My names Kendrick Chavez and I am
19years old. I'm the creator of Empower Workouts
Which is a fitness program that's led by
teenagers. I had this idea when I was 13yrs old
and I wanted to get in shape for this
pool party that was coming up at my school.
It was big deal a bunch of girls were going
to be there and I want to get in shape
realize that I'm not the only one
there's a bunch of kids my age that had no clue either
1 out of ever 3 kids and teens are considered obese
in the united states
thats a scary statistic and that
passion to change it led me not only to transform
my own life but the hopefully help other
people just like that's what I had this
vision. let's get the most inspiring
teenagers together create something
motivating, workout led by teenagers and
that's what we ended up doing a
motivating and inspiring young
individuals and I really really believe
that we're going to end childhood
obesity

Strandels - Chance Of Rain (Acoustic) - Duration: 3:00.
We can burn as broken stars We can rise up from the ashes
I am ready when you are Bring it on steady
Now I know you've come too far To forget you had a reason
I'll remind you who you are Help you see clearly
Bring it on steady

Better to dry again Than stay inside just 'cause we're too afraid
Hiding until better days Let's go wash our pain away
If there's a chance of rain You still have sun upon your face
On a road as black as ice Going fast with no direction
You've been reckless now it's time To bring it on steady
Don't you sleepwalk through your life Don't you move without conviction
Won't go out without a fight Let me open up your eyes
Bring it on steady
If there's a chance of rain Then we should all just go out anyway
Better to dry again Than stay inside just 'cause we're too afraid
Hiding until better days Let's go wash our pain away
If there's a chance of rain You still have sun upon your face
Bring it on steady
Take it and run
If there's a chance of rain Then we should all just go out anyway
Take it and run
Better to dry again Than stay inside just 'cause we're too afraid
Take it and run, you'll be fine before you know it Take it and run, you'll be safe before the storm comes
If there's a chance of rain You still have sun upon your face

More2Explore What you need to know HD - Duration: 2:04.
So here's the scoop on what you need to know today.
First thing is your agenda.
You can look up your agenda on your smart phone by going to more2explore.asu.edu and
logging in with your log-in information.
That should give you a pretty good overview of what you have going on for the day.
When you get off the shuttles, we're going to be escorting you over to check-in.
Check-in is really important because not only are you going to get some cool ASU swag, but
you'll get a map, and some coupons to use throughout the day.
So the most important sessions for you to attend today are going to be your academic
and your admissions sessions.
So please make sure that you make it to one of those throughout the day.
Other than that, it's completely up to you as to what you want your day to be.
So everyone always has questions about lunch.
You are more than welcome to stay here on campus.
There's some coupons that you will get at check-in, and you can eat in the Memorial
Union or in one of are all you can eat facilities, or you can go on College Avenue Commons, or
even over on Mill Ave. and kind of check out what's around campus.
Throughout the day to today feel free to go and stop by the student services building.
There will be people there at a concierge desk helping you to get from point "A" to
point "B" or answer any questions you have.
We also get questions about check-out.
There is no official check-out for the event, so all you will need to do is just go back
to where the shuttle dropped you off and hop back on and go right back to your parking
spot.
When you get back on the shuttle, don't forget to pick up a survey and let us know how we
are doing.
We always want to make our visit experience the best that it can be.
If you have questions throughout the day, don't hesitate to stop by anyone in a blue
More2Explore shirt, or that's wearing one of blue buttons.
Finally, the most important thing that you need to know for today is to have fun.
This event is all about you and what's important for you to see here on campus today.
So I can't wait to see you all on campus in just a few minutes.

Let's play Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep - This game tricks me 😅 - Duration: 28:27.
Do we fight against Aqua now? With Aqua?
Yo, what's up guys and welcome back to Kingdom Hearts 0.2
So last time we stopped when a Mirror pulled Aqua in it.
well. and some mirrors flew away. And now we will see the backround of this.
mhh, ok let's first take the map.
ok I can't jump in this area.
Alright, I saw in the trailer that I can slide on blizzaga.
let's try this.
so what's the shortcut of blizzaga? oh well.
it's always good the the tv is smaller then the screen.
oh ok.
she is doing that automatically.
ok what happened now?
oh so we just entered the mirror?
but that's not in the recent world, right?
this seems like the world of aurora.
oh man these guys are even tankyer.
oh there's an item.
yay another potion. Oh I even got 1.
uhm.. Aqua just said that.
probably left or something like that. Oh wait, the roof up there is destroyed.
oh well. not in ranged.
oh well that could have worked.
you can make the game longer like this.
Tell me, couldn't she just climb out of that easily?
bruh, somewhere has to be an exit.
ok I will jump at the top, right?
argh almost.
ok let's try that one again.
nope that doesn't work. you will get pushed down every time.
could have been worked.
do we have it already? (yup almost)
do we fight against Aqua now?
with Aqua? This also was in a trailer.
oh shit she can teleport!
man. that's a mangy fight.
you can even roll fast enough anymore.
I think I've just blocked it.
oh ok I can defeat her like this.
man she is owning me.
I'm dead!
man..
man..
seriously that's a mangy fight.
oh right infront of me.
oh wow.
man this is so confusing.
alright ok.
this should work now. alright.
oh she will do this ice things again.
I knew it.
oh that's not good.
YES I GOT HER!
the poor mirror!
oh there's another one.
let me gues, I have to climb the leader again.
no?
let me gues.
I knew it. I FUCKIN KNEW IT!
alright, ok then. so I can enter that mirror again?
oh I get to this place again. I probably..
I either should open no chest or one has a certain color. I'll try to open nothing (one has light on it..)
and I end up here again anyways. gg.
no matter how I .. oh wait, this chest is closed. that means.. ok.
the technique suqidward.
ok before I continue playing I have to fix my screen, seriously.
alright I made it (but my editor is still shit xD)
that's something. I even made the visuals better.
well.
alright, I can save there (x2) and heal.
ok than I would go this way.
that was too late.. but they are dead anyways.
wrong button hahaha
alright, ok uhm..
well Idk.
will it send me back again?
nope, the mirror is destroyed now.
or it'll send me to the mirror automatically.
ok I will save there real quick. maybe..
nope, this mirror is destroyed as well.
and what should we do there?
mhhh I would use thundaga.
oh shit haha. How I just knew it.
blizzaga*
oh it survived.
alright ok.
is this the last one? nope, obviously not.
oh perfect now I can use thundaga.
oh that was blizzaga. well that's even better
let's just head on.
ok we weren't in there. does this mirror have something to tell me?
Nope it doesn't. Hope it's not just like snow white's part.. uhm I mean auroras part, where you just had to runn through.
well let's see.
that remebers me alot on unchained key.
that you can walk in the middle but have to jump about the sides.
well.
ok before I enter this mirror let's see if I have left something in here.
DON'T FUCKING FALL!
ok I see.
huh? what was that?
a green crystal.
oh I won't make it up there.
mhh maybe I am missing a crystal. did I miss one down there?
Indeed one is here.
ok.
there? nope.
how am I doing that the best now? alright.
nope I won't reach it.
so he returned it now or what?
well maybe it's in another position now.
ok I'll go on top of this.
nope that won't work as well.
well how excactly should this work?
oh, not good. (rip aqua)
did I die now?
nope, I will just be teleported up here again. wow.
ok let's remove this one for now.
nope this will just vanish. the other one won't change.
no...
man this game tryes to trick me.
well, gues I will end this part right here.
I hope you've enjoyed and hope to see you again soon.

Controlling fan speed with mosfet and Arduino - Duration: 8:26.
I think this room needs a little air flow
so I salvaged a ventilator out of an old computer
it's a cpu ventilator
let's cut those wires and hook it up
so we have some blank wires and...
a power supply
big, heavy thing
ok. I lied to you. it's not so big
and when I connect it...
the little sucker runs
it's loud
and it's much air flow
we could control the air flow with resistors
nice idea
or we plug the ventilator only a short period
on
off
on
off
on
off
onoffonoffonoffffffoffffo
hmmm
there must be a practical way
lucky me, I've some Arduinos lying around here
but this one can only output 5V at max
and the vent needs 12 volts
well, that is what transistors are for
this is a N-channel MosFet. it's one kind of transistor
transistors are like electrical switches
it has an input and an output
and something... let's call it a trigger
where you can set it on and off
you don't know how it works?
well, I didn't know it either
so I had to look it up
the transistor is like a pipe
we have a source
the source is where the water - or the energy - flows in
and we have a drain
*drain*
*source*
where the water comes out
now, it's nothing more then a wire
current comes in, current goes out
but..
we have a third part
the gate
it's really like a gate
the gate is like a wall
it prevents the current from flowing
sooo
it's like water, that stops right here at the gate
you can open the gate..
..by connecting it to positive
and the current flows
and it won't stop flowing
unless...
you connect the gate to ground
then it closes again
and the watter, or the current, stops flowing
that's it
this mosfet is the...
IRF530N
on the outer left
is the gate
in the middle we have the drain
and the source is on the right
yeah, it looks a bit complicated, but just follow me
we connect the positive of the battery to the positive of the ventilator
we connect the negative of the battery to the source of the mosfet
then we connect the drain of the mosfet to the negative of the ventilator
only we have left is this gate
we can open this gate by connecting it to the positive
hoohuu! and it starts spinning
although it is not connected to the positive anymore
it doesn't stop to spin
but if you connect it to the common ground..
it stops
the gate is closed
see how easy it is?
on
off
on
off
well the mosfet doesn't need the 12V for the gate
it only needs 0.7V
and our Arduino can handle this
the only thing we change here...
.. is that we connect the gate..
.. to one of the PWM ports of an Arduino
it's one of those with these wavy lines
and we need a common ground
don't worry! no 12V will go through the ground line. it's perfectly save
Well.. does it look like the blink sketch?
probably
we define our gate pin. pin 10
set it to output in the setup
and disable the fan to initialize
in the loop we wait for one second
open the gate by pulling it high
wait one second
and closing the gate
and all starts over again
uploading it and here it goes
one second on - one second off
quite annoying this noise
weeejuuuweeejuuuweeejuuu
but there is a better way
so here comes a slight change
so since it's a PWM port...
..we not only can turn it on and off..
..but give it a specific value of how long it is turned on and off
if you want to know more..
.. look for tutorials about PWM
so we start by writing an analog value of 300
wait 5 seconds..
and write a value of 1000
and wait 5 seconds more
let's see how this works out
as you can see, it rotates quite slowly and then goes faster
5 seconds slow
and 5 seconds fast
where can we go from here?
for example can you add buttons
and by pressing the buttons you can increase or decrease the speed of the fan
or you can add a temperature sensor and adjust the speed of the fan by the incomming temperature values
Only your imagination is the border of what you can do with it

Dynamic Discs Enforcer | Should You Flick This Disc? - Duration: 1:15.
(synth music)
- So sidearming the Enforcer.
This is an incredible side arm disk.
Very, very overstable and in an earlier video
I mentioned the Defender being a really good overstable
distance driver for a side arm.
The Enforcer, if you have a lot of arm speed,
this is the disk you club up to.
This disk you can really throw
with almost no worries about it flipping over
and goes a long ways.
Very very consistent flyer, very overstable,
and it's actually functions as a utility disk as well
with that overstability.
So with those two throws, very similar
to my last video with the Defender.
They, I threw one as hard as I could,
got over on it and worked that full flight.
Never ever thought it was going to keep
rolling and keep turning.
I knew the disk was going to come out
very smoothly and work for me.
On the second one I tried to work a more
a flat release and allow the disk to carry straight
with that still overstable finish
to leave me in the fairway.

How to Design a Responsive Website - Duration: 0:54.
As you may have noticed, there are some dashes within the builder.
You will want to make sure you are keeping all of your content within these boundaries.
This way, the website will be best suited for most screen size resolutions.
It's always a good idea to make your website nice and easy to read!
When dragging elements around, you may see a purple line.
This line will show you that it is lining up with another element, or with boundaries
I just showed you.
This is called 'Snapping' It ensures that everything stays lined up.
If you'd like to disable snapping you can click the three lines in the right hand corner.
Click on snapping settings, and uncheck the 'Enable Snapping' box

How Video Games Saved The United States - Duration: 3:22.
Hello All.
For decades we've been told that violent video games are going to turn our children
into monsters.
In fact it's done the complete opposite.
It seems obvious to me that Video Games have made our children more peaceful, and they've
made our country dramatically safer.
Video Games save lives.
Nobody really knows why crime is falling across the United States.
Is it policing?
Dramatically different strategies across thousands of police departments seem to be yielding
the same results, so it's not just policing.
I'm pretty sure that Chicago's horrifically bad policing has a lot to do with why it's
an outlier.
But Chicago is an outlier, Crime is falling almost everywhere else.
No one factor created this happy situation.
The whole, "we don't have lead in the gasoline anymore" explanation is kind of interesting.
Some say legalized abortion has cut down on angry unwanted children.
But there is one variable that should get more credit, and may be the most important
variable of all.
That factor is video games.
Almost all crime is committed by young men.
It used to be that young men spent the majority of their free time out in the streets socializing.
In the 1970's through the 1990's a perfect storm of drugs and the breakdown of traditional
authority structures led to a true epidemic of crime.
Drugs haven't gone anywhere.
Traditional authority and family structures aren't coming back.
But from the 1990s to today there has been an unbroken trend of falling crime.
Even the largely justified loss in trust for policing we've seen over the past couple years
hasn't yielded lasting spikes in crime outside of a few places.
So what happened?
Video games are the latest craze to sweep the country and most of the world too.
Millions of people are addicted to hours of gazing at electronic images on game screens
in arcades, and in their own homes...
Starting in the 1980's and at an ever accelerating pace since then, video games have gotten exponentially
more interesting, time consuming and local.
In the 1980's you went to a public arcade to play the best games.
Since the 1990s it's all been home based systems of one kind or another.
The young men that commit crime now spend more and more of their time plugged into the
world of gaming, shooting people in virtual reality rather than actual reality.
In broader society this anti-social trend is something to be lamented.
But I think it may also be why crime just keeps falling.
So maybe that's what Chicago needs.
Anybody want to fund a Playstations for Gangbangers program?
Thanks for watching.
Please subscribe.
You should also sign up for my e-mail list.
I'm going to be putting out a lot of interesting non-YouTube stuff over the next couple months,
and the email list is the best way to hear about it.
I never send more than three e-mails a month.
Thanks.

2017 Keystone Fellows - Call for Applications - Duration: 1:48.
[Drum roll]
[Inspiring music begins]
(Pat Shorter) The Keystone Experience is a full circle.
It''s something that gets you slightly involved with the Explorer Guide,
like I did, and then takes you through every little step
to where you can really understand who you are and where you fit in at Virginia Tech.
(Veronica Demarest) The Keystone Experience...it's new, it's developing, and it's so much fun.
You have the opportunity to be engaged with more than you thought possible.
(Seyi Olusina) It's not so structured, it's not a class.
You don't have to earn a certain amount of credits, but the time you put into it,
and the effort you put into it-you're going to get everything back from that.
(Meghan McLoughlin) The Keystone Experience teaches you how to take what's uniquely yours,
grow that, and give back to the community.
(Pat Shorter) It's not just focusing on the Aspirations, it's focusing on who you are as a person
and why you individually are important to this community.
(Maddie Mitcham) And when you appreciate what you can do in understanding yourself,
you can then go impact the university.
(Seyi Olusina) ...at the end of four years you can say,
"Wow! I learned so much about myself," and "this is who I am at the core,"
"this is what I believe about myself and what I believe in life."
You learn so much about your principles and what you value.
(Veronica Demarest) It's open to everyone
and I think that's what's so beautiful about the Keystone Experience-it's never too late.
It's never to late to get on that path and make yourself a better person.

#FeministLitFeb TBR [CC] - Duration: 3:51.
Hey guys, it's Kirsti. Welcome back to my
channel. Today, I want to present you with
my TBR for Feminist Lit February. For those
of you don't know, Feminist Lit February is being
hosted by Jane from It's Jane Lindsey, and
the whole all idea is that during the month
of February, you read books that feature
feminist characters, that were written by
feminists, etcetera. Obviously the minute I
found out about this, I was like "Uh, yes please!"
So here's what I'm planning on reading
for the five challenges. Challenge number one: read
a book with a fiercely feminist
protagonist. For this one, I'm actually
planning on doing a reread, and that is
Jane Steele by Lyndsay Faye. You guys know
how much I love this book. But when I
read it for the first time last year, I did
so on my flight from Melbourne to LA
and then I think LA to Chicago I finished
it off? Anyway, I wasn't necessarily at
100% of my faculties to
truly appreciate the writing and the
characterisation and all that kind of stuff.
I know that I loved it, I know that I was
sucked into the story, I know that I was
100% on sold on how much of a badass
Jane Steele is, and I loved every single
reason behind why she murders the people
that she murders. But I really want to
reread this book so that I can
appreciate the writing and the parallels
between Jane Steele and Jane Eyre so much
more. So that's why I have gone with this
one. If you're looking for suggestions
for books to read for this particular
challenge, I can highly highly recommend
Beauty Queens by Libba Bray, which is an
incredibly feminist and also incredibly
intersectional book. And I also really
really REALLY want to recommend the
Spinster Club trilogy by Holly Bourne, in
particular the third book. All three of
these books are incredibly feminist but
the third book, What's a Girl Gotta Do?,
is the most feminist thing I think I
have ever read and it was glorious.
Challenge number 2 is to read a work of
feminist nonfiction. And for this one, I am
planning on picking up We Should All Be
Feminists by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie.
I love Adichie's writing, it is absolutely
beautiful and frankly I can't believe
that I haven't read this before. I know
it's a teeny teeny tiny little book because
it's the transcription of a TED Talk that
she did, but I'm super super excited to
read this because I've heard amazing
things about it. Challenge number three is to
read a diverse book, preferably Own Voices.
For this one, I'm planning on picking up
Fourth World by Lyssa Chiavari. This is a
sci-fi book that is set on Mars, and
basically involves time travel and
archaeology and stuff like that. So the
plot sounds amazing, but it's also a book
with a person of colour protagonist and an
asexual protagonist, and the author
identifies as being on the ace spectrum,
so I'm sold. Challenge number 4 is to read a
book by an author who identifies as
female, non-binary or genderfluid. And for
this one, I'm going with Dreadnought by
April Daniels. This has basically just
been released and it's a young adult novel
that features superheroes, but the
superhero in question is transgender, and
the author is also trans, so Own Voices again.
I'm really really excited to read this
one, I've heard amazing things about it.
And challenge number 5: ask a feminist for
a book recommendation and read that book.
So I asked my best friend Katherine for a
recommendation and she suggested that I
pick up Bad Feminist by Roxane Gay, so,
like, obviously I'm doing that.
Obviously this is not my full TBR for
February, I'm planning on reading a bunch
of other stuff as well. It may not all be
feminist - February's also Black History Month.
I desperately want to pick up The
Hate U Give by Angie Thomas, although
it doesn't come out I think until the 27th
and I don't know if it's being released
in Australia on the same day as it is in
the US. So I might not get to that one in
February, but I really really want to. I also
really want to read Beloved by Toni
Morrison and Kindred by Octavia E. Butler.
So between FeministLitFeb and Black
History Month, I am not going to be
reading any books by white men during
the month of February. If you guys are
participating in FeministLitFeb, let me
know down in the comments, and don't
forget to use the hashtag #FeministLitFeb
on, like, any and all social media
platforms. Also, if you're reading
anything for Black History Month, let me
know down in the comments because I'm
always on the lookout for more
suggestions.
Thank you guys so much for watching, I
love all your faces and I'll see you on Friday.
Bye, guys.
