I know you're wondering and asking yourself what do those guys down there
and the South do during the winter time for work well guess what I'm about to
show you now I'm taking you on a typical winter day at blades of grass lawn care
all of this work can actually be done I would say two or three days but
there's no fun in that then what am I to do on the days that I don't have
anything else to do as far as work you can chill it and work on this and
working down and work on the other well guess what nah... I have to at least come
out once a day and do something out there in order for me to stay sane in
the brain I can't do it guys it's fun to not do anything and get paid for certain
amount of time but after that it becomes and it gets pretty old so therefore this
is not exciting work guys but or gives you a look inside of what
we do on a daily basis so today on average on average we knock out
five to six properties a day during the winter time and mainly what it is is
ensuring that the property is tidy make sure the property's neat you know blow
the leaves pick up the stikes that kind of thing because the neighborhood we go
into they are really peculiar about how their property looks so therefore
the following is a day in a life of a lawncare crew at blades of grass lawn
care during the wintertime long title huh
alright guys enjoy!
so guess what guys I'm heading back home I left the freakin keys to my Titan at
the house so here you go raw and cut a day in the life of lawn
care crew and blades of grass lawn care where the owner fumps up and i have
quests waiting on me but that's alright he's still getting paid hi on my way
home to pick up the keys and then back now the good thing is i'm only uh i'm
only two and a half three miles from home so should take me a couple of
minutes back
alright guys so we are at the first property and just take a look real quick
that's what it's kind of look like and as you can tell there isn't too much to
blow and clean except for some sticks and a couple of things so basically what
we do right here we're gonna blow it off and clean it up real quick and keep it
moving and at this time of the year there isn't
too much to do so next time we'll go ahead and trim the shrubs and a little
bit of this a little bit of that but we always come every two weeks and there's
always something that can be done and to justify the customer paying you for
service rendered alright we're not going to show you a little bit of blowing
we're about to do but I will show you real quick the final results I stay
tuned alright so we are finished in thank you sir that's what it looks like
and again we're not filming too much because the homeowner is at home and
that's it ten 15 minutes blow everything up and make it look nice and neat all
right let's move on to the next
hi guys on this one again you've seen it before we're gonna just blow and I'm
gonna spray go ahead and just spray some we control and then next week we'll put
down our pre-emergent alright alright so this is it guys
we put down the we controlled rudy yard off pick up all the sticks and next week
we'll put down the pre-emergent alright
you know be making up my words right
alright guys because it's boring to watch us blow some leaves this is before
damn evil done
hi guys we have these two you guys seen these before so we're not gonna film
these before and and bam here we are all done
all done and guys again this is a pine straw all of this is pine straw let me
show you the difference between what we did in the neighbor's property so we
have to blow the pastor off or else is gonna look like this see that we took
some and put it right over here and right over there but the rest we blew it
all the way in the back so on average we come out here once a month doing
wintertime and just keep things clean for the customer

What is lower pole constricted breast?-Dr.Hourglass - Duration: 6:44.
Hi, this is Dr. Hourglass, and welcome to another video in our channel Wonder Breasts.
Today we are going to discuss: What is a lower pole constricted breast?
In this channel we discuss everything related to breast surgery.
Welcome back!
The shape, size, and balance of the breasts play a crucial role in outlining the physical beauty of a woman,
apart from setting her self-esteem and sense of femininity.
A woman with normal and aesthetically appealing breasts feels more confident and enjoys
a good quality of life than a woman with poorly shaped breasts.
Constriction of the breasts is a pathologic condition that affects many women.
It starts at puberty, and the condition features constriction of the ring at the base of the breast
and lack of tissue in the breasts.
The lower pole constricted breasts show tightening along the lower pole of the breasts,
causing the breasts to appear abnormal and in the shape of a tube.
This condition often happens as a result of herniation of the breast tissue into the nipple-areolar complex.
This causes the breasts to look bulging or swollen and abnormal in shape.
In a lower pole constricted breast, the base of the breast is almost absent, underdeveloped,
or defective both vertically and horizontally.
This is often coupled by a hypoplastic breast tissue or an inframammary create that is higher, or both.
There are other aesthetic problems that may follow the lower pole constricted breasts.
These include asymmetrical, saggy, and poorly balanced breasts.
As to what factors exactly cause lower pole constricted breasts is not yet known.
Studies indicate the condition might be caused by multiple factors, including genetic tendencies.
Treatment for lower pole constricted breasts can be custom-tailored to your unique needs and requirements.
Each patient has a varying degree and type of constriction in the lower pole of the breasts.
The common treatment options include breast implant surgery and tissue expansion.
The use of breast lift might also become inevitable to treat the condition.
Even though a combination of these treatments is used to treat lower pole constricted breasts effectively,
constriction of new breast tissue by sinking your skin incision and soft tissue expansion
also delivers reliable and effective outcomes.
Typically, the implant is placed over the muscle to expand the soft tissue envelope more efficiently.
If you have lower pole constricted breasts, you should consult with a board-certified plastic surgeon
to explore the treatment options and determine your candidacy for the surgery.
In this video, we discussed: What is a lower pole constricted breast?
Next week we will discuss: Gummy bears: What are these new implants?

Kickstarter Video for Madicine Woman Pilot - Duration: 2:37.
Hi, I'm Mark Vaughan, Medical Doctor during the week, and independent filmmaker on the
weekends.
You can find links to some of my prior productions like the comedy short, SHE, and the Auburn
Medical Group procedure videos on YouTube.
This project is a pilot episode for a medical drama web series called Madicine Woman.
It's the story of Madison, a young physician assistant who is forced to save her medical
practice from demise, leading her to discover a LONG-kept secret.
In addition to the fictional story about Madison we will be giving the audience an inside look
at the reality of primary care medical practice in 2018.
It will also touch on important aspects of human physiology and medicine relevant to
our country's greatest health threats.
In addition to my fascination with medicine and enjoyment of helping people, I have also
had a life-long love of radio and television which is now expressed through internet video.
In fact, I was even a broadcasting major when I started college.
This project is the nexus of these interests and my personal experiences to make the most
realistic medical drama of our time.
We already have the script thanks to our writer, Brandon Lopez.
The other member of the team is Jeff Dickerson, the cinematographer from our 2014 short, SHE.
We will begin casting once we have met our goal on Kickstarter, and filming will begin
in early April.
We will submit the final video for purchase through online platforms like Amazon Video
once it is completed in May.
Then we will continue writing and planning for a complete first season.
We have two budgets, depending on how much we raise through Kickstarter.
There is a $12,000 dream budget with all of the extra elements we would love to include
in the production.
Then there is the $8000 budget which will be adequate to start to tell this story if
we can achieve at least $5000 of it through Kickstarter by March first.
I find that people are surprised when I tell them about the unique economic forces and
incentives shaping the practice of medicine at this time.
A dramatic web series is the best medium for letting everyone discover what matters about
their health and how it is incentivised at this time.
Please join us in this project by finding the reward level that suits you best and "Back
this project."
Thank you.

PROfiles: Hwang "EFFECT" Hyeon 황현 | The Hope of Dallas Fuel ft One of the World's Best DPS - Duration: 12:21.
(Korean)
(Korean)
Born on May 16th 1997 Hyun Wang better known in
overwatch as effect is one of the best tracers the pro scene has to offer
although this hasn't stopped other pro players from looking down on him in the
past
money's here I think Oh however his masterful play has more than proven that
he is one of the Great's of the game who can almost single-handedly carry his
team to victory prior to the official release of overwatch effect was a music
student who had chosen to pursue his passion for the musical arts and
university a decision that made his parents very happy while a student he
maintained gaming as a hobby but was still able to maintain his status as a
highly competitive player even reaching the number two ranked at a game called
ciphers following the launch of overwatch effect found himself drawn to
the game eventually reaching the point of telling his parents about his desire
to switch his focus from music based career to living life as professional
eSports player at the time they were saddened by their son's decision but
have since warmed up to the idea and now that effect has proven to them and the
world that he can not only make it as a pro gamer but stand at the top of the
world as one of the best of the best
affects first entry into the competitive overwatch scene was as a dps on early
iteration of meta Athena alongside renowned players including the likes of
Sayaplayer and NYXLs Libero effects team managed to secure a coveted
spot in the second season of the OGN overwatch apex after a dominant run
through the offline qualifier effects stepped down from the active roster at
the start of 2017 but maintained his role as a substitute before officially
leaving on March 16 during this period away from the professional stage effect
continued to stream and amass a large fanbase in the Korean overwatch
community securing and maintaining his spot in the top of the region's
competitive ladder we've reached out to his former teammates for their thoughts
on affect as a player and as an individual affect thinks a lot about the
game when playing when he plays tracer he is always researching different
positioning and infiltration routes which he can try out during scrims
when he was in a meta belem who would try to improve his skills various heroes
aside from his tracer which he excelled at making him a role model amongst the
teammates effect had his own creative style of tracer and aim as well as
in-game knowledge making him a tracer player to beat effect always tried
harder than other players when everyone woke up and got ready for the day by the
designated schedule effect woke up before everyone else and went to sleep
before everyone else always playing ranked and practicing on his own many
had anticipated that effects free agent status would be short-lived but few had
expected that his DPS talents would catch the eye of a Western team
on April 22nd 2017 Dennis Hal vaca or Internet Hulk
announced that his contract expired with envious and he was deciding to leave to
pursue other career opportunities around this time the meta began to
heavily-favored i've compositions and so to fill a much needed spot in their
roster and remedy their lack of a good tracer player envious took two
prospective players lui and effect under their wing for a trial period starting
April 27th 2017 during his time with envious Louie ended up playing mostly in
the soldier role one which time ooh and hairy hook could already aptly fill
while effect demonstrated greater tracer proficiency and a greater amount of play
time during the team's run at the third season of apex on May 27th Louis parted
ways with envious and effect was officially added to the roster as a
permanent member of the starting lineup with both his streaming career taking
off after me exposed the West as a member of envious and repeated victories
at apex effects tracer play have begun to captivate the world with time ooze
the looming long-range threat Coco and Mickey it's a solid tank lineup and
effect constantly ready to go for the flank many Korean teams were squashed
beneath the solid play of the boys in blue however during the playoffs other
teams went start racers of their own proved that they were able of tying down
effect for most team fights causing envious to have to rely on just time
moves hit scan dps which often caused teamfights to drag on envious would
finish their APEC season three run in a respectable fourth place after falling
to Africa freaks blue four to one upon their return to North America after a
long stay abroad envious and rogue were invited to compete in season one of
overwatch contenders with immortals having taken the first in season zero
this was the tournament that many believed would unofficially determine
the best team in the west towards the final stages of contenders envious
managed to get the ever popular in charismatic Brandon Siegel armed
as their third DPS player the addition of Seagal allowed MBS to form the
three-headed snake formation also known as the three-pronged attack that
dominated North American teams in contenders the change in composition
also allowed effect to swap from a conservative flanking tracer to an agro
raw damaged one constantly chewing on tanks and supports alike sharing his
disruption / attention-grabbing job with seagulls Farah affects job as tracer got
easier while his play kept improving with the launch of the overwatch League
team envyus rebranded its Dallas fuel bringing with them their versatile and
capable lineup and naturally effect after a dominant run in the preseason
many fans anticipated a strong showing in the first few weeks of the league but
by the end of week 2 Dallas few will find themselves towards the bottom of
the rain cake effect stated that the team is working on improving internal
communication issues and strategic hurdles but has told his fans that he
will be doubling down on improving and his confident in his team's ability to
make a rebound so far effect has been the tracer to beat in the overwatch
League and despite his team not having the most favorable results they have
been happy to play compositions that lit effects tracer carry them to victory in
such cases as their 3-2 victory over Houston or their 3-1 win over Florida in
the preseason games so now that we've learned a bit about his background let's
dive into what makes effect such an outstanding tracer last cast
the fact is a grinder I've never seen someone with such a dedicated schedule
like effect there's no outside of the game of affect effect is always in the
game that's the thing this is always a streaming always playing always grinding
like the effect can play Oh sue for two hours and then he practice aim hero for
an hour and then he plays quick play for an hour before we actually even jumps
into a game mechanic Leon tracer is very very good this is actually very
underrated at the other Carosi plays but that's only because he's so good at
tracer he plays everything at such like a world-class level he really try hard
every time he played the game it just wants to win really really badly
he's like a God's gift the game effect has mastered every aspect of the
character playing the stable zoning tracer when doing or paired with time
ooh the aggressive DPS tracer when playing in the three-headed snake
formation or the one clip assassination tracer after failed teamfights
one of the scariest things about effect is that tracer alone isn't enough for
him he's always practicing other heroes
getting them up to a pro level should tracer ever go out of the meta or his
team want to run a different composition effect can flex on to other DPS or even
tank heroes
Fraser's primary ability blink has three charges that can be used to dash away
from damage move closer to chase down fleeing enemies or get into effective
range enabling the pulse pistols to do max damage the ability recharges after a
three second cooldown one of effects favorite tricks is to
blink through the enemy forcing them to turn 180 degrees in order to try and
reacquire their target tracer is very talented at horizontal movement but has
restricted vertical movement thus effect likes to position on high ground he
blinks from different map objects and platforms to quickly reach high ground
in different maps recall resets tracers health and position back three seconds
after a 1.25 second period of invincibility effect is very good at
abusing recall that once he gets into an enemy backline he is near impossible to
remove the sheer mobility that effect utilizes from tracers skillset
complements his mechanical aim allowing him to pull off plays that look insane
Oh even when his team isn't attacking effect can be found on the flanks or
behind enemy lines always a threat that must be respected but mechanics can only
carry you so far what's its effect apart from other
tracer players that you might encounter in competitive it's his ability to
execute coordinated dives with his team that he is honed after hours upon hours
of scrims and by living with his teammates
every time the friendly tanks make contact effect moves in on critical
members of the enemy team pressuring and preventing them from doing damage or
providing much-needed healing this combined with the distraction of tae Moo
and Seagal means that the fat can much more freely feast on the enemy backline
aside from putting in more hours in the game and thoughtfulness when reviewing
his play many consider effects incredible skill set is also largely due
to his rigorous practice regimen for his training effect likes aim hero for its
customizable repeatable aim drills also mentioning how you can set the e dpi to
the same as your overwatch EDP i additionally affect plays lots of osoo
saying that it helps with mouse movements as well as the music being
relaxing at one point effect thought that his tracer play was perfect and
that he had begun to improve on Widowmaker but after a rough start the
overwatch League he had humbly admitted in a series of heartfelt tweets that he
still has a long way to go hopefully with the overwatch League ongoing we
will see douse fuels potential realized and effect leading the charge

Diddy Cut French Montana From Jay-Z, Nas, and Kendrick Lamar Photo - Duration: 1:18.
Hey guys for Complex News, I'm Natasha Martinez.
//// We already knew that no one is safe from a Diddy Crop but now the music mogul is stepping
up his shade game with photoshop.
After the Grammy's, Diddy posted a picture of Jay-Z, Kendrick Lamar, and Nas to Twitter
and captioned it,
"3 Kings!
Great Friends!
Love you guys.
#BlackGreatness."
However fans quickly noticed that the photo posted was worked on by the man who's known
as the king of crops.
People caught on that French Montana put up what seemed to be the original photo that
Diddy posted, but much like a game of spot the difference,he was smack dab in the middle
and Fabolous was posed on the far right.
He also captioned it,
STUDENT OF THE GAME !!! TRYNA PLAY FOREVER !!!!! ‼️
Diddy sure isn't a student of the picture crop game, he's the downright teacher.
Not only did he photoshop French, but he slyly cropped out Fabolous despite them all being
friends.
Diddy's been known to do this before.
He savagely cropped out Kylie and Kendall Jenner from a Met Gala photo with Wiz Khalifa,
Travis Scott, Jaden Smith, and Migos.
Diddy is close friends with the Kardashian klan but that didn't stop him, and trust that
everyone thought it was hilarious.
Well except for the Jenner sisters probably.
Regardless, the internet loves it (put side by side).

UFO departing from the moon in January 2018 filmed by a researcher from his telescope
in Mexico
UFO departing from the moon in January 11 / 2018 filmed by a researcher from his telescope
in Mexico , from Mazatl�n Sinaloa this video came out from the deep web ���
Extraterrestrial bases
For a long time a large number of ufologists have maintained that the hidden face of the
Moon could harbor a base for aliens.
The theory suggests that if these extraterrestrial beings come from a distant planet in another
solar system, they should have a base from which they can make their regular visits to
Earth.
What better place than the hidden face of the Moon, which is perpetually hidden from
our eyes?
To reinforce this claim, Milton William Cooper, American writer, radio announcer and former
intelligence officer of the United States Air Force, said under oath in 1989 that the
US government has knowledge of alien spacecraft visiting the Earth.
"On the hidden side of the Moon there are extraterrestrial bases," Cooper said in a
statement.
"They have been seen by the astronauts of the Apollo mission.
Apart from a mining operation with large machines and extraterrestrial ships there are also
motherships there.
"

The Ranch Jobs Nobody Wants - The Project List - Duration: 9:17.
Hi, I'm Mike.
Today is all about the projects no one wants to do, but someone has to.
Roadkill and manure, its all coming up on the project list, on our Wyoming life.
Hi there, and thanks for joining me on our Wyoming life.
3 times a week we give you a chance to explore the ranch life and escape the ordinary, and
it's not always pretty.
Please subscribe and join us as we bring you the entire ranch, from the animals, to the
gardens, to the stuff that you don't even want to think about.
Behind me is the project list, a board on the wall in the shop where we keep track of
all the projects that need done around here, we add to it constantly and we keep crossing
them off as we get them done, some days we're ahead but to be perfectly honest, most days
we end up in the hole.
It's a constant battle and a lot of times what we tackle on the list comes down to weather.
It still winter here in Wyoming, but here over the past few days we have been lucky
enough a warm front moving through, temps have been up in the 40s which has been melting
the snow and giving us a bit of a break from the bitter cold.
It will be back, replacing the cold, is something that usually moves in when we have warmer
temps in the winter, the wind.
Its been blowing a steady 30 miles per hour for the past few days, and our first project
for the day ties in with the warmer temperatures and the wind.
As you probably noticed a two-lane state highway runs right by the ranch, in fact it goes through
the ranch, separating a large chunk of land from the main part of the ranch.
During the winter, our heifers live on the other side of the highway, our bull pasture
is also over there along with the horse pasture.
Having a separation like that doesn't seem like much for me it can be a large pain.
I cross the highway many times per day but I'm not the only one.
Mule deer inhabit this area of Wyoming and because food is scarce and water is even more
rare, the deer are constantly on the move, crossing the highway probably just as much
as I do.
My mom taught me a long time ago to look both ways, deer, well that don't take that precaution
that often and it's a common occurrence for us to look out the window and see a car
pulled off to the side, people pulling off to help and a deer laying in the ditch.
I don't know the exact statistics but a lot of deer and antelope get hit on the highway
along our stretch.
The unfortunate part of the deal, besides cars being damaged and of course the death
of the deer, is the fact that deer is usually just pulled off the road and left in the ditch.
Sometimes a state employee will come pick them up and take them away, more often than
not, it ends up being my problem.
You may ask why we care?
And that is a good question but one that I actually have an answer for.
As the deer decompose in the ditch, predators move in, coyotes, bobcats, whatever can get
a free meal.
Those predators, I'd rather keep away from the area that I'll be calving in, in just
about a month or so.
Also, with neighbors selling land, and subdivisions going in like crazy, we now deal more with
dogs than we ever have in the past.
Last year 3 houses were built that border right on the ranch, and those decomposing
deer also entice dogs and bring them onto the ranch as well.
The year before last, we lost almost 30 chickens to one dog in just the span of a few minutes.
The dog wasn't trying to eat them, but he was chasing them and that kind of stress will
cause a chicken to just drop dead.
So, as everything thaws here for a few days, up until now has been a few frozen carcasses
are now thawing and smelling and they need to be taken care of.
I've given up on anyone coming to get them so we will head out in the tractor to pick
them up and take them to the dump, where we can bury them the next time I can borrow my
neighbors back hoe.
Its not a complicated job, but it can be messy and disgusting, and luckily, it's not one
that I have to do that often, although in the summer time I will pick them up as they
are hit on the road, getting them away and buried as soon as possible.
I counted 5 deer in our stretch, a little over a mile and with each one the job doesn't
become easier, they are pretty spread out and some have already been visited by a predator
or two.
But once they are all loaded I can take a breath.
Deer can also carry diseases, most commonly tick-borne diseases and even though these
deer are dead, I'm not taking any chances.
And once I have them picked up, taken to the dump and disposed of then its back to the
shop to spray some bleach on the bucket and wash it and last but not least, my gloves
go into the incinerator.
But the fun doesn't end here, after grabbing a new pair of gloves, I pick these up for
around a dollar a piece at home depot, its back out to tackle another weather induced
problem.
As the temps rise, snow melts and that resulting water can get things a bit messy.
Our steers that we are finishing for butcher live in this corral, where unfortunately,
the run off from the roof of the shop drains right into.
There's another thing for the list, some sort of drain tile to move water from the
downspout on the shop out farther in to the pasture and away from the corrals.
About once a week, I end up cleaning this corral out, weather permitting and these steers
know the routine, soon after opening the gate, they head right through to wait for me to
do whatever it is that I plan on doing in their corral.
They are pretty patient about it, mostly because they know when I'm done they get a nice
new bale of hay, but that comes later.
The ground is still frozen and that's not necessarily a bad thing, it means that we
can scrap along the ground, picking up manure and waste without having to worry about digging
out a bunch of soil.
Using the box blade on the tractor we can begin picking up all the manure we can, moving
it into smaller piles then picking it up with the bucket of the tractor.
Which I know I just cleaned but will probably need it again by the time we are done.
Each trip around the corral picks up more and more and before too long we can switch
into the bobcat, using the smaller and more maneuverable tractor to get into tighter places
and corners including inside the shed where the steers are able to seek shelter.
Round and round we go, I think I'm getting dizzy.
Two more big loads go onto our manure pile which will become compost for the ranch and
recycled.
Then we can switch tractors, yet again, and this time into the John Deere 6420, the feeding
tractor.
Which we are going to us to go and get the steers a bale of hay, as well as a bale of
straw for bedding in their shed.
Back across the road we go, where the heifers are standing guard, we can grab a bale of
straw, weighing about 800 lbs. and a bale of hay.
Back across the road again, and into the stall, placing the bale of straw into the shed, cutting
the strings that hold it together, spreading it out a bit and then heading back out of
the corral to grab our bale.
This bale will go into this bale feeder.
Bale feeders work great when feeding smaller groups of cattle as only about 10 or so cows
can stand around this at one time and eat.
They still make a mess, pulling it out of the feeder but it keeps most of the hay contained
until they are able to finish it up.
Cutting off the net wrap, which is always fun in the wind and then getting the tractor
out of the way and bringing the steers back into their corral, where they get to spreading
out the rest of their straw.
Somedays out here you can almost stay clean, other days you might as well not even try
but I have to say, cleaning the corral is so much better with the equipment that we
have, the smell however is something the permeates everything it touches.
Erin can tell from the house when I'm cleaning corrals and if its springtime and I'm doing
it and heaven forbid she has a window open, I can guarantee I am going to get an earful.
Lucky for you, you don't have to smell anything.
I just checked the forecast and we are back down in the single digit temps starting soon
so it's a good thing we got done what we did, as with life, there sometimes a few small
openings and if you don't take advantage of them now, you never know when the next
will come around.
Speaking of coming around, thank you for joining me today, rarely ever is ranch life glamorous.
Even when the truly great things happen, you just saved a calf for example, your still
covered in afterbirth.
