In this video, I'm going to explain to you how your thought processes and actually thinking too much can damage your business rather than make it better. So you know that people normally associate thinking with progress in business because when you think about new ideas, problems to solve, etc., it seems like you're making progress. The thing is that our minds, the way it's built, is that it always seeks out problems. So within the very model, the very kind of the workings of your mind, your thinking, is the seeking of problems. So that means that as long as you're thinking, really pay attention to that right now, as long as you're thinking, whether it's in a relationship, in business, or in any area of life, it's always a problem that you're trying to solve a situation that you're trying to improve. Thinking can't be like, this is great, because if everything's great, there's nothing to do. Okay, let's move on to the next thing to think about. So inherently, whenever you think you're problem solving, and when somebody can't stop thinking, he's constantly problem solving. But the problem is that the mind doesn't care if it's a good problem, if it's a bad problem. What the mind cares about is that there's a problem, and it needs to be solved right now. So when you're in business, you often find yourself thinking, oh, I need to do this and this and this and this and this, and you need to take care of this and this. And because you can't stop thinking and your mind keeps coming up with problems to solve, you're just kind of fiddling with stuff, just changing this, changing that, adding this, adding that, but not really doing anything substantial. So your biggest breakthroughs in business are actually going to come not from moments of excessive thinking, where that means you're trying to constantly find things to improve, but actually through stillness, through not thinking, through being able to just look at what you're doing, observe it without thinking about it, and letting something arise in you. In those moments, what arises is not called thinking, but it's called intuition, or like deep understanding. That might lead to thinking, like you have an epiphany, and that might lead to you thinking how you actually implement that epiphany into something that's actually working, but the real breakthroughs are going to come from those moments, not from thinking. And I bet you know many people, maybe even yourself, who simply grind their gears all the time, like okay, maybe this is wrong, maybe this is wrong, maybe this is wrong, maybe I change it, remove that, remove that, change the text, the color, and you just do the new one, you know, basically what Dan Pania calls minutia, which he says those who deal with minutia, they get manure, you know, cow crap, because the minutia, the small stuff don't really matter, but the mind doesn't care if it's small or big, it just wants to change stuff, because there's always a problem to solve, and it's always going to find a problem, it's an expert to that. If it's not going to find a problem in your business, it's going to find a problem in another area. So I'm going to teach you in the following, you know, videos the next few weeks, a lot more about how to actually get in touch with that kind of stillness, you know, that ability to stop thinking, but I just wanted to start already raising your awareness to seeing am I self-sabotaging myself by overthinking, overanalyzing, basically always looking for problems, but not really changing anything in terms of the results. So take your attention into it, think deeply about it, and in the next couple of days we're going to talk a lot more about not thinking so much, being able to stop thinking, and in the meantime, the best thing it can tell you to do is just whatever you find yourself problem solving, like I need to fix this and this and this and your problem, your mind just can't stop. Take 10, if you can 10, if not less, conscious breaths, just breathe, and you'll notice that by the third or fourth breath, if you're just kind of focused on your body and breathe while doing it, your mind will almost stop. Go from like, you know, to like very quiet, maybe even stop completely.  And it just my thinking made me feel bad, because when you think there's always a problem, so you felt bad, and then you're okay, I feel bad, so that means something needs to be solved, right? If I'm feeling bad means there's a problem. So it's kind of a loop.  Just look at it without thinking, look at your video, look at your website, just be with the website, like not even thinking about it, just inherently kind of be aware of it without thinking about it. See what happens, and I guarantee you that whatever solution or epiphany might come up, it will be the highest quality solution that your business concurrently need because it comes from a place of truly observing, not just looking for problems all the time.  So if you're just kind of being aware of the business, but nothing is arising, you're just kind of peaceful, well, you just reach two conclusions.  In a second, nothing needs to be changed. Thanks for watching, tune in next time.


Γεια σας! Είμαι Vicky εδώ και καλύτερα! Σήμερα θα δημιουργήσω two very fun cards using animation stumps. Αυτό είναι τα animation stumps by Uchi's Designs. Υπάρχουν πολλές διαφορετικές δημιουργίες. Η ιδια είναι πως να δημιουργήσεις ένας από τα φωτιά που δημιουργήσατε σε το stumpset και τότε θα παίρνεις ένα γραμμό στον κόμμα και όταν παίρνεις το στιγμό, η φωτιά δείχνει στις ανάγκες. Είχαμε πολλές δημιουργίες να παίρνουν στις ανάγκες και να δημιουργήσουμε δύο διαφορετικές δημιουργίες όπως θα δούμε τότε στον βίντεο. Από πρώτα θα σας δείξω κάποιες δημιουργίες. Αυτό είναι το εξαμβόλιο του stumpset που είναι called growing garden. Και θα δείξω το stumpset εδώ. Όλα τα φωτιά στις ανάγκες είναι πολύ καλύτερα, αλλά δεν πιστεύω για αυτό. Είναι πολύ καλύτερα, αλλά όταν παίρνεις το στιγμό στον κόμμα, όλοι θα είναι πολύ καλύτερα. Οπότε τη στιγμό Θα το βρήκαμε και όταν θα το βρήκαμε αυτό το στιγμό στον κόμμα, θα πρέπει να σας δείξω ότι αυτά δημιουργεί καλά με τότε τη στιγμό της stumpset. Ενείς, θα αφήρξω να δημιουργήσω το στιγμό με το στιγμό μου. Και θα αφήρξω και μπορείς να δείξεις όλες τις διαφορετικές δημιουργίες όπως εξαμβόλω. Μπορείς να δείξεις τα πόρια πλεύκαν αλλά τα φώτα πέρα και τα βαστά και όλα τα βαστά. και μπορώ να δούμε το σναίλ ή το λίγο νερό καν και νομίζω ότι είναι όλοι αδωρισμένοι. Και εδώ είναι ένα άλλο στάμψετο, αυτός είναι called Flying Owls και όπως βλέπω το γρίτο εκεί, μπορείτε να δείτε όλα τα όλες που βλέπουν και νομίζω ότι είναι πολύ κύριοι. Πιστεύω πιστεύω ότι αυτά είναι very fun things and they really give that wow factor to your cards. Τώρα το γρίτο είναι σε μπλάκ, but the ones that I have at least but they are available in different colors and there might be some grid dies coming up so you can cut out as many of those grids as you like. Now of course you don't have to stamp the images with black and you will see the example that I am going to do later on. Τώρα εδώ είναι ένα άλλο στάμψετο και αυτό είναι το αδωρισμένο γάτο και νομίζω ότι είναι αδωρισμένο. Ποια σκάλα εύκολα, εύκολα, εύκολα εύκολα στον κόσμο. Θα σας δείξω ένα πιο γιατί δεν μπορώ να βγω ποτέ τους. Αυτό είναι ένα άλλο στάμψετο που είναι called Happy Birthday και όμως είναι καλό για τα αδωρισμένα γάτος και μπορείτε να δείτε τα δάσεις που βλέπουν or the little cat that is opening its mouth όπως και ο λίγος λεπτυπος. Είναι ένα λεπτυπο που έρχεται έτσι από το κόσμο στο κόσμο. Και υπάρχουν πιο πολλά στάμψετο για να δείτε, όπως αυτές τις παραδοκές ή υπάρχει ένα άλλο με ένα μπαλάρινα που πένει πάνω και πάνω. Και μπορείτε να δείτε τα στάμψετος συγκεκριμένος ή αν θέλετε να μπορείτε να βρείτε αυτές. Είναι στάμψετο που βρίσκεται σε όλα τα πράγματα που πρέπει να κρατήσει ένα κάτο, όπως υπάρχουν στάμψετος, υπάρχει also one of those animated stamps. Μπορείτε να δείτε και θα δείτε some instructions on how you can create your card. So everything is in there. Και στο τέλος της παραδοκής μπορείτε να δείτε the type of the card that you are able to do. Now there are different types of these sets that include the tie, the grid and a little animated stamp. And you can see at the back the exact design. So in this case you have a slider that you slide left and right. You get that adorable little birdie and of course the grid mat. I'm going to show you a few of them and in a few minutes I'm going to put those into use. And I'm going to create one envelope card using this set that I'm showing you here. Where you are just sliding a panel outside and you can see the image moving through the window. And there is also a similar one but in smaller size that it pretty much works the same way as the larger envelope set. So I'm going to use this envelope set and create one of those little sliders. I'm going to take everything out so you can see what's included. So you get all these dies, you get one of the grids and of course you get a stamp set. One of the stamps that is actually an animated stamp. Now of course you don't need to get the sets that have the dies. You can just buy a stamp set and some package with grids and you are good to go. For my project today I'm going to use patent paper. And all the patent paper that I will be using comes from this pad. This is a 12x12 pad that is called Beach Day. And as always you will find links down below to the description area of everything that I am using. So now let's go ahead and create the first project. I will be using this patent paper from that paper pad collection.   I'm going to run it through my scissors machine. And I will have the base for my slider card. So once you cut this out you will see that not only it cuts out but it adds some scoring lines. I'm going to use my bone folder and go over those scoring lines making sure that everything is nice and crisp. And when I fold that you will be able to tell where the slider is going to go. Now just because I need a window at the front. I'm going to use one of the circles included in the die set. But of course if you wish so you can use the square. Just like I'm doing here. Instead I'm going to use the smaller of the circles. Make sure that it's nicely centered.  Make sure that everything is opened up and not folded.  So now I have my window at the front flap. And just to make it look more finished. I'm going to cut out a ring. You don't really need to do that. But it's totally optional. But it's going to make it look more beautiful. So again I'm going to use a patent paper from the same collection. I'm going to use both the circles. The smaller and the bigger one. Place it one inside the other.  And this way I will end up having a nice ring. Which is going to be a frame for the window that I have cut already.  So all you need to do is to grab the grid. And cut it to size. So that it fits behind that window. You can use your scissors. You can use your paper trim. It's not going to show if it's a little bit crooked. So I'm going to place some tape adhesive at the back of the window. And I'm going to stick that grid at the back. And always make sure that it's nicely stuck there. Since you don't want that grid to interfere with the panel. That will slide inside and out. Now on the side I want to create a notch. Which is again totally optional. You don't really need to do that. I just want to show you the different parts of the die set. And how you can use it. Now I'm going to place it just outside of that line.   I didn't align it with the edge of my paper. Just because then the notch would be too big. And it would almost touch my window. So now I am going to add some tape adhesive. And then stick the flap on top.  Now all we need to do is to create the little insert. Now for the slider I'm going to use some white cardstock. And you need to cut it out to be three by four and three quarters. So this is going to nicely fit inside. And you get a little bit longer. So that you can use some of these dies that are included in the kit. To create the flap. So now I'm going to align it with the edge of my rectangle there. I'm going to hold it down with some sticky tape. And then I'm going to place the other one on the other side. Now this is not going to cut to anything really. It's just going to turn those edges into rounded edges. Just to give that a more finished look. And my insert is ready to go. And it should fit nicely inside my envelope. And since I had my CISIX machine ready there. I decided to cut out the cover for the tabs.  That if you fold it in half. And place some glue in between. Then it's going to cover up the tab that is sticking out. So my insert is ready to go. I'm going to insert it and see if it's working nicely. And all that's left to do is to stamp the animated image. Now I'm going to show you that you can stamp either with black. Or with any other color or thing. As long as you keep the lines straight. And you align the grid. On top with the lines of the stamp. So I'm going to slide it. And I hope you can see how the sun is moving all around. So since this is going to be a fun card for summer. I wanted to have the sun going around and around at the center. And although you can see that with black ink it looks more crisp. And it's more vibrant through the grid. I wanted to have a fun colored sun. So instead I decided to go with yellow. And that's actually sunshine by Simon's stamp ink pad. Now instead of stamping it at the center. I decided to go a little bit off center. So that I have more space to see the sun moving. While I am pulling the little flap. And now I'm going to put in to use this tiny little stamp set. Which comes from my favorite things. It's called interactive labels.  So I think it's the perfect match with those cards that I'm creating today. And there are words such as lift, spin, shake, flip, slide etc. So I decided to go with pull here. Now there is enough space on the inside to write your message. And even at the back. And just to embarrass it a little bit more. I decided to go with one of the stickers from the same collection. That says making a splash. And I stick it just below the window. You can fit a gift card inside that envelope. And just below the image you can write your message. And here is how it works.  I decided to create a second project. And for that I'm going to use the set with the dies. The little image that gives you a birdie. As well as the slider. And this is from the set that is called animation slider circles. So for this we will end up having a little button that we slide left and right for the image to move. Now there are instructions and videos on their official website. On how you can do that. Just because I don't like following instructions. I decided to improvise. So I'm going to show you my way. So all I'm doing is cutting out a circle at the center of my pattern paper. By using the smallest of those two circles included in the set. And by the way my panel is 4.25x5.5. Now I am going to go ahead and cut out a ring. Just like I did with the first project. Again I used one of the pattern papers from the same paper pad. So everything is matching color wise.  So that you have enough space at the bottom for the slider.  And I'm going to place it underneath my window.  So I have a slit there. Now I'm using my scissors and I'm going to cut out very thin strips of foam tape. And I'm going to stick them at the back of my panel. On the left and on the right side. So when I place the grid later on it's not going to slide out of the cart. So these are actually working as a stopper for the grid. And at the same time you don't want them to be very thick. Otherwise you will not have enough space for the grid to move. And you can see what I mean here. Now I'm going to align it with the grid on my mat. I'm going to place the panel on top. And I have a little piece of foam tape there. Which I'm going to stick through that slit. Which means that this way this is going to stick where the grid is. So now I can move that foam left and right. And at the same time I'm moving the grid at the back. I'm going to place it on top of those stamped images. So that you can see the effect. And I can definitely play with this all day. I'm going to stamp the little birdie. And I made sure that the lines were totally straight. I made that sure with the grid of my misti. And I'm going to stamp that directly on top of my cart base. So this is a standard cart that's 4.25 x 5.5. And just so that I have a nice and vibrant image. I'm going to stamp it twice. Now it would look awesome if you stamped the hearts with red. And the birdie with another color. But just because I made a colorful animation image previously. I decided to go with black. So that we can see the difference. Now my panel is stuck on top of my cart base. Now I need to cover up that foam tape somehow. So I created a little strip of paper there. And I have also cut out a heart. Using one of the ties included in the set. I'm going to stamp on top the word pull. And excuse my head there. And now the cover up is ready. I'm going to stick it on top of the foam. And my animation cart is ready. Now I keep calling it a birdie. And my daughter says it's a fish. But no matter what it is, I think it's super cute. And since this is a typical cart. You can open up the flap and write your message on the inside. And these were the two projects for today. I hope you had fun and got inspired. And if you did, don't forget to leave me a comment. As well as give me thumbs up on my youtube channel. Don't forget that you can find the full list of all the supplies that I'm using. Down below in the description area as well as on my blog. And if you need more inspiration. Here are two more videos that I created a while back. Thank you all for watching.


What is going on guys welcome back to channel critical overload here shouldn't talk about scream six is video here again today And what you see on your screen is not a joke. It is not anything that should be doubted It is official Hayden panteria will be back in scream six Reprising her role from scream 4 as Kirby Reed the Hollywood reporter reported this earlier and an exclusive Update that we got like so this is our second Casting confirmation that we've got our announcement we got in regarding the six upcoming entry in the screen franchise Shout out to everyone who tagged me. I saw everyone tell critical overlord makes your critical overlord No, I saw my name tagged by several different people on Twitter. So shout out to you guys I know that I make a lot of Kirby videos and I know a lot of you already know how happy I am about this Mostly what I'm happy is that Hayden herself as an actress Hopefully after this project will be doing a lot of other things I hope this is the start of her getting back into what I grew up watching her do I'm a big fan of hers.  I thought was incredible. I loved her and remember the Titans just always been a big fan I think she was in Malcolm in the middle at one point two, but I for whatever reason when I was a young kid The character of Kirby Reed was just some something of hers that really just stuck with me And I've always wanted to see more of that character and I'm glad we're gonna get a chance to see that I'm glad the directors Matt and Tyler really were obviously trying to again I I believed that the release that we got for screen 5 was a big sign of them trying to live up to West's wishes What he had talked about we're doing with Kirby even though Kevin originally had the character die I'm glad that we are gonna get to see more Hayden Pantera in this in this role as this character seen her interact with Mindy Sam Tara Chad Hopefully a whole slew of new characters and of course I know everybody has already kind of talked about what if she's the opening kill even if she's the opening kill again What I am mostly just happy about is that Hayden Pantera seems like she's in a place in her life Where she is going to start doing more roles. I hope this isn't just a one-and-one for her I hope she starts to Use this to kind of get back into the entry. This is a great way to return a Big major role for her to return into a part of a big major franchise that she is a part of and She's gonna be back. We know in screen 5 they confirmed that she was alive I know that for the longest time like over a decade the question of her be so Kirby survival was up in the air For a while there in between the screen for fifth movie we got I was like, yeah, she's dead but then I started weighing the other things involved in it and what West had stated and Thus the whole nature of it all Seeming like again It was shot in a way that still told you that the character is alive because again at the end of screen 4 Who is that coming inside of the house in the basement before Charlie grabs Sydney from behind? I believe that was Kirby returning inside from her wounds where she sat down and of course She just probably passed out due to blood loss. Of course Somebody apparently found her in time before she bled to death and I know he was a oh well Do we didn't mention her in the hospital again? I think there's certain things in place related to health health laws as to why he might not have talked about that with Jill Kirby's not a relative of Jill. That's just that's just her friend It could have also been something in place related to something from her parents when she got admitted to the hospital But it's nice to know that she will be back. I can't wait to see how we learn about, you know All these different things she's been through. How did the events of screen 4 impact her? Where has this taken her in her life? What is she up to right now if she is the opening kill? You can still just have us learn certain things about her get caught up with her and if she goes out in the opening I mean, I'm not necessarily saying I'm in agreement with something like that because you have already made it clear You had bigger plans for her. That's why you left her out of screen 5 But also if it comes out that this is what Hayden wanted to do and like is in a way of Drew Barrymore in the opening of screen And I think many fans would then be like, okay We understand where she's coming from then because if there's still just something in her that doesn't want to come Want to fully return to the industry but she's doing this to kind of just because she clearly loves the character She she said it she said it to radio silence themselves I think she mentioned to them when they had reached out to her instead of like a video meeting that she she would love to return It's could be they just didn't do it because they had other plans of mine They didn't want to just make her a glorified cameo, which is what I don't think they should do with Sydney Prescott If you don't have anything substantial for Sydney Prescott, then don't bring her back But with Kirby now back, I think this would make up for a lot of people who are upset about the death of Dewey I know a lot of us myself included if you don't like that. He's dead I don't want to say that I'm one of those people who understands why the character was killed Per what they wanted to tell for what the vision they gave us I see why do we went it isn't anything that's Disrespectful to the character. It's not something that's glossed over and never talked about It's used to adding emotional weight to the narrative. So if they do something like that with Kirby in scream six I might have my criticisms of the fact that okay. Well, you brought her back and now she's just dead But again, if Kirby hating herself wanted it to be done like that because some other personal reasons then I'll be fine I do think that she'll make it out of this movie alive though I think that what will end up happening is she'll be in the opening to kind of play with you You're gonna already think oh, they brought her back just to kill her but it's not gonna be her that dies is gonna be her counterpart her significant other who we meet in the opening who dies and She'll be going into the new story with the new group of cast members the new new survivors from Woodsboro and they'll all be Connected to each other because it will also be great if she were to make it out of this one alive Return for scream 7 now. I do want to say that if she were to get killed in scream 6 I'm fine as long as you make it abundantly clear that she's dead and as long as it's done in a way that is I would say Heartbreaking but also again adds another layer to the intensity of whatever the final act is going to be like and Also a death that serves a purpose not just a death for the sake of oh look We killed another person just like for shock value nothing like that something that adds another weight Underneath the already strong narrative I have faith in that we're gonna get and you could just kill off another legacy cast this I know many of you Would prefer to be Kirby before gay in Sydney even though I know myself included love Kirby to death I'd kill her before gay in Sydney. I'm just being honest, and I don't even I don't even I don't like gale More than Kirby, but it's just more so of the fact that gale has paid her dues more than Kirby So out of respect I would kill Kirby before gale I of course prefer Sydney over Kirby.  Yeah, you're gonna die Kirby But if they kill her or not, I'm just glad she's back I don't think she'll die in this movie if she does die again It's just what it is as long as it's done in a respectful way And if it was what Hayden ended up wanting then that's just what it will be but I think she will live I think she'll make it into scream seven and she will end up being a part of this final survivors We have by the time the series is concluded But are you guys happy that Hayden pansy ears back? Do you think we'll get more news before the end of the week? Let me know down in the comment section below if you haven't already of course make sure you subscribe Turn on post occasion and miss a video in the description. I leave some social media accounts on Facebook Twitter and Instagram You can message me there, of course, eliminate any movies and movies or if you'd like me to cover in the future And with all that in mind guys, I will see you in the next video


This study proposes a geometrical optimization framework and model for designing compact, star-shaped cities that minimize the conflict between mitigating climate change and adapting to its impacts. The framework takes into account the economics and climate of cities, and demonstrates that urban design considerations depend on transport fuel prices. The results are particularly important for city planners of rapidly urbanizing cities in Asia and Africa who still have the potential to shape urban layout. This article was authored by Karl Pima and Felix Koitzig.


Happy Mother's Day to all of you beautiful moms out there. I'm just so thankful that we can spend some time getting to honor you and celebrate you today and who you are and all that you do.

out of the war in Vietnam today so dramatically reviews the changes and combat techniques that have come in our time as the enlistment of army aircraft in the jungle war against the communists. These helicopters and fixed wing aircraft, some of them manned by Vietnamese aviators trained by American soldiers, some piloted by Americans themselves, helped carry the battle to the hidden enemy. Helping to turn the tide against red aggression, these machines are writing the latest chapter in the army aviation story, a constantly growing story which already has given the ground forces of the United States a bold new dimension of mobility with wings at the treetop. The team was first demonstrated in World War II when the old L4 was used as an aerial observation platform for the adjustment of artillery fire. As a result, the accuracy of that fire was steadily and substantially improved and the concept of army aviation was born. There aren't many of these babies left anymore. It's just about as rare now as the old Gatling gun. But they started something all right, a revolution in fact, at least a revolutionary idea. And the idea simply was this. In an age of bigness and speed, not everything has to be big. And if you make all the machines go as fast as technology will permit, you may be out distancing the man who still has to carry the main burden of ground combat, the guy with the rifle in his hands. This idea was the real beginning of army aviation. It became more than an idea. It became part of the military philosophy of this nation in 1947, when Congress passed the National Security Act, defining the missions of the three services. In that act, it was specified that the army would have such aviation as would be organic to the army's mission, which is defined as prompt and sustained combat, incident to operations on land. Today, the army has a wide variety of aircraft to be used in the accomplishment of its mission, rugged, durable machines, which have come a long way from the old L4. And so much a part of the army scene is aviation today, so deep is the impact it has made on the modern army. So identified is it with the army's mission that in magnitude alone, it presents an impressive glimpse of a new army look. Here are the aircraft, 103 of them, which are organic to the army division today. These aircraft belong to the division's combat units themselves, as much a part of the division as its weapons and its communications integrated throughout its units and echelons of command. All 16 of the divisions of the army have been reorganized to give them the capability provided by the army's aircraft, such as the extent of aviation in the army today. And all these machines and the personnel and support required to utilize them exist for one purpose, to help this man. Remember him? After all these years, after all the wars that have been fought, after all the new and powerful weapons that have been introduced and superseded and forgotten, he's still around. No one's ever thought of a way to eliminate him or replace him. He's still the one indispensable factor in war. Alone, single-handed, he may not be able to determine victory, but you can be sure that victory will ever be achieved unless he does his job well. This and this alone is what the aircraft in the army's possession are for, to help the fighting man do his job better. And how do they do this? They do it by giving him a dimension of tactical mobility he has never had before. Mobility, of course, has always been a highly prized and eagerly sought capability by all military forces. Today we do a lot of thinking in global terms, as well we should. For the world we live in is one in which a brush fire several thousand miles away can send flames licking at our front door by nightfall. We've got a military force that's geared to the long-distance challenges in this kind of world. The swift transport aircraft of the United States Air Force can pick up our soldiers at American bases and within a matter of hours, land them or drop them anywhere on the face of the earth. This is mobility certainly and a mobility we must have and maintain. In military terms, it's called strategic mobility. The army fighting man's job begins once he's been carried as far as the big birds of the Air Force will take him. Much can be done by air mobility after this point. Once he gets his feet on the ground and a rifle in his hands, he must be ready to go to work. And if the path he has to travel to reach the enemy is mountainous, if it's notched with barriers that slow him down, if it's frozen or mired with mud, then his job is that much harder. For exhausted, he still got a fight ahead of him. This has always been the foot soldier's enemy over which he has had no power. The tyranny that terrain can impose on the man who was always struggle against his roughest features. But he's won, hasn't he? Sure he has. He's plowed on, he's got there. And in spite of this enemy, on a thousand battlefields, he's written a record of dogginess and stoutness of heart that are part of the glory of his folklore. But no one's ever been able to tell what the cost of victory is that might not have to be paid in time and in human life. If the soldier who had to do the winning were able to free himself from the tyranny of terrain. These are the machines that finally will help liberate him from this tyranny. These machines are designed solely for his needs and are under his complete control. With them, he can leap mountains. He can cross rivers. He can defeat barricades erected by both nature and the enemy he fights. No longer need he be at the mercy of a restrictive environment than the obstacles it puts in his way or slowed down by the enemy's own effort to block his path with minefields or blown bridges or other efforts to delay him. He can seek out the enemy in inaccessible places, in jungle and wooded areas, in remote and hidden spots. This capability is of particular importance in assisting the Vietnamese soldier to counter the kind of warfare the communists have chosen to wage today in Vietnam and may attempt to wage in other areas of the world. The war of the guerrilla who strikes in stealth and then withdraws into the protective cover of the countryside to hide and wait until he can strike again. Use of aircraft gives the soldier who fights such an enemy access to what once was inaccessible, a road where no road existed before, swiftly effectively. He now can ferret the enemy out, deny him the ability to hide, which is indispensable to the successful guerrilla. In any engagement, the soldier can reach his objective fast with the use of aircraft. He can reach it fresh for the battle, his strength and his resources undepleted by a strenuous trip over rugged terrain. And because of the speed with which he can travel, he can bring to the battle an advantage which the fighting man always seeks, but until now has not always been able to achieve the most desirable advantage of surprise. The principle instrument which provides the soldier with his new dimension of mobility. This incredible machine has opened almost single-handedly possibilities for movement and maneuverability, undreamed of a generation ago. The army's helicopters today are becoming more rugged and more practical machines, so versatile they can do many different jobs in the environment of the battle area and in many different ways. Their principal advantage is their ability to travel at treetop level or below, skimming the surface of the earth. Out of the reach of radar or other detection devices, protected from both observation and enemy fire by the earth's cannonball. So maneuverable are they that they seem to have a life and a response of their own. They can hover, they can hide, they can change position to rise and hover again. They can land virtually anywhere. Some particularly useful for observation are small. Some are large enough to carry an infantry squad into the battle area and when quick movement away from the battle area is important, as with evacuation of casualties, they can accomplish this too. That service aerial ambulances carrying wounded men to the rear areas where they can be given immediate medical attention. Through aviation, lives are saved which might otherwise have been lost through delayed action. Those are big enough to transport a full combat platoon equipped and ready for action and supplies as well as troops. Copters, for instance, can each transport separate components of the Pershing missile, enabling the missile to be erected in a very short time. This use of helicopters strengthens the soldier's position by putting the army's heaviest firepower quickly into the battle area with him. If he loaded inside, they can be carried by sling attached to the machine. Virtually all helicopters, except for the very smallest, can get other weapons up to where the fighting man needs them. Copters from enemy ground fire, fixed wing aircraft are faster and can do some jobs better than helicopters. But even these machines, with their increased speed and power, are developed with the emphasis on the same qualities the helicopter must have. Rugged performance and the ability to live and operate in the combat zone where the fighting man lives at work, where only improvised aviation facilities are available, and where takeoffs and landings must be made in extremely tight areas. Connexants and surveillance are important jobs taken on by these powerful machines, improving in large measure the reconnaissance and observation activities carried out by organic army aircraft for the past 20 years. Camera in the belly of the plane is activated and a photograph is taken. All the swift work made possible by reconnaissance aircraft, what might have remained an undetected sight, is spotted. And what might once have appeared to be an empty and abandoned village, devoid of life, is identified as an enemy stronghold. reconnaissance, surveillance, transport. These are the missions of army aviation. Map of the earth flying is the technique with which these missions are accomplished. Trains to develop and perfect the technique, knows his mission as well as he knows the capabilities of his aircraft, and this he comes to know very well indeed. Because his training is thorough, it is demanded. It draws upon his skill, his patience, and his determination. But it pays him back in other corner, confidence, and the sense of accomplishment that results from the discipline of a simple and rugged machine. In the field where he lives most of the time, or in a training installation such as this one, the aviator is a member of a special breed, responsive to the particular challenges that aviation offers. But he is first of all a soldier with the soldier's interests and outlook. Aviation belongs to the entire army. There is no special branch. It's men come from all arms and all services of the active army, the reserve forces, and the National Guard. But for the men and the women in army aviation, it has the special excitement of a program growing and broadening as the army itself moves to meet the future. Soldiers of all ranks serve in the aviation program. Enlisted men are aviation specialists, technicians, crew members, mechanics, men with skills and vision, working with the officer and warrant officer aviators to keep the aircraft flying. All of these together are the men, the soldiers, who are quietly but courageously helping to write new chapters in the techniques of waging and winning wars. In the remote, scarred mountains and deltas of Vietnam, these men bring their skills in this new technique to assist in the training of a hard-pressed ally who has been fighting a difficult war against the communists for many long and lonely years. As advisors to the military forces of South Vietnam, the United States Army aviators are introducing those forces to a new concept and a new dimension of mobility. And the South Vietnamese in turn use the increased power which this mobility gives them to seek out the hidden enemy who strikes from the jungle and returns to its protection. If the war can be carried to the enemy so that he has no place to hide, the war can be won. And it will be these men who will have shown the way. This then is army aviation as it is today. Young but already indispensable, giving the American soldier a new dimension of power. Single-handedly, it has transformed the concept of mobility in battle within a single generation. And for the soldier who still as always must translate concept into action, it has increased by many fold his power to take the land and hold it, his classic job in battle.


Who's ready to see what damage I did for black Friday and so for today's video I'm going to be doing a black Friday haul gonna share with you pretty much everything that I got I did pick up some presents that I'm not gonna share for others And I'm actually going to do a little bit of a fashion haul as well I will have time stamps below if you're not interested in the clothes the makeups gonna be first Then the clothes will be in the second half. Yeah, we got some deals I shared a lot with you guys and these are the ones that I picked out for myself So yeah, if you want to see what I got and just keep watching Okay, so the first order it wasn't the very first order that I made But this was probably the best black Friday sale where I got the best Stinking deals was from the hood of beauty black Friday sale There's was like up to 80% off now not everything was 80% off But there were some good things that I put literally 80% off. Let me pull these out the first thing that I picked up for myself is the rose gold palette remastered I got this for around $20 and believe it or not. I actually don't have this palette This is in my mom's collection. So if I've ever showed it to you in the past I stole it from my mom, but I got one for myself and I think that this one is absolutely beautiful This was a remastered or a remake of their very first palette that came out and I have the very first palette No, I don't I decluttered it But anyways, I didn't have this palette and I thought it would be kind of cool to get a new What fresh one and I think it is so pretty and it was only $20. I mean the price of these are $65 the fact that I got this for $20 I didn't have it in my collection so I was like, um, I need that so I got it So here we are. So this is the first palette that I picked up for myself It's not as exciting because it's not new my mom owns it So I feel like I've owned it before anyways I'm excited about this one. It is stunning. This was a crazy deal So luckily I saw that the sale happened early. So I got this before it sold out But this is the hood of beauty a desert dust palette $14 you guys I own this palette, but I didn't care. I was buying it for $14 Mine is kind of dried out. It's old That's one thing I will say about hood of pallets is that the lifespan on them isn't the longest So mine's dried out, but I do love the color story. So I was like, you know what? I'm just gonna get a new one. That's not dried out for $14. Why would I not? I'm trying to get this open though, and I'm Struggling this is like an unboxing you guys. I haven't really truly gone through or opened everything normally I like play with this stuff first. I swatch it so I can tell you a little bit about the products But this is a true unboxing because honestly, Jose's parents are coming today. So I had to film this pretty quickly and I will not be filming for probably like a week So I had to get this film. So anyways, this is what it looks like if you haven't seen it before. It's a beautiful palette I absolutely love this color story. You can tell it's because there's purples in here But there's a lot of other gorgeous tones in here So it's unfortunate that the lifespan isn't the longest on this but for $14 I couldn't say no I literally bought one from one of you guys as well So I'm going to be doing a giveaway in this video. Stay tuned till the end And for all of the details of that, but yes, you're lucky you landed on this one because we will have a giveaway This will be one of the gifts. I also picked this up. You guys, there's a story for this So this is the Kayali vanilla 28 perfume. It was still kind of expensive with it being like a newer more popular item It was 30 off. So it wasn't a spectacular ideal But if you have been watching my videos, I ordered a roller ball from Kayali from the Sephora Vib sale And the vanilla was just the best vanilla scent I've ever smelled. So this smells fantastic So I got this from my mom because she loved it for Christmas the woman bought it for herself So she was like, oh, I just bought this for myself. I like the way it smells on you And I was like, I got that for you for Christmas. So, you know what? Whatever. It's fine I'm just gonna keep this for myself because when I run out of my roller ball I was gonna pick up a bottle anyway. So at least I got it for 30% off Let's see what it looks like since I ain't giving it to nobody anymore And don't you hate when that happens? My mom's a kind of woman and I'm this kind of person as well But if she if there's something that she wants or she likes she just buys it for herself I'm like that as well, but sometimes in circumstances like this It's hard because I hear her go. Oh, I like it. So I buy it for her and then She buys it for herself. Ooh, this is pretty I've never owned a full size of Kayali before Yay, I don't buy perfumes for myself too often. Honestly I'm like cheap when it comes to perfumes and I stick to my tried and trues really I don't have the largest perfume collection mostly because they're too expensive the good perfumes So this is nice. This is one of my newer edition higher end perfumes. I'm excited Oh, but the notes but on this by the way our vanilla orchid tonka absolute Brown sugar amberwood and musk and it's my favorite vanilla scent if you like vanilla It's not like a vanilla scent. I've ever smelled before so it's unique, but it's still delicious cakey vanilla I like sense the same sense that teenagers like so this is like a teenage vanilla, but a little bit more mature Okay, and then the lashes on sale were nuts. These were the best deals in my opinion Besides the $14 desert dust palette I got all of these lashes for around three to four dollars and the original price of these lashes are like 18 dollars I stocked up on the good ones that I saw I actually picked up three of Olivia, but I gave once to my mom because she wanted them So these were at four dollars. They look quite pretty. I've never tried them before I like the hood of lashes. I don't think they're the best on the market, but for four dollars There certainly will take them. I don't know if I'm gonna like this one They look a little different than they did online, but this is scarlet This one looks quite dramatic. This one looks very dramatic This is latte and I guess it's their lux silk collection. Oh, that one could be pretty But I do have smaller eyes. So I struggled to carry off certain lashes. So we'll see this looked interesting. This is Harmony, I don't know about these. We are experimenting. They were dirt cheap and then I also picked up Alyssa Which these are longer than I thought they're individuals. I might put this on a giveaway now actually I think I just went on a rampage and added this to my cart, but truthfully I don't use individuals too much So I think I might give these away to one of you guys But anyways, that's what I got from hood of beauty steals of deals you guys if you missed out on that sale Honestly, I feel sorry for you because it was the best deal Oh Oh my gosh, the best thing happened you guys So I've been wanting to order from glam light for a very long time when the mackayl palette came out I wanted it. I thought it was gorgeous But I just knew it wasn't something that I was going to need so I passed on it Then the wine collection came out or mimosas or whatever that collection was Happy hour. I don't know this one right came out And then that one I was really like clenching my teeth like I I need to have that but I passed because I've never tried glam light on my channel and you know, they're not one of the staple brands that I covered So it would be more so of a personal purchase as opposed to a business purchase So I was holding off and I literally had my cart filled a few weeks ago with the mackayl palette and a few of the wine Palettes, but it was just it was too. I didn't want to spend $200 on eye shadow palettes when I have what I have already So just sat there in the cart 40 off. So that is when I pulled the trigger I am so happy that I waited and the reason that I waited and didn't pick it up on the initial purchase was because it was expensive and I needed to go upstairs and get my credit card To actually purchase it and I was too lazy and I was like, maybe this is a sign They don't take paypal But when the 40 off I was like that's a huge difference It's really great when moments like that happen of products that you knew you were going to eventually end up anyways with And then there's a huge discount. So 40 off was great. So I got all of the palettes that I wanted and more I've never tried the glam light formula and since I haven't Swatched any of these yet. I can't tell you but I will swatch these for the video as you can see that I'm doing So I'm going to put a note right here as to how I thought they swatched It'll be a bit probably after jose's parents leave before I play with these First of all, I had to get the mackayla palette. I'm not really into makeup tiktok I like animal videos on tiktok to be honest, but this palette I thought was gorgeous So I do follow her but I'm not like a regular follower She doesn't show up on my timeline or my feed very often But this packaging is so pretty I feel like this is something that I would design if I had to create a palette Same thing with this color story looks stunning all these purples in here. You know, I love it All these neutrals up here the greens the blues. I mean, this is just a perfectly executed palette in my opinion And I wanted this so bad, but I held off because I just knew I didn't need it but for 40 off I took advantage of that. So I'm really excited about this. This looks like it's going to be so much fun So I did pick this one up And in my original basket that I was telling you guys about a few weeks ago I was really struggling deciding which palette I wanted to pick up from this happy hour collection But you guys knew I wanted the wine palette But it was the other ones that I was like Because there was only one palette that I felt like I would never use but it still looked pretty And so it was either like I couldn't pick out just one I was in an all or nothing kind of mood, but of course with the 40 off I got the entire collection. I'm so late on these, but they just look fabulous. I mean first of all I don't even drink. That's the funny part. I'm more into the palette. I don't even care what the theme is, but This is so cute. I mean, I'm sure you've seen all of these by now How do you open these? This is the palette that I didn't want Like I kind of wanted it just because I liked the other three a lot So I was like, okay, well I just don't get this one This is the one that I didn't feel the need to have the margarita palette. Let's see What am I supposed to do with these covers? Do I keep them? What am I supposed to do with this? I don't even drink, but I want to keep them What are you doing with these if you bought them? And so here's the margarita palette So cute. Oh my gosh. Look at this I've never tried glam light before like I said So I'm really excited with the direction that they're going You know, I've seen glam light really evolve over the years And I was never interested in their food themed collections. I'm not gonna lie like a pizza palette just didn't appeal to me See, I felt like I didn't need this. I didn't really want it, but it looked so pretty So I did kind of want it. I would not have paid full price for this Let me just say that but for 40 off these shimmers look in let me swatch one. Let's just Okay, this was my first touch ever. Okay. Well this green seemed Oh, these seem good. Let's see. Okay. I mean the price is right for these these shimmers seem pretty anyways That was the margarita. Let's get into these other ones. It's gonna take a minute for me to open these Okay, so we have the dirty martini This is one that I needed to have if I was gonna order it and here's what palette looks like Okay, this my friends is a green palette If the quality on this is good, I think this might be my favorite green palette ever I think the curation of colors are perfect. This looks fun and with green being such a trendy color right now Oh, this is Making me feel some type of way. I really am just a true makeup lover you guys I feel like a kid in a candy store Okay, this is this is the one that kind of threw me off because I know I didn't need it But I really really wanted it like in my original order I was gonna get the wine palette and the dirty martini palette, but this Chocolate martini. I felt like I couldn't leave it. I really wanted it too Let me open this Because you all know I don't need a neutral palette, but y'all know I couldn't pass on this palette like look at this How could I okay? This is so pretty too. I mean now looking at it I think I could have passed on this palette But I'm happy that circumstances worked out this way because I'm gonna have fun with this I think these might be my most exciting purchase These are truly just makeup items that I really really wanted. Okay And then lastly when the wine palette first launched you all told me you already knew I was eyeing it and I totally totally was Love this so cute I'm crying It's so beautiful and these are tones of purple is that a lot of brands won't touch because they're so hard to formulate So I'm really excited to see you know how these are We'll see I'm really excited for my first experience with glam light. Like I said, I'm So impressed with the direction that the brand is going up first They didn't catch my eye, but now with every launch that they're having I'm becoming more and more interested So maybe this is a new brand that I need to add to my arsenal. It's an indie brand So I'm always very happy to support them and I mean congratulations on their success I can see that they are growing bigger and they are expanding and that they are listening to feedback So I'm really excited about those that's the order that invokes the most Excitement in me for sure just because I really wanted these it didn't have anything to do with my channel I just wanted these okay, and then I do have some stuff from elf They sent this to me But I figured I'd show you because they did have a pretty good black friday sale but I did pick these out myself because I Thought they would make good gifts and giveaway items I'm gonna throw a number of these into a giveaway for you guys Elf really does create some great products for a great price So I specifically got this one to put in a giveaway for you guys because I've been loving the elf Holy hydration skincare line super affordable from what I've been told really good ingredients really works I mean I have my holy hydration cream on my desk right now because I use it so frequently So these will be going in the giveaway already because I want to bless y'all with trying this collection How cute is this I think I got this for my cousin because I think she would like these This is the epic frost liquid shadow set. I like these elf glitters You know, they're so affordable and they really add a little extra oomph To your eye look so this is a great set no matter what I feel like somebody's going to love this Just because who doesn't love a little pop of glitter, you know, so I'm excited about this set It's one of my favorite elf sets and it's a really good product I also got some items from their bite sized sets. We have a cream and sugar quad and a spiced apple How cute base duo these are really cheap They're really good quality for the price and then a bite size lip balm in mint So all of these are a cute little bite size sets. Oh, this is so good the poreless putty primer from elf We have a putty bronzer. This is also really nice and then a putty blush I'm not as big of a fan of the putty blush personally, but I believe these three came in a set So those are gonna be nice, but the primer and the bronzer Really good. We also have a putty blush brush and elf brushes super good if you're on a budget So this might be interesting. I might want to keep those to see how it works with the putty stuff that I have I think there was another one in the bite size set. Yes So there's also the bite size brow palette, which I love this. I have one in my collection I use it all the time. I don't really like the waxes, but the powders are really good But anyways, these are just some sets that I picked up for Giveaways giving to my family stocking stuffers. Elf stuff is really good for stocking stuffers So we have that stuff as well I have one more order and the reason why my black friday haul was a little bit more delayed is because I've been waiting for this order to come And it hasn't come But since Jose's parents are coming today, I'm just gonna tell you what I got and insert pictures It's actually supposed to be delivered this evening But the last makeup or beauty order that I made is from our glass. They had 20 off, which was pretty good I mean, it's not the highest percentage that we've seen but for our glass. It was really good So here's what I picked up the ambient metallic strobe lighting palette So for the 20 off I did save $12 And I love the metallic strobe formula, but I don't have too many of this formula in my own personal collection This palette is actually in my mom's collection and amid our divorce of me moving out I wanted one of these for myself just because I really love the formula So I have that on the way and I've always wanted to try the lip gloss formula from hourglass So I do have an unreal high shine voluminizing lip gloss on the way in the shade pink nude because I'm a big pinky nude lip person. So I'm excited to try that and I love their ultra slim Lipsticks, I love the way that they feel in my hand and I love the formula of them as well and her small lips So since they're slim It's a perfect shape for my lips. I picked up the shade I love and this is a light cool pink And I save 720 by the way with the discount I also save six dollars on the lip gloss discount and then the last item that I picked up from hourglass I just wanted to try it. I've never tried this formula I got a vanish blush stick in the shade loyal, which is supposed to be like a rosewood color So I'm excited. I just I don't know what came over me I just felt like I wanted to try some hourglass formulas I feel like I missed out on and there was a couple of things that I just genuinely wanted Like I said 20 off based on other sales that we're seeing, you know, I wasn't 40 off like light by enemies Hourglass is expensive. They don't really have too many sales They do have their friends and family sale, which is 25 off Which is probably the best deal that you can get off of hourglass But with the 20 off I was like, you know what? I think I'm gonna make an order of some stuff that I wanted So that's what I got from hourglass. All right guys So those were all of my makeup orders if you're only here for the makeup You can head out but I did want to show you the clothes that I picked up for black friday if you were interested I was actually more interested in the clothing black friday sales compared to the makeup black friday sales because y'all I need to upgrade my wardrobe. I am wearing clothes from college in high school still just because these last few years I've been a PE teacher So I didn't really have a need to update my wardrobe now that I'm no longer teaching and I'm in the beauty space I needed to upgrade some stuff So I picked up some jeans from american eagle and a lot of clothes from Abercrombie and fitch just for reference I am only like 4 10 4 11. I am just under 5 foot. I weigh about 115 pounds So if you are petite like me, you definitely need to tune in. But yeah, let me show you what I did get So we'll start off with american eagle for the last few years all through high school and college I got all of my jeans from american eagle because at least when I was in high school They were the only brand that sold a short length So I've always stuck by american eagle because of that. Let me show you what I got I have a lot of skinny jeans, you know, I'm old I'm not like the tease but I have been looking for you know, more baggy jeans more trendy jeans to wear So I started off at american eagle. So the first pair that I got is a Mom straight jean in cool torn and I got the shade too short So on my height the short is the perfect length from american eagle And all of the american eagle jeans that I have for you are in the shade too short The fact that I'm calling the size is shades Could I be more of a fashion noob? So this mom straight jean, I love these. I love the wash They do have some rips in them, which I don't love the rips But I feel like every style of jeans have rips. There is no escaping it But these fit really really nice. They are that more trendy mom Straight jean instead of a skinny jean and they're super duper comfortable So I really like these and they weren't too expensive, especially with the sale I believe american eagle was having like 30% off and then I also got another pair of the same style the mom straight jean This is a little bit of like a lighter not an acid wash, but you can see it's a little bit lighter This one is also really cute. I like the fit of the first one that I showed you a little bit better But these are also very flattering American eagle has always been very flattering to my body and the thing that I love about american eagle is you Can't get any comfier than a pair of american eagle jeans. They're very very stretchy so you can do anything in them Very happy with the fit of those.  You're not sure if you're ready to branch out I think those are a good place to start. I think these last two I am going to return But I figured I'd show you so I got uh the style 90s boyfriend. I don't like these They are very very ripped. They're a bit long on me. They're way too baggy, especially in the crotch area I cannot stand when my cross let me zoom out a little bit. I don't know how to do fashion holes Anyways, especially in the crotch area. I noticed that they are a little bit looser I mean you can see in the demo how much bigger they are So I think I'm going to return these and then the last style that I got they didn't have it in a Short so I had to get it in a regular length, but these didn't have any rips in them So I was like, I don't care. I want to get them and the style of these are a relaxed mom jean These again are like they're too baggy for me. I feel like they don't look flattering on me. They add extra weight I love the color and I like that. There's no rips in them, but I'm not ready for this Style I don't really like it on me yet. Maybe in the future, but I'm not there yet I like a good straight jean.  Anyways, that's all I got from american eagle just jeans because I love american eagle jeans But my favorite place to shop for clothes, especially if you are petite like me Abercrombie and Fitch they have made a comeback, but I have never stopped shopping there I actually worked at Hollister, which is the same company in high school But I find that Abercrombie and Fitch is the best for petite people All of their items have like adjustable straps and stuff for somebody petite like me And they also offer like short and I think extra short So I did get some jeans to compare them to american eagle because like I said, I've worn american eagle for forever Interesting, I'll tell you and then I also picked up some other stuff Even the dress I'm wearing this is not part of the whole but I did get this dress from Abercrombie And dresses are my favorite thing to get from Abercrombie because they offer short All their dresses are the perfect length normally they go below my knees Which is not very flattering. I find on myself love Abercrombie. Let me get this stuff So let's start off with my jeans experience The Giza Abercrombie significantly more expensive than american eagle, but I just wanted to see it I'm an adult now. I have my own money So I was like, let me splurge a little bit on jeans, you know, I'm not spending more than a hundred dollars on jeans But Abercrombie was 30 off-site wide So, uh, there was a pair that I'm returning. It's downstairs. I'm not going to grab it. I didn't like it But each jean I want to say was about 80 dollars So the first style that I tried and was the 90s straight ultra high rise I got mine in a size 27 Short length or a four short is how they also have it labeled But I got a pair of white jeans because I didn't have a pair of white jeans And I really like these so these are almost like, uh I don't know. I feel like they're a little bit more wider As opposed to straight like the american eagle But I do like the fit of this around my belly and my waist. I feel like it really flattens out the area So here's the difference between american eagle and Abercrombie jeans american eagle much more stretchy a little bit thinner The Abercrombie definitely has less stretch to it and it's a little bit thicker making it a little less comfortable But I feel like that holds everything in so they feel more expensive. I feel like these are going to last longer I really like these. I will say the short length and Abercrombie is a little bit longer So I do feel like I need these hemmed like a half an inch shorter to be perfect on me I think they're very nice. I wasn't sure if I was going to like Abercrombie jeans, but I really like them They're different than american eagle, but in some ways, I think they're more flattering You can't beat the comfort of american eagle The next pair that I have is the 90s relaxed Jeans all high rise because I find that's flattering To make my legs look longer same size And these are really cute. I don't love the rips at the knees, but they're only sell Ripped jeans. Okay, because these are like places for teenagers But these are also super duper nice again I feel like they're almost more flared as opposed to a straight jean like the ones I got at American eagle love the wash of this again a bit long, but really nice very flattering And this is the last pair and I think this is my favorite pair in terms of how it looks of all that I've gotten So this style is the ankle straight So I guess I love the straight style. That's my new thing, but this is so perfect So since it's an ankle jean, it's literally the perfect length on me. It's super flattering you guys It doesn't flare out too much like the other two jeans, which I like how they flared But I still prefer that straighter style. Maybe I'm not ready for a complete big wide flare But these are super flattering. They're like a tiny bit tight on my thighs But I feel like that makes my thighs look a bit thinner. I don't know. I love these you can see them in the demo They look really good. So lots of jeans I really felt like I needed to upgrade my jeans because I was wearing jeans from high school and That needed to change. I did get some other things though from Abercrombie not just jeans You've seen it from the demo, but this is one of my favorite things that I got this white blouse It has like very like faux boning. That's really flattering. I'm sad though when I first tried it on I got makeup on the back So how do you get makeup out of white clothes? I've tried makeup remover. That doesn't work. So what do I need to use? Please and thank you But anyways, this is my style of blouse. I mean you see me wearing blouses kind of like this a lot The fit is perfect. I got everything else in a small by the way. So this is a size small I love it. This is one of my favorite tops that I picked up highly recommend I also got kind of a black version of it. It doesn't have the puff sleeves But it does have that like kind of boning really flattering and you guys see this This is why I like Abercrombie because these buttons allow you to adjust The straps so originally my my friends were showing and I was like, oh no, but then I noticed they had this button So now the straps are a good length. This is super flattering again Really cute with just jeans dresses them up and then I also picked up this black sheer shirts Not completely my style, but I don't know. We'll see honestly I was thinking since I'm moving down to florida. This is like a good florida winter outfit I don't know. I guess I'll see when I get there But I envision this with like a pair of cute jeans and like a very tight cute black tank top and this overtop I'm experimenting with this one. I'm not sure yet. I also got this body suits. It's a little complicated But I thought it would be super cute for videos. That's why I got it I didn't necessarily love it, but I knew it would look so good on camera And it's kind of like a halter top. I suppose it's like a sweater material. So it's a bit thicker for the winter And okay, so it's more than just this Here's like the top strappy parts and these top strappy parts are adjustable But I did come into a problem I asked my husband to tighten the straps for me, but then I couldn't get it off Especially because I was wearing a full face of makeup So don't make the straps too tight because then this is hard to get off But it's super duper cute once you have it on for the day adorable and then I got two dresses So this first one it's a very very summery, but I just thought it was so cute This is like a squirt situation So your undies aren't going to be seen super cute super comfortable easy to throw on I love the exposed back here. Yeah, and it is super duper cute This is definitely something that I bought for florida and I regret nothing Again, I believe they sold this in petite, right? Yes, they sold this in petite So it's the perfect length on me And then the last dress that I got again in a small petite I believe they call this like the travelers dress, but it is so cute and casual It's like a little tennis dress I feel like I could have worn something like this when I was teaching But I did not dress cute enough anyways the perfect length very flattering And I like that it's super casual like you can wear this with tennis shoes Or you can dress it up really comfortable kind of a thoughtless outfit But I thought it was super cute easy to throw on a great airport outfit something like that Anyways ever combi is killing it. They literally have my favorite clothes ever and the best fit the most flattering on my body While still not being super duper expensive, especially if you wait for a sale. All right, you guys there. We have it That was my black friday haul everything I picked up on sale. Let me know what you thought of this video Did you like the fashion portion?

Okay, morning everybody. We were part of a group to think about function and integrating function with sequence variants and we went a little bit beyond that because we think that not all function is genetically inherited. It was this group here. We had a spirited interchange for more than two hours yesterday that was very helpful. So and I guess we had observations. I don't think there was a lot of disagreement. There were certainly some new ideas and ideas that came up but one of the themes or key things is that this is a really important part of what genomics should be doing and obviously NHGRI. The time is actually right for a variety of reasons. One of them is that there are lots of variants and the other is that there are lots of ways of studying function of this that are being developed that are much, much higher throughput and way better than what we've had in the past and we actually hope what will happen from this is that even better new ideas will come up to, in addition to the ones that are available now to really tackle this problem. But clearly there needs to be some way to and NHGRI can lead the way on this and sort of does already but can and maybe a bigger way to integrate the functional information with the DNA sequence variants that we've been spending this time talking about. And so one of the first things that came in our planning for this and in the discussion is that the F word, what does function mean? And there are lots, we didn't get into the debate about the arguments of different approaches and different levels of function with regard to evolution or other things but we did talk about the two that probably really matter to this group and that is when you talk about function you can have a molecular function, a DNA sequence variant in a promoter affects transcription. That's something we know how to measure, things like that, a DNA sequence variant makes a protein not be made any longer. We can understand, measure and codify those and study those on a large scale and systematize it. But the other way of thinking about function then of course is whether that DNA sequence variant then leads to the outward phenotype because of course the outward phenotype at the organism or the person level is way, way more complex than measuring a promoter in vitro for instance. And so of course those need to be part of the goal is to try to link those but we did talk about those differences because one thing that is being done to some extent and we think needs to be done in much more systematic way is that first part of molecular biochemical and even cellular assays for function are ones that can be done in high throughput ways where we really can think about measuring not just thousands but hundreds of thousands for very, very many of those variants. You heard about some of that already. One point was also made that the DNA sequence variant and affecting let's say a transcriptional cis-acting element, those are very linked together. They're closer whereas the organismal, the variant in organismal and changing an outward phenotype is a little bit further removed or maybe even a lot further removed. And one of our members of the group came up with the point that we really need to find the, so what is it that we need to do? We want to find the sweet spot.  So the idea of figuring out lots of readout for modest investment and you're already seeing some of those, you heard about some of those yesterday. And then there was discussion about the different models that we have, you know, if we work with a particular cell line or a set of cell lines or those really good models for a disease or a phenotype, it's mouse, a good one or not. Even people even talked about other model mammals or vertebrates. So this was an interesting multiple discussions about this is that there are a couple of ways to think about coming at this top down and bottom up and we've marked cleverly color coded these so that you can see the yin yang here but one of them is that you just go and somebody referred to this yesterday as agnostically you go and you just figure out all the variants and you might even make those it's not just fine them you might even make them and then you figure out, sorry, then you figure out how they then intersect with those found in disease studies. So Jay's talk last night, Jay Shinduri's talk last night was an example of that but the other one is starting with the list of disease variants and then figure them out functionally and it's not you don't want to do one or the other we think you probably want to do both and have them kind of meet in the middle. So I'm just going to continue on from Rick. So another aspect of this resource we're talking about this sort of another dichotomy is on one hand we would envision a kind of functional resources something to do with a sort of large number of genes variants all types of sort of breath oriented thing that puts together results of many standardized high throughput experiments. The contrast of this of course is studying function in detail you know a kind of depth oriented approach looking at particular diseases particular genes and obviously this requires domain experts very detailed assays many of many of these things can't realistically be scaled but we felt that they were very important and we also felt that they're not necessarily the province of NHGRI but they perhaps could be in kind of partnership with other groups and the consensus of the breakout group is of course we need both of these things together we need both the breath and the depth and we felt that the glue to put both of these things together would be a really good informatics infrastructure that really ties together these overall kind of breath type of landscape with the detailed analysis on particular things and how to do this in a simple fashion and so forth we see is quite a challenge. So we've now sort of talked about the main aspects of this resource that we envision but there are sort of other considerations that I came up in the breakout group one was we're really talking about scaling to a whole genome level but there's of course another type of scaling that's going beyond the whole genome going to whole population doing functional genomics on an entire population and we were very enthusiastic about this to some degree motivated by the great success recently of all the EQTL and related projects and we urge people to really start thinking about a almost a personal functional genomics that goes with you know personal genomics the vision is in the future in addition to having your personal genome sequence you will be doing personal functional genomics on yourself doing gene expressions, methylomes what not on yourself over time and analyzing them and we need to be prepared for that type of data and then another thing that came up in the breakout was that functional genomics is really valuable beyond just characterizing variants. There's this idea that we can use high throughput sequencing to do more things for instance to characterize cell types irregardless of genetic variants for instance to develop biomarkers and a great example of this was the challenge talk last night from Aviv Regev where she talked about single cell transcriptomics and this human cell atlas project. So now I'll just try to summarize everything that we talked about in one slide. So the key idea as we think that our breakout was about integrating function and sequence and we think this is a great time to do this on a large scale basically as we have lots of variants now we also have lots of new technologies for you know giving us function on a large scale. We felt that the right way to do this would be in terms of a large scale resource project providing a functional framework for the entire genome and you know there's some aspects of this resource that we looked at what type of function should we look at molecular cellular organismal we think the first two really scale well and can be systematized well. There was this dichotomy between bottom up and top down should we look at all possible variants or all possible regions of the genome that intersect them with disease variants or should we start with the disease variants and then figure out doing broad functional assays on them. And then there was also this other dichotomy between the sort of breath wise standardized resource and then really the domain experts drilling into the genes again we need both we need to integrate them with informatics or architecture and then finally there was these other aspects that really came up the scaling the functional genomics to a population the personal functional genomics and then this idea that the there's more to functional genomics than just looking at variants and and so forth and that was really a summary of our our session. Let me add one thing that I meant to emphasize is that the multiple members of the group felt where you see something where you say well that's not scalable that maybe one thing in HDRI should do is challenge people to make them scalable so think the impossible now because I who was it was Joe yesterday said we would have never dreamed we'd be where we are with sequencing or at least most of us wouldn't have I think five years ago and so it's hard to scale the organismal well maybe somebody will come up with a way to do it and maybe one of the things in the nature I should do is put those challenges out. So so it seems like there you're talking about two things one locally in the genome what what changes in gene expression are mediated by a particular variant and trying to say that I'm not sure exactly where that fits whether some of that fits under and code whether some of that is its is its own project and then once you know once you think you know what product is being affected and how then trying to figure out how that how that product is deployed and and and altered the former is more obviously scalable than the latter although you can imagine at least creating resources so that when you pick when you want to go in and do deep studies you can you can have that but did you talk did you talk much about how how this interacts with encode yes and certainly thought about that and there were several encode people in the room as well but it's but and it's beyond encode as well the epigenome project and several others as well and whether you call it encode or not it's at least a big part of that mission is to find and that's that was combination is a combination of non coding as well as the coding elements like in some sense the coding the the coding elements are not completely finished but much much further along than the mill probably million different sys acting regulatory elements that and that clearly is part of this a major part of it but let me bill I'm not sure if you were getting at this but somebody yesterday and I can't remember said let's don't forget about the proteins who do I you and others maybe and certainly that matters too so one of the questions is whether you could so so we know how to to take sys acting transcriptional regulatory elements and test them on a high high scale and probably could do a lot better than that you heard one yesterday there are several others when you start to think about proteins and you have variants then they it seems like each protein becomes its own project except there are classes of proteins you know iron channels you and so you could consider having ways of testing those you know at least classes of those and maybe way beyond what I can imagine now ways of doing that on a on a maybe even an ultra high throughput way and that's probably valuable to consider both I can I just add that I agree with that and we have lots of examples in model organisms even that don't have a backbone that that that there are a lot of cases where are if you measure RNA levels you have a very incomplete view of of gene product functional gene product deployment either because of gene of RNA editing or because of variations in in the translatability of different products or or localization of products localization of RNAs and and proteins extremely important as well and so not having all of that information as a catalog would be extremely valuable so this is a on the one hand very exciting direction to consider and I guess I'm sure that you thought about this in your session but it it can be helpful to learn from history when one things about scaling up functional you know systematic functional efforts because it there those can be very vulnerable to scaling up false positives and false negatives and you know type one and type two errors because one doesn't know often exactly when one is making those errors when you get into a systematic experimentation so one could imagine a couple different ways of approaching this one would be taking very well defined assays that that are where one understands signal to noise extremely well and maybe in those running running systematic studies where you're only going to look for extremely strong signal so you know things that are sort of in the two fold range here and there I mean whatever whatever one defines but they would be extremely strong signal and that's how one would and maybe that would be looking at variance for which we really don't know the function so the so very strong signal would give us a clue as to what the function might be but then the other stream would be to pick context where one can partner with disease experts people who have been studying these areas for years and can and can help advise context specific extremely exquisite assays that are really only practiced by a few but where the parameters are very well understood and then in those put maybe kind of a more candidate set of alleles where we're trying to understand function as opposed to sort of saying we're going to take you know four assays and we're going to run everything across because otherwise you these kinds of things and easily lead to lots of spurious data artifacts etc if we're not careful so you just articulated better than we did exactly that point about the the two different you know top down versus bottom up approaches and and so clearly you would want to do that when you want to delve into the details and that and that while we said that's not scalable maybe there are there are lots of experts you know part of it is just is is the coordination part of that and so that there's no question that that should be done but your point about the false about you know you might be testing things that aren't important if the assays are ultra high throughput and very very inexpensive I mean you could argue test every single variant we've ever seen you know even and maybe we could do that but we probably don't need to because we have other hints and maybe even other evidence that this region even though it's out in the middle of nowhere is probably involved in transcription because there's a whole bunch of stuff going on there you know his stone marks etc so a guided approach for that slightly agnostic but still guided based on other kinds of function might be one of the ways at least to study transcription elements I just I just want to add to Rick's comment that you know part of really integrating the kind of domain experts with this breath sort of oriented resource could be developing kind of our estimates for the things you know if you put this data together in an intelligent way you can use one to calibrate the other and vice versa which I think would be very powerful yeah those are great comment and we're hearing some very exciting ideas and for large-scale projects could have a really big impact I wanted to generalize what he just said to emphasize that we have to have objective metrics of progress we were stating these big lofty goals and we need to have some idea of whether or not we're really making progress a really tough one for this one is to take your predictions to a panel of domain experts and as one member of our group said yesterday well would this really give an accurate diagnosis and an action plan to a patient it's that those are really tough but I think we should embrace those but also the I think you might have alluded to this but things like the cast competitions you know to have a have a set of say well in this case it was not known protein structures and can you predict them but we could we could do the similar thing we're doing it for our gasp and other things but having metrics of progress you got to have them I was gonna say I will certainly agree that having metrics of progress is important but I think it's also important to think about you know maybe this resource is not necessarily going to have predictive value for the patient but maybe it's going to be something that people going to use the starting point for follow-up experiments I mean I think you know what encompassing resource that's really meant to enable genomics throughout the NIH just beyond NHGRI is really going to be the starting point for people going to drill into specific things and really understand them so I think we need to think about exactly what metrics would be good in that context so so if one goal of an HRI is to connect sequence with health and disease it's striking to me that an item missing from both these breakout groups is the absence of an effort to connect drugs that can impact genome function with efforts to understand variation and that there's it's just one new chemical probe JQ1 directly against BRD4 can have it's been shown to have a positive impact in preclinical studies on cancer cardiac hypertrophy inflammatory and inflammation and it's a it's a reversible male contraceptive and mice so you know and there's a broad broad effort to develop preclinical small molecules that impact the genome why in the world wouldn't we want to be engaged in that so we should have written that out because we did discuss that and so yeah IPS cells or whatever cells and pharma is actually and other groups are very high throughput screening of cellular types of assays so there's no reason why we can't mesh that and in fact people some people do but the idea that you have the have the variants you know in a cell from the person it could be or however you want to do it and screen use that to test for thousands of things compounds not just drugs other environmental things as well so that's clearly should that's what we met by cellular assays we should have expanded and that I but I think that's a really important one I see and and let me just add one thing and connected to that I think we have a very unsophisticated view of all the proteins that interact with our genome we just touch the surface of that so if you if you want to connect sequence variation with with function we just need to understand the other 99% of the proteins that are interacting with genome I know this is you mentioned this but I think it and it was mentioned yesterday but I think this is an area where model where model organisms is really quite important to have a model organism line because this is there's going to be a scenario where you want to know you want to be able to close the loop between here is a set of assays we did to study the variation in this protein and then this is how it impact or all these cis regulatory elements this is how it perhaps impacted this cell model and then in a model organism you can go all the way and say for some subset of those this is how it impacted the organism and it's that latter thing which you you can only do observational studies in human and by having a model organism component to this one can close out that whole system and I do think that I mean the obvious one is mouse but I think I think fish may well be quite useful in this space as well just because the cheap and cheapness and scalability of it well I mean obviously we very much agree with your point and I just like them says that one of the things that did come up in the breakout that unfortunately we didn't emphasize on the slides is really the importance of conservation really you know things are conserved both in terms of the sequence but also in terms of how they behave across humans and model organisms really have a strong handle on you know what's important in the genome and I think that's a really important way of understanding variants and and sort of prioritizing them you and just to argue a little bit yes observational in humans except when you start to take cells out and then manipulate them the way we so you can do experiments but they're not no no cellular experiments are totally in zone and maybe organoids and I think that I think all of that should be should what should do those things and I think it's an incredibly positive thing but there's a there's obviously a level that you can't do and and and that's that you've got to have a model yeah one thing we didn't talk about much was how to implement these sort of things is this a series of our what I don't know if that's beyond the purview of this workshop but is it is it a Carlos Carlos but maybe I could see this this is very heterogeneous area I think the concept could still be described now and Bob Henry just side barring on a little bit and it will take some creativity as the best way to do it and you can envision this implemented in smaller fashion but you could also see it implemented in you know center sort of activities especially the scalable parts too and I think it will take some creativity it's the best way to implement different aspects of what's presented here I just want to ask if there's one more question because we do have to move on


taking a look at Tanaka and the pitch breakdown in this game we know a lot of sliders a lot of splitters Jack talked on the pregame about how he has to have those pitches in order to be effective he did not have them against Texas eventually he did in this performance against the Rays and normally for the Yankees they get a quality start and they win there 47 and 4 this year entering this game when they get a start of at least six innings and three runs allowed or fewer still on pace at 47 and 5 for the best winning percentage all time but today that just wasn't enough because the offense couldn't come through in what was a nice steady performance from Tanaka right that's what makes today even more frustrating if you're the Yankees because when this game first starts out it looks as if Tanaka doesn't have that splitter and the Yankees are sitting in the dugout saying wait a second this will be the second straight start he doesn't have the splitter but he makes sure that that deficit doesn't go beyond to nothing and then he steadies himself and he gets no offense of support but I think what the Yankees have to like about Tanaka is how much of a professional he is Ryan through eight splitters in the first inning it was clear that pitch wasn't there for him so in the second and the third inning he backed away from it only threw it a couple of times but David Cohn has always said and he threw a splitter you can't give up on your pitches at some point in the game you've got to find it again and Tanaka found it in the fourth fifth and sixth he went back to using that splitter as a weapon he leaves down two to nothing after six innings as you mentioned that's a quality start usually that's a win not today not with this offense an abysmal performance from the Yankee offense
