KBj0dAGOeak-00000-00000560-00000872 in the last video we selected fonts from KBj0dAGOeak-00001-00000873-00001066 google fonts in this one we're going to KBj0dAGOeak-00002-00001067-00001364 add it to the HTML now one thing I've KBj0dAGOeak-00003-00001365-00001646 done is I've actually commented out my KBj0dAGOeak-00004-00001647-00001787 bootstrap you don't need to do that KBj0dAGOeak-00005-00001788-00002009 commenting out means that the browser KBj0dAGOeak-00006-00002010-00002183 doesn't read it but the code is still KBj0dAGOeak-00007-00002184-00002405 there if I need it later and a comment KBj0dAGOeak-00008-00002406-00002785 is pointy bracket exclamation mark two KBj0dAGOeak-00009-00002786-00002990 hyphens at the start and then afterwards KBj0dAGOeak-00010-00002991-00003133 you've got two hyphens KBj0dAGOeak-00011-00003134-00003331 and a closing pointy bracket and that KBj0dAGOeak-00012-00003332-00003509 basically hides the code from the KBj0dAGOeak-00013-00003510-00003818 browser because that way we can see the KBj0dAGOeak-00014-00003819-00004079 original ugly font of times new roman' KBj0dAGOeak-00015-00004079-00004253 because this is what we're going to KBj0dAGOeak-00016-00004254-00004508 change bootstrap has a default font of KBj0dAGOeak-00017-00004509-00004747 open sans and depending on what font KBj0dAGOeak-00018-00004748-00004931 you're choosing it can be hard to see if KBj0dAGOeak-00019-00004932-00005084 it's applying or not so I want to make KBj0dAGOeak-00020-00005085-00005438 it fairly obvious so now we go back to KBj0dAGOeak-00021-00005439-00005695 google fonts these are the ones that I KBj0dAGOeak-00022-00005696-00005929 chose earlier light and bold now one KBj0dAGOeak-00023-00005930-00006149 other thing I'm going to do is go to KBj0dAGOeak-00024-00006150-00006416 Roboto condensed my body text font and KBj0dAGOeak-00025-00006417-00007070 I'm also going to choose regular 400 so KBj0dAGOeak-00026-00007070-00007378 I'll select that style actually I'm KBj0dAGOeak-00027-00007379-00007589 going to choose the 400 italic because KBj0dAGOeak-00028-00007590-00007751 that way I can choose show you two KBj0dAGOeak-00029-00007752-00008078 things when we apply it to CSS later so KBj0dAGOeak-00030-00008079-00008327 now these are the fonts I have selected KBj0dAGOeak-00031-00008328-00008485 if I change my mind and want to get rid KBj0dAGOeak-00032-00008486-00008741 of one I just hit the - or you can go KBj0dAGOeak-00033-00008742-00008981 removal but now we want to move from KBj0dAGOeak-00034-00008982-00009331 review to embed so I'm clicking on embed KBj0dAGOeak-00035-00009332-00009644 and this is the code that we want this KBj0dAGOeak-00036-00009645-00010073 is the link tag select it copy it go KBj0dAGOeak-00037-00010074-00010414 back to Dreamweaver and we just pop it KBj0dAGOeak-00038-00010415-00010831 in here and I'll just indent that a KBj0dAGOeak-00039-00010832-00011084 little bit so it's a bit neater great so KBj0dAGOeak-00040-00011085-00011321 now we have the code and we can see KBj0dAGOeak-00041-00011322-00011669 we've got Roboto condensed we have a KBj0dAGOeak-00042-00011670-00011984 telleth available and we have it at the KBj0dAGOeak-00043-00011985-00012458 waist of 300 and 400 we have Roboto slab KBj0dAGOeak-00044-00012459-00012724 and that one we've just got as the KBj0dAGOeak-00045-00012725-00013060 weight 700 which is bold so all of this KBj0dAGOeak-00046-00013061-00013336 is ready for our next video where we are KBj0dAGOeak-00047-00013337-00013385 going KBj0dAGOeak-00048-00013386-00013718 to show you how to add this in the CSS KBj0dAGOeak-00049-00013719-00013949 because you can see it hasn't added it KBj0dAGOeak-00050-00013950-00014269 here yet all this link does is tell the KBj0dAGOeak-00051-00014271-00014606 browser where to find it it doesn't tell KBj0dAGOeak-00052-00014607-00014894 it how to apply it we need CSS for the KBj0dAGOeak-00053-00014894-00015161 visual style

produce a crop we know we have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00154-00038575-00038862 fertilizers we have chemicals pesticides KBCYNyCZIVQ-00155-00038863-00039039 we have environmental controls all these KBCYNyCZIVQ-00156-00039040-00039262 things contribute to the success KBCYNyCZIVQ-00157-00039263-00039535 of the crop you grow in your greenhouse KBCYNyCZIVQ-00158-00039536-00039718 now as we know not all growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00159-00039719-00040015 work for every single individual person KBCYNyCZIVQ-00160-00040016-00040095 some KBCYNyCZIVQ-00161-00040096-00040302 growing media for instance some KBCYNyCZIVQ-00162-00040303-00040535 customers we find bark growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00163-00040536-00040702 work better for them than let's say KBCYNyCZIVQ-00164-00040703-00040918 peat-based mix so it depends on kind of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00165-00040919-00041143 your preferences and what works best for KBCYNyCZIVQ-00166-00041144-00041311 your situation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00167-00041312-00041527 but generally speaking what we look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00168-00041528-00041702 are the crops that are grown KBCYNyCZIVQ-00169-00041703-00041823 are you growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00170-00041824-00041983 outdoors you're growing indoors are you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00171-00041984-00042215 growing plugs those types of crops will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00172-00042216-00042383 influence type of growing media that you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00173-00042384-00042574 would need we also look at cultural KBCYNyCZIVQ-00174-00042575-00042751 practices if you're in a growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00175-00042752-00042943 situation where maybe the greenhouses KBCYNyCZIVQ-00176-00042944-00043174 have low ceilings KBCYNyCZIVQ-00177-00043175-00043327 there's a lot of humidity it's kind of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00178-00043328-00043543 hard to get air flow probably a mix that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00179-00043544-00043735 dries out fast would make more sense or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00180-00043736-00043911 something at least that highs has a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00181-00043912-00044118 higher level of air porosity KBCYNyCZIVQ-00182-00044119-00044295 uh and we also look at the time of year KBCYNyCZIVQ-00183-00044296-00044439 certainly growing in the winter as we KBCYNyCZIVQ-00184-00044440-00044655 all know is very different than growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00185-00044656-00044790 in the late spring into the summer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00186-00044791-00044990 months and last thing we look at is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00187-00044991-00045239 insurance features yes growers do like KBCYNyCZIVQ-00188-00045240-00045335 the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00189-00045336-00045518 inclusion of biological additives in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00190-00045519-00045718 growing media you have some that will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00191-00045719-00045958 help with nutrient acquisition and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00192-00045959-00046118 others that can help with with disease KBCYNyCZIVQ-00193-00046119-00046246 suppression as well so those things KBCYNyCZIVQ-00194-00046247-00046446 we'll talk about a little bit later but KBCYNyCZIVQ-00195-00046447-00046583 the bottom line is the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00196-00046584-00046767 doesn't really grow the crop it's really KBCYNyCZIVQ-00197-00046768-00046951 the skill of the grower and the inputs KBCYNyCZIVQ-00198-00046952-00047190 that go into it that help produce a high KBCYNyCZIVQ-00199-00047191-00047399 quality crop but as we all know KBCYNyCZIVQ-00200-00047400-00047583 if the growing media doesn't work best KBCYNyCZIVQ-00201-00047584-00047743 for your situation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00202-00047744-00047895 then it's probably time to look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00203-00047896-00048151 something that works better KBCYNyCZIVQ-00204-00048152-00048286 so in this presentation we're going to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00205-00048287-00048423 talk about three things physical KBCYNyCZIVQ-00206-00048424-00048615 properties chemical properties and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00207-00048616-00048839 biological properties KBCYNyCZIVQ-00208-00048840-00049102 so starting with physical properties KBCYNyCZIVQ-00209-00049103-00049262 now if we take a look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00210-00049263-00049471 the individual components that are used KBCYNyCZIVQ-00211-00049472-00049646 to make up a growing media we have a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00212-00049647-00049871 large plethora of materials out there in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00213-00049872-00050079 the market today and of course this is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00214-00050080-00050318 is not an exhaustive list but in general KBCYNyCZIVQ-00215-00050319-00050479 we look at it you know instead of going KBCYNyCZIVQ-00216-00050480-00050767 into nuances of every single one of them KBCYNyCZIVQ-00217-00050768-00050918 let's just say that for instance your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00218-00050919-00051086 organic components you know your peat KBCYNyCZIVQ-00219-00051087-00051246 your core uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-00220-00051247-00051399 your wood products all those have a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00221-00051400-00051607 tendency to have very fairly high water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00222-00051608-00051846 holding capacity and relatively decent KBCYNyCZIVQ-00223-00051847-00052054 air porosity but they also do tend to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00224-00052055-00052175 settle a little bit more over time so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00225-00052176-00052319 you get a little bit more compaction and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00226-00052320-00052503 they're also very lightweight KBCYNyCZIVQ-00227-00052504-00052671 as soon as we start bringing aggregates KBCYNyCZIVQ-00228-00052672-00052919 in like your perlite your vermiculite KBCYNyCZIVQ-00229-00052920-00053111 these have a tendency to reduce your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00230-00053112-00053311 water holding capacity to some degree KBCYNyCZIVQ-00231-00053312-00053503 and increase your air space KBCYNyCZIVQ-00232-00053504-00053726 so in general individual components have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00233-00053727-00053950 some great physical properties KBCYNyCZIVQ-00234-00053951-00054230 but once we put them together into a mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00235-00054232-00054423 these individual components when they KBCYNyCZIVQ-00236-00054424-00054550 work together they produce different KBCYNyCZIVQ-00237-00054551-00054838 types of properties of kind of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00238-00054839-00054982 you know KBCYNyCZIVQ-00239-00054983-00055166 two plus two doesn't necessarily equal KBCYNyCZIVQ-00240-00055167-00055391 four in all cases KBCYNyCZIVQ-00241-00055391-00055526 so if you look at different categories KBCYNyCZIVQ-00242-00055527-00055654 of growing media so we're going to take KBCYNyCZIVQ-00243-00055655-00055830 the components we're gonna mix them KBCYNyCZIVQ-00244-00055832-00056030 together and we're gonna create a mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00245-00056032-00056247 first look at a peak perlite mix or even KBCYNyCZIVQ-00246-00056248-00056550 a peak core pearlite growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00247-00056551-00056742 so in general if we look at peat and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00248-00056744-00056903 core both of them have very similar KBCYNyCZIVQ-00249-00056904-00057079 water holding characteristics they also KBCYNyCZIVQ-00250-00057079-00057335 have very similar air porosities KBCYNyCZIVQ-00251-00057336-00057415 so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00252-00057416-00057615 tweaking the different percentages it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00253-00057616-00057863 does make some difference but in general KBCYNyCZIVQ-00254-00057864-00058054 it's the perlite that makes a greater KBCYNyCZIVQ-00255-00058055-00058303 difference in the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00256-00058304-00058430 we tend to find as the perlite KBCYNyCZIVQ-00257-00058432-00058623 percentage increases KBCYNyCZIVQ-00258-00058624-00058807 we tend to increase our air space in our KBCYNyCZIVQ-00259-00058808-00058966 growing media because plant roots do KBCYNyCZIVQ-00260-00058967-00059247 need oxygen to breathe we also decrease KBCYNyCZIVQ-00261-00059248-00059399 our water holding capacity because we KBCYNyCZIVQ-00262-00059400-00059630 replace air space with with what used to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00263-00059632-00059775 hold water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00264-00059776-00059903 and in general because there's less KBCYNyCZIVQ-00265-00059904-00060063 water retention we tend to find our KBCYNyCZIVQ-00266-00060064-00060271 growing media dries out faster and i KBCYNyCZIVQ-00267-00060272-00060438 don't think this is a mystery to anybody KBCYNyCZIVQ-00268-00060439-00060719 who's listening to this presentation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00269-00060720-00060950 so in general higher percentage KBCYNyCZIVQ-00270-00060951-00061150 pearlite growing media whether it be KBCYNyCZIVQ-00271-00061151-00061406 peak based or peak core based KBCYNyCZIVQ-00272-00061407-00061526 when i say higher percentage we're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00273-00061527-00061838 talking 20 25 maybe 30 percent KBCYNyCZIVQ-00274-00061839-00062023 really are ideal for situations where KBCYNyCZIVQ-00275-00062024-00062199 you have higher humidity growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00276-00062200-00062335 conditions KBCYNyCZIVQ-00277-00062336-00062542 or where the conditions are low light KBCYNyCZIVQ-00278-00062544-00062911 yet short days or cloudy a lot of rain KBCYNyCZIVQ-00279-00062912-00063054 so we're talking winter months for KBCYNyCZIVQ-00280-00063055-00063319 instance or early spring months KBCYNyCZIVQ-00281-00063320-00063519 those are times a year when a high KBCYNyCZIVQ-00282-00063520-00063694 percentage perlite mix makes sense KBCYNyCZIVQ-00283-00063695-00063887 because you have good air space since KBCYNyCZIVQ-00284-00063888-00064054 things aren't drying out very well these KBCYNyCZIVQ-00285-00064055-00064199 tend to have reduced water holding KBCYNyCZIVQ-00286-00064200-00064350 capacity anyway KBCYNyCZIVQ-00287-00064351-00064623 they're also good mixes to use when you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00288-00064624-00064871 have employees that tend to over water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00289-00064872-00065087 which we do tend to find does take place KBCYNyCZIVQ-00290-00065088-00065175 a lot KBCYNyCZIVQ-00291-00065176-00065415 so again that works out really well for KBCYNyCZIVQ-00292-00065416-00065638 a lower percentage perlite mix so peat KBCYNyCZIVQ-00293-00065639-00066031 perlite or p core perlite mix with 15 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00294-00066032-00066175 perlite or less KBCYNyCZIVQ-00295-00066176-00066367 although they work very well year round KBCYNyCZIVQ-00296-00066368-00066599 not a problem they tend to be able to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00297-00066600-00066767 shine a little bit more during the late KBCYNyCZIVQ-00298-00066768-00066975 spring and summer months when water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00299-00066976-00067223 retention is desirable KBCYNyCZIVQ-00300-00067224-00067438 higher water retention that is and these KBCYNyCZIVQ-00301-00067439-00067775 products can can deliver that for you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00302-00067776-00068023 another categories are peak bark media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00303-00068024-00068287 in general you know peak park media also KBCYNyCZIVQ-00304-00068288-00068438 have perlite KBCYNyCZIVQ-00305-00068439-00068575 incorporated into them especially in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00306-00068576-00068767 greenhouse operations KBCYNyCZIVQ-00307-00068768-00069055 so as we increase percentage of bark and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00308-00069056-00069247 perlite we look at reducing water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00309-00069248-00069471 holding capacity it also increases the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00310-00069472-00069663 weight of the growing media as well so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00311-00069664-00069791 it doesn't tip over which makes it a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00312-00069792-00070031 good outdoor growing mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00313-00070032-00070271 but that's up to a point so for instance KBCYNyCZIVQ-00314-00070272-00070431 it's the type of bark that's important KBCYNyCZIVQ-00315-00070432-00070599 if it's a fine bar KBCYNyCZIVQ-00316-00070600-00070799 or a lot of your pieces are eighth inch KBCYNyCZIVQ-00317-00070800-00070943 or smaller KBCYNyCZIVQ-00318-00070944-00071150 uh they will actually plug up your air KBCYNyCZIVQ-00319-00071151-00071335 space so instead of increasing air space KBCYNyCZIVQ-00320-00071336-00071519 it actually decreases it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00321-00071520-00071703 and it kind of kind of makes it more of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00322-00071704-00071887 a muckier type product so it kind of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00323-00071888-00072167 increases water holding a little bit KBCYNyCZIVQ-00324-00072168-00072359 and it does that does definitely dry a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00325-00072360-00072599 little bit more slowly so it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00326-00072600-00072799 so it makes a lot of bark finds it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00327-00072800-00072950 probably not ideal KBCYNyCZIVQ-00328-00072951-00073119 for winter growing but maybe it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00329-00073120-00073255 certainly can be useful for summer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00330-00073256-00073350 growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00331-00073351-00073494 but what most growers are looking for KBCYNyCZIVQ-00332-00073495-00073703 are the core spark particles the three KBCYNyCZIVQ-00333-00073704-00073999 inch the half inch and larger KBCYNyCZIVQ-00334-00074000-00074238 as the ink as those components increase KBCYNyCZIVQ-00335-00074239-00074415 in percentages along with the perlite we KBCYNyCZIVQ-00336-00074416-00074647 will decrease water holding capacity and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00337-00074648-00074903 definitely increase our air porosity KBCYNyCZIVQ-00338-00074904-00075079 now for wood KBCYNyCZIVQ-00339-00075080-00075375 wood fiber peat based mixes wood fiber KBCYNyCZIVQ-00340-00075376-00075631 has similar water holding capacity to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00341-00075632-00075759 peat moss KBCYNyCZIVQ-00342-00075760-00075935 and it does bump up your air porosity KBCYNyCZIVQ-00343-00075936-00076094 over peat moss KBCYNyCZIVQ-00344-00076095-00076382 a lot of cases we hear that wood fiber KBCYNyCZIVQ-00345-00076383-00076567 is a replacement for perlite that's not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00346-00076568-00076703 exactly true KBCYNyCZIVQ-00347-00076704-00076982 perlite reduces water retention where KBCYNyCZIVQ-00348-00076983-00077159 the wood fiber will tend to increase KBCYNyCZIVQ-00349-00077160-00077311 water retention so you're not going to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00350-00077312-00077550 get that same characteristic there they KBCYNyCZIVQ-00351-00077551-00077791 do offer very similar air processes KBCYNyCZIVQ-00352-00077792-00077950 which would be true KBCYNyCZIVQ-00353-00077951-00078071 but another thing i would keep in mind KBCYNyCZIVQ-00354-00078072-00078326 wood fiber is when you mix wood fiber in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00355-00078327-00078567 with peat because wood is a lighter KBCYNyCZIVQ-00356-00078568-00078655 color KBCYNyCZIVQ-00357-00078656-00078871 it lightens up the overall look of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00358-00078872-00079047 mix and if you're like me KBCYNyCZIVQ-00359-00079048-00079206 or like a lot of growers KBCYNyCZIVQ-00360-00079207-00079359 where you look at the surface of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00361-00079360-00079503 growing media you look at the color of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00362-00079504-00079743 it to determine when to water or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00363-00079744-00079894 re-water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00364-00079895-00080126 having that lighter colored wood fiber KBCYNyCZIVQ-00365-00080127-00080262 mixed in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00366-00080263-00080503 uh has a tendency to make the mix look KBCYNyCZIVQ-00367-00080504-00080671 light colored all the time so it's much KBCYNyCZIVQ-00368-00080672-00080847 easier to over water so again it's just KBCYNyCZIVQ-00369-00080848-00080999 simply an adjustment that needs to take KBCYNyCZIVQ-00370-00081000-00081247 place figure that out KBCYNyCZIVQ-00371-00081248-00081438 now once you have your growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00372-00081439-00081638 uh you get your components you're maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-00373-00081639-00081879 you're busting apart compressed bales or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00374-00081880-00082055 maybe you're making your own mix there KBCYNyCZIVQ-00375-00082056-00082215 are factors KBCYNyCZIVQ-00376-00082216-00082375 that are within your control that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00377-00082376-00082518 actually do influence the physical KBCYNyCZIVQ-00378-00082519-00082662 properties of the mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00379-00082663-00082879 so let's start with the mixing process KBCYNyCZIVQ-00380-00082880-00082967 first KBCYNyCZIVQ-00381-00082968-00083182 it's when you're fluffing bales or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00382-00083183-00083359 making your growing media putting the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00383-00083360-00083494 components together you want to use KBCYNyCZIVQ-00384-00083495-00083743 machines with slow turning ribbons and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00385-00083744-00083918 paddles most everything that's out there KBCYNyCZIVQ-00386-00083919-00084167 in the market today fits that bill KBCYNyCZIVQ-00387-00084168-00084350 but second part is you want to minimize KBCYNyCZIVQ-00388-00084351-00084487 the amount of time that you're actually KBCYNyCZIVQ-00389-00084488-00084711 mixing these components together KBCYNyCZIVQ-00390-00084712-00084879 the reason for it is as we'll see down KBCYNyCZIVQ-00391-00084880-00085062 below it creates a lot of fines it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00392-00085063-00085238 basically busts up the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00393-00085239-00085415 fibers and breaks down the the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00394-00085416-00085535 components KBCYNyCZIVQ-00395-00085536-00085662 it's also a good idea to add some KBCYNyCZIVQ-00396-00085663-00085894 moisture it keeps down some of your dust KBCYNyCZIVQ-00397-00085895-00086103 it helps to fluff out the mix a little KBCYNyCZIVQ-00398-00086104-00086223 bit more so you actually get a little KBCYNyCZIVQ-00399-00086224-00086415 bit increase in volume KBCYNyCZIVQ-00400-00086416-00086623 when you're filling your containers KBCYNyCZIVQ-00401-00086624-00086871 now with the excess mixing or fluffing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00402-00086872-00087038 problem is it will destroy your peak KBCYNyCZIVQ-00403-00087039-00087287 fibers and crush your aggregates so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00404-00087288-00087479 you want to take a nice KBCYNyCZIVQ-00405-00087480-00087655 growing on type product and you want to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00406-00087656-00087887 convert it into a plug mix just keep it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00407-00087888-00088118 in your mixer too long and you can very KBCYNyCZIVQ-00408-00088119-00088262 easily do that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00409-00088263-00088455 but this creation of fines is not good KBCYNyCZIVQ-00410-00088456-00088638 because it reduces the air space in your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00411-00088639-00088759 growing mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00412-00088760-00089031 it makes drainage through your mix slow KBCYNyCZIVQ-00413-00089032-00089223 way down and what ends up happening is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00414-00089224-00089391 your growing media dries out slowly so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00415-00089392-00089655 when you put a plant into that matrix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00416-00089656-00089855 plant roots are not shall we say KBCYNyCZIVQ-00417-00089856-00090071 drinking the water is quickly the mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00418-00090072-00090238 just doesn't have a lot of air movement KBCYNyCZIVQ-00419-00090239-00090423 in it the plant roots don't grow very KBCYNyCZIVQ-00420-00090424-00090647 well so the end result is you're not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00421-00090648-00090847 going to have an ideal growing situation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00422-00090848-00091047 for that crop KBCYNyCZIVQ-00423-00091048-00091255 so once you have your containers filled KBCYNyCZIVQ-00424-00091256-00091479 now we look at the issue of compaction KBCYNyCZIVQ-00425-00091480-00091638 it's not a good idea to compact the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00426-00091639-00091911 growing media so we have a graphic here KBCYNyCZIVQ-00427-00091912-00092087 two containers with the same amount of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00428-00092088-00092279 mix in them the one on the left is not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00429-00092280-00092455 compacted the one on the right is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00430-00092456-00092671 compacted now when you compact your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00431-00092672-00092935 growing media the first thing that shall KBCYNyCZIVQ-00432-00092936-00093191 we say gives would be your largest pores KBCYNyCZIVQ-00433-00093192-00093335 in your growing media and those large KBCYNyCZIVQ-00434-00093336-00093582 pores are where your air is retained KBCYNyCZIVQ-00435-00093583-00093759 so when you compress the mix you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00436-00093760-00093950 actually collapsing the air space in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00437-00093951-00094238 groin media leaving behind water a lot KBCYNyCZIVQ-00438-00094239-00094447 more well not necessarily more water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00439-00094448-00094623 retention but a little bit more water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00440-00094624-00094911 retention we don't have much air so as a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00441-00094912-00095062 result you're going to end up with a mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00442-00095063-00095311 that just stays soggy wet and doesn't KBCYNyCZIVQ-00443-00095312-00095550 dry out very rapidly and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00444-00095551-00095799 will affect plant growth KBCYNyCZIVQ-00445-00095800-00095982 another component to think about is once KBCYNyCZIVQ-00446-00095983-00096167 you got your crop planted and out on the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00447-00096168-00096359 bench now we look at the watering KBCYNyCZIVQ-00448-00096360-00096518 situation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00449-00096519-00096671 so if we take a look at watering it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00450-00096672-00096823 affects a lot of things about crop KBCYNyCZIVQ-00451-00096824-00096999 quality first of all we know that when KBCYNyCZIVQ-00452-00097000-00097182 the mix stays wet we tend to see KBCYNyCZIVQ-00453-00097183-00097382 stretched kind of thin KBCYNyCZIVQ-00454-00097383-00097599 kind of wimpy growth KBCYNyCZIVQ-00455-00097600-00097767 so if you keep the water back it'll tend KBCYNyCZIVQ-00456-00097768-00097887 to keep the plant a little bit more KBCYNyCZIVQ-00457-00097888-00098023 compact KBCYNyCZIVQ-00458-00098024-00098215 we also see that if the mix stays a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00459-00098216-00098391 little too wet we see more issues with KBCYNyCZIVQ-00460-00098392-00098567 root disease specifically pithium and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00461-00098568-00098726 phytophthora KBCYNyCZIVQ-00462-00098727-00098950 um we also see more algae growth on the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00463-00098951-00099159 media surface which then attracts your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00464-00099160-00099303 shore flies because that's their main KBCYNyCZIVQ-00465-00099304-00099431 food source KBCYNyCZIVQ-00466-00099432-00099615 and also can attract fungusnets because KBCYNyCZIVQ-00467-00099616-00099838 they feed from fungi which will grow KBCYNyCZIVQ-00468-00099839-00100047 within the growing media if it stays wet KBCYNyCZIVQ-00469-00100048-00100231 for a long period of time so again you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00470-00100232-00100399 want to cut these critters down and the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00471-00100400-00100662 algae down let the media dry out more KBCYNyCZIVQ-00472-00100663-00100823 between waterings and it'll make a big KBCYNyCZIVQ-00473-00100824-00101023 difference and of course plant height KBCYNyCZIVQ-00474-00101024-00101279 and stretching kind of work hand in hand KBCYNyCZIVQ-00475-00101280-00101406 instead of using growth regulators KBCYNyCZIVQ-00476-00101407-00101615 sometimes you can use KBCYNyCZIVQ-00477-00101616-00101855 restricting water to actually help keep KBCYNyCZIVQ-00478-00101856-00102150 the height of plants down as well KBCYNyCZIVQ-00479-00102151-00102294 what i find interesting is that most KBCYNyCZIVQ-00480-00102295-00102551 greenhouse operations oftentimes the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00481-00102552-00102871 watering is relegated to employees that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00482-00102872-00103015 are don't have a lot of experience KBCYNyCZIVQ-00483-00103016-00103190 especially with watering KBCYNyCZIVQ-00484-00103191-00103342 so if they're hired specifically to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00485-00103343-00103518 water crops they're probably thinking if KBCYNyCZIVQ-00486-00103519-00103751 i'm not watering i'm not working KBCYNyCZIVQ-00487-00103752-00103902 so they will continue to water and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00488-00103903-00104063 sometimes they can over water and they KBCYNyCZIVQ-00489-00104064-00104327 can make things a a sobbing mess KBCYNyCZIVQ-00490-00104328-00104527 so in that case what do you do KBCYNyCZIVQ-00491-00104528-00104694 well there are some tips you can use to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00492-00104695-00104943 train new employees on how to water uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-00493-00104944-00105119 first one and i think we're all aware of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00494-00105120-00105278 this if you're going to water the best KBCYNyCZIVQ-00495-00105279-00105486 time to do it is in the morning KBCYNyCZIVQ-00496-00105488-00105671 this allows for the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00497-00105672-00105854 surface to dry out which minimizes some KBCYNyCZIVQ-00498-00105855-00106047 of your root disease issues to some KBCYNyCZIVQ-00499-00106048-00106247 degree and of course we know it also KBCYNyCZIVQ-00500-00106248-00106439 dries out your foliage which minimizes KBCYNyCZIVQ-00501-00106440-00106671 foliar diseases KBCYNyCZIVQ-00502-00106672-00106878 if the weather is going to be cool and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00503-00106879-00107102 cloudy especially in the winter months KBCYNyCZIVQ-00504-00107103-00107319 early spring it's like that almost every KBCYNyCZIVQ-00505-00107320-00107447 day anyway KBCYNyCZIVQ-00506-00107448-00107615 your watering frequency is going to be KBCYNyCZIVQ-00507-00107616-00107815 very much reduced you're not going to do KBCYNyCZIVQ-00508-00107816-00108007 very much watering at all and since KBCYNyCZIVQ-00509-00108008-00108207 oftentimes that's where spring crops KBCYNyCZIVQ-00510-00108208-00108407 start is in this time of year you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00511-00108408-00108566 really not watering all that frequently KBCYNyCZIVQ-00512-00108567-00108695 so you want to try to encourage your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00513-00108696-00108839 employees to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00514-00108840-00109023 keep in mind that you do little to no KBCYNyCZIVQ-00515-00109024-00109319 watering during cloudy cold wet days of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00516-00109320-00109495 the year because the plants aren't going KBCYNyCZIVQ-00517-00109496-00109678 to use the water anyway KBCYNyCZIVQ-00518-00109679-00109919 now as we migrate through the season or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00519-00109920-00110086 even within that season we can have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00520-00110088-00110215 sunny weather KBCYNyCZIVQ-00521-00110216-00110423 with really good air flow because it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00522-00110424-00110551 warmer outside we're opening up the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00523-00110552-00110647 vents KBCYNyCZIVQ-00524-00110648-00110790 what's going to happen is your plants KBCYNyCZIVQ-00525-00110791-00110910 are growing more actively they're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00526-00110911-00111063 utilizing the water from the growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00527-00111064-00111295 medium more quickly so watering KBCYNyCZIVQ-00528-00111296-00111671 frequency will be required to go up so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00529-00111672-00111871 again you water more when it's sunny you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00530-00111872-00112102 water less when it's cloudy KBCYNyCZIVQ-00531-00112103-00112343 so how do you know when to water well KBCYNyCZIVQ-00532-00112344-00112486 one thing you do is observe the surface KBCYNyCZIVQ-00533-00112488-00112639 of the growing media this is especially KBCYNyCZIVQ-00534-00112640-00112902 true with heat perlite based mixes or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00535-00112903-00113110 just general purpose mixes now in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00536-00113111-00113286 background of this particular slide you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00537-00113288-00113439 see kind of these cell packs in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00538-00113440-00113623 background the ones on the left and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00539-00113624-00113831 across the top notice that the color of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00540-00113832-00113999 the surface of the growing media is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00541-00114000-00114215 lighter colored the peat is a light KBCYNyCZIVQ-00542-00114216-00114343 brown to maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-00543-00114344-00114558 even like a tannish color KBCYNyCZIVQ-00544-00114559-00114799 that usually indicates time to water the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00545-00114800-00115102 cell or the cell pack right dead center KBCYNyCZIVQ-00546-00115103-00115271 in the middle of the slide notice the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00547-00115272-00115439 growing media surface is kind of a dark KBCYNyCZIVQ-00548-00115440-00115623 brown almost black color that would KBCYNyCZIVQ-00549-00115624-00115790 indicate that the mix is still fairly KBCYNyCZIVQ-00550-00115791-00116007 wet you do not need to water it so again KBCYNyCZIVQ-00551-00116008-00116151 you can use color of the surface of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00552-00116152-00116358 growing media as an indicator KBCYNyCZIVQ-00553-00116359-00116566 they tend to find this with core mixes KBCYNyCZIVQ-00554-00116567-00116686 especially KBCYNyCZIVQ-00555-00116688-00116990 mixes that contain 20 or more core KBCYNyCZIVQ-00556-00116991-00117271 wood fiber mixes and even bark mixes KBCYNyCZIVQ-00557-00117272-00117486 they're the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00558-00117488-00117671 shall we say the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00559-00117672-00117847 the reflection of what's going on KBCYNyCZIVQ-00560-00117848-00118015 surface the surface tends to drop more KBCYNyCZIVQ-00561-00118016-00118286 rapidly than underneath because you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00562-00118288-00118471 don't have that capillary structure set KBCYNyCZIVQ-00563-00118472-00118647 up quite as nicely as you do with a peat KBCYNyCZIVQ-00564-00118648-00118783 based mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00565-00118783-00118975 uh you tend to see the surface drought KBCYNyCZIVQ-00566-00118976-00119143 faster than what's going on below so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00567-00119144-00119327 it's not necessarily representing what's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00568-00119328-00119615 going on below in that case KBCYNyCZIVQ-00569-00119616-00119775 pick up a container feel the weight of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00570-00119776-00119983 it if it feels light and the water if KBCYNyCZIVQ-00571-00119983-00120214 it's heavy you don't another option is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00572-00120215-00120375 stick your finger in the pot especially KBCYNyCZIVQ-00573-00120376-00120510 larger pots KBCYNyCZIVQ-00574-00120511-00120702 uh feel the moisture content you can KBCYNyCZIVQ-00575-00120703-00120927 tell based on the feel whether or not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00576-00120928-00121214 the mix needs to be watered or not and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00577-00121215-00121390 when in doubt just pull the pot off the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00578-00121391-00121502 root ball and take a look at the root KBCYNyCZIVQ-00579-00121503-00121766 ball and you can look at see where the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00580-00121767-00121934 moisture is in the mix and see if it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00581-00121935-00122175 wet or if it's not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00582-00122176-00122431 chemical properties KBCYNyCZIVQ-00583-00122432-00122590 so we'll look at the chemical properties KBCYNyCZIVQ-00584-00122591-00122790 first of the unused growing media then KBCYNyCZIVQ-00585-00122791-00122943 we're going to look at it as we shift KBCYNyCZIVQ-00586-00122944-00123102 into in-use KBCYNyCZIVQ-00587-00123103-00123327 production of the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00588-00123328-00123543 so looking at ph and ec so for instance KBCYNyCZIVQ-00589-00123544-00123751 most growing media are amended with KBCYNyCZIVQ-00590-00123752-00123919 limestone and the reason for that is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00591-00123920-00124143 peat moss and bark tend to be fairly KBCYNyCZIVQ-00592-00124144-00124263 acidic KBCYNyCZIVQ-00593-00124264-00124447 we're trying to target a starting peach KBCYNyCZIVQ-00594-00124448-00124695 of 5.4 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00595-00124696-00124854 hopefully not as high as 6.0 but KBCYNyCZIVQ-00596-00124855-00125039 sometimes it will land there especially KBCYNyCZIVQ-00597-00125040-00125271 if the mix a little bit on the wet side KBCYNyCZIVQ-00598-00125272-00125519 now if the mix is less than two months KBCYNyCZIVQ-00599-00125520-00125807 old since it was produced or if it's on KBCYNyCZIVQ-00600-00125808-00126014 the dry side the pizza will be drier KBCYNyCZIVQ-00601-00126015-00126254 dustier the limestone probably hasn't KBCYNyCZIVQ-00602-00126255-00126439 activated yet so it's not unusual for KBCYNyCZIVQ-00603-00126440-00126695 the peach to start out below five as a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00604-00126696-00126871 matter of fact when we manufacture KBCYNyCZIVQ-00605-00126872-00127063 pro-mix in our factory KBCYNyCZIVQ-00606-00127064-00127278 uh we actually shoot for the ideal KBCYNyCZIVQ-00607-00127279-00127527 starting ph range again this is coming KBCYNyCZIVQ-00608-00127528-00127654 off the line right after it's made in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00609-00127655-00128023 the factory between 4.6 and 4.9 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00610-00128024-00128223 that's because the lime hasn't had a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00611-00128224-00128534 chance to activate yet from moisture KBCYNyCZIVQ-00612-00128535-00128719 we also add starter fertilizer charge KBCYNyCZIVQ-00613-00128720-00128883 into the groin media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00614-00128883-00129151 so most companies do that even with KBCYNyCZIVQ-00615-00129152-00129334 organic mixes or start a fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00616-00129335-00129423 charge KBCYNyCZIVQ-00617-00129424-00129671 so for seedlings usually these charges KBCYNyCZIVQ-00618-00129672-00129751 last KBCYNyCZIVQ-00619-00129752-00129975 enough to get them up to the first true KBCYNyCZIVQ-00620-00129976-00130110 leaf stage KBCYNyCZIVQ-00621-00130111-00130334 and typically the ec starting out is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00622-00130335-00130486 between KBCYNyCZIVQ-00623-00130488-00130783 0.4 to 1.0 millimoles per centimeter KBCYNyCZIVQ-00624-00130783-00130990 for growing on mixes or even perennial KBCYNyCZIVQ-00625-00130991-00131271 mixes outdoor mixes we see a persistence KBCYNyCZIVQ-00626-00131272-00131431 of about seven days on that starter KBCYNyCZIVQ-00627-00131432-00131654 fertilizer so your ecs run a little bit KBCYNyCZIVQ-00628-00131655-00131902 higher because they're bigger plants KBCYNyCZIVQ-00629-00131903-00132239 between 0.7 and 2.0 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00630-00132240-00132375 now KBCYNyCZIVQ-00631-00132376-00132678 as that unused mix ages inside the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00632-00132679-00132847 package we all know about the wetting KBCYNyCZIVQ-00633-00132848-00133031 agent breaking down and it becomes hard KBCYNyCZIVQ-00634-00133032-00133199 to wet but there's two other things that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00635-00133200-00133343 occur as well KBCYNyCZIVQ-00636-00133344-00133519 so your peach will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00637-00133520-00133735 most likely increase not necessarily KBCYNyCZIVQ-00638-00133736-00133943 anything that's bad it may still stay in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00639-00133944-00134199 the fives even a year or 15 months out KBCYNyCZIVQ-00640-00134200-00134414 but if that mix becomes wet KBCYNyCZIVQ-00641-00134415-00134623 it's possible that ph that makes it go KBCYNyCZIVQ-00642-00134624-00134911 up over six so keep that in mind if that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00643-00134912-00135087 does take place KBCYNyCZIVQ-00644-00135088-00135278 your starter fertilizer also is used up KBCYNyCZIVQ-00645-00135279-00135478 by natural microorganisms that are found KBCYNyCZIVQ-00646-00135479-00135687 in the peat moss or in the bark or in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00647-00135688-00135799 the core KBCYNyCZIVQ-00648-00135800-00136087 or whatever that organic component is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00649-00136088-00136199 um KBCYNyCZIVQ-00650-00136200-00136447 so what you what we start out with when KBCYNyCZIVQ-00651-00136448-00136599 it's manufactured it's not what we end KBCYNyCZIVQ-00652-00136600-00136847 up with at month six or month nine after KBCYNyCZIVQ-00653-00136848-00137087 manufacturing so if your mix is older KBCYNyCZIVQ-00654-00137088-00137319 you might want to shoot it up or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00655-00137320-00137495 shoot it out it doesn't sound right you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00656-00137496-00137599 might want to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00657-00137600-00137831 give it a shot of fertilizer right from KBCYNyCZIVQ-00658-00137832-00138063 right from your first planting time to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00659-00138064-00138190 make sure there's fertilizer in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00660-00138191-00138343 growing medium when that plant is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00661-00138344-00138566 growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00662-00138567-00138823 now once the product is actually in use KBCYNyCZIVQ-00663-00138824-00138975 you've got a crop in it you're actually KBCYNyCZIVQ-00664-00138976-00139135 producing a crop KBCYNyCZIVQ-00665-00139136-00139287 there are things that change the ph of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00666-00139288-00139478 that growing media these things are not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00667-00139479-00139654 necessarily a mystery in our industry KBCYNyCZIVQ-00668-00139655-00139831 anymore but i just want to touch on them KBCYNyCZIVQ-00669-00139832-00139990 real quickly first one is water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00670-00139991-00140254 alkalinity water alkalinity is the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00671-00140255-00140407 measure of the amount of limestone in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00672-00140408-00140623 the water because keep in mind KBCYNyCZIVQ-00673-00140624-00140839 alkalinity measures bicarbonates and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00674-00140840-00141047 carbonates in the water and some other KBCYNyCZIVQ-00675-00141048-00141183 elements as well but that those are the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00676-00141184-00141335 chief ones KBCYNyCZIVQ-00677-00141336-00141551 the carbonates and bicarbonates if you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00678-00141552-00141671 take a look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00679-00141672-00141951 what the chemical uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-00680-00141952-00142095 description of limestone is it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00681-00142096-00142302 actually calcium carbonate KBCYNyCZIVQ-00682-00142303-00142519 and it's a carbonate in the limestone it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00683-00142520-00142663 causes the change in the ph of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00684-00142664-00142926 growing media not the calcium so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00685-00142927-00143111 if we take a look at the amount of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00686-00143112-00143278 carbonates and bicarbonates floating in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00687-00143279-00143487 the water that directly impacts the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00688-00143488-00143711 limestone content water now keep this in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00689-00143712-00143959 mind every time you water with a water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00690-00143960-00144159 that has a high level of bicarbonates KBCYNyCZIVQ-00691-00144160-00144375 and carbonates into it it's like you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00692-00144376-00144671 lying every time you water and the more KBCYNyCZIVQ-00693-00144672-00144847 alkalinity the water has the higher the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00694-00144848-00145063 lime rate is so your ph will climb KBCYNyCZIVQ-00695-00145064-00145175 faster KBCYNyCZIVQ-00696-00145176-00145431 as alkalinity increases KBCYNyCZIVQ-00697-00145432-00145566 so ideally you want to match the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00698-00145567-00145807 fertilizer to the amount of alkalinity KBCYNyCZIVQ-00699-00145808-00145951 in your water you can consult your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00700-00145952-00146126 fertilizer manufacturer to help you with KBCYNyCZIVQ-00701-00146127-00146478 that or if your alkalinity is above 225 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00702-00146479-00146759 250 parts per million calcium carbonate KBCYNyCZIVQ-00703-00146760-00146935 you may want to consider injecting acid KBCYNyCZIVQ-00704-00146936-00147214 bring it down to maybe about 150. KBCYNyCZIVQ-00705-00147215-00147414 now the second factor that influences KBCYNyCZIVQ-00706-00147415-00147566 the peach you're growing media is your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00707-00147567-00147823 fertilizer so fertilizers are labeled KBCYNyCZIVQ-00708-00147824-00147983 either as potentially KBCYNyCZIVQ-00709-00147984-00148159 having potential acidity or potential KBCYNyCZIVQ-00710-00148160-00148343 basicity KBCYNyCZIVQ-00711-00148344-00148566 certainly if it's potentially acidic it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00712-00148567-00148823 will tend to it can i should say drop KBCYNyCZIVQ-00713-00148824-00149271 the growing media ph KBCYNyCZIVQ-00714-00149272-00149543 but not necessarily KBCYNyCZIVQ-00715-00149544-00149735 and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00716-00149736-00149902 let me see here KBCYNyCZIVQ-00717-00149903-00150063 that little message here that i need to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00718-00150064-00150239 get rid of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00719-00150240-00150447 there sorry about that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00720-00150448-00150535 uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-00721-00150536-00150702 with a potentially acidic fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00722-00150703-00150919 keep in mind it can decrease the ph of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00723-00150920-00151078 the growing medium i say can because it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00724-00151079-00151263 depends on the water alkalinity and it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00725-00151264-00151407 also depends a little bit on the crop KBCYNyCZIVQ-00726-00151408-00151614 because they influence it as well if a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00727-00151615-00151823 fertilizer is potentially basic it will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00728-00151824-00151990 almost always cause the ph of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00729-00151991-00152151 growing meat to go up KBCYNyCZIVQ-00730-00152152-00152351 the last variable is the plant so the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00731-00152352-00152495 plant will actually utilize the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00732-00152496-00152687 fertilizer to create the acid or base KBCYNyCZIVQ-00733-00152688-00152926 that changes the ph of the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00734-00152927-00153102 now some plants in our natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-00735-00153103-00153359 environment have adapted very well to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00736-00153360-00153511 really doing a great job of dropping the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00737-00153512-00153654 ph of the growing media and we know KBCYNyCZIVQ-00738-00153655-00153839 these crops geraniums miracles new KBCYNyCZIVQ-00739-00153840-00154047 guinean patients KBCYNyCZIVQ-00740-00154048-00154263 as they use fertilizer they can produce KBCYNyCZIVQ-00741-00154264-00154463 acid very easily KBCYNyCZIVQ-00742-00154464-00154654 on the other side of the fence we have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00743-00154655-00154887 calibracho and petunia which have a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00744-00154888-00154999 tendency KBCYNyCZIVQ-00745-00155000-00155087 to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00746-00155088-00155287 not really drop cage very well because KBCYNyCZIVQ-00747-00155288-00155471 in their native environment the soils KBCYNyCZIVQ-00748-00155472-00155654 are loaded full of iron and manganese KBCYNyCZIVQ-00749-00155655-00155847 and that's why the plants don't have to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00750-00155848-00156071 fight to get it so they actually can KBCYNyCZIVQ-00751-00156072-00156383 increase the ph a little bit more easily KBCYNyCZIVQ-00752-00156384-00157190 because of that reason KBCYNyCZIVQ-00753-00157191-00157559 okay KBCYNyCZIVQ-00754-00157560-00157783 just have a little problem advancing my KBCYNyCZIVQ-00755-00157784-00157911 slide here KBCYNyCZIVQ-00756-00157912-00158111 there we go KBCYNyCZIVQ-00757-00158112-00158207 so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00758-00158208-00158390 in production if the ph of your growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00759-00158391-00158559 media is on the high side what can you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00760-00158560-00158702 do well first of all look at the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00761-00158703-00158935 potential acidity of the fertilizer if KBCYNyCZIVQ-00762-00158936-00159031 you're using something that's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00763-00159032-00159207 potentially basic KBCYNyCZIVQ-00764-00159208-00159454 or has low potential acidity upgrade to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00765-00159455-00159647 a higher potential acidity fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00766-00159648-00159839 such as a 20 10 20. KBCYNyCZIVQ-00767-00159840-00160063 if you really want a real good jolt to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00768-00160064-00160351 your system you can use 2177 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00769-00160352-00160551 don't recommend that too much because KBCYNyCZIVQ-00770-00160552-00160743 it's very acidic KBCYNyCZIVQ-00771-00160744-00160935 if you're going to use that use that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00772-00160936-00161102 during a sunny day KBCYNyCZIVQ-00773-00161103-00161231 other things you can do is you can KBCYNyCZIVQ-00774-00161232-00161454 increase your amount of feed you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00775-00161455-00161623 applying either through constant feeding KBCYNyCZIVQ-00776-00161624-00161814 or using higher fertilizer application KBCYNyCZIVQ-00777-00161815-00162007 rates those work out very well KBCYNyCZIVQ-00778-00162008-00162295 to do that as well if your alkalinity is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00779-00162296-00162495 on the higher side or maybe your ph is KBCYNyCZIVQ-00780-00162496-00162639 just getting away from you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00781-00162640-00162871 acid injection is also a very viable KBCYNyCZIVQ-00782-00162872-00163151 option to bring that alkalinity down you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00783-00163152-00163390 do not want to reduce water ph below 4 KBCYNyCZIVQ-00784-00163391-00163566 because that will damage foliage and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00785-00163567-00163735 also roots that are up at the media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00786-00163736-00163863 surface KBCYNyCZIVQ-00787-00163864-00163983 we don't really recommend the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00788-00163984-00164247 old-fashioned methods of iron sulfate KBCYNyCZIVQ-00789-00164248-00164511 and aluminum sulfate they they're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00790-00164512-00164790 inconsistent they elevate salts and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00791-00164791-00164935 they're not really the best in a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00792-00164936-00165183 soilless mix environment KBCYNyCZIVQ-00793-00165184-00165399 now correcting low-growing media ph if KBCYNyCZIVQ-00794-00165400-00165663 it will go the other way switch to a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00795-00165664-00165847 potentially basic fertilizer like a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00796-00165848-00166054 15015 for instance it will help keep KBCYNyCZIVQ-00797-00166055-00166231 that ph up KBCYNyCZIVQ-00798-00166232-00166438 if you need more of a quick fix or or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00799-00166439-00166702 let's say your ph is just maybe a whole KBCYNyCZIVQ-00800-00166703-00166935 unit off instead of using some kind of a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00801-00166936-00167102 liquid limestone KBCYNyCZIVQ-00802-00167103-00167326 like a catalog or something like that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00803-00167327-00167487 you want to keep that solution in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00804-00167488-00167702 agitation and rinse off the foliage KBCYNyCZIVQ-00805-00167703-00167935 after so there's no re residual on the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00806-00167936-00168078 foliage itself KBCYNyCZIVQ-00807-00168079-00168207 other options using potassium KBCYNyCZIVQ-00808-00168208-00168471 bicarbonate it does rapidly adjust the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00809-00168472-00168695 ph actually quite rapidly but then KBCYNyCZIVQ-00810-00168696-00168902 matter probably less than an hour the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00811-00168903-00169078 only problem is it tends to increase the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00812-00169079-00169238 ec of the growing media quite a bit KBCYNyCZIVQ-00813-00169239-00169366 because there's a lot of potassium in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00814-00169367-00169471 there KBCYNyCZIVQ-00815-00169472-00169614 so in which case you might want to come KBCYNyCZIVQ-00816-00169615-00169799 back and leach with a calming fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00817-00169800-00170014 shortly after application KBCYNyCZIVQ-00818-00170015-00170190 some growers might consider using dry KBCYNyCZIVQ-00819-00170191-00170375 limestone sprinkling on the surface of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00820-00170376-00170559 the growing media it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00821-00170560-00170759 can work it just takes a long time KBCYNyCZIVQ-00822-00170760-00170887 because you got to break that limestone KBCYNyCZIVQ-00823-00170888-00171135 down and it doesn't all break down at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00824-00171136-00171302 the same rate so it's a little bit more KBCYNyCZIVQ-00825-00171303-00171423 unpredictable KBCYNyCZIVQ-00826-00171424-00171654 and the old standby is from years ago KBCYNyCZIVQ-00827-00171655-00172038 the old caustic hydrated lime KBCYNyCZIVQ-00828-00172039-00172254 not a big fan of it because it tends to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00829-00172255-00172414 cause a lot of burn on plants and it's a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00830-00172415-00172678 little unpredictable KBCYNyCZIVQ-00831-00172679-00172799 ec KBCYNyCZIVQ-00832-00172800-00172959 so if you're growing a crop and you see KBCYNyCZIVQ-00833-00172960-00173231 your ec is is changing over time what do KBCYNyCZIVQ-00834-00173232-00173390 you do well first of all we have to keep KBCYNyCZIVQ-00835-00173391-00173599 in mind that we do add and most KBCYNyCZIVQ-00836-00173600-00173743 companies that have started fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00837-00173744-00173911 charge but once that's used up after KBCYNyCZIVQ-00838-00173912-00174095 that first week or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00839-00174096-00174271 if it's a plug mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-00840-00174272-00174519 after that first true leaf stage KBCYNyCZIVQ-00841-00174520-00174751 all the fertilizer then thereafter will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00842-00174752-00174943 be supplied by the grower so you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-00843-00174944-00175119 responsible for putting in what that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00844-00175120-00175238 crop needs KBCYNyCZIVQ-00845-00175239-00175590 now if that ec gets to become too high KBCYNyCZIVQ-00846-00175591-00175790 over time several things to look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00847-00175791-00175999 first of all check your water ec KBCYNyCZIVQ-00848-00176000-00176231 yeah i've seen ecs of water in the two KBCYNyCZIVQ-00849-00176232-00176438 two and a half range which is usually KBCYNyCZIVQ-00850-00176439-00176711 the ideal range for petunia or or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00851-00176712-00176823 geranium KBCYNyCZIVQ-00852-00176824-00177054 but that's just pure water so that could KBCYNyCZIVQ-00853-00177055-00177238 be sodium it could be chloride it could KBCYNyCZIVQ-00854-00177239-00177438 be calcium could be the wrong elements KBCYNyCZIVQ-00855-00177439-00177671 so check that you see your water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00856-00177672-00177883 also check out the individual nutrients KBCYNyCZIVQ-00857-00177884-00178119 sometimes you may have a couple of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00858-00178120-00178271 elements that are accumulating in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00859-00178272-00178447 growing media it could be good maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-00860-00178448-00178671 your water has excess of calcium or high KBCYNyCZIVQ-00861-00178672-00178871 levels of sodium or chloride KBCYNyCZIVQ-00862-00178872-00179078 those are making the ec go up so it may KBCYNyCZIVQ-00863-00179079-00179231 not necessarily be fertilizer that's KBCYNyCZIVQ-00864-00179232-00179423 causing it could be just something going KBCYNyCZIVQ-00865-00179424-00179566 on on the water so it's a good idea to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00866-00179567-00179687 check that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00867-00179688-00179887 uh you want to verify your fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00868-00179888-00180190 concentrate tank is made mixed properly KBCYNyCZIVQ-00869-00180191-00180375 again run through your injector run out KBCYNyCZIVQ-00870-00180376-00180590 the end of the hose check the ec of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00871-00180591-00180695 what's coming out the end of the hose KBCYNyCZIVQ-00872-00180696-00181023 remember to subtract off ec of the water KBCYNyCZIVQ-00873-00181024-00181231 now if everything is correct and KBCYNyCZIVQ-00874-00181232-00181399 everything's mixed properly and your ec KBCYNyCZIVQ-00875-00181400-00181583 is still climbing now you want to look KBCYNyCZIVQ-00876-00181584-00181775 at your fertilizer application rate you KBCYNyCZIVQ-00877-00181776-00181951 want to reduce it KBCYNyCZIVQ-00878-00181952-00182143 i'm not a big fan of just going clear KBCYNyCZIVQ-00879-00182144-00182351 water for multiple times i mean one or KBCYNyCZIVQ-00880-00182352-00182654 two is fine but the problem is is the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00881-00182655-00182831 plant will not use the nutrients all the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00882-00182832-00183054 same ratios are being applied KBCYNyCZIVQ-00883-00183055-00183247 so maybe you've got excessive KBCYNyCZIVQ-00884-00183248-00183414 macronutrients but your micronutrients KBCYNyCZIVQ-00885-00183415-00183638 are getting tapped out it's not all that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00886-00183639-00183807 unusual you can run into a micronutrient KBCYNyCZIVQ-00887-00183808-00183943 deficiency while you're trying to clear KBCYNyCZIVQ-00888-00183944-00184166 up a high salt problem so keep that in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00889-00184167-00184423 mind and last on that list is control KBCYNyCZIVQ-00890-00184424-00184631 these fertilizers if you're mixing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00891-00184632-00184838 control release fertilizers or top KBCYNyCZIVQ-00892-00184839-00185095 dressing with them in your growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00893-00185096-00185278 keep in mind that if you run into a heat KBCYNyCZIVQ-00894-00185279-00185502 wave they tend to dump KBCYNyCZIVQ-00895-00185503-00185647 this particular year we ran into a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00896-00185648-00185807 problem in a lot of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00897-00185808-00185959 shall we say the northeastern part of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00898-00185960-00186175 the united states back in the first week KBCYNyCZIVQ-00899-00186176-00186407 april we saw a lot of locations where KBCYNyCZIVQ-00900-00186408-00186623 highs were in the upper 70s low 80s KBCYNyCZIVQ-00901-00186624-00186711 which KBCYNyCZIVQ-00902-00186712-00186878 for the northern part of the country KBCYNyCZIVQ-00903-00186879-00187038 that's very warm for that early in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00904-00187039-00187135 year KBCYNyCZIVQ-00905-00187136-00187302 well the problem is crops are just KBCYNyCZIVQ-00906-00187303-00187478 planted they're young KBCYNyCZIVQ-00907-00187479-00187607 and then all of a sudden your control KBCYNyCZIVQ-00908-00187608-00187823 lease fertilizer starts to dump at a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00909-00187824-00188150 very high and fast rate again not a not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00910-00188151-00188319 a problem with the product it's not a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00911-00188320-00188614 manufacturing flaw it's just it it did KBCYNyCZIVQ-00912-00188615-00188726 release KBCYNyCZIVQ-00913-00188727-00188935 so you have to watch those rates to make KBCYNyCZIVQ-00914-00188936-00189063 sure they're low enough that if this KBCYNyCZIVQ-00915-00189064-00189287 does happen it doesn't create a problem KBCYNyCZIVQ-00916-00189288-00189454 now on the flip side let's say your ecs KBCYNyCZIVQ-00917-00189455-00189623 become low over time again you want to KBCYNyCZIVQ-00918-00189624-00189799 check to make sure your fertilizer KBCYNyCZIVQ-00919-00189800-00189943 concentrate is mixed properly your KBCYNyCZIVQ-00920-00189944-00190166 injectors working properly again check KBCYNyCZIVQ-00921-00190167-00190414 what's coming out the end of the hose KBCYNyCZIVQ-00922-00190415-00190702 and you want to try to if if it's not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00923-00190703-00190943 coming out at the appropriate amount KBCYNyCZIVQ-00924-00190944-00191166 or if your ec still continues to go low KBCYNyCZIVQ-00925-00191167-00191319 maybe the crops is utilizing the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00926-00191320-00191535 fertilizer faster then you're applying KBCYNyCZIVQ-00927-00191536-00191671 it in which case you want to increase KBCYNyCZIVQ-00928-00191672-00191871 the rate KBCYNyCZIVQ-00929-00191872-00192319 biological properties our last topic KBCYNyCZIVQ-00930-00192320-00192607 so if we take a look at our natural um KBCYNyCZIVQ-00931-00192608-00192783 shall we say organic components we add KBCYNyCZIVQ-00932-00192784-00192983 to the growing media such as peat moss KBCYNyCZIVQ-00933-00192984-00193283 bark core they come with natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-00934-00193284-00193447 microorganisms and these natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-00935-00193448-00193654 microorganisms are generally not KBCYNyCZIVQ-00936-00193655-00193854 pathogenic to the plant but they do KBCYNyCZIVQ-00937-00193855-00194023 provide some minor benefits a lot of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00938-00194024-00194231 times if nothing else they're just KBCYNyCZIVQ-00939-00194232-00194414 simply in the way in the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00940-00194415-00194526 so they will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00941-00194527-00194678 create a growing media environment KBCYNyCZIVQ-00942-00194679-00194831 that's got some competition with KBCYNyCZIVQ-00943-00194832-00195023 pathogens so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00944-00195024-00195159 they're actually not a bad thing to have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00945-00195160-00195295 in there but however they don't do a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00946-00195296-00195431 whole lot for the plant in most KBCYNyCZIVQ-00947-00195432-00195614 situations so KBCYNyCZIVQ-00948-00195615-00195783 if you want to introduce you know KBCYNyCZIVQ-00949-00195784-00195999 biological organisms that benefit crops KBCYNyCZIVQ-00950-00196000-00196254 we then turn to look at the outdoor soil KBCYNyCZIVQ-00951-00196255-00196511 environment where biological diversity KBCYNyCZIVQ-00952-00196512-00196671 is much greater and of course we have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00953-00196672-00196959 greater populations of microorganisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-00954-00196960-00197135 so it's not all that unusual for looking KBCYNyCZIVQ-00955-00197136-00197287 for something to add to the growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-00956-00197288-00197502 media we look to the soil we look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00957-00197503-00197663 various organisms do a lot of research KBCYNyCZIVQ-00958-00197664-00197983 on select out ones that create benefits KBCYNyCZIVQ-00959-00197984-00198190 so that we can now reproduce sort of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00960-00198191-00198399 outdoor environment in the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-00961-00198400-00198838 situation actually in the soil situation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00962-00198839-00199038 a lot of times when we're targeting KBCYNyCZIVQ-00963-00199039-00199238 microorganisms from the soil to put in KBCYNyCZIVQ-00964-00199239-00199423 the soilless media we're looking at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00965-00199424-00199638 microorganisms that help plants deal KBCYNyCZIVQ-00966-00199639-00199766 with stress KBCYNyCZIVQ-00967-00199767-00199847 just KBCYNyCZIVQ-00968-00199848-00200078 a general kind of 30 000 feet look at KBCYNyCZIVQ-00969-00200079-00200238 that situation KBCYNyCZIVQ-00970-00200239-00200366 so as an example we have our growth KBCYNyCZIVQ-00971-00200367-00200583 enhancers which are represented pretty KBCYNyCZIVQ-00972-00200584-00200750 much for the most part by mycorrhizal KBCYNyCZIVQ-00973-00200751-00200999 fungi specifically endomycorrhizal fungi KBCYNyCZIVQ-00974-00201000-00201214 for greenhouse production KBCYNyCZIVQ-00975-00201215-00201407 and the other group usually that we look KBCYNyCZIVQ-00976-00201408-00201614 at would be those that help to reduce KBCYNyCZIVQ-00977-00201615-00201911 root disease which i'll classify as KBCYNyCZIVQ-00978-00201912-00202175 biofungicides as a general term and that KBCYNyCZIVQ-00979-00202176-00202359 would include various types of KBCYNyCZIVQ-00980-00202360-00202631 microorganisms from actinomyces bacteria KBCYNyCZIVQ-00981-00202632-00202783 and fungi KBCYNyCZIVQ-00982-00202784-00203054 so a little bit about mycorrhizae KBCYNyCZIVQ-00983-00203055-00203183 and i want to talk specifically about KBCYNyCZIVQ-00984-00203184-00203343 endomycorrhizae because they're the ones KBCYNyCZIVQ-00985-00203344-00203566 that colonize most your greenhouse crops KBCYNyCZIVQ-00986-00203567-00203831 your your perennials your vegetables KBCYNyCZIVQ-00987-00203832-00204071 herbs those types of crops KBCYNyCZIVQ-00988-00204072-00204287 so essentially you have KBCYNyCZIVQ-00989-00204288-00204654 uh spores or propagules that are in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-00990-00204655-00204879 growing media either through KBCYNyCZIVQ-00991-00204880-00205046 incorporation by the company or maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-00992-00205048-00205375 you've drenched on yourself KBCYNyCZIVQ-00993-00205376-00205551 when those spores or those properties KBCYNyCZIVQ-00994-00205552-00205703 are sitting there they will then KBCYNyCZIVQ-00995-00205704-00205886 germinate or send out high fee which are KBCYNyCZIVQ-00996-00205887-00206103 like threads that'll go in search of a KBCYNyCZIVQ-00997-00206104-00206286 route once they find a route they will KBCYNyCZIVQ-00998-00206287-00206582 grow into the route set up shop KBCYNyCZIVQ-00999-00206583-00206790 and uh it takes about two to four weeks KBCYNyCZIVQ-01000-00206791-00206927 for that to all to take place what would KBCYNyCZIVQ-01001-00206928-00207134 you call colonization then once they set KBCYNyCZIVQ-01002-00207135-00207303 up shop they will grow out beyond the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01003-00207304-00207486 root system to bring in water and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01004-00207487-00207623 nutrients with the plant roots not KBCYNyCZIVQ-01005-00207623-00207782 present i'm going to show you video KBCYNyCZIVQ-01006-00207783-00208023 after this slide it's going to show this KBCYNyCZIVQ-01007-00208023-00208127 this KBCYNyCZIVQ-01008-00208128-00208279 process KBCYNyCZIVQ-01009-00208280-00208503 so the mycorrhizal fungi will help KBCYNyCZIVQ-01010-00208504-00208734 improve acquisition uptake of phosphorus KBCYNyCZIVQ-01011-00208735-00208966 copper manganese zinc and other elements KBCYNyCZIVQ-01012-00208967-00209231 as well as water so as a result of that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01013-00209232-00209406 it will delay the onset of nutrient KBCYNyCZIVQ-01014-00209407-00209558 deficiencies because it can more KBCYNyCZIVQ-01015-00209559-00209719 efficiently mine out the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-01016-00209719-00210015 to bring in the nutrients for the plant KBCYNyCZIVQ-01017-00210016-00210231 mycorrhizal fungi will also reduce the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01018-00210232-00210415 effects of environmental stress on the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01019-00210416-00210694 plant so stress is coming from drought KBCYNyCZIVQ-01020-00210696-00210919 over watering believe it or not KBCYNyCZIVQ-01021-00210919-00211246 nutrient deficiencies also we've seen KBCYNyCZIVQ-01022-00211248-00211382 salts KBCYNyCZIVQ-01023-00211383-00211591 soils are high in salts also benefit KBCYNyCZIVQ-01024-00211592-00211798 from having mycorrhizal fungi and it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01025-00211800-00211991 also helps to take the edge off of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01026-00211992-00212255 extreme heat and also cold KBCYNyCZIVQ-01027-00212256-00212534 extreme cold if you want to say KBCYNyCZIVQ-01028-00212535-00212758 now in return for the benefit that the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01029-00212759-00212982 plant receives the plant will then give KBCYNyCZIVQ-01030-00212983-00213063 back KBCYNyCZIVQ-01031-00213064-00213271 some of its starches and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01032-00213271-00213551 some of its carbohydrates it produces KBCYNyCZIVQ-01033-00213552-00213639 to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01034-00213640-00213855 feed the mycorrhizal fungi so it can KBCYNyCZIVQ-01035-00213856-00213982 continue to grow and continue to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01036-00213983-00214167 colonize the root system KBCYNyCZIVQ-01037-00214167-00214310 and we also find that the plant also KBCYNyCZIVQ-01038-00214311-00214446 does provide some protection for the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01039-00214448-00214710 mycorrhizal fungi from pathogens that do KBCYNyCZIVQ-01040-00214711-00214863 not necessarily attack the plant but KBCYNyCZIVQ-01041-00214864-00215055 will attack the endomycorrhizal fungi KBCYNyCZIVQ-01042-00215056-00215167 itself KBCYNyCZIVQ-01043-00215167-00215382 and since that endomycorrhizal fungi is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01044-00215383-00215551 completely dependent on that plant for KBCYNyCZIVQ-01045-00215552-00215815 its life survival it will benefit the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01046-00215816-00215991 crop throughout the entire as long as KBCYNyCZIVQ-01047-00215992-00216142 that plant's alive KBCYNyCZIVQ-01048-00216144-00216375 that colonization will be taking place KBCYNyCZIVQ-01049-00216376-00216567 so here's a picture of a hyphae that's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01050-00216567-00216823 grown along the outside edge of a root KBCYNyCZIVQ-01051-00216823-00217094 it then will penetrate between the cells KBCYNyCZIVQ-01052-00217096-00217382 of the root of the of the root yes KBCYNyCZIVQ-01053-00217383-00217542 and it'll grow down in and eventually KBCYNyCZIVQ-01054-00217544-00217751 it'll eventually pop in KBCYNyCZIVQ-01055-00217752-00217975 side to cell root push the membrane out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01056-00217976-00218239 of the way and it'll form the structure KBCYNyCZIVQ-01057-00218240-00218446 called an arbuscule which is like a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01058-00218448-00218687 tree-like structure so water nutrients KBCYNyCZIVQ-01059-00218688-00218846 are coming in from the surrounding soil KBCYNyCZIVQ-01060-00218848-00218975 environment and are coming in through KBCYNyCZIVQ-01061-00218976-00219246 these arbuscules to feed the plants the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01062-00219248-00219406 plant in turn KBCYNyCZIVQ-01063-00219407-00219615 will take some of its own carbohydrates KBCYNyCZIVQ-01064-00219616-00219782 and and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01065-00219783-00219975 sugars and it will give it back to the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01066-00219976-00220215 mycorrhizal fungi so it will grow to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01067-00220216-00220351 produce more high feed and more KBCYNyCZIVQ-01068-00220352-00220582 efficiently mine out the growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-01069-00220583-00220767 so we see it's like a highway system on KBCYNyCZIVQ-01070-00220767-00220958 one side water nutrients are coming in KBCYNyCZIVQ-01071-00220959-00221231 from the soil the other side KBCYNyCZIVQ-01072-00221232-00221398 carbohydrates and sugars are going back KBCYNyCZIVQ-01073-00221400-00221527 to the plant KBCYNyCZIVQ-01074-00221528-00221679 i mean going back to the mycorrhizal KBCYNyCZIVQ-01075-00221680-00221934 fungi to feed it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01076-00221935-00222087 moving on to the next category the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01077-00222088-00222287 biofungicide so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01078-00222288-00222567 similarly speaking most biofungicides KBCYNyCZIVQ-01079-00222567-00222910 will grow on the tips of roots because KBCYNyCZIVQ-01080-00222911-00223103 there are sugars and exudates that come KBCYNyCZIVQ-01081-00223104-00223351 off those roots that feed these these KBCYNyCZIVQ-01082-00223352-00223575 biofungicide organisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01083-00223576-00223671 so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01084-00223671-00223871 they love it it's like it's like a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01085-00223871-00224079 buffet for those microorganisms so they KBCYNyCZIVQ-01086-00224080-00224239 will feed on there they will multiply KBCYNyCZIVQ-01087-00224240-00224479 and they will eventually occupy the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01088-00224480-00224742 rhizosphere of the root system KBCYNyCZIVQ-01089-00224744-00224975 now they suppress disease through KBCYNyCZIVQ-01090-00224976-00225167 different modes of action all of them KBCYNyCZIVQ-01091-00225167-00225431 suppress disease through this first one KBCYNyCZIVQ-01092-00225432-00225567 simply by having all these KBCYNyCZIVQ-01093-00225567-00225742 microorganisms growing on the root KBCYNyCZIVQ-01094-00225744-00225927 system they occupy root space they KBCYNyCZIVQ-01095-00225928-00226198 create kind of a physical barrier KBCYNyCZIVQ-01096-00226200-00226406 and then some of these microorganisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01097-00226407-00226598 will produce natural antibodies which KBCYNyCZIVQ-01098-00226600-00226855 will ward off KBCYNyCZIVQ-01099-00226856-00227023 plant pathogens from attacking the plant KBCYNyCZIVQ-01100-00227023-00227303 roots so your bacterial actinomyces will KBCYNyCZIVQ-01101-00227304-00227439 tend to do that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01102-00227440-00227679 your fungal organisms will actually go KBCYNyCZIVQ-01103-00227680-00227871 out and physically attack and actually KBCYNyCZIVQ-01104-00227871-00228158 destroy the plant pathogen by killing it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01105-00228159-00228439 so it's a different form of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01106-00228440-00228703 suppression that it can actually produce KBCYNyCZIVQ-01107-00228704-00228942 now using these biological organisms to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01108-00228944-00229134 help suppress root disease will help to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01109-00229135-00229367 reduce the need for chemical fungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01110-00229367-00229494 trenches KBCYNyCZIVQ-01111-00229496-00229615 most growers KBCYNyCZIVQ-01112-00229616-00229863 will cut their drenches in half or maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-01113-00229864-00230142 by 75 percent but they may still put KBCYNyCZIVQ-01114-00230144-00230287 something on in case something does get KBCYNyCZIVQ-01115-00230288-00230431 a little bit out of control which can KBCYNyCZIVQ-01116-00230432-00230710 happen with a biological additive KBCYNyCZIVQ-01117-00230711-00230903 um so in general with having the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01118-00230904-00231046 biological cell you have a healthier KBCYNyCZIVQ-01119-00231048-00231215 stronger root system because they're not KBCYNyCZIVQ-01120-00231216-00231423 being constantly inundated with attacks KBCYNyCZIVQ-01121-00231423-00231582 from pathogens KBCYNyCZIVQ-01122-00231583-00231742 so you get better use of your KBCYNyCZIVQ-01123-00231744-00231951 fertilization and your watering because KBCYNyCZIVQ-01124-00231952-00232182 they're there to help acquire KBCYNyCZIVQ-01125-00232183-00232358 well again if you have a healthier root KBCYNyCZIVQ-01126-00232359-00232575 system roots can take up the nutrients KBCYNyCZIVQ-01127-00232576-00232806 and it will also translate into improved KBCYNyCZIVQ-01128-00232807-00232942 plant growth KBCYNyCZIVQ-01129-00232944-00233103 so the bottom line is if you can reduce KBCYNyCZIVQ-01130-00233104-00233223 plant loss KBCYNyCZIVQ-01131-00233223-00233446 you can stimulate plant growth because KBCYNyCZIVQ-01132-00233448-00233655 again the roots aren't being KBCYNyCZIVQ-01133-00233656-00233894 chewed away by these microorganisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01134-00233896-00234134 you can overall reduce the cost KBCYNyCZIVQ-01135-00234135-00234279 of producing that crop because you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01136-00234280-00234446 not applying as many chemical fungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01137-00234448-00234655 trenches and you're not seeing as much KBCYNyCZIVQ-01138-00234656-00235119 crop loss or loss of crop quality KBCYNyCZIVQ-01139-00235119-00235279 so here's a picture yes it is kind of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01140-00235280-00235463 moving around so we have a plant root KBCYNyCZIVQ-01141-00235464-00235623 through the middle we see all these kind KBCYNyCZIVQ-01142-00235623-00235703 of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01143-00235704-00235942 grayish blue darker spots KBCYNyCZIVQ-01144-00235944-00236191 those are all bacillus bacterium that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01145-00236192-00236415 are feeding off of the exudates coming KBCYNyCZIVQ-01146-00236416-00236623 off those roots so you can see there's a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01147-00236623-00236879 lot of bacteria there it makes it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01148-00236880-00237071 difficult for a pathogen to grow through KBCYNyCZIVQ-01149-00237071-00237167 that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01150-00237167-00237391 that that crowd to actually get to that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01151-00237392-00237734 root system KBCYNyCZIVQ-01152-00237735-00237982 now here's an example of all the way to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01153-00237983-00238142 the left you see that kind of rounded KBCYNyCZIVQ-01154-00238144-00238319 structure that's a plant root and around KBCYNyCZIVQ-01155-00238319-00238487 that it's kind of like a halo around KBCYNyCZIVQ-01156-00238488-00238591 that that is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01157-00238592-00238846 a bacillus pumless biofungicide bacteria KBCYNyCZIVQ-01158-00238848-00238991 that's grown around the outside KBCYNyCZIVQ-01159-00238992-00239223 perimeter of the root KBCYNyCZIVQ-01160-00239223-00239351 and all the webbing we see in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01161-00239352-00239591 picture that's the hyphae of the glomeru KBCYNyCZIVQ-01162-00239592-00239839 are of the well gloms and orazies of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01163-00239840-00240046 endomycorrhizal fungi KBCYNyCZIVQ-01164-00240048-00240398 now notice that some of those um KBCYNyCZIVQ-01165-00240400-00240606 those hyphae actually are KBCYNyCZIVQ-01166-00240607-00240775 fattened if you want to say you see kind KBCYNyCZIVQ-01167-00240776-00240958 of like this bluish gray haze around KBCYNyCZIVQ-01168-00240959-00241142 them that's not KBCYNyCZIVQ-01169-00241144-00241310 the high feed getting fat that's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01170-00241311-00241494 actually bacillus bacteria that are KBCYNyCZIVQ-01171-00241496-00241598 growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-01172-00241600-00241782 on the outside of the hyphae and the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01173-00241783-00241871 reason why they're growing on the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01174-00241871-00242063 outside of the hyphae is because they're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01175-00242064-00242239 being fed KBCYNyCZIVQ-01176-00242240-00242415 by the hyphae of the mycorrhizae just KBCYNyCZIVQ-01177-00242416-00242679 like the roots so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01178-00242680-00242855 glomus uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01179-00242856-00243198 hyphae actually will will leak exudates KBCYNyCZIVQ-01180-00243200-00243494 and these activates are food again like KBCYNyCZIVQ-01181-00243496-00243775 a feeding trough for various biological KBCYNyCZIVQ-01182-00243776-00243910 organisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01183-00243911-00244175 so uh especially your bacterial strains KBCYNyCZIVQ-01184-00244176-00244327 or maybe some of your actinomyces will KBCYNyCZIVQ-01185-00244328-00244510 actually feed from this KBCYNyCZIVQ-01186-00244511-00244679 and because it's a good food source they KBCYNyCZIVQ-01187-00244680-00244871 will tend to form a strong association KBCYNyCZIVQ-01188-00244871-00245030 with the mycorrhizal fungi because they KBCYNyCZIVQ-01189-00245031-00245239 want to continue to grow and feed from KBCYNyCZIVQ-01190-00245240-00245519 the exudates that leak out of the glomus KBCYNyCZIVQ-01191-00245519-00245839 now if that bacteria that colonizes that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01192-00245840-00246167 mycorrhizal fungi hyphae happens to also KBCYNyCZIVQ-01193-00246167-00246351 be a biofungicide in the case of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01194-00246352-00246615 bacillus fungus that we're talking about KBCYNyCZIVQ-01195-00246616-00246727 they will grow KBCYNyCZIVQ-01196-00246728-00247006 on the outside of that hyphae forming a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01197-00247007-00247167 physical barrier they produce KBCYNyCZIVQ-01198-00247167-00247303 antibiotics so they'll produce a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01199-00247304-00247534 chemical barrier around the hyphae KBCYNyCZIVQ-01200-00247535-00247798 which protects the glomus or the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01201-00247800-00247991 mycorrhizal fungi from attack from KBCYNyCZIVQ-01202-00247992-00248134 pathogens KBCYNyCZIVQ-01203-00248135-00248223 but KBCYNyCZIVQ-01204-00248223-00248415 because we have KBCYNyCZIVQ-01205-00248416-00248575 beneficial bacteria growing not only in KBCYNyCZIVQ-01206-00248576-00248767 the root system of the plant but now on KBCYNyCZIVQ-01207-00248767-00248975 the high fee the mycorrhizae a greater KBCYNyCZIVQ-01208-00248976-00249158 percentage of growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-01209-00249159-00249239 has KBCYNyCZIVQ-01210-00249240-00249510 these bacteria just flourishing KBCYNyCZIVQ-01211-00249511-00249734 and producing antibiotics which further KBCYNyCZIVQ-01212-00249735-00249958 produces more material that suppresses KBCYNyCZIVQ-01213-00249959-00250198 the growth of plant pathogens so it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01214-00250200-00250423 reduces again the need for fungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01215-00250423-00250606 drenches and plant loss KBCYNyCZIVQ-01216-00250607-00250919 but keep in mind not all biofungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01217-00250919-00251239 bacteria will colonize the the basically KBCYNyCZIVQ-01218-00251240-00251423 the hyphae of glomus KBCYNyCZIVQ-01219-00251423-00251575 type uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01220-00251576-00251863 endomycorrhizal fungi so again not all KBCYNyCZIVQ-01221-00251864-00252119 bacteria not all um KBCYNyCZIVQ-01222-00252119-00252239 let me say this again not all KBCYNyCZIVQ-01223-00252240-00252598 biofungicites colonize mycorrhizae KBCYNyCZIVQ-01224-00252600-00252775 so here's an example KBCYNyCZIVQ-01225-00252776-00253079 uh the in both pictures the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01226-00253080-00253303 plants on the left are basically grown KBCYNyCZIVQ-01227-00253304-00253527 without any biological additives the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01228-00253528-00253758 ones on the right contain a biofungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01229-00253759-00253998 and and mycorrhizae KBCYNyCZIVQ-01230-00254000-00254127 and we see that there's a definite KBCYNyCZIVQ-01231-00254128-00254287 growth difference i want to point out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01232-00254288-00254463 these plants are not being fed to their KBCYNyCZIVQ-01233-00254464-00254615 optimal levels so they're kind of a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01234-00254616-00254806 little bit on the hungry side so the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01235-00254807-00254951 ones with no active ingredients are KBCYNyCZIVQ-01236-00254952-00255158 succumbing to the nutrient deficiency KBCYNyCZIVQ-01237-00255159-00255351 starting to yellow up and it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01238-00255352-00255527 keeping their growth rate KBCYNyCZIVQ-01239-00255528-00255655 markedly KBCYNyCZIVQ-01240-00255656-00255791 held back or KBCYNyCZIVQ-01241-00255792-00255894 reduced KBCYNyCZIVQ-01242-00255896-00256071 but the plants on the right on the other KBCYNyCZIVQ-01243-00256071-00256279 hand they've had KBCYNyCZIVQ-01244-00256280-00256471 these biological organisms bring in the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01245-00256471-00256606 water and nutrients or the plant roots KBCYNyCZIVQ-01246-00256607-00256839 aren't present you get the biofungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01247-00256840-00256982 in there to help with a little bit of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01248-00256983-00257142 enhanced nutrient uptake as well but KBCYNyCZIVQ-01249-00257144-00257351 also keeping the root system healthy and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01250-00257352-00257591 clean from plant pathogens so as a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01251-00257592-00257791 result the plants are bigger and a lot KBCYNyCZIVQ-01252-00257792-00258055 less chlorosis now again they're bigger KBCYNyCZIVQ-01253-00258056-00258206 not because they're growing faster than KBCYNyCZIVQ-01254-00258207-00258375 they should they're just simply growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-01255-00258376-00258542 more for optimal rate because there's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01256-00258544-00258767 less stress that's taking place KBCYNyCZIVQ-01257-00258767-00258910 and with that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01258-00258911-00259119 we have reached the end of the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01259-00259119-00259303 presentation KBCYNyCZIVQ-01260-00259304-00259591 and i think chris will take it over from KBCYNyCZIVQ-01261-00259592-00259687 here KBCYNyCZIVQ-01262-00259688-00259958 yeah let me go ahead and uh stop your KBCYNyCZIVQ-01263-00259959-00260119 share although i hate to do that because KBCYNyCZIVQ-01264-00260119-00260367 that was an excellent slideshow KBCYNyCZIVQ-01265-00260367-00260551 great great information KBCYNyCZIVQ-01266-00260552-00260798 troy you've baffled our audience i KBCYNyCZIVQ-01267-00260800-00260967 haven't seen any questions come in and i KBCYNyCZIVQ-01268-00260967-00261119 hope it's not because i forgot to set KBCYNyCZIVQ-01269-00261119-00261303 something properly but i don't i don't KBCYNyCZIVQ-01270-00261304-00261446 think so so if you've got questions KBCYNyCZIVQ-01271-00261448-00261646 now's the time to type them in but i've KBCYNyCZIVQ-01272-00261648-00261798 got i've got a few i'm going to start KBCYNyCZIVQ-01273-00261800-00261934 with one that actually came from one of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01274-00261935-00262142 our viewers and she's on the on the call KBCYNyCZIVQ-01275-00262144-00262319 today or the the the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01276-00262320-00262519 webinar uh karen KBCYNyCZIVQ-01277-00262520-00262879 was asking about microrhizae and um KBCYNyCZIVQ-01278-00262880-00263079 is more better KBCYNyCZIVQ-01279-00263080-00263327 more mycorrhizae and are there different KBCYNyCZIVQ-01280-00263328-00263639 say species of mycorrhizae and the more KBCYNyCZIVQ-01281-00263640-00263806 you have the better or maybe do they KBCYNyCZIVQ-01282-00263807-00263951 compete with one another talk a little KBCYNyCZIVQ-01283-00263952-00264095 bit about that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01284-00264096-00264279 well that's that's a lot of questions KBCYNyCZIVQ-01285-00264280-00264575 there so uh is more better KBCYNyCZIVQ-01286-00264576-00264751 more is better from a standpoint that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01287-00264752-00264975 it's all about location KBCYNyCZIVQ-01288-00264976-00265206 so the closer the mycorrhizal fungi KBCYNyCZIVQ-01289-00265207-00265406 whether it's a spore or propagule is to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01290-00265407-00265543 the actual root the quicker it will KBCYNyCZIVQ-01291-00265544-00265751 colonize the plant roots KBCYNyCZIVQ-01292-00265752-00265991 so more will put them in closer KBCYNyCZIVQ-01293-00265992-00266247 proximity just by simple KBCYNyCZIVQ-01294-00266248-00266375 statistics KBCYNyCZIVQ-01295-00266376-00266527 but more doesn't necessarily mean you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01296-00266528-00266710 colonize more roots it just simply means KBCYNyCZIVQ-01297-00266711-00266887 you're colonizing faster which gives you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01298-00266888-00267063 benefits faster KBCYNyCZIVQ-01299-00267064-00267247 yes there are multiple strains that are KBCYNyCZIVQ-01300-00267248-00267343 out there KBCYNyCZIVQ-01301-00267344-00267503 some strains will work better with some KBCYNyCZIVQ-01302-00267504-00267791 plants and others that is true KBCYNyCZIVQ-01303-00267792-00267991 but we tend to focus on one strain KBCYNyCZIVQ-01304-00267992-00268119 because we look at something that's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01305-00268120-00268343 robust that can survive well in growing KBCYNyCZIVQ-01306-00268344-00268455 media KBCYNyCZIVQ-01307-00268456-00268710 and uh and tends to create the greatest KBCYNyCZIVQ-01308-00268711-00268823 amount of benefit for the greatest KBCYNyCZIVQ-01309-00268824-00269047 number of crops so again are there other KBCYNyCZIVQ-01310-00269048-00269199 species that could be better and more KBCYNyCZIVQ-01311-00269200-00269399 beneficial to some crops yes but not to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01312-00269400-00269630 all okay and your tech is adding that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01313-00269631-00269791 directly into the potting mix that you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01314-00269792-00270047 can buy or is it or is it available as KBCYNyCZIVQ-01315-00270048-00270319 an additive with the biofungicide KBCYNyCZIVQ-01316-00270320-00270399 well KBCYNyCZIVQ-01317-00270400-00270630 we we have it in two flavors so you can KBCYNyCZIVQ-01318-00270631-00270830 buy the mix with the mycorrhizae by KBCYNyCZIVQ-01319-00270831-00270967 itself or with the mycorrhizae and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01320-00270968-00271255 biofungicide include together KBCYNyCZIVQ-01321-00271256-00271423 uh so you can get it that way as far as KBCYNyCZIVQ-01322-00271424-00271623 we do sell mycorrhizae as a standalone KBCYNyCZIVQ-01323-00271624-00271830 item now so you can buy the inoculum you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01324-00271831-00272023 know what we call the connect or in our KBCYNyCZIVQ-01325-00272024-00272263 mic product line right and does that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01326-00272264-00272423 does that you showed it with betting KBCYNyCZIVQ-01327-00272424-00272623 plants so it obviously makes sense on KBCYNyCZIVQ-01328-00272624-00272863 fairly quick turn crops and not just KBCYNyCZIVQ-01329-00272864-00273103 longer term nursery crops what about KBCYNyCZIVQ-01330-00273104-00273343 what about a plug producer KBCYNyCZIVQ-01331-00273344-00273527 well plug producer the thing is with the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01332-00273528-00273734 mycorrhizal fungi is you need a lot of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01333-00273735-00273967 it to get into those small little KBCYNyCZIVQ-01334-00273968-00274191 those little cells so it takes a high KBCYNyCZIVQ-01335-00274192-00274503 concentration so you can do it but it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01336-00274504-00274679 increased costs a little bit but if KBCYNyCZIVQ-01337-00274680-00274919 that's not an issue yeah the earlier you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01338-00274920-00275143 can colonize a plant makes more sense KBCYNyCZIVQ-01339-00275144-00275399 because then more KBCYNyCZIVQ-01340-00275400-00275582 you can transfer that to to the next KBCYNyCZIVQ-01341-00275583-00275791 stage of the plant life cycle but again KBCYNyCZIVQ-01342-00275792-00275927 the benefits like i said it takes about KBCYNyCZIVQ-01343-00275928-00276071 two to four weeks for that colonization KBCYNyCZIVQ-01344-00276072-00276279 to take place so the sooner you can do KBCYNyCZIVQ-01345-00276280-00276487 it the quicker you see benefits all KBCYNyCZIVQ-01346-00276488-00276671 right very interesting do those benefits KBCYNyCZIVQ-01347-00276672-00276958 uh transfer out to the end consumer and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01348-00276959-00277158 her garden KBCYNyCZIVQ-01349-00277159-00277455 yes because the mycorrhizal fungi needs KBCYNyCZIVQ-01350-00277456-00277591 that plant to survive so when you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01351-00277592-00277758 transplant it out into the soil KBCYNyCZIVQ-01352-00277759-00277927 environment and then you have roots that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01353-00277928-00278127 are grown out into the surrounding KBCYNyCZIVQ-01354-00278128-00278375 soil environment the mycorrhizal fungi KBCYNyCZIVQ-01355-00278376-00278710 can grow at 10 times the rate of what KBCYNyCZIVQ-01356-00278711-00278863 plant roots can grow so they'll be out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01357-00278864-00279071 there speeding along they're they're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01358-00279072-00279295 continuing to recolonize those roots i KBCYNyCZIVQ-01359-00279296-00279487 mean they will of course grow out beyond KBCYNyCZIVQ-01360-00279488-00279630 that root system look for other plant KBCYNyCZIVQ-01361-00279631-00279879 roots to colonize yes you will be able KBCYNyCZIVQ-01362-00279880-00280071 to transfer that benefit to your garden KBCYNyCZIVQ-01363-00280072-00280215 very cool so that's a good a good KBCYNyCZIVQ-01364-00280216-00280415 talking point for uh for growers to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01365-00280416-00280582 share with retailers and on down the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01366-00280583-00280799 path now somebody told me one of my KBCYNyCZIVQ-01367-00280800-00281015 colleagues in fact when i told her i had KBCYNyCZIVQ-01368-00281016-00281182 just turned over my garden getting it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01369-00281183-00281391 ready for my spring planting she said KBCYNyCZIVQ-01370-00281392-00281647 don't do that you're you're destroying KBCYNyCZIVQ-01371-00281648-00281887 the natural biome the environment you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01372-00281888-00282119 tearing up all those fibers is that true KBCYNyCZIVQ-01373-00282120-00282358 should i leave it alone and just plant KBCYNyCZIVQ-01374-00282359-00282567 without disturbing the soil KBCYNyCZIVQ-01375-00282568-00282719 yeah that is that is true to some KBCYNyCZIVQ-01376-00282720-00282919 degrees especially your fungal organisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01377-00282920-00283134 so for instance you might have a natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-01378-00283135-00283279 it's usually not a high population KBCYNyCZIVQ-01379-00283280-00283399 you'll have an actual population of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01380-00283400-00283630 mycorrhizal fungi what we find is as KBCYNyCZIVQ-01381-00283631-00283879 soon as you till you destroy the hyphae KBCYNyCZIVQ-01382-00283880-00284030 and a lot of times the tilling equipment KBCYNyCZIVQ-01383-00284031-00284271 will actually smash the spores KBCYNyCZIVQ-01384-00284272-00284510 of the mycorrhizae so spores think of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01385-00284511-00284703 like seeds with plants or spores to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01386-00284704-00284967 mycorrhizae so yeah it causes a lot of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01387-00284968-00285110 damage and it's not just the mycorrhizae KBCYNyCZIVQ-01388-00285111-00285399 but it's also microorganisms too so yeah KBCYNyCZIVQ-01389-00285400-00285623 you can actually reduce the population KBCYNyCZIVQ-01390-00285624-00285847 of microorganisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01391-00285848-00286030 take it easy on my uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01392-00286031-00286182 on my hidden creatures there in my KBCYNyCZIVQ-01393-00286183-00286391 vegetable garden all right debbie wants KBCYNyCZIVQ-01394-00286392-00286647 to know and debbie's from uh from disney KBCYNyCZIVQ-01395-00286648-00286879 cool she wants to know what is a good KBCYNyCZIVQ-01396-00286880-00287239 substitute for long fiber sphagnum moss KBCYNyCZIVQ-01397-00287240-00287567 for growing topiary KBCYNyCZIVQ-01398-00287568-00287719 and i wonder if that's and debbie maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-01399-00287720-00287871 you can weigh in with it with a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01400-00287872-00288143 clarification is that for the topiary KBCYNyCZIVQ-01401-00288144-00288271 form KBCYNyCZIVQ-01402-00288272-00288558 or is it for the mix that the plant is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01403-00288559-00288758 growing in i suspect it's probably for KBCYNyCZIVQ-01404-00288759-00288879 the form because you're putting plants KBCYNyCZIVQ-01405-00288880-00289063 right on those forms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01406-00289064-00289310 yeah that's a good question um yeah the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01407-00289311-00289471 long fiber repeat isn't quite as KBCYNyCZIVQ-01408-00289472-00289606 plentiful out there as it used to be i KBCYNyCZIVQ-01409-00289607-00289806 mean it still exists yes but KBCYNyCZIVQ-01410-00289807-00290023 i think the market demand exceeded the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01411-00290024-00290215 amount that's out there so as far as a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01412-00290216-00290454 substitute and she did clarify it is for KBCYNyCZIVQ-01413-00290455-00290687 the form itself that you see with uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01414-00290688-00290767 with KBCYNyCZIVQ-01415-00290768-00290847 uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01416-00290848-00291079 long fiber sphagnum KBCYNyCZIVQ-01417-00291080-00291310 yeah the only thing i can think of uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01418-00291311-00291447 it's not something i've actually been KBCYNyCZIVQ-01419-00291448-00291575 asked before but it's a good question KBCYNyCZIVQ-01420-00291576-00291839 maybe long fiber core if you can get a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01421-00291840-00292023 longer fibers because you can create KBCYNyCZIVQ-01422-00292024-00292239 basket meshes out of that insert so that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01423-00292240-00292454 might work in in a situation like that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01424-00292455-00292654 we could find it if anyone has done wood KBCYNyCZIVQ-01425-00292655-00292854 used wood fiber or looked into wood KBCYNyCZIVQ-01426-00292855-00293191 fiber as topiary form KBCYNyCZIVQ-01427-00293192-00293367 you know what that's that's a great KBCYNyCZIVQ-01428-00293368-00293558 question i do not know that answer all KBCYNyCZIVQ-01429-00293559-00293703 right i know some of the wood fiber KBCYNyCZIVQ-01430-00293704-00293815 people KBCYNyCZIVQ-01431-00293816-00294110 speaking of which speaking uh i KBCYNyCZIVQ-01432-00294111-00294254 found it interesting when you were KBCYNyCZIVQ-01433-00294255-00294599 describing the different uh um KBCYNyCZIVQ-01434-00294600-00294958 types of soil or mix amendments KBCYNyCZIVQ-01435-00294959-00295127 when you mentioned wood fiber you said KBCYNyCZIVQ-01436-00295128-00295391 it increases water holding capacity and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01437-00295392-00295623 the air air holding capacity at the same KBCYNyCZIVQ-01438-00295624-00295830 time how does that work KBCYNyCZIVQ-01439-00295831-00295910 well KBCYNyCZIVQ-01440-00295911-00296110 it's kind of like peat moss is that that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01441-00296111-00296239 mystery KBCYNyCZIVQ-01442-00296240-00296343 so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01443-00296344-00296534 um the components themselves because KBCYNyCZIVQ-01444-00296535-00296703 they pack loosely together they create KBCYNyCZIVQ-01445-00296704-00296910 bigger pores so you get good air space KBCYNyCZIVQ-01446-00296911-00297158 but also with on on the properties of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01447-00297159-00297351 cells they tend to cling or the water KBCYNyCZIVQ-01448-00297352-00297543 tends to cling to it i mean yeah you can KBCYNyCZIVQ-01449-00297544-00297734 say about any component but KBCYNyCZIVQ-01450-00297735-00297975 where perlite creates a lot of big KBCYNyCZIVQ-01451-00297976-00298199 gaps these tend to create uh smaller KBCYNyCZIVQ-01452-00298200-00298479 gaps so you tend to kind of create a lot KBCYNyCZIVQ-01453-00298480-00298703 more space for water retention KBCYNyCZIVQ-01454-00298704-00298847 it's kind of hard to say but you know KBCYNyCZIVQ-01455-00298848-00298967 also KBCYNyCZIVQ-01456-00298968-00299143 water is retained within the structure KBCYNyCZIVQ-01457-00299144-00299343 of some of these components too that can KBCYNyCZIVQ-01458-00299344-00299558 be released back whereas with perlite or KBCYNyCZIVQ-01459-00299559-00299687 vermiculite KBCYNyCZIVQ-01460-00299688-00299887 well for me that's a bad example or KBCYNyCZIVQ-01461-00299888-00300087 perlite water that actually water KBCYNyCZIVQ-01462-00300088-00300247 doesn't penetrate into the structure KBCYNyCZIVQ-01463-00300248-00300439 right so it can't be released later KBCYNyCZIVQ-01464-00300440-00300663 right right for sure all right we've got KBCYNyCZIVQ-01465-00300664-00300910 a question from aaron who wants to know KBCYNyCZIVQ-01466-00300911-00301130 what recommendations do you have for KBCYNyCZIVQ-01467-00301131-00301406 sanitizing a native soil that will be KBCYNyCZIVQ-01468-00301407-00301734 blended in to a potting mix so that you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01469-00301735-00301934 can kill the pathogens that are in that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01470-00301935-00302134 native soil but not destroy the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01471-00302135-00302423 beneficial organisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01472-00302424-00302654 beneficial yeah if you're if you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01473-00302655-00302775 trying to kill the pathogens you're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01474-00302776-00302887 going to kill the the natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-01475-00302888-00303103 microorganisms too in in the soil that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01476-00303104-00303247 is so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01477-00303248-00303519 um the best thing i still am aware of is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01478-00303520-00303703 is doing the steam sterilization i know KBCYNyCZIVQ-01479-00303704-00303910 it's a pain because you can't do very KBCYNyCZIVQ-01480-00303911-00304215 big batches but it does work fairly well KBCYNyCZIVQ-01481-00304216-00304375 so you have to get that up to i think KBCYNyCZIVQ-01482-00304376-00304606 it's 180 degrees for i'm not sure what KBCYNyCZIVQ-01483-00304607-00304751 the time frame is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01484-00304752-00304967 but the longer you cook it the more you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01485-00304968-00305215 kill and then add those beneficials back KBCYNyCZIVQ-01486-00305216-00305463 in yourself that way you know that your KBCYNyCZIVQ-01487-00305464-00305695 soil doesn't have any of the uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01488-00305696-00305830 the uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01489-00305831-00305999 the bad pathogens KBCYNyCZIVQ-01490-00306000-00306206 to that to that to that effect yeah it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01491-00306207-00306415 was what 75 years ago when the cornell KBCYNyCZIVQ-01492-00306416-00306534 mixes KBCYNyCZIVQ-01493-00306535-00306647 came out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01494-00306648-00306927 and you know is that we're gonna you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01495-00306928-00307103 know it's the modern science right you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01496-00307104-00307263 know modern chemistry KBCYNyCZIVQ-01497-00307264-00307463 and they basically removed all of those KBCYNyCZIVQ-01498-00307464-00307815 natural organisms the beneficials from KBCYNyCZIVQ-01499-00307816-00308158 our container growing uh and it looks KBCYNyCZIVQ-01500-00308159-00308343 like all of the mixed companies KBCYNyCZIVQ-01501-00308344-00308510 certainly premier tech is working hard KBCYNyCZIVQ-01502-00308511-00308639 on bringing KBCYNyCZIVQ-01503-00308640-00308854 that natural chemistry KBCYNyCZIVQ-01504-00308855-00309079 uh that natural biological environment KBCYNyCZIVQ-01505-00309080-00309279 back into the mix KBCYNyCZIVQ-01506-00309280-00309430 that's true but talk a little bit about KBCYNyCZIVQ-01507-00309431-00309543 that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01508-00309544-00309734 yeah so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01509-00309735-00309951 a couple of things to think about um i KBCYNyCZIVQ-01510-00309952-00310054 mentioned there are natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-01511-00310055-00310358 microorganisms that occur in in KBCYNyCZIVQ-01512-00310359-00310623 peat moss and in you know bark and and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01513-00310624-00310799 core and all that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01514-00310800-00310934 we all have experienced that when we KBCYNyCZIVQ-01515-00310935-00311143 open up a bag we see mold growing on the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01516-00311144-00311358 top of the of the mixer on the bark or KBCYNyCZIVQ-01517-00311359-00311487 whatever and that that's natural KBCYNyCZIVQ-01518-00311488-00311639 microorganisms KBCYNyCZIVQ-01519-00311640-00311791 so they're good but they don't really KBCYNyCZIVQ-01520-00311792-00312006 benefit but in the soil environment we KBCYNyCZIVQ-01521-00312007-00312215 have a lot of pathogens in there KBCYNyCZIVQ-01522-00312216-00312439 uh so something is curving those KBCYNyCZIVQ-01523-00312440-00312630 pathogens from creating a problem with KBCYNyCZIVQ-01524-00312631-00312734 the crop KBCYNyCZIVQ-01525-00312735-00312903 so that's why we're going to the soil KBCYNyCZIVQ-01526-00312904-00313047 look for those things to bring them into KBCYNyCZIVQ-01527-00313048-00313247 the soilless mix to try to increase that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01528-00313248-00313382 it's interesting if you take a little KBCYNyCZIVQ-01529-00313383-00313543 bit of soil and you mix it into a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01530-00313544-00313727 soilless mix and you don't sterilize the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01531-00313728-00313839 soil KBCYNyCZIVQ-01532-00313840-00314023 the most aggressive critters take over KBCYNyCZIVQ-01533-00314024-00314182 that soilless mix environment which of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01534-00314183-00314382 course are your pathogens KBCYNyCZIVQ-01535-00314383-00314510 that's why it's so important to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01536-00314511-00314654 sterilize soil if you're going to mix it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01537-00314655-00314863 into a growing media KBCYNyCZIVQ-01538-00314864-00315095 but the reason why companies don't use KBCYNyCZIVQ-01539-00315096-00315319 soil anymore is because between KBCYNyCZIVQ-01540-00315320-00315558 contamination with uh with whatever was KBCYNyCZIVQ-01541-00315559-00315799 dumped onto that field uh just simply KBCYNyCZIVQ-01542-00315800-00316006 the lack of soil out there it just KBCYNyCZIVQ-01543-00316007-00316182 became too difficult to find a good KBCYNyCZIVQ-01544-00316183-00316327 reliable source KBCYNyCZIVQ-01545-00316328-00316558 so that's why soil is when went the way KBCYNyCZIVQ-01546-00316559-00316654 it did KBCYNyCZIVQ-01547-00316655-00316847 sure um KBCYNyCZIVQ-01548-00316848-00317063 debbie from from uh from disney said KBCYNyCZIVQ-01549-00317064-00317182 she's looking she was looking for KBCYNyCZIVQ-01550-00317183-00317415 something friendlier for her topiary KBCYNyCZIVQ-01551-00317416-00317639 forms and that leads to the question of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01552-00317640-00317943 peat availability any stigma with you KBCYNyCZIVQ-01553-00317944-00318167 know it's it's uh uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01554-00318168-00318287 uh KBCYNyCZIVQ-01555-00318288-00318430 doesn't uh what's the word i'm looking KBCYNyCZIVQ-01556-00318431-00318575 for you know it's not a renewable KBCYNyCZIVQ-01557-00318576-00318799 resource and yet it i hear it does kind KBCYNyCZIVQ-01558-00318800-00318991 of renew itself so there's you know KBCYNyCZIVQ-01559-00318992-00319182 mixed information about that talk a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01560-00319183-00319406 little bit about peat availability the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01561-00319407-00319679 future alternatives et cetera KBCYNyCZIVQ-01562-00319680-00319934 yeah so so peat moss there's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01563-00319935-00320215 in now i'm talking canada only so russia KBCYNyCZIVQ-01564-00320216-00320358 is actually has the biggest reserve of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01565-00320359-00320606 peat in the world but canada has 270 KBCYNyCZIVQ-01566-00320607-00320847 million acres of peat moss KBCYNyCZIVQ-01567-00320848-00321095 and of which currently 70 000 acres are KBCYNyCZIVQ-01568-00321096-00321287 being used just for horticultural KBCYNyCZIVQ-01569-00321288-00321487 purposes right say those numbers again KBCYNyCZIVQ-01570-00321488-00321743 so 270 million acres of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01571-00321744-00321934 million and seventy thousand believe KBCYNyCZIVQ-01572-00321935-00322023 that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01573-00322024-00322167 seventy thousand that's being used to KBCYNyCZIVQ-01574-00322168-00322351 produce mixes KBCYNyCZIVQ-01575-00322352-00322575 so if you look at the ratio KBCYNyCZIVQ-01576-00322576-00322782 it's reproducing faster than what we're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01577-00322783-00322958 actually harvesting it now obviously at KBCYNyCZIVQ-01578-00322959-00323182 the harvest site itself we're not seeing KBCYNyCZIVQ-01579-00323183-00323391 a reproduction of that because we KBCYNyCZIVQ-01580-00323392-00323654 we're harvesting from that area and a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01581-00323655-00323943 bog will last anywhere from 30 to maybe KBCYNyCZIVQ-01582-00323944-00324239 60 years in harvest life so it's not KBCYNyCZIVQ-01583-00324240-00324399 like we're going out there and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01584-00324400-00324591 destroying one area and then moving on KBCYNyCZIVQ-01585-00324592-00324799 and moving on moving on uh it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01586-00324800-00324927 basically we're in one area we're in KBCYNyCZIVQ-01587-00324928-00325079 there for quite a while KBCYNyCZIVQ-01588-00325080-00325319 so uh so that takes place the other KBCYNyCZIVQ-01589-00325320-00325430 thing is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01590-00325431-00325654 a lot of companies are now reclaiming KBCYNyCZIVQ-01591-00325655-00325823 the land so they'll actually go in there KBCYNyCZIVQ-01592-00325824-00326015 re-flood the area KBCYNyCZIVQ-01593-00326016-00326182 put straw down put KBCYNyCZIVQ-01594-00326183-00326358 if we open up a new bog we'll take the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01595-00326359-00326519 live moss from that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01596-00326520-00326734 put on with a manure spreader on that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01597-00326735-00327079 area lightly uh kind of lightly KBCYNyCZIVQ-01598-00327080-00327223 submerge it if you want to say and then KBCYNyCZIVQ-01599-00327224-00327454 we'll grow the moss will regrow and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01600-00327455-00327630 usually within five to twelve years that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01601-00327631-00327854 bog will be back to a fully functional KBCYNyCZIVQ-01602-00327855-00327991 ecosystem KBCYNyCZIVQ-01603-00327992-00328199 so it's in our best interest and KBCYNyCZIVQ-01604-00328200-00328351 certainly from canadian government's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01605-00328352-00328567 perspective try to keep those blogs KBCYNyCZIVQ-01606-00328568-00328758 going all right KBCYNyCZIVQ-01607-00328759-00329078 great information uh shorter term though KBCYNyCZIVQ-01608-00329079-00329223 costs of everything have gone up KBCYNyCZIVQ-01609-00329224-00329415 availability is tough you can't get KBCYNyCZIVQ-01610-00329416-00329671 trucks etc what's the what's the outlook KBCYNyCZIVQ-01611-00329672-00329982 for potting mixes for the rest of 21 KBCYNyCZIVQ-01612-00329983-00330287 into 22. maybe it's a salesman question KBCYNyCZIVQ-01613-00330288-00330487 yeah what do you know KBCYNyCZIVQ-01614-00330488-00330743 well i would say this uh you know our KBCYNyCZIVQ-01615-00330744-00331015 sales were up 30 this year and up 25 KBCYNyCZIVQ-01616-00331016-00331191 percent of the year before KBCYNyCZIVQ-01617-00331192-00331271 so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01618-00331272-00331623 to increase by 50 in two years KBCYNyCZIVQ-01619-00331624-00331806 the problem that a lot of companies have KBCYNyCZIVQ-01620-00331807-00331982 ours included is we just don't have the KBCYNyCZIVQ-01621-00331983-00332254 capacity to make everything that we need KBCYNyCZIVQ-01622-00332255-00332495 so what happens is we we put the orders KBCYNyCZIVQ-01623-00332496-00332663 in the system and we we try to produce KBCYNyCZIVQ-01624-00332664-00332943 the best we can but it creates a delay KBCYNyCZIVQ-01625-00332944-00333071 and that's where a lot of the shortages KBCYNyCZIVQ-01626-00333072-00333358 are coming from our delays KBCYNyCZIVQ-01627-00333359-00333663 you know harvest the peat which KBCYNyCZIVQ-01628-00333664-00333975 is all predicated on weather so far so KBCYNyCZIVQ-01629-00333976-00334223 far across our fingers it's been good up KBCYNyCZIVQ-01630-00334224-00334471 to this point so our peat supplies is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01631-00334472-00334695 good uh if we get a lot of rain it's KBCYNyCZIVQ-01632-00334696-00334823 going to reduce the amount we can KBCYNyCZIVQ-01633-00334824-00334999 harvest so that might might have an KBCYNyCZIVQ-01634-00335000-00335151 influence on it KBCYNyCZIVQ-01635-00335152-00335382 so really yes trucking is a little bit KBCYNyCZIVQ-01636-00335383-00335575 limited we run into problems we run out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01637-00335576-00335758 of bags we couldn't get them we run out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01638-00335759-00335951 of perlite we couldn't get that KBCYNyCZIVQ-01639-00335952-00336110 you know there's a lot of a lot of KBCYNyCZIVQ-01640-00336111-00336303 moving parts here that it takes to make KBCYNyCZIVQ-01641-00336304-00336478 a mix and then one is KBCYNyCZIVQ-01642-00336479-00336582 out KBCYNyCZIVQ-01643-00336583-00336791 we can't make mix so that that's also KBCYNyCZIVQ-01644-00336792-00336991 contributed to some of the problems too KBCYNyCZIVQ-01645-00336992-00337158 so to answer your question i think we're KBCYNyCZIVQ-01646-00337159-00337343 still going to have a KBCYNyCZIVQ-01647-00337344-00337463 a supply is going to be a

came during an operation in KOPOVVBAv1o-00313-00076856-00077152 which he died for 8 minutes Jerry KOPOVVBAv1o-00314-00077153-00077386 Armstrong Hubbard's archivist explains

written the book KOPOVVBAv1o-00328-00080377-00080637 Hubbard believed that Excalibur would KOPOVVBAv1o-00329-00080638-00080977 revolutionize everything and that it was KOPOVVBAv1o-00330-00080978-00081181 somewhat more important and would have a KOPOVVBAv1o-00331-00081182-00081391 greater impact upon people than the KOPOVVBAv1o-00332-00081392-00081688 Bible it proposed that all human KOPOVVBAv1o-00333-00081689-00081874 behavior could be explained in terms of KOPOVVBAv1o-00334-00081875-00082081 survival and that to understand survival KOPOVVBAv1o-00335-00082082-00082339 was to understand life as Hubbard KOPOVVBAv1o-00336-00082340-00082591 biographer John adic notes the notion KOPOVVBAv1o-00337-00082592-00082789 that everything that exists is trying to KOPOVVBAv1o-00338-00082790-00083002 survive became the basis of Dianetics KOPOVVBAv1o-00339-00083003-00083196 and Scientology KOPOVVBAv1o-00340-00083197-00083500 according to Burks Hubbard was so sure KOPOVVBAv1o-00341-00083501-00083713 he had something a way out and beyond KOPOVVBAv1o-00342-00083714-00083908 anything else that he had sent telegrams KOPOVVBAv1o-00343-00083909-00084169 to several book publishers telling him KOPOVVBAv1o-00344-00084170-00084337 that he had written the book and that KOPOVVBAv1o-00345-00084338-00084520 they were to meet him at Penn Station KOPOVVBAv1o-00346-00084521-00084706 and he would discuss it with them and go KOPOVVBAv1o-00347-00084707-00084958 with whomever gave him the best offer KOPOVVBAv1o-00348-00084959-00085219 however nobody bought the manuscript KOPOVVBAv1o-00349-00085220-00085459 Forrest J Ackerman later Hubbard's KOPOVVBAv1o-00350-00085460-00085648 literary agent recalled that Hubbard KOPOVVBAv1o-00351-00085649-00085867 told him whoever read it either went KOPOVVBAv1o-00352-00085868-00086164 insane or committed suicide and he said KOPOVVBAv1o-00353-00086165-00086368 that the last time he had shown it to a KOPOVVBAv1o-00354-00086369-00086601 publisher in New York he walked into the KOPOVVBAv1o-00355-00086602-00086824 office to find out what the reaction was KOPOVVBAv1o-00356-00086825-00087037 the publisher called for the reader the KOPOVVBAv1o-00357-00087038-00087262 reader came in with the manuscript threw KOPOVVBAv1o-00358-00087263-00087460 it on the table and threw himself out of KOPOVVBAv1o-00359-00087461-00087787 the skyscraper window Hubbard's failure KOPOVVBAv1o-00360-00087788-00088006 to sell Excalibur depressed him he told KOPOVVBAv1o-00361-00088007-00088215 his wife in an October 1938 KOPOVVBAv1o-00362-00088216-00088465 letter-writing action Pulp doesn't have KOPOVVBAv1o-00363-00088466-00088654 much agreement with what I want to do KOPOVVBAv1o-00364-00088655-00088864 because it retards my progress by KOPOVVBAv1o-00365-00088865-00089059 demanding incessant attention and KOPOVVBAv1o-00366-00089060-00089398 further actually weakens my name so you KOPOVVBAv1o-00367-00089399-00089611 see I've got to do something about it KOPOVVBAv1o-00368-00089612-00089809 and at the same time strengthen the old KOPOVVBAv1o-00369-00089810-00090292 financial position he went on sooner or KOPOVVBAv1o-00370-00090293-00090331 later KOPOVVBAv1o-00371-00090332-00090514 Excalibur will be published and I may KOPOVVBAv1o-00372-00090515-00090649 have a chance to get some name KOPOVVBAv1o-00373-00090650-00090838 recognition out of it so as to pave the KOPOVVBAv1o-00374-00090839-00091015 way to articles and comments which are KOPOVVBAv1o-00375-00091016-00091369 my ideas of writing heaven foolishly KOPOVVBAv1o-00376-00091370-00091588 perhaps but determined nonetheless I KOPOVVBAv1o-00377-00091589-00091789 have high hopes of Smashing my name into KOPOVVBAv1o-00378-00091790-00091987 history so violently that it will take a KOPOVVBAv1o-00379-00091988-00092182 legendary form even if all books are KOPOVVBAv1o-00380-00092183-00092457 destroyed that goal is the real goal as KOPOVVBAv1o-00381-00092458-00092785 far as I am concerned the manuscript KOPOVVBAv1o-00382-00092786-00092971 later became part of Scientology KOPOVVBAv1o-00383-00092972-00093304 mythology an early 1950s Scientology

KRxcqBa5omc-00529-00138138-00138443 but then things got murky KRxcqBa5omc-00530-00138444-00138623 in the early morning hours of the KRxcqBa5omc-00531-00138624-00138947 following Wednesday Thomas eins

KRxcqBa5omc-00535-00139505-00139751 when the news reached the press all KRxcqBa5omc-00536-00139752-00139997 sorts of ugly rumors began to circulate KRxcqBa5omc-00537-00139998-00140357 as well as a hash of conflicting stories KRxcqBa5omc-00538-00140358-00140602 things became so heated that Chester KRxcqBa5omc-00539-00140603-00140819 kemply the district attorney in San KRxcqBa5omc-00540-00140820-00140993 Diego where the yacht had been anchored KRxcqBa5omc-00541-00140994-00141227 for the weekend was forced to open an KRxcqBa5omc-00542-00141228-00141359 investigation KRxcqBa5omc-00543-00141360-00141611 the principles were all strangely absent KRxcqBa5omc-00544-00141612-00141881 at the hearings that followed Hurst KRxcqBa5omc-00545-00141882-00142039 could not be

hearing KRxcqBa5omc-00551-00143262-00143501 in San Diego was a doctor named Goodman KRxcqBa5omc-00552-00143502-00143771 an employee of Hearst KRxcqBa5omc-00553-00143772-00144011 His official version of events which was KRxcqBa5omc-00554-00144012-00144275 printed in Hearst newspapers stated that KRxcqBa5omc-00555-00144276-00144437 after eating and drinking too much at

he later died KRxcqBa5omc-00559-00145232-00145354 [Music] KRxcqBa5omc-00560-00145355-00145649 after the hearing the case was closed KRxcqBa5omc-00561-00145650-00145937 originally D.A kempley had insisted that KRxcqBa5omc-00562-00145938-00146128 he planned to call every single person KRxcqBa5omc-00563-00146129-00146357 who had been on board the yacht to give KRxcqBa5omc-00564-00146358-00146621 their version of events but not only did KRxcqBa5omc-00565-00146622-00146897 he not call any of them he suddenly KRxcqBa5omc-00566-00146898-00147143 after just the one session called off KRxcqBa5omc-00567-00147144-00147425 all further inquiry altogether KRxcqBa5omc-00568-00147426-00147652 he was satisfied that eins's death had KRxcqBa5omc-00569-00147653-00147940 been explained but others were not KRxcqBa5omc-00570-00147941-00148175 satisfied including a number of KRxcqBa5omc-00571-00148176-00148397 newspaper columnists and writers of the KRxcqBa5omc-00572-00148398-00148649 day who demanded that the authorities KRxcqBa5omc-00573-00148650-00148981 look into Ice's suspicious death KRxcqBa5omc-00574-00148982-00149254 one of the strangest facts about the KRxcqBa5omc-00575-00149255-00149501 cruise was that no accurate list of the KRxcqBa5omc-00576-00149502-00149663 guests on board the ship that weekend KRxcqBa5omc-00577-00149664-00149909 has ever been revealed KRxcqBa5omc-00578-00149910-00150125 there were obviously many more people on KRxcqBa5omc-00579-00150126-00150364 board than have ever been reported KRxcqBa5omc-00580-00150365-00150599 several well-known personalities of the KRxcqBa5omc-00581-00150600-00150814 film world have been mentioned as KRxcqBa5omc-00582-00150815-00151090 hearst's guests that weekend but none of KRxcqBa5omc-00583-00151091-00151337 them ever publicly admitted to being on KRxcqBa5omc-00584-00151338-00151469 board the yacht KRxcqBa5omc-00585-00151470-00151666 of course there were many rumors about KRxcqBa5omc-00586-00151667-00151895 who was there just what actually KRxcqBa5omc-00587-00151896-00152159 occurred and what really happened to KRxcqBa5omc-00588-00152160-00152440 cause the death of Thomas eins KRxcqBa5omc-00589-00152441-00152711 perhaps the most exciting rumor to make KRxcqBa5omc-00590-00152712-00152933 the rounds in Hollywood involved the KRxcqBa5omc-00591-00152934-00153113 presence of eins's friend Charlie KRxcqBa5omc-00592-00153114-00153376 Chaplin on board the Oneida for the KRxcqBa5omc-00593-00153377-00153466 party KRxcqBa5omc-00594-00153467-00153695 rumor had it however that chaplain had KRxcqBa5omc-00595-00153696-00153875 not been invited just because he was KRxcqBa5omc-00596-00153876-00154019 eins's pal KRxcqBa5omc-00597-00154020-00154264 EST was insanely jealous of other men's KRxcqBa5omc-00598-00154265-00154511 attention to Marion Davies and his KRxcqBa5omc-00599-00154512-00154678 detectives had recently informed him KRxcqBa5omc-00600-00154679-00154931 that Marion Ann Chaplin had been seen KRxcqBa5omc-00601-00154932-00155135 together during a period of time when he KRxcqBa5omc-00602-00155136-00155297 was out of town KRxcqBa5omc-00603-00155298-00155495 Hearst allegedly invited the comedic KRxcqBa5omc-00604-00155496-00155657 actor on board the Yacht for the weekend KRxcqBa5omc-00605-00155658-00155902 Cruise so that he could observe for KRxcqBa5omc-00606-00155903-00156185 himself how chaplain and Marion behaved KRxcqBa5omc-00607-00156186-00156376 around one another KRxcqBa5omc-00608-00156377-00156616 It is believed that Hearst saw Marion KRxcqBa5omc-00609-00156617-00156869 and chaplain slip off together during KRxcqBa5omc-00610-00156870-00157090 the party and that he discovered them KRxcqBa5omc-00611-00157091-00157373 together on the lower deck a loud KRxcqBa5omc-00612-00157374-00157654 altercation followed and Hearst ran for KRxcqBa5omc-00613-00157655-00157864 his cabin to retrieve a diamond-studded KRxcqBa5omc-00614-00157865-00158152 revolver that he kept on board KRxcqBa5omc-00615-00158153-00158357 Hearst was rumored to be an expert shot KRxcqBa5omc-00616-00158358-00158590 and often amused his guests on the boat KRxcqBa5omc-00617-00158591-00158854 by shooting down seagulls with a single KRxcqBa5omc-00618-00158855-00158957 bullet KRxcqBa5omc-00619-00158958-00159143 in the confusion that followed it was KRxcqBa5omc-00620-00159144-00159364 rumored a shot was fired but it was KRxcqBa5omc-00621-00159365-00159701 Thomas ice not Chaplin who ended up with KRxcqBa5omc-00622-00159702-00159952 a bullet in the head KRxcqBa5omc-00623-00159953-00160204 Z's funeral was held November 21st KRxcqBa5omc-00624-00160205-00160499 attended by his family Marion Davies KRxcqBa5omc-00625-00160500-00160840 chaplain Mary Pickford Douglas Fairbanks KRxcqBa5omc-00626-00160841-00161183 and Harold Lloyd Hurst was noticeably KRxcqBa5omc-00627-00161184-00161321 absent KRxcqBa5omc-00628-00161322-00161585 the body was immediately cremated and an KRxcqBa5omc-00629-00161586-00161902 official inquest was never held KRxcqBa5omc-00630-00161903-00162125 despite the fact that the evidence was KRxcqBa5omc-00631-00162126-00162401 now in ashes Hearst knew he could be in KRxcqBa5omc-00632-00162402-00162652 trouble with the Hollywood Rumor Mill KRxcqBa5omc-00633-00162653-00162881 everyone on board the Oneida was sworn KRxcqBa5omc-00634-00162882-00163126 to secrecy and it wouldn't be wise to KRxcqBa5omc-00635-00163127-00163361 cross Hearst but in spite of this KRxcqBa5omc-00636-00163362-00163607 persistent rumors linked Hearst to KRxcqBa5omc-00637-00163608-00163757 eins's death KRxcqBa5omc-00638-00163758-00164014 no one could resist talking about the KRxcqBa5omc-00639-00164015-00164249 way the hearings into einste's death had KRxcqBa5omc-00640-00164250-00164489 been called off the lack of an official KRxcqBa5omc-00641-00164490-00164711 inquest or the damning story that KRxcqBa5omc-00642-00164712-00164957 Charlie Chaplin's secretary had seen KRxcqBa5omc-00643-00164958-00165173 eins carried off the yacht bleeding from KRxcqBa5omc-00644-00165174-00165437 a bullet wound to the Head KRxcqBa5omc-00645-00165438-00165647 some thought it no coincidence that KRxcqBa5omc-00646-00165648-00165899 famed gossip columnist lubella Parsons KRxcqBa5omc-00647-00165900-00166187 was awarded a lifetime contract with KRxcqBa5omc-00648-00166188-00166487 Hearst soon after the incident since it KRxcqBa5omc-00649-00166488-00166666 was rumored that she had seen everything KRxcqBa5omc-00650-00166667-00166840 that had happened KRxcqBa5omc-00651-00166841-00167111 Luella also felt the need to do a little KRxcqBa5omc-00652-00167112-00167404 covering up of her own and insisted that KRxcqBa5omc-00653-00167405-00167590 she'd been in New York at the time of KRxcqBa5omc-00654-00167591-00167752 Vince's death KRxcqBa5omc-00655-00167753-00167926 the only problem with this story was KRxcqBa5omc-00656-00167927-00168214 that Vera Burnett Marion's stand-in KRxcqBa5omc-00657-00168215-00168437 clearly recalled seeing Luella with KRxcqBa5omc-00658-00168438-00168719 Marion and Davies at the studio ready KRxcqBa5omc-00659-00168720-00168940 for departure on the yacht KRxcqBa5omc-00660-00168941-00169235 Vera valued her job though and decided KRxcqBa5omc-00661-00169236-00169504 not to make a big deal out of it KRxcqBa5omc-00662-00169505-00169751 Marion and Hearst managed to ride out KRxcqBa5omc-00663-00169752-00170039 the Scandal unscathed but as D.W KRxcqBa5omc-00664-00170040-00170302 Griffith remarked in later years all you KRxcqBa5omc-00665-00170303-00170513 have to do to make Hearst turn white as KRxcqBa5omc-00666-00170514-00170825 a ghost is mentioned eins's name there's KRxcqBa5omc-00667-00170826-00171083 plenty wrong there but Hearst is too big KRxcqBa5omc-00668-00171084-00171275 to touch KRxcqBa5omc-00669-00171276-00171521 it was widely known in Hollywood that if KRxcqBa5omc-00670-00171522-00171707 you ever wanted to attend another party KRxcqBa5omc-00671-00171708-00171935 at Marion's beach house or the San KRxcqBa5omc-00672-00171936-00172240 Simeon Castle you didn't mention eins's KRxcqBa5omc-00673-00172241-00172511 name any place where Hearst might hear KRxcqBa5omc-00674-00172512-00172690 you KRxcqBa5omc-00675-00172691-00172901 in the years that followed first KRxcqBa5omc-00676-00172902-00173183 discreetly provided eins's Widow Nell KRxcqBa5omc-00677-00173184-00173440 with a trust fund that was later wiped KRxcqBa5omc-00678-00173441-00173597 out by

us about a week of KRxcqBa5omc-00806-00205865-00206092 hard work to get everything put away but KRxcqBa5omc-00807-00206094-00206242 finally we were sitting in the living KRxcqBa5omc-00808-00206244-00206536 room exhausted but basking in the glory KRxcqBa5omc-00809-00206537-00206764 of our accomplishment when we started KRxcqBa5omc-00810-00206765-00207058 hearing noises coming from a home bar we KRxcqBa5omc-00811-00207059-00207244 had in the living room KRxcqBa5omc-00812-00207246-00207473 this was a wooden bar like you see in KRxcqBa5omc-00813-00207473-00207766 taverns it had three stools wine bottle KRxcqBa5omc-00814-00207767-00208048 racks shelves for wine glasses and KRxcqBa5omc-00815-00208050-00208288 stemware and had drawers in the back for

thing we thought was that KRxcqBa5omc-00822-00209544-00209813 maybe a rat had got in we hadn't seen KRxcqBa5omc-00823-00209814-00209998 any evidence of rodents but at the time KRxcqBa5omc-00824-00210000-00210227 it was the only thing that made sense KRxcqBa5omc-00825-00210228-00210437 Letty got up and was heading towards the KRxcqBa5omc-00826-00210438-00210671 bar when suddenly we heard growling KRxcqBa5omc-00827-00210671-00210875 coming from the storage cabinet KRxcqBa5omc-00828-00210876-00211091 the wine glasses started shaking and KRxcqBa5omc-00829-00211092-00211348 clinking the cabinet doors started KRxcqBa5omc-00830-00211350-00211589 slamming it literally sounded like two KRxcqBa5omc-00831-00211590-00211865 wild animals were fighting in there I KRxcqBa5omc-00832-00211866-00212044 was so terrified I couldn't even get up KRxcqBa5omc-00833-00212046-00212248 and run I stayed there with my heart KRxcqBa5omc-00834-00212250-00212537 pounding listening to my mother pray and KRxcqBa5omc-00835-00212538-00212663 scream KRxcqBa5omc-00836-00212664-00212992 then just as suddenly as it started it KRxcqBa5omc-00837-00212994-00213106 stopped KRxcqBa5omc-00838-00213107-00213341 we were too scared to check KRxcqBa5omc-00839-00213342-00213623 Letty being The Brave One grabbed a KRxcqBa5omc-00840-00213623-00213863 broom and opened both cabinet and drawer KRxcqBa5omc-00841-00213864-00214156 doors nothing came out no animals KRxcqBa5omc-00842-00214157-00214284 nothing KRxcqBa5omc-00843-00214285-00214558 was untouched KRxcqBa5omc-00844-00214559-00214732 we got out of the house and headed for KRxcqBa5omc-00845-00214733-00214889 the nearest church KRxcqBa5omc-00846-00214890-00215063 letting to the priest and was able to KRxcqBa5omc-00847-00215064-00215248 get him to go back with us to bless the KRxcqBa5omc-00848-00215250-00215332 house KRxcqBa5omc-00849-00215333-00215573 my mom and I slept in the same room for KRxcqBa5omc-00850-00215573-00215825 a few nights after that too scared to be KRxcqBa5omc-00851-00215826-00216046 by ourselves KRxcqBa5omc-00852-00216048-00216298 a few weeks later my mom and Letty were KRxcqBa5omc-00853-00216300-00216491 digging in the front yard working on a KRxcqBa5omc-00854-00216492-00216808 flower bed when they came upon some jars KRxcqBa5omc-00855-00216809-00217006 when they pulled them out there was KRxcqBa5omc-00856-00217007-00217265 little ragdolls that had pins stuck to KRxcqBa5omc-00857-00217266-00217444 them and other things that they couldn't KRxcqBa5omc-00858-00217446-00217582 make out KRxcqBa5omc-00859-00217583-00217865 they did not open the jars Letty said KRxcqBa5omc-00860-00217866-00218087 that she knew somebody who would know KRxcqBa5omc-00861-00218088-00218339 how to dispose of them so she took them KRxcqBa5omc-00862-00218340-00218458 with her KRxcqBa5omc-00863-00218459-00218675 the place where they were digging is KRxcqBa5omc-00864-00218676-00218884 directly on the other side of the wall KRxcqBa5omc-00865-00218885-00219106 where the bar is KRxcqBa5omc-00866-00219107-00219292 I don't know if this finding had KRxcqBa5omc-00867-00219294-00219479 anything to do with the incident a few KRxcqBa5omc-00868-00219480-00219694 weeks before but it is a big coincidence KRxcqBa5omc-00869-00219696-00219958 that the noises were coming so close to KRxcqBa5omc-00870-00219959-00220337 where these weird objects were found KRxcqBa5omc-00871-00220338-00220589 everything was quiet for a while nothing KRxcqBa5omc-00872-00220590-00220846 out of the ordinary then we hosted a KRxcqBa5omc-00873-00220848-00221056 party one day I think it was a KRxcqBa5omc-00874-00221057-00221189 housewarming KRxcqBa5omc-00875-00221190-00221417 there were only a few guests left mostly KRxcqBa5omc-00876-00221417-00221698 family it was around 3 A.M some people KRxcqBa5omc-00877-00221700-00221915 were sitting on the bar stools others KRxcqBa5omc-00878-00221916-00222101 were standing around the bar talking and KRxcqBa5omc-00879-00222102-00222394 drinking when suddenly a mirror with the KRxcqBa5omc-00880-00222396-00222613 word bar that was hanging on the wall KRxcqBa5omc-00881-00222614-00222910 shattered it didn't just crack it KRxcqBa5omc-00882-00222911-00223175 shattered well that was an immediate KRxcqBa5omc-00883-00223176-00223396 party pooper because everyone cleared KRxcqBa5omc-00884-00223398-00223631 out of there real fast KRxcqBa5omc-00885-00223632-00223834 one other time my mother was walking KRxcqBa5omc-00886-00223835-00224087 around at night before bed

KRxcqBa5omc-00963-00241428-00241708 Why this color was chosen for newborn KRxcqBa5omc-00964-00241709-00241817 males KRxcqBa5omc-00965-00241817-00242087 we also tend to forget that not so long

customs of blue and pink KRxcqBa5omc-00972-00243683-00243923 as a matter of fact just before the KRxcqBa5omc-00973-00243923-00244187 1920s pink was considered the best color

KRxcqBa5omc-00980-00245519-00245771 the reason is that pink being a more KRxcqBa5omc-00981-00245771-00246010 decided and stronger color is more KRxcqBa5omc-00982-00246011-00246287 suitable for the boy

KTkTF60RiBU-00058-00012838-00013155 be frenemies 5 they aren't considerate KTkTF60RiBU-00059-00013156-00013394 of your feelings sometimes you feel like KTkTF60RiBU-00060-00013396-00013629 you can trust them other times they say KTkTF60RiBU-00061-00013630-00013737 a comment that takes a KTkTF60RiBU-00062-00013738-00013899 about you and it makes you wonder what

apologize if they constantly bring up KTkTF60RiBU-00069-00015181-00015369 the past and only focus on what you've KTkTF60RiBU-00070-00015369-00015563 done wrong then perhaps it's time to KTkTF60RiBU-00071-00015565-00015794 move forward without them friendships KTkTF60RiBU-00072-00015796-00015987 can only sustain if the two of you can KTkTF60RiBU-00073-00015988-00016254 grow together but if they seem to hold KTkTF60RiBU-00074-00016255-00016437 you back and refuse to let go of their KTkTF60RiBU-00075-00016438-00016650 grudges then this will only work against KTkTF60RiBU-00076-00016651-00016835 your friendship instead of supporting it KTkTF60RiBU-00077-00016836-00017127 7 they are controlling and try to KTkTF60RiBU-00078-00017128-00017295 micromanage you rather than give you KTkTF60RiBU-00079-00017296-00017544 advice a good friend is there for you KTkTF60RiBU-00080-00017545-00017736 during the tough times but if your KTkTF60RiBU-00081-00017737-00017907 friend tries to fix you and wants to KTkTF60RiBU-00082-00017908-00018084 make decisions for you instead of giving KTkTF60RiBU-00083-00018085-00018276 you advice then they are treating you KTkTF60RiBU-00084-00018277-00018450 more like a project rather than a friend KTkTF60RiBU-00085-00018451-00018645 even if they're coming from a good place KTkTF60RiBU-00086-00018646-00018870 and only want what's best for you they KTkTF60RiBU-00087-00018871-00019179 can't live your life for you 8 your KTkTF60RiBU-00088-00019180-00019344 friendship provides more stress than KTkTF60RiBU-00089-00019345-00019608 support do you feel overwhelmed KTkTF60RiBU-00090-00019609-00019881 neglected or unhappy if you feel like KTkTF60RiBU-00091-00019882-00020052 you're still testing your friend to see KTkTF60RiBU-00092-00020053-00020244 if you can trust them then chances are KTkTF60RiBU-00093-00020245-00020406 your friendship isn't solidifying KTkTF60RiBU-00094-00020407-00020619 although friendships take work and KTkTF60RiBU-00095-00020620-00020787 effort they shouldn't always be KTkTF60RiBU-00096-00020788-00021024 stressful the whole point of having a KTkTF60RiBU-00097-00021025-00021171 good friend is being able to have fun KTkTF60RiBU-00098-00021172-00021552 together without trying too hard 9 you KTkTF60RiBU-00099-00021553-00021729 frequently catch them talking about you KTkTF60RiBU-00100-00021730-00021984 behind your back it's normal to seek KTkTF60RiBU-00101-00021985-00022125 advice from people outside of your KTkTF60RiBU-00102-00022126-00022329 conflicting relationship and when we're KTkTF60RiBU-00103-00022330-00022551 angry or sad sometimes we might say KTkTF60RiBU-00104-00022552-00022716 things about others that we don't always KTkTF60RiBU-00105-00022717-00022965 mean out of frustration but a toxic KTkTF60RiBU-00106-00022966-00023169 friend may gossip behind your back just KTkTF60RiBU-00107-00023170-00023331 because they find it satisfying or KTkTF60RiBU-00108-00023332-00023556 entertaining if you confront them about KTkTF60RiBU-00109-00023557-00023751 it and they continue to do it this will KTkTF60RiBU-00110-00023752-00024063 only hurt you in the long run 10 you KTkTF60RiBU-00111-00024064-00024240 forget why the two of you became friends KTkTF60RiBU-00112-00024241-00024483 in the first place do you feel like your KTkTF60RiBU-00113-00024484-00024723 friendship is coming to an end it's not KTkTF60RiBU-00114-00024724-00024927 fun losing friends but it's better to KTkTF60RiBU-00115-00024928-00025116 let go move on and find people who KTkTF60RiBU-00116-00025117-00025329 accept you for who you are instead of KTkTF60RiBU-00117-00025330-00025479 putting effort in a friendship that will KTkTF60RiBU-00118-00025480-00025727 never work maybe at one point you guys KTkTF60RiBU-00119-00025729-00025950 really were friends but those days are KTkTF60RiBU-00120-00025951-00026033 long gone KTkTF60RiBU-00121-00026033-00026292 appreciate the memories you made and KTkTF60RiBU-00122-00026293-00026427 make new ones with people who are KTkTF60RiBU-00123-00026427-00026655 willing to be there for you do you KTkTF60RiBU-00124-00026656-00026883

vegetarian diets and KU7Dqt7r2AE-00001-00000537-00000790 Public Health published last year they KU7Dqt7r2AE-00002-00000791-00001106 concluded that sufficient scientific KU7Dqt7r2AE-00003-00001107-00001333 evidence exists for public health policy KU7Dqt7r2AE-00004-00001334-00001553 to promote a plant rich diet for health KU7Dqt7r2AE-00005-00001554-00001817 promotion this does not need to wait for KU7Dqt7r2AE-00006-00001818-00002023 science to provide all the answers as to KU7Dqt7r2AE-00007-00002025-00002513 why and how but this is certainly one KU7Dqt7r2AE-00008-00002514-00002555 reason KU7Dqt7r2AE-00009-00002556-00002900 on average 64 times more antioxidant KU7Dqt7r2AE-00010-00002901-00003112 power and plant foods than animal foods KU7Dqt7r2AE-00011-00003113-00003522 but is this really a fair comparison KU7Dqt7r2AE-00012-00003523-00003785 included in the plant group or some KU7Dqt7r2AE-00013-00003786-00003944 things that were really just off the KU7Dqt7r2AE-00014-00003945-00004235 charts like some exotic wild berries you KU7Dqt7r2AE-00015-00004236-00004363 could never actually find this store KU7Dqt7r2AE-00016-00004364-00004586 that really skewed the chart upwards for KU7Dqt7r2AE-00017-00004587-00004888 the plant foods I mean and people eat KU7Dqt7r2AE-00018-00004889-00005161 things like corn they don't eat things KU7Dqt7r2AE-00019-00005162-00005581 like dried Norwegian corn flowers so KU7Dqt7r2AE-00020-00005582-00005918 let's bring it down to earth the average KU7Dqt7r2AE-00021-00005919-00006118 plant food does indeed have over a KU7Dqt7r2AE-00022-00006119-00006386 thousand and units of antioxidant power KU7Dqt7r2AE-00023-00006387-00006659 but for comparison's sake just to be KU7Dqt7r2AE-00024-00006659-00006845 fair to the animal foods I'm going to KU7Dqt7r2AE-00025-00006845-00007127 choose the least healthy plant food I KU7Dqt7r2AE-00026-00007128-00007495 can think of good old American iceberg KU7Dqt7r2AE-00027-00007497-00007805 lettuce which i think of is basically KU7Dqt7r2AE-00028-00007806-00008309 just water it does not have 1157 units KU7Dqt7r2AE-00029-00008310-00008935 of antioxidant power it has 17 still KU7Dqt7r2AE-00030-00008936-00009259 beats out fish though which averages 11 KU7Dqt7r2AE-00031-00009260-00010295 even salmon 7 chicken 6 iceberg lettuce KU7Dqt7r2AE-00032-00010296-00010521 is nearly three times more antioxidants KU7Dqt7r2AE-00033-00010522-00011088 than chicken a hard-boiled egg too and KU7Dqt7r2AE-00034-00011089-00011488 egg beaters which is just the whites KU7Dqt7r2AE-00035-00011489-00012137 zero even coca-cola has for the same KU7Dqt7r2AE-00036-00012138-00012523 amount found in cow's milk or yogurt KU7Dqt7r2AE-00037-00012524-00012877 though soy milk only has about twice KU7Dqt7r2AE-00038-00012878-00012999 that KU7Dqt7r2AE-00039-00013000-00013376 well plant foods average over a thousand KU7Dqt7r2AE-00040-00013377-00013685 the best animal foods can do in the meat KU7Dqt7r2AE-00041-00013686-00014254 category is a serving of ox liver at 71 KU7Dqt7r2AE-00042-00014255-00014699 it beat out moose meat reindeer steak KU7Dqt7r2AE-00043-00014700-00015005 but still couldn't quite reach the KU7Dqt7r2AE-00044-00015006-00015584 antioxidant power of a Snickers bar this KU7Dqt7r2AE-00045-00015585-00015940 is why we need to eat a plant-based diet KU7Dqt7r2AE-00046-00015941-00016283 because even if you've lived off of ox KU7Dqt7r2AE-00047-00016284-00016577 livers the wild blueberry of the animal KU7Dqt7r2AE-00048-00016578-00016847 kingdom one of the few animal foods that KU7Dqt7r2AE-00049-00016848-00017294 can beat out lettuce you'd still never KU7Dqt7r2AE-00050-00017295-00017624 come close to your daily antioxidant KU7Dqt7r2AE-00051-00017625-00018026 needs there is one animal product KU7Dqt7r2AE-00052-00018027-00018425 however that does kick some serious tush KU7Dqt7r2AE-00053-00018426-00018797 topping 200 there are even some types of KU7Dqt7r2AE-00054-00018798-00019007 berries that didn't test that KU7Dqt7r2AE-00055-00019008-00019325 antioxidant rich an animal products so KU7Dqt7r2AE-00056-00019326-00019688 healthy I have to encourage everyone to KU7Dqt7r2AE-00057-00019689-00019991 consume it when you're a baby KU7Dqt7r2AE-00058-00019992-00020327 that's the antioxidant content of human KU7Dqt7r2AE-00059-00020328-00020696 breast milk during infancy breast is KU7Dqt7r2AE-00060-00020697-00021305 best after infancy plants are prefer KUWA9vNqB24-00000-00000015-00001975 [Music] KUWA9vNqB24-00001-00001976-00002191 in the previous chapters we have seen KUWA9vNqB24-00002-00002192-00002359 that when we take the set of all the KUWA9vNqB24-00003-00002360-00002567 natural numbers take all the possible KUWA9vNqB24-00004-00002568-00002663 subsets of it KUWA9vNqB24-00005-00002664-00002887 and pack them into a new set we get a KUWA9vNqB24-00006-00002888-00003031 set strictly bigger KUWA9vNqB24-00007-00003032-00003231 than the set of all the natural numbers KUWA9vNqB24-00008-00003232-00003375 itself KUWA9vNqB24-00009-00003376-00003590 the set of all the natural numbers is KUWA9vNqB24-00010-00003592-00003831 denoted by the lowercase greek letter KUWA9vNqB24-00011-00003832-00003911 omega KUWA9vNqB24-00012-00003911-00004111 taking the sets of all the possible KUWA9vNqB24-00013-00004112-00004335 subsets is denoted by the calligraphic KUWA9vNqB24-00014-00004336-00004422 lesser pe KUWA9vNqB24-00015-00004423-00004702 which is short for power set so p of KUWA9vNqB24-00016-00004703-00004951 omega is bigger than omega KUWA9vNqB24-00017-00004952-00005159 let's try to construct the set as large KUWA9vNqB24-00018-00005160-00005286 as possible KUWA9vNqB24-00019-00005287-00005527 we have also shown that the power set is KUWA9vNqB24-00020-00005528-00005751 a universal tool for making sets bigger KUWA9vNqB24-00021-00005752-00005799 so KUWA9vNqB24-00022-00005800-00006054 p of p of omega is even bigger than p of KUWA9vNqB24-00023-00006055-00006127 omega KUWA9vNqB24-00024-00006128-00006486 and p of p of p of omega is even bigger KUWA9vNqB24-00025-00006487-00006703 for any natural number n we can KUWA9vNqB24-00026-00006704-00006887 construct a set created KUWA9vNqB24-00027-00006888-00007206 by n iterated applications of p KUWA9vNqB24-00028-00007208-00007527 we can apply it 17 times or even google KUWA9vNqB24-00029-00007528-00007623 times KUWA9vNqB24-00030-00007623-00007927 but is it the best we can achieve of KUWA9vNqB24-00031-00007928-00008142 course not we have infinity KUWA9vNqB24-00032-00008143-00008439 we can take all these sets omega p omega KUWA9vNqB24-00033-00008440-00008542 pp omega KUWA9vNqB24-00034-00008543-00008878 and so on at once and take their union KUWA9vNqB24-00035-00008879-00009110 we can write this formally like this the KUWA9vNqB24-00036-00009111-00009335 union of all the power sets applied i KUWA9vNqB24-00037-00009336-00009446 times to omega KUWA9vNqB24-00038-00009447-00009646 where i goes through all the natural KUWA9vNqB24-00039-00009647-00009806 numbers in short KUWA9vNqB24-00040-00009807-00010127 we will denote the union as u and it is KUWA9vNqB24-00041-00010128-00010183 a set KUWA9vNqB24-00042-00010184-00010383 strictly bigger than all of the previous KUWA9vNqB24-00043-00010384-00010646 ones but we are not finished yet KUWA9vNqB24-00044-00010647-00010831 we can again take the power set and KUWA9vNqB24-00045-00010832-00011038 again and again and so on KUWA9vNqB24-00046-00011039-00011278 and again the union the process KUWA9vNqB24-00047-00011279-00011423 happening here is called KUWA9vNqB24-00048-00011424-00011678 transfinite recursion and it is one of KUWA9vNqB24-00049-00011679-00011919 the key concepts of set theory KUWA9vNqB24-00050-00011920-00012142 an ordinary recursion lives on natural KUWA9vNqB24-00051-00012143-00012359 numbers we define the thing we start KUWA9vNqB24-00052-00012360-00012399 with KUWA9vNqB24-00053-00012400-00012646 in our case omega it is called the base KUWA9vNqB24-00054-00012647-00012727 case KUWA9vNqB24-00055-00012728-00012974 and then we define the recursive step it KUWA9vNqB24-00056-00012975-00013079 is in our case KUWA9vNqB24-00057-00013080-00013343 taking the power set of the previous set KUWA9vNqB24-00058-00013344-00013622 but trans-finance recursion can do more KUWA9vNqB24-00059-00013623-00013847 it can also combine the data collected KUWA9vNqB24-00060-00013847-00013966 in previous steps KUWA9vNqB24-00061-00013968-00014143 even if there is no immediately KUWA9vNqB24-00062-00014144-00014279 preceding step KUWA9vNqB24-00063-00014280-00014527 so there are two types of recursive KUWA9vNqB24-00064-00014528-00014599 steps KUWA9vNqB24-00065-00014600-00014815 the usual one is called the successor KUWA9vNqB24-00066-00014816-00015071 step and the one applied if there is no KUWA9vNqB24-00067-00015072-00015175 previous value KUWA9vNqB24-00068-00015176-00015486 is called the limit step so in our case KUWA9vNqB24-00069-00015487-00015727 the successor step is taking the power KUWA9vNqB24-00070-00015728-00015886 set and the limit step KUWA9vNqB24-00071-00015887-00016191 is the union of all previous values KUWA9vNqB24-00072-00016191-00016479 but the key question here is what is the KUWA9vNqB24-00073-00016480-00016711 thing that transfinite recursion lives KUWA9vNqB24-00074-00016712-00016815 on KUWA9vNqB24-00075-00016816-00017079 the usual recursion is simple it lives KUWA9vNqB24-00076-00017080-00017222 on natural numbers KUWA9vNqB24-00077-00017223-00017535 but what about the trans-finite one in KUWA9vNqB24-00078-00017536-00017686 fact this question is quite KUWA9vNqB24-00079-00017687-00017999 tricky on one hand whenever we begin to KUWA9vNqB24-00080-00018000-00018086 see a pattern KUWA9vNqB24-00081-00018087-00018327 in the transfinite recursion we can take KUWA9vNqB24-00082-00018328-00018407 the limit step KUWA9vNqB24-00083-00018408-00018622 and overcome it on the other hand KUWA9vNqB24-00084-00018623-00018783 transfinite recursion KUWA9vNqB24-00085-00018784-00019047 doesn't work on everything it fails for KUWA9vNqB24-00086-00019048-00019358 example on positive real numbers KUWA9vNqB24-00087-00019359-00019599 so in this chapter and several following KUWA9vNqB24-00088-00019600-00019758 ones we will focus KUWA9vNqB24-00089-00019759-00019991 on the mysterious world of transfinite KUWA9vNqB24-00090-00019992-00020086 recursion KUWA9vNqB24-00091-00020087-00020311 a better understanding of what we can KUWA9vNqB24-00092-00020312-00020422 afford here KUWA9vNqB24-00093-00020423-00020663 will help us to produce the super large KUWA9vNqB24-00094-00020664-00020727 sets KUWA9vNqB24-00095-00020728-00020975 which we wanted at first but we will KUWA9vNqB24-00096-00020976-00021191 find it interesting and useful also in KUWA9vNqB24-00097-00021192-00021311 other ways KUWA9vNqB24-00098-00021312-00021486 let's see why we cannot proceed by KUWA9vNqB24-00099-00021487-00021791 transfinite retention on positive reels KUWA9vNqB24-00100-00021792-00022030 at first we need to start with the base KUWA9vNqB24-00101-00022031-00022135 case somewhere KUWA9vNqB24-00102-00022136-00022335 but for any positive real number no KUWA9vNqB24-00103-00022336-00022447 matter how small KUWA9vNqB24-00104-00022448-00022686 we can find a smaller one that is we KUWA9vNqB24-00105-00022687-00022911 need a minimal element in the set KUWA9vNqB24-00106-00022912-00023127 this is not an issue yet we can fix it KUWA9vNqB24-00107-00023128-00023350 by adding 0 and taking positive rules KUWA9vNqB24-00108-00023351-00023478 with 0. KUWA9vNqB24-00109-00023479-00023703 so we can assign omega to the point 0 on KUWA9vNqB24-00110-00023704-00023847 the real axis now KUWA9vNqB24-00111-00023848-00024158 but what next if we take any other real KUWA9vNqB24-00112-00024159-00024207 number KUWA9vNqB24-00113-00024208-00024478 for p of omega we inevitably skip an KUWA9vNqB24-00114-00024479-00024542 infinite KUWA9vNqB24-00115-00024543-00024783 even uncountable amount of real numbers KUWA9vNqB24-00116-00024784-00025022 between 0 and our chosen number KUWA9vNqB24-00117-00025023-00025255 that is a problem not just that the set KUWA9vNqB24-00118-00025256-00025471 itself has to contain a minimal element KUWA9vNqB24-00119-00025472-00025662 but even every element has to have a KUWA9vNqB24-00120-00025663-00025822 successor in it KUWA9vNqB24-00121-00025823-00026031 this assures us that we can run the KUWA9vNqB24-00122-00026032-00026223 successor step every time KUWA9vNqB24-00123-00026224-00026487 but what about the limit step take the KUWA9vNqB24-00124-00026488-00026543 following KUWA9vNqB24-00125-00026544-00026855 example one infinite increasing sequence KUWA9vNqB24-00126-00026856-00027079 and a two-sided infinite sequence behind KUWA9vNqB24-00127-00027080-00027174 it KUWA9vNqB24-00128-00027175-00027439 the set contains its first element so we KUWA9vNqB24-00129-00027439-00027607 can assign omega KUWA9vNqB24-00130-00027608-00027846 every element here has a successor so we KUWA9vNqB24-00131-00027847-00028046 can run successor steps and get KUWA9vNqB24-00132-00028047-00028462 p omega pp omega and so on but what next KUWA9vNqB24-00133-00028463-00028679 now we should run the limit step but KUWA9vNqB24-00134-00028680-00028846 there is no next bar that can be KUWA9vNqB24-00135-00028847-00028974 assigned to it KUWA9vNqB24-00136-00028975-00029246 again whenever we assign the union to a KUWA9vNqB24-00137-00029247-00029327 bar here KUWA9vNqB24-00138-00029327-00029495 we skip infinitely many previous KUWA9vNqB24-00139-00029495-00029758 elements so it doesn't suffice KUWA9vNqB24-00140-00029760-00029990 that every element has a successor we KUWA9vNqB24-00141-00029991-00030111 need to have a successor KUWA9vNqB24-00142-00030112-00030407 of any initial segment whenever we take KUWA9vNqB24-00143-00030408-00030527 a set of elements KUWA9vNqB24-00144-00030527-00030735 with assigned values from the beginning KUWA9vNqB24-00145-00030736-00031007 there has to be the next element KUWA9vNqB24-00146-00031008-00031167 this condition actually covers the KUWA9vNqB24-00147-00031168-00031407 previous ones we can get the successor KUWA9vNqB24-00148-00031408-00031502 of any element KUWA9vNqB24-00149-00031503-00031662 by finding the successor of the KUWA9vNqB24-00150-00031663-00031870 corresponding initial segment KUWA9vNqB24-00151-00031872-00032079 even the empty set can be considered as KUWA9vNqB24-00152-00032080-00032239 an empty initial segment KUWA9vNqB24-00153-00032239-00032439 so the successor of the empty initial KUWA9vNqB24-00154-00032439-00032695 segment is the first element of the set KUWA9vNqB24-00155-00032695-00032974 so the base case is covered as well KUWA9vNqB24-00156-00032975-00033087 unfortunately KUWA9vNqB24-00157-00033088-00033399 there is a little issue no set can meet KUWA9vNqB24-00158-00033400-00033574 the required condition KUWA9vNqB24-00159-00033575-00033839 the entire set can be always considered KUWA9vNqB24-00160-00033840-00034039 as its own initial segment KUWA9vNqB24-00161-00034040-00034311 and the set cannot contain its successor KUWA9vNqB24-00162-00034312-00034343 as KUWA9vNqB24-00163-00034344-00034535 all its elements are already in the KUWA9vNqB24-00164-00034536-00034687 initial segment KUWA9vNqB24-00165-00034688-00034935 so let's simplify the problem and accept KUWA9vNqB24-00166-00034936-00035039 such a set that KUWA9vNqB24-00167-00035040-00035246 transfinite recursion can run through KUWA9vNqB24-00168-00035247-00035390 all of its elements KUWA9vNqB24-00169-00035391-00035567 even though the set doesn't need to KUWA9vNqB24-00170-00035568-00035711 cover the complete world KUWA9vNqB24-00171-00035712-00035999 of the trans-finance recursion in this KUWA9vNqB24-00172-00036000-00036135 simplification KUWA9vNqB24-00173-00036136-00036374 the last element if there is one doesn't KUWA9vNqB24-00174-00036375-00036574 have to have a successor anymore KUWA9vNqB24-00175-00036575-00036823 the transfinite recursion simply stops KUWA9vNqB24-00176-00036824-00036927 on it KUWA9vNqB24-00177-00036928-00037183 so we require the successors just from KUWA9vNqB24-00178-00037184-00037327 such initial segments KUWA9vNqB24-00179-00037328-00037567 that do not cover everything they are KUWA9vNqB24-00180-00037568-00037855 called the proper initial segments KUWA9vNqB24-00181-00037856-00038118 any set satisfying such a condition is KUWA9vNqB24-00182-00038119-00038167 called KUWA9vNqB24-00183-00038168-00038455 a well-ordered set these are the sets KUWA9vNqB24-00184-00038456-00038767 that transfinite recursion can run over KUWA9vNqB24-00185-00038768-00039030 so if we want to construct a large set KUWA9vNqB24-00186-00039031-00039239 by the transfinite recursion KUWA9vNqB24-00187-00039240-00039518 it suffices to find well ordered set KUWA9vNqB24-00188-00039519-00039662 long enough KUWA9vNqB24-00189-00039663-00039879 in the rest of the chapter we will look KUWA9vNqB24-00190-00039880-00040007 at alternative views KUWA9vNqB24-00191-00040008-00040295 of the condition of well ordering at KUWA9vNqB24-00192-00040296-00040351 first KUWA9vNqB24-00193-00040352-00040527 instead of looking at proper initial KUWA9vNqB24-00194-00040528-00040711 segments it may be useful KUWA9vNqB24-00195-00040712-00040983 to look at their complements there is no KUWA9vNqB24-00196-00040984-00041071 official name KUWA9vNqB24-00197-00041072-00041295 for the opposite of initial segments but KUWA9vNqB24-00198-00041296-00041383 we will call them KUWA9vNqB24-00199-00041384-00041662 terminal segments in this series from KUWA9vNqB24-00200-00041663-00041783 this point of view KUWA9vNqB24-00201-00041784-00042039 a proper initial segment corresponds to KUWA9vNqB24-00202-00042040-00042271 a non-empty terminal segment KUWA9vNqB24-00203-00042272-00042518 a successor of an initial segment KUWA9vNqB24-00204-00042519-00042735 corresponds to the first element of KUWA9vNqB24-00205-00042736-00042918 appropriate terminal segment KUWA9vNqB24-00206-00042919-00043199 so a set is well ordered if and only if KUWA9vNqB24-00207-00043200-00043399 all the non-empty terminal segments have KUWA9vNqB24-00208-00043400-00043574 their first elements KUWA9vNqB24-00209-00043575-00043790 another interesting point of view is to KUWA9vNqB24-00210-00043791-00044007 ask what constraints are set from being KUWA9vNqB24-00211-00044008-00044127 well ordered KUWA9vNqB24-00212-00044128-00044446 in fact the only obstacle is an infinite KUWA9vNqB24-00213-00044447-00044630 decreasing sequence KUWA9vNqB24-00214-00044631-00044871 indeed whenever there is an infinite KUWA9vNqB24-00215-00044872-00044999 decreasing sequence KUWA9vNqB24-00216-00045000-00045230 it divides the set into a proper initial KUWA9vNqB24-00217-00045231-00045302 segment KUWA9vNqB24-00218-00045303-00045543 and a non-empty terminal segment without KUWA9vNqB24-00219-00045544-00045702 the first element covered by the KUWA9vNqB24-00220-00045703-00045815 sequence KUWA9vNqB24-00221-00045816-00045999 there cannot be the first element in the KUWA9vNqB24-00222-00046000-00046230 terminal segment because the sequence KUWA9vNqB24-00223-00046231-00046543 goes backward and backward and KUWA9vNqB24-00224-00046544-00046639 conversely KUWA9vNqB24-00225-00046640-00046846 any non-empty terminal segment without KUWA9vNqB24-00226-00046847-00046983 the first element KUWA9vNqB24-00227-00046984-00047215 contains enough space for an infinite KUWA9vNqB24-00228-00047216-00047367 decreasing sequence KUWA9vNqB24-00229-00047368-00047599 the absence of a first element ensures KUWA9vNqB24-00230-00047600-00047735 that we cannot get stuck KUWA9vNqB24-00231-00047736-00048086 in building the sequence so we have KUWA9vNqB24-00232-00048087-00048286 several ways how to determine whether a KUWA9vNqB24-00233-00048287-00048407 set is well ordered KUWA9vNqB24-00234-00048408-00048574 that is we can run the trans-finite KUWA9vNqB24-00235-00048575-00048727 recursion on it KUWA9vNqB24-00236-00048728-00048927 one way is to investigate all the proper KUWA9vNqB24-00237-00048928-00049030 initial segments KUWA9vNqB24-00238-00049031-00049158 and check whether they have their KUWA9vNqB24-00239-00049159-00049358 successors it is the same as KUWA9vNqB24-00240-00049359-00049455 investigating KUWA9vNqB24-00241-00049456-00049655 all the non-empty terminal segments and KUWA9vNqB24-00242-00049656-00049807 checking whether all of them KUWA9vNqB24-00243-00049808-00050086 have their first elements and a third KUWA9vNqB24-00244-00050087-00050199 option how to check KUWA9vNqB24-00245-00050200-00050399 that the set is well ordered is to KUWA9vNqB24-00246-00050400-00050543 ensure that there is no infinite KUWA9vNqB24-00247-00050544-00050599 decreasing KUWA9vNqB24-00248-00050600-00050927 sequence in it but if you look up the KUWA9vNqB24-00249-00050928-00051183 definition of well ordering by yourself KUWA9vNqB24-00250-00051184-00051430 you will probably find the following one KUWA9vNqB24-00251-00051432-00051607 not just every non-empty terminal KUWA9vNqB24-00252-00051608-00051679 segment KUWA9vNqB24-00253-00051679-00051911 but every possible non-empty subset has KUWA9vNqB24-00254-00051912-00052070 its first element KUWA9vNqB24-00255-00052071-00052287 so you can think about why the meaning KUWA9vNqB24-00256-00052288-00052399 is still the same KUWA9vNqB24-00257-00052400-00052735 it is not so difficult next time we will KUWA9vNqB24-00258-00052736-00052894 meet ordinal numbers KUWA9vNqB24-00259-00052895-00053087 and we will learn how to index elements KUWA9vNqB24-00260-00053088-00053230 of a well-ordered set KUWA9vNqB24-00261-00053232-00053529 using other well-ordered sets see you KUWA9vNqB24-00262-00053529-00053794 [Music] KUWA9vNqB24-00263-00053795-00054095 then KXu8L3K6SMk-00000-00000000-00000191 think

KXu8L3K6SMk-00013-00004784-00004943 tugboat KXu8L3K6SMk-00014-00004944-00005151 so i want him to show us KXu8L3K6SMk-00015-00005152-00005447 how to pull libation the kind of drink KXu8L3K6SMk-00016-00005448-00005718 you need to pull abating and the time KXu8L3K6SMk-00017-00005719-00005991 you need to put libation so i'll just go KXu8L3K6SMk-00018-00005992-00006270 straight to him after him praying KXu8L3K6SMk-00019-00006271-00006550 for everybody or poor deliberation i'll KXu8L3K6SMk-00020-00006551-00006823 ask him one of two questions so that he KXu8L3K6SMk-00021-00006823-00007063 can explain to you how you can pull a KXu8L3K6SMk-00022-00007064-00007359 base in your own house for you to KXu8L3K6SMk-00023-00007359-00007623 connect with your

KXu8L3K6SMk-00026-00008247-00008527 have to remove my topic because KXu8L3K6SMk-00027-00008528-00008767 when you stand there to pray we don't KXu8L3K6SMk-00028-00008768-00009023 wear top or something like that so let KXu8L3K6SMk-00029-00009024-00009295 me remove it before i'll go to talk with KXu8L3K6SMk-00030-00009296-00009655 you for him to pray for us this KXu8L3K6SMk-00031-00009656-00010583

again is it necessary for everyone to do KXu8L3K6SMk-00170-00085383-00085638 that it's necessary because the reason KXu8L3K6SMk-00171-00085639-00085743 is that KXu8L3K6SMk-00172-00085744-00085911 you

water first KXu8L3K6SMk-00176-00086704-00086943 you know water always come in a you know KXu8L3K6SMk-00177-00086944-00087191 situation down okay so KXu8L3K6SMk-00178-00087192-00087335 you give the water to the assistance KXu8L3K6SMk-00179-00087336-00087526 first then you add the drinks KXu8L3K6SMk-00180-00087527-00087726 then afterwards you add the water again KXu8L3K6SMk-00181-00087727-00087943 okay yes for everything to be sealed KXu8L3K6SMk-00182-00087944-00088238 okay yeah so why is it necessary for KXu8L3K6SMk-00183-00088239-00088494 maybe if i wanted to pray i have to use KXu8L3K6SMk-00184-00088495-00088567 uh KXu8L3K6SMk-00185-00088568-00088782 hard drink maybe jean KXu8L3K6SMk-00186-00088783-00088943 sinap or KXu8L3K6SMk-00187-00088944-00089303 spirit why is it necessary for that well KXu8L3K6SMk-00188-00089304-00089535 it's all part of KXu8L3K6SMk-00189-00089536-00089823 the drama what it means is that it KXu8L3K6SMk-00190-00089824-00090031 doesn't mean if you don't have drink KXu8L3K6SMk-00191-00090032-00090182 okay you can you go ahead with your KXu8L3K6SMk-00192-00090183-00090391 water okay and call the asian farmers KXu8L3K6SMk-00193-00090392-00090550 and give them the water okay it doesn't KXu8L3K6SMk-00194-00090551-00090750 mean that necessarily ginger you have to KXu8L3K6SMk-00195-00090751-00091015 get water and you know it is not so once KXu8L3K6SMk-00196-00091016-00091238 you get water alone you can go ahead and KXu8L3K6SMk-00197-00091239-00091462 pour your libation but it's also good if KXu8L3K6SMk-00198-00091463-00091694 you get the the local drink especially KXu8L3K6SMk-00199-00091695-00091903 the local drink it's good yeah or KXu8L3K6SMk-00200-00091904-00092023 alcohol that should

the world the people who are watching KXu8L3K6SMk-00204-00092672-00092943 us maybe i don't have any kind of this KXu8L3K6SMk-00205-00092944-00093182 drink maybe jean or this aquatic thing

in a KXu8L3K6SMk-00290-00112111-00112278 big deal okay it's not anything KXu8L3K6SMk-00291-00112279-00112551 difficult so once you wake up from bed KXu8L3K6SMk-00292-00112552-00112751 you know you can quickly do that and go KXu8L3K6SMk-00293-00112752-00112910 that you know KXu8L3K6SMk-00294-00112911-00113063 as the day break KXu8L3K6SMk-00295-00113064-00113310 we in a state of wooley in a state of KXu8L3K6SMk-00296-00113311-00113623 body okay we you know know little about KXu8L3K6SMk-00297-00113624-00113854 this existence okay so by the people who KXu8L3K6SMk-00298-00113855-00114039 lived here before KXu8L3K6SMk-00299-00114040-00114190 and they left KXu8L3K6SMk-00300-00114191-00114383 they know much about this place they KXu8L3K6SMk-00301-00114383-00114607 have experienced life here and they have KXu8L3K6SMk-00302-00114608-00114815 they have experienced death okay so they KXu8L3K6SMk-00303-00114816-00115078 know what is here and what is in depth KXu8L3K6SMk-00304-00115079-00115263 so that is what we normally call upon KXu8L3K6SMk-00305-00115264-00115495 them that they should show us the way so KXu8L3K6SMk-00306-00115496-00115695 that is the see it's very necessary that KXu8L3K6SMk-00307-00115696-00115871 everybody connect with his or her KXu8L3K6SMk-00308-00115872-00116119 ancestors because KXu8L3K6SMk-00309-00116120-00116271 if you want to pray to your ancestors KXu8L3K6SMk-00310-00116272-00116454 you need that connection okay that KXu8L3K6SMk-00311-00116455-00116695 ancestral connection it is it has to be KXu8L3K6SMk-00312-00116696-00116895 done so that you

live here that we call KXu8L3K6SMk-00324-00119344-00119510 our ancient fathers KXu8L3K6SMk-00325-00119511-00119854 they come and go and come and go so we KXu8L3K6SMk-00326-00119855-00120127 don't refer to them as evil okay they KXu8L3K6SMk-00327-00120128-00120278 are not evil KXu8L3K6SMk-00328-00120279-00120543 not at all they can never be evil today KXu8L3K6SMk-00329-00120544-00120775 you and

KYpS_p5bjQE-00090-00025248-00025547 um and and we made Larry pose for this KYpS_p5bjQE-00091-00025548-00026225 picture KYpS_p5bjQE-00092-00026226-00026590 that guy I know after we made him pause KYpS_p5bjQE-00093-00026591-00026746 for this picture I love it he did not KYpS_p5bjQE-00094-00026747-00026981 want to do it but he did it we had never KYpS_p5bjQE-00095-00026982-00027274 been able to find a use for it so I KYpS_p5bjQE-00096-00027275-00027502 thought today I thought heck we're just KYpS_p5bjQE-00097-00027504-00027677 gonna give it we're gonna choose that KYpS_p5bjQE-00098-00027677-00027917 use that picture today right here right KYpS_p5bjQE-00099-00027918-00028205 now so Larry's inviting you to the NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-00100-00028206-00028457 success 2023 program KYpS_p5bjQE-00101-00028458-00028745 so transformation definitely is possible KYpS_p5bjQE-00102-00028745-00028985 with the right tools and you all have KYpS_p5bjQE-00103-00028986-00029314 already been experiencing that because KYpS_p5bjQE-00104-00029316-00029537 how do I know that well Larry and I both KYpS_p5bjQE-00105-00029538-00029693 know that because of those incredible KYpS_p5bjQE-00106-00029694-00030017 big ahas that you have been posting for KYpS_p5bjQE-00107-00030018-00030364 each of the sessions and uh session one KYpS_p5bjQE-00108-00030366-00030605 was setting an achievable goal and so KYpS_p5bjQE-00109-00030606-00030899 you were looking at things like what a KYpS_p5bjQE-00110-00030900-00031096 lot line them up for me Larry really KYpS_p5bjQE-00111-00031097-00031267 quickly KYpS_p5bjQE-00112-00031268-00031495 yes KYpS_p5bjQE-00113-00031495-00031811 and it's so you have the environment KYpS_p5bjQE-00114-00031812-00032057 uh when you go well first of all the KYpS_p5bjQE-00115-00032058-00032243 achievable goals is is it stated KYpS_p5bjQE-00116-00032244-00032374 positively KYpS_p5bjQE-00117-00032375-00032831 is it uh yeah is it stated positively is KYpS_p5bjQE-00118-00032832-00033083 it in your control to initiate and KYpS_p5bjQE-00119-00033084-00033431 maintain is it measurable uh is it KYpS_p5bjQE-00120-00033432-00033779 ecological that is does it uh create any KYpS_p5bjQE-00121-00033780-00034037 more problems or different problems that KYpS_p5bjQE-00122-00034038-00034246 it solves and finally is it possible KYpS_p5bjQE-00123-00034247-00034529 that's the Escape you have to have those KYpS_p5bjQE-00124-00034530-00034739 things in order to have a really KYpS_p5bjQE-00125-00034740-00035215 achievable goal and then secondly KYpS_p5bjQE-00126-00035216-00035609 we have how do you that's a yeah I think KYpS_p5bjQE-00127-00035610-00035795 that's good that's fantastic yeah and KYpS_p5bjQE-00128-00035796-00036035 secondly how do you get your whole being KYpS_p5bjQE-00129-00036036-00036251 to say yes and I want to talk about KYpS_p5bjQE-00130-00036252-00036455 whole being not just in terms of the KYpS_p5bjQE-00131-00036456-00036599 individual KYpS_p5bjQE-00132-00036600-00036779 but if you happen to be in an KYpS_p5bjQE-00133-00036780-00037007 organization KYpS_p5bjQE-00134-00037008-00037277 and and you need to align to make sure KYpS_p5bjQE-00135-00037278-00037457 that the people in the organization or KYpS_p5bjQE-00136-00037458-00037787 the group is is uh aligned KYpS_p5bjQE-00137-00037788-00038105 uh we're gonna go from uh I think that KYpS_p5bjQE-00138-00038106-00038387 the graphic comes from top down but the KYpS_p5bjQE-00139-00038388-00038668 basic uh thing is the environment you KYpS_p5bjQE-00140-00038669-00038830 have to pay attention to the environment KYpS_p5bjQE-00141-00038831-00039083 uh and how do you respond to the KYpS_p5bjQE-00142-00039084-00039323 environment environment and in order to KYpS_p5bjQE-00143-00039324-00039485 deal with the environment you have to KYpS_p5bjQE-00144-00039486-00039802 decide what specific behaviors are KYpS_p5bjQE-00145-00039803-00040102 appropriate that may mean you need to KYpS_p5bjQE-00146-00040103-00040379 gain some new capabilities do you have KYpS_p5bjQE-00147-00040380-00040552 the capabilities or do you have to get KYpS_p5bjQE-00148-00040553-00040799 them what are your beliefs and values KYpS_p5bjQE-00149-00040800-00041140 about that that goal and and why is it KYpS_p5bjQE-00150-00041141-00041423 important and who are you as an KYpS_p5bjQE-00151-00041424-00041717 individual or as a as an organization KYpS_p5bjQE-00152-00041718-00042071 and that's always a metaphor uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00153-00042072-00042317 something it's not like oh I'm the CEO KYpS_p5bjQE-00154-00042318-00042623 no it's the metaphor for example I had KYpS_p5bjQE-00155-00042624-00042929 one CEO whose metaphor was a mother bird KYpS_p5bjQE-00156-00042930-00043252 but I had another CEO whose metaphor was KYpS_p5bjQE-00157-00043253-00043462 a fountain or a mountain or a water KYpS_p5bjQE-00158-00043463-00043871 stream who is it and then why does that KYpS_p5bjQE-00159-00043872-00044057 for me it was the first time it was an KYpS_p5bjQE-00160-00044058-00044135 eagle KYpS_p5bjQE-00161-00044136-00044429 and why what's the purpose of the eagle KYpS_p5bjQE-00162-00044430-00044596 or what's the purpose of the metaphor KYpS_p5bjQE-00163-00044597-00044896 what does the metaphor provide and uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00164-00044897-00045130 and of course for me at that time and KYpS_p5bjQE-00165-00045131-00045473 that issue was about it was uh it was KYpS_p5bjQE-00166-00045474-00045730 necessary for the Ecology of the whole KYpS_p5bjQE-00167-00045731-00045911 system KYpS_p5bjQE-00168-00045912-00046121 um other people had different kinds of KYpS_p5bjQE-00169-00046122-00046343 metaphors and other different kinds of KYpS_p5bjQE-00170-00046344-00046607 purposes right but I'm going to read I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-00171-00046608-00046793 going to read from Aleister so Alistar KYpS_p5bjQE-00172-00046794-00047021 had a big Aha and I think it's just the KYpS_p5bjQE-00173-00047022-00047315 power of what happens when we align but KYpS_p5bjQE-00174-00047316-00047458 maybe you have a different thought about KYpS_p5bjQE-00175-00047459-00047711 it so here it is I have a long-standing KYpS_p5bjQE-00176-00047712-00047945 project which was very nice to revisit KYpS_p5bjQE-00177-00047946-00048221 using capabilities resources and felt KYpS_p5bjQE-00178-00048222-00048371 some nice shifts so he's talking about KYpS_p5bjQE-00179-00048372-00048623 session one but in session two the KYpS_p5bjQE-00180-00048624-00048905 metaphor massively trumped all that I KYpS_p5bjQE-00181-00048906-00049073 was a little confounded and a little KYpS_p5bjQE-00182-00049074-00049301 delightfully surprised when my mind KYpS_p5bjQE-00183-00049302-00049565 threw up a metaphor that was essentially KYpS_p5bjQE-00184-00049566-00049949 a foreign practice an idea to me it in KYpS_p5bjQE-00185-00049950-00050165 many ways felt like the flip side to me KYpS_p5bjQE-00186-00050166-00050495 that the unexpected one sitting with it KYpS_p5bjQE-00187-00050496-00050717 settled in and powerfully I could feel KYpS_p5bjQE-00188-00050718-00050993 the resolution of the clunky bits in the KYpS_p5bjQE-00189-00050994-00051220 old project and how resources and KYpS_p5bjQE-00190-00051221-00051442 capabilities came together as one simple KYpS_p5bjQE-00191-00051444-00051808 approach what was more bizarre was that KYpS_p5bjQE-00192-00051809-00052354 when I stood up the lymph of the last 40 KYpS_p5bjQE-00193-00052355-00052703 years following ill-advised surgery and KYpS_p5bjQE-00194-00052704-00053171 a really bad outcome was completely gone KYpS_p5bjQE-00195-00053172-00053380 and in spite of now returning to my KYpS_p5bjQE-00196-00053382-00053597 usual Thursday life the powerful Easy KYpS_p5bjQE-00197-00053598-00053866 Feeling is largely stuck around I feel KYpS_p5bjQE-00198-00053867-00054149 optimistic feeling optimistic needs less KYpS_p5bjQE-00199-00054150-00054553 effort it feels more natural metaphor is KYpS_p5bjQE-00200-00054554-00054838 magnificent now Alistar is a filtering KYpS_p5bjQE-00201-00054839-00055066 Christ practitioner and also recently KYpS_p5bjQE-00202-00055067-00055313 retired as a physical therapist so KYpS_p5bjQE-00203-00055314-00055537 that's not a small thing KYpS_p5bjQE-00204-00055538-00055787 and I I'm thinking it's just the KYpS_p5bjQE-00205-00055788-00055966 alignment that happens but maybe Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-00206-00055967-00056171 you think something different well the KYpS_p5bjQE-00207-00056172-00056338 only thing I think I thought about it KYpS_p5bjQE-00208-00056339-00056729 was so in a sense Alice has been limping KYpS_p5bjQE-00209-00056729-00056999 through life and when he got everything KYpS_p5bjQE-00210-00057000-00057226 aligned up he didn't need the limp KYpS_p5bjQE-00211-00057227-00057425 anymore now that's that's my KYpS_p5bjQE-00212-00057426-00057707 hallucination and I will own that but KYpS_p5bjQE-00213-00057708-00057916 that's kind of how I understand what KYpS_p5bjQE-00214-00057917-00058235 those metaphors can actually do when you KYpS_p5bjQE-00215-00058236-00058421 find out the metaphor they can not only KYpS_p5bjQE-00216-00058422-00058619 change the way you think they can change KYpS_p5bjQE-00217-00058620-00059021 who you are how you be so in the world KYpS_p5bjQE-00218-00059022-00059159 thank you KYpS_p5bjQE-00219-00059160-00059404 great thank you so much for that and KYpS_p5bjQE-00220-00059405-00059603 then we had uh actually this was session KYpS_p5bjQE-00221-00059604-00059880 three four thought errors or thought KYpS_p5bjQE-00222-00059882-00060173 viruses that lead to nowhere and I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-00223-00060174-00060365 just going to quickly cover those for us KYpS_p5bjQE-00224-00060366-00060791 so we had this uh mag this idea that is KYpS_p5bjQE-00225-00060791-00060965 pervasive which is making significant KYpS_p5bjQE-00226-00060966-00061211 Life Changes is a long laborious process KYpS_p5bjQE-00227-00061212-00061480 that the NLP approach is to use the KYpS_p5bjQE-00228-00061482-00061685 power the imagination to change the KYpS_p5bjQE-00229-00061686-00061913 internal representation and what was KYpS_p5bjQE-00230-00061914-00062171 stuck is no longer stuck KYpS_p5bjQE-00231-00062172-00062387 then we talked about the second thought KYpS_p5bjQE-00232-00062388-00062621 area was talking about the past leads to KYpS_p5bjQE-00233-00062622-00062921 Solutions uh for the present or the KYpS_p5bjQE-00234-00062922-00063130 future but the inner oops the NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-00235-00063132-00063323 success approaches instead of KYpS_p5bjQE-00236-00063324-00063616 solidifying the trauma or the past KYpS_p5bjQE-00237-00063617-00063880 history scramble it so the brain can't KYpS_p5bjQE-00238-00063882-00064204 associate the bad feeling with it KYpS_p5bjQE-00239-00064205-00064438 number three was someone else holds the KYpS_p5bjQE-00240-00064439-00064691 secret to making my uh life or the KYpS_p5bjQE-00241-00064691-00065009 change that I want and the NLP success KYpS_p5bjQE-00242-00065010-00065237 approach is that the best Solutions come KYpS_p5bjQE-00243-00065238-00065506 within good guidance can help you find KYpS_p5bjQE-00244-00065507-00065626 that KYpS_p5bjQE-00245-00065627-00065963 and then number four was there is one KYpS_p5bjQE-00246-00065964-00066203 and only one way to experience my past KYpS_p5bjQE-00247-00066204-00066467 present our future and the NLP success KYpS_p5bjQE-00248-00066468-00066719 approaches I can perceive my situation KYpS_p5bjQE-00249-00066720-00067013 in a variety of ways KYpS_p5bjQE-00250-00067014-00067361 so in these three sessions we had some KYpS_p5bjQE-00251-00067362-00067721 very super powerful uh experiences I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-00252-00067722-00067871 going to go ahead and KYpS_p5bjQE-00253-00067872-00068219 um read the big a hop that I uh pulled KYpS_p5bjQE-00254-00068220-00068338 out for KYpS_p5bjQE-00255-00068339-00068591 session three which is a little bit KYpS_p5bjQE-00256-00068592-00068813 convoluted but that's exactly how the KYpS_p5bjQE-00257-00068814-00068999 mind works when we're solving these KYpS_p5bjQE-00258-00069000-00069244 problems it isn't like a super linear KYpS_p5bjQE-00259-00069245-00069532 everything makes sense and she's saying KYpS_p5bjQE-00260-00069533-00069713 well it seems like a little all over the KYpS_p5bjQE-00261-00069714-00069929 place for me so Sonia says making KYpS_p5bjQE-00262-00069930-00070205 changes my big ahas making changes in my KYpS_p5bjQE-00263-00070206-00070453 life is not difficult it can be quick KYpS_p5bjQE-00264-00070454-00070769 Booyah this makes me think and say KYpS_p5bjQE-00265-00070770-00071069 Eureka the Eureka moments come to my KYpS_p5bjQE-00266-00071070-00071305 mind but then when I think Eureka Romans KYpS_p5bjQE-00267-00071306-00071632 Eureka moments are not quick but my KYpS_p5bjQE-00268-00071633-00071915 second thought is well maybe there's KYpS_p5bjQE-00269-00071916-00072125 some process before am I still may be in KYpS_p5bjQE-00270-00072126-00072473 a thought virus the key is that Eureka KYpS_p5bjQE-00271-00072474-00072899 comes in the break when I'm relaxed when KYpS_p5bjQE-00272-00072900-00073156 I do something else when I move my body KYpS_p5bjQE-00273-00073157-00073397 most solutions at work I got on the KYpS_p5bjQE-00274-00073398-00073631 bicycle while driving home close KYpS_p5bjQE-00275-00073632-00073799 solutions for work I got on the bicycle KYpS_p5bjQE-00276-00073800-00074056 while driving home so this leads to the KYpS_p5bjQE-00277-00074057-00074279 second point to stop talking KYpS_p5bjQE-00278-00074280-00074561 about the past releasing the past being KYpS_p5bjQE-00279-00074562-00074776 open for Change and the Breakthrough is KYpS_p5bjQE-00280-00074777-00074921 near KYpS_p5bjQE-00281-00074922-00075106 and the breakthroughs it's these big KYpS_p5bjQE-00282-00075107-00075413 things that need to settle in KYpS_p5bjQE-00283-00075414-00075682 wonderful that's fantastic isn't it KYpS_p5bjQE-00284-00075683-00076111 Larry yeah it's it's super I was just so KYpS_p5bjQE-00285-00076112-00076415 amazed and pleased by the responses KYpS_p5bjQE-00286-00076416-00076667 people add to these these three three KYpS_p5bjQE-00287-00076668-00076999 sessions so yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-00288-00077000-00077309 uh I can experience life in many KYpS_p5bjQE-00289-00077310-00077429 different ways KYpS_p5bjQE-00290-00077430-00077747 and uh I don't need this I don't need to KYpS_p5bjQE-00291-00077748-00078000 dwell on the past I love that idea KYpS_p5bjQE-00292-00078001-00078197 what you're doing right now ain't KYpS_p5bjQE-00293-00078198-00078473 working do something else and that's KYpS_p5bjQE-00294-00078474-00078737 basically what he said it's when I take KYpS_p5bjQE-00295-00078738-00078947 the break it's when I quit doing what KYpS_p5bjQE-00296-00078948-00079199 I'm doing and allow something else to KYpS_p5bjQE-00297-00079200-00079307 pop up KYpS_p5bjQE-00298-00079308-00079481 [Music] KYpS_p5bjQE-00299-00079482-00079679 so we're gonna start off telling you KYpS_p5bjQE-00300-00079680-00079894 about NLP success which will start KYpS_p5bjQE-00301-00079895-00080237 February 10th there are four modules and KYpS_p5bjQE-00302-00080238-00080393 we're going to dig into what each of KYpS_p5bjQE-00303-00080394-00080681 these models modules includes so module KYpS_p5bjQE-00304-00080682-00080938 one is information gathering discovering KYpS_p5bjQE-00305-00080939-00081125 what you don't know and then knowing it KYpS_p5bjQE-00306-00081126-00081337 so this is a module that you won Barbara KYpS_p5bjQE-00307-00081338-00081569 and Larry can you tell us a little bit KYpS_p5bjQE-00308-00081570-00081706 about this because there's some awful KYpS_p5bjQE-00309-00081707-00082049 big or there's some big some big words KYpS_p5bjQE-00310-00082050-00082415 here but there's some basic KYpS_p5bjQE-00311-00082416-00082655 we don't talk so much about about KYpS_p5bjQE-00312-00082656-00082949 beliefs being right or wrong we talk KYpS_p5bjQE-00313-00082950-00083237 about things being useful or not useful KYpS_p5bjQE-00314-00083238-00083447 so we have some presuppositions in how KYpS_p5bjQE-00315-00083448-00083615 we relate to each other and how do we KYpS_p5bjQE-00316-00083616-00083988 relate to one another that literally KYpS_p5bjQE-00317-00083989-00084244 transforms the way you interact with KYpS_p5bjQE-00318-00084245-00084497 people then we learn how to get in our KYpS_p5bjQE-00319-00084498-00084881 own zone of Excellence sensory acuity is KYpS_p5bjQE-00320-00084882-00085199 being able to pick up clues that the KYpS_p5bjQE-00321-00085200-00085481 other person or group is sending you KYpS_p5bjQE-00322-00085482-00085853 that is not necessarily cognitive but KYpS_p5bjQE-00323-00085854-00086093 can be picked up there's access and cues KYpS_p5bjQE-00324-00086094-00086488 uh behaviors in the other person that KYpS_p5bjQE-00325-00086489-00086771 tells you uh what's happening what the KYpS_p5bjQE-00326-00086772-00087041 what not the content but the mental KYpS_p5bjQE-00327-00087042-00087305 processing that's taking place we talk KYpS_p5bjQE-00328-00087306-00087479 about active listening if some of you KYpS_p5bjQE-00329-00087480-00087737 have heard about that before and sensory KYpS_p5bjQE-00330-00087738-00087941 based predicates that is learning KYpS_p5bjQE-00331-00087942-00088150 whether a person is auditory visual or KYpS_p5bjQE-00332-00088151-00088343 kinesthetically may have heard those KYpS_p5bjQE-00333-00088344-00088606 terms but some people prefer gathering KYpS_p5bjQE-00334-00088607-00088811 information by what they see in other KYpS_p5bjQE-00335-00088812-00089068 people it's by what they hear or what KYpS_p5bjQE-00336-00089069-00089315 they understand and somebody else is is KYpS_p5bjQE-00337-00089316-00089585 literally they sort of feel their way KYpS_p5bjQE-00338-00089586-00089771 through life and if you want to work KYpS_p5bjQE-00339-00089772-00089926 with them you have to be able to access KYpS_p5bjQE-00340-00089927-00090247 the those kinds of of KYpS_p5bjQE-00341-00090248-00090581 activities representational system is KYpS_p5bjQE-00342-00090582-00090844 how we represent reality our past KYpS_p5bjQE-00343-00090845-00091138 present future internally KYpS_p5bjQE-00344-00091139-00091415 uh then there's the Deep structure KYpS_p5bjQE-00345-00091416-00091697 versus surface structure which means the KYpS_p5bjQE-00346-00091698-00091955 message be beneath the message KYpS_p5bjQE-00347-00091956-00092399 and finally being able to access certain KYpS_p5bjQE-00348-00092400-00092693 kinds of internal States in ourselves or KYpS_p5bjQE-00349-00092694-00092838 in the client KYpS_p5bjQE-00350-00092839-00093155 that are most useful for us at that KYpS_p5bjQE-00351-00093156-00093406 particular time and being able to KYpS_p5bjQE-00352-00093407-00093791 trigger those States uh instantaneously KYpS_p5bjQE-00353-00093792-00094223 so it's a it's a matter of finding just KYpS_p5bjQE-00354-00094224-00094438 learning how to gather information and KYpS_p5bjQE-00355-00094439-00094655 then then you know being able to do KYpS_p5bjQE-00356-00094656-00094805 something with it but first of all we KYpS_p5bjQE-00357-00094806-00095032 have to know what we're seeing know what KYpS_p5bjQE-00358-00095033-00095297 we're hearing and and understand what KYpS_p5bjQE-00359-00095298-00095561 their feeling is right and then we'll be KYpS_p5bjQE-00360-00095562-00095771 moving on to module two which is KYpS_p5bjQE-00361-00095772-00096061 widening the field working with complex KYpS_p5bjQE-00362-00096062-00096455 individual and cultural challenges KYpS_p5bjQE-00363-00096456-00096749 so we talk about these roles and states KYpS_p5bjQE-00364-00096750-00097109 of personal Excellence with the the tote KYpS_p5bjQE-00365-00097110-00097306 model comes out of computer science KYpS_p5bjQE-00366-00097307-00097703 basically means test operate test exit KYpS_p5bjQE-00367-00097704-00097943 we'll talk about that later I mean we'll KYpS_p5bjQE-00368-00097944-00098182 talk more about what that means new KYpS_p5bjQE-00369-00098183-00098350 Behavior generator you want to make a KYpS_p5bjQE-00370-00098351-00098567 change you want to do some new behaviors KYpS_p5bjQE-00371-00098568-00098759 well here's a generator here's how you KYpS_p5bjQE-00372-00098760-00098944 do it we're going to learn how to add KYpS_p5bjQE-00373-00098945-00099293 resources I man if I were just if I just KYpS_p5bjQE-00374-00099294-00099544 had the resource to do such well let's KYpS_p5bjQE-00375-00099545-00099947 find out how ah wonderful change KYpS_p5bjQE-00376-00099948-00100193 personal history boy uh there's a lot of KYpS_p5bjQE-00377-00100194-00100403 us would like to do that and then this KYpS_p5bjQE-00378-00100404-00100823 focus on on the on the brain and it's uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00379-00100824-00101068 you know how how it functions and how we KYpS_p5bjQE-00380-00101069-00101291 uh can KYpS_p5bjQE-00381-00101292-00101632 make best use of what we already have we KYpS_p5bjQE-00382-00101633-00101762 just don't know it so KYpS_p5bjQE-00383-00101763-00101962 [Music] KYpS_p5bjQE-00384-00101963-00102173 three the difference that makes a KYpS_p5bjQE-00385-00102174-00102418 difference learning to run your own KYpS_p5bjQE-00386-00102419-00102689 brain KYpS_p5bjQE-00387-00102690-00103049 these are all what you see here visual KYpS_p5bjQE-00388-00103050-00103223 squash switch patterns perceptual KYpS_p5bjQE-00389-00103224-00103558 positions these are some of these are KYpS_p5bjQE-00390-00103559-00103906 the processes techniques perceptual KYpS_p5bjQE-00391-00103907-00104056 positions is something that we've KYpS_p5bjQE-00392-00104057-00104278 already talked about is has to do with KYpS_p5bjQE-00393-00104279-00104465 how do I perceive the world and could I KYpS_p5bjQE-00394-00104466-00104677 perceive it from a different perspective KYpS_p5bjQE-00395-00104678-00104921 uh you've already been introduced to KYpS_p5bjQE-00396-00104922-00105221 well-formed outcomes uh we'll get into KYpS_p5bjQE-00397-00105222-00105454 Altered States Of Consciousness we're in KYpS_p5bjQE-00398-00105455-00105647 the Altered States Of Consciousness all KYpS_p5bjQE-00399-00105648-00105899 the time and by the way you just need to KYpS_p5bjQE-00400-00105900-00106049 know if you're a professional and you KYpS_p5bjQE-00401-00106050-00106204 have a client who comes in with the KYpS_p5bjQE-00402-00106205-00106469 problem they are already in an altered KYpS_p5bjQE-00403-00106470-00106769 state that's not the way they want to KYpS_p5bjQE-00404-00106770-00106954 walk around in the world with this KYpS_p5bjQE-00405-00106955-00107201 problem that's nagging them VK KYpS_p5bjQE-00406-00107202-00107536 disassociation and is another way of KYpS_p5bjQE-00407-00107538-00107783 talking about the phobia cure which now KYpS_p5bjQE-00408-00107783-00108113 and much a large part of the world is KYpS_p5bjQE-00409-00108114-00108533 the go-to method for dealing with PTSD KYpS_p5bjQE-00410-00108533-00108851 Framing and reframing that is how we KYpS_p5bjQE-00411-00108852-00109013 frame what's happening and can we do KYpS_p5bjQE-00412-00109014-00109354 that these are certain strategies and KYpS_p5bjQE-00413-00109355-00109715 and roll models that we use and we've KYpS_p5bjQE-00414-00109716-00109936 already talked to some extent you've KYpS_p5bjQE-00415-00109938-00110128 been introduced to logical levels of KYpS_p5bjQE-00416-00110129-00110357 change KYpS_p5bjQE-00417-00110358-00110704 and then the last one module four KYpS_p5bjQE-00418-00110705-00110957 yeah and KYpS_p5bjQE-00419-00110958-00111173 to run your own brain KYpS_p5bjQE-00420-00111174-00111533 yeah so we're going to use a different KYpS_p5bjQE-00421-00111533-00112019 set of Mind mind frames mindsets we're KYpS_p5bjQE-00422-00112020-00112278 going to talk about using timelines KYpS_p5bjQE-00423-00112279-00112565 these are the soar model and the score KYpS_p5bjQE-00424-00112566-00112819 model are models KYpS_p5bjQE-00425-00112820-00113134 within which you make variations in KYpS_p5bjQE-00426-00113135-00113386 order to achieve uh in your client or in KYpS_p5bjQE-00427-00113388-00113560 yourself KYpS_p5bjQE-00428-00113561-00113652 um KYpS_p5bjQE-00429-00113653-00113927 to get a resource that you want that is KYpS_p5bjQE-00430-00113928-00114251 uh that has escaped them for quite a KYpS_p5bjQE-00431-00114252-00114563 long time REM printing you probably know KYpS_p5bjQE-00432-00114564-00114934 the term imprinting from uh you know KYpS_p5bjQE-00433-00114935-00115145 biology or genetics or something like KYpS_p5bjQE-00434-00115146-00115397 that where the uh you know maybe KYpS_p5bjQE-00435-00115398-00115739 ducklings in print on the first moving KYpS_p5bjQE-00436-00115740-00116134 object they see well we have some uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00437-00116135-00116375 we've been imprinted and sometimes it's KYpS_p5bjQE-00438-00116376-00116581 really useful if we get KYpS_p5bjQE-00439-00116582-00116807 re-imprinted they get imprinted to KYpS_p5bjQE-00440-00116808-00116952 something else KYpS_p5bjQE-00441-00116953-00117269 discovering strategies and elicitating KYpS_p5bjQE-00442-00117270-00117593 stress eliciting strategies what's your KYpS_p5bjQE-00443-00117594-00117749 strategy for example for making KYpS_p5bjQE-00444-00117750-00118115 decisions or what's your strategy for KYpS_p5bjQE-00445-00118116-00118283 setting goals KYpS_p5bjQE-00446-00118283-00118547 um meta programs these are automatic KYpS_p5bjQE-00447-00118548-00118973 programs that that we that everyone KYpS_p5bjQE-00448-00118974-00119140 functions from but we have different KYpS_p5bjQE-00449-00119141-00119369 ones and there are some I'll just give KYpS_p5bjQE-00450-00119370-00119704 you a a couple of examples for example KYpS_p5bjQE-00451-00119705-00119993 my I have a meta program that is a KYpS_p5bjQE-00452-00119994-00120221 toured but there are some people who KYpS_p5bjQE-00453-00120222-00120581 have a meta program that is away from I KYpS_p5bjQE-00454-00120582-00120797 tend to stay in a situation until I've KYpS_p5bjQE-00455-00120798-00121031 got some place to go but I have friends KYpS_p5bjQE-00456-00121032-00121321 who are in a if they're in a KYpS_p5bjQE-00457-00121322-00121673 unsatisfactory uh situation they leave KYpS_p5bjQE-00458-00121674-00121907 it even if they don't have a place to go KYpS_p5bjQE-00459-00121908-00122116 doesn't make sense to me but it's not KYpS_p5bjQE-00460-00122117-00122428 wrong it works for them it is just not KYpS_p5bjQE-00461-00122429-00122610 the meta program that I work with KYpS_p5bjQE-00462-00122611-00122897 contrastive analysis how do you how do KYpS_p5bjQE-00463-00122898-00123058 you you know KYpS_p5bjQE-00464-00123059-00123323 you know here's this situation and one KYpS_p5bjQE-00465-00123324-00123599 of this what what's the contrast between KYpS_p5bjQE-00466-00123600-00123863 those two and how do I make uh one KYpS_p5bjQE-00467-00123864-00124181 that's unsatisfactory and and make the KYpS_p5bjQE-00468-00124182-00124415 the contrastive analysis in order to KYpS_p5bjQE-00469-00124416-00124721 make the unsatisfactory situation more KYpS_p5bjQE-00470-00124722-00125033 satisfactory metaphor now you've already KYpS_p5bjQE-00471-00125033-00125201 had a little bit of an experience with KYpS_p5bjQE-00472-00125202-00125375 that I want to just simply say to you KYpS_p5bjQE-00473-00125376-00125723 that metaphor is a way of expressing KYpS_p5bjQE-00474-00125724-00126102 truth that is trans-rational KYpS_p5bjQE-00475-00126103-00126647 it often cannot be said in logical terms KYpS_p5bjQE-00476-00126648-00127008 is not irrational it's trans-rational KYpS_p5bjQE-00477-00127009-00127421 above and beyond rational thinking and KYpS_p5bjQE-00478-00127422-00127625 then the Milton model of transcend KYpS_p5bjQE-00479-00127626-00127933 hypnosis uh Mel Eric KYpS_p5bjQE-00480-00127933-00128221 Milton Erickson KYpS_p5bjQE-00481-00128222-00128608 psychiatrist uh from I think he died in KYpS_p5bjQE-00482-00128609-00128933 the 1980s but back in the 50s who KYpS_p5bjQE-00483-00128933-00129395 developed uh therapeutic hypnosis and uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00484-00129396-00129695 and using trance and we're all in KYpS_p5bjQE-00485-00129696-00129977 trances all the time uh and I lead KYpS_p5bjQE-00486-00129978-00130169 people into trans you lead people into KYpS_p5bjQE-00487-00130170-00130427 trans one of the differences I know when KYpS_p5bjQE-00488-00130428-00130543 I'm doing it KYpS_p5bjQE-00489-00130544-00130840 I now know when I'm doing it but I KYpS_p5bjQE-00490-00130841-00131008 didn't used to know what when I was KYpS_p5bjQE-00491-00131009-00131269 doing it so so KYpS_p5bjQE-00492-00131270-00131454 by the way KYpS_p5bjQE-00493-00131455-00131728 Francis is boredom and I used to do that KYpS_p5bjQE-00494-00131729-00131849 a lot KYpS_p5bjQE-00495-00131850-00132199 foreign KYpS_p5bjQE-00496-00132200-00132425 so even though they're big words I just KYpS_p5bjQE-00497-00132426-00132563 want to say you've already been KYpS_p5bjQE-00498-00132564-00132749 experiencing some of these in the first KYpS_p5bjQE-00499-00132750-00132947 three sessions and the power of them so KYpS_p5bjQE-00500-00132948-00133169 each one of them is a very powerful tool KYpS_p5bjQE-00501-00133170-00133390 that you can use for yourself or with KYpS_p5bjQE-00502-00133391-00133678 other with your clients right so whether KYpS_p5bjQE-00503-00133679-00133978 you're a PT and KYpS_p5bjQE-00504-00133979-00134525 OT uh a coach a psychotherapist a a KYpS_p5bjQE-00505-00134526-00135049 leader manager a teacher a body worker KYpS_p5bjQE-00506-00135050-00135389 all of these all of these positions are KYpS_p5bjQE-00507-00135390-00135635 in positions to influence people and you KYpS_p5bjQE-00508-00135636-00135857 want to be able to use your influence KYpS_p5bjQE-00509-00135858-00136175 for their highest good and that means KYpS_p5bjQE-00510-00136176-00136433 knowing how to help them tap into their KYpS_p5bjQE-00511-00136434-00136721 highest good so it's a really phenomenal KYpS_p5bjQE-00512-00136722-00137009 opportunity now Larry also includes in KYpS_p5bjQE-00513-00137010-00137263 the program introductions to Enneagram KYpS_p5bjQE-00514-00137264-00137543 spiral Dynamics and Wilbur's integral KYpS_p5bjQE-00515-00137544-00137699 model and I think that most of those KYpS_p5bjQE-00516-00137700-00137861 terms are familiar to you and I'm not KYpS_p5bjQE-00517-00137862-00138131 going to go into them right now so what KYpS_p5bjQE-00518-00138132-00138407 exactly is is included in NLP success KYpS_p5bjQE-00519-00138408-00138731 it's 80 hours of live online training KYpS_p5bjQE-00520-00138732-00138907 with Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-00521-00138908-00139271 and there will also be periodic office KYpS_p5bjQE-00522-00139272-00139511 hours with Larry that you can pop into KYpS_p5bjQE-00523-00139512-00139673 and those will be set up at different KYpS_p5bjQE-00524-00139674-00139901 times of the day to match up time zones KYpS_p5bjQE-00525-00139902-00140159 it'll be a small group setting limited KYpS_p5bjQE-00526-00140160-00140477 to 40 people you'll get a detailed very KYpS_p5bjQE-00527-00140478-00140764 very detailed ebook that you will find KYpS_p5bjQE-00528-00140765-00140969 to be invaluable I think we'll probably KYpS_p5bjQE-00529-00140970-00141197 hear that from other people later you KYpS_p5bjQE-00530-00141198-00141502 can do keyword transcript search so if KYpS_p5bjQE-00531-00141503-00141899 you remember Larry telling a story about KYpS_p5bjQE-00532-00141900-00142169 um a raptor and you're like I don't know KYpS_p5bjQE-00533-00142170-00142331 there was a story about a raptor it was KYpS_p5bjQE-00534-00142332-00142463 really important you could put in the KYpS_p5bjQE-00535-00142464-00142685 word Raptor and it will take you to any KYpS_p5bjQE-00536-00142686-00142943 time you use the word Raptor there will KYpS_p5bjQE-00537-00142944-00143159 be a lot of small group practice and KYpS_p5bjQE-00538-00143160-00143489 interaction which is where most of you KYpS_p5bjQE-00539-00143490-00143639 change I think is going to happen we'll KYpS_p5bjQE-00540-00143640-00143861 hear from the past participants a little KYpS_p5bjQE-00541-00143862-00144107 bit later what they say about that but I KYpS_p5bjQE-00542-00144108-00144251 think it's these are small group KYpS_p5bjQE-00543-00144252-00144466 interactions are very powerful and then KYpS_p5bjQE-00544-00144467-00144652 there's a private chat group where you KYpS_p5bjQE-00545-00144653-00144809 can have conversations with each other KYpS_p5bjQE-00546-00144810-00145013 and Larry and that's been highly KYpS_p5bjQE-00547-00145014-00145283 utilized for people to bounce things off KYpS_p5bjQE-00548-00145284-00145469 of each other and also to set up their KYpS_p5bjQE-00549-00145470-00145637 own little practice sessions with each KYpS_p5bjQE-00550-00145638-00145709 other KYpS_p5bjQE-00551-00145710-00146033 so it's a value of of well over three KYpS_p5bjQE-00552-00146034-00146297 thousand dollars but you can get started KYpS_p5bjQE-00553-00146298-00146639 today by paying 525 today and then have KYpS_p5bjQE-00554-00146640-00147028 three more payments or you pay 1887 and KYpS_p5bjQE-00555-00147029-00147319 full today and you would save 213 KYpS_p5bjQE-00556-00147320-00147754 dollars and to get there you go to NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-00557-00147755-00148147 success Dot online KYpS_p5bjQE-00558-00148148-00148661 NLP success Dot online and I will also KYpS_p5bjQE-00559-00148662-00148943 put that in the chat for you right now KYpS_p5bjQE-00560-00148944-00149213 because you can go ahead and KYpS_p5bjQE-00561-00149214-00149452 um KYpS_p5bjQE-00562-00149453-00149771 get there and see that it's full of KYpS_p5bjQE-00563-00149772-00150173 information for you KYpS_p5bjQE-00564-00150174-00150407 can I say that the titles may be KYpS_p5bjQE-00565-00150408-00150683 difficult the learning is easy and it's KYpS_p5bjQE-00566-00150684-00150971 fun if we if it's not fun we're not KYpS_p5bjQE-00567-00150972-00151487 doing it so so if you will and I'm my KYpS_p5bjQE-00568-00151488-00151757 goal is that we learn a lot but have a KYpS_p5bjQE-00569-00151758-00152057 good time doing it try that again where KYpS_p5bjQE-00570-00152058-00152201 you could actually click on it I hope KYpS_p5bjQE-00571-00152202-00152464 maybe I'm not sure KYpS_p5bjQE-00572-00152465-00152699 um let's go into a little bit more of KYpS_p5bjQE-00573-00152700-00152945 the details about it so the office hours KYpS_p5bjQE-00574-00152946-00153143 These are times where you can just show KYpS_p5bjQE-00575-00153144-00153335 up and ask Larry anything he doesn't KYpS_p5bjQE-00576-00153336-00153664 have something prepared it's just you're KYpS_p5bjQE-00577-00153665-00153857 like sitting around with the material or KYpS_p5bjQE-00578-00153858-00154073 you had something just happen and you KYpS_p5bjQE-00579-00154074-00154259 want his opinion on it or you're KYpS_p5bjQE-00580-00154260-00154535 confused about a particular concept or KYpS_p5bjQE-00581-00154536-00155009 idea so he uh he sits online and waits KYpS_p5bjQE-00582-00155010-00155147 for people to show up and ask questions KYpS_p5bjQE-00583-00155148-00155428 and they do don't they Larry yes all KYpS_p5bjQE-00584-00155429-00155699 kinds of questions so they're quite loud KYpS_p5bjQE-00585-00155700-00155902 some of them are more personal some of KYpS_p5bjQE-00586-00155903-00156101 them professional some of them have to KYpS_p5bjQE-00587-00156102-00156245 do with what we've been doing and what KYpS_p5bjQE-00588-00156246-00156389 we've been learning and some of them KYpS_p5bjQE-00589-00156390-00156731 don't have something else to do okay and KYpS_p5bjQE-00590-00156732-00156923 there's also a bonus of a private KYpS_p5bjQE-00591-00156924-00157109 session with Larry that's charged KYpS_p5bjQE-00592-00157110-00157409 normally at 175 dollars an hour and of KYpS_p5bjQE-00593-00157410-00157559 course you're probably not going to be KYpS_p5bjQE-00594-00157560-00157804 local to Cincinnati but I wanted you to KYpS_p5bjQE-00595-00157805-00158123 kind of see that NLP sessions have a KYpS_p5bjQE-00596-00158124-00158314 really they look very different KYpS_p5bjQE-00597-00158315-00158573 sometimes a person might be very relaxed KYpS_p5bjQE-00598-00158574-00158837 and and going deep inside themselves KYpS_p5bjQE-00599-00158838-00159016 sometimes they might be talking KYpS_p5bjQE-00600-00159017-00159202 sometimes you might be walking a KYpS_p5bjQE-00601-00159203-00159413 timeline and if Larry was in the room KYpS_p5bjQE-00602-00159414-00159581 with you he might touch you at different KYpS_p5bjQE-00603-00159582-00159826 points in the timeline to Anchor with KYpS_p5bjQE-00604-00159827-00160133 permission with permission again yes KYpS_p5bjQE-00605-00160134-00160464 thank you KYpS_p5bjQE-00606-00160465-00160871 so NLP is a very beautiful set of tools KYpS_p5bjQE-00607-00160872-00161159 that can be used in lots and lots of KYpS_p5bjQE-00608-00161160-00161501 different professions and settings KYpS_p5bjQE-00609-00161502-00161873 now you uh can choose to certify or not KYpS_p5bjQE-00610-00161874-00162047 but I want to talk a little bit about KYpS_p5bjQE-00611-00162048-00162221 what it means if you do want the KYpS_p5bjQE-00612-00162222-00162485 certification so there's two ways to KYpS_p5bjQE-00613-00162486-00162652 certify this year last year there was KYpS_p5bjQE-00614-00162653-00162833 only one way and this year there are two KYpS_p5bjQE-00615-00162834-00162995 ways so so if some of you were like KYpS_p5bjQE-00616-00162996-00163199 didn't sign up last year because of this KYpS_p5bjQE-00617-00163200-00163409 we want to let you know this so the KYpS_p5bjQE-00618-00163410-00163685 first way to certify is you attend 75 KYpS_p5bjQE-00619-00163686-00163969 percent of the sessions live KYpS_p5bjQE-00620-00163970-00164357 and and you submit uh by the end you KYpS_p5bjQE-00621-00164358-00164639 submit a case study video with you and a KYpS_p5bjQE-00622-00164640-00165004 client for review and you uh also review KYpS_p5bjQE-00623-00165005-00165233 each other's by the way KYpS_p5bjQE-00624-00165234-00165514 and then the other way that you can do KYpS_p5bjQE-00625-00165515-00165713 it this year is you would do it on KYpS_p5bjQE-00626-00165714-00165959 replay so this is meant to accommodate KYpS_p5bjQE-00627-00165960-00166193 those people on on the other side of the KYpS_p5bjQE-00628-00166194-00166552 world primarily do it on replay and take KYpS_p5bjQE-00629-00166553-00166978 a test at the end as well as submit your KYpS_p5bjQE-00630-00166979-00167261 case study video KYpS_p5bjQE-00631-00167262-00167776

foreign KYpS_p5bjQE-00679-00180036-00180395 hey friends hi good afternoon KYpS_p5bjQE-00680-00180396-00180737 Delmar was in Larry's very first uh NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-00681-00180738-00181001 certification course about 10ish years KYpS_p5bjQE-00682-00181002-00181128 ago I think KYpS_p5bjQE-00683-00181129-00181523 2012. practitioner certification you've KYpS_p5bjQE-00684-00181524-00181763 got you've got a cooler title these days KYpS_p5bjQE-00685-00181764-00182076 that's right KYpS_p5bjQE-00686-00182077-00182345 well like you tell more we've been we've KYpS_p5bjQE-00687-00182346-00182459 been doing a little work on KYpS_p5bjQE-00688-00182460-00182657 understanding how to reach people that's KYpS_p5bjQE-00689-00182658-00183028 for sure so uh but don't worry I think KYpS_p5bjQE-00690-00183029-00183304 you actually began your work with Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-00691-00183305-00183526 by showing up for a private session as I KYpS_p5bjQE-00692-00183527-00183664 recall KYpS_p5bjQE-00693-00183665-00184061 right uh so Cynthia and I uh knew each KYpS_p5bjQE-00694-00184062-00184223 other some because I'm a clinical KYpS_p5bjQE-00695-00184224-00184481 massage therapist so we had crossed KYpS_p5bjQE-00696-00184482-00184726 paths in the Bodywork world but I was KYpS_p5bjQE-00697-00184727-00185069 working a job as an HR executive in a KYpS_p5bjQE-00698-00185070-00185164 company KYpS_p5bjQE-00699-00185165-00185381 there was a really great company right KYpS_p5bjQE-00700-00185382-00185728 up until it really wasn't and uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00701-00185729-00186040 a company I helped build and I and I KYpS_p5bjQE-00702-00186041-00186359 loved and it and it really just went in KYpS_p5bjQE-00703-00186360-00186604 the tank and I was completely utterly KYpS_p5bjQE-00704-00186605-00186737 stuck KYpS_p5bjQE-00705-00186738-00186952 I couldn't move forward couldn't move KYpS_p5bjQE-00706-00186953-00187271 back I was miserable and I had you know KYpS_p5bjQE-00707-00187272-00187601 uh considerable tools available to me I KYpS_p5bjQE-00708-00187602-00187888 was uh trained in multiple coaching KYpS_p5bjQE-00709-00187889-00188075 models and so on KYpS_p5bjQE-00710-00188076-00188459 and uh I'd been studying NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-00711-00188460-00188716 along with a bunch of other models and KYpS_p5bjQE-00712-00188717-00188902 I'd kind of come to the end of the road KYpS_p5bjQE-00713-00188903-00189097 of what I could do through reading books KYpS_p5bjQE-00714-00189098-00189493 getting courses on DVDs remember those KYpS_p5bjQE-00715-00189494-00190078 and trying to uh manage this myself and KYpS_p5bjQE-00716-00190079-00190409 um and I and I thought of uh I thought KYpS_p5bjQE-00717-00190410-00190613 of this guy I'd heard of called Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-00718-00190614-00190787 that was affiliated with my friend KYpS_p5bjQE-00719-00190788-00191152 Cynthia so I rang him up and in KYpS_p5bjQE-00720-00191153-00191423 retrospect I almost have to apologize uh KYpS_p5bjQE-00721-00191424-00191561 Larry for being a terrible client KYpS_p5bjQE-00722-00191562-00192040 because I did one session with Larry and KYpS_p5bjQE-00723-00192041-00192185 I was just trying to think back this KYpS_p5bjQE-00724-00192186-00192454 morning of what the what you did in that KYpS_p5bjQE-00725-00192455-00192766 it was basically some form of KYpS_p5bjQE-00726-00192767-00192847 um KYpS_p5bjQE-00727-00192848-00193337 belief shifting and logical levels and KYpS_p5bjQE-00728-00193338-00193751 uh alignment and working with parts in KYpS_p5bjQE-00729-00193752-00194195 Conflict it utterly freed me one session KYpS_p5bjQE-00730-00194196-00194519 one session instantaneous change I got KYpS_p5bjQE-00731-00194520-00194969 moving I found a new job KYpS_p5bjQE-00732-00194970-00195269 like everything changed for me I I think KYpS_p5bjQE-00733-00195270-00195521 in terms of life change you know there KYpS_p5bjQE-00734-00195522-00195719 are you look back in the rear view KYpS_p5bjQE-00735-00195720-00195943 mirror under these inflection points KYpS_p5bjQE-00736-00195944-00196187 that single session was a major KYpS_p5bjQE-00737-00196188-00196390 inflection point KYpS_p5bjQE-00738-00196391-00196631 and so I continued to stay uh in touch KYpS_p5bjQE-00739-00196632-00196799 with them and Larry reached out to me KYpS_p5bjQE-00740-00196800-00197038 not so long after that to say I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-00741-00197039-00197213 thinking about doing a certification KYpS_p5bjQE-00742-00197214-00197416 program and I interrupted him and said KYpS_p5bjQE-00743-00197417-00197723 enroll me so like don't you want to know KYpS_p5bjQE-00744-00197724-00198076 what it costs like no like I need these KYpS_p5bjQE-00745-00198077-00198490 tools yeah and um yeah so I mean that KYpS_p5bjQE-00746-00198491-00198725 was that was the start but yeah we were KYpS_p5bjQE-00747-00198726-00198971 we were a small uh a little a small KYpS_p5bjQE-00748-00198972-00199331 cohort yeah then KYpS_p5bjQE-00749-00199332-00199504 are you um

KYpS_p5bjQE-00801-00212285-00212579 origin of your story of of of this KYpS_p5bjQE-00802-00212580-00212860 fiction we call our personality KYpS_p5bjQE-00803-00212861-00213046 um thousand hours of

embodied and wound up in the body KYpS_p5bjQE-00807-00213896-00214294 Bodywork felt in Christ uh so so many KYpS_p5bjQE-00808-00214296-00214456 great methods KYpS_p5bjQE-00809-00214457-00214715 uh what I found though KYpS_p5bjQE-00810-00214716-00215015 uh personally speaking and for my KYpS_p5bjQE-00811-00215016-00215117 clients KYpS_p5bjQE-00812-00215117-00215617 that NLP is the single most effective KYpS_p5bjQE-00813-00215617-00215975 and Lasting and efficient form of KYpS_p5bjQE-00814-00215976-00216191 behavior change KYpS_p5bjQE-00815-00216192-00216455 I mean it's I I didn't tell you guys I KYpS_p5bjQE-00816-00216456-00216646 was going to say that but this is I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-00817-00216648-00217060 passionate about this that I I've really KYpS_p5bjQE-00818-00217061-00217456 you know uh been to the mountain of all KYpS_p5bjQE-00819-00217457-00217625 of these different coaching models and KYpS_p5bjQE-00820-00217626-00217829 I've pursued certifications and other KYpS_p5bjQE-00821-00217830-00218015 kinds of coaching and so on and KYpS_p5bjQE-00822-00218016-00218267 everything comes back to these KYpS_p5bjQE-00823-00218267-00218621 foundational NLP tactics for me so KYpS_p5bjQE-00824-00218621-00218819 all of the coaching that I do I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-00825-00218819-00219034 professionally a coach these days KYpS_p5bjQE-00826-00219035-00219281 so I've learned how to in Del Mar I mean KYpS_p5bjQE-00827-00219282-00219479 one of the questions that came up a lot KYpS_p5bjQE-00828-00219480-00219767 uh that I saw as people were entering KYpS_p5bjQE-00829-00219767-00220013 and asking we asked them as they enter KYpS_p5bjQE-00830-00220014-00220223 into the process with us you know what KYpS_p5bjQE-00831-00220223-00220415 are you most hoping to get and they KYpS_p5bjQE-00832-00220416-00220565 talked about building their practice KYpS_p5bjQE-00833-00220566-00220787 they said I need to know how to build my KYpS_p5bjQE-00834-00220788-00221146 practice and I'm just curious if you KYpS_p5bjQE-00835-00221148-00221417 think I mean I know NLP itself does not KYpS_p5bjQE-00836-00221417-00221596 directly tell you how to build your KYpS_p5bjQE-00837-00221598-00221825 practice but I'm thinking you have KYpS_p5bjQE-00838-00221826-00222034 you've picked up some skills along that KYpS_p5bjQE-00839-00222035-00222208 way KYpS_p5bjQE-00840-00222209-00222610 well as as you very well know I Cynthia KYpS_p5bjQE-00841-00222611-00222841 and I get coffee together occasionally

the certification process made it KYpS_p5bjQE-00851-00225492-00225875 impossible for me to return to this very KYpS_p5bjQE-00852-00225876-00226060 good life that I had professionally I KYpS_p5bjQE-00853-00226061-00226306 had I simply got so aligned that I had KYpS_p5bjQE-00854-00226307-00226732 to pursue my dream of being a coach and KYpS_p5bjQE-00855-00226733-00227075 helping

trying to build my KYpS_p5bjQE-00874-00231930-00232031 practice as a building Christ KYpS_p5bjQE-00875-00232032-00232192 practitioner KYpS_p5bjQE-00876-00232194-00232492 I mean I I actually won an award for KYpS_p5bjQE-00877-00232494-00232705 marketing about KYpS_p5bjQE-00878-00232706-00233098 35 years ago it was a weird award I just KYpS_p5bjQE-00879-00233100-00233344 so can't believe I ever got that KYpS_p5bjQE-00880-00233346-00233669 um and it was was I was uh helping a an KYpS_p5bjQE-00881-00233669-00233867 accounting firm build up practice KYpS_p5bjQE-00882-00233867-00234089 management Division and I won an award KYpS_p5bjQE-00883-00234090-00234329 at that point for it but when I went to KYpS_p5bjQE-00884-00234330-00234587 go to into private practice for myself I KYpS_p5bjQE-00885-00234588-00234887 I did not have a good parachute and it KYpS_p5bjQE-00886-00234888-00235163 took so long and I just kept trying to KYpS_p5bjQE-00887-00235164-00235421 whittle away at building the skills KYpS_p5bjQE-00888-00235421-00235696 until I finally suddenly had a turnover KYpS_p5bjQE-00889-00235698-00235889 point right several years in a turnover KYpS_p5bjQE-00890-00235890-00236032 point where I went KYpS_p5bjQE-00891-00236033-00236237 oh my gosh I think maybe I'm not gonna KYpS_p5bjQE-00892-00236238-00236644 worry about this anymore and but now I KYpS_p5bjQE-00893-00236646-00236842 see looking back how many different KYpS_p5bjQE-00894-00236844-00236998 things I could have done differently KYpS_p5bjQE-00895-00237000-00237179 right that would have made that a little KYpS_p5bjQE-00896-00237180-00237544 bit quicker a little bit easier so for KYpS_p5bjQE-00897-00237546-00237719 those of you who are thinking well I KYpS_p5bjQE-00898-00237719-00237982 might just take another thing and then KYpS_p5bjQE-00899-00237983-00238132 I'm not going to know what to do with it KYpS_p5bjQE-00900-00238133-00238289 first I just want to encourage you that KYpS_p5bjQE-00901-00238290-00238456 Del Mar figured out what to do with it KYpS_p5bjQE-00902-00238457-00238715 but also we got like a little super

last night so it's KYpS_p5bjQE-00934-00246696-00247048 still snowing outside KYpS_p5bjQE-00935-00247050-00247360 um and I am a physical therapist KYpS_p5bjQE-00936-00247361-00247606 originally and KYpS_p5bjQE-00937-00247607-00247858 um felden price practitioner KYpS_p5bjQE-00938-00247859-00247925 um KYpS_p5bjQE-00939-00247926-00248248 maybe about 10 years after my physical KYpS_p5bjQE-00940-00248250-00248382 therapy KYpS_p5bjQE-00941-00248383-00248617 training and KYpS_p5bjQE-00942-00248617-00248879 I came KYpS_p5bjQE-00943-00248880-00249251 I went through a divorce KYpS_p5bjQE-00944-00249252-00249617 um maybe 20 years ago and did an KYpS_p5bjQE-00945-00249617-00249856 advanced training in Canada felt in KYpS_p5bjQE-00946-00249857-00250084 Christ training and there was a an NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-00947-00250085-00250451 practitioner there who offered to do a KYpS_p5bjQE-00948-00250452-00250594 session with me KYpS_p5bjQE-00949-00250596-00250913 and I did KYpS_p5bjQE-00950-00250914-00251251 and I felt like I was doing it wrong KYpS_p5bjQE-00951-00251252-00251651 like something wasn't connecting KYpS_p5bjQE-00952-00251652-00252023 um and but it was an interesting thing KYpS_p5bjQE-00953-00252023-00252292 she asked me questions and KYpS_p5bjQE-00954-00252294-00252365 um KYpS_p5bjQE-00955-00252366-00252653 but I let it go at that but then it KYpS_p5bjQE-00956-00252654-00252898 would come up every once in a while in KYpS_p5bjQE-00957-00252900-00253103 training or KYpS_p5bjQE-00958-00253104-00253313 um I'm on Cynthia and Larry's email KYpS_p5bjQE-00959-00253314-00253451 lists KYpS_p5bjQE-00960-00253452-00253781 and so finally a training came up that KYpS_p5bjQE-00961-00253782-00254034 was uh online KYpS_p5bjQE-00962-00254035-00254494 and so this was last year at this time KYpS_p5bjQE-00963-00254496-00254939 so I had done the three series just like KYpS_p5bjQE-00964-00254940-00255173 everyone's doing now KYpS_p5bjQE-00965-00255173-00255532 and did the goal setting and it was KYpS_p5bjQE-00966-00255533-00255744 really really powerful KYpS_p5bjQE-00967-00255746-00255941 and KYpS_p5bjQE-00968-00255942-00256360 so I emailed Larry and Cynthia to learn KYpS_p5bjQE-00969-00256361-00256642 more about it to see if KYpS_p5bjQE-00970-00256644-00257092 what I said was when is enough enough KYpS_p5bjQE-00971-00257094-00257346 you know like when have I learned enough KYpS_p5bjQE-00972-00257348-00257644 that I don't need continuing in the KYpS_p5bjQE-00973-00257646-00257794 process KYpS_p5bjQE-00974-00257796-00258089 and I forget Larry's response but it was KYpS_p5bjQE-00975-00258090-00258451 very satisfying KYpS_p5bjQE-00976-00258452-00258617 and KYpS_p5bjQE-00977-00258617-00258832 um so I signed up KYpS_p5bjQE-00978-00258833-00259246 and I'll tell you every single segment I KYpS_p5bjQE-00979-00259248-00259553 said to myself I am so happy I'm doing KYpS_p5bjQE-00980-00259554-00259630 this KYpS_p5bjQE-00981-00259631-00259937 I am so happy I'm doing this KYpS_p5bjQE-00982-00259938-00260284 and the reason for that is because I was KYpS_p5bjQE-00983-00260285-00260567 learning skills that I didn't KYpS_p5bjQE-00984-00260567-00260860 have or know or learned before KYpS_p5bjQE-00985-00260861-00261041 that were making a difference for me KYpS_p5bjQE-00986-00261042-00261329 personally and for the clients that I've KYpS_p5bjQE-00987-00261330-00261451 worked with KYpS_p5bjQE-00988-00261452-00261719 so in physical therapy and fell in KYpS_p5bjQE-00989-00261719-00262001 Christ we do a lot of movement and KYpS_p5bjQE-00990-00262002-00262330 somatic practices KYpS_p5bjQE-00991-00262331-00262697 um but we don't really learn the Deep KYpS_p5bjQE-00992-00262698-00262979 Way of communicating with people so that KYpS_p5bjQE-00993-00262980-00263363 they're heard without compromising our KYpS_p5bjQE-00994-00263364-00263584 own integrity KYpS_p5bjQE-00995-00263585-00263927 so I had new ways that I could be with KYpS_p5bjQE-00996-00263928-00264256 people in listening and hearing and KYpS_p5bjQE-00997-00264257-00264497 having a clear sense of the kinds of KYpS_p5bjQE-00998-00264498-00264832 questions that can be can be asked KYpS_p5bjQE-00999-00264833-00265415 so um so it was very rewarding and uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01000-00265416-00265853 I also will give a shout out for Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-01001-00265854-00266321 that he does make it fun and KYpS_p5bjQE-01002-00266322-00266843 um I liked his amusement KYpS_p5bjQE-01003-00266844-00267130 in the stories that he told like just KYpS_p5bjQE-01004-00267131-00267575 hearing him laugh and tell the related KYpS_p5bjQE-01005-00267576-00268006 stories it just made me laugh and so KYpS_p5bjQE-01006-00268007-00268301 um so anyway it was it was it was great KYpS_p5bjQE-01007-00268302-00268571 and then I'll speak to one more piece KYpS_p5bjQE-01008-00268572-00268930 that was really important is the um KYpS_p5bjQE-01009-00268931-00269165 how we worked in small groups and then KYpS_p5bjQE-01010-00269166-00269513 afterwards uh some of us did KYpS_p5bjQE-01011-00269514-00269879 um our own Zoom study groups which are KYpS_p5bjQE-01012-00269880-00270251 I'm still involved with now and every KYpS_p5bjQE-01013-00270252-00270595 single time there's something that is KYpS_p5bjQE-01014-00270596-00270953 highlighted or experienced or understood KYpS_p5bjQE-01015-00270954-00271253 that continues to deepen the work and so KYpS_p5bjQE-01016-00271254-00271519 it's a very supportive environment KYpS_p5bjQE-01017-00271520-00271769 that's so beautiful thank you for KYpS_p5bjQE-01018-00271770-00272039 sharing we're going to

KYpS_p5bjQE-01028-00274314-00274547 going crazy today doing a great job KYpS_p5bjQE-01029-00274548-00274793 staying focused so I am I'm trying to KYpS_p5bjQE-01030-00274794-00274984 stay very focused KYpS_p5bjQE-01031-00274985-00275356 um it I just want to say that um KYpS_p5bjQE-01032-00275357-00275873 one of the reasons I decided to take the KYpS_p5bjQE-01033-00275874-00276029 the training KYpS_p5bjQE-01034-00276030-00276503 was because Cynthia invited me as to the KYpS_p5bjQE-01035-00276504-00276721 summit to be a speaker KYpS_p5bjQE-01036-00276722-00277121 and uh I was scared KYpS_p5bjQE-01037-00277122-00277493 I wasn't able to talk and KYpS_p5bjQE-01038-00277494-00277745 um it was I was really I was terrifying KYpS_p5bjQE-01039-00277746-00278027 and it's okay I need to get over this I KYpS_p5bjQE-01040-00278028-00278189 don't know what I'm doing but I need to KYpS_p5bjQE-01041-00278190-00278303 get over this KYpS_p5bjQE-01042-00278304-00278508 and that's when I thought okay I'll call KYpS_p5bjQE-01043-00278509-00279017 Larry and uh like Del Mar I'm a terrible KYpS_p5bjQE-01044-00279018-00279643 client only took one section KYpS_p5bjQE-01045-00279644-00279953 it was it was incredible KYpS_p5bjQE-01046-00279954-00280103 um KYpS_p5bjQE-01047-00280104-00280380 the thought errors that I had KYpS_p5bjQE-01048-00280381-00280825 uh he was able to help me unpack that KYpS_p5bjQE-01049-00280826-00281308 and it also appealed to my sense of KYpS_p5bjQE-01050-00281309-00281482 identity KYpS_p5bjQE-01051-00281483-00281813 and that made a huge change in my KYpS_p5bjQE-01052-00281814-00282137 ability to kind of flip it and the KYpS_p5bjQE-01053-00282138-00282317 problem was gone KYpS_p5bjQE-01054-00282318-00282539 was it was brilliant KYpS_p5bjQE-01055-00282540-00282839 and I see as a felden Christ KYpS_p5bjQE-01056-00282840-00283073 practitioner I'm also a massage KYpS_p5bjQE-01057-00283074-00283405 therapist I'm in the Body Work World KYpS_p5bjQE-01058-00283406-00283817 and when I experienced that it was like KYpS_p5bjQE-01059-00283818-00284123 I had developed a variation KYpS_p5bjQE-01060-00284124-00284651 I think of NLP as fellow Christ for the KYpS_p5bjQE-01061-00284652-00284765 mind KYpS_p5bjQE-01062-00284766-00284945 right and KYpS_p5bjQE-01063-00284946-00285323 that's actually that's how I I think of KYpS_p5bjQE-01064-00285324-00285497 it the thought errors are movement KYpS_p5bjQE-01065-00285498-00285665 errors KYpS_p5bjQE-01066-00285666-00286043 and when we can create variations KYpS_p5bjQE-01067-00286044-00286330 then we have more choice KYpS_p5bjQE-01068-00286331-00286684 and so I saw the parallels with my KYpS_p5bjQE-01069-00286685-00286853 private practice as a felony price KYpS_p5bjQE-01070-00286854-00287260 practitioner and I could I saw it also KYpS_p5bjQE-01071-00287261-00287645 as a way to maybe further help clients KYpS_p5bjQE-01072-00287646-00287923 with how they language KYpS_p5bjQE-01073-00287924-00288167 their challenges KYpS_p5bjQE-01074-00288168-00288347 and KYpS_p5bjQE-01075-00288348-00288725 um so that spaciousness of thinking of KYpS_p5bjQE-01076-00288726-00289030 the mind creates this spaciousness in KYpS_p5bjQE-01077-00289031-00289132 movement KYpS_p5bjQE-01078-00289133-00289403 and so I I see them working beautifully KYpS_p5bjQE-01079-00289404-00289613 together KYpS_p5bjQE-01080-00289614-00289823 um but KYpS_p5bjQE-01081-00289824-00290117 I I think that one of the one of the big KYpS_p5bjQE-01082-00290118-00290363 things for me is how KYpS_p5bjQE-01083-00290364-00290734 unaware I was about my assumptions KYpS_p5bjQE-01084-00290735-00290921 about life KYpS_p5bjQE-01085-00290922-00291167 about memories KYpS_p5bjQE-01086-00291168-00291515 just overall like what are the KYpS_p5bjQE-01087-00291516-00291767 assumptions that I have been hanging on KYpS_p5bjQE-01088-00291768-00292121 to that is stopping me from uh growing KYpS_p5bjQE-01089-00292122-00292558 as a human being so I I think that that KYpS_p5bjQE-01090-00292559-00292771 is a big thing and then another KYpS_p5bjQE-01091-00292772-00293069 interesting thing that and and we all KYpS_p5bjQE-01092-00293070-00293273 know that our memories are flawed right KYpS_p5bjQE-01093-00293274-00293680 we all know memories it's logical but KYpS_p5bjQE-01094-00293681-00294023 when you really truly feel it and have KYpS_p5bjQE-01095-00294024-00294397 strategy to mess with it a little bit KYpS_p5bjQE-01096-00294398-00294569 alter it KYpS_p5bjQE-01097-00294570-00294910 then there's the magic right there's the KYpS_p5bjQE-01098-00294911-00295325 magic so uh I think the work is pivotal KYpS_p5bjQE-01099-00295326-00295505 personally KYpS_p5bjQE-01100-00295506-00295775 I keep coming back to it when I run into KYpS_p5bjQE-01101-00295776-00295997 challenges you know I we all have our KYpS_p5bjQE-01102-00295998-00296213 habits we all have our movement habits KYpS_p5bjQE-01103-00296214-00296530 and we all have our ways of thinking KYpS_p5bjQE-01104-00296531-00296843 habits and so I continuously come back KYpS_p5bjQE-01105-00296844-00297232 to it and and when do you stop learning KYpS_p5bjQE-01106-00297233-00297443 you never stop learning right you never KYpS_p5bjQE-01107-00297444-00297743 stop learning about yourself and growing KYpS_p5bjQE-01108-00297744-00298225 uh as a human being so I'm I'm excited KYpS_p5bjQE-01109-00298226-00298558 about this process and I've decided to KYpS_p5bjQE-01110-00298559-00298865 enroll in the I think it's a you call it KYpS_p5bjQE-01111-00298866-00299434 the Masters uh NLP Destiny yeah yeah I KYpS_p5bjQE-01112-00299435-00299705 just want to keep learning yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01113-00299706-00299879 yeah I'm gonna grab KYpS_p5bjQE-01114-00299880-00300106 um Tony here she's gonna fill in for the KYpS_p5bjQE-01115-00300107-00300256 person who didn't come in because Tony KYpS_p5bjQE-01116-00300257-00300545 just ready Tony nark yeah she's not KYpS_p5bjQE-01117-00300546-00300971 ready all the time hi Tony hi Tony KYpS_p5bjQE-01118-00300972-00301258 will want to hear from you about KYpS_p5bjQE-01119-00301259-00301517 um how you see it just a little bit more KYpS_p5bjQE-01120-00301518-00301673 you saw I think you told me ahead of KYpS_p5bjQE-01121-00301674-00301847 time you didn't tell me a detail but you KYpS_p5bjQE-01122-00301848-00301984 had a couple clients it's been really KYpS_p5bjQE-01123-00301985-00302134 impactful for KYpS_p5bjQE-01124-00302135-00302417 I think we just happen to have a really KYpS_p5bjQE-01125-00302418-00302603 strong contingency here I want to KYpS_p5bjQE-01126-00302604-00302801 acknowledge that of people working in KYpS_p5bjQE-01127-00302802-00303149 movement but NLP really you could that KYpS_p5bjQE-01128-00303150-00303310 just happens to be because that's the KYpS_p5bjQE-01129-00303311-00303599 way our list tends to run you absolutely KYpS_p5bjQE-01130-00303600-00303893 NLP is absolutely used by sales people KYpS_p5bjQE-01131-00303894-00304247 by ministers by coaches by KYpS_p5bjQE-01132-00304248-00304630 psychotherapists anybody who wants to be KYpS_p5bjQE-01133-00304631-00304889 again more influential in a good way KYpS_p5bjQE-01134-00304890-00305297 right use their power for good uh it is KYpS_p5bjQE-01135-00305298-00305813 a great approach for uh NLP and Tony KYpS_p5bjQE-01136-00305814-00305951 yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01137-00305952-00306287 um good morning I wasn't prepared to KYpS_p5bjQE-01138-00306288-00306503 speak for for Cynthia this one and Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-01139-00306504-00306706 this morning so but in listening to KYpS_p5bjQE-01140-00306707-00306910 everybody my experience was a bit KYpS_p5bjQE-01141-00306911-00307127 different I didn't get into NLP for any KYpS_p5bjQE-01142-00307128-00307379 professional reason it wasn't one and KYpS_p5bjQE-01143-00307380-00307577 done for me KYpS_p5bjQE-01144-00307578-00307799 um I have suffered from post-traumatic KYpS_p5bjQE-01145-00307800-00307960 stress disorder for most of my from KYpS_p5bjQE-01146-00307961-00308099 childhood KYpS_p5bjQE-01147-00308100-00308351 and I carried it you know all the way KYpS_p5bjQE-01148-00308352-00308867 I'm 60 now and but when I got into NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-01149-00308868-00309143 um it taught me how to be in my body and KYpS_p5bjQE-01150-00309144-00309395 how and to be in my Minds in a more KYpS_p5bjQE-01151-00309396-00309504 joyful KYpS_p5bjQE-01152-00309505-00309910 happy more high functioning way and um KYpS_p5bjQE-01153-00309911-00310097 and the fact that I'm able to be a KYpS_p5bjQE-01154-00310098-00310415 little more at ease in KYpS_p5bjQE-01155-00310416-00310756 my thought process and it also makes me KYpS_p5bjQE-01156-00310757-00310949 very sensitive to the people around me KYpS_p5bjQE-01157-00310950-00311267 and how I sense and listen to them now KYpS_p5bjQE-01158-00311268-00311560 and I just have been brought a whole KYpS_p5bjQE-01159-00311561-00311830 different set of tools of how I sense KYpS_p5bjQE-01160-00311831-00312208 myself as well as the world around me KYpS_p5bjQE-01161-00312209-00312454 that's wonderful and do you mind just KYpS_p5bjQE-01162-00312455-00312634 saying just a little bit about your KYpS_p5bjQE-01163-00312635-00312827 sleeping challenge that you have sure KYpS_p5bjQE-01164-00312828-00312971 yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01165-00312972-00313325 um so with my I couldn't sleep I I've KYpS_p5bjQE-01166-00313326-00313499 spent most of my life KYpS_p5bjQE-01167-00313500-00313823 um sleep deprived and I learned through KYpS_p5bjQE-01168-00313824-00314045 and what would happen is I would I could KYpS_p5bjQE-01169-00314046-00314308 fall asleep but I couldn't stay asleep KYpS_p5bjQE-01170-00314309-00314489 and when I what would happen I would KYpS_p5bjQE-01171-00314490-00314710 wake up and it was like KYpS_p5bjQE-01172-00314711-00314849 um KYpS_p5bjQE-01173-00314850-00315095 um uh when you play the drums the KYpS_p5bjQE-01174-00315096-00315371 symbols KYpS_p5bjQE-01175-00315372-00315665 that that was going on throughout my KYpS_p5bjQE-01176-00315666-00315839 whole body through whether it was my KYpS_p5bjQE-01177-00315840-00316084 arms my legs my torso my brain KYpS_p5bjQE-01178-00316085-00316301 everything was it was just KYpS_p5bjQE-01179-00316302-00316577 in the back and it was just not letting KYpS_p5bjQE-01180-00316578-00316967 me rest or be at ease and when I started KYpS_p5bjQE-01181-00316968-00317158 learning these prints that's why I was KYpS_p5bjQE-01182-00317159-00317315 sharing with you it wasn't one and done KYpS_p5bjQE-01183-00317316-00317434 with me KYpS_p5bjQE-01184-00317435-00317615 um going through the training and KYpS_p5bjQE-01185-00317616-00317873 learning all these processes KYpS_p5bjQE-01186-00317874-00318154 um what was incredible the first time KYpS_p5bjQE-01187-00318155-00318310 around I went through the training twice KYpS_p5bjQE-01188-00318311-00318580 and I'm I'm going to on to the next KYpS_p5bjQE-01189-00318581-00318797 level but but Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-01190-00318798-00319084 um but the the first time it created it KYpS_p5bjQE-01191-00319085-00319295 made it possible for me to sleep KYpS_p5bjQE-01192-00319296-00319547 and then and the second time it's made KYpS_p5bjQE-01193-00319548-00319804 it possible for me just to be happy KYpS_p5bjQE-01194-00319805-00320008 [Music] KYpS_p5bjQE-01195-00320009-00320291 and I find I also want to share that I KYpS_p5bjQE-01196-00320292-00320537 don't find it complicated KYpS_p5bjQE-01197-00320538-00320929 um I I find everything about it kind of KYpS_p5bjQE-01198-00320930-00321191 parochial and simple KYpS_p5bjQE-01199-00321192-00321401 um I I think that we that it can be KYpS_p5bjQE-01200-00321402-00321653 complicated I think that life can be KYpS_p5bjQE-01201-00321654-00321941 complicated but I think the approach is KYpS_p5bjQE-01202-00321942-00322132 very very very simple KYpS_p5bjQE-01203-00322133-00322451 and um and that that's what makes it KYpS_p5bjQE-01204-00322452-00322649 um a wonderful tool just to have in your KYpS_p5bjQE-01205-00322650-00323075 life is as an everyday person KYpS_p5bjQE-01206-00323076-00323351 thank you Tony yes

have been seeing KYpS_p5bjQE-01238-00330498-00330658 for a long time so we have very good KYpS_p5bjQE-01239-00330659-00330934 rapport and I told them that I was KYpS_p5bjQE-01240-00330935-00331139

was having trouble being in KYpS_p5bjQE-01256-00335400-00335656 front of people and talking to people KYpS_p5bjQE-01257-00335657-00335980 because of the PTSD she was experiencing KYpS_p5bjQE-01258-00335981-00336263 and she was able to do it KYpS_p5bjQE-01259-00336264-00336569 more successfully and have a lot less KYpS_p5bjQE-01260-00336570-00337001 physical reaction when she was on screen KYpS_p5bjQE-01261-00337002-00337223 and talking to people and doing KYpS_p5bjQE-01262-00337224-00337547 presentations was very very helpful for KYpS_p5bjQE-01263-00337548-00337703 her KYpS_p5bjQE-01264-00337704-00338063 yeah so thanks for sharing that KYpS_p5bjQE-01265-00338064-00338429 Carrie says you talked about phobias in KYpS_p5bjQE-01266-00338430-00338747 the three sessions will this work for KYpS_p5bjQE-01267-00338748-00339041 addictions well NLP work for addictions KYpS_p5bjQE-01268-00339042-00339401 Larry you've got a I uh I was in a KYpS_p5bjQE-01269-00339402-00339730 substance abuse treatment for 13 years KYpS_p5bjQE-01270-00339731-00339856 uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01271-00339857-00340115 and what I have to say about it is that KYpS_p5bjQE-01272-00340116-00340313 uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01273-00340314-00340534 none of my clients came into treatment KYpS_p5bjQE-01274-00340535-00340747 because they wanted to be into treatment KYpS_p5bjQE-01275-00340748-00341027 they were coming out of the prison KYpS_p5bjQE-01276-00341028-00341273 system and they were forced a couple of KYpS_p5bjQE-01277-00341274-00341729 things about addiction yes NLP can work KYpS_p5bjQE-01278-00341730-00341854 with addictions KYpS_p5bjQE-01279-00341855-00342269 it uh is not instantaneous because of KYpS_p5bjQE-01280-00342270-00342641 the fact that the the brain neurology KYpS_p5bjQE-01281-00342642-00342904 the brain itself has been changed KYpS_p5bjQE-01282-00342905-00343163 because of the uh the chemical KYpS_p5bjQE-01283-00343164-00343421 substances that they were using but if KYpS_p5bjQE-01284-00343422-00343787 somebody is wanting to to make the KYpS_p5bjQE-01285-00343788-00344051 change then NLP certainly is an KYpS_p5bjQE-01286-00344052-00344434 effective tool but I like I said I'm it KYpS_p5bjQE-01287-00344435-00344593 I KYpS_p5bjQE-01288-00344594-00344915 won't say that that you can expect the KYpS_p5bjQE-01289-00344916-00345215 one one session changed that you that KYpS_p5bjQE-01290-00345216-00345563 you often hear about with NLP uh so it KYpS_p5bjQE-01291-00345564-00345845 would take uh uh some focus and some KYpS_p5bjQE-01292-00345846-00346223 time but if the if the client is there KYpS_p5bjQE-01293-00346224-00346493 because the client wants to be there KYpS_p5bjQE-01294-00346494-00346841 uh yes NLP can help if the client is KYpS_p5bjQE-01295-00346842-00347045 there because the law says they have to KYpS_p5bjQE-01296-00347046-00347267 be there it's unlikely if it's clients KYpS_p5bjQE-01297-00347268-00347375 there because KYpS_p5bjQE-01298-00347376-00347632 spouse white kids whatever somebody else KYpS_p5bjQE-01299-00347633-00347830 wants them to change the same thing with KYpS_p5bjQE-01300-00347831-00348143 with any kind of addictions like like KYpS_p5bjQE-01301-00348144-00348499 smoking you know uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01302-00348500-00348779 if you're wanting to quit smoking you KYpS_p5bjQE-01303-00348780-00348989 can if you if your spouse wants you to KYpS_p5bjQE-01304-00348990-00349163 quit smoking it's going to be more KYpS_p5bjQE-01305-00349164-00349306 difficult doesn't mean it won't happen KYpS_p5bjQE-01306-00349307-00349510 but it's going to be more difficult so KYpS_p5bjQE-01307-00349511-00349727 but and you've had actually really good KYpS_p5bjQE-01308-00349728-00349901 success with clients around cigarette KYpS_p5bjQE-01309-00349902-00350075 smoking oh yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01310-00350076-00350184 yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01311-00350185-00350519 that's with people who came to me I love KYpS_p5bjQE-01312-00350520-00350710 to tell this story and I have permission KYpS_p5bjQE-01313-00350711-00350951 to tell this story uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01314-00350952-00351208 a woman in her what KYpS_p5bjQE-01315-00351209-00351593 50s or late 50s early 60s came to see me KYpS_p5bjQE-01316-00351594-00351689 and says KYpS_p5bjQE-01317-00351690-00351958 I want to quit smoking cigarettes but I KYpS_p5bjQE-01318-00351959-00352404 don't want to quit smoking pot KYpS_p5bjQE-01319-00352405-00352780 I took her through the process and the KYpS_p5bjQE-01320-00352781-00352943 last I knew she'd quit smoking KYpS_p5bjQE-01321-00352944-00353117 cigarettes then so far as I know I've KYpS_p5bjQE-01322-00353118-00353363 never seen it so far as I know she's KYpS_p5bjQE-01323-00353364-00353695 still smoking pot so but KYpS_p5bjQE-01324-00353696-00354034 well she was happy enough you know that KYpS_p5bjQE-01325-00354035-00354251 kind of put you into this uh you know I KYpS_p5bjQE-01326-00354252-00354403 have to decide what the legal KYpS_p5bjQE-01327-00354404-00354725 ramifications are but I have no evidence KYpS_p5bjQE-01328-00354726-00354973 that she actually did it so KYpS_p5bjQE-01329-00354974-00355228 yeah Carrie said she was thinking about KYpS_p5bjQE-01330-00355229-00355517 sugar addiction and there's some money KYpS_p5bjQE-01331-00355518-00355649 to change because can't do it alone KYpS_p5bjQE-01332-00355650-00355877 within a family so the family the rest KYpS_p5bjQE-01333-00355878-00356075 of the family maybe makes it harder to KYpS_p5bjQE-01334-00356076-00356327 do well in any of those kinds of things KYpS_p5bjQE-01335-00356328-00356530 it's uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01336-00356531-00356782 yeah but you when you begin to think KYpS_p5bjQE-01337-00356783-00356995 about it KYpS_p5bjQE-01338-00356996-00357293 uh even The Logical levels alignment KYpS_p5bjQE-01339-00357294-00357569 thing that we went through KYpS_p5bjQE-01340-00357570-00357947 uh in the second session KYpS_p5bjQE-01341-00357948-00358373 would be it can be somewhat effective uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01342-00358374-00358589 especially when you get to the points KYpS_p5bjQE-01343-00358590-00358828 about what's what's the beliefs and the KYpS_p5bjQE-01344-00358829-00359165 values about about KYpS_p5bjQE-01345-00359166-00359495 you know stop using sugar KYpS_p5bjQE-01346-00359496-00359710 what's valuable what's important about KYpS_p5bjQE-01347-00359711-00359830 that KYpS_p5bjQE-01348-00359831-00360191 also who are you what's the identity and KYpS_p5bjQE-01349-00360192-00360365 what would KYpS_p5bjQE-01350-00360366-00360737 say people tell me you know you know if KYpS_p5bjQE-01351-00360738-00361001 if you come in and you say I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-01352-00361002-00361330 uh you know I'm addicted that's an KYpS_p5bjQE-01353-00361331-00361582 identity statement KYpS_p5bjQE-01354-00361583-00362063 who would you be if you weren't KYpS_p5bjQE-01355-00362064-00362206 you know KYpS_p5bjQE-01356-00362207-00362573 people used to say I'm a smoker and I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-01357-00362574-00362741 trying to quit KYpS_p5bjQE-01358-00362742-00363023 why what do smokers do KYpS_p5bjQE-01359-00363024-00363304 Smokers smoke if that's your identity KYpS_p5bjQE-01360-00363305-00363623 it's going to be way more difficult to KYpS_p5bjQE-01361-00363624-00363934 change than if you say KYpS_p5bjQE-01362-00363935-00364228 you know I'm a I'm a person who has this KYpS_p5bjQE-01363-00364229-00364523 behavior that I want to change KYpS_p5bjQE-01364-00364524-00364913 it's not that I'm a smoker it's that I KYpS_p5bjQE-01365-00364914-00365278 smoke that's a different statement KYpS_p5bjQE-01366-00365279-00365530 and so I don't want to you know this is KYpS_p5bjQE-01367-00365531-00365758 not an NLP session and we go through the KYpS_p5bjQE-01368-00365759-00365945 logical levels or we could go through a KYpS_p5bjQE-01369-00365946-00366245 couple of other uh other processes I KYpS_p5bjQE-01370-00366246-00366413 don't want to you know that's not this KYpS_p5bjQE-01371-00366414-00366653 is not the place to do that but you KYpS_p5bjQE-01372-00366654-00366839 begin to thinking about that whole issue KYpS_p5bjQE-01373-00366840-00367145 of identity who am I who would I be if I KYpS_p5bjQE-01374-00367146-00367282 didn't KYpS_p5bjQE-01375-00367283-00367547 you know KYpS_p5bjQE-01376-00367548-00367810 um I knew a man who had migraine KYpS_p5bjQE-01377-00367811-00368080 headaches every day for for 40 years and KYpS_p5bjQE-01378-00368081-00368351 this was before I was really doing NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-01379-00368352-00368647 and and one of my NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-01380-00368648-00368878 instructors said to me KYpS_p5bjQE-01381-00368879-00369143 you know it'd be pretty difficult KYpS_p5bjQE-01382-00369144-00369430 uh uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01383-00369431-00369695 to make that change because he would not KYpS_p5bjQE-01384-00369696-00369893 know how to be KYpS_p5bjQE-01385-00369894-00370265 without it for 40 years this has shaped KYpS_p5bjQE-01386-00370266-00370793 his life and so uh it it wasn't that we KYpS_p5bjQE-01387-00370794-00371075 weren't going to do it if we you know it KYpS_p5bjQE-01388-00371076-00371363 was that you have to recognize that this KYpS_p5bjQE-01389-00371364-00371560 identity KYpS_p5bjQE-01390-00371561-00371867 and you have to get beyond the identity KYpS_p5bjQE-01391-00371868-00372263 and into the uh you know make a change KYpS_p5bjQE-01392-00372264-00372604 in identity and also a purpose what's KYpS_p5bjQE-01393-00372605-00372899 the value what's what's the mission KYpS_p5bjQE-01394-00372900-00373199 that is there as a result of this KYpS_p5bjQE-01395-00373200-00373547 identity change so or recognition KYpS_p5bjQE-01396-00373548-00373721 thank you for that question Carrie KYpS_p5bjQE-01397-00373722-00374027 Barbara has two one has NLP been KYpS_p5bjQE-01398-00374028-00374243 successful with tinnitus so this is KYpS_p5bjQE-01399-00374244-00374549 ringing in the evening tinnitus ringing KYpS_p5bjQE-01400-00374550-00374704 in the Years KYpS_p5bjQE-01401-00374705-00374969 oh KYpS_p5bjQE-01402-00374970-00375299 I I think I think it has for some people KYpS_p5bjQE-01403-00375300-00375653 I have not uh dealt with that issue so I KYpS_p5bjQE-01404-00375654-00376019 I don't have solid evidence I think I KYpS_p5bjQE-01405-00376020-00376301 remember recall reading about an instant KYpS_p5bjQE-01406-00376302-00376558 or some instances of when which that was KYpS_p5bjQE-01407-00376559-00376780 done I just I couldn't promise I KYpS_p5bjQE-01408-00376781-00377147 certainly would be willing to uh to KYpS_p5bjQE-01409-00377148-00377315 investigate KYpS_p5bjQE-01410-00377316-00377632 and see what the possibilities are KYpS_p5bjQE-01411-00377633-00377891 and then two are there caveats about KYpS_p5bjQE-01412-00377892-00378101 working with a close relative while KYpS_p5bjQE-01413-00378102-00378365 learning while in the training and using KYpS_p5bjQE-01414-00378366-00378551 a close relative KYpS_p5bjQE-01415-00378552-00378851 the nice thing about NLP is that I don't KYpS_p5bjQE-01416-00378852-00379175 have to know the content of the problem KYpS_p5bjQE-01417-00379176-00379480 so my you know Cynthia could come come KYpS_p5bjQE-01418-00379481-00379643 to me and say I've got a real problem KYpS_p5bjQE-01419-00379644-00380093 with with a certain kind of issue and I KYpS_p5bjQE-01420-00380094-00380623 I wouldn't you know and it might be me KYpS_p5bjQE-01421-00380624-00380947 I can't imagine that but KYpS_p5bjQE-01422-00380948-00381197 of course KYpS_p5bjQE-01423-00381198-00381437 but but KYpS_p5bjQE-01424-00381438-00381534 um KYpS_p5bjQE-01425-00381535-00381821 the whole idea is how does she keep that KYpS_p5bjQE-01426-00381822-00381947 in there I don't need to know what's KYpS_p5bjQE-01427-00381948-00382169 going on in order to help her make the KYpS_p5bjQE-01428-00382170-00382360 change now KYpS_p5bjQE-01429-00382361-00382595 you know I don't necessarily recommend KYpS_p5bjQE-01430-00382596-00382853 that your spouse be your you know your KYpS_p5bjQE-01431-00382854-00383182 client but certainly I it has worked KYpS_p5bjQE-01432-00383183-00383554 with my uh adult children and my and and KYpS_p5bjQE-01433-00383555-00383903 when they were teenagers uh I was able KYpS_p5bjQE-01434-00383904-00384245 to successfully use NLP with them KYpS_p5bjQE-01435-00384246-00384515 the youngest client I've ever worked KYpS_p5bjQE-01436-00384516-00384817 with in terms of uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01437-00384818-00385054 sexual abuse problem with a six-year-old KYpS_p5bjQE-01438-00385055-00385210 boy KYpS_p5bjQE-01439-00385211-00385427 took about 20 minutes KYpS_p5bjQE-01440-00385428-00385804 uh that worked very very effectively and KYpS_p5bjQE-01441-00385805-00385978 this was a boy who was no longer being KYpS_p5bjQE-01442-00385979-00386339 subjected to sexual abuse yeah right he KYpS_p5bjQE-01443-00386340-00386608 was no longer being subjected hey the KYpS_p5bjQE-01444-00386609-00386965 perpetrator had had been identified in KYpS_p5bjQE-01445-00386966-00387251 and uh whatever was going to happen to KYpS_p5bjQE-01446-00387252-00387497 him was going to happen to him but so it KYpS_p5bjQE-01447-00387498-00387863 was the not the there was a memory that KYpS_p5bjQE-01448-00387864-00387995 just a KYpS_p5bjQE-01449-00387996-00388247 very recent past experience that needed KYpS_p5bjQE-01450-00388248-00388475 to be dealt with yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01451-00388476-00388660 good I'm just going to do a quick screen KYpS_p5bjQE-01452-00388661-00388997 share here for everybody so that you can KYpS_p5bjQE-01453-00388998-00389230 just um KYpS_p5bjQE-01454-00389231-00389501 uh just take a look this is

KYpS_p5bjQE-01476-00394878-00395110 the end if you're unable to attend live KYpS_p5bjQE-01477-00395111-00395434 a moment ago Lindy had her hand up did KYpS_p5bjQE-01478-00395435-00395608 you have

KYpS_p5bjQE-01481-00396131-00396280 back to each of you to see what else you KYpS_p5bjQE-01482-00396281-00396647 want to add yeah yeah okay so I was just KYpS_p5bjQE-01483-00396648-00396725 um KYpS_p5bjQE-01484-00396726-00397006 wanted to add that in one of our small KYpS_p5bjQE-01485-00397007-00397421 group practices there was a woman who KYpS_p5bjQE-01486-00397422-00397547 brought up KYpS_p5bjQE-01487-00397548-00397882 um sugar being an issue and KYpS_p5bjQE-01488-00397883-00398065 um KYpS_p5bjQE-01489-00398066-00398315 there's a KYpS_p5bjQE-01490-00398316-00398549 we all know that we're all practicing KYpS_p5bjQE-01491-00398550-00398754 that it's we're all new KYpS_p5bjQE-01492-00398755-00399154 and all I can can't think of any time KYpS_p5bjQE-01493-00399155-00399293 where KYpS_p5bjQE-01494-00399294-00399601 there wasn't a positive outcome KYpS_p5bjQE-01495-00399602-00399989 based on a first-time practice for all KYpS_p5bjQE-01496-00399990-00400102 of us KYpS_p5bjQE-01497-00400103-00400439 and even within the demonstrations that KYpS_p5bjQE-01498-00400440-00400852 Larry did within the larger group it was KYpS_p5bjQE-01499-00400853-00401087 um we could see like we were already KYpS_p5bjQE-01500-00401088-00401410 learning and seeing the changes that KYpS_p5bjQE-01501-00401411-00401545 were happening KYpS_p5bjQE-01502-00401546-00401945 one other thing that I could add is that KYpS_p5bjQE-01503-00401946-00402269 um at some point maybe mod oh the KYpS_p5bjQE-01504-00402270-00402532 recordings I listened to every single KYpS_p5bjQE-01505-00402533-00402749 recording because KYpS_p5bjQE-01506-00402750-00403228 I found out that participating in the KYpS_p5bjQE-01507-00403229-00403487 actual online experience KYpS_p5bjQE-01508-00403488-00403865 was a one particular experience and I KYpS_p5bjQE-01509-00403866-00404093 was a different person watching the KYpS_p5bjQE-01510-00404094-00404519 recording so it was very fascinating to KYpS_p5bjQE-01511-00404520-00404908 like sense myself while in the training KYpS_p5bjQE-01512-00404909-00405052 and then KYpS_p5bjQE-01513-00405053-00405269 I had a different perspective I could KYpS_p5bjQE-01514-00405270-00405497 gain new information when I watched the KYpS_p5bjQE-01515-00405498-00405978 recordings afterwards KYpS_p5bjQE-01516-00405979-00406356 that's called dissociation KYpS_p5bjQE-01517-00406357-00406660 I thought I was in a trance on one of KYpS_p5bjQE-01518-00406661-00406787 them KYpS_p5bjQE-01519-00406788-00407256 foreign KYpS_p5bjQE-01520-00407257-00407458 that's exactly right when you're KYpS_p5bjQE-01521-00407459-00407608 watching him it's a dissociated KYpS_p5bjQE-01522-00407609-00407830 experience versus why you're actually in KYpS_p5bjQE-01523-00407831-00408017 the process yeah KYpS_p5bjQE-01524-00408018-00408263 absolutely and we spent quite a bit of KYpS_p5bjQE-01525-00408264-00408484 time dishing that out but I think I KYpS_p5bjQE-01526-00408485-00408647 think that's good I can't remember the KYpS_p5bjQE-01527-00408648-00408875 last point I was gonna make but oh I'm KYpS_p5bjQE-01528-00408876-00409151 sorry yeah well someone else is talking KYpS_p5bjQE-01529-00409152-00409415 you'll still think okay sure so yeah any KYpS_p5bjQE-01530-00409416-00409582 other last thoughts that you have that KYpS_p5bjQE-01531-00409583-00409720 you feel like for people who are KYpS_p5bjQE-01532-00409721-00409997 thinking about it yeah Johnny KYpS_p5bjQE-01533-00409997-00410303 I just wanted to share that um I have KYpS_p5bjQE-01534-00410304-00410537 been working with somebody KYpS_p5bjQE-01535-00410538-00410680 um for the past KYpS_p5bjQE-01536-00410681-00410830 six months KYpS_p5bjQE-01537-00410831-00411010 um she shared I've known her for most of KYpS_p5bjQE-01538-00411012-00411257 my life and she shared that she her KYpS_p5bjQE-01539-00411258-00411526 secret was that she was bulimic and I KYpS_p5bjQE-01540-00411527-00411922 never knew it and um and so we've had KYpS_p5bjQE-01541-00411923-00412216 really great success with that um I I KYpS_p5bjQE-01542-00412217-00412547 see her at least once a week but we talk KYpS_p5bjQE-01543-00412547-00412716 about this particular KYpS_p5bjQE-01544-00412717-00412997 subject about once a month and I just KYpS_p5bjQE-01545-00412997-00413147 asked her how she's doing with it and KYpS_p5bjQE-01546-00413147-00413453 and I can report that it's there it KYpS_p5bjQE-01547-00413454-00413807 rides a wave right but what she shared KYpS_p5bjQE-01548-00413808-00413987 with me recently is that it's getting KYpS_p5bjQE-01549-00413988-00414239 easier to get away from it because she KYpS_p5bjQE-01550-00414239-00414601 has tools foreign KYpS_p5bjQE-01551-00414602-00414905 bulimia is very very difficult very KYpS_p5bjQE-01552-00414906-00415084 resistant KYpS_p5bjQE-01553-00415085-00415391 um for for people to change so that's a KYpS_p5bjQE-01554-00415392-00416428 fantastic thing to know Tony KYpS_p5bjQE-01555-00416429-00416782 who else KYpS_p5bjQE-01556-00416783-00416932 okay KYpS_p5bjQE-01557-00416933-00417137 looks like any other comments or KYpS_p5bjQE-01558-00417138-00417389 questions no I think we're good I think KYpS_p5bjQE-01559-00417389-00417766 we're good okay so uh I just what a KYpS_p5bjQE-01560-00417767-00417976 great conversation people love these KYpS_p5bjQE-01561-00417977-00418180 conversations they always tell us how KYpS_p5bjQE-01562-00418181-00418378 much they love them because they're real KYpS_p5bjQE-01563-00418379-00418643 they're not scripted KYpS_p5bjQE-01564-00418643-00418822 um and KYpS_p5bjQE-01565-00418823-00418907 um KYpS_p5bjQE-01566-00418908-00419141 you know I think that that's that's KYpS_p5bjQE-01567-00419142-00419441 really important where I would do I do KYpS_p5bjQE-01568-00419442-00419699 want to say something about NLP itself KYpS_p5bjQE-01569-00419700-00419885 and it's kind of a bomb to put here at KYpS_p5bjQE-01570-00419885-00420131 the end but NLP when you deal with KYpS_p5bjQE-01571-00420132-00420401 things that uh help people to change KYpS_p5bjQE-01572-00420402-00420664 pretty quickly and also that are related KYpS_p5bjQE-01573-00420666-00420955 to hypnosis they can get kind of slimy KYpS_p5bjQE-01574-00420956-00421235 the way people present it can get kind KYpS_p5bjQE-01575-00421235-00421439 of slimy and so if you go out and you KYpS_p5bjQE-01576-00421439-00421709 start looking at videos on MLP you might KYpS_p5bjQE-01577-00421710-00421960 see really slimy manipulative videos KYpS_p5bjQE-01578-00421962-00422255 that is not what NLP is that is not what KYpS_p5bjQE-01579-00422256-00422464 MLB is KYpS_p5bjQE-01580-00422465-00422741 um and you can also I want to say for KYpS_p5bjQE-01581-00422742-00422987 people you can also buy NLP KYpS_p5bjQE-01582-00422988-00423353 certifications for nine bucks KYpS_p5bjQE-01583-00423354-00423670 you can also buy them for ten thousand KYpS_p5bjQE-01584-00423671-00423953 but be aware that what you've been KYpS_p5bjQE-01585-00423954-00424289 seeing with Larry these last sessions is KYpS_p5bjQE-01586-00424289-00424709 real personable it's not manipulative it KYpS_p5bjQE-01587-00424710-00425159 is a desire to help people uh with the KYpS_p5bjQE-01588-00425160-00425416 things they want to be helped with and KYpS_p5bjQE-01589-00425417-00425537 you're going to have a personal KYpS_p5bjQE-01590-00425538-00425741 experience with him and with the other KYpS_p5bjQE-01591-00425742-00426016 students you're not going to be handed KYpS_p5bjQE-01592-00426017-00426389 stuff to only study on your own even if KYpS_p5bjQE-01593-00426389-00426760 you do the video version you are still KYpS_p5bjQE-01594-00426762-00426959 going to feel involved and you will be KYpS_p5bjQE-01595-00426960-00427210 involved in the chats and you can end up KYpS_p5bjQE-01596-00427212-00427516 in the groups with other people so this KYpS_p5bjQE-01597-00427517-00427907 is a really quality experience led by a KYpS_p5bjQE-01598-00427908-00428183 very caring person who's dedicated his KYpS_p5bjQE-01599-00428184-00428393 life to helping make the world a better KYpS_p5bjQE-01600-00428393-00428591 place and KYpS_p5bjQE-01601-00428592-00428777 um and I think nobody's brought it up KYpS_p5bjQE-01602-00428778-00428903 but I'm going to bring it up that KYpS_p5bjQE-01603-00428904-00429083 because somebody usually does bring it KYpS_p5bjQE-01604-00429084-00429257 up that you know hey I mean there's some KYpS_p5bjQE-01605-00429258-00429509 kind of people out there doing NLP and KYpS_p5bjQE-01606-00429510-00429713 there are because it's not it's not not KYpS_p5bjQE-01607-00429714-00429916 regulated the way that some fields are KYpS_p5bjQE-01608-00429917-00430120 regulated so uh KYpS_p5bjQE-01609-00430121-00430505 it's a super popular and you can KYpS_p5bjQE-01610-00430506-00430699 definitely price shop KYpS_p5bjQE-01611-00430700-00431153 and and also what is required of you but KYpS_p5bjQE-01612-00431154-00431320 when you take this program with Larry KYpS_p5bjQE-01613-00431321-00431453 you're definitely going to learn things KYpS_p5bjQE-01614-00431454-00431614 for yourself and for your clients and KYpS_p5bjQE-01615-00431615-00431777 it's going to change your life yes for KYpS_p5bjQE-01616-00431778-00431945 RIA KYpS_p5bjQE-01617-00431946-00432160 yeah I wanted to mention that about the KYpS_p5bjQE-01618-00432162-00432485 cost it's actually a very reasonable KYpS_p5bjQE-01619-00432485-00432845 cost for the for the course it's I've KYpS_p5bjQE-01620-00432846-00433060 had people tell me that they've taken KYpS_p5bjQE-01621-00433062-00433360 courses paid a lot more and gotten a lot KYpS_p5bjQE-01622-00433362-00433691 less in terms of content and time with KYpS_p5bjQE-01623-00433692-00434153 Larry and video replays so it's a KYpS_p5bjQE-01624-00434154-00434381 quality it's a quality course and you KYpS_p5bjQE-01625-00434382-00434566 get a lot for the money KYpS_p5bjQE-01626-00434567-00434860 yeah the thing I had this to say about KYpS_p5bjQE-01627-00434862-00435053 some of the nine other two people I just KYpS_p5bjQE-01628-00435054-00435437 want people to know that not only do you KYpS_p5bjQE-01629-00435438-00435635 get information but you get immediate KYpS_p5bjQE-01630-00435635-00435953 practice with somebody you get immediate KYpS_p5bjQE-01631-00435954-00436259 feedback and then there's debriefing KYpS_p5bjQE-01632-00436260-00436475 afterwards to see what worked what KYpS_p5bjQE-01633-00436476-00436607 didn't if there was something that KYpS_p5bjQE-01634-00436608-00436768 didn't work and what kind of problems KYpS_p5bjQE-01635-00436769-00437051 came up so delmar's head was up and then KYpS_p5bjQE-01636-00437052-00437422 Lindy's hand

started quilting young KcEV6Iuk_8o-00003-00002385-00002744 back in the late 70s when it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00004-00002745-00003204 polyester and not very nice fabrics and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00005-00003205-00003692 I didn't do well so I put it on the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00006-00003693-00003926 table for a while and then later when KcEV6Iuk_8o-00007-00003927-00004220 the Bicentennial

KcEV6Iuk_8o-00041-00015793-00016103 little bit about red work and how it's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00042-00016104-00016431 used in quilting so this is the quilt KcEV6Iuk_8o-00043-00016432-00016859 quilts also

KcEV6Iuk_8o-00046-00017662-00017972 usually is lined this one in this case KcEV6Iuk_8o-00047-00017973-00018359 is not lined sometimes they are tied KcEV6Iuk_8o-00048-00018360-00018700 there's usually no quilting involved KcEV6Iuk_8o-00049-00018701-00019028 these were used for summer covers when KcEV6Iuk_8o-00050-00019029-00019284 it got hot and then they were put away KcEV6Iuk_8o-00051-00019285-00019475 for the winter and the winter quilts KcEV6Iuk_8o-00052-00019476-00019797 were brought out bertha made this cover KcEV6Iuk_8o-00053-00019798-00020165 from squares of bleached muslin KcEV6Iuk_8o-00054-00020166-00020612 sometimes unbleached muslin was used she KcEV6Iuk_8o-00055-00020613-00020934 I believe it's a sheet it appears to be KcEV6Iuk_8o-00056-00020935-00021387 a sheet it's been cut into 14 inch wide KcEV6Iuk_8o-00057-00021388-00021919 by 16 inch long rectangles and she used KcEV6Iuk_8o-00058-00021920-00022200 embroidered it with Turkey red cotton KcEV6Iuk_8o-00059-00022201-00022539 embroidery floss and it is stitched KcEV6Iuk_8o-00060-00022540-00022761 together the blocks are stitched KcEV6Iuk_8o-00061-00022762-00023097 together by a sewing machine now some of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00062-00023098-00023289 the blocks appear to be a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00063-00023290-00023547 original drawings that Bertha may have KcEV6Iuk_8o-00064-00023548-00023783 drawn herself because some of the blocks KcEV6Iuk_8o-00065-00023784-00024099 up there I've never seen those designs KcEV6Iuk_8o-00066-00024100-00024380 and then that blocks that have the dates KcEV6Iuk_8o-00067-00024381-00024678 and the names are definitely ones that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00068-00024679-00025109 she created and others are from KcEV6Iuk_8o-00069-00025110-00025334 commercial patterns that were published KcEV6Iuk_8o-00070-00025335-00025720 in magazines and newspapers and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00071-00025722-00026031 birthdays quilt does not I mentioned KcEV6Iuk_8o-00072-00026032-00026295 that it doesn't have the lining she may KcEV6Iuk_8o-00073-00026295-00026607 have intended it as a tablecloth they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00074-00026608-00026949 say we notice it's square but I have a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00075-00026950-00027252 feeling she used it on the bed it has a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00076-00027252-00027495 lot of wear where the threads have worn KcEV6Iuk_8o-00077-00027495-00027836 off where somebody might have sat on it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00078-00027837-00028479 but I don't know for sure it shows a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00079-00028480-00028785 quiet of quite a bit of use and was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00080-00028786-00029090 probably used as a coverlet and the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00081-00029091-00029307 final task when you make a read word KcEV6Iuk_8o-00082-00029308-00030137 read word quilt is after you sew the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00083-00030138-00030407 blocks together which she did by machine KcEV6Iuk_8o-00084-00030408-00030821 then down these seams and you could see KcEV6Iuk_8o-00085-00030822-00031167 it on the quilt you do a finish each KcEV6Iuk_8o-00086-00031168-00031362 stitch in this case I believe it's a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00087-00031363-00031946 feather stitch with that embroidery so KcEV6Iuk_8o-00088-00031947-00032286 she got it finished and she used it now KcEV6Iuk_8o-00089-00032287-00032439 I don't talk a little bit about red work KcEV6Iuk_8o-00090-00032439-00032760 before we get into genealogy clues that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00091-00032761-00033075 were in this quilt it was very popular KcEV6Iuk_8o-00092-00033076-00033531 during the Victorian age and it followed KcEV6Iuk_8o-00093-00033532-00033935 the trend of making crazy quilts and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00094-00033936-00034390 crazy quilts were irregularly shaped KcEV6Iuk_8o-00095-00034391-00034887 pieces of fabric so you know and they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00096-00034888-00035177 were stitched by hand or machine onto KcEV6Iuk_8o-00097-00035178-00035460 the back of usually muslin so it's cold KcEV6Iuk_8o-00098-00035461-00035811 foundation piecing and after your block KcEV6Iuk_8o-00099-00035812-00036137 was all stitched up then you embellished KcEV6Iuk_8o-00100-00036138-00036533 it and the Victorians used snippets and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00101-00036534-00036690 scraps for KcEV6Iuk_8o-00102-00036691-00037102 dressmaker dressmaking or from the old KcEV6Iuk_8o-00103-00037103-00037303 some of the clothes that they had KcEV6Iuk_8o-00104-00037304-00037561 discarded but most of them were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00105-00037562-00037804 clippings because they were new when KcEV6Iuk_8o-00106-00037805-00038140 they used them and then they made these KcEV6Iuk_8o-00107-00038141-00038415 blocks this is one block that was made KcEV6Iuk_8o-00108-00038416-00039040 by a lady from Shady Grove and she dated KcEV6Iuk_8o-00109-00039041-00039189 it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00110-00039190-00039667 that's her initials Van Dyne I think KcEV6Iuk_8o-00111-00039668-00040180 it's her name van dance dance van zant's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00112-00040181-00040810 and she made it in 1998 and so this is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00113-00040811-00041095 just one block now if you wanted to make KcEV6Iuk_8o-00114-00041096-00041350 a whole crazy quilt the next thing you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00115-00041351-00041773 did was stitch your blocks together and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00116-00041774-00042240 in this case we see the block here it's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00117-00042241-00042558 a diamond shape meaning that this filter KcEV6Iuk_8o-00118-00042559-00042927 set her quilt on point rather than what KcEV6Iuk_8o-00119-00042928-00043340 Bertha did putting everything on square KcEV6Iuk_8o-00120-00043341-00043705 this is the crazy quilt that was gifted KcEV6Iuk_8o-00121-00043706-00044146 to Ginger Rogers in the 1930s it belongs KcEV6Iuk_8o-00122-00044147-00044449 to this group and it's currently been KcEV6Iuk_8o-00123-00044450-00044752 loaned to the Aurora colony Historical KcEV6Iuk_8o-00124-00044753-00045093 Society Museum because they're having KcEV6Iuk_8o-00125-00045094-00045451 their 45th

KcEV6Iuk_8o-00133-00047893-00048154 tour the whole Museum as you go to the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00134-00048155-00048670 quilt show and their theme this year is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00135-00048671-00049006 crazy about quilts so that's why it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00136-00049007-00049486 taken up there on loan usually these KcEV6Iuk_8o-00137-00049487-00049790 quilts crazy quilts were not this large KcEV6Iuk_8o-00138-00049791-00050053 they usually were quite KcEV6Iuk_8o-00139-00050054-00050476 like a throw so they would be like that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00140-00050477-00050926 sighs this one was it's very well made KcEV6Iuk_8o-00141-00050927-00051366 it's in very good condition and is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00142-00051367-00051673 unusual in the way that it has been KcEV6Iuk_8o-00143-00051674-00051883 preserved over the years so ginger took KcEV6Iuk_8o-00144-00051884-00052860 good care of it so red work was popular KcEV6Iuk_8o-00145-00052861-00053221 after this this is another close-up of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00146-00053222-00053454 the Ginger Rogers quilt where you could KcEV6Iuk_8o-00147-00053455-00053871 see the elaborate fabric and embroidery KcEV6Iuk_8o-00148-00053872-00054542 so here we have red work it kind of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00149-00054544-00055003 lapped over crazy quilty and red work KcEV6Iuk_8o-00150-00055004-00055471 kind of slowly made their trend change KcEV6Iuk_8o-00151-00055472-00056241 over and it started about 1880 and it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00152-00056242-00056466 featured again bleach or unbleached KcEV6Iuk_8o-00153-00056467-00056803 muslin for the backing and you see over KcEV6Iuk_8o-00154-00056804-00057415 here I have some samples of crazy of red KcEV6Iuk_8o-00155-00057416-00057705 work and this is a modern sample of red KcEV6Iuk_8o-00156-00057707-00058126 work it's still very popular so again KcEV6Iuk_8o-00157-00058127-00058347 they were embroidered with turkey red KcEV6Iuk_8o-00158-00058348-00058576 embroidery cotton embroidery floss KcEV6Iuk_8o-00159-00058577-00058897 it was colorfast and it did not fade KcEV6Iuk_8o-00160-00058898-00059205 when these quilts were washed that was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00161-00059207-00059608 very important and sometimes they used KcEV6Iuk_8o-00162-00059609-00059734 blue and Burgess KcEV6Iuk_8o-00163-00059735-00060211 floss and sometimes black now a folksy KcEV6Iuk_8o-00164-00060212-00060583 design this case sunbonnet sue was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00165-00060584-00060829 transferred to the muslin and in it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00166-00060829-00061201 embroidered with a simple stitch a back KcEV6Iuk_8o-00167-00061202-00061573 stitch an outline stitch or a stem KcEV6Iuk_8o-00168-00061574-00061852 stitch and I think these are a stem KcEV6Iuk_8o-00169-00061853-00062344 stitch KcEV6Iuk_8o-00170-00062345-00062627 now it was important when you embroider KcEV6Iuk_8o-00171-00062628-00063142 red work that the back of the red work KcEV6Iuk_8o-00172-00063144-00063350 was supposed to be very neat this one KcEV6Iuk_8o-00173-00063351-00063596 isn't the neatest but you would want to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00174-00063597-00063848 hide your knots and you wouldn't want to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00175-00063849-00064289 carry your threads over like they've KcEV6Iuk_8o-00176-00064290-00064598 done here because it would show through KcEV6Iuk_8o-00177-00064599-00064940 on the front so generally the back red KcEV6Iuk_8o-00178-00064941-00065479 work is was really neat neatly done the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00179-00065480-00065744 embroidery stitch was simple enough that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00180-00065745-00066041 it could be taught to a child it wasn't KcEV6Iuk_8o-00181-00066042-00066328 as elaborate or as difficult as it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00182-00066329-00066710 doing the crazy quilts and the designs KcEV6Iuk_8o-00183-00066711-00067198 were usually of animals flowers toys KcEV6Iuk_8o-00184-00067199-00067724 landscapes sometimes famous people those KcEV6Iuk_8o-00185-00067725-00068084 famous landmarks but quite often they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00186-00068085-00068294 were of children like we're seeing on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00187-00068295-00069058 these samples and here's another one KcEV6Iuk_8o-00188-00069059-00069332 this is one that you would see quite KcEV6Iuk_8o-00189-00069333-00069803 often they were often called pity KcEV6Iuk_8o-00190-00069804-00070073 squares and women would decorate KcEV6Iuk_8o-00191-00070074-00070334 everything in the house the back of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00192-00070335-00070691 their wash basin splashes and their KcEV6Iuk_8o-00193-00070692-00071021 towels the collars on their children's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00194-00071022-00071330 clothing and they took their tasks KcEV6Iuk_8o-00195-00071331-00071783 really seriously so when women get KcEV6Iuk_8o-00196-00071784-00072263 involved in a task seriously KcEV6Iuk_8o-00197-00072264-00072512 they drive the industry the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00198-00072513-00072695 manufacturing industry and the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00199-00072696-00072947 publication industry and the commercial KcEV6Iuk_8o-00200-00072948-00073328 enterprises so that's what happened with KcEV6Iuk_8o-00201-00073329-00073646 red work cottage and industry even got KcEV6Iuk_8o-00202-00073647-00074494 involved and they did it by stamping KcEV6Iuk_8o-00203-00074495-00074906 these blocks and so the newspapers would KcEV6Iuk_8o-00204-00074907-00075236 publish articles of how you know with a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00205-00075237-00075530 pattern on it that you could mark KcEV6Iuk_8o-00206-00075531-00075950 and the ones over here forgot to tell us KcEV6Iuk_8o-00207-00075951-00076280 right oops how did it once that's good KcEV6Iuk_8o-00208-00076281-00076454 well leave I know the best yeah I was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00209-00076455-00076745 wrong certificate was filled out my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00210-00076746-00076994 brother after your family ad mortem put KcEV6Iuk_8o-00211-00076995-00077207 out by but you often happen there we're KcEV6Iuk_8o-00212-00077208-00077489 priests out and they say oh I'm their KcEV6Iuk_8o-00213-00077490-00077804 quilt is my actual birthday and they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00214-00077805-00078005 were I figured that she was my own at KcEV6Iuk_8o-00215-00078006-00078347 Woolworth's one that's were which is on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00216-00078348-00078548 the panel here to rather than it and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00217-00078549-00078746 they like the quilt she wouldn't know KcEV6Iuk_8o-00218-00078747-00079931 what priests and wrong date on and and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00219-00079932-00080168 it's still popular today but not like it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00220-00080169-00080431 was back then KcEV6Iuk_8o-00221-00080432-00080798 so women began designing and stamping KcEV6Iuk_8o-00222-00080799-00081068 their own blocks to sell to their KcEV6Iuk_8o-00223-00081069-00081425 friends at fairs or in booths that sort KcEV6Iuk_8o-00224-00081426-00081719 of thing newspapers of magnet magazines KcEV6Iuk_8o-00225-00081720-00082076 would publish how to make a finished KcEV6Iuk_8o-00226-00082077-00082478 product merchants like if you could go KcEV6Iuk_8o-00227-00082479-00082889 to your country store and ask for a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00228-00082890-00083156 penny square the merchants would have KcEV6Iuk_8o-00229-00083157-00083603 the squares in the back pre-cut and you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00230-00083604-00083849 could either while you wait you would KcEV6Iuk_8o-00231-00083850-00084125 pick a design and he would go back and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00232-00084126-00084452 stamp the design probably with chalk I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00233-00084453-00084677 really don't know how they stamp the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00234-00084678-00084959 design and then he'd bring it back and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00235-00084960-00085118 you pay him the penny and you take it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00236-00085119-00085463 home and embroider it so that's how you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00237-00085464-00085993 know it got going in small towns so KcEV6Iuk_8o-00238-00085994-00086246 hence they got the name penny squares KcEV6Iuk_8o-00239-00086247-00086534 and then when you got enough of them you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00240-00086535-00086764 usually stitch them together without KcEV6Iuk_8o-00241-00086765-00087307 sashing and what I mean by that is this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00242-00087308-00087731 this quilt right here has Sashi between KcEV6Iuk_8o-00243-00087732-00088151 the blocks this one does not the blocks KcEV6Iuk_8o-00244-00088152-00088474 were butted up against each other and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00245-00088475-00088862 almost all the very few of them have set KcEV6Iuk_8o-00246-00088863-00089090 she the ones that were made then they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00247-00089091-00089675 were very simple so aunt Bertha also my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00248-00089676-00089939 great-great aunt Murtha also made she KcEV6Iuk_8o-00249-00089940-00090317 made a crazy quilt with my grandmother KcEV6Iuk_8o-00250-00090318-00090692 but it got burned in my my aunt's fire KcEV6Iuk_8o-00251-00090693-00090974 in gold beach so it doesn't exist KcEV6Iuk_8o-00252-00090975-00091334 anymore and this is a pieced quilt that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00253-00091335-00091589 she put together just the top and it's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00254-00091590-00091958 about a twin size and I knew Bertha and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00255-00091959-00092327 she would run it wasn't really an inn KcEV6Iuk_8o-00256-00092328-00092540 but she didn't she and her husband never KcEV6Iuk_8o-00257-00092541-00092801 had any children so they always kept KcEV6Iuk_8o-00258-00092802-00093107 their guest room full and she had a twin KcEV6Iuk_8o-00259-00093108-00093419 one room that had twin beds and I can KcEV6Iuk_8o-00260-00093420-00093647 picture this one was probably going to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00261-00093648-00094112 be intended for that so it's unfinished KcEV6Iuk_8o-00262-00094113-00094637 this one is hand pieced so and you're KcEV6Iuk_8o-00263-00094638-00094844 welcome to touch it afterwards want to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00264-00094845-00095018 come up and look at the back to see how KcEV6Iuk_8o-00265-00095019-00095198 that's pieced together it wasn't pasted KcEV6Iuk_8o-00266-00095199-00095516 on machine but I believe the sashing KcEV6Iuk_8o-00267-00095517-00095936 just the blocks were hand pieced and the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00268-00095937-00096776 sashing was added by machine so our KcEV6Iuk_8o-00269-00096777-00097114 story begins our story about Bertha KcEV6Iuk_8o-00270-00097115-00097625 begins in Eagle Rock Virginia where she KcEV6Iuk_8o-00271-00097626-00098293 was born she was born in Botetourt KcEV6Iuk_8o-00272-00098294-00098558 County Virginia some of you may know KcEV6Iuk_8o-00273-00098559-00098777 that pronounced a different way how many KcEV6Iuk_8o-00274-00098778-00099002 of you have heard bought a tort KcEV6Iuk_8o-00275-00099003-00099380 pronounced bata talked that's the way my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00276-00099381-00099593 grandmother pronounced it but I'm gonna KcEV6Iuk_8o-00277-00099594-00099800 do Botetourt because it's kind of the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00278-00099801-00100175 way it sounds and this was a small town KcEV6Iuk_8o-00279-00100176-00100586 located along the James River and that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00280-00100587-00100907 County was up in North the northwestern KcEV6Iuk_8o-00281-00100908-00101246 part of Virginia and she was born here KcEV6Iuk_8o-00282-00101247-00101825 on March 25th 1880 I know that from my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00283-00101826-00102050 family records which includes an oral KcEV6Iuk_8o-00284-00102051-00102185 history KcEV6Iuk_8o-00285-00102186-00102416 and the family pages filled in with KcEV6Iuk_8o-00286-00102417-00102703 important dates from the Custer family KcEV6Iuk_8o-00287-00102704-00103180 Bible which unfortunately also burned in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00288-00103181-00103528 the fire but we have photographs and and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00289-00103529-00103973 that's helpful and that Bible belonged KcEV6Iuk_8o-00290-00103974-00104244 to Bertha's mother her name was Nancy KcEV6Iuk_8o-00291-00104245-00104690 Kessler Custer and she carefully KcEV6Iuk_8o-00292-00104691-00104972 recorded in the registration pages of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00293-00104973-00105188 the Bible the names of the births of her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00294-00105189-00105484 children deaths weddings that sort of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00295-00105485-00105883 thing so that's one record that many KcEV6Iuk_8o-00296-00105884-00106429 genealogists used to still it fine to do KcEV6Iuk_8o-00297-00106430-00106889 their research I also know when she was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00298-00106890-00106931 born KcEV6Iuk_8o-00299-00106932-00107359 because Bertha wrote a memoir about the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00300-00107360-00107783 her her family of 13 she called the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00301-00107783-00108176 original 13 so I have that and I also KcEV6Iuk_8o-00302-00108177-00108991 discovered that she put it on the quilt KcEV6Iuk_8o-00303-00108992-00109388 behind me her birth date another form KcEV6Iuk_8o-00304-00109389-00109628 another picture of Eagle Rock KcEV6Iuk_8o-00305-00109629-00109913 it was named you see the James River KcEV6Iuk_8o-00306-00109914-00110015 running there KcEV6Iuk_8o-00307-00110016-00110334 it was named Eagle Rock because of that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00308-00110335-00110818 huge mountain behind it is limestone and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00309-00110819-00111176 so they would dig limestone out of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00310-00111177-00111403 quería out of this mountain or KcEV6Iuk_8o-00311-00111404-00111808 surrounding an area and they set up KcEV6Iuk_8o-00312-00111809-00112181 little kilns all over the town of Eagle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00313-00112182-00112558 Rock and smelted is that the word they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00314-00112559-00112891 got the limestone out and so when I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00315-00112892-00113306 visited there in the 1990s a lot of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00316-00113307-00113576 these backyard kilns were still there KcEV6Iuk_8o-00317-00113577-00113843 and each one would have a little plaque KcEV6Iuk_8o-00318-00113844-00114173 up by it saying whose which family ran KcEV6Iuk_8o-00319-00114174-00114626 it and that sort of thing and they think KcEV6Iuk_8o-00320-00114627-00115060 they called that mountain Mount Eagle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00321-00115061-00115204 there you go KcEV6Iuk_8o-00322-00115205-00115758 so she was born there and I think I've KcEV6Iuk_8o-00323-00115758-00116175 got another picture yes that's when my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00324-00116176-00116472 mother visited Eagle Rock in the 1970s KcEV6Iuk_8o-00325-00116473-00116826 and the railroad track runs right down KcEV6Iuk_8o-00326-00116827-00117024 beside the river KcEV6Iuk_8o-00327-00117025-00117393 the town is strung out right beside the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00328-00117394-00117881 river following the railroad track and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00329-00117882-00118248 then the rest of the town goes up hill KcEV6Iuk_8o-00330-00118249-00118425 because this part of the country is very KcEV6Iuk_8o-00331-00118426-00118874 hilly and I think when I was there in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00332-00118875-00119364 you know early 2000s I just felt like as KcEV6Iuk_8o-00333-00119365-00119571 I walked down the streets that my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00334-00119572-00119889 grandmother and aunt my aunt Bertha if KcEV6Iuk_8o-00335-00119890-00120114 they had been with me they would have KcEV6Iuk_8o-00336-00120115-00120315 pointed to the little white clapboard KcEV6Iuk_8o-00337-00120316-00120710 houses and said so-and-so lived here and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00338-00120711-00121050 so-and-so lived there it hadn't really KcEV6Iuk_8o-00339-00121051-00121283 changed much it was very quite and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00340-00121284-00121529 unique and I got to visit the cemetery KcEV6Iuk_8o-00341-00121530-00122247 when I was there so back behind me on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00342-00122248-00122445 Bertha's quilt you see that she put KcEV6Iuk_8o-00343-00122446-00122763 dates and I was able to look up many of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00344-00122764-00123024 the dates there's names back there and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00345-00123025-00123276 at first I thought these blocks were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00346-00123277-00123576 made by the people who would name are KcEV6Iuk_8o-00347-00123577-00123878 named on the quilt who in Eagle Rock KcEV6Iuk_8o-00348-00123879-00124089 that they were part of the granges and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00349-00124090-00124328 that maybe they made a block and gave it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00350-00124329-00124623 to Bertha when she moved away from Eagle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00351-00124624-00124934 Rock to Spokane Washington KcEV6Iuk_8o-00352-00124935-00125364 in 1902 but then I noticed that the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00353-00125365-00125721 dates were older so I began to realize KcEV6Iuk_8o-00354-00125722-00125978 that no this quilt was put together KcEV6Iuk_8o-00355-00125979-00126438 after she made her move in 1902 and it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00356-00126439-00126782 was probably assembled between 1905 and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00357-00126783-00127344 1915 but it was her red work quilt that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00358-00127345-00127529 caught my attention and I started KcEV6Iuk_8o-00359-00127530-00127743 comparing the dates on it with what I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00360-00127744-00128064 knew about my aunt and some of the dates KcEV6Iuk_8o-00361-00128065-00128346 didn't make any sense so I did some more KcEV6Iuk_8o-00362-00128347-00128496 research on that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00363-00128497-00128841 there are names and dates on this quilt KcEV6Iuk_8o-00364-00128842-00129461 that I looked up this one this block KcEV6Iuk_8o-00365-00129463-00129718 thinking they were from Virginia they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00366-00129719-00130014 were not they were from her new home in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00367-00130015-00130335 Spokane and they were neighbors they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00368-00130336-00130576 were a Swedish family and they became KcEV6Iuk_8o-00369-00130577-00130924 very very close and for some reason she KcEV6Iuk_8o-00370-00130925-00131263 wanted them on that quilt and those may KcEV6Iuk_8o-00371-00131264-00131593 be signatures are they the people may KcEV6Iuk_8o-00372-00131594-00131830 have written their own names on there or KcEV6Iuk_8o-00373-00131831-00132177 they are she might have done it herself KcEV6Iuk_8o-00374-00132178-00132580 but what we know about building a quilt KcEV6Iuk_8o-00375-00132581-00133219 is that you take pieces and you prepare KcEV6Iuk_8o-00376-00133220-00133918 them and sew them together and building KcEV6Iuk_8o-00377-00133919-00134182 a family history is just like making a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00378-00134183-00134587 quilt you have bits and pieces all kinds KcEV6Iuk_8o-00379-00134588-00134956 of records books Maps photographs KcEV6Iuk_8o-00380-00134957-00135538 diaries letters and you get them KcEV6Iuk_8o-00381-00135539-00135952 together and compile them into what you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00382-00135953-00136333 call family sheets or profile sheets is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00383-00136334-00136624 that the correct name and one of these KcEV6Iuk_8o-00384-00136625-00137250 things here yeah that that's just hers KcEV6Iuk_8o-00385-00137251-00137686 her page so this page gives and it's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00386-00137687-00137932 hard to see I'm sorry about that gives KcEV6Iuk_8o-00387-00137933-00138160 all the information whoops we went too KcEV6Iuk_8o-00388-00138161-00138625 far there let's go back that's basil's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00389-00138626-00138949 it gives all the information about birth KcEV6Iuk_8o-00390-00138950-00139252 though where she was born the date Eagle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00391-00139253-00139519 Rock death and then down this row here KcEV6Iuk_8o-00392-00139520-00139735 is all the things that happened to her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00393-00139736-00139993 along the way when her dad died what her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00394-00139994-00140272 brother died whatever and then over here KcEV6Iuk_8o-00395-00140273-00140557 you have the sources that you found to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00396-00140558-00140890 back those facts up so we've got one for KcEV6Iuk_8o-00397-00140891-00141324 Bertha and notice she was born in 1880 KcEV6Iuk_8o-00398-00141325-00141655 but I didn't notice that on the quilt KcEV6Iuk_8o-00399-00141656-00141809 she puts her birth date KcEV6Iuk_8o-00400-00141810-00142454 as 1881 so I'll get back to that but KcEV6Iuk_8o-00401-00142455-00142709 just remember I said that but all the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00402-00142710-00143081 records have her in 1880 and then she KcEV6Iuk_8o-00403-00143082-00143729 married a man named basil and he is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00404-00143730-00144038 right here what you can't see but you'll KcEV6Iuk_8o-00405-00144039-00144329 see later his last name was Solander and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00406-00144330-00144551 he's on the quilts all under the name so KcEV6Iuk_8o-00407-00144552-00144850 lenders on the quilt and so they got KcEV6Iuk_8o-00408-00144851-00145103 embroidered into the quilt also that was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00409-00145104-00145670 an important time for her so we also KcEV6Iuk_8o-00410-00145671-00146270 have a sheet for her husband basil who KcEV6Iuk_8o-00411-00146271-00146474 was a few years younger than she was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00412-00146475-00146906 and kind of a handsome young man and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00413-00146907-00147185 then you could make these sheets for KcEV6Iuk_8o-00414-00147186-00147398 each member of Bertha's family she was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00415-00147399-00147644 the baby of the family there were eleven KcEV6Iuk_8o-00416-00147645-00147968 siblings most of her interestingly KcEV6Iuk_8o-00417-00147969-00148187 enough most of her brothers and sisters KcEV6Iuk_8o-00418-00148188-00148904 were born during the Civil War and here KcEV6Iuk_8o-00419-00148905-00149363 is one of the birth records of Bertha I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00420-00149364-00149882 think it was probably put together later KcEV6Iuk_8o-00421-00149883-00150128 because I've got I see there's a date on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00422-00150129-00150434 here down at the bottom that it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00423-00150435-00150920 filed between 1880 and 1898 and the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00424-00150921-00151112 other thing that's interesting about KcEV6Iuk_8o-00425-00151113-00151475 this is that the information came from KcEV6Iuk_8o-00426-00151476-00151775 John W Custer who was Bertha's oldest KcEV6Iuk_8o-00427-00151776-00152045 brother and he was the one that stayed KcEV6Iuk_8o-00428-00152046-00152315 back in Virginia and he probably KcEV6Iuk_8o-00429-00152316-00152684 provided birth information on many of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00430-00152685-00152948 his siblings but there's so many things KcEV6Iuk_8o-00431-00152949-00153209 you can learn from a birth certificate KcEV6Iuk_8o-00432-00153210-00153557 or a death certificate and here we learn KcEV6Iuk_8o-00433-00153558-00153950 we know she was born in that County this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00434-00153951-00154322 is Commonwealth of Virginia the gave her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00435-00154323-00155010 birth birth as 1880 which is wrong KcEV6Iuk_8o-00436-00155011-00155393 according to her information up here and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00437-00155394-00155791 her firm named her the a stood for AM KcEV6Iuk_8o-00438-00155792-00156159 Bertha and Custer female she was born KcEV6Iuk_8o-00439-00156160-00156459 alive we have her father's name John KcEV6Iuk_8o-00440-00156460-00156722 Custer we have her father's occupation KcEV6Iuk_8o-00441-00156723-00157293 pretty cool he was a Miller I thought he KcEV6Iuk_8o-00442-00157294-00157625 did like flour milling where he grind KcEV6Iuk_8o-00443-00157626-00158078 wheat he was a sawmill man and I learned KcEV6Iuk_8o-00444-00158079-00158436 that by reading her memoir he lived on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00445-00158437-00158733 the Allens branch of the James River so KcEV6Iuk_8o-00446-00158734-00158925 they lived a little bit out of town and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00447-00158926-00159329 her mother's name was Nancy custard they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00448-00159330-00159624 didn't give her maiden name here but it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00449-00159625-00159948 is Kessler and her brother gave the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00450-00159949-00160248 information so these types of documents KcEV6Iuk_8o-00451-00160249-00160644 provide a lot of clues where you can go KcEV6Iuk_8o-00452-00160645-00160956 and research it out and find other KcEV6Iuk_8o-00453-00160957-00161184 documents that support what's on there KcEV6Iuk_8o-00454-00161185-00161513 and sometimes they have mistakes because KcEV6Iuk_8o-00455-00161514-00161708 they're only as good as the person KcEV6Iuk_8o-00456-00161709-00162282 filling them out now the next thing that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00457-00162283-00162582 happens when you're researching a person KcEV6Iuk_8o-00458-00162583-00162981 is you can fill out again this is kind KcEV6Iuk_8o-00459-00162982-00163310 of blurry but you get the idea a family KcEV6Iuk_8o-00460-00163311-00163719 ancestor chart so this one works this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00461-00163720-00163985 way this is Bertha and her information KcEV6Iuk_8o-00462-00163986-00164450 that's her parents John Custer and hers KcEV6Iuk_8o-00463-00164451-00164963 mother Nancy Kessler and this whole line KcEV6Iuk_8o-00464-00164964-00165587 here are her gran-gran KcEV6Iuk_8o-00465-00165588-00165774 grandparents yeah there you got four KcEV6Iuk_8o-00466-00165775-00166032 grandparents notice you double your KcEV6Iuk_8o-00467-00166033-00166212 grandparents every generation do you go KcEV6Iuk_8o-00468-00166213-00166269 back KcEV6Iuk_8o-00469-00166270-00166521 so you've got eight great-grandparents KcEV6Iuk_8o-00470-00166522-00166812 and then that's all I have of her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00471-00166813-00167043 great-great grandparents but what I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00472-00167044-00167409 found remarkable about printing this out KcEV6Iuk_8o-00473-00167410-00167832 was so many of Bertha's ancestors were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00474-00167833-00168249 born and raised and died right in bada KcEV6Iuk_8o-00475-00168250-00168334 turq KcEV6Iuk_8o-00476-00168335-00168778 or nearby in the state of Virginia we KcEV6Iuk_8o-00477-00168779-00169189 get back here we find some other names KcEV6Iuk_8o-00478-00169190-00169516 Maryland did some other names but they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00479-00169517-00169708 pretty much were there for a long long KcEV6Iuk_8o-00480-00169709-00170446 time so we got that filled in and then I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00481-00170447-00170659 have I'm lucky enough to have Bertha's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00482-00170660-00171073 wedding photo and when we're they were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00483-00171074-00171463 married notice that they were not KcEV6Iuk_8o-00484-00171464-00171763 married in Virginia they were married in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00485-00171764-00172198 Burlington Des Moines Iowa and it's on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00486-00172199-00172447 the quilt she embroidered it on the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00487-00172448-00172900 quilt and this was a big puzzle to me KcEV6Iuk_8o-00488-00172901-00173350 because all I knew was the family moved KcEV6Iuk_8o-00489-00173351-00173746 from Virginia to Spokane around 1900 KcEV6Iuk_8o-00490-00173747-00174214 between 1900 and 1905 so I did not KcEV6Iuk_8o-00491-00174215-00174597 understand why they were in Burlington I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00492-00174598-00175267 did look up the marriage record and it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00493-00175268-00175540 is a you can go into courthouses and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00494-00175541-00175849 find these books are places like the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00495-00175850-00176089 genealogical library here where KcEV6Iuk_8o-00496-00176090-00176422 information on marriages and deaths are KcEV6Iuk_8o-00497-00176423-00176680 recorded the old county courthouses used KcEV6Iuk_8o-00498-00176681-00177022 to record them when my mother was doing KcEV6Iuk_8o-00499-00177023-00177340 research she could go to the courthouse KcEV6Iuk_8o-00500-00177341-00177732 and find these books and we learned that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00501-00177733-00178054 Bertha's extended family where were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00502-00178055-00178387 attending the wedding and that basil her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00503-00178388-00178636 husband's extended family were also KcEV6Iuk_8o-00504-00178637-00178891 attending the wedding and after the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00505-00178892-00178930 wedding KcEV6Iuk_8o-00506-00178931-00179296 Basil's parents went back to Virginia KcEV6Iuk_8o-00507-00179297-00179458 and I found him in the census records KcEV6Iuk_8o-00508-00179459-00179911 there but all of Bertha's families were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00509-00179912-00180598 in Spokane Washington by 1905 and they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00510-00180599-00180868 may not have come out all the same now KcEV6Iuk_8o-00511-00180869-00181126 my mother told me that they came by KcEV6Iuk_8o-00512-00181127-00181678 railroad so I googled Burlington KcEV6Iuk_8o-00513-00181679-00182015 Northern Railroad and learned that it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00514-00182016-00182447 was a hub and another hub was Spokane KcEV6Iuk_8o-00515-00182448-00182957 Washington so that's what took them to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00516-00182958-00183161 Burlington they must have had a big KcEV6Iuk_8o-00517-00183162-00183440 celebration I'm guessing I'm still KcEV6Iuk_8o-00518-00183441-00183725 looking into that and then they parted KcEV6Iuk_8o-00519-00183726-00184070 ways got on the train and they got as KcEV6Iuk_8o-00520-00184071-00184424 far as Spokane a town called Hilliard KcEV6Iuk_8o-00521-00184425-00184772 which was a railroad town and that's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00522-00184773-00185147 where they stayed and they lived in that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00523-00185148-00185932 part so let's see what we have next here KcEV6Iuk_8o-00524-00185933-00186266 photographs are another wonderful way to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00525-00186267-00186593 learn about your family another piece of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00526-00186594-00186788 information that you've been making KcEV6Iuk_8o-00527-00186789-00187211 stitch into your family history and this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00528-00187212-00187814 one is of their home taken oops I always KcEV6Iuk_8o-00529-00187815-00188434 push the wrong button there oh there we KcEV6Iuk_8o-00530-00188435-00188885 1894 so that's quite a bit before Bertha KcEV6Iuk_8o-00531-00188886-00189029 got married in 1902 KcEV6Iuk_8o-00532-00189030-00189578 there's Bertha she is about 15 years old KcEV6Iuk_8o-00533-00189579-00189941 she looks older she was a very tall lady KcEV6Iuk_8o-00534-00189942-00190301 these are her siblings there and she was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00535-00190302-00190541 a youngest so these are older her oldest KcEV6Iuk_8o-00536-00190542-00190832 older sister here her husband all the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00537-00190833-00191269 sisters three children my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00538-00191270-00191537 great-grandmother her name is Lizzie KcEV6Iuk_8o-00539-00191538-00192008 Elizabeth Bertha's older sister my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00540-00192009-00192299 grandmother so I was able to kind of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00541-00192300-00192551 date this picture by the age of my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00542-00192552-00192782 grandmother I know when she was born KcEV6Iuk_8o-00543-00192783-00193163 my grandmother's brother I know knew KcEV6Iuk_8o-00544-00193164-00193487 these people very well and my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00545-00193488-00194014 great-grandfather Lafayette Harlow so KcEV6Iuk_8o-00546-00194015-00194609 Lizzie Custer married a Harlem and this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00547-00194610-00194897 man was visiting he was a cousin from KcEV6Iuk_8o-00548-00194898-00194996 another state KcEV6Iuk_8o-00549-00194997-00195149 he didn't want to be in the photograph KcEV6Iuk_8o-00550-00195150-00195497 and he looks kind of sheepish the lady KcEV6Iuk_8o-00551-00195498-00195878 in the middle is Bertha's mother ma'am KcEV6Iuk_8o-00552-00195879-00196277 Nancy they called her nanny and she's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00553-00196278-00196535 holding one of her grandchildren this is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00554-00196536-00197057 her home after her husband died and it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00555-00197058-00197432 was located again really close to Eagle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00556-00197433-00197776 Rock I visited the land where it was and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00557-00197777-00198146 so I wondered what happened to this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00558-00198147-00198389 family between the time this photograph KcEV6Iuk_8o-00559-00198390-00198916 was taken and that they made their move KcEV6Iuk_8o-00560-00198917-00199400 because in the 1900 census there all KcEV6Iuk_8o-00561-00199401-00199810 most of them are in Virginia and in the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00562-00199811-00200540 1910 they're in Spokane and we see basal KcEV6Iuk_8o-00563-00200541-00200867 cylinder and Bertha cylinder living on KcEV6Iuk_8o-00564-00200868-00201302 that says GLaDOS Avenue and next door to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00565-00201303-00201575 them are Nancy Bertha's mother and two KcEV6Iuk_8o-00566-00201576-00201908 of her unmarried siblings Jacob and Nana KcEV6Iuk_8o-00567-00201909-00202256 Belle and they are living next door and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00568-00202257-00202553 not too far away were my grandparents KcEV6Iuk_8o-00569-00202554-00202898 and they stayed together in in Hillyard KcEV6Iuk_8o-00570-00202899-00203287 in Spokane so census records are also KcEV6Iuk_8o-00571-00203288-00203540 another way of finding family KcEV6Iuk_8o-00572-00203541-00204023 information by 1906 I have found almost KcEV6Iuk_8o-00573-00204024-00204251 everyone and her family had moved to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00574-00204252-00204494 Washington except for her oldest brother KcEV6Iuk_8o-00575-00204495-00204989 and he stayed back in Eagle Rock and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00576-00204990-00205317 this is a postcard from Eagle Rock that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00577-00205319-00205646 was in my mother's collection again you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00578-00205646-00205867 see exactly how I'm telling you the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00579-00205869-00206071 railroad track ran straight down by the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00580-00206073-00206419 river the river is over on the left and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00581-00206421-00206737 the town just strung right along there KcEV6Iuk_8o-00582-00206738-00207032 so he stayed there and that picture was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00583-00207033-00207362 taken probably around the time that the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00584-00207363-00207629 family moved from Eagle Rock KcEV6Iuk_8o-00585-00207630-00207938 now the brother the stayed back was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00586-00207939-00208321 named Jim this is the brother KcEV6Iuk_8o-00587-00208323-00208633 that gave the birth information from KcEV6Iuk_8o-00588-00208634-00208952 that birth certificate and this is their KcEV6Iuk_8o-00589-00208953-00209106 beautiful home KcEV6Iuk_8o-00590-00209107-00209429 and it was on the Allens branch a little KcEV6Iuk_8o-00591-00209430-00209702 bit outside of Eagle Rock and I visit KcEV6Iuk_8o-00592-00209703-00210029 when I visited it in 2000 it was for KcEV6Iuk_8o-00593-00210030-00210406 sale and then it was empty and I wish I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00594-00210407-00210641 would have had time to contact a realtor KcEV6Iuk_8o-00595-00210642-00210938 and go inside the home but my mother KcEV6Iuk_8o-00596-00210939-00211198 visited it several times with her mother KcEV6Iuk_8o-00597-00211200-00211601 and her sisters and brothers and it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00598-00211602-00211882 never left the family this family always KcEV6Iuk_8o-00599-00211883-00212031 lived there KcEV6Iuk_8o-00600-00212032-00212569 this is mrs. Hamilton Custer she's his KcEV6Iuk_8o-00601-00212571-00212942 wife these are their children one of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00602-00212942-00213341 these boys got married the other three KcEV6Iuk_8o-00603-00213342-00213631 children did not get married and they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00604-00213632-00213878 are the ones that stayed in that home KcEV6Iuk_8o-00605-00213879-00214192 until the day they died and when it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00606-00214194-00214423 finally the home finally got put up for KcEV6Iuk_8o-00607-00214425-00214466 sale KcEV6Iuk_8o-00608-00214467-00214694 and my mother always loved visiting KcEV6Iuk_8o-00609-00214694-00215416 these people and in in the land records KcEV6Iuk_8o-00610-00215417-00215864 we found my mother and I found a sale KcEV6Iuk_8o-00611-00215865-00216409 that was dated July 5th 1888 and it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00612-00216410-00216730 recorded in Finn castle which is the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00613-00216731-00217315 court the county seat of Botetourt and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00614-00217316-00217628 it was a sale between John and Nancy KcEV6Iuk_8o-00615-00217629-00217981 Custer those are Bertha's parents they KcEV6Iuk_8o-00616-00217982-00218269 sold a tract of land located on the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00617-00218271-00218533 Allens branch which is a tributary of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00618-00218534-00218878 the James River to John II Custer for KcEV6Iuk_8o-00619-00218879-00219217 150 dollars it I don't know how much KcEV6Iuk_8o-00620-00219219-00219542 land it was but it was part of the land KcEV6Iuk_8o-00621-00219542-00219823 and he is the one that built this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00622-00219825-00220130 beautiful house I would guess sometime KcEV6Iuk_8o-00623-00220131-00220448 around 1900 after the family moved he KcEV6Iuk_8o-00624-00220448-00220783 but built a big house and he also ran KcEV6Iuk_8o-00625-00220784-00221096 the family business which was a sawmill KcEV6Iuk_8o-00626-00221096-00221453 business KcEV6Iuk_8o-00627-00221454-00221866 there's another child in this picture KcEV6Iuk_8o-00628-00221867-00222230 that died in 1917 KcEV6Iuk_8o-00629-00222231-00222823 so the first picture KcEV6Iuk_8o-00630-00222823-00223142 this was taken later or earlier and he KcEV6Iuk_8o-00631-00223142-00223427 was gone he wasn't in the family by then KcEV6Iuk_8o-00632-00223428-00223766 but this is a mourning a funeral picture KcEV6Iuk_8o-00633-00223767-00224141 of the family and I was able to tell KcEV6Iuk_8o-00634-00224142-00224467 that because one of the daughters has a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00635-00224469-00224798 rip in her dress you know you rent your KcEV6Iuk_8o-00636-00224798-00225017 clothes and you rip your clothes and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00637-00225017-00225644 everybody's somber and in dark and so in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00638-00225644-00225973 my mom's collection I found an obituary KcEV6Iuk_8o-00639-00225973-00226262 another piece of information we used to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00640-00226263-00226538 build family histories the death of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00641-00226539-00226829 Charlie Custer his name was Charles Adam KcEV6Iuk_8o-00642-00226830-00227246 Custer he was 11 years old you read KcEV6Iuk_8o-00643-00227246-00227692 through the bitchu re he died working in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00644-00227694-00228062 the sawmill got caught in a belt it was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00645-00228063-00228608 instant but terribly unfortunate and it KcEV6Iuk_8o-00646-00228609-00228842 upset even though it happened in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00647-00228842-00229100 Virginia of course the family in Spokane KcEV6Iuk_8o-00648-00229101-00229541 was very very upset about it so we have KcEV6Iuk_8o-00649-00229542-00229805 a newspaper clipping another piece of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00650-00229806-00230054 our family history that you can research KcEV6Iuk_8o-00651-00230055-00230387 and get get information out of these and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00652-00230388-00230711 then we've got a cemetery record that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00653-00230712-00231011 shows where this one I think came from KcEV6Iuk_8o-00654-00231012-00231557 find out find find a grave and where KcEV6Iuk_8o-00655-00231558-00231923 he's buried and what cemetery he's in so KcEV6Iuk_8o-00656-00231923-00232226 that was really sad but again it caused KcEV6Iuk_8o-00657-00232227-00232508 them to save this information which I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00658-00232509-00232798 could put together later and research KcEV6Iuk_8o-00659-00232798-00233192 this is his death certificate remember I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00660-00233192-00233426 told you that these certificates tell a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00661-00233427-00233903 lot of information he was in fin castle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00662-00233904-00234113 that was the closest town or this was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00663-00234114-00234455 the county seat and he lived in Eagle KcEV6Iuk_8o-00664-00234456-00234632 Rock that's his name KcEV6Iuk_8o-00665-00234633-00234762 Charles

when he died and his death date is here KcEV6Iuk_8o-00669-00235867-00236333 and then it gives the parents names KcEV6Iuk_8o-00670-00236334-00236739 james edward custer of which county and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00671-00236740-00237144 i think her name was Mary Ellen Hamilton KcEV6Iuk_8o-00672-00237144-00237339 that was her maiden name so you get a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00673-00237340-00237540 maiden name there off that certificate KcEV6Iuk_8o-00674-00237541-00237956 and where she lived and very sad down KcEV6Iuk_8o-00675-00237957-00238244 here is James Edward Custer the father KcEV6Iuk_8o-00676-00238246-00238467 of this child that had to fill out the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00677-00238467-00238821 inform the information and then this is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00678-00238821-00239219 called about the death how they died and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00679-00239221-00239582 down here is usually the funeral home KcEV6Iuk_8o-00680-00239583-00239871 and sometimes you even get on death KcEV6Iuk_8o-00681-00239871-00240090 certificates a cemetery where they're KcEV6Iuk_8o-00682-00240091-00241022 buried so these are very valuable now KcEV6Iuk_8o-00683-00241023-00241365 let's see what's next here oh these are KcEV6Iuk_8o-00684-00241366-00241676 the family Bible records that I told you KcEV6Iuk_8o-00685-00241677-00242139 the Bible got burned so before the fire KcEV6Iuk_8o-00686-00242140-00242426 I had written to my aunt Jo who lived in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00687-00242427-00242723 gold Beach and said she had the Bible KcEV6Iuk_8o-00688-00242724-00242991 and I said I wanted her to take photos KcEV6Iuk_8o-00689-00242992-00243182 but she ended up writing me a letter KcEV6Iuk_8o-00690-00243183-00243473 that had the information about the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00691-00243474-00243707 family and what was written in the Bible KcEV6Iuk_8o-00692-00243708-00243987 so I was really glad that that happened KcEV6Iuk_8o-00693-00243988-00244244 because we do now have that letter that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00694-00244246-00244590 has that information but family bibles KcEV6Iuk_8o-00695-00244591-00244927 are very important and interviews KcEV6Iuk_8o-00696-00244928-00245174 personal interviews like I talked to my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00697-00245175-00245459 aunt about the Bible and asked her what KcEV6Iuk_8o-00698-00245460-00246082 she remembered about the family this is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00699-00246083-00246513 the memoir that Bertha wrote it's called KcEV6Iuk_8o-00700-00246514-00246816 the original 13 she wrote it in the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00701-00246817-00247433 1940s she died in 1964 and her great KcEV6Iuk_8o-00702-00247434-00247712 niece Virginia Brown was the person that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00703-00247713-00247888 typed the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00704-00247889-00248065 handwritten records up and put them in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00705-00248066-00248367 these folders and this folder belongs to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00706-00248369-00248746 Boyd who's was her nephew and one of my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00707-00248746-00249096 favorite great uncles and distributed KcEV6Iuk_8o-00708-00249098-00249492 them to the family she had a lot of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00709-00249494-00249909 information in in this memoir she even KcEV6Iuk_8o-00710-00249910-00250150 had a picture of the Natural Bridge KcEV6Iuk_8o-00711-00250151-00250479 because her her sister Lizzie her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00712-00250480-00250612 favorite sister Lizzie and my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00713-00250613-00250850 great-grandmother was married there and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00714-00250851-00251323 here we know that the names of the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00715-00251323-00251569 children she's down here these people KcEV6Iuk_8o-00716-00251569-00251877 died about the same time in a diphtheria KcEV6Iuk_8o-00717-00251878-00252021 epidemic KcEV6Iuk_8o-00718-00252023-00252330 she even put the names of people that KcEV6Iuk_8o-00719-00252331-00252732 did not marry now this was not unusual I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00720-00252733-00252988 understand that children that were born KcEV6Iuk_8o-00721-00252989-00253359 during the Civil War now Bertha was born KcEV6Iuk_8o-00722-00253360-00253891 in 1881 but these guys in here were all KcEV6Iuk_8o-00723-00253892-00254298 born during the Civil War it is not KcEV6Iuk_8o-00724-00254300-00254502 unusual for those children that were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00725-00254503-00254751 born during those years not to marry to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00726-00254752-00255210 stay together in the family and also I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00727-00255211-00255504 learned from the more that her father KcEV6Iuk_8o-00728-00255505-00255858 although he lived in Virginia was a KcEV6Iuk_8o-00729-00255859-00256398 union sympathizer and he had to move KcEV6Iuk_8o-00730-00256400-00256778 away and leave his family because KcEV6Iuk_8o-00731-00256779-00257099 Virginia declared that they were KcEV6Iuk_8o-00732-00257100-00257614 Confederate soldiers so the family did KcEV6Iuk_8o-00733-00257615-00257844 go through some trauma during that time KcEV6Iuk_8o-00734-00257846-00257944 too but Bertha KcEV6Iuk_8o-00735-00257944-00258135 never really knew it because she was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00736-00258136-00258681 born later this is a postcard that was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00737-00258682-00258967 in my family's possession letters and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00738-00258967-00259141 postcards are another way of finding KcEV6Iuk_8o-00739-00259142-00259551 family history she told a sad story in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00740-00259552-00259891 the memoir about her sister who was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00741-00259892-00260244 forbidden from marrying her first cousin KcEV6Iuk_8o-00742-00260246-00261019 Jonathan and and Jonathan kept would KcEV6Iuk_8o-00743-00261019-00261175 write to her and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00744-00261176-00261364 you would write back and sometimes the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00745-00261365-00261736 letters would get stolen our hidden are KcEV6Iuk_8o-00746-00261737-00261988 not given to her and Jonathan's writing KcEV6Iuk_8o-00747-00261989-00262480 their say you ask why I I I haven't KcEV6Iuk_8o-00748-00262481-00262702 answered any of your letters it says I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00749-00262703-00262951 answered every single one of them so she KcEV6Iuk_8o-00750-00262952-00263256 didn't get them but she got this one and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00751-00263257-00263593 so that's in the memoir a little little KcEV6Iuk_8o-00752-00263594-00264288 sad story that goes along this is Bertha KcEV6Iuk_8o-00753-00264289-00264721 and her husband basil and her mother KcEV6Iuk_8o-00754-00264722-00265117 Nancy in their home about 1915 in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00755-00265118-00265531 Spokane this is one of the ladies that's KcEV6Iuk_8o-00756-00265532-00265804 on this quilt

KcEV6Iuk_8o-00759-00266489-00266698 name is on the back of the picture and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00760-00266699-00267007 this is a nephew she had a lot of people KcEV6Iuk_8o-00761-00267008-00267271 and of course the family dog is in the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00762-00267272-00267826 picture this is my grandmother Lizzie KcEV6Iuk_8o-00763-00267827-00268213 and Lafayette and their home in Hilliard KcEV6Iuk_8o-00764-00268214-00268897 not too far from where Bertha lived this KcEV6Iuk_8o-00765-00268898-00269418 is a four generation photograph KcEV6Iuk_8o-00766-00269419-00270019 Bertha's mom here

the elevator was so scary and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00783-00275752-00276095 looking not being able to see above the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00784-00276096-00276322 countertop when the transition KcEV6Iuk_8o-00785-00276323-00276593 transaction was made but this is how I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00786-00276594-00276853 remember Bertha I did get to go to her KcEV6Iuk_8o-00787-00276854-00277166 funeral but oh

another KcEV6Iuk_8o-00799-00281340-00281584 brother older brother was murdered in KcEV6Iuk_8o-00800-00281585-00282074 1905 Washington the state of Washington KcEV6Iuk_8o-00801-00282075-00282491 during these years was having labor KcEV6Iuk_8o-00802-00282492-00282788 union disputes and it got kind of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00803-00282789-00283073 violent and although there's no I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00804-00283074-00283316 haven't yet discovered any records I KcEV6Iuk_8o-00805-00283317-00283673 suspect that this particular death and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00806-00283674-00284077 maybe this one they worked as railroad KcEV6Iuk_8o-00807-00284078-00284288 people they were called blacksmiths or KcEV6Iuk_8o-00808-00284289-00284570 carpenters that they may have been KcEV6Iuk_8o-00809-00284571-00284822 associated with that that's for me to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00810-00284823-00285358 discover notice that Bertha's stone does KcEV6Iuk_8o-00811-00285359-00285862 not have her date on it but she was KcEV6Iuk_8o-00812-00285863-00286220 basal died first so that's my next KcEV6Iuk_8o-00813-00286221-00286504 project is to my cousin and I are going KcEV6Iuk_8o-00814-00286505-00286807 to get together and get that that date KcEV6Iuk_8o-00815-00286808-00287233 on there and it's possible that somebody KcEV6Iuk_8o-00816-00287234-00287492 already did that and this is an old KcEV6Iuk_8o-00817-00287493-00287659 photograph KcEV6Iuk_8o-00818-00287660-00287916 but I have to find her death certificate KcEV6Iuk_8o-00819-00287917-00288369 and then we'll take a trip up there and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00820-00288370-00289295 take care of that for Bertha yes at home KcEV6Iuk_8o-00821-00289296-00289644 yes and I just haven't done it I didn't KcEV6Iuk_8o-00822-00289645-00289824 realize that I didn't have her death KcEV6Iuk_8o-00823-00289825-00290088 certificate I want to tell you a little KcEV6Iuk_8o-00824-00290089-00290340 bit about this photograph this is the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00825-00290341-00290585 Harlow cabin on Elliott Creek California KcEV6Iuk_8o-00826-00290586-00290757 in Northern California KcEV6Iuk_8o-00827-00290758-00291224 it is a double story log cabin built by KcEV6Iuk_8o-00828-00291225-00291345 Lizzie KcEV6Iuk_8o-00829-00291346-00291750 my great-grandfather Lafayette and we KcEV6Iuk_8o-00830-00291751-00292020 had a family reunion up there not long KcEV6Iuk_8o-00831-00292021-00292334 ago and I I just thought it was kind of KcEV6Iuk_8o-00832-00292335-00292604 cool that you know you can connect KcEV6Iuk_8o-00833-00292605-00292980 modern times with old times and why is KcEV6Iuk_8o-00834-00292981-00293282 it in Northern California you might ask KcEV6Iuk_8o-00835-00293283-00293562 because they were in Spokane for a brief KcEV6Iuk_8o-00836-00293563-00293922 time in the 1920s my mother's family KcEV6Iuk_8o-00837-00293923-00294410 lived in Ashland and the grandparents KcEV6Iuk_8o-00838-00294411-00294758 moved with them to Ashland and my KcEV6Iuk_8o-00839-00294759-00295047 grandfather was he had built log cabins KcEV6Iuk_8o-00840-00295048-00295371 before and he and his son my grandfather KcEV6Iuk_8o-00841-00295372-00295590 must my great-grandfather must have been KcEV6Iuk_8o-00842-00295591-00295958 in his 60s and his son who was probably KcEV6Iuk_8o-00843-00295959-00296382 20 or 30 built this cabin up in the KcEV6Iuk_8o-00844-00296383-00296679 Siskiyou s-- and ran a placer gold mine KcEV6Iuk_8o-00845-00296680-00297027 up there and in the summer my mom and KcEV6Iuk_8o-00846-00297028-00297279 her siblings got to spend their summers KcEV6Iuk_8o-00847-00297280-00297537 up there and then about the time my mom KcEV6Iuk_8o-00848-00297538-00297795 graduated from high school for whatever KcEV6Iuk_8o-00849-00297796-00298068 reason the whole family moved back to KcEV6Iuk_8o-00850-00298069-00298407 Spokane but that's just a little Side KcEV6Iuk_8o-00851-00298408-00298862 Story so this concludes my presentation KcEV6Iuk_8o-00852-00298863-00299268 on Bertha my great-great aunt and how

watching a gameplay video and the KehGgicDFRY-00018-00003768-00004022 gameplay sound is too loud or the guy or KehGgicDFRY-00019-00004023-00004238 the gal speaking over top of the game is KehGgicDFRY-00020-00004239-00004486 too quiet and the music's too loud and KehGgicDFRY-00021-00004487-00004679 vice versa or they've got multiple KehGgicDFRY-00022-00004680-00004815 people on the call and one of them is KehGgicDFRY-00023-00004816-00004983 just blowing out loud and the other one KehGgicDFRY-00024-00004984-00005143 you can barely hear we're going to sort KehGgicDFRY-00025-00005144-00005391 all that out using audacity let's get KehGgicDFRY-00026-00005392-00005567 right into this all right before we KehGgicDFRY-00027-00005568-00005735 start getting into audacity i do want to KehGgicDFRY-00028-00005736-00005870 remind you that you will need a KehGgicDFRY-00029-00005871-00006031 microphone KehGgicDFRY-00030-00006032-00006238 for it so there are two basically two KehGgicDFRY-00031-00006239-00006399 types of mics that are usable one of KehGgicDFRY-00032-00006400-00006614 them is a desktop mic of course KehGgicDFRY-00033-00006615-00006863 you know blue yetis blue snowballs all KehGgicDFRY-00034-00006864-00007039 those different types and then there's KehGgicDFRY-00035-00007040-00007263 headset mics if you've got a desktop mic KehGgicDFRY-00036-00007264-00007446 i do recommend keeping the microphone KehGgicDFRY-00037-00007447-00007798 about nine inches away from your mouth KehGgicDFRY-00038-00007800-00008046 and yeah i apparently according to my KehGgicDFRY-00039-00008047-00008231 girlfriend i don't know how long nine KehGgicDFRY-00040-00008232-00008391 inches is so you better measure it KehGgicDFRY-00041-00008392-00008607 because i've been rounding up sorry KehGgicDFRY-00042-00008608-00008863 about that KehGgicDFRY-00043-00008864-00009078 and if you've got a headset microphone KehGgicDFRY-00044-00009079-00009223 well you basically want to keep it as KehGgicDFRY-00045-00009224-00009374 far away from your mouth as possible KehGgicDFRY-00046-00009375-00009583 just to keep the pops down and KehGgicDFRY-00047-00009584-00009791 any crackling and any loud KehGgicDFRY-00048-00009792-00009895 jarring KehGgicDFRY-00049-00009896-00010039 yeah cracks and i'm going to show you KehGgicDFRY-00050-00010040-00010191 how to take those out so with that KehGgicDFRY-00051-00010192-00010391 preamble out of the way let's get into KehGgicDFRY-00052-00010392-00010655 audacity all right

KehGgicDFRY-00069-00013880-00014119 all right here we go i have a copy of KehGgicDFRY-00070-00014119-00014407 audacity open in front of me and yeah it KehGgicDFRY-00071-00014408-00014558 looks a little overwhelming and scary KehGgicDFRY-00072-00014559-00014775 but i promise you it's very easy to use KehGgicDFRY-00073-00014776-00014951 once you get the hang of it all right KehGgicDFRY-00074-00014952-00015063 the first thing you want to do before KehGgicDFRY-00075-00015063-00015215 you go any further is you want to make KehGgicDFRY-00076-00015216-00015399 sure you've got the correct microphone KehGgicDFRY-00077-00015400-00015638 selected this is often a problem for KehGgicDFRY-00078-00015640-00015775 people because if they don't have it KehGgicDFRY-00079-00015776-00016022 selected it often has the default KehGgicDFRY-00080-00016023-00016215 built-in microphone to your laptop for KehGgicDFRY-00081-00016216-00016511 example and it's horrible so again make KehGgicDFRY-00082-00016512-00016622 sure that you have the correct one KehGgicDFRY-00083-00016623-00016799 selected i'm using a blue snowball for

KehGgicDFRY-00087-00017320-00017479 all right now that we've got the correct KehGgicDFRY-00088-00017480-00017767 microphone selected to record you just KehGgicDFRY-00089-00017768-00018014 basically want to left click on this red KehGgicDFRY-00090-00018015-00018311 button this is r for record and as we do KehGgicDFRY-00091-00018312-00018511 that you're going to see it going here KehGgicDFRY-00092-00018512-00018807 and as i talk louder and quieter you're KehGgicDFRY-00093-00018808-00019022 going to see the waveform adjust up and KehGgicDFRY-00094-00019023-00019255 down that's exactly what we want it KehGgicDFRY-00095-00019256-00019486 looks good alright so that is all you KehGgicDFRY-00096-00019487-00019630 got to do and if you want to stop it

KehGgicDFRY-00102-00020551-00020719 with another program in case you're KehGgicDFRY-00103-00020720-00020871 wondering how i can keep talking and KehGgicDFRY-00104-00020872-00021094 this isn't recording but now let's get KehGgicDFRY-00105-00021095-00021327 into some professionalism this in a lot KehGgicDFRY-00106-00021328-00021494 of cases if you have a perfect KehGgicDFRY-00107-00021495-00021630 environment you're in a quiet KehGgicDFRY-00108-00021631-00021855 environment with no distracting sounds KehGgicDFRY-00109-00021856-00021983 and you've got a great

export as mp3 if you're if you're in a KehGgicDFRY-00113-00022656-00022783 good spot you don't want to make any KehGgicDFRY-00114-00022784-00022943 changes you got your settings right go KehGgicDFRY-00115-00022944-00023103 ahead and do that that's all you need to KehGgicDFRY-00116-00023104-00023303 do but there are a few things you can do KehGgicDFRY-00117-00023304-00023511 to make audio a little more professional KehGgicDFRY-00118-00023512-00023655 and i'm going to show you the top three KehGgicDFRY-00119-00023656-00023830 so let's get right into those all right KehGgicDFRY-00120-00023831-00023975 the first one we want to do is we want KehGgicDFRY-00121-00023976-00024222 to get rid of any noise reduction so any KehGgicDFRY-00122-00024223-00024494 buzzing anything that sounds just KehGgicDFRY-00123-00024495-00024735 distracting let's get rid of it in my KehGgicDFRY-00124-00024736-00025086 video i have the mic close to my laptop KehGgicDFRY-00125-00025087-00025311 and my laptop fan is going a mile a KehGgicDFRY-00126-00025312-00025542 minute so it's really really buzzing so KehGgicDFRY-00127-00025543-00025711 i want to get rid of the laptop fan for KehGgicDFRY-00128-00025712-00025950 me so how do i do that simple i'm going KehGgicDFRY-00129-00025951-00026134 to go ahead and select some of this KehGgicDFRY-00130-00026135-00026351 audio here i just left click on the KehGgicDFRY-00131-00026352-00026614 timeline and i just dragged it back and KehGgicDFRY-00132-00026616-00026783 this allows me to select that part of KehGgicDFRY-00133-00026783-00026999 the video now what i'm doing is i'm KehGgicDFRY-00134-00027000-00027279 basically selecting a time period a KehGgicDFRY-00135-00027280-00027502 period of time where there's nothing no KehGgicDFRY-00136-00027504-00027735 audio at all it's just a background fan KehGgicDFRY-00137-00027736-00027943 i'm not talking so once you've got that KehGgicDFRY-00138-00027944-00028270 selected you want to go now up to effect KehGgicDFRY-00139-00028272-00028495 and we're going to go ahead and do some KehGgicDFRY-00140-00028495-00028727 noise reduction left click now on noise KehGgicDFRY-00141-00028727-00028831 reduction KehGgicDFRY-00142-00028832-00029007 when you do that you'll have a few KehGgicDFRY-00143-00029008-00029151 options the first thing you need to do KehGgicDFRY-00144-00029152-00029407 is left click on get noise profile KehGgicDFRY-00145-00029408-00029623 click on it so now we have the noise KehGgicDFRY-00146-00029624-00029918 profile basically we've isolated the KehGgicDFRY-00147-00029919-00030158 sound fan or the background humming KehGgicDFRY-00148-00030160-00030446 sound okay that's what we wanted now the KehGgicDFRY-00149-00030447-00030727 next step is you want to hit control a KehGgicDFRY-00150-00030727-00030870 command a if you're on a mac but you're KehGgicDFRY-00151-00030872-00031127 probably not so control a and that is KehGgicDFRY-00152-00031127-00031311 select all because what we want to do is KehGgicDFRY-00153-00031312-00031567 we want to apply noise reduction to KehGgicDFRY-00154-00031568-00031774 everything so we have the profile now KehGgicDFRY-00155-00031775-00031935 we're going to apply it KehGgicDFRY-00156-00031936-00032143 go ahead and click on effect KehGgicDFRY-00157-00032144-00032367 go back to noise reduction and instead KehGgicDFRY-00158-00032368-00032623 of collect selecting get noise profile KehGgicDFRY-00159-00032624-00032862 just left click on ok KehGgicDFRY-00160-00032863-00032990 when you do that you're going to see KehGgicDFRY-00161-00032991-00033111 here that at the beginning of the KehGgicDFRY-00162-00033112-00033318 timeline it went from a little bit of a KehGgicDFRY-00163-00033319-00033607 buzzy waveform to basically a flat line KehGgicDFRY-00164-00033608-00033831 we have isolated the background noise KehGgicDFRY-00165-00033832-00034062 and taken it out that is the first step KehGgicDFRY-00166-00034063-00034231 and it's very very important especially KehGgicDFRY-00167-00034232-00034431 if you don't have optimal conditions KehGgicDFRY-00168-00034432-00034615 okay let's get into step two all right KehGgicDFRY-00169-00034616-00034774 everybody the second step is the KehGgicDFRY-00170-00034775-00034943 compressor step basically we want to KehGgicDFRY-00171-00034944-00035159 take out some of the highs and the lows KehGgicDFRY-00172-00035160-00035335 it's very very easy to do and it adds KehGgicDFRY-00173-00035336-00035646 another level of professionalism to the KehGgicDFRY-00174-00035647-00035823 audio so what you do is you basically KehGgicDFRY-00175-00035824-00036055 click anywhere and click command or KehGgicDFRY-00176-00036056-00036295 control a control a if you're on a pc KehGgicDFRY-00177-00036296-00036462 once you've selected the timeline head KehGgicDFRY-00178-00036463-00036687 up here to effect and drop it down and KehGgicDFRY-00179-00036688-00036855 you're gonna see compressor KehGgicDFRY-00180-00036856-00037030 now under compressor you have a few KehGgicDFRY-00181-00037031-00037239 options they're pretty good right out of KehGgicDFRY-00182-00037240-00037462 the gate i like to increase the ratio KehGgicDFRY-00183-00037463-00037679 from the default two to one i increase KehGgicDFRY-00184-00037680-00037871 it up to about yeah let's go to six to KehGgicDFRY-00185-00037872-00038062 one so we're basically just going ahead KehGgicDFRY-00186-00038063-00038302 and taking out the highs and lows and KehGgicDFRY-00187-00038303-00038518 normalizing the audio left click on okay KehGgicDFRY-00188-00038519-00038767 and watch the wave or the the KehGgicDFRY-00189-00038768-00038999 the waveform KehGgicDFRY-00190-00039000-00039167 see how it adjusted up a little bit KehGgicDFRY-00191-00039168-00039318 basically we're just going ahead and KehGgicDFRY-00192-00039319-00039439 making the audio KehGgicDFRY-00193-00039440-00039599 a little bit better KehGgicDFRY-00194-00039600-00039759 alright the third and final step again KehGgicDFRY-00195-00039760-00039895 making sure you've selected everything KehGgicDFRY-00196-00039896-00040118 in the

KfWNLch77I0-00275-00071165-00071374 one of the major reasons for the decline KfWNLch77I0-00276-00071375-00071584 of the parallel cinema in India is that KfWNLch77I0-00277-00071585-00071857 the FFC or the National Film Development KfWNLch77I0-00278-00071858-00072079 Corporation of India did not seriously KfWNLch77I0-00279-00072080-00072282 look into the distribution or exhibition KfWNLch77I0-00280-00072283-00072571 of these films the mainstream exhibition KfWNLch77I0-00281-00072572-00072751 system did not pick up these films KfWNLch77I0-00282-00072752-00072922 because these films did not have the KfWNLch77I0-00283-00072923-00073117 so-called entertainment value that they KfWNLch77I0-00284-00073118-00073204 were looking for KfWNLch77I0-00285-00073205-00073417 there was a talk of building small KfWNLch77I0-00286-00073418-00073618 theaters for such film but there was no KfWNLch77I0-00287-00073619-00073804 serious attempt made to realize this KfWNLch77I0-00288-00073805-00074086 alternative mode of exhibition thus it KfWNLch77I0-00289-00074087-00074314 left to a few film societies to screen KfWNLch77I0-00290-00074315-00074470 these film that too on a single KfWNLch77I0-00291-00074471-00074728 screening basis the advent of television KfWNLch77I0-00292-00074729-00074995 and its popularity saw the film society KfWNLch77I0-00293-00074996-00075238 movement decline gradually the KfWNLch77I0-00294-00075239-00075424 government reduced the patronage of such KfWNLch77I0-00295-00075425-00075649 films for they had only unseen films to KfWNLch77I0-00296-00075650-00075907 be shown on their balance sheets the KfWNLch77I0-00297-00075908-00076120 parallel cinema in its true sense was KfWNLch77I0-00298-00076121-00076297 always on the fringes of the mainstream KfWNLch77I0-00299-00076298-00076570 cinema since most of the parallel cinema KfWNLch77I0-00300-00076571-00076789 rejected the regressive worldview that KfWNLch77I0-00301-00076790-00076966 was largely embodied the mainstream KfWNLch77I0-00302-00076967-00077164 cinema they never found acceptance in

KfWNLch77I0-00324-00082592-00082837 as Mumbai noir urban films reflecting KfWNLch77I0-00325-00082838-00083037 social problems in the city of Mumbai KfWNLch77I0-00326-00083038-00083323 the introduction

careful of what you KhukYEdC5Rg-00207-00043696-00043895 mean about like if there's anything KhukYEdC5Rg-00208-00043896-00044023 just like we kind of preach when we KhukYEdC5Rg-00209-00044024-00044183 teach just overall social media you want KhukYEdC5Rg-00210-00044184-00044246 to avoid KhukYEdC5Rg-00211-00044247-00044495 polarizing things like you don't want to KhukYEdC5Rg-00212-00044496-00044639

this and KhukYEdC5Rg-00221-00046159-00046295 and i'm just going into some of my KhukYEdC5Rg-00222-00046296-00046479 favorites here um KhukYEdC5Rg-00223-00046480-00046686 that stand out in terms of the industry KhukYEdC5Rg-00224-00046687-00046871 so when that one agent in your office KhukYEdC5Rg-00225-00046872-00047071 really works hard for the head shot KhukYEdC5Rg-00226-00047072-00047318 um i mean

but there are some that are not KhukYEdC5Rg-00247-00052600-00052815 necessarily as KhukYEdC5Rg-00248-00052816-00052999 timeless and i kind of want to show you KhukYEdC5Rg-00249-00053000-00053238 that

KhukYEdC5Rg-00507-00110200-00110358 just as good to find them KhukYEdC5Rg-00508-00110359-00110710 is giphy um giphy is a little to me a KhukYEdC5Rg-00509-00110711-00110871 little bit better of a search engine KhukYEdC5Rg-00510-00110872-00111086 and a little bit better of a display of KhukYEdC5Rg-00511-00111088-00111175 things KhukYEdC5Rg-00512-00111176-00111407 uh this is better for building

KhukYEdC5Rg-00567-00125703-00125854 while any of these questions come in KhukYEdC5Rg-00568-00125855-00126247 that i can't see in my KhukYEdC5Rg-00569-00126248-00126583 um KhukYEdC5Rg-00570-00126583-00127023 along with your text here KhukYEdC5Rg-00571-00127024-00127271 on the right hand side you'll notice KhukYEdC5Rg-00572-00127272-00127447 that there is an outline KhukYEdC5Rg-00573-00127448-00127639 and a font color as well as all the KhukYEdC5Rg-00574-00127640-00127799 settings KhukYEdC5Rg-00575-00127800-00128166 so you can change font shadow KhukYEdC5Rg-00576-00128167-00128478 use all caps bold italic KhukYEdC5Rg-00577-00128479-00128743 center align vertical line right and you KhukYEdC5Rg-00578-00128744-00128919 can apply these across the board if you KhukYEdC5Rg-00579-00128920-00129047 want to KhukYEdC5Rg-00580-00129048-00129310 so sometimes these will be all centered KhukYEdC5Rg-00581-00129311-00129590 etc now keep in mind KhukYEdC5Rg-00582-00129591-00129854 how they set these up to begin with KhukYEdC5Rg-00583-00129855-00129958 where the KhukYEdC5Rg-00584-00129959-00130310 the text is located how big the text is KhukYEdC5Rg-00585-00130311-00130614 etc is all KhukYEdC5Rg-00586-00130615-00130886 based on the format of that meme to KhukYEdC5Rg-00587-00130888-00130999 start with KhukYEdC5Rg-00588-00131000-00131302 so they pretty much structure it for you KhukYEdC5Rg-00589-00131303-00131527 when when people create these to make KhukYEdC5Rg-00590-00131528-00131702 sure that it matches up KhukYEdC5Rg-00591-00131703-00132054 with the style etc of um KhukYEdC5Rg-00592-00132055-00132383 of what's out there so i wouldn't say KhukYEdC5Rg-00593-00132384-00132566 i'd be wary to mix it up too much or KhukYEdC5Rg-00594-00132567-00132759 change it too too much KhukYEdC5Rg-00595-00132760-00132911 without knowing the structure of that KhukYEdC5Rg-00596-00132912-00133119 meme KhukYEdC5Rg-00597-00133120-00133431 anything you want to add greg KhukYEdC5Rg-00598-00133432-00133607 no i think you that's a good point to KhukYEdC5Rg-00599-00133608-00133743 make i mean when you especially some of KhukYEdC5Rg-00600-00133744-00133919 these designs like the ones like the KhukYEdC5Rg-00601-00133920-00134039 chat bubbles KhukYEdC5Rg-00602-00134040-00134183 if you try to mess with the fonts you're KhukYEdC5Rg-00603-00134184-00134327 just going to make it look horrible yeah KhukYEdC5Rg-00604-00134328-00134359 and KhukYEdC5Rg-00605-00134360-00134599 and sometimes you find memes where the KhukYEdC5Rg-00606-00134600-00134814 text is so small it's impossible to read KhukYEdC5Rg-00607-00134815-00134935 and it's useless KhukYEdC5Rg-00608-00134936-00135143 so like alex said you really want to KhukYEdC5Rg-00609-00135144-00135343 stick to the guidelines or like what KhukYEdC5Rg-00610-00135344-00135447 he's calling the KhukYEdC5Rg-00611-00135448-00135766 um you know kind of the format of it and KhukYEdC5Rg-00612-00135767-00135878 if you're going to change the font maybe KhukYEdC5Rg-00613-00135879-00136047 just do it a tiny little bit don't do it KhukYEdC5Rg-00614-00136048-00136151 don't go drastic KhukYEdC5Rg-00615-00136152-00136278 because you're trying to squeeze in too KhukYEdC5Rg-00616-00136279-00136463 many words you might just have to get KhukYEdC5Rg-00617-00136464-00136607 rid of a few words to make it work KhukYEdC5Rg-00618-00136608-00136695 better yep KhukYEdC5Rg-00619-00136696-00136999 exactly um all right well i think KhukYEdC5Rg-00620-00137000-00137383 uh let's yeah let me bring you back up KhukYEdC5Rg-00621-00137384-00137535 here craig we'll go back to interview KhukYEdC5Rg-00622-00137536-00137623 style
