Waching daily Oct 19 2017

These days, it's easy to hop online and instantly access the complete life history of any famous

person who ever lived.

And even some, it turns out, that probably never lived at all.

Yes, despite all the legends and stories, it turns out that some of the biggest names

in history may have been totally made up.

Here's a look at some famous people who may never have been real in the first place.

Mulan

Disney introduced audiences around the world to the legend of Mulan, but she was already

a big deal in Chinese literature.

The tale of a warrior's daughter dressing as a man and fighting in her ailing father's

place is a timeless bit of badass girl power.

Unfortunately, there's not much evidence that a real Mulan ever existed.

The story of Mulan first appeared in the sixth century, not in the history books, but rather

in an epic poem fittingly called "The Ballad of Mulan."

The story didn't really become popular until a pair of plays written in the sixteenth and

seventeenth centuries made Mulan a household name.

Which is ironic, because one of the playwrights changed her family name to Hua because

it was more poetic — something that probably wouldn't happen if this was the story of a

real person.

Sorry, Mooshoo!

"alright that's it.

Dishonor.

On your whole family.

Make a note of this, Dishonor on you.

Dishonor on your cow."

Robin Hood

The legendary English folk hero Robin Hood is well-known for robbing from the rich and

giving to the poor, residing in Sherwood Forest with his gang of outlaws, and wooing Maid

Marian.

The stories about him are certainly fictitious.

But could they be based on the exploits of a real person?

Or was Robin Hood totally made up?

Identifying a single person as the basis for the famous outlaw is nearly impossibly difficult.

That's because, as the stories about him began to grow in popularity in the 13th and 14th

centuries, random English outlaws began to call themselves Robin Hood.

So the historical records are littered with accounts of these many different Robins Hood.

Robin Hoods?

Robins...Hoods?

These guys.

Nevertheless, some historians speculate that Robin Hood may have been based, in part, on

nobleman Fulk FitzWarin III, who rebelled against King John, one of Robin Hood's foes.

If he was the basis for Robin Hood, then a name change was a good decision, as "Fulk

FitzWarin" doesn't quite have the same ring to it.

Pope Joan

The story goes that in the year 857, the Catholic Church received a major shock when the Pope

suddenly and unexpectedly gave birth during a processional.

It turned out that an exceptionally talented woman had disguised herself as a man, entered

the priesthood, and risen through the ranks to become Pope — all without anybody guessing

she was female until the whole pregnancy thing gave it away.

The story of Pope Joan has been held up for centuries as an amazing tale of faith and

feminism, but it may in fact just be a story.

Though it was believed to be true for centuries, resulting in hundreds of documents detailing

her life, not to mention paintings, sculptures, and even what many say is a carving of Pope

Joan in St. Peter's Square itself, the Catholic Church's official stance is that she's an

urban legend.

And legitimate scholars back them up.

Professor Valerie Hotchkiss, of Southern Methodist University, believes Joan's story comes largely

from a single book: History of Emperors and Popes, written by a monk named Martin Polonus

centuries after Pope Joan's supposed life and death.

And once that book got out, everyone just assumed it was true, making it history's first

known example of #FakeNews.

King Arthur

Unless you've been living under a rock, you're probably familiar with the Arthurian legend.

You know, guy finds the magic sword Excalibur, invents the bro code with his posse, and then

finds the Holy Grail while creating the utopian society of Camelot?

"Camelot!"

"Camelot!"

"Camelot!"

"It's only a model"

"shh!"

Well, while these fantastical stories are clearly a mishmash of folklore, some believe

the legends of King Arthur are based on a real person.

For instance, some historians suggest the Roman military commander Lucius Artorius Castus

as a possible candidate.

The King Arthur movie from 2004, starring Clive Owen, follows this line of reasoning

and depicts him as a Roman soldier.

Others suggest Riothamus, king of the Britons during the fifth century.

It's just as likely, however, that King Arthur and Camelot are completely made up.

Which is probably just as well.

"No, on second thought let's not go to Camelot.

It is a silly place."

5 Ways Introverts Can Use Body Language to Feel Confident - Duration: 4:06.

5 Ways Introverts Can Use Body Language to Feel Confident

Everyone agreed that body language is one of the powerful communication tool, and we

often used it whether we realize or not.

However, many people thought that they have to be extroverted to use body language freely,

which is really impossible for introverts.

This is not really the case though, for introverts who don't say much, body language can be

especially useful.

Introverts can master body language and nonverbal behavior to strengthen their interactions

and gain confidence.

So in this video, I'm going to share with you how introverts can use body language to

feel confident.

If you find this information is helpful to you,

make sure to like this video and subscribe to this channel, so you won't miss any of

our interesting updates in the future!

1.

Body Language And Emotions

Body language is not just about how you appear on the outside.

It is also about how you feel.

Researcher Amy Cuddy from Harvard Business School found that standing in power poses

for five minutes can increase your testosterone, the power hormone and lower your cortisol,

the stress hormone.

So changing your body to be more powerful not only helps other people see you as powerful

and confident, but also makes you feel more powerful and confident.

2.

Take Up Space

One of the basic concepts of Power Posing is to take up more space in your environment.

This helps you claim territory and assert your confidence.

So instead of crossing your legs or tucking in your shoulders and head, try being expansive.

Keep your head high, your shoulders loose, sit larger in your chair and walk with long

strides.

3.

Don't Cross Your Arms

Defeated or low power poses lower your testosterone levels and increase your stress hormone cortisol.

So avoid crossing your arms and tightly crossing your legs.

Keep your trunk wide open to people around you.

Remember, this shows you are approachable to others and keeps you in a more open-minded

attitude.

4.

Don't Check Your Phone When You Are Nervous

Introverts tend to check their phone when they are nervous, but this puts you right

into defeated body language.

So try to avoid checking your phone when you want to feel confident and again try to relax

and be expansive.

I know someone who carries a newspaper around with him because that is an easier way to

take up space.

5.

Use the Triple Nod

The triple nod is the non-verbal equivalent of the ellipses.

It is a nonverbal cue for someone to keep talking.

If you are introverted and aren't great at making conversations, you want to encourage

the person you are speaking with to keep talking.

Once they are done speaking and pause, nod three times in quick succession and they will

often continue.

If not, you can pick up where the conversation left off, but this is a great way of showing

engagement and lengthening a discussion.

Well, that's the 5 Ways Introverts Can Use Body Language to Feel Confident.

Simply being aware and wanting more open body language can help you engage people and have

better connections.

Really cool information isn't it.

CAMILA MENDES - Before They Were Famous - RIVERDALE - Duration: 7:36.

Before Camila Mendes was cast in the iconic role of Veronica Lodge, for the hit show,

Riverdale,

Before building up almost 800 thousand followers on twitter, and 3.9 million on instagram

Before taking home the 2017 Teen Choice Award for Choice Scene Stealer

Camila Mendes grew up travelling all over, finally settling down in southern florida,

where she attended a fancy private school with an excellent theatre program.

But things weren't always perfect.

Her parents divorced during her childhood, and like her character on Riverdale, she was

slut shamed as a young teen.

But hopefully she didn't handle it in the same way...

Whats going on guys?

My name is Michael McCrudden, documenting the life and career of Camila Medes prior

to fame, here for you on Before They Were Famous.

I've covered a ton of other actors and actresses in the past but this Riverdale show, it's

so hot right now!

Who else from the show do you want me to document next?

Sound off in the comments down below.

(Graphic Intro)

Camila Carraro Medes was born on June 29th, 1994, to Brazillian Parents, and grew up alongside

her sister, Kiara Moreno.

While she was born in Charlottesville, Virginia, she moved around frequently throughout her

childhood.

The family moved back and forth between Virginia and Atlanta, Georgia, before finally settling

down in Orlando, Florida.

Then, her parents got a divorce, after which Camila, Kiara and their mom moved to Brazil.

They lived their for a year, and I assume that's where Cami picked up the ability to

speak fluent Portuguese.

After that, they returned to Florida, and bounced between Coral Springs, Pomano Beach,

Fort Lauderdale, and Miami.

Camila dealt with the constant moving like a champ.

She said,

"I created this idea in my head that no matter where I go I'm home because I am – my

body is my home.

I got a tattoo below my right breast that says, 'To build a home,' because that's my

goal in life--to build a home within myself."

Let's take a look at that tattoo, shall we.

Camila was around 8 years old when she started getting into acting.

She did plays for class, and she performed in plays that her sister would write.

She also watched a lot of TV growing up, and was a big fan of The OC, Gossip Girl, and

Weeds.

When the family settled in Plantation, Florida, her mother put her in school with a strong

theatre program, called the American Heritage School.

That's a private school with a student to faculty ration of eight to one.

The 40 acre campus is equipped with courtyards, an olympic size swimming pool, engineering

and robotics labs, a mock courtroom, outdoor classrooms with a certified wildlife habitat,

media centers, and a center for the arts.

Seems like an ideal place to go to school, but in an interview with Teen Vogue, Camila

revealed that she was often the victim of cyber bullying and slut shaming, saying,

"These two girls who were a few years above us put out this video on Facebook, and they

were just like, 'Who are freshman sluts?

Cami and Kylie.'

They just kind of made this video talking about how much we were sluts...Both of us

were in relationships, and not even hooking up with anybody but our loved ones."

Despite having to deal with stuff like that, her school's execellent theatre program helped

prepare her for an advanced education in acting.

Camila attended New York University's prestigious Tisch School of the Arts.

Some of this schools notable alumni include, Taylor Schilling, Christopher Guest, Michael

C Hall, Peter Kruase, John C McGinley, Debra Messing, Josh Radnor, Pedro Pascal, and Rainn

Wilson.

In September of 2013, Camila started dating a guy named Ian Wallace.

She posted a picture of herself with him on instagram in 2016, captioning the photo...

"Three Years with this charmer.

Grateful for the endless inspiration and unconditional love that you give me.

I love you so much, Ian Wallace, and I am luck to fully experience just how rare and

special you are.

Happy Anniversary, love."

But the photo has since been deleted.

So, maybe they broke up.

If so, that's a shame.

He sounded like a great guy.

She finished her classes in December of 2015, but didn't technically graduate until May

of 2015.

While still in school, she gained representation by the Carson Kolker Organization, and landed

her first acting job was in a 2016 commercial for Ikea.

Let's take a look.

That same year (2016), while still in college, Camila would be cast in the role of a life

time.

Back in 2013, Warner Brothers had begun developing a feature film called Archie, based on Archie

Comics.

After several delays and priorty shifts at warner brothers, the project was reimagined

as a television show.

Fox was the first network to pick up the series in 2014, but they never moved forward with

it.

The CW was the next to bite, and officially ordered a pilot on January 29th, 2016.

And at some point, Netflix acquired the exclusive international broadcast rights.

The casting process for the show began in November of 2015, and was apparently pretty

ruthless.

In an interview, Camila's cast mate Lili Reinhart, who plays Betty, said,

"We all worked our asses off, and it was a nationwide search that took months and months

of casting.

I was lucky enough to be cast as one of them.

I was told no at first, and so was Camila, and so was KJ."

The casting process formed tight bonds among the Riverdale stars, and on instagram, Camila

is frequently posting photos with her castmates.

Needless to say, Camila got the role of Veronica, and filming took place between March and April,

2016, in Vancouver, Canada.

In the spring of 2016, Camila was signed by CAA, and graduated from Tisch.

Riverdale premiered on the CW on January 26th, 2017.

The series was well received by audiences, and

won two saturn awards, and six teen choice awards, including Choice Scene Stealer, which

went to Camila.

Season two of Riverdale premiered on October 11th, 2017.

As for the rest of the story, well, we'll have to wait and see because this is before

they were famous.

Voyo i7 Hands-On Review & Unboxing - Duration: 16:06.

So this is the Voyo i7 that I have here and as the name applies it is an i7

laptop this one so it has a 15.6 inch screen 1080p it has 8 gigabytes of RAM

and the CPU is the i7 6500 U and the GPU uses as an nvidia 940 M X so that's the

same spec you get on charmese me notebook air 13 the ultimate version

they like to call it but it comes out to be quite a bit cheaper this model it

sells for around about 560 u.s. at the time of this review so the specs there

aren't the latest it also has a one terabyte hard drive which of course is

going to be slow for an operating system but luckily it does have an m2 PCIe slot

in this so you'll be able to upgrade to an SSD if you're not happy with running

off a hard drive which I personally won't be because I find that to be way

too slow especially in 2017 so the specs include wireless AC but it could

actually be Wireless in I need to confirm that it has a 13 thousand

milliamp hour battery on there which hopefully is gonna be good for about

seven hours for me to build backlit keyboards and plenty of ports on it as

well including an SD reader so let's get this one unboxed go through my initial

first look and then later on I'll have my full review of course so this

notebook did come double boxed and it went via England with DPD to me to Spain

I didn't have to pay any taxes on this but it did take about 17 days to arrive

from first all the time to actually getting it on my doorstep okay so it is

well padded in there and we can see that the power supplies on the side and it

does have an EU plug so the output voltage is 19 volts three point four two

amps and the tip itself positive in the middle negative on the outside five

point five millimeters in diameter quick Windows 10 user manual that's in Chinese

in English a little warranty card and some useful reminder just about charging

it first before you use it laptop weighs in at one point nine five

kilos so thickness it comes in to be around about nineteen millimeters now

that's not counting that rubber foot there with the rubber foot then it's

about 24 millimetres so along the bottom there are two downwards firing speakers

we have some vents there and in intake for the fan so it's just got one

fan on it now the lip just like the bottom made out of a metal that's an

allied have used and it seems reasonably fun and there's a little bit of flicks

and they're not too bad I did notice that it's got this funny like little

plastic lip here for opening it up and there we have the backlit keyboard and

the touchpad there so reasonably large sized touch base hopefully it's a

precision one so you can see above the keyboard there we have the power button

which is on the far right hand side that's circular button some status LEDs

and there are shortcuts there for your volume mute disabling the wireless

touchpad putting into sleep and the screen brightness controls including

another button there for the backlighting on that keyboard have a

look at the keyboard flex not too bad the keys feel okay of course I have to

type on it and I'll report back on that in my full review but it's nowhere near

the quality of the xiaomi mean notebook pro's keyboard the screens got a screen

protector on it that's not even designed for the screen but i think it's just a

course to protect it in transit webcam and what looks to be a microphone there

at the top and this is the furthest that the screen will recline the hinge seems

good it's quite stiff it's firm doesn't feel loose at all which is positive so

on the left side we've got dcn two USB 2.0 ports headphone jack and then our SD

card reader now it'll probably be USB 2 speeds this one because this looks like

it's all connected up with a USB 2 hub then on the right side type c port which

may be USB 3.1 i hope it is i hope it does support video out and charging or

at least support charging and data then we have an hdmi port which is upside

down and then 2 USB 3 ports so it turns out to be a little bit thicker and

slightly longer in length than my me notebook pro ok so the build quality so

far doesn't seem to be amazing it's definitely not premium but it's ok for

500 and 60 us that this cost more or less so far

but I have seen some minor little imperfections

for example I've noticed this right here there's their little scratches along the

plastic trim that's just above the keyboard and below the screen there

think it's being scratched by the metal bezel that's going around the screen and

yes those bezels are exactly thin either so gaining access to the internals

wasn't too difficult just how to remove all of the screws on the rear now

there's a couple of things I wanted to point out in here that the battery

capacity according to what's on here if you believe that is 48 watt hours which

I happen to believe it's not a huge capacity is it so right under this

ribbon cable here that goes to the USB 2 ports there there is the PCIe slot there

so that's m2 spec and where the screw is is for the 20 to 80 size right there and

we've also got at the top here you can see a 2.5 inch hard drive right there so

that's a one terabyte one it'll probably be 7200 rpm or even 5400 it's gonna be

slow you really want to install an SSD in there so we have one cooling fan with

two copper heat pipes you can see running along here now for any models

out there already seen room that if the thermals turned out to be a little bit

poor we can probably put thermal pads along this whole copper pipe here and

having it come in contact but the rear alloy lid and that of course could help

transfer a little bit of heat away from the chipset but it will of course heat

up the bottom of the laptop now there are couple of positives here too that we

can change the wireless card so it's got an Intel 31 60 it is wireless AC so

what's being listed on the website is incorrect I didn't believe it had

wireless in to start with cause that to me seemed crazy and then the other one

as well to that we can upgrade the RAM which is really good something you can't

do on a lot of laptops nowadays but it's only a one single sodam slot so it's

double data rate spec it's a double data rate three sorry low powered and the RAM

I can see is rated to 1600 megahertz so you could in theory put faster RAM in

there plug-and-play stuff or increase the capacity if you're not happy with an

8 you can put a single one 16 gigabytes stick in there and then either side of

course we've got these because that do look rather cheap to me

overall the internals look fine it doesn't look super high-quality as

expected for this price range but it is good to see that we can upgrade the hard

drive at an SSD we can also easily repay stit we can also change the wireless

card in RAM so that's good now the slot looks like it's going to

support set at 3 and PCIe SSD s I'm gonna try my samsung 960 Evo hopefully

it will be running at times for speeds I do not like this design choice of having

the ribbon cable going over a hot SSD now if you've ever used these SSDs

before which I have the 960 Evo's and pros can get really hot too so let's

find out later on after a couple of years or even years use if it's going to

end up causing damage okay so what about the screen well don't have some good

news at all here they had to cut corners somewhere didn't they with this hardware

yes it's a TN panel I mean looking at it straight on now this has had obscene

brightness it looks fine it's anti glare but look at this colors they're starting

to shift and that that's just that's horrendous in a typical TN panel so

you're gotta be looking at it straight on so if you wanted to use this laptop

for showing people photos or watching videos with your partner or something

like that then it's gonna be a little bit difficult because you have to look

at it both of you straight on here but I mean other than

that yeah I mean it's ok but TN panel a little bit hard to swallow here I mean

even at the price of this this laptop here I know deal-breaker isn't it so

here's the model of that TN panel so if you want to Google that find a little

bit more information about it now I have been just using the touchpad a while it

seems okay but it's not definitely the most accurate it's not using Windows

precision drivers either you can see that's just the plain settings we get

with Windows but it is an eland branded one and we do have some control so we

can tweak a few things here with the gestures MOLLE finger ones that you want

to do so you've got your zooming scrolling rotation all of those options

are there so better than the super low-end touch pads we get but still

definitely run-of-the-mill kind of touchpad so far in my use of it

so it isn't all doom and gloom I'm running a benchmark here with crystal

dis mark of that samsung 960 Evo and it is running at its full speed here so

it's PCIA times four so that is really good to see or you can use a set of

three one if you've got a set of three SSD now I did boot this PC of course

using the included one terabyte hard drive which you have about 96 oh no my

sorry not 96 but 910 gigabytes free so that is good but of course it is so slow

it but time took about like 30 seconds or even more and even to pull up the

device manager here to look at everything took a little bit of time so

you can see the processor there yes it's the Intel i7 6500 you know that's got a

maximum turbo of 3.1 gigahertz it's a dual core with four threads so the new

eighth generation ones that I've just been testing out they've bumped things

up a little bit because they've doubled the amount of cause they're no longer

dual cause now but they've switched over to quad cores so the performance is a

lot better there now just to gauge the performance I have run a couple of

benchmarks here well Geekbench is benchmark so the CPU school is their

single core score multi-core score and then the GPU so that nvidia 940 MX gets

an open CR score of 23,000 the new one the new model which is the MX 150 on the

Pascal architecture that gets about forty thousand or around thirty-nine

thousand so quite a bit faster there and this is probably slower because of this

if you have a look here you can see that just to confirm that yes the memory type

on that GPU is double data rate three and not double data rate five so we're

missing out on some of that memory bandwidth there which only 14.4 now they

don't seem to have any bloatware whatsoever it's just got the Elan

drivers on there for the touchpad and then this thing called control center

which I happen to like what it is is a basic application to control the fan

speed so at the moment it's in auto mode and if you put it into quiet mode then I

can already hear that fan is starting to ramp down so it's just shifting the RPMs

for certain temperatures so in quiet mode it'll lower the RPM so it doesn't

make so much noise on cool mode it will be a little louder but keep it a little

bit cooler but thermals and all that will

be up-and-coming probably in my full review I was around the Haven benchmark

as you can see here this score was not brilliant it's quite low lower than

their mean notebook ear 13 because of that slower RAM on the GPU now do have

HW info running and then when we have a look at the temperatures you can see the

GPU has reached 69 70 degrees this is after all the benchmarking I've just

been doing now my initial testing phase and the CPU is well 70 degrees with just

that single fan so that's looking promising the thermals just above the

keyboard getting a little warm there checked it

before was about 39 degrees so it's not too bad and this is what the backlit

keyboard looks like so it's reasonably bright individual it up those keys all

of them there and there's two settings slightly dimmer or this one here which

is the full brightness so I have done a bit of typing on this keyboard now and

it's actually quite good it's bit better than I thought not a bad keyboard to

type on same goes for the touchpad now after using it for a little while it's a

lot better than those entry-level super budget trackpad to get so I mean it's a

proper brand from Elan and overall yeah the keyboard is good trackpad is fine

too so two downwards facing speakers let's have a listen to them

so they do have a bit of volume to them but they definitely lack bass they're

not quality speakers they sound very flat indeed so you're probably gonna be

disappointed if you wanted some nice punchy sounding speakers not these ones

so this is about my further tip now to get Linux to boot on it from the USB

pendrive that I hope you can see inserted there it won't work for some

reason it just goes over into there one key recovery system that voyer have set

up to completely restore that hard drive that's on there so it is failing to boot

for some reason and also note there you can see that the SD cards they stick out

like this which isn't too great so you can probably see break them off if you

forget to pull it out and put it into a bag or something and the other thing to

to point out that the type-c port does not seem to be USB 3.1 I didn't think it

would be it won't actually take power as well and it does have a power symbol

next to the USB symbol there but for some reason no charging on this so it

really comes down to one thing so far in my testing of this laptop here that it

has a deal-breaker with that TN panel a lot of people are not going to like that

now it looks perfectly fine as you're probably seen in some of my video here

when you're looking at it directly so most of the time I've had the camera

pointing right at it so we're not getting those bad viewing angles which

you know they are bad when the screen goes down a little bit you can see what

happens there that it shifts out that it really is just the only kind of thing

that's really bad okay the speaker's there Tony

the build quality of course is not at all at the same level as the Xiaomi me

not Book Pro which is in the background there but that's another class of laptop

that's a premium one this is a budget one so it's to be expected so the

keyboard is actually turned out to be quite good to type on it's backlit

touchpad is fine as well now there's a few other areas that answer great for

example the SD card sticks out but then there's those positives Rams upgradable

we can add your own SSD you can change the wireless card if you're not happy

with it and of course you can even put an SSD swap out that one terabyte drive

so the base configuration coming with the terabyte drive with the operating

system on it it's very slow and sluggish and not good at all I don't like that

so you probably going to have to invest then getting an SSD if you end up

getting one of these if you're not worried about that screen that is so it

really comes down to it do I need to do a full review of this one here we

already know it's got that big calm with the screen how do we also know that the

performance of it is going to be less than the mean notebook here because of

the RAM on that GPU so it's not double data rate five it's double data rate

three sure we might be able to overclock it a little bit but I did do a little

test and when I went up to about 350 megahertz on the RAM it ended up causing

a blue screen and crashing windows completely so don't think we can really

push it too much higher thermals seem okay

battery life is so far just looking at what the estimates have been from my

battery bar pro meter that I have in there we're looking about five to six

hours so it's not really that good so for 560 us yeah you know it all comes

down to again that screen is that going to be a deal-breaker for you do you want

this power if not you're probably better off saving up and getting Shelby's mean

notebook ear which has a similar spec the i7 model but it is a little bit more

expensive but you'll find the GPU is a bit faster and if you can even say about

even more money if you've got about 900 u.s. to spend then of course there is

that Xiaomi me notebook pro that's in the background there
