And I call them decorative elements because basically all they're meant to do is to enrich and color the page.


So they don't really have much of a symbolic meaning other than maybe life is richer, life is beautiful, but they've become so beautifully stylized and so you find them in different illuminative being rendered in very different ways.


Now this is very, this is actually an insert of a kind of an envelope for stationary, and this is a very Italian design.


This is all the you know, take off on the idea of the acanthus leaf.


It's almost has a feathery like posture to it.


And so, it's used in architecture as a decorative element in architecture on columns and so on, and it's also used a great deal in illumination.


And so what's happened with the idea of acanthus leaf, is that it has is taken on all these different creative looks.


And it has been wildly colored so you can look at some an acanthus leaf and you can start with the idea of a black and white drawing.


Here, actually, I have some samples of traced acanthus leaves from different illuminated manuscripts.


Are you always focused on the positive aspects of your physical self instead of the negative?


Low self esteem tends to bring us down and there's a set of thoughts or cognitions that tend to go with low self esteem.


Such as I am unlove, unlovable and no one will like me.


By doing cognitive therapy and working on those thoughts, we can help our clients to feel better about themselves by gaining a more accurate appraisal of themselves, their situation and their environment.


It's really important to notice if you have low self esteem because then you can do something about it.


This is Dr. Art Bowler and this has been how to tell if you have low self esteem.


And I'm a psychologist in Manhattan, New York City, where I have my own private practice.


In this clip I'm going to talk about how to tell if you have low self esteem.


Low self esteem or a low feeling about oneself is unfortunately very common.


When one has low self esteem, the way you can tell is look in the mirror.


Do you see the positive parts of your personality or do you notice the negative?


In the side position, we're going to be palming and thumbing the sen lines on the legs.


Now make sure your client is comfortable in the side position, supporting your head, knee supported, arms are resting in front comfortably.


I lift it up enough to make sure that I'm comfortable.


Always make sure you get a little thumbing in there too.


So we're going to start again on this one.


Place the thumb, place the thumb, just on the side of leg, and just kind of, you'll feel that you'll feel a little groove in there so you're not pressing up on any bones.


And just thumb up and pressing in the thumb in the area where, my fingerprint would be not on the tips of that stabbing her with my fingernails.


Coming in here and again, nice rocking back and forth, back and forth.


Not applying too much thumb pressure, to not only save your own thumbs but to not kind of over press on your client.


So starting with palming on sen lines with this leg.


Always giving a little bit of Meta, a little loving kindness as you finish.


On the front leg you're going to be doing the outside.


And on the inside leg closest to you, you're going to be doing the inside.


So we're going to start with the inside leg first.


Placing the palm, placing the palm and then start in a nice rocking fashion.


And you can do this as long or as short as the massage requires, time wise or your client's needs.


Coming to the other one, and again, just in a nice rocking position.


If you like to find more about my services you can visit my website canineheadstart.com.


So that is one option. Another option is if you know your dog has fleas there is something called cap star and this is a product that is oral product.


It works right away and it will actually kill all of the fleas that are on the dog for the next 24 hours and it start working in about 30 minutes.


So if you taken your dog to a place or a friends house or to a training school and you believe that there are fleas there and your dog may have gotten fleas this is a great product to use when you are about to leave before you bring your dog to your home.


Again this is a oral preventive and this is also a oral preventive.


We are going to be talking about external flea prevention in the next video.


So we are going to be talking about flea prevention in this short video clip.


There are a number of products out there that you can use on your dog obviously one way to prevent fleas is not have you dog go out side but that is not really realistic.


So we are going to be talking about products that you can use to prevent fleas.


In the last of couple of years there has been a increase of different types of options out there that you can use.


I'm just going to talk about three of the ones that are most commonly used and seems to be more effective.


So there is something called sentinel and this is a monthly tablet and sentinel actually prevents not only fleas but heart worm as well and the come individually wrap packages.


The dogs typically like to eat them they are flavored so they chew them right up and what this does is it prevents the production of cottin so if a flea jumps on your dog bites your dog and ingest the blood meal then the blood meal would have the chemical ingredients of the sentinel when they lay there eggs they would not be able to produce cottin.


cottion is the excess scalp of a flea so it doesn't kill the fleas but it prevents them from infesting or reproducing in your home.


Some of the days that are the hardest are when, you know, I start out first thing in the morning and things just, like I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, or...or whatever, you know, type of phrase you want to use.


But things just don't go right from the very beginning.


I have lots of clients that want cleaning done Thursdays and Fridays, because they want it done right before the weekend.


I've got three very big jobs, three very big houses that have, you know, three and four bathrooms, and, just large houses...so, that makes for a really long day.


And, I had one of those days where I just woke up and things just didn't want to go my way.


So I...I continued to fight through it, fight through it...didn't feel real great.


So, got in the car, got to the first job, everything went, you know, okay....I was good, but I was still a little bit late.


So, got to the next job, and, you know, moving right along, and I go out to get some cleaning supplies out of my car, and it's locked.


And I go to get my keys out of my little supply box, and they weren't in there, so, I, you know, look around for my keys, and, sure enough, they are locked in my car and I have no extras.


I have none at home, I have no extras, cause I have an extra key in my car, and I have my remote in my car.


You get a late start, you, you know, get to the house and it's an extra big mess, and, you know, you just....one thing after the other just leads to a tough day of...of a long tough day working.


So, I, you know, I had to just fight through the cleaning, and had to have a lock-smith come out and open my doors, and I had to go to another job.


So, you know, sometimes when things just don't go your way...you know, you just have a rough day, and you go to bed that night and you hopefully wake up the next morning and.. and it's all better.


Generally, I...I will schedule two to three houses a day, and if I get a late start then, you know, of course, that just delays the next job, and then the next job, and then it can be seven or eight at night when I get home.


And one thing that I like...I try not to do is to interfere with my client's family time as well. So, when I get a late start, and maybe I have a horrendous house that I had to clean and...and wasn't planning on it, then my day gets later and I start to intrude into their family time.


And...and that makes it tough for me, I don't...I don't like to do that at all. So that's probably the hardest part, is, if I don't start my day right.


So, I kind of have to mentally prepare myself for my day, so, that's probably the hardest day for me, is not preparing myself.


Hello welcome my name is Julio Nutt and I am a master instructor of the Jim McLean Golf School in Miami, Florida.


In this clip I am going to talk about a great drill that is really going to help you to shift your weight forward.


In golf you have got to learn to shift your weight forward in order to hit the ball and transfer your weight into your left side.


But many amateurs when hitting the ball they hang to the right side, they get their arms really close and tight to their bodies and they have a lot of difficulty transferring their weight into their left side.


Just using a shaft would be a great drill to use because when we're throwing something forward we're throwing a Frisbee, if we're throwing a ball the natural motion is to throw the weight with it.


So right now I'm not going to think about hitting the golf ball, I'm going to think about throwing the shaft.


So I'm going to get in my golf position and as I swing I am going to let the shot go as hard as I can and that is really going to help me develop the habit of throwing my weight.


That is a great tip that I give to a lot of my students.


When hitting the ball think about throwing the club and that is going to generate extension and weight transfer.


This is Julio Nutt at the Jim McLean Golf School.


Today I'm going to take you back into time and I'm going to show you one of my grandmother's favorite things to make the kids and that was sweet bruschetta.


This recipe what my grandmother use to do this and I hope you enjoy it, I hope you make it, it's really fun and fast.


I'll show you the ingredients, utensils it's literally 15 minutes and it's done.


Sweet bruschetta is just the mixing of different things chopped up and baked in the oven.


But today we're going to show you one for the kids and especially the big kids like me.


You're going to use a whole bunch of things like bananas is the main thing.


When you put in beneath that flame, it glazes and just comes out spectacular.


I'm going to show you all the ingredients of this recipe.


This is at least 60, 70s years old I think.


I'm left-handed but I played sports with right, so I do squeegee with the right hand.


And so, that's squeegeeing the second color.


Alright, now that I've plopped my white paint, I'm going to pick up my favorite tool again.


And I'm just going to come in here and just kinda fill it out.


And now, when you mix the red and white in big areas, if it's too much red and you don't move it fast enough, you'll start to get pink so I want to try and keep the integrity of the white and I'm just going to move that fast, and see how--I don't know if you can see it, but since the paint has kind of dried quickly on this paint on the wood, it's already created a texture underneath of it.


So, now, I'm getting this texture of the paint underneath of it.


So, I'm just going to come in here and do these big squeegee marks and not going to go too crazy with it.


And I'm not trying to cover up all the red.


I'm just trying to get certain areas and show the white on the top of the red.


And then, I can come in and I can actually just do almost like, I guess you would say it's like almost a karate chop or samurai swing to the right or left.


In this clip we're going to talk about how to buy a trophy. Most people will come into my show room and they'll ask me how much is a twenty inch trophy.


So when it comes to buying a trophy, it's not how tall it is for the dollar.


It's really, what you get for your dollar.


And I say to them we don't sell trophies by the inch, and I give them this fine example here.


If you go to any trophy store and they can offer you this forty-eight inch trophy for as little as $20.


As you can see, if you were to buy a trophy by the inch, someone could sell you this and you wouldn't be very happy with it.


So my recommendation is not to try and buy a trophy based on how tall it is but take into consideration the materials that it's made of.


We use marble bases that are imported directly from Italy.


We also put little felt dots on the bottom of the trophies and that keeps them from scratching your furniture when you get home.


A lot of times people will try and save money in building a trophy by leaving out these little things.


We're going to be speaking about cross stitch craft kits today.


My name is Daniel King, and I'm an experienced pattern maker, designer and sewer.


Cross stitch craft kits are kits that you can order through many craft stores or art supply stores.


These kits allow you to do different designs.


What the kit incorporates is a fabric background, usually the different colored threads, and a hoop for hooping and taut, to make the fabric taut.


With these designs you can make, typically, any type of plaque, maybe stockings for Christmas, or even portraits.


It allows you to take these different threads and stitch one through the fabric and to follow along the design to create whatever design it is.


These kits are available in most craft stores, and it gives you some flexibility as to what kind of designs you like.


Again, we're talking about cross stitch....cross stitch craft kits.


This is Robert Stewart, with Hill13.com.


Now, we're going to talk about some advanced tactics, and the importance of employing all that you've learned in terms of individual drilling, and all of the basic tactical awarenesses and skills you need to have, to function as a highly effective player.


When you get into advance tactics, you're talking about a lot of teamwork.


You're talking about everyone on your team, having those individual skills down, and being able to use them in concert with one another, so we're going to be going over the taking of buildings, the defending of buildings, and the critical elements required tactically, to integrate a team together, and have them function as a single system, with a goal, where everyone on the team is working together.


A lot of what's required, is stressing the importance of communication.


It's stressing the importance of maintaining your situational awareness.


Knowing what's happening with your other team members at all times, and inside of the shifting dynamics, having the tactical skills necessary, to support, defend, and be aggressive, at the same time.


When you teach your children at home, it allows you a greater opportunity to have time as a family.


One important reason for the benefit of home schooling is academic success.


Researh says that the average home school child is 1 to 2 grades levels above their public or private school peers.


These are just some of the wonderful benefits why families home school.


I am the administrator of California educators and principal of Sunland Christian School.


This clip we will talk about the benefits to home schooling.


Many families begin to home school not because of concerns of academics or because of concerns of the local public or private school because they are concerned about things relative to the family.


Home schooling can provide a great opportunity for family unity.


To do things together, to learn together and to grow together.


In specifically Southern California there is a lot of issues relative to a flexibility of schedule.


It is important to understand that home schooling allows for great flexibility.


Moms are already running around like chickens with their heads cut off, taxing kids here and there.


This is a great "who dun it" guessing game and you should use a minimum of 6-8 people.


When the murderer chooses they will choose a victim and kill them.


How they will do that is by shaking their hand and doing a little tickle inside.


So just scratching the inside of the hand but doing it very discreetly so that no one else sees when the victim has been killed.


They have to shake three more hands just so that it's not obvious who killed them and then they get to choose a way they want to die nice, and big, and dramatic.


So if I was to kill David "hi, how are you", he's going to shake three more hands and on the third hand die.


"Aahh", good, then we have our victim dead lying on the floor and the rest of us have to try to figure out who killed him.


Now again only the person running the game and the person that's dead knows, but the person that's dead can't say anything.


So you vote and the majority wins so whoever you want to, its kind of a witch hunt at this point, you just pick and choose who you think might look suspicious and if that person actually is indeed the murderer lets say you say "ah", everyone agrees it was Joe, the person running the game knows if its Joe or not if it was Joe they say "yes, you guys have won", if its not they just say "nope, that is not the murderer", and you just, Joe has to die though and then the games goes again and again until either the murderer is killed every body off without being killed themselves or until they've been found out by the crowd.


What you do one, is choose one person who is just going to run the game.


They don't actually get to participate, so if you are playing this with kids maybe if you have an adult in the room they could choose to be the one running the game or just maybe an adult that doesn't feel like playing if its a group of adults they can run the game.


Basically, they are going to have all the adults close their eyes or kids close or cover your eyes and the person running the game will choose one person to be the murderer.


They just choose them by tapping them gently on the head.


That person is the murderer only they know it and the person running the game knows it.


Everybody's eyes open and the game begins.


You just start walking around the room shaking everybody's hands with a nice greeting "hi, how are you", "hi, how are you".


Today I'm going to teach you how to become a competitive baseball player.


In this segment we're going to demonstrate batting practice with live pitching.


Now as oppose of the machine, the machine pitches automatic fastballs and an automatic curve balls going from one angle to one angle only.


Life pitching determines more of a simulated angle of the game as the pitchers as hitters are seeing pitchers from various arm angles to where they can adjust to improve there hitting.


This makes to be a more effective hitting practice regiment than the machine.


The machine is mainly for timing for fastballs.


But as opposed to the live pitching you get various angles, live angles from an actual pitcher when hitting the ball.


Normally for a lefty, you would set this type of a L cage at this and have balls being thrown by a left handed pitcher on this end.


You can flip the machine over (flip the cage over) in order to throw the ball right handed.


We also tow them, so if it's very inoperable and, or you just don't want to drive it in, you can have us come in and we'll tow the vehicle, then you can bring later in that title and we pay at that time.


I'm the general manager from Kurt's Auto Wrecking in American Fork, Utah.


And today we're giving you information on selling your junk car in Tampa.


Now the best thing you can do first of all is to clear your car out with all the stuff that you would like and take your license plates off.


Now next, there's many companies that you can sell your vehicle to.


In order to find those type of companies, you can get in the phone book and search, look under recycling centers or scrap yards or salvage yards.


Or, you can also go onto a web search like Google and type in any of those keywords again, and they will be able, and you'll pull up a bunch of scrap metal companies or recyclers, and they will be able to help you to find somewhere to sell those vehicles that are no longer operable or you just don't want anymore, and they're not worth a bunch of money.


Now, the best thing to do, again, is to have your title with you, and do not fill it out until you become on site so that we don't have any paperwork issues, and they're not any signatures in the wrong lines.


And you come in and we pay you cash at the time you drop it off.


All right, the drink we're about to make is called San Juan Cooler.


Let's go ahead and put some ice in a glass.


And follow that up with three fourths of an ounce of dry vermouth.


And we'll just fill it up with pineapple juice.


And let's get our spoon, so if you find yourself in San Juan and the temperature is really getting to you, just really need something that's going to quench your thirst and cool you down, and at the same time maybe loosen you up a little bit, you can order the San Juan Cooler, or if you're just in a bar in Northern Idaho and decide you'd like a nice cocktail, you can order a San Juan Cooler there as well.


Let's go ahead and garnish that with an orange and a cherry and that's it, bottoms up.


Today we're going to be talking about buying a new car.


So just because a brand new car has never been titled, doesn't necessarily mean that you can't end up with a brand new car that has been titled and save yourself a bunch of money.


So find out whether you are really a new car buyer or maybe you're a used car buyer with the same model year with a few miles on it so that you can save yourself some money.


You can save upwards of 5 to 10 and even sometimes 20 thousand dollars on buying a new used car versus buying a brand new car without an MOS.


So find out whether or not you're really a new car buyer.


When it comes to buying a new car, remember, its ok to say no.


Just 'cause they ask you to pay a certain amount of money for a car, doesn't mean that you have to.


Sometimes the best tactic to buying a new car is getting up and leaving.


If they say they can't sell you the car and they really can't, then they won't, but there's no reason why you can't come back tomorrow and try again, but if they come chasing you out the door and they say ok ok we want to sell you the car, then you can feel like you got a good deal.


When buying a new car, don't be afraid to ask your dealership to allow them to allow you to look at the invoice.


That's what they paid for the car and nine times out of ten, the dealership will be willing to share that information with you in order for you to make an educated decision.


In this segment we're talk about negotiating on a new car.


If you know how much they paid for a car, then you're willing to offer them a little bit more than what they paid for the car, usually they'll be willing to sell it to.


Also remember that when buying a new car, depending on how many days its been in their inventory, they may be motivated to sell that particular car than not.


So don't be afraid to ask if you can purchase the car that is many days in stock so that they'll be willing to give you a better car deal.


Remember, just because buying a car at invoice is what the dealership does, doesn't mean you have to.


You can always buy the car for below invoice, especially if that dealership's had that car in stock for more than 300 days.


Its easy to buy a new car, 'cause they'll either tell you yes you can buy it for that, or no you can't.


The manufacturers is the one that determines what the car costs.


The dealership buys the car from the manufacturer and there are many websites out there that tell you what the actual cost of the car is.


Once you determine how much that car costs, its up to the dealership whether to sell you the car for that, for less than that, or for more than that.


Depending on the desirability of that new car, which means how hot it is in the market, that's exactly what's going to determine whether you get a great deal on your new car purchase or not necessarily a great deal.


Always remember that the difference between a new car and a used car is that a new car has an MSO, which is the Manufacture Certificate of Origin.


The minute that you purchase that new car though, it becomes titled and then it becomes a used car.


I'm Cooie Grey-Lavin and in this clip, I'll show you how to use unique headstones to customize your yard.


Another way to add interest to your yard, in our family we make little headstones for all our dogs that have died.


This particular one is our Golden Retriever.


Scooter, so that's his name in old typeset.


These are the colors that were in his collar.


He was a Golden Retriever, so we have that and he also loved to chase raccoons and he had chased one a short time before he died, so we put a raccoon in it.


That you can place around the yard, it's a simple mosaic stepping stone technique but we just added some different pieces to make it more interesting.


You can add memorial plaques or plaques for members of your family that are, don't live there and you miss them to sort of remembrances.


They add a nice personal touch to your yard.


Adding a mosaic headstone to your yard can make more personal and unique.


Okay, another thing that for me is important.


You have little masks, they're just paper masks.


You can get them at Home Depot or Lowes.


And they're actually called painters masks.


You can get a pack of, you know, several for just a couple of dollars.


If you have those, keep them in here on hand.


You know, it protects your health when you're cleaning.


You don't have to worry about any hazardous chemical getting into your system.


And it just makes the whole process a lot safer for you.


And for your children if you have children that help out cleaning around the house.


So I would recommend having a mask on hand.


Some people may prefer to use products that don't have chemicals.


But because I do, I enjoy having the disinfectants.


I like to wear a mask while I'm cleaning.


Because you don't need to be breathing those chemicals in.


And with that, we have our completed awards show menu, and just in time, because it looks like the pre-show is just ending.


If it is in place of a meal, however, you want to have--bank on five to seven different appetizers, and again, two to three per person.


We started with our phyllo tartlets with the ricotta, and sundried tomato, and feta, and goat cheese inside--really, really delicious.


Then, we did our puff pastry cheese straws, which you see how it sort of draws your eye up.


You've got very short, small bites of the little smoked salmon canapes, which is a nice contrast in height to the puff pastry cheese straws arranged in this vase, just with some decorative rocks in the bottom.


And then of course we go to the smoked salmon canape, with some creme fraiche which is very creamy, and then the saltiness of the fish, and the nice nutty flavor and texture of the--this so-called "European bread"--which you can then take a little lemon juice to.


And then we finish with our fricos, our parmesan crackers with mache, that baby lettuce, and served in an alternate way in the martini glass with just the same parmesan crisp, but not in the arced format.


So just another guideline to keep in mind: how do you know how many appetizers to make for your party?


If it's not during a mealtime, you want to have at least two to three kinds of appetizers, so in this case, we've got the four.


But at least two to three kinds, and bank on two minimum per person for your party.


LAURA BANFORD: Now, I'm going to talk about knife sharpening.


An interesting part about a sharp knife or a knife that's not so sharp is it is much easier to cut yourself with a dull knife than it is with a sharp knife.


I happen to have this sharpening stone little system here that has three, three stones on it.


This is a coarse stone for major sharpening tasks.


This is a medium stone which will give you a more refined sharpening task.


And this is a fine sharpening stone just to touch up your blade a little bit.


I sharpen my knives just about every day.


And I sharpen knives when I'm at work, I sharpen my knives before every task, so I don't have to stop in the middle and go back and sharpen it.


This is a sharpening steel. This does not sharpen your knife. This will refine your blade, but it won't sharpen your knife.


After you sharpen your knife, you use this. And I'll show you that at the end. Okay. What I want to do here is to get, to get a nice edge on my knife.


Now, if you're working with a dull knife, it's not cutting, it's not cutting, you're going to use a lot more pressure, a lot more force, and not use--and get away from the actual technique that you should be using for whatever task you're doing, and that's when you end up cutting yourself.


You want to hit, take your knife and hit the sharpening stone at a 45 degree angle. That is about like this.


And you have to, you'll have to try it to get it right, but you have to perfect your technique 'cause you want to go from the base of the knife near the guard all the way to the tip.


Like that. Whatever you do one way, you have to do the other way because you're making an edge. And try to make sure you have the 45 degree angle.


You might, you might go from coarse to fine just to refine your edge.


And after that, you want to use your sharpening steel, which is really just refining the edge.


The same as with the sharpening stone, whatever you do to one side, you have to do to the other side, that's why you go like this.


And as in anything, practice makes perfect.


When we come back, we're going to use some of our knives.


If you're pushing and using more force and straying away from the actual perfect technique, you're going to cut yourself, and I've done that.


I don't want to tell you about the frozen turkey Thanksgiving morning.


That's an old--that was a long time ago, and I still remember it.


The way to sharpen a knife is to use a sharpening stone.


A lot of chefs would buy a couple of sharpening stones in various degrees of coarseness.


There are two types of scissors that I like to use.


The straight pair of scissors that are straight and long and then curved pair of scissors that help with around the feet and areas like that.


First I'm going to straighten up her leg, to where I position the leg where I want it and then I'm going to go down the backside of the leg.


And if your dog tends to move, you might want to hold your dog this way and just and you go around the leg and take off the little pieces that are sticking out everywhere.


And then we're going to go around to the front area of the leg and I'm going to go take the round scissors and round off the bottom and clean it up nice.


Remove the hair and pull her leg up and keep finishing with the little pieces of hair that are sticking out here and there.


So we are going to work one side of the body, and then we will work the other side of your body, and we want to follow a rep scheme of anywhere from ten reps to fifteen reps per side.


Again that is ten reps to fifteen reps per side.


For the bigger guys it is going to be a bit harder I know, but still try to stay with it.


It is really going to help with your stability and coordination and balance on the field.


And then after we finish with this exercise, when we come back and start the workouts all over again with workout one, you are going to have a lot more stability and balance to help develop more power.


So thanks a lot for joining us here, I appreciate it.


I am mike Rosengart and this is my workout partner Jonsey.


Check us out again online and have a good workout.


So this is the last exercise in our isolated series, working from the dumbbell rows to the hops to the lateral hops, forward hops, and now we are going to do plank position, and we are going to do dog pointers, which is the same exercise that we did in our previous workout, but this time we are going to do it isolated.


We are going to stick with one side, we are going to add another variability into it.


So Jonsey go ahead, pop up into your plank position.


We are going to get the elbow and the knee to touch underneath your body each time, and then get the full extension out.


This is really going to put focus on shoulder stability of the off shoulder and off hip, at the same time working for balance and coordination and mobility through your torso as you are working.


You know, a medical emergency in an infant, can be a pretty scary and traumatic process, for a parent or a rescuer.


Hi, I'm Captain Joe Bruni, and what I'm going to talk about, is how to stop choking in the infant victim.


The infant victim must first be placed in the rescuer's arm, supporting the head, and chest area on the forearm.


Find a place where you can sit with the victim, placing them head down, and supporting the head.


You will then deliver a series of five back blows, and five chest thrusts, in succession, so it would be one, two, three, four, five.


Roll the victim over, supporting the head and body, on the other forearm, and deliver five chest thrusts, in succession, until the object has been dislodged.


After a series of five back blows, and chest thrusts, if it has not been dislodged, then repeat the process, of back blows and chest thrusts, until the item is dislodged from the infant.


All right, we're ready to start our fire.


What I always like to have nearby is my blower, just in case it needs a little extra air and oxygen to get moving.


But you see you can insert these a lot further, rather than having a hand held lighter and trying to get your hand in there.


Or even using matches and throwing those.


We'll go ahead and see if its not too windy.


Can definitely see smoke, and where there is smoke there is fire.


Hopefully you can see the smoke on there, and it looks like it is catching real well .


And make sure that you stand outside of the line of the smoke, you wouldn't want to be breathing in the smoke.


So here we've got the startings of our bon fire.


I don't think its going to be an issue today since we've got a nice little bit of wind coming at us.


And that speaks to the next point of wich area should you light first.


Well, you should light all around the fire, two, three, four spots if you can.


But what we want to do is we want to light where the wind is coming from because that's going to give us a better chance of getting it catching fire, catching all of it on fire.


Maybe we won't have to light it in different spots around.


You'll actually be able to tell once you actually get it in there and get it lit.


So I'm going to go ahead and dip down here, and hopefully you can see this.


And I'm just going to light it, and it might take a couple of times to get the lighter going.


I like to put the glue bottle down sideways like this because it?s a little bit quicker, you don't have to let the glue run all the way down like when you put it upright.


Take a brush, little glue brush just like this, and spread this glue out very very thoroughly.


Make sure you get all the way to the end.


And you don't want a whole lot of sloppy glue running everywhere but you do want to have enough to completely coat all the parts.


And then we'll brush it out a little bit.


Set that down and we're going to do the same thing to this side.


O.k., perfect we're going to get started in a second.


I know a lot of ladies out there are wondering, "How do I get my skin clean?


We don't want to sleep all night with makeup on our skin, because this can cause breakouts and acne on the skin.


So make sure to use a good cleansing product when removing makeup.


Makeup is something that all women love to use but we also need to remember to remove it properly.


Simply apply the cleanser or cream to your hands and apply it to the face and begin rubbing.


Now remember, getting rid of that makeup you might have to cleanse twice.


So don't be afraid to go back over your face again a second time.


Remember, cleansing your skin is very easy and you can do it yourself at home.


My name is Sylvia Russell and this is how you can clean your skin and get rid of makeup.


My name is Sylvia Russell and today we're going to show you how to clean your face and get rid of makeup.


Now make sure that you have the proper products; cleansing gel, cleansing wash, whatever you like on your skin, make sure you have it handy.


Make sure you have water and you have a towel or some paper towels and cotton to help you clean up.


So what you're going to do is go ahead and begin to wash your face.


Now remember, cleansing the skin is something that can be very easily done at home, and it's something that you want to do on a regular basis.


Hi, I'm Stan DeFreitas, Mr. Green Thumb for On Gardening.


Now this is a petunia variety called Wave.


And you can see the reason it's called Wave because it tends to just lap over every area.


Now there's a bunch of different kinds of petunias, which we've talked about in the past in different things, but the Wave Petunia is one that you'll find great for a hanging basket, or as a bedding plant where you want it to spill over into another area.


The Wave Petunias will flower just about every day, and they'll give you a bunch of flowers from early Spring through Fall, depending on where you're at.


Now petunias are fairly heavy feeders, so I'd make sure that you give it about every week or two about half strength with a good water soluble plant food.


You might also when you plant them, make sure it's got good peat and pearl like combination.


Many of the good mixes that are professional mixes will be good for this particular plant.


Remember in baskets, they tend to dry out a little bit quicker, so if you've got a hanging basket like this one is, you're going to have to make sure that you water it on almost a daily basis.


For On Gardening, I'm Stan DeFreitas, Mr. Green Thumb.


Running tumbling is going to be a great way for the whole entire squad to show off their tumbling skills.


We're going to have a second group of tumblers facing diagonal on the right hand side.


Then you're going to designate which side is going to go first.


They're going to do their running, their round-off back handspring, all the way till you land.


And then you need to continue stepping off your floor.


Now it's really important for these to go really fast for them to be effective.


So as soon as you see the person cross in front of you, you want to start with your run.


And it's going to be really great because we're going to have a lot of building momentum.


We're going to have someone go with the handspring, someone go with the handspring tuck, someone go with the handspring full, someone go with the double layout full.


Now granted, every squad is going to have tumblers of different levels.


A lot of squads are going to have people who can just do the round-off back handspring; all the way up to people who can master double fulls.


Now when you're doing your running tumbling, usually you want to make sure you can get as much distance as you can, as much run, and it's all going to start off with the round-off back handspring.


That's where we're going to get all of our momentum from.


Now if the round-off back handspring is the highest skill you've mastered, that's wonderful, and you're going to go ahead and be the first person to go on your squad.


Usually what we try to do is build the tumbling from the lowest level all the way up to the highest level.


Now the most common tumbling pattern that we're going to use on cheerleading squads is what we like to call the X.


We're going to have a group of tumblers in line, facing diagonal on the left hand side.


Alright, we've taken a look at what it is that you're good at.


What skills you have and your educational background, so it's time to take a look at your work experience.


What did you learn from that job or from that work experience that will help you with you new employer, will help you get a job.


That's how you have to think about in terms of past work experience.


Maybe you've just had college type jobs that maybe weren't necessarily career jobs.


Or maybe you have had some, feel like of a better word, "real jobs".


What you want to do is take a look at that work experience.


Did you, you know, gain problem solving skills?


Don't just think in terms of "well I worked here".


So that's how I'm going to be packing my books, and my CD's, since I have them in these containers here, I'm probably going to keep them in these containers so that I don't have to use up another box, and because they are pretty heavy just as they are right now, in these things.


And I'm going to just put a piece of tape, or a rubber band, around it, around this case vertically to keep my CD's from coming out of the box.


And so those are some ideas on how to pack your books and your CD's.


There's not a lot that originate from the East Coast.


There are some but we have a lot of Mountain Lilies and Brodiaea, which is also called Triteleia, the Camassia, we have Bear Grass, we have all types of plants that you can find all around the world now.


Ismene or Peruvian Daffodil is a plant we sell in the summertime that's from Peru where the Incas developed it, so I like to think here we are 10,000 years later or 20,000 years later still enjoying a plant that their civilization created for us.


My favorite location for where plants grow, especially bulbs is South Africa.


There's a small area on the cape that produces 20% of all the bulbs that ever grown in the whole world.


We enjoy Freesia, Gladiolus, Calla Lilies, Watsonias, everything, Eucomis from South Africa, and we don't even realize an area the size of the Portland metropolitan area produced all those plants.


Next, watch the second part on our discussion of the native areas for flower bulbs.


I wanted to talk about where in the world do flower bulbs come from.


I'm always fascinated that there's really only a few regions in the world that all of the flower bulbs that you see in your garden actually originated from.


We're in North America right here and the bulbs that I sell were on the Pacific West Coast.


I'm in Kalama, Washington, just north of Portland, Oregon, and I sell a few native bulbs that are from our area like the Triteleias which are little purple blue flowers and Camassia, also called Camas root.


Camas, Washington was named after that plant, and the natives used to eat the little corms just like you eat hazelnuts or beer nuts.


There are lots of other plants that come from America too, Liatris or Gay-feather is from the Midwest, and then we go down to Mexico and I have Canna Lilies, Tigridias, Mexican Feather Grass, pretty much any plant.


Most bulbs are from mountainous regions.


So, everywhere all the way from the Cascades down through Mexico, you'll find most bulbs.


Now, we're going to trim the edge of the opening of the ballet slipper with some little pearls.


And, we're going to pipe the pearls with a number four tip.


Practice this on a piece of paper or a paper plate until you have a nice uniform pearl trim.


So, we're going to trim the edge where the white and the pink meet with this pearl border.


And, you're going to place them right on that border and go all the way around the cake.


Remember, you're just holding the tip just slightly above the cake so that the frosting will come out and spread a little into a little circle.


This makes a nice delicate trim for the edge of the slipper.


When you finish the beading around the around the shoe, you want to make a little bow here.


Just make a loop and another loop and two little strings coming down.


And, then just a little dot there for the tie.


And, how you make pearls is you want to twist your bag.


So, you just hold the tip over the paper or the cake about an eighth of an inch and you squeeze out until you get a little pearl.


And, as soon as it gets about this big then you pull it up.


Now, you don't want to squeeze squeeze squeeze and pull up and squeeze.


Because, you'll end up with something that looks like that.


So we've completed our little pin cushion doll and I think she's so cute she's just a personal little hand made that would make a fun gift for any seamstress that you know.


This would also be a great little project for a beginning sewer.


It's very easy just stitching all the way around it and the pattern is very easy and stuffing in.


This would be a good project maybe to work with like a child you can even use instead of stuffing you can use rice or even a bean bag.


Or as I mentioned before this would also make a great little dog toy and with doll toys, you just always want to keep in mind that you don't want to use anything that can be pulled off or get stuck in your throat or anything.


If you are going to be making this doll for a baby then I would just stick with a felt and the embroidery because there is not really any little parts that can be pulled out or anything.


But I think she's so fantastic and she's going to look so great as my pin cushion.


She's going to look fantastic on my desk so I hope you had as much fun making her as I did.


Now the first rule, the first thing you want to make sure you don't do when giving criticism is don't act in haste.


And what I mean by that is think about what you say before you say it.


There's an old saying that I think is real important to remember when we're talking about criticism, whether it?s written or whether it?s spoken.


So once the words are out there they are out there.


So think about what you're going to say before you say it.


If someone is attacking you or something is coming at you, it?s harder to not jump on that and act very quickly and tell somebody how terrible they are or what a jerk they are or whatever it is.


But try to stop, think about it so that the words that you say are not hurtful and more critical and negative and don't exacerbate the whole situation.


Hi this is Nigel with Blue Griffin Handyman and today we are going to talk about how to get rid of the paint smell in your house.


The first thing to do, the best thing to do is to avoid the fumes altogether.


Many paints these days come with a low VOC or a no VOC mixture and it will tell you on the back of the can like this one here says VOC at 132 grams per liter.


Now VOC stands for volatile organic compounds and that is what is causing the fumes in your house so what you want to do if you have to use some of these paints with VOC in them the best thing to do is to open the windows, all the windows in the house and put a fan on one end of the house so you can draw all the fumes out of the house and try to go to the park for the day or something and get out of the house so you don't have the smell those nasty vapors.


When you are using those type of paints with VOC in them definitely use some kind of breathing protection that will filter out those kinds of fumes.


So that is how to get the paint smell out of your house.


Hi, I'm James from Reptile Rescue Service in Salt Lake City, Utah.


If your turtle won't eat, that's the topic of this one, this discussion here.


So if you have one that has this disease, you need to keep 'em separate.


This will affect 'em on eating, and also they will be lazy and want to sleep a lot.


There could be a couple of variances of this one.


Could be, if it's a wild caught turtle, land turtle or tortoise, a lot of time they sense in they sense in the wintertime, it's time to hibernate.


At this time they'll quit eating, because if they have food in their belly when they go into hibernation, it can be fatal.


It'll actually ferment or rot, and can cause fatality to the turtle or tortoise.


Another sign of this could be if they have an upper respiratory infection, which is like a form of pneumonia to us humans.


If it's a Russian tortoise, a lot of these carry herpes disease.


This is not contagious to humans, but it is to other tortoises.


The kids can add glitter to it, stickers, it's really easy to do and it's great if they are having a tea party with their friends.


You can get rid of all of that old wrapping paper.


And again, it's a great recyclable craft if you have birthday party paper from a child's birthday.


Pool it all together, make a bunch of hats and let the kids run around and really have a good time with them.


And I will go ahead and just place my hat on and say thank you.


In this segment we're going to talk about consecutive rolls.


And what that means is doing a roll, and a roll, and a roll, and a roll, without stopping, without breaking any of the, any of the motion.


And the trick of that is, is right when the Frisbee comes to your second hand, is to push it up, right in the right angle, so it comes back to your other hand.


And it's again, it's the using your legs and using your arms.


But the last part is the critical part, to have it come here, so it sets up for your next roll.


An example of consecutive rolls: here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here.


Now if you noticed, every time that it came around to this arm, I was pushing it up, so it was almost right in the right spot for my next roll.


So the whole key is, is that right at the end and that push to make sure that it's set for the next roll.


Now, chameleons--one of the characteristics of chameleons is their amazing ability to change color.


So, as far as color changing goes, she also--many chameleons go through a breeding stage.


In the Veiled Chameleons, in males, it's called the sunburst phase.


They turn to bright colors, multi-colors, usually very bright, very eye-catching.


The females turn a--sometimes an orangish or brownish color during breeding season but many females will not display a very obvious change of color during breeding at all.


A hungry chameleon will often have--will often be trying to blend in with its environment.


This is when they tend to do that not only for hiding but for making sure that their prey doesn't see him.


Now, it's not just for hiding from enemies, they want to make sure that their prey is not aware of their presence either.


Now, an angry chameleon such as her--she's displaying right now.


What she's displaying is the angry colors.


She's trying to make sure that I know that I'm not welcome in her cage.


It's often thought that chameleons blend in with their environment but this is not the only reason they change color.


They do change colors with their environment to blend in such as browns for climbing on the trees, the greens for matching the leaves and they also turn colors when--according to their mood.


When they're angry, they tend to get--the Veiled Chameleons tend to get the black stripes with the white spots and the green in between.


And the sleeping chameleon will turn a bright lime green color with no spots.


Now, if she's cold, she's gonna--her whole body is going to turn more of a black color.


This is--because the dark colors absorb more heat and if she's cool, she's going to go sit under her basking light, turn a darker color and absorb as much heat as she can.


Now, when she is warm, when she's too warm, she's going to turn a lighter green color, sometimes a white color because this is when she wants to expel as much heat as she can.


This doesn't happen very often because of the fact that she likes the higher temperatures and where we live, we don't get too many high temperatures indoors.


This is Dr. Chris Mango, here in New York City.


The next muscle we're going to be taking a look at is the latissimus dorsi.


This is another common muscle that you might not know the name for, but everybody knows that they work under lats when they go to the gym.


Now, this can also cause a lot of pain in the side here, but it can also go into the arm a little bit.


Okay, so the latissimus dorsi connects along the iliac crest, up along the thoracic spine here, and then up into the shoulder and down.


Now, the muscles through this area, you can find trigger points through here and here, and that can cause pain that can come all in the side of the spine and down into the arm.


And you may not realize it, it may look okay, but there'll be something that's just off.


When you master getting the exact curves right, which is pretty easy, above the waist curve it down, below the waist, curve it up.


But, same thing with hems and everything, your outfit will be completely wrong if you have the curve going the wrong way.


Right now I'm going to show you that, colors, I want to say cripple some people.


They get a mind set that they have to use the same colors over and over and over and over again.


What colors do you think going to look good with it?


You know brown and green and blue are going to look good together because they're earth tones.


What you should do is when you're practicing, if you've got multiple colors like I do here, I have a tee shirt rack that's got 28, 29 colors on it.


You just got to remember that, don't be afraid to put colors together.


One thing my father taught me was, if you've got colors that are opposite of the color wheel, and that means if it's a cold color or a hot color meaning red or blue.


If you put them together they're going to vibrate against each other and they're going to get your attention and that's the whole point of putting them together is to get your attention.


So don't be afraid to put colors together.


Pink and brown, do something cool with the brown letters with a pink background and it'll look nice.


And you'll see that I have multiple air brushes.


At one time I had an air brush on every color.


And it just increases speed and efficiency whenever you're painting something.


Just find out what colors look good together with it.


I recommend strongly that original core that we talked about a long time ago have one person who is going to be the coordinator for vending, ideally you will have a vendor coordinator and someone also to handle food who may be with food booth or may understand industry.


It is a very specialized area and you can get yourself into all certain types of hassles if you don't do it right.


I suggest you getting a vending coordinator.


One for food and one for non-food vending and work with the vendors the best that they can.


In the next segment we are going to talk about another money issue which is sponsorship.


In this segment, I am going to touch on vending.


How to work with vendors and what they are all about.


When you go to a festival, you will also often see vendors.


You will see food vendors, non-food vendors, craft and arts and so on.


As a producer of the event, you need to look at it also as one of your income producers.


If you realize that each of those vendors might be paying say a $100 and if you have ten of those vendors that is a $1,000 that your festival has already to work with.


How many you have will also depend upon your budget and your site and what you can fit in but you need to think in terms of food and non-food vendors being an intricate part of your event.


Food vendors are a whole scene onto themselves because of the complications, health requirements, heating requirements and cooling requirements and the need for power that they bring into your festival.


Admittedly, my kicks aren't the most fancy or flashy in the world.


I don't kick people in the head standing up.


(demo) I could have an attacker dealing with me over on this side, and I may have to kick him to stop him from grabbing while I deal with this other attacker.


What I might want to do, instead of kicking the body like I said, here, (demo) is come in and kick the leg out.


You can have a lot of good effects kicking someone's knee out just like this.


(demo) If you're to the side of the person, (demo) kick out the inside of the leg.


Or, you can kick out the outside of the leg (demo) just like this.


Now, I'm doing that really easy because you can damage the person's knee.


But you'll see the way the leg folds (demo) just by kicking on the outside. Switch your feet. Or, the inside (demo) just like that.


Again, be very careful of practicing these kicks because you can roll the knee out and twist the ankle and the knee at the same time.


If I'm going to kick him in the head, I'm going to knock him down to the ground first, and then I'll kick him in the head where I don't have to stretch that far.


But, I think it's a great way to kick, bring it up, out, (demo) just like this.


A side kick, basically the way I do it, is I stand sideways to my partner, I'm going to take a step in, cross, kick up and out.


When I kick, I'm kicking with the outside edge of my foot, here, (demo) and then back.


(demo) My target, of course, will be anywhere on the body.


I prefer to kick in the legs, but for this example, I'm going to kick in the body (demo) just like this.


I'm using a heavy duty stapler and you want to make sure you test out your stapler on a scrap piece of wood to make sure that you know where the placement of the stapler is going to be because we're on a very narrow strip here and we don't want to miss our mark when we put our stapler in.


Now with these heavy duty staplers, you want to place it and put your hand right here to give downward pressure right here because if you don't the stapler tends to want to jump up and the staple won't go in properly.


Just color up those staples, it makes a big difference.


So, some of them have a little spot on top and they call it a power button and that's what they want you to do is push down and staple.


And then you have got a good staple right there nice and secure.


We're going to staple all the way down the edge and put those staples fairly close.


Now, when you're going over the whole section, you're going to need something to rest the stapler on.


Here i have just put a roll of tape, something that I can lean on.


If you don't use that, your stapler is going to go into the hole and it will shoot in the wrong direction.


So, you want to have something to prop up that stapler and we'll go about every half inch all the way down the side trying to keep those staples in a nice even row.


As a finishing touch, you might want to take a permanent marker and color over the staples so they don't stand out as much or you can touch it up with a little paint also.


And most of those dealers are setup with secondary finance companies that deal strictly with people that have bad credit or non-existent credit as opposed to the bigger dealerships, the big chains, the big Ford dealerships or the big Chevrolet dealerships.


Go to a smaller, buy here, pay here and most of those will have secondary financing.


That's exactly how you get a car loan with bad credit or non-existing credit.


Again, my name is Adriel Torres and I'm the owner of ultimatecredittoday.com.


We don't want the eye brows to look too over done or too powdered, so I'm just going to fill in a little bit just to get a nice natural arch.


The eyebrows really shape the face, especially when you have such a dramatic eye shadow look.


You really want to make sure that you don't forget your eyebrows.


Because her eyebrows are a little short, I'm going to draw just a tiny bit onto the ends just to extend them a little bit.


Again, how dark you want your brows to be.


Try to use a color that most closely matches your natural hair color.


Once you get your desired shape, take a little brow comb or brow brush and brush through the brows.


We're going to do a little bit in the brows.


What this does is it takes away the excess powder, blends everything in, and also you shape your brow at that point to your desired shape.


They're nicely shaped, but they're pretty light.


We want them to match more of her dark chestnut hair color.


I'm just going to fill in her natural brow line.


Hi, this is Sean Hobson and what we're talking about right now is using the proper mechanics to become not only a good shooter, but a good shooter from the free throw line.


So the last step that we have is to finish out your free throw.


What we see a lot of players do is they'll follow through, but then they'll pull their hand back and again, that's going to pull that basketball back a little bit and not let it go ahead and follow through the proper way.


The last thing is we don't want to fall take our shot and fall back off the free throw line.


If you shoot and you take a step back, it?s called negative energy.


You're taking energy away from that basketball and not allowing it to go on down.


So, remember when making a good free throw shot, its not just the shot, its also how you finish after the free throw that's going to make you a good free throw shooter.


If Kyle steps up to the line right here and gets himself ready.


What we're going to talk about is you have a good base, you have a good foundation.


You're going to make the shot; you're going to follow through at the end of the shot.


But the most important thing is by using your legs, a lot of time you see players come up and shoot their free throw and they stay flat footed and then end up hitting the ball on the front of the rim.


What we always want to do is you always want to finish your free throw up on your toes because what that does is when you get up on your toes, that's using the bottom of your leg muscles and its giving you just that extra edge to get that ball up and over the rim.


The other thing you want to make sure and do is always follow through and end up out in front of you.


You never want to end up with the ball up here.


And it's also, cooking the food is also about seeing the color of the food in the dish.


You'll see the different ingredients that we are going to put in this dish that you see the unique--the ingre--the colors of each and every ingredient, and this is part of the appeal.


I might add one more tomato of this dish, that you can see it's very rustic and you have to make it appetizing for--'cause you eat with your eyes as well, and you want to make this dish as appetizing as possible.


So, this is quite a straight forward recipe, and the ginger, garlic, we're waiting for the ginger to cook properly.


And for 1 more 2--1 or 2 more minutes, we'll give it--we'll leave it for 1 or 2 more minutes, and then we'll add our tomatoes to this.


I'm the owner and chef of Kashmir Indian Restaurant in Budapest.


The dish now we're going to be preparing is called paneer masala.


One ingredient that we'll be adding also is the tomatoes whilst the ginger and the garlic have been cooked slightly.


So, just--we'll give it one more shake, stir it once more properly.


The onions have been slightly browned now, and we added our green ginger, garlic, and the chilies.


We'll wait for that to cook and in the meanwhile, we'll take our tomatoes, maybe about 3 of them, and we'll cut them into cubes.


Again, we do not want tomatoes to be cut into very small cubes because we want to see, I mean, obviously, it will be cooked well with the masala, but you'll somehow see the redness of the tomato.


As I mentioned earlier most portable electric sanders run on 110 or house current. Pretty much any extension cord will work.


These sanders don't require significant amounts of power.


You don't need a very heavy gauge extension cord, your standard, I think this is a fourteen gauge extension cord, will do.


But to power it up, first, make sure your sander is in the off position, make sure the power switch is off.


And then a little helpful thing that I like to do is before I connect my extension cord, to help keep it from coming unplugged while you're using it, we're going to tie a knot in the cord.


We'll just hold the two, come around, draw it into a knot and now you can plug it in.


Notice that one pole on the extension cord is larger than the other so it will only go in one way.


Lesson 12-The Mascara Brush: Every mascara bottle of course comes with a mascara brush.


They all do come in different shapes and different sizes.


I like this mascara and the best way to apply your mascara and use your mascara brush is to start from the inner most part of your eyelash and wiggle and work your way up to the tip of your eyelash.


This adds fullness to the eyelash without actually not having to use a volumizer mascara.


Mascara brushes are sold at drug stores or your beauty supply store and they do come in different sizes, like I said, and it is best to change your mascara brush because it tends to build up bacteria and to clump.


The best way to prevent clumping is to actually take your mascara brush, and if you do see any clumps on your brush, is to wipe it off on a napkin or a paper towel that won't leave any residue behind.


It's best not to take your mascara brush and wipe the excess off on the lid of the bottle because that just rubs right back in and that's what causes the clumping, and then you'll have the clumps left over on your eyelashes.


That is the mascara brush and that's how you use it.


I would like to talk with you now about international stoves.


When you see the word international you would think about going overseas and you may be going into a country where certain fuels are hard to find.


This liquid fuel stove happens to be a white gas stove but they make a version of it that uses multiple fuels.


Kerosene, some of them will even burn diesel, naphta, different fuels that might be easier for you to find elsewhere.


This stove right here has a special feature, if you don't find an MSR cartridge abroad you might find some other ones and they might not have a thread to screw on.


So what this has it has a little catch that goes over top of here and then instead of screwing on it descends down on to the cartridge.


These type of stoves give you a little more latitude of what kind of fuel you can get for them.


If you have any questions on these types of stoves give your outfitter a holler.


So the next step in making your clays is going to be to sieve the mixture.


Now I've got one of these large fancy sieves, it's got brushes on the bottom and it turns, and then it comes with screens at different meshes, this one is 80 mesh; the higher the number the finer the particles, so 100 would be tighter woven than this one is.


Anywhere from about 80 to 100 is appropriate for most glazes, a 50 might not be fine enough, and you don't want to go too much thinner than a 100, because some of your materials might not be small enough to go through.


So you're going to mix, just stir up again, feel the bottom, you want to have a large spoon.


Make sure that there's no big chunks kind of laying in weight down there.


And then you'll take a pitcher, and get a scoop, poor it right into your sieve.


And then with this one you just turn the brushes, and that pushes the material through the screen.


If you don't have a big fancy one like this with the brushes, a lot of times wear a rubber clove and just kind of use your hand to work the materials through the screen that works also.


So I'm going to go through this entire bucket, and just keep scooping and pushing it through the screen, until I've got the whole thing complete.


That's how you do it, I'm Russ Handler, and I need to make a phone call.


Okay, it is efficiently chilled, just brought it out of the refrigerator.


It was in there about twenty five minutes or so.


So that's what you look for, just nice solid fudge.


Again, put it in the freezer if you need to.


I will say that if you want to take this with you somewhere, try to keep it in a frig.


You know if you take it to the office maybe as a little dessert after your lunch, that's a great idea.


Just pop it back in the frig when you get to work.


Because again that coconut oil is very sensitive to temperature.


So, it's perfectly congealed for me and solidified but as soon as I'm done you know, cutting it and showing you what it looks like I'm going to put it back in the freezer.


And you can pop it in the freezer if you need to, that's okay too.


We poured it in and it was smooth, and now it looks like a rough rugged terrain that you would need a four wheel drive to go over.


Fudge is homemade, at least it should be, so that's okay, not a big deal.


I personally don't care what my fudge looks like as long as it tastes good.


It even has a little ridge right here that cracked, you know, not, didn't crack but it has a little ridge that broke off.


What will happen is the contact lens will stick to a wet surface better than a dry surface.


Put it on the fingertip, move it over, and pinch it off.


You can sand that glue smooth until you feel comfortable putting your other piece on, to make a smooth transition between the two pieces.


Once you get the glue off, you just simply, simply stick your other adhesive tile down in its place and you have a fixed adhesive tile.


Now there are other options if you're having trouble getting the adhesive tile off the floor, you can actually soak a rag in solvent and drape the rag over the top of the floor and cover it with plastic to keep the fumes from getting out and that will actually work on dissolving that glue underneath and may make it a little bit easier for you to get that piece out.


My name's Ryan Parker with Parker Home Renovations and you can contact me at: parkerhomerenovations.com.


So you may have to replace it with something close to it.


Now the first thing you're going to need to do when repairing one of these vinyl floor, flooring pieces is take your utility knife and you're actually going to want to cut off a corner of the tile.


So, you're going to want to do like that, and then if you can, in some cases you could actually get into the, that piece with the end of your razor blade and pick it out like this.


If you're lucky enough to be able to do that, then from there you can pretty much pick at it and tear that piece out.


If you can't get to it like that, you may have to get creative with a, like a chisel of some sort and just get a hammer and chisel it up, and then you can get a chisel from the other side and chisel that piece out.


Once you get that piece out, then you'll have to get whatever glue is on, on the floor, off, and how you can do that is you can use any kind of a cleaner to actually soak that area for a little while and you can scrape it up with a razor or you can sand that glue if that glue is really dry.


In this series, we're learning all about fall-blooming flower bulbs.


When in doubt, go sideways as another rule, and they multiply quickly.


But I found with all bulbs, they like to be in groups just like people do.


So if you put three in a triangle, it'll do much better than one by itself.


I put 'em in some of the boggier areas in my yard and they've done well, too.


And it'll do well in drought conditions.


They're a plant that probably never needs to be watered and you'll never lose 'em.


So Montbretia is the same as a Crocosmia and these were hybridized, the Lucifer, in England back in 1966, and I like to think that was the same year I was born.


And some of my favorite flower bulbs are the Crocosmias, and within the crocosmias, the Lucifer.


So they've been around for not a long time really in botanical history, but they're really a smash.


The next fall-blooming bulb that we'll talk about is Crocosmia Carmine Brilliant.


It's a native to South Africa, so it does very well in the Pacific Northwest, and it almost grows as a weed.


It really likes full, hot sun and good drainage, and hummingbirds love it.


I mean, once you've got a group of Crocosmia, you'll have thousands of hummingbirds in your yard.


And they're easy bulb to recognize and easy bulb to plant.


They look like a Hershey's Kiss candy, and there's a root side and bullseye side.


So next, getting on a step ladder, we're going to stand up here and start putting on our hillsides using a brush.


Now this is going to be more detail put on.


You can see here where it's, get the line really fine.


But that also means the paint could be a little thin.


So be prepared for this even if you didn't have to with the rest of the base layer here.


Be prepared to have to put on multiple coats.


Which again, allowing about a day to maybe even two days to dry between coats.


I generally recommend being 2 to 3 inches wide.


And what we're going to do is you notice that the line here is really blocky.


Get lots of paint on your brush here and we're going to start coloring in the hills.


See like this nice rise and fall I'm getting?


And we're going to keep extending this throughout with gentle rises and falls.


Alright, the drink we're about to make is called, Flaming Giraffe, that sounds sad, doesn't it, it's actually a very tasty shot.


Alright, we're going to get something that can fit a double shot in it, so this glass will do here.


And we're going to measure out 2 ounces of Kahlua, and make sure you add the alcohols in this order, okay, there we go, 2 ounces of Kahlua, and one ounce of butterscotch schnapps, there we go, and the last thing you're going to do is add 1 ounce of 151 proof rum, there we go.


And now grab a match or a lighter, and some friends to watch, go ahead and set the drink on fire, the 151 should light pretty easily, and let it sit, enjoy the luster of the flames, blow it out, and take it down.


And you've learned today a lot of different ways to set up adaptable seating, adaptable paddles, paddling techniques, and so forth, for adaptive canoeing programs for people with disabilities.


The neat thing about this is a lot of these adaptive and accessible points we've made today can also be set up for other programs, such as kayaking, or even white water rafting.


A lot of this stuff just takes a little bit of patience and innovation, but for example, this adaptive paddle with just these good old bike tire grips can be used for white water rafting, to help somebody grip the paddle while rafting, or even the Chosen Valley seat, like I mentioned before; the seat can also be attached to a raft frame.


We don't have a raft here with us today, but again, just use a little bit of innovation and some patience to help modify a way to adjust the seat to the a rack frame, and we've taken it; like I said before, down a five day rafting trip down Cataract Canyon, which is full of much larger rapids.


So, it's very durable, and you know, a lot of these systems can also be set up for kayaking.


Just look at the kayak you're using, look at the raft you're using, your participant needs, and just sort of adjust from there.


See how far off we are or how on we are and you can see we're right on with that.


Now we, it's still attached to the hump and we are going to take that off in the same way that we took off the other one.


We are going to create a little grove and we're going to put a piece of dental floss on there.


Get a grip on it and just draw the dental floss through and as you can see it just released and then we're going to place our fingers on the side pop it off and stick over by the other piece.


Now we have completed two parts of the lid.


We have completed the lower part the base and the top part.


Next we're going to create the little handle that sits on the top.


For the sake of what we're doing today I'm going to go ahead and say that's about as much as I want riding on the edges there.


Now that I've drawn the size of paper that I want to use, I like to get this paper just to where I can just work with this paper.


So, basically, I'm going to use this razor blade knife and this metal ruler which you can see it has a cork on the bottom of it which actually gives it space from the paper.


There's no rush when you're using this blade.


That's the key point I'm trying to make.


And I'll just do the same thing, I just set the ruler to the right.


And you may have to score it a couple of times because it's a thicker paper so it didn't separate.


Which on this paper it usually takes two.


And one thing that it's good for is if you're, especially if you're using ink pens or markers, you've probably noticed when you do a line on a ruler that's flat to the paper, it smears.


Then you can see that it separated on the second score.


And this one's going to be feisty and I'm going to have to do a third one.


So now this is the actual piece that I'm going to use.


This drawing table actually has a cutting mat that I bought and put that on there to fit to size so it's like self healing.


You can get that at your art store as well.


That little bit of space will prevent the marker from smearing the edge of the border that you're doing.


But in this case, I'm going to use it for cutting out the paper.


So I'm going to line it up on my outside edge.


And be very careful when you're using these knives because they don't play around.


So once I get it to where I want it, and I'm just going to set the blade at the corner and I'm going to slowly put pressure, and just drag it down while I'm holding the ruler in place to keep a nice straight line.


Then I'll come over here and for me, personally, I like to pull the blade towards me but slowly, because you don't want to....


As you can see I've put down a few of the pieces now of my bottom layer, I'm going to move on to what I consider to be my next layer.


So again, laying out some of my mixed medium onto my plexiglass board.


Laying my piece out because it keeps it steady for me.


Lifting it up in the corner with my brush, lifting it over and you know you are going to have a little bit of messiness, it is going to get on to your fingers.


You want to make sure that though in between when are using different tools and stuff, you are being careful not to get too much on everything else because it's a lot to clean up later.


So I push it down with my fingers, and I go right to my rag to wipe my fingers off, again lay some more down, and you can see I'm working fairly quickly, and the reason for this is when you have these adhesives laying down to the board acrylic gel mediums tend to dry very quickly just as acrylic paints do.


Ok get that piece up so I'm going for reinforcements with my, there it goes.


Sometimes it gets a little stuck, always wipe the edge though of your exacto blade off, that blade is going to end up tending to be a blade that your not really going to be able to use for cutting much anymore, so you may want to have two of the tools available to you so that in case one of them, you want to just keep that open for cutting and the other one you can use for lifting the materials up when they get stuck.


What I'll be demonstrating here is the Power Dumbbell Chest Presses.


You want to do this flat on the ground here, take two dumbbells, put them on to the side of the body.


What you want to do is power up, flex the chest, come down all the way to the ground, flat against the surface, hold it for about one to two seconds, power back up.


Flex on top, down for about one to two seconds and power back up.


You want to continue this motion here for about eight to ten reps and about three to four sets.


So you see this is a power movement, it is good to try to use heavy weights on this.


This will help in building some thickness in the chest.


Again, when then flat on the ground, power it up.


And that's how you do Power Dumbbell Chest Presses.


Sponges and the wire tool are tools you use every time you throw as well.


A wire tool is what removes your piece from the bat, or from the wheel, and without the wire tool there is no way to disconnect the clay that adheres to the surface when you're throwing it, from the surface.


So this is my favorite choice of sponges.


So I use, I usually get probably one a month just because, you can see I've had this not too long and it's already starting to kind of warp and I like the new crisp ones.


Sponges are a real personal choice as well.


I usually use pretty small ones unless I'm throwing something really large, and then sometimes I'll even use one, each one in each hand.


They seem to last a little better, but I really like the smoothness of the natural sponges, plus this angle I can get, sometimes I'll even cut my sponges actually just to get that edge that I need for certain shapes.


This one I haven't cut and it fits perfectly in my hand.


From the moment that you decide to sell your home, it is time to start thinking about your marketing strategy.


Staging should be an interval part of your marketing strategy.


If you decide to sell your home, then you want to contact a stager approximately 30 to 45 days before you anticipate putting it on a market.


There are several reasons why it is so critical.


First and foremost, you want to allow a stager and your real estate agent enough of time to prepare your home before it goes on the market.


Sometimes there is work that could be done to paint, to work on the landscaping, to organize the home prior to selling, to declutter the home and we even sometimes pre-pack your home so that when it is time to move out of your house, you are that much further ahead in the moving process.


By working with a certified stager like K. Nicole Redesign, you can have a full service approach during one of the most stressful times in your life.


So this is this is clip one and its about how to pick a suitable idea to make a glass mosaic.


I don't know how to explain this except that sometimes ideas just come into my head out of someplace.


Anything, a scene you might see, take a photograph of it.


I've taken photographs of things and used that as a basis.


So those are some of the ways that you can use to start with.


Or else I think maybe people would like to see something that's more abstract and I just kinda just have fun with the glass and add other materials to it and so on.


Other times I see pictures of something like I saw a picture of a Beatles on Abbey Road and I though boy that would be neat to do that in glass.


Or pictures of some horses I saw in the paper that were, they had their noses together, looked like they were kissing and I thought that was really sweet.


Or else sometimes I see a picture of horse races like this in the paper.


And I think, boy that would be neat, how could I put that all together in a horse race?


So one of the ways you can get ideas for doing a project like this is to maybe scan over some art books.


There's a lot of art books that are out there and all the old masters and different people or more modern things.


Hi I'm Ann Myrick and today I'm going to show you how to arrange your China cabinet.


Now one thing that I am big on is not putting glass, sorry, with glass.


This one a lot of times I'll leave the door open and then I'll hang a picture or I'll hang something on the door but then also you can shut it and when you shut it you see all the pieces without seeing just clear glass.


This is Ann Myrick and those are ways to work with your China cabinet.


This has a glass door and when I see China cabinets that only have, many many times what people will do is people will not add weight.


Glasses, clear glasses do not have any weight with them so if you put glass in your china cabinet you are not creating weight, you are not creating interest.


What I like to do with my China cabinets or the ones that have glass is I like to put solid colors interesting pieces, bigger pieces, in it to create interest and to give color.


I have a collection of McCoy and what I did on this one, you'll see that I can barely see it but there is an old mirror up here that reflects the yellow back into it and then what I did is I grouped like colors.


When you have a collection that has a lot of different colors to it you want your eye to be able to move over it smoothly and if you had a yellow one and a white one and a green one and a yellow one you would be really choppy and so what I did in this is I grouped, I put all the colors in it but I grouped them together so as you are looking at it you see the yellow and your eye goes all the way across and you see the white and you see the greens and blues.


You can put books and really put antique books and a few bigger pieces.


I don't like to put a lot of little things in China cabinets.


You can use a China cabinet as an organizational piece but just play with it and make it look interesting.


Hi there I'm Melody Mooney and I'm going to share with you some tips on how to fold your clothes.


Today we're going to fold a dress shirt, but first things first.


So, what I'm going to do is I'm going to put the front side flat down on my area with the sleeves lying flat out.


So, now I'm looking at the back of the shirt, making it smooth.


I put it right in the shoulders where there's a gather.


I'm going to fold in, take my collar, grab it, fold this into the center and fold it one time back towards the left, so it looks like that.


So, I'll show you it again on the right side.


Take my right side at the cuff; fold it into the middle and then one time back towards the right.


Now, what I want to do is I want to take the bottom and I'm going to fold this up.


Fold this bottom up to the center, like so.


Now, I'm going to slide out my cardboard piece, put it to the side.


All that's left to do is fold one more time.


If you're traveling or you need to store them everything is neat and flat.


There you have it; how to fold a dress shirt.


It can be your kitchen table or your bed or the floor, but get on a flat surface.


First thing I do is I get myself a one by one piece of cardboard for my folding.


Now, I'll show you what to do with that in a minute.


I want to make sure all the buttons are done up.


This is a good time to check and make sure the shirt indeed has all its buttons and this one does.


Okay, I'm going to lay this exactly on here where we want it, and kind of hold on a little bit.


When it starts to come up on the wax paper you just kind of press it down a little more.


Wow, I haven't had one work that easily ever, and that's in front of the camera.


Okay, we're going to show you what this looks like.


We flipped it, and now we can put the shelf back, like that.


There was a raw cracker that I tried recently, and it was kind of a crepe, and it had oil in it, and it's just not my preference.


So, if that doesn't bother you, some of us are very sensitive to oils.


When I consume oils, I try to have them in the food that they're in.


So that would be an avocado, or nuts, or a coconut, but separated oils have to be really careful with for me personally.


So, look at how beautiful this is without any oil at all.


And of course we used the coconut butter that was a lot of the oil.


We have nuts in there, and we have the flax, and that kept it together beautifully.


And now we're going to go over to the dehydrator.


Now, here's the part where we're going to peel it back, and what I'm letting the cracker known here is that I need him to let go.


Doing a little spiritual work on my cracker.


And there we go; it's coming off nicely.


Okay, I'm giving my speech with my note cards.


Holding the note card or the paper in front of your face.


You can't hold that in front of your face.


I can't build a relationship with you if I can't see your face.


Another thing, you've got to remember to breathe like I talked about last time, or you'll be up here giving your speech and I'll be so focused on your papers that I won't listen to you.


Okay, hold your note cards, use your note cards, keep them down here.


And something else that's really important, and I see this a lot with note cards.


You drop your note cards, you lose your place, never ever apologize.


Never, ever in the middle of your speech tell me what a bad job you're doing or how bad I must think you are, or how sorry you are, because none of that's true.


All you have to say is, excuse me just a minute, and if you're funny you can make a joke.


We're going to talk about note cards people.


So note cards are a really important tool, but keep them organized.


Keep them out of your face, and maybe you even put your hands down so that I don't see you shaking.


Note cards are a great thing to use, and most people prefer small cards for note cards.


But a lot of people like to work straight off a piece of paper off of their outline.


Now there's a few problems with note cards, and I want to warn you about them.


You might drop them, and then what happens, you're already nervous, you're scrambling, you're scrambling, okay, okay, okay, I got it.


Now we're going to go over, the best time to exercise.


Now there's so many studies telling you different things about different times, about eating different meals and what's going to be best for different people.


I just want you to focus on you, what's good for you.


If you're a morning person, exercise in the morning, if you're a night person, you get a big kick at night, exercise at night.


We have 2 different receipts to show you a peanut butter fudge pie and a peanut butter meringue pie.


The peanut butter fudge pie is made with a cream cheese peanut butter filling and the peanut butter meringue pie is made with a peanut butter and pudding filling and topped with a nice meringue.


The first pie we would be making today is a peanut butter fudge pie it has a creamy peanut butter filling, a fudgy layer of chocolate ganache and a crunchy graham cracker crust.


Let's get our ingredients together to make sure we have everything we need.


For the graham cracker crust we will be using 1 1/2 cups of ground up graham crackers, this 1 1/2 cups is also 1 package of the graham crackers ground up or 5 ounces if you want to weigh it.


You can buy it ground up or you can buy it the cracker form.


1/4 cup of sugar and 1/3 cup of margarine.


For the ganache layer we are going to use a ganache layer and a ganache topping we are using 8 ounces of the semi sweet chocolate and a 1/2 cup of cream.


For the peanut butter cream mixture we are using a cup of confectioner's sugar, 1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter I'm using the natural type peanut butter, a teaspoon of vanilla, 8 ounces of cream cheese you can use the creamy cream cheese or you can use the block style both would work fine and 1 cup of whipping cream.


At this point we're talking about securing the artwork to the thermographic paper.


I personally glove up when I do this because of the purple ink seems just to get everywhere.


And we have two choices that we can use.


We can use one, a ball point pen or we can use a mechanical pencil.


The ball point pen is usually better because you can press harder and it gets a better transfer on the hand drawing of these stencils.


But now the mechanical pencil is a finer type.


And in this particular case, that is what we need.


So I'm going to use the mechanical pencil on this particular one.


I'm going to press hard and I'm going to get the nice crisp detail.


And I'm going to show you how to do that.


So at this point, I got gloves on, I've got the thermograph paper cut to size.


I've got the customer's artwork that I have positioned vertically as opposed to horizontally.


So I'm going to secure it to the paper here by doing this.


Using some surgical tape and you don't want the image to shift around because you don't want any ghosting of the images.


As you can see, some of this line work here is very detailed and very defined.


And you know it's a very simple piece, but there's no room for error with this.


So what we do is we secure the artwork to here using surgical tape.


There is a difference between real goals and fake goals.


In order to come across as passionate about your platform you must have real goals.


An example of an empty goal would be, I plan to make a difference in the lives of children because they are our future.


And what I've just demonstrated does not tell anyone that I know anything about my platform, so let me rephrase it in a more specific way.


I plan to help the children of this neighborhood who are experiencing neglect and poverty because I've been there myself.


I want to form an after school program that involves at risk teens be able to overcome their differences so that we can bridge the gaps of our society and our future.


Be confident about your goals and let them know that this is something that you want to do.


Be confident about your goals and state specifically how you plan to reach those goals.


Often, clients tell me they get really sore in their wrists, so I'm going to at least teach you some tricks of the trade to keep the energy focused on the forearms and out of the wrists, when you're balancing on the hands, which is what's going to happen in our next frames.


That's the way to stay out of the wrists.


So, spreading the fingers wide, root down with the first knuckle of the first finger, and she's already doing that, as opposed to; can you show them the opposite of that, yeah, a lifted knuckle and closed fingers even.


That puts a lot of pressure in the wrist, so spread it long, and let that energy radiate out through, radiate out through the fingertips, and then press into the floor like you're pushing the floor down with the fingertips.


Now, she's got a real firm hold on the forearms.


The other thing is to keep the shoulder directly above the wrist, not forward from it.


When she moves the weight forward that puts a lot more stress on the wrists, so we'll come back, and all of your arm bouncing will generally have, will bend the elbow to keep this crease at a ninety degree angle, so when we come forward bending the elbow; stop right there, so you can see there's a ninety degree angle here and through the shoulder.


They're--they differ in thickness and size.


I like to actually these smaller ones that are even thicker 'cause I don't like--sometimes, when you pick a string, they'll bend, these don't.


These might bend, have a little more give in 'em, but whatever--basically, whatever you feel most comfortable with.


And we're also going to need a couple of sheets of notebook paper and a pen, and if you have a music stand handy, that would be good, too.


So now we're going to go into a little bit of knowledge about the parts and terminology of the guitar.


So the first thing we're going to do is talk about some of the things you're going to need.


Obviously, you're going to need a guitar.


And this little lesson isn't specific really to electric or acoustic guitar, so either is fine.


Some things will, as far as the equipment we're using might apply to electric guitar, but the lesson itself it can be done on electric or acoustic.


I'm using a couple of cables, one to go from my guitar to my tuner and one to go from my tuner to my amp, so we need two cables if you're using a tuner, one if you're not, and electric tuner and an amplifier.


And I like to use picks so we're gonna--the lesson today involves guitar picks and there's all kinds of different guitar picks.


If you're grilling and some of your meat juices or in our case brochette oil drips on your grill and you've got a little fire starting, it's always wise to keep a spray bottle of clean water.


You just give it a couple of sprays, and make sure it's nice and clean.


And in addition to that, always, always have nearby your trusty fire extinguisher.


In this segment we are going to cover the overhead serve and this is very similar to a tennis serve or an overhead smash.


So the key here is you have your racquet in an already ready position like this and you just toss it up and you smash it.


So it's a pretty good serve, the good news about it is that you are able to really drill the ball at your opponent and a lot of people if you hit the ball at an angle about their shoulder height with a lot of pace, they have a hard time with it.


The thing to be careful about with an overhead serve though is if you hit it too hard you're not able to get positioned for the next shot.


So just to demonstrate again if you want to just hit it like that, you are going to swing and hit it so we're going to show another angle of this serve so you can just kind of get a feel for the mechanics.


So as you can see I'm at an open angle with the ball and I just toss the ball and smash it so in the next segment we are going to cover what it looks like from the front and maybe a little bit from the side.


To groom your parrot remember that it needs to be bathed.


Parrots need to be bathed in the way that they enjoy being bathed more than the way you want to do it.


If they're not and you handle your bird you'll be sorry.


Because they can puncture your skin very easily with their toenails.


This little fellow right here had toenails so sharp as a tiny baby that I almost dreaded to take him out and hand feed him.


But his toenails now are long enough he can grip and watch that you don't; when you're clipping their toenails that you don't go into the quick because you can make them bleed, it also hurts the bird and then they get where they don't like you to, to handle them.


A lot of people use clippers, I like to use a Dremel because a Dremel will grind them down and you've got control of how short you actually go to grind down the toenails.


Some parrots love to get in the sink with running water.


Other parrots want to get in the shower with you.


And some just like to be misted or sprayed with a misting bottle.


The water should be warm not cold, not hot.


And then they will preen their feathers to put them in the shape that they need to be in. But also you need to pay attention to their beak.


Their beaks sometimes get soiled and scaly, and these bathes don't necessarily clean them up.


I like to every now and then take just regular vegetable oil on a paper towel and wipe their beaks.


It is important to wake up and have some water or sports drink so that you go into your race properly hydrated because I guarantee you after your race, you might be dehydrated.


So it is good to start out head of the game and hopefully if you fuel properly, you will end your race hydrated and excited from your big win.


You've waited for this, you've trained and now you are here.


What do you do when that alarm goes off.


The first thing you need to think about before you go into any race is your nutrition.
