Waching daily Oct 9 2018

When I was a little girl growing up,

I was really irritated

that there were no women astronauts,

and there were no people of color.

I thought, what about if aliens run into this crew?

They're going to think that those are

the only people on earth.

I thought it was unreasonable

not to have everyone represented.

It's critical that Microsoft NASA,

that they're involved in

promoting inclusion and diversity.

Why? Because who decides

which solutions are going to be tested,

makes a difference in how it affects our world.

Today, we are able to get images and ideas

around the world much more rapidly through mixed reality,

building models, being able to share

a 3D image of that model to people in other places,

it helps affirm it creativity.

We all have wonderful imaginations.

So, we need to use every perspective we have.

It's incumbent upon organizations with

the wherewithal to make

sure that they actively include people.

One of the important things is understanding what

you do with your place at the table, what you have.

Thinking about that young girl in

Chicago who just knew she was going to go into space,

I would tell her,

''You have the right idea.''

Just because there's no one else doing

something doesn't mean you

can't be the absolute first one.

Women have contributed to the development

of this world for thousands of generations.

We're going to continue to churn the course.

Welcome to defying gravity, women in space.

I'm very thrilled to share with you some of

the critical contributions women

have made to space exploration,

especially the shuttle program.

So, follow me, and let's get started.

I hope this experience,

hearing about the women who helped to make

the shuttle possible in space exploration possible.

I hope that story sticks.

Don't stand around waiting for someone

else to give you permission to do something.

You go ahead and you make your way.

Doesn't matter about gender ethnicity or whatever,

because we need to use all the talent we

have available for us to solve the world's problems,

and to move us forward.

Introducing the Shiv Disc - Duration: 10:59.

Here we are at the Specialized Win Tunnel, a facility that is really a

monument to our dedication to aerodynamics, and that runs deep

especially in the sport of triathlon. Whether it would be back in 1989 in

co-development with DuPont, on the Specialized DuPont tri spoke, a wheel

that was so iconic for the time, that it actually defined not only shape then, but

even speed today. Or through partnerships with athletes to define the bike leg of

Ironman: Lauri Bowden, Peter Reid. Both World Champions that won on Specialize

in Kona. As you move into the modern time or the development of the bicycles,

though, the shapes have evolved quickly. In 2007, we launched a bike that looked

like a rocket ship, the Transition, that Chris mcCormick piloted to a debut Kona

win, and that bike was totally based off of low frontal area. Crazy skinny.

Two years later we introduced the Shiv TT, a bike with a nose cone with shape from

the front end that is extremely wide, so it sails in a crosswind. That bike was

also debuted to a Kona win, but that year was really pushing the boundaries of UCI

rules. So had at a moment in time where we had to think, "What are we going to do next?"

Are we gonna follow the rules of the previous space, something that really

shouldn't have anything to do with triathlon, or are we going to forge forward and

define the future? In 2011, we introduced a triathlon-specific Shiv, one defined

around aero, fuel, and fit, catering to all the needs of the triathlete. And that

year, Craig Alexander took that bike to an Ironman world record, winning World

Championships, and ultimately going 15 minutes faster on the bike course than

he did the year before.

That definition of aero, fuel, fit still drives us today. In all of the shapes, all

those moments I spoke to, were before we even have this facility. In 2012, we

opened the Win Tunnel, and we really got to work and under this sheet was really

the future. The future of what we believe the proper triathlon bike should be, and

the redefinition of aero, fuel, and fit.

This is the all-new Shiv.

The bike leg of a triathlon is probably the one cycling discipline where aero truly is

everything, and so realizing that, combined with the fact that Kona is the

ultimate race, with all new Shiv, our goal of course was to create the fastest bike

for the Ironman World Championships. Now if you look at the history of aero bikes,

in triathlon, there are really three main eras. In the

beginning, we all used effectively time trial bikes, and strapped our nutrition,

hydration, and spares however we could, and in many cases, we

ruined the aerodynamic performance of the frame and fork.

Then, with the introduction of the first generation Shiv, we were the first to

cast away the UCI rules, and as a result, were able to design a bike we're

carrying all those things was a little to no aerodynamic penalty. Finally, with the

introduction of the all-new Shiv, we've entered a new era where having all those

things that you need for a race actually represents an aerodynamic advantage.

Let's take a look at some of the features that allowed us to turn fuel

and fit into aero performance. Starting at the front of the bike, we see a

reintroduction of the nosecone first found in the original Shiv TT. Like on

that bike, the nosecone allows us to create an optimized cross section shape

around the head tube, while also allowing us to hide away the integrated hydration

hose. Moving up into the cockpit, the central pad spacers also hide away that

hydration hose and are designed using the same free foil optimized shapes as

first found on the Venge. This means that regardless of your pad

stack position, there is effectively no aerodynamic penalty from those spacers.

Moving across to the fork, rather than trying to minimize its frontal area, like

with pretty much every other fork design today, we instead chose to maximize its

ability to sail in crosswinds, like at Kona. In order to do that, we needed to

maximize the available surface area for those air foils to work, and so the

fork blades extend all the way from the axle up to the underside of the base

bar. These shapes are also asymmetrically designed so that they optimally take

into account crosswinds from their respective sides. With the down tube, just

like all of our other aero bikes, we found that there's not much aero

performance to be gained by pushing the shape to an extreme. On the other hand,

there's a lot to lose in terms of weight and stiffness, and so we turn to a

different free foil optimized shape in order to minimize weight, increase

stiffness, and preserve aerodynamic performance, and the volume afforded to

us by that free foil shape allowed us to integrate a fuel cell into the down tube.

At the back of the bike, like with all our other aero platforms today, we saw

that drop seat stays are incredibly important for aerodynamic performance,

and so with all-new Shiv, we wanted to push that to an extreme, but without

negatively impacting rear-end handling or power transfer. Finally, probably the

most striking feature of the all-new Shiv, is the integrated fuel cell in the

seat tube seat post. In the early R&D of the Shiv, we saw that the seat tube and seat post is

incredibly important for aerodynamic performance, even with the rider on board.

This is even more the case in trying to harness the crosswinds, like at Kona.

We developed optimized large airfoil shapes in order to maximize this effect.

At the same time, we recognized that those large air foils had a lot of

volume for storage. Unfortunately, this volume wasn't great for things like

tires and tubes because they would negatively impact the shape. Water, on the

other hand, can fit anywhere. So a feature that was originally born out of

aerodynamic performance has now become the integrated location for hydration.

In the years of R&D and athlete testing since the launch of the first Shiv, we

kept seeing that the way athletes set up their nutrition and hydration actually

mattered more in terms of aero than what we could possibly design in the frame

and fork. Knowing that, our focus with the new Shiv was to figure out how

to accommodate all those things in a way that actually increases aerodynamic

performance. Compared to the fastest possible race-ready setup with

the original Shiv, the all-new Shiv saves nearly a minute out on course at

Kona. Every minute makes a difference, that's why it's important to talk about

the fourth sport of triathlon: your fuel. The goal with the all-new Shiv was to

allow you, the athlete, to carry as much nutrition as possible it's to be able to

blow through aid stations, and save precious time, and carry the fuel that

you're used to, ultimately fuel that you can rely on. The gel that you're used to

eating, you now have the capacity to bring it.

The new Shiv has a down tube fuel cell that allows you to carry whatever you

want, and it's double the size of the fuel cell on the previous Shiv, plus you

can pop out the fuel cell and hide away your tube and tools. And that special

drink mix you're used to carrying? You now have the volume to carry it. The seat

tube fuel cell allows you to carry one and a half liters of fluid, which is more

than two times that of the previous Shiv. But capacity isn't the only aspect we

engineered. We obsessed over where to put your fuel on the bike, so that it's fully

integrated for speed. Being confident in your fit is of the utmost importance to

the triathlete so we knew that the all-new Shiv had to be adjustable and

adaptable for every individual rider across all sizes. Retul technology has

elevated the way that we can analyze rider data in order to best determine

fit ranges. Retul technology captures bike and body data across all different

disciplines and distances, so that we can analyze actual riders' positions in

order to determine those fit ranges. After analyzing all of the Retul data

and taking in a lot of rider feedback, we determine we needed to lower positions

across all the sizes without giving up anything at the higher ends. With a 115

millimeter adjustment for the pads on the front end, we're able to accommodate

both the lowest and highest positions for the most flexible riders as well as

the rest of us that need a more upright position on the bike. With all the reach

adjustments and the three different base bar positions, every rider can find their

ideal fit on the all-new Shiv. None of that hard work matters if your

fit doesn't go with you everywhere you go to train or race. The stable and secure

front end is easily removable and your fit stays static even when you box it up.

Five minutes with an allen key and five bolts, and your front end is safely

packed up without changing your fit. A few minutes in the hotel room putting

the bike back together quicker than ever gets you to the start line faster with

more time and less stress. Travel, train, and race with confidence. The Shiv lets

you focus on your fitness and not worry about your fit. And there we have it this

is the all-new S-Works Shiv, a bike that we believe redefines aerodynamics, fuel,

and fit. So this launch edition bike will only come in this colorway and this spec

once, and the first six bikes have already been spoken for: They're going to

our pros at Kona. But the next several hundred, those are for you.

It comes specifically in this colorway, this spec, and even with a custom case

designed for it, for ease of travel. Reservations are open on Specialized.com.

The first bikes will begin to deliver to our riders in March of 2019,

and it's an extremely limited quantity, so if you want one,

get in line immediately. On behalf of the entire team here that's built this Shiv,

we're super excited to bring it to you. We know whether you're racing in

Kona or anywhere else around the world, this is the bike that you'll set PRs on

in 2019. Thanks for watching.

Is the 2019 Ford Edge ST Worthy of the ST Badge? | Edmunds - Duration: 14:27.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

SPEAKER: Ford says nobody buys cars anymore,

except the Mustang.

So it isn't going to make cars anymore, except the Mustang.

The new focus, no pun intended, is SUVs.

Since its introduction 10 years ago, the Ford Edge

has been steadily improving.

2019 brings us the most technologically advanced,

sophisticated Ford Edge yet, with plenty

of options for making it perfectly suited to you.

The Edge is Ford's midsized family hauler

that it says handles like a car, but is better,

because it's an SUV.

We're here in Park City, Utah to drive the Ford Edge ST

and find out if the performance version is the one you want.

Across all the models, I think the Edge is sort

of a traditional SUV shape.

It doesn't have that puffed-up hatchback look

that some crossovers have.

It also isn't just a huge, big box like a full-size SUV,

sort of right in the middle.

It looks nice.

It's not exceptional.

It isn't gorgeous like, say, the Alfa crossover.

The Edge ST has some details that I

do think make it look more performance oriented, even

from the outside.

First of all, it has that ST badge,

which is going to be a reoccurring

topic of conversation during this review.

But it also has some differences in the back.

It has a blacked-out, lower rear valence and a different set

of tailpipes.

It really does look different than the Titanium or the lower

trim levels.

The Edge offers some customization

options in terms of looks, most notably

in wheel sizes, which you can get,

I think, anywhere from 18 to 21, depending

on which model you're buying.

Edmunds as a whole wasn't super fond

of the Edge when it first came out.

We thought it was underpowered and just not super impressive.

The big change for 2019 is that there are a lot more engine

options.

Most particularly, you can get the 2.7-liter turbocharged V6,

which has 335 horsepower.

And I think it's like 380 pound-feet of torque,

which is kind of a lot.

I mean, it's like 25 more horsepower

than an EcoBoost Mustang.

So we're really not suffering from a lack

of performance here.

And I've just been driving this car

in the regular, standard driving mode.

And I haven't had any problem passing people here

on the freeway.

Yesterday, when we were driving in the mountains,

I did notice that it was sort of huffing and puffing

a little bit, much like myself while climbing up a hill.

And I wish that I had a sport button,

because if you do turn it into Sport, you get more sound,

and you get a different shift programming.

It's very noticeable.

It's a much faster car if you have it in Sport Mode.

And I like the way that it runs in Sport Mode.

I don't love the way that it sounds.

I think it's all that piped-in sound.

The thing I don't understand about it, though,

is, why not just have that be the base mode for the ST?

You're paying extra money to have

the sporty version of the Edge.

So why would you ever want it not in Sport Mode,

especially because it doesn't change anything

about the suspension, which is the main reason, for me,

that I would want something not to be in a sport mode, right?

Like, some sport modes in cars, they

make the suspension stiffer.

So it really is more for performance

driving, because it's uncomfortable

in normal driving.

This vehicle takes you out of Sport Mode

if you stop and go into park or reverse,

and then go back into drive without turning the car off.

I don't understand why it does that, because if you already

had it in Sport Mode, I'm assuming that you wanted

to be driving in Sport Mode.

If you're interested in the Ford Edge ST,

I'm assuming that you know the ST badge.

It's been on the Fiesta.

It's been on the Focus.

It was big in Europe.

And it's always sort of stood for a smaller

car with really great handling.

And I would say it's good handling

for an SUV of this size.

I don't know if it's ST handling.

I mean, I don't feel like I want to just go flat out

around corners in this thing.

It definitely still feels like a big vehicle.

And I think, if I pushed it hard, it might push back.

The suspension is pretty traditional.

It hasn't changed a lot in the last few years.

And it's fine, you know?

It's holding the car up and taking me

around turns in a fairly flat manner.

It isn't adjustable in any way, though.

So there's no modes for different kinds of rides,

if you want that.

I think it's an interesting choice

that Ford put the eight-speed automatic in the Edge ST,

because they also have this 10-speed automatic that's

what's in the Raptor.

And it's really good.

And the eight-speed isn't bad, but this engine and car,

I think, could have really benefited

from having a more performance-oriented

transmission.

This one, I think, searches a bit.

Especially if you have it in Sport Mode,

and you're going downhill, it drops gears

till you're revving to the moon.

And you're like, what are you even doing?

Ford wants the ST to be in competition

with other performance mid-sized SUVs.

In fact, in the press materials, Ford even

mentioned some by name, including

the Audi Q5 and the Porsche Macan, even the Maserati.

I like the ambition.

But having been in several of those vehicles,

I have to say that Ford is reaching a little bit.

The performance isn't quite there in the feel of the car.

And the interior is definitely not a match-up with those cars.

I mean, there's nothing horrible about sitting in here.

But there's nothing spectacular, either.

It's very monotone.

There's this huge dash that's just completely plain plastic,

and it actually reflects quite a lot into the window

when you're driving.

Console is also very plain and sort of weirdly laid out.

Like, why is the screen so small, and then this surround

is so big?

And why is there all this blank space around these buttons?

And why are some of the buttons for temperature

control on this side, and some on this side, and some

down here?

I mean, this is kind of all temperature control.

But then the volume is here in the middle.

It's not super thoughtful.

On the other hand, the console does have

a fair amount of storage space.

It has a little secret pouch in here

that is big enough for a wallet or a cell phone.

You couldn't put a bag in there.

There's this charging pad here in this console.

Only problem with that is, you really

don't want to leave your phone there, because it gets hot.

In fact, you don't really want to leave anything

in there, because it gets hot.

Then there's this slot here, so you can actually

see the phone, two cup holders.

There's another cell phone slot here,

which is sort of a clever placement,

although the lip of the console hangs over it,

makes it a little bit hard to get it in and out.

The console itself it's not very long,

but you could fit a lot of tall things in it.

The 2019 Edge is nicer than the previous model

in terms of material.

The previous model had a really terrible-feeling steering

wheel.

I'm not going to say that this is something that I

want to take to bed and cuddle.

It's not that nice.

But it's not bad.

The stitching looks good, and it isn't

uncomfortable on your hands.

Ford is doing a good job with the technology

that it's putting into the car.

You can get Sync 3.

You can use Waze.

You can use Apple Maps.

You can use Google Maps, Android Auto, all of that stuff.

Hooks right in, it's easy to use,

it's pretty easy to figure out.

I wish that they made it look more technologically

advanced, and also more performance-y,

especially here in the ST. The Edge

could use some of the style that the Mustang has

in its recent iterations.

The base-level Edge starts out in the high $20,000 range,

which is really a pretty good deal.

I mean, this is a big vehicle.

It's comfortable.

It's easy to drive.

It has a reliable engine and a ton of cargo space.

By the time you hit the ST, you're

looking at high 40s, even the 50s.

And there's a lot of other stuff in that range

that gives you a better interior and more power.

When you're shopping for a midsize SUV,

you have a very important choice to make,

because you could get a seven- or eight-passenger three-row

midsize SUV.

Or, in about the same price range and about the same size

exterior, you could get a five-passenger midsize SUV

that has more cargo space.

So that's a decision that you have to make,

whether you're planning on carrying

more people or more stuff.

Manufacturers seem to assume that if you want a three-row,

you don't want a whole lot of sportiness,

or you're not that interested in a gorgeous exterior,

because you're going to be carrying around a soccer

team all day long.

A lot of times, if what you want is just a bigger car,

you're going to be looking at the five-passenger midsize SUV.

And that is what the Edge is.

Because of how many cars are in the midsize segment,

you could find a ton of models and say that they

compete with the Edge.

You might be looking at the Audi Q5, which

is a similar passenger space, slightly

smaller, and a little bit--

I don't know.

What's the word?

Posher.

Another vehicle that's in the same segment

but does a radically different thing would be the Jeep Grand

Cherokee-- again, a comfortable vehicle,

carries about the same amount of people, less cargo space,

but more activity based.

This car, even though it is all-wheel drive,

is not really an off-roader.

One place that the Ford Edge really shines

is in cargo space.

There is a ton of room back there, more

than anything else in the segment.

There's 73 cubic feet of cargo space

if you put all the seats down.

And they go down really easy with the touch of a button.

And it's almost 40 cubic feet with them up.

So you could take people on a trip

and still have room for all the gear.

Overall, the Edge is a pleasant driving experience.

It's comfortable.

It handles in a very predictable manner.

And you feel pretty safe.

I do have a pretty serious complaint, though,

and that is the visibility.

These long, stretched-out, and very wide front pillars--

I mean, a huge blind spot, not just on the driver side,

but even on the passenger side.

These kind of blind spots bother you

not just on a twisty road where you

can't see what's coming next, but just

driving around a parking lot.

Like, you're in the Trader Joe's trying to make a turn,

and there could be somebody with a shopping cart right there.

You won't even see them.

While I don't love the Edge's interior overall,

it does have some nice options.

And this big, giant panoramic glass roof is one of them.

It's very pretty.

My only complaint about it would be that the shade for it

is really slow and really loud.

[WHIRRING]

[SIGHS]

You can't even sleep while it's going up because it's so loud.

A benefit to not having a third row in a big SUV

is, you have so much room back here.

This is great.

This is a really nice back seat.

Plenty of space under the seat in front of you,

so you can put your little feet under there

without hitting a bunch of weird stuff.

And also, it's really nice, and light, and airy in here.

So if you imagine your kids sitting back here,

they've got a view.

They've got sunshine.

They can see what's happening in the world around them.

I mean, it's great.

A lot of times, the backseat is kind of a punishment.

And this is a nice place to be.

This is a road trip for sure.

The actual seats in the back are very comfortable on the sides.

The center could use a little bit of work.

It's plenty soft enough.

But the way that the little fold-down armrest

sticks into the lower back is not very comfortable.

So I wouldn't want to sit here.

I would say it's really more of a four-passenger

with an emergency five option.

Ooh, cup holders.

The 2019 Edge does have some bragging rights.

Ford has really done a good job of looking

at contemporary safety technology,

figuring out which things people are going to want,

and making those standard in the car

at all of the various trim levels.

For example, things like backup cameras, lane monitoring, lane

keep assist-- it's all just part of Ford's 360 Safety Suite.

You get it no matter which trim level you buy,

which is awesome.

Before, it was like, well, you'll

have to spend a lot of money to keep your family safe.

And now, it's just part of every trim.

If you want even more safety, you could add some stuff on.

And while I've been on camera numerous times saying,

I don't think you really need all this stuff,

I'm going to admit that lane centering is really cool.

So lane centering is different from lane keep assist.

What lane keep assist does is, if you start to cross over

a line, it brings you back.

What lane centering does is, it looks far ahead,

and it sees the lines, and it makes very slight adjustments

to keep you between those lines.

It's really cool.

It's not quite autonomous driving.

But it's one step below it.

And when you use it with adaptive cruise control, which

is also an option, then it can kind of

monitor the traffic in front of you,

slow the car down if the traffic in front of you

is slowing down, and keep you in the lanes.

And it'll really do it around turns.

I mean, we tested it yesterday on some fairly curvy highways.

One thing to keep in mind, though,

is that it doesn't slow the car down based

on the severity of the turn.

So if you're trying to use it at 80 miles an hour

on a very curvy road, it doesn't know

that you shouldn't go into that turn at 80 miles an hour.

You really do need to still be paying attention.

You need to use the brakes.

You need to be there to save it.

Mileage for all these midsize SUVs is in the 20 to 25 range.

And stepping up to the ST drops you to about 21

combined, compared to 25 if you just have the front-wheel drive

base model 2 liter.

After two days in the Ford Edge, I have two answers

to two different questions.

One is, is the Ford Edge a good option as a family vehicle?

Yeah, for sure.

It's comfortable.

It's easy to drive.

And it has a ton of cargo space--

I mean, a lot.

The other question was, does the Ford Edge ST

deserve that ST badge?

And that one, mm, maybe not this year.

Everything I like about the Ford Edge

is available in the lower models or in the Titanium.

And the ST just doesn't quite commit to that true performance

lifestyle.

It should be just a little bit faster,

sound a little bit better, have a little more that stands out

from just the regular Ford Edge, and it doesn't.

So if you really want a Sports UV, there are better options.

But you should look at the Edge as a family hauler.

Why we choke under pressure -- and how to avoid it | Sian Leah Beilock - Duration: 15:14.

One of the most humiliating things

that you can say about someone is "they choked."

And boy, do I know that feeling.

Growing up, I was an avid athlete.

My main sport was soccer, and I was a goalkeeper,

which is both the best and the worst position on the field.

You see, when you're a goalie, you get this special uniform,

you get all the glory for a great shot saved,

but you also get the grief when you land a shot in the goal.

When you're a goalie,

all eyes are on you,

and with that comes the pressure.

I distinctly remember one game in high school.

I was playing for the California state team

which is part of the Olympic Development Program.

I was having a great game ...

until I realized that the national coach was standing right behind me.

That's when everything changed.

In a matter of seconds,

I went from playing at the top to the bottom of my ability.

Just knowing that I was being evaluated changed my performance

and forever how I thought about the mental aspect of how we perform.

All of a sudden the ball seemed to go in slow motion,

and I was fixated on my every move.

The next shot that came I bobbled,

but thankfully it didn't land in the goal.

The shot after that,

I wasn't so lucky:

I tipped it right into the net.

My team lost;

the national coach walked away.

I choked under the pressure of those evaluative eyes on me.

Just about everyone does it from time to time --

there are so many opportunities,

whether it's taking a test,

giving a talk,

pitching to a client

or that special form of torture I like to call the job interview.

(Laughter)

But the question is why.

Why do we sometimes fail to perform up to our potential under pressure?

It's especially bewildering in the case of athletes

who spend so much time physically honing their craft.

But what about their minds?

Not as much.

This is true off the playing field as well.

Whether we're taking a test of giving a talk,

it's easy to feel like we're ready --

at the top of our game --

and then perform at our worst when it matters most.

It turns out that rarely do we practice

under the types of conditions we're actually going to perform under,

and as a result,

when all eyes are on us,

we sometimes flub our performance.

Of course, the question is, why is this the case?

And my experience on the playing field --

and in other important facets of my life --

really pushed me into the field of cognitive science.

I wanted to know how we could reach our limitless potential.

I wanted to understand how we could use our knowledge

of the mind and the brain

to come up with psychological tools that would help us perform at our best.

So why does it happen?

Why do we sometimes fail to perform up to what we're capable of

when the pressure is on?

It may not be so surprising to hear that in stressful situations, we worry.

We worry about the situation,

the consequences,

what others will think of us.

But what is surprising is that we often get in our own way

precisely because our worries prompt us to concentrate too much.

That's right --

we pay too much attention to what we're doing.

When we're concerned about performing our best,

we often try and control aspects of what we're doing

that are best left on autopilot,

outside conscious awareness,

and as a result,

we mess up.

Think about a situation where you're shuffling down the stairs.

What would happen if I asked you

to think about what you're doing with your knee

while you're doing that?

There's a good chance you'd fall on your face.

We as humans only have the ability to pay attention to so much at once,

which is why, by the way,

it's not a good idea to drive and talk on the cell phone.

And under pressure,

when we're concerned about performing at our best,

we can try and control aspects of what we're doing

that should be left outside conscious control.

The end result is that we mess up.

My research team and I have studied this phenomenon of overattention,

and we call it paralysis by analysis.

In one study, we asked college soccer players to dribble a soccer ball

and to pay attention to an aspect of their performance

that they would not otherwise attend to.

We asked them to pay attention

to what side of the foot was contacting the ball.

We showed that performance was slower and more error-prone

when we drew their attention to the step-by-step details

of what they were doing.

When the pressure is on,

we're often concerned with performing at our best,

and as a result we try and control what we're doing

to force the best performance.

The end result is that we actually screw up.

In basketball,

the term "unconscious" is used to describe a shooter who can't miss.

And San Antonio Spurs star Tim Duncan has said,

"When you have to stop and think, that's when you mess up."

In dance, the great choreographer, George Balanchine,

used to urge his dancers,

"Don't think, just do."

When the pressure's on,

when we want to put our best foot forward,

somewhat ironically,

we often try and control what we're doing in a way that leads to worse performance.

So what do we do?

Knowing that we have this overactive attention,

how do we ensure that we perform at our best?

A lot of it comes down to the prefrontal cortex,

that front part of our brain that sits over our eyes

and usually helps us focus in positive ways.

It often gets hooked on the wrong things.

So how do we unhook it?

Something as simple as singing a song,

or paying attention to one's pinky toe,

as pro golfer Jack Nicklaus was rumored to do,

can help us take our mind off those pesky details.

It's also true that practicing under conditions

that we're going to perform under --

closing the gap between training and competition

can help us get used to that feeling of all eyes on us.

This is true off the playing field as well.

Whether it's getting ready for an exam

or preparing for a big talk --

one that might have a little pressure associated with it --

(Laughter)

getting used to the types of situations you're going to perform under

really matters.

When you're taking a test, close the book,

practice retrieving the answer from memory under timed situations,

and when you're giving a talk,

practice in front of others.

And if you can't find anyone who will listen,

practice in front of a video camera or even a mirror.

The ability to get used to what it will feel like can make the difference

in whether we choke or thrive.

We've also figured out some ways to get rid of those pesky worries

and self-doubts that tend to creep up in the stressful situations.

Researchers have shown that simply jotting down your thoughts and worries

before a stressful event

can help to download them from mind --

make them less likely to pop up in the moment.

It's kind of like when you wake up in the middle of the night

and you're really worried about what you have to do the next day,

you're trying to think about everything you have to accomplish,

and you write it down and then you can go back to sleep.

Journaling, or getting those thoughts down on paper,

makes it less likely they'll pop up and distract you in the moment.

The end result is that you can perform your best when it matters most.

So up until now,

I've talked about what happens when we put limits on ourselves

and some tips we can use to help perform up to our potential.

But it's important to remember

that it's not just our own individual being

that can put limits and that can perform poorly;

our environment has an effect on whether we choke or thrive.

Our parents, our teachers, our coaches, our bosses all influence

whether or not we can put our best foot forward when it matters most.

Take math as an example.

That's right, I said it:

math.

Lots of people profess to choke or are anxious about doing math,

whether it's taking a test or even calculating the tip on a dinner bill

as our smart friends look on.

And it's quite socially acceptable

to talk about choking or performing poorly in math.

You don't hear highly educated people walking around talking about the fact

or bragging about the fact that they're not good readers,

but you hear people all the time bragging about how they're not math people.

And unfortunately,

in the US, this tends to be more so among girls and women

than boys and men.

My research team and I have tried to understand

where this fear of math comes from,

and we've actually peered inside the brains

using functional magnetic resonance imaging,

of people who are worried about math.

We've shown that math phobia correlates with a concrete visceral sensation

such as pain,

of which we have every right to feel anxious.

In fact, when people who are worried about math

are just getting ready to take a math test --

they're not even taking it, they're just getting ready --

areas of the brain known the be involved in our neural pain response are active.

When we say math is painful,

there's some truth to it for some people.

But where does this math anxiety come from?

It turns out that math anxiety is contagious.

When adults are worried about math,

the children around them start worrying, too.

As young as first grade,

when kids are in classrooms

with teachers who are anxious about their own math ability,

these kids learn less across the school year.

And it turns out that this is more prevalent in girls than boys.

At this young age,

kids tend to mimic same-sex adults,

and at least in the US,

over 90 percent of our elementary school teachers are women.

Of course, it's not just what happens in the classroom.

Social media plays a big role here, too.

It wasn't so long ago

that you could purchase a Teen Talk Barbie

that when the cord was pulled,

it would say things like,

"Will we ever have enough clothes?"

and "Math class is tough."

And just a few years ago,

major retailers were marketing T-shirts at our young girls

that read things like, "I'm too pretty to do math,"

or, "I'm too pretty to do my homework so my brother does it for me."

And let's not forget about the parents.

Oh, the parents.

It turns out that when parents are worried about their own math ability

and they help their kids a lot with math homework,

their kids learn less math across the school year.

As one parent put it,

"I judge my first grader's math homework

by whether it's a one-glass assignment or a three-glass night."

(Laughter)

When adults are anxious about their own math ability,

it rubs off on their kids

and it affects whether they choke or thrive.

But just as we can put limits on others,

we can take them off.

My research team and I have shown

that when we help parents do fun math activities with their kids --

rather than, say, just doing bedtime stories or bedtime reading,

they do bedtime math,

which are fun story problems to do with your kids at night,

not only do children's attitudes about math improve,

but their math performance across the school year improves as well.

Our environment matters.

From the classroom to parents to media,

and it can really make a difference in terms of whether we choke or thrive.

Fast-forward from my high school soccer game

to my freshman year in college.

I was in the chemistry sequence for science majors,

and boy did I not belong.

Even though I studied for my first midterm exam --

I thought I was ready to go --

I bombed it.

I literally got the worst grade in a class of 400 students.

I was convinced I wasn't going to be a science major,

that maybe I was dropping out of college altogether.

But then I changed how I studied.

Instead of studying alone,

I started studying with a group of friends

who at the end of the study session would close their book

and compete for the right answer.

We learned to practice under stress.

If you could've looked inside my brain during that first midterm exam,

you likely would've seen a neural pain response

a lot like the math-anxious individuals I study.

It was probably there during the stressful study situation as well.

But when I walked into the final,

my mind was quiet,

and I actually got one of the highest grades in the entire class.

It wasn't just about learning the material;

it was about learning how to overcome my limits when it mattered most.

What happens in our heads really matters,

and knowing this,

we can learn how to prepare ourselves and others for success,

not just on the playing field but in the boardroom

and in the classroom as well.

Thank you.

(Applause)

JBL Endurance Sprint vs Sony WI-SP600N Headphones Review - RTINGS.com - Duration: 11:38.

Hey guys Marc here from rtings.com and today we're comparing JBL Endurance Sprint Vs,

the Sony WI-SP600N

Both are sports oriented headphones with a stable fit for running and working out but

the Sony are noise cancelling which also makes them quite a bit more expensive than the JBL.So

how do they compare sound and feature wise and should pay more to get the sonys or are

the JBL a better value for your money.

Well in this review we will be comparing their Design, sound quality and isolation which

you will be able to hear for your self a bit later on in the video.

Well also compare their active features and connection options.

But as always lets start with what's in the box.

So, there's not much difference in their respective boxes.

In the Sonys box you have 3 additional tip sizes, plus, an extra pair of stability fins,

a micro usb charging cable the manuals and the Sp600 headphones

It's about the same for the JBLs box.

So, you have the manuals, 2 extra tip sizes, the USB charging cable and the JBL endurance

sprint headphones.

Now let's get the boxes out of the way and compared their design.

Build quality the Sonys have the slight edge over the JBL.

The JBL Endurance Sprint have a cool ear-hook design that feels durable and looks a lot

more high-end then their price would suggest.

They have a decently dense rubber coating on the ear buds and the hooks are thick and

flexible and should maintain a stable fit once behind your ears.

The hooks even have magnetic plates that help them stick to the ear buds, so you can attach

the ear buds to your backpack or keys.

Unfortunately, the cables are quite thin and not as heavily rubberized as the rest the

design.

its shouldn't be an issue for most but if the cable does get hooked on something while

your working out it will more easily snap than that of the Sonys

Here the SP600N's cable looks and feels more durable, they also have smaller denser

ear buds that won't break if you accidently drop them once or twice and their in-line

control module is well made and feels sturdy without but it's a little bulky and tugs

on the left earbuds which won't be ideal for more strenuous activities.

The JBL also have an IPX7 rating compared to the Sonys IPX4 so the Endurance sprint

should be water resistant but we do not yet have a sweat or water resistance test as of

yet, so we cannot definitively say the JBL are more sweatproof.

As for comfort, here the Sonys have the upper hand and are bit more comfortable than the

JBL.

The JBL like the Sony have an in-ear fit but do not come with as many tip options to help

you find the right fit.

They also have an ear-hook design which can get a little frustrating to put on correctly

and you do feel the hook stem behind your ear when running.

However, it does make them a bit more stable than the Sonys which have a more typical wireless

in-ear design with stability tips.

The JBL also come with these stabilizer tips that to help lock the ear buds in place but

it does take up a bit of space in you ear which may get a bit fatiguing during longer

listening sessions.

The Sony on the other hand have a more typical in-ear fit but since they come with multiple

tip sizes and types they are easier to find a comfortable fit.

Unfortunately, they do not have the best cble management and the inline remote does make

them a bit less stable overall however If your used to in-ears you will prefer the Sonys

over the JBL.

Lastly for their control schemes, The Sony SP600N are a lot easier to use and more precise

than the JBL Endurance Sprint.

The JBL have touch sensitive tactile controls on the left ear bud.

It's a nice addition at this price range since there aren't many touch sensitive

in-ears let alone below a 100$.

Swiping up and down controls the volume and tapping on the JBL logo pause and resumes

tracks and also manages calls.

If you tap twice its fast forwards and 3 times rewinds.

Unfortunately, though the controls are fairy simple they are some what imprecise and can

get bit frustrating to use especially when running.

Swiping up and down does not always register and will often pause or skip tracks just when

the song starts getting good.

Also, the touch-sensitive surface will often turn on the headphones by accident if they

are dangling by your neck or by your side.

Its not the biggest issue since they have an auto off feature, but it still wastes a

bit of battery life.

The Sony on the other hand have a very simple control scheme on their in-line remote.

They have a volume rocker, a multi function play, pause and call/music management that

skip tracks if you press twice and rewinds if you press 3 times.

They also have a dedicated noise cancelling button to enable the feature.

Its straightforward its efficient and its easy to use.

So overall design wise The Sony are bit better in most aspects.

They're more comfortable, they're better built, and they have easier to use controls.

However, the JBL offer a unique design and a decent build quality for their price range.

They're just not as easy to use or as comfortable, even if they should de a bit more sweat resistant

overall.

But now let's compare their sound quality and isolation with Sam.

Now let's compare their sound quality isolation and leakage with Sam.

If sound quality is your priority, then we would recommend the JBL over the Sony, since

overall it has a more neutral and accurate sound.

But before looking at their measurement results, we're going to play a recording we have

done with these headphones, so you can get an idea about how their sound compares for

yourself.

Just keep in mind that this is a relative comparison, and not an absolute one.

So it is good for seeing which headphone has more bass or treble for example, but you won't

be able to judge their actual sound profile.

And if you get one of these headphones and listen to the same track that we've used

here, you most likely won't hear the same thing.

Here we have the frequency response of the

JBL Endurance Sprint on the left and the Sony WI-SP600N on the right.

As you can see the JBL has a mostly flat response, but with a tilt favouring bass and treble

frequencies.

This gives them a classic V-shaped or smiley face response, which makes their sound a bit

more exciting by hyping up the bass and treble ranges.

However, this is at the expense of deemphasizing the mid-range, so vocals and lead instruments

will be nudged towards the back of the mix.

The Sony on the other hand, doesn't have as flat a response.

It is noticeably heavy in the bass range, and lacking in the mid and treble ranges.

This gives them a sound profile which is bass-heavy, but lacking detail and presence.

So some people may find them a bit boomy and muddy sounding.

In terms of frequency response consistency, both of these headphones deliver the same

of bass and treble with every re-seat, but you have to make sure that you are using the

tips that are the correct size for your ears.

Otherwise, you may experience a noticeable drop in bass.

Now for isolation and leakage, we have also recorded a comparison, which we're going

to play now.

First up, is isolation.

So the interesting thing here is that the JBL doesn't have active noise cancellation,

but the Sony does, and yet, it is the JBL that outperforms the Sony slightly.

In the bass range, the JBL provides more isolation overall, but has a weak spot around 50Hz.

The Sony on the other hand, doesn't isolate as much, but doesn't have a weak spot either.

In the mid-range, these headphones perform almost identically.

Both of the have a weak spot around 200Hz, and their isolation progressively improves

as we go higher in frequency.

The treble isolation of the JBL is similar to their bass isolation.

They provide a higher overall isolation, but have a weak spot around 8KHz.

The Sony on the other hand, provides a bit less overall isolation, but they do it more

evenly.

Now let's listen to the leakage recording.

In terms of leakage, both of these headphones perform great and barely leak.

Our measurements show that the JBL leaks a bit less than the Sony, but you don't really

need to worry about the leakage of these headphones, unless you are blasting your music in a very

quiet environment like a library or an elevator.

Now let's go back to Marc

And now for their active features and connection options

Latency wise the sony do a much better job than the JBL

The Sonys have about 174ms of latency which is on the low end for most Bluetooth headphones

but still won't be ideal for watching a lot of videos.

However, the JBL do much worse at 240 ms.

Which is quite noticeable making them a lot worse for occasionally watching YouTube videos

or for gaming on your phone.

As for their wireless range theres not much difference.

The JBL reached up to 37ft when obstructed and 122ft in direct line of sight compared

to the sony at 35ft and 121ft respectively.

This means both headphones won't be ideal for big office environments or for pairing

to fix Bluetooth source like a TV or Pc and walking around your home, but they should

both be fine if you have your phone on you,

For their battery life here the JBL do a lot better than the Sonys.

The JBL have 9 hours of continuous playtime and charge fully in 1.7 hours.

They also have a good if a tad too aggressive auto-off timer that saves a lot of power.

They will automatically witch off after 5 to -10 minutes of inactivity which is great

like the Sonys which have 5.6 hours of battery life but do not automatically switch off.

They charge a little faster at 1.5 hours but the overall they have a worse battery performance.

App wise the Sony WI-SP600N work with the Sony headphones connect app where as the JBL

Endurance sprint do not have support for the JBL Headphones app.

This makes the sonys a lot more customizable and versatile than the JBL.

You can EQ their sound quality to better match what you listening to thanks to the app. you

can also adjust the level of noise cancellation add room effects and you get an in-app player.

The Lack of an app for the JBL is noticeable but expected since most Budget JBL headphones

do not support the app

Lastly for their connection options.

They are both Bluetooth only headphones that do not come with audio cables and will not

provide audio over usb.

However, this is to be expected for most similarly designed wireless in-ears.

So in the end between the JBL endurance sprint and the Sony WI-SP600N which one should you

choose.

Well if your getting them primarily for sports then get the JBL they offer a better value

for your money and they have a more stable and s ear-hook design The JBL have a better

battery life, isolate more with their passive fit than the noise cancelling Sonys and they

have a better-balanced default sound.

On the other hand, the sonys come with an EQ so you can make them sound the way you

like they are also a more comfortable and have a better design and build quality overall

than the JBL.

The Sonys overall feel like casual headphones you would use for sports whereas the JBL feel

like sports headphones that you might use casually on your way to the gym.

And that's pretty much it

So which headphones do you use to work out? and if you have any other headphones you want

us to review let us know in the comments below

How old nuclear bomb tests are still haunting San Francisco - Duration: 10:23.

- [Past Narrator] This is the key.

It is here that the military, and scientific personnel

of Joint Task Force One will conduct the tests

with the atomic bomb.

(rumbling)

- [Narrator] You've probably seen this footage.

In 1946, the United States began testing nuclear bombs

at the Marshall Islands, in the Pacific.

The military detonated a total

of 67 nukes there, over 12 years,

and in the process, they irradiated local island residents,

people involved in the testing,

Japanese fishermen, and even the islands themselves.

But that radiation is still causing problems today,

decades later, and far beyond the Marshall Islands.

It's front page news thousands of miles away.

- Some disturbing new revelations.

- [Narrator] It's let to whistle-blowers,

and angry government hearings.

- Shame on our supervisors!

- [Narrator] To a neighborhood

that feels poisoned by the government,

and to a case of ecological fraud

that sent two people to prison, so far.

- And I can tell when people are lying to me,

and you know what?

My bullshit meter just went off.

(booming)

(introspective music)

- [Narrator] This story takes place about 4,700 miles away

from the Marshall Islands, in San Francisco.

The city today is in the grips of a housing crisis.

The population is growing, land is at a premium,

and new housing is desperately needed,

and one of the biggest new developments is

in an area call Bayview-Hunters Point.

It's a classic gentrification story.

A brand new, expensive development, built next

to an established, lower income,

historically black community.

It's also the site of radioactive waste,

an alleged cover-up, and some criminal convictions.

Less classic.

- I mean, I couldn't believe it.

I really couldn't.

- [Narrator] Chris Roberts is a freelance reporter

who works with The Verge's sibling site, Curbed.

Chris has been reporting on this story since 2016,

when people familiar

with the Hunters Point developments started telling

him the same thing.

- They said, look, you should really look into this.

Things are bad, and they're worse

than they've been reported.

- [Narrator] The controversy stems

from the land the development sits on.

It's the site of a defunct naval shipyard,

at the edge of the Bayview-Hunters Point community.

Decades ago, the shipyard

actually helped created the neighborhood.

- People moved from all over the country

to work at the shipyard,

predominantly African American people.

During World War II, San Francisco's black population grew

by 600%.

Not only did the Navy transform Hunters Point,

Hunters Point transformed San Francisco.

- [Narrator] The shipyard was shut down back in 1989,

and soon after, city officials began eyeing it for housing.

It's been slow going, but the Navy handed the first parcel

of land over to the city in 2004.

And in 2014, a handful of condos

and town homes hit the market,

under the name, The San Francisco Shipyard.

But there's a problem that goes all the way back to this.

(booming)

In 1946, the US detonated a nuke under water

for the first time, to see what would happen

to a nearby fleet of abandoned ships.

The target ships were so badly contaminated,

that officials later called them radioactive stoves,

that would've burned all living things

aboard them with invisible

and painless, but deadly, radiation.

The solution, amazingly, was to tow some

of those ships all the way to the Hunters Point shipyard.

There, they went through a

pretty messy decontamination process.

- Which, at the time, was just a process

of literally blasting the holes

and the decks with a mixture of sand.

- [Narrator] There are different stories

about what happened to the sand after that, but according to

this massive Navy document, the sandblasting wastes were

generally packed up, and pitched, into the sea.

But some irradiated grit did settle elsewhere

on the shipyard land, and that's just from the nuke tests.

There was also radioactive paint left over

from ship building, contamination from fuels and pesticides,

and radioactive materials used

in lab experiments, and that's all on top

of the asbestos that's just naturally in the soil, there.

It's a toxic place, and in 1989, the EPA added the shipyard

to the Superfund list.

Chris has been sniffing out documentation

on all of this, some of which literally comes

out of dusty boxes at the National Archives, in San Bruno.

- This is the first box of six

that I'm working my way through.

I will be here for most of the day, now, today.

(ticking)

- [Narrator] All of the issues surrounding Hunters Point,

the nuclear legacy, this historic community,

the development frenzy, they all build

up to the present day, and then collide.

Cleaning up all that waste is a massive effort,

and the government hired a firm called Tetra Tech EC

to help, but a few years ago, whistle-blowers started coming

forward with claims of botched cleanup work by Tetra Tech.

- A whistle-blower is telling our investigative unit

that he detected radiological contamination--

- [Narrator] And reporters with NBC Bay Area got

their hands on an internal Tetra Tech report

that admitted Tetra Tech workers falsified soil tests.

NBC called it an apparent effort to declare the soil free

of radiological contamination when it may not have been.

The scandal has only gotten worse from there.

- Which really turns this case on its head--

- [Narrator] This past May, two supervisors

who worked for Tetra Tech were sentenced

to prison time for falsifying soil tests.

The whistle-blowers, for their part, alleged

that the fraud reached far beyond the two workers.

- Pack your office, and get off my project.

- [Narrator] The Navy reviewed Tetra Tech's work,

and initially found that about 30%

of the sites they checked were suspect.

The EPA did a review of their own,

and their numbers were worse.

- The EPA looked at the report, and said,

actually, we think it's closer to 95% to 97%

of the work done by Tetra Tech can't be trusted.

(phone ringing)

- [Narrator] The Navy told us that, at this point,

they're planning to check all of Tetra Tech's work.

- Well, we're going back to resample 100%

of the areas that they have worked on,

and that's gonna tell us, are these areas clean?

Did we take care of the problem in 2014,

or is there a lot more locations out there,

that need additional work?

- [Narrator] We also talked

to Tetra Tech's public relations person

for the scandal, Sam Singer.

He talked us in circles, put all the blame

for the faked tests on those two supervisors,

and denied just about everything else.

- Okay, but remember, you get to ask question,

but I get to give you my answers, okay?

That's the-- - But they're the same answers

every time.

- [Narrator] Meanwhile, the people of San Francisco have

not taken kindly to any of this.

In May, the city's board of supervisors held a hearing

to discuss the fiasco.

The whistle-blowers spoke their piece,

- From the Navy, like, what the heck happened?

- [Narrator] The public came out in force.

- We need authority, autonomy, or at least equity.

- [Narrator] And Tetra Tech's lawyer stormed

out to jeers from the audience.

- [Audience Members] Bye! Bye-bye!

Bye!

A great year.

- Hanging over all of this is a tricky question.

How dangerous is the contamination at the shipyard?

We talked to the Navy's technical liaison

to the community, Kathryn Higley.

She heads up the School of Nuclear Science and Engineering

at Oregon State University.

She says that radiation risk depends

on a few things, the type of radioactive material,

where it is, and how much someone could be exposed to.

She said that the amount of radioactive material found

on the site is actually pretty low,

and the Navy is confident that the community is safe.

Of course, the scandal complicates those assurances,

and it's put the new neighborhood in jeopardy.

(brooding music)

But there's also the old neighborhood to consider,

the original Bayview-Hunters Point community,

which lost a major employer when the shipyard closed,

and is now stuck next to an EPA Superfund site

that was never fully cleaned up.

- All of a sudden, the shipyard closes,

now you're really paying attention,

and the fathers are starting to get sick,

and you don't know why.

Mothers who worked in that shipyard are starting

to get sick, and you don't know why.

- [Narrator] Marie Harrison works

with environmental advocacy group, Greenaction,

and she was a long-time resident

of the neighborhood before moving inland.

She's watched the neighborhood struggle

with a lot of health issues,

higher-than-average asthma rates,

and problems with lung cancer, and heart failure,

to name just a few.

For Marie, it feels inescapable.

- In Bayview, almost every other person has asthma,

cancer, or something going on.

- [Narrator] The community has a lot more

than the shipyard to worry about.

It's still home to a wastewater treatment plant,

nearby freeways, and lots of other heavy industrial usage.

Connecting all those hazards

to specific health problems can be tricky,

but it's not hard to make some guesses.

- We don't have to be engineers and scientists,

because the one thing I can tell you

for a fact, is that we know what ails us.

- [Narrator] So ultimately, the shipyard revelations

just are not that novel.

The discovery of fraud is vindicating,

but it's not satisfying.

- And they had to wait

until the newspapers' reporters started

to put it out there, whistle-blowers.

There was so much stuff that had piled up

before they finally had to acknowledge

that we were telling the truth.

- [Narrator] For now, everyone involved is settling in,

for more rounds of testing, investigations,

and legal battles, but it's hard

to say if it will be enough,

if the people there will ever really trust the officials

who let them down in the first place.

- I still don't trust you, and you have

not made whole the wrongs that you've done back here.

They're still lurking, like a shadow in the dark.

- There's a lot of history around nuclear weapons testing,

that we didn't get a chance to talk about

in the video, but you can check out the documents, yourself.

We linked to them in the description,

so take a look, it's incredible what's in there.

How Yu-Gi-Oh VRAINS Is Changed In English - Duration: 4:27.

interested in learning more!

Yu-Gi-Oh VRAINS, the newest series in Konami's Yu-Gi-Oh anime, was recently broadcast in

English for the first time.

The series premiered on the Canadian TV channel Teletoons on September 1st, with new episodes

appearing every Saturday and Sunday.

This version will also begin broadcasting in other Western countries, like the US and

the UK, at some point in the near future.

Like all other Yu-Gi-Oh series released in the West, this English version has had changes

made to it compared to the Japanese original.

This video will take a look at some of these differences found in the English show, so

you can compare them yourself.

The first thing to point out is that, overall, things have so far been kept pretty faithful

to the original.

However, you can find a few changes in places due to things like translation reasons and

moral concerns.

On the translation reason side, the English release of Yu-Gi-Oh VRAINS will try to keep

written text to a minimum - whether this text is in Japanese or English.

Signs like those on these buildings in episode 1, for example, have the text completely removed

overseas and you will be able to find other edits like this throughout the series.

Sometimes text will also be replaced by pictures, rather than translated into English.

You can see examples of this in this news report from episode 3, for example, or the

signs of the crowd during episode 6, which had their messages replaced with pictures

of Blue Angel.

The Japanese episodes also show the duellists' names at the start of duels.

This is replaced in the English episodes with a colour coded graphic effect.

Occasionally scenes showing text will be cut out of the English version completely, such

as during episode 6, when Playmaker receives a lot of hate from people on social media.

In the Japanese version, shots will show some of these messages that he's been receiving,

whereas overseas, Ai just describes the messages and we don't get to see any of them.

As for why changes like these are being made, it's possible that it's due to trying to save

on resources and making the English translation process easier.

It's also a possibility that the English studio feels that younger audience would prefer the

show if it wasn't too text heavy and that this would be more engaging for their overseas

market.

Whatever the case, these aren't the only edits that have been made so far to the show.

There have also been a few other changes due to moral reasons and wanting to keep the show

child friendly.

Violence, for instance, has been slightly toned down in places - such as when AI is

attacked by Cracking Dragon at the start of the first episode.

In the Japanese version, you can actually see AI being crushed.

Over in the West though, a light effect is added to obscure the visuals.

Later on in episode 1 and Cracking Dragon had another edit made to it outside of Japan,

this time when it attacks the city's civilians.

It is only in the Japanese version where you will be able to see scenes showing Cracking

Dragon shooting fire at screaming civilians and making them disappear.

There were originally multiple scenes of this nature and they were all removed in the English

version.

Alongside violence concerns, there have also been a few changes made to content that could

be seen as too suggestive in nature.

All appearances of Backup Secretary, for instance, have been edited in the English version to

reduce the size of her bust.

In the English version on the right, her bust is not only noticeably smaller and less round,

but there is also more silver colouring on the front of her outfit.

Other changes have been made to Blue Angel, who is sometimes given a longer skirt and

longer socks in the English version compared to over in Japan, although this is often done

inconsistently.

And then, perhaps the biggest example of this so far is altering the character design of

Skye, whenever she is wearing her school uniform.

In the Japanese version, Skye is always presented with a skirt and bare legs when in her uniform.

Outside of Japan though, her clothing has been changed so that she wears black leggings

instead - completely covering her skin.

Skye is one of the show's main characters and this change affects all scenes showing

her in her school uniform.

Important to keep in mind though is that so far there have only been a handful of English

episodes broadcast on TV, with many more on the way soon, and that the show is also still

continuing to have new episodes released in Japan too.

Taking this into account, it is likely that there will be more changes like these as the

English show continues.

What do you think about these changes and would you like to see more videos on the differences

between the Japanese and English versions on Yu-Gi-Oh VRAINS?

Buying vs Leasing a Commercial Property (Pros & Cons) - Duration: 3:22.

When your company decides it's time to search

for a commercial space, our clients often ask,

is it better for them to lease or buy?

While each transaction is unique,

there are some key advantages to both owning

and leasing your property that may help you decide

which is right for you.

Hi guys, my name is Jon Wheless,

a principal at AQUILA Commercial

on our tenant representation team.

And I've helped numerous clients

decide between purchasing or leasing their office space.

In this video, I'll explain the three main benefits

to either leasing or owning your office space.

(rock guitar music)

(light-hearted guitar music)

One of the biggest benefits of leasing your space

is the flexibility that it provides.

In a lease, you can negotiate expansion options,

termination options, and subletting rights.

So that as your business changes,

your space can easily as well.

The second benefit of leasing your space

is the financial flexibility that it provides.

A lease is almost always going to be less capital intensive

than purchasing a building because you're not having to

put down a significant down payment,

which can be anywhere from 10 to 40% of the purchase price.

Additionally, depending on the credit of your company,

a landlord is almost always going to provide you

tenant improvement dollars to build out your space

how you want it, whereas in a purchase,

you're gonna be paying for all of

those improvements yourself.

The third benefit of leasing is that the landlord is

managing all of the repairs and maintenance to the building.

When you own your own building, you're responsible

for any issues that may arise on the building.

While in a lease scenario, you are still paying

for those costs, through your operating expenses,

the landlord is managing that entire process,

and so that, again, you can focus on your core business.

(light-hearted guitar music)

The first benefit of owning your real estate

is the ability to build equity.

When you purchase a building, you're almost always

taking out a mortgage, just like you would your house,

and you're paying monthly payments to pay down that dept

and, in turn, building equity.

Often times, when that equity builds up enough,

you can then use that as collateral

to help grow your business if you need to.

The second benefit of owning your real estate

is a fixed mortgage.

In a lease scenario, your base rent is subject

to the market and market conditions.

If the market has increased significantly

since you last signed your lease, you're gonna be subject

to a substantial increase in rent.

We have some clients who are rolling out of long-term leases

and are seeing increases in their base rent alone,

of upwards of 40%, whereas in a mortgage,

while you still are subject to changes in

operating expenses and taxes,

the effective base rent will not change

because your mortgage is gonna be the same

for the duration of your loan term.

The third benefit of owning your real estate

are the tax advantages.

You can also receive additional tax deductions

in the form of mortgage interest payments,

and taxes, and other accounting line items.

Finally, if you're a non-profit,

owning your building can be extremely beneficial

because you're not subject to the property taxes

on that building.

Whereas, if you are leasing your space

through a third party landlord, you would be paying taxes

through the operating expense component of your rent.
