Hi, Jeffery here with the Cube. We are on the ground at the San Jose Convention Center at the Intuit QuickBooks event. It's their second event they've ever had, QuickBooks Connect. 2015, about 5,000 people, developers, accountants, and small businesses really coming together in the QuickBooks ecosystem. Talking about next-gen accounting and really helping entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship grow supporting entrepreneurs. So really excited to have a key person in this whole thing, Leslie Barber, Small Biz Engagement Officer at Intuit. Welcome. And you said you were the entrepreneur not that long ago. So you're on the other side of the equation. That's right. So 10 years ago, I started a company called Nutribella. Spent eight years as running that company with my business partner and then decided I was going to lead back over to Intuit to try to help foster small business success to try to bring the experiences I had as a main street business owner to a technology company like Intuit that serves small businesses. So what are some of the things you specifically do as a help small business beyond just getting the software and helping with the software? Obviously this is a great event that we're doing for small businesses to come and learn, get really practical, pragmatic tips that they can take. They get to get re-inspired as well as be educated, connect with other small business owners. In addition, we've also launched a really cool network called Onit. It can often be so isolating to run your own business. You have to make all the decisions by yourself. And Onit is a great way online where small businesses can connect with each other, ask questions, answer questions and really help move their business forward. So do you find that people look at at the QuickBooks community as a place to build community with other entrepreneurs? Yeah, that's what we hope for. So Onit is, there's 75,000 small business owners in Onit. So that is a huge community and it's really not about the product. It's really about how do you move your business forward? How do we fuel your success in general as a small business owner? So it's a great way that we can show our customers and non-customers that we're here for the long haul and really here to help them build their business. And then, and obviously cloud, mobile, social leasing have opened up a whole new world, QuickBooks is now in the cloud. How has that really changed the relationship with the small business owners? From the old days where I waited for my one to year in a CD and in front of them. So true, well, the average small business owner uses 18 different apps to run their business. So having the technology in the cloud can really help them connect. Who wants to do a double data entry, right?  There's so many QuickBooks apps that have just really helped small business owners manage and run their business more seamlessly. And so by enabling them to do that, it just makes it so that they can spend more time on what they love, which is growing their business and less time on them running it for business. Now you were in a session earlier today. What were some of the topics you covered in your session was posted? So I joined Julie Gordon-Way and we did lessons learned from growing a $1 million business and how you can too. She did the how you can too and I did the lessons learned. So my business grew very quickly, very fast, but we hit some stumbling blocks with the economy. And so I, back in 2008, right? And so I talked about the different lessons that I've learned about how to, you really want to grow your business from 100,000 to a million or a million to 10 million. You need to stay distraction free. You need to be focused on your prize, focused on your passion, focused on your customer, solving a problem for them, not just in creating a solution, really solving that problem. So that's a lot of what we talked about. But still, even when you're doing that and you're growing your business, there's the kind of staying focused and then there's that kind of all the ancillary stuff that comes with growing a business. How many, what advice would you give to people to help kind of take care of all this other, that is distraction, but it's a necessary distraction to really grow that top line and get out there when you're customer? You know, one of the things that I found is that there's so many people out there who love to do what I hate to do. So quite frankly, find those people who love to do what you hate to do. And you know, that's one of the reasons why I think it's so helpful for small business owners to have an account with you. It's not also business owners want to do accounting and they seem to be more successful than they have an account. And so that can be a good example where financing, lawyer, legal, whatever it might be, you don't have to be the jack of all trades master of many. You can be the, you know, person who's kind of moving the business forward, focusing on revenue, focusing on your vision and then get people to help you. You can't make a million dollars on your own. No, that's a great tip. Find the experts that can help you, let them be the best at what they do and what you do. That's exactly right. And then now you've got this developer ecosystem. I don't know if people were maybe just me aware of kind of the end-to-end developer ecosystem to build new apps, specialty apps. So how's that for me to kind of grown at any age and really help you be honest with the person directly? Well, it's grown significantly. I mean, you imagine 18 different apps for every small business owner. We've got to have a way to talk to each other. I actually was a judge for the hackathon last night and it was so much fun to see in 36 hours when people were able to create to really make small business owners like the light next year. So it's absolutely critical. Small business owners are usually one or two people in the company. They can't do everything. So these apps can really help them save time, save money and move their business forward. So terrific stuff. So what are you working on next? What's kind of on your agenda that you're playing for the next three months? Ah, I'm all about own it right now. So own it's our network of small business owners. It's all online. It's a community that we don't know to get involved. They can go to ownit.com and they can download our app through iTunes. We will soon have one on the Android platform as well. Right now they can use our web mobile platform and we have over 75,000 people who are ready and excited to connect to you and connect with people locally, connect with people around the globe, ask your questions, get some answers. So I'm going to be throwing my heart and so on to that. Well, Leslie, thanks for taking a few minutes out of your busy day. I know you gotta run to another appointment because Leslie's all about engagement. She's engaging with more people. So congratulations on the great show. Thank you so much. Great to meet you, Jeff. Absolutely. So Jeff Rick here. We are at the Intuit QuickBooks Connect Show 2015. Thanks for watching.


Hey guys, it's Nate, AKA The Foot Accountant. Welcome back to the channel. It is the Monday start of a brand new week and of course, upgrade pack day. Today is the day where we're all gonna be trying to pack some of these League One Tots cards from the upgrade SBCs that we look forward to just about every week. Now of course, we know how it's probably gonna go down today, but I wanna take a look at some of the aspects that are unknown about what specific upgrade packs we could maybe get today, how the crafting process might work and how that could impact the market alongside of what other Monday content we could see today on this game. I also wanna take a look back to yesterday as we had some very nice showdown cards with Emerson and Christian Romero dropped for their Wednesday game between Italy and Argentina. The Copa America winner versus the Euro's winner from last year. And also take a look at how the market reacted to the 93 plus moments SBC as SBC fodder that we talked about investing in yesterday is on the rise because of this SBC being cheaper than what it was released at before. So we're gonna talk about all of that and the insane Belgian Pro League Tots which dropped some really nice cards that are really affordable and fun to trade with. So we're gonna talk about all of that today and more. But if you're excited to try to pack some League One today, hit the like on the video and of course, subscribe if you're new. Now let's just talk about these upgrade packs, right? It's Monday. We know, we expect upgrade packs today. We know one of them, we're 100% getting for sure. That's gonna be the premium League One upgrade pack. That is going to be a pack that will give you 12 golds, three rare, right? It's the same premium pack that we've had all the last couple of weeks. Now, what's that gonna do, right? How can you invest for this? Gold rares are still like 650 to 700 coins. They're cheap, you can get them on bid. They're probably gonna start to rise up today. Whether you wanna buy them as an investment or buy them and go, you know, put them in your club or go on a sign to get upgrade packs done right away today. That's up to you. I think 650 for gold rares is a dub. As right now, even some of them are expiring, which is kinda crazy. I'm gonna start stocking my club and putting a lot of, buying a lot of these cards to do upgrade packs today because that premium pack is what we know is gonna drop every single week of Team of the Season for the main League. So will it require League One specific rares? I think there's like literally no chance because they haven't required them before and if EA did that, there would be a lot of very mad people on the game today. You know, I really doubt it's gonna happen. So I think you're safe to go and buy any specific League of Rares. It doesn't have to be League One. Now again, we know we're gonna get that pack, the premium League One upgrade. But what are we gonna get for the secondary packs, right? There was one pack that was added to the code earlier this last week, but I don't know if that's gonna be our upgrade pack today because that pack is actually inside of the first gold cup. The 75 plus League One pack times two. So it's two players, 75 rated. That could be one of our packs today. That would be a League specific pack. And that's often what EA has done in the past couple of weeks. They dropped the premium upgrade. They dropped a League specific, either pack or player pick. So like last week, we had the 80 plus double upgrade LaLiga pack. And then we also had the 80 plus player pick non-League specific with it. So what I really hope they release today though is the League One premium and then a 75 plus or an 80 plus or anywhere in between there, League One specific player pick because that is gonna be the SBC that would be huge for packing blues from League One Tots because as we've mentioned many times, there are so few rares that are in the League One. Since there's so few rares, the chances of you packing a team in the season card are greatly, greatly increased when that player pool is kind of like slimmed down. When 75 plus gold rare, there's only like 54 75 plus gold rares in the League One. Whereas for primarily there's like over a hundred. So that's why I think, and you've seen it already, there's a 75 plus times 10 pack that's in the first gold cup as well as a reward. I think why you're seeing the lower ratings is because there's less players. We saw it for Bundesliga as well. And I think that's gonna be seen today in the upgrade packs that are released. But I really hope we get a League One specific player pick. And then also I hope we get some sort of either 81 plus double upgrade or an 80 plus player pick like last week. Since there's so few rares in the League One. Think about the fodder cards that you have an opportunity to pack from doing League One specific upgrades. You've got Varati, you've got Ramos, you've got a Chiqui, Kailor Navas. But other than that, there's not a lot of fodder cards.  It's gonna be harder to pack fodder this week. So I really hope that they do release. If they were to just release like an 80 plus player pick like last week, non-league specific and then a 75 plus player pick for League One and the League One premium, that would be a perfect combination because you have an opportunity to get fodder from all Leagues and then you could focus on the other two League One specific SBCs for a high chance at packing blues. So again, like I said, the best way that you can prepare is stock your club with commons and gold rares but probably gold rares being the one you wanna stock the most. Those are gonna be the ones that will go up in value and just thinking about how these cards went up. All gold rares during Premier League were over like 1.2 to 1.3K. I could see that happening very easily again this week because it's League One and this team is so cracked. There's so many great cards that are in it. I could see these cards going up. So whether you wanna invest in these or just buy them ahead of time to do upgrade packs for cheaper, both are a great option. And I think both would be, it's a good time to buy these.  So that's what I would really watch out for today with the gold upgrade packs. And again, what it really comes down to today is the pack weight. Last week for La Liga, the pack weight from upgrade packs was terrible. It was not good. We really, really hope that this week it's better, more consistent, even if we're not packing like big name players all the time. Like if we're getting a blue every 10 premiums, that's fine, right? Give me some claws, give me some duplicates. You know, like when I was opening packs for Bundesliga, I packed like six Neuers. But it was great because every single time I was getting a 95 rated Tots card that I could rinse into an SBC, right? That's what we want to see, consistent blues. Even if it's a lot of La Fonte, Saliba, Payet, we'll feel like we're packing a lot of blues. Get some good fodder, which is worth it for the coin investment to buy rares, to do the upgrade packs.  So that's what we hope for today. Some really, really good pack weight with these being released. Now also what I want to talk about is other content today on Monday. What else can we expect today? Well, we do have another player SBC that is leaked, but before we get to that, the SBC that I mentioned earlier, the 75 plus times 10, I think that would be an SBC, just like we saw during Bundesliga team in the season. They went with the lower rated and more players in it. Well, the best way to say this is, last week on Monday, we had the 81 plus times seven. I believe it was either Monday or Tuesday. And I think that this week's version of the 81 times seven for league one would be this same pack right here, the 10, 75 plus league one rare players pack. Now that could be wrong and they could add another SBC to the code. As of right now, the 10, 75 plus league one pack and the 75 plus times two league one pack are the only packs that we have in the code. Now also remember player picks do not have to be added to the code. So there could be a change in that or two before content today. We could have some different upgrade SBCs, but I would expect one of those gamble type packs to be released today on Monday as a part of content as well. And then I mentioned the leak. This is the leaked card that we have at the moment that was dropped yesterday for an SBC to come during league one tots. I think this might be tomorrow on Tuesday, but this could be a fun card. A lot of people used headliner Saturday or earlier on in this game. Really good, really cheap card to be completely honest. And I think that this card right here would be really cheap as well when he's released. Probably would end up dropping the price a little bit of a Gen Duzzi, maybe a Fofana type card, depending on how good the stats look because this is a predicted stat post right here. These are not expected or confirmed stats for this souvenir card. So depending on how much juice EA were to give this card, I think it would be cheap regardless, but that's our next SBC. I think it's gonna be tomorrow. And then the last thing I'll say is we're in kind of a weird schedule with the secondary league tots. I would say there's a, there's a maybe small chance today that we could see a guaranteed tots SBC today on Monday if they want to spread them out because we had the Super League released on Saturday and then the Belgium Pro League released yesterday. I wouldn't be surprised if they wanted to spread out the guaranteed tots SBCs and say, hey, instead of just dropping Super League and the Belgium Pro League on Tuesday, maybe they'll spread them out and say, okay, we'll do Super League Monday, Belgium Pro League Tuesday and then league one on Wednesday. I don't know, that's just me kind of thinking a little bit, but we might see that today. That might not be till tomorrow. They might just drop two in the same day, but I think the real big part of content today is the upgrade packs and we all know that, right? So a 75 plus times 10 seems likely and then all the league one upgrade packs is gonna be the main part of content today for sure. Anything other than that, and I'm not expecting too much else other than that right now. So what I wanna talk about next though is actually go back in time to yesterday and talk about what's moving on the market right now and talk about what's going on with this game. I do think upgrade packs will move some of these league one Tots cards today on the market, but I wanna go back to yesterday first before we talk about this, because this kind of rolls into how I think the market might move today on Monday. But let's talk about fodder, because we talked a lot about SBC fodder in yesterday's video saying that it was a really, really good buy and if you got in GGs because especially on the upper tier, the higher echelon of fodder, your 87s, I was buying last night at 10, 11,000 coins, they're up 2K a card, 88s or 16K, that's up 2K a card. You know, 89s are up a couple thousand coins a card, but the stuff that went up the most and this stuff spiked a couple hours ago was your higher tier because EA re-released the 93 plus moments upgrade, but they made it cheaper. And this price has gone up because right away when fodder was really low, this SBC was actually like 490K when it first came out. It was like 500K flat to do. Now you can see the price has gone up a little bit as fodder has kind of risen with the hype of this SBC since they reduced it, it was like down, I think it was 650K or 660 last time it was out. So it's a lot cheaper now, a lot easier for people to do. It's like 100, 150K less. And that means that the fodder has gone up with this and I think that fodder was impacted a little bit by some of the Romero and the Emerson SBCs, but since the higher tier on fodder went up the most, I think it was really just people were going out and doing this SBC yesterday. So if you sold any of your fodder GGs, some of it's come down just a little bit. Like can we take a look at Kante, he's on foot been at 28,000 coins. Yesterday he went from 26K, 25K when I bought him last night, he spiked at 32, now he's kind of back down. If you sold in a spike, that's fine, 100%, no worries. I actually held on to a lot of my stuff though, like Lewandowski, I bought a few of him. I did a club stock, like I was mentioning to you guys last night, that's kind of what I did. Lewandowski went from 33K all the way to 43, went up 10,000 coins a card, now he's back down to 41, but again, like I mentioned, we are still gonna have a League One Tots guaranteed SBC coming later on this week. And again, with the upgrade packs coming out today, that gets everybody in the crafting mode, right? People are gonna have duplicate Tots cards, they're packing like what SBC do I go and do? Okay, maybe they go and do a Varati or maybe they go do a Lamar or maybe they go do any of these other SBCs that are out right now that they might be working on, which would include a 93 plus moments upgrade, which is repeatable twice by the way, that helps. That could raise some of this fodder later on throughout the week, along with the League One guaranteed on Wednesday. So I think that fodder for me was still a hold, especially if you bought on the lower tier, like the 86s, 85s to 87s, I would hold that stuff right now. I think it's gonna go up later on in this week, Tuesday, Wednesday, as we get more content and stuff like that. But if you did sell, then GG's, because you definitely didn't make a decent amount of coins. As you can see, all my transfer list, behind some of the Tots cards that I'm flipping, I've got a bunch of this fodder still that I've kind of club stocked and put extras on my transfer list. So I'm holding a lot of this stuff that I got in the low 30s, like for a Lawa, there's another Lawa, Conte's at 24K, he's now up at, he was 32, so that just stuff, I'm gonna hold it a little bit later on. You can always list for Lazies, list five and 10K over, the cheapest buy now price on the market and you'll get a couple sales every day and it'll help you maximize your profit on that SPC fodder as well. But I'm still holding, especially on the lower tier stuff. Now let's talk market in general, because again, like I mentioned, with upgrade packs coming out today, moving on from the SPC fodder part of the market, how is it gonna impact the League One Tots players? Because during Premier League Tots, if you guys remember, the pack weight was pretty good and people started opening upgrade packs and guys like Jutta, Trent Alexander, Arnold, those Tots cards actually dropped and a lot of the Prem Tots cards actually fell in price on Monday when the upgrade packs were released. Now, is that gonna happen today with League One Tots cards? You know, for the upper tier, these higher echelon cards, like the Neymar, the Chalmene, the Mbappe, the Messi, those types of cards, I really doubt it. I don't think that these cards are gonna be affected too much, because if you think about it, why would a card drop today that is in packs for League One Tots? Well, if it's a guy like Payette, who is probably gonna get packed a decent amount from upgrade packs, you know, some people might be packing them today and saying, oh my goodness, now I can sell the tradable Payette that's in my team and sell this version and use my intradable one that I just packed from an upgrade pack, right? If the pack weight's good, right? It all depends on if the pack weight's good. But people also might sell a Payette card and say, okay, 85,000 coins, I'm gonna sell him, get some coins, go buy some golds and do upgrade packs. That, when 100% happens today. So the cards that are gonna get packed the most from this team, it's no secret, right? Payette, Saliba, Lafont, Terrier, Genduzzi, and Klaus. I think those guys, especially if the pack weight is good, they're gonna get packed a decent amount. I think that's gonna make their prices drop off just a little bit after the content drop today. But then for the higher tier cards with like Paquette, Chalmene, Neumenge, well, Neumenge is kind of cheap too. He might actually drop off a little bit because he'll get packed a semi-decent amount. But Marquinhos, those types of cards, I don't think they'll move that much. Now, could they rise up a little bit this morning? They could, right? Marquinhos is 723,000 coins. And on Saturday, I flipped him on a huge flip right here. He went from like 700K up to 800 back down. Yesterday on Sunday, he was 730. Kind of peaked at 760, went down to 713 and just has been chilling between like 715 to like 740. You know, you might see a few rises on these cards. Monday mornings, we usually see the market rise a little bit. Even though weakly rewards aren't given out on Monday mornings anymore, it seems like people are just used to that scenario. So we've seen that happen the past couple of weeks. But I don't see any prices right now on any of these cards that make me wanna go out and buy them. You know, you might have a guy like Fofana go up a little bit. But most of these cards aren't even down. Like Paqueta 1.32, like he is up. And these cards are pretty rare. So, you know, a couple rises today might happen on a few of these cards before the content drop and maybe some small drops in price after the content drop. But I wouldn't expect anything crazy today with these unless EA do something crazy, of course. But that's kind of my feeling on these. Now where there's a lot more fluctuation are on these rare new Tots cards from Saturday and Sunday. I've been trading these Pro League Tots cards like no way, Undav is 500K again, no shot. I literally just bought Undav. I kid you not, I literally just bought Undav like two and a half hours ago at 399,000 coins. And is this guy actually 500K again? It's crazy. Like you can even see on my transfer list I have Dequetaleras. I was buying Dequetalera at 150, sold them at 230. He was back down to 100K. So I bought like 10 of them at 100K. And I believe now Dequetalera is even back up to like 150, right? Is that true? 166, yeah, he's like 150,000 coins. But this Undav card who was cracked is really, really rare. So these cards are fantastic to trade with because they are so rare. 510, 518, no, wait man, that's crazy. I think that I might take the cash since he's up 100,000 coins. One thing I've learned recently is that you take the dough when you have a quick flip like this. Is this card gonna be worth 500K for forever? Probably not, but you know what? That sort of fluctuation in two hours time up over 100,000 coins. I'm gonna take that cash, especially on a 500K card where there's not that much tax. So I'm gonna list 510. Mine is not fresh if that sells. I'll be a happy man. So that's kind of what I'm doing right now with a lot of these tots is just doing some quick flips with them. I bought a Van Aken at 122. You know, that sort of stuff right now seems to be paying some pretty good dividends just with the quick flips. Now with the rest of the market, I know some of you guys still have some league one specials. That situation, like we talked about in last night's video, it's just a mess, honestly. Like Jelson Martin's maybe continues to rise slowly throughout the week this week. He's like 450 to 460. You just have so many people that have invested in a card like this. As you see me checking to see if there's any investors in here, like look at all these, bro. Like like half of these are investors with the zero games played. So I just think there was a lot of investing but you've seen some other cards that were really low, like bounce back and have moments of rarity. This Awar card, he's, okay, he's low again. So Awar went from like 500 all the way up to 600 and now he's back down, but he's really rare. So, you know, maybe on some of these cards, like man, 517 for Awar, that's pretty cheap after, you know, only seeing a few cards here to 560. So just be continuing to look into these cards if you wanna trade with them. As a lot of people, I haven't checked at Betty Pele in a hot minute. Actually, I wanna look at him. As a lot of people are still building teams together in 900K, so he's up. But you know, Renato Sanchez, Campanbe, all of your League One specials, there will be a really good place to trade this week because their prices will be fluctuating, a decent amount on the market just because people are gonna be buying and selling and building League One teams because that's where the hype is right now in this game. So definitely take a look and watch those cards for some trading opportunities. In my opinion, that'd be a really good place to look on the market. And then also look for panic selling on other out-of-packs Tots cards. As we see the hype transition into League One, and even right now as it's a Sunday night, let me scroll through a few of these Tots squads really fast. Looking at some prices, Vinny is up big. Pedri is kinda down 139, he was lower. Kunde is up, Milita was up, Felix is down. Modric is down a little bit, Akunya is down. Let's go Bundesliga. I know some of these guys were down bad. Lewas 430 and Kugu 127. Jude Bellingham's under two mil. You know, these cards have moments of panic selling. Where people are like just trying to get out after a weekend. And they have opportunities to be traded with and to be flipped. So, Cancelo is 810, wow, he's down a lot. That's crazy, De Bruyne's down some. The Suarez finally dropped 1.25. He's so incredibly overpriced. How much is Fred? 328, yeah, he's not really down. He's been dropping since he went out of packs. But again, that's just how it works with these Tots cards, right? You know, the new League comes out, the hype cards come out, especially with a ton of midfielders. That's why guys like Pedri and Modric are down because there's so many insane midfielders in this team that people want to change their teams around and buy and use players that link up with these brand new team of the season cards. So, you know, there's still gonna be places to trade on the market if you're trying to do that sort of thing. And then, you know, as I've mentioned before, some of your Serie A special cards, you could continue to watch these, right? I know there's not as many of them out there, but like at the Bala or this Latam we've looked at a few times. I think, you know, this card is still pretty low. It's 480, 485. That's kind of as low as the Bala has been from what I've seen. You know, just continue to keep an eye on these cards because we have had our first Serie A team of the season leaked player. And I actually want to show you guys this player because this guy's stats look really, really crazy. I don't know if you saw it yesterday. He's the first Serie A Tots to be leaked. It is Rafael Leao. Stats expected. This means his card stats will probably be this. A huge plus eight overall over his headliners card. 99 pays, 98 dribble, 95 shooting, 90 passing and 90 physical. Like wow, man, like that's crazy. What an insane boost on that card. And if that's gonna set the tone for a Serie A team of the season, then we might have some really cracked out cards coming in the next week or two. So that's just kind of something to be watching out for. It's an early leak. It's the only one that we have so far, but we'll see more of them later as we head throughout the week this week. I know people are hyped for League One and stuff, but we are definitely gonna keep an eye on those as we head throughout the week this week. But again, the hype for today is with the upgrade pack. So good luck if you're opening and let me know. Of course, as it always goes, make sure you check the links down below in the description.  If you pack the other like I did and get insanely lucky, still don't know how in the world I did this. But if you pack something insane, tweet it to me. I wanna see a picture of that, right? I wanna see the team that he fits in as well. I love seeing that kind of stuff. And you guys succeeding.  Tweet that to me as well, right? I absolutely love it. Anyways, I hope you all pack blues today. We're gonna try to get this Tots counter from 70 up to 100 in the next two weeks, or maybe three weeks with Ultimate Tots. Our goal is to get to 100, but LaLiga really slowed us down because the pack weight was awful. So hopefully that is not the case this week. So again, if you did enjoy the video today and helped you out at all, hit the thumbs up on a comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe. If you are new, it has been Nate The Foot Account and have a happy Monday and I'll catch you guys later. Peace out.


Hello, hello everyone. I am your teacher Robin. Welcome to Learn English Live. I am back to this channel. So I hope everyone can hear me and see me. Please let me know in the comments. It's been a long time since I've done a live stream. I guess I'm a little nervous. I'm scared. Let's see who's in the chat. Oh, I gotta fix something. Already there's technical problems. Already. YouTube is still not perfect. If you have an English question, or I guess any question, now is the time to ask me the questions. If you got a question and it's, you know, you can't sleep. It's just an itch you need to scratch. Now is the time to ask the question. I hope it's about English, but if it's not, that's okay. Only today. All right, I'm fixing the, okay, technical problem fixed. And thank you. Sleepwalkers says we can hear you and see you. That's good to know. Let's check the chat. Leila says it's been long ago. There was no, Leila, I can see your English is getting a little weaker. What's this? It's been long ago. There was no live stream. I am so excited. That's, that's it. That's okay. But the first one, little problem. Here, the weather is getting so warm. What about there? It's just normal spring weather, I guess here. Okay. Raid misses me. Henrik's not speaking English. May is here. Sleepwalker. I guess among these people I haven't seen sleepwalker. The longest. Sadly, May. All right. Anyway, you got the English question. Start popping in those English questions. I'm a little rusty with my teaching, but I'm sure you guys have some questions. And sleepwalker, what are your plans for this channel? Well, sleepwalker, as you know, I did live streams for daily English homework. I did live streams for the IELTS insider. The main reason I did live streams for those two channels was to get them monetized quicker. And both of those channels are now monetized. So I'm making five cents a month on those channels. So I won't be doing much, maybe no more live streams on those other channels. I will probably just be doing live streams on this channel. We'll see how it goes. Sleepwalker, do you have any recommendations? Let me know because I value your opinion. Harry 300 is here. Hello. I'm trying out this new drink today called Marlin. They did not sponsor this. So Marlin zero. I can't point here. And zero, zero, you mean zero sugar, right? And it's a grapefruit. And I bought this today. It was about $2. But it was in Korea, we call one plus one, you get two for the price of one. That's how you would say it in English. Two for the price of one, but Korea one plus one says zero sugar. It says, well, zero calories, but it's so sweet. Like, I don't know why it's so sweet. It's delicious. Hey, I like sweet things. But it's surprising because usually zero, you know, like if you have a zero or zero calorie cola tastes a little different, but this tastes like sugar, sugar. But they did not sponsor me. So I cannot recommend it. Okay, Robin, I want to say it has been a long time. Good. No, any live stream. No, no, we got to fix this up. I guess fixing Layla's English is what we need to do. So you say once you let's go full screen power of the internet puts me full screen. You said, I want to say small letter, it has been a long time. And then you say no, any live stream that is not English. You got to say since we've we've seen this is the perfect place to use since we've seen any live stream. That I want to say it has been a long time. So you have that article there a long time since we've seen any live stream. There you go, Layla in a Maria. Hello, Latif. Yeah. Hello. The A to Z English podcast I found diet Dr. Pepper in Korea the other day. Very exciting. Yeah, a friend of mine showed me that I drank it. But I don't see it very much anywhere. How about sweet girls, Robin?  It is true. I like sweet girls more than sweet Harry 300. It's strange to see the English podcast title here. I'll be talking to you soon.  I took two trips. I prefer I prefer the second trip. Salma, I had a really, really good time. I had a really, really good time on my second trip. It was so good, Salma. I cannot even talk about it. Sleepwalker, don't you want to make Q&A? This is a Q&A live right now. If you got a question, ask. Sleepwalker, I think for the learning English life, I might do two a week. I might do one Q&A and one news. I like doing the news because that keeps me up to date on the news. And it's a topic that a lot of students seem to be interested in. So I'm thinking one Q&A a week and one news study the news live stream. What do you think about that, Sleepwalker? If you have any other advice, let me know. What do you like to learn live? Yeah, we know who you are, Jack. The nicest guy. Jack is so nice. It's disgusting. He is too nice for the internet, for YouTube. And I think everyone here agrees that Jack is definitely a nicer guy than me. He is the nicest.  And it's, you know, living in Korea is tough. And sometimes Korea beats up people and makes them a little jaded. And jaded means, you know, not so nice. But Jack is a really nice guy. Okay. Surprisingly, Korea did not corrupt him yet. Why didn't you like, I didn't say, I didn't say I didn't like the first trip. Who said I didn't like the first trip? I didn't say that. I like learning new words as we did before here. 10 words, fill the gaps in sentences, and I like different games. Well, I'm going to check.  I'm going to do a quick check here to see. All right. So if I go to here, if we go here, these are my past videos. It's a little bit small. Let's see if we can get that bigger. The past live streams, it's too big. Okay, this is the best size they can do. And we got to look at the views, you know, YouTube's about views. So Saudi Arabia, 192, not so popular. Robin's travel planning 196, not too popular. Interview with May, that was a little more popular. World News headline, that did okay. These were, if we go down, James interview was good, but this World headline news, it's got a lot of views. So yeah, that's what I want to do. And then if we go down, yeah. Oh, here, 10 phrasal verbs, 362, that's not bad. But here, well, this one, 10 essential vocabulary, that got 900 views. Maybe. Yeah, those videos are okay. I might do them depends on my mood. I might test it out. We'll see how it goes. We'll see how it goes. Okay, anyway, thanks for bringing that up. All right, still practicing how to move around here. All right, the easy, the all this praise is going to give me a big ego.  Anna, we cat, hello. Definitely Jack is one of the nicest people who I've known. Yeah. I feel a little sad that you liked the second trip more than the first one. It doesn't mean I didn't like the first one. You're disappointed.  So I was gone on trips for, you know, over two months. So over, I must have been gone out of the country at least 60 days. And Leila, I saw you for what, a total of maybe six hours total. So that's a very short time in the 60 days I was away. So yeah, you were a very special event. But in 60 days, that was I saw you for a total of maybe six hours, right? Sleepwalker, oh, you can make a vote about it on the channel. You know, sleepwalker, votes don't work very well because, how can I say this? The sleepwalker and the other people, you are loyal followers, you know me, you like me. But most of the people watching the videos are not you guys, all right? So, you know, of my loyal followers, maybe I have 20, 20 loyal followers. Well, I need a video to hit 1,000 people. So I need, yeah, I'm very happy sleepwalker that you are very loyal. But the target audience is not just you. I have to try and attract more people. I got to get more sleepwalkers here. I got to get more Leila's here. There's a lot of good people out there that I need them to come. Yes, we are lucky to have the A to Z English podcast with Jack. He's amazing. He takes, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, Jack, Jack, Jack, yeah. That's enough. This is not the Jack special. We'll get Jack on here whenever he's ready to come on. Yep. Hello, Ray. The total for about nine hours. Really? I don't think it was nine hours. Nine hours? No. No, no, no, no, no. It was not nine hours because we went driving. We had dinner. We went to the cave. That was, what, three hours in the next day? Two or three hours? Nine hours. We'll see. Any English questions? Have you guys been studying English? Have you been improving English? While Robin is not here, you've been studying from Jack, what other channels, what other live streams have you been going to? You've been cheating on me with who? Which teacher? Don't be jealous, Robin. I am jealous, Salma. Let's make clones, clone accounts.  I have questions. Well, don't tell me you have questions. You just ask the questions. We were with Jack all the time. Yeah, Jack babysitted the students or he stole my students. I think he stole my students. All right, teachers here. Here we go. Which one is correct? I can't believe how lucky I am to be loved by wonderful friends. I can't believe how lucky to be I am. I think you need the I am there. Can't believe how lucky I am. That's the expression you want to say. I can't believe how lucky I am to be loved by wonderful friends. I can't believe how lucky I am. You want to use the I am. I can't believe how lucky you are. I can't believe how lucky I am. So let me make my own sentence. So I'm going to say you guys can practice making your own sentence using this structure. I can't believe that's how we say it. How lucky I am. And then, yeah, we're usually going to use the infinitive here to have so many loyal followers. All right, there is my example sentence. So you have to start. I can't believe how lucky I am.  And then, the second part is you're going to have your infinitive here. Do you always use the infinitive? Maybe I can't really think about that, but it's a good structure. And then why you're lucky. So if you guys can try out that sentence, I can't believe how lucky I am to give me a sentence. Jack starts competing with you, Robin, to get most of your. Why do you have a comma there, Layla? Jack starts competing with you comma Robin. Okay, so Jack starts competing with you Robin. I think you'd need a comma Robin comma comma Robin comma identify the name to get most of your fans. Yeah, well, he can take them. Cat, how was day? That's your question, cat. You haven't seen me. You've been studying English. Your question, how was day? It's not even grammatically correct. You should say, how was your day? Cat, do better. Ask a better question, cat. Disappointed in your question, cat. You haven't seen me a few months.  How was your day, cat? Jack starts competing with you, Robin, to get most of your fans. Yeah, Jack can. I have no problem if you guys are following Jack more than me because he deserves all the attention he gets. Harry 300. Oh, this looks long, Harry. You better be a good question. Why is there an $800 charge? Why do you have zeros at zero? Because that's not 800,000. This is 800. This is 800,000 with a comma, but you wrote 800. There is no 800 period. Let's get that bigger. This is $800. This is $800,000, but in English, we do not write numbers with the period unless you wouldn't put three zeros. You'd put two zeros, and you would put cents, some sort of sense there, then 852 cents. But if it's a round number, you wouldn't have. So we'll just go with $800. Why is there an $800 charge on my credit card? Dad, I'm a material girl. Get out of my home. I've been hemma. No, I don't know. I never heard I've been hemma in my life. Where did you get that? That sounds like just terrible, terrible English. I've been hemma. That makes no sense to me. That makes no sense. That is crazy talk. Who are you talking to, hemma? Is that from music video? Is that some sort of slang? I want to play, there's a music video that says being hemma. Okay, I see it in the urban dictionary. Seems to be some sort of slang, and I'm not going to teach it because it's not a popular slang. It seems to be just about some song or something. So, Harry, that's not the type of English I want to teach. All I could say is I don't know that I don't use that native speakers don't use that. That seems to be from a song. So some people may have used that as a slang meaning. I would suggest that you don't use that. How do native speakers express this situation? I fell down the stairs. I think I told you that. We don't say I fell from the stairs. I fell down the stairs. You fall down the stairs. Oh, sorry. I'm tired and sad today. That is why I made that mistake. Well, Kat, you know, I'm interested. Why are you sad, Kat? Explain. Tell me that story. In my opinion, Mr., you have an unprecedented method to teach English. Unprecedented. No one has ever done it before. Thank you. But I'm wondering what is that unprecedented method? Compliment or compliment, which is correct? The spelling? That's a dictionary question. May. You're treating me like a dictionary here. May. You're forcing me to go to the dictionary to see if there's a version. So those are two different words. And you're asking which, you're confusing me, May, because those are two different words used in two different ways. So which word are you trying to use, May? Now, there you go. There's Jack showing off. Jack showing off. He's showing off during my live stream. Come on, Jack. Really? We're going to play this game. He's, he's hip with the slang and he wants, he wants to show, hey, I'm in tune with the young people. Yeah, yeah. You check the urban dictionary two seconds after I did. Robin, can you choose a short textbook and give us an explanation of the vocabulary? I can't use a book. Never be copyright problems. I cannot teach from a book on a live stream. That would be violation of copyright. So I can just throw in the vocabulary, but I can't use a book. All right. A to Z knows, yeah, look at this. Come on, you guys. Look at these A's, Z guys taking over. Hema. How come I'm not seeing Hema? You know, I'm out traveling the world. Where's Hema? You know what? I'm going to go to, hey, I'm going to, I'm going to go to the urban, not the urban dictionary. I'm going to go to Uglish. Here we are on Uglish. We're going to get to the bottom of this. And let's put in Hema. No results found. No one's saying Hema. You, you gotta, you gotta show me where it's used in a spoken way. Where is your evidence? I'm calling you. I'm calling you out on this. Where is your evidence? This is actually an expression. To describe a person who can do multitask, do native speakers use multitasking? Well, what's your sentence? Make a sentence using multitasking or multitasker. Yeah, you can use those, but you can use both those words, but what is the grammatical structure of your sentence? I want to see that you try making a sentence. Yeah, Robin, I found it on TikTok. Ew. You're learning English from TikTok? Ew. Sorry, I can't tell you everything about this, but my teacher scolded me today. Oh, cat. Now we really want to know. Come on. Come on. Tell us what's happening. Busted. Sure. I'm in stories. I will, I will check it. I'll try some stuff. There's so much new slang, Sleepwalker. You know, every day there's new slang. There's a new song and people are saying new things, but slang, slang is often temporary, and it's used by very young people. So as an educator, yeah, I can, if I know the slang, I can teach that, but usually if there's some new slang, I don't want to waste my time learning it, and I don't want to waste my time teaching it, because probably in a year or two, that's gone. That's not even, that's not even popular anymore. Yeah, cat. Let's hear your sad story. Let's keep up the base anyways. Yeah. Well, I like questions. Usually there used to be a lot of questions, but today I'm not so many questions. Remember in the old days, I couldn't keep up with the questions. I was about five, sometimes 10 or 20 minutes behind the questions, but here I am, all caught up on the chat. Just people that are talking, actually, not teaching who are talking. On TikTok, Hima, do you have a link to the video where someone says, I'm going to go to TikTok. I'm going to go to TikTok. TikTok is, TikTok's a drug. Once you get on it, you can never get off. Robin and Jack are the most multitaskers teacher, as far as I know.  So you can't put most noun. Multitaskers is a noun, Layla. So when you're making a sentence, you probably want to say multitasking there. Do you have any idea about your future video on daily English homework? Yeah, yeah, yeah, Sama, I'll probably make them tomorrow, actually. I think what people ask me to make in the daily English homework, WhatsApp group, if you have a request for a video, I'll probably do that video. So Sama, if you have something I want to teach, you just put that in the daily English homework video and I'll try to teach that. I can't see the link. Wait, let's go to live streams. I don't see the link. I miss a lot English homework. Well, yeah, I can see your Graham. I miss English homework a lot. Hello, Eunice. Ah, Cat. Actually, I did my homework today, but I was wrong. So my teacher scolded me. I cried a lot today. Oh, did your teacher yell? I've changed as a teacher over the years. You know, a long time ago, I used to get angry at students, but these days, I try never to get angry, never to get angry at students at my university when they make mistakes. And these days, actually, there's only one student that makes me angry. Right. Robin and Jack are the most multitasking teachers. As far as you know, this sounds a little bit better, Layla. This is a better structure. You could say Robin and Jack are multitaskers. Multitaskers is a noun and multitasking teachers. There's adjective there, multitasking. And I, let's see what the dictionary says. Multitasking is a noun. It doesn't show multitasking as a, it shows us a noun. Yeah, I can't teach anymore. Multit, multitasking. It's strange. Okay, I get it. So multitasking, yeah, a noun. So you need, if I said you need, you need multitasking skills. So multitasking is a noun, but okay, I got it. So Robin and Jack are the most multitasking teachers. We don't really express multitasking that way. I guess you can. Jack and Robin are the most multitasking teachers. As far as I know, how would we express that? We'll throw that one to the A to Z. We'll throw all the difficult stuff to the A to Z podcast. Have any of your students start crying after remarks? Yes, I make students cry all the time. You know, the new generation is very, very sensitive. If you say some, some negative thing, some people are easy to cry. Uh, there is no baddest. There is no baddest. Baddest, if someone uses baddest, that might be in a song because that's, that would be slang. But we should state a worse for proper English. You want to use worst or worst, bad, worse, worst. That's what you want to follow. But young people as kind of slang instead of worst, they might say baddest in a song or something, but, uh, Eunice, you don't want to use baddest. I never, never use baddest, uh, but it's possible in a very, very casual way, very, very casual way. You don't want to do that in any formal situation. Just use worst. Are your students old or young? They are all ages. Me at the university there is young. Who is that student? Your college student?  It irritates me as online student. I have met two multitaskers two weeks ago. It is, it is possible to use like this. No, multitasker is not really a title. Everyone multitasks. So you multitask. Everyone here can multitask. So I met two multitaskers. That's not really a title for someone. You're trying to use it as a title. They are multitaskers, but I think you want to express that that they multitask well. You can describe because everyone multitask, but they multitask well. Yeah. Palavi, not here. Yeah. Okay. Well, multitasker and multitasking are like a challenge. I think, uh, you got to simplify that a little, Leila. So I think you, you think they have some special strong meaning. No, no, no, just uh, people usually say it like, Oh, uh, I'm a good multitasker or I'm a bad multitasker. That's usually how we express that. We don't say, well, you could say, yeah, Robin and Jack are good describing them as good multitaskers, but it's, it's not, these are not big titles that we want to put on people. It's just a short description of a people. I need to improve my writing skills, as you mentioned it. So my suggestion would be writing homework, but I know it takes a lot of your time for you to correct that type of homework. Well, uh, we'll see, uh, of course, I'll check your writing, uh, Sama, uh, I'll be testing stuff, but of course there will always be writing homework. They're the best multitaskers. The best. Are we the best? Um, I don't, well, another problem is I don't think I'm a good multitasker because right now, uh, I, I can't, I can't really focus on many things. Uh, I can do one thing at a time, but doing two or three things, I don't think I'm a good multitasker and Jack, a good multitasker, maybe this guy multitasks and he succeeds. Um, you can say that, but we don't usually say, you know, again, you're building up multitask as some great unique skill. It's not some great, amazing skill. Like it can be, but I mean, most people multitask, uh, it sounds like he drinks water and succeeds. Well, everyone drinks water. Uh, does multitasking help them succeed? Uh, I guess you could say, yeah, the ability to multitask well might lead you to more success. Maybe something like that. You can, but you're giving an opinion about multitask, but just every day to day English, how do we use multitask? Just people describe it. I multitask well, I'm, I don't multitask well. I'm not good at, uh, I'm not good at multitasking. That would be a common way people, native speakers say it. It is strange. She is not here, uh, because Kat, why are you asking about Palavi? Is Kat another account for Palavi? I suspect Kat is another account for Palavi. Is that true? Kat, are you Palavi? I feel you are jealous with Jack. No, not at all. Jack is my best friend in the world. I love him to death. I'm not jealous of Jack. Jack, uh, is jealous of me, but he can talk about that on his show. The ability to multitask well can lead you to success. Yes. Palavi, hello everyone. Well, we call some systems multitasking, if they can do, yeah, anything that can do many tasks at once is multitasking. That's what it means, multi, many tasks. This guy, multi-desperacy, because he can teach English while sleeping. Who, uh, that's not, that's not this guy. When I sleep, I hope I do not multitask. I hope I'm not teaching English in my sleep. The detective is investigating. Yeah. What do you think, sleepwalker? So from this question, I guess we can describe people with multitasking, multitasker and multitask, as you explained. Well, usually, yeah, you can, but it's, I don't think it's as common as you think it is. And I don't think you, it's as special as you think it is. Uh, it is just a casual way to describe a certain situation. Uh, but you wouldn't really put that on your resume under skills, multitasker. I don't think you put that on your resume. That's not a real skill. That's just kind of a, kind of observation of someone, oh, that person can do two or three things at once. They're a good multitasker or they're good at multitasking. I think you're guessing, you're guessing are right about, you're guessing is right about cat. Yes, cat. You are Palavi. I think concentrating at one thing at a time, one thing at a time, Trump's hula hoops. What? Uh, sometimes we've got to focus on many things like during, during a live stream, I got to focus on many things. Uh, I see the jack is very kind. Yeah. I respect them too. Harry three and I have to teach you how to sleep. Isn't it called a dream? A dream. That's called a nightmare. If I'm teaching while I'm sleeping, that is definitely 100% a nightmare. I do not want to be teaching in my dream. Leave me alone when I'm dreaming. Cat says, I don't know her. I was asking you because I see her many times. Well, there's other people that come here like Michelle. Where is Michelle? You didn't ask about Michelle or, uh, who else is not here today becomes many times. And Palavi's not always here. Maybe cat is sunny. Who's sunny? All right. So I guess for the future, let's make a quick list here. So upcoming videos, what we'll do one Q and a, but and then vocabulary. Um, these are live streams and then world news. I'm favoring more of world news because that seems to be more popular. Uh, we'll see. I might, I might even stop the Q and a maybe the Q and a is gone. Well, Q and a is important though. So we'll see, we'll see how it goes. Vocabulary. Yeah, we'll see how it goes. So I'll, I'll, I'll try to build those three. The lake just formed because of the rainy days. And this lake just consists consist this. No. Consist means it's made up of the lake is consists of water and fish. I don't know. Uh, formed and consists are not synonyms. So there's the problem Layla. I don't know why you think the, the form and consist are synonyms. They're not even the same word which do native speakers might use in the case form or consist. Oh, these are not the same words. These are not synonyms. So you have to go to the dictionary. I don't, I don't know why you think they're the same word. We're not going to use, you're going to use form in a different way. You're going to use consists in a different way. You could talk, uh, uh, where agree is forming consists where there's close, near synonyms. No, they're, they're, they're in a similar family. They're cousins, but they're not brother and sister. What about homework check live stream? No, I'm not going to do any more homework check live streams. So with the daily English homework, I'm just going to make the videos and maybe, uh, maybe I might, but the focus on the focus on live streams on other channels is no more. Those, those were to get viewing hours for those channels to be monetized. Those channels are now monetized. Uh, so I will just focus on the videos, not the live streams.  So, you know, there's a simple idea, world news and vocabulary. I can just add those two things into one great lesson. So you can learn some, uh, world news and I can take the vocabulary out of there and give some fill in the blanks. There we go. It's one lesson, world news and vocabulary. Uh, Pallavi can't be here because she is banned. Yeah, I know that sleepwalker, but the Pallavi account is banned, not the cat account. So it is suspicious that cat comes in and asks, where's Pallavi? Where's Pallavi? Please don't Q&A from time to time. We need it. All right, Layla, I won't because you said don't. So I won't. Oh, what? She is banned? Why? Well, I think you know why Pallavi. Uh, people are banned for a reason. People are kicked out of WhatsApp groups for a reason. I've forgiven Pallavi a hundred times and I've banned her a hundred times. Uh, cat, if you're Pallavi, that's fine. That's fine. You can be here as cat. That's no problem. You're welcome here as cat because in my language, I don't care about your language. I care about English here. So what are you doing, Layla?  So why can't I use that in English? Well, I would say don't translate them. Just know what they mean in English and stop translating. That would be my solution to that problem. It's a translation problem, not an English problem. It's how you're learning those words. If you're learning those words through translating, then you're going to have conflict, not just with those words, hundreds of words. What about learning directly collocations instead of vocabulary as only words and their meanings? I'll think about it, Eunice. I'll try to, I will try to make an amazing lesson where we learn idioms, vocabulary. I'll try to make everyone happy. I think I have the experience, the skills to make an awesome lesson. And the question is when? Next Sunday, we'll see how it goes. How do native English speakers know if people are saying can or can't? Here, English teachers always use a British accent to do that. I don't like to mix the accents since I use the American one. I can be confusing among native speakers too, but you have clues. You have context.  You can guess from context. I can dance. I can dance. I can dance. I can dance. I can dance. It's difficult. It's difficult for native speakers. So do your best. Oh, no. I mean, please don't stop. No. Already decided. Stop. Don't do the Q&A's. I'm not Palavi. You know I asked about many people here. I don't know why you think that. Oh, okay. Cat. Okay. Cat is not Palavi. I think collocation. Collocations, that's proper pronunciation. Collocations are very important because they help us to figure out how to use them correctly. Yes, I would agree, Eunice, collocation is very important. I talked to Palavi in one of your live streams. You see that too. Okay. I don't translate them, but I want to know which is proper verb to use with lake. Both of them are proper to use with lake, but they have different meanings. So what do you want to say? Do you want to use form or do you want to use consist? What are you trying to express with that? Because you can use both of those because they have different meanings. They're not synonyms. What do you want to say? So is it correct way to use the lake form because of the rain? Yes, that is one way. That is how you use form. But usually we don't say lakes form because of rain. Lakes are usually permanent. So the the puddle, small puddle would be more appropriate. This puddle, let me put it on the white board here. The sentence, the puddle formed because of the rain. All right. So that sounds something the rain can create. Lakes are kind of created, you know, thousands of years ago and they just saw millions of years ago and they still remain. They're not not entirely formed by rain. I said puddle, P-U-D-D-L-E, not puddle, the dog, puddle, puddle. Let's practice that pronunciation. Poodle, I always say puddle, hug, poodle, and water formed by rain. Puddle, poodle, puddle. The poodle is in the puddle. What kind of video do you prefer to make? I prefer the video that gets views. So I'm a YouTuber. I have to focus on views more going in the future. So I will I will make videos that get watched that has to attract more viewers to the channel. So, you know, I'm not I need more motivation, Sama. I need more people here too. I need 100 Samas. If I had 100 students like you, I'd be very, very happy. The money puddle. Or I could say the puddle, puddle formed because of the poodle. That's funny. In my mind, that's funny. The puddle formed because of the poodle. Okay, Robert, I got it finally. The best word to use is pudding, pudding. The puddle formed because of the rain. The puddle formed because of the poodle. Do you think about making lessons not lives here? That's why I made Dayling's homework. To put my lessons on Dayling's homework and the IELTS insider and then here is just live live stream. So the purpose of this channel is live stream. That's the concept of this channel. And that's what it will do continuing forward. Livestreams do not grow as much as videos, but I have the Dayling's homework for the videos. All right. I'm going to end this live stream now. So I'll be back next week. I'll try out some new something we can learn and study and try to get more people here active. I'm figuring out the WhatsApp groups, things like that. You can see I'm already getting tired after one hour of making jokes about puddles and poodles. Could you please pronounce this word push chair? Push, there's two words there, push chair. You know push, you know chair. What's a push chair? Push chair. Push chair. What is it? British English. That's not American English. So that says a small here. This is what let's go big here. This is a push chair. It looks like a cart or baby. I don't know. Stroller. Yeah. American English stroller. So we I don't say push chair. Push chair. Push chair. Push chair. Push chair. Why is that difficult to pronounce? Push chair. Robin, I think many of us are often sometimes confused about pronunciation also. For example, the silent E rule in service engine. That is the final E. Yeah. Oh, nowhere. Hey, Eunice, no one is confused about that silent E at the end of a word. Who? I have never in over 20 years of teaching have ever heard a student say service A, engine A. There's no confusion about that silent E rule. You're talking about the end of the sentence, right? Because there's no other ease, service. What are you talking about, Eunice? No one ever is confused about the end E. Explain what you're talking about, Eunice. Okay, thank you. I got the, why are you sharing that with us, man? Embarrassing. Oh, I got the poodle joke. Thank you. Finally, someone has, I expect the dad to get the dad joke. The A to Z English podcast, the best joke ever. Yes, I agree. The A to Z English podcast is the best joke ever. All right. Hey, all right. Goodbye, everyone. Talk to you in the future.


We're now going to take a look at general conduction analysis. And so in order to do this, what we're going to do, we're going to start off with Fourier's law, which if you recall is the law that applies for analyzing conductive heat transfer. So if you recall Fourier's law, which is the conduction rate equation, what we said was that the heat flux, and now we looked at it for one dimension, so let's say it's in the x direction, is related to the thermal conductivity, the area through which that heat is flowing, and then the gradient of temperature in the dimension that we're looking at. So in this case the x direction. Now this equation is observed. It is not a derived equation, so it's observed from experiments. So it's what we call a phenomenological equation. So this equation, phenomenological, is derived from experimentation and from observations. Now the equation that we've shown here is for a one-dimensional case, and this equation can be extended into multiple dimensions. And so we can extend it to three dimensions, and let's write that out. And so what we can do, we can write the heat flux as a vector. And so here we can see we have the x component in the i direction, the y component in the j, and the z components in the k direction. And we can also relate this to Fourier's law. And so let's do that in this line. And what we'll do, we'll pull the minus k a, so the thermal conductivity multiplied by the projected area out of the brackets. And then what is left on the inside is just going to be the derivative with respect to the dimension. But instead of being an ordinary differential, what we'll now have is we're going to have partial differentials, because we're looking at a case where the temperature could be a function of multiple variables. So looking at this, we can rewrite this as the heat flux, which is a vector, is minus k the thermal conductivity times an area. And looking at what we have in the brackets here, if you review your vector, vector mathematics, you'll recall that one of the vector operators was this is the gradient operator. And it's the gradient of the temperature, temperature T, which is a scalar. So here the gradient and the gradient, if you recall, from your math courses is defined in the following way. And we would have whatever it is that we're operating on in brackets here. So that's the gradient operator. And that's essentially Fourier's law in three dimensions then for all three spatial dimensions. Now, what we can do, we can illustrate what is going on graphically. And so let's take a look at what that looks like. And we'll look at this in 2D. So let's imagine we have some object and we'll write it out as being x and y. And if we could go in and measure the temperature at every point in that object, and then plot up what we call isotherm. So those would be lines of constant temperature. We would get something like this. So if those were our lines of constant temperature, and if we were to take this field and we were to compute the gradient of this field, we would get lines that we call gradient lines. So I'll sketch those on and the gradient lines are going to be perpendicular to the isotherm lines. And if we were to take a particular point within this space, so let's take this point right here, and we'll call that point xy. And we were to evaluate the gradient at that point. Remember the gradient is going to give us a vector. So it's going to have direction. So the gradient is going to be in this direction here. And essentially what it is representing is the direction of the maximum change in temperature. So that would be the gradient of temperature. And if I keep drawing a line, okay, so we get that. Now, if you recall, and we know just from physical experience that heat always flows from a hot point to a colder point. And consequently, what we're seeing here is the gradient is showing us the direction in which the heat is flowing. And it's going to go from a region of high temperature to low temperature. And so the gradient is just simply showing us the direction that the heat is flowing in. And it happens to be that where you get the maximum change in temperature with position. And that's what the gradient operator is showing. So the heat is flowing in the direction of maximum temperature decrease. Now, if we want to evaluate the heat flux, remember the heat flux is a vector, because we had q is minus k, a gradient of t. And t is a scalar. This is going to give us a vector when we take the gradient operator of the scalar temperature field. So if you want to be able to evaluate the heat flux q, what this is telling us, usually you'll know your thermal conductivity, but we need to be able to evaluate the temperature field in order to get the gradient of the temperature field. So that is one of the main goals within heat transfer analysis, depending upon the problem. But usually for conduction, what we're after is to determine the temperature distribution within an object. So in order to proceed with this and start doing calculations, we need a way to be able to find out what the temperature is within an object. Okay. So we need a way to be able to find the temperature field. And so that's what we're going to do in the next segment. We're going to derive an equation. It's going to take a little bit of time. It's the heat diffusion equation. But this is the most general equation for conduction analysis. And it enables you to determine the temperature field in an object provided you know a lot of information about that object, mainly the boundary conditions, what the material is on the inside. But nonetheless, what we'll do will derive the heat diffusion equation. And with that equation, you can determine the temperature field. And from that, you can get heat flux and determine the flow of heat throughout an object.

I bet proper refractor Yuki Sonoda Alphatari 351 to 399 If it's anything like other first bowman's, it's gonna be crazy expensive I'm gonna just be like that now orange and red Kimmy Reichenan for Alfa Romeo Black and white ray wave Sebastian Vetzel Aston Martin refractor Fernando Alonzo with a dimple like a big ding in it I'll send a box to the Alpine spots Yeah, that's definitely not a bad move Joshua, especially because it's bowman anyway. So like It might just it'll probably just go regardless But yeah Not a bad move at all bowman will never go down. Yeah, we'll go down If anything you just sell it where you bought it for Is there been a bowman product go down? recently If you want in the past like like four or five years.  They have like what one or two? Aronda yeah, he's pretty good He's like anyone that maybe might be in this year like seriously Bradley Curtis me Lanzardo, maybe Fractor Max Verstappen nice there car number one Red Bull Who makes it seem Black and white ray wave alter a boat us alpha Romeo and our Red Sox because you're gonna be stacked this year They already have Bayo and Casas, and then they're gonna have Yoshida at some point.

I don't even know we had more that Joshua That must that must be one of our last cases of 2021 flawless football, right? Yeah We may have had like who I think one was supposed to go in the Supermixer, but they got less of a personal thing they got ripped So I think that might be our last one Magnuson refractor for Haas. All right, last one So no auto in this one Well, we did hit three autos in the previous we hit the autos in the previous three breaks, so It does not surprise me. We're beating the odds already. All right here it is How's it just get so far back there good luck everybody got a Lance stroll five of five on the patch auto He signed over like his face Patch auto Lance stroll Aston Martin congrats on the dynasty hit going to Danny you go five of five Lance stroll Really quick recap. We had purple Yuki Sonoda Mini diamond Jack Duhan purple checkered flag George Russell and Sebastian Vettel true green Christian Horner and a pink total wolf There's that Lance stroll again Auto right on his face strange strange Although there's I think that we pulled a stroll earlier and it was like here. It's like there Yeah, it was it was like honest. It was at an angle though strange. He was he must have just been yeah Yeah, let's see what works to see what sticks. I don't know either way congrats on the dynasty hit free Aston Martin Thanks again everybody on the Phoenix


there we go. Rob Moore teaches because he could do. Moore is the Titans wide receivers coach and if anyone doubts his credentials he can simply tell them to turn on the tape. Moore played wide receiver for a dozen years in the national football league. The Jets took him in the first round of the 1990 supplemental draft and he spent five years in Gotham before heading to Phoenix for seven years with the Cardinals. Moore caught over 600 passes for over 9,300 yards and 49 touchdowns. He was named to a pair of Pro Bowls and was once named all-pro. Oh and Rob Moore has coached wide receivers for a dozen years so when we asked Rob Moore to talk about Julio Jones we knew we found the very best person to discuss the seven-time Pro Bowler. Julio Jones is a great athlete. I've got great length. Phenomenal at tracking the deep ball. Got unbelievable range because of his length. Has long speed. Extremely competitive. A great teammate. And a future all-offender. I think one of the characteristics that make him most unusual is his ability to go from speed to power. When you look at him you watch him in the weight room see you see the weight that he throws around and you see his ability to be able to go from being a nimble fast quick guy to all of a sudden being powerful and explosive. It's really incredible to watch. Players that try to defend them you know they have a dilemma.  Do you play off where he can use his size and his length as separation at the top of routes. You know he can play bully ball. You know he can play the you know play that game where you want to play off me and give me space you know I could take advantage of that. You just kind of got to pick your poison man. Which one do you this one do you want to live and die with. When I first saw him I was just shocked at how long he was. When you look at his strides you know sometimes as coaches you give guys steps and yards. Well I mean he's got to be a yardage guy because his steps are abnormal compared to other guys. Now here's my favorite Julio Jones stat. In his 10 plus years in the NFL he has averaged 96 receiving yards per game. That's number one on the all-time list. Calvin Johnson is number two on that same list averaging 86 yards per game. Now when you consider the 100 plus year history of the National Football League that number is staggering. That's an incredible stat and I did not know that. I wasn't aware of that but really what that tells you is his ability to be explosive his ability to be able to catch and run with the football. Everybody has a tendency to think that you know God has a you know 90 yards or 100 yards and there's a bunch of big plays in there in terms of deep throws. He's a guy that can take his plant to distance you know he's a guy that's going to make you tackle him. That's what's so impressive about him is his size and his ability to impose his will on people. I think the most underestimated part of the game is Julio has a really vast knowledge of the game and a good understanding of spacing. He really has a great understanding of the big picture philosophy of each play that you try to run. You understand how he fits in that puzzle. He understands okay this we need him to do this so that this can work over here. He's willing to do that. You know some of these guys if they're not getting the ball they're disinterested. He's a good team player.


As-Salamu Alaikum Wr Rahmatullahi Wabarakatuh. Welcome to Ahkam SOS. The show that discusses the duties and practices of a Muslim in accordance with the rulings by his eminence, the Grand Ayatollah Sayyid Salih Shirazi May Allah Prolong his life. I am Muslim inshallah and joining me is Sheikh Ali Mahmash. As-Salamu Alaikum Sheikh Mahmash. As-Salamu Alaikum Wr Rahmatullahi. How are you Sheikh Mahmash? How are you? As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. As-Salamu Alaikum. The criteria and what makes you Salah stagnant if you pray in these areas. I wanted to ask you in regards to the opposite gender, because we're mainly focused on males, but when males and females come together and they have to pray is she acceptable for a sister to pray very close to a male. With regard to the praying of a female close to a male in the prayers, now we have two scenarios. The first scenario, if it's the Salah is prayed separately, not with the Jama'ah, in other words for Adah, so you prayed separately alone. And then you have the second scenario, which is the Salat al-Jama'ah. We begin with the second scenario, there's no way that a woman can pray in front of a man or group of men in the Salat al-Jama'ah, so the ladies should go back and pray behind the men. They can't be, let's say, in the first line of the Salat al-Jama'ah, all female, and the second and third are male, that's not allowed. So with the Salat al-Jama'ah, there's no way that she can go and pray in front of the men. With regard to the Furadah Salah and praying alone, so let's say that a husband and a wife, a sister and a brother, or a sister and her father, they want to pray in one room, let's say, and close to each other. What is the Hukum? With regard to this Hukum and rule, ulama have said that, some ulama, that if a male prays next to a female, be it a close relative or even a stranger, the Salat will be bother for both, to pray next to each other, Salat will be bother and void, and there must be at least roughly five meters distance, it's almost sixteen foot distance, so they can pray parallel or even the female can pray ahead of the men, but with this distance, otherwise they can't pray next to each other. That's the opinion of the ulama, or some of the ulama. However, he states in his Rasala that you are allowed to pray next to a female if you're a male or vice versa, and it's not wajib that you distance yourself from the female or vice versa, but it is makruh that a man prays next to a woman. Or the woman is ahead in the front of the man, just few, let's say, few inches, for example. That's makruh, but for the Sayyid, he says it won't make the Salat bother and void. You can't pray, so let's say the small room, husband and wife, they both stand next to each other and they perform the Salat, again, farada, separate in jama'a, and they begin together, reading the Surah and Hamd and so forth. So they can actually commence the Salat next to each other, but with kara'ah and dislike. But as I've said, other ulama might say also that this causes the Salat to be bothered, so the one goes back to his marja, and he checks. Otherwise the Sayyid allows it, but with being makruh and dislike. Thank you very much, Sheikh. Sheikh, what about places with mustahab to pray Salat? Does the Sayyid actually discuss and recommend for us to go to pray Salat in these places? Of course, the Sayyid mentions four main places that his mustahab to go and perform the Salat. So he begins with praying in the mosque of al-Majjid al-Haram in Makkah, where the Ka'ba is. So that is the first place to pray there, and followed by the Majjid al-Nabi, in Medina. And there is actually a hadith from the Prophet, with regard to praying in his mosque, in Medina. He said, praying in the mosque of the Prophet, in Medina is compared to 50,000 of Salat. Imagine if you pray two rak'ah outside Medina, let's say in London, you pray in two rak'ah. But if you pray them in the mosque of the Medina, of the Prophet, you get 50,000 of those rak'ah. So a huge, huge thawab and reward. Also, the third mosque is Majjid al-Kufa in Iraq, just close to Najaf city. And then, Majjid al-Aqsa, the Majjid of Betul-Maghdis in Jerusalem, Ahsanat. That's the fourth main mosque that his mustahab to pray there as well. And then the Sayyid says, the grand mosque of every city. So you begin to go to, for example, the mosques of the main, in a city, let's say in London, you have the grand mosque, or in Birmingham, for example, in Manchester, for example. And of course, the local mosques as well, and even the market mosque. So the thawab goes gradually down to these different types of mosques. Masha'Allah, Ahsanat Sheikh Khan is very, very inspiring. But what about the holy shrines of the Ahnawait? What about Karbala and Najaf? Does the Sayyid not mention anything there? Then the Sayyid goes and brings and details the reward for praying in these shrines. He says the Salah and the praying in the Haram of Imam Ali, peace be upon him, the commander of the Faithful, peace be upon him, is equal to 200,000 Salah, imagine. 200,000. Exactly. So we had 50,000 in Mecca, in Medina. Medina, yes. And now we've got 200,000 in Najaf. Exactly. Masha'Allah. And then he mentions that every rakah of Salah at the shrine of Imam Hussain, peace be upon him, in Karbala, every rakah, not the whole Salah. So the Salah is for rakah. Yes. So every rakah at the shrine of Imam Hussain, peace be upon him, is equal to the freeing of 1,000 slaves. Masha'Allah. And equals to 1,000 Hajj and 1,000 of Umrah, imagine. Masha'Allah. Great thawab. So imagine how the rewards of praying in these such places. And don't forget that Karbala land has a greater thawab and greater status in the sight of Allah than any other lands. We have narration of that. Yes.  Because on the day of judgment, the one needs Hassana Wahide. You know, you need that one reward in order to elevate you to higher levels of paradise. Hassan, Shaykh, Hassan Alayhim. I pray that Allah SWT gives you the tawfeeq and the ability to visit Aba Abdelah al-Hussain to his diyaar and insha'Allah, to pray the Salah, insha'Allah. Insha'Allah. And to the viewers as well, insha'Allah, you get the opportunity to go visit Karbala and be able to pray in the holy shrine of Aba Abdelah. Shaykh, what about for the sisters and for the ladies? Is it encouraged for them as well to go to the mosque and pray, or is it better for them to stay at home? Well, initially it's preferred for the woman, the mu'min woman, the pious mu'minah to stay at home and pray at home. But however, if she observes the hijab well and protects herself from the strangers, then of course it's better for her to go to the mosque and perform the prayer inside the mosque, especially with the Jama'a, in which there would be much higher and higher. So, yeah, I mean, it depends on the hijab. There is good hijab, I mean, observed well, then it's better to go to the mosque. The hijab is poor, then no, let her stay at home and pray at home, which is better. You're saying, you know, if the hijab is not good, she should stay at home. I do believe that there is a ruling in terms of if you live close proximity to the mosque, if you're a neighbour to the mosque, what about in that case then? Should she force herself to go to the mosque and pray, or should she still stay at home? Well, regarding the ladies, as I've said, be it a nearby mosque or far away mosque, the hijab is the axis which plays, you know, with regard to the ruling of the woman to go out. If the hijab is well, then she can go and it's better for her, of course, to attend the Jama'a and pray Jama'a. But with regard to neighbouring the mosque in overall, and especially for the men. Now, we have a hadith which says, and Ali, peace be upon him, he says, The Imam, peace be upon him, says, the Salah won't be that highly rewarded unless the one prays it inside the mosque, the one who is closed and neighbours at the mosque. So it's better for him to go and pray inside the mosque. But the Imam mentions the conditions and exceptions. He says, Unless he has an excuse, he can't go out. You know, there are kids to take care of, for example. Or that person has an illness, paralyzed, disabled, for example. In this case, yeah, that's fine. Otherwise, it's better, more encouraged, more rewarding for this person to go and pray inside the mosque, rather than staying at home and praying at home. Last, Salah doesn't mean the Salah will be not accepted, no. The reward will be less if you pray at home, and there's no excuse, no issues. So if we relate this hadith to the sisters, should they go to the mosque then, if they live close? Of course, if they live close, and they observe they have a job well, well, it's better, as the head mentions, in the previous mas'ala, that's better for them to go and pray, even the Jama'a as well. Yes, of course. Yes, definitely. And also the hadith continues, I didn't mention all of the hadith. Then someone asks the Imam, Fakila, O commander of the faithful, who is the neighbor of the mosque? The Imam says, whoever listens to the adhan, to the call of the prayer, so in that time, well, that's loud speakers. So the mu'adhan goes on the minar and he says, and he does the adhan. So whoever listens surrounding the masjid, he's the neighbor of the masjid. But if somebody is far away and he doesn't hear the adhan, then he's not part of this hadith, which means the neighbor of the masjid. But with these loud speakers, would they be the same? Again, this hadith was in that time which there were no loud speakers. So this goes back to the marja, to see if the marja, if he says the same applies or not, and that's another issue. Ahsan, thank you very much, sheikhna. And I believe we would encourage our brothers and sisters to actually attend the masjid, regardless if you can hear the adhan or not. That's all we have time for, sheikhna. So thank you very much for your involvement. And thank you very much for answering my questions today. And thank you for all the viewers at home for joining us on Iqam SOS. And insha'Allah, you now know that you'll be able to go to any mosque and that you'll be gaining more reward for your salah. And insha'Allah, remember us in your da'a. And insha'Allah, we'll be seeing you in Karbala, insha'Allah, under the dome of Aba Abd al-Hussain. Until next time, Salamu alaykum, rahmatullahi wa barakatuh. Al-Fatiha.


Hello everybody and welcome to another hobby cheating video and today we're going to talk about universal shadow colors. So sometime back we had talked about universal highlight colors with our friend Sunny Skin Tone there, but this week we're going to talk about universal shadow colors. And much like with Sunny Skin Tone or a bright Caucasian flesh tone, you can highlight any color with that. And today we're going to show you how you can shade any color with one color. I think it's an often times a habit that people will just go to a darker version of an existing color, but that makes your fig less interesting. So today we're going to talk about colors you can use to shade anything in the same way that Sunny Skin Tone is nice and bright and warm. And we can use that as a nice warm highlight color for any of our existing hues, right? Because it has this feeling of being out in the sun in a warm day, which is where we tend to put most of our figures. We tend to show them, especially our army stuff outside, right? So they tend to be out in the bright sun in warm light. That means that you have cold shadows. A nice simple rule of thumb is if you've got a warm highlight, you've got a cold shadow. That leads us to Payne's Gray. Now this is Daler Rowney. This is FW Ink. Payne's Gray. I consider it one of the best investments you can make in the hobby. And that will give you a nice universal cold shadow. There are other options. Here I've got a nice Ellendil Violet, as well as a Gothic Crimson. Violet is a nice deep purple color. Deep purples can also work, so if you like that feeling a little better, it'll be a little bit of a warmer shadow, but it can still work. And it will work with basically any color in the color wheel, any hue. You can use a nice deep violet for it, as long as it's deep enough. You may need to mix just a little bit of black into it. Something like Gothic Crimson here from Reaper. This is a great super deep red. There is a little bit of blue in here, obviously that's the Crimson influence. But it also works well as a warm shadow color. I'm just going through these to show you that you've got options. The trick with warm shadows is those tend to work better if you have figs with cold highlights. If you have people in icy settings or something like that. But today we're going to focus on Payne's Gray. And here I've got the shields from the previous time when we did our Universal Highlights and we've got a couple new ones. And we're just going to go through and we're going to take a look at how we can shade everything out. So let's get a little bit of that Payne's Gray. I've got one of all of my primaries over on a palette, nothing too crazy, just a red and orange, a yellow, green, blue, and purple. These are all from Chimera, same thing. I'm going to start by just setting some of the normal color here. So this is just straight red. And when we lay down that nice straight red, you see that Chimera red really has a wonderful bright, intense, highly pigmented sheen. So it's great. If we work in a little bit of the Payne's Gray, then what we can get, because the blue hits the red, it's going to make a sort of natural purple, a natural shadow color. What's great about Payne's Gray is because it has a little bit of blue and a little bit of black, and it's quite dark, it ends up being this wonderful, desaturated shadow color. And you can see how that just forms a wonderfully natural shadow. Payne's Gray is really amazing because one of the challenges I've always had in doing natural-looking shadows is trying to figure out what is that shadow actually doing? What is it actually? You look at like skin in shadow or something like that, and like what color is that? Well, usually it's that tone with a little bit of blue and black infused in. So here with orange, and again it's going to work great with orange because orange is going to hit the blue part, the blue being complementary. It's going to create a nice natural shadow to it. So there you can see I worked just a little bit in, and we get a really soft subtle shadow, but I can also go stronger, right? So in all of these cases you might be asking, Vince, what's the ratio you're mixing at? Well, I'm not really mixing in any particular ratio. As usual, I don't rely on recipes, but I will tell you that it's probably two or three to one of the paint to the paint's gray. But I'll warn you in advance that's going to vary highly. In this case, because Chimera is so highly pigmented, I'm able to not use much of the ink. That is to say I can go like three to one. If I had a very weak color, like if I was using something from Citadel, I might need to go to something like five or six drops of the paint to one drop of the paint's gray. So here we do the same thing with green. Works really well, nice and easy, nice dark green shadow. That one's just a slam dunk infusing a deep blue black into green. It's just an easy cold shadow, same with the blue and the purple. So once again, and here, actually, what we're going to do is we're going to kind of flip the script just a little bit so we can really see these colors. Because as it is now, I'm just placing the base colors down because the these two colors are very naturally transparent, purple and blue. So they show the under shade really strongly. So to really show just the strong shadow, we're going to invert it here on this one. I'm going to turn the lit part that I had, you know, sort of zenith old. We're going to turn that into the shadow just because that will really help actually show the effect. If I work dark on dark, it's going to be very hard for you to notice the shadow difference. So instead, let's go ahead and set down both tones, a little purple, a little blue, OK. And the trick with them is that they are you can see how they are so translucent. They're letting a lot of that initial color underneath through, right? And that's going to be great for showing off our shadow. So now let's take a little bit of the Pains Gray, which, remember, is a dark blue black and mix into the blue. It shouldn't be too surprising to know that, yeah, this one is a slam dunk. This one's easy, right? Very easy shadow. You see, I went quite heavy there and then that's OK. I can feather out that edge and we're good to go. The trick with Pains Gray is that on blue, what you're mostly going to see is the black because the blue itself is already being covered by the shade underneath. So it will feel a lot more black when you put it over blue. Same with purple, actually, because anything that has that that strong blue component in it, like the violet here, you're going to feel like that black is a lot stronger. OK. Whereas if you look at a color like orange or red, the blue will come out a little stronger and you'll get a bit more of a purplish tone. Pains Gray is really a great universal shadow color. It can be used on all your your normal hues. Now, I hear what you're saying, fancy skip yellow. I did that intentionally because I wanted to show you the main tones. Yellow is a little bit trickier. You can certainly do it. We'll show you in a moment. If you don't have Pains Gray ink, you can use something like Secret Weapon Tire Black here or there is a color called Abyssal Blue from Scale 75 that's very similar. Or you can just take a very deep blue color and mix it with a dark black to get this kind of an effect. But I think the ink is worth the investment for most people.  But I use it in more or less every project. It's an easy universal shadow color. It really makes your shadows feel naturalistic. That's the advantage. When you're working with something like oranges or reds or, you know, I didn't do it here, but skin tone, it can often be hard to get natural feeling shadows. But that Pains Gray just feels like a shadow. And here you can see how the blue and the yellow really comes out. Like I'm just using a little bit of it. This is mixed at like one to eight or something. And but you can see how we get this wonderful natural shadow. It just looks like that yellow is literally put out of the light. And that's what you get. So there you go. That's universal shadow colors. If you like that, give it a like. Subscribe for more hobby cheating in the future.
