Ex-Secret Service Agent: Hillary Clinton is a fraud.
Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino, who served on the presidential protection detail
during the Clinton administration, blames the Clintons for America's loss of confidence
in government.
Bongino said Hillary Clinton is a "fraud" during an appearance earlier this week on
Tucker Carlson Tonight, and –– based on his personal experience working for the Clintons
— he describes her as one of the most "deceptive and manipulative" people he'd ever met.
He butted heads with Democratic strategist Robin Biro on the issue, who claimed that
the former first lady and secretary of state had a "warm" personality.

They're Done: NFL Ratings Rocked After Thanksgiving, TV Networks Lose $500 Million Dollars From Kaep - Duration: 8:48.
They're Done: NFL Ratings Rocked After Thanksgiving, TV Networks Lose $500 Million Dollars From
Kaepernick Stunt.
As we have been reporting for months now, the NFL is in deep trouble.
And just now it's starting to become apparent as to how deep the divide with the fans has
really become.
On Thanksgiving Day, the New York Giants played the Washington Redskins.
And although the yearly NFL Thanksgiving day game has turned into an American past time
which takes place after the famed Thanksgiving feast, not many fans were in the mood to put
up with the tantrums the elite, ball-tossing millionaires have been throwing this year.
In fact, fans were so upset that the Thanksgiving Day game ratings fell another 10% on the spot.
The national anthem protests continued couldn't even be put on the back burner during Thanksgiving
in spite of the severe drop in ratings and the huge amount of revenue loss the NFL has
been taking since the protests escalated earlier in the season.
The national anthem protests have hit the NFL so hard, to the tune of over $500 million
in losses, that it has, in fact, turned the league into one of the most divisive brands
in the entire country.
But regretfully enough, even though the stats don't lie, apparently New York Giants defensive
end, Olivier Vernon, didn't get the memo because he was the only player to take a knee
during the national anthem in Washington.
But what was even more offensive about his actions was that the man singing the national
anthem was a Master Sergeant in the United States Army.
What does he care?
He still gets his payday, even though the NFL is bleeding revenue dollars like a sailor
on shore leave.
Would this be a great time for a new startup like the XFL?
Via Variety:
'This Was the XFL' Director on Vince McMahon, Concussions and Whether League Could Make
a Comeback
When the XFL kicked off its first and only football season on NBC in 2000, it did so
to a Nielsen ratings more than double what the broadcaster had promised advertisers.
By the time that season ended, the league was posting record lows for its Saturday-night
time period.
A partnership between NBC and the WWE, the XFL is largely remembered as the most significant
failure of the two men who spearheaded it — WWE founder Vince McMahon and longtime
NBC Sports President Dick Ebersol.
Taking its cues from McMahon's wrestling operation, the league billed itself as a more
violent, more titillating, more fun alternative to the NFL.
But with a hastily thrown together football operation and teams composed of NFL cast-offs,
the quality of play was too terrible to sustain viewers' initial curiosity.
"This Was the XFL," a documentary premiering Thursday night as part of ESPN's "30 for
30" series, argues that, despite its many failings, the XFL changed the way that sports
was broadcast, introducing innovations in marketing and production that the NFL and
other leagues, and their broadcast partners now employ regularly.
It is also an exploration of the relationship between Ebersol and McMahon, two of the most
successful and controversial broadcasters of their generation.
The film is directed by Charlie Ebersol — Dick Ebersol's son and president of TV production
company The Company.
"The one thing that my dad and Vince had never spoken about was XFL," Charlie Ebersol
says.
"When the idea got run by me, I said to ESPN, 'This is great, but the film I want
to make is a love story between these guys over 15 years.'"
Charlie Ebersol spoke with Variety about the XFL's failures, its successes, and the challenges
of making a movie about his father and his father's best friend.
How did your dad feel about the fact that you were going to make a movie about what
was, essentially, the biggest failure of his career?
I've done a handful of documentaries that have done okay, with festivals and HBO and
et cetera.
And he had a sense of what I did.
So he called Vince, and they had about an hour-long conversation about doing it, and
they were definitely trepidatious.
But once they commit to things, they go all the way in.
They were making phone calls for me.
Vince called Jesse Ventura.
A lot of the stuff that came together was a function of the two of them committing fully
to doing it.
Afterward, when I showed it to them, they both said "This is the autopsy that the
XFL needed."
I like that they refer to it like a murder victim.
How did Bob Costas come in?
He plays like the villain of the movie.
You couldn't make the film without Costas.
First of all, you shouldn't make any movie without Bob Costas.
He's the greatest personality of all time.
I did a documentary on Africa and I seriously considered putting him in there as mid-film
comic relief.
He's wonderful in that sense.
Also, I wanted a critical voice, and I wanted a critical voice that wasn't mean-spirited.
A lot of people had a bone to pick with Vince and my father, especially TV critics.
So there were a lot of people I could have gone to who wrote perfectly horrible things
about the XFL.
But Bob, who's a very good friend of my dad and Vince, could come in and comment and
be funny and not come off as a vindictive guy.
Because you are your father's son, you can tell the story from a point of view that another
director might not get at, but do you also expose yourself to potential criticism that
you're being a homer for your dad?
Are you suggesting that there are people on the internet or in the press that are going
to take a negative view of me, my father, or Vince McMahon?
That's such an unconventional idea.
Can you give me any example ever of anyone going on the internet and saying anything
negative about those people?
I just don't think there's any precedent for it.
I worked really hard in the film to try to create a balanced view.
That's why Costas is in there and Peter King, guys who are sort of the arbiters of
decency.
And look, if you want to see negativity about the XFL, just Google "XFL."
The first 700 news hits prior to my film coming out were "Failure!
Failure!
This is a stain on Dick Ebersol and Vince McMahon's record!"
I just didn't feel the need to do that in the film.
I also think that people conveniently ignore the fact that the NFL and the NBA and Major
League Baseball and Fox and CBS and ABC just lifted all the technologies and techniques
that worked about the XFL, and still rolled their eyes about the XFL's viability.
At the end of the film, your dad and Vince are joshing about trying to revive the XFL.
How serious are they being?
Look, when I interviewed Jerry Jones for the film, he brought it up.
And when I interviewed Vince, he brought it up.
My dad's not going to do it.
He's really, really happily retired.
Vince is still on the road three days a week producing 17 pay-per-views and 104 "Monday
Night Raws" and "Smackdowns" a year.
He's a madman.
If Vince has put enough thought into it, I never question the validity, because you never
know when he's going to walk into the press room and announce that he's doing it.
Costas talks about this in the film, but the league was sold as being more violent than
the NFL, and now you can't really have a non-fan conversation about football without
talking about concussions.
Were you concerned about how that would flavor the story you were telling?
No, and the reason I didn't think that is because during the making of the movie the
UFC sold for $4 billion.
Look, the media plays an important role, but I think the media is an echo chamber to a
huge degree.
So the concussion story and the CTE story, which, by the way, permeated not just football
but also UFC and all these other sports, I think these stories are similar to the outrage
that the press had over things that Donald Trump was saying that, if you really went
into his voting group, they didn't care that he was saying.
Concussions are real and scary and the NFL does have a responsibility to their players.
But if you look at the playoff ratings, clearly the public isn't really that upset about
it.
What did your dad say when you showed him the movie?
The only thing scarier than interviewing my father and Vince was I showed it to them together.
At the end of the film, the only note I got was from a WWE exec on cutting back something
that was critical of Vince, and Vince cut the person off and said, "No, first of all,
we're not giving notes, and second, you should feel confident about putting that in
because that's what really happened."
I was mesmerized by that.
All through my life, I've seen my dad and Vince note everything to death.
I did a documentary about schools in Africa and got 15 pages of notes from my father.
I was expecting notes.
I was not expecting them to defend the parts of the film that I was most nervous to show
them.
What do you think about this?

051 Carla & Hanna - Duration: 15:41.
Good morning! Aren't you going to have breakfast with us?
I actually wanted to visit two friends of mine with Leonard - Hanna Novak and Isabell Brandner
Is it possible you're trying to play matchmaker with your brother?
Actually, no. But one never knows!
Would you guys have any objection if I joined you? I promised Isabell I would come by.
Actually, we were just about to leave
Good, then I'll hurry, all right?
No problem. We'll wait.
Leonard, please! Cécile can't possibly be allowed to come with us!
== And how am I supposed to explain that to her? == Think of something, please!
Let's all just go there first
Maybe I can talk Cécile into going for a walk or something. Then you'll at least have SOME time with Hanna.
Oh right, that will for sure be super relaxing, when you guys could return at any moment!
Oh, please, I've been looking so forward to seeing Hanna
So...
... we can go. I hope you haven't had to wait too long.
No problem. I still have to go get my purse anyway.
Well...
Everything all right?
Listen, uhm... don't take offense, but would you have anything against my going alone with Carla to see Hanna?
Uh... but why?
It's on account of the whole kidnapping thing. Carla is pretty upset, and...
... I'd just like to talk to her on the drive there
Aha
I just don't want her to keep it all bottled up inside
Yeah, sure, all right. Uhm, yeah, I'll call Isabell and tell her I'm not coming
And you're really not mad?
No, no. Not a problem.
I get it
Yes, the aunties are cuddling with each other
Aunties?
Yes. And I'm sure they want to be alone now, too. Hm?
But you wanted to go for a walk anyhow, right? No? You wanna come along?
Uhm...
== Yes, I was just about to suggest the same thing myself. == Hahaha.
True it is. Here, I'll take her off your hands.
Okay
So...
So... we go walking. Do you understand English yet?
== Well, it seems to be love at first sight. == I can relate to that.
Stop it! NO!!
HELP!! Is there no one here?!
Vanessa, what is this scene?! CUT IT OUT!!
== Tell me what... STOP IT!! == HELP! Haha.
== Stop it... LET ME THROUGH!! == Hahaha, HELP!!
STOP IT! Stop doing this!! STOP!!
LEAVE ME ALONE!!
What is going on here?!
Sshhh, Vanessa, calm down. We're here.
When is it that you have to leave?
Mmm... first thing tomorrow morning. And I'm already looking so forward to it.
Aha
Yes, you should see what a fantastic hotel. It's just opened.
With a wellness spa and massages...
Well, then I'm happy for you. And I wish you lots of fun with the Belgian masseuses.
Why Belgian?
I thought your meeting was in Bruges?
== It IS. == Mhm...?
Except, I'M not going to be there. But only you and I know that.
Even Bernd thinks I'm going to Belgium
But I'm going to spend the weekend with my sweetheart
A new hotel, hardly any guests... I'll be able to really relax and enjoy the time with her, hmmmm!
No...!
Yesss!
== Seriously? == Seriously.
Mr...Mr. Schneider had been looking at me so strangely... and uh...
... then, when I went into the bathroom, he followed me
== This is totally outrageous, SHE was the one who... == PLEASE.
You'll have your say in a moment
Yes?
Uhm... I found that pretty odd, and so I asked if he was looking for somebody
And uh...then he demanded that I...
Sandra Müller came up to me and said she'd heard calls for help coming from the bathroom. So of course I went in.
That is absolutely not true!!
PLEASE!
And you all go to your classrooms
Folks?
Do you want to press charges?
All right, then come to my office... at 10:00 tomorrow
And we'll sort out this matter. Calmly.
You too
Go on home, I'm not going to do anything for the moment
But... but I have a class right now
Under these circumstances, it's better if I take that over for you
Professor Albrecht, this number Vanessa von Beyenbach is pulling here is vicious slander!
Tomorrow! At 10:00, Mr. Schneider.
=== Bitch--! == Come, come on!
== Hehehe. == Hehehehe.
Take a day off for once, Carla, you can't always just work
What can I do? Work has priority.
At least take a little time for yourself in Bruges. It's an enchanting city.
Bruges really is beautiful
== And drive carefully. == Of course.
== Bye. == Bye.
Ms. Jones, do you have a moment for me?
Yes, of course
Uh, if anyone calls - and if it's important - then give them Dr. Gerhart's number
Otherwise put everyone off until Monday. I'm shutting off my cellphone.
You see? That's exactly the reason I've never gotten myself one of those things.
I will be reachable, though. They just need to understand that I want two days of peace and quiet.
== Oh, you should be allowed that. == Yes, I'm treating myself to a bit of luxury. A wellness hotel, brand new.
Oh, good for you! Too bad for me.
Well, I had thought we would go over a few questions regarding your strategy paper
== It...it's no problem to postpone it until you're back. == I could also leave a bit later.
Only, since I haven't had breakfast yet... it would be possible to combine the discussion with a brunch, wouldn't it...?
Well, I can't very well let you starve
What would you think of Papillon? I hear you can get a magnificent breakfast there.
== Wonderful, agreed! == Good, then one brief moment and we'll meet in the lobby, all right?
== Sure. == Good.
Well, I have no idea why Robin should bother to keep studying architecture. I mean, these plans are awesome!
== Coco's plan isn't bad, though, either. == Where is it anyway?
== What? == The plan...?
Oh. No, she just sort of described it to me, how she pictured it.
Ah, just described it... Well, what kind of ideas did she have?
She wants it all to be more kinda 70's-like
And she has the hotter body. Come on, cool the hormones!
Robin is the perfect man here, when it comes to redesigning
Hey, Lars! Everything all right?
No!
Felix told me. Vanessa. Pretty vile what she's trying to do.
Yeah, I had actually thought maybe she would drop the idea ... after Nico and I found that tape
Oh, you know Vanessa! Once she sets her mind to something...
Yeah, but this number really outdoes anything she's ever done before. And all because you dumped her?
Yeah... sure looks that way
But trying to hang an attempted rape on me...
That practically borders on a psychological problem
Are you going to tell the dean that you guys had a fling?
At any rate, it would be more credible than if you keep pretending like nothing ever happened
Thanks for your advice, guys. I'll manage.
I have to go to the university now anyway. I'd be happy to attest to the fact that Vanessa was constantly hitting on you.
That's nice, but... I'll wait until I see how the meeting goes
All right then. We'll see each other soon.
== Good luck. == Thanks, I can use it.
I always knew you had it on the ball! But this number you pulled with Schneider, that was really killer awesome!
STOP, I'm gonna turn red
== Sooo, two Proseccos for the ladies. == Oh.
== Thank you very much. == You're welcome. == Grazie.
To the stupid look on his face - I'd sacrifice a blouse for that again, any day
== Hello, my angel. == Oh.
Hi, Dad. This is Sandra, a friend from the university - my father.
== Nice to meet you! == Same here. Hello.
What's this story about a blouse?
Oh, there's this guy at the university
And uh, he's a total loser, and he's been after me, and I gave him the total brush-off today
Yeah, and the blouse? I mean, what does that have to do with it?
Well yeah, I intentionally bumped him, today, in the cafeteria, with a glass of orange juice in my hand
The juice sloshed onto her blouse
Exactly! And, uh, then naturally, I completely raked him over the coals in front of everybody, and...
... I think he's going to leave me alone from now on
Aha, right. And other than that? Everything good at school?
== Great. == Mhm.
Well good! You guys will excuse me?
Yeah, sure. Ohh!
He's nice, your father
== Hmh! Don't EVEN! == Really.
How come you don't tell him what your evil professor did?
You heard what the dean said about bringing charges and calling in the police
My father would do that in an INSTANT
Well so?
I think it will be enough if Lars gets kicked out of the university. It doesn't have to come to a criminal charge.
Ooohhh. How considerate of you.
To your very big heart, Vanessa!
Yes, I really do have one
Wow! You're truly crazy.
Good day!
What can I do for you?
== We had a reservation for the name of "von Lahnst--" == For NOVAK.
== Hanna Novak == A double room?
== Yes! == Yes!
== If you would please fill this out with your name and signature. == Sure.
What do we want to do first? Turkish bath or a whole body peel?
== Room 411, and have a nice stay. == Thank you.
Thanks!
Or, even better, first we check and see if the bed is big enough
== Ah. == ... and I carry you over the threshold.
Carla, what are people to think?!
Naturally, no prying eyes allowed!
Wellness-Hotel Caracalla?
Hello, Sylvia Jones here, I had a reservation for today
Unfortunately I'll be coming a bit later than I'd planned and I'd like to push back my shiatsu appointment
== What was the name, please? == Jones, Sylvia Jones
And?
She's still in there
Appears to be a pretty thorough briefing
I'm sure overflowing with tears
Professor Albrecht is okay. He... he first has to get a detailed picture. He'll do the same with you.
Felix, this isn't some complaint about getting an unfair grade!
Sexual assault... that'll make them nervous! And I can understand that.
Yes, of course, but you're innocent! So, stay calm, describe what happened, and don't let yourself be intimidated, okay?
Thanks
== Goodbye, Professor Albrecht. == Goodbye.
Mr. Schneider, please
Now YOU'RE up!
I'm aware that serious suspicions hang over me. But it's one person's word against another.
Innocent until proven guilty
The fact that Vanessa von Beyenbach doesn't want to bring charges against you for sexual assault - that did puzzle me
I ended the affair, so why should I accost her in the bathroom like that?
Starting a relationship with a student - that was a mistake. Hold that against me!
== And I'll bear the consequences. But THIS...! == Mr. Schneider, we aren't a criminal court.
Rest assured that the faculty board will discuss it in an objective and fair manner
Beware the profession you choose, Mr. Schneider!
Were you there, Ms. Müller?
Do you want to testify, as a witness, regarding my alleged attack?
[Perverse professors, keep out!]
Mhmmm... massage!
I can hardly wait. Although... no masseuse can outperform you, anyway.
== Ahaha! == Hahaha. Good save.
I'm really looking forward to it, too
Oh, holy shit! What is SHE doing here?!
The mailing! Last week there was an advertising brochure from the hotel in our company mail.
== Watch out! == That's how I first found out about it!
Yes, my sister evidently, too. That stupid shrew, she always has to ruin my fun!
We're leaving!
== Nonsense! == Right now!
NO! Don't blow things out of proportion! We'll just enjoy ourselves in our room.
And outside the room we'll act like good friends, I've gotten used to that by now
Bernd thinks I'm in Bruges. My father, too. Even Sylvia Jones overheard that.
I have no desire for inconvenient questions on Monday!
== And I have no more desire for these panic attacks! == Hanna, please!
== Well it's always the SAME, something always interferes! == Can I help that?!
Yes, you can think of a good excuse for Monday, instead of spoiling our weekend!
Oh, excuse ME! Of course I'll be happy to let you stay here by yourself!
The room and all the wellness stuff is paid for. I wish you a pleasant time!
Carla, don't be so bitchy!!

Sally Hansen Salon Chrome Holographic Kit | TakiyahLouise - Duration: 2:52.
Hi, I'm Takiyah Louise.
Thanks for clicking though to view this video of me doing my nails with the Sally Hansen
Salon Chrome Holographic Kit.
This is what the holographic kit looks like packaged together.
I purchased mine from Ulta Beauty for $24.99.
This kit includes the base color & top coat.The other kits retail for $15.99 & you need to
purchase the base color & top coat separately.
Lets get started!
First, I apply my Unt Ready For Takeoff Peel Off Basecoat.
Then, I apply 2 Coats of Sally Hansen's Blacky-O nail polish.
The first coats coverage is a little thin to start but the second coat covers completely.
I make sure to try clean up any any mistakes along the way with an acetone dipped q-tip.
I apply the second coat of Blacky-O nail polish & make sure to let it dry for just 2-3 minutes
because the Holographic Chrome Powder needs a little something to stick to.
I use the dual ended Eye Shadow Applicator by Face Secrets that I got from Sally's
Beauty Supply & pick up a tiny bit of Holographic Chrome powder & gently dab it across my still
damp nail.
When you start with a little it's easier to control.
The kit comes with one small black applicator but I chose not to use it this time around.
Here's a tip if you're using a peel off base coat like I am : you'll want to be
extra careful not to rub too hard on the nail or the polish may bunch up like mine did momentarily.
Next, I apply a layer of the Sally Hanson Salon Chrome Special Effect Top Coat.
You only need a thin layer so you'll want to really wipe your brush on the bottle so
the product doesn't pool on your nails.
After about 5 minutes of drytime you can use a little fan brush &/or acetone dipped q-tip
to remove the excess powder around your nail.
Finish up with the Sally Hansen Miracle Gel Top Coat to seal your fresh new set of holographic
nails & prepare to be amazed at the dazzling rainbow effect that I found to intensify in
indirect light.
And, that's it for now!
As always, I hope you enjoyed this video.

(upbeat music)
- I can ride with you?
- Yep.
- Oh, hey guys.
Hey guys, I've been meaning to ask you,
I've been doing a podcast.
It's called West Wings, we eat wings
and we watch The West Wing. (laughs)
It's gonna be super easy.
You guys wanna be guests?
- You go ahead, I'll catch up.
- That's weird, but okay.
- Did you forget something?
- Grant, hear the words that I say to you.
(ominous music)
Your podcast will fail.
- What?
(laughs)
Hey, fuck you man.
- No,
fuck you.
Fuck you for thinking that this world need another podcast.
And that people you know should listen to it.
It's a bad idea and a waste of time.
- It's not a bad idea.
It's a good creative outlet.
- A creative outlet.
Is that what you call an hour and a half
of unedited, bad audio from your living room?
- Yeah, why not?
- Do you think your clever
for thinking to review a television show?
It probably felt nice when you realized
there was a built-in structure, an episode of the show
was an episode of your podcast.
This has been done a million times, Grant.
It's a bad idea, and your podcast will fail.
- Who cares, it's just for fun.
- It's not fun for me.
It's not fun for anyone, Grant.
- Well - What would you say
is the value of it, hm?
- I think it would be fun to
hang out with my friends
and watch my favorite show and eat wings.
There's nothing wrong with that.
- There isn't.
So why don't you just do that?
Why does it have to be a podcast?
- Because at the end I'll have created something.
- Created what though?
A half-baked take on the subtleties of Joshua Malina's
performance while you suck the wing fat from your teeth?
No one wants to listen to that.
- I think someone might.
- Oh the hubris.
You think your personality is so sparkling?
That people want to listen to thousands of hours
of you meandering off topic?
Of your guests describing your apartment
before the show even starts?
Of your roommate coming home, and being like 'Sorry'?
Of you calling in a friend from New York who's super funny
even though you don't have the technology to make that work.
Admit it.
- Admit what?
- Admit that deep down, you know that this is a complete
waste of time.
- I already bought the gear.
- Return it.
And then spend the money on literally anything else.
- No! No! It's fun.
It's fun.
It's fun.
I don't know why you're saying this, you're supposed
to be my friend.
- I am your friend.
I'm the only friend you have left,
and this is what friends do, they call each other out
on their shit, and this is the worst kind of shit there is.
Your podcast will fail.
- But I love the West Wing.
- Zach, what's the hold up?
We gotta record a new episode of West Wings and Wings.
Our podcast comparing the two shows,
Wings and the West Wing.
- What the fuck?
- Wait, this is actually gonna be good though.
Hi, it's Zach from College Humor.
Thanks for watching.

>>THIS WEEK, SENATE REPUBLICANS ARE PLANNING TO HOLD A VOTE ON
THEIR TAX REFORM BILL.
IT'S BEEN A BIT SINCE WE HAD A SHOW SO WHY
DON'T WE SEE WHAT THE CHANCES ARE OF GETTING THAT PASSED.
THERE IS A NEW CBO REPORT AND THERE HAD BEEN A FEW NONPARTISAN
ANALYSES OF THE TAX BILL, IT'S JUST GETTING WORSE AND WORSE.
TURNS OUT IT WILL ULTIMATELY RAISE TAXES BY 2027 ON MORE THAN
HALF THE COUNTRY.
THIS TAX CUT BILL WILL RAISE TAXES ON HALF OF
YOU, AT THE VERY LEAST, WATCHING THIS VIDEO, POSSIBLY MORE.
SPECIFICALLY --
>>REMEMBER, THIS IS A TAX CUT BILL --
>>SO IF YOU MAKE MORE THAN THAT YOU MIGHT AT LEAST BREAK EVEN
FOR A WHILE.
THE COUNTRY WILL PROBABLY END UP GOING BANKRUPT
BUT YOU WILL BE OKAY FOR A BIT.
IF HOWEVER YOU MAKE AS MUCH AS
THE VAST MAJORITY OF THIS COUNTRY DOES, YOU WILL BE
SCREWED IN JUST A FEW YEARS.
HOWEVER --
>>I WASN'T REALLY DOUBTING THAT FROM THE BEGINNING.
>>THIS IS AMAZING, THIS IS THE MOST LITERAL WEALTH
REDISTRIBUTION I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFETIME OF COVERING
POLITICS, BUT THEY ARE REDISTRIBUTING THE WEALTH FROM
THE POOR AND THE CLASS TO THE TOP.
IT'S THE MOST BRAZEN THING
EVER SEEN, AND THAT'S WHY THE STOCK MARKET IS BOOMING, AMONG
THE REASONS WHY, AND WHY A LOT OF THE CORPORATE CEOS AND
BACKERS, ETC., HAVEN'T BACKED AWAY FROM TRUMP.
IT DOESN'T
MATTER IF HE THOUGHT THERE WERE SOME GOOD PEOPLE ON THE NEO-NAZI
SIDE, ALL THE TERRIBLE THINGS HE'S DONE, HIS OBVIOUS,
OVER-THE-TOP INCOMPETENCE -- NOTHING MATTERS.
THEY ARE LIKE,
YES, THE MIDDLE CLASS, GIVE ME THEIR MONEY, I WANT TO
REDISTRIBUTE WEALTH.
THIS IS CLASS WARFARE.
RIGHT FROM THE
BEGINNING ANALYSTS SAID ONE THIRD OF THE MIDDLE CLASS WOULD
IMMEDIATELY GET TAX INCREASES, AND BY THE WAY, I SHOULD
APOLOGIZE -- THEY ALWAYS CALLED IT TAX REFORM, AND I SAID CALL
IT WHAT IT IS, IT ISN'T TAX REFORM, IT'S TAX CUTS FOR THE
RICH.
AND BY THE WAY, 80% OF THE CUTS GO TO THE TOP 1%.
80% TO
THE TOP 1%.
BUT IT TURNS OUT I WAS WRONG, IT ISN'T JUST TAX
CUTS, THERE IS ALSO TAX INCREASES, SO IT COULD
FAIRLY BE CALLED TAX REFORM.
>>OR JUST WEALTH REDISTRIBUTION.
>>THIS IS THE WAY IT WORKS.
MAINLY IT'S CORPORATIONS GETTING
A TAX CUT, FROM 35 TO 20%.
OR IF YOU RUN A BUSINESS THAT'S A
PASS-THROUGH BUSINESS LIKE DONALD TRUMP DOES YOU ARE
GETTING A MASSIVE TAX CUT.
IF YOU ARE ALREADY A
MULTIMILLIONAIRE OR BILLIONAIRE YOU GET A GIGANTIC TAX CUT IN
THE ESTATE TAX, ETC.
IN ORDER TO PAY FOR THAT, EVEN BEFORE YOU
GET INTO DEEP CUTS THEY WILL HAVE TO MAKE LATER TO SOCIAL
SECURITY, MEDICARE, MEDICAID, ETC., WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO?
NUMBER ONE, YOU WILL RUN UP A GIANT DEFICIT.
AT A MINIMUM IT
IS $1.5 TRILLION THEY WILL ADD TO THE DEFICIT.
REPUBLICANS
ADMIT THAT.
SO IF YOU ARE A REPUBLICAN AND YOU LIKE THIS
PLAN YOU ARE NEVER ALLOWED TO SAY YOU LIKE BALANCED BUDGETS.
YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT OBAMA PHONES?
THIS IS TRUMP YACHTS TO THE RICH AND CORPORATIONS.
>>THE YACHTS PROBABLY HAVE PHONES, TO BE FAIR.
>>THEY NEVER CARED ABOUT THE DEFICIT, IT WAS ALWAYS TO SERVE
THEIR RICH DONORS.
SECONDARILY, ONCE YOU GET PAST 10 YEARS, A
THIRD OF THE MIDDLE CLASS GETTING TAX INCREASES TO PAY FOR
TAX CUTS FOR THE RICH?
NOT NEARLY ENOUGH.
AFTER THE 10
YEARS, EVERYONE, ALMOST EVERYONE UNDER $75,000, AS JOHN
EXPLAINED, YOUR TAXES GO UP, YOUR INCOME AND YOUR SERVICES GO
DOWN, SO YOU HAVE TO BEAR THE BURDEN OF ALL THE CORPORATE TAX
CUTS AND THE TAX CUTS TO THE BILLIONAIRES.
IT'S INSANE.
THIS
IS THE GREATEST ROBBERY IN AMERICAN HISTORY.
IF YOU ARE ONE
OF THOSE FOLKS -- BY THE WAY WHETHER YOU ARE ON THE RIGHT OR
LEFT AND YOU THOUGHT THE SYSTEM WAS RIGGED, THIS IS EXACTLY HOW
IT IS RIGGED.
THEY HAVE PRIVATE FINANCING OF ELECTIONS, AND THEN
THE POLITICIANS WORK FOR THE PEOPLE WHO FINANCE THEIR
ELECTIONS, WHICH ARE PRIVATE INTERESTS.
DID YOU FINANCE THEIR
ELECTIONS?
NO, SO THEY DON'T WORK FOR YOU, THEY WORK FOR THE
PEOPLE WHO SIGN THEIR CHECKS.
THEY GO THANK YOU FOR THOSE
DONATIONS, NOW HERE ALL THE GOODIES YOU WANT.
THEN WE WILL
TURN AROUND AND GO, RIGGED?
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
PEOPLE ARE SAYING
THE POLITICIANS MIGHT WORK FOR THEIR DONORS?
WELL, WE DON'T
ALLOW THOSE PEOPLE ON TV, WE DON'T TALK ABOUT THAT ON TV
BECAUSE SOME OF THE MONEY GOES TO TV.
THIS IS HOW IT IS RIGGED,
AND THIS IS HOW THEY WILL ROB YOU BLIND.
THIS IS WHY WE NEED A
POLITICAL REVOLUTION, BECAUSE AS LONG AS THEY KEEP WORKING FOR
THEIR DONORS THEY WILL KEEP ON ROBBING YOU.
THIS IS JUST THE
MOST SPECTACULAR CASE OF IT.

How Henry Cavill Got In Shape To Play Superman - Duration: 4:50.
Henry Cavill's good looks and strong voice make him a natural fit to play Superman, but
getting into godlike shape to play the Last Son of Krypton is a superhuman feat in and
of itself.
How exactly did Cavill make himself faster than a speeding bullet and more powerful than
a locomotive?
Let's find out.
Exclusive gym
In order to turn himself into the Man of Steel, Henry Cavill turned to the exclusive Gym Jones
— an invite-only gym known for training athletes, military personnel — and the cast
of 300.
Gym Jones is not your warm and cozy neighborhood pilates studio.
The gym prides itself on having no televisions, no machines, no mirrors, and no comfortable
places to sit.
And apparently, their walls have seen a fair share of breakdowns — both physical and
psychological.
Pushing limits
Cavill's training regimen essentially pushed him into the realm of the superhuman.
He explained,
"I'm training two-and-a-half hours a day, pushing my body beyond its normal limits."
"It's not just a physical thing, it's a psychological thing as well."
Cavill recalled to ShortList one particularly excruciating moment with his trainer Mark
Twight, during which, Cavill said he was...
"...Doing some horrible rowing sprint thing, and I said, 'I can't do this Mark, I can't,
I'm done,' and he said, 'No you're not, don't listen to the lies.'
I kept on pulling and pulling until suddenly I realized I had finished."
Strong foundation
Getting big is one thing.
Staying Superman-sized, however, is an entirely different story.
"Yeah, well, ya know, gotta up the game every year."
Henry Cavill's twice-daily training sessions may have helped him get jacked, but once filming
actually started, that regimen went out the window.
Still, the Man of Steel was able to minimize the detrimental effects of a reduced workout
regimen, thanks to the ultra-solid muscle base he'd built.
Twight explained,
"Stable fitness requires a wide, solid foundation.
The deeper that foundation, the more stable that condition will be, and the easier it
is to maintain."
Catching Z's
Before Cavill even started training, Twight laid down one extremely important stipulation
— the actor needed to get nine to ten hours of sleep every single night for five months.
Twight explained to Muscle & Fitness,
"If you don't get the sleep, if you can't recover, then we can't continue with this
training and we won't achieve the objective."
"The HGH and testosterone secretion that happens during these deep-sleep cycles is super-important."
The tailpipe
Cavill's trainer highly recommends ending any Superman workout with something he likes
to call "the tailpipe," which was given its name because, as Twight says, quote, "when
you're done, it feels like you've been sucking on the tailpipe of a car."
Basically, you row 250 meters at full speed, then hold two 24 kilogram kettlebells in the
rack position, and repeat three times.
After that, your lungs will certainly feel the burn — but you'll be able to get more
out of each subsequent workout, thanks to the increased lung capacity and stamina.
Can't skip cardio
Many people looking to bulk up don't get in enough cardio, which does a lot more than
just make you faster than a speeding bullet.
Cavill's strength coach Michael Blevins explained to Men's Fitness,
"There's a misconception that cardio will negatively impact muscle.
A larger work capacity can allow you to train harder and longer.
Building muscle without conditioning is akin to having an impressive engine without a gas
tank — it's worthless."
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu
One of Cavill's favorite ways to stay in shape is by practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
However, the actor doesn't just dabble in the martial art.
He trains with the best.
Cavill frequently takes lessons from 10-time Jiu-Jitsu world champion Roger Gracie.
In an Instagram post, he wrote,
"My B.J.J. has slipped by the wayside a bit with my focus being on work but it's now time
to get back into it!
Such an enjoyable way to train."
Chow down
While training to become Superman, Cavill would generally eat between 3,500 and 5,000
calories per day, including regular post-workout shakes.
He explained,
"You've got to eat protein first, then a little bit of carbs.You've gotta keep your hunger
levels going."
"Unfortunately, Guinness is what I crave.
It's not ideal for six pack abs."
Getting 5,000 calories meant roughly six meals per day.
HenryCavill.org lists samples of the 3,500 and 5,000 calorie meal plans on their "Man
of Steel Workout and Diet" page.
Strength of character
Anyone can hire some skilled personal trainers and put down a bunch of calories to get ripped,
but playing Superman requires more than simply lifting heavy objects and exhibiting lightning
speed.
Being Superman requires inner strength.
Twight told Muscle & Fitness,
"Genuine accomplishment looks and feels different.
It cannot be faked.
By doing physically difficult things, by changing his body of his own will, Henry changed his
attitude and his bearing.
He looked huge.
He walked huge.
His attitude broadcast his physical capability."

Small Details You Completely Missed In Justice League - Duration: 7:58.
Justice League didn't hold back on any of the big moments.
We got a planet-threatening disaster, a team of superheroes determined to stop it, and
a good old-fashioned race between Superman and Flash.
Now that justice has been served on the big screen, we're doing justice to the little
moments and small details you may have missed in Justice League.
Spoilers ahead.
Crisis cameo
Early in the film, you may have caught that newspaper headline from the Metropolis Post
asking if a bunch of fallen heroes returned to their own planets.
What you may not have noticed was the smaller headline beside the main story—"Citywide
Crisis."
In the DC universe, a crisis is kind of a big deal, and DC doesn't throw the C-word
around casually.
It started in Justice League of America #21 with the Crisis on Earth One story line.
In the very next issue, there was Crisis on Earth Two.
Later, 1985's game-changing Crisis on Infinite Earths story arc put the entire multiverse
in peril.
Various crises even popped up after that, like Infinite Crisis, Identity Crisis, and
Final Crisis.
Basically, most of DC comics' history has been defined by crises, so name-dropping the
word in a DCEU movie is definitely a piece of fan service.
Smooth finish
For the majority of the movie, Cyborg had a notably different look than he does in the
comics.
Most versions of Cyborg in the comics have a smooth, aerodynamic exterior.
In Justice League, however, Cyborg had sharp edges sticking out everywhere, like a sentient
pile of cutlery.
But at the end of Justice League, Vic uses his growing control over the Mother Box tech
to give himself a makeover, ditching the RoboCop 2 vibe for a polished shell lifted straight
from the comics.
And while we're on the topic of Cyborg…
Booyah
Throughout Cyborg's run on Teen Titans and Teen Titans Go!, Sparky has had one distinguishing
catchphrase:
"Just practicing my Booyahs."
Boo Boo Boo Ya Ya Ya :Booyah."
It takes most of Justice League to get there, but right at the end he drops his big line,
giving at least some of the audience a reason to get out of their seats with a smile.
"Booyah"
If you've never come across Cyborg in any form before Justice League, you'd never know
what all the fuss was about.
"Booyah."
Mera
Amber Heard's character, Mera, didn't get a ton of screen time in Justice League, but
the costume designers definitely paid homage to Mera's comics wardrobe.
From her crown to her green-scaled armor, the likeness is exact.
Unfortunately, Justice League left the fate of Mera—and the nature of her relationship
with Aquaman—up in the air, but since Amber Heard is slated to star in the upcoming Aquaman
film, it looks like we'll get to see what finally happens with the future queen of Atlantis.
Red sky of doom
Leading up to the climax of Justice League, Steppenwolf takes the Mother Boxes back to
that little Russian town to start his Apokalips terraforming picnic, and the sky turns blood
red.
On the surface, that red sky is pure Apokalips—Steppenwolf's turning Earth into a version of his reddish
world, after all.
But under the surface, that red sky represents very DC-specific levels of doom.
Leading up to and during the Crisis on Infinite Earths storyline, DC comic artists started
coloring the skies red in their other comic books.
Most of the time, that was the only tie-in, which is the reason panels like this showed
up in comics like Swamp Thing.
So while those red skies made sense in the movie, they also represented DC's classic
way of saying, "Big things are going down."
Gorilla sign language
If you could give the Flash an iconic nemesis that wasn't another speedster, it would undoubtedly
be Gorilla Grodd, a hyper-intelligent ape who's got a hyper-personal vendetta against
the Flash.
Obviously, there weren't any giant gorillas in Justice League, but there was a mention
of that classic villain, albeit briefly.
When Bruce Wayne tracks down Allen, the super-speedster tries to convince Wayne that he's not really
the Flash, which leads to this line:
"Fluent in sign language.
Gorilla sign language."
For fans of the comics, it was immediately obvious that Allen was referring to Grodd,
the greatest gorilla in the DC universe.
At least, outside of Jackanapes, the Joker's adopted gorilla son.
But this was much more likely a sly reference to Grodd.
Cold resistance
In that same scene where Bruce Wayne first meets Barry Allen, there are a ton of things
going on in the background.
If you weren't paying attention to the Rick & Morty episode, you might have noticed something
else on one of those screens.
Look closely at the monitor directly behind and to the left of Ezra Miller, and pay attention
to the words at the top: Cold resistance.
Clearly, Barry has been testing his suit's tolerance for a chill, and one particular
Flash villain comes to mind when you think of cold—Captain Cold, aka Leonard Snart,
one of Flash's deadliest villains.
Does this mean that Flash has already defeated Captain Cold in this universe?
Or was he gearing up for a confrontation when Steppenwolf, uh, stepped on everyone's plans?
We just don't know!
Ace Chemicals
There were a good handful of Easter eggs emblazoned on the buildings throughout the film, one
of which was a small neon sign advertising Ace Chemicals.
And if you know your comics history, you know where this is going.
Yup, Ace Chemicals is the chemical plant where the Joker fell into a toxic vat and became,
well, the Joker.
It's gone by different names in different versions of the origin story—it was called
Axis Chemicals in 1989's Batman and, oddly, Monarch Playing Card Company in the original
run of Detective Comics—but Ace Chemicals is now DC canon for the name of the birthplace
of the Joker.
In Justice League, the sign is a blink-and-you'll-miss-it detail, but it's a nice touch on the world-building
of the movie.
Gotham gargoyle
Nothing says Batman like standing on a gargoyle high above Gotham on a dark, stormy night.
If you could put that image in a bottle, it'd smell like the inside of Batman's cowl, guaranteed.
So the shot of Batman on a Grim Reaper gargoyle in the Justice League Comic-Con trailer was
a definite crowd pleaser.
If you've done your homework and read all gazillion issues of Detective Comics, you
might recognize that Reaper image.
The shot is a direct homage to the cover of Detective Comics #682.
Ancient king
After Steppenwolf's first invasion of Earth, the three Mother Boxes were split among the
races.
The Atlanteans and Amazons built cool little shrines for their boxes, but the Men, being
men, decided that they couldn't trust anyone, so they buried theirs out in the woods.
IMDb only lists the main guy there as the "Ancient King of Men,", but there's one particular
ancient king of men who definitely plays a role in the DC universe: King Arthur.
Most of the mythological lore of King Arthur is kept intact in the DCU, so it's definitely
possible that he was the one who would be entrusted with the Mother Box after a war
that happened hundreds of years ago.
Super plaid
Superman is the worst at disguises.
But that's part of who he is, so we're all okay with that by now.
Then, somewhere along the line, live-action adaptations of Superman decided that he also
needed to add plaid to his repertoire of implausibly common wardrobe choices.
Maybe it's because he grew up on a farm in Kansas, and that's what farmer's wear?
Whatever the reason, ol' Clark's been putting on plaid whenever he visits the family farm
ever since 1978's Superman.
It's usually red, but not always.
It was white in Superman IV ["four"] and white again in Superman Returns.
Man of Steel got nervous and put his mom in plaid, but, oh, there's Clark wearing plaid
again in Batman versus Superman.
All the way in Metropolis too.
"Some of his shirts have some of the plaid in them as a little reminder of the midwestern
boy from Kansas."
And who can forget the CW's Smallville, a show that spent more on plaid than Sister
Act's entire budget for nun costumes?
Which brings us back to Justice League, where Clark heads out to the farm in Smallville
to talk to Lois.
In plaid.
Even though she totally knows who he is, and he can just wear the suit with the big S.
She just called him Clark in front of a dozen policemen while he was Supermanning the Super
Friends.
So why did he change to plaid?
Because it's an Easter egg.
Look, the bottom line is: if you ever see a guy anywhere wearing plaid, there's a 30%
chance it's Superman.

Ex-Secret Service Agent: Hillary Clinton is a fraud.
Former Secret Service agent Dan Bongino, who served on the presidential protection detail
during the Clinton administration, blames the Clintons for America's loss of confidence
in government.
Bongino said Hillary Clinton is a "fraud" during an appearance earlier this week on
Tucker Carlson Tonight, and –– based on his personal experience working for the Clintons
— he describes her as one of the most "deceptive and manipulative" people he'd ever met.
He butted heads with Democratic strategist Robin Biro on the issue, who claimed that
the former first lady and secretary of state had a "warm" personality.

They're Done: NFL Ratings Rocked After Thanksgiving, TV Networks Lose $500 Million Dollars From Kaep - Duration: 8:48.They're Done: NFL Ratings Rocked After Thanksgiving, TV Networks Lose $500 Million Dollars From
Kaepernick Stunt.
As we have been reporting for months now, the NFL is in deep trouble.
And just now it's starting to become apparent as to how deep the divide with the fans has
really become.
On Thanksgiving Day, the New York Giants played the Washington Redskins.
And although the yearly NFL Thanksgiving day game has turned into an American past time
which takes place after the famed Thanksgiving feast, not many fans were in the mood to put
up with the tantrums the elite, ball-tossing millionaires have been throwing this year.
In fact, fans were so upset that the Thanksgiving Day game ratings fell another 10% on the spot.
The national anthem protests continued couldn't even be put on the back burner during Thanksgiving
in spite of the severe drop in ratings and the huge amount of revenue loss the NFL has
been taking since the protests escalated earlier in the season.
The national anthem protests have hit the NFL so hard, to the tune of over $500 million
in losses, that it has, in fact, turned the league into one of the most divisive brands
in the entire country.
But regretfully enough, even though the stats don't lie, apparently New York Giants defensive
end, Olivier Vernon, didn't get the memo because he was the only player to take a knee
during the national anthem in Washington.
But what was even more offensive about his actions was that the man singing the national
anthem was a Master Sergeant in the United States Army.
What does he care?
He still gets his payday, even though the NFL is bleeding revenue dollars like a sailor
on shore leave.
Would this be a great time for a new startup like the XFL?
Via Variety:
'This Was the XFL' Director on Vince McMahon, Concussions and Whether League Could Make
a Comeback
When the XFL kicked off its first and only football season on NBC in 2000, it did so
to a Nielsen ratings more than double what the broadcaster had promised advertisers.
By the time that season ended, the league was posting record lows for its Saturday-night
time period.
A partnership between NBC and the WWE, the XFL is largely remembered as the most significant
failure of the two men who spearheaded it — WWE founder Vince McMahon and longtime
NBC Sports President Dick Ebersol.
Taking its cues from McMahon's wrestling operation, the league billed itself as a more
violent, more titillating, more fun alternative to the NFL.
But with a hastily thrown together football operation and teams composed of NFL cast-offs,
the quality of play was too terrible to sustain viewers' initial curiosity.
"This Was the XFL," a documentary premiering Thursday night as part of ESPN's "30 for
30" series, argues that, despite its many failings, the XFL changed the way that sports
was broadcast, introducing innovations in marketing and production that the NFL and
other leagues, and their broadcast partners now employ regularly.
It is also an exploration of the relationship between Ebersol and McMahon, two of the most
successful and controversial broadcasters of their generation.
The film is directed by Charlie Ebersol — Dick Ebersol's son and president of TV production
company The Company.
"The one thing that my dad and Vince had never spoken about was XFL," Charlie Ebersol
says.
"When the idea got run by me, I said to ESPN, 'This is great, but the film I want
to make is a love story between these guys over 15 years.'"
Charlie Ebersol spoke with Variety about the XFL's failures, its successes, and the challenges
of making a movie about his father and his father's best friend.
How did your dad feel about the fact that you were going to make a movie about what
was, essentially, the biggest failure of his career?
I've done a handful of documentaries that have done okay, with festivals and HBO and
et cetera.
And he had a sense of what I did.
So he called Vince, and they had about an hour-long conversation about doing it, and
they were definitely trepidatious.
But once they commit to things, they go all the way in.
They were making phone calls for me.
Vince called Jesse Ventura.
A lot of the stuff that came together was a function of the two of them committing fully
to doing it.
Afterward, when I showed it to them, they both said "This is the autopsy that the
XFL needed."
I like that they refer to it like a murder victim.
How did Bob Costas come in?
He plays like the villain of the movie.
You couldn't make the film without Costas.
First of all, you shouldn't make any movie without Bob Costas.
He's the greatest personality of all time.
I did a documentary on Africa and I seriously considered putting him in there as mid-film
comic relief.
He's wonderful in that sense.
Also, I wanted a critical voice, and I wanted a critical voice that wasn't mean-spirited.
A lot of people had a bone to pick with Vince and my father, especially TV critics.
So there were a lot of people I could have gone to who wrote perfectly horrible things
about the XFL.
But Bob, who's a very good friend of my dad and Vince, could come in and comment and
be funny and not come off as a vindictive guy.
Because you are your father's son, you can tell the story from a point of view that another
director might not get at, but do you also expose yourself to potential criticism that
you're being a homer for your dad?
Are you suggesting that there are people on the internet or in the press that are going
to take a negative view of me, my father, or Vince McMahon?
That's such an unconventional idea.
Can you give me any example ever of anyone going on the internet and saying anything
negative about those people?
I just don't think there's any precedent for it.
I worked really hard in the film to try to create a balanced view.
That's why Costas is in there and Peter King, guys who are sort of the arbiters of
decency.
And look, if you want to see negativity about the XFL, just Google "XFL."
The first 700 news hits prior to my film coming out were "Failure!
Failure!
This is a stain on Dick Ebersol and Vince McMahon's record!"
I just didn't feel the need to do that in the film.
I also think that people conveniently ignore the fact that the NFL and the NBA and Major
League Baseball and Fox and CBS and ABC just lifted all the technologies and techniques
that worked about the XFL, and still rolled their eyes about the XFL's viability.
At the end of the film, your dad and Vince are joshing about trying to revive the XFL.
How serious are they being?
Look, when I interviewed Jerry Jones for the film, he brought it up.
And when I interviewed Vince, he brought it up.
My dad's not going to do it.
He's really, really happily retired.
Vince is still on the road three days a week producing 17 pay-per-views and 104 "Monday
Night Raws" and "Smackdowns" a year.
He's a madman.
If Vince has put enough thought into it, I never question the validity, because you never
know when he's going to walk into the press room and announce that he's doing it.
Costas talks about this in the film, but the league was sold as being more violent than
the NFL, and now you can't really have a non-fan conversation about football without
talking about concussions.
Were you concerned about how that would flavor the story you were telling?
No, and the reason I didn't think that is because during the making of the movie the
UFC sold for $4 billion.
Look, the media plays an important role, but I think the media is an echo chamber to a
huge degree.
So the concussion story and the CTE story, which, by the way, permeated not just football
but also UFC and all these other sports, I think these stories are similar to the outrage
that the press had over things that Donald Trump was saying that, if you really went
into his voting group, they didn't care that he was saying.
Concussions are real and scary and the NFL does have a responsibility to their players.
But if you look at the playoff ratings, clearly the public isn't really that upset about
it.
What did your dad say when you showed him the movie?
The only thing scarier than interviewing my father and Vince was I showed it to them together.
At the end of the film, the only note I got was from a WWE exec on cutting back something
that was critical of Vince, and Vince cut the person off and said, "No, first of all,
we're not giving notes, and second, you should feel confident about putting that in
because that's what really happened."
I was mesmerized by that.
All through my life, I've seen my dad and Vince note everything to death.
I did a documentary about schools in Africa and got 15 pages of notes from my father.
I was expecting notes.
I was not expecting them to defend the parts of the film that I was most nervous to show
them.
What do you think about this?

Movie Sequels That Were Way Better Than The Original - Duration: 10:37.
Everyone knows sequels are never as good as the originals — except that every once in
awhile, they actually are.
In fact, some sequels turn out to be even better than the films that preceded them.
These sequels all surpassed the franchise installments they followed — and some are
now considered classics in their own right.
Spider-Man 2
Sam Raimi's Spider-Man was great, but it was hampered by two things.
First, it spent a lot of time telling Spider-Man's origin story before it got around to the main
action.
Second, they made some questionable choices regarding the villain.
Willem Dafoe was an excellent choice for Norman Osborn, but his Green Goblin outfit looked
pretty goofy, especially that Power Rangers-style goblin face.
Spider-Man 2 solved the villain problem by hiring the spectacular Alfred Molina to play
Doctor Octopus, a villain who doesn't wear a mask and also has a lot more pathos than
the Green Goblin ever did.
With the origin story already told and such a fantastic villain to work with, it's no
surprise that this is the best movie in Raimi's trilogy.
The Empire Strikes Back
Star Wars: A New Hope is an incredibly fun movie, and it's no wonder it was a world-changing
smash hit.
But the follow-up, The Empire Strikes Back, manages to retain that sense of fun while
introducing real drama, romance, and tragedy.
A New Hope ends with a big victory, but Empire is a reminder that wars are long, and even
after a major win you may find yourself on the run from a stronger opponent, wondering
if winning the battle could still cost you the war.
In addition to raising the narrative complexity, Empire also introduces important and interesting
new characters like Lando Calrissian, Yoda, the Emperor and Boba Fett, who doesn't really
do much other than look cool, but managed to earn a fan following anyway.
And yes, it has a downer ending, but that sets up the even bigger triumph of Return
of the Jedi.
Captain America: The Winter Soldier
Captain America: The First Avenger was one long origin story, taking Steve Rogers from
a skinny Brooklyn kid to a World War II super-soldier, then transplanting him directly to the 21st
century.
Its sequel, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, took that time-displaced Cap and put him at
the center of a very modern story.
Like many of the character's best comics, Winter Soldier is all about how Steve Rogers
comes from a simpler time and struggles adjusting to the complexities of the future.
On top of all that, Winter Soldier makes great use of the Black Widow, introduces the Falcon,
and even features a fight with Batroc the Leaper, a long time Marvel villain.
Who, y'know, leaps and stuff.
The Dark Knight
Batman Begins has a lot going for it.
Christian Bale poured a lot of energy into his dual roles as Batman and Bruce Wayne.
The two villains brought some dark fun some dark fun to the movie, both representing a
nihilistic worldview that destroys the world through a misguided desire to purify it.
Then The Dark Knight came along and changed the whole game, thanks mostly to Heath Ledger's
Joker.
He gives what might be the best Joker performance of all time, and even though he's incredibly
violent and destructive, he's certainly never grim.
Despite the ugly makeup, Ledger is magnetic in every moment he's onscreen.
Such a worthy villain makes this hands-down the best Christopher Nolan Batman movie, and
one of the best Batman movies of all time.
The Godfather Part II
There are very few examples of a movie and its sequel both appearing on legitimate lists
of the greatest films of all time, but the first two Godfather installments frequently
do.
The Godfather was more than just a gangster film, bringing a level of craft and depth
that the genre had never even approached before.
The Godfather Part II takes that complexity further, telling a story of family across
two time periods simultaneously.
The Godfather Part II is the continuing story of Michael Corleone, the previously sheltered
son who has become as great a mafia leader as his father once was.
But it's also the story of his father in the past, played here by Robert De Niro, a Sicilian
immigrant in New York City who learns how things work in his new home, and how much
there is to be gained from a life of crime.
These halves mesh seamlessly into one whole, a rare achievement in cinema.
The Road Warrior
Mad Max is an interesting, low-budget film about a cop in a near-future dystopia who
seeks revenge after his family is murdered.
The Road Warrior takes that same character and builds a whole new world around him.
What was once a collapsing society is now a full-on post-apocalyptic world.
And while the first movie was about Max's life, The Road Warrior establishes him as
a wanderer who reluctantly gets involved in the lives of others.
Add in the now-iconic production design and costumes, and it's clear that The Road Warrior
is the film that gave George Miller's world staying power as a classic sci-fi franchise.
Dawn of the Planet of the Apes
In 2011, the Planet of the Apes franchise was rebooted with Rise of the Planet of the
Apes, a sci-fi drama that focuses on the very first intelligent ape, Caesar — played through
motion-capture by Andy Serkis — and his relationship with the human who raised him,
played by James Franco.
It sets the stage for the downfall of humanity and the rise of the apes, but it doesn't quite
get there.
By Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, set ten years later, things have progressed, to say
the least.
This is the story of humans who have lost control of the Earth, and their growing conflict
with the increasingly intelligent apes.
While Rise may have been the key to the way this saga began, Dawn is where it really gets
exciting.
Star Trek 2: The Wrath of Khan
Bringing Star Trek to the big screen was a great idea, but even the most diehard Trekkers
will admit that Star Trek: The Motion Picture was kind of a mess.
The costumes and production design weren't much to look at, the plot was lifted from
an episode of the TV show, and at a runtime of more than two hours, the whole thing seemed
to move at a glacial pace rather than warp speed.
Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan was where they figured out how to make a Star Trek movie
work, returning Ricardo Montalban to his role as the villainous Khan and introducing important
new characters.
Director Nicholas Meyer also brought the whole thing in at under two hours with plenty of
action and sci-fi awesomeness along the way.
Ask any Star Trek fan what their favorite movie in the franchise is and they'll usually
only have one answer:
"KHAN!"
Addams Family Values
1991's The Addams Family was a surprisingly successful adaptation of the classic TV show,
and 1993's Addams Family Values took that success to even greater heights.
First of all, the sequel takes Wednesday and Pugsley to summer camp, where their encounters
with more conventionally normal children provide some of the most memorable gags in either
movie.
Also, most of the first movie is occupied with a conceit that Uncle Fester is being
impersonated by a con artist, until he turns out to have been the real Uncle Fester all
along at the end.
In the sequel, we know he's Fester from the beginning, so Christopher Lloyd can fully
occupy the role in a way he didn't get to the first time around, and his relationship
with Joan Cusack's black widow, Debbie, is a particular highlight.
Plus, it brought us this immensely quotable exchange:
"You...are...Mister Debbie!"
"I am an Addams!"
"Fester!"
X-Men 2
Bryan Singer's first X-Men movie came out in a time when superhero movies weren't a
sure thing yet, and in retrospect it's hard not to notice that it hedges its bets, posing
as more of a Matrix-esque sci-fi film.
X-Men 2 is infused with far more confidence.
It makes the X-Men feel more like superheroes, even if they still wear black leather.
It expands the roles of Iceman and Pyro, introduces Nightcrawler, and brings the first movie's
major villains, Magneto and Mystique, into an uneasy alliance with the X-Men against
a much bigger threat.
All of this goes a long way toward building the kind of complex world and layered character
dynamics that made the comics such a big hit for so long.
It also just makes a lot more sense than the first film, foregoing the "deadly device at
the top of the Statue of Liberty" silliness for a more believable threat of mutant extermination
at the hands of bigotry.
Back to the Future 2
Back to the Future is a fun movie about a teen from the '80s visiting his teenaged parents
in the '50s.
But Back to the Future Part 2 actually tells a complex sci-fi story about the nature of
time travel that the first movie didn't even attempt.
"Roads?
Where we're going, we don't need roads."
In the second movie, Marty goes to the future, then returns to the present — only to find
that it's been altered because of their actions.
That means he has to go back to the past again to set things right.
That third segment features scenes from the original film from different angles, as Marty
does his best to make sure the plot of the first movie happens as it was meant to.
It's a wild ride.
"Talk about deja vu."
Terminator 2: Judgment Day
The seven years between 1984's The Terminator and 1991's Terminator 2: Judgment Day marked
a huge evolution in special effects, and an increased budget made utilizing those state-of-the-art
bells and whistles possible.
In The Terminator, the antagonist is a robot in human form who's come from the future to
kill Sarah Connor before she gives birth to a son.
In Judgment Day, that robot has been reprogrammed to protect Sarah and her son from a more dangerous
model of Terminator.
But the T-1000 isn't just a robot in human form, it's a shapeshifting killer made of
liquid metal that can take the form of anyone.
The development of CGI "morphing" technology made the T-1000 possible, and it was mind-blowing
at the time — and even holds up as pretty impressive today.
Add in an amazing, engaging plot, and this sequel outmatches its predecessor.
Blade II
The biggest reason Blade II is much better than the first Blade is simple: Guillermo
del Toro.
The Mexican director was still mostly unknown in the U.S. when he was hired to direct the
second film based on the Marvel Comics vampire hunter.
The story of the sequel is pretty similar to that of the first movie, but del Toro brings
a level of style that really makes Blade II something special.
The complex fight scenes, Blade's reluctant vampire allies, and the super-vampires known
as Reapers, are by far the best in any of the three Blade movies.
Evil Dead 2
Evil Dead is a ridiculous film by accident.
Thanks to a low budget and the off-kilter sensibilities of director Sam Raimi and star
Bruce Campbell, it turns out to be something much weirder than your average horror movie.
In Evil Dead 2, Raimi embraced that weirdness and made full use of Bruce Campbell's comedic
abilities to make a delightfully bizarre horror comedy that starts in the same cabin in rural
1980s America and ends in medieval Europe.
Everything that came after — Army of Darkness, Ash vs. Evil Dead, the darker Evil Dead remake
— all happened because of the slick, tongue-in-cheek self-awareness of Evil Dead 2 far more than
the low-budget original Evil Dead.
After all, Ash isn't really Ash until he replaces his severed hand with a chainsaw, and this
is the film where that happens.
"Groovy."

Creamy Vanilla Eggnog Latte Mix ~ Gift In A Jar ~ The Holidays are Coming ~ Noreen's Kitchen - Duration: 8:12.
Hi everyone and welcome back to my kitchen
We are getting the ball rolling on our gifts in the jar because the holidays are on the way
And we've got to be ready for gift-giving opportunities today. We're gonna make our very first drink mix of the year
I don't think I made one last year, so I'm gonna have to make up for that today
We're making a creamy vanilla eggnog latte mix, and it's just gonna blow you away people are gonna
Love it and it's the perfect gift giving opportunity from your kitchen. Let's go see how this all comes together
Okay, we're gonna go over all of the ingredients for our
Creamy vanilla eggnog latte mix that is going to be perfect for giftgiving
Who doesn't love gifts from the kitchen especially?
Gifts in a jar now when I asked you all what you wanted to see this year for the holidays are coming
not only was make-ahead dishes a
Huge request the second largest request was for gifts in a jar so we're kicking off the holiday season here
With this perfect gift in a jar you can make this in a big batch
You can make a single batch like I'm sharing today, and what this batch is gonna
Do is make approximately five jelly jar sights gifts or two pints in a jelly jar depending on?
How much of a gift you would like to give so?
What we're gonna start off with and I'm just gonna go ahead and put these in my measuring cup here
And we're gonna whisk these together. I have two packets of vanilla instant pudding, and this is the simply
Pudding from from jello
and it doesn't have any artificial stuff in it so that's what I like to start off with and then we have a
cup of
non-dairy coffee creamer
This is going to give you that creamy delicious flavor a cup of instant milk powder. This is actually
From my food storage, so it's just dry milk powder a cup of
powdered sugar and then to make this a latte you're gonna add a cup of instant coffee granules and
To make this all eggnog and good we're gonna add a teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg and a 1/2 teaspoon of salt
And then we're just gonna get in here and whisk this together
you can also use your food processor to make sure this gets ground up nice and fine and
Incorporated really well, but since I'm not adding any chocolate or anything to this blend
I feel like using my whisk is going to be sufficient
So you're just gonna want to mix this really really well until everything is fully combined and incorporated
And you don't have like big clumps of coffee in one spot or big clumps of milk powder in one spot
and you might want to take your whisk and just kind of mash it like this like you're folding it together see because I
some of these little
Lumps of dry milk powder now
I use milk powder from my food storage
Which comes in a number 10 can but if?
You use the milk powder that you get at the grocery store that comes in a box or in an envelope
Those are gonna. Have a much more granulated look. They're gonna be almost like oh
They're gonna look very much like the coffee granules only note. It's gonna. Be milk granules
So it's gonna be a little chunkier than mine
But if you run it through your food processor if you have one
Then that's gonna be a great way to get that all blended together nice and smooth
okay, I
Think my blend is just fine right there where it is and now
I'm just gonna go ahead and I'm gonna put some in a jar and let you see what it looks like and
Then I'm going to come back and we're gonna fill up a mug and we're gonna give this a taste, okay
We're all ready to fix a cup of this creamy vanilla eggnog latte
I went ahead and I decorated up some of these jars
I am all about the kiss method when it comes to the holidays keep it simple silly right
now this is just a
treat bag and when Hobby Lobby or Michaels puts these on
70% off clearance after Christmas you grab a bunch of these and they're like
$0.50 a package and you stick them in a bin with your Christmas decorations you know and
Then the next year you always have them available also
I get like that the lunch sack style gift bags because they're super cheap and they're super versatile so I just put a jelly jar
inside one of those treat bags
I tied it with a ribbon you can make a cute little bow and
Then you can just write on there what it is creamy vanilla eggnog latte on one side, and then the instructions on the back
You're gonna use a quarter of a cup of mix for 8 to 12 ounces of
water
Now I just have hot water from my kettle
You're gonna give that a good stir
to dissolve everything up
And you see it even foams up a little
It smells amazing
And then we're gonna go ahead and put a little whipped cream on that cuz you know like you went to the coffee house
And you're gonna give it a little grate of fresh nutmeg
Beautiful I
Did want to mention when I said I used this simply? This is the simply good jello vanilla bean pudding
That's what I used in this mix
This is all about simplicity and ease and and in all of the recipes that I have shared in the past
I've always just used you know vanilla pudding mix
It's just in the last six months or a year or so that they've put out this simply good, and I really like it
I'm gonna give this a taste rick is not a huge fan of the eggnog
So I'm just gonna give this a stir because I want to incorporate some of that creamy goodness from the top
and a drink oh
Let's give it a taste
That's delicious
That's really good. It's very mild eggnog flavor and really the only thing reminiscent in this of eggnog is that it's
cream vanilla and nutmeg
What do you think?
I really like that. It's it's really tasty. I think that your friends and family are gonna really love this
It's super fast to put together
It's inexpensive, and you don't have to put it in mason jars like I did
But if you're like me and you've got a ton of jelly jars laying around
then this is a great opportunity to use them you can put this mix into a
Disposable icing bag and make a pretty little cone out of it
You could put some vanilla white vanilla chocolate chips, and maybe some cinnamon chips in there with it
And it would look really cute, try it with a pretty bow and boom you're done
That's an easy thing you can have that in a big basket if you have
Like an open house and people come you can have a big basket full of those and as they leave
You can give it to them as a parting gift or a party favor so that is how you make creamy vanilla eggnog latte

Republican Women Turning On Moore - Duration: 5:20.
>>THE DAILY BEAST SPOKE TO SEVERAL WOMEN IN ALABAMA WHO ARE
NOW CAMPAIGNING ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE EVEN THOUGH THEY
HAVE HAD A LIFETIME OF VOTING FOR REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES IN
THEIR STATE.
THIS HAS BEEN A REACTION TO SEXUAL ASSAULT AND
SEXUAL HARASSMENT ALLEGATIONS TOWARD ROY MOORE, THE SENATE
CANDIDATE LOOKING TO FILL JEFF SESSIONS'S SEAT.
AND REALLY
INTERESTING COMMENTS COMING FROM SOME OF THESE WOMEN, ONE OF THEM
IS WALTON FOSTER --
>>HERE IS ONE OF HER QUOTES, SHE SAYS --
>>A COUPLE WOMEN TALKING TO THE DAILY BEAST DOESN'T SAY
ANYTHING, THOSE ARE ANECDOTES, BUT WHAT ARE WE NOTICING IN THE
POLLS?
WELL, THERE WAS A FOX NEWS POLL DONE, FOX NEWS IS BY
NO MEANS A LIBERAL ORGANIZATION, AND WHAT THEY FOUND WAS THAT
DOUG JONES IS ACTUALLY LEADING --
>>HERE WAS THE MOST INTERESTING OUTCOME OF THAT FOX NEWS POLL.
THEY DIVVIED UP THE FEMALE VOTERS BASED ON AGE AND FOUND
THAT YOUNG VOTERS DISPROPORTIONATELY FAVORED DOUG
JONES OVER ROY MOORE --
>>THE YOUNG, EVEN IN ALABAMA, ARE ON OUR SIDE.
AND A LOT OF
THE OLDER MALES IN ALABAMA, AND THEY LITERALLY KEEP SAYING, WE
HAVE COVERED A NUMBER OF POLITICIANS IN ALABAMA, SAYING
WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL?
EVEN IF HE DIDN'T DO IT, SOME OF THOSE
GIRLS LOOKED REALLY PRETTY.
UGH.
WHICH 18-YEAR-OLD OR 25-YEAR-OLD
WOMAN, I DON'T CARE WHAT PARTY YOU ARE IN OR WHERE YOU LIVE,
WILL SAY I THINK A 30-YEAR-OLD MOLESTING A 14-YEAR-OLD IS FINE.
THEY WANT SAY THAT.
ON THE OTHER HAND THEY HATE LIBERALS, THE
ALABAMA REPUBLICANS.
AND LET ME BE CLEAR ON THIS, I GET THAT YOU
ARE IN A CONUNDRUM IF YOU ARE IN THAT CATEGORY.
I ALWAYS DO THE
SHOE ON THE OTHER FOOT.
WHAT I WANT TO VOTE FOR TED CRUZ?
UNDER
NO CIRCUMSTANCES.
BUT IF HE'S RUNNING AGAINST HARVEY
WEINSTEIN, AND WEINSTEIN IS A PURPORTED LIBERAL, THERE'S NO
WAY IN THE WORLD I WILL VOTE FOR HARVEY WEINSTEIN.
I WON'T GO
INTO A VOTING BOOTH AND MAKE HARVEY WEINSTEIN A SENATOR.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES.
EVEN IF HE'S RUNNING AGAINST THE MOST
LOATHSOME REPUBLICAN, TED CRUZ.
SO FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ACTIVELY
GO INTO VOTE FOR ROY MOORE -- I'M NOT SURPRISED THAT WOMEN
UNDER 45, NO MATTER WHAT PARTY THEY BELONG TO, CAN'T STOMACH
THAT.
THAT'S THE CORRECT ANSWER.
>>AND IT'S CRAZY HOW TRIBAL THINGS HAVE BECOME.
TO THE POINT
WHERE IN TRUMP'S HEAD OR IN SOME REPUBLICANS' MINDS, VOTING FOR
DEMOCRATS IS WORSE THAN VOTING FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN ACCUSED
BY NINE WOMEN OF MOLESTING THEM, SEXUALLY ASSAULTING THEM, SOME
OF THEM WERE TEENAGERS AT THE TIME.
IT'S UNBELIEVABLE TO ME,
THAT YOUR POLITICAL IDENTITY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE
LIVES OF INNOCENT PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN VICTIMIZED LIKE THIS.
>>ONE LAST THING, ESPECIALLY IN A SITUATION WHERE PART OF YOUR
POLITICAL IDENTITY IS BASED ON FAMILY VALUES --
>>COME ON.
>>WHEN YOUR POLITICAL IDENTITY IS BASED ON FAMILY VALUES AND
THIS GUY HAS SHREDDED FAMILY VALUES, FOR YOU TO TURN AROUND
AND GO, I STILL DON'T CARE -- AT LEAST BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF
AND ADMIT THAT YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT FAMILY VALUES, YOU'VE JUST
BECOME PART OF A TEAM, A CULT ALMOST, AND YOU WILL VOTE FOR
THAT PERSON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.
WE GET A LOT OF
HEAT BECAUSE WE WALKED BACK DEMOCRATS UNILATERALLY UNDER ANY
CIRCUMSTANCES.
SOME DEMOCRATS GET SERIOUS, WHY AREN'T YOU ON
OUR TEAM NO MATTER WHAT?
BECAUSE I HAVE A BRAIN AND I'M ALLOWED
TO MAKE HUMAN JUDGMENTS ABOUT WHETHER THIS PERSON ACTUALLY
REPRESENTS US OR NOT.
SO MAKE A JUDGMENT IN ALABAMA, DOES ROY
MOORE REPRESENT YOU?
IF HE DOES, THEN VOTE FOR HIM, I FEEL
TERRIBLE FOR YOU, BUT GO AHEAD.
BUT UNDERSTAND THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DECISION.

#DontGive - Duration: 1:35.
Hi I'm Ian, Head of Communications here at Liberty in North Korea
and this Giving Tuesday we at LiNK definitely don't want you to give.
That's right, just don't give.
This whole Giving Tuesday idea seems too good to be true.
I mean, come on -
a whole day where you give to organizations
like LiNK that are making the world a better place?
Sounds like a total sham to me.
So I'm definitely not gonna try and convince you
to help us reach some crazy ambitious fundraising goal
this Giving Tuesday.
Instead, I'm gonna give you three great reasons not to give.
Reason one.
The headlines on North Korea have been really optimistic this year.
So why give to an organization like LiNK that helps North Korean refugees
when everything is just super chill?
Reason two.
You know that donation of yours?
Well, this Giving Tuesday, it's just gonna be matched.
Don't you just wanna give 20 bucks and it only counts for 20 bucks?
What's up with all this doubling of your donation to have a bigger impact?
And finally, reason three.
By donating to LiNK this Giving Tuesday you'll definitely bum this guy out.
And you don't want to disappoint
this (bleep) who doesn't give a (bleep) about his own people, do you?
Wait, can I say that?
Absolutely not.
Now, if you still really want to give this Giving Tuesday,
I'm not gonna stop ya.
But definitely don't click that link above or the Facebook donate button.
Both will make it way too easy to donate and change lives.
Instead, just don't give!

How Close Are We to Curing HIV/AIDS? - Duration: 5:49.
[TRACE]In the 90s, we heard about the AIDS epidemic on every local newscast.
We were irrationally afraid of toilet seats, pay phones, even kissing people; sex became
scary.
And while we don't see those Public Service Announcements anymore...
AIDS hasn't gone away.
It's still a global epidemic.
To date, over 39 Million people have died of the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
commonly known as AIDS.
Current drug therapies mean it's now possible to live a normal life span with HIV, but that's
expensive and not a long term solution.
What we really need is an HIV vaccine and a cure.
So, how close are we?
[TRACE] Only one person has ever been cured of HIV56 - Timothy Ray Brown.
In 2007, he was undergoing cancer treatment and was cured of the HIV virus.
Researchers still don't understand exactly why or how.
[DR MARGOLIS] The things that he went through to cure his cancer also ended up curing his
HIV and the treatment was rather dreadful and had many terrible side affects and had
an expected fatality rate of around 70%.
[TRACE] After fighting this virus for nearly 40 years, with only one person cured, (which
was a fluke we don't completely understand, and can't replicate, in which it will probably
kill you) we've still learned a lot.
Once scientists figured out how the virus worked, they needed to figure out how then,
to eradicate it.
. But that was easier said than done.
You see, the virus's RNA invades your cells and changes your DNA.
So the challenge was finding a drug that could kill HIV, but not your own cells.
By 1996, they were able to make advances in antiretroviral combination therapy meaning
that HIV was no longer a death sentence.
Like a gang of defensemen dragging down a football player, the drugs work together to
stop HIV in it's tracks.
After killing millions of men and women, this cocktail let people live relatively normal
lives.
Doctors could then take the time to look for a cure.
[DR GREENE] There's certainly an AIDS epidemic that continues.
In fact, it is pandemic in proportions throughout the world
[DR THUMBI] HIV/AIDS is probably the most serious public health crisis we've had in
Sub-Saharan Africa, in Africa, in the world in fact, since the beginning of time.
In terms of the numbers of people infected and the scope and the socio-economic impact
of the problem.
[TRACE] To fix the AIDS epidemic, we need a vaccine and a cure.
A vaccine to stop the HIV virus from spreading and a cure for the people who already are
infected.
[DR THUMBI] The most significant problem that we face in making a vaccine against HIV is
the genetic variability.
Viruses that look similar but are not alike, And so in making a vaccine, we have to make
a vaccine that would be able to protect against all the strains of HIV that exist in the body,
but also that exist throughout the world.
[TRACE] This is why it's so difficult to get rid of HIV once it infects your body.
Remember, the virus's RNA invades your cells and changes your DNA.
The anti-retroviral stops it, but doesn't kill it.
[DR MARGOLIS] In the future, treatments might get even better or more long-lasting, where
one could have an injection or an implant of drugs that lasted for months or even a
year.
[TRACE] There are vaccination trials going on now with some success.
But if you've followed science news, you might have made this connection already...
this virus hiding in our DNA, and we've got a new DNA-editing technique CRISPR-cas9.
Why don't we just use that?
CRISPR-cas9 uses a protein called cas9 to cut DNA wherever it's programmed to.
It's part of our own cell's internal immune systems!
Cas9 could be told to search for a specific sequence, like a bit of HIV...
If it finds the virus, the cas9 could cut the HIV out of the cell, and let the DNA heal
itself.
This can be done today...in the lab.
We can't yet do it in humans...
Drugs to control the virus are still the best way to live a semi-normal life.
[DR GREENE] I can't say how many years for a cure, i can tell you there are many many
people throughout the world that are working hard on new cutting edge technologies to find
a cure.
[DR THUMBI] I don't think we are close, to be honest, to a cure, but we are making progress,
and it's my firm belief that we should continue to do research, and hopefully we'll have some
scientific discoveries in the future that will lead us to a cure.
[TRACE] Look, we've come a long way, but we're not there yet.
The research into the fight against AIDS has taught us so much about how our body functions
it's taught us a lot about other diseases as well, like Hepatitis C or Zika.
And every year there are new breakthroughs in the fight against HIV.
There are scientists around the world working on this problem day-in and day-out.
So, how close are we to curing HIV and AIDS?
A cure could be a while or it could be tomorrow...
Take a second and subscribe to How Close Are We to help illuminate humanity's path to
other major scientific discoveries.
Did you know gay men are often turned away at blood drives?
Even during times of severe need!
Why?

Try Not To Laugh Challenge #11 - Duration: 9:40.
Hello everybody my name is Markiplier! And welcome back to the Try Not to Laugh Challenge!
Now in preparation for this particular challenge,
I've trained my mind and my body by continuously staring at this picture (very sad puppy pops on screen) of this sad looking puppy
How can anyone feel any joy in their soul?
Knowing that this puppy is out there. I mean it's probably happy and loved,
But look at it, is that a tear?
There's no joy in my soul now, and I know and I know. Ohh, I know.
This is gonna be the one to beat.

Stop Pitching Sketches About Other Cast Members - Duration: 3:57.
(funky music)
- [Grant] So, it's like, a little piece of equipment
that you'd see in a Science Lab,
and I'm looking through it.
Suddenly... you can see it.
- Grant, are you pitching a microscope again?
No, don't... Okay, does anyone else have any other ideas?
Siobhan? You've been out for a year,
do you have anything?
- How about if you wanna see something that's really small..
- No, this is a microscope again.
People, I don't know why we have these meetings
if no one's gonna do any work.
Does anyone have anything?
- I have some ideas.
- Whoa, wait, really?
- Yeah.
- Oh, that's great, well let's hear them.
- Okay, my first idea is called
"Guy desperately needs a public speaking class",
it's just about this guy who struggles painfully
to explain himself in front of his co-workers.
- Oh, well, what do you plan on happening in this sketch?
- I guess it'll take place during like a presentation
at work, maybe, for example, a pitch meeting,
something like that.
- Oh, Katie, that really sounds like
you're talking about Grant.
- No! No, I'm not. It's a character I'm working on.
I'm just trying to workshop it.
You know, if you guys don't like it,
I have plenty of other ideas.
Um, here, this one's called
"The woman who was lucky to have Celiacs
because nothing else about her is interesting".
- Katie, is this about me?
- Why would you assume that?
- Because you know I have Celiacs.
- It's about somebody else! You're paranoid.
- Okay, well, do you have any other ideas?
We already did a Celiacs sketch.
- Fine, um, here's one called
"Guy who needs to realize wearing a hat
indoors is super bad manners".
- Okay, uh, then what happens?
- I think it's just about this guy,
he thinks it's like a fashion statement to have a hat on,
but really he looks dumb, and it's something that he
shouldn't be wearing all the time,
especially not indoors.
- Okay, that's clearly about me,
I'm wearing a hat right now!
- Do you have any ideas that are not about us?
- None of those are about you!
Wow, talk about self-centered.
Here, I have a bunch more.
Here's "Guy who was tall but in an uncomfortable way".
- You...
- Wow, great conversation.
- Katie, you're being very mean to Grant.
You know he can't help it.
- "Woman who has been in America too long
to still have a British accent".
- Fuck you!
- No, fuck you!
- No, fuck you. This is just the way that I speak.
I'm not doing a bit, this is me,
this is my voice.
- Geez Louise, PC culture.
- Guys, guys, guys, come on, okay?
- Here we go, "Raphael assumes we're friends,
but really, he shouldn't".
- You didn't even try to disguise that one,
you have Raphael in the title.
(Grant hums)
- I know a lot of Raphaels, my god,
I have at least three others - alright lets calm down
- No you don't! - Okay, guys
(Grant humming)
- Stop lying!
- Lets all remember, we're all friends here,
okay, can we just get back to the meeting?
- If you have a problem with us you should just
say it to our faces instead of doing this
passive-aggressive pitching about it bullshit.
- My final pitch "Terrible and stupid boss
can't get control over his writers".
- Okay, Katie, that's clearly about me.
- No, it's not about you, Trapp.
- Yes it is!
- Ugh.
- Okay, okay fine, okay all the sketches are about you.
Where else am I supposed to get material from.
All I see is you! God, I'm just so sick of all of you,
I can't stand it anymore!
(door slams)
- Wow
Okay, well, does anyone else have pitches?
That isn't a microscope.
That is not a microscope!
Alright, well, I guess we'll just have to do one of Katie's.
- Ohh...
(light guitar music)
- So tell me a bit about yourself.
- I have Celiac Disease.
- Hey folks, what can I get for ya?
- I have Celiac Disease.

How to Deal with Stress Real Life Tips and Hacks - Duration: 6:31.
Hey it's Abbi J from AJ Life Hacks and today we're talking all about stress and
how to handle the stress in your life. Now we all can have so many different
stressors in our life and these 5 tips that I'm going to share with you today
are tips that are down-to-earth and are going to help you manage and control the
level of stress in your life. So let's get going.
The first tip I have for you when dealing with stress is to identify the
stressor. Now so many times, well maybe just me, but I always am thinking to
myself, "I'm so stressed. I'm so stressed!" And a lot of the time I don't even
really know about what. It's just this general feeling and emotion I'm
experiencing that we label as stress. Well if we want to really take control
of our stress in our lives and handle it in the best way possible
we need to know what in the world is even stressing us out. So tip
number one is to identify it and I mean literally write it out and actually name
your stress. The second tip I have for you is to really think and ask yourself
this one question which is, "Can I do anything about this stressor right now?"
Now why this is such an important question to ask yourself is because it's
vital to understanding your stress, meaning there are some stressors that we
can do something about right now. If I'm really stressed about my homework
load or I'm really stressed about maybe failing a class, well guess what? I can go
to work on that immediately. I can stay after school and get some
extra help. I can get that test or big project done and feel like I am
taking control of that aspect of my life and that in and of itself is gonna help
you feel better about the stress in your life. There's also a lot of stress in our
lives that are "what if's". Well what if this happens or what if I don't do this
or what if this big catastrophic thing happens to me? So with this step,
ask yourself that question. Can I do anything about this? And if you can
then absolutely get to work on doing what you can to eliminate that stress in
your life and attacking the problem. And why this is really important to figure
that out is because it's gonna help you with step number three which is to
commit to not worrying about things that aren't in your control. Now I totally
understand that is so much harder done than it is said but it's a
principle that if you can live by it then
stress that's like ruling and dictating your life these are really
drastically going to go down and that's because you're gonna release control of
things that are out of your control and like I said this is really easier said
than done but you can start to practice this and start to say to yourself, "hey no
I can feel myself stressing about this. I'm gonna not worry about this right now."
And this isn't just shoving your problems off till tomorrow this is
putting your problems in a manageable spot because you know, "hey I'm gonna
solve this as soon as I can do something about it and until that time I'm gonna
live my life and I am going to not be stressed about it." Tip number four that I
have for you is so important when it comes to handling stress and I've
mentioned it in some of my other videos too but it's to practice good health. Now
what why in the world would I be talking about health and making a sales pitch on
having good health when we're talking about stress. Stress is an
all-encompassing aspect of our life. It can affect us physically, mentally,
spiritually, emotionally, it can hit us on all fronts until we need to attack
stress on all fronts. So this means that you're gonna get enough sleep. That's a
huge one everything seems better in the morning. I promise you when you've had at
least eight hours of sleep, you're gonna eat as healthy as you can.
Now I know this seems so silly but when I am lacking good sleep, I've
really not eaten the best foods to fuel my body the world and my stressors get
magnified. I just feel like it's so dominating and that there's nothing I
can do and I feel so overwhelmed but on the other side of things when I can get
enough sleep and when I'm taking care of my body and eating good foods that are
fueling my mind and my body then I feel like I can tackle things. And my last tip
for you tip number five is to create a stress-free list. Now a stress-free list
is a list of things that you love to do that bring you a lot of joy or help you
like take a deep breath and calm down from your stressors. Now that might seem
like a no-brainer well when you truly are in the thick of
of being stressed out of feeling like your life is a little bit out of your
control, those things aren't the first thing that comes to your mind. So it's
awesome to have a literal physical copy whether on your phone and your planner
on a notebook in your journal things that you love to do that make you happy.
That list can include exercising watching your favorite show calling
somebody that you love. Like I call my mom and the world seems so much better
after like five minutes with my mom. Or calling your best friend or going to
hang out at your favorite spot or even just like eating your favorite meal. All
these things can remind you that life is supposed to be enjoyed and not just
endured. So there you have it. Those are my top five tips for you on dealing with
stress and I know that sometimes we feel like oh you know what life is going
great and the next thing we know stress is out the wazoo. Well these tips are
going to help you with that and so you can start to manage your stress and if
there's any tip that I can stress that's like probably the most important
it's committing to not worrying about things that aren't real yet. So live your
life in the present, tackle those stressors that you can, and always rely
upon that stress free list for some fun things that bring you joy in your life.
So thank you so much for watching this video. I appreciate your support of my
channel. Please give this video a nice thumbs up. Comment below on some of the
things that you're gonna include on your stress free list and of course subscribe
to my channel where I have amazing videos coming out for you.
Well Abbi J out.

BREAKING: Trump Issues Major 'Russia' Statement, This Is Massive - Duration: 4:11.
Despite any evidence that President Trump colluded with Russia to win the election,
Democrats have continued to embrace the narrative.
President Trump sent out a post on his Twitter feed discussing this issue and what the Left
has habitually ignored since he took office.
He stated, "Since the first day I took office, all you hear is the phony Democrat excuse
for losing the election, Russia, Russia, Russia.
Despite this I have the economy booming and have possibly done more than any 10-month
President.
MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
According to Fox News, the liberal media and the Left were likely crushed when it was revealed
that Special Counsel Robert Mueller had issued indictments for crimes committed by Paul Manafort
before, and not related to in any way, President Trump's campaign for the presidency.
An investigation that has gone on for more than six months now has failed to yield any
evidence that President Trump colluded with Russia to win the election.
Yet the Left continues obsessing with the narrative, running with the idea that President
Trump's former advisor George Papadopoulos' admission of lying to the FBI about his contact
with a Russian national, is somehow proof of their claims.
But this admission of lying to the FBI shows no evidence of collusion.
Communicating with someone from Russia in itself is not collusion.
Nor would it even be considered collusion unless that individual was compensated by
President Trump's team to help him win the election, which didn't happen.
President Trump's tweet points to the idea that the Left is absolutely refusing to admit
that his presidency is doing wonders for America's once stagnate economy.
Rather than give President Trump credit, they simply refuse to talk about it, preferring
instead to discuss his supposed corruption.
When they do discuss the economy, it's somehow attributed to former-President Barack Obama's
efforts and nothing that President Trump has done.
According to Townhall, the economy under President Trump has been growing successfully, and it
has very little to do with Mr. Obama.
For starters, the stock market has been thriving.
As of October, the Dow Jones has risen 25 percent since President Trump won the election.
That 25 percent gain is the largest the DOW has ever had.
There has been 63 record stock market closing highs, 46 happening after President Trump's
inauguration — a shocking number when compared to the closing highs under President Obama,
which was zero.
In fact, $5 trillion has been added to the US economy since President Trump entered the
White House.
The GDP, which is used to determine the health of the economy, especially small businesses,
has had 3.1 percent growth with President Trump.
Under President Obama, it was a weak 1.3 percent, coincidentally the same GDP growth during
the Great Depression.
Jobs have increased by 1.33 million instead of the 4.59 million lost during the beginning
of President Obama's first term.
A stunning difference is that many of the jobs created under President Obama were part-time
positions, while many of the jobs created under President Trump are full-time positions.
In fact, September saw an additional 935,000 full-time jobs, on the top four of biggest
increases in US history.
Perhaps most impressive is that these gains were largely obtained without adding too much
to the US debt.
As of October, President Trump only added $400 billion, or two percent, to the national
debt.
During the same amount of time in President Obama's first term, he added $1.3 trillion,
or 12 percent.
Perhaps the reason the Left is clinging so much to the Russia collusion narrative is
that they want to report on anything other than the successes President Trump has been
bringing in.
While they call for impeachment and justice for an alleged crime with no evidence, President
Trump has been working hard to boost the economy and create jobs.
If President Trump could accomplish this much in the first ten months of his presidency,
imagine what he'll do for the US economy in an entire term, or even a second term for
that matter.

Movie Bloopers That Will Have You Cracking Up For Years - Duration: 6:23.
There's something undeniably entertaining about watching actors mess up a scene by flubbing
a line, breaking character, or even walking into a wall.
These classic movie bloopers are just as entertaining as the films they came from — in fact, in
some cases, they're even better — and they've kept us cracking up for years.
Smokey and the Bandit 2
More than 35 years after the release of Smokey and the Bandit 2, many comedies still run
a blooper reel over the closing credits.
And from Bandits' credits, it's clear that stars Burt Reynolds and Sally Field had a
blast working on the film.
"When do we get started?"
"That's my line, you say 'whenever you like.'"
"Whenever you like.
It's alright, keep it rolling, this is good stuff."
"Yeah, I like this."
Sadly, in the years since, a credits blooper reel has actually become a pretty reliable
indicator that the movie itself isn't all that funny.
"You're wrong."
Home Alone
Unless you're some kind of monster, there's not much that's funny about watching a child
get hurt.
But when Macaulay Culkin slips on ice in an outtake from the first Home Alone film...well,
it's downright hilarious.
"I thought the Murphys went to…"
Perhaps it's because falling down is always funny — no matter who's doing the falling.
North by Northwest
In one of Alfred Hitchcock's best films, North by Northwest, Eva Marie Saint's character
pulls out a gun in a crowded cafeteria.
As suspenseful as it is, viewers who pay close attention will know ahead of time that she's
going to fire that gun.
That's all thanks to a little boy in the background who plugs his ears five seconds too early.
"Just get back."
"Why you little fool."
"You just stay away from me."
[Gunshot and screaming]
Back to the Future
In this classic time travel comedy, Michael J. Fox's character, Marty, takes a swig from
a bottle of booze while on a date with Lorraine, played by Lea Thompson.
To his surprise, some Back to the Future associates decided to help him out...by filling it with
actual liquor.
[Laughter]
His reaction was 100% real...and he didn't seem too upset about it, either.
The Frighteners
Before he moved on to epic films like The Lord of the Rings and King Kong, Peter Jackson
directed this quirky horror movie about a guy who develops the ability to communicate
with ghosts.
Though Michael J. Fox wanted audiences to associate him with something other than Back
to the Future, it seems that even he had a hard time doing that himself.
During the shoot, when speaking to the character named "The Judge," Fox kept calling him "Doc"
— as in "Doc Brown" from Back to the Future.
"Little cook in the Pony Express, huh Doc?
Whoa!
I called him Doc.
It's f---ing Back to the Future."
"Doc!
Doc, I did it again.
Wrong f---in' movie."
We're the Millers
Jason Sudeikis Jennifer Aniston, Emma Roberts, and Will Poulter pretend to be a family as
part of a drug smuggling operation in We're the Millers.
In one scene, Sudeikis's character turns on a radio, and TLC's "Waterfalls" is supposed
to play.
Instead, the cast and crew took this opportunity to prank Aniston — by blasting the theme
from Friends instead.
"I love this song!"
"Woo!"
Aniston's emotional reaction made it totally worth it.
"That was really good."
Liar Liar
Jim Carrey is an incredible improviser, and directors will often just keep the cameras
rolling and let him experiment.
Liar Liar is one of Carrey's most over-the-top comedic performances, and while the filmmakers
couldn't use all of his hilarious improv in the film, they created a gag reel to play
over the credits.
"Prenuptial agreements."
[Laughter]
It's also quite a treat to watch cast members clap back at him with hilarious moments of
their own.
"Your honor, I object!"
"You would!"
"Over-actor!"
"Jazz-" [Laughter]
Star Trek
One thing unites the many different Star Trek properties, from the original series in the
1960s, to the world-expanding shows in the '80s and '90s, to the big-budget film reboots
of the 21st century: Spaceship doors never seem to work correctly.
"Sensors are configured-" "Aw, c'mon!"
For generations, these characters just can't seem to exit a room.
"Very-"
Raiders of the Lost Ark
The classic Indiana Jones flick Raiders of the Lost Ark is a film with a mistake that
actually made it into the final cut — and it's kind of a gross one, so of course we
can't look away.
In an extreme close-up on actor Paul Freeman, the camera catches a fly landing on his face
and crawling right into his mouth.
"Your persistence surprises even me.
You're gonna give mercenaries a bad name."
In an interview with fan-site The Indy Experience, Freeman claimed that the fly never actually
went into his mouth, but that an editor played around with frames to make it look like it
did.
The effect is gross enough that there's really only one appropriate reaction:
[Screaming]
Meanwhile, another beloved movie has a blooper that made its way into the final cut — and
is now as cherished a part of the movie as any of its other parts.
Star Wars
Probably because it's part of one of the most successful and beloved movies of all time,
the stormtrooper bonking his head on a doorframe during Star Wars is one of the most famous
movie bloopers ever — and it never gets old.
"Take over."
It's a rare and welcome bit of physical comedy in the otherwise dramatic space opera.
Plus, with stormtroopers constantly getting themselves shot, blown up, and thrown around,
this minor mishap really helps drive home the idea that these faceless soldiers are
the Imperial Keystone Cops of outer space.
"Huh?"
