Waching daily Oct 11 2018

Previously on Asia's Next Top Model.

With Jac's unexpected exit from the house...

Jac is an amazing model, but she's gone.

That just goes to show how intense

this competition is becoming.

The girls' competitive spirits started to come out.

There's two Thai girls.

We just need to cut it down to one.

And then we start kicking each other out.

The alumni mentors reveal their coming exit.

This week, will be the last week

that I'll stay here with you guys.

-Really? -What?

-Why? -No more hand-holding girls!

It's like the model training wheels coming off.

And encourage the girls to stand on their own two feet.

At a Huawei Style Lookbook challenge,

the girls unleash their inner fashionistas.

-I like that. -Some prove less is more.

While others went too over the top

and missed the mark.

And winner is, Team A.

A larger than life photoshoot turned out

to be one of the toughest shoots so far.

Get on your knees, go straight to the camera.

Oh no, don't be flamingo.

I just said stay up, stay up!

Oh my God.

But it was Vy and Mia

who struggled to find their footing.

-Whoa! -What?

That caused them to stumble over at judging.

You lost that spark.

I don't think it's so much Harper's Bazaar,

I think it's a little bit Bitchy Bazaar.

In the end, Dana emerged a giant,

and won Best Photo.

While Vy couldn't stand tall and was sent packing.

5 girls remain.

Who will be Asia's Next Top Model?

Dana!

Oh my God.

You look amazing.

Congrats girl.

Team Thailand, Team Thailand!

Oh yeah.

It feels amazing!

To see my picture up there two times

in the bottom row of frames,

I feel like I'm slowly rising to the top, you know.

I'm like giving Beauty a bit of competition.

She can't dominate every photoshoot.

I'm a slow burner.

Still burning, still going.

I got more!

How do you feel about winning Top Photo?

-Again? -I'd like to thank my mom.

I'm just so in shock, I don't know.

I mean like, I mean a few months ago,

I was going to stop modelling.

You what? You crazy?

A few months ago,

I wasn't sure if I was going to keep modelling.

I wasn't sure if it was 100%,

like, what I'm good at.

So I really doubted for a while what I wanted to do,

what I wanted to be.

And to see my picture up there twice,

I just have such a sense of, like I'm in the right place.

And it just makes me so glad

that I decided to join this competition.

And you did, you pulled it out at like the perfect time.

Like, this bottom row is like, majority your face man.

Dana, Dana, Dana.

Where has this all come from?

I really underestimated her at the start.

So, I need to pick up my game,

and not get too comfortable and to keep on pushing myself.

In a way, I feel kinda guilty for still being here.

Obviously I haven't been doing well,

and I feel like I'm only here

because someone happened to perform worse that day than me.

-And not because I... -You have a photo up here.

I don't have a photo up here. Look at how I'm acting.

-You got to...embrace this. -Okay!

Enough of "I don't deserve to be here,"

"I don't deserve to be here." Cause it really is annoying.

-Yeah! -Really babe.

Someone's gonna be at the bottom.

So this time it's me.

But I'll take this as a motivational slap in the face

and grow from there.

God, one more frame.

One more frame.

Positive visualization.

Love, attraction, come to me! Come to me!

This week is probably going to be one

of the most crazy weeks ever

in this competition because it's gonna be

the last frame on the wall.

So my game plan for this week is just to enjoy it,

live it like it could be my last.

And just go from there.

Hey girls.

-Hi! -Hi girls!

-Yay! -Oh my gosh,

one, two, three, four, five!

Congratulations for making it to Top 5!

Thank you!

We are so proud of you.

And now it's time to do our one last team huddle.

I've been very lucky to have Tu holding

my hand through most of these weeks

of the competition.

So now, time to say goodbye.

But I want to say that I really enjoyed

the time with you guys.

To have to let go of that hand

at such an important time is really scary.

I just want to say thank you so much

for all your help.

You've really made me feel really supported

throughout this competition. And it's really,

I can't imagine doing this without you.

And now we have to do it without you!

Monika is such a big sweetheart.

She's given me such great advice over the competition.

And, she's given me a push. And I feel good.

So now there's no more Team Monika.

Now it's Team Pim and Team Dana.

Please support each other. Be your own mentors, okay?

-I'll do everything I can. -Yes. Crunch time.

-Thank you Shikin. -Good luck.

Now there's no time for mistakes.

Give everything. Everything. Everything you have.

Like 200%. Just push.

I will definitely take all of Tu's advice

from the past seven weeks.

And I will bring it with me through this competition.

-Thank you, Tu. -Bye bye!

-Bye! -See you at the finals!

-See you at the finals. -Hopefully.

Let's go.

Team Monika!

Yes! I'm gonna miss you girls.

Saying goodbye to Monika was bittersweet.

It's almost like, you know,

getting your training wheels taken off

and not having that comfort around.

So, in a way, it's kinda exciting.

Now we're gonna get to show our real potential to the judges.

We've been really lucky with Tu.

It's going to be hard without her.

Cindy Mail!

Did someone say Cindy Mail?

Yeah!

What else is happening?

It's time to be bold,

be fearless and be ready to stand up for yourself.

Because fortune favours the bold. Love, Cindy.

Stand up for yourself?

May because we now have no mentors.

So, we're on our own now.

But the word "bold" is up there twice.

I know it's going to be something big.

Something that's physically challenging.

So, I am excited.

Sounds tiring, so let's get some rest!

Oh la la!

I think fortune favours the well-rested.

-That is also true. -Mmm...

I'm really excited to find out what's in store for us this week,

but also a little bit nervous

because this is such an important week

that I want to make sure that I do well in.

-Oh my God. Oh God. -Okay wait, wait. What?

Wait! Oh! Oh my God! Oh God! Oh my God!

That was crazy.

Hey girls!

Oh my God!

No! We're not going to have to do that, are we?

Oh my God!

I've never seen that before.

It's gonna be some crazy car stuff today.

Hi!

Ladies! Did you like what you just saw?

Yes!

Well, it was definitely exhilarating performing

that for all of you girls,

and it's all thanks to this man right here!

All the way from the UK,

the legendary stunt and precision driver, Russ Swift.

Hi girls!

Hi!

Russ Swift has been bringing out the best

of Subaru cars through his stunt shows all over the region,

demonstrating the safety, stability,

and superior driving experience that Subaru is known for.

And today, ladies,

you are in for a photoshoot that exemplifies

he spirit of Subaru in a shoot called,

"Go for Bold."

Photoshoot? No challenge? Photoshoot?

Today's photoshoot is all about being bold and fearless.

Because, ladies,

you will be posing on the side of this Subaru XV

that will be propped up on two wheels,

just like what you saw in the stunt.

No, the car will not be moving.

But standing up tall and strong on the side of a car

is a balancing act in itself.

And you will be required

to wear safety harnesses for this shoot.

Today is all about showcasing strength and poise.

And I'm expecting you to give me confident,

dynamic poses that mirror the strength

and stability of the Subaru XV.

Alright, ladies, are you ready to "Go for Bold"?

Yes!

Then off you go for hair and makeup!

Hello ladies!

Hi!

Wow, you guys look amazing!

Before we go into your photoshoot,

I wanted to introduce a very special guest.

Your client,

the driving force behind Motor Image Subaru Asia

and Managing Director of Tan Chong International,

he's back again, Mr Glenn Tan!

-Hi girls! -Hi!

I hope you guys are ready for the photoshoot today.

Subaru is all about being bold, living on the edge,

and taking any challenge head-on.

Show me that you deserve to be in this competition.

-Can you do that? -Yes!

Good luck and I look forward to see

how you do in judging.

Thank you!

I feel a lot of pressure

for this photoshoot for two reasons.

One, I was in the bottom last week,

so I have been given another chance.

And I also feel like I did really well

at the last Subaru shoot.

Mia, the client loved you

and felt you delivered the concept very well.

I've established this kind of good baseline with the client,

Glenn Tan, and I do not want to disappoint him.

As they put on my harness,

the nerves start to kick in.

Alright Mia, this is your photographer today

from Calibre Pictures, Joel Lim.

-Hello! -Hello! Nice to meet you.

There's nothing stopping me physically

from excelling in this.

I'm gonna kill this.

Alright, Mia, are you ready?

-Yes. -Your time starts now.

This is your very your own action scene.

Straighten. You gotta straighten up.

-I'm sorry. -You gotta keep...

at least one foot on the car.

I'm finding it very difficult to control

the position of my body.

Ahh! Okay, no.

Oh my goodness,

I need to figure this out. And do it fast.

How about I do one where I twist to the front?

Like that?

-We can try it. -Nice.

Okay. Let's keep doing that!

This photoshoot is the single most important point

for me right now.

This is cool.

The judges, they gave me another chance.

And I have to show them

they did not make a mistake letting me stay.

One, two, three, go!

Yes! Right there! That's all you need,

that's all you need!

Beautiful, keep doing that, yes!

Whoo! You look like you're flying!

Love!

Three, two, one. Whoo!

That's kinda crazy.

I don't wanna sound cocky,

but just based on Cindy's comments,

I feel like I rocked it.

Doing well in this photoshoot is so important

because this is going to determine

who's going to get into the finals.

I know that I want to be there.

So I just know that I have to put aside

any of my worries that I have and perform.

Alright, Adela,

let's go! Your time starts now!

Confidence.

Strength!

I look completely different to how I normally do,

so I almost felt like a superhero

that is ready to defend

with my Batmobile Subaru or something like that.

Uhmm...

Adela, I really want you...

to think about the strength that you wanna give us, okay?

Because right now you're looking very pretty.

-Okay. -Okay?

This has kinda been an ongoing comment

that I have to look powerful but I'm looking too pretty.

-Gangster! -Yes!

-Badass! Come on! -Yes!

I kinda just have to get myself into a mindset that

I am a strong, courageous stuntwoman and that,

you know, I belong on the top of this car.

-This is good! -Okay, that's kinda cool.

Alright, let's go!

You're gonna break through some barriers!

I'm powerful. I'm fearless.

I'm bold. Nothing scares me.

This is good.

I'm really feeling this Adela.

Last 10 frames!

You're running over the rest of the contestants!

-Come on! -Yeah! Yes!

Whoo!

That was fun.

I'm a bit worried because I'm scared of heights.

So it's gonna be a very difficult shoot for me.

But I don't want to show

the other girls that I am so scared.

So I have to make sure that I will do the best.

Alright. She's ready, Joel. She's all yours.

Alright, Beauty.

-Let's do this. -Wait a second. Wait, wait.

What, what, what?

I'm shaking.

Wait. Okay.

Beauty, we gotta start. Your time starts now!

Try not holding on to the string. Okay?

I'm sweating. I'm nervous. I am scared.

I just don't trust the harness.

And my hands are like this.

You're not gonna fall. Try kicking off the car.

Go on. Go on. Go!

-Kick off the car. -Really?

Yeah. Get off. Get your feet off the car.

You gotta trust us.

Beauty was very scared.

If this really was a paid client job,

she would be in a lot of trouble for not trusting the crew.

Beauty, come on, scream!

All those nerves out, get all those nerves out!

-Okay! -Whoo!

-Are you ready? -Yes.

Alright. Let's do this. Come on.

I have to be confident.

I have to show that I deserve to be here.

How much do you want this?

I want to win this.

-Okay, then this is your chance. -Okay.

Come on Beauty, you have to focus.

That's nice.

Yeah.

There we go.

I like that!

Yes.

Let's go for bold!

Ooh I like. I like. Yes!

Last few shots, come on.

Come on, give me everything in your face.

Come on Beauty!

There you go.

Well done.

I've never been in Bottom Two.

It just shows I've pretty much been kind of stable.

So this photoshoot,

I'm gonna show Cindy I wanna be at the top.

You ready? She looks like she's ready.

-Let's go! Your time starts now! -I'm ready!

I feel like a character in a movie.

I have my inner superhero mode going on.

Your hair looks like fire.

Reflect the same fire. Come on.

But, I'm just a little upset that I got a dress,

you know? I can't really be like, "Wah!" with my legs.

Err...

-Your face is a little bit... -Too much?

It's like you're worried about how it's gonna come out.

So you gotta shake it off.

Let's see if we can put it all together.

This car is going so fast, Pim.

-Aahh. -Yeah!

Pim has been a bit weird lately.

Somehow I feel like she didn't take it seriously enough.

As if she was having fun on a day off,

like "Whoo! I'm gonna do this! Hmm! Hmm! Hah! Hoo! Hah!"

Careful, no Thai dancer!

Stuntwoman!

She doesn't look like a stuntwoman or a model.

She looks like a character out of a children's book.

That's cool. Yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!

At this point, I feel like I've tried everything

and I'm just so happy to be up there.

I feel like I'm on top of the world.

Yea, not too bad.

Two more frames, make it count.

-Yes! Like Spiderwoman. -Yes!

You are speeding towards the finish line, Pim.

This is your last shot!

Ugh! I hope I got it!

I hope so too!

The last Subaru photoshoot,

I was in the Bottom Two.

Dana, your lack of energy

and laidback attitude almost put the judges to sleep.

So doing well in this photoshoot is just crazy important.

I just really wanna, you know,

redeem myself from that performance.

Intensity in your eyes Dana.

No time to be sleeping at the wheel!

Your time starts now, Dana.

Fierce in your eyes. Strong. Confident.

-No. -How is it? No?

Pick it up, pick it up, your energy is like.

Okay. Okay.

It's a lot harder than it looks.

You've gotta keep your balance,

you gotta have a fierce face.

Could I just like, rock back and forth in this position?

-Yes you can. -Okay.

-That's nice. -Nice!

-Nice. Yes! -Let's get angry,

-let's get angry! -Yes!

If I don't get a great shot,

then my time in this competition could be over.

So I'm just giving it my all.

Everything. Every last thing.

Get angry!

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes!

-Yeah -Yes!

Keep moving, keep moving!

Keep playing that character, yes!

Nice! Three, two, one!

-Are you crying? -Yeah.

You're like a proud mom.

Dana, she's just become so powerful now.

She really is an amazing model.

I'm just so proud that

she's found that confidence in her.

And that's a wrap everybody!

Yay!

Thank you everyone.

The first few weeks,

people didn't really see me as big competition.

But now, surprise!

We did it.

I think we're gonna give them a tough deliberation.

-I hope so. -Let's see them cut us down.

This is the hardest week in order to call

who did best and who did worse.

We don't have any challenge scores to refer to.

Who do you think did the worst?

Oh my God, Dana!

There's so few of us, I gotta spice it up a bit.

I think Beauty seemed the most nervous.

I don't know how that will translate in pictures,

because you kinda stayed in the same pose.

I'm not saying that's bad, because you gave variation,

but maybe not as many options to pick from.

Okay, let's see.

Adela, she's very competitive.

It annoys me.

I'm not saying it's going to be a bad photo.

It's just like watching the performance,

cause we didn't get to see the monitor, right?

Adela is very fired up at this point.

She has this little sneakiness in her eyes

that I always see during challenges and photoshoot,

so I'm like "I see you Adela".

But from what I saw,

we all put up a good fight for that final frame, so...

-Yeah -Very diplomatic answer of you.

We're walking down the runway of an airport in this really,

like, gangster getup.

I've no idea why we're dressed like this,

but I think we're about to find out.

I've been there through every photoshoot on that wall.

All eight shoots.

I didn't think I would mentally make it this far.

I'm like, really, like, kinda proving myself here, like,

"Girl, you can do this."

Every photoshoot has been like a challenge in some way.

And I've been challenged in ways

that I never thought that I would be.

It's beyond my limits, and I'm here.

This competition really impacted me

because it pushed me to do something

that I wouldn't do if I'm not in this competition.

I'm really proud of the person

that I've become in these past few weeks.

The process might be a little ugly,

but I'm happy with where I am now.

Hello models, welcome!

Hi!

You've already gone for your Subaru.

Go for Bold photoshoot.

And now, as you approach the grand finale,

we have an amazing challenge lined up for you.

So today, it's all about celebrating your strength,

fearlessness, and gearing up for the grand finale

in a very special Subaru fashion film.

Today, you're going to be playing the heroines in your own film,

fearlessly making your way

to the finish line in your Subaru XVs.

This film is a representation

of your entire journey leading up to the finale.

We want to see each of you take the spotlight and shine.

And ultimately show us

why you deserve a spot at the top.

Okay, ladies,

let me introduce you to your special guest today.

Vietnamese is model, actress,

and pop singer sensation, Ho Ngoc Ha.

She has also written the song

that'll be featured in this fashion film.

-Hello girls. -Hi!

It's my pleasure to be here with you today.

And I look forward to seeing

how this fashion film all comes together

with you as the stars.

Ho Ngoc Ha wrote a song for us to feature in this.

So this is crazy, this is next level.

Alright, girls, are you ready...

to be the heroines in your own story?

-Yes! -Well let's roll!

Yea, the jib right here.

So go low. She opens the door.

I am so excited about today's challenge.

The girls are lined up

to do this amazing special Subaru fashion film.

In modelling,

it's not just about static pictures anymore.

Moving images where someone

can convey a story is what we want in a top model.

-Adela. -Hello

-You look amazing. -Thank you.

So here is your task today.

You're gonna come out here. I want you to stand right here,

-pretty powerful pose, okay? -Okay.

Confident, confident, confident.

I love the concept of this fashion film shoot

because it really showcases each of the girls,

their own strengths.

It's everything that I've been screaming,

yelling, and drilling into these girls

in the last eight weeks.

I want to see them take all of that

and apply it to this fashion film.

Alright, standby. Roll camera.

Rolling.

And, action!

Slow yourself down! Slow yourself down.

This is kind of the sign of an end,

that, we're the Top 5,

so I know that I wanna portray the person

I feel like I've become in my time in this competition.

If I know the visual line's there,

I'll be like...

You need that little beat, so I know where you're going.

Action.

Nice.

Nice.

Being in the last stretch of this competition,

I'm looking back at why I'm here.

I wanna do this for my country.

I wanna make the Philippines proud,

but, I'm also doing this for my mom.

She practically raised me on her own

and I just feel like I have so much

to give back to her

because she uprooted her life for me.

Adela those kick's got moves!

I'm loving those kicks!

You don't wanna mess with me, ladies.

I think my mom would be really proud of me.

She's seen how my insecurities have eaten me up before.

And for her to see that I've used those insecurities

to make myself more confident, more beautiful,

I think she'd be really proud of me.

Alright, Dana, I want you to have the jacket on your right hand,

swing it over, and look over, glance over,

and then you're gonna walk off in that direction.

-Okay. -Action!

Milk it, milk it, milk it!

Yeah, I do feel pretty confident

and cool at this point in the competition,

to make it to Top 5.

So I'm just trying to let that feeling,

you know, just try to amp it up even more for the camera.

When you grab...

Because you know that you're going to grab that.

-Okay. -Deep breath.

Then, let's go.

Okay.

-Yes. -Deep inhale.

Beautiful. Love!

At the start of this competition,

I didn't really have much of a game plan.

To be honest, I was just trying to survive.

Don't get lost. Come back to me.

I just needed more out of the face.

To just make it to the next week, you kno,

I had my small goals.

-Wow! -Whoo! Dana!

Winning just seemed like this far off thing.

It's time to wake up.

But now, like, being so close,

it's not just about survival anymore.

I want to be the best here.

Love! Love!

There was a bit of a mean streak in there,

but I kinda like it.

-Thank you. -Let's move on to the next shot.

You are listening music,

so you have to move...

-and feel the beat a little. -Move a little bit.

-Alright? -Alright Pim, are you ready?

If you can hear me, nod your head.

Alright, stay focused, cause we're ready to go.

In this fashion film challenge,

I get to drive the Subaru!

I'm so excited. I think that's so cool.

Action!

You gotta convince us that you're really driving.

Pim, slow down your movements.

Slow down your movements.

And do it naturally.

Don't forget all the modelling tips...

that you learnt. All cycle.

Now you apply them all, please.

Eight weeks in the competition.

Oh my God, it's been such a wild ride.

Whoo!

I've been able to do these amazing photoshoots.

He just want to pose on me.

He likes you Pim.

It's been like an intense model course for me.

Make the movement small.

Milk every single frame.

Oh. Okay.

Something melted on her face.

When I said "milking", I didn't mean drink milk.

I feel like you can throw anything at me now

and I can handle it.

Pim before this competition,

she wasn't so sure of herself.

Compared to the Pim now,

I am so confident that I am a model

with good qualities.

Own it as you walk away.

Okay, that looks great. I think we got it.

Remember, a car's coming toward you.

You're powerful enough to stop that car.

-Okay? -Yes!

I gotta hear you from here. Okay?

Okay!

Action!

Here comes the car.

Drop that leg. Fix your glove.

Okay. Give it a stare off and walk away with attitude.

If you're gonna swing your hair,

you better swing it like you're Beyonce.

Because this was backup singer.

Attitude! Okay, one more time!

Here comes the car.

Remember, your energy is powerful enough to stop that car.

Yes!

Before, I feel so small in this competition.

I feel that I don't have experience.

I feel that I don't have the voice.

Beauty, you gotta work harder.

Every day I cry.

You've got to show them that you can,

you deserve to win.

Break that beautiful face.

But I learned from the judges and from Tu.

More! Do not cry.

Do not cry!

They built my confidence.

And week by week, my confidence is growing.

-Beauty. -Yes!

When I got two Best Performances...

-Yes! -I feel I can do it.

I'm very proud of myself.

Love! That was awesome!

That was awesome, there was attitude!

I love it! I love it, I love it, I love it!

-Alright Mia, are you ready? -Yes.

You get the torch.

Standby.

And action!

Power.

I'm so proud that I'm right here, right now.

Just celebrating how far we've come, really.

You gotta just go "Bam!".

And then, literally feel that weight.

Hold it. And then, boom, boom, boom, boom.

And the shoulder's gotta go with it.

There you go. Alright, I need that badass Mia.

Action!

Love!

This competition has made the biggest impact on my life.

I've had to physically and mentally push myself

to my limit and beyond.

The whole gang ready? Ready to take me down?

Oh God.

She hates me right? Do you see that?

I wish, I really wish,

you were a little bit human.

With these stressful situations,

having to function under all kinds of conditions.

Push me, I don't care if I fall.

-Whoa! -Mia, oh my God.

Calm down.

My whole person has grown here.

I feel like nothing can really faze me anymore.

This was a boot camp,

both physically and mentally.

Yes, yes, pound it, pound it!

Alright! Who rule the world?

-Me! -Yes!

-That was awesome! -Whoo!

Let's do a final group shot now. Let's go!

Standby guys, here we go. Alright.

One, two, three, action!

Here are my action heroes.

Oh! Yes!

Well the girls did amazing today.

Each of them portrayed their heroine roles beautifully.

And I couldn't be more proud of them.

Alrighty, and cut! Thank you!

That was well done!

Boy, it's going to be really hard for us to decide

who will make it to the finale.

It really has been beyond our limits doing this.

I'm just standing there thinking,

"We made it! We made it this far."

If I get through this, I'm in the top of the top.

I beat out almost everyone and,

it would mean the world to me.

I think I've shown that I should be in the finale.

This is my dream, to become Asia's Next Top Model.

I want to win this competition.

I am very happy with my performance this week.

I feel like I was given another chance

to redeem myself

and I have made something out of that chance.

I deserve to be in the final.

Welcome ladies, to your next elimination.

This week, it was all about standing up and being bold.

But before we decide who stays and who goes,

let me first introduce you to your judges.

First up, his brand is synonymous

with Asia's Next Top Model and he is a passionate supporter

of your success as models.

The driving force behind Motor Image Subaru Asia,

and the Managing Director of Tan Chong International,

-Mr. Glenn Tan. -Hi ladies.

Hi.

Next up, we have actress, model, singer,

and superstar entertainer from Vietnam,

the woman who is behind the soundtrack

for your fashion film,

and who was also with you on your film shoot this week,

the very lovely Ho Ngoc Ha.

-Hello ladies. -Hi.

And, of course, the ever fabulous Creative Director

who was also with you on your film shoot this week,

-Yu Tsai. -Models, models, models.

Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai, Yu Tsai.

Alright ladies, to your prizes.

The winner of Asia's Next Top Model

will drive home the all new Subaru XV.

She will have a fashion spread and grace the cover

of Harper's Bazaar Thailand.

She will also become a featured avatar

in the America's Next Top Model new mobile game.

And she will be represented by top model agency,

Storm Model Management,

which has launched the careers of successful models and talent,

including the lights of Lottie Moss

and Fran Summers.

So, ladies,

as Top 5,

you also had a very interesting challenge,

and that was to showcase

what you've learnt so far in a Subaru fashion film.

So, before we take a look at your photos,

why don't we take a look at the Subaru film?

Here it is.

Scandalous!

-Awesome! -I like!

Did you like that ladies?

Yes.

How about you Glenn?

Oh wow, it's very amazing, and the song is great too.

-So I really liked it. Yeah. -Thank you.

Alright, I'm ready. Are you guys?

Yes.

Let's start off with Mia.

The picture looks great.

It looks very bold and making great use of the car

and the situation.

You look like you're really giving us dynamic,

bold, strong, confidence.

However, it's a little Kungfu for me.

It looked like you were actually

on a moving car doing a stunt,

rather than ready to drop a flying kick

-at your opponent. -Okay.

I thought, on the fashion film,

you were quite good.

You were a really good listener,

and I got to see you grow.

And that I will give you props for.

-Thank you judges. -Thank you, Mia.

Next up, let's have Pim.

It's a little bit static for me

and not so much the dynamic,

confident poses I was going for.

It's because all of your other photos were

"Here I come to save the day!"

And I was like, "No, Pim! Model!"

You gotta still stay modelling and editorial.

But I wanna zoom in on that face of yours.

The face has been...

the best so far in this competition.

I really think you look gorgeous.

Your face is showing the right kind

of attitude and all that,

but I'm not so sure about your hands and legs.

I think you are not so sure about it too.

Yeah. It looks like you're taking a rest.

Yeah, it really looks strange, to be honest.

On the fashion video,

you need to pay attention to details.

You have to feel the beat

and then show your emotions. That is really important.

-Thank you Pim! -Thank you.

Beauty.

When we pulled you up,

you were visibly shaking,

and the fear never quite left your face.

And I had to, at one point,

again say, "Scream out loud!"

Which is stuff that we've been doing in the first,

second, and third weeks,

not the final weeks of the competition.

You need to be able to scream and get the fear out

and move on without me having to ask you to do it.

I really like you. You're very beautiful.

You completely owned this shot.

Beauty, you have a very exotic look,

very pretty,

and you should be confident about that.

But you look very scared.

It just looks like you're on a surfboard

and it's the first time you're surfing.

And you're really afraid you're gonna fall down.

I actually loved what Glenn said about the picture he painted.

I like the fact that there's a surfboard

and a wave coming in. It makes me smile.

Instead of not liking it, you made me love it,

Glenn! Because it actually tells me,

oh wow, Beauty can tell a story,

not just that pretty face that we keep talking about

and there's utterly nothing.

I see a different side of you I have never seen before.

-Thank you. -Beauty,

this was also the first week

that none of you had your mentors here.

I really need to know

that you can all make it to your best

without having someone there to hold your hand.

And right now,

I'm not getting that vibe from you, Beauty.

And it's really frustrating for me

because I know how gorgeous you are.

But if you don't have the strength inside,

the inner confidence.

But I think she really showed

that confidence in her fashion video.

When she walked across that camera and gave me

that head roll and the flip, in slow motion...

You were cool as beep.

As Ha would say, "Take me home girl!"

Yeah! Take me home.

Give me a head roll as you walk away.

-Yeah. -Yeah girl!

Oh, and then she goes like this.

It's like flick, he, he, he, he.

Oh! Beauty!

I wanna go shake you!

Adela!

Adela, our sweet, dear, demure girl.

And let me just show everyone what you were doing

when we hoisted you up on the harness.

"Look at me!"

"I am positioning myself on the bonnet!"

No! No, you were not driving to a picnic,

you had to be fierce.

It took a while to get you to shake

all those graceful fingers off,

and produce this shot.

Which for me, I like.

I like it too. You're like a cat woman,

like, in an action movie scene.

I really like it.

But you need to show more of your personality.

-Okay. -And,

you know, don't be girly anymore.

Because look at that,

you can become a really strong woman.

Well, let's talk about your fashion film.

You were over-acting.

-Okay. -You're such a good student,

so when we tell you to close the door,

touch your glasses, and then walk away.

You followed those directions perfectly.

You didn't give us the in between,

those moments.

That's what tells the story.

It's not from point A to point B.

It's the journey in between.

At this point in the competition,

Adela, I need to see the essence of who you are.

I hope it's not too late.

I hope not either.

-Thank you, Adela. -Thank you.

Dana.

Of all the girls,

you were the most poised.

And you were not flustered.

You really got into the mood of what we were trying to do.

The only issue that I had with you,

Dana, though, was...

What do you think?

Face.

I kept saying make sure you give me fierce,

bold, confident stuntwoman,

not someone who's falling asleep at the wheel.

Cause you were giving like "Hah! Yeah!"

But your face was just completely blank.

And it's just, argh!

It's so frustrating,

because it comes back to the same thing with you.

I think Dana you've improved a lot since

-the last I was here and... -Thank you.

I really like this picture, but this is a competition.

There's only five girls left,

so it's really the best of the best.

You have to want to win this,

want to be Asia's Next Top Model.

That will show in your eyes.

But I think she did that in the video.

-Yeah. Yeah, yeah. -When she took the jacket

-and swung it right behind her... -Yeah, in the video,

that's the kind of eyes.

If you're doing this kind of race type photoshoot,

that's the kind of eyes you need.

-Okay. -I don't like this picture.

I love this picture!

This is giving me throwback,

Kill Bill, one, two, and three.

And I love the fact that your emotion is not flat,

just confidence, it's "Bring anything,"

"I'll get you!"

"I'm gonna challenge you, come to me."

You're ready to punch the world that's in front of you.

I love it. I do! I love it.

-Thank you, Dana. -Thank you.

Okay ladies,

it is now time to tabulate your photoshoot scores,

and when you return, I will be announcing who is still

in the running towards becoming Asia's Next Top Model.

But,

as the finale is fastly approaching,

it is time that we make our decision

on who will be our Top 3.

That is why, today,

not one,

but two of you will be leaving the competition.

No matter what the result is,

I want you all to know that I am so,

so proud of each and every single one of you.

And that you should all be very,

very proud of yourselves for making it this far.

Five beautiful ladies stand before me,

but I only have three photos in my hands.

The first name I call will be the girl

who has had the Best Performance of the week

and who has earned herself a Subaru brand ambassadorship.

Mia.

Mia, you started out strong but struggled ever since.

But way to turn it around when it mattered the most girl.

Congratulations Mia.

You've won yourself Best Performance of the week.

You've won yourself a Subaru brand ambassadorship.

And you've earned a spot in the Top 3

of Asia's Next Top Model.

Thank you. Thank you.

I believe our client Glenn has a few words?

Well Mia, remember what you did for the video?

That's the one that made me decide

you should be our ambassador.

Always remember to have that vibe,

and that's gonna take you to the top.

Thank you so much. Thank you.

Dana.

Dana. Week after week,

you've proven to us that you belong here.

You've brought your A-game every time

and managed to stay cool and collected.

You truly deserve a spot

in the Top 3 of Asia's Next Top Model, Dana.

Thank you.

Will Pim, Beauty, and Adela please step forward?

Sorry, I'm sweating.

Three beautiful girls stand before me.

But I only have one photo in my hands.

And this photo represents the girl

who's in the Top 3 of Asia's Next Top Model.

Pim, you're here because, throughout the weeks,

you've never managed to get up on top.

And although I know you are a fighter,

I'm not sure if this is your battle to win.

Beauty, time and time again

we've had to hold your hand in order

to get the best performance out of you,

and I'm not sure you're ready to do that on your own.

And Adela, despite your beautiful face

and your professionalism, which is second to none,

we've been wanting the essence

of who you truly are and spontaneity.

I'm not sure that you've shown that to us in time.

So who stays and who goes?

It's time to find out, ladies.

Adela, you've been one

of the most consistent girls this season,

and it's finally paid off.

Congratulations for making it to Top 3.

Thank you so much.

Pim,

you've never given up this entire competition,

so take everything you've learnt here

and keep breaking that wall girl.

Beauty,

you have everything it takes to become the top model

that I know you already are.

Thank you for sharing this amazing journey with us.

-Thank you. -Give me a hug.

Take care.

Thank you. Thank you.

I honestly kinda knew that I was gonna go.

I didn't make Best Performance at all,

but I honestly learnt so much from this experience.

I'm really disappointed because I want to be...

on Top 3.

I met the most amazing girls and I had the most amazing,

fun journey.

I've learned, as a model,

that I need to break down my walls.

When I do a photoshoot or when I work,

I have to listen and open up my mind.

I'm very proud of my journey.

As a model, I grew a lot.

Even though I don't have experience,

week by week I gained confidence,

and I believed in myself.

The new Pim, a lot happier,

a lot more confident in herself, and I'm all about girl power now.

After this competition, I want to break my fear.

I don't want to be scared anymore.

And I want to be a top model around the world.

Beauty, you're doing good!

I'm proud of myself.

Next time on Asia's Next Top Model.

Only one of us is going to be the winner.

Relive the emotions.

-The drama. -Don't twist my words!

-And the triumphs. -Go! Go!

As we look back on

the unforgettable journey of the Top 3.

-I survived! I'm still here! -Love!

I've really come to find how strong I am.

Beautiful!

I've put my whole self into this competition.

It's a special recap episode

in the competition to be Asia's Next Top Model.

Is This Everyday Substance More Addictive Than Cocaine? - Duration: 4:02.

Hey there and welcome to Life Noggin.

Oh?

Everything is candy!

Sweet!

I don't know about you, but I really love sugar.

Anything sweet really.

And kind.

And smart.

And super tough... and oh geez, I'm doing it again!

Uh, back on topic, Blocko.

So yeah, sugar, it's pretty awesome, right!

Some people even say they're addicted to the stuff.

but is it actually possible to get /addicted/ to sugar like you can with certain drugs?

Well, first off, if we're going to try and compare the two, just what is a drug addiction?

According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, addiction is a chronic brain disease

characterized by a person's compulsion to seek out and use drugs, despite there being

harmful consequences.

Drugs can alter your brain — both in how it works and its actual structure — and

those changes can be long-lasting, leading to harmful behaviors.

Sometimes even self-destructive ones.

So can the same type of thing happen with sugar?

Unfortunately, people can't really seem to agree one way or the other.

Now, there are certainly supporters that back the idea of sugar addiction.

A good example is an article put out just last year in the British Journal of Sports

Medicine.

After looking at a bunch of data, both with animals and humans, researchers said that

there are substantial parallels between sugar and drugs of abuse, from both a behavioral

standpoint and one of brain neurochemistry.

They even brought up how certain animal studies have shown that the reward for sugar can surpass

that of cocaine!

So it's a pretty good case for sugar addiction being real.

But a recent 2016 study argues the opposite.

The researchers started off by looking at the literature on sugar and food addictions.

Then they examined if sugar could be addictive by pitting any evidence from the animal and

human neuroscience literature on drug and sugar addiction against each other.

In the end, they found little evidence to support that humans could be addicted to sugar.

They also said that findings from animal cases suggest that their addiction-like behaviors

happened only when they had intermittent access to sugar, believing those behaviors to come

from the intermittent access, not the actual neurochemical effects of sugar.

Though, on another note, one thing that potentially points to sugar cravings as being similar

to addiction is that drugs designed to help people quit smoking might also help you curb

a bit of your sweet tooth.

Looking at a study using rats, research suggests that varenicline, an FDA-approved drug used

to help people with nicotine cravings, could also be used to reduce your desire to eat

sugary foods.

In the study, rats were given the choice to either drink from a bottle containing only

water, or one that had been sweetened with sucrose.

While our little furry friends used varenicline, researchers found that the rats consumed significantly

less sucrose.

Interesting!

But this all means that we don't really have a clear answer on whether or not you

can actually be addicted to sugar.

But either way, sugar can have an affect on your life and sometimes people want to cut

it out.

Specifically added sugars, which are are sugars and syrups that are added to what you eat

or drink when it's prepared or processed.

So that just means getting rid of things like candies and soda, right?!

Apparently not.

Added sugar is in a bunch of "healthier" options too.

You can find decent amounts of added sugar in everything from granola bars and yogurt,

to canned fruits and even spaghetti sauce!

Wow, there's so many sugary things up there!

If you want to get any sweet foods down here in the Life Noggin world, you have to visit

one of those websites that remembers some of your data.

Uh?

Of course I'll enable cookies!

Bring em here!

Gimmie!

Give me the cookies!

Gimmie!

So do you think you're addicted to sugar?

What's your favorite sugary treat to eat?

Let me know in the comment section below.

Wanna learn more about a rare syndrome that essentially turns you to stone?

Check out this video!

Imagine one day you find a huge lump on your rib cage, and even after getting it x-rayed,

you still don't know what's going on.

As always, my name is Blocko, this has been Life Noggin, don't forget to Keep On Thinking!

Shutdown - Wenn die Regierung plötzlich das Internet abschaltet I Y-Kollektiv Dokumentation - Duration: 15:22.

Could you live without the internet?

Everybody in this market is using a mobile phone.

Hands down - We couldn't.

It's the people's right to get internet.

Living without the internet.

That's exactly what happened in Togo.

That means no Netflix or Youtube, no online news, no google.

Neither Whatsapp nor Facebook, Snapchat or Instagram.

In this film it's not about digital detox.

It's about human rights and the economical development of a whole country.

We want to use computers as a shortcut to develop.

Worldwide almost 40 countries shut off the internet in the past three years.

The 5-day internet shutdown here…

The life stops, our lives stop.

The internet is gone and life stands still?

For us in Germany a shutdown is unimaginably.

Jan and I don't have a clue how that must feel.

That's why we flew to Togo.

We are in West Africa, more precisely in Lomé, the capital of Togo,

where the Gnassingbé family is in power for 51 years now.

Meanwhile however, a lot of people are fed up and since last year there have been multiple

demonstrations with up to 100.000 participants.

Because the protests are mostly organised via the internet, last september the government

shutdown the internet and mobile connection for five days in the whole country.

Togo is located on the west coast of Africa.

The country was a German colony until WW1.

Then came the French.

Today it's independent and the economy grows.

Still, more than a half of the almost 8 million people here live in extreme poverty.

Many work as fishers, farmers, as simple street vendors or taxi drivers.

Although meanwhile elections are held in Togo, the Ganssingbé-dynasty has been able to

stay in power for more than 50 years now.

A lot of people say: That's enough.

That's why they took to the streets last year.

When the protests reached their high point,

president Gnassingbé told the network operators to cease their services.

Five days, no internet, no mobile phone.

After our first impressions we ask ourselves: „How did this affect these people here at all?"

To figure that out we meet up with Olevie in the capital Lomé for lunch.

He lives here, is activist and always online.

During the lunch he has a few Skype calls to do.

We head to the market.

Jan and Olevie talk and I'm filming them.

Hello!

Do you know all the people here?

Not all.

But the most?

I remember their faces.

Looks pretty analog here.

And here the shutdown supposedly has played a major role?

Everybody in this market is using a mobile phone.

But few of them have really a fixed phone in their disposal.

They can't do transfers from an account to another account.

It was not possible for them.

Everybody in Lomé has a mobile phone.

From old brick-like cellphones to shiny smartphones, everything can be seen.

To make payments with them has become normality in Togo and many other West African states long ago.

The only requirement is a SMS capable phone and a working connection.

So: No signal, No money.

Togo lost about 300 US-Dollar per day.

300 or 300.000 Dollar?

300.000 Dollar!

And our GDP (per head) is 578 Dollar.

Per year?

Per year!

So you can imagine, how many people will be hungry again this year in Togo.

Now we try to get a cab?

Yes, a cab.

We drive to Olevie's office.

Meanwhile he replies to a few mails on his tablet.

Without internet his work wouldn't be possible.

He heads an IT-School and earns his money with computers and the internet.

Olevies daughter studies in Canada.

Her parents usually transact the study-fees but during the shutdown that was not possible.

Fortunately, Olevie was in the neighbouring country and was able to help.

I was in Burkina Faso and she reached me and asked: „Papa, I can't reach my Mommy!

What's happening?"

And I told here, that there was an internet shutdown in Togo.

Even myself, I couldn't reach my office or anybody here.

Luckily, before the deadline had expired the internet was back on in Togo and

the money could be transacted.

Quite stressful, sure.

But it is a different story that really shows us the extent of the shutdown.

An acquaintance of Olevie was in urgent need of money for crucial medicine.

But the shutdown delayed everything.

The third day we learned that the person has died.

Heavy!

He died because of a shutdown?

We can not fact-check the story but believe it to be true.

Olevie has to work but we arrange a meeting for the next day.

Before we head out the next day we need to buy new data volume once again.

And because we don't speak french I now have 100 free minutes on my phone

but still no internet.

So no navigation.

Which means we don't have a clue, where we have to go now.

We just got off the taxi and are somewhere behind the airport.

In the moment we are waiting for Olevie to pick us up.

In the meantime we found something that reminds us of our hometown

because this truck behind me, from Bremen, that made the same journey like us.

Olevie picks us up and orders a motorcycle taxi, short: moto.

A few minutes later we arrive at the office of the Internet Society.

The worldwide biggest NGO that campaigns for online rights.

We meet Norbert Glakpe, the head of the Togo-Chapter.

He is a former student of Olevie and one of the most important internet activists in the country.

If there is anyone that can help me with my mobile phone problems, it's probably him.

Can you help me with my phone?

You can not come to the Internet Society Chapter premises and not having access to internet.

I actually have access to internet but my credit is gone, it's empty.

Enough smalltalk.

What we are really interested in: How did Norbert experience the shutdown?

When you wake up in the morning it is shocking.

It's like if you lack light.

The life stops.

Yes, our lives stop.

Now I am afraid and I don't have any confidence in the internet right now.

I can't tell you that they have learned their lesson.

They can cut it off anytime they want.

What does this do to the population?

The end-users, the poor populations are the ones concerned.

Internet is doing a great job for those populations.

So if you take that hope from them then you are killing them.

We did not expect that of all people the poor population is most affected by the shutdown.

But also here, in one of the few exclusive residential areas in Lomé, people are unhappy

about how the government handles the internet.

If someone like me, after studying in Ghana…

If I got a job there I would never come back.

Afi definitely belongs to the upper class in Togo.

The daughter of a parliament member lives in the protected, isolated diplomatic quarter.

Here it's hard to imagine how crowded and hectic the rest of the city is.

But even though we think Afi probably does quite well here, she worries a lot about how

the government handles the internet.

The Internet Society, where I am, most of the people there are not inside Togo.

Most of them are outside and they are doing good.

And sometimes when we talk, the say: „If you find a way, just go.

Leave this country unless they change the government or they change the power."

Does it seem fair or is it kind of like „the ones in power abuse the internet"?

Who does the Internet belong to?

It's the people's right to get internet.

Even if the internet does not belong to anybody, surely.

But I think our part of the world still has a lot to learn.

Not just in Togo there is a lot to learn:

39 countries in the past three years at least partially cut off the internet. A total of almost 200 times.

The most common reason given by the governments: security issues.

Just like it was the case for the protests in Togo.

But this phrase could mean almost everything.

The minister of security said that they cut it because of security reasons.

They were not prepared for that aspect.

They were not prepared that one day the Togolese people use the internet and talk about the

political aspects in Togo.

So for me the Internet allows to voice our voice.

So it's about freedom of speech?

Yes, freedom of speech.

So do you think, in the future there might be another shutdown happening?

So, that they use this tool again when they are basically afraid?

That they say „Okay, let's cut it down again"?

In this country it's possible.

Back to the market.

Exactly these people's freedom of expression is at stake.

In Germany we would never accept it,

if Merkel for example shut down the internet for five days because of a terror threat.

Also: Who is supposed to verify how dangerous the threat really was?

The UN already took a stance in 2016 and declared shutdowns human rights abuses.

Rightfully, says Norbert.

There is no reason that can justify an internet shutdown.

People need internet to communicate with their families when there is a security problem.

People need internet to know where to go by to reach their homes when there is a security problem.

So internet connection is resolving the security problem but is not the problem for security.

That is simple.

Sounds reasonable.

In the evening, Jan transcribes the interview.

We are looking for answers.

Why is the government so afraid by the internet?

We just checked the recordings of our interview with Norbert and noticed that the president

of the ISOC-Chapter very often emphasised that the government doesn't understand the

internet completely and just sees it as a threat for their own power base without seeing

that it can help to make the next step in development and be useful for the simple working population.

And that's why we now also want to speak to the government, more precisely to

Cina Lawson, the Minister of Post and Telecommunication.

We hope she can make us understand the perspective of the ones in power better.

While we wait for an answer from the Ministry Department we meet up with Olevie.

He wants to show us the border to Ghana.

Coincidentally, the way leads through the government district.

Felix, have a look to the right.

- Oh.

Here, somewhere in the Ministry for Post and Telecommunication, lies our inquiry.

What we don't know at that time: We won't get any closer to the minister.

Nobody wants to talk to us.

After five minutes with the moto we are at the border.

Here the people found a loophole to get to the internet during the shutdown and also

journalists were able to ensure some transparency.

I wanted to show you this place because during the shutdown of the internet in Togo the people

came here to use the internet of Ghana.

In this part they are selling Ghana SIM-cards.

There it's the same thing.

In the Ghana part they are selling Togo chips, too.

The microphone fell off.

While Jan reconnects it I want to take a few shots and accidentally film a few soldiers.

Heyheyheyheyhey!

Ah, these are soldiers.

These are soldiers, they don't want to be filmed.

Ok, sorry!

But here I can film?

Yes.

The soldiers keep pointing their flashlights towards us, sending a clear message:

We are not welcome.

When Olevie gets noticeably nervous Jan finishes the interview.

Alright, I think we should go because the soldiers are getting a little bit intense.

Yes, thank you, we are finished.

Even though we are leaving the border area with an uncomfortable feeling, at least we

learned that there have been ways to work around the shutdown.

Just like with the government, we also tried to get interviews with the telecommunication companies.

But either they don't answer at all or this happens: The inbox is full?

The only company that invites us, is located here.

Teolis started service in the beginning of this year.

After Jan attaches the microphone to the company's CEO Jose Anyovi

an assistant hands him the already prewritten interview.

What are we doing here?

The next half hour I film how the CEO reads out the answers one by one from the paper.

Several of our sources suspected that the company had to assure to follow orders by the government.

That's why we actually wanted to know more about the licensing process.

But no chance.

The only thing we get are flawless PR statements.

Teolis applied for the licence which was advertised by the ministry for telecommunications.

An the end of the selection procedure Teolis was on top of the candidate's list.

That's why we got the licence.

We just finished the interview with the Teolis CEO and it definitely was quite an experience

because beforehand we already got all the answers in french and very kindly also in english prewritten.

They are very strict about the publication and very carefully choosing their words to

avoid saying anything that might hurt themselves.

So it's really difficult to get any informations.

We have been in Togo for two weeks now.

Still, we didn't get a justification from the government or an explanation from the network operators.

Even though at the first glance it doesn't look like it, after a closer look we are certain:

The internet is here, just as in Germany, crucial.

Who are we, to permanently complain about slow network expansion?

With a Chai Latte we are sitting in cafés, whining because our instagram feed doesn't load quickly

while the shutdown in Togo made the whole life stop and silenced the voices of thousands of protesters.

Quite intense to be suddenly cut off from the internet.

Fortunately, in Germany we will hopefully never have to experience that.

Could you imagine your lives without internet at all?

What would be the hardest for you to give up?

My Best 3 Gardening / Homesteading Books - Duration: 12:23.

Winters fast approaching and a lot of gardeners find themselves at home itching

to get back into the garden but we can be utilizing this time a little bit

better we can all be learning from books and things like that now in today's

episode we are going to be taking a look at three of my go-to books these are

books that I really enjoy there's a lot of really good information in it and I

suggest you have a little look at them because they really are worth looking at

and that's all coming up after this I'm Tony O'Neill and this is UK Here We Grow

on this channel we deal with all things gardening poultry keeping and beekeeping

if it's the first time you consider clicking subscribe button Bell icon to

be notified each time we put up new content just like this. Today I'd like to

talk to you about three books that I really do spend a lot of time flicking

through and they are really really good books now the reason I'm doing this was

I was approached by Liz Zorab from byther farm and Liz came up with the idea

of bringing a few channels together in maybe a collaboration video where each

of us talks about three of our books that we really like in a bid to help you

guys get exposure to the books that maybe we find fascinating and

informative so it would give you an idea of something that maybe you'll want to

buy and then use throughout winter all the links for all of the channels that are

involved in this collaboration will be down in the description below and I urge

you all to go and check out what books they're using as well because if there's

enough channels here with three books each you're gonna be having twenty and

thirty books that you're gonna be able to choose from I've also put all the

links in the description below for all the books I'm about to talk to you about

so without any further ado I have three books here which I

a really beneficial especially if you new starting out and even if you're

experienced because there's always times that we get stumped by something but my

first one is this book here it's called the veg patch it's a step by step the

veg patch and it's written by Lucy Halsall and Lucy Halsall's a

fantastic writer she just happens to be the editor of Grow Your Own Magazine as

well so and this book is also part of the Royal Horticultural society's library so

it really is a great book now when you're looking through this book it's

really well laid out guys there's sections in here and because of the way

it's broken down it gets it gets you thinking about how the whole process of

garden works what you need to do in the start me you know in the middle and the

end a little bit like a story so the very first section in your is why grow

your own food and it talks about this and talks about the space to grow about

growing crops in small spaces and things like that and it really is really well

laid out the illustrations the photographs and everything is a superb

book talks about tools and equipment choosing the right spot for whatever

crops you're growing growing in raised beds what materials to use for your

raised beds things like this so it really does get down to the nitty gritty

it's one of those books that if you are a complete novice you could pick up and

read and then in spring go out and apply the principles that you've learnt

and be able to get some fantastic crops at the end of the summer so it really is

that good and then later on it goes through speaking about specific plants

so it goes into chillies and rather than just saying or to grow to lose you need

you know sort of 20 to 25 degrees blah-blah-blah-blah-blah it doesn't do

that it's a step by step so rather than focusing on specifics what it does is it

says right okay here's how we germinate it, here's how we sow it, here's how we plant

it and it is step by step by step by step right the way through to harvest that

is fantastic it's golden for anybody who doesn't have that sort of information so

this is a really good book guys like I said pretty much any veg that you could

think about growing kohlrabi parsnips garlic's a lot spinach cut and come again

lettuce and then even talked about the perennial things like Jerusalem

artichokes and and what-have-you it's even got a really good vegetable

planner in there as well so it's a fantastic resource and this

book is available on Amazon like I said I'll put the link below the second book

that I use a lot is this one is another RHS book and it's written by Pippa

Greenwood and Andrew Halstead now pipper Greenwood is a fantastic lady and very very

knowledgeable again and this one is all about pests and disease and all too

often throughout the year we find that our leaves are yellowing or they're

getting blotchy or all of a sudden the plant is dying and we don't understand

why or all of a sudden just starts looking sick and as an experienced

gardener though even sometimes we can get there and we can still be tripped up

by something by thinking it's one thing and then it's another well again this

book here it's all set out in illustrations with photographs showing

you of what the leaf looks like so you can flick through and

literally match your leaves and find what the issues are I mean look how

fantastic those illustrations are they are really really good and it absolutely

covers everything all about soil and nutrients about fungal infection

there types of garden pests like slugs snails and thrips and things like that

it talks about the invertebrate lifecycle so how you can break that

cycle and that's a big one folks if you can break a cycle then you

interrupt that laying pattern and a pretty much a eradicates that pest

from your garden you imagine if you had a slug issue and you were able to break

dust-like cycle twice over the next couple of years

it would make such a massive dent in the slug population that you wouldn't have

to worry about it again and that's the sort of information you get out of this

book it shows you all about controlling things in enclosed spaces like in

greenhouses and stuff it is a fantastic resource and I find myself in here a lot

and then so we've gone through like our for the book and then right at the other

half the back end of the book there's an A to Z of pests and disease

species so if you know you've got parsnips or whatever the case being

here we go we've turned to this page here and we've got broad bean and pea rest so it

tells you there's a description of what to look for for it so you know if you've

got broad beans go to the broad bean section well that's what I've got and it

helps you in order and this book is a little bit back-to-front in one way

because the A to Z is at the back and then you have to go to the front to look

at the pictures but it works so well it is fantastic and it is my go-to book for

any pest and disease because it allows me to find the nitty-gritty of what I

need and deal with that problem and the information I give to you guys in my

videos a lot of it will come from books like this that I've learned over the

years or by trial and error or experience that I picked up from

speaking to other gardeners and I really urge you guys to get out and buy books

like this again it's another RHS book it's fantastic and it's on Amazon and

the link is below for you guys this is a BBC book and it's

written by Carol Klein no this one is a fantastic book because it's all about

propagation and a little while ago I put a link up here we did a video on seed

saving and we also did a video the last video in fact on making a comfrey pipe

which was organic feed plant food those sorts of plants can be divided now I

showed you how to cut the root divisions on on that well this book is full of

information like that and Carol Klein she is just a master at dividing and

propagating all sorts of plants she she will tell you whether to use root

cuttings leaf cuttings whether to layer something it is fantastic and again it

is beautifully presented I mean have a look at that guy's is absolutely

beautifully presented and it's very basic in the format that is written and

it's written for the layman there's no major long terms in it is written well

what we need to do with this is we need to lift this plant we need to cut this

root make sure you put it in the right way cut it just below any leaf node and

all of this sort of things and I mean even as basic as vertical cuttings I

mean look at these illustrations are fantastic they really are good guys and

for those of you seen gardeners world you'll have seen Carol Klein's who's

that loads of it on series and fantastic lady and very knowledgeable especially

about propagation and and

the great thing about it is like I said these books are really down to earth and

they are written for people like you and me and that's a fantastic thing about it

so that's another one is called Carol Klein's grow your own garden how to

propagate all of your plants now like I said guys all the links for all three

these are mine for this collaboration video that is within a group of channels

and I urge you all to visit the playlist for this because I will add a playlist

to my channel with all of the videos in as well so you'll be able to see those

videos and you will get to see what other channels are doing in the way of

books what they are viewing what they're reading through the winter how they are

sorting out their problems and if you're new to the game these are not expensive

guys I think the most expensive one is about twenty something pounds

the others are ten or eleven pounds they are not expensive books but the information

in them is worth hundreds of pounds so I really urge you to get and have a look at

those anyway guys I hope this video was of interest to you if it was don't

forget to give us a thumbs up and like this video sharing it with your friends

because I'm sure they'd be interested to know what books gardeners like myself

are using and the others within the collaboration video and I hope you find

value with the books as well that's really much it from me in this episode

The Truth About Wendy's Famous Frosty - Duration: 4:40.

How many times have you had lunch at Wendy's because you were more interested in the Frosty

than in the burger and fries?

No matter how many times you've eaten a Frosty, though, there's plenty you probably don't

know about this irresistible treat.

Here's the untold truth of the Frosty.

Simply original

Wendy's founder Dave Thomas learned how a

simple menu helped with sales when he managed a few Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises in

the early 1960s.

When Thomas opened the first Wendy's in Columbus, Ohio, in 1969, he carried over the same idea

of a simple menu.

At Wendy's, that original menu consisted of five items: hamburgers, chili, french fries,

soft drinks, and the Frosty.

The original chocolate Frosty remains on the Wendy's dessert menu today.

Shelly Thobe, director of culinary innovation at Wendy's, told Thrillist that people have

probably been dipping their fries into their Frostys for just as long.

Temperature is key

Part of the appeal of the Frosty is its unique

texture.

It's not quite a milkshake, and it's not quite soft-serve ice cream.

That's because founder Dave Thomas wanted a dessert that mimicked the extremely thick

milkshakes he loved as a kid — but he wanted it to require a spoon, not a straw.

And he succeeded when he created the Frosty.

"But it's not a solid or a liquid!"

"So?"

"That can only mean that it's a soquid!'

To maintain the desired thickness and texture, Wendy's serves the Frosty at between 19 and

21 degrees Fahrenheit.

It's up to you whether you can finish it before it moves out of that magic temperature range.

Inflation has been kind

The Frosty on the original Wendy's menu cost

only 35 cents.

And although the current price is nearly triple what it was 49 years ago, the Frosty remains

a reasonable value.

Today, a small Frosty costs about $1 at regular price at most locations, though frequent promotions

often make it even less expensive.

At just $1, the Frosty has remained a reasonably priced fast food dessert option versus its

competitors.

For example, a small Blizzard from Dairy Queen costs an average of $3.69 in 2018, which is

almost $1 higher than it was just one decade ago.

The original McDonald's milkshake was 20 cents in the 1950s, but a small milkshake runs $2.19

on average at McDonald's in 2018.

The Frosty is king when it comes to value.

And you know there's no beating something that's both delicious and cheap.

Formula hacking

If you want to try to hack the Wendy's Frosty

formula, there are plenty of web sites that give you advice on trying to duplicate the

Frosty formula at home, and Wendy's even lists the ingredients for the Frosty online, so

that part is no secret.

But most of the ingredients aren't ones you probably keep in your pantry — and good

luck finding out how much you need of each.

"Free Frosty!"

"They want Frosty?"

"They do not get Frosty!"

The current Wendy's formula is nearly identical to the original formula from 1969, according

to Denny Lynch, the former senior vice president of communications at Wendy's.

He revealed: "The only difference is that ice cream has

a large amount of butterfat, so we've lowered the [percentage] of butterfat in our Frostys

to meet customer demand."

Most of the at-home recipes include things like chocolate milk and ice cream machines,

and they might get you close, but there's nothing like the real thing.

If you want Frostys on-demand, it's best to just take a trip to Wendy's and fill your

freezer.

Not-so-chocolate

When he created the Frosty in 1969, Dave Thomas

wanted the dessert to have a light chocolate flavor that wouldn't overwhelm the taste of

the burgers for his customers.

So he instructed his supplier to mix chocolate and vanilla dairy products to create the mild

flavor of the chocolate Frosty.

In fact, in the early days of franchising Wendy's restaurants, not every location had

constant access to Frosty mix, thanks to supply chain challenges.

When that happened, the restaurants were instructed to use a 50/50 mix of vanilla and chocolate

soft serve mix to create the Frosty until they were able to get their hands on the official

Frosty mix.

What's in a name?

Although the Frosty has been around since the beginning, Wendy's didn't trademark the

name until recently, filing a federal trademark application in 2013.

Soon after, Wendy's filed a lawsuit against United Dairy Farmers, which was selling a

frozen dairy product called "Frosties" made for consumption at home.

The packaging of Frosties consisted of a yellow background with red lettering — and looked

strangely familiar.

The two eventually settled the lawsuit late in 2013, when United Dairy Farmers agreed

to stop using the Frosties name.

Frosty fun-run

If you love Frostys, but feel a little guilty

about all the calories, we have the perfect option in the Wendy's Frosty 5K fun run and

walk in Columbus, Ohio.

Exercise first, then enjoy a guilt-free Frosty!

When you pay an entry fee and sign up for the Wendy's Frosty 5K, which normally occurs

in July, you'll receive a T-shirt, finisher's medal, and, best of all, a Frosty at the finish

line.

In 2018, the race had more than 800 participants and raised $110,000 for the Dave Thomas Foundation

for Adoption.

D'Souza reveals what conservatives must do to win - Duration: 2:37.

Straka: So you did find yourself identifying as a conservative.

That's a far cry from where you ended up, writing books and

making documentaries. I mean, you really, really go there.

You go in deep and you unabashedly tell the truth. So how did you get

to that point where you decided you're really going stick your neck out and

make these documentaries and really tell a bold truth the way that you do?

D'Souza: Well, my career has gone in two phases. In the first phase,

I was kind of a conservative intellectual in which I admired people like

Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, Irving Kristol, Bill Buckley.

I wanted to be part of that kind of conservative intellectual fraternity,

and think about, you may say, abstract political questions.

What's the good society? What kind of principles govern a liberal community?

Things like that, and I was writing more for that audience,

even for the liberal intellectual audience, you might say, at the same time.

I think in 2012, after I made my film on Obama and the Obama administration

came after me, I realized that in my early career, I'd been kind of naive.

I actually had thought of American politics as mere debating

society. The conservatives believed in one set of principles and the liberals

believed in a rival set of principles, and this is a clash of ideas to see

whose principles are going to win in the marketplace of open debate.

D'Souza: I realized that the other side has no interest in open debate,

that there are many of those guys who would be really happy to see me

locked away for ten years if they could get away with it.

Their idea was to put me out of business, to finish me off in terms of my career,

destroy me if they could. And I realized that it's so foolish for us to believe that

these powerful human motives of envy, ambition, rage, lust, hatred,

the kind of motives that play into the human experience, could somehow

be magically excluded from politics. I realized, in fact, that they are

the motor of politics, and that one has to look at the world of ideas,

in a sense, with a grain of salt, and understand that people are motivated,

yes, by ideals, but they're also motivated by a lot of more base, in a way,

more powerful, instincts that work with the ideas. The ideas are, to some

degree, a rationalization for what people really want.

Android Auto - test - Jest Pięknie za kierownicą [ENG SUBS] - Duration: 3:44.

I've said it many times: there's no better GPS than the one in your phone. I mean Google Maps, not the Apple thingy.

There's no built-in GPS in my Mazda, so I usually have my phone set as GPS.

But there's sth better than just a phone and voice instructions.

It's called Android Auto. What it is, how to get it and how to use it?

Android Auto is an app by Google. It changes your phone into car infotainment system. There are Google Maps, but also your phone book, your calendar – everything in one place.

[this is for Poland market – in most countries, you can download it from Google Play store, we can't, so I'm talking abt the workaround]

First and foremost, there's GPS. Android Auto works with Google maps, and they are, simply put, the most precise and the most up-to-date, as many people have Google phones.

So, if there's a pileup 5 kms ahead of you, Google knows – because the phones stop moving along the route.

Of course, there are no perfect things and neither is Google. Sometimes, the maps aren't up to date and you have to look for the route yourself.

But considering this is free or almost free (because it's included in the price of the phone and your monthly phone bill), I don't know of any better choice.

Google shows other routes in real time, along with the time they would take. If you like a certain route or you have sth to do along the way, you can change the route with one touch.

Another function is the calendar. If you use Google calendar, you surely know there's a box for address of the place you plan to visit, be it your beauty salon appointment, a dinner with friends or tyre change.

In Android Auto, you can set the GPS to take you there with just one touch.

Third function is the most obvious – it's calling. Here you have your phone book, last calls, the usual.

In one of my vids I mentioned listening to the music in the car. If you have any music apps on your phone, like Spotify or TuneIn Radio, you can run them within Android Auto.

Android Auto is not the default choice. Quite reasonably, as car manufacturers are developing their own infotainment systems, some better, some worse.

Android Auto becomes more and more available, but it doesn't work the same in all car models. Why?

Because not all cars have touch-screens, and if they do, some work only when the car is stopped – for example, in Mazda.

So, using Android Auto is less convenient, as it's all about the touchscreen.

And you, do you use Android Auto? What car do you drive? What pros and cons of Android Auto do you see? Let me know in the comments below.
