News on Youtube Dec 22 2017

Hey guys it's Kaitlyn here the Frugal Millennial so a lot of you guys have

been asking about my Smile Direct Club journey and how it's been going I did a

video a couple months ago now with a one-month update and at this point I've

now been doing Smile Direct Club for a total of about three months and I am

just about halfway through my journey of a smile direct club and my alignment

plan so I wanted to give you guys a really quick update on what's been going

on and how I've been enjoying it

so since my month 1 update which if you haven't seen you should definitely go

back and check it out a couple things have happened the first one I dropped my

aligners in the toilet so I got to learn how to properly clean and disinfect my

liners which was a unique learning experience so if you missed that video

go and check it out because it's really gross but I don't know kind of a funny

story the other thing that's happened is that I've gone to the dentist for the

first time since having my aligners I actually went to a new dentist here in

my area and they thought that the idea of Smile Direct Club was awesome and I

have more information in my video on the dentist's opinion of the Smile Direct

Club so also be sure to check that one out

but in general it's been great there have been a couple holidays and a lot of

holiday parties in the last couple months so I haven't been as strict with

wearing my aligners as I was in the beginning there are definitely a couple

nights on the weekends when I'm at holiday parties or events and I want to

eat and drink things other than just water and I have to take my liners out

and I've kept him out for a couple hours not just the 30 minutes that I usually

do during the day and I can definitely feel that my teeth are shifting in a

couple hours that I've had them out and it really hurts to put them in in fact

over Thanksgiving weekend I actually had a lot of family in town and we were

eating a lot very frequently and so there were long periods of time during

the day when I just wasn't wearing them and I'm gonna go back in and put them in

at night it was excruciating it was almost as if I had put them in again for

the first time because my teeth is shit had shifted so much so I highly

recommend not doing that and keeping your aligners

in for the close to 22 hours a day as possible

I know it's just sometimes you can't especially if you have a lot of events

going on in your life but it makes the journey a lot less painful if you

actually follow the plan that they prescribed so that's kind of my update

you know I can actually definitely see a pretty big improvement in my teeth and

when I actually originally looked at my virtual plan for my teeth shifting I

could see that at about at the halfway point which is where I am right now I

could start to visibly see a difference in my teeth so you can see in my before

and current picture is how much my teeth have shifted

I am so loving the results I think especially my top teeth they were really

focusing on shifting my top teeth in the beginning and now they're starting to

work again on my bottom teeth and then I think they're gonna go back and do my

top and bottom teeth again to make sure they're perfectly perfect but you can

see how much of a difference the last couple months have really made in terms

of my teeth shifting and becoming more aligned so you know that's pretty much

my three-month update you know I'm loving the results that I'm getting so

far I'm excited that I'm already halfway through and I'm really excited to not

have to wear them anymore and be able to eat and drink what I want when I want

instead of being on the Smile Direct Club diet so I'm looking forward to

finishing up my treatment can't wait for that day to arrive but in general it's

been a really painless process and I haven't had any problems with aligners

not fitting properly I think that's mostly because I have really been

focusing hard you followed my plan and keeping my aligners and for as long as

possible as many hours a day as possible so in that regard honestly I couldn't

recommend it more for the price of 1,500 bucks and you can see my teeth here how

they're a lot straighter than they were in my first initial video and in those

pictures I showed you and just overall great experience so like I said you know

I'm the Frugal Millennial I'm to save you guys as much money as

possible so I've included my code below for half off your initial set of molds

so be sure to click that if you are thinking about trying it getting your

molds done and seeing your plan is really the first step to going through

Watchgang Black Subscription: Szanto Desert Sands 4315 Watch Review - Duration: 10:11.

hey guys this is Andrew mywatchaddiction.com taking a closer look at

the Szanto chronograph that I received as a part of my watchgang black

subscription for December 2017 before we get started I just want a clue you into

one a little exciting piece of information. starting today and every day

until January 1st I'm going to be releasing a new watch review video at 12

p.m. now, why am I doing this because I have a buttload and watches that have

come in and I'm extremely backlogged and need to get through them too it's the

holiday season and something tells me at least one of you is going to be sitting

around the dinner table with in-laws and bored out of your freaking mind 3.

January 1st 2018 at 12 p.m. I'm going to be releasing a new video for a watch

that I've been looking for for a while now in that video I'm going to tell you

one of my subscribers exactly how you can win one of my watches it will be a

watch that I've reviewed on this channel it will be a watch that I like and not a

watch that I hate if it will be a watch that I sincerely hope that you guys like

as well so stick around subscribe if you haven't already but definitely watch

January 1st 2018 12 p.m. my watch addiction.com how can

you win my watch so since I've done my unboxing I've had a chance to take a

look around at these watches a little bit and at the Szanto watch company in

general and I've learned a few different things now one I didn't realize but the

szanto watch company was actually started in November 2013 by Barry Cohen the

founder and owner of luminix another very popular watch company now when he

started this company he was looking to start a brand

that dealt with primarily vintage style watches with a more up-to-date movement

in or designed to them so that's how he came up with the brand from what I can

tell all of the Szanto watches are based on a miyota quartz movement I have been

found specifically what movement this watch that I'm taking a look at today is

using but definitely interesting company if you look into their history a little

bit taking a closer look at the Szanto chronograph as I mentioned this is the

desert sands model 4513 which is currently available on their website for

two hundred and ninety-five dollars now their website is Santo time.com talking

a little bit about this watch you can see it is a chronograph extra benefit it

has the date indicator at the six o'clock position right in the circular

part of the six is the date normal chronograph functionality chronograph

hands the case measurement of this watch is 44 millimeters in diameter so this is

a really good case size for me personally which i think is one of the

reasons why I'm a why I'm a fan of this watch it's not too big it's not too

small it's very very comfortable to wear the case material is stainless steel

however has an IP antique bronze plating to it which gives a kind of that

gunmetal look or vintage look depending on how you

the hands and dial numbers do have thick loom on them so I'll be interesting to

see how this guy glows once I get it charged up here and get some still

pictures of it at the end of the video this desert sands 4513 is run by a

Japanese quartz movement which I believe is a Miata movement I'm not positive on

that though but I'm pretty sure it's a Miyota quartz

to ID chronograph movement the crystal on this watch is a hardened hardened

mineral crystal as I mentioned in the watch gang unboxing video

these are 22 millimeter leather straps with their signature buckle on these

watches this watch has a hundred meter water resistance so it's definitely not

a watch that I would take swimming or even play and I'm getting wet personally

taking a look around to see what these watches are going for are online it's

kind of interesting I have not found this model listed anywhere as of yet

available for sale through secondhand markets I don't know if this is a newer

model I don't know if it's an older model I really don't know the history of

this watch but I took a look at sites like Amazon. Amazon does have a large

number of szanto watches but they don't have the desert sands model 4513 which

this watches took a look also at Princetonwatches.com Princeton watches

is an authorized Szanto retailer so they're an ad they do have a few

different chronograph models but again they don't carry the desert sands

models of the Szanto tine watches finally I also took a look at eBay eBay again

there's a whole bunch of Santo time watches up for sale my guess is a lot of

them are watch gang black subscribers however I do not see this chronograph

model so I'm feeling pretty pretty happy about this this montsum scription there

are some desert sands 400 I'm sorry 4,000 series model

available on eBay right now they range anywhere from $80 up to 150 dollars so

it looks like if I was going to say overall the kind of going rate for these

watches right now is probably I'm going to say in the hundred one hundred and

twenty five dollar range typically a hundred dollars plus shipping will get

you one of these watches especially if you're buying it from a watch game

subscriber taking a look at this watch a little bit closer let's see if we can

get them in focus there for an as I mentioned in that Maxim video these

leather straps have the Szanto logo imprinted into the bands they're real

nice thick leather band I mean yeah they're they're not waxy they don't feel

cheap they've got a lot of give to them but I think they're gonna wear in over

time pretty nice the buckles on these are really nice and thick they have some

meat to them definitely you know definitely don't feel chintzy you like

they're gonna break the catches nice thick leather also looks like the same

pretty close to the same material that's used on the band and then the watch

itself again with that antiques IP bronze case back on this watch you can

see there shows the forty five ten series stainless steel Japanese quartz

100 meter water resistance case thickness on this watch I didn't find

out what the rating was actually yeah I didn't find out what the rating was on

this but it does not look that thick at all if we flip it over here you can see

the buttons for a chronograph function and then the crown to me it's a

well-designed watch it's very very comfortable definitely I wore this watch

the other day all day and didn't have any problems with this watch alright

guys so that was the desert sands 45 13 by

and no time that I received is a part of my watchgang black subscription for

December 2017 overall I would say this is a pretty pretty nice watch for the

price point I'm definitely not upset with this month's watch gang black

subscription I'm I'm actually really really liking this watch and I I have a

feeling this watch is gonna get some wrist time but with that being said guys

don't forget check us out tomorrow and I'll take a look at the other Szanto time

watch that I received as a part of my watch gang black subscription in every day

after that at 12 p.m. a new video new watch definitely check it out don't

forget New Year's Day your chance in winning one of my watches thank you guys

don't forget to Like don't forget to subscribe post up in the comments if I

The Long Dark Review (PC) - Duration: 4:07.

Hey everyone and welcome to ManaCora!

Today we're going to take a look at the first person wilderness survival game, The Long

Dark for PC.

Containing several different modes, you can choose to play through the story following

Will after his plane crash as he tries to survive, play survival mode where you select

your starting parameters by picking them individually or by selecting one of the pre-made ones or

you can play a challenge following through the objectives till you reach the end or die

trying.

For this review I followed through the story and while I'm generally not a fan of survival

games, as their entire focus is to make you feel weak and desperate as you try to make

it through....

This was really no exception.

To start with, the graphics are a little low quality.

Even being played on "Ultra" you find things have a pixelated feel to them.

This does seem to have the same effect across everything in the game, so it was probably

a graphical choice by Hinterland Studios, but it still feels a little poor.

The story held little tutorial outside of a few messages that appear telling you that

you should really melt some snow to get water or start a fire to stay warm.

It even says straight out that you should check the controls menu if you need help figuring

out how to do something!

I mean, they do seem to give you plenty of time to figure out the basics, but the lack

of any kind of direction on how to do things, even so much as what the buttons do seems

pretty lazy.

One of your first objectives is to find shelter from the storm and make a fire that lasts overnight....

Which they actually make you do.

Time is sped up a little and sitting there crafting a few things every now and then does

speed things up as it takes time, but regardless I sat there for literally, not figuratively,

LITERALLY 30 minutes just watching a fire and making sure it didn't burn out.

The story itself seems pretty slow, which is probably a good way to describe this game.

They try to make it seem all mysterious and interesting, but looking at it just feels

boring, bland and the characters seem rather emotionless.

At least the survival part of things works out pretty well, though I still can't guarantee

what all of these icons mean since you're never actually told.

Thirst and hunger seem pretty obvious, but the others....

The first one seems to be your body temperature and I guess the second is how awake you are,

but neither one is actually pointed out.

This seems to be the Long Dark's theme, tossing you and your character into the wilderness

and expecting you both to figure it out with next to no explanation.

At the end of it all, I give The Long Dark 1 "handy knife" out of 5.

As I said, I'm really not a fan of these kind of games and while they seem to have the survival

part down pretty well, letting you make your own decisions and trusting you to keep control

of how and when you eat, drink, giving you choices how you want to survive, the rest

of it falls down pretty flat.

The story feels like it was tacked on just to give you something else to do, the lack

of any real tutorial feels rather weak, especially since it took me almost an hour (half of that

spent just staring at a fire in a cave) to get out of the initial area and the graphics

across the entire thing seem generally pretty poor and just made it really hard to enjoy

this game.

At least the sound and the occasional music sequence was done pretty well, but none of

the good points are enough to save this game for me.

If you enjoy survival games and love the slow, suspenseful moments that seem to (and sometimes

do) last forever, then you could get some enjoyment out of this.

Well that's it from me, thanks for watching and be sure to like, subscribe, comment below

on what you thought of The Long Dark or what games you'd like to see me look at and tune

in next week as I'll be looking at the third game from the Humble Bundle Monthly, Warhammer

Dawn Of War 3.

Anyway, I'll see you all in game!

Review of Superman #37 | Super Sons of Tomorrow pt. 1 - Duration: 4:25.

Tim Drake's Batman of the future has returned.

And he isn't spreading a message of peace.

Hey, I'm Brian from BMA Comics Con, 2018's fasting growing comic book community.

Today we are going to review Superman #37.

Bruce Wayne is relaxing in Wayne Manor and then all of a sudden, he is attacked by Batman.

But this is Tim Drake as Batman.

They trade blows for a bit, but he is older, wiser, and from the future and eventually

bests Bruce Wayne with a gun.

He next target is Superman so over to the Fortress of Solitude he goes where he breaks

in and uses Superman's toys against him.

Which is how he eventually encloses him in a trap with Red Kryptonite.

Now that he has Batman & Superman out of the way he can proceed to his main target.

Kill Superboy.

How does he plan on attacking Superboy?

What did Superboy do to deserve this?

What about Robin?

Subscribe now if want to see the review of the exciting continuation to this story.

This is a 5-part crossover story between Superman, Super Sons, and Teen Titans.

And it's going to be written by the same people so it should flow nicely.

I like that this story connects to Detective Comics without requiring you to go back and

read it.

Seeing the connection just validates the story even more.

Plus, it was an easy way to jump in the story without having to explain what's going on

when you use an existing theme.

I wonder if they are going to make Future Tim Drake a reoccurring character like a time

traveling Red Hood, or DC's version of Cable or Bishop.

Would you like to see him again?

Or is it too early to call?

It's subtle, but technically we have a fight here Batman v Superman where Batman did win.

And its not safe to saw Clark was holding back.

Although Tim did tell him he'd spare his life.

Clark should know based on Tim's last adventure he is willing to kill.

So, would have been necessary for Superman to keep from losing at all costs.

Tim Drake isn't the smarted member of the Batfamily for nothing.

He unlike many people know that you need to take Superman out first before you go after

Jon Kent.

Or else you'll have to feel the wrath of Superman.

This was a really quick read.

I ran through this fast and wanted more.

Peter J. Tomasi is a great Superman writer so I'm happy he and Patrick Gleason are

working together on this and the rest of the cross-over issues.

They did a great job of making it clear what you need to know if you didn't read Detective

Comics or the Oz effect.

It's important not to alienate new readers and its good to old readers to make sure your

story builds on past events.

The art in this issue is really good.

More so the action is drawn very well.

We will be having different artists on the various issues during the crossover.

The death of Batman.

Actually, it's not safe for me to say Bruce was killed.

But I like the moment right before he is shot.

When he tells Tim Drake shame on him for using a gun.

The whole Batman v Batman fight was good but it got real when the gun was pulled and we

are reminded that even faced with his own death Bruce Wayne maintained the Batfamily

shouldn't use guns.

Except for Red Hood.

Like I said I like the Batman v Batman fight.

It's easy to understand why I would pick one of the panels from the fight.

And this is my favorite one.

I'm giving this comic 9 out of 10-Stars It was a fast paced, action-packed issue.

Future Tim Drake has a lot of potential and he helps add to current Tim Drakes character.

Tim Drake isn't' one of the characters in this book though.

Please let me know what your thoughts of it in the comments.

Thanks for watching.

And till next time, Brian Out!!!

JETSTAR JAPAN Flight Review: GK21 Tokyo Narita to Hong Kong (Economy class) - Duration: 11:10.

hello and welcome to this new One World Flyer video it's 6:00 in the morning at

Narita Airport terminal 2 and I'm ready to walk to terminal 3 for my flight

Jetstar Japan GK 21 to Hong Kong Narita Airport terminal 3 is relatively new

opened in April 2015, it is only used by low-cost carriers such as vanilla air

Jetstar Japan and Australia each checkin aisle is dedicated for a

destination, here for example Hong Kong the ground staff here takes baggage

rules seriously all carry-on bags are weighed and tagged the staff here are

friendly and helpful with Japanese hospitality, but they can barely speak

English, it's a brilliant idea to feel your tummy in the food court before your

flight as you will have to pay a lot for food in the air, an hour before my flight

I passed through the immigration and security checkpoint both were fast and

efficient there aren't many stores within the

terminal and despite there aren't many flights there aren't enough seats that

accommodate the passengers in the morning

looks like my flights Hong Kong is the first international departure today from

Terminal three, boarding procedure was messy and wasn't clear but apparently

window seat passengers get priority

there are no jet bridges in Terminal three

but air-stairs and outdoor gates, the purpose of this is to reduce the

facility cost for Airlines and their passengers by around 40%

my aircraft today is a five-year-old A320-200 JA05JJ

A warm welcome from the crew, after that

I settled down at my seat 7F

Jetstar offers a seat pitch of 29 inch and a seat width of 17.9 inch in economy

do you know what these gas is, if you know what the answer is or even you're

guessing it, tell me your answer in the comment down below, you may adjust the

aircon and switch on the light by reaching the overhead panel

pushback is on time

good morning ladies and gentlemen

welcome onboard jetstar gk21 to Hong Kong International Airport

but delay due to traffic

goodbye Japan and see you in two months

please subscribe to my channel now if you haven't done so, it's absolutely free

with no lock-in contract

meal service thought it very shortly after takeoff

before you start eating you need

to unlock your tray table

the tray table itself is large and adjustable but not foldable

as I paid extra for starter plus bundle

which is the type of Jetstar airfare

I get a meal along with a hot drink

there are two hot meal options and you will have to choose it online

option one is a vegetarian option

Bean curd with rice

and option two is katsu chicken curry rice

I must say option two was really good and I loved it so much

startup plus bundle is a real good deal

you get 20 kilogram check-in baggage allowance

you get to choose your own seat

you don't need to pay to change your flight

you get Qantas or Japan Airlines or Emirates frequent flyer points

and you get a complimentary meal with a hot drink

this bundle cost

only 320 Hong Kong dollars for this flight roughly about

40 USD or 50 AUD or thirty pounds

I believe we're flying over the city of Nagoya

and that's Nagoya Airport

like many low-cost carries when it comes to entertainment

there's virtually nothing other than reading materials

all reading materials are located in the seat pocket

unlike most other airlines

the seat pocket is located higher in which provides more leg space

inside the seat pocket there are safety card, airsickness bag, menu, in-flight shopping catalog and

a Jetstar Japan magazine which changes every two month

as Jetstar is originally an Australian airline founded by Qantas in 2003 it has

a strong domestic network in Australia the Jetstar group then expanded its home

base to Japan, Singapore and Vietnam

it tried to launch jets to Hong Kong but

sadly Hong Kong's Air Transport Licensing Authority

refused Jetstar Hong Kong's application for an operating license

this is the chicken katsu curry rice i pre-ordered online it will cost one

thousand yen if you purchase onboard which is not very expensive actually

but drinks are very expensive a tiny cup of hot water will cost you 200 yen

roughly about 2USD

you can also buy some Jetstar Japan souvenirs

there are three lavatories on the plane

one at the front and two at the back

there's nothing special here really but it's clean and tidy

there is a extremely rude cabin crew on board who would shout at you

but apart from that cabin crew they are all very friendly and engaging

after nearly 5 hours we are approaching Hong Kong

you can see Kai Tak Airport on the right

a relatively good flight with Jetstar Japan today

mostly friendly cabin crew

tasty food and seat with reasonable leg room

our plane was parked in the new satellite building

so we will have to take a train back to the main terminal

thanks a lot for watching I hope you enjoyed this video, if you do please give

it a like comment and share it to your buddies. I'll see you again next week in my new video

Unboxing & Review of the New AlteNew Mini Blossom Die Cutting Machine - Duration: 4:40.

hi welcome to Hedgehog Hollow I hope you're having a great Thursday there

it's nearly Christmas time and we had a fantastic delivery day

last Christmas presents came in that's my new ultra new and mini blossom die

cutting machine which is what I'm going to unbox for you today

I also got my Gemini junior that came in the mail today I put a couple of

pictures already on my Instagram stories check us out at Hedgehog Hollow

and you can see how I'm getting on with this we've got lots of new stamps and

dies and all sorts of great supplies new lawn fawn releases and you can always

follow along on our Instagram stories we post all our deliveries on there as well

so check that out at Hedgehog holo on Instagram and of course lots of videos

incoming as I play with all those new supplies I'm going to be reviewing the

Gemini jr. versus my vagabond and whilst we're unboxing today the new alter new

mini rasam I'm also going to be doing a video comparing it to the Tim Holtz

sidekick so let's take a look you can see in the Box here super pretty

it's got the old new branding on there it's white or cream with this gold

flowers on it as well you may have to hear the girls running around upstairs

or to their watching some Christmas movies upstairs so let's take it out the

box and I can show you beautiful packaging it's gonna look gorgeous

on your table out so you've got your machine here nice weight and then

there's two cutting pads in there as well so this one only cuts it doesn't

have the embossing option that you have with the Vagabond from what I've read so

far and just looking in the box there's no instructions in the box either so I'm

gonna read what it says on the back designed to work with all tainui's sold

separately and wafer thin metal dies at extra dimensions your project quickly

and easily die-cut a variety material in green cardstock at ultra new speciality

papers and they're gonna clean design perfect for any crafting desk compact

and portable stable with your rubber feet which you've got on the bottom here

and machine size is six inches by four and a half plus the handle and your

cutting plate size is three by six and a quarters and it only weighs a little

at two pounds it's really nice and lightweight I I don't have any alternate

days in my stash at the moment but what I am gonna do is I'm going grab a lawn

fund I hear and this is a piece of the Neenah Desert Storm cardstock and I'm

going to sandwich it between the two plates

now one does feel thinner than the other and it doesn't say which one should be

on the top of the bottom so I'm just gonna go with it I'm going to wind my

handle through really lightweight twine through and you can see there I've got a

really nice cut we can just weed out those little bits there so we've cover

out really nicely and as I say the Tim Holtz sidekick which actually I happen

to have on my desk already here would be your comparison so you can see its size

wise the altar new is around about the same kind of size between the two

actually maybe a little bit wider your plates are wider on the alternate versus

the sidekick but you do have that embossing option on the sidekick is

where you can put embossing folders and things through plaster sidekick has this

really large rubber base that when we click that handle in place that's not

going anywhere where is this you can just lift it up and down you saw that

when I wound it through it didn't move in any way but it's not quite as stable

as that Tim Holtz sidekick so I gives you a little bit of an overview there

but this is so pretty with all of these alternate hours and that branding on

there as well I'm sure I'll be getting a shelf behind me for all of my mini

die-cutting machines so that is my new altar new mini blossom of course lots of

videos I'll do a full thorough comparison between those two mini design

machines I also have the Spellbinders prism so I'll be getting that out and

we'll look at all three together so that will be coming up as well plus looking

at the Gemini jr. and all of those new suppliers that you've been seeing on

Instagram - thanks so much for joining me here today

WowGo 2 Review Part 2: Range Test #1 and Top Speed with 5.2 Ah Battery - Duration: 11:59.

All right, I got to change the plan.

This is the WowGo 2 electric skateboard.

I'll tell you about the specs later but

let me just tell you what's going to

happen today and over the next few days.

I'm going to perform five range tests.

The reason for doing five is so that

we can compare the first test and the last test

and see if there's a noticeable

difference in performance.

I'll start by measuring the top speed

here inside the park

and then I'll go outside

and measure on the road

because I think there might be a difference.

After that I'll come back inside

the park and ride until I hit

five kilometers.

And every five kilometers I'm going to

do another speed test

inside the park and outside the park.

And then I'll just keep on doing that

until I run out of power.

The weather right now is 12 ºC

and with the stuff that I'm wearing right now

I weight about 76 kg.

All right, let's do this.

Ok, let's go.

F*$#…

Maybe I should turn it on first.

Ok, should be on now.

Let's go.

Raargh…

Should go to fast mode.

Ok.

Now it's on and in fast mode.

Oh my god it's not stopping.

The brake didn't work.

Yeah the brake is not working.

Ok…

Oh my god.

Yeah the brake's not working, what the hell…

Ok, uhm…

All right.

It's probably because the battery's full.

Hehheh…

All right, I got to change the plan.

Yeah I'm going to ride around for 1 km first

and then I'll do the speed test.

Ok let's go back to the uh

the testing area.

Ok let's see how far I've gone.

All right, 1.14 km.

All right, let's do the speed test again.

I feel like the WowGo 1 was faster.

I got to look at the numbers later

You know what, I'm going to scrap my original plan

because this doesn't feel that fast to me

I don't know, maybe it's because

I've gotten better at this.

I don't know what the range is going to be

but uhm

I'm going to try to go at full speed

the whole time.

And then

uhh…

Yeah, let's just do that.

Well not the whole time.

I'm going to slow down for people

but, you know

full throttle most of the time.

You probably can't see that

but uhm

so the fastest I got to

was 36 kmph

which is exactly what they stated on the web site.

So, it's kind of weird

because the WowGo 1 was supposed to

top out at 36 kmph also

but I got to 44 on the WowGo 1

at this location.

So, I don't know, maybe the

either the WowGo 1 is a faster board

or maybe I just

have a weird board

I just have a weird WowGo 1.

Uh, I'm going to try on the road now.

I remember 44 felt pretty fast

on the WowGo 1.

The WowGo 2 tops out at 36.

And so it doesn't feel that fast to me.

*honk*

I mean it feels fast enough for me to handle.

Ok, let me talk about the specs now.

This one is the Wowgo 2

with the 5.2 Ah battery.

And the deck is the M deck.

The M deck is the longest one.

It's, uhm…

I forgot the exact number

I'll look it up and then put it on the screen.

But it's the longest one, it has the

longest wheelbase

so it should be the most comfortable ride.

I guess the ride quality feels like the WowGo 1

except the

WowGo 2, this deck, has

a concave shape.

So like

yeah along the

along the edges it's concave

it curves upward so

turning feels a lot better.

Ok so that's interesting.

On the road, the top speed

that I got was 27 kmph.

So there was definitely a difference.

I wonder why.

I'm heading back to the park right now.

People looking at me because

I have a helmet on and I'm

talking to myself.

Ok, let's continue.

Ok, by the way

the reason that I'm not using that path

is because it's not a

it's not a bike path.

Bikes are not allowed in this park.

That's a jogging path

and every time I ride on it

they tell me to get off.

Ooh!

That was really bumpy over there.

Ok this time the fastest speed

I got was 34 kmph.

I'm going to go back on the road again.

On asphalt it feels slower.

I'm going to check the numbers.

24 kmph.

Ok there's definitely some voltage sag happening.

All right.

I am back at the park

going to

go top speed at the park again.

The remote shows just one light

on the power indicator right now.

Sooo I should be done

pretty soon I think.

Fastest speed was about 32.5 kmph this time.

So at the park on these tiles

it's definitely faster than on the road outside.

And the speed is gradually dropping.

Let's keep going

this time on the road again.

On the WowGo 1 when it started beeping

the power went out in like

I don't know, 10, 15 minutes.

Maybe less, I don't remember but

it didn't feel very long.

This test didn't go as planned

but on the fifth test

I'm going to try to

replicate this one as much as possible.

I'm now riding closer to the

metro station because I think

it's going to run out of power soon.

Yeah it's so slow right now.

People are passing me.

Ugh, go go go…

Acceleration is really slow now.

I think I'm slowing down.

Yeah, I'm slowing down.

My uhh…

It's not responding anymore.

Out of power.

Ok, in the final 2 km

looks like the top speed that I got was

about 20 kmph.

And then from there it just kept on dropping.

It dropped to about 14 kmph

and then 10 kmph

and then finally it died off.

All right.

Interesting results.

Ok let me add up the numbers now.

2.51

plus 2.53

plus 2.52

plus 2.08

plus 2.78

plus 3.21.

Total is…

15.63.

Ok so that was 15.63 on the…

Yeah this is on the 5.2 Ah battery.

This was going at full throttle almost

the entire time.

So, uh, on the fifth test

I'm going to try to do the same exact thing

ride at the park and then ride on the road

at full throttle.

Just keep doing that until the power runs out.

And then

on the fifth test we'll see if

we'll see if the range gets better or worse.

Range test number two.

So the acceleration's pretty good.

Well that's interesting.

Chord Hugo 2 DAC review - Duration: 13:14.

Chord's DAC's have populated my stereos for over a decade and my enthusiasm for the

original Hugo was enormous.

Now there is the Hugo 2: same concept but further developed.

Since I am not a headphone listener, I have always listened to my Hugo only over loudspeakers.

I know it was initially intended as portable DAC and headphone amp, although it also has

RCA outputs and thus can easily be used as stationary DAC.

From what I heard I was not the only one that used the Hugo that way.

The recessed connectors - well intended - were inconvenient for they accept only compact

connectors and not all audiophile connectors.

And the power switch - also recessed - was hard to operate.

I couldn't care less for the unique WTA filtering made the Hugo sound far better than

other DAC's for that money at that time.

Never the less the Hugo 2 recently came to market, improving on the sound and a number

of practical matters.

And since More's law dictates ever increasing power to microprocessors, further improvement

was achieved there too.

Hight and depth remained about the same but the width increased a few millimetres and

the Hugo 2 now measures 130 x 100 x 21 mm.

On one short side two micro USB sockets are found, one for the digital audio input and

the second for power.

A standard wall wart phone charger comes with the unit.

As always with these switching mode power supplies: be careful where to plug them in.

The power input of the Hugo 2 might be well filtered but for instance your amp might not.

I have heard people disconnecting the power supply from their Hugo when they are playing

while leaving the power supply plugged into the mains.

That's the wrong way around: disconnect the power supply from the mains, the connection

to the Hugo is of no consequence.

I myself always connect these switching mode power supplies to a mains filter, not to feed

it with a cleaner power but to prevent the high switching frequency to get into the mains

that is feeding audio equipment.

Back to the Hugo 2.

I am not a big fan of the microUSB connectors but given the portability it's an acceptable compromise.

On the far ends are two threaded holes which give the impression a streamer attachment

like the Poly for the Mojo might become an option.

Not that I have any info on this.

Chord users might notice the legenda next to and above the microUSB sockets.

This is also new to the Hugo 2.

Traditionally Chord never labels their knobs and buttons.

Talking about buttons, just above the micro USB connectors and best operated from the

top are four illuminated ball shaped buttons that lets you select one of four filters,

one of six inputs, one of three headphone cross-feeds and power on/off.

The balls are identical to those of the Mojo and they work fine although you have to get

used to the color indication for each selection.

On the top also the volume control, again using colours to indicate the position.

The right side holds the headphone outputs, one on 3.5 mm jack and one on 6.3 mm jack,

a line output on two RCA's, an optical digital input on TOSlink and two digital inputs on one 3.5 jack.

This is like with the Mojo with the difference that here the tip and the ring each are digital inputs.

This is not standard and while an optical and a USB cable come with the Hugo 2,

a 75 Ω RCA to jack has to be bought separately - if you can find one.

A remote comes with the Hugo 2 and it's an elegant, bespoke remote, not one of those

general purpose ones of which a number of buttons don't do anything.

The infrared sensor is mounted on the PCM so the viewing glass - the port hole as I call it -

should not be obstructed.

I was surprised how well the infrared signal was received when the Hugo was placed in the stereo rack.

And that's a good thing since the volume control can't be done over the USB connection.

Many portable DAC's and also the Mytek Brooklyn in my setup 1 can be controlled form the music

playing software on the computer or smartphone.

The Hugo 2 can't, which is remarkable for a portable DAC-headphone/amp combi.

Don't worry I won't make it too technical.

I have written about the Rob Watts WTA filter in previous Chord reviews and I won't repeat it here in detail.

You only have to know that the more computational power is available, the higher the resolution

in time the filtering becomes.

Watts programs a programmable chip -a so called field programmable gate array - and these

become more powerful by the day.

The Xilinx Artix 7 used in the Hugo 2 now is able to work with 49,152 poles - that define

the precision in time - while the original Hugo had to do with 26,368 poles.

The average DAC chip uses far less poles, like only a few hundred.

When I look at the measurements I see an extremely linear DAC down to -120 dBR and a noise floor

that is lowered again compared to the Hugo.

That's no guarantee for a good sound but id does show how well engineered the Hugo 2 is.

Another thing to mention is that the Bluetooth radio has been made stronger.

In the Hugo one the radio was kept at a low sensitivity for it was intended to be used

on the go with the Hugo in one pocket and your phone in the other.

But if you wanted to stream in the living room, the distance would be a lot bigger and

that gave complaints.

The Hugo 2 has a more sensitive Bluetooth radio to solve this.

As said the Hugo 2 has six inputs: async USB, Coax 1, Coax 2, Optical, Bluetooth APTX and

Coax dual data mode.

The async USB is USB Audio profile 2 and thus needs a driver for use with Windows computers

- available from the Chord site.

Apple OS, Linux, iOS and Android all support Profile 2 and thus need no driver.

It accepts 768 kHz 32 bit sampling and DSD up to DSD512.

The coax SPDIF inputs each do 384 kHz but provided the right source is used, the two

SPDIF inputs can be combined to Dual Data Mode to do 768 kHz using two 384 kHz streams.

The TOSlink input is limited to 192 kHz while the Bluetooth aptX receiver only does 44.1 or 48 kHz.

Four different reconstruction filters are available,

two use 256 times oversampling, one being ruler flat up to 20 kHz and one

slightly rolling off to - 1 dB at 20 kHz.

The other two filters use 16 fold oversampling with the same flat and roll off variants.

It is a matter of taste which one you prefer and to be honest, the differences aren't that big.

Although I didn't need the battery, it would be wrong not to mention that two 2600 milli ampere/hour batteries

are mounted that provide in total 7 to 8 hours of playing time.

Using the supplied power supply these can be totally recharched in 4 hours.

If you would use a 1 amp power supply, like many smartphones use, it would take 8 hours.

The first version of the Hugo was close to a revolution.

I remember saying that you'll be hard pressed to find an equally good sounding DAC for twice the money.

The Hugo 2 takes that further, offering even more resolution in time.

With that come sound properties you will expect, like an improved stereo image, more precise

imaging and cleaner attacks.

It also brings more tonality to low notes.

And it somehow reduces the way your room modes are excited.

Really!

Perhaps the reason lies inn that room modes need an amount of energy over time to get exited.

The less time smearing the shorter pulses are and the less they feed sufficient energy

over time to excite the room.

So the Hugo 2 clearly outperforms the original Hugo sound wise.

Then what about my current reference in my setup 1, the Mytek Brooklyn?

Well, especially the combination of the SOtM-sMS-200 Ultra and the Brooklyn is extremely hard to beat.

It offers even more resolution, bringing all the related sound properties to extremely high level.

But that doesn't make the Hugo 2 a bad DAC.

As said, it outperforms the original Hugo in every respect.

One thing I need to say: it does take over a week being switched on to get the Hugo burned in.

To do this, you have to feed it with music constantly for it will switch off after seeing

no input signal for 15 minutes.

So if you go to compare, make sure you use a burned in sample for a fresh one out of

the box doesn't come close.

With the Hugo 2 Chord brings the Hugo concept to a higher level.

Of course sound wise, but also operational.

A longer WTA filtering leading to an even better sound, support of higher sampling rates,

better Bluetooth range, remote control, better placed connectors and power switch and even

a more powerful headphone amp.

And that's a good thing for rapid developments in digital audio make he competition fierce.

The Hugo 2 has kept the good things of the Hugo 1 and improved on that.

Whether you need to upgrade to the Hugo 2 is a decision only you can make.

All the extra features dit raise the price to € 2,190 in Europe or £ 1,800 pounds in the UK, both including VAT

or $ 1,995 excluding sales tax in the States.

But I think it's still the preferred choice for those that want portability and a very good sound.

The Hugo 2 is fit for the coming few years.

In the mean time I keep tracking equally interesting developments, who knows what's around the corner.

David Ayer Embraces Bad Bright Review: "This Is Going on My Fridge" - Duration: 2:05.

Just call David Ayer Mr. Brightside.

Netflix's Bright reteams the director with actor Will Smith, who worked together last

year on Suicide Squad.

Smith plays Daryl Ward, a Los Angeles police officer who teams up with Nick Jakoby (Joel

Edgerton), a rookie Orc officer, in a world of both human and mythical creatures.

The movie, out Friday, also stars Ike Barinholtz, Lucy Fry, Noomi Rapace and Édgar Ramírez.

In spite of its $90 million budget and massive marketing campaign, the future of Bright looks

dark.

The Wrap's Todd Gilchrist called Bright "astoundingly bad in every way," while Indiewire's David

Ehrlich slammed the crime movie as "profoundly awful," "dull" and "painfully derivative."

Overnight, Ayer retweeted a link to Ehrlich's critique.

"This is going on my fridge," he wrote.

"Highest compliment is a strong reaction either way.

This is a f--king epic review.

It's a big fun movie.

You can sure string words together Mr. Erlich.

I'd love to read any script you've written."

Ehrlich replied on Twitter, calling Ayer a "good man."

Though he didn't care for Bright, he promised, "I'll be waiting with fresh eyes for whatever

comes next."

Ayer replied, "I really appreciate that.

Every movie is a labor of love for me.

I've never chased the audience, and I know my work can be polarizing.

I've lived a crazy love and I guess my movies reflect that."

To be fair, not all reviews have been bad.

"Bright is the best Netflix original movie to date, and it absolutely deserves to be

seen on the big screen, though don't let that stop you from watching it home, as End of

Watch director David Ayer's welcome return to the cop-movie genre—following a disastrous

wrong turn into Suicide Squad territory, of which we will say no more—fills an intense,

grown-up movie niche that Hollywood once did so well, but has since replaced with formula-driven

product," Variety's Peter Debruge wrote.

And with its "relatively tight (by Netflix standards) 117-minute running time," Debruge

wrote, the movie "doesn't overstay its welcome, but leaves you wanting more."

DRUNK REVIEW: Sia - Everyday Is Christmas - Duration: 8:37.

We're your drunk uncles - during Christmas

and talk about music.

so..

If I could spit hot fire I'd be doing it right into this microphone

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

and of course we're gonna review a Christmas album

ho ho ho

today, we're gonna review the new album from Sia, Everyday Is Christmas - yes

Check her face on the album sleeve

What I like about this album is that all the songs are original

so no covers or reworks.

I think it's very admirable

- it's still possible

- that she came up with original songs

I'ts still possible to make original songs

In how many different ways can you approach Christmas, I mean

you''re sad during Christmas, or happy, or you sing about snow

those cows have been milked dry

But let's see what Sia has come up with

and if it can be the soundtrack to our Christmas

Let's start with the song Santa's Coming For Us!

There are the jingle bells..

We got the bells, we got a beat

I didn't expect anything else from her

She probably said: 'I'm gonna make a Christmas album..

'..but exactly like how the fans know me and my music'

not weird, not flashy..

not like Mariah Carey would do or something like that

but really only she can do it

But is this anything more than a poprecord with some jingle bells?..

no..

at this point I'm afraid it won't be more than that

I don't know

there's a fine line between popsongs and Christmas songs

there's also a fine line between 'will I buy this?' and 'not gonna buy this'

But it's not about buying it, it's about liking it right now

and does it add to the Christmas spirit?

- but will it..

Because if you're at the dinner table and they ask you what music to put on,

will you put on Michael Bublé's Christmas album or Sia?

I mean, this was just one song, we still got nine more

But can this compete with songs like All I Want For Christmas?

Is this an improvement on what there already is?

Let's find out

NEXT SONG

Puppies are forever - we can't skip this one

we can't skip this one

It sounds a bit heavier than I expected

I was expecting a little bit more of a sugarcoated soundtrack

and this is a bit.. well, it has everything to build a pretty decent song with

i don't know

I really don't know

Puppies are forever.. I am a dog lover, are you a dog lover?

Yes, me too

Dogs are rad

Dogs are forever

Is it a good Christmas song tho?

Yes

When you're windowshopping and you see a cute dog behind a window..

then you'll be like 'ahw, it's Christmas, let's get a dog'

It's a bit a cliché from those Christmas movies, y'know?

- Yes I know

It's Christmas, so let's buy it

next thing you know is that you've got a dog for eightteen years

which you don't have time for

and it only bites your in-laws

which is not the biggest problem

but in this case it's an

annoying..

an annoying song

What?!

Puppies are forever.. - NO!

NO!

The title should live up to it's meaning

and you listen to it, and it's not what it should be

I think, Puppies are forever..

I love the title, it has a nice vibe to it

But all Christmas songs have "nice vibes", so you can't judge the songs because of that

Is that so? Let's find out

There are no negative Christmas songs

Name one, Jaap, name one, now

a negative.. - right now

I cannot.. - Let's move on, Snowflake

Very pretty

all snowflakes are unique

You know that, right?

all snowflakes are unique in their shape and structure

and she says, Snowflake I want you to

*what was it*

I want to keep you, it's some sort of metaphor

I think Snowflake might be a name

A dog? - A dog I think

so we're back at the dogs

As a Christmas song, this is really good

It has the bells, it has.. stuff

Maybe it's a rabbit

Yes, exactly, probably an abandoned hamster

who ran away during Christmas

Snowflake, yes or no?

YES!

Yes, Snowflake!

Alright, Ho Ho Ho!

Yes, me too, Ho Ho Hi

It's not about prostitutes, it's about Christmas

*our camera stopped filming all of a sudden, so we're gonna continue this episode in a slightly different manner. Our sincere apologies*

It's a badass Christmas song

If you would erase the Christmas part..

it would just..

be a solid radio single.

Absolutely.

Okay, honestly

Ho Ho Ho is just..

a great song!

It's energetic, it's badass, it's moves along

a little bit Gwen Stefani-like

it gives me Gwen Stefani-vibes

yeah, Gwen Stefani-like

It's difficult to make orginal Christmas records

that's a fact, but Sia has made..

a hybrid record, a poprecord and a Christmas record,

she puts enough from her own style in to make the Christmas part..

- She's merging the popsound with Christmas, but you want something like an originality-crisis

It's a fun record, but it doesnt beat the classics

It's another full-length poprecord from Sia, with some thin layers of Christmas on it

and I think I like more songs on it than you do, at this moment

if I saw your reactions on the songs

I find first impressions very difficult

but I won't say I'd never listen to Sia again

I give this record three stars

but a very solid three stars

I'd like to give four stars

She has survived very well

- 3,5 average

Yeah, alright

So during Christmas dinner..

put it on!

don't think about it, just play it, just do it

Thanks for watching this Drunk Review!

we'll be back with a new album very soon

Stay drunk!

Merry Christmas!

BYE!

You need to click the arrow.. - ah

A red circle.. - yeah yeah yeah

It will be alright!

No, wait, let me start over

Take a seat, please

Read Remark Video Book Review Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward - Duration: 7:22.

Hi, there! I'm Beth. Thank you for joining. In today's video, we are going to talk about

Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward.

Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward. This is kind of a heavy book. It's a

really heavy book. But it is made it to a lot of best of 2017 book lists, including

the New York Times. It's on the tournament of books long list. I'm

positive it's going to make it to the shortlist. You can see it popping up all

over the place because it is that good. It is that good. When I finished the book,

I was kind of at a loss about how to review it. Um, you know, every now and then,

there will be a book that just touches me so deeply that I don't even know ...

I don't even know how to approach it, and so this is less of a book review and

more of just a book rave. It'll be me talking about how much I loved the book,

which I am wont to do every now and then. Okay, maybe a lot. So, Sing, Unburied,

Sing. Let me first go through a short synopsis of the plot. It's a family unit

living in Missouri. Leoni is the drug-addicted mother. She's addicted to

meth. Her husband Michael is in prison because he has been cooking meth. And so,

for the last few years he's been in lockup.

Well of course, Leoni can't care for her children Jojo and Mikayla, so she and

the children have been living with her parents, Mam and Pop. Mam and Pop are really

good parents. They were later in life parents. And so, their health is kind of

waning, especially Mam's. She has the cancer. And so, Jojo is really acting as

Mikayla's caretaker. Leoni wants nothing really to do with mothering. She's all

wrapped up in her own wants, her own needs, her own love for Michael, that she

just can't even see her kids.

Every now and then throughout the book

we see her yearning for more with Kayla, the daughter who's three and helpless.

And especially helpless through this book because they go, Leoni and the two

kids go on this pilgrimage with one of her friends to go get Michael and pick

him up from prison. He's been released. So, during the trip Mikayla gets sick and

Jojo, of course, being the longtime caretaker, is taking care

of the baby. I call her "baby," but she's more like three. And she only wants her

brother Jojo. Whenever Leoni tries to reach for her daughter, when she yearns

to have these moments of mothering and parenting without really putting it in

any of the work, you kind of see the sadness within her. But at the same time,

she's really an abhorrent person. She has no kind of parent skills. Through

some of JoJo's recollections, you can see how she seems to like parenting and

caretaking in THEORY, but in PRACTICE, she just doesn't have that microchip in her

head. It just, it's not really a thing for her. So through this trip to go pick up

Michael, we see more of the past. We see Leoni's broken dreams. We see Jojo's

stoic steadiness and Leone's maybe contempt that she has for her son, Jojo.

Because in his eyes and his reaction to her, she sees herself reflected. She sees

all the disappointment that she's brought both to him and to her own life.

She sees the failure that she is as a person, as a parent, as a woman, as any ... any

member of the family; as a daughter. She she sees all the failure in Jojo and has

almost a sort of resentment towards him. So beyond just base neglect, I think

she just it goes beyond that with Jojo.

In Mikayla of course it elicits all

these mothering feelings, even though those feelings usually don't really

translate to actions. So, thinking through this book, it's kind of, even though it's

a very weak family unit, there are some strong

parts to it. So you think about who the linchpin of the family might be. It could

easily be Mam, the grandmother, Leoni's mother, who is kind of this mystic person.

She knows different concoctions to make with the different herbs in the forest

to make all of the ills go hither. We think of Pop and his strong steadiness

in the family. We see a lot of that in Jojo, come to think about it. He's kind

of the strong quiet type but you would think that in Pop and Mam, that they're

really what holds the family together. And indeed they probably are, because

without them those children might have starved by now under just Leoni's care.

So they are what gave the children a stable home, meals on the table, love.

Because they sure didn't get it from Leoni. You may think that Jojo is the

linchpin of the family because he's the one who watches after Mikayla. He's a

father to Mikayla even though, I mean, he's not THE father, but he's ... he is dad.

He is her dad for all intents and purposes. He's the one that she calls for

in the middle of the night. He's the one who she wants to cling to. He puts her to

bed at night he wakes her up in the morning. He gets her dressed. He makes

sure she's fed. He makes sure she's playing and well cared for. Jojo's the

the steady one. He doesn't grandstand about it. He doesn't demand anything, but

he ... he's there for her.

But really, especially at the end, I think maybe it's

little Kayla. And I'm not going to get into it further than that because it

might give away some of the mysticism and spiritualism of the story.

And I don't really want to build it up to be more than it is, either. But you

just have to think about our relationships to each other, our

relationships to the land around us, to our colleagues and friends, and our

relationships to the present and the past and those who have gone before us.

It's just a beautiful story in Mikayla. When she sings, she sings to

those spirits, and her open innocence just brings it all in. I hope I didn't

say too much. I don't think so, because this is all kind of vague.

Just, bottom line,

read the book. It's not on all those "best of" lists for nothing. It's a

good one. So, Sing, Unburied, Sing by Jesmyn Ward. Great book. Five stars.

Highly recommend. All the kudos that I can give it, I give it. Let me know what

you think in the comments and if you have any other book recommendations of

your own. I'll be sure to catch you next time. Thank you so much for tuning in.

See ya. Bye.

Whitening Product That really works!!! Beautyderm Honest Review (night application) - Duration: 9:14.

hello Momshies I just take a shower already I used facial wash then the soap,

I will make a honest review

about what I am using,

I am using this already for 1 year!

so I think I can

sorry bout my face I scratch during my shower,

Disclaimer!! no One ask me to do this video

or gave me the product for

free to review it.

this is my own review and opinion.

And I really love this product.

I've been using a lot before and it didn't works.

So what I do is...

after taking shower I just wash

my face quickly with the soap then

I will not damp my face with towels,

I let my face wet,

then i put the toner while my

face still wet,

then tone up my face,

sorry bout the redness I scratch it huhuhu

ive been

using this for 1 year already,

before my face is dark, have pimple marks and used to have

pimples,

will insert the photos in the last part of my video, So this is my routine every

night,

It just slightly difficult to use

because you have a lot to put on, lol

This product

I think is the travel pack

there is soap toner and then there

is 4 creams

Night cream 1,

Night cream 2,

and night cream 3,

then have a daycream,

so

in night you will use night cream 1,2,3

every five minutes interval after soap and toner

then at day time soap toner and then the daycream thats the step,

so thats it guys

I put the toner already

so i will put the night cream 1

now there are lot of package

available in this product,

like trail pack, travel pack and much larger packs,

that you

can use for 1 -2 months

but I just always buy the small packs,

because for me

I want my

beauty product fresh and newly open,

I don't like using products that is opened for so

long already,

So after the toner will put the cream 1

this cream 1 is the whitening one, its like bleaching cream,

at first when I used it I

got peeling,

so dead skins will removed,

but don't worry it is just micro peeling,

See my face ??? this is one year already or more I've been

using,

so far so good

The redness of my face is because I am careless

when washing my face

I am too fast when I take showers that why,

LOL

I will put also a little bit in my neck

because

this is a little bit pricy compare to other brands,

after my night cream 1

the cream 2 is a clear type gel

this cream is for dewy soft effect of the skin,

will not wait for 5 minutes already ,

then the cream 3 is the

anti aging cream

and collagen,
