Waching daily Jan 2 2017

[Upbeat music]

I guess what I would like to show

Is um, for most of my life I've been a

My favorite part of ACI was to get to know

other people who are autistic as well.

Personally I think like being there, being

here and actually experiencing and seeing

other autistic people is just really

awesome.

I've never been in a place where

I've connected with people so quickly and

just been understood and that has been a

really really incredible experience.

Learning how to just be in the adult

world, also learning how to have some

sort of agency.

You have a community of autistic people

and like disabled people and

neurodivergent people and everything

I really liked being in a huge group of

autistic people instead of just you know

being the only one in my group.

I'm here to find myself and also to

have better leadership skills how to

advocate more effectively being a

little bit more self assured, a little

more confident.

after this week I feel a lot more

confident of myself as an autistic person.

And I feel like I am in the right place.

We learned about how to organize

the goals that we have so that we can

actually get things accomplished.

Because a lot of the things that I wanted

to accomplish it felt too big for me so

now they feel a lot more manageable.

And we also learned how to leverage

social media in a meaningful way.

With here, with ACI what I learned is it

is really important for me to become a

better leader and to be able to educate

others.

I like learning how to like

navigate politics and just sort of

being a part of that process.

To be honest you know the School House

Rock I really had no idea how it works

you know how you get a bill to actually be

passed by you know by actual methods and

so of like a way to bring advocacy into

learning how to be in the adult world

We, you're active, you move as a group.

And in the room, and you can commit and

like accomplish great things that can

help pass along information about

some biz, biz that we don't want and

some biz that we do want that

will help everyone.

knowing that it's important to

continually instill that history, to

continually learn about that history and

also continue making that history.

Like spreading awareness and what's

important.

To also spread acceptance.

We learned about the history of the

disability rights movement and the

history of the neurodiversity movement

and I also liked the discussions about

autistic culture because I think that's

something that isn't discussed enough and

that I would really like to build on.

Before I came to ACI I thought that to be

a leader you had to have a certain kind

of personality and that was one that I

didn't have.

I didn't think that I, as

someone with a disability, could change

anything, and now that I've been around

all these other people that share my views

and I've learned how to effectively

communicate what I feel about these issues

there isn't any use in being sad.

Had some sessions on things like policy

making and planning, some networking,

things like that.

I really liked when we had dinner with

professionals and getting to meet

notable people.

I went to speak to the

staff people of Senator Barbra Boxer

and senator Diane Feinstien.

We talked to the congressional

representatives, to disabled professionals

and knowing what their experiences were

like.

We're pretty fortunate we went

out for dinner last night and you know,

we didn't care what people thought and

we were pretty loud but we were talking

about our special interests so much.

My favorite part of ACI was whenever I got

an opportunity to talk in smaller groups

because I felt like I was able to get to

know each other better that way.

I really

liked the community and how everyone

was openly being themselves.

The most interesting session for me was

definitely the one about student

communities and groups.

I'm planning on going back to my home town

and start an ASAN chapter.

I'm going to definitely be more active be

a leader in my my community.

You know

be the change that I want to see.

to change the attitudes toward autism

so that hopefully it can improve the

ethics and improve the research quality

and I think that's just really helpful.

We have an organization that exists on

campus but I often deal with tokenism

because I'm the only person of color

in that organization.

I want people to not

feel invalidated, Like if they're autistic

or not autistic enough.

It's really

important to be open about your identity

I'm going to take what I've learned about

social activism and disability rights back

to my campus.

Eventually I would like to go back to my

campus and start a cross disability

coalition.

absolutely I would recommend ACI to

other autistic college students

I definitely would.

Oh yeah yes totally.

Yeah definitely.

I've learned a lot, there's like a whole

breadth of things so far I think is just

really helpful.

Recessed Lighting - Do You Have Room to Install Recessed Lights? - Duration: 1:27.

Recessed Lights: I want to install recessed lights in my home, but don't know if I have

enough space.

What should I use?

Welcome to burning questions.

I'm Mark and that is your burning question for today.

[ music playing ]

Recessed lighting has come a long way especially in the last couple years with the evolution

of the LED light fixtures.

We find in most cases that your traditional recessed lights will work in most spaces.

But if you don't have a clearance for your average recess can lights, what we would recommend

is a light fixture that we just recently used in a basement project.

We had less than a 5 inch clearance.

So we used a 2 inch aperture LED light by Juno.

So let's take a look and see what we have.

[grabbing light part ] We have a 2-inch apeture with a flexible driver

which makes the installation like a dream.

it's a lot easier to get into a much tighter space.

And I think you will be very pleasantly surprised on how much light and warmth from the light

that this little 2 inch fixture will give off in your living space.

So please send in more of your Burning Questions and I will put them out.

Ariana Grande is a Final Fantasy Character Now? | Give It Thought - Duration: 3:07.

Welcome back to Give It Thought.

As always, I'm Jake and let's get right into this story.

That's what you came here for, right?

It looks like Nickelodeon star turned pop star, Arianna Grande, will be making an appearance

in the mobile game, Final Fantasy Brave Exvius.

Her Character will be featured in the game wearing that same bunny suit she wore on her

newest album… oh, wait that's Frank from Donnie Darko.

My mistake, THIS bunny suit.

I really got to hire a new editor.

Like I said, this is the same bunny suit she wore for her latest album, Dangerous Woman.

Arianna Grande announced her appearance in the game on Instagram and showed off a picture

of her meeting with Square Enix executives where they likely went over the character's

design and how she could promote the game because, let's be real, this is a promotional

stunt.

I don't know, this guy right here looks like a HUGE Ariana Grande fan, so this could

be a dream of his.

Don't judge.

But there's no word on when her character will make an appearance in the game or how

players will be able to recruit the latex-bunny-suit clad character into their party.

We also got a sneak-peek of her character's sprite in action via Arianna Grande's Instagram

where it shows her character will be musically oriented.

As you can see, two sprites, both on the far middle left and upper right are using musical

attacks it seems like.

As far as I can tell her character will be named DW in-game and won't use her actual

name.

This is not the first time Square Enix has brought in a pop star to help get their flagship

franchise some recognition.

For Final Fantasy XIII, Square Enix brought in British Pop-star Leona Lewis to sing the

game's theme song for the western release.

She also did some promotion for the game that got her and Square Enix in some hot water.

Apparently Lewis claimed she was playing the game when all that was running on the TV in

front of her was an ad for the game.

So, uh, yeah.

She never even played what she was promoting.

Lewis, however, did not appear in any of the games, just the advertising and the soundtrack.

In case you didn't know, Final Fantasy Brave Exvius is a free to play mobile game, for

iOS and Android, that's pretty popular.

The RPG features anew cast of characters, which includes the incoming Ariana Grande

bunny character, as well as old Final Fantasy elements like limit breaks, summons, and your

usual spell nomenclature.

The game was originally released in Japan in 2015 and finally made its way westward

in 2016.

The developer, Gumi, announced in September the game had been downloaded 8 million times

around the globe.

So, I just wanted to let everyone know about this incoming promotional character for the

mobile Final Fantasy game, subtitled Brave Exvius.

I know some people will have some choice words to say about this, so what do you think about

Square putting a pop-star into one of their games?

Do you think this kind of thing will spread to the actual, main-series Final Fantasy games?

Or do you like Ariana Grande and are welcoming her cute, little bunny character into your

game?

Be sure to tell me your opinion down below.

And I think that's where I'm going to wrap this one up.

Thank you so much for watching and remember: give thought to everything.
