All right, so, Lúcio will always try to get back to this region of the point and
where you wanna practice is in this area because this is quite a straight
area where you can practice the jump and another reason why you use this area is
it's easier to get Lúcio trough here because you have more vertical room
so he won't hit the ceiling and lose momentum and you have to like keep
moving him in the direction you want and he'll just try to go back to the point
most of the time he will just go through here; very rarely, if you get him to land
there too far here he'll go through this this other way of the point but he will
usually just try to go back through that arch so you just get him to go where you
want
all right; Now that Lúcio is here you can see he'll just go straight ahead back to the
point so this is a consistency for you to learn. It's one less variable.
like you won't be moving in different directions every time so you can get
used to timing the jump the punches and everything in the in a easier way so the
way I'd try to time the punches is like I kind of try to hit with the elbow
because if you do it too early he'll go to the sides and if you do it too late
he'll sometimes go ahead sometimes go straight to the side it it's harder to
get consistent. But if you try to hit with the elbow when aim straight
ahead straight ahead he'll usually just go in the direction you want him to go
if you do it too early like this, see he just goes to the side so you
have to time the punch, and jump, correctly. The jump it's I like this
region because you can practice in an open area like this or you can
practice sending him to a wall like right here you can just keep him pinned
on this wall to the side so if you go on playing and you can't get the movement
right, you can still practice in this area because you you get him in this
area but you can also use the same region to practice on an open area so
the thing is you have to land in the right spot if you land too far forward
or too far back or you send him to a side; you probably- you can still hit
sometimes but you can also miss it a lot of times so you have to practice landing
in the right spot. And Junkrat Lúcio and Winston they got a buff like
three months ago where they got better movement in the air so you can cancel
when you jump you can move better in there now so you can use that to your
advantage so you can land in the right spot.
I'll punch move forward jump and cancel my movement so I land correctly. He's
coming in my direction or if he's going forward I would just keep "W"
ppressed so I go a bit more forward, back or sideways to land where I want to
hit him so that's the first thing I'd practice is getting used to punching and
jumping and landing, like, as close to him as you can, but not on top of him. Or he
can go behind you or to the side sometimes so that's what you want to get
used to. Punching and landing just just in front of him but not behind him.
That's what I'd practice. If you're not trying to learn on the wall I'd practice movement
so you punch him and you land as close to him as you can but not behind him so
punch jump and you can land as close as you can to him and then it's just a
question of timing the the two punches with the jump so... jump and you can get
two hits quite closely you have to be careful not to jump too early or punch
too early or you just like go beyond him and not get anything or you sometimes
like just punch him away from you if you do it too late sometimes the jump will
throw him out of your range of the second punch but it's not as common, like
sometimes this happens but it's you get used to it after some practice so that's
how I think it's easier to learn you just get used to doing that.
I don't know if it helps or not but I usually look at the ground and a little
bit closer to the side the hand is going to be coming from like if the hands
going to swing to the right I usually move to that side so it feels like it
connects just a little bit earlier so it's easier to get two punches instead
of just the first punch or just the second punch but I don't know if it
really helps or not but it feels like it helps a bit. So that's about it I hope it
helps anyone who's trying to do the SpeakEasy training- all right see? he's
too far back he'll go this way- so that's it I hope it
helped anyone who's trying to improve as Winston. It's not something like a
"masters+ player is going to be the only ones able to pull it off" because like
like my SR look it's... it's not high. I'm a Plat scrub; I'm sitting at 2600 SR so
I'm not like a pro player or anything. But anyone can pull it off if you
get used to it and practice enough that's it. Good luck!

well the skill of education is very very fortunate and that we have received very
little damage to our building which is immediately behind us Ramona Wood
there is some water damage there but it's minimal compared to a lot of other
places on campus one of our departments is across the street even further back
in Mason Hall and that building houses the Family and Consumer Science
Department and they did have significant water damage there but it's still it has
still been spared of some of the traumatic damage that a lot of other
buildings on campus have so we're really in good shape
well they have been very busy communicating with students students of
course have been our feeling in jeopardy and they feel uncertain about how
they're going to proceed and so they've been busy mostly communicating with
students and one another some of them were affected by the storm themselves
with housing some of them have taken in refugees if you will they take it in
persons who lost their housing and are living with them some of them are
volunteering at the volunteer center here and some other places and of course
a lot of our students are not only displaced but even some of the displaced
students are helping others during this this particular week
well I was told that we had over 2,000 volunteers in here last Saturday and so
that itself is a huge number and indicates the kind of camaraderie and
support and just the desire that people have to help when there's a tragedy like
this and so it's just been monumental I personally have had contact and calls
and emails from all over the state of Alabama from other universities and and
other individuals who are wanting to help some of them I brought groups here
already and so it's just been phenomenal how people come together with this kind
of event well I'm Tommy Turner Dean of the school

George Soros BUSTED in Sick Plot to BUY Congress! Trump is Finally PUTTING HIM IN….
Joined We Dream is an association that has numerous silly objectives, including keeping
the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program alive.
As indicated by Breitbart, for reasons unknown United We Dream is supported by social equity
gatherings, for example, Soros' Open Society Foundation.
The establishment channels cash to expert migration bunches so that considerably more
illegals can be brought over our fringes.
DACA is a program that keeps unlawful tyke migrants from being influenced by government
migration law.
It likewise gives them broadened rights that they shouldn't have.
Lawyer commanders from 10 states have undermined an aggregate claim if the president keeps
utilizing the DACA program.
Obviously, this program isn't something that Trump needs any piece of, mainly in light
of the fact that it harms American residents.
Soros and his rich mates are attempting to campaign Congress to keep DACA in play, in
spite of dangers of a claim.
It is upsetting that we are living in a period where cash impacts whether charges remain
set up or not.
This is an endeavor to get more individuals into the nation who will agree with the Democrats.
Individuals like Soros would have LOVED if Hillary Clinton had won the decision.
His objective is by all accounts helping future Democrats so they have more individuals to
work with when decision time moves around.
It beyond any doubt is clever that they will let illegals vote with the goal that Democrats
and progressives can win a race.
President Trump wouldn't let any of this fly.
Trump has let us know from the very beginning that illicit foreigners are causing a BIG
issue in our nation.
In the event that we need to progress and wind up plainly incredible once more, we have
to expel the general population that are mooching off of our framework.
How is it conceivable that the Left is so oblivious to the risks of illicit movement
they straightforwardly bolster programs that make unlawful workers insusceptible to our
Federal law?
It is preposterous, without a doubt.
We have to stand up adjacent to our leader and let Soros, Congress, the greater part
of the benefactors of DACA, and every other person realize that we are not going to sit
by and watch our assets go away as a result of individuals coming here wrongfully.
There is a procedure that would get them into this nation without
infringing upon the law.

5 Little Signs That an Introvert Cares About You - Duration: 3:10.
5 Little Signs That an Introvert Cares About You
Even wondering whetehr your introverted friend actually cares about you?
there are some signs that they do.
Pay attention to their responds on something, and appreciate their actions.
You will be surprised on how they actually can maintain a good relationship.
1.
Accepting your invitation
Introverts do not usually go out with people.
they also do not want to go to certain events unless there is a clear indication that they
will be fine.
If an introvert accepts your invitation, unconditionally, it means that she or he cares about you so
much.
It is something that you should not neglect, and if you are a friend, be sure to appreciate
his or her effort.
2.
They call you and answer your call
Introverts do not like to talk since it is exhausting.
They also feel insecure because talking through the phone is not considered meaningful.
That is why they prefer talk in person especially with someone interesting.
If introvert actually calls or even answers your call, it is a big sign that she or he
respects and cares about you.
3.
They open to you
Introverts have so many layered guards protecting them from revealing their true self.
It is true that not all introverts behave that way.
However, most introverts really do not want to share what in their minds is because they
are afraid of being judged apart of many other concerns.
If introverts are willing to share story to you, it is definitely another good sign that
she or he is paying attention to you.
4.
They put their things away
Introverts are attached to inanimate objects around them.
Smartphones, books, and notes are some examples of their beloved companion.
If they keep them away when near you, you are the beloved companion replacing those
dead things.
5.
Verbal affirmation
In the last stage, introverts actually can say they like you loudly.
Sometimes, you think it is weird, but it actually a fruitful effect of failing to keep what
is hidden for some time.
All in all, that's the "5 Little Signs That an Introvert Cares About You".
So, Really cool information isn't it!

TOP 15 Photos Of Retired WWE Wrestlers We Can't Unsee - [Facts Wrack] - Duration: 16:41.
15.
TERRY FUNK.
TERRY FUNK WAS BORN BACK IN 1944 AND HAS HAD A CAREER THAT HAS SPANNED MORE THAN 50 YEARS.
THE NOW 73-YEAR-OLD FORMER ECW ORIGINAL HAS HAD A NUMBER OF SHORT-LIVED RETIREMENTS BUT
IT SEEMS THAT HE HAS NEVER BEEN ABLE TO MAKE ANY OF THEM STICK.
FUNK DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO LIVE WITHOUT WRESTLING IN HIS LIFE, WHICH COULD BE WHY MANY OF HIS
FANS THINK THAT ONE DAY HE WILL DIE IN A WRESTLING RING.
IT WOULD BE AN APT WAY FOR THE FORMER ECW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION TO BOW OUT.
FUNK MADE HIS WRESTLING DEBUT BACK IN 1965 AND HAS SEEMINGLY FORGOTTEN HOW TO WALK AWAY.
HE HAS BECOME A WELL-KNOWN FIGURE ALL OVER THE WORLD WITH HIS MOST RECENT MATCH COMING
BACK IN SEPTEMBER THIS YEAR WHERE HE MANAGED TO DEFEAT DOUG GILBERT, JERRY LAWLER AND BRIAN
CHRISTOPHER IN A SIX-MAN TAG MATCH WHERE HE PARTNERED WITH THE ROCK 'N' ROLL EXPRESS.
THE ABOVE IMAGE SHOWS THAT EVEN LEGENDS GROW OLD AND SOMETIMES THEY TRY TO DO EVERYTHING
THEY CAN TO CLING TO THEIR YOUTH.
14.
HULK HOGAN.
FOR THE PAST FEW DECADES, HULK HOGAN HAS BEEN CALLED "IMMORTAL" BUT IT SEEMS THAT ONLY
RECENTLY THE WWE UNIVERSE HAS BEGUN TO REALIZE THAT THE MAN HIMSELF IS JUST A MERE MORTAL.
HOGAN HAS BEEN THROUGH A LOT OF STRESS OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS BECAUSE OF THE TAPE THAT
WAS LEAKED BY GAWKER, WHICH HOGAN WENT ON TO SUE AND CLAIM OVER $100 MILLION IN COMPENSATION.
THIS CAME AFTER HOGAN'S WIFE OF ALMOST 30 YEARS DECIDED TO FILE FOR DIVORCE AND TOOK
ALMOST EVERYTHING HE OWNED, LEAVING HIM BROKE AND SUIC*DAL.
LUCKILY HOGAN HAD FRIENDS WHO COULD HELP HIM AND EVEN THOUGH HE HAS BEEN EXILED FROM WWE
OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS.
RUMOURS SUGGEST THAT HE COULD BE RETURNING NEXT MONTH.
THE STRESS OF THE LAST FEW YEARS HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL ON THE FORMER WWE CHAMPION AND IT
SEEMS THAT RIGHT NOW HE IS BEGINNING TO LOOK HIS AGE.
13.
THE SANDMAN.
THE SANDMAN IS ANOTHER ECW ORIGINAL WHO BURST ONTO THE SCENE BACK IN 1995.
OVER THE PAST 20 YEARS, SANDMAN HAS BECOME KNOWN FOR HIS DAREDEVIL ATTITUDE AND VIOLENT
TENDENCIES THAT EVEN LED TO A STINT IN WWE BACK IN 2005 WHEN THE COMPANY WAS ATTEMPTING
TO REBRAND ECW INTO SOMETHING THAT WAS AIMED AT A PG AUDIENCE.
SANDMAN BECAME A POPULAR STAR WITH THE WWE UNIVERSE AS ONE OF THE MEN WHO CARRIED THE
MANTLE FOR THE ORIGINAL ECW, BUT WHEN THE BRAND WAS DEEMED A FAILURE, HE WAS RELEASED
FROM HIS CONTRACT IN 2007.
THE 54-YEAR-OLD HAS SINCE BEEN APPEARING ON THE INDEPENDENT CIRCUIT ALL OVER THE WORLD
AS WELL AS AT CONVENTIONS TO MEET SOME OF THE FANS HE ONCE INSPIRED.
THE ABOVE IMAGE WAS TAKEN EARLIER THIS YEAR AND SHOWS A MUCH THINNER AND OLDER LOOKING
SANDMAN, SOMETHING THAT THE WWE UNIVERSE DIDN'T THINK THEY WOULD EVER SEE.
12.
VADER.
THERE AREN'T MANY FANS WHO WATCHED WRESTLING IN THE 1990S WHO DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT BIG VAN
VADER.
WRESTLING WAS ALL THE BIG GUY KNEW AND IT SEEMS THAT EVEN THOUGH HIS ORIGINAL STINT
WITH WWE ENDED BACK IN 1998, MANY OF THE WWE UNIVERSE HAS CONTINUED TO FOLLOW HIS CAREER
OVER THE PAST TWO DECADES.
VADER SHARED SOME SAD NEWS WITH HIS FANBASE A FEW YEARS AGO, WHICH WAS THAT HIS DOCTOR
HADN'T GIVEN HIM MUCH LONGER TO LIVE GIVEN THE EXTENT OF HIS CURRENT HEART PROBLEMS.
EVEN THIS DIDN'T SLOW VADER DOWN, AS HE CONTINUES TO WRESTLE ON A REGULAR BASIS AND
ONLY RECENTLY PASSED OUT IN THE RING.
AT 62 YEARS OLD THE FORMER WWE STAR STILL WRESTLES REGULARLY BUT THE ABOVE IMAGE PROVES
THAT TIME IS STARTING TO CATCH UP WITH HIM.
THIS IS A STARK CONTRAST TO THE MAN WHO HAD CROWDS AT HIS FEET BACK IN THE 1990S.
11.
CM PUNK.
CM PUNK'S WWE DEPARTURE WAS ONE OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL AND HARD-HITTING EXITS IN WWE
HISTORY AND IT SEEMS THAT THE WRESTLER STRUGGLED FOR A WHILE AFTER HE WALKED AWAY, WHICH WAS
EXPECTED SINCE HE WAS AT THE TOP OF HIS GAME AT THE TIME AND LEFT THE COMPANY DURING WRESTLEMANIA
SEASON, WHICH IS RARE.
SINCE HIS WWE DEPARTURE, PUNK HAS EXPRESSED AN INTEREST IN SWITCHING THE WRESTLING RING
FOR THE OCTAGON AND MADE HIS DEBUT IN UFC BACK IN 2016 IN A MATCH THAT SAW MICKEY GALL
WELCOME THE FORMER WWE CHAMPION TO THE COMPANY IN THE MOST BRUTAL OF WAYS.
THE ABOVE IMAGE SHOWS EXACTLY WHAT GALL MANAGED TO DO TO PUNK IN A MATTER OF MINUTES AND COULD
BE THE REASON WHY THE FORMER WWE STAR ISN'T IN ANY RUSH TO BOOK HIS NEXT OPPONENT IN THE
BUSINESS.
MAYBE WE CAN CHALK THIS UP TO SOMETHING VENTURED AND NOTHING GAINED.
10.
MELINA.
MELINA MADE HER DEBUT IN WWE BACK IN 2005 AS THE VALET FOR JOHN MORRISON AND JOEY MERCURY
IN A GROUP KNOWN AS MNM.
SHE LATER BRANCHED OUT INTO A SINGLES CAREER OF HER OWN AND IS A FORMER WOMEN'S AND DIVAS
CHAMPION IN WWE.
WHEN SHE WAS RELEASED FROM THE COMPANY BACK IN 2011, IT SEEMS THAT LIKE MANY STARS WHO
ARE STILL IN THEIR PRIME WHEN THEY LEAVE WWE, MELINA OPTED TO CONTINUE WRESTLING ON THE
INDEPENDENT CIRCUIT, DESPITE HAVING A BAD REPUTATION FOR BACKSTAGE PROBLEMS WITH OTHER
TALENTS.
MELINA HAS VENTURED ALL OVER THE WORLD OVER THE PAST SIX YEARS AND THE ABOVE IMAGE SHOWS
JUST WHAT SHE HAS PUT HERSELF THROUGH TO PROVE THAT SHE STILL HAS WHAT IT TAKES TO BE ONE
OF THE BEST FEMALE WRESTLERS IN THE WORLD.
MELINA LOOKS COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NOW AND HAS A LOT OF WAR WOUNDS FROM HER RECENT BATTLES
WITH OTHER WOMEN WHO ARE HUNGRY TO TAKE HER PLACE AS CHAMPION.
9.
SUNNY.
LOOKING AT THE ABOVE PHOTO, IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SUNNY WAS ONCE SEEN AS ONE OF
THE BIGGEST S*X SYMBOLS IN WRESTLING.
SUNNY WAS CONSIDERED TO BE THE FIRST EVER WWE DIVA, AND EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS NO WOMEN'S
CHAMPIONSHIP FOR HER TO FIGHT FOR WHILE SHE WAS EMPLOYED BY WWE, SHE LED A NUMBER OF TAG
TEAMS TO CHAMPIONSHIP GOLD AND IS STILL CONSIDERED TO BE ONE OF THE BEST MANAGERS IN WRESTLING
HISTORY.
SUNNY IS ALSO A WWE HALL OF FAMER, BUT SHE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN ON A DOWNWARD SPIRAL OVER
THE PAST FEW YEARS, WHICH HAS SEEN HER ARRESTED AND IMPRISONED A NUMBER OF TIMES.
SUNNY HAS ALSO GAINED A REPUTATION FOR THE THINGS THAT SHE HAS BEEN WILLING TO DO ONLINE
FOR MONEY AS WELL AS REVEALING FACTS ABOUT HER PERSONAL LIFE THAT NO ONE REALLY WANTED
TO KNOW.
SHE IS A FAR CRY FROM THE WOMAN WHO SET THE WRESTLING WORLD ALIGHT BACK IN THE 1990S.
8.
MARTY JANNETTY.
MARTY JANNETTY WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO BE SEEN AS ANYONE OTHER THAN THE PARTNER OF SHAWN
MICHAELS WHEN THE DUO MADE UP THE ROCKERS BACK IN THE 1980S.
MICHAELS LATER TURNED ON MARTY AND KICKED HIM THROUGH A BARBERSHOP WINDOW IN ONE OF
THE MOST ICONIC MOMENTS IN WRESTLING HISTORY BECAUSE WWE WANTED RID OF JANNETTY.
THE FORMER TAG TEAM STAR HAS SINCE MADE A CAREER FOR HIMSELF ON THE INDEPENDENT CIRCUIT
AND DID MAKE A SHORT RETURN TO WWE TO HELP HIS FORMER FRIEND BACK IN 2006 BUT WWE DECIDED
AGAINST KEEPING HIM AROUND.
JANNETTY HAS BEEN IN THE NEWS OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS FOR ALL THE WRONG REASONS, SINCE
JANNETTY ASKED ONLINE IF IT WAS OK FOR HIM TO HOOK UP WITH A WOMAN WHO HE THOUGHT WAS
HIS DAUGHTER BUT DNA ACTUALLY CONFIRMED THAT SHE WASN'T.
HE ISN'T MAKING ANY MORE FANS OUT OF PEOPLE NOWADAYS AND AS THE ABOVE IMAGE SHOWS, HIS
TIME ON THE INDY CIRCUIT WILL HAVE TO COME TO AN END AT SOME POINT, BECAUSE AT 57 YEARS
OLD, MARTY IS BEGINNING TO LOOK EXHAUSTED.
7.
SABLE.
BACK IN THE 1990S, SABLE WAS CONSIDERED TO BE ONE OF THE SEXIEST WOMEN IN WWE HISTORY
AS A FORMER PLAYBOY COVER GIRL AND WOMEN'S CHAMPION.
SABLE SEEMINGLY HAD IT ALL.
HER MOTTO WAS THAT SHE WAS THE "WOMAN THAT THE MEN CAME TO SEE AND THE WOMEN WANTED TO
BE."
THIS WORKED FOR HER FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS BUT IT SEEMS THAT SABLE IS ANOTHER STAR WHO
HAS BEEN CAUGHT BY TIME.
SABLE HAS BEEN MARRIED TO UNIVERSAL CHAMPION BROCK LESNAR FOR THE PAST DECADE AND HAS SETTLED
DOWN AS A FAMILY PERSON NOW SINCE THE ARRIVAL OF HER TWO SONS TURK AND DUKE.
THE ABOVE IMAGE WAS TAKEN DURING LESNAR'S LAST UFC FIGHT BACK IN 2016 WHICH SHOWS THAT
SABLE HAS BEEN OUT OF THE SPOTLIGHT FOR A LENGTHY PERIOD BECAUSE SHE HAS BEGUN TO AGE.
SHE LOOKS LIKE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PERSON, WHICH JUST GOES TO SHOW THAT EVEN THE MOST
BEAUTIFUL ONES AMONGST US WILL AGE AT SOME POINT.
6.
DANIEL BRYAN.
THERE WASN'T A DRY EYE IN THE PLACE BACK IN FEBRUARY 2016 WHEN DANIEL BRYAN WAS FORCED
TO ANNOUNCE HIS RETIREMENT FROM PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING BECAUSE OF A RECURRING NECK INJURY.
BRYAN GAVE AN EMOTIONAL SPEECH THAT LEFT THE WWE UNIVERSE FULL OF SHOCK AND SADNESS, BUT
HE WAS ABLE TO COMPOSE HIMSELF AND NOT CRY IN THE RING.
THIS PHOTO WAS THEN LATER SHARED ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND IT JUST HIT THE NAIL FURTHER INTO
THE COFFIN.
BRYAN LOVED WRESTLING; IT WAS SOMETHING HE HAD DONE FOR 16 YEARS AND HE HAD NO IDEA WHAT
ELSE TO DO IF HE WASN'T ABLE TO CONTINUE TO WRESTLE.
THE PASSION IS ETCHED ON HIS FACE AS HE IS COMFORTED BY HIS WIFE BRIE BELLA SINCE HE
IS FINALLY OVERCOME WITH EMOTION.
LUCKILY, BRYAN WAS ABLE TO RETURN TO WWE IN A NON-PHYSICAL WAY, WHICH HAS SEEMINGLY ALLOWED
HIM TO CONTINUE TO DO WHAT HE LOVES.
5.
SCOTT HALL.
SCOTT HALL DIDN'T EXACTLY HAVE A GREAT START IN LIFE AFTER HE ACCIDENTALLY KILLED A MAN
DURING A FIGHT OUTSIDE A NIGHTCLUB WHEN HALL SHOT HIM WITH HIS OWN GUN.
HALL FOUND A WAY PAST THIS AND MANAGED TO FIND A CAREER IN WWE, WHERE HE IS REMEMBERED
AS RAZOR RAMON, ONE OF THE BADDEST WRESTLERS THAT EVER LIVED.
EVERY MALE WRESTLING FAN IN THE 1990S WANTED TO BE RAZOR RAMON BECAUSE HE OOZED CONFIDENCE.
IT SEEMS THAT THE LAST THREE DECADES HAVEN'T BEEN TOO KIND TO SCOTT, AS ADDICTION TOOK
HOLD SINCE HE LEFT THE WRESTLING BUSINESS AND NOW EVERY YEAR OF HIS AGE IS PRESENT.
SCOTT HAS MANAGED TO CHANGE HIS LIFE AROUND OVER THE PAST FEW YEARS AND WAS EVEN INDUCTED
INTO THE WWE HALL OF FAME, BUT IT SEEMS THAT THE RESULTS OF HIS YEARS OF ABUSE ARE ETCHED
ALL OVER HIS FACE.
4.
BRET HART.
BRET HART IS CONSIDERED TO BE "THE BEST THERE IS, THE BEST THERE WAS, AND THE BEST
THERE EVER WILL BE."
DESPITE THIS, BRET HAS HAD HIS OWN FAIR SHARE OF ISSUES IN THE WRESTLING BUSINESS OVER THE
PAST FEW DECADES.
BACK IN 1997 AT SURVIVOR SERIES, BRET WAS PART OF ONE OF THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL MOMENTS
IN WRESTLING HISTORY WHEN HE WAS SCREWED OUT OF THE WWF CHAMPIONSHIP BY SHAWN MICHAELS
AND VINCE MCMAHON.
BRET THEN LEFT FOR WCW AND DIDN'T SPEAK TO WWE EXECUTIVES FOR ALMOST A DECADE UNTIL
HE RETURNED TO THE COMPANY BACK IN 2005.
BRET HAD ANOTHER BRIEF STINT WITH THE COMPANY BEFORE HE LEFT AGAIN BACK IN 2010.
THE WWE UNIVERSE RECENTLY SUPPORTED HART THROUGH HIS STRUGGLE WITH PROSTATE CANCER, SOMETHING
THAT HE IS NOW SAID TO BE CLEARED OF, BUT IT SEEMS THAT AT 60 YEARS OLD THE ABOVE IMAGE
SHOWS A GREYING HART WHO IS A SHADOW OF THE MAN WHO ONCE TERRORIZED HIS OPPONENTS INSIDE
THE SQUARED CIRCLE.
3.
LEX LUGER.
FANS OF LEX LUGER WILL REMEMBER HIM AS A CHISELLED VINCE MCMAHON KIND OF WRESTLER BACK IN THE
1990S WHO EVERY MAN ONCE WANTED TO LOOK LIKE.
LUGER WAS RELEASED FROM WWE BACK IN 2001 AND IT SEEMS THAT HIS LIFE HAS HIT A NUMBER OF
OBSTACLES EVER SINCE.
LUGER DATED MISS ELIZABETH AFTER HER MARRIAGE WITH RANDY SAVAGE CAME TO AN END AND WAS ACCUSED
OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE BACK IN 2003, LESS THAN A MONTH BEFORE HER DEATH.
WHILE HER DEATH WAS RULED ACCIDENTAL, LUGER WAS CHARGED WITH A NUMBER OF FELONY DRUG VIOLATIONS
AFTER IT WAS REVEALED THAT HE HAD BEEN STRUGGLING WITH ADDICTION FOR A WHILE.
HE LATER SERVED TIME IN PRISON BACK IN 2005 BEFORE HE ATTEMPTED TO TURN HIS LIFE AROUND.
THE ABOVE IMAGE IS A STARK CONTRAST TO THE ONCE RIPPED ALL-AMERICAN SUPERSTAR, WHICH
SHOWS THE EFFECTS THAT ADDICTION HAS HAD ON ONE OF WRESTLING'S BIGGEST STARS OF THE
1990S.
2.
SHAWN MICHAELS.
MANY OF THE WWE UNIVERSE STILL CONSIDERED SHAWN MICHAELS TO BE ONE OF THE BEST PROFESSIONAL
WRESTLERS OF ALL TIME.
WHILE SHAWN DOESN'T HAVE 16-WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP REIGNS OR LENGTHY UNDEFEATED STREAKS, MICHAELS
HAD A HEART AND HE WORE IT ON HIS SLEEVE FOR MOST OF HIS CAREER, WHICH IS WHY HE WAS ONE
OF THE MOST LOVED WRESTLERS BACK IN THE DAY.
MICHAELS RETIRED FROM WWE WHEN HE WAS DEFEATED BY THE UNDERTAKER BACK AT WRESTLEMANIA 26
AND HAS SINCE REFUSED TO RETURN TO THE WWE BECAUSE HE WANTS HIS RETIREMENT TO BE ONE
THAT IS REMEMBERED.
MICHAELS IS NOW 52 YEARS OLD AND IT SEEMS THAT THE FORMER "SEXY BOY" IS NOW SHOWING
HIS AGE.
FOR YEARS HE WAS ABLE TO GIVE THE ILLUSION THAT AGE WASN'T CATCHING UP TO HIM BUT NOW
HE IS OUT OF THE SPOTLIGHT HE HAS DECIDED TO EMBRACE AGE, WHICH HAS COME AS A SHOCK
TO MANY OF HIS FANS.
1.
RIC FLAIR.
RIC FLAIR IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST LEGENDS THAT WWE HAS EVER CREATED.
AS A FORMER 16-TIME WORLD CHAMPION AND THE ONLY TWO-TIME HALL OF FAMER IN WWE HISTORY,
IT SEEMS THAT RIC HAS LEFT QUITE THE LEGACY BEHIND FOLLOWING HIS RETIREMENT BACK AT WRESTLEMANIA
24.
OF COURSE, RIC WAS NEVER GOING TO WALK AWAY FROM THE COMPANY SO EASILY AND HAS RECENTLY
BEEN SEEN BY THE SIDE OF HIS DAUGHTER AS SHE CONTINUED TO CLIMB THE RANKS ON WWE'S MAIN
ROSTER.
FLAIR'S HEALTH BECAME AN ISSUE A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN IT WAS REPORTED THAT HE WAS PUT INTO
AN INDUCED COMA TO HELP HIS BODY RECOVER FROM SURGERY.
FLAIR WAS RELEASED FROM THE HOSPITAL A FEW DAYS LATER AND SENT OUT A YOUTUBE VIDEO THAT
THE ABOVE IMAGE IS A SCREENSHOT FROM.
IT SHOWS THAT THE STRESS AND AGE HAVE HIT FLAIR HARD AS THE FORMER WORLD CHAMPION IS
NOW LOOKING OLD AND TIRED.

Be Challenged. Be Intrepid. - Duration: 3:08.
Morning. Oh, it's early.
I feel like I just went to bed.
Currently struggling to get out of the warm tent.
How many times have you had fresh glacier water?
Never, probably, unless it's some bullshit label on a plastic bottle.
I've spent my entire adult life travelling for work.
I found that when I do travel for leisure I tend to go to the similar places.
I'm after a buzz of a city or the hum of a bar and I very rarely get outside
and into the outdoors.
When I was late teens, early 20s I used to camp, trek, you know ski
But, you know, your normal job gets in the way a little bit and you
start doing certain things in certain habits and maybe you forget about what
you used to enjoy about camping and trekking and seeing, you know, nature
and taking it in just staring at the rock formation or a glacier or sunset
which I don't think I've done in so long.
This is the pay off, isn't it?
Getting up there this morning it was tough. It was high heart rate.
All of the elements you can imagine.
I'm happy that we've got snow and wind and rain and sun all in one
because I guess it's not a place where you come for an easy, predictable trip.
You know, it's a wild thing.
Climbing a mountain can change your life because it makes you realise you can do it.
You can go through some pretty tough conditions and come out the other end
and just feel so exhilarated and happy that you've done it.
And you get up there and realise that was all been done before 7 in the morning.
Maybe I'm a bit more rugged and tough than I gave myself credit for.

Confidence Hacks: 7 Ways to Instantly Boost Your Self-Esteem - Duration: 11:57.
[Music]
Okay, I know what you're thinking.
Confident hacks, really? Look, the word "hacks"
has been so overused lately that it's
practically meaningless. The problem is
that people think that hacks are things
that are gonna give them instant results
without them having to do any work at
all. These confidence hacks are different
because they do require some effort on your
part. But each one is a highly targeted
action that you can take to get an
almost immediate boost to your mood and
your self-esteem. Without any further ado,
here are seven ways you can legitimately
increase your confidence when you need
it most. Real quick, I want to give a big
thanks to Scentbird for sponsoring this
video and for supporting the channel.
Number one, get out of your head and into
your body. So one of the biggest enemies
of confidence on a daily basis is your
own mind--yes your own mind. So some
people speculate that the human mind has
up to 70 thousand thoughts per day. And
because humans have evolved to be on
constant alert for danger and threats to
their survival, many of those thoughts
are negative. The constant "what if?" What
if I'm not good enough? What if I fail?
Sometimes we get so caught up in our
negative thoughts that we go down a
rabbit hole. And if you've ever been
stuck in a negative headspace, you know
that trying to think your way out of
that is nearly impossible. And that's why
the quickest way to actually change your
mood and your confidence is actually by
changing your physiology--by moving your
body. Not only does exercise distract you
from your negative thoughts, but it's
actually been proven to physiologically
increase your sense of well-being by
providing feel-good endorphins that help
reduce anxiety and boost your confidence.
Even if you can't exercise, deliberately
adjusting your posture can have an
almost immediate impact on your mood.
According to Harvard professor Amy Cuddy,
just doing two minutes of these simple
"power poses" like standing with your
hands on your hips is enough to decrease
cortisol (a stress hormone) and an
increased testosterone. And the
combination of that can make you feel
more relaxed and more confident. Number
two, harness the power of scent. Now, scent
has a very powerful effect on us. Have
you ever noticed how a single smell can
transport you back to a very specific
memory in a way that no other sense can
really?
And it shouldn't be a surprise that
smelling better can increase our sense
of feeling more put-together and
well-groomed. But a 2009 study actually
showed that wearing fragrances can
increase how confident we appear to
other people. During the double-blind
study, women were asked to watch
videotapes of men who were either
wearing cologne or not wearing cologne.
And surprisingly, the women were more
attracted to the men who were wearing
cologne, even though they couldn't smell
them. So in a nutshell, when you smell
good, you feel more confident, so you act
more confident. And people notice. And
that's why wearing cologne can often be
that x-factor in our grooming routine
that can take us from having a ho-hum
day to feeling like we're on top of the
world. I haven't worn a lot of cologne in
the past and so I'm just starting to
kind of dip my toe into the world of
fragrance. And about a year and a half
ago, I discovered a company called Scentbird,
which is essentially a subscription
service for fragrances. And there's a lot
of things that are great about this for
people who either don't wear a lot of
cologne regularly or who are just kind of
starting out with fragrance. First, the
fragrances come in a small spray size, so
you're not stuck with a big bottle of
something that you absolutely hate, and
that kind of allows you to "date"
different fragrances without having to
commit to one so soon. Secondly, the
experience of shopping for a fragrance
with Scentbird is much more comfortable,
especially if you're like me and you
don't like the department store
perfume counter atmosphere, with bright
lights and the cacophony of smells. I
mean, sometimes it's really hard to
actually know what you're smelling when
you're there. It's totally overwhelming.
So Scentbird partners with designer
brands--everything from like Tom Ford to
Gucci to Prada to Guerlain. And so their
selection is pretty broad, and they
actually have something like 450
different fragrances that you can choose
from on the website. For $14.95 a month
they don't just send you a tiny sample,
they actually send you a full of
rollerball size that lasts 30 days, and
would normally probably cost you twice
what this is for that same size. In the
past, I was almost afraid to wear cologne
because I was worried about maybe
putting on too much, but as I've gotten
more experience with it I have a better
sense of how much to use. And it's nice
because it really is that kind of final
little zhuzh to your grooming routine,
and you get that sort of crisp feeling
of confidence that you get when you
walk out of the barber with a nice
clean
haircut. If you're interested in checking
out Scentbird, they've given us an offer
code that you can use. Just enter offer
code TDM25 and you can actually get 25%
off your first cologne or perfume. So
I'll go ahead and leave that code in the
video description as well. Number 3, do a
small act of kindness for someone else.
So another great way to boost your
confidence is to just stop thinking
about yourself and your own problems for
just a second and focus on someone else
for a change.
We get so caught up in our own drama and
baggage that sometimes we forget a very
simple truth: we have the ability to make
other people happy.
You'd be surprised, but knowing that
you've actually brightened someone's day
can often help neutralize all the
petty concerns that you've had about
your your own day. And guess what?
Helping other people actually has a
physiological effect that can boost your
mood as well. In the book The Healing
Power of Doing Good, Allan Luks and Peggy
Payne talk about how helping others can
actually trigger what they call a
"helpers high." Similar to the runner's high
that athletes experience, helping other
people can trigger a release of
endorphins, and then after that initial
rush you experience a longer period of
calm and emotional well-being. Go out and
do something nice for a stranger. I mean
you can go so far as volunteering at a
local shelter for half a day. And I've got
to say that nothing puts your
petty concerns in perspective like being
around a bunch of people who don't have
regular access to a warm meal or a
warm bed. But it could also be as simple
as just paying for a stranger's coffee
in line at Starbucks. You're going to be
surprised at how good you feel
afterwards. Number four, take a calculated
risk. Another thing that can skyrocket
your confidence almost instantaneously
is stepping outside of your comfort zone.
We spent so much of our lives living in
such a confined sphere: work, home,
friends, family. And in that familiar
environment, all of our self criticisms
and problems seem much bigger and much
more difficult to solve. But we forget
how invigorating can be to get a
different perspective. Challenge
ourselves. To take a risk. And I'm not
talking about doing anything physically
dangerous. I mean, there's plenty of
social risks that could be just as scary.
Single? Grow a pair and finally approach
that girl you've been meaning to talk to. Ask
your boss for a raise.
Try a new haircut. Take a class and learn
a new skill. Attend a conference or plan
a trip to a place where you don't know
anyone
else. So many of these things initially
seem like risks but then once you
actually work up the courage to take the
leap, a huge weight is lifted off your
shoulders. And you think to yourself, "I
was afraid to do this?" The best thing, is
even if you don't reach your intended
target the first time, even if you fail,
you still feel better about yourself
because you had the cojones to put
yourself out there and try. And after a
while, this sensation of
wanting to look fear in the face and go
for it really becomes addictive, because
you feel this positive momentum in your
life and it really gives you a lot of
confidence. Number five, reconnect with
play. So another thing that sometimes
zaps our confidence is this constant
drive to achieve more. Technology has
made it so that we're always on when it
comes to work, and the the rat race is
more of a grind than ever.
We feel like we have to constantly push
ourselves to work harder, to achieve more,
but it's never quite enough. So maybe
sometimes the solution isn't working
harder, it's allowing ourselves to
rediscover play. As Charlie Hoehn writes
in Play it Away, sometimes the simple
joy of reconnecting with play can do
wonders for our confidence and our
stress level. No longer are we beating
ourselves up for not pushing and
achieving more, we're just simply
allowing ourselves to be. Rather than
trying to be productive, for once maybe
you should just let yourself enjoy
playing a game, doing a puzzle, shooting
hoops, playing catch, being a kid again.
Charlie says "play is a state where we
are truly ourselves once we let go of
our egos and fear of looking stupid."
Ironically, allowing yourself periods of
play can actually increase your
productivity. So that release that comes
with letting go of that stress for only a
few hours perhaps, can help improve your
focus, improve your creativity, improve
your confidence and your satisfaction
with work and the life in general.
Number six, talk to yourself. Now, whether
you realize it or not, you already talk
to yourself all the time. The thing
that we sometimes forget is that
we have the power to decide whether
that's positive or negative. Think
positive self-talk is too woo-woo for you? You
know who else gets motivated by talking
to themselves? Navy SEALs. Oh yeah, and
Olympic athletes. Even with their elite
training and extreme levels of physical
fitness,
Navy SEALs and Olympic athletes have
realized that psyching themselves up
mentally and squashing negative
self-talk is key for achieving peak
performance. But it turns out there's a
right way and a wrong way to talk to
yourself.
Personal development guru Gary John
Bishop believes that positive
affirmations don't work because we're
trying to convince ourselves of
something that we fundamentally don't
believe. "I'm a killer on the dance floor.
Ladies can't resist my super sexy moves!"
That's a great aspiration, but when
you're trying to tell yourself that
you've attained something that you
actually haven't, that becomes a
disconnect in your mind. So rather than
use positive affirmations, Bishop
recommends using positive assertions. The
difference is that assertions are things
that you can legitimately summon on your
own. And one of the big assertions that
Bishop mentions is the phrase "I am
willing." "I am willing to put in the work
to be a good dancer. And I'm willing to
get out there on the dance floor make a
fool of myself to impress the ladies."
Assertions work because they don't
conflict with reality. You can make them
true. And no one can take that away from
you. Number seven, create an "awesome log."
Now, a final way to boost your confidence
is just to remind yourself of past
successes. Now, we all have little wins, I
mean almost every day. The problem is
that we forget about them. So at best we
allow ourselves a few moments to kind of
like bask in the afterglow. But then
very quickly we're on to the next stress
or next challenge. It helps to sit down
and try to think of all the times when
you've had little wins and when things
have gone well, etc. But it also helps to
have a system to capture those things
going forward. And that's why you should
create an "awesome log" and use it to
keep track of things like little
personal wins, great compliments that
you've received, small victories at work,
meaningful conversations you don't want
to forget, things that made you proud. So,
you could go analog with this, and simply
just record this stuff in a notebook, or
you could use an app like Evernote. Or
you could have a little bit of fun with
that make it a little more interactive
by putting post-it notes in a mason jar.
And that way you can sort of watch your
awesome log grow right before your eyes.
If you're having trouble thinking of
past victories, ask for help. Ask your
friends or ask your co-workers. You know,
a lot of times they'll be able to
remember positive experiences that you've
had that maybe you've forgotten about. By
capturing those thoughts going forward
you can refer
back to your awesome log whenever you
need a little pick-me-up, and you need to
remember that, "oh yeah, that's right: I am
awesome! And here are a few reasons why..."
Alright, gentlemen. I hope you enjoyed
