Mitch McConnell Trump Has Given Us The Best Year for Conservativ - Duration: 4:42.

Mitch McConnell Trump Has Given Us The Best Year for Conservatives in The 30 Years I�ve

Been Here

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell stated on Monday that President Donald Trump has

given conservatives their �best year� in the over 30 years he has served in Congress.

McConnell � who was first elected to the Senate in 1984, during the height of Ronald

Reagan�s tenure as commander in chief � told Fox News� Dana Perino people who are right

of center should be very encouraged by the results they are seeing in Washington D.C.

�2017 was the best year for conservatives in the 30 years that I�ve been here.

The best year.

On all fronts,� he said.

�And a lot of people are shocked because we didn�t know what we were getting with

Donald Trump,� the majority leader added.

�He was doing fundraisers for Chuck Schumer three or four years ago.

But this has turned out to be a very solid, conservative, right of center, pro-business

administration.

And we�re seeing the results of it,� said McConnell.

In an op-ed for Louisville�s Courier-Journal published on Monday, the Kentucky senator

listed some of 2017 accomplishments.

�In a once-in-a-generation effort, the Republican-led Congress passed comprehensive tax reform legislation

last year helping middle-class families, small businesses and workers keep more of their

hard-earned money,� McConnell wrote.

�In other words, we took money out of Washington�s pocket and put it back in the pockets of the

middle-class families who earned it.�

He went on to note the businesses turned around and shared the benefits of their lowered corporate

income tax with their employees in the form of bonuses, higher wages, and increased benefits.

According to a list compiled by Americans for Tax Reform, at least 3 million Americans

are already receiving special bonuses as a result of the �Tax Cuts and Jobs Act�

(2017) passed last month.

McConnell pointed out that �the historic tax law also repealed Obamacare�s unpopular

individual mandate tax, which disproportionally impacted low- and middle-income families by

forcing them to purchase health insurance plans they often didn�t want or couldn�t

afford.�

Other accomplishments highlighted by the senator included the confirmation of judges to the

federal bench, with a record 12 circuit judges in 2017, and the rollback of Obama-ear regulations

both through presidential and congressional action.

The Wall Street Journal and The New York Times credited the massive cut in red tape under

Trump in creating the current pro-growth business climate.

According to the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the Federal Register of rules and regulations

is at its lowest page count in a quarter-century.

The calendar year concluded with the register numbering 61,950 pages, down 35 percent from

the all-time record set during President Barack Obama�s final year of 95,894 pages.

The last time the register was at its current level was 1993.

As reported by The Western Journal, radio talk show host Mark Levin praised President

Donald Trump on his program last month, calling him �the most conservative president since

Ronald Reagan.�

Levin, who served in multiple positions in the Gipper�s administration, said, �If

you�re a Reagan conservative or a constitutional conservative � you have to be very, very

pleased right now.�

The conservative commentator pointed to Trump�s economic and national security policies, as

well as his appointment of constitutional conservative judges.

�(Trump�s) first year has been highly successful, particularly when you consider

the forces arrayed against him,� said Levin.

10 Productivity Hacks for Travel | How to Travel & Stay Productive - Duration: 9:18.

What's up everybody?

And welcome back to Vagabrothers.

I'm Alex. I'm Marko.

In this video we're going to be sharing with you guys and girls some of the tips and tricks that we use

to stay productive while on the road,

which as you may know is pretty often.

A lot of people ask us how we do what we do:

making well researched, high production quality videos on a regular basis.

Truth is that we depend upon a team that stretches all the way around the world- from LA to Toronto,

New York to Moscow, not to mention wherever we happen to find ourselves.

So in this video we'll be sharing with you some tips and tricks that we use

to stay productive on the road, keep our team on the same page, and still have time to enjoy the trip.

We've collaborated with Chromebooks to bring you this video

and show you how we use their laptops to stay on top of our game,

no matter what time zone we wake up in.

You're watching Vagabrothers,

and this is how to stay productive on the road.

Travel is fun.

But when you have to get work done,

it can be really disruptive.

You're in an unfamiliar place;

your body doesn't know what time it is,

but your deadlines back home remain the same.

For our team with so little face time and everyone working in different time zones,

we rely on collaborative cloud-based systems like Slack,

Evernote, or our favorite, Google Docs.

The Chromebooks are seamlessly integrated with the entire Google suite,

which allows us to share publication dates with Google Calendar,

budgets on Google Spreadsheet, and script ideas on Google Docs,

not to mention lets us keep our frequent flyer numbers at the tip of our fingers during check-in.

Everything is synced through the cloud,

which means our team back in California

can be making updates on a script that we can access on location in real time.

Whatever your preference,

there are plenty of apps to download in the Google Play Store,

and Chromebooks is specifically designed to work with the cloud,

which means all of your work is already automatically backed up.

So if the airline loses your checked bag, and you put your computer in your checked bag,

you're not totally screwed, but come on.

You know not to put your computer in your check luggage, right?

I mean, right?

Which brings me to my next point that the Chromebook is perfect for carry-on luggage

because it weighs just over two pounds,

and it's a half an inch thick.

It slides very easily into your carry-on luggage.

So you never even have to worry about potentially losing it in your checked luggage

because it goes right into your carry-on luggage.

See what I'm getting at here?

Tip number 2: Globalize your calendar.

When you've got deadlines that span multiple time zones,

you've got to keep everything synced up using a shared online calendar.

We actually start our scheduling using an old-school handwritten planner.

Every Sunday we spent about an hour sketching out the week to come,

and then we transfer the important dates over to a shared Google Calendar

that's visible to everybody on our team.

But digital calendars are really great for business travel

because they help you avoid confusion with time zones.

If you have a meeting next week in Berlin at 4 p.m.,

you can actually put the location of the meeting, which will automatically change it to the time zone

in the location of your meeting.

This feature is crucial.

It's saved our but numerous times,

and we highly recommend that you use it.

It actually pulls your airline reservations from Gmail and your hotel address

straight to Google Maps and then sends it to your phone,

so you don't find yourself lost late at night looking for your hotel.

This deep compatibility with the Google suite is one of the reasons the Chromebook

is such a great tool to take with you on the road.

I love sketching out ideas by hand,

and one of the cool things about the Chromebook is that comes with a stylus,

which allows me to harness my handwritten creativity without sacrificing collaboration.

Tip number 3 is basic, but vital:

keep your batteries charged.

I'm not just talking about the batteries for your phone or your computer or your camera.

I'm talking about your batteries, too

Yes, you, are your batteries charged?

Keeping your batteries charged is easier said than done.

But here are a couple tips that are pretty basic.

Number 1:

Take it relatively easy the week before your trip.

Number 2:

Get a good night's sleep the night before your trip.

And number 3:

Make sure that all of your batteries for all of your devices and yourself are

properly charged before you set foot out the door.

A single charge on the Chromebook lasts 10 hours.

That's enough to get you through a full day of work,

a flight from London to Rio,

or let's be real, binging an entire season of Netflix.

Black Bear anyone?

The Chromebooks start up super fast.

So the second you hit cruising altitude,

you can power it on, flip over the screen, and turn your tray table into a movie theater.

Ok, what do you want? Peanuts or pretzels?

Do you have any popcorn?

For all the talk of staying connected,

remember that a lot of your creativity happens when you're offline,

especially when you're traveling.

Sometimes your best ideas come when you're miles away from cell service and then........

inspiration strikes.

That's why it's super important to use the offline time to your advantage.

Let the creative juices flow.

Be productive even when you're offline.

My favorite place to be creative is on the airplane.

I never buy online Wi-Fi because

I know the airplane is the one place

that I'm going to be completely free of distractions.....

at least most of the time.

With nowhere else to be, nothing else to do, I can focus on my tasks,

on my creativity flow, or just catch up with emails that piled up while I'm overseas.

Whether it's writing a script, researching new destinations,

or catching up on creative writing,

Google Docs works offline.

So the second I touch down,

It syncs across all my devices

and with the rest of my team.

Most of us love travel because it's an escape from the routine.

But in all honesty,

keeping a bit of regularity in your schedule

will really help you stay on top of things while you're abroad.

It can be as simple as finding a good coffee shop to go to each morning when you're in a new city.

It helps you reset, ground yourself with some ground coffee beans, and

even feel a little bit like a local.

Beyond that trying to maintain a fitness or a self-care routine

will help you keep your balance while you're away.

It can be as simple as rolling out of bed, doing some push-ups,

some sit-ups, a little bit of yoga

or meditation before you start your day.

Regardless of how well you prepare,

there's still one thing that can throw you off your game:

Jet lag.

Everyone deals with jet lag differently,

but personally I take a bit of a Taoist approach-

working with jet lag, rather than fighting against it-

that is if you fly west, you're going to wake up early.

Harness those extra hours for some uninterrupted creative time-

a meditation session or going running across your new city.

It's a great way to get your bearings,

and watching the sun rise will help your body clock adjust.

And if you're traveling east, you're going to have trouble going to sleep.

Use that time to catch up with friends back home,

edit the day's photos for Instagram, or curl up with a good book until you fall asleep,

otherwise baths really help.

Call the front desk, see if they have some bubble bath, like some bath salts,

and then go onto YouTube and listen to some Mongolian throat singing.

Trust me.

The last, but certainly not least:

make sure to steal away and have some time for a

legitimate real cultural experience.

It can be as simple as stepping out of the conference room for a quick tour of the city,

grabbing dinner with an old friend or

checking out that bar that you saw on a Vagabrothers' vlog and really just want to go try.

And if you can swing it, delay your trip by 48 hours,

and make a little mini vacation at the end of that business trip.

If you don't feel like pushing your luck,

just bring home a souvenir for your boss,

and thank him for the opportunity to get out of the office.

Who knows? That little fridge magnet might just send you to Thailand.

Okay, those are our tips on how to stay productive on the road.

Putin Apologizes to Russian Olympic Athletes: Sorry For Not Being Able To Protect You - Duration: 5:05.

Good afternoon, my friends.

I am happy to see you.

We all know very well the price of victory in modern high performance sports and how much hard work it takes – and you know it better than anyone does.

But it becomes twice as difficult when sports get mixed with extraneous events, phenomena, circumstances, politics or other things that have nothing to do with it.

And it becomes three times harder when the public in a country – our country in this case – has very mixed and complex attitudes, sometimes completely opposite opinions on the matter.

This creates a very tough environment for achieving results.

Please forgive us for not being able to protect you from this.

You and all sports fans must have no doubt that Russia has always supported and will support clean sports in every sense −

clean from doping and clean from superficial circumstances unrelated to sports.

Of course, we feel very sorry for those of our athletes who will not be able to compete in the Olympic Games this year and will do everything to support them.

At the same time, while admitting our own failures, mistakes, lack of attention to the things relevant and important in modern sports,

we really hope that our colleagues in international sport organisations will do everything to make sure these organisations do not become departments of certain countries' government bodies,

no matter how powerful and influential these countries seem at first glance.

We really hope for this kind of attitude towards this matter, towards sports, and rely on their courage.

We realise that modern sport is linked with sponsorship, advertising and everything else that accompanies major international competitions.

But if modern international sports and the Olympic movement lose the main element of sport, which unites peoples and countries, all of it will become pointless.

In this case the appeal of the founder of the modern Olympic movement, Pierre de Coubertin "O Sport, You are Peace!" will lose its meaning.

We will do everything to prevent this from happening.

We will work with international organisations and support, as I said, our athletes who did not make it to the Olympics.

Some things really seem strange to us in this context.

As you know, many of them were allegedly banned from the Games for the totality of circumstances not related to doping.

What are we fighting against then? Doping or something else? We would like to know what it is.

We hope to have a substantive conversation with our colleagues from international organisations to sort it out.

Naturally, I wish you good luck.

I would also like to wish you not to think about anything that is not part of your preparations for the Olympics, not to worry about anything I just spoke about.

I wish that you only concentrate on your sport competition, knowing that as usual you are watched by hundreds of thousands, by millions of fans that love you and hope for your victory.

I sincerely wish you victory and good luck. All the best to you.

Thank you.

10 CRIMES People Would Most Likely Commit For MONEY - Duration: 8:02.

Every now and then, everyone is tempted to run afoul of the law.

Whether it's running that red light, or taking that small item without paying, most

Americans have, at least, contemplated breaking the law.

What stops us?

For most, it's the fear of getting caught.

But imagine if that was somehow lessened by a reward.

What if you were paid for the criminal act?

It turns out, you can put a price on morals.

Here are 10 crimes that, deep down, we'd totally commit for cash (according to studies)…

10.

Stealing Candy

In honor of Halloween, the overseers of one study asked participants how much money it

would take to convince them to steal candy.

The answer: not a whole lot.

Participants stated that for just $50, they'd agree to steal the candy from a young child

trick or treating, or from the local store.

The survey found that 84.7% of men would steal candy while only 75% of women would.

Overall, women were less likely to commit crimes for cash than men.

The generation of the participant also had a notable effect on their likelihood to commit

said crime.

Nearly 85% of Millennials said they'd steal candy for money, while only 73% of Generation

X and 60% of Baby Boomers admitted they'd do the same.

9.

Running a Red Light

While running a red light may seem innocuous, a dangerous intersection could lead to fatal

results.

That's why it was surprising how willing participants were to commit such a crime.

More than 88% of men and 77% of women admitted they'd run a red light for a financial benefit.

In this case, men needed more money than women to commit the deed, asking for $300 while

women only needed $200.

Similar to our last case, Baby Boomers were hardest to convince, with only 67% agreeing

to run a red light.

That percentage increased to 79% for Generation X, and a whopping 87% of Millennials.

8.

Peeing in Public

Everyone's had to deal with it.

Shoes sticking to the floor of the train, that smell in parking lots.

It's a crime that many have committed, yet will never admit.

It turns out that with a little monetary incentive, people would do more than admit to the crime…

they'd carry it out.

Overall, 81% of surveyed participants stated that they'd be willing to urinate in public.

Understandably, women were much less willing to carry out such a crime, and asked for a

much handsomer price.

The going price for a woman to pee in public was $1,000, compared to just $200 for men.

Also, while 88% of men said they'd pee in public, only 74% of women would share their

convictions.

Surprisingly, the Baby Boomer generation was more likely to pee in public than steal candy.

We guess for Baby Boomers, a little urine never hurt anybody?

7.

Vandalizing Property with Graffiti

While some may view graffiti as art, it's a misdemeanor and can be punished by one year

in prison.

The participants in this study needed a $1,000 reward to engage in vandalism, with 76.8%

of participants agreeing to carry out the misdemeanor.

Again, men were more likely to commit the crime than women, by a margin of 82% of men

to 70% of women.

The men and women who conducted the study did not further delineate their results by

generation, but it's hard to believe Baby Boomers would know what to do with a spray

can in their hands as well as Millennials.

6.

Punching Someone (Assault)

As the list continues, the crimes get a little darker, and more violent.

Assault is a serious crime, which, depending on the injury, could result in as much as

15 years in prison.

A simple punch wouldn't do much damage, though, right?

That must have been the thinking of the study participants, who agreed to assault someone

for $1,500 (median).

Slightly more than 71% of participants agreed to punch someone, with 77% of men agreeing

while only 65% of women said the same.

Women also asked for more money – $2,000 – while men asked for $500 less.

The States, by participants, more willing to smack someone in the nose?

Those are located primarily in the midwest, north, and central regions, in states like

North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri.

5.

Grand Theft Auto

No, not the video game.

Probably the ultimate thrill ride would be escaping in a stolen car, but its difficulty

and the likelihood of incarceration saw willing participants drop significantly.

Only 55% of those surveyed said they'd steal a car for cash, and the price tag wasn't

cheap.

A payment of $120,000 dollars (median) would be needed to compel them into action.

The women who agreed to steal a car, however, would demand a payment of a quarter of a million

dollars.

It seems that for people to be willing to steal a car, that'd have to be paid enough

to buy a house.

4.

Burglary

The results for willingness to burglarize a home might be surprising to some.

The percentages for robbing a home and stealing a car were nearly identical, with burglary

coming in a single percentage-point lower.

However, burglarizing a home only took a payment of $70,000 dollars for participants to agree.

Women, again, needed more to commit the crime, asking for double their male counterparts

asking price of $50,000.

Presumably because they're much more wary of potential Kevin McCallister encounters

upon breaking into a random home.

At least, that's what we're choosing to believe.

3.

Robbing a Store

The crimes continue to get a little more serious as we round out the list.

One doesn't have to look too far to understand the grave danger of attempted robbery.

From a store owner pulling a gun, to police arriving on the scene, robbing a store is

no joke.

That didn't stop 52% of participants from admitting they'd rob a store for a certain

amount of cash.

The amount demanded?

A cool $250,000.

That was certainly more than they'd find in any cash register.

In the biggest disparity yet, women asked for $500,000 while men only asked for $100,000

to commit such an offense.

Willing female participants continued to shrink, with only 44% agreeing to rob a store.

Luckily for us, the male participants drove the numbers higher, with 59% stating they'd

commit such a robbery.

2.

Robbing a Bank

While robbing a liquor or convenience store is certainly dangerous, carrying out a bank

robbery is by far the most perilous robbery one can commit (well, other than a casino,

as the Ocean's movies taught us).

And yet 57 % of men deemed themselves willing to rob a bank, if they were guaranteed some

upfront cash.

Two million dollars was the average amount for men, while women needed eight million

dollars to commit the same crime.

Women were also far less likely to rob a bank, with only 42% saying they'd take such a

risk.

Bonnie Parker is turning over in her grave.

1.

Murder

Taking another human life, without a justified cause, is probably the most depraved of criminal

acts.

Did that stop the surveyed participants from admitting a willingness to commit murder?

Absolutely not.

However, the price tag rose astronomically.

These men and women would not find work as hitmen.

The asking price for murder was $100,000,000 for men and $500,000,000 for women.

Those more likely to murder for cash reside, just as with assault, in states like North

Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, and Missouri.

If you want to live in a state with residents less likely to kill for money, move to the

mountain regions of the US; states like Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.

Either way, it's shocking and hard to believe that people would commit such acts with a

monetary incentive.

We must keep in mind that this is only hypothetical, and that when put to the test, many would

likely back away from the prior convictions.

At least let's hope, anyway.

Alexa Ray Joel Slams Instagram Troll for Calling Her "Hideous" - Duration: 2:26.

Alexa Ray Joel Slams Instagram Troll for Calling Her "Hideous"

  Alexa Ray Joel doesnt have time for Instagram trolls.  On Wednesday, Joels supermodel mom Christie Brinkley shared a picture of her 19-year-old daughter Sailor Lee Brinkley-Cook posing on a rock for Sports Illustrateds Rookie of the Year competition.

Clearly excited for her daughter, Brinkley wrote my mermaid and #proudmama in the caption. However, not everyone shared Brinkleys enthusiasm.

Instagram user @sams7007 left an unkind comment about Joel that has since been deleted. Joel caught the comment and called out the hater.  @sams7007 Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, Mr Big Shot.

You may think Im hideous, but I like the way I look. And thats really all the matters, she wrote.

(Besides, theres a lot more to people than just what they look like.) But hey, continue being a shallow, hateful troll in life and and see where it gets you!.

Several followers applauded Joel and came to her defense. Brinkley then thanked the Instagram users who supported her daughter.  I am also grateful for all the kind hearted people on this thread that jumped to Alexas defense.

Thank you all, she wrote at one point. While Brinkley didnt see the comment, she wrote, [You] have to feel sorry for people like that..

This isnt the first time Joel has faced public scrutiny. Last year, Joel told People she and her sister would get teased by the media as kids.

I was a painfully shy teenager, she told the magazine. Before I decided to be a performer, I was a little shell-shocked when paparazzi would be around.

When youre young, its easy to pick on you. There was a tabloid page that would draw things on my face.

When you come from privilege, they just see you as, 'Oh, she got it all handed to her. Shes also recently talked about the importance of being true to oneself on Instagram. I dont care what you look like.

I dont care how 'successful or 'liked you are. I dont care if youre considerably 'flawed. I dont care where you come from.

I dont care how much money you have or what your 'status is. Im not impressed by superficial fluff. You know whats impressive to me? Be real. (So long as youre being yourself.) part of her post read.

Joel, who is also the daughter of Billy Joel, has too many positive things happening in her life to let one troll bring her down. On New Years Day, she announced that shes engaged to Ryan Gleason.

Lagos CJ inaugurates four special courts for corruption cases - Duration: 3:35.

Lagos CJ inaugurates four special courts for corruption cases

The Chief Judge of Lagos State, Justice Opeyemi Oke, on Thursday, inaugurated four special courts to solely try corruption cases.

She said the move was in obedience to the directive given last year by the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen, for all heads of courts in the country to create special courts for the speedy trial of corruption cases.

Justice Oke noted that there were no fewer than 500 financial crimes currently pending before the Lagos State High Court, most of which had now been transferred to the special courts for expeditious hearing.

The CJ said the judiciary shared in the concern of President Muhammadu Buhari that most of the corruption cases filed under his administration had at best moved at snail's pace.

The courts, tagged, "Special Offences Courts" were inaugurated in Ikeja at a ceremony attended by the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Mr Ibrahim Magu.

The President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Zainab Bulkachukwa, CJN, was represented by the Presiding Justice of the Court of Appeal, Lagos Division, Justice M.I.

Garba; while the Governor of Lagos State, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, was represented by the Deputy Governor, Dr. Also in attendance was the Solicitor General of Lagos State, Mrs. Funmilola Odunlami, who represented the state's Attorney General, Mr Adeniji Kazeem.

Among other dignitaries who graced the occasion were the wife of the Vice-President, Mrs. Dolapo Osinbajo, and the Lagos First Lady, Mrs.

The Chief Justice, in her remarks, said, "We, in Lagos State and the Lagos State Judiciary, in particular, have taken the bull by the horns and implemented the Honourable CJN's directive by designating four courts as Special Offences Courts to hear corruption and financial crime cases.

"We believe strongly that the special courts shall fast-track the trial of these types of cases and encourage the EFCC and other relevant bodies like the ICPC to expedite the investigation and prosecution of such cases.

"Presently, there are over 500 cases of financial crime pending before the high court, the bulk of which have now been assigned to the Special Offences Courts.

She said it was cheering that Nigeria was joining the league of other countries, such as Indonesia and Malaysia, which had since thought it wise to take drastic steps against financial crimes by creating specialised courts.

Drone piloting for beginners: expectations vs reality - Duration: 5:08.

If you are like me, before buying the Mavic you watch almost all the available videos

on YouTube and realize how awesome videos it can make.

Then you buy it, fly it and after checking the video that you've just shot, you realize

that it's very far from awesome.

Today I show you what should you expect from the first couple of flights.

Let's roll…

Almost all of the possible mistakes that you will do during your first couple of flights

come down to one cause and it's called lack of experience.

It's like learning to drive a car.

I mean it's not complicated once you learned it, but at first you can hardly concentrate

on the road, all you can do is to think about the clutch, the gear, steering, gas, break,

signaling etc…

Just after you are familiar with these things you can fully focus on the road and on what's

happening around you.

This is exactly the same with a drone.

After all it's another type of vehicle.

This is why out of the box you start in beginner mode with numbed down controls.

If it's the first time when you pilot a drone you will experience things like loss

of orientation, jittery movement, harsh starts and stops and that's all right.

But it will reflect in the footage too…

Also it has countless settings buried well in the DJI GO 4 application not to mention

it's intelligent flight modes.

So be patient.

Because all you can think about is to keep it in the air you won't have the brain capacity

to check for the focus.

Funny thing that if you let go all the controls, it just stops and hovers there...

And especially when there's an object upclose the result video could have blurry parts in it.

After you quit from the beginner mode the sticks will feel very sensitive.

You can numb it down a little bit in the settings, but eventually you have to learn to treat

them like an Easter Egg.

So you have to be very gentle with them to get a smooth footage.

It's especially true for the camera tilting and for the yaw as well.

Later when you check the footage you could get some nausea.

Okay, okay, no more barrel rolls, I promise.

Because you've checked all the videos you learned that for the best result you should

shoot in D-log or in D-Cinelike.

As a result you got pretty washed out colors.

Even if you shoot in normal mode the footage won't be that great colorwise.

For getting the best results you have to learn some color correction and color grading too.

And even with post processing the colors may become fine, but the overall picture just

won't be the best yet.

I plan to cover these topics later, so stick around.

You also learned that if you want nice motion blur in your video, for shutter speed you

should set twice the framerate you used.

When you try to do it you realize that the image is overblown, almost totally white,

at least in sunny conditions.

This is because you need an ND filter to darken the image and be able to use the proper shutter

speed.

Not familiar with shutter speed, aperture and ND filters?

No problem, subscribe to the channel and we'll cover it soon.

I saved the biggest one for the end.

At least for me it was the biggest at first.

You know the feeling: when you bought a pretty expensive toy and afraid that you will ruin

or loose it somehow.

Every time when birds flew near it, I lost orientation, or I got a warning on high wind

velocity I also got a stomach cramp.

But after my first few flights I got more and more experienced and relaxed and now the

fear is pretty much passed.

Flying a drone especially for the first time is not easy.

You have to pay attention to too many things, so prepare yourself for it.

My recommendation is that for the first couple of times don't even record anything, just

try to fly around, learn the controls and the application.

When you feel a bit more confident, go on and take a shot, but don't be harsh on yourself

with the results.

If you practice, with every new flight you'll be better and better.

This footage you see was my very first one.

As you can see I just went up, looked around then came down, using only the left stick,

that's it.

Even if it's far from a decent footage for me it was magic.

And I recommend you to view drone piloting pretty much the same way.

But hey.

Not everyone is the same.

How was your first flight?

Or what do you expect from it if you haven't flown so far?

Let me know in the comments below.

Besides check out what I'm up to on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Thank you for watching, until next time…

Pennsylvania's State System of

Higher Education

14 universitie

Infinite Opportunities

Hi I'm Chancellor Karen Whitney,

and today we're going to talk

about the many ways students can

fund their college experience at

our 14 state universities.

I'm joined today by a wonderful

panel.

Let me introduce you to our

panelists.

Elizabeth McCloud is the vice

president of state grant and

special programs at the

Pennsylvania Higher Education

Assistance Agency also known as

PHEAA and she's also a proud

alumni of our IUP.

We're joined today by Angelo

Hronis, a senior sport

administration major at Lock

Haven University.

He's also the recipient of the

LHU SAS student success and

engagement scholarship.

Welcome Angelo.

Thank you for having me.

Absolutely.

And finally we joined by Deb

Suder, senior principal of the

government relations section at

Buchanan Ingersoll and Rooney

PC.

She's also an alum of LHU, and a

trustee of Lock Haven

University, and a donor.

Welcome Deb.

Thank you.

Great to be here.

So let's go ahead and just get

started.

Angelo, could you tell us a

little more about yourself?

Absolutely.

So, I'm a senior at Lock Haven

University.

I'm graduating in May of 2018

and I had the very fortunate

opportunity to start working for

the Cleveland Cavaliers in

January due to my success, and

what I got out of Lock Haven

University that really helped me

to get to where I am today.

Congratulations on graduating

and toward the employment;

that's terrific.

Yes.

Sure, you bet.

Hey Elizabeth, what role does

PHEAA play in helping students

fund their education?

We're going to spend a few

minutes here talking about the

different ways students fund

their college experience, so how

does PHEAA help out?

Well PHEAA works to facilitate

higher education that's

affordable for students and

families in Pennsylvania, and

PHEAA administers multiple

financial aid programs on behalf

of the Commonwealth.

The largest of those programs is

the Pennsylvania state grant

program, which is a program that

all of the PASSHE schools

participate in.

We also provide public service

initiatives across the

Commonwealth.

We have publications available

to assist students and families

and website resources, but

probably our most notable public

service initiative is the 14

higher education access partners

who live and work in communities

throughout the Commonwealth and

provide hands on assistance to

students and families in

learning about the financial aid

application process, and, you

know, planning for college and

completing that application

process.

So interestingly, PHEAA funds

those initiatives through our

financial resources; our

business earnings.

And so that saves our taxpayers

a great deal of money.

We also use some of our

financial resources at PHEAA to

provide additional funding to

some of the programs, including,

for this current academic year,

an 87 million dollar supplement

to the state grant program.

[WHITNEY] Wow!

And over the last 10 years we've

provided supplements to the aid

programs in excess of 670

million dollars.

Wow that's really terrific.

It's a tremendous help the

students in Pennsylvania.

So thank you.

Yeah.

Well let me ask Deb.

Deb can you talk to us about the

many ways that you're serving

Lock Haven University to be

successful?

Well, I've been lucky, since I've

graduated I've been on the

alumni board, the foundation

board, and now I'm really

enjoying being a trustee of the

college.

I worked with our political

science professors up there to

bring the students to --

actually to the Capitol for days

- see how a bill really passes -

so they can throw the book out

the window and learn the system;

which has been fun through the

years.

Each year the students advocates

come down to meet with the House

and Senate leaders and I attend

the meetings with them and I'm

also a donor and provide a

scholarship each semester.

Wow.

So you're an alum, you're a

trustee, an advocate, and a

donor.

Wow.

Well thank you for all that

you've done in all those roles.

I appreciate that very much.

I think the idea of giving one's

time, talent, and treasure is

very important, particularly in

helping students afford to

attend the university.

So in terms -- if I could ask

more about PHEAA, I mean what's

the number one question you're

asked by folks who are

interested what PHEAA offers?

Sure, I think families are always

looking to see what resources

are available.

And so primarily we start by

talking about the state grant

program and making sure that

students know how to go about

applying for financial aid, so

they don't miss out on any

financing opportunities

available to them, particularly

the gift aid programs, such as

the state grant program.

So I assume you have a website.

We do absolutely: PHEAA.org.

Oh that's easy to remember.

So that would be 'PHEAA.org,'

right. Correct.

Yes.

And there are multiple resources

available on PHEAA.org.

There is information about the

state grant program, as well as

each of the other special

programs that we administer for

the Commonwealth.

There are forms when families

need them to fill out.

There are some website tools to

assist them in planning for

college and the application

process and help them make

decisions about where they want

to apply and how they might be

able to finance an education.

Wow, that's very helpful.

That's very helpful.

I hope everybody listening will

go to PHEAA.org and really look

at what's what's been made

available by the state, because

I think everybody, no matter who

they are, should consider how

the state can be helpful to them

in going to college.

Let's take a quick break and

head on out to Indiana

University.

Your old school there, huh?

Ok, great.

As soon as I've stopped on the

grounds here I said, "Wow, this

college is beautiful!"

You know I went through the Oak

Grove and everything, and I

said, "You know, I could see

myself here."

I got my acceptance letter, it

said 'you got accepted to IUP'

and I said, "Oh my gosh, I think

I'm going to go here now!"

And I told my dad about it and

he was like, "But Mary, that's

four hours away."

So that type of variation within

a molecule, ninety nine point

eight percent of the DNA's

identical.

So what I've be telling is only

in point 2 percent it is

different.

I attended my first biology

course here at IUP and that's

when I met him, Dr. Bharathan.

He came down walking, in the big

auditorium in Wayandt, saying,

"My name is Bharanthan. It

rhymes with marathon.

Don't forget it."

So, he really hit home to me

when he said, you know, "You

have to work hard. You're gonna

to have to work hard. This

isn't high school. You're gonna

to have study; prepare ahead of

time."

And so I went back the next day

into his office and I said, "Dr.

Bharanthan, is there anything

you want me to do in your lab?

Anything?"

And you know what, he thought

about it for a while, and he

goes, "Yeah, there is

something."

So he brought me to his lab and

he says here wash the dishes.

And so I made my way up there.

He saw that I just kept coming

day after day, I wouldn't give up.

I'm very grateful for these

scholarship opportunities.

It had really allowed me to

focus more on academics.

My dreams for the future then is

to pursue a higher degree to get

my Ph.D. in cell molecular

biology, after which I plan to

work 5 to 10 years, or 10 to 15

years, in the industry primarily

focusing on cell and molecular

biology, looking at cellular

interactions involved with

people who have terminal

illnesses like my grandmother.

What I would say to those who

have given me this opportunity

-- this scholarship opportunity,

basically, would be, thank you.

Without them I wouldn't have

accomplished and succeeded in

what I have done today.

One day I hope to give back to

students like me at IUP.

Welcome back we're here talking

about how you can find your

college experience in our 14th

state universities.

Well Deborah, what inspired you

to give so much of your time,

talent, and treasure to Lock

Haven University?

Well, even though I went to

another institution to get my

master's, if it wasn't for Lock

Haven, I don't believe I'd be

where I am today.

I didn't have the internet, or I

couldn't google the internships,

or any of the other

opportunities that my professors

gave me while at Lock Haven, and

it was a one-on-one.

They found the internships for me.

They pushed me to work in DA's

office and even to work on a

legislator's campaign:

Representative Russ Letterman, a

former legislator up in the Lock

Haven area.

And so I am so thankful, and

it's my time to turn around and

help those behind me, and help

the students, and help the

institution, to keep it

affordable.

That's the one thing that really

is my passion - is making sure

it's affordability.

The cost of college, and the

debt that the student comes out

with now from our colleges and

universities, it is outrageous.

I don't know if you saw recently

the report this weekend?

Mhmm.

Unfortunately, Pennsylvania came

out as number one in student

debt.

Each student graduating in our

-- averages of thirty five

thousand dollars in debt when

they graduate.

That's upsetting to me, so my

mission is to see and find ways

to keep us affordable.

So because so much was given to

you you're giving back now.

Yes.

So thank you so much.

Well let me talk about

scholarships.

Angelo, you're a scholarship

recipient, can you talk about

how your scholarship helped you

be successful at Lock Haven?

Absolutely.

So this scholarship gave me all

the opportunity to have all my

books paid for, as well as any

kind of code that I needed for

class.

For example, at my finance

class, I had to do a business

game simulation that made real

life simulation with the real

world - put it back into class

and I had to get that code, and

that was all taken care of.

So it gave me the opportunity to

utilize all of my books for

class, because some classes I

had two to three books, and that

could get costly.

So, the fact that I have all

these books that I can continue

my education - learn to where I

am today.

I'm very thankful to have this

opportunity, to get the

scholarship, and then I'm able

to learn on an everyday basis,

not only in the classroom, but

as well with the books, as well,

just to reinforce what I learned

in class outside in the books.

So the scholarship helped reduce

the price that semester, or

while you had it.

How long did you have the

scholarship for?

I had the scholarship for a

year. Wow.

So it really brought down the

cost of what you had to pay that

year to go to Lock Haven?

Absolutely and I got it through

being involved in the S.A.S.

incorporated board as a

corporate board member and

that's where I received the

scholarship from.

I see.

Okay great.

Thank you.

Hey, Elizabeth what are other

ways students can fund their

education?

We've talked about donor-funded

scholarships, but can you talk

to us about other ideas or ways

you find that students are

funding their college

experience?

Absolutely.

So students, sometimes as they

go through the admissions

process with the school, they

might be offered a scholarship

directly from the school, or

they might have scholarships

coming in from private entities

outside of an institution.

But it's very important that

students go through the formal

government financial aid

application process to make sure

that they're not leaving any

resources unused that might be

helpful in covering college

costs.

It's known as the FAFSA.

The FAFSA.

That's correct.

And so that's an application

that even for seniors in high

school is available fairly early

on nowadays.

Students can start the financial

aid application process as early

as October 1st of their senior

year in high school, and they

will need to fill that out on an

annual basis as they move

through their college years.

And so with the FAFSA

application, students are

applying for federal types of

aid.

There is a link from the FAFSA

application to Pennsylvania's

state grant program application.

And so that's a secondary form

that students fill out with just

a couple of additional questions

and that then enables students

to be considered for the state

grant program which is then

need-based state funding.

So students want to start by

using all of the gift aid

resources that might be

available and applying for all

of those resources, and then

[cough] excuse me, once students

have used up all of the gift aid

options, or pursued all

available gift aid, then they

turn to what we call self-help

financial aid funds, and that

can include things like student

employment, perhaps a federal

student work-study job on campus

at one of the PASSHE schools.

That's something that I did when

I was at IUP.

I participated in a work-study

program.

So did I.

That's something many students

don't know.

Right.

And so and that's actually a

program that PHEAA provides

additional funding directly to

colleges to help them with the

funding that's required for

their share of the federal work

study-jobs for their students on

campus.

And then of course students

would also want to look at the

federal student loan program as

the final piece of that

financial aid puzzle.

So we've talked about today --

we've talked about ways to fund;

includes scholarships that are

funded by generous donors.

We've talked about PHEAA grants

that are funded by the state.

Those are items that you don't

pay back and we've talked about

working your way through through

work-study, and then there also

loans that you do have to pay

back.

Correct.

So not to mention there are

other grants besides, you know,

PHEAA.

There's other federal and state

grants as well, so there's

grants and scholarships, loans

and working your way through.

Right. So it's a puzzle of all those

pieces put together and most

students end up utilizing aid of

various types as part of that

puzzle.

There you go.

So we'll talk further about this.

Well let me let me ask you,

Angelo, I mean besides the

scholarship, did you work while

you were a student?

Absolutely.

I work in the student union

building, which is known as 'the

PUB.'

And I did a lot of operations,

but I worked there part time to

assist with my funding.

So you've worked, you have a

scholarship.

What are the other ways you know

that -- in some cases parents

will save money, in some cases

parents don't save at all; mine

didn't save, they weren't

savers, so I had to work my way

through.

Everybody has a different story.

What else have you done to make

it work out?

I was very thankful my parents

helped me out a lot throughout

my college career.

So I'm very grateful for that.

I applied with FAFSA and I got

some assistance with that as

well, so that helped, and

financial aid, and then also

working on campus and getting

involved, just to help offset

anything, and then, of course,

the scholarship that I was very

greatly appreciative for.

That's great.

That's terrific.

And I think it takes a little

bit of everything to help people

get through college these days.

Well I'll tell you what, we're

going to go ahead and take a

break now, and we're going to

learn some more about the State

System Foundation, and the way

that foundation helps students

with scholarships.

AT&T Aspire is really our

signature philanthropic

initiative.

AT&T started this in the year

2008.

We've been at this for about

nine years.

We've invested about 400 million

dollars across the country on

this and the signature

initiative is really around

education.

It's twofold.

It's making sure that students

are staying in school.

The second piece is just that

ensuring students are career

ready.

That we have a qualified

workforce that's ready and able

to step into positions at AT&T

and within our industry.

The State Systems Foundation's

fundraising efforts are

specifically focused on student

success.

So when we go out and talk to

prospective donors about

investing in our students or

being a partner with the State

System Foundation, we often will

present the option of investing

in our students because it is

important to our business

community here in Pennsylvania

as well.

AT&T has a number of career

needs in the STEM fields, so

AT&T hires approximately 25,000

new workers across the country

and in any given year.

About three quarters of workers

are in STEM-related fields.

Businesses can invest in

Pennsylvania students by

partnering with the State System

Foundation because we have 40

universities across the state

and we had the largest

population; over 100,000

students.

80 percent of the students that

graduate from the state system

stay in Pennsylvania and are

productive members of

Pennsylvania community.

So it's not only good business,

at least for us at AT&T and

other donors, but it's also an

investment in the economic

future of Pennsylvania and

that's critically important for

anybody that lives or works in Pennsylvania.

I feel that I am being benefited

right now through this

scholarship and I feel that

hopefully I am able to return

that in the future by helping

society as much as possible

through what I'm studying right

now.

We've provided 1,000 dollars

scholarships for STEM for the

last two or three years, and I

believe we're close to about a

100,000 dollars in scholarships

to students across the state.

We are able to provide students

with the opportunity to invest

their time and energy in

extracurricular activities in

bluechip practices, like

internships, lab experiences,

and even tutoring, and giving

back, which set them apart from

other candidates when they go

out for their first interview for a job.

I could be a student who is

working, you know, 20 or so

hours a week, or with funding

from sources like the AT&T

scholarship, I could spend that

time studying and trying to

further my own education and my

own future.

Whether it's a situation where

it's maybe a first generation

college student, whether it's a

situation where our 1,000 dollar

scholarship, or any of the other

donors to the state system

Foundation, has been able to

close that gap.

A student that otherwise would

not have had that opportunity to

go to college.

It's really heartwarming to hear

those stories and to recognize

that you've made a difference.

Working towards graduation three

semesters from now I feel that I

have been able to lay a very

strong foundation through the

resources that IUP and the State

System have given me.

I feel like that's a benefit I

definitely would not have

without the scholarship.

So I was a first generation

college student and paying for

college was difficult for me

also.

As an alum of Shippensburg

University, it is really

meaningful to me to be able to

bring together corporate

partners to help those students

like me, is truly -- it's why I

come to work every day.

It's why I come to work

everyday.

Welcome back.

We're here talking about the

different ways you can find your

college experience.

Hey Deborah, what are the

financial needs that you see of

our college students?

And it seems like they're

getting much greater than ever

before.

Well they are unfortunately.

When I started in Lock Haven in

1977 it was, for a whole year,

2,000 dollars, all in your room

board and all the fees.

Now it's an average of about

20,000 dollars.

2,000 versus 20,000 dollars.

The debt the children are coming

out -- the students are coming

out of college with it is

outrageous, as I had mentioned

earlier is very upsetting, and I

don't see it getting any better

unfortunately.

The pension costs, the health

care costs, and unfortunately,

that funding from our state has

drastically decreased.

And the way our budgets have

been running, and in

Pennsylvania, I don't see us

ever restoring the money that

the System gets.

So right now, I see that the

corporate America, the alumni

need to really assist and help

the students to keep their

college costs down.

Definitely over the decades the

cost -- the price has shifted

from the state to the student

for a lot of reasons.

So I hear that you're saying

that it's really important to

you to try to help lighten that

burden as much as possible back

to our students and I get a

sense that's one of the biggest

reasons you're donor.

Yes.

That's terrific.

Well I think it means a lot to

know that students have rich

scholarship because that means

you believe in them.

Thank you.

Well let me ask you to that

Angelo can you tell us about

your scholarship?

You've got a great scholarship.

What was the secret to your

success in getting such a

terrific scholarship?

I wanted to stay involved in

campus.

I played baseball on the Lock Haven

baseball team as a

sophomore.

And after that I wanted to focus

on my career.

And I thought well, what's a

better way to get involved on

campus, get involved in clubs,

the Student Union Building which

led to my job.

I started talking to Jodi Smith,

the director of student

activities, and I started asking

a lot of questions.

How can I get involved?

What can I do to help out around

campus?

Not knowing about the

scholarship at that point, but

just to get involved and after a

year proceeded, she really liked me.

I did a lot of good stuff at the

PUB and it led to me getting a

scholarship on the corporate

board member -- as a corporate

board member and that's where I

received the scholarship.

So getting involved -- what

really helped me a lot because,

not only did I get to meet

people, I got the opportunity

for the scholarship, and they

really helped me with my success

at Lock Haven.

Wow.

That's great.

It's terrific.

Well Elizabeth, what other

resources -- we've talked about

few earlier that you could

consider suggesting to students

to look at either resources that

are directly related to PHEAA or

other areas or resources that

you might suggest, you know if

your next door neighbor were

watching this and was trying to

figure out how to afford to go

to college what would you

suggest?

Right.

So I would start by suggesting

higher education access partners

I mentioned earlier, the 14

folks around the Commonwealth

who literally host thousands of

financial aid information

sessions and FAFSA completion

sessions every year.

And are those those events

listed on the PHEAA website.

I don't know that they're all

listed on the PHEAA website, but

usually they're primarily

advertised within the

communities where they're being held.

So keep an eye open.

Right. So that would be my first piece

of advice is to check through

local libraries, secondary

schools, post-secondary

institutions, see what is

available in the community in

the way of it in terms of those

events beyond the access

partner's work.

PHEAA does have other resources

available.

We have many free publications

which walk families through the

financial aid planning process,

college higher financing

planning, financial aid

application process, the types

of aid that are available.

We also have online planning

tools which help students plan

for their education and think

about how they go about

financing it.

You know our goal is to help

students have an affordable

higher education.

We're also focused on making

sure that students are borrowing

reasonable amounts through these

government student loans to fund

their education.

So our goal is to have students

come out on the other side of

college with an education that

was affordable, but also with a

manageable level of student

debt, so that they can live

independently as citizens after

the college years.

So really, loans are the last

thing we would suggest people

and they should look at,

like we've talked about earlier

scholarships and grants,

planning to work summers or

during their college in a way

that's reasonable to help bring

the cost down, so that loans

become the last thing. Right?.

And we have a particular tool

that I think is very helpful with

that, which is called

MySmartBorrowing.org.

My Smart Borrowing is a site

where students can play around

with some calculators that are

very helpful, and you can plug

in different majors, you can

plug in which school you're

planning to attend, and look at

estimates of what the employment

availability will be in that

field post-graduation or what a

potential starting salary would

be.

And so it helps students make

decisions as they're going into

the college years, and even

throughout those years, that

will impact the amount of debt

they come out with on the other

side and help them be prepared

to move on post college

independently.

So you could almost see what

your return on your investment

in yourself could be?

Oh that's pretty exciting.

Well at this point what's the

one piece of advice that you

would give high school students

looking to attend one of our

state universities?

I think the biggest piece of

advice I would give students is

not to assume that because

they're applying to a public

university that they won't be

eligible for financial aid

programs.

And so every student should be

planning to complete the FAFSA.

The deadline for PASSHE

institutions state grant

eligibility is a May 1st FAFSA

submission and so students

should be applying by May 1st

each year with the FAFSA

completing any other paperwork

PHEAA needs, you know making

sure that they're taking

advantage of any type of aid

that might be available to them.

So often we hear stories where

families have just assumed that

they wouldn't be eligible

because their cousin wasn't or

their neighbor wasn't you know

and they're leaving types of

financial aid behind.

You're leaving money on the

table.

So everybody who plans to go to

college this fall before May

they should complete the FAFSA?

That's right.

Very good.

Well hey, Angelo, what advice do

you have for high school

students?

Definitely agree with the FASFA

for sure.

That was such a big help going

through my college career.

But you know deciding the school

you want to go to, go visit it,

and see what fits best for you,

because each one of our

universities has different

strengths, and see what it means

to you, and what you want to be

a part of.

And then just go through the

process of you know getting

involved in campus, getting

involved in clubs, and working

on campus, so you never know

what's going to happen.

Potentially s scholarship can

help you do anything.

Like you said, to avoid getting

a loan.

But anyway, just to make your

college career smooth-sailing.

Awesome advice.

Deb, let me ask you what would

you say to potential donors

about why they should be giving

to our universities to do what

you're doing so well and that's

lighten that financial load?

I would ask the alumn of the 14

schools and our businesses to

please look at any resources

that they have that they can

donate: their time or

financially.

Children and students coming out

of college right now, it's hard

for them.

Even without debt, I know my own

children I had to co-sign for

credit cards, first cars, and

apartments.

It's tough to get started.

And with the alleviating of some

of their financial liabilities

when they graduate, it's so so

helpful.

And I would just say ask if

anybody could please look to see

what they can do is alum to help

our 14 schools.

It's, it's the future.

I think we'll all say with

students like Angelo alumni like

yourselves.

You know our state system

university students are great

investments and well we're

scholarships.

Thank you all very much.

That's all the time we have

today.

Thank you panelist for talking

with me on such an important

topic.

And thank you all for being and

watching here about how to pay

for college at your state

university.

Thanks.

#ThrowbackThursday: Why I Run for Ooch - Peter Evans - Duration: 0:49.

My name is Peter Evans, and my affiliation with Camp Ooch is I've been a volunteer for the last 8 summers.

And then of course, you know, after seeing what Camp Ooch is all about and understanding what it means to kids...

... it was easy for me to try and really step up my game in terms of volunteering and also fundraising.

I run for Camp Ooch because I really feel like it's a bit of a celebration.

I think it's a celebration for the bravery and spirit of the kids that go through so much...

... and are able to take that wonderful bravery and spirit up to Camp and let them blossom...

... and let them just be kids.

I run for the kids.

💗 5 Creative Hanging Shelving Idea for Small Bedroom 💗 - Duration: 3:41.

Your bedroom is your safe haven.

A simple shelf can add a lot of definition

to your unadorned wall, not to mention if

it can also function as storage.

If you feel like doing a little remodeling

to your little sanctuary but are also tight

on budget, I've got just the perfect solution.

Here are 5 cheap DIY Hanging Shelving Ideas

for Small Bedroom by simphome.com

that hopefully will provide inspiration for you.

1.

Chains and Hooks

With simple chains and hooks, you can turn

your old wood boards or planks

into a nifty piece of storage and simultaneously adorn

your wall with decoration.

Attach four hooks on the ceiling to hang the chains

and make tiered-shelves by fastening

the chains on all the four sides of the boards.

This creative wall storage idea for small bedroom room

will surely add so much personality and warmth.

2.

Floating Mantel Shelf

A mantel shelf will add a lot of interest

to your plain living room and you can nail one

without having to buy them at IKEA.

You will only need three 8 feet 1" x 12" oak boards,

dark walnut stain and wood glue.

Cut all your boards in half to create six 4 feet boards

and sand them to smooth any rough edges.

Stain each board with a sponge brush

and stack them with a 2" overhang on each side

after they are dry.

Apply wood glue once stacked as needed

and use clamps to secure them.

3.

Timeless Classic

Two-tiered open floating shelves seem to give

off a classic vibe in any room they are installed.

Choose plain planks with approximately 3ft wide

and with 2" thickness for the best

looking and most sturdy shelves.

In addition, if you are worried attaching them

with brackets would shatter the beauty

of the shelves because of their stark difference

in colors then you might want to fasten them

with screws into studs.

Polish the woods in dark walnut stain

and seal them with Hemp Oil.

These spots are perfect to display your frames

or vintage vase decorations.

4.

Your Magazine Holder is a helper

Think outside the box all the time and you

might come up with totally unique ideas.

If you still got a tiny space left in your bedroom wall

but it's not big enough

for a cabinet or drawer

you can use your used magazine holder!

That's a convenient solution if you happen

to have one which is made out of wood.

Better stain it first and mount it on the wall

by putting it on its side with nails.

This cute tiny storage is the perfect spot

for your small items like keys, chains, or loose changes.

5.

Make the Most of Your Perimeter of Bedroom Wall

Storing all your book collection in a mahogany

vertical bookshelf might make your room look

overcrowded if you don't have a walk-in closet

and use ordinary wardrobe instead.

You can use the empty space below your ceiling

to store your books, and all your other stuff

by building shelves along the entire perimeter

of your bedroom walls right under the ceiling.

Ready to make your small haven even cozier

with these 5 cheap DIY hanging shelving ideas

Summit: Youth Share Stories for Social Justice - Duration: 2:08.

This is the Martin Luther King Jr. Youth Service Summit. We are a partner and we

are partnered with Emily K Davis and also with the YMCA. What we wanted to do

is really look at the idea of service and look at the voices of youth

in the community and how they perceive justice and the messages of Martin

Luther King Jr. as they relate to our youth today. They're having the

opportunity to one, listen to the voices of youth. (shaking off my shoulder, shaking off my shoulders)

Two, to be able to put their voices and to paper.

And three, to be able to take that and put it in a medium like video

storytelling to be able to tell the stories of what they see justice issues

and advancements in our community. (What does that mean to you? Justice for all, justice for none, justice for some, we have a justice problem)

We we want to provide greater service and having youth voice in that is a

great way to start the dialogues that we need to have as a community across our

state. Especially around issues of justice, issues of inclusion. Bringing

different communities together. We really want to be able to look at what civility

or the ability to speak opinions, different opinions and one context

together and try to porch forward by the dialogue. (Martin Luther King Jr. had a dream and here is ours)

One of the things about 4-H is we can have difficult conversations and conversations that come and bring

different voices together but we do it in the context of joy, of fun, being able

to share and to walk out of this place as friends as people working

together into a better future for Iowa.
