Waching daily Jan 20 2018

hello everyone and thanks for tuning into the financial investor channel my

name is Brent and today we're going to be doing our weekly recap for January

15th through the 19th we're going to be talking about the three main indexes and

how they performed we're also going to be taking a look at my portfolio just

performance-wise what did I do up or down we're gonna take a look at

payouts for the week I was paid out dividends and I got a sizable you know

payout by Merrill edge for being with them for 90 days so depending on however

much money you transferred from one broker into theirs or a few transferred

just money and began investing with Merrill edge then they would pay you out

a you know a specific amount so I was able to pick up a hundred and fifty

dollars Friday and was able to put that to work so I'm gonna be talking about my

weekly trades and then after that I have six stocks I'm gonna be covering one of

which was predicted by someone on there to have been you know it was predicted

to be bought out by Amazon on my facebook I shared out that post saying

you know if anyone's gonna get bought out by Amazon I believe it would

definitely be Kohl's so we're gonna be taking a look at Kohl's Target and a few

other ones they've done really well year-to-date but they were did pretty

terrible back in 2017 some of them so let's go ahead and get into it we will

be starting off our video by talking about the indexes but of course I like

to take a look over at CNN Money Market and I always like their graphs a little

bit better so we shared a very strong Monday and then leapin it into Tuesday

all three indexes were super high opening on Tuesday before falling back

and having that negative day that was a bit of a

you know it was it was needed after last week's gains and how far along we've

actually come here to date so sp500 0.86% this week three out of the five

days positive year-to-date up five point 11 percent Dow Jones again 3 out of 5

positive days up five day change 1.0 four percent at a year-to-date

of five point four seven so they are in second place and of course n number one

we have the Nasdaq three out of the five days positive with a five day change of

1.04 so this is actually the same as the Dow Jones but they are up here to date

at six point two seven percent so very nice on the indexes they are all up very

nicely my portfolio I had a bit of a rough week last week but after you know

after last week sort of recovery and then kind of picking it up this week I

was able to increase my portfolio by three point one four percent this week

so that definitely puts me right around not I don't believe I'm actually caught

up with the S&P 500 right now year to date or the Dow Jones but I'm juggling

right belong right behind it now weekly dividends here I have this split up here

so I have mine on retirement account so I was paid out on the 15th of January I

was paid out by entertainment properties $15.98 that was my only dividend I

received this week so third week of the year I'm excited that this is nearly

sixteen dollars so sixteen dollars in a week it could pay for my lunch if I

wanted it to you know I go out buy salads every day for three bucks that's

fifteen dollars for five days so this could potentially pay for a week of my

lunch if I needed it to but I did it so I was able to take that and reinvest it

so this added to my total year-to-date of ninety five dollars and fifty-seven

cents and dividend so far in 2018 so my weekly trades this week this is a little

bit tougher you know normally I do my trades I have to correct that my trades

are normally done inside my Roth IRA this is to avoid paying capital

taxes or just taxes on my capital gains and dividends but I was trying to move

my reality income from my non retirement account into my retirement account so

what I did is I saw that this was having a bit of a pullback so I decided you

know what I'm gonna sell my 68 shares at 53 dollars and 40 cents I'm still a long

term in a reality income but I wanted to move it into my retirement account that

way future dividends are not having to get taxed at my regular income but

instead the funds they got they were in that kind of settlement period where I

couldn't transfer them over into my retirement account I couldn't transfer

the money into my retirement account so then I waited for them to kind of trend

down a little bit and I was able to buy them back at 53 dollars and 30 cents

this provided me a difference of six dollars and 73 cents that was you know

basically I was able to average down during this trade although I did create

a taxable event I was able to make a difference of six dollars and 73 cents

I'm gonna continue to kind of play with reality income I talked to my broker

they said if I want to try and sell this position and move my funds so here I was

one in the sell my o and move it into my Roth IRA my plan did not work and I had

to buy back on a cheaper price averaging down my initial cost gaining some money

out while buying the exact same shares I'm gonna be calling my broker next week

to see if I can sell release my funds to be moved into my Roth IRA and then rebuy

Oh at a lower price so I'm gonna wait a little bit next week until they're kind

of having you know up and down day I will sell my my own reality income at

where I believe will be a good position or all trending back down and then I'll

call my broker up said hey can I get my money transferred into my Roth IRA

they'll make the transfer and then I'll try and buy back into reality income at

that lower price again averaging down creating another taxable event and then

but these are tax losses but I can't defer them because I'm buying the stock

back in within a 90-day period so that's my whole plan with you already reality

income and EPR I'm just trying to sell those and move those into my retirement

account so as you know I was paid out nineteen dollars or $15.98 this week I

also got my hundred and fifty dollars for being with Merrill edge for 90 days

so with that money and the money here I made during the difference here so six

dollars and 73 cents $15.98 and 150 dollars I was able to buy

three or four additional shares of reality income at 53 dollars and 39

cents so here you can see that I bought these back at 53 dollars and 30 cents

but I bought these ones at 53 dollars and 37 39 cents so this sock was

bouncing quite a bit for a while between fifty three forty and fifty three thirty

I was able to pick these up pretty cheap it's actually been a little bit lower

than that believe it was on the 53 20s for a little bit so I'm picking more

shirts up I mean here you can see that based off these four shares my primary

goal right now is to move my REITs into my Roth IRA use this discount time to

buy great long-term dividend okay so my note here basically means that I'm using

this current time and reads you know all real estate I can't think of it real

estate trust funds boy I cannot think of reality I got reality income in my head

now real estate investment trusts they're at a look at the actual acronym

so real estate investment trusts they're on a downward trend right now but I

leave you know o is always a great long-term buy and hold stock for me it's

been paying out dividends for you know it's been paying out difference for more

than 22 years more than 20 years but it's had that continued growth for over

20 years it's also been able to recover during recessions that has a very nice

diverse portfolio it has dividend

so I can buy and hold the stock for the long term they recently increased

certain that their their dividend payout by like a point zero one you know it's

only a penny but that increase depending on however many shares that's an

additional fifty cents per paled and such so it's definitely nice to kind of

get so here you can see my total profit for my weekly trades was just being able

to get that difference of six dollars and 73 cents with the four shirts that I

purchased of reality income this will increase increase my monthly income by

eighty seven cents or if you multiply eighty-seven by twelve months that's ten

dollars and forty four ten dollars and forty four cents that I will make in a

year base off just my four shirts that I bought into my Roth IRA so this is

definitely a very win yes move right here and that is basically it as far as

my article goes of course you don't have my disclaimer here at the bottom of not

a financial adviser tax professional all the information provided in this video

is just my opinion in for fun okay so moving over to our discussion stocks

we're gonna be taking a look at Home Depot Kroger Target and Kohl's now there

was a prediction made that target would be the one that would be bought out by

Amazon my prediction was if any one he was gonna get bought out it would

definitely be Kohl's so here I took Home Depot is just here this is one that I

had been looking at it's really not I had looked at Home Depot and Lowe's

when I was looking into you purchasing one of these stocks and Lowe's has such

a nice good opportunity backward and Amazon bought Whole Foods and everybody

got scared that I had bought it and lows but I don't know how I would consider

buying it into Home Depot this is one that's trendy and its 52-week high I'd

say I was just using this a bit ago so let's go ahead and look at its price its

yield its p/e ratio and its price to book value and let's take a look just

over the last three years that's a lot of information up on there so what can I

remove let's go ahead and get rid of that Book value we'll just look at the

price and dividend yield right now so dividend yield is at a 1.7 percent this

is the lowest it's ever been or Bassets for about two years January of 2016 was

the last time that this stock was at a 52-week high where the yield was at one

point seven seven what happened back in January of 2016 you can see that I had

this stock fell from around 135 all the way down hitting around 115 so that's

not to say that it's going to happen again but it could possibly happen you

know this stock is trading at a 52-week high so it would be very dangerous to

get fully invested in the Home Depot at this time just because because it is

trading that nearly you know 52-week high its yield is at a very low point

just looking at what happened back in 2016 there was a very sharp drop over

the next few months and then it kind of just continues on

you can see it it happens it happens so that's all I'm gonna be talking about

Home Depot Nexus Kroger so Kroger Target and Kohl's Kroger I don't see them

getting bought out by Amazon at all they have done very positive your today they

are up eight point two seven percent I think this is great I had looked at

Kroger to add it to my portfolio I thought it would a very great stock its

ticker symbol is K R one thing I didn't like on it you know it didn't have a lot

of dividend growth over the last night near or didn't have dividend growth for

a last ten years so I didn't want to add it as a long-term buy and hold and then

I believe it's dividend growth so yeah it's dividend growth see it went

from twelve cents over thirteen cents so it's a pretty slow grower we could see

that it increased its dividend by half a cent so if we take the current dividend

payout subtract it by the original dividend payout and then divide by the

original different payout in times of by hundred they went out four percent I

like to have dividend growth runs five to ten percent I think that's a great

dividend growth and then this one I could see they have a very nice payout

ratio but why are they not increasing their dividend growth why are they not

increased in their payout ratio by say five seven percent instead of that slow

they have the the earning potential to be able to pay that out so that was

something I had looked at on them let's see here Kroger are taking a look

here more at Kroger so this stock has trended down quite a bit hit it support

line back in say December they were at say $18.00 range so they have definitely

jumped back up but look at where they were at a point they were reaching $42

so this is one their price does look I could you know what barn I'm down it's

definitely on its way back up but what caused it to kind of fall out of favor

over the last few year alone so here within a year 2017 was not a great year

for this stock so I would definitely want to research why this stock fell out

of grace you know what causative form was that free cash flow wasn't net you

know revenue was income over the last five years you can see that this stock

is actually pretty flat as far as net income goes and free cash flow

normalized so that kind of percentage-wise there are ups lately but

you know this is over a five year period so if you just take this is up 3% per

year average for the net income 2% for revenue and 1% for free cash flow so

very low numbers there on Kroger the next talk you know this is one that I

think a lot of people are buying in just because if the prediction turns out to

be true at target they will have got a very nice increase over the last you can

see let's check out the year-to-date some both of Kohl's and target here we

can see that back in January of 2018 it probably bottomed out here right

around that 67-65 dollar point that prediction came out this guy's you know

I don't know I didn't read much into it if if he's a holder of target you know

he came out saying that he's predicting Amazon's gonna go out and buy target and

he's probably you know has a huge amount of

you know he could hold quite a bit of target and it was from then on this

stock had been getting a lot of volume trades and has brought this thought up

very nicely nearly 20 percent year-to-date whereas the S&P 500 is that

five percent so you would have got nearly what five times what your current

richard has target higher goals so target does up you know four times what

you would have got with the S&P 500 and they pay a very nice dividend targets

dividend yield I believe was around five percent we can go over to our

fundamentals again that's fine and we'll put in TGT whoops

so we're looking here there we are so over the last five we'll look at three

year period you can see that they are up very nicely seven $1.10 they were down

in the $50 range so that is a very nice game back from July of 2017 would have

been the optimal time to a bought the stock this is where the yield was

exceeding 4.5% which is extremely high for target you can see that target it

normally hovers between a three like a 3.0 yield and it may go down to like a

2.5 so these 2017 was probably a terrible year for target because Amazon

the announcement of you know they're buying whole foods that caused the stock

to plummet people were asking themselves is it going to be like a lasting thing

target and of course it hit it support it's definitely got rallied behind you

know a lot of people picked up the stock believe in the prediction possibly or

just believe it in the stock as a whole and I think I believe actually when I

looked into the stock in the past they are up

I'll say in five years okay they are down in that income they're down in

revenue their free cash flow is slightly up so not a great stock that I would

look at really over the long term yeah go back to normal line so we can see

that the price to book value is actually still pretty high three point eight a

little over what a value investor would look at we can see that their p/e ratio

in a sixteen point three seven whereas over the let's see ten years what's

their average around okay so their average is around twelve point five ish

you can see here it does trying around twelve point five there are times where

it does exceed you know doubling almost over thirty but it definitely does have

a bit of a pullback and comes back down so that is target and then of course

Kohl's I think if any you know if Amazon was gonna buy any stock out there I

think it would be Kohl's this Kohl's does really well Kohl's and Target let's

see here KSS whoops there we go Kohl's so Kohl's

taking a look at their chart over the last five years we can see that they

they also had a bit of a rough 2017 let's just look at three-year period we

can see 2017 started right here fell all the way down bottom doubt right around

July June July period if you were to paint this up in June July you would

have got a yield over say it looks like almost six percent if not right around

that and then you could have easily picked this up from a you know forty

dollars and rode all the way up to its where it's sitting at sixty seven

dollars and fifty four cents now over five year period when's the last time

that again you know this is very similar to Home Depot when's the last time it's

been at this price target you know it's peaked out before before coming back

down back in 2015 so is this could continue to rally and

increase but you can see that you know if you're trying to buy the stock for

the growth or the yield you're not gonna get it right now the yields actually at

a low point where it was back in say 2015 timeframe and then you can see what

happened to the stock price and then they yield kind of shut up after that in

2016 so it does it definitely does these wave so the price goes up comes back

down hard price goes up it comes back down hard price goes up what's gonna

happen next so those are the four stocks kind of wanted to cover with you guys as

well as my weekly recap as far as the market goes and then my portfolio

changes so hopefully if you guys were taking a look at Home Depot Kroger

Target I still think you know what targets a

bit overpriced these are all kind of a bit overpriced I should try and look for

ones that are good entry points but that's what my 5 stocks next evidence is

for you know I try and look for random fire stocks next David it's coming up

next week and then look at some entry points like CBS right now it looks like

a great entry point that's when I was looking at and of course I'm right now

targeting a bunch of REITs inside my real my rara my Roth IRA just so I can

get that dividend income built up have that growth in there and not have to pay

taxes on it till never because I'll also I won't withdraw until 59 and a half so

⚔️Conqueror's Blade Beta Announced (Jan 26th) "Will It Be Worth It?" - Duration: 5:21.

What's up everyone, my name is Ser Medieval and today I'll be talking to you about an

upcoming action RPG game with RTS elements called Conqueror's Blade.

We were recently notified that the open beta for this game starts on

January 26th and I felt encouraged to give my take on it from what we've seen so far.

To give insight on what this game is - I'll read the description.

The sandbox medieval warfare game recreates vast medieval civilizations

and showcases their legendary weapons and fighting styles in a massive, immersive arena

of war in which players command generals and their legions in pursuit of victory.

There are several Generals in the game, each featuring different armaments and fighting

styles.

Generals may deploy multiple weapons with a unique set of skills

that can be acquired and unlocked as players level up.

Player's armies consist of Legions that can vary in size from 16 to 40 men.

Each Legion features different skills and takes on a unique battlefield formation.

The legion's special skills yield high damage or special effects,

like Calvary charges or archers flaming arrows.

Some skills may be used only in particular formations, such as the spear-shield's advance

and retreat can only be cast in turtle formation.

Now when I first found out about this game and took a look at it I instantly got a vibe

of Dynasty Warriors mixed with Mount & Blade.

With some For Honor sprinkled in.

But immediately after receiving the announcement e-mail for the open beta I started doing some

digging for more gameplay videos and found that this game looks oddly similar to a far

less known game that was released on steam in 2016 through Early Access called

Tiger Knight, Empire War.

But like a more modern and in-depth version.

This game expands much more on the combat side of things, graphics, and features as

opposed to Tiger Knight.

But it does worry me because of what Tiger Knight

turned out to be.

Will this game fall prey to the same issues Tiger Knight continues to suffer from to this

day, or will it take the concept and renovate it into something new?

There's some very big issues with Tiger Knight that I can already see this game potentially

having if the developers aren't both careful and dedicated

to seeing it succeed, and if it's not well received by the community to ensure it has

a steady population.

Tiger Knight's matchmaking was incredibly exploitable.

The way it works is the troops you bring into battle have levels, you start with level 1

troops like everybody else and as time goes on you will be able to purchase higher

leveled troops with better gear and stats.

Your equipment system is tied to this.

So when you purchase new upgrades for your troops, you get those for your character as

well.

The queue system tries to balance this by ensuring people with

level 1 troops wont end up in a game with people that have level 10 troops for instance,

they try to keep it either at level 1 or level 2 or 3 max.

The problem with this is you can still equip gear from a level 10 troop unit

on your character and queue with level 1 troops to gain a significant advantage over the other

players.

Imagine a level 27 guy in full plate and a big broad axe being dropped in your

game with level 1 troops while you're just starting out and have rags that are barely

holding onto your body.

See the problem?

This was a huge annoyance because the queue times were abysmally long, probably due to

the fact that players could do this.

When queue times started to get longer in the higher leveled queues,

players could simply switch to lower tiered troops and find easy games.

This looks like it could happen in Conqueror's if they don't

develop a system against it.

What's worse is the seemingly pay to win cash shop they had in Tiger Knight.

You could buy experience boosts, equipment, and even powerful generals for your army which

may not seem as bad.

But the fact that you could buy higher level troops.

That's more like you've got one foot lifted on the other side of the line and are ready

to cross it.

This is something I really hope conqueror's blade does not adapt.

I have yet to find any information regarding it's payment model.

But I'm starting to lean towards free-to-play, which worries me because of what could potentially

be in the cash shop.

Which it would probably have being ftp.

Another thing about Tiger Knight is the optimization was terrible, not to mention the servers.

If you played everyday you were guaranteed to get at least 1 game where someone or a

few people on your team or the opposite side would disconnect in the middle of a match.

And more than likely you could easily fall prey to massive lag spikes

not to mention desync from the other players and troops which provided an extremely annoying

experience in a game like this.

No localized servers, latency off the charts.

Not to mention the developers just seem to not even care about the players, supposidly

banning people who give constructive critism to the game.

It's very sad to see when stuff like this happens

and makes it very difficult to defend a game or game developer when they exert this type

of behavior to their supporters.

The combat was pretty lackluster as well in my opinion, I'm an avid Mount & Blade fan,

I grew up on the original, Warband, Warband Mods, Viking Conquest,

and am now looking forward to Bannerlord.

But I had a very hard time enjoying the combat in Tiger Knight, that surprised

me.

All the issues I've had with it could've played a part but the combat just seems to get extremely

boring and feel almost pointless after a while.

On that aspect I think Conqueror's Blade has already improved by implementing what

looks like a more dynasty warriors esque form of combat,

very flashy and gritty and bound to keep players occupied.

The troop formations, variation and graphics seem to have a massive

one up on Tiger Knight as well.

But what do you think?

Do you think Conqueror's Blade will prove to be a proper alternative to Tiger Knight?

Or fall prey to the issues of it.

Let me know what you think in the comments below, and as always, thanks for watching!

"That's your given name?"

"Yeah."

"Why is it in quotes?"

"I gave it to myself.

It's given to me, by me."

She itches to escape Sacramento and her all-girls Catholic school

for a place where she can be more herself.

"I want to go where culture is, like New York."

"How in the world did I raise such a snob?"

"Or at least Connecticut, or New Hampshire, where writers live in the woods."

"You couldn't get into those schools anyway."

We watch her battle with her mother, test out different friends and boyfriends,

go to prom and try to figure out who she is.

"One pack of Camel Lights.

A scratcher.

And a Playgirl."

"ID?"

"It's my birthday today."

One of the most powerful things about this film is its thesis --

that love is really attention.

When reading Lady Bird's college essay, the principal of her school compliments

how clearly Lady Bird's love for Sacramento comes through in her attention to detail.

She only realizes how much she does love her hometown after she leaves.

Everything else we see in this story is also informed by

this poignant observation that love is a form of attention,

which isn't always easy or pleasant.

Lady Bird's mother Marion pays nonstop attention to her,

and it can feel overbearing, judgmental, or burdensome --

but it is how she loves her daughter.

When Lady Bird ditches her best friend Julie for a rich, popular girl

who can help her get close to a new crush,

the betrayal is again about attention.

If we take our attention away from someone, we are essentially taking our love away.

So more than anything -- in both its form and its content, its style and its story --

Lady Bird's message is to value what surrounds you, to truly sweat the details of your life.

The film itself is the result of great attention paid by its writer-director, Gerwig.

It's a period piece of sorts -- the "period" being the not-so-distant year of 2002.

To capture this sense of recent cultural history, Gerwig and her DP Sam Levy

aimed to give the film the visual quality of a memory.

It was shot on digital, but they worked to emulate the look of Xerox copies

and early 2000s yearbook photos --

images not overtly nostalgic, but that feel at a remove.

Inspired by Sacramento's rivers, they incorporated blues into the color palette,

and the blues are paired with pastels to recall paintings of everyday objects

by Northern California's Wayne Thiebaud.

And then there are the "period" details in the costumes and soundtrack

to remind viewers of the early 2000s at every turn --

from the secondhand Doc Marten Mary Janes and puka shell necklaces,

to key events in the Iraq war playing out on the TV,

to Lady Bird's defiant admission that she does really like

Dave Matthews Band's "Crash Into Me,"

no matter how uncool the song may have been.

"Crash...into me."

Lady Bird is a classic coming-of-age tale, capturing the universality of the teen experience

and its sometimes comedic obstacles.

"I just wanted it to be special."

"Why?

You're going to have so much un-special sex in your life."

"[Screams]"

Think Stand by Me, Dazed and Confused, Mean Girls, Superbad or Moonlight.

Yet Lady Bird avoids clichés in a well-trodden territory

by giving us really specific characters and moments,

like the football coach trying to direct the school play.

And it finds its originality by changing something key

in the structure of the coming of age tale.

We watch the story unfold from two sides --

from the perspective of the teen and from the perspective of a parent learning to let

go.

"If you're tired we can sit down."

"I'm not tired."

"You were dragging your feet."

"You're so infuriating."

"Please stop yelling ."

"I'm not yelling."

"Oh, it's perfect!"

"Honey, do you love it?"

The result is a mother-daughter love story between Lady Bird and Marion.

What's most compelling about this pair is how antagonistic

their relationship might look from the outside,

yet how bonded and attentive they are to each other.

"Does mom hate me?"

"You both have such strong personalities."

Their relationship is what Gerwig is saying love looks like:

it's not very pretty or perfect, but it perseveres.

Gerwig has said that Lady Bird is not autobiographical,

but she sets the story in familiar territory.

She grew up in suburban Sacramento, attended Catholic high school,

and moved to New York City.

One of her major inspirations in writing about Sacramento

was the writing of Northern Californian Joan Didion,

specifically, the 2003 essay collection "Where I Was From."

Gerwig describes her discovery of Didion's work as "spiritually seismic...

as shattering as if I'd grown up in Dublin and suddenly read James Joyce."

Gerwig's gift to the place that formed her is this intimate portrait of

"the Midwest of California," as Lady Bird calls Sacramento.

"When I started writing the movie with the intention to make something about

what home means and what family means

and how it doesn't really come into focus until you're leaving.

Sacramento is where I grew up, so I felt like it had not been given its proper due in cinema."

Finally, much of the story's greatness comes down to the character of Lady Bird herself.

She's larger-than-life in her brave self-assurance and determination to be herself,

whoever that is.

She's kind of a badass.

"...and not expect everybody to do every -- ah!"

Lady Bird represents how a lot of misfits or confused teens might have felt in high

school,

even if we didn't all act on our impulses in the way she does.

And she reassures us that everything will turn out alright in the end.

Along with its many gifts, Lady Bird may resonate with viewers even more

due to the context of its release.

It comes at a time when women are openly challenging the kinds of male stories

that typically dominate the screen.

And in this politically contentious era,

it's refreshing for so many people to agree on the quality of a film

that's not only written, directed by and starring a woman,

but also about a female character like Lady Bird who forges her own path

and makes mistakes along the way.

Lady Bird's positive impact will live on -- sending a message to young women

that it's okay to not have everything figured out --

even after you become an adult.

"Yeah, well, you know your mom's tits?

They're totally fake!"

"She made one bad decision at 19!"

"Two bad decisions!"

How To Reduce Contour | Youtube 2018 - Duration: 5:20.

hi this video is about how to reduce contour my name is Melissa van Dijk and

I'm a professional makeup artist and if you liked you can join me every Sunday

on my Facebook page where I'm doing live-makeup tutorials and everything is down

below in the description box and now without further ado let's get right into

this video so sometimes contouring your face can be difficult and it also can be

tricky especially if you're doing it for the first time so I'm going to show you

now two different techniques how you can reduce your contour and now we will move

on to the first technique so now I'm going to apply a little bit more of my

contouring powder to make sure that I have applied a little bit too much

because now I'm going to show you how you can reduce it

first you can take your powder brush and with no product on it and you just can

blend it over your contouring so that it will take off the pigment of your

contouring so that you just turn it down this is now one technique on the how to

it reduce your contour and let's move on to the second technique so if the first

technique didn't work for you then you can take your powder brush

again and with no product on it and some translucent powder and now you're going

to dip the powder brush in some translucent powder and this will just

fade the color so that the pigmentation of the color of your contouring gets

reduced by just applying some translucent powder on top so I'm going

to dip a little bit into translucent powder and I'm dusting the excess off

and I'm just going to blend it over it and this will just fade the color and

will turn the brownish shade into a little bit more of a beige shade because

it just takes off the color I'm now always just dust the excess off and you

can dip in the translucent powder again

and you just need to reduce your contour and this was also for your

forehead for your jawline for the rest of your face I'm just going to

demonstrate it now on my cheeks and now I just like to share a tip with you guys

and this is when you have applied your contouring to a low or at the wrong

place so I'm going to demonstrate it at my cheeks so as you can see I just have

applied to contouring to low and now I like to reduce it and this works the

best if you still have your Beauty Blender with some foundation left or

your makeup brush with some foundation left and you're going to swipe it over

the part which you just do not like and which you want to get rid of so it's

always important that you keep your foundation until the and you're done

with your makeup because this way you always can correct any mistakes when you

have applied your makeup so I'm going to take the Beauty Blender I'm just going

to wipe it away so that there's no product anymore which I don't like so

this part right here I'm going to cancel out with a foundation

and then just swipe it on your back of your hand so that you're not adding any

product to the part which you do not like and now you can go back with your

big powder brush and some translucent powder and pet it on top so that you

will set your foundation and then you always can reapply your contour

and now I'm going to take my contour brush again I'm going to dip into the

contour and I just like to get this part right here a little bit even so that it

melts in with my foundation but I'm not going to drag it too low because that's

what I just have reduced

and this is also a beautiful way if you want to reduce your contour when you

have applied it at the wrong place so this is now how you can reduce your

counter and I actually showed you three different ways on how you can reduce

your contour also how you can get rid of your contouring if you have applied it

at the wrong place so if the first technique didn't work for you try the

two other ones and I just hope that you can try it at home and that it's a

useful tip for you just let me know in the comments if you have any other

questions and thank you so much for watching and thank you so much for

supporting me and if you like to see another video on how to contour a

What Is The Daily Meal in Australia - Duration: 2:55.

What Is The Daily Meal in Australia

I live in Australia. These are my family daily basis food, the presupposition is I cook:-) These are my cooking photos. Breakfast.

I prefer one piece of vegemite toast with mashed avacado, sometime with fried egg or poached eggs. If it's fruits season, we might have some mangoes and strawberries with yogurt.

If I don't cook, most time just yogurt. My husband doesn't like breakfast. Lunch.

Sandwiches or noodles, most time we eat near work place. If I stay at home, I might cook some dumplings(I made some and put in fridge). At the weekend we might have some sausages.

Dinner. Most time my husband prefer steak or lamb, I prefer some fish and salad, sometimes pasta or fried noodles. If I don't want to cook, we might just have Dominos pizza or red rooster.

We don't have dessert, because I am trying to avoid too much sugar. But sometimes we still have some ice cream or a piece of cake to satisfy my stomach.

But these all depends on if I cook:-).

FDR elected to unprecedented fourth term - 1/20/1945 - Duration: 1:34.

- Today in military history, 1945.

President Franklin D. Roosevelt is

elected to his fourth term in office.

In the midst of the Great Depression,

FDR took office on March four, 1933.

He broadcast live Fireside Chats on the radio

from the White House, rallying American support

for his New Deal, which would launch sweeping economic

reform to help address the financial crisis.

He was re-elected in 1936, continuing to stabilize

the American economy, and provide relief,

recovery and reform.

In 1940, he was elected for an unprecedented third term,

becoming the only U.S. president to do so.

During his third term, Roosevelt declared that France and

Great Britain were America's first line of defense

against Nazi Germany, and he began a series of

measures to help mitigate Nazi aggression.

In 1941, the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor,

drawing America into World War Two.

By 1944, the U.S. was deeply involved in the war,

and FDR was elected president for his fourth term,

with Harry S. Truman as his running mate.

FDR served as Commander In Chief, until his death

on April 12th, 1945, when he suffered a

massive cerebral hemorrhage.

On March 21, 1947, congress passed the 22nd Amendment

to the U.S. Constitution, which imposed a two term

limit to the presidency, officially restoring the

convention George Washington had set 150 years before.

BREAKING! Trump LAYS WASTE To Dems DUBIOUS Scheme For DACA DREAMERS!!! - Duration: 19:40.

BREAKING! Trump LAYS WASTE To Dems DUBIOUS Scheme For DACA DREAMERS!!!

Did the president finally learn a valuable lesson last week?

In that the Democrats will "NEVER" compromise, will "NEVER" negotiate in good faith,

and will "NEVER" support the president's agenda, even on issues they once supported.

The Dick Durbin incident is indicative of how the left plans on dealing with the Trump

Administration.

If this weekend's comments by the president that the DACA deal is "'probably dead"

is an indication of how the president intends to finally deal with Democrats going forward

then hopefully he's learned his lesson well, in that the Democrats aren't looking for

a "DACA fix" that allows the president to claim a victory, they want to simply continue

"blooding him up.'

On Sunday the president indicated that aside from the DACA deal being dead, he surmised

that the Democrats "don't want to help" DACA recipients.

The firestorm created by Democrat Dick Durbin is actually a textbook play that the discredited

senator has been playing for decades, in which he simply fabricates an issue, the good senator

has a long recorded history of making false accusations, once even raising the ire of

President Obama.

Trump on Monday morning reverenced once again his comments on Sunday that the Democrats

don't want a bipartisan compromise on DACA or any immigration deal, moreover the remark

attributed to him that certain 3rd world countries were "s**holes," the president claims

he never made, furthermore the 5-other individuals present claim they never heard the president

make those remarks.

However, the damage has already been achieved.

The president reiterated once again that he's "ready, willing and able to make a deal

but they don't want to.

They don't want security at the border, they don't want … to stop drugs, they

want to take money away from our military which we cannot do,' Trump continued in

a pair of tweets.

'My standard is very simple, AMERICA FIRST & MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!'

The reality is Democrats are actually panicking over the continued economic boom, in which

almost 70% of the voting public polled said the economy was either "good" or "excellent,"

and perhaps that's the reason why Democrats tagged Durbin to create a diversion, which

is the standard playbook of identity politics that the left engages in.

Do you believe this type of dirty politics might actually succeed or is the voting public

finally wise enough to see it for what

it is?
