THE ULTIMATE PIZZA CHALLENGE (11 TOPPINGS) - Duration: 6:46.
Hey everybody this is Randy Santel "Atlas" with Atlas & Zeus Promotions and
proud owner of foodchallenges.com! Very very excited! I am finally back in the
state of washington it's been a few years but I am here in Spokane
Washington I am at Pizza Rita I'm about to take on their Five Pounder Challenge!
Now I am here with owner and he is going to describe the rules and
the prizes and everything. [Owner] we developed this challenge for three
reasons. First, one is fun, second charity, and third just to show
how massive this pizza is because anybody can say something is a large
this is the actual precooked weight and it's 11 toppings now I should should say
that you can always substitute if you want for religious reasons, allergies, or
that you just plain don't like something, you say yeah take this off and add extra
that will do whatever you want but it's what its gonna weigh 5 pounds precooked
weight! Finish it within a half within a half hour you get fifty dollars to your
favorite charity you get fifty dollars and Rita bucks and then we raise the
Rita bucks ten dollars each time somebody tries and fails but because
these gentlemen are from out of town they won't be able to use their Rita
bucks although they're really going to want some pizza Rita tonight again I'm
sure, we're paying them cash today so so Atlas will be able to turn this hat
around let's get this challenge started!
All right like we said earlier this is typically a pay-to-play but thanks to
you all guys watching our videos they've allowed it to get the cash and because
I'll get the 100 if I do win I will be able to call this as free, profit like 70
bucks or whatever it is but I already paid I think was about 28 bucks for the
pizza that looks awesome! Ten toppings are on here and then the 11
the fresh healthy fibrous tomatoes I will finish those as I go along but
the record for this challenge is 11 minutes in 48 seconds so I'm gonna try
to smash that get all 5 pounds of this pizza down but I got my waters in my
diet soda here, let's see 1, 2, 3. . . Boom!
Last slice!
Eight minutes and 17 seconds they said, new record for the Five Pounder Pizza
Challenge at Pizza Rita in Spokane, Washington that
was fricking delicious very glad - the tomatoes were good, but I'm glad I had
them separate just those ten toppings on that pizza I loved that! Also had some
pineapple on there so there was fruit on there so overall I was very healthy
challenge, but yeah eight minutes and 17 seconds I got all those prizes that he
discussed earlier at the beginning including the $100 cash to help pay for
the pizza, and also I get a free shirt so I'll be able to add this to the
collection proclaiming my victory over the pizza challenge, but thank you -
Pizza Rina here in Spokane, Washington it was overall win number 455 and yeah it
was awesome so thank you guys for watching!

Massage Tutorial: Working Under the Scapula - Duration: 14:24.
Hi, everyone.
I'm Ian Harvey, massage therapist.
This is Sam.
Hi.
Today we're going to talk about how to lift up the shoulder blade during a massage.
How to mobilize it and how to work under it.
First, we'll start with four different ways of lifting it up, then we'll talk about why
you might want to lift it, mobilize it and work under it.
Finally, we'll talk about clients whose shoulder blades don't seem to want to move, and what
to do in those situations.
If you'd like to skip ahead, click on the time codes down in the description.
The first way, and my favorite way of introducing this scapular mobilization is in the course
of the rest of my massage.
I don't like to stop the massage, reposition the body, and then do a different technique.
I want it to flow.
To do this, while I'm up here working in the trapezius, I'm working with this shoulder
blade, I can reach down, I'll go into a lunge here, connect to the side of the table and
slip my hand under this acromioclavicular joint.
And just notice that having this little bit of upward pressure here lifts this scapula
up.
This looks like like this under her shoulder blade.
I scoop my hand under and I press up using my fingertips, but I'm not having to use my
muscular effort because my knuckles are pressed against the table and they are like a crowbar
angling upwards.
Angle that upwards, allow your hand to rest and now that you've got this scapula popped
up just a bit, everything that you do medial to it is going to more easily interact with
the medial border of this scapula.
And if you press up even more, and you can also press medially with this hand, you should
pretty easily be able to go under the scapula on some clients, on your more mobile clients.
I'm keeping this inferior portion of the scapula sandwiched between my fingers and my thumb
and as I rock forward it can come up superiorly, and you can make it circular.
Just try not to drive this with the small joints of your arms and your shoulders.
Instead let this come from the rocking of your body.
Now if you're not able easily leverage up that shoulder with this hand, if that's not
comfortable for your unique body or if you just like to bring the shoulder a little further
up toward the ceiling, you can ask your client to raise this shoulder up toward the ceiling
just an inch or two and slip a towel under there.
Or any sort of slim bolster, I like a rolled up or folded up hand towel.
From here, you can use both hands.
And this is a nice way of lifting that shoulder up and then slowly coaxing it away from the
surrounding musculature.
We want these rhomboids and the trapezius and the serratus anterior and all these muscles
that are interconnected to form this web that keeps this scapula in place, we want them
to slowly give up their tone.
We don't want to try to pry this scapula away.
And even if you're not able to get completely under the shoulder blade like this, you can
still make progress toward that.
And here you can do some things like using your curled fingers to pull this shoulder
blade outwards, and you can still do that easy mobilization stuff but now you don't
have to be providing that upward lift.
Instead this hand can just be depressing that shoulder and then releasing to allow it to
go back up toward the ear.
The third way is probably what you learned in massage school.
And that's to lift this arm up, place the wrist in the small of the back and allow this
elbow to drop.
You'll notice, of the three ways that I've shown so far, this has produced the most dramatic
lifting of this medial border of the scapula.
It can indeed make it easiest to work under it.
What I don't like about this is that it tends to require the client to engage some of their
shoulder muscles to keep this hand in place and there are some ways around that.
You can put a bolster right here, you can apply some pressure using your own body.
But I find that this tends to break the flow and sometimes it's a little extreme.
For some clients this will be a little too sharp, a little too intense because these
muscles medial to the scapula are getting a bit more of a stretch than they usually
get, which isn't in itself bad, just that when you apply pressure as well, that can
be a bit intense.
Now I do like this third technique in the side lying position.
So Sam, go ahead and bring this left arm, take this wrist and put it behind your back
and let this shoulder be loosey goosey.
And so now she's not having to use her muscles to keep this arm in place.
And the weight of her own shoulder is going to be helping me get under this shoulder blade.
I'm not going to be able to get as much movement out of this scapula as in some other positions
but this is going to be a new sensation for this shoulder blade and for this shoulder,
because the arm is in this internally rotated position.
And keep in mind that you can use this hand cupped around the acromioclavicular joint
in order to mobilize this entire shoulder girdle.
And you can do some work from the other side of the table using curled fingers and do some
more specific work with this medial border of the scapula.
The fourth way is while the client is supine.
I'm going to walk my way under her shoulder.
To do that, I'm going to alternate hands, one hand is going to allow some space for
the other, it'll walk in allowing space for the other and again, I'm using my knuckles
as a point of leverage.
I'm not having to use my biceps or really any muscular effort in order to create this
shape.
And then crowbar that shoulder up.
Walking under the shoulder like this is a good way of accessing that infraspinatus.
I'm just doing some gentle circles here with my fingertips.
And you can walk even further until you are medial to that scapula.
At this point, I am curling my fingers and I can pull toward myself.
That allows me to get quite a ways under that scapula, and I can do some gentle mobilizations
here just by doing small circles.
And I can slowly crawl my way out.
And once again, my fingers look like this.
I was hooking toward myself and pulling.
It's good to have short fingernails for this.
Let's talk about why we want to work under the shoulder blades or to mobilize the shoulder
blades.
First let's talk about why we wouldn't want to.
I'm not doing this in order to stretch this tissue.
A lot of times people encounter a lot of tension here, a lot of pain and they think, if I could
just stretch this tissue out, it would feel better.
But if the issue is here, I'm thinking locally and acting globally.
I'm thinking of their rotator cuff, I'm thinking of their pecs and I'm thinking of these nearby
muscles as well the epicenter of the pain.
Think of all these muscles that are pulling this scapula forward and rolling those shoulders
forward and work with those as well as this painful area.
I'm not trying to stretch this out.
In fact I think that this area is often chronically overstretched because people are working in
front of themselves, they're curled inward.
Just keep those things in mind.
I'm also not trying to unstick this shoulder blade.
I don't think that this shoulder blade is stuck in place in a structural way.
This work may increase the blood supply to the tissues deep to the scapula, it may promote
the bursae that live under this scapula to become more hydrated, but all of these effects
are temporary and they will go away.
And you could achieve the same things by doing jumping jacks.
I don't think that we are ungluing this scapula.
So why do I want to mobilize this scapula?
Why do I want to lift it?
Because I think it provides some interesting novel stimulus that the client can't get anywhere
else.
So by lifting this and by applying this stretch outwards and by mobilizing it medially and
superiorly and inferiorly, this is the only time some of these stretch receptors in this
local connective tissue and the local fascia are going to be getting any of this interesting
information.
That's us talking to the spinal reflexes, but we're also talking to the brain.
We're talking to the human.
Where else can people learn so much about their own body than through contact?
There are a lot of people who don't know what their shoulder blade is and what it does,
and we can describe it to them non-verbally.
We can let them know that it has this medial border, that it has this lateral border.
And that it can float independently of the ribcage.
And that everything that it does affects the rest of the shoulder and even down into the
arm.
Think of this as a mindfulness exercise for your client.
You're telling them the story of this part of their body.
And that goes for everything else.
We are making them mindful of how their neck connects to this upper back.
How their neck connects to their pecs.
How their pecs connect to their shoulders.
How this low back connects to the hips.
By doing these interesting mobilizations, by interacting with these tissues in new ways,
we're informing the client about their own body.
Now what about clients who aren't this mobile?
Who it's very difficult to lift their scapula up from their back?
My advice is to think about 10 sessions rather than one session.
To introduce them to this medial scapula slowly and gently.
Their first session, second session, third session and as you're doing this you can try
these different techniques to try to get that shoulder blade to pop up just a little bit.
But for many people this scapula is enmeshed in a net of very tight muscle and one session
isn't going to be enough to get this to mobilize.
For clients like this, just think of introducing mobilization.
And that might just mean getting this scapula to glide along the ribcage.
Rather than lifting it, rather than pulling it in this direction or pushing it in this
direction, just introducing this circular movement.
Introducing moves that bring the scapula up toward the ear and that bring the shoulder
down into depression.
And communication.
Some clients will have this scapula in a vise grip and not even know it, and it might be
within their power to let go of some of that tension.
You can say that like, "Sam, go ahead and let this shoulder be loose, just let it flop
around."
Sometimes just a little bit of communication like that can be enough to get this scapula
to move.
As well as non-verbal communication like introducing a little bit of jostling.
Even if this doesn't allow you to scoop this scapula in the first session, maybe after
three sessions of that gentle mobilization, of that gentle communication, you'll eventually
be able to slide right under that scapula.
But if your client's shoulder blade won't come up at all, if you're just able to introduce
that movement and that's all you're still able to do in 10 sessions, I say don't count
that as a failure.
People are made differently.
People carry their shoulders differently based on how they live their lives and even how
their body is built, how they're put together.
Even if you're not able to do a lot of mobilization here, just that little bit that you are able
to do is going to be significant.
It's going to be more than they usually get out of that shoulder blade movement.
Alright y'all, if you have any tips of your own, if you have any ways of working with
those stubborn scapulae and make them a little more mobile, please let me know about it in
the comments.

GTA 5 Online "NEW" Money Glitch 1.41! (GTA 5 Money Glitch 1.41) - Duration: 3:21.
Hey everybody what's going on! welcome back to another video!
and in today's video we are going to be talking about a new
Insane gta 5 money glitch! which is too easy and fast!
Also this is a solo money glitch so you don't need any friends to help you out!
Which makes it even more awesome! Anyways before moving on, make sure if you
enjoyed this video to slap that like button with your fist
comment below your thoughts! and subscribe for more!
So to start this off let me showcase how this money glitch works
Basically a bunch of glitchers and modders grouped up under the name Genius Theft Auto
And they found a very insane way to force the rockstar games cloud servers to send money
to Anyone they choose!
Not only money, they can also force the servers to multiply the RP amount of someone's character
and basically they can also send any amount of ranks to anyone they want aswell!
Whats more insane is the way they keep this glitch unpatched, is that whenever someone
gets the money they chose, it appears as minus in the maze bank account, and thats what they
call as the "Anti-Ban" feature! with this feature and having a minus amount
helps delete any fingerprints from rockstar which helps not to get caught and not get
banned! Pretty insane am i right?
Now the reason i made this video, is to help spread the word about these modders and to
give you the guide of how You can get free money and Ranks without being banned, in a
few simple steps! and its working for Xbox one & xbox 360 & ps3 & ps4 and the PC platform!
so these guys made a website which is located at:
www.cubegaming.net/gta
in that website they automated the process of forcing the rockstar cloud servers to send
money to whoever uses that site!
easy steps and easy process. First thing you need to do is to choose your
platform you can use "Auto detect" if you feel lazy
second step is to type your gamertag ID or your PSN ID
Make sure its correct before proceeding And then choose how much money you want in
the 2nd box and third of all, choose the rank
take a note that you can only choose 9 billion and a maximum rank of 999 and thats for more
precautions.
after that click on "Generate" and the console of the website will appear at the left side
of the screen and keep an eye on the process and if there is any errors it will tell you
what to do, and if everything is alright, you should see a "Success" message at the
end of the process
This method can be done while you're both online or offline from GTA so it won't really
matter.
Also before finishing off let me tell you that i'll make a giveaway
This giveaway is solely made to prove that this method is working
and it consists of 5 gamertags that can choose whatever amount of money under 9 billion
and whatever amount of rank under 999
but in order to qualify for this giveway, you need to do something in return
First step: like this video Second step: subscribe to my channel
Third step: Comment your gamertag id with the platform and the amounts you need.
If you don't wanna do that, no problem, feel free to do it by your own from the site which
i mentioned earlier which is located at: www.cubegaming.net/gta
And thats it for today's video, hope you guys had a great time!
will see you on the next time And im out!

What Will The World Look Like After Climate Change? - Duration: 4:22.
2016 was the hottest year the world has seen since the year 1880, the year scientists decided
to keep global temperature logs.
Humans are changing planet earth, and if we don't change the way we are living, Earth
is going to look extremely different in the future.
Some scientists say that there is no way to stop global warming, it is already here.
Our planet has already undergone changes in temperture many times in the past, combined
with the damage humans have done already…and there really is no turning back.
So if theres no way to stop it, what will the world look like after global warming?
Hello and welcome back to life's biggest questions, I'm charlotte dobre.
we continue to burn fossil fuels without worrying about the consequences, the overall temperature
of the planet will rise, and the polar ice caps as well as the ice caps on the top of
mountains will melt.
There are around 5 million cubic miles of ice on earth.
Over the course of the next few thousand years, the temperature of the planet could rise more
than 20 degrees Fahrenheit, which will essentially create an ice-free planet.
If the ice on our planet melts, that will inevitably cause sea levels to rise as much
as 216 feet, changing the land masses on our planet and reshaping the coast lines.
So what will the world look like with an extra 216 feet of sea level?
Editors theres a link to a national geographic article with pictures at the top of my script.
Lets start off with North America.
Florida will completely vanish, as well as all of the atlantic seaboard.
Houston, New Orleans, New York, and Boston will disappear under water, and Washington
DC will become a coastal city.
On the pacific side, San fran's hills will become a cluster of islands.
The caribbean and mexico will lose many of its cities and prized vacation spots like
cancun.
Next up, south america.
The amazon basin in the north and the paraguay river basin in the south will become flooded.
Most of paraguay, uraguay and the beautiful argentinian city of buenos aires will be wiped
out.
Anywhere around the mountains would survive, like peru's machu piccu.
Many glorious, historical european cities like london, venice and amsterdam will be
swallowed by the sea.
Rome, barcelona and amsterdam will be flooded.
The Netherlands and denmark will disappear under water, and the mediterranean sea, the
black sea and the caspian sea will swell.
Asia will have it terrible, as it is one of the most heavily populated areas on earth.
Hundreds of millions of people who currently live in pacific china will have to move inland.
All of bangladesh as well as coastal india will flood.
Australians most populated cities will also flood, and only the inland desert willl survive.
Australia will also gain a new inland sea.
In africa, the cities of alexandria and cairo will be wiped out by the mediterranean sea,
but in general, Africa won't have it as bad as the rest of the world when it comes
to the rising sea levels.
but if the overall temperature of the planet continues to rise, at least of half of africa
will basically become one gigantic desert, and virtually uninhabitable.
So now that you know what the shape of our planet will look like after global warming,
lets look at some changes in environment over the next 100 years.
Climate change will turn the already blistering hot temperatures of tropical forests like
the amazon into deserts.
Fortunately, winter seedlings will thrive in warmer temperatures.
Other areas of the planet that are currently unpleasantly cold will become tropical.
The last time earth experienced temperatures of above 95 degrees Fahrenheit, there were
rainforests in michigan and the arctic had palm trees.
Our ocean will become more acidic, due to the carbon dioxide being released into the
atmosphere.
Oceans absorb 1 third of all carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.
this will wreak havoc on marine life, especially invertebrates, which is what much of the ocean
depends on for food.
Coral reefs will be devastated, We are already seeing this happen with the extensive coral
bleaching occurring in the great barrier reef.
Some species of marine life will thrive in a more acidic ocean however.
Turf algae already thrives in areas of the ocean with acidic pockets, as well as the
fish that feed on turf algae.
That being said, We definitely wont see as much diversity in our oceans anymore, and
will kill off the most of the fish we eat, mainly big predators.
Natural disasters will occur far more often.
Storm surges, wildfires, and heat waves are inevitable after the year 2070.
That means we will see this happen within most of our lifetimes.
Even if the whole world stopped burning fossil fuels today, which would be incredibly difficult
to adapt to, it would take several generations for the temperature of the planet to cool
down, and a total recovery will take centuries.
So it seems this new world is inevitable, and we better get used to it.
Life will be different for humans in a warmer world, but that doesn't mean humans would
dissapear.
We would likely adapt to this new environment and find ways to live in it.
Maybe places like Canada and russia will become the most desirable places on earth to live.
For now, I'm charlotte dobre for LBQ, don't forget to like this video, share it with a
friend and subscribe to life's biggest questions for all of your answers.

The Politician Behind California High Speed Rail Now Says It's 'Almost a Crime' - Duration: 7:39.
High Speed Rail lines began popping up in Europe and Asia in the early '80s.
And passengers were exhilarated.
Trains are, for lack of a better word, sexy.
Going at two hundred miles per hour on land sounds very exciting, very futuristic.
Politicians see opportunity for a legacy for themselves.
With high-profile rollouts in France and Japan, bullet train mania was underway.
And then reality set in.
Unfortunately, the cost of building such projects usually vastly outweighed the benefits.
Supporters, who claim that most high speed rail systems operate at a profit,
use accounting tricks like leaving out construction costs and indirect subsidies.
If you tabulate real costs,
Two high speed rail lines in the world operate at a profit.
Rail is more of a 19th century technology.
We don't have to go through these headaches and cost overruns
to build a future transportation system.
What we're talking about is a vision for high speed rail in America.
But politicians can't resist the ribbon cutting ceremonies
and imagery of sleek trains hurtling through the lush countryside.
So the projects keep coming.
Don't be afraid of the future.
California's high speed rail line was sold to voters on the bold promise
that it will someday whisk passengers between San Francisco and Los Angeles
in under 3 hours.
Nine years later, the project has turned into such a disaster
that its biggest political champion is now suing to stop it from happening.
I say we cannot afford not to pass Proposition 1A
and build high speed rail in California.
It is foolish and it is almost a crime to sell bonds and encumber the taxpayers of California
at a time when this is no longer high speed rail.
An icon of California politics known as the "Great Dissenter,"
Quentin Kopp introduced the legislation that established the rail line,
and became chairman of the High-Speed Rail Authority.
The litigation which is pending will result, I am confident,
in the termination of the High Speed Rail Authority's deceiving plan.
Voters supported the bond measure to pay for construction
on the condition that the train would be self-sustaining.
According to one recent estimate, the project's latest iteration
would suck up at least $100 million in annual subsidies.
The ballot measure prohibits taxpayer subsidy
and that was an important part of convincing voters in 2008 to approve the bond measure.
In the meantime, lawsuits have multiplied, private investors have fled,
and even the official price tag has nearly doubled, from $33 billion to $64 billion.
When the legislature cleared the way for the Rail Authority
to begin selling the voter-approved bonds in early 2017,
the agency declared it a "milestone."
Kopp was livid.
It's deceit, that's not a milestone, it's desperation.
Because High Speed Rail Authority is out of money.
You've got to do what you promised the voters.
You can't change that without going back to the voters.
Attorney Stuart Flashman has represented environmental and transportation groups
in several lawsuits against the Rail Authority.
He now aims to stop the project on the grounds
that the agency broke numerous promises to voters.
They're going the wrong way.
They're basically doing this in a way that is very inefficient and will not work.
Baruch Feigenbaum says that starting construction
even though there isn't enough money allocated to finish the project
is part of a deliberate plan to extract further taxpayer subsidies.
Their strategy is to get enough of it built
so that basically there's going to be so much money sunk in the project
that they're gonna argue it's gonna be cheaper to complete it
than it's going to be to abandon it.
Kopp and Flashman, however, still believe in high speed rail.
It's just that this particular train has been hijacked by special interests.
Right now it's a boondoggle, I have to agree with that, and it's sad.
And why couldn't they do it right?
Because they made a bunch of political promises to people along the way
'we'll go through your city' 'oh and we'll go through your city'
It's winding it's way around, adding something like 70 miles beyond the most direct route.
Since rail projects are driven more by politics than consumer demand,
nonsensical design decisions are typical.
That's true even in France and Japan,
where a couple of the first high speed rail lines were actually profitable.
After building those lines, both of those countries built a bunch of other lines
that have no hope of ever being profitable.
Not because the rail folks necessarily wanted to build them,
but because the politicians said 'hey city A has rail, I want it in my city.'
Flashman says the California project has also become a land grab.
This was going to go right through the middle of Kings Country,
right across people's farmland.
And we had a farmer whose land it was going to cross, fellow named John Tos,
and his name is on the lawsuit.
By design, high-speed rail lines require wide swaths of land,
which often means seizing property.
Even getting rural land can be a problem,
there's a project in Texas that is proposing to build a high speed rail line
between Dallas and Houston,
and one of the reasons why it may not be viable
is the large amount of rural land they have to seize from ranchers.
Ranchers have had this land in their family for generations,
they might be growing crops on it and they're not real interested in selling that land.
As for the often-promised environmental benefits of high-speed rail,
Flashman acknowledges they won't materialize in California.
Ironically doing this high speed rail construction with huge amounts of concrete and steel involved,
is actually increasing greenhouse gas production.
It would probably take 50 to 80 years
in order to negate all of the greenhouse gasses emitted during the building of the line.
California's project is extraordinary in some ways.
As envisioned, it will be both the slowest bullet train in the world, and the most expensive.
They're using a blended track, so it won't get to the speed they promised,
because it's going through the central valley
it won't meet the timetable that was laid out in the ballot initiative.
It will be conventional rail, which in a way is parallel to existing Amtrak service.
It'll also be competing with air travel
at a time when a new generation of quiet supersonic planes is about to take to the skies.
Autonomous vehicles will soon give passengers the same freedom
to sleep, work, or read as train travelers.
And then there's Elon Musk's plans for hyperloop pod transport
in a near-vacuum tube at speeds up to 800mph.
I say let Elon Musk develop it.
'Cause I'm not advocating using taxpayer money for an unproven, untested concept.
I think if government gets out of the way
of deciding which transportation modes we need in the future,
the private sector will do a much better job of innovating
and creating profitable transportation modes that people will want to use
instead of locking in a sub-optimal choice from the 19th century.

TRAILER - America Under Siege: Antifa - Duration: 0:59.
Antifa is at war with your government.
Antifa is an organization that claims to fight fascism, but is actually, you know the most
fascist organization probably in the United States.
The only argument they really have is we want to be the thugs in control and not you.
They believe that right wingers need to be stopped by any means necessary.
The dangerous stuff is the media is asking whether it is okay to punch a Nazi at the
same time as branding everyone Nazis.
If you are waving a Nazi flag, one you are a moron, two you are a terrible person.
The ideology of Communism was not defeated.
There are plenty of stories of the homes of fascists being raided and all their things
being smashed.
They are not freedom fighters pushing for less government, they are brainwashed communists,
trying to kill people.
And at one point you are going to snap.

World Grand Prix Master System [Review] | Nostalgia Nerd - Duration: 4:39.
Do you ever look back and think; The world of gaming has changed.
Because, clearly it has.
Often we think it's for the worse, but sometimes it's actually for the better.
I know that may come as a shock, but World Grand Prix.
Here's a game, which if released today, would just be chuckled all the back back to the
developers.
It's not that it's inherently bad, it's just, there's very little to the main game.
It's like those LCD toys where you could jump to the left and right, to dodge obstacles.
Nothing really happened.
Your score went up, and you kept playing.
Sometimes you'd die and start again.
But the point is, we played this stuff.
We played the living hell out of it.
For hours.
Even games today can't grip me for that long.
I'll lay some of the blame at the doors of youth.
Some at this magical new digital world, but the rest...
I dunno.
I genuinely enjoyed playing games like World Grand Prix.
Time passed, but in a smoother fashion.
My brain was engaged in a pleasurable activity.
Yet on the face of it, there looks to be more pleasure in a tin of baked beans.
Developed and published by Sega and released in 1986, this was one of the early Master
System games available on "The Mega Cartridge", and redeem-ably the tessellated box doesn't
try and lure us into false pretenses.
Some people complain about the Western box art, compared to the Japanese.
But I actually like it's brutal simplicity.
It's really an updated version of the SG-1000 game, GP World, sharing many of the same ideas
There is zero connection to the real world of F1.
*Well, obscurely, apart from the odd piece of advertising to real companies, but* This
definitely isn't a licenced game like Domark's 1993 F1 release, but that just makes me adore
it that little bit more.
After selecting one of twelve countries, including the UK, with a seemingly never ending Houses
of Parliament, you can then master accelerating without wheel spin.
There's no scoring system as we'd commonly know it.
Instead you're ranked by position, depending on your time.
The only AI involved in the other cars is how close they are to each other when blocking
you, and that's dependent on one of three difficulty levels you select, and those cars
can be incredibly infuriating, especially when collision detection is a little off.
You do get a nice explosion to make up for it though.
As the driver of a two speed F1 Car, your task is to beat the target time to move onto
the next round.
There's only ever 1 lap, but Beat the target time and you may earn vehicle upgrades....
...Including... an ENGIN???
There's a certain level of skill you need to acquire here, and it's very well tuned.
Skimming between other cars and the road side banners is a blissful experience.
Maybe I was too hard on this game from the outset.
Although losing is still a disappointment, as your jettisoned simply to the Game Over
screen and have to start again
But what really kept me coming back to this game was the track editor!
You can throw together whatever track you like and then race it!
I mean, you're not doing much other than placing the same twists and turns here and there.
But the joy of playing my own, created track, was fairly unique at the time.
I'd only really experienced something similar with Locomotion on the Spectrum, where you
have to guide a train to safety.
But this was a very different game.
This was faster than a train, and I was in control.
I think that sums up the element of gaming which I've always enjoyed.
The freedom.
That's why games like Doom were more fun than on the rail shooters like Creature Shock.
That's why firing up the Doom level editor was the best thing since.. well...
Doom! and that's why, although gaming has changed, the core of it, has mostly remained
the same.
Good job World Grand Prix.

CONFIRMED: Now We Know How Obama Wiretapped Trump | Top Stories Today - Duration: 3:16.
President Trump has long claimed that Trump Tower was wiretapped leading up the 2016 election.
Now, everything is finally coming to light, and Liberals cannot be happy.
As it turns out, Trump was right all along.
According to a CNN report, investigators did wiretap Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort
under "secret court orders."
The probe came before and after the election, and revealed conversations with Manafort during
the time he was talking to President Trump regularly.
This seems to be an attempt by the fake news organization to reignite the conversation
about Russia collusion that died out over the past month or so.
After CNN mentioned the probe, they revealed that Manafort allegedly encouraged the Russians
to help with the campaign, then the very next sentence stated that, "Two of these sources,
however, cautioned that the evidence is not conclusive."
In other words, they have no idea whether or not there is any evidence that Trump worked
with Russia.
Furthermore, the evidence that they claim to have isn't even conclusive.
If they actually had any evidence of collusion, they would be announcing it front and center.
Democrats have not been shy about making bold claims against Trump without evidence.
It begs to reason if they picked up anything at all during their wiretapping of Manafort.
If they had, they would have come forward right away and presented their "evidence."
Clearly, their evidence is not as solid as they initially claimed.
The information was passed on to Robert Mueller, the lead of the special counsel in the Russian
hacking "investigation."
At this point, Mueller has not done anything with this information, or even spoken about
it.
The probe was initially authorized by the same court that handles the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Act.
Manafort was being watched by the FBI going back as far as 2014, focusing on work done
by a group of consulting firms.
Then, one of the sources confirmed that the surveillance was discontinued due to "lack
of evidence," according to the piece written by CNN.
It seems as if the point of their article was to get everyone stirred up, then subtly
admit that the investigation was discontinued because they couldn't find anything.
A second warrant was issued by the FBI, and this was an attempt to prove that the Russians
colluded with Manafort.
The problem here is there was absolutely no evidence of this issue to cite.
In order for a warrant to be issued, there has to be a cause, and they can't seem to
explain a cause other than they thought there was collusion.
The question isn't what they thought was going on; the question is why they thought
this way.
There is no official start date listed on the second, evidenceless warrant.
It eventually escalated to the FBI searching a storage facility that was owned by Manafort.
In light of all of this happening, the illegal wiretapping, and then searching Manafort's
belongings, they can't present a single piece of evidence to convince everyone that
this is worth looking into.
Regardless of political affiliation one may have, something seems fishy about this investigation,
and this piece by CNN — there is no denying that.
