Billy Ray, feeling good, Lewis. And I believe we have Mr. Stan Harley in the house today. Stan, how are you doing? Mr. Pezzavento, I'm doing live and well. We have a question from a listener in Tucson, Arizona. He just raised his hand. That's me. What do you define as a blow off top, Stan? We don't see him very often, but I don't know if this is it. Why don't you continue on with what you'd like to show us today, Stan? I won't bother with any more silly questions. No, no, no. Thank you. Good point. Actually, I think that's what's ongoing now. I probably depart a little bit from your views. I think you're thinking is we're like right there or pretty doggone close. I think the balance of this year is going to have a northbound push to it. And when it's all said and done, I think it will be viewed as a blow off top. The pullbacks are brief. And boy, if you're not quick, you're missing out. Quick and the dead, you got that right. Yeah, I think you're in almost a near vertical ascent. I don't think it's over yet. I think it's going to continue for the balance of the year and I've got some. We're targeting where I think it's probably going to peak out. We'll get into that down the road. But in the near term, I think the long side investor is going to be amply rewarded because I think the path of lease resistance is northbound. Let's get into some charts and we'll explore what I think is going on here. There we go. Now we got it. I've got a light on in my eyes and it's difficult for me to see. Here is, hey, since I'm in Arizona right now, people who don't live here, people who don't live in the desert don't understand how really beautiful the desert is. You appreciate that because you live in the state of Arizona. And I'm a former resident of the state of Arizona in Virginia, but for a month now I'm living here, visiting family and friends. In fact, you and I are probably going to get together here again in the next couple of days, which I look forward to. But the desert is just really, really pretty, I think. Look at those Swarovs. Nowhere else in the world but this. You live here and you certainly appreciate the beauty. Have you ever seen a cowboy movie? You've seen Swarovs. Absolutely. Here is a weekly chart of the stock market. This reflects the cycle that I've discussed a lot with you and on the air and show my publications. It's what I call the primary weekly cycle. And what I have found is that the dominant lows on the weekly chart tend to recur at a rhythm of about 34 weeks. Now when I say a 34 week cycle, eight month cycle, that's the nominal rate. That cycle like all, like most market cycles, expands and contracts. But if one analyzes it very carefully and looks for a peak in the histogram of where all these cyclical troughs occur, one will find that it falls right at 34 weeks slash eight months. Both of those, of course, are Fibonacci numbers. And the most recent occurrence of that low marked the low we had at the tail end of October first of November. And by my reckoning it's due once again in the latter part of June. So before we get to a low, obviously we have to have a high. And then one other interesting phenomenon that occurs with cyclical analysis is the phenomenon of right and left translation, which you and I've discussed a lot, simply put for the new viewers, in a bull market environment, we tend to see the crest or the high point of the cycle and price occur to the right of the midpoint of the cycle. So if with your eye, take a look at the purple lines, denoting the troughs, and note where the crests, the high point of the cycle has occurred relative to the midpoint of that cycle. And you can see in the last 34 weeks cycle that it occurred to the right. And one prior to that occurred to the right. The one prior to that on the way down, the last couple occurred to the left. As the market was heading south into the October 22 and 22 bottom, we had left translation. Well, now we're heading higher and we're getting repeated right translation, burgo bull market structure. Looks right to me. Oh, I recognize that. Hey, the precious yellow stuff. Here is a monthly chart going back 50, 60 years. And these are all the major lows highlighted with the purple lines that occurred on the monthly gold chart. And as one can see 102 months, 97 months, 97 months, 90 and so on. When I put the data into a spreadsheet and do what's called a regression analysis, which is a mathematical technique for finding the best fit, it turns out we have a cycle here of 94 months, which happens to be the Lucas number 47 times two. And I work a lot with Fibonacci and Lucas numbers. I find that Lucas numbers are far more important and defining either peak to peak or trough to trough sequences. Fibonacci sequences tend to work better in my experience in defining moves either from low to high or high to low. But again, we've got a 94 month cycle here, the product of Lucas 47 times two, and my regression analysis targets the May 2024 time period. Well, here we are fifth. So if I'm right about this and I'll show another chart here in just a moment, but clearly we've got right hand translation going on in the gold market as we had all the way up from the April 2001 bottom. What I think is going to occur here is we're going to get what I call extreme right translation, where the crest or the high point of the cycle occurs not only to the right of the midpoint, but occurs very close to the trough. And when that happens, you get a very short but sharp drawdown into the trough. So the mathematics says the trough is due. And then you've got other cyclical forces pushing the market up. So you get the high and the low occurring in close proximity. And when that happens, a very short but sharp downdraft to accomplish the cyclical schedule. I call that extreme right translation. I think that's what's developing here. So still looking for May bottom and gold. Let's take a look at the next chart. This is a daily chart going back a couple of years. And look, this is my cyclical template. These are evenly spaced vertical lines. And just for the eye, you can see they're about roughly four months apart. But look how regular that is with just using what I call the LAWR method. That's a very scientific method, LAWR. Okay, we'll be right back with Stan Harley folks, the Harley stock market letter.

Okay, we're back with Stan Harley, the Harley Stock Market Letter. Please continue, young man. All right. We're talking about the gold. And what I thought I'd do was highlight a cycle on the daily chart that spans normally about eight months.  Don't tell anybody this. It's called the LAR method, L-A-R. Looks about right. I use it all the time. I use it all the time. I use it all the time. I use it all the time. But, you know, the LAR method can be pretty good sometimes. Now, what I've done in the next slide here is I put all of those lows that you saw on the chart into a spreadsheet and done what's called a regression analysis, which is a statistical technique that finds the best fit to the data series. And I construct a linear equation of the form y equals mx plus b. And I can model it and I can look at the standard deviation. And also I can project into the future using that linear equation. And what it's telling me is the next low point in this cycle, which spans about 76 and change trading days. 76, by the way, is a Lucas number. Surprise, surprise. The analysis suggests the next low in that series is due right around May 17, 2024. Okay. Right in here. With a standard deviation of about three and a half days. And we've got a question from Jeff in New Jersey. Jeff, are you there? Hi, yes. Thank you, Larry. Please go ahead. I want to ask your advice on something. I'm doing a study. I'm in a lot of different time frames. And what I would like to do is collect data at different points in time of what direction the trend is just up to that point. Whether it's, you know, turning up training down or going sideways. And I'm not satisfied with my definition of how to determine the trend. So I was going to ask your recommendation. Like, let's say you're doing a study. You're going to pick a point on a chart and you're going to say, okay, meeting up to this point very locally. Which way is the trend going? Like, how would you determine which way the trend is going? Great question. You know, a numerical rigorous point of view, not just like eyeballing it. I can do that. But I'm not confident. I want to collect, you know, objective objectively determined data. Well, Larry and I and all analysts where there were professional amateur struggle with that every day. If we knew what the trade with the trend was with absolute certainty. Well, we put on the trade you the longer short and just sit back and let it ride. I believe in doing a top down approach. That is, let's say the stock market. For example, I look at yearly data monthly, weekly, daily, and maybe even shorter term term period time periods than that. You can use moving averages. You can use indicators and measure trend. I like percentage range, which is a range bound indicator between zero and 100 with some smoothing constants. You can use RSI, stochastics. All those are very good for assessing trend. Trend doesn't go straight up or straight down.  So not an easy question to answer, but I think as a technician, we look at the charts. We look at some of the indicators that I just talked about. And then last but certainly not least, I think it's imperative we understand market cycles. And I show some of them on the air here with Larry's program that I use. And for me, cycles tell me when the trend is up, when the trend is down and when the next recurring either high or low is likely. And I think that's the best you and I as traders and analysts can possibly do. Now to exploit that information from profit is a whole other discipline. Trading and analyzing are related, but they're not one and the same. It takes a whole different set of skills to be a good trader as compared to being a good analyst. You can be one or you can be the other and not necessarily both. Yeah, absolutely. Okay. Great. Well, I don't want to take all your time. Thank you very much. I appreciate your input. My pleasure. Go ahead. Good question, Steve. Yeah, great question. Yes, indeed. Let's let's continue on with the goal. Okay. The analysis suggests to me that trend is probably going to be lower into the May time period in a very, very short term. We might have a little bit of buoyancy, but based on my work with the monthly cycle saying about three months from now, we should have a washout low and the daily work also conveying and somewhat similar suggestion. I think we need to be watchful for a potential pancake move to the downside, not starting tomorrow or maybe even next week, but in the coming weeks with move lower into the May time period. Not certain cycles expand. They contract. Sometimes they disappear, particularly when Stan goes on the air with Larry and says, hey, everybody, take a look at this. The cycle gods are up there watching and they're going to say, we're going to do our very best to make this guy look foolish. And they pull the levers and turn the knobs and make sure they don't work. But maybe they're not listening today. So if they're not, we might get by on this one. It's going to be close. I'll tell you, you don't see parabolic moves like this very often, but they usually end the same way. But you know, this time might be different for sure. We've seen it happen before. That's in golden 1980 and silver 1980 and stuff. And look at Bitcoin. Bitcoin went from what a dollar to 67,000 and low operator. That's a big move. Well, we still have some time before they play the music. So let's, let's continue on. Let's take a look at home. Yes, please do. Go right ahead. It's something that a lot of folks are interested in. I think the best source of data for home prices that we can all gather and obtain is right off the Fred website. That's the Federal Reserve website that tracks home price data from SMP and K-Sheller. And there are 20 large regional indices and the 10 largest metropolitan regional indices as well. And there's a national index. We can all download this, put this into a spreadsheet. They provide the graphs, but if you want to do any analysis, you've got to put it into your own spreadsheet and analyze it yourself. Very, very simple here, but I've overlaid the monthly data, which is in blue on this chart. These are monthly bars with a 18-month moving average. And take note of the crossing where the monthly price bars in blue cross either above or below that 18-month moving average. You have a very simple, but very, very effective buy-sell signal for real estate. And you can see several months ago, we made a little high. We came down and we kissed the 18-month moving average, but we did not break below it. So no sell signal.  Well, okay. Can we maybe analyze this utilizing some of the techniques that I've talked about? Well, we can. What I've done here, Larry, is I've taken the same data and I've dumped it to make it a little bit easier to see. I've dumped it into a spreadsheet and I computed what's called a 27-month percentage range indicator. Stan? We're running out of time, buddy. We'll have it on again soon. But God bless you. Thanks for coming on. I'll see you soon. Okay, pal? Thank you so much. We're looking forward to seeing you down here. Stan Harley, folks. The Harley stock market letter.

TFNN.com Educating Investors Norman Winsky on the line and in the house. Norman, how are you doing? Okay, Larry. Great to hear from you. Thanks for having me on your show. Well, special thing because tomorrow is Chinese New Year and I know you're very strong because your ancestry is laced with Chinese everywhere, just like mine. Everybody's Chinese when they go to the restaurant, that's for sure. There you go. I was last on your show on January the 22nd, I believe, and we had some things happen over that previous weekend and some things after that. So I'm going to go over those now and review and see how we did. So over the 19th weekend, we had Pluto entering the sign of Aquarius. Pluto is a 248-year cycle. So Pluto changing signs only occurs on average about every 20 years and not only did we have Geo from the point of view of the Earth geocentric, we had it also occurring from the point of view of the Sun, a geocentric. They're both happening there within a few days of each other is a rather rare event. So anyway, so we were looking for maybe a turn, a possible turn in cattle, cocoa, copper, cotton, hogs and teabonds. Of course, the Helio version is the same. Excuse me. Then the night of the 20th, AC is after the close, PM is afternoon. I don't have any AMs, that would be more. After the close of the night of the 22nd, we had Mercury at South latitude. By the way, if you want any help with any of these technical terms, please feel free to contact me. I'll give you a free class on this, on these terminology here. It's all, once you're familiar with it, it's all pretty simple. Nothing I'm doing here is over a fifth grade level. Don't need any advanced math, any worksheets. So, Fourier analysis and that stuff. Mercury, if we did, I couldn't do it, by the way. So anyway, Mercury's zero South latitude. Anytime you have a Mercury cycle, we want to be looking at the grains, corn, soybeans, wheat. And by the way, the stocks potentially respond to all events. So just assume the stock market is for all these events. Then we had the night of the 23rd, over after the close. We had Pluto to the U.S. natal chart, that's based on where the plans were when our country was founded on the 4th of July of 1776. And anytime we have that, we have stocks, stocks, bonds, U.S. dollar. And then we had the afternoon of the 25th, we had a full moon in the sign of Leo. And anytime we have a full moon, we look at financials, grains, precious metals, oil. And because it was in the sign of Leo, that's corn and gold. So we're emphasizing corn and gold for that full moon. And then the night of the 26th, we had Jupiter lining up again with the U.S. chart for stocks, C, bonds, U.S. dollar. And then also that weekend, that was a weekend. Yeah, that was a weekend. So that's Friday after the close over the weekend. Uranus turned direct. That's the opposite of retrograde. It has to do with the relative motion of the Earth to the other planets. And that's cattle, copper and cotton. You know, Taurus is the bull. So naturally you would think it might have something to do with cattle. We'll see if that worked or not. Here's the moon here. Here's our moon point here, the afternoon of the 25th. And we're definitely got double, double up on the points there for corn. Had I had it wrong? I wouldn't put two red arrows there, but green is good. And we got to get two points for corn there for the full moon, Leo. The beams were not friendly at all. They were about a day early over here for our beam or mercury point here. And then over here on the moon, we were about a day late. So we got two strikes on the beams. Red is a miss.  Here, wheat went 50-50. The mercury point didn't work a little early. But the moon was very good. That was, I think, the high of the month there on the moon for the wheat. But here's a little history along the lines of, you know, some of the great market traders and gurus of the 20th century. There was a sort of a contemporary of Gann, Mr. Pugh. He wrote a book about how he made a fortune trading wheat on the lunar cycle, you know? I forget the guy's first name, but the P... Burton Pugh. Burton Pugh. Yeah, Burton Pugh. P-U-G-H, I believe is how he spelled his name. Anybody wants to look that up? Here's, anytime we go sideways, I sit on the sidelines, and we put a yellow box there to mark that. We had two points there for the cattle, and the cattle's going sideways. I largely said that the cattle was declining there, but you're kind of in a gray area. I erred on the side of caution and said that it was sideways, so we do nothing there. Had you bought on the decline, you would have done really well, but I'm going to count that as a nothing. And then we went up here to a little one-day kind of topping, one to two, I guess, two-day topping area there. If you sold there, you could have made a little bit of money on the cattle. Here's the cotton here. We had our two points there for cotton. Or, see, what is that? Cotton, cotton, let me look that up a little in a second. Oh, that's our Pluto point, right? Pluto. A point there where we had the over the weekend, and then, that afternoon, we had the second Pluto point that would have worked for you. And so you went 50-50 over here, but hold on, we had Uranus turn direct in the sign of Taurus. Taurus is cotton, and you made a very nice low there. As you can see, the next, actually, it went a little bit lower the next day, and then up, up, and away. Here's silver. You have a little, like, about a one-day top there. You have a little pullback. I think that was good for about 20 cents. And, you know, on the big contract there, if you're treating that, that's a thousand. It doesn't look like much, but that's a thousand dollars you're looking at, potentially there. Here's the gold. It was really friendly on the gold here now. We did have the double, double emphasis there on the gold, and that was the, that day was the low of the month for the gold, back on the moon, on the full moon in Leo. Here's a crude oil. Again, if something happened there, I don't know, it pulled things, some of these markets a day early, and we were a day early there. I had that big top there, so I had to count that as a miss. Here's your S&P. We had these three points here. Notice we have, like, seven, eight points for the S&P. All the points I mentioned applied to the stock market. So we had one, two, three misses there where we kind of, yeah, didn't go in and then it popped up. But then when we got here, that was a little bit of a short-term top there, and the scaling is such, I think that's about 80 handles on the S&P. There was something like that. Let's see. It's about 20 down to about maybe 40. Make that for about, excuse me, about 40 handles. Then it popped back up. You had another chance to make about another 40 handles there. And then over here, we got two points there that were, were obviously, they couldn't get much more sideways on that, so that was a pass. So we got, well, three misses, two winners on the S&P. The key bonds were probably by best market of this period where we had four points for the bonds and we got, everyone was a potential winner. If you're sold there, the next day you're down. Obviously, you said there was a bit better. Got to pay a few bills. Got to pay a few bills, my friends. Stay with us. We'll be back with Norm Winsky, Astro Trans folks. He's not finished.

And as I showed here, we had the four points and everyone was a winner. And we were right there on the low, right below the bottom. And then up, up, and away. Next, we're going to look at some currencies.  And it relied back up. And for another one-day, one-to-two-day sell there to decline. So you had potentially two winners there. And then it went sideways with a third point for the dollar. And so we took the pass. Here's a British pound decline into the, or that's the moon. That's the full moon. And then it popped back up. So you had a chance to make some money there. Here's the Canadian dollar. I think that's near the low of the month, but maybe not. I went lower over there. So not quite. So anyway, then nice low there and big up, up from the moon. And there's a euro ahead of a one-day pop-up there off the moon. So we have you count up the green arrows and the red arrows. You got 19 winners, eight misses out of 27, 70.37%. I did not show you this in advance, but I have lots of witnesses. People, this is in my letter every month. Been doing this for, I don't know, 45, 50, 45 years or more. Maybe 50. I have to get my calculator out. But it gets so that long, you know? Anyway, every month I draw this blue line in advance for the month.  But I changed Bradley a lot and started on the second of January and ran through the second of February. And you can see there, I think it's a pretty, but maybe 85% correlation pretty good. And if you were to study this chart, there's a whole course, a whole class here on these different points. There's Jupiter turning direct, Mercury turning direct there. There's the new moon there. These various symbols, you know, Mercury, zero south latitude. You see it being a little, kind of a little, I guess it'll be more of a kind of about a little treating low there. And there's your full moon there. And so forth. You see, there's Uranus turning direct there. A little bit of a pullback low there before it went up. So that's pretty good. So let's see what's, let's talk about what's coming up here in the next few days. Right now, tonight, this weekend, we have a new moon in the sign of Aquarius. And it's not just any new moon, Larry. It's a new moon at perigee. That is the technical term. It's a synergy when you have two or more cycles converging together like that. And they also call that a super moon and so forth. And so that's when the moon, what is perigee? That's as the moon goes around the earth about 25, 26 days. And it's not in a circle. It's elliptical. And so there's a point where the moon is closest to the earth and we're as far as from the earth. And perigee is where it's closest to the earth. And it's a new moon. So the classic, of course, is the full moon at perigee. And that's when the moon looks really big. But because it's a new moon, you might have to see that it's all dark. It's dark. The moon is dark. So anyway, the moon will be close to the earth and a new moon. You'll have big gravitational pull on the earth. And anytime we have a new moon full moon, we look at financials, grains, precious metals, oil. And because it's in the sign of Aquarius, we're running a special copy. Notice we have a theme of Aquarius and Copper here. Because on the night of the 12th, we have geocentric Mars entering the sign of Aquarius. Of course, then you want to look at Copper. And then the next night we have Venus. It's a cold ruling planet for Copper. And so that's in this group here, cattle, Copper, cotton, sugar, wheat. So keep your eye on Copper. We'll see if it does anything on that next few days. Well, now this is maybe the most entertaining part of the show, Larry. Every February, here I have this. This stuff is copied right out of my letter. I did summarize it. Cut it down. So we won't take up so much time. But every February, I do what I call the February Forecast for Fun Fest, where I do these sort of fun, some of these fun forecasting models. Like you have your Chinese astrology. Last year was the year of the rabbit. The rabbit was forecasting an up year. And we got that on the downside. The rabbit was forecasting more peace and. Peace and what's the word? Tranquility or whatever around the world and so forth. And obviously that did not work out so well, you know. So anyway, it was so less. So the rabbit was right last year about an up year prosperity of the stock market went up. But this year we have the year of the dragon. And that'll be tomorrow, the 10th. And what's what's the dragon saying? What the dragon says most auspicious years of any in the Chinese zodiac as the only mythical creature. The zodiac dragon is considered to be both powerful and benevolent because the rules of the earthly realm don't apply to dragons. Dragons can fly. Dragons can fly this year. It has infinite possibilities. It's a year of increased confidence and security and making dreams come true and sharing that wealth with others. So I would assume that the dragon is forecasting an up year for the stock market. Now we're going to go and talk about the January Brominer. Not everybody knows the title of this, but everybody's heard that almost everybody's heard the phrase as January goes so goes the year that the title. The name for that is the January Brominer. We look at what January did. I think there was a hundred year string there for the Dow Jones where if the Dow was up in January, you had it up here. It worked almost every time. And January was down for the year. You had it down here for the Dow Jones. I'm doing S&P now. And so last year, the model said that we should be up. And in fact, we were up 6.18% for the S&P. And so therefore that was pretty good. Oh wait, so January, oh no, I take it. I said that wrong. The month of January was up 6.8%. And for the year, we were up 24.2%. There we go. So that's pretty good. And now for this year's forecast, 2024, we had it up in January. So we should have it up here. And let's see. Now I've taken this model one step further. I don't know that anybody else thought about this, but in fact, this is what we call a fractal, where you're taking a piece of something and extrapolating out the bigger picture. So I decided I would see it perhaps along the way, along the year, that you could forecast turning points during the year. And in fact, it's worked out pretty well over the many years I've done this. So I'm going to be publishing the, I do this for 28 different markets. And I'll be publishing the 2024 fractals. I'm going to be putting that together this weekend based on the January price action. So if you're interested in that, get a hold of me. If you want to subscribe to my letter, by the way, you get a half off on the fractal forecast. Now here's where it's cut, what I think is really interesting. The January barometer can actually forecast the Super Bowl. And the Super Bowl has a Super Bowl indicator. And the Super Bowl indicator has an excellent track record of forecasting what the stock market's going to do. Well, if they both are going to forecast the same thing, they must, they have to be in agreement at a high percentage of the time. Well, if January is an up month, that means the Super Bowl indicator says that you have the NFL is divided into two conferences. You have what's called the NFC, short for the National Football Conference and the AFC, short for the American Football Conference. And the champions of those two conferences get together in the Super Bowl. If the history has been that, oh, we're going to break. Until they have to pay the full amount. We'll be right back, folks.

According to the January barometer, what happened in January, the market was up, let's see, we were up on the S&P 1.59% for January. That would indicate that the NFC, San Francisco 49ers, playing the AFC champion, Kansas C Chief, that the 49ers should win the Super Bowl. Makes sense to me. I don't bet on them, but it sounds like a good idea. Well, that's based on the statistical history of the Super Bowl. How many times did that happen in January? What's the statistics behind these past 50 years in the Super Bowl? How many times it's been right now? Super Bowl indicator, up until I had a couple of bad years here, up until that point it was over 80%. It's probably 75% now. Wow, that's still pretty good. Wow, that's darn good. I know you had it a couple of years, but you had four or five right in a row. Some of them were surprises too. Listen to that, we're coming to the end of the show here. If the 49ers win and the stock market keeps going up, we'll have the armors again, okay? Okay. Let me show you real quick what a fractal looks like. I drew these blue lines, blue bars, based on January price action. Back in February of 2023, then at the end of the year we overlaid the black bars, the actual prices.

So there's a really interesting kind of practice going around the personal development law of attraction sphere and it's this idea of the two-cup method for manifesting. So I want to show you it quickly from another person's channel and I'm going to jump in and kind of give my two cents on what I think it is, like is it real, is it BS and some other little thoughts there. The two-cup method is a manifesting method in which you decide on one thing in your life you would like to change. You take two cups and label one with your current situation and the other with your desired situation. You fill the cup with your current situation up with water and then pour it into your desired situation cup. Alright, so that's the gist of what the method is and how it's supposed to work. Let's jump into a breakdown of what I think is valuable and maybe not valuable with this. What's up guys? Alex Hein here, author of the book Master of the Day. By the way, did you see the new sexy cover? I'm going to keep saying that until you buy it and tag me on Instagram aggressively. Now two-cup method on the other hand is very gentle form of manifesting but I'll tell you what I do think there's some merit to it and here's what I think. Alright, so basically the gist of the method is as you saw you take the old reality you're frustrated with, it could be money, weight, financial, dating, whatever it is, right? You pour the water into the cup and then you pour it into the new one that's labeled with the new thing you want. Now I think it can work of course. Do I think it has some magical power? No, but here's what I think the magic is. The big thing is that it's all about just the tension, intention and attention. So I think for example one thing I say to my clients is no one ever loses weight without the intention of losing weight. So people don't just naturally lose 100 pounds unless they're like wow, something has gone seriously wrong in my life, I need to change. No one doubles their income accidentally, like it just rarely, rarely happens. No one becomes super successful by accident. It truly is very calculated in most cases. I think the same thing is true of manifesting or goal-setting whatever you want to call it. When you think I used to date crappy women or crappy men, now I want to date great men or great women, when you do that you're formally telling your consciousness, I want to do something different. And you've put that message in there. It's just like I am sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. I want to change. You've activated an emotion. And if you know anything about thinking we're rich and all of these manifestation type processes, the key thing is not the visualization. The key thing is emotionally charging the words or emotionally charging it. And again, this is not magic. What it is is I want to lose weight versus I am so sick and tired of my mom making fun of me commenting on my weight. The doctor always saying I'm fat and I need to lose weight for my health. The fact that every man has broken up with me because I gained weight. Like I'm sick and tired. That's a woman who's ready to change because you could feel the emotional charge. And that is to me what the essence of any goal-setting or manifesting, visualizing all is the same thing. There has to be that emotional, emotionalized words because then things will actually change for you, even if it's just your own habits. Now the other thing is I think people get caught up in all these words. Quantum jumping, parallel realities, all this stuff out there that's hard to in the moment conceptualize as something that's real. And my philosophy is does it matter? Does it really matter? Do you need to know if alternate realities are real or quantum jumping is a real thing? I don't know. I'm not a physicist. I got a D in physics.  I don't know if parallel realities are real. All I know is if I'm broke, I needed to earn more money. I was not the fitness level I wanted and with not the health I wanted. So I changed the things about my life first through intention and then through habits. And they changed. All I knew is that I never dated the girl I wanted before 25. So I had to change things about myself to be able to attract the kind of woman I wanted. So I wouldn't get caught up in whether it's spiritual or it's psychological or if it's real or not, just try it. And I think that the very act of changing the internal story, the narrative, just half of my book, Master of the Day, the narrative is changing your intention and your focus. It's asking, OK, well, what if I failed before my whole life with losing weight, with dating great people, with having enough money? Well, what if I could have double the money I need? What might I do to make that a reality? Well, what if I wanted to lose 30 pounds and then feel amazing about myself now and after? What could I possibly do to make that happen? What if I wanted an amazing relationship, no matter the fact that all my other ones have sucked or failed? Well, what might I have to do to make that a reality, both internally and externally, with my habits? I think don't get caught up with whether it's spiritual mumbo jumbo with wearing the tin foil hat or if it's just a psychological practice of focusing your attention, which is on if you focus it on growth, you're going to grow and you're going to improve. So I think, yeah, there's a lot to this two cup method. I think on one level, it's just a gimmick for focusing your attention. But absolutely, I think it can help. So whatever method you find works for you in terms of changing your intention and your attention and then also results in changing your habits, it's probably going to help you and it's probably going to work. So I hope that video helps. That is my two cents.  If you've had experience with manifesting, whatever you want to call it, or you've watched my video on my manifesting experiment, comment below and let me know what method seems to work best for you for reaching your goals. And of course, the best way to stay in touch is to grab my free personal development and weight loss challenge at modernhealthmong.com forward slash YouTube. And you can also watch my last two videos that came out here. And actually that manifesting experiment I did right here and the results it provided.


Oh, good day, mate! You know, single-use lightweight plastic shopping bags, like the ones you get with groceries and takeaways, are damaging Queensland's environment, so from July 1, 2018, plastic bags are done. If you use plastic shopping bags as bin liners, there are other ways to take care of your rubbish. Use a box! Or wrap up your rubbish in newspaper and pop it in the bin. Hello, Mr Bin. Well, one small change to your routine will make a huge impact on Queensland's environment. What's your plan for the plastic bag ban?


When we look back on the treaties, the original treaties were intended to build a common relationship between two sovereign nations, and it was to create a relationship where you worked in harmony and consulted with each other at what would work best for all nations, not just one or the other. Those practices, sacred, always attached to the land, always attached to the water, always recognized the air, always recognized sacred fire, always brought those four elements into ceremony, and that's for us the gift of life. And then we talk about if the other faiths come in and they come in with their different philosophies, we have been taught it's okay to be different, it's okay to have a different belief, it's okay to have a different understanding, but do not impose that different understanding and belief on another individual. That is not your right. You, those who come from other lands, are living on our land because of the treaty agreements. You're also a treaty person, those who come from different lands. The sacred pipe was lifted, and for those of us who are traditionalists, that's our sacred vow, that's our sacred word, and the people back then, that's what they live by, before any attempts to colonize or assimilate into a different belief system, and they would have honored that. They would have said, we agree to live in harmony, we agree to work together, sovereign nation to sovereign nation. It didn't say we're giving you our life, we're giving you our home, we're giving to our land, that's not what they said. There needs to be something for the next generations to come, that upholds our inherent rights, that upholds our indigenous laws, that upholds our tribal laws, that upholds us as a people, and having a voice in what goes on, not just with our economic bases, but with this earth, with our land, with our water. We didn't give it up, we didn't sell it to nobody, we just had an agreement that people could reside on it, and we didn't say you own it.


Hi, my name is Nicholas Hoekstra. I work here at the Accessible Books Consortium as the capacity building focal point. I want to show you today three versions of the Marrakesh VIP Treaty and demonstrate how my computer reads them aloud. I'm opening a copy of the Marrakesh Treaty in the PDF format. I click on the document and wait for it to open and what I hear is Alert, call an empty document. Alert, call an empty document. Empty document. This means that all the information contained in this file is completely inaccessible to me. This is probably because this PDF is an image or a picture of the text which my computer cannot read. Now I'm opening a copy of the Marrakesh Treaty in Microsoft Word. As you can hear, this document is readable. Diplomatic conference to conclude a treaty to facilitate access to published works by visually impaired persons and persons with printed disabilities. My computer reads me the text, but it's important to point out that this text is not structured with a table of contents, with headings or with page numbers. Imagine that this was a 400 page textbook, something that's very common when we talk about textbooks. If I wanted to read only chapter 2, I would have to page down again and again and again and read text on each page until I locate just the page that I need. This can be very time consuming. Now I'd like to show you an accessible PDF file. Marrakesh Treaty to facilitate access to published preamble heading level 2, article 1 relation to article 2, article 3, article 4. As you can hear, this accessible PDF file is being read aloud, but it's also structured. This means that important elements such as page numbers or headings have been designed in such a way that my computer can access them. So for example, just by touching a key, I can jump from heading to heading, article 1, article 2, article 3. This means that I can quickly access the information that I need when I need it. So this document is both readable and accessible.

Welcome to All Hands Update. I'm Petty Officer Tyrell Morris. CNO released his position report November 21, reviewing the Navy's progress over the last year. The position report highlights both the achievements and areas of improvement of the U.S. Navy. CNO's three tenets, War Fighting First, Operate Forward and Be Ready were the focus of the report. One of the highlights included the development of the Optimized Fleet Response Plan, or OFRP. The OFRP provides predictability and stability for sailors, marines and their families. Rebalancing naval forces to the Asia Pacific region was a milestone with more than 41 ships and submarines in the region. A fifth amphibious ready group is scheduled to be established in the Pacific by 2018 so the Navy can continue to operate forward. Go to navy.mil to read the full report.


Keyboards are like cell phones. We change them every 2 or 3 years or sometimes longer. But unlike cell phones, they aren't as expensive and it is tempting to change them especially since some premium keyboards sell for around 4,000. When I was younger, I had an obsession with having just wireless keyboards in mice, but that all changed when the unthinkable happened. I have used a Razer Black Widow Chroma version 2 that uses green switches the past 2 years and recently upgraded to a K70 Mark II with blue switches just 4 months ago. If you haven't yet watched our review of the ASUS M3 gaming mouse and P3 mousepad, please check out the link below. Today, we are reviewing the ASUS TUF Gaming K3 Keyboard. We would like to thank ASUS for providing us a review unit, but would like to emphasize that this is not a sponsored video nor was ASUS given any say on the review process. They are watching it for the first time alongside you. We have heavily used the K3 for 2 weeks now and to save myself the trouble from fixing my cable management, I have had my Corsair K70 and the ASUS K3 plugged in at the same time during the review process to remind myself that the Corsair costs double that of the K3 at a little bit above 8,000. Now the ASUS K3 is around only 4,000. First let's talk about the design of the chosen metal finish and the overall look of the K3. The aluminum chassis is a glossy black finish which is very attractive. This is different from my K70 which has brushed aluminum. That is a fancy way of saying that you can see a paintbrush streak across the metal. While the K3 doesn't have a matte finish which I usually prefer, I can tell you right now that I am a convert to this kind of glossy look and even if you aren't into glossy you probably won't even notice it unless you have an overhead light. A slight shimmer under the light draws attention to the keyboard and it looks amazing on my desk. If only I could say the same for the heavy branding of the wrist support and the ASUS logo. I am a fan of a more minimalist desk setup and any branding especially very large ones is a major turnoff to myself. However the magnetized and low profile wrist rest is genius. It essentially connects itself without any effort whatsoever and has never moved during use. The wrist rest comes with six rubber pre-installed pads so that you don't need to worry about it scratching your desk. This is a really nice feature especially if you like taking the wrist rest off every now and then and so then you can admire more of just the keyboard. Coming from a Corsair K70 which costs double that of the K3, the wrist rest takes more effort to remove and it always gathers dust in between where it snaps in place. So I've just gotten used to leaving it on permanently. The worst part is that the Corsair wrist rest slightly covers the sleek RGB lighting at the bottom of the keys. This isn't true with respect to the ASUS K3 which makes it really nice to look at even when you are looking at your desk from afar. If you have clammy hands you may find that your hands sweat more while using the flat K3 wrist rest which doesn't offer much breathing space as opposed to the textured grip of the Corsair K70 which does. A perfect blend of both would have been my preferred choice but no such thing exists and I am against all wrist rest which use leatherette because they will pulverize in Philippine weather in a year or two. A USB 2.0 slot exists at the back of the K3 and while this is always good to have I dislike that manufacturers keep placing at the back where you need to lean forward to guess where it is. Corsair also shares this problem and it is frustrating why several generations down the line we haven't seen more manufacturers move it to the side. This is something that Razer keyboards correctly nailed several generations ago already. It makes plugging stuff in and out effortless. The lack of dedicated media keys is a bit of a downer. I have grown fond of my Corsair's volume scroll wheel and the mute button. Although you can change the volume by pressing Alt plus F10 or Alt plus F11 on every keyboard that involves more steps and while I have memorized most of the keys on a keyboard already I rarely use the F keys and so I need to look before I can execute. I'm sure I'm not the only person who hasn't memorized these. Having a volume rocker or a wheel makes a much more pleasant experience and I have found myself reaching towards my Corsair keyboard which is usually 12 inches away each time I've wanted to adjust the volume rather than go through the hassle of pressing two buttons I haven't memorized. The ASUS K3 uses Aura Sync which is controlled by two software ASUS Creator and Armory Create. ASUS Creator is optional and if you don't want to complicate your lives don't get it. Armory Create is in charge of detecting all Aura Sync compatible devices and then tells them what colors should appear and how the colors should react on each hardware. You cannot design lighting effects here. Design can be done through the ASUS Creator. After making the design you go back to Armory Create in order to implement it. Personally I don't like having to use more than one program for one job. We already have too much stuff on our computers and one more thing is just clutter. Corsair and Razer understand this thus they have one program designed to do everything. However if you are like me you'll get tired of changing your lighting effects after a couple of days and end up with just one or three favorites. Armory Create allows you to select basic effects which will appease most of your RGB fantasies. I am happy to say that it detected my K3 and M3 right away and syncing was immediate. In short if you are RGB crazed and are very particular about your lighting there is a learning curve and an extra step to the process due to having to use two programs instead of just one. Typing on the ASUS K3 is a pleasure. It comes with the options of red, brown and blue switches like this review unit. The keys are responsive and wonderfully clicky and best of all the blue switches are loud and satisfying. As a writer I spend many hours on the keyboard rewriting articles or short stories and the K3 has been a wonderful companion. Two weeks however is too soon to tell how well these keys will hold up. However it is good enough. I am no stranger to defective keyboards out of the box. When I first bought my Razer Black Widow Chroma version 2 keyboard two years ago I discovered that after three days of use the Z key was no longer working. I documented this in an article I sent to business world newspaper. While I eventually got a replacement even the replacement began to fail me only after two years of use. The M key wasn't registering thus I haven't trusted Razer ever since. Nevertheless I'm impressed with the crisp clang of the ASUS K3 and conclude that it almost feels like my Corsair K70. However at the end of the day because of the somewhat sweat proof wrist pad and the ever so slightly more satisfying click of the Corsair K70 I would prefer it over the K3. But to be honest they both feel and sound premium and the blue switches on both brands are practically the same and due to the major price difference between the two if you are looking for a good and satisfying keyboard and don't want to spend an additional 4,000 on the media keys then I highly recommend the ASUS K3.

Life is good all this month at Appalachian Wireless. Get the LG G5 for just one penny with sign up or renewal of a two year service agreement. That's almost $100 off the regular price. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless. Elkhorn City Police Department and Elkhorn City Fire Department are conducting a joint arson investigation into a string of abandoned structure fires. Elkhorn City Police Chief Bobby Sexton says they now have suspects. They've been conducting interviews and gathering information. This time we have several suspects. We're using every resource we have to put an end to the reckless disregard for human life and safety of first responders and the community's property. That we know of, one fireman was injured in one of these structure fires. You're looking at arson third, wanton endangerment, criminal mischief. We're confident that the rest of these subjects will be made in the next couple of weeks. Elkhorn City Fire Chief John Moore says they do have two suspects and the suspects are two of his own. During the course of the investigation, it's come to our attention that possibly some of our members may have had knowledge that that was going to go on. I just want the public to know that those members have been suspended pending the outcome of this investigation at this time. A lot of the reasons that a lot of them say is just boredom. I don't see that myself because believe me, we run over probably right at 200 kiles a year. I mean, we've got more than enough kiles to go around. The names of the suspects have not been released pending further investigation. If you have any information regarding arson in the Elkhorn City area, you are urged to call the Kentucky State Police Post 9 and Elkhorn City Police at the numbers listed on your screen. Callers can remain anonymous. Reporting from Elkhorn City, I'm Sean Allen for EKB News.
