Waching daily Jan 5 2018

In my first English lesson with a new student I set goals and make a plan with them.

And I mean with them, because it's something we do together.

I can't make plans for you because everyone's goals are different.

But I thought, if I tell you what I do with my students, perhaps it'll help you make

your own.

Good goals and good plans make learning English easy.

Hi, I'm Vicki, and this is a two part lesson.

This week you're going to set some goals and next week, you're going to turn them

into a plan.

Are you ready?

Hang on!

Before we start, two things about why goals matter.

First one.

There's been a lot of research about what leads to success when you're learning a

language.

Only one of these factors really matters.

Which one?

It's motivation of course.

Good goals motivate us.

And another thing.

There's so much English you could learn.

You need to focus on the right things.

Good goals do that.

If I skip making goals with my students and jump straight to a plan, I usually regret

it later.

So let's give your goals some thought.

What are they?

Do you need English for your job?

Is there an exam you want to pass?

Do you want to improve your writing or listening, or expand your vocabulary?

Do you want to feel more confident when you speak?

There are probably lots of things you want to do.

With my students, I like to start a list.

But here's the trick.

This is really important.

You need to break down your goals and get specific, so get more detailed and exact.

So what's your goal?

I want to learn English so I can feel confident when I travel.

What are you going to do when you travel?

I'll be getting on a plane, staying in a hotel, ordering food in restaurants, buying

things in shops…

Thinking about particular situations where you'll use English will help you get specific.

Another example.

I want to be able to have friendly conversations with my colleagues at work.

Great!

What do you want to talk about?

I want to tell them about my weekend, ask about their weekend, talk about last night's

game.

The Eagles lost!

If you have a big English goal, it's even more important to break it down it down.

I want to get an 8 in my IELTS exam next year.

OK, so you'll have a speaking, listening, reading and writing test.

Yes.

Speaking is the hardest for me.

Then let's start there.

What's going to happen in your speaking test?

At the start I'll have to answer questions on familiar topics.

What familiar topics?

My home, my family, my work, my interests…

So that's the key to setting goals.

Break things down and get specific.

And of course, make sure they're things you really want to do.

So what's your goal?

I want to make a great English presentation about our new product.

Why?

So I can impress my boss.

Why?

So she'll think I'm smart.

She might give me a promotion.

And why is that important?

It'll make me happy.

Yes!

Now that's a great reason.

All your goals should lead to your happiness.

It sounds obvious, but we can also be motivated by fear.

And fear can work.

What if my English is bad.

What if everyone thinks I'm stupid?

What if my boss fires me?

The problem with fear is it's usually only good for the short term.

The presentation or exam happens and you do well or badly, but then the fear stops.

To learn a lot of English you need to be motivated over a period of time.

Happiness is much more powerful than fear for that.

So set goals that will make you happy and then the next step is to turn them into a

plan, and we'll do that next week.

But first, I need to give you some homework.

If you're like my students, you have a busy life.

Making time for English isn't always easy.

Can you identify times in your days when you can fit in English?

Perhaps you can sit down for ten minutes after dinner and study.

Or maybe listen to an English podcast when you're driving?

Perhaps you can look through some vocabulary when you're having a coffee.

Or listen to English songs in the shower?

Get creative and think of new ways to integrate learning English into your life?

And if you've got no money to pay for a teacher, check out this video for ideas.

Now something to think about – your memory.

We're all human and we forget stuff if we don't review it.

You'll need to plan time for learning and also time for reviewing.

The good news is reviewing can be quick.

You can review 10 new words in just a few minutes.

And there's another thing.

Research indicates that when you're learning a language a little and often works best.

So 15 minutes a day is probably better than two and a half hours on a Sunday afternoon.

It's less time but it can be more effective.

So that's your homework.

To think about the time YOU have and what's practical for YOU.

So that's it.

In our next lesson you're going to take your goals and turn them into a plan.

An action plan that fits your life style and makes you happy.

Make sure you've subscribed to our channel so you don't miss it.

It's going to make learning English easy for you.

How to Create an At-Home Cleanse for Cheap - Duration: 2:55.

Hey, y'all it's your girl Haley.

I'm the girl behind Brewing Happiness, which is a health and happiness website dedicated to recipes for all

definitions of health. Today, I am bringing you a two day cleanse/detox

on the cheap. January is a time for sort of getting back on the health train.

There's totally a way to detox your body at home, and you don't have to spend a lot of money to do it.

So I've broken down sort of like what it means to detox and what the steps are to that and then I have a full

meal guide in the article below. Or you can sort of tailor your own detox at home

just following these few rules. So the first rule to detoxing your body is to cut out the three biggest

inflammatories for your gut and those are gluten, dairy and sugar. These are all

three like very highly processed foods that tend to

erode the lining of your stomach and that can cause a lot of

digestive issues. So cutting those three things out is your number one thing. The second detox

step is to do one of two things. Either you can cut out caffeine, but if you don't want to do that

definitely eat breakfast before you drink caffeine.

It's gonna help stabilize your blood sugar. The third step for the detox is to up your healthy fats.

That's like avocados, almonds, coconut milk

I mean there's tons of healthy fats in the world

But those are three really good ones and those are three that definitely will show up in the meal plan that I have suggested.

Upping your healthy fats really helps to

Stabilize your blood sugar and keep you full longer. This is not a diet

This is simply a meal plan to sort of help your body feel its best. Step 4 is to add in

ferments to help heal the lining of your stomach. So if you don't know what ferments, are they're just fermented food so that can be

kimchi, it could be sauerkraut or apple cider vinegar, kombucha things like that the fifth step to this detox is to up your

leafy green consumption by a ton. This will help sort of cleanse your body so you can get magnesium

you can get folate. You can get potassium

Iron all of those nutrients are gonna

get like soaked into your body especially if you're if the lining of your stomach is feeling really happy and

healthy. The recipes that I've provided have a ton of different kinds of greens in them.

So it makes it really easy to

Do that you don't have to think about it too hard.

So you can either follow my meal plan or you can sort of follow these five steps

and make a detox of your own at home that will leave you feeling so good for January.

Hopefully sort of purify all that

holiday sugar out of you. As always follow along @brewinghappiness on all social media platforms

that's where I share all of my new recipes and

Behind the scenes things so follow along there, and I will see you guys next time. Bye!

Are you on telegram already? - The Good, The Bad & The Tip - Duration: 2:58.

The Good this week is Telegram.

Are you on Telegram already?

If not, you are missing out.

The last report from their website puts their community at 100,000,000 active users.

Telegram hit the nail in the head with communications.

It combines the best parts of WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and Twitter

into the next messaging phenomenon.

The platform allows you to join chat groups about different topics and discuss with the

community in real time.

It lets you send direct messages to anyone in those groups you are part of, and finally,

it lets you find and add your friends just with their handle, no need to exchange phone

numbers or emails.

Both WhatsApp and Facebook, have a good chat system

but require exchanging phone numbers or sending a friend request

to start a conversation.

Twitter doesn't really allow for live discussions, and when a community becomes too big, you

just can't stop the trolling and the bullying.

For the Bad, let's take a shot at WhatsApp.

As revolutionary as WhatsApp has become the fact that it started as an SMS replacement

has brought complications that are hard to address.

Your WhatsApp account is associated with your phone number, not with your email or a password;

which means that if you move to a different country or change your phone number

for any reason,

you might lose all those precious conversations with your ex.

Unlike emails, phone numbers aren't 'permanent' and using them as your only login/password

for any software is not a great idea.

Now for the tip, texting at the right time.

Being interrupted by emails or chat conversations can be incredibly distracting when you are

trying to get shit done.

A good way to counter that is by doing a daily Airplane Day, where you can literally set

airplane mode on your devices to rid you of all distractions.

"get off my plane"

If you absolutely cannot work offline, you can also use a tool called Inbox Pause, which

will stop messages from landing directly in your Inbox until a certain time of the day,

while still providing your contacts with an alternative in case there's an emergency

Finally, if you just can't live without your chats, make sure you are using the right desktop apps

iMessage, WhatsApp, Facebook, and Telegram all offer desktop apps.

Nothing beats s good old full-size qwerty keyboard for fast-typing.

"To star press any key.

Where's the 'any key'?"

We'll see you next week.

results that you have gotten up till now so if you don't like those results then

don't spend much time or energy focusing on them because that's the past and the

results that you've gotten up till now is a result of your best thinking up

till this point okay but what you can do is you can change the habits that have

created this result these results in your life and it really comes down to

your habits are created by the routine that you have on a daily basis okay your

habits over the last twelve months have been created by your daily routine what

you do from the minute you wake up and tell the minute you go to bed okay and

you really have two options you can say okay I like my results I'm just gonna

keep keep going with with the habits and the daily actions that I've been taking

or you can decide that you don't like these results and to and to take action

on developing a different routine daily to start working towards getting the

results that you want okay so how do you develop a positive daily productive

routine that's they're going to change your habits well you need to start by

defining what you want what is it that you really want to accomplish what is

your end game goal okay get crystal clear on that and then you want to figure out

action plan the daily method of operation the daily habits that you are

gonna start employing that are gonna get you the results that you want over time

okay so how are you gonna figure out this plan well you're either we're gonna

hire a coach or a mentor or you're gonna figure it out but if it's if you keep

doing what you've done up until now and you're not getting the results that you

want then it's a good idea to to take a look at what those habits are and what

that daily method of operation is right because I don't know if you've heard

the same thing over and over and expect a different result okay so creating a

plan of action that is going to get you where you want to go and the third step

Azure Friday | Azure Advisor Updates - Duration: 10:14.

>> Hey, folks. I'm Scott.

It's Azure Friday. I'm here with Matt Wagner.

We're doing a little update on the Azure Advisor,

one of my favorite features in Azure.

It was in preview before, but not anymore.

>> That's correct. We released

a GA in March of this year,

and it's available to everyone.

If you're not familiar with Azure Advisor

it's a service that provides free,

personalized best practice recommendations for Azure.

And so, what it will do is look across all

of your subscriptions and resources and

identify ways that you can optimize things

like the availability, performance,

security, and even how to maximize

the return on your IT investments.

>> The features really cool because it gives

you really personalized suggestions.

Sometimes, the suggestions are almost so

good it makes me feel like there's a person there,

but it's reallyjust kind of smart artificial intelligence.

>> That's right. It's not simply

taking sort of a white paper on Azure.

It's actually looking at what you're doing in

the system and providing

guidance that's really customized to you.

>> How do I get to it inside of the portal?

>> Sure. So, Azure Advisor is available on

the left hand "Nav" of the Azure portal,

and when you come into it you'll see a dashboard here,

and this dashboard will roll up all of the advice

that Advisor has available

for you across all of your subscriptions.

And you can dive into any of these categories here.

So, I'll go ahead and dive into ''Availability'',

and this category is really about

maximizing the resiliency of your services on Azure.

And so, you'll see, for instance,

there's a recommendation here around ''Managed Discs".

So, here is where Advisor has looked and

found an availability set that you have,

but that availability set isn't using ''Managed Discs''.

And so, what that means is that while you may

have redundancy there at the compute layer,

at the storage layer you still

have a single point of failure.

So Azure Advisor will look at that and

then recommend that you migrate to ''Managed Discs''.

>> I see. And it sounds to me like, to be frank,

this isn't an up-sell what it's doing is it's

saying you intended for high availability,

and you have that at this layer but

at this layer it's not highly available,

so it's actually a warning.

>> Absolutely. And another case

that we do that in is, for instance,

people will create an availability set and they're just,

the provisioning server is really fast and

then they forget to add an additional server to it.

And we find that a lot where a lot of people have created

availability sets and they

actually don't have more than one server in it.

And so, they're really not gaining any benefit there.

>> Okay. So you're warning that that's

a high impact thing and then

there are high, medium, and low?

>> Yes. For instance,

we have one here that looks and

identifies virtual machines that you have,

where ''Virtual Machine Backup'' is not enabled.

And you can simply click on

''Enable Virtual Machine Backup''.

And this takes you to a nice UI.

Within Azure portal, that you can go and

enable backup on that virtual machine.

>> Now, this is interesting because it brings up

a couple of thoughts around about costing.

Using the Advisor is free, right?

>> That's right.

>> Getting the recommendations is free.

Just like, if I take my car and I say like I recently

had my tires looked at, one of them is bald.

Fixing the tire isn't free.

>> Absolutely. So, all of

the recommendations are available

to you free, at no cost,

but depending on what the recommendation is,

there may be additional charges if you

decide to implement that recommendation.

>> Now, some of the recommendations will

cost you money because you're adding something,

but I assume other ones can save you money.

>> Absolutely. So, that's a great pivot here.

Another category we have is our ''Cost'' category,

and this category is all

about maximizing your return on your IT budget.

So we want to identify areas that you

may be wasting money on in Azure,

so that you can take that money and reallocate them

to higher value workloads for you.

One of our most popular recommendations here is

our ''Low Usage Virtual Machine'' recommendation,

and this will identify virtual

machines that you have running in

Azure that appear to be under utilized.

And it will recommend you either shut downing or

rightsizing those virtual machines.

>> That's really so important.

I did a series on my blog a while back called,

Penny Pinching in the Cloud.

And I think sometimes people think that

the Cloud wants you to spend a whole bunch of money.

In fact, the Cloud wants you to have

as much density as possible.

And frankly, like you said here,

you're wasting or potentially you could be

saving a thousand dollars because

you have low, here we go, look.

This is so great. The Advisor is so specific.

Your average CPU is less than five percent,

why not resize it or consider shutting it down?

But even better, you have usage patterns,

so you can actually let me

look at the virtual machine and say,

''Oh, it's only used on

the weekdays, I could size it down on the weekends.''

>> That's right. And one of

the new features that we've added

recently to our Advisor is

the ability to determine just how aggressive you

want Advisor to be at identifying those virtual machines.

So, you can now go and up here

to the ''Configure Recommendation

Rule'' and this opens a new configuration window.

And then on a per subscription basis,

you can adjust what the CPU utilization threshold

should be for that.

>> That is cooler than I think people realize.

I need a moment to just absorb that.

Before, it was just a blanket recommendation.

But now, I get to decide how

your Advisor tells me about my stuff.

>> That's right. So you may say

for your particular organization,

''You know what, five percent is

just way too conservative.

I want to up that maybe to 15 percent

to identify low used

virtual machines at that threshold.''.

>> And then you'll tell me how much money I could

potentially save as an organization,

and then I could go and

take whatever actions I wanted to.

My actions could be sophisticated,

in that they maybe,

size the virtual machines smaller on weekends,

and then resize them during weekdays,

which would be kind of a sophisticated thing.

Or it could be something as simple as putting in

some model scale rules on a website.

>> Exactly. Advisor, you

don't need to follow the exact

actions that we recommend for you.

For instance, some people decide

not to resize or shut down,

but they may adjust their load balance configuration or,

like you said, put some type of schedule in around it.

>> I also noticed that there's a snooze feature.

>> Yes. So, if you do have recommendations that

you don't feel apply to you,

you can snooze them at any time.

So for instance, if I no longer want to see

''Low Usage Virtual Machine''

recommendation for this particular resource,

and come in here and ''Snooze'' it,

and I can choose to ''Snooze'' this for

a certain time period or I can

say just "Never show me this again."

>> Oh, okay. And it will never show it

for that virtual machine,

but not the rule all up.

>> Yes, that's correct. And this

is because you may have resources that

are task resources as opposed to

production resources where you

don't want that recommendation on.

And to better support that,

we also added in the configuration section the ability to

select and include which resources

you want in Azure Advisor.

So, on a subscription or resource group level,

I can come in here and identify resource groups

and subscriptions that I may not

want Advisor to produce recommendations on.

>> That's nice. That's a new feature.

>> Yes, and this is because organizations may have,

for instance, task resources where they say,

''I'm not really interested

in incurring the additional expense

around optimizing for performance or availabilities,

so don't include those in an Advisor.''

>> Yeah, that's a good point. So then

production would go and tell you about

all the best practices and you'd make sure

that you're all green.

And then in dev and test,

I don't need to do premium disks

or high availability in dev.

>> Right, exactly.

>> Very cool. I also noticed that there was a feature,

not just to download CSV's,

but I could maybe make a PDF and then send it off to

a business person that maybe doesn't want

to think about things outside of PDF world.

>> That's another one of our new features in Advisor.

All of your recommendations can be downloaded in

either a PDF or a CSV format.

The PDF format is, exactly as you mentioned,

it's perfect as a summary

for sharing within the organization.

>> So, you may have a team

of people that you're working with,

obviously, on your application,

and you may want to take

the recommendations back to them, discuss with them,

and decide whether you want to implement them or not,

rather than sort of being the one man guy in there.

Just taking it all. So, the other thing that

I think it's interesting to point out is that

these recommendations

for really sophisticated organizations

are available as a REST API.

So you've got, going to the portal,

look at CSV's, put those into Excel,

PDF's, and I could also call

and then make my own dashboard

in my own system on top of Advisor.

>> Absolutely.

Azure Advisor provides a full REST API.

You can get all of your recommendations

through that API and integrate it

with your own IT service management system, if you like.

And then all of

the new configurability that we added into

Advisor recently is also available through that REST API,

so you can fully use it that way if you want to.

>> It's really interesting, too,

because from a Dev team's perspective,

we actually get emails

internally where people are saying,

''Hey, you know you left that virtual

machine on over the weekend.

I'd really like you to go and turn that off,

and if you're not going to turn it off

we're going to turn it off for you.''

So you can really automate that as much as you want

into your IT Department and your Dev Department,

so that you can save a lot of money.

>> Absolutely.

>> I can maybe even tell people,

or I could page them or text them and say,

''Turn around, come back, and

turn that virtual machine off.''

Of course, I could automate that as well.

I noticed also in the corner here,

you've actually got the dollar

amounts that you could save up

front and center which is pretty sweet.

>> Exactly. It provides you

sort of a really high level indication of

just how much money you could potentially be saving.

>> So, this is all available now.

And as we've seen,

a lot of new features are happening all the time.

So, if people just keep using Advisor,

visiting it on a regular basis,

maybe pin it to the front of their dashboard,

and visit it on a regular basis.

>> Exactly. We're always improving

the intelligence of Advisor and adding new features.

If you come back and visit,

you always may find something new there.

>> Very cool. All right. I'm learning

all about Azure Advisor,

I'm going to run it on all of my Azure subscriptions,

and probably save some money.

You heard about it here first on Azure Friday.

The Rich Want To Keep You Dumb - Duration: 9:21.

The intellectual elite.

Intellectual elite.

Intellectual elite.

Why is intellectualism always equated with elitism?

Maybe because in a time

when facts don't matter and authority gets its strength from blind trust

knowledge isn't power it's a problem.

Maybe it's our puritanical roots, or maybe it's Frasier Crane, but Americans

don't like intellectuals. That's why in American politics, not knowing much or

appearing like you don't can be seen as a virtue. It shows that a politician is

down-to-earth, relatable, someone you could have a beer with, or five beers

with, or however many who had before you passed out and they drew a wang on

your forehead. Anti-intellectualism is what made someone from one of the most

elite families who graduated from one of the most elite universities appear to be

of the people.

Those of you who received honors awards and distinctions, I say

well done. And to the C students: you too can be President of the United States.

And then one day a war criminal!

And of course back then no one could have

imagined a more grotesque celebration of hawkish anti-intellectualism ...

until the primaries of 2016.

We won with young, we won with old, we won with highly

educated, we won with poorly educated! I love the poorly educated. We're the

smartest people, we're the most loyal people.

And that's just it.

Trump loves the poorly educated because they're loyal. Just like peasants, or

beagles or Eric.

They don't know any better!

The less educated you are the

less capacity you have to think for yourself. And the less capacity to think

for yourself, the easier it is to blindly place your trust in authority. And Trump

was right to love the poorly educated because he went on to win the election

in large part thanks to voters without a college education.

He vastly outperformed Clinton in the 50 least educated counties in the country

where people might not have minded a president who literally speaks at a

fourth-grade level.

Trump's lack of adult vocabulary or

coherence is part of the Republican brand, though, to distance themselves from

the elite classes they are indeed a part of in order to gain the trust of the

general public who they ultimately plan to f*ck over.

And it's been happening for decades.

"This is the issue of this election. Whether we believe in our

capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American Revolution and

confess that a little intellectual elite in a far distant capital can plan our

lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves."

Yeah! Don't trust anyone who knows what they're doing. Trust the guy from "Bedtime

for Bonzo," whose brilliant economic plan is just his name with "nomics" on the end.

And hear how Paul Ryan pedals the same anti intellectualism today.

"We do not believe that we should be governed by elites.

We do not believe that there are experts or elites who should steer us in their

preferred direction."

Mmm! So good to hear you support regular folks, Paul. I'm sure

the medicare-for-all iron worker Randy Bryce will appreciate your endorsement

for Wisconsin's first District.

Oh hey isn't that your district?

One way the right equates expert knowledge with elitism is by painting higher education

as the enemy.

President Obama once said he wants everybody in America to go to

college.

What a snob.

Next he'll want us all to have health

care and some of us don't want to have to wait 50 years to meet Jesus.

But it's easy for the right to demonize higher education as elitist because college

itself is so inaccessible. And instead of working to make it more accessible by

lowering tuition and alleviating student debt, right-wingers make education even

more expensive by gutting public schools in favor of expensive private ones. It's

almost as if it's in some people's political interests to keep people

poorly educated -- I just described Betsy Devo's job.

Meanwhile the GOP continues to parrot down-home working class solidarity, which

is mostly crap. For instance that lunch that Santorum was speaking at was for

Americans for Prosperity, the nonprofit group of libertarian Sith Lord

billionaires the Koch brothers, a group that regularly supports union-busting and is

vehemently against raising the minimum wage.

Mm! Feel the solidarity!

But please, go on Rick.

There are good decent men and women who go out

and work hard everyday and put their skills to tests that aren't taught by

some liberal college professor who try to indoctrinate them.

And that right there is

the second prong to the right's anti-intellectualism: painting higher

education not just as elitist, but liberal.

Many universities are becoming

bastions of liberal bias rather than institutions for higher learning.

There's a bias in favor of liberal points of view on campuses that are run by government.

It's a joke that these elite universities claim to be bastions of

academic freedom when really they're only bastions of political correctness.

Yeah. To the right, universities are bastions of political correctness

because there are lessons on the French Revolution, gender studies and consent.

So it's no wonder that after all this bashing of college, one out of three

Americans now thinks that higher education does more harm than good. Also

one in four Americans believes the sun revolves around the earth ... which probably

means two out of three Americans think college gives you skin cancer.

And it is true that adults that are more highly educated have more so-called liberal

thoughts on social issues and the environment. Things like "climate change

is real" and "universal health care will help people" and other ideological

nonsense also known as facts. But the right combats these realities taught in

universities by dismissing them all as simply overly sensitive political

correctness that discriminates against conservative viewpoints.

Take Charlie Kirk.

This twenty four-year-old runs a group called Turning Point USA that

professes so-called free speech on college campuses by say keeping a

menacing list of liberal professors on its website. Listen to Kirk justify his

campus crusade:

A university is supposed to be a place where disagreement,

the free flow of ideas happen where people can say I respect your opinion

but I respectfully disagree. Universities are no longer those places.

Timeout! Charlie Kirk never actually went to college. Why would he? He's on Fox. Time in:

They are really islands of totalitarianism, where if you disagree

with the faculty, the professors, the administration or the left-wing students

on campus, you can't respectfully disagree.

You will be silenced and you will be suppressed and you will be called a racist.

Or, Charlie, YOU will be called a racist because it turns out your

organization is pretty f*cking racist.

The thing is, Turning Point USA does

exactly what Kirk imagines liberal universities are doing: propaganda.

He admits to taking money from fossil fuel interests and then working against

fossil fuel divestment campaigns. In fact the right as a whole has had a way

bigger hand in university education than they let on. Since the 60s

right-wing think tanks and private family foundations have poured billions

into universities to promote free-market thinking. There's the Olin Foundation

which started the conservative Madison program at Princeton and has supported

right-wing ideologues from Samuel "Muslims can't do democracy" Huntington to

Dinesh "welfare is slavery" D'Souza. Or the Bradley Foundation and its support of

gutting Wisconsin's education budget. But please, please Charlie.

Tell me about liberal totalitarianism.

For decades one percenters have worked

hard to correct the liberal bias that comes with more knowledge because they

know that higher learning has been linked to beliefs in things like

democracy, equality, deductive reasoning and other stuff that makes you look at

the Republican tax plan and go ...

wait a minute....

They hate that higher education,

despite their best efforts, does not turn you into a mindless worker bee with a

malleable brain and nimble fingers with which to assemble the robots that are

eventually going to take your job assembling robots until one day you wake

up and go, "Hey! How come all the immigrants are taking my robot assembling robots jobs?!"

Now listen, call me a New York Times crossword puzzle soy kale coastal

Frasier kale elitist intellectual if you want.

All I have is a bachelor's degree, a

bunch of books I haven't read on my shelf, and my spirit animal is cardi B.

It doesn't take a genius to realize that the plan to simultaneously defund and

then de-legitimize education is a way to keep us all very dumb. To keep us

shopping on credit, blaming immigrants, and hailing the biggest anti-intellectual of them all.

So maybe: stay in school. And stay woke.

Can I still say "woke" in 2018?

Hey everyone thanks for watching Newsbroke

I'm Francesca Fiorentini, please follow me on Twitter. And let us know what you

think about this allergy to intellectualism that Americans often

have. Where does it come from? and how does it play out in your life and maybe

in college, are you in school or not? Also why is it that people who have a college

education are automatically pitted against people who don't have a college

education, shouldn't we just help everyone and actually you know raise the

minimum wage make sure that college-educated people aren't just

baristas not that there's anything wrong with being a barista.

I don't know. Let me know in the comments.

Aand thanks for watching

PART OF THE FUN CONNECTED WITH FRIENDS LIKE

TAILORS BECAUSE IT SURE YOU ALWAYS REALLY

COOL STUFF IN ADVENTURES THAT YOU HAVE NEVER

EXPERIENCED BEFORE JUST, LIKE OUR TRAVEL

ADVENTURE FOR THE WEEK.

STEVEN HEUMANN (O.S.)WELL CHAD I CAN PRETTY

MUCH COVER ALL OF THOSE BASES RIGHT NOW, FROM

UNIQUE TO SCARY. I'M STEVEN HEUMANN AND FOR

OUR TRAVEL ADVENTURE TODAY I AM DELVING DEEP

INTO THE EARTH AT ONE SOUTHERN DESTINATION

THAT WILL KEEP YOU IN THE DARK.

STEVEN HEUMANN ALONG ROUTE 66 IN THE LONELY

DESERTS OF ARIZONA, THE SURFACE LOOKS PRETTY

MUCH LIKE IT DOES FOR HUNDREDS OF MILES IN

EVERY DIRECTION, DOTTED WITH THE OCCASION ROAD

SIGN POINTING TO SOMEWHERE ELSE. THE ONLY

TRULY STRIKING FEATURE IS A HOLE IN THE EARTH

THAT OPENS TO AN UNDERGROUND WONDERLAND OF

EXPLORATION AND HISTORY: THE GRAND CANYON

CAVERNS.

SHELLY MUSSELL AT THE GRAND CANYON CAVERNS

OBVIOUSLY OUR NUMBER ONE ATTRACTION IS OUT

UNDERGROUN CAVERNS. THEY ARE 21 STORIES

BELLOW GROUND, AND MOST PEOPLE WHO COME HERE

COME TO ENJOY A TOUR. THE CAVERNS ARE DRY

CARVERNS, BUT IT'S ALSO CONSIDERED A DEAD

CAVERN, MEANING THAT THERE ARE NO BATS, BUGS,

SNAKES OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT, BUT WE HAVE

NUMEROUS THINGS TO DO FROM A HOTEL, TO AN RV

PARK AND DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES GOING ON

THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.

ZACH HEIGHT THIS IS A PRIVATELY OWNED PROPERTY

AND IN 1935 WHEN THEY FINISHED THE HOOVER DAM

THEY SENT THE LEFT-OVER SUPPLIES HERE. SO IN 1936

WALTER PECK HAD THIS SUSPENSION BRIDGE BUILT. IT

LEADS TO A STAIRCASE, TWO FIFTEEN-FOOT LADERS

AND BACK TO THE SURFACE. THAT IS THE NATURAL

ENTRANCE.

STEVEN HEUMANN WALTER PECK WAS THE ORIGINAL

OWNER OF THE CAVERNS AND WOULD BRING PEOPLE

ON TOURS FOR 25 CENTS WITH THE PROMISE OF SEEING

THE REMAINS OF CAVE MEN. WHILE THE REMAINS

WEREN'T ACTUALLY PALEOLITHIC HUNTERS, BUT

RATHER RECENT WHITE SETTLERS, OTHER SPECIMEN

PROVED MUCH MORE ANCIENT AND INCREDIBLY

INTERESTING TO SCIENTISTS. SINCE THIS IS A VERY

RARE DRY CAVE, CONDITIONS ARE PERFECT FOR

PRESERVING FOSSILS. I DECIDED TO EXPLORE ALONG

WITH MY GUIDE ZACK, AND DISCOVERED SOME VERY

INTERESTING ASPECTS OF THIS DARK WORLD.

ZACH HEIGHT ALRIGHT THIS IS BOB OUR MUMMIFIED

BOBCAT. HE FELL DOWN HERE ABOUT 1850. HE BROKE

HIS HIP AND WHILE HE WAS SCURRYING AROUND HE

STIRED UP A BUNCH OF LIMESTONE DUST AND HE

BREATHED IN THE DUST AND IT BASICALLY TURNED

HIS LUNGS TO STONE AND BOB PERISHED DOWN HERE.

BEING AS HOW THERE ARE NO BACTERIA OR

ORGANIZMS TO HELP DECOMPOSE THE BODY BOB IS

PERFECTLY MUMMIFIED. THIS FORMATION WE CALL

'SNOWBALL PALACE.' I'M SURE I DON'T HAVE TO

EXPLAIN WHY BUT I'M GOING TO ANYWAY: IT LOOKS

LIKE SNOWBALLS. KIDS ALWAYS ASK ME WHY ARE

THERE SKELETONS DOWN HERE AND I JUST TELL THEM

THESE ARE PEOPLE WE LOST DOWN HERE.

STEVEN HEUMANN AND SOME OF THE SKELETONS ARE

OLDER AND MUCH LARGER THAN OTHERS, LIKE THIS

15-FOOT TALL SLOTH WHOM THEY NAMED GERTY.

ZACH HEIGHT POOR GERTY FELL THROUGH THE

NATURAL ENTRANCE 11 TO 12 THOUSAND YEARS AGO,

FRACTURED HER BACK, AND JUST LIKE ANY OF US

TRIED TO CLIMB OUT. WHEN SHE DID THIS SHE LEFT

HER CLAW MARKS ON THE WALL FOR US TO SEE

TODAY.

STEVEN HEUMANN ALL OF THE FEATURES AND

HISTORY ARE INCREDIBLY INTERESTING. THE CAVES

ACTUALLY REACH 60 MILES, ALL THE WAY TO THE

GRAND CANYON. THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN FULLY

EXPLORED AND THE ONLY REASON THEY KNOW THEIR

EVENTUAL TERMINUS POINT IS THROUGH SMOKE

TESTS THEY RAN DECADES AGO. THE SMOKE

DISAPEARED INTO THE CAVERNS AND POPPED OUT

TWO WEEKS LATER IN THE GRAND CANYON. THEY

EVEN HAVE A SORT OF BOMB SHELTER SUPPLY ROOM

HERE WHERE PEOPLE CAN STORE SURVIVAL GEAR IN

CASE OF A NATURAL DISASTER; BUT WHAT REALLY

SETS THESE CAVERNS APPART ARE THE RATHER

UNIQUE ACCOMIDATIONS.

SHELLY MUSSELL FOR $800 A NIGHT YOU CAN STAY 250

FEET BELLOW THE SURFACE, YOU HAVE A PERSONAL

ATTENDENT AND IT SLEEPS, I'M GOING TO SAY 6 BUT

WE'VE HAD EIGHT TO TEN SLEEP DOWN THERE BEFORE.

IT'S UNLIKE ANY OTHER EXPERIENCE. IT'S

COMPLETELY QUIET, AND YOU'RE VERY

COMFORTABLE AND PEOPLE HAVE EVEN EXPERIENCED

SOME PARANORMAL ACTIVITY DOWN THERE AS WELL.

STEVEN HEUMANN SO YOU CAN EXPLORE THE CAVES,

OR SLEEP IN THEM IF YOU REALLY WANT THE FULL

EXPERIENCE. THEY ALSO HAVE A FULL RV PARK IF

YOU'D PREFER TO SLEEP ABOVE GROUND, AND OF

COURSE A HOTEL AS WELL. TOURS ARE OFFERED

DAILY AND IT'S AN EASY AND SAFE WAY TO

INTRODUCE THE KIDS TO THE INTERIORS OF THE

EARTH.

SHELLY MUSSELL I JUST THINK IT'S SOMETHING

EVERYONE SHOULD EXPERIENCE ONCE IN THEIR LIFE.

STEVEN HEUMANN (O.S.)THE GRAND CANYON

CAVERNS ARE LOCATED RIGHT ON HISTORIC ROUTE 66

ABOUT 40 MINUTES EAST OF KINGMAN. IT'S A GREAT

PLACE TO EXPLORE AND THEY ACTUALLY OFFER A LOT

OF OUTDOOR ADVENTURES BEYOND JUST THE CAVE

TOURS. YOU CAN FIND OUT MORE AT

GCCAVERNS.COM. I'M STEVEN HEUMANN. WE NEED TO

TAKE A COMMERCIAL BREAK BUT WHEN WE COME

BACK DARREN KINDER IS TAKING OUT A PERSONAL

WATERCRAFT AND ATV IN ONE! HE SHOW YOU ALL

THE DETAILS.

MUSIC UP

DARREN KINDER: Welcome back to At Your Leisure.

We're here at Premiere Performance and we are testing out

the hillside 4 x 4 because we added more toys to it.

What we put on it now is the Venom Air. What this does is it force

air into the engine which supposedly gives it better horse power

and better mileage. So right now we are testing it out to see

what it's going to do.

(Rock Music Up)

DAN WITTINGTON: the system with Darren's Jeep has to turbines

in it and to stators. Each turbine pushes against itself creating

a ram air effects if you will. Similar to what a turbocharger does.

DARREN KINDER: Now what he's doing is he's putting the engine through

it's paces, and he's recording that on his computer. So will be a

little see the horse power curve and the torque curve on the engine area.

DAN WHITTINGTON: I'm hoping to see gains of about 40 to 50 hp on it.

About 20 to 34 torque.

DARREN KINDER: You are seeing a performance gain that you are seeing

on the screen.

HEATH BESNER: Looks like we picked up in the 30 hp range and torque

throughout the curve, even more it range. It's definitely worth it,

for the low-end power you gain is most how are you get on those big hills.

DARREN KINDER: Well you can see that it definitely increased our horsepower.

And it definitely increased the torque. But now is to get up to the real

world and see what it can do. So we're going to put it on some passes here

in the mountains and see how it climbs, and were also going to check the

gas mileage so let's go check it out.

(Rock Music Up)

DARREN KINDER: We are here on parleys Canyon, were going to reset

the mileage computer and ride the hillside 4 x 4 of the past to see

what kind of gas mileage get. Then we'll come back down, reset everything,

and turned the venom air off, and test it again. So we can get an accurate

measurement of what kind of improvement on gas mileage we're going to get.

(Rock Music Up)

DARREN KINDER: The biggest difference I've noticed since we put this on is

that the Jeep shifts better. And ever since we have put the bigger tires on

his voice kind of struggle to get past the shift points. But the venom air

really adds to the horsepower and torque which allows for us to get past

the shift quicker so it's a lot smoother to drive.

DARREN KINDER: We've gone up and run pass with the been a marathon and we

got 16.7 mpg. Now we're going to turn the venom air off, run it again,

and see what kind of mileage we get this time.

(Rock Music Up)

DARREN KINDER: I'm having to push harder on the throttle, I'm having to

shift down more just to try to get to hold at seven.

DARREN KINDER: Well the mileage thing didn't make a huge difference in

what we saw But it was kind of a short pass. The biggest thing and what

we saw is that I had a lot more power climbing the past.

Didn't have to be in the throttle near as much as it seems like I need

to when I went up without the venom air on. We'll have to do some longer

test runs, maybe here to St. George, to see if it really makes a difference.

Well if would like to learn more about the venom air just go to their

website or call up Dan and he will tell you all about them.

Now we're going to be adding more parts to our hillside 4 x 4 in

the next few months, and will be doing more tests, so if you see is

out about come on over and talk to us about it! And stay tuned for

more At Your Leisure.

(Theme Music Up)

stove and y you can go to bed and be warm and wake up and be warm makes it

perfect for me.

REECE: THERE ARE A DOZEN OTHER YURTS AVAILABLE FOR RENT IN THE UTAH MOUNTAINS

INCLUDING THE BIG WATER YURT UP MILLCREEK CANYONSOME COME FULLY EQUIPPED

ELLEN: they provide sleeping bags, bring your own liners up, all cooking ware

and utensils provide as well and wood for wood burning stove for heat and

propane for propane stove for cooking.

REECE: really roughing it??

ELLEN: Really roughing it toughest camping I've had.

REECE: PRE CUT FIRE WOOD FOR KEEPING THE PLACE TOASTY

THIS YURT HAS PLENTY OF

WARM THROUGH THE LONG WINTER NIGHT. AND WHILE MANY HAVE PROPANE STOVES INSIDE,

THE GOBLIN VALLEY YURT FEATURES OUTDOOR COOKING. AND WHILE THIS YURT DOES HAVE

A NEARBY WATER SOURCE. AT OTHERS YOU MAY HAVE TO TREK TO THE NEAREST STREAM AND

BOIL YOUR WATER. YOU WILL HAVE TO BRING YOUR OWN FOOD, BUT THAT'S LIKELY THE

BEST PART OF THE OUTING YURTS MAKE A GREAT BASE CAMP FOR EXPLORONG THE UTAH

OUTBACK COUNTRY SKIS. YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE WELCOMING

ON SNOWSHOES OR CROSS

COMFORT OF THE YURT TO COME BACK TO.

McFARLAND: The yurts get most of their use in the winter. You can snowmobile in,

cross country ski, most people will snowmobile part of the way and then snow

shoe the rest.

THE LARGE, 20-FOOT YURTS HAVE BUILT IN BUNKS THAT SLEEP UP TO EIGHTSOME COME

6 Things You Need to Know About Rheumatoid Arthritis - Duration: 5:53.

6 Things You Need to Know About Rheumatoid Arthritis

1.

RA Targets the Joints

Rheumatoid arthritis is a condition that takes aim at the body's many joints, and particularly

those in the hands, knees, and feet.

According to the University of Maryland Medical Center, rarely does it target just a single

joint, though, meaning that people experiencing rheumatoid arthritis in one part of the body

often feel it in a completely different part of the body, too.

That said, not all people suffering from rheumatoid arthritis are crippled by the condition.

Those with mild rheumatoid arthritis may have occasional flare-ups of pain that can be overcome

with over-the-counter pain medications, such as Aleve.

However, those suffering from moderate or extreme versions of the condition will have

more symptoms, such as regularly feeling sick and tired or even getting fevers.

2.

Anyone Can Develop RA

Generally speaking, significant joint pain is associated with people of an advanced age—such

as individuals in their post-retirement years.

However, rheumatoid arthritis does not discriminate based on age.

In fact, anyone can suffer from the condition, even children and young adults.

That said, research from the CDC notes that rheumatoid arthritis is more prevalent in

older and middle age people.

It is also slightly more prevalent in women than men.

Nevertheless, one should not rule out the possibility that they may have rheumatoid

arthritis based on their age or gender.

If you think you may be suffering from rheumatoid arthritis, talk to your doctor as soon as

possible.

3.

RA Continues to Stump Doctors

Rheumatoid arthritis may be one of the most common conditions that continues to puzzle

physicians and other medical experts around the world.

To this day no one has clearly determined what, exactly, causes rheumatoid arthritis.

What we do know is that the condition arises when an individual's immune system begins

to attack their own body tissues, particularly those around the joints.

However, experts still don't know what causes the body to do this to itself.

That said, experts do know that there are a number of factors that influence one's

chances of developing rheumatoid arthritis.

Genetics plays an important part, meaning you may be vulnerable if someone in your family

suffers from the condition.

Doctors also believe one's environment and their hormones may also be factors.

4.

A Diagnosis is a Complex Affair

Many health conditions are relatively easy to diagnose, requiring only a sample of some

bodily fluid (such as saliva, urine, or blood).

But rheumatoid arthritis is not one of those conditions: in fact, it can be downright difficult

to diagnose, and may require several long visits to a few different types of specialists.

According to the Mayo Clinic there's no single test that can positively identify rheumatoid

arthritis in an individual.

Another problem is that the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis are similar to those seen with other

types of joint disease.

On top of that, the complete symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis can take a long time to develop—perhaps

even a few years.

That's why doctors look at a variety of factors—from medical history to genes to

physical exam and x-rays—in order to make a rheumatoid arthritis diagnosis.

5.

There are Many Ways to Treat RA

There is no single way to treat rheumatoid arthritis.

Like many other painful health conditions, there are several approaches to alleviating

pain, reducing swelling around the joints, and helping patients lead normal lives.

The first step is to educate the patient on the disease through self-management programs

and support groups.

Next steps include showing the patient how various physical exercises can help to strengthen

the muscles around the joints and help to reduce inflammation and pain.

Doctors may also prescribe anti-inflammatory medications designed to reduce pain and help

individuals gain an upper hand on the disease.

6.

Diet and Exercise Can Help

Those who are diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis will be encouraged to watch their weight,

to exercise regularly, and to follow a healthy diet.

That's because being in good shape can help reduce the amount of weight being placed on

the joints, thereby limiting inflammation and the pain that comes with rheumatoid arthritis.

That means exercise is a critical part of treating the disease, according to studies

from the National Institutes of Health.

However, that doesn't mean one should engage in intense exercise routines—such as interval

training or running—all the time.

Moderate exercise, such as cycling or going for a walk can also be very helpful.

Before starting your own training regime designed to help alleviate the symptoms associated

with rheumatoid arthritis, be sure to consult your doctor.
