. One of the things I really like to pick up from Dollar Tree are my water enhancers or my water flavorings. And they had two new ones at my local Dollar Tree that I was really excited about. So first up is the Jolly Rancher Drink Mix in watermelon. I love watermelon flavored anything. So I was super excited to see this. And then this was interesting too. They have the Starburst Duos. Two flavors in one stick strawberry watermelon. This one has 10 calories per serving. This one has five calories per serving. These are zero points. I actually don't even track the calories in any type of water enhancer or water flavoring because it helps me get in my water. By adding a little bit of flavoring, it helps me drink more water, which is a huge win. So I was excited to see some new flavors. Again, the Jolly Rancher and the Starburst Water Enhancers. This is another thing I've never seen at Dollar Tree. This is the Hormel Pepperoni. Now this is not turkey pepperoni. This is original pepperoni. This is a killer deal for $1.25. There's two servings per package. Each serving is 150 calories. So there's two packets. Each has a serving. I actually like that it is pre-portioned out. That makes it really easy. So again, each packet is 150 calories in one serving of pepperoni. This makes a really great on-the-go protein pack snack and you can't beat it for $1.25. This is another great protein option. I've never seen this flavor before. This is from the brand Brunswick and this is the Ranch Tuna Salad with crackers. Ready to eat meal. It's 100 calories for the tuna and 70 calories for the crackers. The whole pack is 170 calories. This would make a really great on-the-go lunch. Pair this with some fruit, maybe some extra protein. You could have a protein shake or protein bar with this and it would just make a really great on-the-go meal or snack. I love that you get the tuna.  They had multiple flavors but I thought that the ranch sounded really good. I'm going to set this aside for the next time that I take a hike because this would be a great thing to take with you for hiking or for traveling. Speaking of tuna, speaking of protein, they had some new little tuna packets from the brand McCormick. I have never seen the McCormick brand of tuna packets. This is the Wildcott Light Tuna and Dill Tuna Salad. Doesn't that sound amazing? I also love these for on-the-go. I've been known to eat these at the airport and even on the airplane with some crackers for a quick lunch. I love that it's 11 grams of protein for only 70 calories. So amazing, amazing macros. They had quite a few different flavors but I thought that the Dill sounded really, really good. In fact, you could take this and this with you and you'll have some extra protein in the tuna packet to pair with the crackers and the tuna salad in here. So I was excited to see that they actually had some healthy protein packed options. Another lunch option, not necessarily on-the-go but something you could take to work or heat up at home. They had some soups. They have the Campbell's Chicken Classic, Kitchen Classic soup and I picked up the chicken noodle. They also had a bean one and I believe a clam chowder. The entire can is 140 calories. Not bad at all and you're going to get 10 grams of protein. So for a dollar 25, you're getting 10 grams of protein, 140 calories and you have a lunch on the go. In fact, you could actually pair the soup with the little tuna and crackers with a little bit more volume balanced lunch. I'm really loving these healthy options at Dollar Tree. Dollar Tree can get a bad rap thinking that, oh, it's just a bunch of junk and processed foods and sure they have junk and processed foods and snacky foods but they also have healthy options as well. I saw this and I thought, oh my gosh, I have to try this. Look how fun this is. This is the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Synodest Seasoning Blend. It says great for toast, cookies, ice cream and more. One serving is a teaspoon for 15 calories. On the back, it gives you a recipe for churro chips where you do a flour tortilla, butter and sprinkle this on there and throw it in your air fryer for chips. That actually sounds really good. You could use a low carb tortilla. You could put a little bit of butter on there. Some of this cinnamon powder pop it in your air fryer and you would have little crispy low carb churro chips. We may have to make that. It also says you could prepare it in your oven and like I said, 15 calories for a teaspoon is not bad. This also brings me back to my childhood.  Bread, butter, cinnamon and sugar. You could use that for this. You could also put this on ninja creamy ice cream on yogurt bowls, on protein pudding. I thought this was a great find at the Dollar Tree. I also love a good fruit snack. Fruit snacks are a great source of carbohydrates before a workout. I often take these when I hike or when I'm exercising and I saw these. These are from the brand Yummy Yummy and these are the mermaid fruit snacks. It says magical mermaid shapes in mixed fruit flavoring. You get eight pouches in here. Each pouch is only 50 calories. So I thought that was really good for a fruit snack. 50 calories. This is the size of the pouch. It looks like there is blue, green and pink pouches. They're super cute. They're shaped like little mermaid. They're chewy, they're fruity. They have really good flavor. Wow, I'm impressed. I wanna try the pink one. The blue is maybe blue raspberry tasting and the pink is more fruity, strawberry, raspberry tasting. These are really good. Like really, really delicious. And again, you get eight packs. They're only 50 calories a piece. Again, a great snack that you can take on the go and they're really, really good. These are some granola bars. I've never seen these at Dollar Tree. These are from the brand Laredo Supply and these are the chewy bars with honey. It says nine grams of whole grains. They're 110 calories a piece and they have two grams of protein and only three and a half grams of fat. I love honey flavored granola bars. I love the Nature Valley, the green package, the crunchy bars. Those are so high in calories though that I was thinking that this would be a great substitute for that. And again, I love a good honey granola bar. Here is what they look like. Here's the size of the bar. These are really, really thick. Mmm, they smell like the Nature Valley ones. These are really good. They're super, super soft but yet the oats are kind of crunchy. It's that perfect granola bar texture and consistency and the honey just shines. It's so good. It's not super sweet. It tastes more like natural honey. It's really, really good. Oh my gosh, I really like these. Now, another thing I love grabbing at Dollar Tree is freeze dried fruit, especially when there's no sugar added. And this is one of my favorite brands. This is the So Natural and they had a new fruit. These are the freeze dried peach crisps. I've never seen the peach crisps there and I love peaches. I go on these spurts where I get on big peach kicks so I was really excited to see these. 50 calories for the entire bag and the only ingredient in here is peaches. So these would be zero points. Here is what they look like. They smell so good. Juicy ripe peach. A juicy ripe peach. That's exactly what this tastes like. I love the crunch. It satisfies that craving for something crunchy but in a healthy way. And there is a ton in here for only 50 calories. So good. It's like these peaches were picked at peach ripeness and freeze dried. Yum.  I usually buy the bananas, the strawberries, whatever they have. And if you get the So Natural brand, there's never any added sugar. 10 out of 10. 10 out of 10. Speaking of fruit and good snack options, I found some trail mix. This is from the brand Nature's Garden. This is the Tropical Fruit Trail Mix. There's four individual servings in here. Trail mix can get away from me. I love trail mix. It's another thing I love to take on my hikes. I love it as a pre-workout, post-workout snack.  A serving is typically about a quarter of a cup and I can easily eat two or three times that. So I really appreciate that these are in single serve packs.  Each little pouch is only 110 calories and there's even a gram of protein. So here's what the little pack looks like. You actually get quite a bit of trail mix. This looks really good and I love tropical anything. I love banana chips. It's one of my favorite kind of crunchy sweet snacks. Mm-mm-mm. It's so good. The coconut flakes in here, they're the perfect texture. Slightly crunchy but still soft and easy to chew. The banana chips, really good. I love the pop of raisin and I love the pop of these little pieces of dried papaya. This is really delicious. And again, you get four single serve packs for $1.25. I'm really excited about these two. I may go grab a few more of these. Again, these are great for hiking, pre-workout, post-workout, little easy to go snacks. These would also be great snacks for kids. And what's great about them is they also satisfy your sweet tooth. Now I saw this water and I had to grab it. I actually bought two. I've already had one and this is the second one so I can give you my review on this. This is from the brand Flow and this is 100% naturally alkaline spring water. Now alkaline water is really, really good for you. I like to drink it periodically. It really helps rehydrate you and the alkaline properties have a lot of benefits. This water is really good. It's very crisp. It's very clean. There's no weird aftertaste there. You can't taste the alkaline, some alkaline waters. You can taste that kind of metal taste to it. This is really, really delicious. And this is a 25 ounce, 25 fluid ounce container. Obviously zero calories. Highly recommend if you're at the Dollar Tree and you want something to drink and you don't wanna buy a soda or a juice, grab the flow water. It's really good. I'm definitely going to be picking up some more. I also appreciate that there is the twist top. So you can take this with you. You don't have to drink it all in one shot either because it does have the twist top. Next up is another breakfast item or snack item. This is from the brand SunKiss and these are the breakfast sandwiches. Cranberry orange with dark chocolate cream. Now fun fact about me, I love orange and cranberry together and the fact that there's chocolate in here too. I mean, that's the trifecta for me. Each one of these little breakfast packs are only 105 calories and they have a couple grams of protein. So here is what the pack looks like and here's what the breakfast bar looks like. So you can see that there's some chocolate in the middle and then it has the cookie on both sides. Ooh, it smells amazing. I smell cranberry orange and chocolate. I also love those chocolate orange slices. That's actually what this smells like. Yes, 100% yes. These are so good. They remind me of the Belano cookies but you get the cranberry in the orange. It just comes through and the chocolate in the middle is really, really good. These are incredible. They would make a great breakfast bar if you paired them with some type of protein but I'm thinking these would be a really good snack. Again, something you could add to a little snack plate. They would be great for kids, great for on the go and it's a five pack of them for $1.25. I also wanted to grab a couple of crunchy snack options. So the first one is from Sniders and these are the Sniders pretzel pieces and honey mustard and onion. I love pretzels. You guys know I love pretzels. It's again, one of my favorite pre-workout snacks. I love pretzels and peanut butter, pretzels and cheese and I love that these are flavored honey mustard and onion. There's three servings total in the bag so keep that in mind maybe way out or pre-portion out your serving. Each serving is 140 calories and has two grams of protein. I have never tried the honey mustard pretzels. Ooh, they smell good. I smell mustard and onion. Here is what they look like. Delicious, absolutely delicious. I get honey mustard, I get onion. They're so crunchy, really good. I can see myself putting these into a snack plate with some cheese and some fruit. Oh my gosh, these are delicious, absolutely delicious. So a serving of these is 28 grams or a third of a cup. So again, three servings in the pack so make sure that you're not, I mean, you can eat the whole pack if you want but if you want to stick with one serving, just weigh or measure it out. I would probably just weigh 28 grams out on your food scale. And then I found the harvest snaps. Now I love the harvest snaps but I've never tried the tangy and zesty tomato basil. I've never tried this flavor. They usually only have the plain one in my Dollar Tree so I was excited to see this. It says gluten-free and powered by plant protein. So there's one serving in the bag. The whole bag is 270 calories but there's 10 grams of protein. Now this is a lot. I would say that for me I would probably only eat half of the bag at a time. So it would only be 135 calories but still five grams of protein in a crunchy snack. Ooh, they smell really good.  Here is what they look like. They taste like pizza. Definite pizza vibes. Really crunchy, really good. The flavor is there but it's not overpowering. It's perfect. Actually it tastes really good. Tastes really good. Definitely, definitely tastes like pizza. Baked red lentil snack. So if you see these tomato basil ones, highly recommend the plain ones are also delicious. Actually all the flavors are good. I just had never tried the tomato basil. I would just pick up a couple cracker options. Again, for snack plates, I love good crackers and cheese. So dip crackers in these little tuna packets like I mentioned. So you can find some really good cracker options at Dollar Tree. So the first one that I saw is from the brand Global Brands and this is the Snack Time Snack Pack Vegetable Crackers. I love vegetable flavored crackers. There's 12 servings per container. A serving is eight crackers for 140 calories and you even get two grams of protein. So they come in these little tubes. It reminds me of Ritz crackers. Ooh, they smell so good. They smell like those brand name veggie crackers. I don't know the name of them. I'll pop a picture in here. It's exactly what these smell like. Here is what they look like. They kind of look like a veggie flavored Ritz. They taste like a veggie flavored Ritz. If you love Ritz crackers, you're going to love these. They have that little bit of sweetness that you get in a Ritz, but just balanced beautifully with a vegetable flavor. They're really good. These would make amazing cheese and crackers. Amazing with dips. Ooh, these are really good. You get three of these packets in here for $1.25. Honestly, some of the best crackers I've gotten from the Dollar Tree. And the other crackers that I picked up are individually packaged. So I wanted to try them out. And that's these cheddar cheese crackers from the brand So-Risk. So-Bisk. There's nine packages of crackers in here. Each package is only 95 calories and 2.7 grams of protein. So unlike the vegetable crackers that you have to count out or weigh out you're serving, these are already individually packaged. So they're really good for on the go. They'd be great in a lunch. They'd be great to take hiking. They'd be great to give to kids. Here is what the little package looks like. They smell just like cheez-its. They smell just like cheez-its.  That's a lot of crackers. 95 calories for the whole pack. These are good. Now they're not as salty as cheez-its. Actually, I don't even know if there's any salt on them. There's very little salt on them. They definitely taste more cheesy. Like you were eating a piece of cheese, but in a really good way. They taste really good. They remind me of the wisps. You know how the wisps just taste really cheesy and crunchy? That's what these taste like. I actually really like them though and I appreciate that they're not so salty. That's a lot of crackers for only 95 calories and you get nine packages in here. This is an incredible deal. Then I grabbed some sweet treats. I love a good sweet treat from the Dollar Tree. And the first thing I saw are these Goldenberg's peanut chews. And I love a good peanut anything. I love that salty sweet. And you can actually get three of these for 130 calories. And there's two grams of protein. I mean, it's only two grams, but it's still protein in a sweet treat. So you get three of these for 130 calories. So I was thinking just one of these would be the perfect little sweet treat. And that's just over 30 calories. So not bad at all. Here is what it looks like. Mmm, delicious. Absolutely delicious. If you love chocolate-covered peanuts, you're going to love these. It is so good. The chocolate is really good. The peanuts are salty and crunchy. And then there's this Nugget. Really delicious. It says, chewy chocolate bites loaded with crunchy peanuts. Delicious. And like I said, three of these is a serving. So if you stick with one, super low point, super low calorie and the perfect salty sweet treat moment. Now I saw these at checkout and I had to try them. There was actually only two left. So maybe they're really good. That's why they were almost sold out. But these are Dunkin' Chocolate. Donut flavored filled chocolates. And the flavor is jelly donut. White chocolate stuff with layers of raspberry flavored cream and jelly fillings. Package is one serving, 210 calories, two grams of protein. These are really good size too. Look how cute these are. So really you could only eat one of these and it would be 105 calories. But I have to try it because I love white chocolate. I love jelly filled donuts. Look at that. There's cream, there's jelly, all coated in white chocolate. This is really good. It's really good. I get the tartness from the jelly. The jelly part of it is tart and then you get the cream, which is nice and sweet with the white chocolate. This is really good. I mean, better than I expected. No wonder there was only two left. Absolutely, absolutely delicious. So the lady who rung me up at Dollar Tree said this is some of the best chocolate. She's ever had, so I was so happy that I picked it up. And this is from the brand Landmark Confectionaries and this is milk chocolate and caramel bar. So two bars, there's four servings per container. Two bars is 140 calories with one gram of protein. And she did say, like I said, that this was some of the best chocolate she's had. So again, a serving is actually two of these. So that's pretty good. So if you had one of these, it would be 70 calories, which is not bad for a big hunk of chocolate filled with caramel. Each bar is divided out into four little sections. Ooh, you can see all the caramel. That is so good. Oh my goodness, she was right. It is creamy, silky, smooth chocolate. And then you get that little bit of caramel on the back end. Oh my gosh, this is so good. Decadent, really good chocolate for $1.25. And I have to say, I absolutely love that each of the bars are individually packaged and they're broken out into four pieces. That one bar, perfect to get your chocolate fix. Wow, I'm impressed. There was a dark chocolate one as well. When I go back to buy more peaches, more trail mix, more of the things I'm loving in this little snack haul, I'm definitely picking more of these up. This is incredible. And again, I love that it's individually packaged. Really helps with portion control.  I love candy in general. And I wanted to find an Easter candy that was lower calorie, lower point option, and it's gotta be peeps. Now I know, you either love them or you hate them, okay? I love a good peep, I love my peeps frozen and I love my peeps dry. So if I open them up and let them dry out, I love them. I also love the flavored peeps. All the flavored peeps are so good and as soon as I saw Sour Watermelon, we needed to try it. So this is one serving, which is five chicks and it's 130 calories. So super low calorie option for a sweet treat.    They're pink inside. They're pink inside. Oh my gosh, these are so cute. They smell incredible. Best flavor of peeps. It's sour, it's sweet. If you think peeps are too sweet, you may actually like these because the green sugary coating is very sour so it pairs beautifully with the sweet inside of the marshmallow. It's really soft. The marshmallow is incredibly good. Wow. I may need to buy some more of these as well before Easter. So that is my huge Dollar Tree snack haul and taste test. You guys, this is probably one of the best hauls I've done as far as taste wise. Everything was so good. There are so many things that just blew me away. They were so good. I love that we have lunch options, breakfast options, healthy snack options, fun snack options, crunchy, sweet, salty. We have a little bit of everything. And like I said, everything blew my mind. It was much better than I even expected it to be. So if you're on a budget, if you want some great snack options for affordable prices, because we know how insanely expensive groceries are right now, I would definitely check out your local Dollar Tree.
