An extremely fun experiment brought to you by NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik, who is currently aboard the International Space Station. The International Space Station is probably the last place we thought we'd ever see a fidget spinner but, well, here we go. A fun video posted on social media by NASA's Randy Bresnik shows astronauts on the space station having the time of their lives playing with the popular toy. The video features several members of the space station crew taking turns playing with the fidget spinner (which sports a NASA logo) and performing impressive zero gravity flips and body rolls. "A fidget spinner in space! How long does it spin? I'm not sure, but it's a great way to experiment with Newton's laws of motion," writes the astronaut on Instagram. "Allowing the fidget spinner to float reduces the bearing friction by permitting the rate of the central ring and outer spinner to equalize, and the whole thing spins as a unit."

Someone Wants to Film in My AIRBNB?? (here's what I do) - Duration: 3:34.
Hello my YouTube friends its richard founder of short-term rentals
secrets.com and Airbnb super host a question that I've seen infrequently but
is really important I think a lot of people are missing an opportunity here
is how to deal with a commercial opportunity in your air B&B so what do I
mean by that I don't know about you but I see an awful lot of enquiries
especially in in my more urban areas for people that say things like we're
filming a commercial I'm a student at the local university and I'm filming a
small like film we're launching a product and we want to have a
demonstration we're filming testimonials of clients that have used our service
and we need a nice place with a living room in your place looks perfect again I
see this more in an urban area but I do believe that a lot of people see this
and just go ahead and accept the booking like they do and generally these seem
really enticing hey we're only gonna come for half a day nobody's gonna sleep
there we'll be really clean and so on and so forth and so I think a lot of
people just go ahead and accept it and that's great if it works for you but let
me let you in on a little secret one you can charge more and therefore you should
so for example I have a really simple formula when people go ahead and try and
book we have a standardized template that says for your application or for
your you know commercial use we'd be happy to host you but our price is 2x
that's right 100% you know what the difference there is all profit in my
pocket and what it also does is it gets the people that are really low budget
and can't afford to do it not coming into my home and blocking my calendar
for people that could use it for more than one day and at the same time
recognize that more people in your home is more wear and tear they're less
likely to care than somebody who's actually like living there right so if
you have a small film crew let's say there's 10 or 12 people and they're
eating pizza and having sodas and so on they're more likely to like just leave
it there and leave then somebody who's coming back the next day and they're
gonna live there at least that's in my opinion and the final thing about it is
there's a lot of liability right now you're doing things that are commercial
in your space there's cameras and gear and the stakes are a little bit higher
so for me personally I go ahead and I accept them when it makes sense I don't
allow things that I wouldn't want you know like if people are smoking or drugs
or sex I mean obviously I use my own gut feel still but let's say somebody is
feel commercial and they need a place to stay
or they're filming testimonials I'll go ahead and accept it it's a real simple
response sure we'd be happy to host you our rate for commercial shoots is 2x and
itself selects those that have the budget book and we've had a number of
people that book and those that don't have the budget go find somebody else
who doesn't know this trick and they basically pick them off now well the one
thing that I want to mention about all of this is we get more and more
enquiries about it so it seems like the people that are
called scouts they go out and they shoot they try and find locations for all of
this it turns out that they're using Airbnb much more frequently so even if
you haven't seen it today you're likely to see it on a go-forward basis and if
you remember this little tip if and when they book with you you're gonna get 2x
and that's all profit I hope you found this helpful please go ahead and like
the video and I would really appreciate it if you would subscribe to the YouTube
channel if you haven't yet I have a stated goal of hitting 5,000 by the
middle of November because I care thanks so very much and have a great day happy
birthday
you

Taylor Swift - Look What You Made Me Do [Lyrics / Lyric Video] - Duration: 2:44.
I don't like your little games Don't like your tilted stage
The role you made me play Of the fool, no, I don't like you
I don't like your perfect crime How you laugh when you lie
You said the gun was mine Isn't cool, no, I don't like you (oh)
But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time
Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time
I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined
I check it once, then I check it twice, oh!
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do
Look what you just made me do Look what you just made me�
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do
Look what you just made me do Look what you just made me do
I don't like your kingdom keys They once belonged to me
You asked me for a place to sleep Locked me out and threw a feast (what?)
The world moves on, another day, another drama, drama
But not for me, not for me, all I think about is karma
And then the world moves on, but one thing's for sure
Maybe I got mine, but you'll all get yours
But I got smarter, I got harder in the nick of time
Honey, I rose up from the dead, I do it all the time
I've got a list of names and yours is in red, underlined
I check it once, then I check it twice, oh!
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do
Look what you just made me do Look what you just made me�
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do
Look what you just made me do Look what you just made me do
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do
Look what you just made me do Look what you just made me�
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do
Look what you just made me do Look what you just made me do
Ooh, look what you made me do Look what you made me do

How to Frame Your Video to Shoot for the Edit (And what is B-Roll) - Duration: 1:37.
today I want to give you one tip on
shooting your videos and that is
something called shooting for the edit
that is planning ahead of time what your
video is going to look like when it is
in front of the editor. If you're the
editor what your video is going to look
like when you sit down at the computer
because during this video I want to have
some text on the screen right here I
have positioned myself a little bit to
the side of the frame this allows room
so that I can put some text on the
screen in edit also think about music
special effects and b-roll that you can
put over your video. What is b-roll?
I get that question a lot. B-roll is the second
layer of footage that you put over a
video for example what you're watching
right now is A-Roll this is the first
layer of the video this is me talking
and you're seeing me talk on camera very
simple but let's say I was telling a story
about a woman running through a field of
daisies then I get to put the b-roll of
that footage over my a-roll. Let's say I
was telling a story about how I used to
live in Japan and teach English i would
put that b roll over me speaking about
that experience. You get it? That's b-roll
and that's shooting for the edit think
ahead of time about how to shoot for the
edit and make your videos count.
Thanks so much for watching and I'll see you
next time

KFC Surprises Every Officer With What They Just Did After Weeks Of Protests - Duration: 20:28.
KFC Surprises Every Officer With What They Just Did After Weeks Of Protests
The NFL protests and the Antifa demonstrations of anger divided the American nation.
Most of us wanted to finally see some real progress and dialogue to prevent more confrontations
between the rogue leftists and the fans, but their little rebellion spread all across the
country, even outside the football fields.
However, the true patriots resist the anti-American pressure from the leftists and they have a
perfect response to their protest.
Customers showing up at the KFC in Gallipolis, Ohio for some famous fried chicken and a side
were met at the door with a new rule for this location, effective immediately.
All it took was a simple sign notifying customers of what to expect inside that sent liberals
into a rage, not only in Ohio but across the country when others found out about it.
Liberals are having a hard time coping with the actual hope and change that Donald Trump
has brought back to this country.
They liked it when Barack Obama was in charge who allowed everything counter to our Constitution
to take place, much to the discontent of conservatives.
Turnabout is fair play and they don't like that losing feeling especially when it means
someone is getting something they are not.
With the trend of sitting out the National Anthem to protest apparent racism in this
country and perceived police brutality among black males in full swing within the NFL,
the Gallipolis KFC decided to send their own message.
Supporting police officers is not popular among liberals who hate to be held accountable
and think it's racist when cops apprehend anyone who isn't Caucasian.
Taking their opinion straight to the front of the restaurant, the chicken eatery posted
their new rule in their front window and didn't care who it offended.
After all, it doesn't take much to trigger a sensitive leftist and this sign did not
disappoint in doing so, according to AWM.
Police officers and other members of law enforcement have had it rough over the last few years.
They've been the target of heinous attacks, been thought of as crooked and corrupt and
have gone on trial for things normal citizens could never imagine."
"But one restaurant in Gallipolis, Ohio is working to make sure that the men and women
in uniform understand that they're valued and cared for.
So the owner of the restaurant hung a sign in the front window – and it's raising
some eyebrows!"
This location is giving away free food every single day, but only to those with a badge
and a uniform.
Liberals are all about the handouts but only for those who want to break the law, not the
ones who risk their lives every hour on the job enforcing it.
"The sign states, 'All uniformed police officers eat free every day'.
This is to prove to them that they have the city's respect and that all of their hard
work and dedication is definitely appreciated," Faith Tap explained.
"A free warm meal is the perfect way to recharge their bodies and minds, which in
turn, will keep the streets of Gallipolis even safer!"
Before anyone can say that the photo of this sign that went viral on social media was just
a well played public relations move to stir up business, the employees of this location
said that it is true and they really do serve police officers for free every single day,
all year long.
That generous show of appreciation in itself is what will keep customers coming to this
KFC, regardless of who is mad about it and takes their hunger for some chicken someplace
else.
Faith Tap reports that not everyone is in the neighborhood is happy about the gesture
and some have reportedly criticized the KFC owners of this location for not extending
the free meals to first responders and others as well.
However, officers in Ohio, one of whom runs the Ohio Going Blue Facebook page, said these
critics are missing the much bigger picture.
"This is a positive post, but some of you can't see the bigger picture," the Gallipolis
Officer commented.
"As an officer, I do not go into any establishment expecting [or] wanting anything to be free
or…. even a discount, whether I'm in uniform or not, and I can tell you other officers
feel the same way.
We don't like 'special treatment.'
The fact is that KFC is acknowledging law enforcement, which is why this was posted.
To those who stated that other first responders should also be acknowledged.
My answer?
ABSOLUTELY."
H/T FreedomDaily
Leftists are angry and they should've seen something like this coming.
They hate the police from the bottom of their hearts, but who cares.
Americans know which are the true values and they are not going to let the leftists trick
them with the stupid propaganda.
Share this story if you would've done the same if you owned
a KFC restaurant.

What is Oscilloscope Segmented Memory? - Scopes University - (S1E7) - Duration: 5:39.
When you're trying to capture a long time span of data, you usually can't get
the accuracy you need when you zoom back in on that signal later on.
Many engineers face this problem, and a simple solution is called segmented memory.
Learn more about this and how to use your memory more efficiently.
Hi, I'm Erin East and welcome to Scopes University. Do you ever find when you're
trying to capture a really long time span of data, say you want to look at
400 packets of your I2C bus or 350 pulses from an RF burst, that
when you capture that long time span and go and zoom back in on those pulses or
packets later on, they don't have nearly the accuracy that you need? If I increase
the time based on the scope so that I can capture all those packets that I
wanted to look at, I can then use the zoom gate to zoom in on each of those
individual packets or pulses and then what I'm going to see is that the signal
is distorted because the sample rate per packet of data is much lower than if we
were to trigger and center one single packet on the screen. You see when I
do this and decrease the amount of time we're looking at, I have a lot of signal
detail but obviously I can't see the 400 packets of data I wanted to
look at if I'm doing it this way and this is a common issue among engineers
and you're gonna run into this problem no matter how much memory your
oscilloscope has. The really simple fix to this is called segmented memory.
Segmented memory is especially useful when you're looking at a signal that has
events that are spaced out and you don't necessarily care about the time between
each of those events. It's a really useful tool for things like measuring RF
bursts, decoding serial buses, and really finding glitches in anything that is
repetitive. This is not only used to achieve higher accuracy and sample rate
in the packets you want to analyze, but it's also used to use your oscilloscope's
memory more efficiently. Using your scopes memory the traditional way,
without this type of tool, you'll see that there's some dead time or space in
between each of the packets or pulses you want to look at that you don't
really care about. So, let's say the actual packet itself is 700 ns
wide and the dead time in between is about 4 ms long. If you were
to capture this as-is, the traditional way, with all the dead time included, you
would use about 99.98% of your memory on the dead time and you would only use
about 0.0175% of it on the part you actually care
about, the packets and the pulses.
THAT'S CRAZY!
You're using all all of your memory on something that you don't even want to
see on your screen, and even worse you're not even going to get enough signal detail
on the part you do want to see to make accurate measurements. One solution to
this problem is to buy an oscilloscope with a lot of memory, however that gets
expensive really quickly, and still, there's no oscilloscope in the world that has
enough memory to show you a thousand packets on screen with the highest
sample rate. Segmented Memory is the only way to do that and it's already
integrated into all the InfiniiVision oscilloscopes. It allows you to
capture hundreds of packets of data while using the highest sample rate so
you get the highest signal accuracy you possibly can get. This can be a tricky
concept to understand and I think the easiest way to learn is by doing it on
the scope. All I have to do to set up segmented memory is to set up a stable
trigger on a single packet on the screen. You can see I already have one packet
centered on the screen here that I'm already triggering and decoding on. Now
we just go into the acquire menu, and select segmented, then changed the number
of segments to 1,000 and press the segmented soft key to turn it on. Now you
can see it's acquiring all the segments. Once it's complete, you can see all the
time tags pop up in the sidebar over here, and you can also open the Lister if
you're working with serial buses. The Lister will give you the time tag and
decode information for each of the packets. If you double press one of the
rows in the lister or in the sidebar, the scope will open up that specific packet
so you can analyze it even further. Another great thing you can do with the
Lister is change the reference time for the time tags. Right now you can see
that the time tags are respective to the first segment captured. Well, if I press
on the gear icon up here we can go into the Lister menu, then go into options. And
then you can see here, we can change the time to be relative to the previous
error. You can see how this changed in the Lister up here, and now this gives us
insight into the frequency of each of these pulses and we can understand more
about the device. And just notice we have that really high accuracy with each of
these pulses because we were able to zoom in on the time base and have the
highest sample rate possible. This is much better than what we were working
with before doing the old traditional method. So, you can see how powerful
this tool is into giving you more insight into your design. You're able to
analyze that really long time span while keeping your accuracy really high.
And segmented memory is not only useful for all those things that I outlined,
but it's also helpful to save you a lot of time in your testing. You're able to just
quickly and easily scroll through each of those packets and analyze the data
and real time tags for each of those rather than sitting there and having to
scroll through all of the dead time and waste time on that. Thank you, everyone,
for joining me. I hope you find this to be useful as you're analyzing those
longer time spans of data or even if you want to just more easily analyze
your packets or pulses of data that you have. If you want to learn even more
about segmented memory, make sure you check out the application note that's
posted on the Scopes University webpage. If there's any specific topics you'd

Top 10 of the Biggest "WHAT IF" Scenarios in History - Duration: 15:00.
The world is full of "what ifs?"
What if JFK hadn't decided to go cruising through Dallas in an open-top car?
What if Gandhi had never got teed-off with the British Empire?
What if we'd been wearing pants that time the cops pulled us over?
That's the nature of things: we can never truly know.
But we sure as heck can speculate.
And, thankfully, Earth's long, long history has given us plenty to speculate about.
The following are all turning points in our planet's story where things could've easily
gone the other way.
Some are pretty big, and some are kinda small.
But they all have one thing in common.
Had things turned out differently, they would've all led to a world very different to the one
we live in today.
And, for once, we don't just mean one where our nickname at the station isn't "the
pantless DUI guy."
Ready to go delving into the murky world of alternative history?
You've come to the right place.

The Nazis Finish Their V3 Supergun
"Nazi superweapon" is such an overused phrase that it's practically a collocation
(two or more words that are frequently used together as a single unit.
You're welcome).
Part of this fascination may be to do with the fact that none of them actually worked.
The V1 flying bombs were supposed to kill 100,000 Londoners a month, but instead killed
less than 10,000 total.
The V2 rockets were terrifying, but killed more people in their construction than they
did landing on Britain and Belgium.
The V3 could have changed all that.
A top secret Nazi supergun, it was only discovered when the Allies overran its bunker on the
north French coast.
The gun wasn't yet finished, but let's rewind history and imagine it had been.
Imagine the Allies – for whatever reason – didn't take northern France for a few
months longer.
What would the outcome be in this alternative reality?
Simple.
There would be no such thing as London.
The V3 could've rained one shell a minute onto the British capital, 24 hours a day,
7 days a week.
It wasn't designed to turn the war in Hitler's favor so much as ensure the Allies' only
reachable capital went down with him.
The Allies would likely still have won, but at the cost of the entirety of southern England,
and hundreds of thousands of UK civilian deaths.
Postwar Britain would've been an economic ruin.
Such poverty could've changed anything from how the Marshall Plan was allocated, to whether
Britain ever gave up India, to whether the UK today had representation on the UN Permanent
Security Council.

Franz Ferdinand Isn't Assassinated (or survives)
The most-successful terrorist action of all time, Gavrilo Princip's assassination of
Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo in June 1914 sparked off WWI, collapsed the Ottoman
and Austro-Hungarian Empires, created Yugoslavia which, in turn, created the Yugoslav wars
of the 1990s and everything from our understanding of "ethnic cleansing" to the modern states
of Serbia, Croatia, and Slovenia (among others).
But Princip's role in shaping the world was down to sheer fluke.
The original attempt on Franz Ferdinand failed, and it's totally conceivable the Archduke
could've fled Sarajevo, rather than waiting around awkwardly for Princip to assassinate
him.
If things had gone down that way, the world right now would be utterly unrecognizable.
In 2014, political scientist Richard Ned Lebow published a book with this exact premise.
His conclusions make jaw-dropping reading.
Without Sarajevo, you have no WWI.
Which means no Germany ready to elect Hitler, which means no WWII.
That means no Holocaust, which means no state of Israel or modern Middle East.
And that's just one tiny part of Lebow's book.
He also suggests the centuries-old Austro-Hungarian Empire would've not only continued, it would've
become a beacon of tolerance due to its multicultural population.
Without WWI, the Russian Revolution may not have succeeded, which means no Stalin, no
Eastern bloc, and no gulags.
It also means the European powers retain global dominance, rather than letting America rise
to the top.

Carlos II Manages to Sire an Heir
The Spanish War of Succession is likely the reason you're reading this in English.
At the time it all kicked off (1701), Spain and France were the big superpowers in Western
Europe, and Britain was relegated merely to "rising star."
The subsequent 13 years of bitter fighting changed all that.
It completely knocked Spain out the running, damaged France's standing, and – most
important of all – left Britain as queen bee.
This had all sorts of crazy implications, from the fate of Spanish and British colonies
in the New World, to the reach of the Holy Roman Empire.
The reason it all happened?
Carlos II just couldn't make his junk work well enough to sire an heir.
At the time, the only acceptable way to become king or queen was to be born to a ruler and
inherit the title on their death.
You couldn't just hold a free vote on your next leader or anything dangerously-insane
like that.
This was a massive problem, as Carlos II was impotent.
Years of inbreeding in his family had left him a genetic basket-case.
But what if he'd managed to sire, say, a single son who was normal enough to survive
into adulthood and rule as a king?
Well, you'd be looking at a completely redrawn map of Europe for starters, plus a much more
Spanish-influenced New World.
Britain likely wouldn't have conquered half the world, with the result that English would
today be a much less dominant language.

Bill Clinton's Defense Secretary Tells the Truth About Bombing North Korea
World changing "what ifs?"
don't all have to take place in the distant past.
Some can be much, much closer to home.
Such was the case in 1994, when Bill Clinton summoned Secretary of Defense William Perry
to brief him on the situation in North Korea.
At the time, there were worries about the North's nuclear program (some things never
change, huh?) and the possibility of an attack on South Korea.
Clinton wanted to know if the US could successfully take out the North's reactor at Yongbyon
without causing contamination.
Perry believed it could.
He also believed telling the President that would lead to Clinton authorizing a strike
which, in turn, would lead to total war on the Korean peninsula.
So he kept shtum.
Yongbyon wasn't bombed.
And modern East Asia was created.
A war on the Korean peninsula was later war gamed by the Pentagon to end in a minimum
of a million casualties.
300,000 North Korean shells would've levelled South Korea's capital, Seoul, in a single
hour.
Nearly as many US servicemen would've died as during the Vietnam War.
Given the way Vietnam shook up US culture and politics, it's hard to imagine Korea
II doing otherwise.
But the biggest effect would've been on Asia.
South Korea today is a regional economic powerhouse, not a bombed-out wasteland.
China would've had to deal with a US force right on its border, possibly leading to conflict.
On the other hand, there'd also be no Kim Jong-Un today developing a scary nuclear program.
6.
The Romans Win the Battle of Teutoburg Forest
They say a butterfly beating its wings in Ohio can cause a tornado in China (in which
case, we'd hate to see what our old frat-buddy's farts could do.
Yeesh).
Well, wait till you hear what a battle you've never heard of going the other way in 9 AD
could've done to the modern world.
Had the Romans won the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, the world as you know it simply wouldn't
exist.
For one thing, the English language would've never evolved.
The Battle of Teutoburg Forest was a hugely significant moment for Rome.
After Germanic tribes unexpectedly whupped three of Rome's mightiest legions, wiping
out 10 percent of the entire Roman army, the Empire gave up on conquering Northern Europe.
The Empire's boundaries were set, creating a divide in Europe you can still see today.
All that stuff about how southern Europeans (Spanish, Italians, French) have one attitude
to life, money and religion, while northern Europeans (Germans, Swedes, Danes) have another?
Yeah, that's Teutoburg talking, right there.
We can't stress enough how big the implications are.
If Rome beat those tribes and went on to conquer much of modern Germany, Germanic languages
would cease to exist, which means you'd be reading this in a Romance language.
It also means the social divides wouldn't be there for Martin Luther to get all worked
up about in 1517 and turbo-charge the schism between Catholicism and Protestantism.
So there's no 30 Years' War.
The whole Western world would remain Roman Catholic, affecting culture, art and science
in unimaginable ways.
All because some guys got jumped in a forest over 2,000 years ago.
5.
Japan Doesn't Bomb Pearl Harbor
Let's get the big, obvious bit out of the way.
Yes, an America that doesn't suffer the trauma of Pearl Harbor still enters WWII.
The Japanese were desperately in need of resources when they bombed Hawaii, that was their whole
rationale for going toe-to-toe with a much bigger country.
The problem was that most of those resources could only be found in US-administered places.
Had Pearl Harbor not happened, the US would've still gone to war in the Pacific after expansionist
Japan eventually invaded the Philippines or Guam or wherever.
The key word here is "eventually."
Prior to Pearl Harbor, the US public didn't want war.
Without the Japanese attack, the tide of opinion wouldn't have changed.
That means no American support for Britain and the USSR against Hitler.
And that means trouble.
Sure, by December 1941, the Brits were reasonably sure Germany wouldn't invade.
Sure, Hitler had already made his major mistake of invading Russia by then.
In short, the Third Reich was already doomed.
But it could've gone down in a completely different way.
In this scenario, the Brits are no more than support for the Russian bear as it slowly,
inexorably dismantles the Nazi state in a brutal battle of attrition that kills even
more than died in the real world.
Care to guess what Stalin would do after liberating Europe?
Yep, he'd likely take almost the whole lot for himself, creating a scenario where possibly
everywhere but Britain eventually falls behind the Iron Curtain.
The US, meanwhile, is isolated and no longer seen as the 20th Century's moral leader.
4.
Napoleon Doesn't Invade Russia
Sticking with megalomaniacs and foolish plans to invade Russia, let's look at the 19th
Century's most-foolish megalomaniac of all.
Napoleon was the most-feared military commander of his time.
By 1812, he'd single-handedly demolished the millennia-old Holy Roman Empire, brought
the Austrian Hapsburgs to their knees, completely isolated Britain from all continental trade,
and even forced the Russians to do exactly what he wanted them to do.
He seemed unstoppable.
And then, in 1812, he made one of the dumbest mistakes a military commander has ever made.
After Alexander I broke the trade embargo against Britain, the French general decided
to teach him a lesson.
He invaded Russia, setting into motion a chain of events that would see his army decimated
and humiliated, hundreds of thousands of French soldiers killed, a new European alliance rise
up against France, and Napoleon's ultimate defeat and exile.
Yeah, despite what you hear, it wasn't the British at Waterloo that took down Napoleon.
It was the insane losses the dictator suffered while attacking Russia, a tactic Hitler would
revisit over a century later, with similar results.
So, no invasion of Russia, and you have an invincible Napoleon who unites the whole of
Europe and molds it in his image.
The craziest part?
This could have easily happened.
The decision to invade Russia made no strategic sense, and was only taken to punish Alexander
I.
Had Napoleon let it slide, or chosen to, say, simply sack a single city in retaliation,
the world would be completely different.

Rommel Isn't Absent During D-Day
Erwin Rommel was many things: a good strategist, a highly-decorated commander, and one of the
most influential people in the Third Reich who wasn't also a complete scumbag.
He should probably also be remembered for taking the worst-timed holiday in history.
In 1944, Rommel took time off from his position in occupied France to celebrate his wife's
birthday.
The more popular name for that auspicious date today?
D-Day.
That's right.
On June 5, 1944, Rommel dashed off to Germany for a quick liaison with his darling wife.
Twenty-four hours later, the Allies stormed the beaches, marking the beginning of the
end for Nazi domination of Europe.
While we can't know for certain how things would've gone if Rommel was there, we do
know that the remaining commanders were panicked and confused and completely screwed up the
German response.
A commander of one of the Panzer divisions later bitterly wrote: "If Rommel had been
with us instead of in Germany, he would have disregarded all orders and taken action – of
that we are convinced."
In the spirit of this article, let's imagine Rommel had been there.
Now let's imagine he mounts a successful defense, and the Allies find themselves experiencing
another Dunkirk.
What happens next?
Well, either Nazi dominance of Europe is ensured for even longer (maybe even giving the Germans
time to complete their V3 gun and bomb London flat), or maybe, just maybe, Rommel becomes
enough of a German hero to mount a successful coup against Hitler – something he had vaguely
discussed before with other officers.
So that's a good ending and a bad ending.
Hmm.
Which do you find more convincing?

Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI Escape the French Revolution
The French Revolution of 1789-99 put a powder keg beneath old Europe and exploded it with
the force of a thousand atomic bombs.
Old certainties shattered.
Conditions fell into place that would see ancient empires swept away.
The way we look at the world was fundamentally changed.
While it would take some big changes to put the revolution back in its box, it could still
have had a completely different outcome.
One in which Louis XVI doesn't go to the guillotine, but instead escapes France to
inspire the monarchist forces from abroad.
In June 1791, Louis XVI was on the cusp of fleeing.
It had already been arranged for the king to be spirited away from Paris in a light
carriage, smuggled across the Belgian border, and delivered into the hands of a royalist
alliance.
The only reason this didn't happen?
Marie Antoinette insisted on going with him at the last minute.
This meant using a slower carriage, which meant they missed an important rendezvous
with loyal guards, which led to them being recognized and caught a mere 25 miles from
the border.
The rest, as they say, is history.
Say they had escaped.
It's not too hard to imagine an exiled king giving the royalist forces a rallying point.
At the very least, it's easy to see Louis sowing discord from exile, putting the ultimate
outcome of this turbulent time in doubt.

9/11 is Foiled
9/11 is the most significant event to happen to the USA since Pearl Harbor.
The collapse of the Twin Towers and the murder of nearly 3,000 people in NYC, Washington
and Pennsylvania effected everyone who was alive to witness it on some deep, fundamental
level.
The intelligence failings that led to the attack's success are manifold, and perhaps
halting it simply wasn't possible.
But some, like former Clinton and Bush White House staffer Richard Clarke think there was
a chance in 2001 of 9/11 being averted.
Had that chance been taken, 2017 would look very, very different.
For one thing, Islamist terrorism wouldn't be nearly the issue it is today.
9/11 not only demonstrated the terrible capabilities of jihadists, it also inspired countless others
to set off bombs from Madrid, to London, to Paris.
Nor would the biggest Islamist terror group of all be around today: ISIS.
ISIS rose out of the invasion of Iraq, an invasion that was in part sparked by the traumas
of 9/11.
Without it, Saddam isn't toppled, the Iraqi government doesn't collapse, and the revolutionaries
don't ultimately morph into the most reviled terror group in history.
Mass surveillance, its powers boosted in the post-9/11 era, also doesn't become such
a huge thing, meaning no Edward Snowden revelations, and no NSA nosing through your every email.
And that's before we even get into the effect on culture.
A world without 9/11 is one where the USA still feels sure of itself, invincible.
That would be reflected in all the TV, movies and games surrounding us.
In short, it would be a very different place.

What is eco in bloons td battles? - Duration: 7:26.
Welcome to a brand-new video guys and tonight i am gonna talk about eco (sending ballons)
so
Many Youtuber
tells
new player that
eco is very complex term
I think it is a simple term.Which can be described in one or two minute.
So I am gonna describe eco in bloons td battles
So I am gonna go battle against the player.
And we'll skip that map right now so in this battle, I'm going to show you how to use eco properly
Eco is a very simple thing
where
You will boost the economy
It will just give you more money
In the inner for our game okay, I'm gonna show you about a bit
Wait for something against eco means us sending balloons and here again and the third part
Means that arrow sign if you increase that
And
Then your money below st. With so what now I have
$15 now then I got $300 that increases from every six seconds
But it is just but it only increases
$250 but as I said as I said the balloon my eco increase just
$251 and he gives him and then from every six seconds me
$251 so let me show you you are giving $25 from there from the Opera part and
increasing that arrows arrow side
Side one money, so it's a investment
So you should not invest that much but?
But to go over time you have to invest in iko
Iko is kinda import important if you don't want equal, then you can use also folks
But I talked about pumps in another video
So look as I am sending some balloons, so once these photons give us one point seven dollar and this get balloons gives us
one dollar so these two red and green balloons Algood off to down the
Ten or something like around ten yes after round and they're good good
After we are singing that now you can mostly send this blue balloon because it is good for you look as it's
My equal has enough for three hundred dollars. Probably didn't make $300 so as much more equal you have
Them the more money you make over time
You can make now out somewhere much money, so
Suppose a thousand dollar that I get thousand dollar every six seconds so equal is very important
It helps us to build more and more and feeling the old man
Look as I send more balloon move it I know that that was funny
so I'm sending this but videos off so someone takes more time to deploy and
And it is two hundred two point four dollars so the best balloon is the in this one
The down down part of $60 it all muscle now mine anything
That is the best one to send here through
Increase the recurs so as I'm sending these balloons
It is increasing my equal so up to
$1,500 as you increase the seeker. I think that much is enough if you want you can build up to ten thousand also
But after that you can open and spend your money because it eco is venomous and you
Dude on very much money, and you could not spend that money
Okay
So let's keep spending him
Sending him that $60 balloons because it is it doesn't take that much time and it is seem true
Okay
The balloon is kind of going through the defense okay this I was talking about this $90 balloon right now
Which I am sending. This is the most good pollen tube to take helical right now every nine dollars, but up
But I am for at sixty sixty, but that is a basic second, I'll get $500
Missy to kind they were wasting money because you could buy a by defense but
But it but it gives up gives you more money after some time
But after it is giving me right now one every six second $500 so
It is very much important to bring your equal as I'm building you everything now every six second. I'll give 500 written
By Bill this much equal so equal is very very simple look now. I am getting
$500 for six second
So I can build more and more so you should keep sending balloon and keep building it. Helps us used to build and
And the best one is this $90 one I said
It already so this $90 one balloon is the best one to set you should not just take care about anything with
$90 remodel this one right here
Just keep sending and keep building for defense
So as now my
$600 so look after six seconds
Yeah
Any video $800 so my by as my ego grows it gives me more and more money
So equals very simple thing some youtubers still it is very completely after
30 minutes are they can talk all day, or you go, buddy. It's very simple
I don't know. Why do they talk that much but ego is very simple
So I hope you understood what?
About eco, you can also send camo and reason like

What's happening with the budget? - Duration: 2:01.
In kindergarten, most of us learned some pretty basic
lessons about how to behave.
We learned about things like sharing,
and taking care of each other, fairness, doing your part.
We call those lessons values.
Now, as adults, there are a lot of ways
that we can show those values.
Taxes are one of them.
Yes, really.
Taxes.
And that brings me to what's happening right now.
The president and congressional Republicans
are proposing some huge tax cuts for,
surprise, surprise, the rich.
I'm talking trillions of dollars worth.
And that would mean massive cuts to those programs that lift us,
our families, and the economy.
Their not-so-bright idea is to cut things
that our nation needs, like disaster relief.
Hello?
After school programs, job training, and Medicare.
Just so that the very rich can keep more money
in their own pockets.
Think I'm being dramatic when I say, huge tax cuts?
Well, under Trump's plan, the 400 richest families, like his,
would get a $9 million tax cut each year on average.
Meanwhile, working and low income families,
especially those with disabilities,
who live in rural communities, or who
come from communities of color, would lose health care.
Medicaid would be slashed, and states
would have much less money to spend on things
like schools, roads, and parks.
The bottom line, the tax package they're proposing
isn't for you.
It definitely ain't for me.
It's for golf course owners.
Our families and our nation's economy
would suffer, just so that the halves would
be able to have more.
The President obviously doesn't have the values
that we, and most five year olds, have.
But the good news is, we can win here.
Really.
Let's speak up.

What Profession Has the Biggest Money Blocks? - Duration: 7:37.
Hey, gorgeous. It's Denise here from LuckyBitch.com.
Today's video digs deep into a topic that I find so interesting: which profession do
you think has the biggest money blocks? It's pretty safe to say that almost every
industry has money blocks. Even if they don't know it yet. While it's true that there
are many commonalities amongst the women I teach, some industries have
money blocks totally unique to their industry. But here's some Denise Truth Talk:
Unless you're willing to clear your money blocks on an ongoing basis, you're
probably going to self-sabotage and stay stuck at your current income. Even if
everybody else in your industry is broke, stop using your profession as an excuse
and, instead, find the hidden gold to move past your blocks. I've got the quick and
dirty version here today. But if you want to go deeper, then I have a free mini
workshop for you to dig deeper into your industry and give you exactly what you
need to do to get over your blocks. Let's get started with the quick and
dirty version first. Stick around and I'll tell you about that workshop.
As I mentioned, some money blocks are pretty universal for women and come up
all the time for the Lucky Bs in our community. For example, most entrepreneurs have
negative beliefs like, "I have to work really hard to make money. I don't deserve to
be wealthy," or, "I'm not good enough to make more money." These blocks are
pretty huge in themselves, but some industries have some pretty specific
blocks that go beyond these universal ones. Let's dive into it.
First up, let's talk about entrepreneurs in the health and wellness industry.
I'm talking about people who are health and wellness coaches, weight loss coaches
or anyone who helps clients transform their health or wellbeing in any way.
Many people working in the health industry have this block that good health
should be free. Or, "I'm taking advantage of people's illnesses." Or, "I can't offer
people solutions or supplements because I shouldn't be salesy." You've got to stop this.
The whole reason that people come to you when you're a health professional is
to learn how to take better care of themselves. Of course good health
should be free. Of course it should be everybody's birthright. But some people
need a little more help than others and they're coming to you for a solution.
If they wanted to, I'm sure they could find a low cost or no cost solution to DIY it
themselves, but some people want deeper transformation and personal attention.
They've come to you for your knowledge. Not giving them a solution – whether it's
your skills or a recommendation for a supplement, you're not serving them to
the best of your ability. You're actually stopping yourself from doing the work
that you're here to do. The affirmation, "I serve, I deserve," is a really good one to
use as a pattern interrupter for those blocks and it reminds you that you're
being of service to people and it's totally okay to charge in return for your expertise.
Next up, let's talk about coaches and consultants. Coaches often get tied up in
their own perfectionism, which can have a huge consequence for their abundance.
I know because I used to be a coach, too. Maybe you feel like you have to be way
more successful or earn more than all of your clients. Maybe you feel like fraud.
Maybe you feel like you have to be perfect before you can help anybody. If you've
got those, then you've definitely got the most common money blocks for your industry.
I think coaches often feel like this because we want to prove that we're past
our problems that our clients are facing themselves. When you clear out that
perfectionism, it's the first step to not self-sabotaging yourself as a coach and
as a businesswoman. Remind yourself that your clients are coming to you for
your skills to hold them accountable, to hold the space for their dreams and to
help them work through their own feelings of not being good enough. Give yourself
a break and treat yourself with as much compassion as you do for your clients.
Next up, let's talk about people in the finance profession – people like
bookkeepers, accountants, financial advisors and all that kind of stuff.
You guys also have the tendency towards perfectionism. Maybe you're a finance
professional and you feel kind of ashamed because maybe you're a
bookkeeper and your books aren't as well- kept as your clients' are. Maybe you don't
always follow your advice perfectly. Then maybe you've got blocks that are helping
you from serving more people. You know what? Working on your own money mindset
and clearing this perfectionism is going to help you have more compassion for your
clients who get blocked around working with you in the first place – so you can
get more clients. Next up, I want to talk to my Lucky Bs in the spiritual world.
I know so many gifted spiritual entrepreneurs who are really blocked
around charging for their work. It's really common to hear things like, "I can't
charge for my gift. It's unethical to charge for spiritual advice." Or, "Nobody
wants to pay for this." Maybe you even get clients with a victim mentality who
can't afford to pay for you or you might even get negative feedback from people
about, "How dare you charge for this? This should be free!" Which is ridiculous.
It's important to remember that "I serve, I deserve" affirmation. Remind yourself
that when you release these blocks, more money can flow to you and you will be
able to help more people as well. I have a lot more to say on this one, so make sure
you stick around for my free workshop, all you spiritual people.
Let's talk about artists and creatives. This is the final group I'm going to talk about.
If you're in a creative business, then you probably have a block around charging
for your art. There's a real risk here that you're running this starving artist script in
your life, that you believe that you can't make money from your art or your craft,
that somehow it's noble to live in poverty rather than selling out.
It's as though the art's more real if you suffer from it and you don't sell out.
Then you might have another belief that nobody pays for art or people don't
appreciate creativity. Then you really will be the starving artist until you clear those blocks.
I know plenty of artists who have made abundant lives and businesses from their
art without having to sacrifice their sanity, their integrity or their bank accounts.
You can as well. What if I've missed your profession or you want to go deeper?
Recently, I hosted a webinar where I went through each of these professions in
much more detail and I gave some specific clearing tools as well.
You can watch the replay at LuckyBitch.com/jobs.
Your industry probably has some really specific pricing blocks to stop you from
charging what you worth and I can help you clear these negative beliefs so you
can thrive in your profession and finally profit from your skills and talents.
Again, watch this today at LuckyBitch.com/jobs.
Happy block clearing, Lucky B!
Guess what. It's your time and you're ready for the next step.
