Waching daily Apr 26 2017

Hello everyone, I'm Davide Rizzi and this is the first episode of Krap spotlight italy

a new format that we decided to do in order to give some attentions to athletes from the italian parkour and freerunning scene that we think deserve them

this format is completely in italian just for you guys from the peninsula and the islands like me,so we can understand each other better

the point of these videos is to motivate all the athletes from the italian scene to push themself, make more videos,get better, and great soddisfactions will come from this.

We want to see great contents because we know, that even in italy, there is some mad stuff! Let's show how talented we are!

If you want to be featured in the new episode of krap spotlight italy, you need to send an email to social@krap.it with your video, just from youtube, no instagram no facebook.(We'll pick our favourites)

(was that good?)

Now, been talking too much, let's begin with the first athlete that we selected in our list

His name is Gaspare Caravello, he is 16 years old and he's from Sicily, he's been training for about 2 years which is crazy when you see the skill level that he achieved so far so, props to him!

Unfortunately, instagram video quality is kind of bad so we have to put you in the painting.

Gaspare has good and clean flips, with some creativeness and he has good control, he's also trying to develop some parkour based moves that will led him to be a great well rounded athlete, keep training, keep doing what you do, all good.

Next up is Giovanni Imazio a young athlete from Naples, he's 17 and I get so pumped when I see his videos, he is so good!

His flips are crazy, you can clearly see that he is so comfortable with them , he's doing some big technical stuff, here is the video follow him on youtube, instagram everything and show him some krap love!

Still from Naples we have Rosario Barile he's 16... no, he's 15! I have no idea of how long he is been training for, but the only word that can describe him is: CLEAN

Rosario is really clean, he has a good base of flips and his parkour side is really impressive, everything is amazingly done despite the huge jumps, so congratulations to him, keep it going and... that's it.

Now from the south to the north we have Emanuele Brunello a guy that I personally know from Vicenza, he's 19 and he have pistons instead of legs, he's so springy! this allowes him to perform huge parkour stuff and now he's also been training flips,

check out his videos, in this one he's striding all the walls from the romolo spot in milan and frontflipping the last one,if you didn't know that's mad huge, props to him and let's move on.

*cut*

The next video is a very well made one from Angelo Cerisara which shows as protagonist Achraf Dibani, is a 4k video, shot in the woods and it's really good! I can't show you the whole video because it's rather short but go check it out, I'll leave the link down here.

The last video I wanna show you is from parkour Torino, a really cool crew that is putting out some great videos lately,

they also were here in Veneto couple weeks back, we trained together and had a lot of fun even thought they kicked us out from all the spots.

This video is splitted in 2 parts you can check them out on their facebook page, the first one shows Nicolò doing a sick frontflip pre on straight walls, you need to see it!

The second part shows one of the most famous spots in Turin I believe is called "lingotto", so go see this video on the Parkour Torino Facebook page, go leave a like and watch their videos!

In this crew there are also 2 girls, Milena and Monica, we're glad to see that more and more females are training parkour, keep it up!

The final part of this episode is about telling you guys all the upcoming events that will take place here in Italy,

the first one is going to be the "Move for passion" 14th May in Turin, be sure to be there is going to be fun!

One week before this event there's going to be to Eden Prototype in Bologna 7-8 May, there are also going to be some international guests so be sure to go there aswell!

Last but not least, 2-3-4 June there's going to be the Krap Invaders Spring in Sacile, I already said everything so be there and all that jazz.

See you soon, the episode is over, I lost eye contact with the camera but it doesn't matter, GANG.

*flexing*

11 Facts That Prove That The U S Economy In 2017 Is In Far Worse Shape Than It Was In 2016 - Duration: 10:25.

11 Facts That Prove That The U.S. Economy In 2017 Is In Far Worse Shape Than It Was

In 2016

By Michael Snyder,

There is much debate about where the U.S. economy is ultimately heading, but what everybody

should be able to agree on is that economic conditions are significantly worse this year

than they were last year.

It is being projected that U.S. economic growth for the first quarter will be close to zero,

thousands of retail stores are closing, factory output is falling, and restaurants and automakers

have both fallen on very hard times.

As economic activity has slowed down, commercial and consumer bankruptcies are both rising

at rates that we have not seen since the last financial crisis.

Everywhere you look there are echoes of 2008, and yet most people still seem to be in denial

about what is happening.

The following are 11 facts that prove that the U.S. economy in 2017 is in far worse shape

than it was in 2016�

#1 It is being projected that there will be more than 8,000 retail store closings in the

United States in 2017, and that will far surpass the former peak of 6,163 store closings that

we witnessed in 2008.

#2 The number of retailers that have filed for bankruptcy so far in 2017 has already

surpassed the total for the entire year of 2016.

#3 So far in 2017, an astounding 49 million square feet of retail space has closed down

in the United States.

At this pace, approximately 147 million square feet will be shut down by the end of the year,

and that would absolutely shatter the all-time record of 115 million square feet that was

shut down in 2001.

#4 The Atlanta Fed�s GDP Now model is projecting that U.S. economic growth for the first quarter

of 2017 will come in at just 0.5 percent.

If that pace continues for the rest of the year, it will be the worst year for U.S. economic

growth since the last recession.

#5 Restaurants are experiencing their toughest stretch since the last recession, and in March

things continued to get even worse�

Foot traffic at chain restaurants in March dropped 3.4% from a year ago.

Menu prices couldn�t be increased enough to make up for it, and same-store sales fell

1.1%.

The least bad region was the Western US, where sales inched up 1.2% year-over-year and traffic

fell only 1.7%, according to TDn2K�s Restaurant Industry Snapshot.

The worst was the NY-NJ Region, where sales plunged 4.6% and foot traffic 6.3%.

This comes after a dismal February, when foot traffic had dropped 5% year-over-year, and

same-store sales 3.7%.

#6 In March, U.S. factory output declined at the fastest pace in more than two years.

#7 According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, not a single person is employed in nearly

one out of every five U.S. families.

#8 U.S. government revenues just suffered their biggest drop since the last recession.

#9 Nearly all of the big automakers reported disappointing sales in March, and dealer inventories

have now risen to the highest level that we have seen since the last recession.

#10 Used vehicle prices are absolutely crashing, and subprime auto loan losses have shot up

to the highest level that we have seen since the last recession.

#11 At this point, most U.S. consumers are completely tapped out.

According to CNN, almost six out of every ten Americans do not have enough money saved

to even cover a $500 emergency expense.

Just like in 2008, debts are going bad at a very alarming pace.

In fact, things have already gotten so bad that the IMF has issued a major warning about

it�

In America alone, bad debt held by companies could reach $4 trillion, �or almost a quarter

of corporate assets considered,� according to the IMF.

That debt �could undermine financial stability� if mishandled, the IMF says.

The percentage of �weak,� �vulnerable� or �challenged� debt held as assets by

US firms has almost arrived at the same level it was right before the 2008 crisis.

We are seeing so many parallels to the last financial crisis, and many are hoping that

our politicians in Washington can fix things before it is too late.

On Monday, the most critical week of Trump�s young presidency begins.

The administration will continue working on tax reform and a replacement for Obamacare,

but of even greater importance is the fact that if a spending agreement is not passed

by Friday a government shutdown will begin at the end of the week�

Trump has indicated that he wants to tackle the repeal and replacement of Obamacare and

introduce his �massive� tax plan in the next week, all while a shutdown of parts of

federal government looms Friday.

By attempting three massive political undertakings in one week, investors will have a sense of

whether or not Trump will be able to deliver on pro-growth policies that would be beneficial

for markets.

If Trump can pull off the trifecta, it could restore faith that policy proposals like tax

cuts and infrastructure spending are on the way.

If not, look out.

Members of Congress are returning from their extended two week spring vacation, and now

they will only have four working days to get something done.

And I don�t believe that they will be able to rush something through in just four days.

The Republicans in Congress, the Democrats in Congress, and the Trump administration

all want different things, and ironing out all of those differences is not going to be

easy.

For example, the Trump administration is insisting on funding for a border wall, and the Democrats

are saying no way.

The following comes from the Washington Post�

President Trump and his top aides applied new pressure Sunday on lawmakers to include

money for a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border in a must-pass government funding bill, raising

the possibility of a federal government shutdown this week.

In a pair of tweets, Trump attacked Democrats for opposing the wall and insisted that Mexico

would pay for it �at a later date,� despite his repeated campaign promises not including

that qualifier.

And top administration officials appeared on Sunday morning news shows to press for

wall funding, including White House budget director Mick Mulvaney, who said Trump might

refuse to sign a spending bill that does not include any.

And of course the border wall is just one of a whole host of controversial issues that

are standing in the way of an agreement.

Those that are suggesting that all of these issues will be resolved in less than 100 hours

are being completely unrealistic.

And even though the Trump administration is putting on a brave face, the truth is that

quiet preparations for a government shutdown have already begun.

The stage is being set for the kind of nightmare crisis that I portrayed in The Beginning Of

The End.

The stock market bubble is showing signs of being ready to burst, and an extended government

shutdown would be more than enough to push things over the edge.

Let us hope that this government shutdown is only for a limited period of time, because

an extended shutdown could potentially be catastrophic.

In the end, either the Trump administration or the Democrats are going to have to give

in on issues such as funding for Obamacare, the border wall, Planned Parenthood, defense

spending increases, etc.

It will be a test of the wills, and it will be absolutely fascinating to see who buckles

under the pressure first.

First Love Again | 다시 첫사랑 – Ep.102 [ENG/2017.04.26] - Duration: 34:40.

I won't call you dad...

And I won't ask you to go inline skating.

So please...

Stop that lady.

Gaon.

Mom cries...

Because I am...

A disgusting child.

It's not like that.

No, Gaon. It's not like that.

Who said that to you?

Gaon.

That lady.

Who is this lady?

That lady that I saw here the last time.

She's the lady in the photos...

At your house.

So please...

Stop her, mister.

It's not an empty threat.

Answer me.

Should I send the reporters right now?

Just give me one day.

One day?

Yes. It's about Gaon.

I'll do what you want, so give me a day.

Wait one day.

You have until today.

I won't wait any longer.

It's about her child. What can she do?

She'll have to do as I ask.

Whatever it is that Minhui promised,

she won't keep it.

Since she always broke her word.

She says she'll send reporters

to Gaon's school.

She'll tell the world that he is Cha Doyun's child.

If I don't do as she demands,

she may not do it right away.

But she'll definitely do something to pressure me.

One by one.

She'll make the rumor spread in

our neighborhood or my company.

Starting with Gaon's friends.

Hajin.

Please.

If you feel sorry to Gaon at all,

please tell the truth.

Why...

Won't you tell me the other conditions?

You are...

Different from before.

You succeeded in the U.S.

And have a friend like Jay Reeders.

If you give me money like Minhui

or use my family to threaten me...

It would be easier.

I know.

I considered it countless times.

I considered threatening you with your prison term...

I considered using your family as bait...

And giving you money.

I could do things I couldn't before,

so it was harder to decide.

But...

I won't do that.

Gaon...

Likes you a lot.

I can't negotiate and threaten someone my child likes.

I didn't think...

I could look Gaon in the eye if I did that,

so I couldn't do it.

So...

All I can do...

Is to beg and plead.

Please.

I beg of you.

He should be in school. Why did he go to you?

What's going on?

Gaon, what's wrong with you?

Your mom will have a heart attack.

How am I supposed to face her?

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

He wanted to see his dad.

Good-bye.

Hey, Gaon.

Why is he so upset?

Did you get into a fight with him?

No, I didn't.

I'll get going now.

Okay.

What's going on?

Should I tell Hajin?

Hajin, where are you?

I'll come to you.

Gaon came to me.

What do you mean?

Why did he go to you?

I think he heard what Minhui said to you

and what she plans to do.

Just what did she say?

Gaon heard her?

How?

I saw him go into the house before I talked to her.

I don't know either.

Other than the fact that he heard

you and Minhui talking.

Did she use Gaon to threaten you?

With what?

Did she threaten to hurt him?

She didn't...

Do anything yet.

If I don't give her what she wants by today,

she'll mess with him.

How?

What is she planning to do?

Hajin!

Back when she threatened me...

I ran away.

So Doyun...

Please leave it to me this time.

Then and now,

the person controlling our lives is...

Baek Minhui.

Doyun!

Did Lee Hajin come by again?

Yes.

She's using all sorts of tactics,

since you won't consent to her visits.

So? What did you say?

I didn't say anything.

True.

You shouldn't, for your child's sake.

Is my son, Gaon, doing well?

My son.

Is he getting his treatment?

Of course.

I received word that he's recovering quickly

and that the results are good.

I see.

So...

Think of your son...

And don't get any ideas.

You should behave in there

and return quickly to your family.

Yes, I should.

What is it?

Did you come to say you're taking Hyerin?

I'm her mom.

Who gave permission to take her or send her away?

Jeongu.

I'm here about the secret contract.

It's the best piece of evidence to win my lawsuit

to recover my family's assets.

And it would be the absolute worst

for you and your mother.

Don't bluff. It won't work on me.

I've memorized every line of the contract.

Should I recite it for you now?

I'll drop the lawsuit...

To recover my assets.

What?

I'll drop it...

So stop threatening Hajin with the original copy

that you have.

Are you kidding me?

Why did you suddenly change your mind?

Because of Hajin.

I'm glad you'll drop the lawsuit.

Should I thank you?

But you'll give up something you devoted your life to...

Just for Lee Hajin?

For a woman like her?

Do you really...

Love...

Hajin or something?

For real?

I've never liked anyone...

As much as her since you and I broke up.

I was sincere.

Get out.

Minhui.

I'm dropping the lawsuit for Hajin,

but it's also for you and Hyerin.

I wish you'd stop becoming a monster.

Hyerin said...

The person she likes the most in the world...

Is you.

It wasn't her grandma or her dad.

It was you.

I guess that's what a mom is to a child.

No matter how good Doyun and I are good to her...

You'll always come first to Hyerin.

If you're her mom...

That won't change.

So please stop...

For Hyerin's sake. Please.

You didn't have to come.

I haven't approved of Seyeon.

I'm being nice because she cooked for me

and took care of me.

I know. I do.

Mother, what brings you here?

Taeyun has been putting you out.

I should at least come by and thank you.

Thanks for taking care of him all this time.

It's okay.

No seniors, classmates, or juniors today, right?

What's all this about?

There are some punks chasing Seyeon.

Gosh.

Are you cheating?

- Sorry? / - Mom.

She isn't like that.

Then why do you let guys chase you?

I'm already offended that Taeyun

seems to like you more.

Why you...

I came to buy you some clothes

to thank you for the porridge.

Seriously.

Forget it.

I really don't like you.

I was wrong.

Why are you causing a ruckus in our place of business?

Seyeon.

Did you take her porridge?

Mom, that's...

What's so great about Taeyun

that you'd take her porridge?

He's homeless and thoughtless.

Why are you bothering?

What? Who's homeless and thoughtless?

My Taeyun?

He's homeless.

That's why he's living with us like a son-in-law.

Look, granny. Your daughter came to our house

and fed me porridge and took care of me

while I was sick.

She even scheduled my facial.

She acted like a good daughter-in-law.

What? Did you really act like a daughter-in-law?

Stop it already.

You too, mother. Please stop.

Let's stop, mom.

Mother, please.

Your temper is so...

- Oh, my gosh. / - Why that brat.

- Oh, my gosh. / - I've gotten so nice recently.

I can't believe I let her get away with that.

She may be my daughter, but she is a bit rough.

Taeyun is so nice, he lets her have her way.

Do you even know that he's nice?

Of course. Obviously.

Well, thank you for feeding him and

putting a roof over his head.

Well, it was just leftovers anyway.

So, did you like the porridge?

Well, it was edible.

Seyeon is a good cook.

I made it.

She isn't very talented when it comes to cooking.

No wonder it tasted good.

Did it?

Your mother is taking my side.

And your mother is being protective of me.

Did you see her treat me like her son-in-law?

Mother was being protective of me like

I were her daughter-in-law.

The chairman stepped out. You should...

Where is Chairman Baek?

I don't know. She didn't say.

Then I'll wait.

("LK's CEO Cha Doyun's Illegitimate Child")

("LK's CEO Cha Doyun Has an Illegitimate Child")

(List of Reporters)

Mr. Nam. You're friendly with some reporters, right?

Find out if there's a rumor circulating about me

and where the source is right now.

It hasn't been published yet,

but news of Gaon has secretly been spreading.

They say it came from Chairman Baek.

They seem to have found out

where Gaon goes to school.

Was that done by Chairman Baek as well?

Yes.

Mother!

- Pack your things. / - Excuse me?

Let's go to your grandparents' house.

You don't need to stay here by yourself anymore.

But grandma and dad...

Go on.

I don't know where they'll take you if you stay here.

After I say bye to grandma and dad.

- Grandma said she'd be back... / - Hyerin.

Pack your things.

Okay, maid.

Thank you.

Why are you home so early? Are you done with work?

Yes. How's Gaon?

I don't know. He's been staying in his room

and hasn't come out since Doyun brought him home.

What's going on?

Did Doyun scold him?

No.

He rarely sees him.

What would he scold him about?

I'll check on him.

I'll stay, so you can go out if you have things to do.

Okay.

Gaon.

Don't you have something to tell me?

I don't.

I want to read, mom.

Did you pack your things?

What are you doing here?

Did you see Hajin?

Did you threaten her?

Gaon, too?

What did you say?

Nothing.

Minhui.

I said the truth, and that I'd tell the truth.

We all know that Gaon is your illegitimate child.

How could you say that...

To a child?

You made me this way.

You used loan sharks to bankrupt me.

Did you think I'd sit back and just watch,

doing nothing?

How far do you plan to go?

I'll do anything. I'll use anything I can.

So why did you corner me?

All I wanted

was to remain as the chairman of LK.

So? Do you plan to destroy

people's lives forever because of your greed?

A child's life too?

It isn't greed. It's my right.

It's my position. My status.

Why is it greed to protect what's mine?

You cornered me here

in order to protect what's yours too.

Didn't you ever...

Feel sorry to Gaon?

You stole Gaon from me.

You stole my child from me.

And yet...

You never once felt sorry?

I gave you Hyerin...

In Gaon's place.

You said you thought of her as your real child.

You said raising her gave you the strength to live!

How could you use those feelings?

Do you know how desperate I was...

Taking Hyerin in,

trying to love her as much as I could in order to forget...

Hajin and Gaon?

Mother.

Mother, I finished packing.

I'm coming in.

Dad, when did you come home?

Dad, what's wrong?

You're scaring me.

Dad.

Yes. Yes, Hyerin.

I'm sorry. Dad's sorry.

Hyerin.

He's really lost his mind.

I heard Minhui came.

Did something happen again?

Why did she come while I was out again?

Did she say she'd take Hyerin?

That's why you need to decide what to do...

I've decided.

Let's send...

Hyerin to Jeongu.

Doyun.

I can't do this anymore.

If we keep her with us...

I'm afraid I'll end up hurting her too deeply.

Today...

I really wanted to kill her mom...

While Hyerin was in the house. No.

If Hyerin hadn't come in,

I don't know what I would've done.

- Doyun. / - We can't go on like this.

As you said,

let's send Hyerin to Jeongu.

Every time I look at her...

I tell myself that I should love her,

that she's my daughter.

I find myself doing that.

Just seeing her should make me love her.

But I have to force myself to love her.

I think it's time...

To let Hyerin go, mother.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll meet with Hyerin.

It'll be difficult to tell her that you're her dad.

I can tell her...

No. I'll tell her.

I should do it.

Okay.

Gaon.

Will you please look at me?

I know you're not sleeping.

I'm sleepy.

Okay. If you're sleepy, just sleep.

But Gaon...

Don't forget

how happy you make mom and dad, okay?

My most miserable times...

Were when I had forgotten you.

So I'm sorry.

And thank you for coming to me anyway.

Mom.

Thank you so much...

For coming back to me...

Back to us.

No.

It's okay.

It'll be resolved tomorrow.

If I can stop the loan sharks...

I can protect my position as the chairman.

Mister.

Am I going with you to study abroad?

Do you not like it?

No. I like it.

But why am I going with you?

Is it because you are my mother's friend?

I'm your dad's friend too.

You are?

You two didn't seem close last time.

My mother hasn't been coming home lately.

Yesterday, she said she'd take me

to my grandparents' house.

Do you know why?

- Hyerin. / - Yes?

I have to tell you something.

I gave you...

Such a great piece of information.

Why aren't you giving anything in return?

Your mother was thorough with giving and taking.

What do you mean?

About Gaon?

That's right. We need to kick Hwaran out

and I should take her spot.

You just need to help me a little.

You claimed to love her so much...

But she's someone you need to

kick out for your shares.

So what?

Wait.

I think things will go well, thanks to you,

so I'll take care of your matter once mine are settled.

Threatening Doyun with Gaon worked, right?

Today's the deadline.

Did you talk to Doyun?

Sure. I'm sure he'd listen to you.

And for Gaon's sake too.

He held onto his baby's sonogram

for over 8 years, after all.

He wouldn't shun Gaon now.

I don't make deals with Doyun using Gaon.

And I won't make any deals with you.

- Lee Hajin. / - I won't...

Let you threaten me ever again.

If I give you one thing, you'll want two.

If I give you two,

you'll keep harassing Gaon and me to get even more.

Are you saying you don't care what happens to Gaon?

It's because it's about Gaon. That's why I won't do it.

Tell the PR team to call all the reporters.

Tell them to blow Doyun's scandal wide open.

Pardon? Yes, ma'am.

You still have time

to turn back, if you want.

Lee Hajin.

Do you really not care...

If your child is mocked...

And judged at school and everywhere

for being an illegitimate child?

As long as he lives in Korea...

No, even if he leaves the country...

It'll follow him around forever. Don't you care?

Once the reporters show up...

It's out of my hands.

The reporters will be here soon.

What?

These are the promissory notes

I got from the loan sharks.

I've taken over

all of Baek Minhui's debt.

Now...

I'm her creditor.

Doyun.

I plan to exercise my rights as her creditor.

If you plan to use Myungha Foundation's funds

to help her,

tell me now.

No.

Myungha Foundation will never

pay Minhui's debts again.

I'm sure they're waiting,

as you wanted.

What are you saying?

I told you that I will make you stand trial.

What?

That I'll make sure you can no longer harass my child.

Who are you?

How dare you come in here?

We're the police.

The police?

Are you Baek Minhui?

Yes.

- I am. / - Baek Minhui.

You are under arrest for soliciting

the kidnapping of a minor.

(There's something you need to know about Gaon)

No, Reverend Kim.

Thank you for telling me...

About Gaon.

No problem.

I emailed you because I felt like

you didn't hear the news.

Our church held his funeral. Don't worry.

I see.

Thank you.

I think that woman harassed your wife terribly.

Don't blame her too much

for not telling you about Gaon's death.

I know.

I know...

How she threatens people...

And manipulates them.

I know that too well.

I'll make sure...

She never does that again.

I will...

Make sure she never does.

I'll make sure you can't use Gaon

to threaten me again.

(First Love Again)

Is it true that you hired someone to kidnap a child?

Isn't it strange? I thought I'd feel relieved,

but my heart feels heavy.

Everything points to you.

Minhui, please stop.

What I'm giving you

is nothing compared to what you gave me.

You lunatic. Why does Minhui have that?

If I give the secret dual contract to the prosecutor,

what will you do?

Will everything really be okay

if we stay together like this?

Is it allowed?

'Star People' and 'Flying Shields' Are Familiar Notions Inside - Duration: 9:15.

�Star People� and �Flying Shields� Are Familiar Notions Inside Native American

Tribes. Here�s the Reason Why

Prior to the merciless conquest of the Americas by the rapacious Europeans, there were various

cultures in these areas not sharing the beliefs of the colonialists, but instead possessing

unique belief systems, as well as precious ancient knowledge.

Much of this information had been eradicated by the colonialists of that era, but several

ideologies were fortunate enough to surpass the test of time and are now offering bewildering

insight, since these ancient concepts are contradictory to the established Western paradigm.

Surviving tribes speak of the �Star People,� a term referring to various beings of otherworldly

origins who at some point in time descended from the sky in order to share some of their

wisdom with the early inhabitants of the Earth worthy of their �gifts� of knowledge.

These timeworn peoples had established contact with diverse species of advanced extraterrestrials,

proof of this standing the multitude of myths depicting such encounters. Although disconnected

by millenary periods of time, former cultures of the Americas speak of flying objects and

technology so advanced that it could have been confused with magic. The narratives of

the Native American tribes are particularly luxuriant in details.

�My people tell of Star People who came to us many generations ago,� writes Richard

Wagamese of the Wabaseemoong First People. �The Star people brought spiritual teachings

and stories and maps of the cosmos and they offered these freely. They were kind, loving

and set a great example. When they left us, my people say there was a loneliness like

no other.�

And he goes on saying that:

�If Star people did come to the Ojibway, where did they go? Where did they come from?

Who brought teachings to them? What scientific magic did they own that allowed them to make

such an incredible journey � and is it possible for us?�

Hopi Indians know they owe much of their cultural heritage to their ancestors who came from

the Pleidaes, and much of their lifestyle seems analog to the depicted attitude of those

aliens. Does this prove their origins myths hold more truth than fiction? It could very

well be the case.

The Dakota people allude to the same star cluster as the place from where their ancestors

had arrived. Not far from them are the Cree, who believe that at some point in remote history,

their founding fathers descended from the stars, just that in spirit form, and have

later materialized into human beings.

Lakota natives speak of mystical celestial entities which developed energy shields around

them whenever transcending into the material world. They were often seen as luminous orbs

of light and would sometimes adopt gifted children to journey with them across the cosmos.

This entire concept of alien visitors is not at all new or unknown to the Native Americans,

but they perceive this topic from a more spiritual point of view than us Westerners. Author of

Plains Cree, Stephane Wuttunee explains this more thoroughly in a UFO digest article:

�[My people] give far greater attention to the seeking of the spiritual understanding

of things rather than going after �the truth� as people from dominant cultures do. This

is part of the reason why we tend to stand back and view or listen at first, rather than

bare in with questions or take the hard, direct approach.�

The tightness of Wuttunee�s community allowed him to lend an ear to the stories of his elders

which comprised information that had been passed down one generation after another.

The stories often reminded of �distant relations and Star People living among the stars�

that had established contact with his tribe.

�Far from being anything to be feared, Star People was just another term i grew up around,�

acknowledged Wuttunee in his paper. �I remember listening in awe and fascination at the thought

of us having relations that lived off and outside our world, and sometimes spoke to

them in my silent moments at night. I wanted to know who they were and what they looked

like, if they had families like us and so on.�

�It wasn�t until my later teens that I discovered that people from the dominant culture

were talking about the same �people� as my elders did, though each sides�s sense

of perception of these people seemed radically different from one another.�

So, could Wuttunee�s words be the product of our modern-day understanding of extraterrestrials

combined with the imaginative nature of his elderly�s tales? It could be, but the fact

that Native Americans have been talking about �flying shields� since forever speaks

in favor of another reality.

Before the UFO phenomenon became a widespread media phenomenon, an Oglala Sioux mystic known

as Black Elk (1863/1950) who had cruised along Buffalo Bill during his Wild West Show, depicted

one of his UFO encounters, proving that such meetings were not just some isolated event,

but they were instead embedded into the lives and culture of Native Americans.

�So, when I went to vision quest, that disk came from above. The scientists call that

an unidentified flying object, but that�s a joke, see? Because they are not trained,

they lost contact with the wisdom, power and gift.�

�So that disk landed on top of me. It was concave, and there was another on top of that.

It was silent, but it lit and luminesced like neon lights�Then these little people came,

but each little group spoke a different language. They could read minds, and I could read their

minds. I could read them. So there wa silent communication. You could read it, like when

you read silent symbols in a book. So we were able to communicate�They are human, so I

welcomed them. I said, �Welcome, Welcome��

There�s no denial that all Native American tribes maintain a vigorous bound with Mother

Earth. They refer to themselves as the �original caretakers� of the Earth and condemn the

Western path towards inevitable destruction.

According to them, the bond between this planet and her children has been severely disrupted,

and this uprooting phenomenon humans are experiencing right now is the exact reason why it has become

so hard to maintain connection with the Star People.

At the same time they offer a key to unlock this ancient and sacred union between the

ETs and ourselves. It comes in the form of a global awakening, a shift in consciousness

that would make us once again worthy of reaching out (or being reached) by these advanced beings.

This may sound appealing and somehow realistic in the future, but I�m afraid that all Earth�s

creatures are in the same boat, and the powers that be have all the necessary means to blow

an irreparable hole through the deck, serving us all a one-way-ticket to the blackness of

space.

What is Aperture in Digital Photography? What is Depth Of View?? Aperture Explained!! - Duration: 3:00.

Hey guys Brainy Here and welcome to another Tech Tips Video!

In this video I wanna talk about Aperture and explain the concept of what exactly aperture

is.

So if that's what you're here for, stay tuned and let's get right into it.

Aperture refers to the opening of a lens's diaphragm through which light passes.

It is calibrated in f/stops and is generally written as numbers such as 1.4, 2, 2.8, 4,

5.6, 8, 11 and 16.

So when you see those specs on a digital camera or phone camera that's basically what they

mean.

The lower f/stops give more exposure because they represent the larger apertures, while

the higher f/stops give less exposure because they represent smaller apertures.

Think of those numbers as places in a race.

The prizes are bigger for each place and the best goes to number one, while the largest

number would get the least amazing prize.

Every camera that we know of today is designed like human eyes.

The cornea in our eyes is like the front element of a lens – it gathers all external light,

then bends it and passes it to the iris.

Depending on the amount of light, the iris can either expand or shrink, controlling the

size of the pupil, which is a hole that lets the light pass further into the eye.

The pupil is essentially what we refer to as aperture in photography.

The amount of light that enters the retina (which works just like the camera sensor),

is limited to the size of the pupil – the larger the pupil, the more light enters the

retina.

One important thing to remember here, the size of the aperture has a direct impact on

the depth of field, which is the area of the image that appears sharp.

In other words, Depth of field is defined as "the zone of acceptable sharpness in front

of and behind the subject on which the lens is focused."

Or in other "other" words how sharp or blurry is the area behind your subject.

A large f-number such as f/32, (which means a smaller aperture) will bring all foreground

and background objects in focus, while a small f-number such as f/1.4 will isolate the foreground

from the background by making the foreground objects sharp and the background blurry.

Every lens has a limit on how large or how small the aperture can get.

If you take a look at the specifications of your lens, it should say what the maximum

(lowest f-number) and minimum apertures (highest f-number) of your lens are.

The maximum aperture of the lens is much more important than the minimum, because it shows

the speed of the lens.

The minimum aperture is not that important, because almost all modern lenses can provide

at least f/16 as the minimum aperture, which is typically more than enough for everyday

photography needs.

And that's just about it for this very short explanation on Aperture.

Places That'll Pay You To Live There - Duration: 5:15.

If you're looking for a change of pace and you're tired of your one-horse town, why not

pick up and move?

"So long, stinktown!"

Sure, moving is stressful and expensive, but there are a lot of places around the world

that want to make it easy for you.

How easy?

Here's a look at some places that will actually pay you to live there.

Alaska

Do you like dark cold winters and tons of barren land?

Well, move to beautiful Alaska!

Due to the climate and remote area, Alaska is happy to incentivize new citizens to move

to the 49th state, and not just moose and bears.

The Alaska Permanent Fund takes money earned from the state's reserves of oil and gives

it back to the community.

Each and every Alaskan gets almost $2,000 from the government every year just for living

there - even babies.

New Haven, CT

When you picture Connecticut, you probably imagine rich folks discussing their latest

yachting adventures.

But the city of New Haven, home of Yale, has had its share of problems, getting ranked

the second-most dangerous mid-sized city in America in 2014.

So what's the best way to change the city's image?

Pay other, better people to come live there instead!

Yup, New Haven has a program that can offer up to $80,000 to folks who want to live there,

and send their kids to local schools.

That is, if you can dodge bullets long enough to collect.

And once you've saved that much money?

Maybe the yacht thing isn't such a pipe dream after all.

Detroit

Everybody knows Detroit is in trouble, but it ain't down yet, despite the clown attacks.

Citizens are determined to make it better one gigantic Robocop statue at a time.

And part of that is a scheme to give new residents up to $20,000 in forgivable loans if they

buy property downtown.

Even renters get a bonus $2,500 towards their first year's rent.

And longtime residents also get subsidized to stay where they are and upgrade their homes.

Though the press on Detroit is usually dire, it's a city full of wonderful architecture

and history.

It could be the next place hipsters decide to inhabit, so get in while the price is still

good.

"I'd buy that for a dollar!"

Baltimore

Another city that has a bad time with crime is Baltimore.

It's listed as the seventh-most dangerous city in America, so you can see why people

aren't clamoring to start anew there.

Plus, The Wire wasn't the greatest tourism ad for the city.

But Baltimore wants to change and wants you to do it with them!

Baltimore will give you $5,000 to buy a house anywhere in the city, and if it's an abandoned

house, they'll bump that up to $10,000.

Sure, it sounds like the plot to an episode of Scooby Doo, but free money is free money.

Most of Kansas

"Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore."

Nobody seems to be in Kansas anymore, and the state wants to change that, which is why

towns and counties across Kansas are giving away free stuff to convince people to move

to America's bread basket.

For instance, towns like Lincoln and Marquette are offering free land to anyone who wants

to build a home and settle down.

And if you settle in one of the state's 77 Rural Opportunity Zones, you'll get state

income tax waivers for up to five years or student loan repayments of up to $15,000.

Toto approves.

New Richland, Minnesota

If you like the idea of free land, but would prefer to live in a place that's freezing

much of the year, check out New Richland, Minnesota, where as long as you build a house

within one year of getting the deed to the land, you get the land for free.

The 1,200-person town has golf course and sits near St. Olaf Lake.

So, if you're a Golden Girls fan, you can build near where Rose grew up for free!

Talk about your perks.

"if I had to listen to one more story about the colorful people of St. Olaf I think I'll

explode."

"Otis T Minkee was St. Olaf's librarian."

"Kaboom!"

Pipestone, Manitoba

The folks up in the municipality of Pipestone in Manitoba, Canada don't just want you to

live there, they also want you to start a business there.

For a deposit of just $1,000, you can reserve a lot of land which will then cost you just

ten bucks as long as you build on the plot within a year.

But if you want to start a business, the perks get even bigger, as the city offers grants

of up to $32,000!

Sweet deal.

Maatsuyker Island, Tasmania

If moving somewhere in the US or Canada isn't drastic enough for you, how about Tasmania?

"Come to Taz-mania, Come to Taz-mania"

Close enough.

Maatsuyker Island off the coast of Tasmania is about as far away from the US as you can

get, and every so often they offer up the dream life for people who enjoy isolation

and meteorology.

That's because they need someone to live in and run the lighthouse, meaning you not only

get a free home out of the deal, you also get a job as lighthouse keeper!

Unfortunately, some lucky sod already claimed this opportunity of a lifetime, but keep an

eye out just in case the current resident leaves….

Or goes insane.

Pitcairn Island, South Pacific

If your true heart's desire is telling you to live on one of the most remote islands

in the world, you might want to consider Pitcairn Island, which was famously settled by the

mutineers from the HMS Bounty.

With a population of 50, the citizens want to entice new people to live on their island

paradise.

So, each immigrant gets completely free land just for showing up to this two-mile island.

So far, few have taken the bait.

As of 2015, only one person applied to move there.

Maybe it's because there's one general store in town that's only open three days a week

and you have to order anything else you need from New Zealand, which is 3,000 miles away,

three months in advance.

But if you like a nice beach and a lot of solitude, go ahead and join the fifty or so

residents of Pitcairn Island!

Why Clay From 13 Reasons Why Looks So Familiar - Duration: 4:39.

Netflix's newest fan favorite is the heartbreaking 13 Reasons Why. A teen drama based on the

2007 Jay Asher novel of the same name, the series features a ton of fresh-faced actors,

including one you'll swear you've seen before: Dylan Minnette, who stars as Clay Jensen.

Why is he so familiar? Here are thirteen reasons why ...

Saving Grace

Minnette first made his mark in 2007 as a series regular in this TNT crime drama, where

he played another character named Clay: the young and oh-so lovable Clay Norman, the nephew

of the strung-out, self-destructive detective played by Holly Hunter. Minnette's mature

performance earned him back-to-back Young Artist Awards in 2008 and 2009.

Lost

His next big TV role was short-lived, but what a role it was: in 2010, Minnette played

David Shephard, the sort-of son of Jack and Juliet, on the controversial sixth and final

season of the time-hopping ABC adventure drama Lost.

Fans likely remember Minnette from the episode "Lighthouse," in which Jack sits David down

for a heart-to-heart …

"I will always love you. No matter what you do. In my eyes, you can never fail."

Too bad Minnette's character only existed in a post-death metaphysical realm ... but

that's just how Lost rolled.

Let Me In

Here's where things get dark. Minnette entered the horror scene that same year as a bully

named Kenny in this adaptation of the 2008 Swedish vampire flick, Let the Right One In.

"Hey little girl."

His chilling portrayal of the pre-teen tormentor earned him two more Young Artist Award nominations.

The kid's on a roll.

Awake

Audiences definitely woke up when they first saw Minnette spinning through the air in this

short-lived 2010 NBC police procedural. Starring Jason Isaacs Awake followed an LAPD detective

who's torn between two different timelines after a car accident launches him into the

supernatural.

Minnette plays Britten's son, Rex, appearing only in what's known as the "green reality,"

the world in which Rex survives the tragedy and his mother doesn't. Apparently he has

a gift for playing teens who may or may not really exist...

Prisoners

In 2013, the then 17-year-old Minnette joined an impressive ensemble in this thriller centered

around one father's primal reaction to an unthinkable crime.

Minnette plays Ralph Dover, son of Hugh Jackman's Keller, who abducts and tortures a man he

suspects has kidnapped his daughter. With his fellow cast members, Minnette won the

National Board of Review Award for best ensemble.

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Minnette's next project was a leading role in this 2014 family comedy. Minnette played

Alexander's older brother, Anthony, an accident-prone teen dealing with the drama of an on-again/off-again

relationship with his girlfriend, while also struggling to pass his driving test ...

"I'll be your driving examiner."

"I don't think he passed."

Oops. But check out that Clay Jensen-esque forehead bandage: How uncanny is that?

Goosebumps

Minnette jumped into the spooky world of R. L. Stine in this 2015 comedy as Zach Cooper,

the fictionalized Stine's unassuming neighbor. The film follows Zach as he settles into his

new, small-town Maryland home after moving from the Big Apple … and accidentally brings

Stine's scary stories to life ...

"Maybe they're friendly?"

"Not friendly! Definitely not friendly!"

Don't Breathe

Minnette's most recent appearance on the silver screen was in this claustrophobic 2016 horror

gem as Alex, one of three friends who gets trapped inside the house of a terrifying character

known as "The Blind Man." Alex struggles to make it out alive, facing multiple deadly

obstacles on his way.

But that's not all...

Still don't know where you've seen Minnette? How about his 2009 appearance as Danny Carter

in season four of Supernatural? Or as a teen accused of murder on the supernatural

drama Medium?

Or maybe his 2012 appearance on Law & Order: SVU as a troubled teen entangled in a sexual

assault case? What about his role as the icy supervillain Blizzard on Marvel's Agents

of S.H.I.E.L.D.?

Or maybe you saw him get whacked on the heart-stopping political drama Scandal, where he played the

president's doomed son? That'd be lucky 13.

There you have it: thirteen reasons why Clay from 13 Reasons Why looks so darn familiar.

The Dress Shape That Looks Good On Everyone - Duration: 4:16.

Finding the perfect dress shape to flatter your body type may seem like a tall order.

But believe it or not, there is one silhouette that looks good on practically everyone.

And as a bonus, it's totally effortless to wear and versatile enough to work for every

occasion.

Yes, really.

Meet the A-line dress, also known as the fit and flare.

Just like its name suggests, this particular garment shape features a fitted bodice, a

tapered waistline, and a skirt that gradually flares out from the hips all the way to the

bottom seam.

The A-line is a truly fantastic, as it offers ease of wear and will score you major fashion

points thanks to the timeless and effortlessly chic look it helps create.

So what's the deal with this dress?

Let's take things from A-line...to Z.

The term 'A-line' was first coined by iconic haute couture designer Christian Dior, although,

at the time, it didn't accompany the exact same dress shape that's associated with the

name today.

Dior's A-line dresses still had the same snug waist and flared skirt effect and made their

debut in Dior's Spring 1955 collection, which was simply titled "A-line."

Needless to say, it was the beginning of a silhouette style that would span the generations.

Three years after the A-line's debut, Dior's assistant, fellow French designer Yves Saint

Laurent, took up the mantle of his mentor's creation.

Following Dior's unexpected death in 1957, Laurent was tapped to become artistic director

of the fashion house.

He was the one who designed the A-line as we know it today.

The designer's first solo collection for the House of Dior, dubbed "Trapeze," featured

a dress of the same name which bore a striking resemblance to the fashion philosophies of

his predecessor.

And thus, the A-line survived its originator and became a staple of the style world forevermore.

So what is it that has helped this style withstand the test of time and maintain its popularity

and versatility for decades?

The fact that it creates a show-stopping, ultra-feminine hourglass figure without the

constraints of a tight bodice certainly has something to do with it.

Those with a pear shape are often drawn to the flare of the skirt, which accentuates

and places the focus on the waist, drawing the eye away from the bottom half of one's

body.

Less curvy women, on the other hand, appreciate the illusion of curves that the nipped-in

waist creates.

The narrow shoulders of the dress and flared skirt also help the torso look smaller and

more lean.

Another convenient aspect of the A-line option is that the length of the skirt can be tailored

to perfectly fit anyone's height and elongate the body.

Whether it be mini or midi, the skirt shape can be customized to flatter all types of

silhouettes.

Petite ladies can opt for a mini version and their legs will instantly look longer, while

taller women will find a midi version, which hits at the knee — or right below it — to

have the same elongating effect with the perfect amount of coverage.

The A-line dress also comes in a floor-length maxi version for an extra touch of glam.

A-line dresses also come in countless colors and fabrics, which means there's truly a perfect

one for every occasion.

Thinner cotton or polyester blend versions in solid tones can be just the thing for casual

summer outings with friends or — dressed up with some key accessories — they can

become ideal for office wear.

In winter, A-line dresses are easily layered over stockings and under fitted blazers, making

them a great choice year-round.

Meanwhile, bolder occasions, be it date night, a birthday party, you name it — call for

bolder colors and patterns, which are also readily available.

But it doesn't stop there.

A-line dresses can also make the perfect wedding dresses.

An A-line wedding dress can help ensure you're comfortable all day long.

Rather than having to constantly worry about everything being in place, you'll be able

to focus on more important things, like eating cake and dancing the night away!

To this day, countless brands, from fast fashion retailers to haute couture houses, continue

playing with the A-line shape.

Louis Vuitton, for example, went as far as to close Paris Fashion Week in Fall 2012 with

help from one dominant silhouette — yep, the good ol' A-line.

Meanwhile, the Yves Saint Laurent label remains one of the biggest proponents of the style,

which makes total sense considering its namesake was the one who helped launch the trend into

existence in the first place.

The Real Reason We Don't Hear From Demi Moore Anymore - Duration: 7:37.

After a difficult childhood marred by cases of alcoholism and suicide in the family, Demi

Moore left behind her life in a New Mexico trailer park in pursuit of the bright lights

of Tinsel Town.

Three decades and three husbands later, Moore's name is known the world over, but her face

is rarely seen anymore.

Considering her undeniable talent and her impressive acting resume, Demi Moore should

be headlining blockbuster movies every year.

Instead, she seems to only be appearing in below-the-radar projects — when she appears

at all.

So what happened?

Press pressure

Moore has had a feisty relationship with the press right from the get-go.

The actress has battled with the media over her public image on countless occasions over

the course of her career, even during her earliest years in showbiz.

"And we didn't anticipate press being there so we weren't prepared.

So we were walking to our car and there were so many flashes going off we couldn't even

see where we were walking."

The stunning young starlet first came to the attention of audiences as a member of the

so-called Brat Pack, starring in '80s coming-of-age classics like St. Elmo's Fire and About Last

Night.

Trouble was, she hated being labeled as a brat, even if it was meant as a status symbol.

At the time, she complained,

"I find it embarrassing, hateful and demeaning.

The man who wrote that seems jealous because we are young and talented, so he filled the

article with lies.

He implied we all hate each other."

Box office boom...to bust

Unlike some of her Brat Pack buddies, Moore's career was still going strong as the '90s

rolled around, becoming one of the biggest stars in the world with her performance opposite

the clay-molding spirit of Patrick Swayze in Ghost.

Things took a turn for the worse at the midpoint of the decade, however, once The Scarlet Letter

barely managed to claw back a fifth of its budget.

"In my opinion, good things come and go just like bad things come and go."

Then, the Razzie-favorite Striptease became Hollywood slang for box office bomb after

a horrible performance the very next year, and G.I.

Jane was a resounding disappointment at the box office as well.

Things only got worse as the years ticked on, with 2010's The Joneses representing rock

bottom for the former star as far as theater receipts go.

The film only managed an embarrassing $1,355 per screen average in its second weekend.

Salary suspension

It might seem hard to believe now, but at one point Moore was Hollywood's highest paid

female performer.

After the success of Ghost, the raven-haired actress negotiated an eye watering $12.5 million

paycheck for Striptease.

So when that film flopped hard, the general consensus was that Moore was not worth the

money.

She didn't see it that way, however — and neither did Ridley Scott.

The director signed off on an $11 million pay packet so she would star in G.I Jane.

That would be the last eight figure sum she would receive, as studios became wise to her

salary demands, especially after she started to gain a reputation as an unbearable diva

behind the scenes.

The media started nicknaming her "Gimme Moore," highlighting the crazy and often ridiculous

requests the actress was said to have been making of movie studios.

She once asked for a private plane to transport her from her secluded Idaho home to New York

City and then reportedly demanded that Sony swap it for a larger one just so that she

didn't have to stack her luggage.

Talk about a ridiculous rider.

For her part, Moore has defended her notorious tantrums as her just being a perfectionist.

"I don't understand why it's so difficult to confirm appointments."

"I know I'm so sorry Miranda, I actually conf.."

"Tales of your incompetence do not interest me."

Sex symbol slump

In her younger days, Demi Moore once said, "The quickest route to power for an actress

in Hollywood is to hook yourself up to someone who can put you in a good position, and make

yourself a sex object."

That approach might have worked at the time, but even the best looking actresses can only

bank on being pure eye candy for so long.

The older Moore got, the more she tried to hang on to her good looks, reportedly turning

to plastic surgeons for help.

Various tabloid reports claimed the ageing actress spent as much as $400,000 on a full

body makeover that included collagen injections in her lips, porcelain caps on her teeth and

liposuction on her stomach, thighs, and bottom.

When asked about the sudden differences in her appearance, Moore flat-out denied she

had ever gone under the knife, telling reporters in Paris that she didn't like "the idea of

having an operation to hold up the aging process… the scalpel won't make you happy."

But that was at odds with what many experts noticed about her appearance.

Even despite her alleged surgical intervention, though, Moore has gone from a precocious twenty-something

to middle age before America's eyes and has blamed ageism for her reduced starpower of

late.

When she hit 44, she opened up about how difficult it was to be a middle-aged woman in the film

industry, saying,

"It's been a challenging few years, being the age I am.

Almost to the point where I felt like, well, they don't know what to do with me.

I am not 20.

Not 30.

There aren't that many good roles for women over 40.

A lot of them don't have much substance, other than being someone's mother or wife."

​Breakup blues

While Moore recovered well after her publicized divorce from Bruce Willis, she has seemingly

struggled to keep it together since her six-year marriage to Ashton Kutcher came crashing down.

Trouble was brewing amid allegations that her much younger husband had been cheating

on her with women closer to his own age.

The final straw came when 22-year-old part-time model Sara Leal spilled the beans about sleeping

with Kutcher on his and Moore's wedding anniversary, prompting the actress to release a statement

confirming their split.

She said,

"As a woman, a mother and a wife there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred,

and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life."

​Family squabbles

Moving forward has proven difficult for Moore, and family troubles have only added to her

isolation in recent years.

The actress relied heavily on the three daughters she had with Willis in the aftermath of her

very public separation from Kutcher.

But she was said to have been contacting them so regularly that they reportedly considered

taking out a restraining order against her.

"You know what?

Life is life and it's messy and it's complicated and you know what?

It takes guts"

Perhaps part of that distance is owed to the fact that Moore has once again faced substance

abuse issues in recent years.

In 2012, she was reportedly rushed to hospital after allegedly suffering a seizure when high

on laughing gas and prescription pills.

Not all press is good press

Moore was briefly back in the headlines in 2015, though for all the wrong reasons.

In July of that year a 21-year-old man attended a party at Moore's Beverly Hills home and

drowned after falling into her 10-foot-deep swimming pool while drunk.

The actress was away visiting family at the time of the accident, but the fact that a

wild party had led to a death on her premises only reinforced studio fears that she was

a liability.

Comeback?

Demi Moore returning to Hollywood isn't only possible — it is totally in the cards for

2017.

A source close to the star revealed to Radar Online she's running low on money and has

decided to take her recent casting in hit Fox show Empire and turn it into a full-blown

comeback.

The source revealed that she's currently looking at new scripts and,

"She knows that she needs to get back into the game to survive and has rehired her team

of managers and agents to help her with another big break."

Looks like we'll have more Moore sooner than anyone would've guessed…

"Exciting, isn't it?"
