So did you guys know that within power world there were four Legendary powers powers actually classed as a legendary Variance today guys in this complete guide I showed a location of each and give you tips and tricks and how you can actually catch these a legendary Super old P Pals but before we go any further guys I'm giving away a couple of copies of this game to being with a chance of winning simply drop a like on the Video leave a comment down below make sure you are subject those notifications turned on and winners will be announced at the end of this week Good luck everybody Okay, so there are four Super Ultra legendary powers in this game actually considered Legendary this isn't something I've just made up and you can see these on screen now I've actually went out last night It took me about four hours to tame and catch each and every one of them and these are those are legendary Pals we have the jet rag on which is an Ultra incredible super fast flying man dragon who just looks on real Then guys you have for a stallion which again It's just like some amazing looking mythical horse beast type thing Which you wouldn't want to mess with but pretty cool And then we have two powers are actually found in the same location We have the necromus, which is a dark type looking amazing and we have paladias, which is a neutral type Which looks even better people. Oh, yes, these are absolutely incredible. You don't want to miss these now These are found in specific locations on the map. They are all level 50s You will have to come prepared But let's get into it guys and firstly we'll start with jet raggan, which is just unreal So jet raggan this dragon like flying man is probably the best pal in this game Considered that by many anyway, so this thing once you capture it becomes a man's a flouable man We can actually shoot missiles on its back and yeah, it's Unbelievably fast people unbelievably fast fastest in the game without a shadow of a doubt So upon you come into this specific area, which you can see on screen now guys It's ways located you will see him and he is such a hard time. He's super fast He's super powerful. So you need to come up here stacked up It spawns in this one part of the map only and again, it is a level 50 and he hits super hard You will also sponge a lot of damage and will require you to be kind of patient Now the area is also hot. So bear in mind. You will need that heat resistant armor It's a must up here also on the feet short of legendary spheres We'll be good enough to catch this dude and let's lock is truly on your side I can't tell you how many times I wasted spheres on this dude Legendaries and I just could not catch him while it will also say guys is when it comes to trying to catch this dude Stay away from the sides of the cliff because for me He fell off a couple times and died also people upon you getting him to a really low health It seems as though unless it's a bug You only have so many attempts in capturing him and then he would just fall dead on the floor This happened to me a couple times too. So you just bear that in mind It might be a bug hopefully it's a bugging that happened to you But it was definitely happening to me and truly piercing me off Also keep in mind that jet wagon is a dragon type So bringing powers of the ice element will be best as the dragon type powers in the game are weak Against ice element powers so anything you have of a high level that ice element bring that dude up here to fight this dude For you also guys you can use rifles at a range This may help your cases plenty of things to man on top of like our drugs and things where a lot of his attacks Won't actually be able to get you so if your powers on the floor fighting him You can be up top with that one shot rifle like I love and try and take his damage down this way But again be warned.  Yes, you need to have great powers But in regards to being stacked out in one particular way, that's definitely not the case. That's for sure Okay, so we're going to move on to Frostallion guys now this awesome looking mythical horse type beast is Like all the other legendaries that we're going to cover today is a level 50 But this one is amazing too. Now this one is located top left of the map as you can see right here on the screen The area is super cold So you will need that cold resistant armor with you otherwise you're just gonna freeze to death Again, if you plan on catching this thing legendary spheres will definitely help you in that regard But I think I may have caught this guy with an ultra ball instead of a legendary I can't really remember but you see that for each on the screen now So this pal also hits very very hard and will sponge a lot of damage So you will have to be patient trying to catch this one now Frostallion is weak against fire element pals So also bear that in mind fire type powers may be the difference in you catching this thing or not Also people if you don't bring a mounted fire power and you plan on just a release in your pals to fire team While you attack from a different angle There are many obstacles you can climb on and hide behind while your power gets to work here Making this in my opinion probably the easiest legendary on this list to catch But yet Frostallion a great looking mythical beast a legendary pal they don't want to miss out on So do what you got to do guys and come and catch this thing So the final two legendary pals are actually at the same location They're called necromus who is a dark type and then we have Palladius who is a neutral type But both are ground mounted so they will not actually fly around so it makes it a little easier in that regard But they are found in the desert region area seen on screen now This area is extra hot so again coming up here You will need that heat resistant armor as well as well as pals who have your back Now what I will say is you clearly know you need to be prepared to get these dudes But because they both fight you at the same time I'd actually recommend guys you coming up here towards that nighttime because when it comes nighttime One of these actually falls asleep Meaning you can fight one at a time if you come in the daytime odds are unless you can separate them You'll be fighting them both at the same time which makes catching them a little harder But if you come up at nighttime guys and you plan on doing this make sure you also bring that cold resistant armor Too because it gets really cold up here also remember So you probably will be skipping in and out and that armor just to match the day and night Cycle but if you can separate them that's probably the best way of doing it fighting them both at the same time It's so difficult. I mean they ain't a spongy I don't hit as hard as the frost alien and the jet wagon But considering there's two here at the same time it kind of equals out. So yes come up at night One of them will fall asleep. You can probably then just take one down to a low half and capture it And when the other wakes up do what you gotta do there So the powers himself necron must be in a dark type power. He's weak against dragon type powers So that could really help you here also Palladius is weak against dark type powers So again, that also helps you out now Don't believe there's a dark dragon type in this game if there is let us know down below to help other people out But hey can bring five powers anyway Just make sure you bring a dark type and a dragon type if you have them in your Possession now coming up here with the intention of catching both is a goal You'll have fun trying to achieve trust me It's exactly what I did and it wasn't the easiest. It was a challenge. I actually enjoyed so yes People do what you got to do and come and grab these final two legendary powers Also, people do not forget that the powers I have covered today will respawn like after a day cycle in game So if you miss out on them the first time let's say you accidentally kill one of them or kill both of them Or they take you out you can keep trying to capture these there's no limit and how much they will respond So bear that in mind guys, but yes there we have it for amazing all people Legendary locations come and get these things people I have got a funny feeling in a future update. Maybe they will make it a little more difficult I think at current time you can stack up quite easily early on I say early on you ain't getting these unless you're like Level 40 plus but you can stack yourself up fairly easy probably easier than they want so yeah There may be a buff coming to these soon. So yeah look out for that So get these while you can guys, but there we have it guys if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out Feel like what you see I want to see more be sure to subscribe and hopefully my beautiful people I will see you on that next one


Of all the legacies of India, among the most fascinating are her various classical dance forms. Connoisseurs believe that one lifetime is not enough to master even one of them. Against such a backdrop, what is it that makes Sonal Man Singh arguably one of the greatest exponents of Indian classical dance? There is no difference between dance and life. And therefore Nataraj, the Shiva, is the symbol of the cosmic dance, the particles, the atoms, every bit of space is dancing constantly. Her mastery over not one but various classical dance forms and her boundless creative energy have resulted in the choreography of outstanding issue-related themes. Sonal Man Singh, a true Indian legend. It is said that one can spend a lifetime trying to perfect Indian classical music and still merely touch a drop in this vast ocean. But when one inherits it from five generations of legendary maestros, the drops add up to become, if not an ocean, at least a joyous rivulet. One that flows forth from the maestro's soul to immerse the hearts of listeners across cultures in divine bliss. Such is the effect of Ustad Amjad Ali Khan's Sarut on audiences worldwide. The list of the Ustad's awards reads like a veritable catalogue accolades in the field of music. However, his greatest rewards are the unique vibes as performances have always created with his listeners. This is Ustad Amjad Ali Khan, an Indian legend whose genius no words can describe. India has always been a farming society, dependent on the sweat and toil of the farmer. And yet, till just a few decades back, the farming fraternity was an exploitative lot. Two things changed all that. First, the green revolution and second, the white revolution or operation flood. Fifty years ago, the pork dairy farmer found an unlikely messiah in the incarnation of a mechanical engineer from Michigan State University. He is Dr. E. Corian and starting from Anand, a small village in Gujarat, India. He taught the dairy farming community the power of collective effort. Operation flood really began when Dr. Corian set up the National Dairy Development Board in 1970. When you work for those who are less fortunate than you, and when they pay you a salary, which is several times their own income, then you become good to serve them. And that is the greatest reward of all for Dr. V. Corian, the milkman of India, a true Indian legend. Think of the hallowed precincts of Oxford and Harvard, and one can hardly be expected to envision the plight of the starving millions. And yet it is here that one man painstakingly evolved path-breaking theories on welfare economics that would be a catalyst in enhancing the quality of lives of the poorest of the poor. Not surprising, he is an Indian. Professor Amartya Sen, a Nobel Prize winner in economic sciences, a caring philosopher. Professor Sen has utilized the proceeds of the Nobel Prize to start a trust each in India and neighboring Bangladesh. The trust in India is education. The three objectives outlined for both the trust are one, reduction of illiteracy and lack of school education, two, reduction of lack of basic health care, and three, reduction of gender inequality. This is Professor Amartya Sen, Nobel Prize winner in economics, a champion of the impoverished, a true Indian legend. Narayan Muthi, founding father, chairman and CEO of Infosys Technologies, the mega 115 billion US dollar ITM prior with the world's largest single software facility. What makes him truly great is his unique humanitarian commitment that puts community about self. I'm what you would call a compassionate capitalist which means I'm a capitalist in mind and a socialist at heart. My aim in life is to leverage technology, leverage the power of the Indian talent to create wealth not just for Infosys people but for the entire country. This is Narayan Muthi, lover of humanity, a true Indian legend.


The war continued for two more years, and then it was over. Anne-Marie's family was at home, sitting and thinking about the war. Anne-Marie asked her father, Can you tell me more about Lee's? What happened? How did she die? And her dad said, OK, I'll tell you. If you're curious to know what happens, go ahead and read.


Okay, it's six o'clock. I would like to call the Committee of the Whole meeting to order. Alderman Hanna, will you please take the roll? Born. Here. Foulk. Excused. Guesha. Excused. Heidemann. Here. Kittlesen. Here. Cleyunus. Here. Manny. Here. Meyer. Here. Montemure. Here. Rindflash. Here. Van der Wiel. Here. Verhasen. Here. Wongerman. Unexcused. Thank you, Alderman Hanna, Men. Heidemann. Yeah, I know. Too many. Hanna, will you all please rise as we say the Pledge of Allegiance? I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. Thank you. Moving on to number four on our agenda will be communication number 4708, document 1425, from October 15th, 2007. It's a submitting a communication from older person Jim Born regarding an article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel entitled, Taxes Are Killing Us, It's Time to Reinvent Government. Alderman Born, would you? I'll make a motion to file and then if we go into discussion if there's a second. We have a motion and a second to file under discussion. Thank you, Madam Chair. I brought this article forward back in October and in October it was kind of timely because at the time the article was in the Journal Sentinel, the city was in the process of reviewing its employee health plan for 2008. The gentleman that wrote the article is Bill Nazgovicz. He's the President of Heartland Advisors Incorporated, a Milwaukee-based investment management firm. And what motivated him to write the article was a report that came out from the Wisconsin Taxpayers' Alliance and the gist of the article was that I'll just read part of it. Wisconsin Taxpayers' Alliance has left me so discouraged I felt compelled to make a prediction. If we don't act boldly to reform the way our public sector spends money, Wisconsin will see an accelerating flight of talent and capital. And I also might add probably also retirees choosing to retire elsewhere. The report reveals that our state and local government employees receive health insurance, pensions, and other benefits worth 50% more than those of their counterparts in the private sector. While the typical employee working for a business had annual benefits worth $8,109 in 2005, the typical government employee got a package worth $12,171. And that richer benefit package is not offset by lower pay. In the vast majority of government jobs, salaries are virtually the same as the private sector, with some public sector workers like those involved in health care or education making up to 40% more than their private sector counterparts. We're talking huge money here. If public sector spending on benefits were at the private sector level, our state and local governments would be saving close to $2 billion by now. Incidentally, the structural deficit for the 2009 state budget, depending on whose math you believe, is now between $900 million and $2.3 billion. So, you know, that $2 billion that state and local governments would be saving with more competitive benefit packages would go a long way to closing that deficit. And also, the problem is only getting worse. Benefit costs have been rising almost 20% faster in Wisconsin's public sector than in the private sector, according to the Alliance report. And I'm really happy to see that the city of Sheboygan, when the health insurance committee was meeting, has taken steps to save the city taxpayers if all goes well with the wellness program, about $1.2 million in health care costs for 2008. I also want to thank Alderperson Kittleson and the wellness committee for their efforts to get the wellness program up and running for city employees. It's crucial that we have a huge buy-in by city employees to hopefully realize the $1.2 million in potential savings. Also, in the next contract negotiations, which are a ways off yet, the city will need to have their employees pay a greater portion of their health care insurance premiums that reflects more of what the private sector is paying. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Just for our common knowledge, when I came on the council back in 01, I picked up a report that was a statewide report, and basically that report summarized accelerating costs in the state over the previous 10 years. And there were three driving factors behind those increases that were beyond the inflation rate. They dealt with the cost of our roads. We have more miles of paved roadway per citizen than any other state in the union. I don't know if we all know that, but as a biker, I love it as a citizen we pay for it. Secondarily, prisons and their costs, they accelerated incredibly in that decade, ending at about 2000. And the third factor was schools. In that report, they also noted that a key differential between ourselves and the sister state, Minnesota, in the costs of government, noted that they have many fewer governmental units than we do. Thus, we're duplicating costs in many ways beyond what our sister state is. So just for our public knowledge, those were conclusions from about 2001. Thank you. Any further discussion? Alderman Berhassel. Thank you, Madam Chair. I just wanted to concur. I think it was an excellent article, and I think it's something we all should keep on our desk all year long. In my firsthand experience, I've got a number of neighbors in my neighborhood who are moving out. And the sole reason unsolicited is because of the taxes, the cost of living here in the city of Sheboygan. Again, it's unsolicited information coming towards me. So I think that just pounds it home for me. Many of you have talked to me about taxes, realized that I've presented studies that the city of, I believe it was Kenosha put out, they do an annual study, and Sheboygan consistently ranks in the top one, two, three, or four. The most recent study puts us at number one for the highest tax burden on our citizens here in Sheboygan County area. And again, that includes all the taxing entities, not just the city, but it's something to keep in perspective. I think as government officials, sometimes we shield ourselves from the true pain that exists out there, whereas a private entity feels the pain they have to react in some fashion. And being an ultimate now for the last year and a half, I don't get that same sense, and it's not a criticism. I think that's part of the government system, but I just want to point that out. I think the difference between the private sector and the governmental sectors, I think we need to react when things get tight, truly react. And some of the things that we've done here in the last six months with healthcare and so on, I think are good examples of that. I think we just need to keep doing that, and keep doing that, and keep doing that time after time. Thanks. Thank you. Olderperson Kittleson. Thank you, Madam Chairman. Just to let people know that our Wellness Committee is meeting every Friday at 9 o'clock, and we've been making some really good progress. I just want to let everyone know that it is a work in progress. It's going to take some time because there's so much information, so many pieces to put together to all of this, but it's very, very exciting, and I think it's very doable, and something that, as Olderperson Bourne says, that everyone will need to buy into, but I think they will be able to buy into. We're going to make it a workable program and a fun program, and something that is the way of the future. Companies are going that way to help lower insurance costs, and we have to look at it. It is the way of the future, so just know that we're here and working very hard to get that program off and running. Thank you. Thank you, Olderperson Kittleson, and I do agree that this is the wave of the future. Not only is this a change in mindset for employees, and like you said in the private sector, a lot of companies are going to these wellness programs also, and not only will it be a cost savings to the insurance companies and the city, it will also be a benefit to the employees because they will become healthier, and their lives will be better. Thank you. Any further discussion? Seeing none, all in favor of the motion to file? Say aye. Aye. Chair votes aye. Opposed? Motion carries. Moving on to item number five, RO number 439-0708, Council documents 1823 by City Clerk from December 17, 2007, submitting a communication from Olderperson Jim Bourne along with an article from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel entitled, Church Has a Gift for City. And would you care to make a motion on this? I'll make a motion to file, Madam Chair. Second. We have a motion and a second to file. Under discussion. Thank you, Madam Chair. This article was in the Journal Sentinel back a couple of months ago, and back about two years ago, Mayor Tom Barrett in Milwaukee sent out an appeal to the nonprofit community in Milwaukee to ask for them to make some voluntary contributions in lieu of taxes to help fund some of their city services like fire protection, police protection, and public work services. And this went out to the hospitals, the senior housing committee, the benevolent senior housing community, the YMCA's, and also churches. And after two years, the people that have stepped up to the plate to make contributions, with the exception of just a couple, have been churches in Milwaukee. And this article refers to Emmanuel Presbyterian Church who sent the city of Milwaukee an unsolicited check for $2,500. Now, the reason, you know, that I think this is kind of interesting is that not only, well, in Milwaukee and all over Wisconsin, you have nonprofit hospitals that are multi-multi-million-dollar operations. And here, a church and probably a small congregation takes the initiative to send the city of Milwaukee $2,500. The ones that have been stepping up to the plate down in Milwaukee are probably the nonprofits that at least can afford to do it. But yet, when they got this letter from the mayor, they took it upon themselves to scrape up some money and send it to the city of Milwaukee. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the city of Sheboygan got an unsolicited check from one of the hospitals here in Sheboygan for $100,000 and say, we really appreciate the fire police and public services that you're providing. Why don't you use this to fund a couple of police officers or a couple of paramedics or buy a couple of some new equipment for Mr. Bittner's Public Works Department? These are the heavy hitters, but unfortunately, they're not stepping up to the plate. Now, give you a couple of examples of larger nonprofits who are helping out their communities, a thriving financial, which used to be aid association for Lutherans. I'm not sure they may have moved their corporate office up to Minneapolis, but when they were in Appleton for years, they were paying the city of Appleton $350,000 to $450,000 a year in lieu of taxes just to be good corporate citizens. And they didn't have to really do that. They were a benevolent insurance organization. The Indian tribe that runs the casino up in Green Bay has been paying the village of Ashwabanan around $400,000 a year for the last number of years, again, to fund the services up there for the village, the fire, the police, and the public works. Our city assessor, David Lutsky, is in the process of reviewing the tax-exempt status of Sheboygan's tax-exempt properties. Many of the property tax exemptions are decades old, and they really haven't been looked at. And the review that Mr. Lutsky is doing will determine whether the tax-exempt organization still qualify for a four-partial exemption. Now, don't get me wrong, the churches and all of the rest of the nonprofits do wonderful, wonderful work in the communities. But to give you an example, these are state statistics. The average hospital in the state of Wisconsin contributes between 1% and 3% of their total patient revenue, which is multimillion dollars, between 1% and 3% of their total revenue to charitable care in the community.  But so far in Wisconsin, the legislature has not seen fit to means test a property tax exemption. In other words, is a nonprofit doing at least the amount of good in the community as what they would if they were paying taxes on that property. So that's something that I've been working behind the scenes on for many years after serving on a legislative council committee back in the late 80s and early 90s to try to have state government means test some of these property tax exemptions. Again, many of these nonprofits do excellent work in the community, but especially some of the big ones like the hospitals and the YMCA's are they really doing enough. So that's why I brought it forward just to bring to light the fact that we have hundreds of exempt properties and is a Choi Boygen and if we were getting something from these nonprofits, it would certainly make it a lot easier at budget time to try to balance our budget or to do a little more for the police department fire protection or the public works department. Thanks. Thank you. Any further discussion? Need none? All in favor of a motion to file? Lee, aye. And I believe that puts us down to item number six, which I would like a motion to adjourn. So move. So the motion was taken to adjourn all in favor. Aye. Thank you for coming.

Great, ladies and gentlemen, it is a great pleasure to introduce our next speaker to you. And Professor Kiesli Belsen comes to us from the University of Iceland. Kiesli is a professor of anthropology, and he has been fascinated by two particular aspects of tuneology in Iceland. The first is the book of Icelanders, which was an amazing online tool that connected all the various pedigrees of Iceland, many of which go back to about 900 AD. And the second aspect of genealogy in Iceland that has really captured the imagination of a lot of people is decode me, and the fact that they actually tested virtually the entire population of Iceland, certainly a very, very good proportion of them. And today, Kiesli is going to talk to us about Hans Jonathan, about reconstructing the genome of a Caribbean mineral slave, and as well as that, the book of Icelanders decode me and the parallels between Iceland and Ireland and the way that we approach genealogy. So this is going to be a fascinating lecture. Ladies and gentlemen, please give a big welcome to Kiesli Belsen. Thank you very much. I'm here to be invited to speak about my issues. The project that I'm talking about is part of a larger project under the umbrella of citogen, which is funded by the European Research Horizon 2020. And there are several of us here who participate in this citogen project, Identity, Citogen, Chimchi, and Nationhood in the post-genome era. So this is my theme. I'm basically talking about Iceland in one way or another. Iceland is a small country, an island, and Ireland can be used with your feet. The Republic of Ireland has 14 times the population of Iceland, I think. And the smaller you have the scale, the more easy it is maybe to flesh out some issues. And I'm speaking about genealogies, DNA, and personal names, I think. So these are the themes, naming, practices, surnames and after names and other forms of naming. The visualization of genealogies and personal genomics, you know more about that than I do. These are the genealogies, the book of Icelanders, and the issue of blackness in the North, in Central Asia, in Iceland. And at the end I would show a brief trailer from a documentary about a guy named Hans Jonathan, who was a Caribbean slave who settled in Iceland in 1802. So here's the geographical context. Iceland was settled by Norths and the people from the cryptids in the Scottish Isles and in Ireland. And DNA research shows that the main TNA is typically from Western Norway, when the Litho-Country or the female contribution is typically or heavily from Ireland and the British Isles. The Norths went westward in the 9th or 10th century to Iceland and went to Greenland and down south to Lansometer, at least, and there was some speculation early last century that the Norths had mixed with the Inuit. And so the Icelandic genome could be tricky-wide if there's any evidence to this. I organized a project with a biological anthropologist to study the Inuit genome, although I'm speaking about Iceland, and I'm squeezing in Inuit because it's interesting in several ways. And this is a small community-hentered space in Brunabit and Caracas with only 1,500 inhabitants. And it's somewhere here, part of the Canadian state. And in order to be able to do our biological genetic study, we had to negotiate with elders in the Inuit community because they are the informer power, and we had to present what we wanted to do and again results afterwards. And this was quite interesting, of course, with respect to the protocols, the ethics of research. But here is my colleague, Adnan Elkaton, who works both in Articulture Ethics in Reykjavík and in my department in anthropology. And he's presenting the results to the representatives of the elders in this tiny community. And it was interesting for many reasons. For one thing, the Inuit decreased that there was not a chance of evidence to the statement that there was a Norse mixture. They would cure Inuit, but nothing to do with Scandinavia. And secondly, it was interesting how difficult it was to explain DNA and genetics to these people who had probably no formal schooling after the age of 10. And here's my colleague trying to explain to them. But it was an interesting communication. And we learned, the anthropologists, that the Inuit thought of relationship very differently from the Western or Euro-American science point of view. For the Inuit, naming is the avenue into relationship. Because when children are born, they receive a name from their parents and their kin and neighbors and friends. And these sets of names that the individual requires form in the Inuit understanding the personality of the child and the life course. So it's an interesting contrast. In three months, we should take it for a fact that relationship and kinship is totally based on DNA. For these people, kin and relationships is very different. Also, we might take a look into history. This is a medieval representation of kinship, of a family. And it's a beautiful painting from the 15th or 16th century. It shows a lineage. The roots of the tree are in the soil. And then the branches spread out with different ancestors. And the tree is a common metaphor. You see it on the whole way. Family is tree. But we don't necessarily have to look at relationships or kinship in terms of tree. There are other metaphors historically. And also from anthropology, we know that for a fact. And interestingly, in the middle ages, there was a raging theological debate about trees like that. Because some of the theological experts thought it was degrading to have the roots in the messy, murky soil. And also they inverted the tree to make the roots closer to the heavens and the gods. This is a modern construction of a genealogical tree. It's an asthma tree for an Icelandic family, for an Icelandic lineage. And then the generations fan out. And the dark spots are the persons with asthma, diagnosed with asthma. And what the eco does is a look for the genetic signatures of asthma. But the image itself is appealing. And it happens to have been a kind of informal local for eco-genetics. Lots of Icelanders wear t-shirts with this image on. Now, person of genomics. He was the launching of the Project 23MB in New York City in 2008, I think. You know a lot about these projects. And I won't dwell on it. But this was called the Street Party in the New York Times. So it made me reflect on sticking images and stuff like that from years ago. And deco-genetics in Rayfield had a similar project called Decode Me. And in fact it was the first project of the kind. It's not an operation anymore, but it was quite an interesting project. And of course I signed that as an anthropologist. And I was promised two things. Information about, I don't know, 40 or 50 conditions and diseases. The probability of getting asthma for instance. And also an opportunity to look into my ancestry and the death of my family tree. And it was quite interesting in several ways. This was 10 years ago. And for instance I have no doubt about first reaction. And a chance of Alzheimer's less than the other. And of course this is based on reference populations and available medical studies at the time. And then there's ancestry. My ancestry is birthed in foremost European. But interestingly, second the Southwest Asian. And no one has been able to explain this to me. Not even the experts who created this database. So it's still a mystery in the family. And this is the European aspect. The second connection, strongest connection, getting the reference populations. Here's your gradient. Orc base, Ireland. Not surprising. The second within Europe, etc. And this is my Southwest Asian past, whatever it is. I don't think it means very much. I would like to say more about the sort of proof of Icelanders. Icelanders have been genealogical enthusiasts from the settlement in the 9th century. And there is a rich literature on families. And we have lots of experts in genealogies like you have here. But in 2003, Deepo Genetics lined up with software company, Frisk Software, to digitalize all genealogical records in Iceland from the beginning. And it's taken years and dozens of people to track down the archives and to add new members to the database. And I followed the launching because I found this an interesting experiment. It's the first of its kind, a digitalization of genealogies for an entire country. And when it opened in 2003, the reception was phenomenal. 18,000 people subscribed or opened in a few days. Then it slacked off, but remained fairly constant for once. And still, it's a constant traffic through the system. And most Icelanders have subscribed. If you have an Icelandic Social Security number, you're entitled to join. And it's free. And so practically everyone can join and most Icelanders do. And it was interesting to follow the launching. And Deepo offered people a chance to comment on it was not just information on trees, but also something on your personal life, family, spouses and stuff. And it was interesting to follow this process of communicating with the public. And Deepo's graciously offered me an opportunity to read some of the responses from the public and not show you a few. Gosh, this is really exciting. I got thinking of this when I was having my hair dyed after hair curses. On both sides were women saying, listen, my son-in-law turns out to be your husband, husband, et cetera. Certainly all cocktail parties had been turned into family reunion. I don't know this new man. And in any case, I'm not married to him. But if this indeed were the case, by all means, don't tell anyone about it. My husband was listed as my partner. When I drink from him, the name of his former girlfriend, since college days, appeared.  So I don't see any point in visiting this woman here. I registered for the book of Icelanders. I'm hoping for the records. I have no parents. I'm not at home. It would be fun to know what went wrong. So I explored my ancestry and my background. I was aware of a few generations, but this opened a whole new avenue. And I can trace my origins back to the 1400s and possibly further back if I go into the archives. And it's an amazing tool. And here's my mother and her village, and here's my father. And you see this is my grandmother. She disappears into loneliness, and it's because she was fair-wiss. And her background is not in the database. But I can also check through the book of Icelanders with any Icelander who's ever been around. And it's amazing that lots of Icelanders use that tool to explore people going to meetings, for instance, people log in and check how is this person across the table related to me. And you will get in a split second exactly. Usually it's a seventh or eighth generation, because this is a small population. And they have been bottlenecks in history because of eruptions and flakes. So most people descend from the same ancestors. Anyway, this is a kind of site issue. The book of Icelanders and the tools I've talked about so far allow you to explore your connection with Scandinavians.  But what about people who come from abroad? What about blacks? This used to be a thoroughly white population. There's the cover of a new biography of the first black person who settled in Iceland in 1802. He was born in Seckry in the Danish West Indies. And his mother was from Ghana, or presumably Iran, in West Africa. And at the age of seven, the boy was a slave, like his house slave, his mother. And he was sent to Copenhagen with his owners, the Zimmermann family, all thousands of slaves and plantations. And the boy escaped. He was rebellious and clever and spoke seven languages apparently. And he escaped from Copenhagen to Iceland because he was not satisfied with the legal verdict in a famous court case that sentenced him to remain a slave. This is a plantation on Seckry where he was born. We have the records of baptism. And we also have the dozens of pages from the famous court case in Copenhagen, which is part of the important material that I was able to draw upon. And this is a place where Hans John Anton settled in 1802. He arrived from the Danish trading store there in East Iceland. And the building where he worked, part of it, stands here under a beautiful mountain.  He married an Icelandic woman in the neighborhood. And they had two kids. And their descendants are now 1,000. Mostly in Iceland, but quite a few abroad as well. This is one of his grandson, Björn Eriksson. And he said to have been the skittish image of the old man. But the old man died before the birth of my photography. And there's no drawing, only a few handwritten documents by him. So he looked like this one in phenotype. Now here I'm checking through the book of Icelanders I told you about earlier. I've been checking my relationship to the descendants of Hans John Anton by asking the machine to tell me how I relate to Catherine Antonia Stokic, who was the wife of Hans John Anton born in 1798. And this is the result.  And his grandmother. So this is a typical Icelandic connection. We're all related to the 7th or 8th link. Here we have a descendant of the local inhabitants of Dufravo, the place I showed you, for a kind of festival in the beginning of a new century, a new millennium in 1900. And no doubt some of Hans John Anton's descendants are there. The interesting thing is that Hans John Anton didn't experience any racism as far as we know. He is remembered as an honorable creator and playing fair and respected for preaching against alcohol and teaching people navigation and stuff like that. So Icelanders, the local inhabitants probably saw him as somewhat different from themselves, but maybe just like a farmer from the next community. Things changed in the early 20th century because of growing independence movement which emphasized the purity of the Icelandic population, which emphasized the origin of Icelanders, the Viking heritage and the fact that 13th, 12th, 13th century Icelanders have created world heritage, namely the sagas, and how could we possibly flag the black blood that came in maybe in the 19th century. And some of the descendants of Hans John Anton say they would be quiet about their origin because black was not supposed to be around. And here's the family trees in Stonatan and Katin, and these are the African roots, African Europe, which we don't know much about. There's a debate about the paternity of the guy, but I elaborate on that in a book, and here are his descendants and way on about some people. Here's a woman, Roberta Eriksson-Tolés, who came to Iceland in 1985 with her father. They had heard that they had an ancestor who lived in Iceland and they came to explore the roots. And they didn't learn much during the visit to the community because few people spoke English at the time, but they went to the archives in Reykjaví and discovered that the ancestor, Hans John Anton, was a black guy called Amulato, mixed white and black, and that he had been enslaved, the son of a house slave dissenting from West Africa. So it was by discovery for this lady, and she happened to be teaching African American history in Boston, and she was stunned to learn that there was an African, Caribbean element in her genome. Now, this is the story of the mapping of Hans John Anton's genome. I won't say much about it, but in a few weeks one of the major journals in modern genetics published a major paper on the reconstruction of the genome of Hans John Anton, and it's groundbreaking in several respects. For one thing, in this case you don't have any biological samples to draw up on directly from Hans John Anton. We know roughly where his graveyard is, but we don't know the grave site, and we don't know for nothing. But sessions of his descendants in Iceland are in the database, the database of eco-genetics, and the black signature stands out in the records because there was no traffic and no black immigration before Hans John Anton. So by cooling the analysis of the genome of these descendants, they're able, literally, to reconstruct out of Hans John Anton's genome. So that's kind of fun. Secondly, his project is aiming to establish roughly where in Africa Hans John Anton's mother came from. The historical records would tell us roughly, the Danish trade vessels saved from the Gold Coast in Africa, but the slaves would arrive to the coast from different parts of Africa, Western Africa. So ideally this project would establish better than the historical records where Hans John Anton's mother came from and her ancestors. I can't tell you more about the literature and its results. I can only say that I think it will be groundbreaking and exciting to see how genetics and genealogy and archival work might fill in the picture. Interestingly, all of Hans John Anton's descendants, Ingar Kintuson, who is one of the directors of Nintendo in the United States, decided to sign back for 23andMe. He was born and raised in Iceland, but he lives in Seattle, and both of his parents are Icelandic. So he was exploring his own roots. He knew about the African roots. So 0.7% of his genome are sub-Saharan, and here are the reference populations. I think he had this done a couple of years ago, and another is his 23andMe. It's a bit blurred, but you know how this works, and it's interesting to see how Icelanders do this test to explore the black heritage. So I won't say much more here. I hope I haven't taken too much of your time, and now we have a few minutes on a new documentary trailer about the life of Hans John Anton, the visit of some of the U.B. saithans to St. Croix in the famous, now American West Indies. Let's see how it goes. Any favorite lights? So that's all I would say about that test. I'm going to tell you about some of the best saithos of Iceland. What do you say? I don't know. What about Iceland? What about Iceland? I don't know. And there are calls for reconciliation. And in humanity, you can imagine, here's now leading up to Dallas from Denmark to the United States, and leading up to 2017 is which our people can pursue reconciliation and put this... Excellent. Ladies and gentlemen, give us a hand. Thank you. Now we have time for some questions, and I'm just going to put up the last slide that we have there. And in fact, that was the... Yes, let's go to these slides here. And I'd like to go back to the one that you have about the book, which is... I'm reading it at the moment. It's a very well-written book. Very interesting reads. I certainly recommend it to anybody, the man who stole himself. And it's going to be an incredible segment for us in the genealogy community. I think the work that you're doing is... Sorry, groundbreaking. I'm going to stand a bit over here just in case it's interfering with that microphone. But questions for Casey. Let's take care. Curious about any wine DNA testing done to find the origin of the father of the... Thank you. It's a good question. I've been puzzled by the question of the father. The records say Emilia Regina, his mother, was born on the Constitution Hill, the property of Heinrich Schimmermann. The father is not reported, but rumor has it that it was the secretary. So this is the record. People have been puzzled for years what it means. But I'm collaborating with people at DeepCode on genetic testing in order to try to say something meaningful about paternity issues. I discussed three hypotheses in the book. Two have been kind of rumors for decades. But I offer my third hypothesis on the basis of the only written evidence we have, namely the baptism record. And I managed to get three DNA samples in Copenhagen from two from one of the candidates and one from the second. I was negotiating having a sample from one of the Schimmermanns, which is, I think, the second most likely candidate. And after some discussions, they refused to collaborate, which was very sad. But it's partly because the Schimmermann family has been enmeshed in debates on slavery. Thousands of slaves. And they were a bit of the fact that people are now requesting some kind of reimbursement, what you would call it, some payment of support as the representative Shirley Morehead indicated in the film. So sadly the Schimmermanns collectively decided to back out after the last minute having samples from the families, apparently from the families of the three candidates would be wonderful. But there may be an opportunity later on, I hope. Thank you. And what do you think are the implications of the work that you're doing for the process of reparation? I think a biography of an enslaved person from the Danish colonies is important from the current debates about compensations and responsibility. And I think the Danish Queen is going to St. Croix next month. And lots of people are waiting to hear what she will say. No Danish leader has formally offered an apology for one of the major slave trains in history. One of the... One of them is his music. So, yeah. No Danish leader has offered an apology up to now, despite heavy pressures. And I'd be glad to see what the Queen has to say. I respect the lady, and she has her integrity, and I would be surprised if she doesn't use the opportunity to finally apologize for the ugliness of Danish slavery. Sorry about the problem with the microphone. I think there's interference with the difference of sound systems in the hall. Yeah, I'm sure the work that you're doing is going to open up a whole new discussion about reparations and slavery, and will bring a whole new perspective to discussion. Now, any other questions? We have a few here.  Will the DNA results or his descendants be in any of the public databases, like the family tree DNA, YDNA, or the simple database for comparison? Thank you. I really don't know how these things work, but I imagine if people like this high standard INCRAP, subscribe to these services and record their ancestors, I imagine this will somehow be in the global records in the long run. And that's one of the interesting things with alternative is the fact that these databases are linked together and we can explore our roots back and forth. But I don't have a good sense of how I followed these things 12 years ago, when 23andee and people restarted, but I don't really have a good sense of how things are going now in terms of sharing and recording. Okay, other questions? Debbie? There are lots of things. The important point is that racism in the Danish empire only arrived with the Pantaisians. So it's the slave trade and the Pantaisian slavery. This was the birthplace of slavery in Denmark. And the same with the UK, I guess. Historians established this. Racism in the form we know today didn't exist in Europe before the slave trade. But, of course, there were ideas about people with different color or head shapes or whatever prior to this, even in ancient Greece. But it was not the racism that we know now, the skin color, etc. You're right. Eugenic movements in the early 20th century had a lot of impact in Iceland as well. There was a strong movement and Nazi party just before the war, etc. Lots of Icelandic intellectuals subscribed to the racism that German physical anthropologists had advocated in the 1930s and 40s. But the rhetoric on the race in Denmark with slavery seemed to have arrived relatively late to Iceland. So when Nazi immigrants came in 1802, Icelanders had not been subjected to this kind of thinking. But over the next decades, things will change. Now again, it's radically different. Icelanders debate about immigration and color and the rest of it, like the rest of Europe, they also celebrate diversity and color. I was just thinking about the statistics of how we're going to reconstruct this genome. I'm sure you can't say too much about it, but if his father was white... Sorry. If his father was a Shimmerman, who was a white Danish chap, will the Shimmermans have lots of descendants in Iceland and you'll be able to reconstruct the European part of Hans Jonathan's genome? Whereas if he just had two sons and they passed on his DNA, you're not going to get 100% of his African DNA. You're going to get maybe up to 75% of it. I'm not sure. I don't know if you can say anything about that. I guess the establishing who the father was is interesting on its own for the history and for the descendants. Finally, this is our man. But I really can't comment on the details of the calculations. It's not my field. In any case, it's still technical for me. Even though I had the figures, I wouldn't be able to make sense of them. Any other questions for Gisle? Okay. Thank you. Thank you.


Hey welcome back to the channel. So in this video I'm going to talk about five deadly copywriting mistakes that are killing your sales and killing your engagement. This was actually an issue in my Friday Fire Weekly newsletter. It goes out obviously every Friday and got a really good response rate. So I wanted to put this in a video format as well since I know that everybody's on my email list. Now real quick if you're new here my name is Sean. On this channel I talk about how to make money from writing online. If you want more content around that just hit the like and subscribe button so you don't miss any of my future videos. So if you are new I like to keep things pretty formal and pretty relaxed. I'm going to hop into my screen. I'm going to go over each of these mistakes and show you how to avoid making these mistakes and also how to fix them to make your copy stronger and generate more sales and get more engagement. Now as I go through these just keep in mind I've made every one of these mistakes. I'm not just telling you not to make these mistakes. I've gone through and made them and seen the effect. So once I fix them my sales improved and engagement went way up. Audience grew at a much faster pace as well. So I've been seeing these memes everywhere. These little miss there's a little miss for everything but little miss doesn't learn from her mistakes is on theme for today. So I thought why not have some fun. I'm a guy. Let's use some Mr. Memes here. So I put Mr. the mistake for each of these and each of the mistakes are after the word Mr. So had a bit of fun writing this. Let's get into the first one. The first mistake is Mr. Unbelievable. Not having writing or copywriting that's believable. So almost every newbie myself included goes through this phase of trying to make claims as big as they can be. So they think the bigger the claim is the more convinced someone is going to be to buy or to take a certain action with them. And that is not true at all. You have to back up that claim and you also have to get people to believe two things. You have to get them to believe your claim itself and they have to believe in their ability to achieve your claims. So in the business space I see stuff like this all the time right I'll double your business. I'm on a hundred X your leads and sales. I'm going to supercharge your skyrocket your profits. A lot of beginners when I see that type of stuff I know beginners are using that language and that just tells me that person is a beginner not very good at marketing. So another example if you tell a 400 pound dude he's going to lose 200 pounds in 30 days. If he takes your workout program there is almost a zero percent chance that he buys because number one he doesn't believe your claim and number two he's not going to believe in his ability to alert to lose 200 pounds in 30 days. So those are the two beliefs someone must have and it must be believable with your claim and their ability in themselves to achieve what you say in your claim. So of course we want to we want to back up our claims with proof but let's say we go from saying you're going to lose 200 pounds in a month to losing 10 pounds in a month while eating bacon which is the ketogenic diet I actually did this exact thing here. That's a lot more believable a lot more doable and so try making your claims smaller and more doable instead of trying to pump it up all the time like going for something like this. So that's mistake number one is making your claims and you're writing too unbelievable. We want to make it smaller more doable so that people believe in your claim and in their ability to do it. Second mistake is being Mr. Lecturing Dad. So I used to get in trouble a lot as a kid. I would always get grounded and scolded and lectured for all types of different things. I wouldn't listen to my parents. I'd go out at night after my curfew. I'd go to places I wasn't supposed to go and they would always when I would come home they would give me a talking to right. I was I'm the oldest kid in my family so I got the strictest. So they would always scold me hey you're going to be grounded for three weeks if you do this again and that didn't get me to stop it actually got me to do it more because I didn't want them telling me what to do. So I was like I'm not listening to you. I'm going to go out and do it again. So I thought rebellious is probably partly because I'm a bad kid and it made me want to do the thing that they were scolding me for more and more. And so this is what happens when you are writing copy and you're creating content. If you have that lecturing scolding tone and pointing finger tone you are going to make people more resistant. No one's going to want to listen to you because you're telling them what to do you're scolding them you're lecturing them and people don't like to be lectured and scolded very similar to how I was as a kid and very similar probably to you. I'm assuming you don't like to be told what to do either. So unless you're someone like a celebrity or a high ranking politician where you have an enormous amount of respect coming your way people are not going to listen to you it's going to make them more resistant if you try to lecture and scold. So there's a couple people I can think of that can get away with this because they're very good at doing this the right way then settle is one Chris Orzakowski is another guy. So they use this lecturing dad tone sometimes but they do it in a way that's cheeky and funny and entertaining. So if you are not experienced I don't recommend I see this a lot it's very common people lecturing and hey don't do this or do this instead or you must do this that's lecturing that's the lecturing tone. So avoid doing that unless you're in a position of power because what it does is it repels more than attracts people. So if you want to attract more people then make sure that you are not using this lecturing dad tone not making this mistake. Now the way that you fix this is I like to just think of having I like to drink I have beers I have whiskey and I like to think of myself sitting at the bar with a good friend if I'm having a brew with them and I'm just chatting with them how would I explain what I'm trying to say to them how would I tell them a story how would I convince them to buy a product that I've been using and getting good results with that's the type of tone that I take not lecturing my friend or I'm not going to sit down and lecture him on something I'm going to explain to him or tell him a story in a certain way or convince him in a certain way to buy a product by using a certain tone so take that friend at the bar tone or stance versus the lecturing parent stance and you're going to attract a lot more people who are receptive to your message that's mistake number two is using lecturing dad tone number three is mr confusion so we were with I was with my wife and her friend and her her friend's new boyfriend yesterday we're having drinks and he asked me what I do for work and I told him I teach people how to write online what about you so I have different answers depending on who asks but that's the answer I had at the time for someone who is not also in business so he said it was cool I gave him some details on my email list and my youtube channel and then I asked him what he does and he went into it I had no idea what he was talking about so he was saying stuff like well basically I do this essentially I do this and he was using phrases and words I've never heard of before using like industry specific terms and so I was just super confused and I was just I was doing that the entire time so nice guy right he was really excited about it but I really didn't understand a single word or a phrase of what he said I don't know what he does still so all my wife and I could do with smile and not which brings me to the mistake number three is that confusion is the killer of sales and engagement a confused person is never going to buy they're not going to engage and they likely won't be back again they're not going to come back if you're confusing them or making them feel stupid so if the reader can't understand what you're saying nothing else matters they're definitely not going to buy they're not going to engage you're not going to be back so don't try to be clever don't try to be cute don't try to be smart using big words that no one else knows make sure that you are clear above everything else make sure that your message is easily understood can you see how much easier it is to understand this I teach people how to write online versus going in a five-minute conversation not really saying much of anything right we want to make sure that they can understand our message confusion is going to kill all sales all engagement so clarity should be your number one priority the way that I like to improve and fix this is just imagine I'm explaining this message to someone young to someone who's maybe in fifth grade that helps me to make it clear and simple to understand mistake number four is mr never gets to the point so you might have a friend like this I have a friend from college who loves to tell stories but takes forever to get to the point and whenever he starts talking people roll their eyes and like okay I guess we're gonna sit here for 10 minutes now because he spends in an eternity talking about details that are not relevant to the story so let's say he goes to dinner and something happens while he's eating food at dinner he might talk about the entire sequence leading up to him getting to dinner so he might talk about walking down the street and seeing the lady in workout gear or a man in workout gear or seeing a pitbull run down the street or seeing a guy smoking a cigarette so he gives you all these details that are not relevant to the story at all and I can't remember who came up with this term but they call it throat clearing where you take forever to get to the actual point the actual meat of the story so you need to get to the point and fast because you will lose people I don't remember where I read this but it said the human attention span is less than a goldfish which is six seconds or less so you have a very very small window to get someone's attention so if you are writing copy and creating content people aren't going to be as forgiving this is my friend so we'll just sit there and listen to him and roll our eyes and laugh about it but if someone doesn't really know you too well and they're reading your copy and reading your content or they're a completely cold prospect and you're trying to get their attention you are going to lose them and they're never going to be back so I tried to get to the meat as quickly as possible if you want to see examples of this go to my LinkedIn profile and you can see exactly how I structure my posts and how I post every day I don't want to waste time sharing details that are not relevant to the reader I don't want to spend time clearing my throat I try to capture attention right away and I keep it throughout because we only have a couple seconds before we lose them possibly forever so do the same thing don't waste your audience's time by sharing all these irrelevant details get to the point to the meat of why they're there and keep it relevant on what they want to the point of the story so that's mistake number four mr never gets to the point make sure that you're getting to the point quickly and immediately mistake number five is mr generic I talk about this a lot to my clients and students but this is a mistake that I made quite often and still makes from time to time but this is not being specific enough so instead of being specific we're being generic so here's an example what sounds better I'll help you make more money online that's generic right everyone says that who's in the make money online space or I'll help you make an extra 5k a month writing simple fifth grade emails for other businesses which one is more specific this one is generic and this one is super specific and here's a simple way to test this right we want specificity in our copy and messaging but the way that I test this is I ask myself can I draw this out easily if I can't or if there's too many ways to draw this out then it's not specific enough so if we take this for example I'll help you make more money online we might be able to draw that out but there's a million different ways we can draw that out as opposed to this there's just one way to mainly draw this out right a guy sitting at home he's typing on his computer you can see you can draw like some cash spitting out right but the idea is going to be the same every time because this is specific so option b it's you can tell this is more specific because we can draw this out and there's not a million different ways to do so option a there's so many different ways we can do this this is way too generic way too broad so if I'm wondering if I'm specific enough or not I ask myself can I draw this out so one in doubt draw it out or ask yourself can I draw this out and if there's too many ways or you can't think of a specific way to draw it out then you probably have to go a little more specific okay so those are the five deadly copywriting mistakes that are killing your sales and engagement let's go through them one more time number one is being unbelievable number two is being mech mr lecturing dad mr three is being mr confusion number four is being mr never gets to the point and number five is being mr generic and I gave you fixes for all of these mistakes here so that's going to wrap this up if you enjoyed this make sure that you get on my email list to

Somebody didn't get their nap and snack today. After Kevin McCarthy made good on his word to release all the January 6th footage, he announced that he'd be giving it to Tucker Carlson. Okay. Okay. Hehehehe. Oh no. Seems like a good choice, considering almost everyone else in the media is invested in a narrative, much of which is false. So they can't be trusted to report on facts that conflict with it. But fussy, pissy pants Kinzinger doesn't agree and had a full blown meld down on Twitter over it. Hehehehe. So Kevin McCarthy shared the surveillance footage, not with the rest of Congress investigators or anyone like that. It was Tucker Carlson. Hehehehe.   The Elise defonketing of McCarthy has been breathtaking and not the man I thought I knew before Trump lies. Lies. Lies. Lies. Oh, you and me, we're friends. Promise never to do it. Ever considered that you're the one with a problem? Your constituents seem to think so. Kinzinger just cannot help himself when it comes to public meltdowns and outright lying. For one, investigators have had this footage for years now and members of Congress have seen it. Including you, Adam, your little commie committee clown show could have released the footage, but for some reason didn't. Gee, I wonder why. I think that Adam and his Red Revolution comrades are worried that Tucker's gonna find something that they purposely covered up. This rant did not end well for Piss Pants Adam with a ratio tsunami reminding him of all these facts and more. Well, it sounds like the fraudulent J6 committee that was actually a big joke is getting a little concerned about stuff you guys already knew and didn't share with anyone. Congress had the video. Adam Schiff and the J6 committee doctored text messages belonging to a sitting member of Congress and leaked them to the press. Now, Democrats are crying about Tucker Carlson having access to J6 surveillance footage. Raw footage given to the press for the American people to see truly treasonous. The J6 committee could have released it whenever they wanted. So you and the other members of the committee hid the entire video from us. You just selectively showed bits and pieces, but McCarthy releases the entire thing to the most watched person in media. So we can all see it and he's the bad guy? Ha ha, Adam's afraid he's gonna go to jail for his part in the commission's deceptive TV production. You're right, it's fact. And if you remember, they actually hired an ABC producer for this theater. You had two years to release the footage. You didn't, but you sure did stitch together some great propaganda clips to share with the world. So it seems you're accusing Tucker Carlson of potentially going to do what you've already done. Exactly, and this all really comes down to that. Why didn't they share this footage when they could have? Instead, they dragged their feet for as long as they could. Especially when it comes to characters like Ray Epps, who the J6 committee and Democrat state media all mind-blowingly rushed to defend as a victim. The guy who literally is on video when citing a riot is the victim somehow. Mr. Epps was in front of the January 6th committee, and we were told that a transcript of his interview would be released, but it's never been released. And I wondered, was he sworn in? None of the transcripts have been released, so you don't need a conspiracy theory about that. We haven't released any of them. Were you present when he was interviewed? That would give me... No, I was not, I was not. We've done more than a thousand interviews.  Okay, he's just trying to survive, and he's on your side. You don't have many voters left. You might want to try to hang on to them without demonizing and vilifying your own people.  No, I'm sorry. None of this makes any sense, and it's likely the reason they're all going crazy right now. All right, folks, that's all I have for that one. I do want to let you all know that if you like this Brian Stelter shirt, it is live right now on my Teespring store.

Today I want to talk about something that's near and dear to my heart, and it's something I didn't really realize fully how bad it was I probably should have at this point, but the reputation of what is an adult game versus what is a game made for kids and This realization hit me Maybe not so surprisingly because after I got my haircut yesterday I went into the GameStop which was right next door and this is the GameStop that I frequently do business with I know most of the employees This time they did have one of their newer employees in who have only been working there for about six months so I've only seen them a few times because it's not like I'm going to GameStop all the time and I Was just browsing. I really wasn't planning to buy anything I was just looking at their switch accessories and I noticed like this cool Splatoon 2 hardcover case that I considered getting from my switch for when I'm going portable because that's so much I like Splatoon 2, but whatever I'm just browsing along and I'm hearing them talk to this customer who was buying his son His little kid son like I think his kid was like five or six Mario Kart or not Mario Kart. I'm sorry Super Mario for DS So they were getting a DS game. That's all fine and dandy But the customer asks about the Nintendo switch because they he said that he saw a commercial for it And he's seen signs and he's just kind of wondering, you know Do they have it in stock or or you know, is it worth getting and the customer's like, yeah We only we only get a like four units per month, which I already know is a lie But again a newer employee. He's not the manager. He doesn't actually know When all the shipments are there. He doesn't work every single day So I can forgive him for not being super knowledgeable about that aspect and making it sound like the unit's more Scarce at the store than it really is. That's not what I take issue with though So he said he he was giving his opinions on the switch and I'm this is not like a story that makes GameStop look all crappy This employee I don't view him any worse for wear But he was saying that yeah, I really loved my switch for about a month and a half And then he sold it and he said the reason that he sold it You know, he said Breath of the Wild is amazing, but it's a console for kids And he repeated that over and over again that this this Nintendo switch is a console that appears that appeals to kids and obviously Nintendo's hardcore faithful and He said, you know, you basically need to be a hardcore Nintendo fan to own one And that's fine like that just just that on the surface saying you need to be a hardcore Nintendo fan to own A switch is fine because obviously the biggest games on the system are Nintendo games And if you're not into Nintendo games, then yeah, you probably shouldn't own a Nintendo switch So he's I'm okay with these comments But then he goes on to say that I actually he said I actually Prefer to play the more adult games that are on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox one because all of those switch games but Breath of the Wild they're for kids and It made me realize something and I didn't say anything because Again, this is just his general opinion, but it's an opinion that actually exists pretty regularly I actually don't see it online as much You know, I'm a neo-gap I'm on a whole bunch of different gaming forums and involved in a lot of gaming conversations And I don't specifically notice a lot of people viewing Nintendo games as for kids as Maybe the reputation might be but I have noticed out in the real world Like this is like the third or fourth time just in the past month that I've heard somebody in Public say that you shouldn't get a Nintendo switch because it's for kids And if you guys remember I made a video about how Nintendo switches audience is more hardcore Is more adult-like than Sony and other people think and if you go and look at the the card above you can go check that out and The reason I said that isn't just because of Breath of the Wild isn't just because The switch has this huge appeal to adults. It's because My opinion on what games are for kids and what games for adults It seems to be vastly different than a majority of general consumers out there even general gaming consumers out there Because when he was talking about this, he mentioned games I call then he plays a game that Call of Duty and Battlefield and Destiny and all the stuff and and that's fine A lot of adults play those games. There's nothing wrong that I've played those games but What I had noticed when I see people playing Mario Kart It's a lot of adults. Yes kids play too, but it's usually they're playing daddy and mommy's copy of Mario Kart They're not playing their own copy of Mario Kart. They're not even playing on their own switch They're playing on daddy and mommy's Nintendo switch It's daddy and mommy playing, you know Breath of the Wild it's daddy and mommy playing Splatoon 2 and when I play in Splatoon 2 Every interaction I have had so far has been with adults. I haven't even ran into a child yet playing online There's this general reputation that because Nintendo's games are Not like going for that ultra realistic look that they don't feature a bunch of blood and guts everywhere That you know, they don't have the M rating or whatever the case may be that Nintendo's games are kitty And it's a reputation I feel as gamers as you know, just I know it's Nintendo fans Obviously we have a bias because we're Nintendo fans But just as a gaming community as a whole we need to start spreading out awareness that these games appeal to us as adults and and I think It's something that only as a community can we collectively do something about I wasn't gonna get into a heated argument or debate with a guy But you know if he had been talking about how it's for kids And I had been sitting in the store playing on my Nintendo switch playing some Splatoon 2 right in front of them as a 31-year-old adult as he's telling me that I'm a kid for playing this it it would have really maybe made him feel a little dumb because my general opinion is that Kids like playing whatever is hip and cool when I was a kid You think punch out was made for me as a five-year-old. No, it was not made for me But my dad played it and because my dad played it I thought it was cool So I wanted to play what my dad could play and that's the way kids are they want to play with the adults are playing Yes, there's games made specifically for kids and my kids enjoy some of those games especially on their tablets But when they see me play Splatoon 2 when they see me play Zelda when they see me play all these games They want to play it they they want to play what I play because they think what I am playing is cool They think I'm cool. I'm the cool dad So that's the reputation that that happens When he talks about you know more adult games like Call of Duty and battlefield We all know that kids play that like crazy the other day when I was at GameStop I think it was like a week or two ago There was a kid that picked up The latest Call of Duty the latest battlefield Star Wars Battlefront and a couple other games and these are all games that are obviously targeted at adults But the kids wanted it because he other friends were playing it He saw other adults playing it and kids want to be hip and cool They want to do what the adults do. Why do you think smoking and drinking is so prevalent during the high school years? Because they see adults do it they see their parents do it And so they think it's hip and cool and they want to be part of the hip and cool club They want to grow up Obviously as a 31 year old adult I could tell you that once once you become an adult like a full-on adult not early adult code They're like this this mid to late adulthood you start to wish you were a kid again And with the knowledge you have now because you would probably enjoy your childhood much more And not worry so much about you know trying to be hip and cool like an adult, but It's it's one of those things that as a gaming community. I don't view Nintendo Games as for kids and I know again. I have my bias because I'm a Nintendo fan But like Splatoon 2 is really hard, right? Like it's really really hard I have my daughter try to play in it. She got confused by the motion controls Let's turn the motion controls off. She got confused trying to use that right stick twin stick gaming is still not something That's super convenient for little kids and that's fine. That's okay. So to into is a fun game That's easy to get into and easy to enjoy, but as soon as you play online the moment you go online There is a skill level difference that a lot of kids especially on you know under 10 I would say are not going to achieve teenagers they can get up there but the kids under 10 are probably not going to achieve the the same skill level as between to as someone who's older a teenager to an adult and Splatoon 2's appeal is mostly in that teenager to adult thing I mean look at that line that had 10,000 people in Japan waiting for a Nintendo switch last week Specifically because between two was coming out that line contained. It was something crazy It was something like 88 percent were adults I mean adults are what are buying the Nintendo switch They are the ones that want the Nintendo switch and want the games and games like Splatoon 2 and in Mario Kart Well, they have like an appeal that appeals to you know, everyone the rated E You know kids are gonna think it's cool adults are gonna think it's cool a vast majority of the player base are teens to adults and It's been that way forever and I Feel weird saying this but using my own Nintendo bias for me When I was running Zelda Informer It was something crazy like 98 percent of Zelda Informer's audience was over the age of 18 And that's a site that was getting over a million views per month had you know almost a million likes on Facebook and 50,000 likes on Twitter like over, you know over Vastly over 18 this channel Nintendo Prime While we're small time and we're not nearly at the level of what Zelda Informer as a site and as a social media presence is You know, we have our 60,000 plus on Facebook We have you know our we have some videos here that have done over 60,000 views and we have I think we have a billion view video about the my body is ready meme, but we are vast majority of our audience is over the age of 18 and That's not a so because I'm catering my content to people who are over 18 That's just what happens because a lot of people that play Nintendo are either grew up with it Or they enjoy the games as an adult and I feel like this is something we need to start changing in the general gaming community's Mindset is that just because games don't look hyper realistic doesn't mean that there are net that there are kid games and Just because games are hyper realistic doesn't mean that they're adult games because so many kids I know more kids that play Call of Duty than play Splatoon 2 and And That's just blows my mind when I worked at the elementary school last year Watching all these kids between the ages of six and ten a whole bunch of them were always talking about Call of Duty Call of Duty get one kid talk about Splatoon But you had all these kids talking about Call of Duty how they just play You know, we'd have circle time or we would share, you know, whatever we did the day before that was fun And so many bit. Oh, I played some Call of Duty last night. I played some some The Witcher I'm just like what are you guys even playing these games? They're they're not Suitable for your age, but that's because adults play it their parents bought it and they want to play with their parents play And a lot of these kids that play Call of Duty have parents that that play Call of Duty themselves and play Destiny and all the stuff and so that's what the kids want to play and that kind of brings my point you know full circle here is that Kids are playing whatever adults think are hip the games themselves are not Inherently designed to appeal to any specific age group Nintendo's games are designed to appeal to everyone but the core mechanics in them are very adult-like and I feel like the reputation with Nintendo games needs to go away the Nintendo Switch is not a kid console and I I'm not saying it can't be but it's really not kids are not very go with twin stick controls They're not really that into motion controls these days They're not necessarily into having like this big portable device. They can't even fit in their pocket like that isn't that it's not an appealing thing The kids it's an appealing thing to adults who want to bring their serious games on the go and I'm sorry Splatoon 2 is not for kids Mario Kart is not for kids Breath of the Wild is obviously not for kids arms is not for kids these games While they have an appeal factor two children are Heavily heavily gameplay Mechanic-wise and skill-wise catered towards an older audience. So Again, we need to start killing that reputation that art style Equals age groups because that's incorrect and Needs to be thrown out and that's nothing against the Call of Duty's in the battlefields and battlefronts and all that stuff of the world I love those games too, but we need to just start shedding the reputation that just because it looks like a cartoon Doesn't mean that it's for kids. I mean come on South Park. Is that for kids? Just saying real-world examples out there that We need to understand What the core audience of the switch is and look at the core audience of these games are and the core audience is adults Don't let the general gamers get you down Let's help spread that reputation around that. Yes I am an adult and I play Splatoon 2 and I'm not playing it because I'm a huge Nintendo fan I'm playing it because I generally love the game So yeah, let's spread that love out there and I hope to catch you guys in the next video I am Nathaniel Ruffeljans from Nintendo Prime.

The following contains strong language, nudity and scenes of a sexual nature. What beautiful view. Okay, I should have taken me mam somewhere a bit more exotic. But at the end of the day, we're still spending time together and that's all that matters. What is it like to be a mam? It's a lovely fulfilling experience. I'm excited to be a mam one day. It's getting on now mam, I'm nearly 30, you had me when you were 24. Things happen for a reason and we've just got to just get on with things, haven't we? I've always wanted to have kids, but after me apatomic pregnancy, it just seems to have gotten further and further away. I have spoken about it with Josh to be honest. Does Josh want children? Josh wants children too, but he's just a bit too young. And it's not something that I would rush into. I would want to know that he was the right person. 100% committed. You're making lovely mam. I couldn't ask for a better mam. If one day I'm half the mam man is, I will be so happy. I'm ready to do this. What are we doing in this hotel on Charlotte Street with Charlotte Cosby? It's all about me, isn't it? I'm just looking forward to the show. I do get a little bit nervous because I'm like scared in case nobody watches it. Are you going to watch it? I'm going to, obviously. One of you are great. And then I'll watch it, so that's two. So does the ex appear as well? We started filming shortly after everything happened. Do you ever speak to Ben? No. No. We don't converse. So, love life, got to talk to you about that, otherwise I get sacked. You're happy? I am so happy. I am extremely happy. But me, I just, and I don't have a boyfriend, he isn't my boyfriend. What do you say you guys are in love? So it's very tricky to know if the lover's there yet or not. OK. Is there something holding you back? No, no, nothing's holding us back. I want to be official. Believe me, I have asked many times to be official. So how long has he got before he has to tell you? I'm going to give him one more week. It's not very long. But I can't wait much longer. It's been four months, for God's sake. I've told him, I've said. It's been so long. He's like, it hasn't been that long, four months isn't that long. I was like, eh, what if Josh is a commitment form? What if he doesn't want to be my boyfriend? What if he never says he loves us? What if we don't get married? What if we never have a house and have three dogs? It's been a full-on press day for this show. But I've also got a very important meeting with the team from the Eptopic Pregnancy Trust, which I'm a patron for. I met Alex and Monira shortly after the ectopic pregnancy. It was so nice to be able to speak to people who would have the same experience. And I felt like I wanted to really spread awareness about ectopic pregnancies. When I had our ectopic pregnancy, I felt like I was the only person in the world who'd been treating us. You're left at the end of surgery having lost a baby. A conflict emergency surgery that you weren't expected. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Having a facility affected and then worrying about the future. And then you have the emotion as well, cos the heart is broken. I'm getting emotional just thinking about what to do. It just brings you back to that time when you just feel lost. Like, you feel empty. Like, I think everything's just been taken away from you, so that is the hardest part about what I think. Here and other people's experiences brings back so many memories that come flooding in, and it just fills us full of emotion. They're walking the new thing that you're doing. I think I want to do it. It's covering either 1,000 kilometres or 1,000 miles. That's a lot of miles. But it's over, yeah? Oh, thank God. You can do it with your mum, seeing who can do it the quickest. I will. Hello. Hi, man. Listen, I've got with being set to a challenge. We're going to raise money by doing 1,000 miles walk-in. 1,000? I'll take forever. How long have you got to complete that? Yeah. We can complete it in the year. We're doing it. There's no time limit. I've been out for all of huge youngins. Oh, for God's sake. What are you eating, anyway? Eating hand soup.  Right, okay. I'm so skinny. With the challenge and the pain. I thank you so much for coming back. Oh, my God, no. It's lovely. I'm just so worried with mum's funny illness. She's just being so funny all the time. I'm starting to get down about it. I would, as well, because she's so much more funnier than you. I don't really think anyone's happy about you anymore.


I'm Chilp East and this is Shane Harris, we're with the Alabama Cooperative Extension System and today we're going to talk to you about pruning rabbit-eye blueberries. Blueberries should be pruned to stimulate new growth and plant vigor, to remove dead or diseased wood, to produce the fruit load to make berries larger, to keep plants a manageable size for harvesting, and to provide air movement inside the canopy to produce disease problems. Blueberries have fruit on one year old growth so what grew last summer is what where our buds are that's going to bloom this spring and where our berries will be this summer. Any of your shoots that are near the ground or close to the ground when they have fruit they're just going to lay on the ground so those are some that we would might want to take out. The tall shoots that's way up over our head our berries are just going to get further and further away from us. One year old growth so whatever grew last summer has berries this summer so every year they're getting taller and taller that's more berries getting further away from us so it's our tall branches that needs to come down. If you look at this plant you'll see from waist high way up over head house where a lot of the new growth is that's where a lot of the berries are. The key to pruning is to get all these berries down in the chest high area so they're easier to pick. A pruning salt is an effective tool to remove some of the very large older canes at the base of the plant. This needs to be done every few years to allow new growth. These shoots if they have fruit on them and there's a flower bud there so it can have fruit a lot times they just lay over so if we would top them every time they grow 12 inches 18 inches that'll keep them branching. Although blueberry plants need less pruning than many other fruit plants pruning is still important in order to maintain plant vigor. Blueberry plants can put on a lot of new growth each year when pruned correctly. Take time each winter to prune your blueberry plants. Once completed the blueberry plant will have a combination of old growth and new growth. Pruning should be done every year to keep the plants healthy and productive. If you need any other information on pruning blueberries just contact your local Extension office.
