Thank you, Presiding Officer. In opening the debate, I acknowledge that… We are here to discuss the Hobbeath park in Two's and that was established by investment of £7 million from the Scottish Government and £2.5 million for Europe ac nid oeddwn yn gweithio dafnod a'r cyfnod o'r cyfnod â'r cyfnod, ac yn nid oedd y minister yn ei gael i'r cyfnod Cysiwr Park Calahan yn y cyfnod i'r cyfnod o'r ffasiliaid.

A rail hall at Hallbeath would help to take some of the pressure off the rail hall and car parts at the Enver Keaton station, which is a greatly improved choice at Hallbeath, as well as taking the pressure off that station. Hallbeath is strategically llwyddiad cyfle yn ei gael, i'r 90, y 90 i'r 92, i cael ei gael, ac yn gyffin i ysgolio'r ysgol crimes yn sprwm bwrdd yng nghymraegion bryddiol. Eich hyn o ymgyrchol cyfle y diwylliant y nytr 2009 efallai'r parking ride bus-site a parking ride rail hall, ac i gyd yn lleffyng yng Nghymbr Caedyn a Hall-Breath. The first step in achieving that objective would be to put the rail hall in. This could be linked to the five-circle route and give people access to the railway that is currently operated. This would also achieve the aim of making public transport more competitive with the car by providing visible and accessible park and choose by adding a rail hall and increasing the choice. Currently there are 23 million vehicles crossing the fourth road bridge every year. Approximately 3,500 vehicles per hour flown into Edinburgh and the Lodians. Peak times trains running southbound are eight per hour with an average of 400 passengers per train. So 3,200 passengers an hour meaning that over 10,000 passengers every morning coming out of five by train into Edinburgh and the Lodians. There are over 100 train services each day in each direction. I believe that it makes sense therefore to build a rail hall at Hallbeath. Indeed if you look at the traffic flows onto the bridge, 20 per cent of the traffic comes from Perth and can cross down the M90, passing Hallbeath, a park and choose and then onto the bridge. 25 per cent of the traffic comes from Kirkwde Glenrothes area along the A92, passing the park and choose and on to the bridge. 29 per cent of that traffic comes from Dunfermline next to the park and choose and on to the bridge. In the medium term it makes even more sense to make the investment that would see the construction of a direct dual track link between Invercadence and Hallbeath to the park and choose. Such an investment would reduce train journeys times between Edinburgh to Perth, Aberdeen and Inverness as well as to five services and would improve the access to the port of Rhesaith and in doing so would be an economic boost to the port itself. The Hallbeath park and choose would then I believe be at full capacity which is currently 100 cars park in places and we would have a good problem in having to look for more car parking places. Not just cars, the park and choose has buses running into it from communities across Fife so the investment that I am calling for would mean we would have a proper integrated public transport system. So step one is the rail hall and then step two is the new rail link direct between Invercadence and Hallbeath. Such a development would improve journey times and connections to tackle congestion and the lack of integration and connections in transport that impact on the potential for continued economic growth both in Fife and in the east of Scotland. It would also be reducing emissions, tackling the issues of climate change, air quality and health improvement and it would also be accessible and affordable given people a choice of public transport where availability means better quality transport services and value for money and an alternative to the car. I am totally committed to better transport links between Edinburgh and Glasgow because I recognise that they are the two cities that are the key drivers of the Scottish economy but crucial to that strategy is the city region agenda and the city region link and crucial to that in the east of Scotland is the investment into the Fife infrastructure including the railways. Creating a new rail link between Invercadence and Hallbeath is crucial to that connectivity and putting in place as a first step the rail hall and the station at the park and choose is what I am calling for today. I am grateful for the members that have stayed for the debate and I hope that we can progress this in the interest of the east of Scotland economy. Many thanks. We now turn to the open debate speeches of around four minutes and I call Annabelle Ewing to be followed by Cara Hilton. Thank you, Presiding Officer. I would like to congratulate Alex Rowley on securing this debate this evening and as you know Presiding Officer I am afraid that I will not be able to stay for the entire debate or to hear the minister's response and I apologise to you at the outset and also to the minister and to the member but I will of course look forward to reading the debate in the official report tomorrow. It is clear that the Hallbeath park and ride scheme, funded principally by the Scottish Government as we have heard, has been a great success notwithstanding that it only opened in December or late November last year and indeed the offer of some 1,000 potentially free car parking spaces including 48 disabled bays and 12 electric car charging bays is hugely attractive to the residents of Cowdenbeath and Firmland and indeed the surrounding area and that is why this excellent facility is being enthusiastically made use of by five residents and it is worth mentioning too that there are also facilities at the hub building which is important for the convenience of travellers using the facility but looking to the future it is to be noted that the strategic transport projects review recommendations do include a railway line between Inverkeething and Hallbeath in the form of a new double track rail link and as far as I understand it, while such a development would not see a significant reduction in passenger journey times the greater benefit would be indeed in respect of freight transportation as far as Recythe Port is concerned and that would of course be very welcome and I note that Alex Rowley of course welcomed that potential as well and of course the strategic transport projects review covers a 20-year period to the year 2032 so it is clear that the timing of any such development will obviously depend on resources becoming available and in that regard I think it is worth pointing out that we in this Parliament do not at this time control all our resources but rather operate by way of a fixed budget metered out by Westminster so instead of controlling 100% of our tax base we control the miserly sum of 7% and added to that we have seen since 2010-11 a cut of over 25% to our capital budget and hence I would submit that any calls for major capital expenditure must be considered within that constrained budgetary context constraints I would add that those like myself who advocate a yes vote do not consider acceptable in what could be the 14th richest country in the world but of course this SNP Government has made considerable investment in our transport network notwithstanding the constraints currently applicable and a key example I would suggest of that as far as residents of Fife are concerned is the new fourth crossing and there will be I think importantly related bus lanes included already in the M9 and M90 links to facilitate shorter travel times between Halbyth and Edinburgh as far as the rail halt itself Halbyth is concerned I did in fact recently write to Cestran because I note that on the face of the STPR recommendations there's not provision for a rail halt and in reply from Cestran to me dated 9 April of this year they responded and I quote in answer to your specific question I can advise scheme does not feature in the Cestran and Fife council projects in our bid for the Scottish stations fund and I was a bit surprised by that because of course there is a 30 million Scottish stations fund and it's not clear to me why it has not yet been considered a priority to have commenced the preparatory work that would be needed to be carried out prior to making such an application to that fund so in conclusion Presiding Officer I hope that Cestran and Fife council changed their minds that they do prioritise this suggestion and ensure that the preparatory work can now be commenced with a view to making that application and finally Presiding Officer whilst they're at it I would like to suggest that they also have a look at the lack of reasonable disabled access to Cowdenbeath train station and see what can be done to tackle that long-standing problem thank you Presiding Officer Many thanks and I now call Cara Hilton to be followed by Jane Baxter Thank you Presiding Officer can I begin by congratulating Alec Rowley on securing this member's debate on Hallbeath park and ride while the park and ride itself is inside Alec's Cowdenbeath constituency Hallbeath village is in my constituency and it's a facility that's accessed by a large number of my constituents across Dunfermline and West Fife Hallbeath itself is a rapidly growing and changing area hundreds of new houses have been built right next to Hallbeath village and many more are in the pipeline in the nearby Shepherd offshore site and in the wider Drillock area Indeed I met with NHPC recently and they told me that there's more house completions in this area than in any other part of Scotland and while that's good news for the area, I represent the infrastructure that we presently have including the schools and the transport links have struggled to keep pace with change. One of the biggest issues that constituents are raising with me is difficulty parking at train stations with most car parks in the area full by 8 o'clock in the morning making it difficult to access train services into Edinburgh and beyond many commuters from across Fife and Perthshire park at Inverkeith and train station which is struggling to cope with demand for many of my constituents there is simply no option but to face the traffic and drive across the 4th bridge as Alec Rowley has already said 23 million vehicles across the 4th road bridge every year that's around 30,000 a day from Monday to Friday every week Transport Scotland have found that 29% of all journeys across the 4th bridge start at Dunfermline the majority commuting into the Edinburgh area for work and that's a flow that's only going to increase as Dunfermline's population continues to expand as people take advantage not only of Dunfermline being a fantastic place to live but also of the house prices being substantially lower than the Edinburgh area at Hallbeith park and ride there are a thousand car parking spaces it's already a popular transport hub catering not just for those who want to park and ride but also those who want to car share but it could be much more a place location just off the M90, A90, A92 corridor and off the 5th railway circle means it's ideally placed as Alec Rowley has said to be one of Scotland's key multimodal transport interchanges a train station and rail hall at Hallbeith would be a huge boost for my constituents in Dunfermline for Fife and for Scotland a real boost for our local economy, for local jobs and for local businesses and it would provide much needed infrastructure to support the ever grown eastern expansion in my area as a new expansion plan for the north of Dunfermline it would also make public transport more accessible and more of a viable alternative improving journey times into Edinburgh and beyond not just for Fife first but for all those travelling by train between Aberdeen, Inverness, Perth and Edinburgh and crucially it would also help in the drive to ensure that Scotland meets its ambitious climate change targets reducing air pollution levels and carbon emissions a link to that must be an investment in making Hallbeith Park and Chws more accessible to pedestrians and here I'd like to commend the excellent work of Living Streets Scotland who have been working closely with Hallbeith tenants and residents association in my constituency to help improve the environment for pedestrians of all ages and abilities one of the key long-term issues raised by local residents is access to the Hallbeith facility because currently unless you travel there by car or bus it's simply there's simply no safe way for local residents to get there from Hallbeith or from the Duloc area Both Transport Scotland and Fife council need to do more then to make the Hallbeith facility a genuine travel option for many of my constituents who either don't have a car or simply want to leave the car at home One of the six Transport Scotland objectives for the ScotRail franchise is to improve accessibility to services and stations and so it's absolutely vital that any plans for a new railway station would include accessible, well-lit walking routes so that the local community on its doorstep can walk or cycle there safely Clearly as Alec has already highlighted this all comes at a cost but I believe that this is an investment that the Scottish Government should be prepared to make an investment that will deliver real returns not just for Fife but for Scotland it's time to be more ambitious for our railways and for the public transport cycling and walking network across Scotland Alec's already asked the minister to commit to ensuring that the funding is in place to make this a reality and I would echo his request, I hope that today the minister will confirm that the funding and timescale for this vital and strategically important project will be put in place because it will make a huge difference not just to the Fife economy and to Fife commuters but to Scotland Many thanks, can I remind members that it's important to use full names as a matter of accessibility Jane Baxter who will be then followed by the minister Thank you Deputy Presiding Officer I too would like to add my congratulations to Alec Rowley for securing this member's debate on the Hallbeath Park and Ride The new fourth bridge is an exciting development and one which is essential to the continued growth of Fife and indeed of Scotland's economy and one for which I and other Labour Party members in Fife campaigned over a long period There has been a huge increase in West Fife's population in recent years and improved transport links over the fourth are needed to support the economies of Edinburgh, Fife and the central belt Since I became an MSP I have become a regular user of public transport between Fife and Edinburgh and have gained an insight into the trials and tribulations of the travel choices facing commuters from West Fife Like many other commuters, the decision to take the car, bus or train is influenced by the weather, my diary and things that have to do later in the day which might include work or family commitments, shopping or even socialising and timing is critical I have learned that the car parks at Inverkeething, Recythe, Dunfermintown and Queen Margaret stations are usually full on weekdays by 8 o'clock and it's often standing room only on the peak time trains between Edinburgh and Fife and if you do have to use your car to drive over the bridge the traffic on the approach can often tail back well beyond the junctions of the M90 and then of course you have to find somewhere to park at an affordable rate when you do get to Edinburgh Car sharing is of course an option but in my own experience, despite there now being three Libre MSPs travelling from West Fife to the Scottish Parliament every day different schedules can make car sharing difficult So although it has only been open a matter of months, the success of the new park and ride at Hall Beath and boosting bus travel is entirely understandable That said, I think there is more which could be done and I'm pleased that the motion recognises the opportunity to increase the potential of the scheme because we now have 1000 spaces at Hall Beath where the choice for car drivers is limited to bus or car share This in a facility which is surrounded by new housing development in the eastern expansion at Dunfermint, at Kelty just off an extension on the M90 and the village of Crossskates which is located right beside the park and ride and which has seen several new neighbourhoods added to the village in recent years and is still growing I believe there is much that could be done to improve the value of the site in promoting model shift away from car use and the most obvious improvement would be the installation of a rail halt and a railway station There is a clear demand for this and as I mentioned earlier many of the car parks at stations in West Fife are often full to overflowing which creates inevitable overspill into surrounding streets and inconvenience for local residents It has even been suggested that some of the well documented parking problems at Queen Margaret hospital are caused by overspill parking from the nearby Queen Margaret station and although I live in Dunfermint and it's only 1.6 miles from my house to the station I do tend to take the car to the station Walking is not always convenient and for many people it's not possible because of time constraints or mobility problems so access to transport interchanges is a key factor in considering whether the travelling public will use them and I should also like to thank at this point Living Streets who have made me aware of the work they did with residents of Hall Beath which has called for improvements to the local environment for pedestrians of all ages and abilities and the removal of barriers and creation of new paths in the local community which should bring the opportunity for local residents as well as those arriving by car to use a new facility This is something I'll be asking Fife Council to keep on its radar Until just a few weeks ago I was a Fife Councillor for Crossgates where the park and ride is cited and the community council regularly complained to me that firstly the facility should be called Crossgates Park and Ride and secondly that it should be accessible to pedestrians and cyclists from their village Having failed to get the name changed I'm keen to do what I can to widen access for local people Crossgates has a proud record of environmental activism which they want to see extended to their travel choices and similarly there is an access issue in Cowdenbeath whose train station is just over three miles from the new park and ride Anyone who made the journey to Cowdenbeath for the recent by-election will know that the station is not currently accessible for people with mobility problems and there is no adjacent taxi access or parking A new rail halt, whilst not in the town itself could provide additional accessible options for rail travellers in Fife whilst easing the pressure on stations like Cowdenbeath because at the heart of the park and ride and any public transport development should be a commitment to the needs of those who use the services and those who could be encouraged or assisted to do so and equally important is to improve the quality of life for people who live around railways stations and other transport hubs in the surrounding communities The facility has the potential to deliver model shift support low-carbon options increase local access and provide for increased mobility and this must surely be our aim Many thanks and can I now invite Keith Brown to respond to the debate Minister, do you have around seven minutes please? Thank you, Presiding Officer and can I also congratulate Alec Rowley on securing this debate which I think might be his first member's debate so congratulations to him He has raised an important issue which is important not just to the people of Fife but everyone who travels across the fourth which I do myself on a regular basis using that route as well and I think as a number of members have said the benefits of the whole beef park and ride scheme are undeniable I was as Alec Rowley mentioned very pleased to go on to both the start of the works and also the completion and it's a fantastic facility also delivered by a local company with Fife Council it does provide additional capacity as has been mentioned for Edinburgh commuters it provides an alternative interchange for journeys across Fife and it provides a service for travellers to Edinburgh airport as well it also provides a further facility for longer distance coach services and that project together with the existing and highly successful Embrokeething park and ride which was mentioned earlier complements the force replacement crossing the Queensferry crossing which is the largest civil engineering scheme in Scotland for a generation and when it opens in 2016 bus passengers using the park and ride facilities will enjoy substantial journey time reductions it will become a public transport the existing bridge will become a public transport corridor at that time and those reductions of up to 30 minutes between Hall Beef and West Edinburgh are due to our investment in new motorway bus lanes and the creation of a dedicated public transport corridor on the existing fourth bridge much of what we'd want to do in terms of transport comes down to an issue of resources and I would say that even within five councils area and this can be replicated across Scotland we have demands for the St Andrews rail link we have demands for rail development leaving and if you take that in addition to the £1.4 billion which has been spent on the fourth crossing the money which is spent on the park and ride which has been linked to the fourth crossing as well there is substantial investment and there are substantial demands for further investment which is true across the country but there has to be a level of prioritisation in relation to that we have had as has been mentioned by Annabelle Ewing's substantial cuts over a quarter of our capital budget cuts since 2010-11 despite that we have sought to try and maintain our investment in Scotland's infrastructure and some of the points mentioned by members about the pressure on train station parking facilities is also down to the fact that we're seeing record numbers of passenger journeys by a train up to £85 million and there has been substantial investment in our rail infrastructure with another £5 billion over the next control period I was interested in the point that Kara Hilton made about walking to the park and ride and I would say to her that there is scope just now Fife Council can bid for the Sustrans money which she made available for joint projects and I think it's welcome that she's mentioned this because very often it's talked about only in relation to cycling and it's important and as she said that it should be well lit and it should feel safe to the people that want to use it so there is scope to do that just now and I'm certainly interested in listening to any proposals which would have to come forward with the co-operation of Fife Council in relation to that but we're happy to look at that I would say also in relation to the importance of infrastructure we recognise that's important to sustain our economy again as Alec Rowley said provide access to opportunities and to bring our communities together and they've helped to deliver that in the midst of constructing those we've also managed to help the economy in terms of jobs, these capital projects tend to be labour intensive we remain committed to delivering the recommendations of the 2008 strategic transport project and that review includes the ever-caring haul beef line although it is over the timescale that was mentioned previously by Annabelle Ewing and the reason for that is to make sure we can do these things as and when resources allow and it has to be conditional on delivering the funds to deliver these projects but we do accept the fact that the ever-caring haul beef line will deliver benefits, we recognise that and some of the benefits have been mentioned we don't have the current plans just now to open a railway station at the Hallbeath Park and Ride site we do remain committed to improving access to the Scottish rail network and when I attended the opening with local council representatives the point was made to me about the station and the availability of the £30 million station investment fund and I suppose probably anticipated as Annabelle Ewing said a proposal would come forward it really has to be done first of all with Fife Council and the local regional transport partnership they will have to go through a process of looking at the first of all probably a stag process to look at whether this is a priority whether a rail halt is the best investment we can make we do that with all of our rail investments it's not enough simply to say that's what we should have it has to be evidenced by a proper study so for those who wish to have a station at Hallbeath I would suggest as a first step as we're saying around the country that they discuss the proposals with the regional transport partnership Cestran and Cestran in turn can assess the proposal in line with their local and regional transport priorities and if Cestran wish to progress the proposal they'll undertake as I've mentioned a transport appraisal in line with stag guidance and that work will first identify if there's a need for improved transport connectivity in the area and if so that all potential transport options not just rail are considered objectively that's not to say you wouldn't do rail but you have to say that's why that's the best investment to make so that's the route that I would recommend promoters to take I'll just say briefly our commitment to railways I think has reflected in the £5 billion package of funding and investment until 2019 that will support major projects and improvements to infrastructure the impact that was mentioned of the next ScotRail franchise next year will have very exciting franchises in operation and the specification for the ScotRail and Caledron and Sleeper franchises underlines the Government's commitment to providing enhanced rail services across Scotland we're keen to see improvements across the network to ensure that rail is competitive with travel by car and our desire for improvement relates to all aspects of the journey experience including improvements to the passenger environment, onboard service service frequency as well as the journey time reductions which have been mentioned already to and from major cities so I do believe in concluding that our transport record of investment is substantial and it stands for itself I'm very proud of the investment that we've made and will continue to make and just to underline the obvious point perhaps that an efficient transport network in Scotland creates employment, it stimulates growth which in turn creates conditions of advantage and opportunity, allows business access to a skilled workforce and enables businesses to deliver goods and services to market and on the central point about the development of rail services I reiterate my point that a discussion with Cestran and the council will be the first port of call Thank you


In my last video covering the brand new Dragon Ball game, I discussed how it's already facing major problems with the strength of green decks like Broly's and Gohan's. But if these two Saiyans are the problem, then we need to turn to the solution. That's gotta be racist. If the green deck excels with ramping up into the late game and out resourcing any other opponent, the yellow leaders aim to end the game very early on, before the green decks can even really play. So here's the deck list I'm gonna be rocking with, the only catch is I'm a green player myself, so I'm kinda new to this whole thing. If you like Dragon Ball videos, make sure to leave a like and subscribe to the channel, cause there's a whole lot more coming up. Alright, so let's see if I can actually get any of the cards I need before we go in. This is a complete waste of gems. I should not be doing this for this deck. And no reds, so I'm already pretty sad. Alright, do I just skip this? Why am I even opening this? Am I just opening this game again? We gotta skip. Oh, we actually got a Frieza! Yeah! A Frieza and a Cooler! That actually wasn't a waste. Alright, well now hold on, I gotta improve the deck. So here we are, we are going up against a green deck. Wait, no that's not green, never mind, I thought the color mattered. It's gonna be Cooler versus Goku. Ooh, he had that cool card art too. Now, is this a good opening hand? I would actually say that it's okay.  I'm kinda looking for draw power, but again, I haven't really mastered this deck all too much. Uh, I mean, I'll take the double sorbet, right? Double sorbet seems pretty good. We're also going second. Alright, real quick, I need to check if this is the Goku I'm thinking of. He's running the Super Saiyan Goku. This guy's actually pretty decent. Super Saiyan Goku's a pretty decent red deck. It gives him a lot of flexibility on both offense and defense. I'm gonna go ahead, I'm gonna charge the Niez. Charging Niez I think is pretty safe here. We have two energy. I'm not really gonna, I'm not really gonna do all that. I could have maybe even played the Niez, but that's, that's getting a little wild. We're gonna draw, we're gonna get the, ooh, that's a little crispy. Speaking of crispy, the best thing to do with this deck is to strike as fast as possible as our leader does have critical. Which means we're gonna take his life and instead of adding the card to his hand, it'll just go to the graveyard instead. So with 20,000, we wanna swing on Goku as often and as many times as possible. And he lets it go through, so that's one card direct to the graveyard. When he lose, he lost a 2-drop 18, so pretty good.  But yeah, with Yellow Dex like Cooler and Frieza, uh, you really wanna strike fast. It's pretty much any critical deck. Honestly, any deck that isn't green, you wanna go early. He's striking on me. To be honest, we don't have a lot of ways to draw cards, so we just let that go through. Ah, we do not care. I wanna draw cards too, so getting hit is not that bad. And a 4-drop Cooler, that is a nuts pick up. This card is really strong, one of the strongest in our deck. We'll get into more of why he's so strong when we actually play him. Whoa, what is this card, our Goku? When attacking, choose up to one of your opponent's battle cards with 10,000 or less power and chaos. Damn, for free?   Charge phase, we have some choices to make. I think I'm gonna go with the Ginyu, though, if I'm being honest. Yeah, we'll charge Ginyu here. Alright, so we could go with Sorbet, but I think we actually take this, our blocker, because we get to add one of our life to our hand. And he's also at 20,000 power, so we're probably gonna go with Nies the blocker here. We're gonna go with Nies, and then we get to add a life to our hand, let's see what else we get. So we have all three of these freezes, that's a little crazy. Again, though, we're just gonna go ahead and swing on Goku here with the crit, and boom, we'll take another crit hit, he gets nothing for that. And usually I wouldn't do this, but I mean, I am gonna swing on this 20,000 power. If he wants to save it, he can. I'm not gonna be too pressed, yeah, go ahead, that's fine. Now we can't actually block with Nies, but again, I'm not really too worried about that. So, we'll end our turn there and let our opponent do the talking.  This go on card, very strong, I'm glad we got rid of it when we did. So we're almost, we're one away from being able to awaken our cooler into going into his final form, which gives us access to some crazy plays, which is pretty much why I don't wanna stop this, although I think I kind of will stop this first attack, right? Or do I not? I mean, what's the downside of not stopping it? We pretty much might as well, right? I'll use a Sorbet, I'll use a Sorbet. This might be crazy, this could be rather crazy, because we're not really guarding any effective damage here, and he gets his draw anyway, but I want him to have to swing on me with this go, ooh. Minus 10,000 battle sucks for that. Oh my God, and then he gets the KO, oh, saving it meant nothing, man. Meant nothing, all right. We're gonna take another hit here, go to four, we draw another cooler. Wow, we've got a lot of four drops here. We're probably gonna charge one of these freezes here in a second. We could flip and get the draw, but I'm just gonna let it go through, because he would still hit us anyway, and now we get to have another swing with crit. All right, charge phase comes out. I'm gonna immediately charge the, the birder here. He's not doing much. Now we technically have four energy. I'm gonna go ahead and drop a cooler here. First things first, I may as well attack, I may as well swing for the crit. Swing for the crit, why not? Let's get that health bar down a little bit. Let's get him to go through them resources. He's gonna defend the crit, he doesn't want to get hit. He doesn't want to get hit. All right, now we get to show off the strength of cooler though. Using our extra energy for going second, cooler's gonna come out, and I'm gonna swing on one of these guys, the level three obviously, because cooler's extra effect. When attacking, I get to choose up to one of his battle cards, switch it to rest mode, and if it has a cost of two or less, destroy it. This one has two or less, get crazy, get rid of him. Get rid of him, he's dead. And now that one goes away as well, and now that my cooler's on rest, we're gonna use our ability. We flip, get a Jace, and final form cooler is finally here. Sadly, we didn't get to keep our crit forever, but we're just gonna have to power through this. We're gonna use our ability, have to discard a card here, and by doing that, we get to refresh our cooler. Now I'm a little bit nervous, because he could have some decent plays here, so I don't necessarily want to swing. I'd rather keep a blocker on board, so we're just gonna end it there. But, cooler also gets that destroy ability on block as well, so he has to play around that to be pretty safe. He's gonna draw, but he doesn't power up his card, so we're not gonna block that. No point, his attack does nothing to us. This is where I start to get a little nervous, as a guy that's not good with this deck, though, because we really gotta power through and kill this guy, man. The more he builds up, the more he's gonna get out of our reach to be able to kill him. He used all his energy on something, a three-drop time skip. What does that do? No way, you just get to blow it up for free? 35, hold on, can I read that again? Choose any number of your opponent's battle cards to add up to a total power of 35,000 or less and KO them. That is childish.  I don't care, bro. I'm playing my goddamn cooler again. If you got complaints, take it up with the judge. I'm attacking and then destroying this Roshi. Get him out. Get him out. Offense step, step end. That free attack. Yeah, how's that five feel? Look, I'm attack again. Oh, yeah, you gotta get... Oh, wow, we have all of our super combo cards. Boom, take another attack. I don't care. I don't care. And then I'm gonna use my skill. I'm gonna use my skill. I'm gonna discard a... I'm gonna discard a Ginyu Force because we're not really playing the Ginyu Force engine all too well this duel. And this refresh my cooler. Refresh for the block. Refresh for the block. Refresh for the KO ability. That's still nervous, though. He has four health and we just don't have that many cards on deck. Oh, I'm nervous. I'm not good with this deck, man. I'm not good with this deck. All right, he does get to awaken. He goes Super Saiyan. I believe Super Saiyan has the power. Yeah, choose up to one of your battle cards. It gets 5,000 for the turn. That's really scary. That's really not good for us. He uses one energy. So he's got a one drop. God come at me. Dude, God come at me. He's broken his arm. That is crazy. I should have played around. I should have went with Frieza. God, damn it. I should have attacked with cooler, too. Oh, red. God come at me. So good.  Do we take the hit here? Yeah, we kind of have to. We kind of have to. It's too risky to do anything but take the hit. Oh, that's pretty good for our turn. Might end up being a tad bit of charge fodder here. But Tomo can't be KO'd in battle. We have to take this one, too. All right, we're on one HP. So this is risky. We're probably not going to win this duel, man. Oh, God, damn it. No, no, I can clutch up. I can clutch up. Yeah, now he's making me swing. I mean, he's making me defend, which is just kind of crazy. 5,000 power. This gives us only 10,000, right? Bro, you're great. You're spending currency on this? Okay, so he's at 60,000. So boom, 40, boom, 60. And then just a little 5K on top, surely. All right, so we successfully defend Goku, although it did cost us a fair share of cards. We just need to find a way to do a decent bit of damage here, charge phase. We probably end up just charging the... This is only on my turn. I'm probably going to charge the supernova as crazy as that sounds. It was either that or charge nothing at all. Let's attack just to make sure we... This card can't be KO'd in battle. Okay, so we really don't have any other option but to hit Goku here. That gives us Niez, which is decent. Obviously, we don't combo it though. Do we just get rid of the rest of these guys? It might be the move.  Pretty impressive. We can't even KO him in battle, though. It's just risky, man. It's just risky. But Tomo being here, but Tomo's actually very scary. Wow, he levels that up. I mean, that's fine because I can drop a card. I'm going to drop this because it does nothing for us. We drop that. It does nothing for us. Refresh the Frieza. We swing again. We're going to need it to be able to defend two attacks successfully here. Two attacks. We've got Niez for 10,000 combo power. This is the risky moment though. This is risky. I mean, we're a little bit cooked, but if we can make it to next turn, we have a shot. If he has God, come at me.  If he has... He's got six energy.  All right, so we have to defend that or we die. We can pop out the Niez or the Ginyu. It honestly doesn't matter. I'm going to use the Ginyu. Yeah, we don't need this. All right, Ginyu Force. Charge the energy. We'll live this. We only have so much energy in our hand. Oh man, this is going to be close. If we win this, it's going to be close. I was a little too slow. If I would have attacked with Cooler earlier, instead of getting God, come at me. Odd, we would have been just fine. Defense step. This is where we just charged the Niez. Now, what does he have in his hand with six energy? Surely you don't just end here. He's got something. There's the critical go on, but he doesn't really do much other than that. Okay, he's going to 10,000 to Frieza, but just for the turn, he gets 5,000, putting me at 30, but that's not really anything crazy. There's 10,000. So he's at 40,000, so we need to do a little bit. The hard part here is I really can't afford to get rid of this Frieza, right? But if he has a two drop that can kill, that would be crazy. Surely there's no two drop with 2,500 though, and he already uses his ability. So we're at 40 now. I think the play here, and this is scary. The play here is to use the super card combo. It's scary. This could be wrong. This could be wrong. We basically need to be able to win this next turn, which we just might be able to do. Maybe charge phase. We don't charge any of this. We phase end on that. First things first, we attack with cooler. We attack with cooler to get the draw and before he has any energy to use. That's good. We got an additional power up card at least. Well, we're either going to win or we're going to lose here. Boys, it's Frieza time. Time to drop this four drop Frieza and see if we can get through it. He would need a super guard combo. No, surely he ain't have it. He ain't got it like that. He really doesn't have it like that. Oh my God, do we win? Surely we actually win. Okay, we're going to discard the Raccoon. Refresh our Frieza. Swing for game. Combo the Jace. It's all up to this. Please. Please, bro. Tell me you break. Tell me that hits a brick 10K. Zero. Let's go. Let's go. And he steals the game. The comeback kid strikes again. Let's go. He didn't have any combo fodder in his hand. He overextended it. We snipe a win. I told you if we were going to win, it was going to be close, but you saw the cooler ability come in clutch there. Obviously, you don't want to put yourself into those situations with this deck anyway. I'm just happy we got the win. Let's get into game two. God, this is where my addiction to card games come from, man. I'm on cloud nine right now. Who am I going up against next? A green Broly deck? Bro, I'm going to run this guy over. False confidence hitting crazy right now. I'm changing this. That's way too many supernovas for my comfortability. Oh my God, that three Ginyu strike again. It's not over going second. So that's decent. We've at least got that. Got a Ne'ez as well. Obviously, I would want a sword base. Some draw power would have been great. Maybe this is the universe telling me I should have kept the frog Ginyu. I traded it away. I saw frog Ginyu and Ginyu showed up three more times. All right. So he's got the Moa plays going to search for a Perigus here and he does get the Perigus. That's unfortunate. At least we're going second. I feel like going second with this deck is even better because you really want that first attack. My turn. Nice. All right. Let's charge it up. Ooh, not charging you. I guess we just charge again. You're right. Like we've got three of them. Surely it's not that big of a deal. We could immediately go into a two drop. That seems a little crazy. Probably won't be doing that. And instead I'll probably be going for just the. Wow.  It sucks that Jace is my best opening move, but we'll play them all the same. We'll play a little Jace head here. All right. We'll take a crit. Let's see if we can't get this crit. I think I want to swing with as many people as possible. Right. I'm learning the deck. So I'm not sure if you'd rather keep Jace around to try to make up for like Frieza army. Like we could do that. Right. Like if we wait, then we've got two cards with Frieza army and then we can switch two of our energy back. Then what's the play there? Right. Like it's not worth it. I think we swing with Jace. I think we swing with Jace. Try to get a little more presence in the early game. This could be this is could be wildly wrong though. Don't don't copy my strategy. I'm feeling this one out. I'm learning as we go on. We swing with Jace. I'm feeling iffy about that decision, but it is what it is up next. We're playing the as for sure. Unless anything changes. Oh, a level one Raditz. He might swing on Jace. And if that happens, I think I just damn to Raditz. Rad eye. Yeah. We definitely can't defend Jace now. So if you want to kill Jace, be my get and that's that's messed up that you could do that. I guess that would be the reason why you wouldn't want to swing because then you can give him a free attack authority with that. So yeah, we're let it. He wants to boost that up, bro. Be my guest. You're you're you're taking them anyway. I don't agree with the boost. I do see now that swing with Jace was an unadulterated mistake. It gave him a free attack. I'm honestly surprised he's giving me draw power with Raditz. I'll take that. Boom. Give me that one drop. Nice. And we'll take this hit too. We want to draw. So I see now swing with Jace. That was bad. My turn though. We get a draw. We get a charge phase. I think at this point we just charge a Frieza rat three energy now except we've really only got one. I'll tell you what I'm going to do though. I'm going to swing. I'm going to get that crit. You know me, man. I'm always get that crit against the green deck. I'm swinging on your face until you until you stop me. Crit that's going to the graveyard where you drop. Ooh, a Perigus. An Altar Perigus too. Nice. Well, it's Niaz time. Niaz is going to give me access to one card from my life. So it's kind of like a draw as long as you don't feel the pain. Ooh, and the dual strike Golden Frieza. That's why we always charge to five. Does swing on a Raditz matter? We could block with this, but if we, I mean, if we don't, we're pretty much blocking a Raditz anyway. And then the Raditz doesn't die. So I think we just swing on the Raditz here. I don't know. Again, could be wrong on that one. My thought process was if we don't, we have to block the Raditz anyway. And then I'm going on rest. So whatever. Whatever, dude, it's, it is what it is. It is what it is. And now a two drop Napa. Is he going to swing on Niaz with that? I'm okay with that. He might try to free low attack. No, he's just going to swing with that. All right. Then I'm perfectly fine with that. I'm perfectly fine with that. Now he probably swings with Raditz and Broly here. And we're just going to say yes to both. Or do I say yes to both? Do I awake him? Cause then I don't get my crit. And I think I, I think I want my crit. I think I want my crit. I think I'm going to let this go through. You know what? You got it, man. You got it. You thought I would awaken defensively. Nah. Nah, that ain't me. That ain't me. Oh, if only you knew how little that means to me. You already know the play. I don't know what I, I guess I just charging in you. We have so many of them. So now we're at four energy. Thanks to that extra one. Immediately we play our four drop cooler. Why? Because this man is about to erase this guy's board. Do I want to swing on his face? Let me think. No, not yet cause he would awaken. So we're just going to clear a little bit of the board here. So we're going to swing on spoilers. I, this shouldn't end up mattering cause I'm, I'm swinging all the time, but we'll swing on this for now. This is going to trigger our effect, meaning we immediately erase the blocker. So Raditz, you're getting swung on by cooler. I doubt he'll try to save this. If he does, that's better for us. Nope. No attempt to save, which is perfect right now. Before we flip, we're going to get our crit attack off on the leader. Before we awaken, we will be awakening this turn though. Boom, laser eyes, level four. Welcome to the show. And then boom, flip ability time.  That's huge. Forty attack power, final form cooler. We're about to show the strength. Activate the skill ability, discard one card. We're going to go with, if we drew a raccoon, we could get a crazy play here. I'm going to get rid of the Niez. Is that crazy? Maybe, but I'm, I'm leaving the option open that I might end up playing the, I don't know. I don't know. This is a debatable one. This could be the wrong move, but I will go ahead and get rid of Niez. That'll awaken our cooler again. And what are we going to do with cooler? We're going to swing on Broly one more time, which will allow us to get rid of Napa as well. Napa's gone. We're swing on Broly to make it an even three, three life game only. He's going to have four energy next term. He's got four energy green does nothing with four energy. It does nothing with four energy. We're not afraid. He's got the Paragus, which is going to create a blocker, but again cooler. Oh, a little bit of a crit here. Okay. But he can't really swing on our leader without powering it up. I think he's cooked. I think this duel is over. We went too fast for him. He spent too many cards. I think the duel's over. I think it might be an unwinnable position because next turn we win or less. He does get the awakening boost though. So I think this will let him draw a card. Are we are we afraid though? We've got three life. We can tank two hits. We have no super guard cards, man. That is a little unfortunate. He's going to have to spend some energy though. You've got to spend. You might as well spend it all honestly. If you hesitate, I will spend my read. There you go.  He's at 3500 right now. Murderer out. So that puts us at 40, which means we're good to go, which means defend. Oh, no. He was at 40.  I can't do math on the fly. You know, why doesn't the game do math for you?  Oh, dude. Okay. Well, now we've got to rethink our odds here. What do we charge?  I think we stick to the plan. I think we charge another Ginyu. So now we're at four. We can do the four drop free so we can we can't even attack with cooler because he's that we we can't get past the block. Okay. That's kind of kind of wait, but if I rest him. No, that still does nothing. Oh my God. That is so lame that I can't do math. You should be dead. You should be dead, bro. You're lucky that I actually lack a math. I lack the ability to do math.  I am so pissed. It's crazy. It is crazy. I've got to attack and just boost up, right? I think that's the only player. The only place that I should have attacked first to get the draw.  God, it was my anger. My anger blinded me. All right. We're just going to combo in. So we're at 30. You have to use something there. It doesn't really matter. I guess. I don't know. Erty. I imagine he blocks. He just absorbs Paragus. I mean, that's fine, too. Oh my God. I'm so pissed. I can't even describe to you guys how pissed I am right now. Please add the ability for the goddamn game to do math for you. It's a computer game. It has the ability to do that. I think we all know it has the ability to do that. So now basically there's no point in me actually. Hold on. Let me read. Do I attack just in case? I don't think there's really a reason because then we just after the scar to card. I'm going to discard. I'm giving up on the guinyu engine. The guinyu engine is so dead. So I'm getting rid of you. The guinyu engine is dead here. Refresh the Frieza. I don't think there's a point to swing though. I don't think there's a point on swinging because whatever. Whatever happens. The Frieza is going to happen anyway and he would just have one extra card and we get we're in a potential spot to win next. Ah, we could have been over and down when he's got six energy now. Six energy is scary on green and there it is. And there it is. And there's the six energy drop. Thankfully, it's just a normal Broly. He can't hurt me. I'm going to be fine. This is going to be fine. We're still going to win even though I'm pissed. I just got to calm down. I just got to calm down. I just got to relax. You hit me bro. I don't care. I've got three life. You can hit me as much as you want. I'm not spending resources. Go ahead. Throw the beam in my face. Ow. Draw. And there's my sore bay. Where are my super guard cards? I'm losing it, bro. I'm losing it. I can't believe the math just math me right there. 40,000 GGs. Well played. This this is it has to be over right? What does he have? All right. Scared me there a little bit. Well, we just take this hit. We just take the hit. We're fine. We're going to be okay. We can finally calm down you guys because we made it. All right. We're going to charge the honestly. We're going to be using all of our energy here. Do I just go for a dual strike and try to end it? Like in one foul swoop? That's probably the ideal play. We're not going to have energy to supernova anyway. So I guess we charge. We'll charge this just in case. Again, it's it's we should be fine. We're going to drop the dual strike just because I think it makes the most sense. Go for the game and we'll just we'll throw. I mean, he's perma rested now. So that's not even a worry. 10,000 5000 5000. All right. What do you got for that? What do you got for that? Can you beat that? If you can, it's still not game over for me. I should be fine, but it is what it is. Also, we can definitely just refresh him with cooler anyway. So, you know, it's over dual strike victory. Finally ours after a math mistake. It's going to come a turn late, but it's hard not to be happy. The victory says it all. Shout out to the cooler deck actually going to owe in this video. I thought I was going to go to hopefully you guys enjoyed it. I'm really enjoying this game. I want to cover as many decks as possible and I definitely want to get out of silver. So I'll be seeing you in the next one. Bye.


is the air disc container worth it? In our home, we hardly use ours. In fact, I had to go into our storage area and dig it out. I didn't even know where it was. All that said, the air disc container is really cool.  So today, we're going to show you a few things that it can do. The air disc container and our top three non-dairy uses for the air disc container. But first, here's Shalva explaining to our four-year-old how the air disc container works. There's no sharp blade. It basically pushes air, like pumps air around into it. And what it's going to do is it's going to like break up the lemons and break up the strawberries and make it like cold and sweet and delicious. And then it's done. Like we don't have to strain it or do anything to it. Like it just comes out of here and we get to drink it. And that's actually the origin story of how the air disc container came to be. There was a mixologist in the Cleveland area, I think, that needed a way to make three or four mojitos in a flash, but not sacrifice any of the flavors, the extraction of the oils in the citrus, a seamless experience that a mixologist would approve of, but fast. And that's how it works. The air disc container muddles the ingredients. Using the ice and the disc, the ingredients are muddled and oils are infused, the herbs are muddled, and the drink is chilled, all without watering it down. The ice doesn't get crushed. It just kind of moves around. Michelle from the Culinary Center said it best. And then the ice also kind of helps beat up the lime a little bit. Everything kind of gets beat up instead of pulverized and liquified like a standard Vitamix container. That is that beautiful. How's that for a great holiday drink? So everyone can see what it did to the lime.  So then it allows you to get a really great, homogritic cosmopolitan. And then Vitamix realized what if this could be more than just a commercial beverage maker? Could it be more than just a modeling machine? Chalk it up to clever marketing or engineering or experimentation? But the answer was yes. This thing can do some really cool stuff, especially with dairy and eggs. So aside from modeling, whipping, fresh whip cream with stiff peaks in seconds. What also makes it cool is you can add fresh berries and it will add obviously like flavor bursts to the whip cream, but a unique consistency that you wouldn't get from a standard container. There's like little sort of almost like I want to say like confetti of fruit in the whip cream. So you have modeling, you have whipping, it can emulsify. So a hollandaise sauce without using a whisk, can the air disc container do a better job of emulsifying than a standard Vitamix container? It's hard to say. We haven't tested it. I'd say it's fair to say that it's not going to do a worse job. And if anything, it would do a better job more sort of it's more similar to what a whisk does by adding air instead of just purely like chopping it or like slicing through it with a blade. And finally, the fourth use for the air disc container is Chex notes. Oh foams, hot or cold foams. So take skim milk and we'll talk about this in one second. It can actually do a plant-based milk pretty well to make foams, hot or cold foams for cocktails and specialty coffee drinks. And of course, the container is consumer friendly. So it's BPA free. It's dishwasher safe. And it's compatible with all the Vitamix machines out there. So a scent or legacy machines that works with all of it. What if you're dairy free? What if your whole food plant based is the air disc container worth it then? Hey, use our links. Hey, use our links. Life is no yolk.com forward slash links. Prior to a few days ago, we would have said no, we just use it for batch cocktails. But we put it to the test with a few more things. Here's what we made. First of all, we made the under the radar, but incredibly delicious.  What makes it incredibly awesome? Let me show you. First of all, it's absurdly easy. One lemon, three strawberries and some honey. If you're plant based, you can substitute with another sweetener. So few ingredients and so little of each. Usually with blender recipes that calls for like a zillion strawberries. And then easiest way, pound of berries frozen. Frozen strawberries. Right in there. This used three. If you're making it at home, the strawberry lemonade recipe is one and a half cups of cold water, one lemon or lime if you want to make strawberry limey with the ends trimmed and discarded. And the remainder cut into four equal slices between a quarter and half an inch thick. Basically, you're making wheels. And this is the perfect shape to extract all the juice and the oils most efficiently three strawberries, hauled and quarter two tablespoons honey or whatever sweetener you like and two cups of ice cubes. Well done. You put everything in the order listed and increase the speed to the highest setting and run for 30 to 45 seconds. We like to use the top as a strainer so to pour it right away. Leaving the ice and the the lemon rinds inside. It lasts pretty long. You can put it in the fridge and if you want, you can serve it over ice too to make it extra extra cold. More love for the strawberry lemonade. This recipe is awesome. And finally, finally, I've never had anything like this come out of a blender. The best way to describe it is this is like a hand modeled cocktail, which makes sense. This, you know, the air disk container is a, it's a batch cocktail maker. I mean, if you watch it kind of pour and you can, I mean, you can kind of see through it and it's definitely not a smoothie. It's definitely not juice. It's, it's amazing. I'm going to run on a b-roll to cover all this praise I have for the strawberry lemonade, but it's ice cold and it's bursting with flavors and it's, it's sweet, but not too sweet. Kids like it. You can always add sweetness and it works really well if you want to make it an adult beverage. We took it on a walk and made it a walk tail. For the strawberry lemonade, for all the other types of lemonade you can make like lavender blueberry lemonade. The air disk container may be worth it. The next thing we made was aquafaba fluff. And I need to provide some background here on aquafaba bean water. It's literally the water from a can of cooked chickpeas and it's used for plant based cooking as a, in place of an egg white basically as a binder. It's in our beloved pancake recipe, oatmeal pancakes made with aquafaba. So aquafaba fluff is kind of like a plant based cream. You take three quarters cup aquafaba, one quarter cup powdered sugar, quarter teaspoon of cream of tartar and you slowly ramp to variable speed seven if you have an ascent or a g-series and variable speed five if you have a c-series like a 5200 and you let that run for one minute. Quick side note about the, the noise output of the air disk container, how loud it is. The air disk itself, it's surprisingly quiet and it makes sense. There isn't a lot of ingredients getting thrown against the sides of the container. They're not getting sort of punched and pulverized by a blade. There's less friction. It's just, it's, it's pretty quiet with one exception. It almost sounded like an airplane was taking off, not necessarily loud but the peaks will get stiffer if you wait. The top gets harder because of the cream of tartar and then the kind of heavier liquid falls at the bottom so you scoop it off like a can I poke it on them. But to be clear this is not vegan whipped cream, plant based whipped cream. Like what you would get at a store in an aerosol can which is basically identical to whipped cream. It's a very different consistency and because it uses cream of tartar, it tastes like cream of tartar. It tastes bad. You like the taste of the flop stuff? That's weird. We like healthy food and we like plant-based food but we're too much of foodies for this one. So yeah that one didn't make our top three uses for the air disk container dairy food recipes but we rely on you dependent on your clicky click independent contractors we self-insure in case we're sick. But the next two did beginning with cold foam cappuccino. So cold foam cappuccino is espresso with cold foam on top, cold espresso and the reason you use cold foam is so you're not having warm foam heat up the cold espresso. It's a cold summer drink. Fancy cold summer drink. Anyway we knew that the the air disk container could make cold foam with cold skim milk but could it get the same results with dairy free milks? In the past we've tried almond milk, store-bought cashew milk, oat milk, whatever. We heard that ripple brand and maybe that's not that important but pee protein milk, milk, foams, great and it did. Now to be clear Shalva still imbibes in dairy out of our house and she worked as a barista in high school so she's very particular when it comes to fancy coffee drinks and she knows what they should be. This is the foam big bubbles okay which is not what you want on a no you want little bubbles yeah you want dense bubbles it'll do interesting in a pinch but you want a dense like this should be up to here right now okay three scoops like it's basically just milk with bubbles in it if you do this with skim milk the container would be up to here but I loved it you get this ice cold coffee coming through these foamy bubbles it's a cool experience the best way to describe it is that it was just really fun fun to drink life-changing use case no but more of a must try if you know when when you have one of these things and finally we went back to old faithful we made a batch cocktail the third type of batch cocktail we've made in the air disc container the first being mojitos the second being a pomegranate cosmopolitan with michelle and headquarters and now mint julep mint juleps you take half a cup of bourbon we used an inexpensive brand to save and it kind of reminded us of it smells like it does smell like college college half cup of cold water half a cup of sugar like so much sugar 20 mint leaves and four cups of ice all dad ice top on 30 seconds on variable speed five in the air disc if you want you can garnish with mint of course it's a batch cocktail this thing is made to do it was super good super fun and super easy guys one mistake to avoid with your air disc container uh actually with mint juleps is drink it right away it tastes so good in the fridge the next day the mint juleps tastes like toothpaste and guys thanks so much for supporting our work really appreciate it life is no yoke.com
