Waching daily Apr 30 2018

Back in 2007 we thought about...

Let us create a new game for InnoGames and do something which is

different from our first game, Tribal Wars.

In The West, we wanted to have

we wanted to have an RPG but with a lot of multiplayer features in it, like the cities and

you can see players on the map.

And we liked watching Western movies, so one

of the ideas was then, let us create a game

in the Wild West setting.

I had no experience at all, with the genre Western

The West actually introduced me to the genre.

Ten years ago!

Oh my God that is so long ago, I barely remember!

That time, at InnoGames, there were not that many employees.

We were like a handful of people.

I remember that I translated The West to the Polish version,

which was also a huge challenge for me.

I learned about

that there is a huge diversity of weapons and

the vocabulary was new.

I had to google and also learn a lot about the Wild West.

The very first thing I did on The West was of course checking what the

what praying in the church means,

but I signed the NDA, so I am not allowed to discuss it.

When we launched the game, the player reactions were very strong, so more and more players

joined, and gave us also very good feedback, and then it was becoming clear for us:

Yes, The West will be a successful game.

The initial version was quite limited, we had a quest system,

we had of course the world map, and the city building elements

But we have added a lot of different features over time.

One of the biggest and nicest things I still remember was when we had the first

International Fort Battle Championship.

Magda originally did that on her Polish version

and then later pitched that to become an international thing.

When I started with the Polish community, I wanted them to be more active,

then I started with the events

like the Fort Battle Polish Championship

And after all I saw that our players really like it

and then I asked the Lead Community Manager

to create something like this

like this for everyone.

And yeah, we ran that, and it was quite successful, and we even had players stream it on Twitch.tv

and back then, in 2016, we even had up to 300 concurrent viewers,

which is quite the achievement for a browser game on Twitch.

We also introduced a wide range of belts and pants, so our cowgirls and cowboys would never

have a sore butt after riding their horses again.

One of the main things we worked on during my time on The West,

were internal tools for ourselves, to allow us to more easily create

questlines and items and bring high quality content to you, guys.

On the Admin Tools we always needed logs of the player like what the player was doing,

what actions they were performing.

So then later, when they had

you know, complaints about the items missing or something like that

we could easily track it down if they really did all the actions required

or if they missed one step somewhere on the road.

That was one part that was very important.

Another part that was super important for The West, because it is quest heavy:

we really needed the Quest Tool, wherein we had a great overview of what quests were available,

or what requirements are there for certain quests.

Before, we deployed The West worlds together with the developers

and as there were some transitional period then,

and we had a little bit less developing time and developers here,

we decided okay, lets not deploy the worlds all manually,

but we then wrote a full automation for it

and made it also possible to deploy a world in let's say, one to two minutes

and prepare everything for the players, so we were now faster and more agile than before.

So once, we did a cooperation with one of the most popular German soap operas.

It is called "Gute Zeiten, schlechte Zeiten".

And we invited three of the main actresses to play a role in The West,

and we did a whole questline out of that.

So what we did was they dressed up as cowgirls in The West clothes, we put them in front

of our saloon in the game on a big screen, and they were acting and talking

a story that we then used in the game as a questline.

And unfortunately, we were only allowed to use the videos

in the German version of The West, but they were there.

The international events server is one of the biggest things

I did with our other Community Managers.

And in this server we will have more events like Duel Championships,

where players around the world can face with each other against other players.

The most interesting game feature I worked on was the early design of the city hall

That was the point where I really for myself realized that The West is

I do not know, like travelling in time almost, because we ditched the old looking tables

and it was cool and shiny and new and it really felt like you know,

it was being transported into the modern age.

The most important milestone being the release of West 2.0 in 2012,

with its beautiful handcrafted full screen map.

In The West, the map is the basis of the whole game

You do your jobs on the map, you have quest givers on the map

All the players are on the map, the towns the forest, everything is on the map.

And we thought that base feature has to be perfect in the game.

So we said, let's not only increase the performance of the map, but also the visual style of it.

It has to be beautiful!

And we had two options on how we could do that.

One was, okay, we create new graphics for it,

we write some system that randomly puts them on the map

or patterns that repeat on the map,

or we build a map editor, and put together a map by hand.

And we figured out that was a lot of effort, but we wanted to go for the best solution.

So we hired I think ten people:

players, colleagues, friends, we built a map editor, we built a lot of new elements: rocks,

mountains, clouds, rivers, trees, everything you see on the map.

And every single element you see is actually put on the map by hand.

And it worked out in the end.

The map is still as we built it back then, and I have not seen anything like that in

any other browser game.

I know that in The West, praying is always a bit of a sensitive topic

and people always want to know what praying does, and I am actually still one of the people

who wants to know what praying does, because I have no idea.

The best thing about working on The West was the team actually!

Together as a team we achieved a lot.

For example, we created a brand new event like the Pumpkin Hunt.

And the ideas came from the loveliest team in the world.

We were like a virtual family and this was just awesome.

In 2016, we created the team calendar that nobody outside of the in-house team has ever seen

and I actually brought it.

And everybody had to take a picture.

So, in this example you can see Steffi our Game Designer at the time, and yeah, everybody

had to do pictures and like team pictures with everybody, and we printed it and gave

it to every team member and former team members and yeah

I still have it hanging on my wall, and

I am waiting for 2023, when it becomes valid again.

It was really cool to see just how many of the Community Managers are also hard-core

The West players, and how deep they are into the game, and how deep their game-knowledge goes.

It was really cool to see the combination of Community Manager and a hard-core player

in the same person.

One of the cooler projects we did during my time on The West was a community event.

We did quest-line contests so people could actually suggest their own questlines.

The biggest achievement I had together with the whole The West team during my seven years

on the project, was being close to the community.

So from when I started as a Volunteer on the game, until when I was a Product Manager,

important was always that all the information from the community reaches the whole team

and the other way around.

So whatever we planned to do goes back to the community.

The influence of the community to the game The West was very strong.

One of the first features we added, directly after launch was adding an overview

of the world map, because otherwise it was very hard for the players to see where they are in the world.

This was one of the player wishes.

I think that on The West, the community is the biggest driver, especially now.

We have a lot of...

even when I was on the project in 2016, we had a lot

of ideas coming from players,

and it is a role playing game, so you can go in any direction

you want with your character, you can make a story for your character.

We had people who did that really, really nicely.

The community has a huge influence.

I think we all, the complete team read the forums, they asked players about

direct feedback about the game.

And we always tried to build this game together with the community.

And if you look at The West now with a smaller team, it is still super important to be in

close contact with the community.

And all the Community Managers have additional jobs, they work on quality assurance,

they create content for the game and all that is only possible because we are in such close

contact to the players and because of our history working with the players.

We have a very committed community,

not only in Poland, but around the world.

What we do in Poland is, we invite our players to join our annual meeting in August

and we get regular visits from our The West players, who really enjoy sharing their passion.

One of the main factors why so many players loved this game over years

was the multiplayer part.

You really can get some real friendships through The West.

And in the end, I think its not the game, it is more the community which keeps this

game alive for such a long time

and the friendships in the game, and not that they want to compete against each other today.

It's more, they want to play with somebody and want to chat and want to

communicate with other players.

And I think for that, The West is a great platform.

Hey! Come closer, I am sharing with you now the best kept secret of The West.

What does praying actually do?

So, when you pray...

Wow, ten years, that is a long time!

Thanks so much for sticking around!

The West is not just a game, it is an adventure.

Thank you to all of you!

You, and every single one of you, made The West successful!

I want to say thank you to our community for playing this game.

I would like to thank the players.

Thank you to all the players for the love and support for The West over the last ten years, and I

wish you a lot of fun for the coming ones!

You are playing The West for ten years now, and this is amazing.

All I can say is, keep on playing!

You helped us to develop the game, you give us ideas, you inspire us.

Thank you and all the best for the next ten years!

Thank you to all of you who played The West, who still play the West.

I hope you keep on playing because it is a very nice game.

Ten years is a really long time, and it is very special for a game to reach that stage.

It is your passion and interest in The West that has kept it going for so long, and will

keep it going for many years to come.

Do not forget to check the forum and find a little surprise!

I'm proud that we built a game that you enjoyed for so many years

That you give us regular feedback, which allows us to continuously improve the game.

We are really committed to give you new content, new features in the game,

and run The West for many many years to come!

What are the Qualifications for House Cleaning? - Duration: 6:14.

What are the qualifications you need to start a house cleaning business?

We're going to talk about that today.

Hi, there.

I'm Angela Brown and this is Ask a House Cleaner.

This is a show where you get to ask a house cleaning question

and I get to help you find an answer.

Now, today's show is brought to us by MyCleaningConnection.com

which is a resource hub for all the things

you need in order to start a small house cleaning business.

Now, there's also a bunch of other cool stuff on there like products and books and fun stuff

and gifts that you can buy for the house cleaner that comes and services your home.

There's some really cool stuff so MyCleaningConnection.com

Now, today's question comes from a house cleaner who has this question.

Hi, Angela. This is Joyce Hollenbach

I want to start my own cleaning business, but I was told that I have to have a license

and that I have to have two years' experience and two years insurance to start a business.

Is that true?

Angela Brown: Now, if we're talking about the qualifications of starting a house cleaning

business, you can't start a house cleaning business if you already have two years'

experience because you've already started.

If you already have two years of insurance, you can't start a house cleaning business

with no insurance if you already have two years of insurance.

The crazy thing is this.

It's like saying you can't come to college unless you have a college degree.

You have to start somewhere.

I don't think I understand all of this question in is it true?

My answer is, no, it's not true but it's true for whoever it is you're talking to.

My guess is that maybe you went to let's say a builder and you said, "I would like to offer

my services as a house cleaner."

They're saying, "These are our qualifications."

Now, for that person, whoever it is you're talking to, yes, those are their qualifications.

Those are not the qualifications for getting started in a house cleaning business because

you don't start a house cleaning business with two years of house cleaning experience

and two years of insurance and all these other things.

You start by starting. Right?

If you're going to a house and a customer has asked you this, you're simply not a good fit.

You don't have the qualifications they are looking for.

Are these true qualifications?

They are true for whomever you're talking to.

If it's a corporate account or if it's a commercial account or if it's a building account or if

it's a realtor, these are the requirements they need.

Then you're not a good fit for them because you don't have those qualifications.

But in order for you to go start a residential cleaning service, yeah, you want to be insured

and you want to be bonded and you want to have a business license if that is required

in your area.

Now, usually it's just one person.

You don't need a business license because what are you licensing?

If you have a storefront and people are going to be coming to your location, yeah, you have

all different kinds of permits that you need and a license is one of those.

That would be required.

There are some insurance companies that want you to have a business license before they

give you insurance because they want to prove that you're a business.

Well, if that's the case, you can go down to the county courthouse and you can register

your business name and you can buy a business license and that just says I have a business

in this area and I'm going to pay taxes.

Then every year they will send you a little statement that says, "Show us the property

that you have," and then you make a list of the things that you've purchased that year

for your business.

It's not hard to do.

It's very easy to do.

All you need is to get started.

Now, if you run into a situation where someone is asking for your qualifications, what they're

telling you is I'm uncomfortable with whatever this sales pitch is.

I'm not sure you're going to be able to do a good job for me.

That's what they're telling you and so you need to come right back in with confidence

and with your satisfaction guarantee.

I am so confident in my work that I'm going to give you 100% satisfaction guarantee.

As a beginning house cleaner, if I'm not able to deliver this service that I promised to

you, there is no charge whatsoever.

No questions asked, money back guarantee.

I will give you your money back.

With that kind of confidence, you better be prepared to give the money back because if

you're just starting your business and you're just learning, you're probably going to screw

some things up.

But it's better to get some practice and to learn the ropes than have no business at all.

If somebody said, "These are the qualifications," and you're like, "I don't have those."

Then you just turn around and walk away.

You don't have a business at all.

Right?

You just got scared by your first no.

Don't be scared by your first no.

Figure out a way around that.

By figuring out a way around that, you have to hit it from every different angle.

Can I practice on your building?

Your building is messy anyway.

What if I come in and I clean it and I show you what I can do?

At the end of my cleaning, if you're not satisfied, there's no charge.

At the end of my cleaning, if you're absolutely delighted with what I've done,

here is my fee.

You come in from a different angle.

You say, "I don't have those qualifications.

I don't have two years' experience.

I'm just starting and I'm so dedicated to pay for the food for my family that I'm willing

to do whatever it takes even if it means I give your money back."

Now, we've all been there.

We're all small business owners.

We've all started from somewhere and so there's not a person on the planet that's going to

look at you and say, "I don't want you to feed your family."

It's not going to happen.

They're going to say, "Well, all right.

I'll give you a chance."

If they absolutely have firm rules because they've had bad experiences, you've got to

come with that from a different angle.

Hey, I understand you've probably had bad experiences in the past, so what I'm going

to do is this.

Then you come back in and you renegotiate the terms, but it comes down to your level

of confidence and it comes down to your level of skill.

If you don't have the skills, don't overpromise.

If you don't have the skills, it doesn't matter if you have license.

It doesn't matter if you have insurance.

It doesn't matter if you have two years' experience.

If you don't have the skills, you don't have the goods to back up the job so leave and

go get some training and then come back when you can deliver what you're promising.

All right.

That's my two cents for today.

Until we meet again.

Leave the world a cleaner place than when you found it.

subscribing so you can stay up to date with all the latest videos but otherwise let's

get straight to today's video which is part 6 of the F ree Tinder Opening Line Course.

Cheers.

Okay you have made it to the final lesson of this course.

How to message a girl on Tinder with blank or boring profile.

And look we've all been in this situation where you do come across a profile and either

she has barely any photos and maybe just one thing written in her bio and you scratch your

head about what the hell to say to her.

The biggest issues how the hell do you personalize your opener to this woman with barely anything

in her profile.

Well to be honest what I just described above...

It's easy if we've been paying attention throughout this course we would surely be able to find

something within one of these limited profiles to help you personalize your opening line

whether it's the fact that they only have their job listed or there is enough happening

in one or two photos that you can find something that's relatable to a specific you know to

find a specific opening line I should say.

Using any of the previous techniques that we've spoken about.

To be honest the real challenge would be messaging a profile that is completely blank.

Let's seriously imagine number one, no bio at all.

Number two, one photo close up of their face with nothing obvious to comment on.

And number three no job, no interests, nothing listed on their profile whatsoever.

Now there are other videos on YouTube that have thousands of views that talk about messaging

girls with blank profiles but then they go on to talk about how they will message girls

about their height or photos or bio.

Now we already know how to do that.

If you've been paying attention.

A completely blank profile is the true test.

So let's get straight into it.

Now look I like to break things down with this one into two categories random and personalized.

Now I know what you're thinking this profiles blank, we've said it before, it can't be personalized.

Just hold your horses.

We're getting to that in a second, but first let's talk about this random approach.

Within the random approach, it is best to stick to two different opening techniques

that we've already explored GIPHS and questions.

Earlier when speaking about GIPHS.

I mentioned that it's good to have a bit of a search around, find ones that relate to

you and store them in your back pocket.

Well this is one of those times that you could pull it out.

If you haven't done this yet I strongly suggest that you go jump on after this video.

When you are searching within the GIPHS I would suggest either searching keywords that

are completely random or even keywords that relate to you.

Now I'm not ashamed of it at all but I absolutely love the WWE/WWF whatever you want to call

it or whatever you remember it as.

So I tried to search all types of keywords relating to it and this is the one I've found.

The key is to keep things pretty lighthearted, a little tongue in cheek and well funny.

These GIPHS maybe even accompanied by a hello and their name can be a good way to start

when they really aren't giving you anything to work with, as it is a nice way to really

show your funny side without seeming forced or unoriginal.

Now the next option of the random opener is a question.

So you can go two ways about the question.

It can be normal or it can be a little bit weird.

I'll explain what I mean by weird soon but for normal these are broad questions that

you're pretty confident would generally get a response as they're pretty simple.

Generally they will have one of two possible answers.

For example a 'would you rather' or What do you prefer between x and y.

Or they might just be really broad like What's your favourite band.

Now an example of this: if she is pretty similar in age, grew up in the nineties you could

even talk about some old-school stuff for example,

You could ask something like Nickelodeon or the Disney Channel?

Or something like Mulan or Emperor's New Groove?

You know you could ask just pretty random questions, but something that's somewhat relevant.

Chances are that's going to get a better response than just a boring old Hello.

Now let's get into talking about random questions.

It is pretty much what you imagine.

Basically you're asking your match something random as hell in a completely casual way.

This is to get somewhat of a shock out of your match as your openers would be completely

different to any others and therefore allow you to stand out.

So let's think of an example.

I was thinking of one earlier, do you think Medusa's legs are covered in tiny little snakes?

That's the most random thing I think I've ever said in my life.

It's not not that funny, whatever but yeah it's just a bit of a shock.

It's super out there.

And yes your match could maybe think you're a weirdo but that would only happen so seldomly

compared to how often you would get ignored if you just went with something boring.

Now most women receive boring openers on the regular, but a profile with absolutely nothing

to work with would get even worse openers.

So it would either be a physical compliment or 'hey what's up' that should normally be

getting.

So when all she is getting is those boring generic or creepy lines your opener up will

have way more impact and allow you to make a better first impression than the rest.

Now let's get into talking about personalised for a blank profile.

Yes I know a lot of you have been wondering how the hell do you personalize a Tinder message

to someone with literally nothing to work with.

Some people think it's impossible but I am here to tell you that they are certainly wrong.

The key of personalization is that your match knows that you have looked at her profile

and come up with your opener based on looking at it.

That you don't send the exact same message, copy and paste it, to every single girl.

So what can our feature be that we talk about for a profile that's blank and empty...

The fact that it's blank and empty.

What I mean by that nice and simply, is basically making reference to the fact that her profile

is blank and empty.

Now look you definitely don't want to sound like a dickhead that's calling her out for

having a blank and boring profile.

So you want to make sure that before you send that message off you read it over and sort

of judge if it does or doesn't.

Now look before we get to the good stuff.

Another option when it does come to attempting to personalize your message is using a name

right now.

The one thing without fail that will always be there on her profile is her name.

Yes, it is somewhat personalised but in the spirit of being different it isn't exactly

our best shot but it is still much better than just saying hey.

If she has a very obvious name pun name probably stay away from it because she would definitely

have heard it before.

But if you want to go ahead and do this search her name followed by 'name pun' in Google

and if there's some recent hits that come up and you do find a name pun that you think

super original and funny then go for it.

It's not ideal but it is still light years better than 80 percent of what she is usually

getting.

Now a GIPH is probably the easiest and best to go with to be honest.

You could find a GIPH of an abandoned town or something empty to sort of illustrate that

you've noticed her profile is blank.

Again, she will hopefully make that connection and see that you are trying to make an effort

to her specifically.

Let's take a look at some examples and see what I can find.

Here we are on giphy.com we're going to search for some potential GIPHS that we can use for

a blank profile.

Remember the fact that it's a blank profile, that's our feature.

So what sort of words could we use?

Like I said earlier let's see...

Abandoned...

Let's just go that word.

OK so Abandoned, come on let's see what loads up here.

I'm pretty sure that's from that show 'Are you afraid of the dark?'

I used to love that.

You could go this.

Oh it's gone.

But you saw there it was just like a big empty space.

And just one guy sort of you know searching around like oh where is everyone?

O k so abandoned maybe not the right word because we're talking about I abandoned ships

and stuff like that.

But the word I was sort of thinking there is you know I was thinking along the lines

of like an abandoned town and just nothing's there and it's completely empty and barren.

That's actually a good word, let's search barren.

Not that much came up.

So let's go ahead and search some other keywords so let's try wasteland.

Could even go to like 'post apocalypse' like there's so many different things that you

could do.

It's more about getting a visual picture in your mind and even going from there constantly

searching keywords until you find something similar to what you're thinking or just completely

left field and different to what you're thinking as long as it's funny and relevant.

All right so you've got the wasteland loading up here you'll see that the Internet is extremely,

extremely slow.

Okay cool.

So you could go something like this from the Simpsons you know a barren wasteland.

Something like this, whatever it is.

Now that's personalizing a message because you're acknowledging the fact that her profile

was empty so you could include something like this from the Simpsons and then add something

like 'this is me searching a profile for this is me searching your profile for something

witty to come up with' something like that.

You know again it's not comic genius but you are being relevant.

And guess what.

A blank completely empty profile, you are personalizing it.

Simple as that.

Massive step above than basically anyone that this girl has come across before.

Simple.

I'm proud of you man.

Good work.

You made it to the very end of the video.

If you did make it to the end and you are sitting here watching right now do me a favor

and write down in the comments #BADASS.

So I know that you got someone that takes it seriously.

And if you did like what you saw today just remember guys this is really just a small

piece of the puzzle, all the very important parts that do come before this, they are going

to be spoken about in great detail over in the free tinder opening course for 2018.

So if you are someone that takes it seriously, if you are someone that had a taste and you

want to learn even more, you see the benefit in this, guys get over to Dude-Hack.com/FREE.

There we can see the full course start finish completely free.

Guys, I hope you enjoyed today's video, I can't wait to connect with you on the next.

What You Need to Know When Trying for a Baby - Episode 2 - Duration: 6:10.

Hello and welcome to

So You Want To Have A Baby.

I'm Jenifer Karai and I'll be your host

as we run through everything you need to know

for a happy and successful pregnancy.

In the previous episode

we spoke about the first steps to motherhood and

all the things you need to have in place

to be emotionally prepared for a stress free pregnancy.

If you've missed it, here's your chance to catch up

You can find the video linked in the comments below.

Today we're going understand

the science behind the monthly cycle and ovulation, and

why it's so critical

to grasp the importance of knowing

when you're ovulating to maximise

your chances of getting pregnant.

Now, if the timing's right, and

you're ready to take that all important next step

what are the most vital things you need to know?

Is it as simple as just having a lot more sex?

Lets turn to our gynaecologist Dr. Bella Palnitkar,

and have her run through the monthly cycle

and why it's so important to understand yours.

The key to the whole process of getting pregnant

is related to your monthly cycle.

It isn't just about sperm meet egg,

there is a lot more to it than that

and the better you understand your monthly cycle

the better your chances of getting pregnant.

Most women think their period cycle is only

on the 4-5 days that they have their period,

but actually an entire cycle begins

on the first day of your period and ends a day before

your next period begins.

If today is the 1st of April and i get my period,

this is the first day of my period.

I know that I got my last period on the 4th of March.

To calculate your menstrual cycle

count the number of days from the first day of your period

to the first day of your last period

and so the average length of my monthly cycle is 28 days.

But if you're not sure about your average length

or if your cycle is irregular

take the average of your last three cycles.

Ovulation which is when

a woman's ovaries release an egg,

happens about two weeks before the next expected period

and lasts for around 24 hours,

but potentially makes you fertile for around 5 days

which is ideally the best time for the couple

to be having sex in order to conceive.

So it's important to know when you are ovulating.

Well,

sounds like Ovulation is the key to getting pregnant,

but how do we figure out when these magic days occur?

We did some research

and found a few options to consider.

A lot of people are using ovulation apps,

where you feed in the exact dates of your monthly cycle

and the app then calculates the dates you are ovulating,

based on what you've entered.

But those aren't extremely accurate,

because we often get our period late,

or maybe even a few days early, in which case

the dates calculated by the app could be wrong,

and you're right back where you started.

So we asked Dr. Bella if there's a better way.

If you want to know for sure that you're ovulating,

you should use an Ovulation Test Kit.

This is an at-home test

which gives you the exact time during your menstrual cycle

where getting pregnant is most likely to happen

because it predicts when an egg release

is about to take place.

It does this by detecting

a rise in luteinizing hormone (LH) in the urine,

so it's actually responding to your body

and not making any determinations

based on anything else.

This would be the ideal time

to have unprotected sex

if you're trying to conceive.

You can pick up ovulation kits at your local chemist.

They are the most accurate method of

checking your ovulation cycle.

We use the iKnow Ovulation Kit

because it's a simple urine-based test

which can be done in the comfort of your home

and it detects those 5 days of the month

where a woman's chances of conceiving are the highest

with a 99% accuracy.

This is how iKnow helps with that baby making magic.

We'll dive into more details about

the monthly cycle and ovulation in our next video.

I'm Jenifer, thanks for watching

and if you have any questions about any of the things

we discussed in this video

please let us know in the comments below,

we'll try and answer as many as we can.

We'll see you next time with Episode 3 of

So You Want To Have A Baby.

Until then thanks for watching and stay Glamrs.

On the next episode of

So You Want to Have a Baby,

we have a quick facts and myths session coming up to

bust all those misconceptions and establish nothing

but the facts!

See you then!

Johann Carl Friedrich Gauß: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know | SML TV - Duration: 10:45.

Johann Carl Friedrich Gauß: 5 Fast Facts You Need to Know

GoogleJohann Carl Friedrich Gauss is being celebrated with a Google Doodle.

Johann Carl Friedrich Gauß is being celebrated with a Google Doodle on what would have been his 241st birthday.

The German mathematician, also known as Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss and Carl Friedrich Gauss, made significant contributions to several fields, including number theory, algebra, statistics, analysis, differential geometry, geodesy, geophysics, mechanics, electrostatics, magnetic fields, astronomy, matrix theory and optics.

He has been called "the foremost of mathematicians" "and the greatest mathematician since antiquity.".

Here's what you need to know about Johann Carl Friedrich Gauß:.

Gauss Was Born to Poor, Working-Class Parents & Was a Child Prodigy Who Figured Out His Own Date of Birth, Because His Mother Never Recorded It.

Johann Carl Friedrich Gauss was born in 1777 to poor, working class parents in Brunswick in the Duchy of Duchy of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, in what is now part of Lower Saxony, Germany.

Gauss' mother was illiterate and did not record his actual date of birth, but he later solved the puzzle of when he was born himself, and determined it was April 30, Bruce Director wrote in The American Almanac in an article titled, "Mind Over Mathematics: How Gauss Determined The Date of His Birth.".

Director wrote, "Gauss's mother could not remember the date of her first son's birth.

All that she could remember, was that it was a Wednesday, eight days before Ascension Day, which occurs 40 days after Easter Sunday.

This was not necessarily an unusual circumstance in those days, as most parents were preoccupied with keeping their infant children alive.

Once the struggle for life was secured, the actual date of birth might have gone unrecorded.

Twenty-two years later, the mother's lapse of memory provoked the son to employ the principles of higher arithmetic, to measure astronomical phenomena, with a discovery grounded in the principle that the cognitive powers of the human mind are congruent with the ordering principles of the physical universe.

In 1799, Gauss determined the exact date of his birth to be April 30, 1777, by developing a method for calculating the date of Easter Sunday, for any year, past, present or future." You can read more about that method here.

Gauss was a child prodigy, according to Britannica.

The encyclopedia explains, "he was rare among mathematicians in that he was a calculating prodigy, and he retained the ability to do elaborate calculations in his head most of his life." He also had a gift for languages.

His grandson, Charles Henry Gauss, wrote in a letter to a Colorado College professor in 1898, "Had Grandfather given his life to the study of Languages he doubtless would have made a name for himself.

… I believe it is somewhat unusual for a person of great ability in one direction to have more than ordinary ability in other ways.

Grandfather was a notable exception to this.

In early life he debated whether to study Philology or Mathematics and he is known for his discoveries in natural science, including electricity and astronomy almost as well as for his solution of problems in pure mathematics.

It may not be so well known that he also had decided ability in Finance.

he kept all of his business accounts with the most scrupulous exactness, and altho born in poverty he was able to accumulate quite a fortune for one in his position.

My Father said that Grandfather would have made a most successful Minister of Finance had he been called to such a place by his Government.".

His Mathematical Skills Attracted the Attention of the Duke of Brunswick, Who Helped Him Attend the Collegium Carolinum & the University of Göttingen, Where He Made His First Discoveries.

When Gauss was young, his mathematical skills and ability as a student attracted the attention of Charles William Ferdinand, the Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, who funded his education, according to the University of St.

Andrews.

He began studying at the Brunswick Collegium Carolinum in 1792, where he discovered, the "Bode's law, the binomial theorem and the arithmetic- geometric mean, as well as the law of quadratic reciprocity and the prime number theorem," according to his biography on the St.

Andrew's website.

Gauss then moved on to Gottingen University in 1795.

He completed his degree in 1799.

According to Britannica, his first two major publications came in the early 1800s:.

Gauss's recognition as a truly remarkable talent, though, resulted from two major publications in 1801.

Foremost was his publication of the first systematic textbook on algebraic number theory, Disquisitiones Arithmeticae.

This book begins with the first account of modular arithmetic, gives a thorough account of the solutions of quadratic polynomials in two variables in integers, and ends with the theory of factorization mentioned above.

This choice of topics and its natural generalizations set the agenda in number theory for much of the 19th century, and Gauss's continuing interest in the subject spurred much research, especially in German universities.

The second publication was his rediscovery of the asteroid Ceres.

Its original discovery, by the Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi in 1800, had caused a sensation, but it vanished behind the Sun before enough observations could be taken to calculate its orbit with sufficient accuracy to know where it would reappear.

Many astronomers competed for the honour of finding it again, but Gauss won.

His success rested on a novel method for dealing with errors in observations, today called the method of least squares.

Thereafter Gauss worked for many years as an astronomer and published a major work on the computation of orbits—the numerical side of such work was much less onerous for him than for most people.

As an intensely loyal subject of the duke of Brunswick and, after 1807 when he returned to Göttingen as an astronomer, of the duke of Hanover, Gauss felt that the work was socially valuable.

According to Britannica, Gauss also surveyed the territory of Hanover, invented "the heliotrope (an instrument that reflects the Sun's rays in a focused beam that can be observed from several miles away," published works on number theory, the mathematical theory of map construction, and many other subjects.

In the 1830s he became interested in terrestrial magnetism and participated in the first worldwide survey of the Earth's magnetic field (to measure it, he invented the magnetometer).

With his Göttingen colleague, the physicist Wilhelm Weber, he made the first electric telegraph.".

Gauss Was a Perfectionist & Did Not Publish Many of His Discoveries Because He Did Not Think They Were Complete & Above Criticism.

Gauss was known to be a perfectionist and a hard worker, according to Musings on Math.

"If there is to be one major criticism of Gauss, it is with his reluctance to publish his discoveries.

Gauss, ever the perfectionist, did not like to publish many of the results of his research, fearing that they were never perfect enough.

Or, as Gauss would describe it later in life, "pauca sed matura" (few, but ripe)," Musings on Maths writes.

I Was Really Looking For Someone Who Had Passion, And Wanted To Be A Mentor - Duration: 11:24.

My name is Valerie Moore.

I'm from Atlanta, Georgia.

I had already hired two, hired and fired, two mentors prior to Joe.

I knew I needed a mentor.

And I was looking for someone that I felt that was passionate about the business and

that would give me some of that one-on-one time.

Because what I found that most people do when you hire them, you get CD's, videos, and

things like that.

But, and the one, I had given this person $2,000 that I was supposed to, you know, on

a monthly basis, within two months, and I'd gotten less than an hour's time.

The person never had any time to speak with me.

So I was really looking for someone who ad the passion and really wanted to be a mentor

that wasn't providing me nothing but just fluff.

And so after following, I had been following Joe already prior to hiring these other people,

and they made me believe that hey, you need to find someone that's in your local area.

The one that was in my local area was the one that wasn't even given me an hour – for

$2,000.

So as I had been following Joe, I felt that he had the passion, he was providing information

– even though it was just on YouTube.

And I had also been receiving Joe's letters.

And I loved the way, the passion and the time that he put into it.

And so that's how I found Joe.

Just by following him on the internet.

I started with Joe just a month ago.

Just about a month ago, and that was after, like I said, two other mentors that just didn't

have time for me.

I went to a seminar in Atlanta, and after going to the seminar, I left there really

pumped up, you know, I can do this thing.

And I, this guy, who was a postman, and he had had issues with his property, myself being

in the loss mitigation side of the business, I had tried to help him because he wanted

to save his property.

And, but he didn't have money to pay anyone to help him with that.

So I told him hey, stop past the office, you know, we can sit down, and, you know, I'll

call the lender for you to see if what we could do to help you save the property.

He never took me up on that because he said he didn't have time.

Then when speaking to him later on, when delivering the mail later on throughout the weeks, he

said that his brother had, you know, brought the mortgage current for him.

So that had been six months, like, prior to the seminar.

But I thought about him then, after the seminar, and I went to him.

And I, you know, I spoke with him, said, "Hey, what's going on with the property?

How's everything going?"

And he said, "Oh, I moved out of that three weeks ago."

I'm like, "Really?

I would like to see the property."

So, long story short, I end up doing what I now know was a subject to.

I took over the mortgage, negotiated a second mortgage, that sort of thing, but I did it

wrong.

I had invested money in this property, not only to bring it current, but the property

needed some extensive work and I'd thrown a lot of money into it.

And then the insurance became due.

I couldn't get insurance because of the way I did the deal, was I did under a quit

claim deed.

That's not the right way to do it.

I found out later it wasn't.

Because I have really, I have somewhat a limit ownership of it, but then I knew enough about

this because of being in the mortgage side of the business, I knew about the "due on

sale" clause.

And I was really concerned about it so I would not record the deed because I didn't want

the lender to come back and say, "Hey, you owe me this money right now because you're

an alien.

I don't know who you are," that type of thing.

So, I didn't record the deed.

But by not recording the deed, I knew it left me open for liens to be put on the property.

I couldn't get insurance on it, so I had to keep my relationship with the owner of

that property which made my focus go from putting that money into the property to continue

to fix it up to, I can't do anything to protect my interest, I need to pay this bad

boy off.

Because I'm steady worrying every night about liens being put on the property, you

know, if this guy, what if he files bankruptcy, you know, I can't get insurance without

him.

I couldn't do anything without him because the lender didn't know I existed.

So, again, that's when I went back to look for a mentor.

I needed to know how to do this deal right.

It had a first lien of $25,000, it has second lien of $13,000 some odd dollars.

I negotiated the deal with the lender on the second, which was Chase, and I got it for

$2,400 and the first mortgage I just paid off a month ago.

So I own the house free and clear now.

My goal as a real estate investor is to leave like, a legacy for my family.

I want to first and foremost, I love real estate and I want to make a difference to

other people.

I want to help, truly help people because I work in the foreclosure defense side of

the business right now and I know that a lot of people that I speak with, they're in

this situation because of the recession.

And I would like to provide those people with a second chance, while, you know, making money

myself.

I see where my knowledge, when it comes to the knowledge and love for real estate could

be a benefit to a lot of people.

So I want to do it all.

I want to learn the strategies, I want to you know, have that, I want it well rounded.

Because I feel that that's the only way that you can really be that benefit that I'm

talking about to those homeowners and first and foremost I believe exactly what Joe believes.

And that's the reason I decided to go with Joe even after losing thousands of dollars

prior to him, was because he, I feel that has some of the same values that I have and

it's about integrity first.

You focus on the person and the money will come.

And I see that in Joe.

I believe that the impact that it's had on my life and family is the fact that it's

not about you.

It's really not about you.

You are, I believe that we are for a reason.

And that is to connect and help other people.

It's not about you.

And when you look at it like that, and you go in in that particular way, it's just

amazing how that grows your business.

Because when you talk about connecting with that person and integrity, it's unfortunate

in the world we are today, it puts you above everybody else.

So that's, you know, that's the impact it has had on my life and my, I mean, even

down from my daughter to my grandson, because my daughter was not interested in this at

all until she started to see what was happening, you know, and see how this truly is about

helping other people.

Because you know, we don't want to get into the religion thing, but, I have to always

think about what does one need?

Food, clothing and shelter.

And you want to be part of, you know, the solution and not part of the problem.

So it has opened that door for us to make sure, you know, that where we can provide

a service, you know, with integrity, and that's what it's all about.

I am not full time and God knows I pray every night that I can quit my job and do this full

time.

Because like I said, first and foremost, it's my passion.

And I don't feel that you should do anything that's not your passion.

Because I make real good money right now but I hate, literally hate my job.

I love real estate, and like I said, I see all the benefits in it but foremost it's

not about me.

It's – the way that you could say this particular job and make it benefit to so many

other people who deserves it.

You know, and so, I'm looking, I just can't wait until I'm able to go full time.

I'm working on the automation side of it.

I have bought the Automarketer and do I see the benefit of it.

However, I'm still learning it.

I always believe you need to educate yourself first.

You know, have some type of idea about what you want to get into.

So, educate yourself first because you don't know what you don't know until you do something,

you know, to educate yourself.

Because a lot of us, like myself, for instance, like, the example that I gave earlier.

I didn't know what I didn't know.

So I hopped out there and did something that kept me up at night.

So, I will say do your research.

Do your due diligence.

We have, most of us have access to the internet now.

And so even if you don't have it at home, go to the library or something like that.

Educate yourself so you can realize what, in a sense what you don't know.

Because it will allow you to know that.

It will let you know that hey, I need some help.

It's not about you.

That's the best message I can put out there.

It's not about you and if you don't have a passion for the business it's not the

business for you.

That's what I'd say.

I mean, I think you do not go out there, don't treat anybody like, you don't want to be

treated.

Don't, I mean, be up front and as honest as you possibly can because I don't feel

that we have enough people in this business being honest, don't be selling people fluff.

When you go to that person please provide honest information to whomever it is that

you're working with or doing business for.

Because you don't want to be part of the problem.

We've got enough of that.

You want to be part of the solution.
