Hey friends today, we are checking in to Lowe's Portofino Bay here at Universal Studios Orlando This is my first time staying at a Universal Studios resort and I'm super excited because Gracie is gonna be staying with me It's her first time staying at a Universal Studios resort as well And we're here for the Orlando Informer meet-up any hoos. Let's go do this Because it's the holiday season Gracie's got her Christmas nails on look at these.  Huh? You ready? Come on. Let's go. Oh, yeah, let's go We are all checked in and we already have our room. I brought our backpacks to the room already We didn't really pack much. You know, I brought some extra clothes. She brought an extra collar and Now I figure we just go around and give you a little bit of a resort tour and also show you the room and Also, just see how cool it is to be at a pet friendly resort and to have Gracie experience It's beautiful place like because it is like stunning like when I first like drove in here. I was in awe We're staying in the East Wing and we're gonna show you the room in a second But I wanted to show you like this courtyard area. They've got a Starbucks at Universal Store They've got a couple different restaurants Some coffee shops and some lounges and it also looks like they're putting up their Christmas tree for the season The Orlando informer is a special meet-up. Well, it's like a separate ticket event where they actually rent out the park And you have it all to yourself and you have all you care to enjoy food No wait times for attractions and a part of that is you can actually get hotel packages and deals So you can actually book like a separate ticket to go to the Orlando informer meet-up And then also get some amazing discounts at some of these resorts and now this resort itself is well I think like a deluxe resort like this is like a very high-end resort and I feel like so fancy being here I can only imagine what Gracie thinks Right now. I'm actually trying to get some nice photos because like it's so beautiful here trying to get this all in the background and Gracie's like so well behaved. She kind of just chills out She's always just like hey as long as nobody comes near her She is like a little skittish, but for the most part she'll not she will never run away Like she won't like leave me or anything like that She's always got to be right next to me and always by my side. Is that good girl? Yes, you do She always got to be right there. Well, I always have to be right there.     It's very cozy.  Look how like high these ceilings are it's insane and the bed is so beautiful It's like like I said very cozy in here and we also got a little dog pack Loves loves pets. We'll take a look see what we got in here.  We got a little poopy bag holder. Oh Some treats from bark Avenue bakery. Look at that. You want to treat? Oh Two treats. This is really lifting. Oh, we got a little mat. I think we're gonna have to set her up here Door we're gonna put this doggy downtime. Oh Yeah, we're gonna have to give her like the full setup She's pretty particular about her bowls So I don't know if she's actually gonna use that but I did bring her bowls from home And I'll set them both up because you know, we don't want that to go to waste And if she does like it then we're gonna keep it and I'll bring it home And that'll be like one extra set that we can use maybe for traveling But back to the room tour a little bit like they've got a mini fridge in here Like I just like all the furniture. It's it's very nice and like very fancy a nice little table And here's our backpacks. This one is Gracie's this one is mine And then we've got a nice little chair over here that chair looks very comfortable Not much of a view though. I mean, it's a it's a very pretty view But no balcony or anything like that. I thought that was a little like shocking. Oh, you move so quick and Yeah, I mean, it's a nice nice room and very big but oh, I gotta show you the I gotta show you the bathroom Yeah, right over here at the bathroom Look at this. It's a very big bathroom Probably a little bit of an echo in here. I like all the soap and toiletries here Whoo, this is fancy what's in there? Oh Nice and then The shower Yeah, pretty nice. We're gonna put this on the outside of the door So they know we've got a doggy on the inside Look at that and her with care. Oh This is where I hung her leash to Seems like a good spot I'm gonna put her little doggy dish right here I've got those pets This is her water dish. She loves this water dish and then this is her food. We bought from home Silled it up to keep it fresh There we go And there you go. I Guess we'll give her one of these bark Avenue bakery treats Huh? You smell it Who's a good girl you good girl? It's in the shape of a cat ready Now that she's all settled in it's time for us to head over to the Orlando informer meet-up But wow take a look at that sunset happening right here on the water That is beautiful The meet-up is from 7 p.m. till 12 30 But you can get in as early as 5 o'clock the park shuts down at 7 o'clock and all the guests are asked to leave Who don't have a ticket to the Orlando informer meet-up and that's how the wait times are so low And then you get to enjoy all the food you care to enjoy even butter beer all the butter beer hot cold and frozen Another awesome thing is this is the winter meet-up So we're gonna be able to have all the holiday festivities and see the Christmas decorations here at Universal Studios We might even see a Grinch or two actually while we're in there and that's got me super excited I'm excited to try a whole bunch of different food that I've never had at Universal Studios Now's the time to do it because everything is like free. You already paid for it with the ticket So you get to go into all these locations and just kind of grab and go and it's like everything like every like Iconic food stop that is actually in Universal Studios is included in this So you can actually try things that you've always wanted to but you never did because you didn't have the money for it Looks like things are a little bit different this year And where you actually get the Orlando informer meet-up registration is right here to the side Before it actually used to be in between Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure But it's nice to be right here because then you get to see all the Christmas decorations It also looks like a storm is brewing The logic behind actually doing the Orlando informer meet-up is a single day ticket at Universal Studios is $169 this ticket is $219 it includes all your food and also It's like having an express pass as well an express pass can cost you $100 So if you get an express pass and a single-day ticket, then you're looking at $269 Where you pay $219 and you get to eat for free as much as you want So honestly, it just makes sense especially from a money standpoint And that's if you want to get a lot accomplished because you can basically get everything accomplished in one night for the informer meet-up Where if you do it without like an express pass, then it could take you two days actually Now we're all checked in and we got ourselves our little ticket and our wristband And I'd like the way that the Orlando informer does things like they're so personal about things They even give you the phone number so you can call or text if you have any questions as you're here But now we're good to go Something that's a little bit new this year in the past like I said the park is open from five to seven for everybody But you get to go in a little bit early and they want you to actually eat before the meet-up actually starts So you can have food throughout the whole entire time And this year they actually give you a gift card that you can actually go buy whatever you want You know what I mean as like the park is still in regular business hours You can go buy a meal if you wanted to and that's really nice I think it's $15 so now you can knock that off the price too We have finally made it in and look at it. It's so nice out today I really really love the fact that we're here for the winter meet-up because it's nice and cool It's like 70 degrees out and a lot of people are leaving Like I said, you're gonna get this park pretty empty into yourself and I can't wait to just ride rides and eat food I love hearing all the Christmas music and I can't wait to actually see the trio little for the first time And also the tribute store is open. So I'm getting the experience like all the holiday festivities during the Orlando informer meet-up Look at how beautiful it is here I just love it so much Oh the Christmas music it's just really hitting the heartstrings here Universal Studios does a great job with the holidays. I have to give it a hundred percent credit on that Especially like this like street setting right here. It just makes me feel like I'm in New York City You know what I mean? It's really amazing My ultimate goal tonight is to be your guide to find all the food items all throughout the park because Even though like some of these places are iconic They do serve some of their food items that they would normally do But some places actually have different food items. You know what I mean? Like I remember getting uh some wings actually at Finnegan's that were absolutely amazing That was last year. I don't know if they're going to be this year and just some of my favorite food items You know what I mean? So I'm going to show you like all the food spots Along with all the food items. I want to show you all the Christmas decorations like this tree right here I have to say this is the king theme park tree No other theme park tree is as big as this. I don't think like the girth It's so big. I love it and it's so beautifully well lit Like the lights are great and they I think they change and they twinkle Very very cool king theme park tree If you guys are interested in purchasing tickets to an Orlando informer meetup I'm going to put all the information in the description below And there's a couple like already scheduled for 2022 But you got to get the tickets fast because they do sell out tonight is a sold out event They also have I think in december So like there's multiple times for like the winter meetup and there's one in december that I think is already sold out too But I'm not a hundred percent sure sometimes spots actually open up. So you always want to reach out and check the website That's why I put the information in the description I think I'm going to actually go wait inside finnegan's for the event to officially kick off It's starting to rain a little bit. I'm not too bad Just a little bit of drizzle. Hopefully it actually stays away, but we'll seek some shelter in finnegan's There isn't a better place really When I got into finnegan's I ran into some friends and take a look at these shirts or lando informer checklist rides Food park hop food rides in earl disworld I love it. Oh, wow Oh, you guys are great. These shirts are amazing Bye I feel like my plan of attack is to get a couple of items to eat over here at universal side Maybe ride the mummy and eat And then hop on over to island's adventure to see if we can catch the grinch And also ride the lousy coaster and haggard's and then eat a bunch of food over there I also want to try one of each butterbeer. So I want to try hot cold and frozen Do you know what I mean? I gotta try them all maybe more. Who knows right now get a butt light It's about 7 30 and we're coming up on our first wristband check and that's actually to get in doggen alley. Hope Thank you Yep. Oh, yes So right now there is definitely nobody in here except for people from the orlando informer meetup Which is really lucky to me and this is just the beginning. Oh, wow. You can see a big difference already It's empty in here The food isn't available for another 30 minutes But the butter beers are available and I think that's a pretty good way to start. So our first butter beer of the night Right here inside the leaky cauldron. I am excited In fact now that I'm in here, uh, I don't think we're just gonna stop like with In fact now that we're in here, I don't think we're just gonna do some butter beer We're gonna do whatever harry potter drinks they have available So like if they've got pumpkin juice, I'm gonna try pumpkin juice. I'm gonna try it all Like we're gonna do like basically a whole entire harry potter drink fest Here is a list of all the harry potter drinks I don't know what's included or not, but they got butter beer frozen butter beer hot butter beer pumpkin juice tongue tying lemon squash Otters fizzy orange juice fishy green ale peach tree fizzling tea and ghillie water Well ghillie water is just the water but you can also buy some of the alcoholic versions That's not included in your ticket. You have to pay for those but you can't get them during the event Look at this. I am in shock. That's it. I think so. I think so. Yeah, that's all of them One of everything I think this is like a hundred dollar tray right here. Oh, wow. Look at that skill I can't wait to try all these If you've ever wanted to try all the harry potter drinks in one shot This is the best time to do it because or else it's gonna cost you a lot of money and this is like gonna be fun I don't think I'm gonna drink every single one of them. I'm just gonna try it But I didn't know they were all available and now I am excited. I wouldn't have done this last time So I've had all the butter beers before I didn't get all three butter beers I just got the cold one because I wanted to keep it all like cold beverages right now I will be getting a hot butter beer later on but this one is the butter beer then we got the pumpkin juice and then we've got the uh Tongue tying lemon squash and then we've got the otters fizzy orange juice Which is really fancy because it's got like a salted rem or a sugary rem with an orange And then the fishy green ale and then the peach tree fizzling tea and we're gonna try a little bit of all of them Let's start off with the butter beer because I've had it so many times and I love it Much too good now we got the pumpkin juice Very good the lemon one I've never had that before I like it. It's got a strange taste to it. I like it a lot Now the orange juice one Yeah, I like that one too. I like all of them now the fishy green ale It's got boba balls in it Wow and now the peach tree I don't like that at all Butter beer is my favorite And then the pumpkin juice then the orange one then the fishy green ale then the lemon one And then the peach tree, which I really didn't like at all But that's my order and that's how I like them so so good. This was such a fun experience. I'm really happy. I did it I've never had half of these before As I was drinking my harry potter drinks it looks like the food is out We've got salads and cottage pie Looks really fancy. You can't really tell with the heat lamps, but it looks cool Look at that stuff right there. That's good. Yeah, perfect The idea behind tonight is to sample Everything and not eat any large quantities of any one particular item So I just asked for like a little tiny scoop scoop seal shepherd's pie scoop seed potato It's so funny because the way he put it in there It was like scoop seed potato if any of you guys know what I'm talking about when I say that Let me know in the comments because it's really funny and it's something that I laugh at every single time Here we go first bite of the night Oh, that's good See this is where it gets dangerous because I want to eat more But I shouldn't eat more because I'm gonna be eating a lot more. Does it make sense? I shouldn't eat more because I'm gonna be eating a lot more a lot more I don't want to say goodbye. I don't want to because it's so good, but there's other things we have to try Well, that was a good start to the night a little bit of shepherd's pie and all of the harry potter drinks I figure since we're here We're gonna actually get all the food items that we can get and that is including the ice cream It's raining at the moment, but look how empty it is over here now. It's time to get some ice cream I've had a lot of the ice creams from in here like the butter beer ice cream and the thin mint one But today I want to try like something different even though I do want to get the butter beer because it's my favorite But it's about trying things that You normally don't try because then you have no regret if you don't like it You know what I mean because you didn't really pay for it.  It feels different. It hits differently I might try the clotted cream the earl gray and lavender or the sticky toffee pudding Like I said, there's a lot of different offerings that we can try that I've never had before I'm just kind of torn. Oh strawberry and peanut butter That's going to be like a strange combo There we go I ended up getting the earl gray and lavender and then I got the sticky toffee and then the strawberry peanut butter I asked if I can get little sample size but they said no Because if they actually do that everybody will come in and try samples because there's so many samples So we're just gonna kind of just take a little bit of each First the toffee pudding one Wow, that is so good. Holy moly Strawberry peanut butter what a combination right? Well, it kind of reminds me of a peanut butter jelly sandwich like now that I think about that Wow, that's actually really enjoyable Now the lavender lavender is really hard Okay lavender here we go That's unique too like some kind of special stuff right there Oh Let's say the toffee toffee was my favorite then the strawberry peanut butter and then the lavender I think we've officially tried all the snacks over here So we're going to be making our way out of diagonally The only thing is is like I said the rain has actually started to be a little bit heavier So, uh, we're gonna have to duck and cover and run. I always love looking at the dark mark right here. It's always fun I think we're going to just go to the next place that's closest to king's cross station So that way we don't get caught in the rain, but honestly it is so empty here I mean normally the meet-up is pretty empty But because of the rain a lot of people aren't here or they're actually just like hiding out And I don't mind the rain because everything's indoors really like uh like some of the rides over on islands adventure Those are a lot of outdoor ones, but over on universal side everything's indoors Now we're gonna make our way over to finnigans because this was one of my favorite spots at the last meet-up I love getting the bread pudding and they had the wings in here. I don't know if they got the same things But we're gonna find out It's christmas time at universal Oh, look at this. We got some chicken wings. Absolutely.  We'll do one of those too Perfect. Oh, thank you Then we can't forget about the good bread pudding. There it is with whiskey sauce. Is that the whiskey sauce right there? Right here. Whiskey sauce it up I love it. Thank you Oh, yeah Much too good right here Here we go My favorite from last year's Orlando informer meet up the bread pudding with the whiskey sauce And she really whiskey sauce it up and then they got the wings and the the little beef uh the beef patties And we're gonna dive right in I love how she said uh just one wing and I was like, oh, yes, gotta watch I gotta eat a lot tonight And I went team flats because I'm team flats. Let me know if you're team drumsticks or team flats, but Flats all the way for me. Oh, I could have done the wing trip The wings have a little spice to them say they're like a medium sauce not a mild a medium now for this little guy But the thing I've been waiting for look at this bad boy.  I want to eat more. I want to eat it all but can't do that We got much more ahead Before we bounce to islands though, we need to stop at the monsters cafe. It's a half two for me Earlier when we were talking about french fries and them just being like generic french fries around the park That is not the case here at monsters cafe. The french fries here are amazing They're crinkle cuts and they got like a nice little season on them And I love to get the prime rib sandwich if they have it or the brisket sandwich on prime rib I hope they have it. We'll check They do have the brisket sandwich and they also have chicken And then here's the french fries that I was talking about. These are some good stuff right there They also have some broccoli and cauliflower and then a s'mores cookie. You know what a s'mores cookie They were a little bit more accommodating with the portion control here I asked them for just the brisket on their on its own I could have got the sandwich with the texas toast But you know I'm trying to save room and the meat is what I like the most So I just got a little bit of brisket and then I asked for just like a couple french fries and they did I think they gave me like nine fries. So I'm excited.  Perfect. And then we're going to dip it in barbecue sauce Bon appetit Seriously, this is so so good And like I said, I come just for the brisket alone and just getting it without the the toast and all the sides that come with it Good enough for me Monsters cafe never disappoint. Also, I want to point out that every single ride over on universal side right now Is a five minute wait. There are no Waits at all. I was able to ride mummy earlier. I want to ride some more rides That's why we're going to actually go over to islands now that the rain stopped I think we might be able to get on the loss of coaster or haggards because that would be amazing Earlier they were down because of the rain and uh now I think they're back up One of the best things is you don't actually have to leave the park to go over to islands You can just cross right here and they'll let you go through So it's really awesome like they have a separate cross area and you kind of get to see a little bit behind the scenes And take a look at this beetle juice is actually out greeting and walking around and meeting people You don't see that often. Hey, how are you? Oh very good very good I think my hat actually matches your A little bit a little bit right thin stripes. Did night though, huh? Yeah. Yeah Well, we got some friends. They're waving hi. I think they like you Keep on looking over here now. They're taking photos. Oh, yeah, hi I don't know How awesome is it to see a character performer out roaming around and not wearing a mask like That's that's pretty amazing, right? This is the way to actually get over to islands of adventure And earlier I was telling you about all the rides actually having no weight Take a look at this pickable me right now. It just says Ride now Right now no wait Oh, see I'll pass I think we're gonna be coming out right in Grinch mess here. So that's a little fun Now that we're officially over here, we got to keep our eyes peeled for the Grinch Thank you. What's up, dude? What is up? How are you? It's another day another migraine, but I wear it well. Do you think I think you do?  It's been a pretty solid two years not having to deal with you flatfoot Oh, I like it. It's fun. Yeah, I'm giving people good fun nicknames. You see I've got flat foot I've got fliegel horse and so far I've got Beatles above but people have weird reactions to that one Beatles above Beatles above Beatles above. Yeah, I thought I had a nice ring to it. I like it I thought I'd at least rip a whole bunch of gifts for Beatles above so that way to see who they end up Under the trees this year. Oh, who knows? Do you like my hat? Uh, chapeau Yes, hesitate. Yes any sweet parents this holiday season anybody'd like me to say hello to for a special quality holiday message My mom What's your mom's name? Cindy Bye Cindy. Bye Cindy. Happy holidays. Nailed it. Thank you. All right. Just kidding. Hey Cindy Happy holidays make sure that you are showered with gifts this year if he doesn't pull his weight. Let me know I'll handle it personally message received. Thank you so much. Thank you Thanks for being tolerable, dude. Oh, no. No pleasures all mine I think we can all agree that the Grinch is the best at being the worst Like that was such an amazing like meet and greet and he was wearing his mask like that stuff is so awesome And it's so happy to see the world back in order One of the places I've never eaten at is the Circus McGurkis cafe So I think we're gonna go in and see what they got going on in here I love coming in here. This is my first time going to be eating here I usually just go about The uh, Seuss trolley train because it actually takes you inside here And I don't think the Seuss trolley train is running right now because of the rain But oh it is running. Oh I might actually go for a ride on that. I always love this Seuss trolley train Looks like we've got a bunch of tots here. They got pizza tots Buffalo chicken tots and green eggs and ham tots That is interesting. A lot of it all has cheese on it though. So I'm not too excited about that I think I want to try the green eggs and ham, but I also want to try the pizza tots Here is the green eggs and ham tots. I think I'll take some of that and then also the pizza tots over here I like the lighting in here, but here is the green eggs and ham tots And it has like a white cheese sauce on it. So I'm gonna try not to get that in it But I do want to get some of the green eggs there. So we're gonna try this one first Tastes like tots and then uh The pizza tots and this one actually there's only three tater tots in here. Like isn't that funny? There's one two three three tater tots Here comes the Seuss trolley train Hi Oh Back to the tots. There's only three in there. So what am I doing? I'm gonna take this little pepperoni I'm gonna take this little top right here. I'm gonna add a little pepperoni on top of it And then a little bit of sausage right on top of that. So then he got top cheese pepperoni sausage The total package I like that better Now I think we're gonna actually go to the left Normally I'd probably head straight back on over to hogsmead But I think we'll go to superhero island and kind of make our way like around The hulk has a no weight either. It's right now right now if you want I have a feeling that cafe four is basically the same as louis pizza I don't know if that's correct or not. We're gonna take a look see and if I think it's different Maybe we'll get a slice Well, it looks like they have like a different service here. They don't have like spaghetti meatballs They have spaghetti with meat sauce and then that's the alfredo Is this just grab-and-go or you got some chocolate cake there? Is this the same pizza as louis pizza you think? over universal side I think it would be right the chocolate cake. They don't got that there I like how everything's just kind of grabbing go here. It's much different But I really think this is uh the same pizza Let me know if you guys think the pizza is the same or if you know I just kind of think it looks like it the only thing different in there is you can get the chocolate cake But I didn't want to just grab a chocolate cake for a chocolate cake I already had a cannoli and we've had if you know quite a few sweets if anything I would have eaten more of the bread pudding But I think the green goblin's walking around right now He's gonna try to scare those people They don't know what's about to happen. I should warn them Oh I might have felt a little bit bad if the green goblin really scared that family, but Maybe I don't think he scared them at all Looks like spider-man is a 10 minute wait 10 minute wait doesn't look like a 10 minute wait. I guarantee it's a ride now ride now Other than cafe for they have captain america diner Which is basically like the same burgers you would get over on universal side So I mean there's really really not anything to get here I mean, it's cool because you get to ride the hulk and it was also cool. We get to see the green goblin, but uh Maybe we shouldn't went the other way And now for one of the greatest perks of the Orlando informer is being able to ride the pterodon flyers This is something you normally can't do unless you have a child with you They don't let adults do it on their own But only at the Orlando informer you have the opportunity to do it and we're going to do it today You end up actually getting one of these tickets that give you a return time to come and ride. Isn't that pretty amazing? So awesome. And like I said, this is very rare Universal won't let us actually oh there goes the losso coaster and the flyers at the same time Holy moly. I was just about to say something important I was about to say the universal doesn't let you film on a ride So i'm just going to be able to show you loading and unloading process and uh, I mean, I'm just excited to ride myself This is such a cool ride and I only get to do it whenever it's due in Orlando informer So it's a rare treat. It's a rare treat for me. I think somebody should be coming in right behind them here I can hear them any second.  I loved it so much I love that so much.  It looks like you're actually going into the raptor containment area This is like super scary Before we actually go ride Velocicoaster, maybe we should stop and say hi to blue It is very cool that the raptor encounter is actually up and running right now And it says it's only a 10 minute wait. So I'm all game for that I'm gonna go say hi to a raptor Good girl. Thank you. Nope. She's getting frustrated. She's frustrated. Get out of there Oh, thank you Say hi. Hi blue Hi Thank you. I am happy to be here. Oh, wow That is it. That's intense. That's gross. Yes. Okay, we're gonna do a photo real quick Because I'm not going in there. It was there. Yeah, I wouldn't either But thank you blue Thank you Yep How awesome was it to meet blue? That was so cool But now I think it's time. Maybe we go uh ride Velocicoaster should be shooting off any second here Or maybe my timing is just completely bad Yeah, I think we'll just go down there I just met a family. They told me that it was uh, like basically a walk on for Velocicoaster. So now I am so excited Oh, wow, they got some street performers over here, too I've never seen this before Wow That is so awesome. Wow Look at this 15 minutes. I don't think it's a 15 minute wait either. Oh, these floors are very wet. Don't break dance here Oh, wow The last time I rode it. I was waiting all the way back there I love it at night so so much better at night and there was no wait no wait at all And now from Velocicoaster to Hogsmeade Look at that. I think it's time for another butter beer. I think everyone can agree on that Wow, look at it over here All this open space. I don't know what I should guess I get a hot butter beer I think I want a hot butter bear, right? Wow, would you take a look at this? It looks like Hagrid's is a uh 15 minute wait That is pretty that's pretty amazing I think we can get hot butter beer in three broomsticks and also we can see what they have to eat I'm really not that hungry, but I would like to see what they have I don't think there's going to be anywhere else. I plan on stopping and getting something to eat So this is always kind of like my last stop anyway or my first Well, now I think we're going to head right on into the three broomsticks This is probably going to be the most fulfilling meal that you can get here Like uh, it's definitely like a big big portion Funny thing is is I waited longer for three broomsticks than I did for Velosa coaster, but we're almost there You don't have to choose anything here.  So you actually just grabbed a plate and went So instead I just decided on trying the apple pie and the hot butter bar hot butter bar I can't wait to see what's inside this apple pie Look at that I can see the raisins in there Here we go. We're going to give it a go This reminds me of a way better Burger King apple pie You ever have the Dutch apple pie from Burger King? It's exactly what it reminds me of Hot butter beer is completely on another level though. So so good. It's like creamier. I feel like Wow So amazing and you have to get it from three broomstick I went to go to hogshead and they were all sold out. So three broomstick I would check that first or if you get in line at hogshead ask them before you actually wait there I think we're just going to keep moving along though hot butter beer in hand Seriously, that's just so good. Oh man, and I love coming over here at night It's so pretty right? Look at all the lights and it's like nobody over here And I think with that we're gonna call it a night. It was fun and we got to do a lot We get to try a lot of different food items. We got to ride osa coaster Terranano flyers Uh, I almost did Hagrid's but I was like, you know what? I think I'd rather go home I'm gonna go back to the room. I want to see Gracie and uh kind of just relax I mean it was a fun night Like I said, we got so much accomplished Orlando and former is so worth it Especially if you only plan on coming to universal like once on your vacation You know what I mean? If you're coming down to Orlando for a week and you come to or lay it like Universal for like one or two nights and if it happens to be nights that the Orlando and former are happening Get the tickets. You will not regret it. Anyhoo's. I hope you enjoyed the video and uh, we'll see you next time. Bye

Hi, my name is Liam Rowe currency trader and trading coach at trading 180 comm and welcome to this video on support and resistance now what is support and resistance support resistance is used by traders to identify areas on a price chart where There are buying and selling opportunities So you have Horizontal support and resistance you have diagonal support and resistance Which is things like trend lines and I'll be talking about that in another video and also things like Moving averages as well moving averages or what you would call dynamic support and resistance and again I'll be talking about that in a another video, but we're gonna be focusing on the Horizontal support and resistance and how to plot horizontal support and resistance and pretty much why they're used and how to trade them so again support and resistance are used by traders to identify areas on a price chart and locations on the price chart where They want to do business and this is based on historical price Reacting at that price as well. So if this was a price chart and What you have is areas where prices will come up to a level or down but in this case up to a level and then you will have a strong rejection So this is gonna be price here and you have different levels and then So this area and these areas Would be used as what we would call resistance because price is being resisted here So price has been resisted here price has been resisted here And here and then what you would have is Things like support so support would be where price is being supported. So think of support as the floor and Think of resistance as the ceiling. So Based on past price action So imagine we were looking at this in real time. We hadn't necessarily Seen what was coming into the future so prices will come up Right and that was real time when prices gradually make their way up What traders would assume is that because prices had been rejected here that The same may happen or there's a probability or a likelihood that the same thing will happen again Currently so they would project that prices come up to this level and then there's a 50 50 60 70 percent chance That prices will do that again in the present So they would look to the past and look to the go back through the charts and see how prices reacted at that level historically and then try to capitalise from that In the present and hopefully price does have the same reaction. So the strongest levels of Support and resistance. Let me just clear all this up So the strongest areas of support and resistance are Areas where you can see a lot of buying or a lot of selling coming into the market and Historically so again, if prices are moving up and then all of a sudden we have prices move down That becomes an area or this area becomes an area of interest All right, so this is okay. Well, there was a lot of selling at this point So let's do it from the buying side and it would look like this from the buying side So price may be coming down like this and then all of a sudden you get a lot of buying prices move up So that would become, you know, this would be an area of potential support We have no idea whether this is going to be support Don't know I put SP Let me just take that off sir. Yes, you Pete This is support All right, because price is being supported now when price again comes down into this level We're looking for the same thing to happen the same reaction to happen and again the same thing with resistance, right? Yes So Again, the strongest areas of support resistance to where price has been rejected like kind of like hard in and hard out as I would say so it comes into a level and then comes out That's what you want to see. You don't want to see price coming into a level me You don't really want to see prices coming up into a level where it's like it's like this You know slowly slowly and then You want to see something like this and something like that on a price chart And that is basically evidence of a lot of selling or a lot of buying in the market So With support and resistance the second touch of a level is what we would call confirmed support and resistance So we don't know that this is Resistance for example at this level is resistance here. We have no idea So we have no idea that this is resistance We know that price has been rejected there But what are the what is the likelihood that that would be that would happen in the future now? What they were called an aggressive entry now traders who are quite aggressive Because you've got aggressive traders and you've got more conservative traders Would look to this zone and then they would use that as a go obviously the area that they would look to maybe sell and Depending on whether they've got some other Confluences or indications that this is going to be a sell trade then they would Look to actually sell and hopefully price goes in their direction but we can't call this an area of resistance until price has been Resisted because prices could easily just continue going Higher so we could be in what they call a trend so this could be making a high a Higher low and this price could actually just go straight through so until prices have actually reacted from this level and Look like they're going down and been rejected then we can actually confirm that this area is a level of resistance and the same thing with Support so let me just get rid of So support would be the same thing We have a rejection now We're on alert at this level to see if price does come back into that level if price does come back in here and price does react Then We have a confirmed level of support So it's usually on the second touch It's always on the second touch that you can say that this is a confirmed level of support because we actually don't know whether Prices may continue going through that level. So when plotting areas of and levels of support and resistance The level should be obvious for you know pretty much everyone to see so what you don't want is a level where it is quite ambiguous and and Not obvious because if it's not obvious Then there are not going to be traders at that level traders like for support and resistance is traded by You know the big institutions Retail traders. It's pretty much the foundation of most trading strategies most technical trading strategies, so When looking for These types of areas as far as support and resistance what you want to do is you want to trade In an area where there's going to be a lot of buying and selling activity And if it's not obvious that there's going to be a lot of buying and selling at that At that area and you're basing that off of history and historical facts Then the that's an area that you don't really want to be looking at look at obvious areas of Support and resistance and what we're going to do is we're going to go to the chart next and I'm going to show you exactly what I mean And we're going to be I'm going to be showing you how to plot the best levels of Support and resistance so this is the daily chart on the US dollar Japanese yen pair and We can see some interesting areas of support and potential potential support and resistance, so First of all whenever we're drawing support and resistance on a price chart What you want to do is draw the Areas as zones There's a temptation to draw them as lines and you might see them drawn as lines You know and in other videos But just my advice is to more draw them as zones and the reason why is because the market is really not perfect as far as You know prices when they basically ping off of a level let's say for example here To draw Prices as a line Doesn't do the area justice you may miss out on Quite a few trades if for example price didn't actually come up if you're waiting for price to Reach this exact zone and it's exact line. It's exact price of 114.381 and Prices came up, but didn't touch that area because that happens quite a lot You may miss out on a trade depending on how you trade whereas if you draw it as an area then you have quite a wide Zone with which to look for price to come into and Look for a trading opportunity so Trading is is is a science and it's an art. It's a balance It's very so it can be very subjective or it is very subjective matter of fact To you how I draw and where I draw my support support and resistance zones Maybe slightly different to you and you'll be different to Different traders, but as far as the exact areas, but What isn't going to be different is how obvious the level of support and resistance is To traders they are You know once you know how to plot support and resistance and what you're looking for then It becomes quite easy to to see so Draw them as a zone. There's no exact correct way to You know to draw room people do develop different techniques But as long as you're looking for an area where you want to do business then that is what matters so What you want to do So support and resistance are zones So what we want to do is identify first an area of rejection in a strong area of rejection So what you want to see is let's Get a tool and So you can see is you know, basically like the hard in hard out movement That's what you want to see to the upside for Resistance and then you want to see something like this and then something like that to the downside and that would be a potential level of Support and this would be a potential level of Resistance so if price does come back up into this level here aggressive traders will look to enter on the first touch and then if this does become resistance Then that is a confirmed level of resistance. This isn't confirmed until price really Is supported or resisted by price on the second touch so Going back to candlesticks So we identify an area of Potential resistance so in real time. This is what we would have seen We would have seen that area there and we would have When prices came back up into that area of potential resistance We do see prices You know react to that level now As an added bonus what you also want to see if you don't necessarily know that this is a Potential level. Well, it's always a potential level of resistance, but You what you want to do is look to the Historical side of the chart to see if this level has been traded to give you a bit more Confluence in taking this trait so What I mean by that is you want to scroll to the left of the chart Right and see if this level had been traded and reacted to and this price Had been reacted to a few times in the past and that would give you more Confluence to maybe trade this on the first touch of this level so What we want to do is probably just extend This level here and look back in the past and see if this level had been used or had been traded as a Resistance level in the past you can see That it actually had so you can see prices came up Resisted prices came up resisted prices came up again Had been resisted a few times again right here When prices came back into this level we got a reaction here We got another reaction a few reactions in a few for a few days prices couldn't break through prices eventually broke through the level Prices come back it would act to the resistance there acted as a bit of resistance here so when prices did come up to this level and then Were rejected Because you know in the past that traders had Seen this level as a level of Resistance and it had been used as a level of resistance in the past that will give you more Confluence to actually take the first touch of this new level Or potential new level of resistance, so If you wanted to enter a trade earlier, then that would give you the confidence whereas if you had Looked to the past and let's say for example this level hadn't been used as a level of resistance before Then what you would probably want to do is be more conservative in your approach And you would probably wait for confirmation of this level to be a level of Resistance and then you would probably wait for price to come back up into this level here again To this level here again and then Because this would be the confirmation of the level because if price hadn't Have been used in the past it has hadn't been an area in the past then We don't have that Historical pattern and what we're looking for is patterns within the market That have that are basically repeating themselves So if this has been repeated then chances are that this would be a good Location to try and get short on the first attempt back up into this level if this price Historically had not been used in the past, but we did see a strong rejection then The safest way to trade this level would be to wait for price to come up into this level Come back down wait for the reaction the confirmed resistance and then See prices come back up into this level here again, and then you would want to look for Shorting opportunities trading opportunities to the downside So next we have let me just get rid of Some of this stuff here right, so next we have The more zone is touched the weaker it becomes right So With support and resistance the more zone is touched the weaker it becomes There is a tendency for traders to believe that the more a level is touched the stronger it becomes But if you were to think about this logically right if a Level was to become Stronger as it was touched. So let's say for example prices came up prices came down Right. We've got a level resistance if each time a Level is touched it gets stronger and stronger Potentially then we would be in a Ranging market forever the market would pretty much stay between a high and a low and As we know that is not the case, you know markets move in trends. They move sideways and think about really support and resistance as a Pebble being skimmed across a pond So the first touch if you can skim if you don't know what skimming is maybe, you know, Google it But you know, you throw a pebble on You know in a river or a stream or a pond or something like that and what happens is is the pebble Say this is for example, this is the water Right and the first touch is usually the strongest touch The second touch is is going to be a bit less and a bit less and a bit less and then it breaks through The surface of the water. So think about support and resistance In the same way So the more a level is touched is the weaker it becomes that does not mean that this level Will not, you know, we'll definitely break through Right. It you know the market can you know have several touches and bounces, you know five to five six seven Ten touches if it wants to but just as a general rule of thumb What you want to Assume is that the more touches a support or resistance level has Is the weaker it becomes it's not as strong as the previous touches. So let's go back to Go back to the chart, right so Just as a rule of thumb assume that that is the case because we can see for example Right so We can see this level of Support here We have one two and then prices actually Break through now We would look at this zone and we would say okay Well, is this could we have traded it here the first time? So if we trade if we saw this move in real time and we saw prices, you know Come up here come down here. Sorry and then move up, you know and make this bullish move here Could we have traded this the first time round? So then we look to the chart historically and see if prices had been Used as support in the past so we can see prices were supported here We can also see that prices had been support here here and It pretty much, you know broken through but then it would come back and again This would be more of a zone. So If we were looking at that area there Remember prime support and resistance is more of a science and an art so again, it had been used as Support in the past with this area here. So again We can see that prices came into this zone. So We could have actually traded this and been an aggressive trader and Looked to get in on the first touch So we know that this level had been traded in the past as support So once when prices came back down into this we can trade this on the first touch But going back to prices becoming weaker the the more that they touch is That's that's what you pretty much want want to assume So we'll go through some examples So here we go. This was the past previous example So we have you know prices touched here first time second time and the third time Prices reacted. Did we see was this level touched in the past? It's been a level that had been touched in the past No well Slightly and that was back in 2008 it wasn't necessarily a level that had been touched recently in the past so This one you may have wanted to wait for some sort of confirmation Before getting in and as you can see prices did hold the third time of Brown So again, just take it as a rule of thumb you can go back through your charts as well and See how many times on average? You know support and resistance does hold now What we also have with support and resistance is When support becomes resistance and resistance becomes support so when price breaks Right so when price When a support level does not hold or when a resistance level does not hold then the underside of a support level would become resistance and The above side of resistance will become support. So let me just So let me show you what I mean Sorry my brush tool. Here we go so Let's say we have a level of support price has been rejected price has been rejected And then the third touch and then prices go through right so on the second touch we would draw a level of support Once prices break through support Or if they do The underside of what we would call the support level traders now trade this as resistance and this is known as Market structure so the structure of the market Has changed support has now turned to Resistance and it's the same thing with resistance becoming support. So we would have resistance resistance Resistance prices might do something like that We would have a level that traders would trade off of prices break through now traders would trade this level To the upside So when we're talking about and when you hear market structure or the structure of the market, it's that support becomes resistance and resistance Becomes support and again, we're just dealing with probabilities. This is not Exact, you know, you don't think that you know prices now must become You know Resistance once it's broken. It's just there's a likelihood that Once prices break a support level, there's a strong chance or usually a high probability chance that broken support will become resistance and Broken resistance will become support So let's go back to the charts And we can see an example of this on Something we had drawn earlier. So we've got this level of support support and then prices break through What do we see prices come up into this zone here and then we have a rejection Let's see if we can see a few more right so this is this is a nice one, right? So we have prices and this identified level of Previous support now prices come back up into this level and it becomes resistance If we extend the line the zone further We had resistance here And if we extend this To here Prices broke through now resistance becomes support support support Prices broke through resistance we can see that prices broke through again resistance resistance and This is pretty much what happens with the structure of the market. So again, we've got a level here Where we've got a resistance level here, we got Unconfirmed resistance, we don't know what happened to the left So we might want to confirm that level if we were good looking to trade this aggressively So if we were looking to trade aggressively, let's have a quick look to see what had happened in the past And if there was any There was a decent level Well, there was a level it pretty much been 2007 since prices, you know Come back up here, but it was I guess a level That traders had looked to in the past So you would make up your mind to say whether that is a valid level if that was too far in the past But again, we're looking for patterns. So it is a historical level This was what 2014 so pretty much seven years later seven six years later we had the prices come up here and Whether you wanted to trade that Or not, but we're talking about Resistance becoming support and resistance. So we had a level That had been broken through and then we see prices come back and act as a bit of support prices broke through Came back through again broke through and then prices were used as Resistance again at that level prices came back up into this level again. That is a level of resistance prices broke through support support support broke through and we had pretty much Support becoming resistance and resistance becoming support So just to recap Support areas support and resistance areas are zones on a price chart Again, it's I keep repeating this, but it's a science and an art It's very subjective to you, but what's not subjective is You know areas where you have this hard in and hard out movement. So, you know price is being rejected Quite severely and quite sharply. That's not objective. So you're looking for those types of areas to be on alert when you're looking for areas of support and Resistance draw them as zones Look to the past to see if that level had been used Historically as support and resistance. Remember that support becomes resistance and resistance becomes support So if it is an area in the past that has been used as support and resistance You may want to be a bit aggressive in your entry and not necessarily wait for price to be confirmed Once price comes up into a level of support or resistance or potential support or resistance So again, just looking for obvious areas on a price chart. Don't look for You know that every little tiny level Of possible support resistance if it's not clear and you're you know, you're struggling to you know search for a level Then it probably isn't a level of support and resistance. You're not gonna capture every support and resistance level at first This is a skill.   Oh, I should have seen that in his hindsight Don't worry. We all go through that The more you draw support and resistance zones on your chart is the better you'll become as You know spotting the best levels of support and resistance.

I don't think this is easy. Your brother is in an army hospital in Washington. I'll take anything. I'll set up, but I've just got to get to him. But, my dear young lady, don't you understand? There is no space available, none at all. No, no reservations. No, no, no, no, no, no. And that means no, and that goes for you too.  Oh, dear, why didn't I get into some family business like collecting for a finance company? I mean, he's putting on a special car tomorrow evening for the movie stars who are going to Washington for the big 50-bond show. Bing Crosby is in charge, and if you could get to the studio tomorrow morning and tell him your story, maybe...  I'd like two bedrooms and a compartment to Chicago. Yes, sir. By saying... No. Oh, sure. Look, lady, nobody gets in here without a pass. Not even... Oh, hi, Mr. Benzley. Got a pass for the lady? She doesn't need one, Bill. She's my new stand-in. Oh, well, that's okay, then. What do you mean stand-in? That girl's your woman, she... Hey! Hey! Come back here, you! Listen, Bing's over at the recording stage watching Carmen Cavallero rehearse a number.  You do?  I'll take care of Willie. Oh, thank you.  Well, it's certainly a little enough to do. Look at the fruit salad on his chest there, huh? Looks like your big brother's been up where they really play for keeps. And all they ask us to do is to buy victory bonds. Tony, we're going to get you on that train if we have to make the engineer get off and walk. Riding through here, Carmen Cavallero's going to give us some very good Gershwin. I got rhythm. You want to go over there with me and sit down and see what we can figure out? Of course we can listen a little, too. Maybe a little difficult. You see, this is the first time he's ever had a chance to ride inside the train. Why don't you go to Bob and tell him your story?  Oh, I'm kidding. And he's really a very sympathetic understanding man. He'll probably show you his scrapbook, and then you can both have a good crush. Go to him. I will. And thank you very much. Do you want anything else in the world to help you? But I slept with Crosby once. You know what he does all night? He dreams about horses. All night long he kept going, kept beating me with a bed post. When I woke up in the morning, I'd eaten all the straw out of the mattress. That's it. Yes? Yes, Eddie. Game in second. And there's a meat shortage. Oh, I know it's a lot to ask you, Mr. Hope, but my brother's so lonesome. Look, there's nothing I wouldn't do for a GI, but lard myself in a lower berth. That's a concentration camp with pajamas. What to do? I mean, I don't think turning on the tears is going to change my mind. I've had women crying over me all my life. No, sir, I've got a will of iron. You're beautiful. Speak to me. Say something. Come on, Bluefoot. Get it up there. Get it up, Bluefoot.  Get in the money just once. Gentlemen, this is Bob Hollywood Victory Caravan Hope telling you not to let up on buying those bonds. Don't stop a nothing, and your bank account will be as well stacked as Betty Hutton. I've been working very hard on this bond tour. I even offered to kiss anybody that'd buy a $50 bond. I only sold one, and Boris Karloff wants his money back. But now to open our show with a reminder that our South American friends are always with us, here's Miss Olga San Juan singing Roomba Matumba and putting everything into her singing from south of her border to north of the Hayes office. Miss Olga... Miss... She just set the good neighbor policy back eight years. Still selling kisses for $50 more, Bond. I'll take one, please. Well, it's just a few left. I think Boris Karloff was right. And now, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Humphrey Boogard. We've had a lot of bond drives. New people have proven by your magnificent response to each one of them, that you know exactly what's going to happen. We've had a lot of bond drives, and you people have proven by your magnificent response to each one of them, that you know exactly what's going to happen. We've also had a lot of patriotic speeches. I'm sure you don't need another one from me to tell you why we need this victory loan. You know why it's important that we make this victory loan the smashing climax of all bond drives? Our fighting men have just won history's greatest victory for freedom. They didn't stop until they finished their job. It's up to us not to stop buying bonds until we finish our part of the job. We've got to bring those boys home. It's up to us to see that they get what they were promised and what they have every right to expect in medical care, hospitalization, rehabilitation, and economic opportunity. Your victory loan dollars will fulfill your pledge to the men who won the victory. This is the last chance victory loan. It's your last chance as a member of an organized civilian army to buy bonds for the freedom of the country. This theater staff stands ready at all times day or night to sell you victory loan bonds. With your help, this theater staff has a magnificent record in seven war-loan campaigns. They have a quota in this victory loan. It's part of the state's, your city's quota. And now, for many happy returns, follow the musical advice of Bing Crosby in the United States Maritime Service Training Station choir from Avalon, New York City, and the United States Maritime Service Training Station choir from Avalon, California. As they sing a new song by Harold Adamson and Jimmy McCue, sing it, Bing. We've got another bond to buy We've got another bond The bonds we bought before bought the bond It's won the war, now we've got another bond You may think the war is won But we can't leave the job half done The boys have seen it through Now the rest is up to you Yes, we've got another bond to buy Bonds away, put your dough where it earns Bonds away, and someday you'll get so many happy returns You know with every bond you buy You've done your part for some brave guy We've got to play it square With the boys we've got out there So we've got another bond to buy Got another bond to buy Dig in your pockets Oh, you may think the war is won Ask any soldier But we can't leave the job half done The Navy will tell you The boys have seen it through Now the rest is up to you Yes, we've got another bond to buy Bonds away, put your dough where it earns Bonds away, and someday you'll get so many happy returns You know with every bond you buy Jim and Jack, and we've got to bring


Hello viewers. I welcome you all for the today's session on analysis of super elevation. I'm Ashok Kumar, Assistant Professor, Department of Civil Engineering, Valchan Institute of Technology, Solapur. The learning outcome of the today's session, at the end of the lecture, students will be able to design the super elevation for mixed traffic condition. Before we go for designing the super elevation, let us understand what is the maximum super elevation and minimum super elevation. So considering these slow vehicles and the slow vehicle with heavy loaded vehicle, so considering these slow vehicle, the maximum super elevation is restricted as per the IRC guidelines. In the plane and rolling terrain, it is fixed as 7%. And in hilly terrain, we go up to maximum 10%. And in urban section, we design the intersections and all maximum super elevation of 4%. Considering the drainage aspect, so whenever we know that when the radius increases, like 2,000 meter or 4,000 meter, when the radius increases, there might be not requirement of any super elevation. But whenever the super elevation comes lesser than the camber value, but it is suggested that you have to provide the super elevation equal to the your camber value. For bituminous roads, we know that it is 2.5%. So for bituminous roads, it is taken as 2.5% super elevation, even though there is not requirement of any super elevation, but we have to provide the minimum super elevation of 2.5% that is equal to camber value. In the previous session, we have derived this equation of E plus F equal to V square by 127 R, where V in kmph. Now can you think this equation holds good for mixed traffic condition? What is mixed traffic condition? What I'm trying to expect here, the mixed traffic condition where this equation should meet the requirement of fast moving vehicle as well as the slow moving vehicle. Let us take an example over here. If I derive the equation, if I calculate the super elevation required for fast moving vehicle, taking the speed of 100 kmph, the super elevation might be in the range of 6% or 5%. Now that the super elevation is suitable for high speed vehicle. That higher super elevation is suitable for slow moving vehicle, that is the question arises here. So this super elevation, which you have considered for higher speed, it is suitable for high speed vehicle, but may not be suitable for slow moving vehicle. In other case, if I take the speed as low speed, that is say 40 kmph or 30 kmph, and design the super elevation using this equation, now you will get the lower super elevation. Now whatever the value which you have obtained, whether that suits for fast moving vehicle, no. It is suitable for slow moving vehicle. So here question arises, the whatever we, but whenever you providing the super elevation, there is no separate super elevation for slow moving, no super elevation for fast moving. So one super elevation where I should take care of both fast moving and slow moving. So here this warrants the designing of a super elevation for mixed traffic condition, considering slow moving as well as fast moving vehicles. Now how to design that the super elevation for considering the both fast moving and slow moving. As we know that the for mixed traffic condition, it is a very complex problem to design both slow moving and fast moving vehicle. So taking the lower E and rely on the completely on lateral friction would be unsafe for a fast moving vehicle. So yes, we are taking the lateral coefficient of friction help to contract the centrifugal force, but this may suits for the slow speed vehicle. But what about the high speed vehicle? Entirely depending on the lateral coefficient of friction for high speed vehicle is completely unsafe. So again, providing higher E incanonent for slow moving vehicle. So rather again you thinking on to increase the E value for take care to fast moving vehicle, but this may affect on the slow moving vehicle. So now we have to compromise between the fast and slow moving. How I'm going to compromise here, we are compromising in the speed of the design speed of the vehicle. So what we are compromising here, we are taking the 75% of the design speed neglecting the lateral friction. So here where we are trying to reduce the 25% of the design speed and taking the 75% of the design speed and that the speed is suitable for both slow moving and fast moving vehicle. So whatever you are trying to calculate the E value, it is for 75% of the design speed. Whatever the given value, you have to multiply the 75% and take that speed for designing the super elevation. Here the sentence holds good only whenever the maximum super elevation is allowed up to 7%. So beyond that, again, we have to redesign the, either we have to increase the radius or we have to decrease the, your speed of the vehicle. Now how we are going to design this super elevation considering the 75% design speed. So let us understand the different steps here. You can see the first steps, I'm calculating the 75% of the design speed where we in meter per second RK MPH. Here whatever the, here we are neglecting the lateral coefficient of friction here. So 0.75V square by 127R where V is in KMPH. So now you simplify this, taking the 0.75 in the denominator that is 127 divided by 0.75 square, that gives me approximately the value of 225R. Now here we in KMPH. Now calculate the E value using this 75% of the design speed. See that the E should not exceed the maximum given value of 7%. So if it is not exceeding, you can stop the design and provide whatever the obtained value here. If the E value exceeds the 7%, that is the maximum super elevation of 7%. We have to go for step two. What we are trying to do in the step two. So if it is exceed 7%, take the maximum super elevation of 7% and check your the lateral coefficient of friction in the third step. So assume the maximum super elevation of 7% and now you have to check the coefficient of friction that is F value here. Again you use the basic equation that is E plus F equal to V square by 127R. Here the E value is exceeded. So we are assumed that it is a maximum value of 7%. Put the E value as 0.07 and calculate the what is the lateral coefficient of friction. Suppose here the lateral coefficient of friction comes lesser than 0.15, then you can stop the design here and provide the maximum super elevation of 7% over here. In case if the F value exceeds the 0.15, we have to restrict the speed in the step four. Now we will go to the step four because both E value is also exceeding the maximum value of 7% and F is also exceeding the 0.15. Now we have left out with the restricting this your design speed. Again using your basic equation of E plus F equal to V square by 127R and you put the maximum value of E as 0.07 and F as 0.15 and you cross multiply this, the addition. So you're going to calculate the allowable speed that is VA equal to square root of 27.94R where R is in the radius of the curve in meter and V in kmph. So this is how you calculate the allowable speed. But the check that this allowable speed is more than the design speed. That is the we are expecting that. And here if the allowable speed calculate above is higher than the design speed then the design speed is adequate and provide a superlation of 0.07. In case this allowable speed is lesser than the design speed, then we have to limit your speed lesser than the allowable speed and put the warning sign, sign, the speed regulation sign. So either if you have tried to avoid this kind of the alignment because your allowable speed is coming lesser than the design speed. So it means that the curve radius if there is a chance of increasing the curve radius you go for increasing the radius otherwise you have to put the warning signs and the speed regulation sign. Let us understand this whole process of designing the superlation with this example. The speed is given as 80 kmph and radius is 200 meter and F is 0.15. So calculate your design the superlation and there is one constraint given here. Due to the side constraint we are not able to increase the radius. So in case we have a restriction of the radius so you can calculate the allowable speed on this horizontal curve of 200 meter because we are unable to increase the radius due to the side constraint. So let us see how we are going to solve this one. So as the first equation step one I will be taking the superlation for 75% of the design speed that is V square by 225R. Now you see that the value which we obtained here it is 0.142 it is more than 0.07 it is approximately coming 10.42 it is more than 7%. Now as per the steps we have studied we have to assume that the E value is given as 0.07 and check your lateral coefficient of friction in the step three here. So take E value as 0.07 and check the what is F value here. Again using the E plus F equal to V square by 127R and put the E value as 0.07 and calculate the F value here. The F value I got it is 0.18 again it is more than 0.15. So again it is exceeding 0.15 and as per the step process we know that we have to calculate the allowable speed for this particular design speed. So in the step four we will calculate the allowable speed using the this equation square root of 27.94 into R here R is given as 200 meter. Now it is again we are expecting that VA should be more than design speed. Here in this case you see that VA is coming less than 80 kmph. In this case we have to provide the allowable speed is lesser than this. So say 70 kmph is the allowable speed and we are not allowing the 80 kmph here. We have to restrict the allowable speed to 70 kmph and put this the warning signs and regulation sign because here we are unable to increase the radius and due to that and we don't have option to go for real element also. So in this case you have to put the warning signs and speed regulation sign saying that this curve is designed for lower design speed. So this is how we calculate the this super elevation for a given radius and speed. These are the references I have used for preparing this presentation. Thank you.


Position of adverbs in English sentences from espressoenglish.net Adverbs are words that describe verbs, adjectives, other adverbs, or clauses. Adverbs often answer the questions, how, and in what way. For example, she sings beautifully. The adverb beautifully answers the question, in what way does she sing? He runs very fast. The adverbs very fast describe the verb run. How fast does he run? Very fast. I occasionally practice speaking English. The adverb occasionally describes the verb practice. How frequently do I practice? Occasionally. The position of an adverb in the sentence depends on what type of adverb it is. Here are some general guidelines. Do not place an adverb between a verb and its object. For example, you can say, I carefully painted the house, or I painted the house carefully. But don't say, I painted carefully the house. This is incorrect. It just doesn't sound natural because the adverb carefully is in the middle between the verb, painted, and its object, the house. You can say, I sometimes read a book before bed, or sometimes I read a book before bed. You can even say, I read a book before bed sometimes. This is okay. It's just informal. But don't say, I read sometimes a book before bed. This doesn't sound natural. Again, because the adverb sometimes is in between the verb, read, and its object, a book. There are three normal positions for adverbs. The front position is when the adverb is at the beginning of a clause. For example, suddenly the phone rang. Fortunately, nobody was injured. Maybe I'll go for a walk. The mid position is when the adverb is next to the main verb. For example, I always exercise before work. They have completely forgotten about our appointment. He was probably late for the interview. She slowly began to recover. As you can see, the adverb slowly comes next to, usually before, the main verb, began. And the end position, when the adverb is at the end of a clause. For example, you speak English well. Please sit there. They ate dinner quietly. The position of adverbs depends on their type, and some can be used in various positions. Adverbs of manner include words like quickly, slowly, easily, happily, well, hard, fast, badly, and seriously. The adverbs of manner that end in LY can be in the mid position, before the main verb, or the end position. For example, she easily passed the test, or she passed the test easily. Adverbs of manner that do not end in LY, like well, hard, and fast, occur in the end position, after the main verb. For example, they dance well. He's working hard. She runs fast. Adverbs of time and frequency usually come at the front or end position. For example, we went to Australia last year, or last year we went to Australia. We don't usually say we went last year to Australia. Adverbs of time and frequency that end in LY usually come at the mid or end position. For example, let's meet weekly to discuss this, or I call my mother daily. Always and never go in the mid position before the verb. I always wake up early. He never gets angry. Other adverbs of time and frequency can go in various positions. For example, soon you'll be finished with school. You'll soon be finished with school. You'll be finished with school soon. Occasionally we drink wine. We occasionally drink wine. We drink wine occasionally. These three sentences are all correct, but again, do not say we drink occasionally wine, because this commits the error of putting the adverb between the verb, drink, and its object, wine. Adverbs of place usually go at the end or mid position. For example, the children are playing outside. The glass shattered and the pieces flew everywhere. They drove south, or southward, on the highway. He walked towards the police station. Connecting adverbs show the relationship between events or ideas. For example, however, anyway, then, next, similarly, additionally, furthermore, and otherwise. And commenting adverbs show us the speaker's attitude or opinion, like fortunately, surprisingly, stupidly, personally, and honestly. Connecting adverbs are usually in the front position. For example, first I went to the bank, then I went to the post office. The test will be difficult, however, the students are well prepared. He doesn't have a job. Furthermore, he's not interested in finding one. Commenting adverbs are also usually in the front position. For example, I dropped my wallet on the street. Surprisingly, an honest person found it and gave it back to me. They showed me all the products available. Honestly, I didn't like any of them. Although for some connecting and commenting adverbs, other positions are possible. For example, they showed me all the products available. I didn't like any of them, honestly. They showed me all the products available. I honestly didn't like any of them. Now let's talk about adverbs of certainty. The adverbs maybe and perhaps are usually in the front position. For example, maybe we'll go out to eat tonight. Perhaps I should explain further. Other adverbs of certainty usually go in the mid position. For example, we'll probably go out to eat tonight. I should definitely explain further. He clearly made a mistake. That's certainly not the case. Emphasizing adverbs are words like very, really, extremely, terribly, quite, pretty, and almost. These usually go in the mid position immediately before the word they describe. For example, we're very tired. Their new house is really impressive. He plays the piano extremely badly. This lesson is pretty easy to understand. The employees are terribly underpaid. That's quite generous of you.

The National Association of Nigerian Student Nantes has called on the traditional leaders, some of whom are vice-chancellors in public universities across the country, to intervene and put an end to the lingering ask-to-strike. The union says there is not enough commitment to be demonstrated by the parties concerned to bring an immediate end to the strike that has caused disarray in the academic calendar of universities. Speaking of the secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists NUJ Cardinal Council, chairman task force on end-ask-to-strike Dominic Phillips says Nantes cannot sit back and watch the students' future and the future of the nation being wasted. A lot of Nigerian students have lost a complete academic section due to these unwarranted disputes between the federal government and ASU, not counting those that have lost their lives or involved in one casualty or the other due to the protracted ask-to-strike. To us, the ask-to-strike is germane, and the only way to save public higher education across the nation from total collapse is to properly invest in the educational sector. The leadership of the National Association of Nigerian Students will continue to grant all the nation public assets from rules to reports, including Nigeria's authority if the federal government through the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Labor fail to resolve with the leadership of the academic staff union of universities in no distant time.

The United States unveils B-21 Raider stealth bomber. America's newest long-range stealth bomber B-21 was unveiled on Friday. The B-21 Raider is a 6th generation stealth fighter, which will be able to deliver both conventional and nuclear weapons around the world, using long-range and mid-air refueling capabilities. Developed by North Group Grammar Corporation, B-21 is the first new American bomber aircraft in over 30 years and is expected to replace B-1 and B-2 bombers. The U.S. Air Force will buy at least 100 of the planes that are projected to cost around $550 million dollars each. The U.S. defense secretary, Lord Austin, has described B-21 as impressive, dressing that no other long-range bomber can match its efficiency. Even the most sophisticated air defense systems will struggle to detect the B-21 in the sky. Austin said it's an unveiling of the bomber. The release of the new stealth bomber comes amid arms race with China as well as high-altitude tension with Beijing and Moscow. Earlier Pentagon released a report which says that China has doubled the number of nuclear warheads and could have around 1500 nuclear warheads by 2035.


Hi there and welcome. I'm the Technician Project and today's tutorial is going to show you the format image settings within Microsoft Word. We're going to start our tutorial off in Microsoft Office today. Please see my previous video how to create a project and save it in Microsoft Office. So once you click on your image within Microsoft Office, you've got the picture format icon appears in the toolbar at the top and you have all these different settings you can do to your image to adjust what you want to do to your image. So we're just going to play with some of the settings today just to show you what they can do. So color saturation is one of the settings you can use. So you can change the color of your picture to gray or to bright purple or whatever.  If you double click on your image picture format will appear or single click and it will appear. So I'm going to change the color, recolor of my bottom image as well. I'm going to remove the background of my top image. Now this is a bit funky and it doesn't really work too well, but I'm going to click on my text to reappear that. But I don't want the background to appear. Once I'm happy with that, I'll click keep changes and don't worry about the purple because that's telling me what's disappearing. So it's now kept the text but remove the image. I'm going to add some artistic effects to my bottom image now that this will help with different aspects of your word document. If you're doing an arty word document or if you're doing something you want to look a bit more fancy, these effects will help. So I'm just going to put a really obtuse effect on which is this bottom one here. There we go. Now I've really destroyed my images here. Now this is a non-destructive format. I've still got my original copies in my documents folder. I can describe what picture what the pictures mean by clicking on alt text and I'm just going to put this is the end card for my technician project and generate description for me. I've generated a description for that picture. So if I export that picture, it will have a description to it too.  So you can fill, you can do all sorts of extra options. You can change the transparency of the image. You can change the transparency of the background of the fill settings. There's all sorts of different options within Microsoft Word which will go into more detail in later tutorials. If you enjoyed the video today, please leave a like rating and subscribe for more. Thank you for watching and see you next time.
