the year was 2010 I was a freshly divorced
23 year old living in northern Louisiana on my own in a two-story apartment with
my wonderful dog had moved in just a month prior and was enjoying the peace
and quiet a fresh start after an emotionally crippling time in my life it
was a pleasant Sunday afternoon summertime in Louisiana I decided to
escape the heat by staying inside to watch a few episodes of It's Always
Sunny with my dog Kingsley in my lap the Sun was shining through my windows which
in this complex took up half the living room wall floor to near ceiling I had
blinds but I had decided to adjust them so some natural light would come in now
the neighborhood wasn't so bad but it wasn't the best you definitely didn't
leave anything outside and you always lock your house in your car I had seen
my share of shady activity so regardless of the time of day my doors and windows
were locked it had also come to my attention that my axe had done drive-bys
of my new place and not wanting to be caught off guard I was constantly
checking that I had locked everything a beat-up car pulled into the parking lot
which I could see out of my peripheral vision across from a grassy area in
front of my building I didn't recognize the driver who stepped out and I guess I
didn't think anything of it at the time until he walked in front of my window
staring directly inside my living room the bushes in front of my windows were
maybe waist-high on me I'm five four so this man was staring
right at me we were keeping eye contact no blinking and there was no mistake he
saw was inside by myself from what I saw between the blinds he was easily six
feet tall heavyset bald with dark eyebrows and a goatee he wore a short
sleeve button up shirt over a dark t-shirt and jeans I had never seen him
in our complex before Kingsley's head shot up ears perked his first standing
up on his neck he was a friendly playful dog and loved
meeting everyone but when I felt a low grumble from his stomach when he bolted
up off the couch I knew this wasn't a stranger he wanted to meet my heart
raced and I felt my palms tingle with anxiety the door was locked no way he
could get in right wrong when I heard a key in the lock
I remember feeling many things at once my heart stopped and jumped in my throat
my scalp felt like it was on fire but my hands felt cold who was this guy
why of all fucking things did he have a key to my apartment I didn't have a gun
the front door was six feet to my left the kitchen was at least 15 to my right
I didn't have time to run and grab a knife I didn't have a baseball bat and
I'd out throwing my nearby shoes would deter a home intruder of his size the
door cracked open I panicked Kingsley let out the loudest bark I had
ever heard and didn't one leap was snarling at the door his teeth bared
ready to attack for the split second the door was open
I saw the man's eyes widen then he shut the door and he knocked I shit you not
this man knocked on the door after he had already opened it with a key somehow
had Kingsley was busy letting out vicious growls not acting at all like
the giant goofball I knew him to be I jumped up after him grabbed his collar
and with the other hand grabbed the doorknob and opened it just enough for
Kingsley to poke his head out can I help you with something my voice shook
anger and fear coursed through my veins I'm here to pick up my mail I'm
expecting a package I used to live here the man said matter-of-factly as if this
was something I should have known what the fuck
you don't live here anymore I live here I don't have your mail seriously our
mailboxes were at the apartment main office I was expecting a package from
FedEx I want my package he took a half step forward seeming
impatient angry expecting somehow that I would have his mysterious mail and
invite him in no actually three days prior FedEx did come by with an envelope
but as the name on it wasn't mine I didn't accept it they came by with
something a few days ago but it wasn't mine so I made them take it back his
face went red and he clenched his fists I'm starting to panic why would you do
that that is my package and I was expecting
it he exploded waving his arms as if I was to blame
Kingsley left up nearly dragging me out of the door I yanked him back and the
man continued his rant I can't believe you would do something so fucking stupid
now I have to go track it down myself do you know what a waste of time this is
I was frantic at this point I didn't know where this dude came from why he
still had a key to this place why when he saw me in the living room with a dog
he tried to come in and why of all things was he freaking out over a stupid
envelope look man I don't have your package just call fucking FedEx and take
care of it yourself the word sounded better in my head
out loud they sounded shaky and fearful and I knew my lack of courage was a
terrible disadvantage in this situation I can't believe this shit
he was completely red flailing around in rage you got to leave I yelped trying
with all my might to keep ahold of poor Kingsley I'm going to cover cops
I finally shouted out figuring this would deter the now furious stranger in
front of my door for a split second his eyes widened and he took a step back I
will be back he gulped and turned around Kingsley let out a few growls I patted
him and shut the door locking it unlocking then locking it again
I put him on a leash grabbed my keys and hurried to the front office I told them
what had just happened I let them know the police would be notified and
demanded they changed the locks and install a chain now no way I was waiting
for that psycho to come back he never did to this day regardless of where I
live I keep my car windows and doors locked and I double check when I leave
the house and go to bed thanks asshole it's been three years and
the paranoia persists
when I was in my early teens early eighties damn that makes me feel old we
lived in the Chattanooga Tennessee area one weekend I went with my church group
to do some overnight spelunking in one of the caves in the area having gone
into more commercialized caves in the past this trip was not what I had
expected as this cave entrance was a small opening in a group of rocks on the
side of a country road no markers or signs we hiked in for a few hours
through some challenging terrain and slept overnight then back out after
breakfast for a 13 year old boy it was a great adventure
muddy tight spaces to squeeze through stalagmites cave pulls with blind fish
the works there were about a dozen of us that went I was well until we were told
to go to bed for the night all flashlights were off and it was
completely black as we were deep in the cave system sometime during the night I
woke to something pulling on the foot end of my sleeping bag dragging me deep
into the black void at first I was annoyed more than anything as I thought
someone was pranking me I was also in the Boy Scouts as well with that
rambunctious group we were always pranking each other I fumbled in my
sleeping bag trying to find my flashlight to see who was doing this
before I could find it I realized I was speeding up next thing I know I was
sliding out of control down a slick damp clay pack till I did whatever I could to
stop I was digging my fingers in but it wasn't working I eventually did stop
when the hill flattened out I finally found my flashlight and looked around
everyone was fast asleep and to any commotion I caused wasn't noticed no
perpetrators were seen but I also discovered that I was about a foot away
from a very deep chasm had I gone over the edge of the cliff they would have
never found me for the following three decades I wrote the whole thing off
here's a few possible reasons this happened most likely I picked a spot
that was not as flat as I thought I might have tossed and
turned in my sleep and that activity could have been enough to kick-start the
potentially lethal slide but the batshit-crazy theory is that years later
I started watching paranormal shows some of the shows had some sort of deep earth
creatures that want to keep us out of their domain then I had a what-if moment
could it have been them was I attacked
about a year and a half ago I had some friends come over we'd been playing
Magic the Gathering for a while and had gotten bored so I figured I'd show them
this abandoned house about a mile away we called it the spook house it wasn't
really scary in the day but this was one I am making it all the more fun I had
planned to act like a tour guide for them
maybe even try to scare them a little even though the only scary thing I could
imagine was running into a method up homeless person we eventually get to the
house after 10 or 15 minutes and I begin my tour guide routine and it's important
to note you can only get in through the back the fronts boarded up and I don't
like vandalizing things so we're walking up the driveway to the back I'm looking
at them talking about the house with my back turn to the back door when my
friend gets this horrified look on his face and in kind of a whisper yell says
dude look so obviously I looked behind me and see what looks like a person
crawling out of the house on their hands and knees I could only see the front
half of it the thing then looks at us it has huge white eyes that pretty much
matched its skin it's extremely skinny it kind of reminded me of pictures of
Holocaust survivors it had no hair that I could tell but the moment was very
brief it stopped looking at us after a few seconds then bolted into the woods
behind the house needless to say we were all pretty terrified so we booked it
back to my house we stayed up all night talking on my front porch as we were
talking we heard branches breaking out past the back yard I'm not saying it was
related just a a strange coincidence that gave us yet
another scare I had no idea what skinwalkers were back then but I did
know about the rake I've honestly never been that terrified in my life we were
probably only 15 or 20 feet from it if anyone's interested I live in southeast
Indiana and have heard similar stories from other people
so when I was in my 20s ten years ago I moved to London I moved in with two
South African girls who were very sweet and nice and who really liked smoking
weed one thing I wasn't prepared for is that UK homes are cold so most people
have a hot water bottle and a blanket when they hang out at home anyway we
lived in this old Victorian flat on the high street on the top floor four
storeys up or so we had to climb up narrow winding stairs and then had to go
through three doors to get in one with iron bars and then there was a little
space big enough for a few people to stand and two other doors we told
ourselves it was to protect the fancy stained glass door then there was a
normal wooden door I come home from my job at the pub around 3:00 p.m. not
expecting anyone to be home I go straight to my room
throw my keys on the bed and start brushing my hair getting ready for my
next job gotta pay that London rent as I was brushing my hair I could have sworn
I heard something coming from the kitchen
I stopped I said hello and when nobody answered
I kept brushing my hair I heard a noise again and stopped it sounded like
someone wearing work boots walking in the kitchen carrying a hot-water bottle
that swishing sound it makes I freaked out and in a panic think grab something
sharp I grabbed the pen next to my keys on the bed not realising until later
that I should have grabbed the keys so that I could actually get out of those
three doors I run down the hall and up the four or five steps turn into the
next hall and go into the living room which was next to the doors I shut the
first door and sat against it so nobody can come in I'm holding my pen like a
maniac I had my phone on me and for some reason I didn't think to call the cops
but called my ex the only person I knew in London I guess because he knew where
I lived and could get the cops for me in case something happened before I could
call them next I hang up and call the cops they are on the way
I can't remember if I stayed on the phone or not but what happened next was
the heavy work boots started walking up the hall with quiet steps up the stairs
like they didn't want to be heard I could still hear the swishing as whoever
it was got to the other side of the door I was properly freaking out crying and
shaking I wanted to just jump out the window
there was a butcher shop on the ground floor and they let the cops into the
stairwell so that they could come up but of course they couldn't get through the
iron one they told me that I needed to get my keys so that I can open the door
I told them no the guys in there but they said either that or they'd have to
wait to get the tools to cut through the bars
she finally talks me into opening the door I do and can immediately feel the
air go flat nobody's there and I feel like I don't know like I was in another
level or slice of reality I run and get the keys and open the door six police
officers pour into the place I help them look everywhere for an intruder under
the beds in the closets etc they confirm that nobody could have gotten through
the window or back doors they were locked there was an attic but it was
really high up and there's no way to get up there they're standing in the kitchen
with me calming me down telling me it could have been a sound for my neighbors
it couldn't have been as we never heard them at all I noticed one of them
glancing behind me nonchalantly and it was only after they left that I realized
that behind me was my flatmates pot plant they must have thought I was
stoned and hearing things I wasn't what I heard was so real and it didn't even
cross my mind that it could be a ghost it felt more like the blurring of time
and space like someone who was alive or thought they were
you
it all started when a buddy of mine that I go to college with Matt wanted to skip
a day of class and take a week day trip up to pend oreille County to get some
late fall dirt biking in before it snowed and the season was officially
over we had gotten some writing done in the area before but instead of going to
our usual romping ground we opted to shoot for a lesser known trail that a
friend had told us about so early Tuesday morning we loaded up our bikes
into the truck consider out a map of the area that showed all the logging roads
and the few official dirt bike trails there were and headed out I want to
clarify that this was not private land were very careful to only ride on public
land where we are allowed to do so traffic was really light so we arrived
at the spot we were planning on parking the truck in only one and a half hours
which meant we had plenty of daylight to go out and ride though we both have
headlights on our bikes and had agreed that a little bit of darkness wouldn't
be allowed to put a damper on the fun after we unloaded we locked up the truck
wrote down the highway on the shoulder for about half a mile then turned off
onto the logging road this awesome trail supposedly split off of it was a tennis
mile ride down this logging road to get to the trailhead and we were probably a
little over halfway there when from behind us we hear a loud ass
engine this beater of a truck flies by us damn near hitting Matt and then
disappears around the next turn and it's not like Matt and I were going slow we
aren't pro riders or anything but we're definitely not bad the last time I had
checked we were doing 37 which is pretty fast on a crappy abandoned road after
this Matt stopped and killed his engine so we could make sure I knew just how
pissed he was did you see that fucking shit dude almost killed me
we decided that while we were already stopped we would take a quick break
drink some water then get back after it and get back after it we did we found
the trailhead and we're loving it the views were nice the trail was technical
without being unfun the ground was wet but not soggy and
there were tons of additional trails that had been marked by other writers
eventually we came across two separate offshoot trails one going up the hill we
were facing and one going down to the right
they were both marked with ends at such-and-such Creek signs that had been
made from plywood and spray-paint and propped against trees after consulting
the map we concluded that they probably did one trail went over the hill and the
other more or less went down the side into a small valley and around I wanted
to go low Matt wanted to go high so he split up and decided to meet at the
creek my ride was nice for the most part though it did become very gravely in
steep at times and I reached the bottom of the little valley soon I could see an
open clearing at the end of the tunnel of trees I was in and as I rode up I
could hear what I thought to be Matt's engine but when I pulled out of the
trees and into the clearing by the creek I saw that it wasn't a dirt bike but a
gas-powered generator it was powering what looked like an old stove that sat
under the overhang of a windowless shack made out of plywood and two-by-fours
next to the makeshift house was the truck we had seen earlier
I killed my engine not wanting whoever was inside to hear me and moved in a bit
closer I didn't get too close but even from where I stood probably 50 yards or
more away I could smell something I could see that there was a big soup pot
on the stove which was boiling what I can only assume was bleach judging by
the containers that were strewn about all over the place that's when I saw a
guy come running out from behind his Shack shotgun in hand looking at the
woods near the other side of the clearing and he was screaming what the
fuck do you think you're doing at that moment I heard Matt's bike roar
to life and immediately saw him tearing out of the tree line beyond the Shack he
saw me and as he rode towards me at full tilt
I hear him screaming at the top of his lungs he has a gun get the fuck out of
here luckily my
started on the first kick and I was able to spin the bike around and tear out of
there right on Matt's tail I don't think I've ever gone so fast through trails
that steep and technical in my life but somehow we made it out without either of
us going down we got back to the truck in under an hour and immediately noticed
that ours was no longer the only one in the parking lot that goddamn piece of
junk pickup had beat us there he must have had a shortcut to the logging road
and the driver was now just staring at us hoping that he wouldn't approach us
since we were right off a decently populated Highway we quickly loaded our
stuff and left but he followed and it was more than an hour before we were
able to lose him at a stoplight the local police were called but they pretty
much told us that they wouldn't be looking into it because if they looked
into every report like ours they'd never be doing anything else
needless to say we won't be riding around there again any time soon
you
when I was around four years old I had an experience that is forever changed my
life and belief in the paranormal this is one of if not the oldest memory of my
childhood I'm nearly thirty years old at this
point anyway during this time I was being instructed by my parents to learn
to sleep alone in my bedroom previously I was allowed to sleep in their bed this
did not sit well with me as with most children
I had an irrational fear of the dark and being alone during the night but they
insisted and so I would be laid to bed fairly early by adult standards around 8
or 9 p.m. since it was still early evening for them they would go about
their business and be doing things in the living room where I could still see
lights and hear the sounds of the household this was comforting enough for
me knowing others were around and awake made me feel safe I drifted off to sleep
while the ambient noise and light was still around and that's the last thing I
remember until the encounter suddenly I was jolted from my sleep and
the house was black my room in the whole house was dead quiet to the point of
hearing that ringing noise that occurs when no other sound is being made I was
instantly on edge and afraid with heightened senses and an acute awareness
of my surroundings I'm not sure what woke me up but I was terrified my bed
faced the doorway to my room which opened up into a small hallway for a few
minutes i sat up straight in bed and looked at the doorway I was compelled to
look in that direction it's almost as if I was instinctually anticipating
something or someone to walk from the hallway into my room
lo and behold that is exactly what occurred a few moments later the first
thing to appear in tewevision was a bony deformed hand and arm and in an instant
it disappeared and the next a skeletal woman's profile with a torn dress and
disheveled hair another disappearance and it reappeared now facing me with an
outstretched hand Natha gave an empty eye sockets this
apparition was moving in what seemed like the flash of a camera the only way
I can describe it would be quickly disappearing and reappearing having
repositioned and moved like being in a strobe light another reason I liken this
to camera flashing is because of her color
it wasn't paler green like I've heard other stories describe some ghosts as no
red eyes or shadowy amorphous shape this thing this woman was clearly defined in
shape and detail but her color was like when you see a flash of light or stare
at the Sun that multicolor that shows up in the back of your eyes when he
reopened them she made it about halfway into my room before I cowered under the
covers expecting the worst but then nothing happened she had been moving
toward me and should have reached me but she never did I waited for what seemed
like forever with my eyes closed but nothing after a while I worked up
the courage to leave my covers and look at my surroundings again the ghost was
gone or at least not in my room but I didn't stick around to find out what
would happen if I stayed I bolted to my parents room and spent the rest of the
night there I told my parents the next morning and
we had the house blessed and I did not have any more experiences at least
nothing as vivid or definitive as what I saw that night but this all bugs me
because I was so young I wasn't old enough to be exposed to anything that
would put that image in my head I had not seen any scary movies or even knew
very well what a ghost was or did it was terrifying
since this experience I've believed in the paranormal I feel there are so many
things that we can't explain

Hillary Supporter Yells 'F**K Donald Trump', Urinates On Police Officers! But Cops Got Last LAUGH! - Duration: 3:35.
Hillary Supporter Yells 'F**K Donald Trump', Urinates On Police Officers!
But Cops Got Last LAUGH!
20-year-old Joseph Murphy was arrested near a Disney property for allegedly being way
too drunk.
But that's not the worst part!
What he did next is so stupid, that you'd have to think this was his first time drinking
and he's still butt-hurt over the election.
He was arrested for being way too drunk, but that escalated quickly.
He was apprehended, cussed out cops, and was on his way to the station.
The ride there got really weird.
The drunken suspect began banging his head on the partition, tried choking himself like
a 50 Shades of Grey video, and was yelling "POLICE BRUTALITY" and also threw a "f*ck
Trump" in the mix while hurting himself.
When they arrived at the station, he banged his head on a car window and began peeing.
Not so much in his favor, but possibly a little bit funny, he also peed on a cop's leg.
I bet he felt great when he woke up the next morning with a wrap sheet that included being
a peabody.
Either this guy is a crazy maniac liberal, or the weasel-brained fella allegedly imbibed
too many adult beverages that took his behavior to a "whole 'nother level."
When you're arrested, for anything, just be nice and don't beat yourself up in the
back of the police cruiser.
It's not worth it.
You look crazy.
You're not going to catch a magic break where the courts believe the cops did this
to you, especially since there's probably a video of this floating around somewhere.
Not only that, but the forensics investigations squad have seen it all.
They can tell when a 20-year-old inflicts his own drunken injury.
Don't act stupid.
Don't beat yourself up.
Don't pee on cops.
If you're intoxicated anywhere near Disney, then focus on trying to make out with one
of the Princess actress when she's done her shift.
Even if you don't succeed, it's better than getting yourself arrested for going crazy
and peeing on an officer.
More From Click Orlando: A 20-year-old man was arrested on Disney property early New
Year's Day, accused of yelling profanities at law enforcement officers and urinating
on a trooper's leg.
The man, who initially refused to give his name but was later identified as Joseph Murphy,
was arrested Sunday near Disney Springs and faces charges of battery on an officer, indecent
exposure of sexual organs and resisting an officer without violence.
According to an Orange County charging affidavit, a Florida Highway Patrol trooper assisted
another trooper, who had placed Murphy in hand restraints on a sidewalk at Buena Vista
Drive.
The first trooper said he was arresting Murphy for disorderly intoxication, the report stated.
The second trooper said Murphy reeked of alcohol.
Murphy was placed in the trooper's patrol cruiser, where he began banging his head against
a partition and tried to choke himself, the report said.
Murphy was yelling "police brutality" as he kept banging his head, the affidavit
said.
Murphy then began yelling obscenities, including "(expletive) Donald Trump," the report
stated.
At the Orange County Jail, Murphy banged his head against a car window and began urinating
on the floor, officials said.
He then turned around and urinated on one of the trooper's pants, leaving a large
wet spot on his uniform, officials said.

John Bolton Goes NUCLEAR – Drops Nuke on Barack Obama - Duration: 2:37.
John Bolton Goes NUCLEAR – Drops Nuke on Barack Obama
Last week, Donald Trump announced that he had chosen former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N.
John Bolton to succeed U.S. Army Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster as head of the National Security
Council and chief foreign policy adviser.
Now, Bolton has already made it clear that he is planning to make some big changes at
Trump's White House.
Conservative Tribune reported that rumors have spread through the White House that Bolton
is planning to "clean house," and holdovers from Barack Obama's administration are said
to be the first ones on the chopping block.
"Bolton can and will clean house," stated one former White House official, while former
official warned: "Everyone who was there during Obama years should start packing their
sh**."
Others that are said to be "targeted" by Bolton are people who have been "disloyal"
to Trump, those suspected or found to have made unauthorized leaks to the media and even
some who were brought in under McMaster but not considered to be in line with Trump's
agenda.
Though Bolton is planning to bring his own team in right away, it could take some time
before he is able to truly "purge" the NSC of Obama holdovers and McMaster loyalists
and put all of the people he wants in place.
This comes after South Carolina GOP Sen. Lindsey Graham backed Bolton as a national security
adviser, arguing that he is the right wingman for President Trump when he meets with North
Korean leader Kim Jung Un.
"So when President Trump meets Kim Jong-un, his national security adviser will be with
him," Graham told Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures."
"And the North Koreans know, without a doubt, that John Bolton sees their nuclear program
as a threat to the United States and will strongly advise the president to use military
force if he has to, which means it's less likely we will."
"John Bolton sees North Korea for the threat they are," Graham added.
Trump just ordered around $60 billion in tariffs levied on Chinese imports, following an investigation
into intellectual property theft.
"The president ran a campaign that China treats," Graham said.
"I don't blame them.
I blame us.
So you cannot be surprised that Donald Trump would do what he said he would do.
And from my point of view, it's welcome news."

I Wish I Never Started Cutting Myself - Duration: 2:58.
if I could go back in time and tell my younger self one thing it would be to
never start cutting myself. When I was in my second year of high school and the
stresses that were put on me to succeed and get certain grades in all my classes,
kind of got to me. I was never a great student, I was never good at tests I was
a C student at best. When I cut myself for the first time, I kind of thought, "hey
this works. I don't feel awful anymore." And I didn't realize how hard it would
be to keep them covered all the time. If somebody saw them I would just say like,
"Oh my cat scratched me", or something like that. It got really hard during gym class.
Self-harm is an addiction. Once you start it's nearly impossible to stop. It's been
almost 10 years since I've started it's still happening. If something goes wrong
at work or if I fail a test, cutting myself is the very first thing that
comes to mind. And that's a very scary thing to realize and face. A few years
ago my parents found out what I was doing and my mom yelled at me saying
that she didn't bring me into this world for me to cut myself up. Hearing that
kind of made me face myself and realize like what I was doing is not only
harmful for me but harmful for everyone around me.
I've always been ashamed of this harmful habit, but you know what I'm doing my
best to get better and stop it's just difficult when the smallest thing can
land you right back into that headspace. I still have the scars and looking at
them is very painful. But scars fade eventually. I may not be able to fully
fix myself right now, but I'm trying. And I want to at least help those around me
who are suffering. if you're ever thinking or considering doing self-harm,
please don't it's a slippery dangerous slope that you do not want to go down.
Please talk to someone talk to a loved one get help just don't don't start.

love Andrew. Hoo Roo loves Arthur, and Arthur doesn't even love Hoo Roo. Arthur loves me!
But I do not love Arthur! I love Clara! Oh, who am I kidding? Nobody loves me. Clara doesn't
love me. My doggie doesn't love me. My roommates, Harrison, Ian and Daniel, do not love me.
They are planning Andrew's bachelor party in my room. They are going to use my PlayStation 3
and beat all of my high scores. All of my food…they are using it to cater the wedding!
I have nothing to eat. Clara, I would have given you everything I have, but you already
took everything I have. Wait, is that Clara over there? No, that's Clara's sister, Sara.
Clara found out about my jar, all of my jars, and now she won't speak to me. She's going
to tell everyone about my jars. They cannot know about my jars! Clara, if you are watching
this, I need to tell you three things. I love you. Please do not tell anybody about my jars,
and please let me back into my house. I left so many things in there! Boo hoo.

"The Best Thing I've Seen So Far!" Audiences Love Anna Christie! - Duration: 2:16.
Ain't nothing wrong with me, is there?
You're looking hard enough.
Ain't gotta look much.
I got your number the second you stepped in the door.
That was the best ever!
We've been subscribers for two years and that's my favorite so far!
Well, I got yours, too, without no trouble.
You're me forty years from now!
Is that so?
I thought it was wonderful!
I have seen O'Neill plays before but only the big three and this was a revelation.
It's my old man I got to meet.
It's funny, too.
I ain't seen him since I was a kid; don't even know what he looks like.
Just had a letter every now and then.
There's always a concept or a theme or a question of morality that they're wrestling with the
entire play, which I thought was pretty deep and a testament to the writing and the acting!
I was a damn fool to bring you on voyage!
You talk, you act as if you was scared something was going to happen.
That's what really stuck with me: her resolve to be her own person and determine her own
life and where she was going.
I thought that it had quite a feminist undercurrent, yeah.
Hmh.
All you got to do is find the girl.
Maybe I have.
It was wonderful!
I think the big thing coming out of this for me was how amazing live theatre is and how
different it is from just going to a movie.
The acting and the energy is amazing!
When I was on the wind jammer, I went through a hundred storms worser than that!
Back then ships were ships and men that served on them were real men!
It was a great play, a great performance, and I'm so glad that we're close to the Lyric
and we come back here quite often because you always do a great job!
No, Anna, that old devil sea, she ain't God.

It's My 12 Year Anniversary in Tech Sales so I am Sharing the Secret To My Success - Duration: 3:02.
Today is April 10th 2018. I've been in the technology VAR world for
exactly 12 years today. April 10th 2006 is the day that I first started and I
wanted to take a moment to celebrate the 12 year anniversary that I've spent here
and share the most important instrumental
lesson that I've learned over those twelve twelve years. Before I got into tech
I was doing telemarketing where you know selling cable TV things like
that where you have to do 250 - 300 phone calls a day for minimum wage and then
when I had my interview at the first technology VAR that I worked for.
You know, at this point out making pretty much minimum wage, and I walked around seeing
people making a hundred to two hundred thousand dollars a year with their feet
on their desk - relaxed basically chilling out, being very non-excited,
being very complacent about the opportunity to make more money than I
thought was ever possible and in blew my mind. Here I walked in thinking that I
was under qualified, I had no college education, I have no business to business
experience, I was selling cable TV, before that I worked at a lumberyard, did
stand-up comedy, never made more than like eight - nine dollars an hour and then
I walk around I see a bunch of people with the opportunity that I considered
amazing and they were just relaxed and what I said is "You people are doing 25
phone calls a day I can do 300 phone calls a day. I can do I can fail 12 times
more than you and still be just as successful by outworking you by working
you into the ground" and what I have found out very quickly, it not only does
doing 12 times the amount of work catch you up and make you even but it gets
that snowball rolling for you so much faster than them that's why was it a
year or two I was the only one left out of the 17 left in my class that started and
a while it took me a few years I'm not easily been in the top 1% in the
technology Var industry for the last three or four or five years because
I've dominated on work, you gotta work hard. You gotta
be able to get up right away, get your goals down, hyper focus work on
efficiency, make as many calls as you can, I don't care if your company says you
got to do 50 phone calls a day, I want to know how many call it you can possibly
squeeze into the day. You do cold calling, you do social selling, you do LinkedIn
you do door-to-door, you pound, you network, you reach out to everybody you
possibly can. I don't care what excuse you possibly have why you can't be
successful if you're not in the top 1% it's your fault and nobody else is. I
don't care where you came from I don't care what your history is what your
background is what your education level is what your criminal history is the
only thing that matters is the value that you bring to the market on a every
single day basis. Nobody cares what you did yesterday
and nobody cares what you want to do tomorrow. What are you gonna bring today
that's gonna set you apart. Top your competition, when you have 15,000
competitors coming at you trying to get the same business as you, how are you
gonna set yourself apart? If you don't have those other advantages then there
has to be grueling hard consistent long-term work and you will
absolutely dominate.

True Scary Stories: VOL 15 - Duration: 28:19.
the year was 2010 I was a freshly divorced
23 year old living in northern Louisiana on my own in a two-story apartment with
my wonderful dog had moved in just a month prior and was enjoying the peace
and quiet a fresh start after an emotionally crippling time in my life it
was a pleasant Sunday afternoon summertime in Louisiana I decided to
escape the heat by staying inside to watch a few episodes of It's Always
Sunny with my dog Kingsley in my lap the Sun was shining through my windows which
in this complex took up half the living room wall floor to near ceiling I had
blinds but I had decided to adjust them so some natural light would come in now
the neighborhood wasn't so bad but it wasn't the best you definitely didn't
leave anything outside and you always lock your house in your car I had seen
my share of shady activity so regardless of the time of day my doors and windows
were locked it had also come to my attention that my axe had done drive-bys
of my new place and not wanting to be caught off guard I was constantly
checking that I had locked everything a beat-up car pulled into the parking lot
which I could see out of my peripheral vision across from a grassy area in
front of my building I didn't recognize the driver who stepped out and I guess I
didn't think anything of it at the time until he walked in front of my window
staring directly inside my living room the bushes in front of my windows were
maybe waist-high on me I'm five four so this man was staring
right at me we were keeping eye contact no blinking and there was no mistake he
saw was inside by myself from what I saw between the blinds he was easily six
feet tall heavyset bald with dark eyebrows and a goatee he wore a short
sleeve button up shirt over a dark t-shirt and jeans I had never seen him
in our complex before Kingsley's head shot up ears perked his first standing
up on his neck he was a friendly playful dog and loved
meeting everyone but when I felt a low grumble from his stomach when he bolted
up off the couch I knew this wasn't a stranger he wanted to meet my heart
raced and I felt my palms tingle with anxiety the door was locked no way he
could get in right wrong when I heard a key in the lock
I remember feeling many things at once my heart stopped and jumped in my throat
my scalp felt like it was on fire but my hands felt cold who was this guy
why of all fucking things did he have a key to my apartment I didn't have a gun
the front door was six feet to my left the kitchen was at least 15 to my right
I didn't have time to run and grab a knife I didn't have a baseball bat and
I'd out throwing my nearby shoes would deter a home intruder of his size the
door cracked open I panicked Kingsley let out the loudest bark I had
ever heard and didn't one leap was snarling at the door his teeth bared
ready to attack for the split second the door was open
I saw the man's eyes widen then he shut the door and he knocked I shit you not
this man knocked on the door after he had already opened it with a key somehow
had Kingsley was busy letting out vicious growls not acting at all like
the giant goofball I knew him to be I jumped up after him grabbed his collar
and with the other hand grabbed the doorknob and opened it just enough for
Kingsley to poke his head out can I help you with something my voice shook
anger and fear coursed through my veins I'm here to pick up my mail I'm
expecting a package I used to live here the man said matter-of-factly as if this
was something I should have known what the fuck
you don't live here anymore I live here I don't have your mail seriously our
mailboxes were at the apartment main office I was expecting a package from
FedEx I want my package he took a half step forward seeming
impatient angry expecting somehow that I would have his mysterious mail and
invite him in no actually three days prior FedEx did come by with an envelope
but as the name on it wasn't mine I didn't accept it they came by with
something a few days ago but it wasn't mine so I made them take it back his
face went red and he clenched his fists I'm starting to panic why would you do
that that is my package and I was expecting
it he exploded waving his arms as if I was to blame
Kingsley left up nearly dragging me out of the door I yanked him back and the
man continued his rant I can't believe you would do something so fucking stupid
now I have to go track it down myself do you know what a waste of time this is
I was frantic at this point I didn't know where this dude came from why he
still had a key to this place why when he saw me in the living room with a dog
he tried to come in and why of all things was he freaking out over a stupid
envelope look man I don't have your package just call fucking FedEx and take
care of it yourself the word sounded better in my head
out loud they sounded shaky and fearful and I knew my lack of courage was a
terrible disadvantage in this situation I can't believe this shit
he was completely red flailing around in rage you got to leave I yelped trying
with all my might to keep ahold of poor Kingsley I'm going to cover cops
I finally shouted out figuring this would deter the now furious stranger in
front of my door for a split second his eyes widened and he took a step back I
will be back he gulped and turned around Kingsley let out a few growls I patted
him and shut the door locking it unlocking then locking it again
I put him on a leash grabbed my keys and hurried to the front office I told them
what had just happened I let them know the police would be notified and
demanded they changed the locks and install a chain now no way I was waiting
for that psycho to come back he never did to this day regardless of where I
live I keep my car windows and doors locked and I double check when I leave
the house and go to bed thanks asshole it's been three years and
the paranoia persists
when I was in my early teens early eighties damn that makes me feel old we
lived in the Chattanooga Tennessee area one weekend I went with my church group
to do some overnight spelunking in one of the caves in the area having gone
into more commercialized caves in the past this trip was not what I had
expected as this cave entrance was a small opening in a group of rocks on the
side of a country road no markers or signs we hiked in for a few hours
through some challenging terrain and slept overnight then back out after
breakfast for a 13 year old boy it was a great adventure
muddy tight spaces to squeeze through stalagmites cave pulls with blind fish
the works there were about a dozen of us that went I was well until we were told
to go to bed for the night all flashlights were off and it was
completely black as we were deep in the cave system sometime during the night I
woke to something pulling on the foot end of my sleeping bag dragging me deep
into the black void at first I was annoyed more than anything as I thought
someone was pranking me I was also in the Boy Scouts as well with that
rambunctious group we were always pranking each other I fumbled in my
sleeping bag trying to find my flashlight to see who was doing this
before I could find it I realized I was speeding up next thing I know I was
sliding out of control down a slick damp clay pack till I did whatever I could to
stop I was digging my fingers in but it wasn't working I eventually did stop
when the hill flattened out I finally found my flashlight and looked around
everyone was fast asleep and to any commotion I caused wasn't noticed no
perpetrators were seen but I also discovered that I was about a foot away
from a very deep chasm had I gone over the edge of the cliff they would have
never found me for the following three decades I wrote the whole thing off
here's a few possible reasons this happened most likely I picked a spot
that was not as flat as I thought I might have tossed and
turned in my sleep and that activity could have been enough to kick-start the
potentially lethal slide but the batshit-crazy theory is that years later
I started watching paranormal shows some of the shows had some sort of deep earth
creatures that want to keep us out of their domain then I had a what-if moment
could it have been them was I attacked
about a year and a half ago I had some friends come over we'd been playing
Magic the Gathering for a while and had gotten bored so I figured I'd show them
this abandoned house about a mile away we called it the spook house it wasn't
really scary in the day but this was one I am making it all the more fun I had
planned to act like a tour guide for them
maybe even try to scare them a little even though the only scary thing I could
imagine was running into a method up homeless person we eventually get to the
house after 10 or 15 minutes and I begin my tour guide routine and it's important
to note you can only get in through the back the fronts boarded up and I don't
like vandalizing things so we're walking up the driveway to the back I'm looking
at them talking about the house with my back turn to the back door when my
friend gets this horrified look on his face and in kind of a whisper yell says
dude look so obviously I looked behind me and see what looks like a person
crawling out of the house on their hands and knees I could only see the front
half of it the thing then looks at us it has huge white eyes that pretty much
matched its skin it's extremely skinny it kind of reminded me of pictures of
Holocaust survivors it had no hair that I could tell but the moment was very
brief it stopped looking at us after a few seconds then bolted into the woods
behind the house needless to say we were all pretty terrified so we booked it
back to my house we stayed up all night talking on my front porch as we were
talking we heard branches breaking out past the back yard I'm not saying it was
related just a a strange coincidence that gave us yet
another scare I had no idea what skinwalkers were back then but I did
know about the rake I've honestly never been that terrified in my life we were
probably only 15 or 20 feet from it if anyone's interested I live in southeast
Indiana and have heard similar stories from other people
so when I was in my 20s ten years ago I moved to London I moved in with two
South African girls who were very sweet and nice and who really liked smoking
weed one thing I wasn't prepared for is that UK homes are cold so most people
have a hot water bottle and a blanket when they hang out at home anyway we
lived in this old Victorian flat on the high street on the top floor four
storeys up or so we had to climb up narrow winding stairs and then had to go
through three doors to get in one with iron bars and then there was a little
space big enough for a few people to stand and two other doors we told
ourselves it was to protect the fancy stained glass door then there was a
normal wooden door I come home from my job at the pub around 3:00 p.m. not
expecting anyone to be home I go straight to my room
throw my keys on the bed and start brushing my hair getting ready for my
next job gotta pay that London rent as I was brushing my hair I could have sworn
I heard something coming from the kitchen
I stopped I said hello and when nobody answered
I kept brushing my hair I heard a noise again and stopped it sounded like
someone wearing work boots walking in the kitchen carrying a hot-water bottle
that swishing sound it makes I freaked out and in a panic think grab something
sharp I grabbed the pen next to my keys on the bed not realising until later
that I should have grabbed the keys so that I could actually get out of those
three doors I run down the hall and up the four or five steps turn into the
next hall and go into the living room which was next to the doors I shut the
first door and sat against it so nobody can come in I'm holding my pen like a
maniac I had my phone on me and for some reason I didn't think to call the cops
but called my ex the only person I knew in London I guess because he knew where
I lived and could get the cops for me in case something happened before I could
call them next I hang up and call the cops they are on the way
I can't remember if I stayed on the phone or not but what happened next was
the heavy work boots started walking up the hall with quiet steps up the stairs
like they didn't want to be heard I could still hear the swishing as whoever
it was got to the other side of the door I was properly freaking out crying and
shaking I wanted to just jump out the window
there was a butcher shop on the ground floor and they let the cops into the
stairwell so that they could come up but of course they couldn't get through the
iron one they told me that I needed to get my keys so that I can open the door
I told them no the guys in there but they said either that or they'd have to
wait to get the tools to cut through the bars
she finally talks me into opening the door I do and can immediately feel the
air go flat nobody's there and I feel like I don't know like I was in another
level or slice of reality I run and get the keys and open the door six police
officers pour into the place I help them look everywhere for an intruder under
the beds in the closets etc they confirm that nobody could have gotten through
the window or back doors they were locked there was an attic but it was
really high up and there's no way to get up there they're standing in the kitchen
with me calming me down telling me it could have been a sound for my neighbors
it couldn't have been as we never heard them at all I noticed one of them
glancing behind me nonchalantly and it was only after they left that I realized
that behind me was my flatmates pot plant they must have thought I was
stoned and hearing things I wasn't what I heard was so real and it didn't even
cross my mind that it could be a ghost it felt more like the blurring of time
and space like someone who was alive or thought they were
you
it all started when a buddy of mine that I go to college with Matt wanted to skip
a day of class and take a week day trip up to pend oreille County to get some
late fall dirt biking in before it snowed and the season was officially
over we had gotten some writing done in the area before but instead of going to
our usual romping ground we opted to shoot for a lesser known trail that a
friend had told us about so early Tuesday morning we loaded up our bikes
into the truck consider out a map of the area that showed all the logging roads
and the few official dirt bike trails there were and headed out I want to
clarify that this was not private land were very careful to only ride on public
land where we are allowed to do so traffic was really light so we arrived
at the spot we were planning on parking the truck in only one and a half hours
which meant we had plenty of daylight to go out and ride though we both have
headlights on our bikes and had agreed that a little bit of darkness wouldn't
be allowed to put a damper on the fun after we unloaded we locked up the truck
wrote down the highway on the shoulder for about half a mile then turned off
onto the logging road this awesome trail supposedly split off of it was a tennis
mile ride down this logging road to get to the trailhead and we were probably a
little over halfway there when from behind us we hear a loud ass
engine this beater of a truck flies by us damn near hitting Matt and then
disappears around the next turn and it's not like Matt and I were going slow we
aren't pro riders or anything but we're definitely not bad the last time I had
checked we were doing 37 which is pretty fast on a crappy abandoned road after
this Matt stopped and killed his engine so we could make sure I knew just how
pissed he was did you see that fucking shit dude almost killed me
we decided that while we were already stopped we would take a quick break
drink some water then get back after it and get back after it we did we found
the trailhead and we're loving it the views were nice the trail was technical
without being unfun the ground was wet but not soggy and
there were tons of additional trails that had been marked by other writers
eventually we came across two separate offshoot trails one going up the hill we
were facing and one going down to the right
they were both marked with ends at such-and-such Creek signs that had been
made from plywood and spray-paint and propped against trees after consulting
the map we concluded that they probably did one trail went over the hill and the
other more or less went down the side into a small valley and around I wanted
to go low Matt wanted to go high so he split up and decided to meet at the
creek my ride was nice for the most part though it did become very gravely in
steep at times and I reached the bottom of the little valley soon I could see an
open clearing at the end of the tunnel of trees I was in and as I rode up I
could hear what I thought to be Matt's engine but when I pulled out of the
trees and into the clearing by the creek I saw that it wasn't a dirt bike but a
gas-powered generator it was powering what looked like an old stove that sat
under the overhang of a windowless shack made out of plywood and two-by-fours
next to the makeshift house was the truck we had seen earlier
I killed my engine not wanting whoever was inside to hear me and moved in a bit
closer I didn't get too close but even from where I stood probably 50 yards or
more away I could smell something I could see that there was a big soup pot
on the stove which was boiling what I can only assume was bleach judging by
the containers that were strewn about all over the place that's when I saw a
guy come running out from behind his Shack shotgun in hand looking at the
woods near the other side of the clearing and he was screaming what the
fuck do you think you're doing at that moment I heard Matt's bike roar
to life and immediately saw him tearing out of the tree line beyond the Shack he
saw me and as he rode towards me at full tilt
I hear him screaming at the top of his lungs he has a gun get the fuck out of
here luckily my
started on the first kick and I was able to spin the bike around and tear out of
there right on Matt's tail I don't think I've ever gone so fast through trails
that steep and technical in my life but somehow we made it out without either of
us going down we got back to the truck in under an hour and immediately noticed
that ours was no longer the only one in the parking lot that goddamn piece of
junk pickup had beat us there he must have had a shortcut to the logging road
and the driver was now just staring at us hoping that he wouldn't approach us
since we were right off a decently populated Highway we quickly loaded our
stuff and left but he followed and it was more than an hour before we were
able to lose him at a stoplight the local police were called but they pretty
much told us that they wouldn't be looking into it because if they looked
into every report like ours they'd never be doing anything else
needless to say we won't be riding around there again any time soon

when I was around four years old I had an experience that is forever changed my
life and belief in the paranormal this is one of if not the oldest memory of my
childhood I'm nearly thirty years old at this
point anyway during this time I was being instructed by my parents to learn
to sleep alone in my bedroom previously I was allowed to sleep in their bed this
did not sit well with me as with most children
I had an irrational fear of the dark and being alone during the night but they
insisted and so I would be laid to bed fairly early by adult standards around 8
or 9 p.m. since it was still early evening for them they would go about
their business and be doing things in the living room where I could still see
lights and hear the sounds of the household this was comforting enough for
me knowing others were around and awake made me feel safe I drifted off to sleep
while the ambient noise and light was still around and that's the last thing I
remember until the encounter suddenly I was jolted from my sleep and
the house was black my room in the whole house was dead quiet to the point of
hearing that ringing noise that occurs when no other sound is being made I was
instantly on edge and afraid with heightened senses and an acute awareness
of my surroundings I'm not sure what woke me up but I was terrified my bed
faced the doorway to my room which opened up into a small hallway for a few
minutes i sat up straight in bed and looked at the doorway I was compelled to
look in that direction it's almost as if I was instinctually anticipating
something or someone to walk from the hallway into my room
lo and behold that is exactly what occurred a few moments later the first
thing to appear in tewevision was a bony deformed hand and arm and in an instant
it disappeared and the next a skeletal woman's profile with a torn dress and
disheveled hair another disappearance and it reappeared now facing me with an
outstretched hand Natha gave an empty eye sockets this
apparition was moving in what seemed like the flash of a camera the only way
I can describe it would be quickly disappearing and reappearing having
repositioned and moved like being in a strobe light another reason I liken this
to camera flashing is because of her color
it wasn't paler green like I've heard other stories describe some ghosts as no
red eyes or shadowy amorphous shape this thing this woman was clearly defined in
shape and detail but her color was like when you see a flash of light or stare
at the Sun that multicolor that shows up in the back of your eyes when he
reopened them she made it about halfway into my room before I cowered under the
covers expecting the worst but then nothing happened she had been moving
toward me and should have reached me but she never did I waited for what seemed
like forever with my eyes closed but nothing after a while I worked up
the courage to leave my covers and look at my surroundings again the ghost was
gone or at least not in my room but I didn't stick around to find out what
would happen if I stayed I bolted to my parents room and spent the rest of the
night there I told my parents the next morning and
we had the house blessed and I did not have any more experiences at least
nothing as vivid or definitive as what I saw that night but this all bugs me
because I was so young I wasn't old enough to be exposed to anything that
would put that image in my head I had not seen any scary movies or even knew
very well what a ghost was or did it was terrifying
since this experience I've believed in the paranormal I feel there are so many
things that we can't explain

Body language tip on storytelling - Duration: 1:06.
Hello, I'm here in Edinburgh. It's the break of my performance and I am in the backstage room.
And the first thing, we were talking about here in Edinburgh was:
If you are telling a story don't show off! And I gave them a metaphor, a picture. And that is:
Imagine you would be in a pub with friends and you would tell a story, a content or an experience to them. How would you act?
If you are doing it too pathetically - too much showing off, your friends would think "What's wrong with you?". So loosen up a bit.
Tell it as if you would have drunken one beer.

number 19th overall with a trading volume of almost half a billion dollars
four hundred twenty four million dollars in trading volume last 24 hours and
that's because of all everyone buying into the buying into the rumor no one
really knows who the partner is with except for them I guess no one really
knows the partners with it could be game-changing but the reason I want to
talk about this is to keep an eye out because as everyone always says in
crypto by the rumors and actually say this in stocks too in most investments
by the rumors sell the new so be careful when it comes to the actual announcement
day and when everything gets announced because things usually don't go up at
this rate and never come back down so I just want to keep that clear make sure
you guys and I am gonna keep you guys updated on what the partnership April is
when it gets revealed but for now I just want to say make sure you have your
trade set make sure you have stop-loss is safe you know how to work those just
to minimize your risk if you're buying to hold for a long time again verge is a
privacy point I think privacy coins could do very well in 2018 but if you
guys are buying into it for that reason then I would suggest you know just kind
of enjoy your position but if you guys are looking to make a quick trade and
you guys want to get out before it starts to correct start thinking about
when that is right now and usually not every time but usually this happens one
or two days before the news is actually announced because everyone's made such
big gains already from the you know here or here all the way up to here people
have already made so many gays so much gains that they are going to start
selling so make sure to keep an eye out on that I don't want to see you guys
lose money but and when it comes to like trades like this sell the news
either rumor is probably the safest thing you can do now
ripple is another one I wanted to talk about so you guys know ripples under 50
cents and there's actually been some pretty interesting news that's been
coming out recently that I've been reading into which is kind of cool but
first of all wrinkles chart you guys can see has been plummeting this whole time
it's barely up anything today it's at 48 and a half cents from an all-time high
of like three point three point one three point six five dollars so it is
down so so much one of the biggest drops out of the top on all points out of the
top crypto currencies still on a 19 billion dollar market cap still ranked
number three but it is falling so so so so much and the news that I found that I
thought was really interesting is this is rizz ripple about to become another
etherium so they found out on Ripple XR piece they found out that the ripple XR
PS ledger might be an accidental aetherium so it's an open source and a
decentralized platform and apparently they can host I SEOs through their
ledger which is actually really really interesting so for only the second time
in its history an attempt at tokenizing ripple XR PS ledger through an initial
coin offering is being seriously offered by a group not formally associated with
the company now there have been people from the company saying that they're not
really interesting and they're not really interested in that here we go but
ripple isn't interested in promoting or supporting icos on the ledger but it's
cool to see that there's been this kind of area with ripple that they can
actually host icos and become another ripple now obviously in that category
you would have yeah you have you have to compete against the likes of Ripple neo
and so on and so on but there it is some pretty steep competition however that
might be a point to look at when it comes to ripple kind of making a
reversal maybe if they decide to implement this now by the looks of it
they are not looking at taking this seriously another company is thinking of
doing it but it shows the use case of ripple now at 48 cents ripple does seem
outrageously under even though I personally you guys know
don't own any ripple ripple does seem still very undervalued and with news
like that I'm interested to see where they take it I know again that news by
no means is game-changing news groundbreaking news it's gonna moon
that's not what I'm saying I just think the idea is interesting and they after
the fact that I didn't have I had no idea about it I don't know if you guys
did but I had no idea about this whatsoever that they could actually do
that so pretty interesting now another thing to check out is the volume of
ripple is like a third of the volume of verge right now which I thought was
absolutely crazy I just noticed the ripple being the third ring verge being
19th ranked but yeah again if things are starting to level off it looks like
again this is happening with the whole market maybe in time for a reversal but
I think ripple buying in at this price feels if you interested I know I get
questions all the time on this for those of you interested buying in ripple at
this time it's probably not a terrible terrible idea it will probably make a
good amount of recovery you might when the market recovers and when the market
hasn't reversal but guys again don't forget I'm not a financial advisor and
this is not financial advice this is just my opinion on these altcoin so make
sure you do your own research before you put your money and anything and don't
just listen to someone on the internet with their opinions right but um okay
let us look at the technical analysis now before we end off the video again
things are moving relatively sideways one thing that I did want to point out
though that thought was kind of interesting that I noticed is if we put
a line right here we are kind of trading in towards this intersection right here
hoping to see a breakout at some point between these two lines so that's kind
of what I'm hoping for again things are just moving sideways we've kept up this
is basically the 260 billion dollar mark cap 200 between 250 and 275 market cap
with Bitcoin between the prices of you know six thousand six hundred and all
the way up to seven thousand four hundred but roughly between like six
thousand eight hundred and seven thousand to one hundred basically is the
price that we're kind of floating in between now this is just we've had some
days of green some days of red but overall it hasn't been too
much and it hasn't been enough to be you know super super happy about we're still
waiting for that breakout period and we came close to 20 day moving average
yesterday or at least closer to the 20-day moving average but now we are
back down here the day ended over here and now again we're trading near the
$6,900 mark I believe Bitcoin is six thousand
nine hundred eighteen point nine dollars on coin base right now so again not too
much to look at when it comes to technical technical analysis today we're
kind of still waiting for a move so kind yes so not really just too much I can
say other than just kind of showing you guys and keeping us moving daily
checking it out and seeing what's happening but still waiting for that
breakout I think the next move is in the upward direction a lot of people think
it's in the downward direction I guess we will see personally though like I
said I think it's going up so guys hopefully you enjoyed the video if you

TRUMP JUST PARDONED HIM – HILLARY CLINTON PANICKING - Duration: 11:26.
TRUMP JUST PARDONED HIM – HILLARY CLINTON PANICKING
Hillary Clinton is undoubtedly in full panic mode after learning who President Donald Trump
just pardoned.
The Washington Times reported that Trump just pardoned former Navy sailor Kristian Saucier,
who had been convicted of reaking laws by taking a photo inside a nuclear submarine.
Saucier's case made headlines because the prosecution of him contrasted sharply with
the Obama Justice Department decision not to bring charges against Clinton for mishandling
classified material on her secret email server.
During his trial, Saucier's lawyer unsuccessfully used a "Hillary Clinton defense" that
argued his client couldn't be held to a higher legal standard than Clinton was.
A federal judge rejected this defense, however, and sentenced Saucier to one year in prison
and a $100 fine.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders announced the pardon on Friday, mentioning
that Saucier had an otherwise exemplary service in the Navy.
"Mr. Saucier was 22 years old at the time of his offenses and has served out his 12-month
sentence.
He has been recognized by his fellow service members for his dedication, skill and patriotic
spirit," said Sanders.
"The president is appreciative of Mr. Saucier's service to the country."
Saucier confessed to taking half-dozen photos of the USS Alexandria's classified propulsion
system while working as a machinist in its engine room in 2009.
In May of 2016, he plead guilty to one count of unauthorized possession and retention of
national defense information.
"When Kris gets home from work, when he gets to the door, I'm going to be a little
emotional," said his wife Sadie.
"I can't believe it happened, I don't think it's set in yet."
She added that she notified her husband of the pardon via text message as he drove his
garbage truck through a mountainous area with poor reception.
"I just was able to say 'Hey' via a text message, 'You got a pardon.'
All he said was, 'What!' with a big exclamation point," she said.
"I am very grateful.
It's going to be a huge for our family.
And a huge reality when probation calls and the ankle monitor is taken off, that's going
to be a big one."
This is bad news for Clinton, as it indicates the Trump administration may eventually go
after her.
SHARE this story if you think Hillary Clinton should be investigated and LOCKED UP!

WHAT PREVENTS YOU FROM REACHING YOUR GOALS - Duration: 3:21.
Ahhhh, self-censorship.
Some call it shyness, others false modesty, but for me, it is nothing more than COWARDICE.
Why ?
Because when you censor yourself, you just choose easiness, which is not even trying.
"Louise it is so cool what you are doing you should definitely write a book !"
"Oh noooo, are you kidding, I am not a writer at all, I can't !!!"
Of course because if you do not try, you cannot fail, right ??
The problem is, sometimes it is so internalized that you do not even realize it.
Do you want to know if it is your case ?
How many of you do not participate to huge incredible giveaways to win a heavenly week in the Maldives because you think you have no chance ?
.... Me.
This is why we need to do something about it !
Because otherwise, you are going to miss AMAZING opportunities.
"Louise, look, it is incredible ! They are looking for a pale, blue-eyed, 20 years-old woman for the new Spielberg movie ! You need to try it out !"
Lol but not at all ! First, I am no actress, second, I am soon to turn 21 and third, I do not have pale skin, I just have "fresh" skin as my grandma says - it is VERY different.
And actually, I had a "Aha" moment one day, at a big French event called Viva Tech.
One of the company was organizing a "Wishmaton", where you woud basically enter and film yourself making a vow, and they would pick one lucky winner every day.
And the first two days, I did not participate, convinced that I had no chance anyway.
And the last day, I thought to myself "Ok Louise, you got to participate or you will regret it. Just think and try to come up with something smart"
And so I participated, and then made a tweet (even though my Twitter is personal and I literally have only friends following me on there lol) about their Wishmaton, saying it was one of the best attraction at the event
And guess what...
I WAS PICKED UP THE LAST DAY MUHAHAHA
SO then I got the chance to Brunch at one of Paris' most famous palace hahaha but it is another story !! (Of course my vow was food related lol)
But all of this to tell you that is is exactly the same in real life.
Rather than never trying, and tell yourself you have no chance, TRY IT, give the best you have to give, and I am going to end on the sentence I HATE THE MOST
AFTER ALL, YOU HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE ;)))
"Allo, Spielberg ? It is Louise Aubery calling. How are you :) ?"

Dawn Allen NEW MAJOR Details REVEALED! Last Bus METAHUMAN? - The Flash 4x17 Tease - Duration: 7:53.
alright let's run it again we got to make this work does he know that Ralph
Ralph what one more time please follow Barry's plan you know the one where I
spent hours of my precious time programming realistic holograms for you
which bravo on that by the way thank you look just morph yourself into Barry
they'll be two flashes thinker won't know which one is which and will confuse
him kind of a her actually Ralph you're missing the point of this exercise no I
get it I was just doing a little improv but this isn't stand-up comedy yeah I
know that Avenue should let it play out would it work you could then some improv
of your own comedy comes in threes man we're trying to protect you the Vosges
coming we need to be ready all of us okay I still think it's a pretty good
plan I hide my face I saved my ass what do you remember Barry taking her into
flash time trying to freeze the bomb and killer frost being worried worried about
what not dying about me killer frost and I go and ruin it me okay don't worry
about it I just get so clumsy when I'm nervous
are you nervous about um I'm supposed to be meeting some people here for the
first time and I've got the jitters which is what this place is called
appname don't you I do it's funny you know you get nervous you get the jitters
you go for coffee and the caffeine acts as a stimulant which makes Jinky which
could also be known as the jitters exactly okay
we're gonna go okay yeah um I'm really very very sorry
don't worry about it good luck with your meeting I hope it goes well Thanks it
did
what is good YouTube
Warstu here with a video on the flash season for now if you
watch the flash season 4 this is a channel for you we go over theories
breakdown f episodes news and all up-and-coming things so subscribe if you
are new guys so we've got some really important information which I didn't see
coming so Jessica Parker Kennedy plays the
character that is called a mystery girl coffee shop girl juice girl the girl
that first appeared in the crisis and earth X crossover working at Barry
Allen's wedding reception now we've got some really major news why so instant
weekly did an interview and they were asked questions so this is a question
let's talk about mystery girl played by Jessica Parker Kennedy can you tease a
little more about how the story might come to a head and if we should be
worried about her being a foe instead of a friend it's just interesting because I
made a theory Fame really she could be a villain and the common theory is that
she's actually Dawn Allen from the tornado twins although there's a lot of
evidence about no one's really right so the answers this the mystery go in our
story is kind of a fun one a role is especially to lay down these little
clues these little bread crumbs for the viewers that ultimately start paying off
in terms of establishing a trajectory to Season 5 so that's what's going to be a
big payoff when we reach season finale so this tells us the viewers the fans
because yes I might make youtube videos but I'm still a fan this tells us that
we're definitely going to be seeing mystery girl again we know she right
it's the same speed for cymbals that Barry Allen wrote when he came out of
the Speed Force prison so who is she and why is she coming out so it's clearly
they're setting up something in season 5 maybe she is dawn Allen maybe setting up
the tornado twins maybe she's got a big story out coming because it did say a
big payoff for season 5 and then it went on to say do you guys know who she is or
were you trying to piece together little breadcrumbs as well as you went on and
got the script and then the response was this I tried to be wonderfully eager and
arrogant ignorant sorry about all the rumors and reveals all that stuff that
actors talk actors love to talk actors I love to talk out loud
so I can't help it that some of the reels and resolutions have made their
way into my brain now I know it took me a while to figure out but enough
of my co-workers torkoal and now I know the secret of who she is and her role is
in this story and it's lovely it really is a cute it's really cute it's cute I'm
excited about it so same this mystery girl jitters girl coffee shop girl story
line is cute is very interesting because the last time we've seen her she looked
a very sinister after talking it to Caitlyn after Caitlyn wished her good
luck with her meeting of seat when she was talking to Harry Wells and like Kate
and Frost she was talking about them so at the moment she's met everyone except
for Irish West and yo West and Cecile I think but the most important thing is
her meeting iris West so guys let me know in the comment box down below do
you think she's actually gonna be dawn Allen and are you surprised that
potentially she could be in season 5 so the flash returns tonight with episode
17 and new and annoyed and the synopsis reads like this the flash and the
elongated man joining forces to take down well take down all the remaining
meta bus but bus metas in town sounds like a good idea but in episode 17 of
the viewers could see tension brewing between the two as Barry feels like Rao
is no longer concern actually it's not the synopsis is in my notes but yeah
essentially they're gonna butt heads because in the clip I played before you
see that Barry's trying to help him and he's kind of like tried to make jokes
about everything we will be introduced to a character who could control gravity
and it might see the flash fall into his death but the main stars not gonna die
so Noel Lloyd is tonight's episode guys it's gonna be very interested and also
just one last bit they are asked a question in this interview team flash
finally thinks it's gotten ahead of devote but could this be exactly what
Deveaux has won notice why I think you've hit the nail on the head and
there's no telling what part of team flash actions are pre-designed in
Devoe's planet strategy DeVoe could have already foreseen the outcome what makes
especially sinister is that he doesn't possess the emotional attachment that I
think can serve as a hindrance to team flash efforts to stop the vote he's cold
he's counted and he will murder or alienate whoever he has to in or in
order to completely complices tasks sorry guys I've got been cold a
moment so so that's quite interesting everyone thinks the de veau is a boring
villain and he is a boring villain but it's interesting that he will kill
anyone in an instance kind of interesting so lately goes though guys
are team flash getting ahead of themselves is Harry Wells getting a bit
too obsessed no see in tonight's episode we will see breacher returning he's
gonna need Cisco's help obviously gipsy won't be near so jessica is on taking
season 2 which is a completely different show so based on the sneak preachers
coming to get his powers back he needs some tests running on his powers because
this villain that kind of had hundreds of zombies basically hidden his powers
so it's gonna be a very interesting episode to know that guy hopefully
although I hate to say this it looks like the Supergirl return episode next
week it looks like a bunch of a filler episode this late into the game we can't
really be doing like filler episodes because let's be honest guys this season
that hasn't me very good a set for the mystery girls stuff so anyway guys like
I said a solid video if you're into the flash TV show this is a channel view we
do videos like this all week long primarily a flash at the moment we do
arrow Supergirl and let stuff like that and also Marvel Avengers infinity war
and the kind of Marvel stuff as well driven to comic book related TV shows
movies maybe think about subscribing guys and please like subscribe and
comment and I will catch you in another video

Sony a6000 screen protector glass - Duration: 2:40.
Hello.
Every owner of a digital camera
wants to keep it in good condition.
I bought a protective glass kit from the Chinese and now I'll try to install it myself.
Here it is written that this is a LCD Screen Protector
designed for Sony a6500
This glass is compatible with Sony a6000
a6300 and a6500
On the package you can see what layers this protective glass consists of
and what is included in the kit.
Here is a short manual that shows actions step by step.
I will describe it in this video.
The package include:
the first item is a Wet cleaning wipe - it will be remove dust from the camera's screen.
the second item is a dust absorber
The dust-absorber was smaller than the screen size,
therefore as a result it was spoiled
Instead of this dust absorber, I decided to wipe the screen with the Microfiber cloth that comes in the kit.
the third item is a LCD Screen Protector,
The screen of the camera perfectly clean and next step is installing a LCD Screen Protector.
First of all, I put it on the screen.
In this position I fix this screen with scotch tape.
It was a difficult to wipe the screen ideally but i see that it is clean.
Now it is necessary to peel off the protective film from the LCD Screen Protector
and carefully apply the film to the screen of the camera itself to spread evenly over the entire screen area.
the last item is Microfiber cleaning cloth
- we are wiping the already installed protective glass.
Now you can clean the protective glass!
Thank you for your attention,
ask questions in the comments, subscribe to my channel.
Good Luck!

What If There Were No Taxes? - Duration: 10:05.
What if there were no taxes?
The first federal income tax in the U.S. was implemented to support the Civil War, so what
was the government relying on before then?
And how would no federal income taxes affect the U.S. today?
If the old adage remains true and the only certain things in life are death and taxes,
then it's no wonder a lot of us feel like we're dying around April 15th.
But even though taxes have been a cornerstone of the United States (and prior to that the
colonies of the Americas) since its inception, federal income taxes weren't always a part
of that equation.
So for this episode, I wanted to dive into an alternative history that asked the question:
what would the U.S. look like if we didn't have a federal income tax?
So for the first part of this experiment we have to ask:
What preceded the federal income tax?
And how did it come into place?
Well as I mentioned before, taxes are even more American than your favorite flavor of pie.
There were colonial taxes imposed on the 13 colonies by Great Britain's Parliament but
they weren't based directly on the amount of income a person made per year.
Instead, they were focused on the indirect taxation of goods and services, like the the
Stamp Act of 1765 that taxed all paper goods.
Some of these were designed to collect revenue to enrich the Crown and pay for military defense
in the colonies.
But they weren't exactly popular, leading to cries of "no taxation without representation!"
and a bunch of tea getting tipped overboard into the Boston Harbor, among other things.
But once the 13 colonies became an independent nation, they didn't do away with taxes all together.
Because waging war and building a central government is kind of a spendy business.
So they looked to other ways of using indirect taxation to cover these new costs and also
to pay off some of the debts they had inherited from the Revolution.
This included the estate tax of 1797, which took a portion of wealth passed on to heirs
from deceased relatives.
And there was a consistent use of tariffs and taxes on certain goods like tobacco, liquor,
sugar, legal documents and whiskey (check out the info on the 1794 whiskey rebellion
to learn more).
Ok, so I bet you're thinking, "That's all well and good Danielle, but that was also
a pretty long time ago.
When did the federal government start taking home a huge chunk of change out of peoples'
paychecks?"
Well, the terrible thing about war (outside of death and devastation) is that it's expensive...and
it's pretty much always been expensive.
The first federal income tax in the U.S. was implemented by President Abraham Lincoln on
August 5th, 1861, in large part to help pay for the Civil War.
But this new tax didn't impact everyone immediately.
Instead, Lincoln and the Congress passed the Revenues Act which took a 3% tax on anyone
with an annual income of over $800.
And this law defined "income" relatively broadly to include income "derived from
any kind of property, or any professional trade, employment, or vocation carried on
in the United States or elsewhere or from any source whatever."
And while you gotta love a legal definition that ends in "whatever" like a teen from
Clueless, the law was eventually repealed in 1872.
There were a couple of subsequent attempts to get an income tax on the books but they
were generally unsuccessful and unsustainable
But we still weren't done with federal taxation.
In 1909, the federal income tax reared its head one more time in the form of the 16th
amendment which was later ratified in 1913.
And this marked a huge shift in the way the government was able to rake in the dough.
Prior to this, there was a sentiment that the government should not be aware of citizens'
private financial affairs, so a clause was added in 1916 to make sure that this information
on tax filings was kept confidential.
Also unlike today, most people weren't even paying taxes.
Less than 1% of Americans ended up having to fork over any money in those early income
tax days because of generous exemptions and the fact that it was only intended to tax
people making over $3,000 a year.
And the graduated rates started at 1% of income and were as high as 7% for those with an annual
income over $500,000.
But comparatively speaking that's still pretty low.
But war, what is it good for?
Definitely taxes (and sing it again y'all).
Because during World War I the federal government was in need of funds after declaring war on Germany.
Starting in 1917, congress passed a series of war revenue acts that did away with a lot
of prior exemptions and raised the tax rates.
This meant that about 5% of Americans had to start paying taxes.
And FDR's New Deal and the onset of WWII also saw the increase in federal income tax collection.
And although it's gone up and down, run at a surplus and a deficit, and remained a
point of contention among those who have to pay them, federal income taxes have in fact
remained as inescapable as death throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.
But that brings us to our third question and the hypothetical portion of the episode: What
would happen if there were never any federal income taxes?
Let's start with the Civil War: The Federal Government is denied the ability to create
direct taxes.
So if Lincoln and Congress' plan to establish a federal income tax had been denied, this
would have set an important historical precedent, essentially denying the federal government
the right to extract direct taxes from its citizens.
As a result, regardless of the outcome of the Civil War, the idea of state's rights
would have become more important.
If the South had won, then there's a precedent for states having the right to self-autonomy
whenever they decide.
And if the North still won, there's a precedent that the federal government doesn't have
the right to collect income taxes in any situation, even when the U.S. was on the verge of implosion.
As a result the states would become more independent and the federal government would be weakened.
But to figure out the larger historical impact we have to figure out what most of your federal
income tax dollars are even paying for.
And the largest percentage of your tax dollars go towards military spending and defense.
And the debate about if the federal government even had the right to collect taxes was always
hottest when there were times of war and increased military activity.
Which brings us to our second big impact: Decreased Military Activity in the first half
of the 20th century.
In our alternate timeline, denying Lincoln the right to create a federal income tax sets
a legal precedent.
So there's no grounds for the 16th amendment, which means that the federal income tax isn't
a constant factor in the running of the government.
At crucial points in U.S. history the federal income tax was used to fund war efforts.
The first major war effort of the 20th century that capitalized on this tax was World War I.
So without the federal government's ability to raise funds quickly, this means there's
a continued isolationist approach leading to no U.S. military involvement in WWI.
Heck there may not have even been a WW2 without the completion of the first one.
So a result the U.S. never gets a taste for international military intervention at other
junctures in the 20th century, because they simply couldn't afford to on a unified national level.
Lastly without Federal Taxes the United States is a lot less...Unified.
Because federal income taxes are collected by the central government and redistributed
amongst the 50 states, there is a certain amount of collective and political logic that
goes into who gets what.
For example, in 2014 South Carolina got $7.87 for every $1 dollar its citizens paid in federal taxes.
But without the federal taxation, each state's economy would be much more independent.
And that's because state wealth varies wildly, with Mississippi, Arkansas, West Virginia,
Alabama, and Kentucky ranking on the tail end of poorest states in 2015, while Maryland,
Hawaii, Alaska, New Jersey, and Connecticut were on the high end based on median household
income.
So over the course of the 20th & 21st century federal income taxes that went towards paying
on the national debt would likely be eliminated in favor of taking on just state debts, and
the other categories like education and social programs would also vary based on the wealth
of the relative states.
So how does it all add up?
Well the federal income tax is strangely symmetrical: it was enacted at different points in U.S.
history to pay for war efforts and even today the biggest percentage of the money you pay
to the IRS goes towards military and defense.
But without this boost of money at various points in the historical timeline, the federal
government would likely be much weaker and we'd have more independent states.
But what do you think?
If federal income taxes hadn't been made into the permanent law of the land with 16th
amendment, how would that impact the timeline for the U.S.?
Would we have states ruling or would the federal government have survived?
Drop those comments below and we'll catch you next week.
Hey guys!
Thank you for all of your incredible comments and questions on last week's episode on
"Origins of Race," here's what some of you had to say.
So Michael Théodore-Robinson on Facebook asked a question about indenture, since he
believed that before 1662, all black laborers were indentured similar to their European
counterparts.
He also mentions the case of Anthony Johnson, an Angolan man, who is indentured and later
went on to become a landowner and to sue in court in order to enslave another black indentured
servant.
So this question is great because it opens up a lot of complexities in parts of the story
related to early American history.
Yes, there were black indentured servants in the early years of the colony of Virginia,
but not every black laborer was indentured, as many who were brought into the colonies
were actually enslaved.
As time went on and we pass the midpoint of the 17th century, the laws around chattel
slavery in the early colonies were solidified around black laborers in order to guarantee
perpetual slavery and to increase the personal profits of early capitalists.
So thanks for writing, Michael!
So Rebecca Hodges and Artieboy Ramirez, also on Facebook, both asked questions about resources
that focused on cultures outside of the U.S. and also why this episode was limited to the
U.S. only.
So for more reading drop down into the works cited, and there are a few things of interest
that cover a broader spectrum outside of U.S. context.
And I limited the episode in scope only because the histories of race around the world do
share things in common but also have divergent histories and specific context.
I wanted to give you a short episode that accurately trace just one of these genealogies
rather than conflating many global histories into one short timeline.
So thanks to you both for writing!
And this last shout out goes to Social Studies teacher, Danielle Ketterson, thanks for watching
and for commenting and say "hi" to all of your great students for me!
So that's it for now and we'll see you next week!

Body language tip on storytelling - Duration: 1:06.
Hello, I'm here in Edinburgh. It's the break of my performance and I am in the backstage room.
And the first thing, we were talking about here in Edinburgh was:
If you are telling a story don't show off! And I gave them a metaphor, a picture. And that is:
Imagine you would be in a pub with friends and you would tell a story, a content or an experience to them. How would you act?
If you are doing it too pathetically - too much showing off, your friends would think "What's wrong with you?". So loosen up a bit.
Tell it as if you would have drunken one beer.

ROSATI POUCZA POLAKÓW W SPRAWIE IMIENIA JEJ CÓRKI! "TO JEST ELIZABETH, A NIE..." || SzokGWIAZDY - Duration: 4:35.
ROSATI POUCZA POLAKÓW W SPRAWIE IMIENIA JEJ CÓRKI! "TO JEST ELIZABETH, A NIE..."
Weronika Rosati (34 l.) udzieliła wywiadu w programie śniadaniowym TVP.
Nie zabrakło pytań o macierzyństwo. Trzy miesiące temu na świat przyszło pierwsze dziecko Weroniki i ortopedy.
Aktorka zdecydowała się rodzić w Stanach.
Tabloidy donosiły, że chodzi o to, aby malutka dostała od razu amerykańskie obywatelstwo.
Okazuje się, że nie był to główny powód. Ostatnie trzy miesiące spędziłam w Stanach Zjednoczonych.
Było to uzależnione od mojego porodu i mojej córeczki, którą tam urodziłam ze względu na to, że chciałam mieć święty spokój w tym wyjątkowym momencie.
Mogłam się nacieszyć dzieckiem, a nie stresować się, co zapewne by mnie spotkało, gdybym urodziła tutaj - wyznała Weronika w Pytaniu na śniadanie EXTRA.
Następnie oznajmiła, że macierzyństwo bardzo ją zmieniło, co zauważają wszyscy jej znajomi.
Później było jeszcze lepiej.
Weronika poinformowała, że przez ciążę straciła wiele intratnych propozycji, ale była to jej świadoma decyzja.
Amerykańscy producenci chyba się zmówili, bo w tych kilku miesiącach ciąży wręcz zasypali ją ofertami pracy!.
Bardzo dużo propozycji odrzuciłam. Tak jak na złość, jak tylko dowiedziałam się, że jestem w ciąży,.
to dostałam główną rolę w amerykańskim serialu, potem jeszcze rolę w filmie, który był kręcony w listopadzie na Dominikanie. Było mi trochę żal.
Odrzuciłam też kilka polskich propozycji, jedną międzynarodową produkcję z topowym aktorem - wylicza Weronika.
Na koniec wyjawiła, że nazwała córkę na cześć aktorki Elizabeth Taylor.
Dlatego kategorycznie zabroniła spolszczania tego imienia i pisania go w zły sposób z s zamiast z!.
Moją córkę nazwałam na cześć Elizabeth Taylor.
(.) To nie jest Elżbieta, to nie jest Elisabeth - zaznaczyła Rosati.
Teraz już wiecie i proszę nie robić więcej błędów!.
