What kinds of coloring books did you like most when you were a kid?

Flowers?

Animals? Superheroes?

Well, in the past year, you must've noticed a sudden surge of coloring books lining store

shelves and appearing on online catalogues.

But these coloring books aren't for kids, they're made for adults - maybe you've

even gotten a couple for yourself.

But the important question is- why is this phenomenon happening all of a sudden, and

why now?

Our fast-paced and increasingly complicated modern society has brought with it new levels

of stress that all human beings are having a hard time dealing with, no matter their

age, status, or occupation.

Competitive environments, punitive work cultures and the constant need to keep up with the

breakneck pace of the 21st-century lifestyle are just some of the few stresses that all

of us have to face every single day.

For years now, people have looked for the ultimate panacea against all stressful factors.

Now, people are starting to think that it can be found through art.

It's true- the very act of painting and drawing is seen to have therapeutic effects

on the human body.

And this is not without reason - since the dawn of humankind, art has always been an

instrument for self-expression and symbolism, a means of group interaction, conflict resolution,

and diagnosis.

Further on, ancient cultures used art to develop stronger relationships with their deities,

believing that being in good graces with their gods would keep them away from all kinds of

harm and disease.

Eventually, art itself became a critical part of the healing process - Navaho medicine men

used sand paintings to cure disease, for example.

In Traditional Chinese painting there was no place for war, violence, or death, as it

was thought to cultivate one's character and nurture the soul.

Art was never for the sake of painting alone - the objects or scenes must be brought to

life and contain a sort of energy and beauty.

Painting and calligraphy was thought to have immense power- with the ability to rejuvenate

an artist by bringing him or her closer to a higher moral standard or the complete opposite.

Art used solely for therapy, of course, is a much more modern concept.

In 1942, British artist Adrian Hill originated the term art therapy.

While he was recovering from tuberculosis, he discovered the benefits of coloring and

painting as therapeutic processes.

At its very core, it's the active process of creation that provides pleasure and relaxation,

not the finished product itself.

According to the American Art Therapy Association, art therapy is the use of art as a

form of psychotherapy for people who are experiencing trauma or illness, seeking personal development,

or struggling to deal with the day-to-day act of living.

People develop and improve their cognitive abilities through creating art, and experiencing

the pleasure and relaxation that the process provides them.

It helps them cope with and manage the things they experience in their lives that threaten

or pressure them.

Since the mid-20th century, hospitals and mental health facilities have begun including

art therapy programs to promote emotional, developmental, and cognitive growth.

Even today, it is still an important tool for assessment, communication, and treatment

for children and adults especially after a research was done in 2005 that proved that

the subjects' anxiety levels dropped when they started coloring.

It was discovered that just like meditation, coloring also helps one to focus solely on

the task at hand while not really thinking of anything.

The tranquility that people search for is found in this process when they contain themselves

in their bubble of safety as they color.

While coloring was recognized as a form of therapy, it was found that what happens in

the brain during this process is the normalization of a very active amygdala; a part of the brain

in the limbic system that is responsible for the control fear and anxiety, and the fight-or-flight

response to a threatening stimulus.

As the amygdala is expected to react discordantly to stress, colouring and the calm approach

of doing an activity like this can dismiss that reaction or response so the brain can

have its well-deserved rest..

On the other hand, while the limbic system benefits from art therapy, the frontal lobe

does as well.

The frontal lobe is associated with reward, attention, short-term memory tasks, planning,

and motivation, or the "central executive" of the brain

Thinking of ways to combine and balance complex colour schemes to achieve an aesthetically

pleasing result is a way to enhance our focus, concentration, and organizational skills.

Nielsen bookscan estimates that some 12 million were sold in 2015 - a dramatic increase from

the 1 million sold the year before.

Perhaps it also provides a bit of nostalgia, reminding people of their childhood, and simpler

times.

And even if it just feels like they are just the latest trend or fad, they can indeed be

fun and therapeutic for people, regardless of age, and it doesn't require a lot of

money or effort to enjoy.

Learning to Drive & Determine Right-of-Way or Give Way to Other Road Users | Pass A Road Test Smart - Duration: 25:17.

[TITLE & MUSIC]

Hi there smart drivers. Rick with Smart Drive Test talking to you today about right-of-way

at different intersections for the purposes of a road test. Now just before

we get started here, be sure to hit that subscribe button... right about there. That way

you'll get access to all of the great information as I get it available to you

for those of you working towards you license or starting your career as a

truck or bus driver. Now this video is going to give you an overview of

right-of-way at different configured intersections. Mostly in residential

areas. We're not going to do complex intersections on major highways and

thoroughfares for the purposes of this video. I'll do another video on complex

intersections and right-of-way. Everything that I talk

about--stop signs, yields, and right of way from alleyways onto public highways--

all of the links are down in the description. So have a look down there if

you want more detail on a particular section. As I said, this is just an

overview of different kinds of intersections that you're going to

encounter for the purposes of your road test. As well, keep in mind what

I always say to students, "you can be right, or you can be dead right." Just

because you have the right-of-way legally, you need to think about it defensively. If

you go, are you going to risk a crash with another road user, and are you doing

something defensive, and are you keeping the examiner safe, are you keeping other

people and other road users safe? So sometimes you have to yield even though

you have the right-of-way. So keep that in mind when you're driving. And the

other thing I'll say for the purposes of your road test. If you're the least bit

in doubt on your road test, STOP, simply STOP and wait for the other road

users to move or carry on with their day and then proceed. If you're the least bit in

doubt, do not plow forward because oftentimes that results in an automatic

fail on a road test. Now one other thing that I'll mention to you is make sure

that you practice in and around the licensing center where you're going to

be taking your test. And think a little bit about urban planning. Because here in

Vernon we have two main north-south routes: 27th Ave.

and Highway 97. Those run north-south through the city and those

are the major highways. And you have to cross those if you're going east-west. As

well, Vernon is in the Okanagan Valley. So if you

see a mountain on your right and your left, you know you're heading north

or south because they're on the east and west of the city. And different cities in

the world--some cities grew up with the motor-car. Los Angeles, for example, grew

up the motor car. So it's streets are designed for motor cars. If you get to

London, England or you get to Mumbai in India, these old cities are not designed

for cars. Sydney, Australia - if you get down on "The Rocks" underneath the Harbour

Bridge there, its following the coastline - it's not on a grid. So know a little bit

about the geography and how the city follows that geography and how the roads

are planned, which roads are your main thoroughfares, which roads are going to

stop every block because there's a STOP sign as the minor streets intersect with

the major streets. Because that's going to determine your right-of-way as well.

So think a little bit about how the city is laid out. And I did watch one of the

road tests in California there and it was a fairly easy road test - big wide

streets, not many controls because the the urban planning was obviously done

around the motor car. You get into some of these older cities,

it's not going to be the same. It's going to be a little tougher for those of you

taking a road test, and about right-of-way. So what we're going to do

today is we're going to go to different intersections, we're going to give you an

overview of right-of-way and give you a little bit more information. And as I

said, the full details for each one of these intersections and right-of-way is

down in the description box. So look down there. Stick around, we'll be right

back with that information.

[INTRO & MUSIC]

Hi there smart drivers. Rick with Smart Drive Test talking to you today about

right-of-way. This video is giving you an overview of right-of-way in residential

areas. Now just before we start here, this was a request by ZijZ.

That's his user name and his YouTube channel, so be sure to check that out. And he

requested that I give an overview of right-of-way. And this is residential

areas; it's not complex intersections. It is just residential areas - so controlled and

uncontrolled intersections and for the most part you're not going to find

uncontrolled intersections in residential areas if you're turning off

a major thoroughfare onto a minor roadway then yes it's going to be

uncontrolled but you still have to get the right-of-way to other road users

that you might conflict with so for example if there's pedestrians or

bicycles you're making a right-hand turn and they're coming up you're going to

have to shoulder check and ensure that they're not crossing the roadway because

if they are you have to get the right-of-way to them most of this is

controlled intersection so stop sign yield signs dead-end streets and streets

that do not enter so you either have to turn right or left at the intersection

also we're going to talk about alleyways and we're going to talk about what to do

if you're at a stop sign facing another stop sign are facing a private road and

how you deal with that and give right-of-way to other road users for the

purposes of the road test if you come down a road like this the right-of-way

you have to give right away to other road users any road users that are on a

bicycle or pedestrians that are here because obviously this sign up here

behind me you're going to have to do a u-turn and go back the other way because

this is a sign that indicates that the road is the dead-end now this is a quiet

residential area and it's just there aren't too many people there is a

footpath that comes up over the hill here but as I said it's unlikely there's

going to be anybody else around but do your proper scanning patterns you may

have to do a three-point turn to get around on this road you would have to do

a three-point turn in some instances on a cul-de-sac and those types of things

they're not going to have this sign but on a cul-de-sac you're going to have to

do a u-turn so simply give the right-of-way to other road users

pedestrians anybody pulling out of driveways and

on scooters and bicycles and those types of things this sign here behind me

indicates that you either have to turn right or left at the intersection

there's also a yield sign at this intersection so you have to give the

right of way you have to yield to all other road users in the intersection

vehicles pedestrians bicycles and people on scooters so before you can proceed

through the intersection you have to give the right-of-way to all other road

users you may have to stop you may not so as you're proceeding towards the

intersection and see the signs which at this intersection you can see in the

image here there's a yield sign there's a do not enter sign and there's a sign

indicating that the road comes to an end and you either have to turn left or

right at the intersection to proceed so as you're coming up be prepared to stop

you don't necessarily have to stop but go slowly proceed around the

intersection whether you're going left or right and give the right-of-way to

all other road users in the intersection behind me here is an alleyway there

aren't any traffic controls at the alleyway so you have to give the

right-of-way to other road users cars people on scooters and bicycles and

children those types of things because we are in a residential area so you

don't have to stop but you do have to slow down to a point where you can scan

the intersection thoroughly and ensure that there aren't any other road users

that you have to yield to or give the right-of-way to and but for the purposes

of a road test it's unlikely that an examiner is going to take you down an

alleyway and just as a side note on these alleyways and most of the driving

manuals they say that you need to proceed at a speed not faster than 20

kilometers an hour or 12 miles an hour in these alleyways probably in most of

the states it's going to be 10 miles per hour if you are thinking that there is a

possibility you could be in an alleyway for the purposes of your road test just

make sure you look that up in your manual before going down for your road

test this intersection behind me is an uncontrolled intersection there are any

signs behind me to control how you act at the intersection so whether you're

going left you're going to go straight through because there's a bit of a jog

here at this intersection you simply need to give the right-of-way to other

road users and you may have to cover the brake because you can see there's

construction work being done behind me here and yes we are in the summertime

and if you're taking a road test now you're probably going to encounter road

construction and you need to go slowly around these temporary work

we're construction workers are working and give the right-of-way to them so

proceed slowly you may have to cover the break and I'll put a video up in the

corner over here on this side for you on covering the break and being prepared to

stop in the event that one of these construction workers accidentally steps

out in front of you or there's another road user because this is a residential

area and there could be cyclists and children and pedestrians and people off

with mobility challenges on scooters and those types of things so you need to be

prepared to give the right-of-way or yield to other road users even though it

is an uncontrolled intersection construction zones now that we're in the

summertime and you're taking a road test in the summertime you're going to have

construction zones and you have to obey the signs the temporary work signs

around construction zones and you can see the flagger here in the background

you have to obey the directions of the flaggers and other traffic control

people if you are in an emergency situation and you have a police officer

directing traffic at an intersection do not obey the traffic lights rather obey

the instructions of the traffic control person whether that's a flagger or

whether that's the police officer or what not now construction zones I was

just talking to the two flaggers here behind me and unfortunately we had a

flagger that was hit in a construction zone in Burnaby yesterday and she's

alright fortunately but know that when you're in construction zones you've got

to take a deep breath know that it's construction season and take your time

and give the right-of-way to other road users if somebody gets aggravated or

start to exhibit signs of road rage just you know let them go and have their

crash somewhere else as I said let's just take a breath take your time give

the right-of-way to other road users and help other vehicles and traffic move

through the construction zone and you'll get through the construction zone and as

well the flaggers and directional people that are there are there to help you out

and facilitate the flow of traffic through these construction areas because

what they're doing is they're making our roads better so they're nicer to drive

on and if you do not obey the directions of the flagger during your road test or

do not obey the signs unfortunately most of the time that's going to be an

automatic fail so make sure you take your time give the right-of-way and

yield to other traffic and road users in around the construction zone especially

keep an eye out for construction workers and make sure that you obey the

directions of the flaggers and you know give them a little wave because it

doesn't take any time out of your day to be nice quickly talk about roundabouts

here these are beginning to make an appearance on the driving landscape here

in North America and I'm sure those in UK Europe Australia and other places

that have prolific roundabouts they're having a bit of a chuckle at our expense

of new and veteran drivers having challenges learning how to use

roundabouts when I moved to Australia in early 2000 and they have tons and tons

of roundabouts there was a bit of a learning transition you have to scan the

roundabouts back far and you have to predict what the traffic in the

roundabout is doing and you have to be prepared to both go and stop at the same

time because as you can see on the sign here it is a yield sign or give way to

other traffic in the roundabout now if you're driving on the right you go

through the intersection in are the roundabouts in a counterclockwise

direction and you give the right-of-way to vehicles approaching from the left if

you're on the left side of the road you're going to go through the

roundabouts in a clockwise direction and you give way to traffic on that's

approaching from the right the other thing a lot of people are confused about

signaling in a roundabout they give it like a conventional intersection if

you're going left signal left if you're going to go right signal right as you're

approaching the roundabout now lots of the legislation in and around the world

says if practicable which means if you can signal your intention to lead the

intersection so for those of us are travelling on the right if you're going

straight through put the right signal on to indicate that you're leaving the

roundabout and if you're on the left put your left signal or if you're driving on

the left side of the road rather put your left signal on to indicate that

you're going to exit the roundabout that just indicates other traffic that you

are in fact leaving the roundabout so that's a bit of giving right-of-way in

yielding to other traffic in a roundabout and like I said I'll put a

complete card up here for you in the corner on roundabouts have a look at

that if you want more information about roundabouts this intersection behind me

is a t-intersection but other than the stop sign there aren't any traffic

controls at this intersection there isn't a sign telling you that it's a

t-intersection so this is why it's important to go

and practice in the area around the licensing center where you will be

taking your road tests so that you can get familiar with these intersections

and know that it's just a stop sign as well there aren't any

stop lines here on this roadway or crosswalk lines and there isn't a

sidewalk or a footpath so you have to stop where the two roads meet and then

give the right-of-way to other traffic and other road users and then proceed

after you come to a complete stop and I'll put a video up in the corner here

on stopping positions for stop signs as well I'll put a video up for coming to a

complete stop and how to do that for the purposes of your road test so how to

look at those videos as well after you have a look at this overview on giving

the right-of-way in yielding to other traffic so that's how you deal with this

intersection that has a stop sign but no crosswalk line or stop line you stop

where the two roads meet come to a complete stop give the right-of-way to

all other road users after you come to a complete stop and then proceed and make

sure you signal because you're going to have to go either right or left and the

examiner they're good about giving you plenty of notice about whether you have

to turn right or left this intersection behind me here is a little bit more

complicated than most of the intersections because there's a stop

sign on this side of the intersection on the other side of the intersection is a

private road the private road doesn't have any controls as well the east-west

thoroughfare is the through road that one of the main through roads through

this suburb so as you come up here you have to come to a complete stop before

the stop line on the roadway and you have to yield and give the right-of-way

to all other road users and if there's a vehicle across the way there and they're

turning left or right it's unlikely they're going to go straight through but

you have to give the right-of-way to them they have the right-of-way over you

because there aren't any controls at that intersection over there so you have

to wait for the intersection to clear completely before you either turn left

or right because it's unlikely that you're going to go straight through

you're either going to turn left or right here you're not going to go on to

that private roadway for the purposes of a road test so know that stop completely

before the stop line give the right-of-way to all of the road users in

the intersection and the through road is busy so

you're going to have to take your time come to a complete stop at the stop line

and you probably won't be able to see at the intersection so after you come to a

complete stop creep forward until you can see get the right-of-way to all

other road users there isn't a footpath or a sidewalk on this side of the road

on the other side there is so most of the pedestrians are going to be on the

other side of the road but just keep a lookout for that again well before you

proceed out in the intersection give the right-of-way to all other road users and

give the right-of-way to the traffic on the other side of the road because

that's a public roadway and there are any controls on that road so give the

right-of-way to all other road users scooters bicycles riders vehicles and

then proceed once the way is clear and you've given the right-of-way to all

other road users this intersection behind me is a conventional intersection

the east-west road which runs this way is the main thoroughfare and there

aren't any traffic controls on that roadway but the two roadways that

intersect with it both have stop signs in this intersection here on this side

where I'm standing you can see that there's a crosswalk line and there's a

stop line so you have to stop before the stop line and if you can't see the

intersection clearly after you come to a complete stop before the stop line then

creep forward until you can see give the right-of-way to all of the road users

pedestrians bicycles and riders and people on scooters because there is a

bicycle lane that runs along the main thoroughfare there so watch out for

cyclists as well and as well this is on a bit of a downhill so there are

cyclists they're going to be screaming down the hill probably at 40 50

kilometres an hour or 20 or 30 miles an hour if you're in the United States so

know that you need to get the right-of-way to all of the road users

and if there's a vehicle on the other side of the intersection that's turning

in the same direction that you're turning it depends on who arrives first

so if you're proceeding straight you've got the right-of-way if the other

vehicle is turning and you're proceeding straight you have the right-of-way if

you're turning and the other vehicle is proceeding straight then they have that

vehicle has the right-of-way so know that in terms of right away and yielding

to other traffic but for the most part when you come up to these intersections

at the stop sign stop at the correct position completely and then when you if

you can't see the intersection and get a clear view of the cross traffic then

you're going to creep forward treat it as a yield

give the right-of-way to all of the road users and then proceed and in North

American cities this is going to be the most common at these conventional

crossroad intersections that you're going to have a stop sign and you're

going to have a main thoroughfare as I talked about in the introduction with

urban planning and the layout of different cities and again it's

important that you practice in and around the area where you're going to be

taking your test just simply go to the map and pick ten to 15 minutes of drive

time out on a radius from that driving center and that way you can practice in

and around that area over the course of practicing and preparing for your road

test the intersection behind me is a four-way stop four-way stops can be a

bit complicated for new drivers first person to arrive or the vehicle on your

right if you arrive and another vehicle arrives approximate at the same time it

let the vehicle on your right go and know that you're going to take turn so

your line of traffic is going to go and then the cross traffic is going to go

now if two vehicles arrive at the same time the vehicle across from you knew

the street through vehicles have the right-of-way over the turning vehicles

but once that vehicle proceed straight if you're going to turn it's your turn

immediately after that turning vehicle and I'll leave a down in the description

box where I'll leave a link to the full video on four-way stops of giving more

information about four-way stops and the right-of-way and who has whose turn it

is that as the four-way stop because as I said to the uninitiated they can be a

bit complicated and if you're not sure just go out to one of the local four-way

stops sit at the corner for a few minutes and watch how the traffic

traffic moves through the intersection that'll give you a better understanding

of how to move through a four-way stop because as well when they're busy if you

go the traffic oftentimes the cross me is going to go up closer you're

proceeding straight through so as well again know that you have to come to a

complete stop before the stop line give way to other road users bicycles

bicycles pedestrians and people on scooters and

types of things so it's a conventional stop sign all the rules apply stop at

the right position and first person to arrive take your turn or if you're

unsure let the vehicle on the right goal yield signs you have to give the

right-of-way to other pedestrians road users cyclists those types of things

this one is near a high school the high school is just over here to my right so

in the morning when school lets in and the afternoon when school lets out

they're going to be fairly busy with pedestrians here at the crosswalk and

you can see the crosswalk on the roadway there so you're going to have to give

the right-of-way to pedestrians cyclists and people on scooters when you're

driving on these flip lanes otherwise if the intersection is clear you can

proceed this is the most common place you're going to find yield signs I know

that in the States they have them on some of the on ramps to freeways and

acceleration lanes that's more to assign responsibilities in the event that

there's an accident for insurance companies and those types of things most

of the time you just get on to the acceleration lane and accelerate up to

the speed of the flow of traffic and merge onto the highway I know that quite

a few people have said all other people don't help well if you signal early and

communicate your intentions that you're going to merge out onto the freeway

other people will help you so you will find some yield times there as well and

the full videos on yields I'll leave those links down in the description box

there and you can get more information on yield signs but just know that you

need to give way for other road users you don't necessarily need to stop you

could just slow down until they attain the sidewalk or the concrete island and

it once that's clear then you can proceed you don't have to come to a

complete stop for the purposes of a yield sign quick review of right-of-way

the first one is going to be a stop sign at a t-intersection and you have to stop

at the correct stopping position before the stop line before the crosswalk or

where the two roads meet and give way to the other road users on the roadway stop

at the correct position if you can't see then creep forward and treat the

intersection as a yield if you're coming out of an alleyway or a private road on

to a public road you give her a give away to all of the other road users and

when the way is clear then you can proceed you have to yield now yield

signs are not very common anymore most of the time they're on

exclaims or they're going to be on freeways in some of the states in the US

I know in California and in the state of New York they have yield signs on

acceleration lanes where you merge out on to the freeway and for the most part

I believe that that's about assigning responsibility in the event that there

is a crash for the purposes of insurance you don't really pay heed to the yield

sign simply get up to the speed of the flow of traffic and then merge on to the

freeway and I have other videos and I'll put those down in the description there

it's unlikely you're going to find a yield sign at a conventional

intersection now if you come up to an intersection and you're at a main

thoroughfare and there's a stop sign on your side and one on the other side of

the road straight through traffic has the right-of-way overturning traffic so

you have to give way one of the intersections we saw in the video there

there was a key intersection but on the other side was a private road you have

to give way to the private road and to all of the road users stop at the

correct position and perceive when the way is clear after you come to a

complete stop and again you might have to creep out so you can see the

intersection before proceeding four-way stops first person to arrive or the

vehicle on the right if you're unsure let the vehicle on the right growth now

first person to arrive the different cross traffic is going to take turns one

side is going to go and then the other side is going to go now if you come up

to the intersection and the vehicle across from you is turning in you're

proceeding straight the street turning traffic has the right-of-way over the

turning traffic and that is the way at most intersections straight through

traffic that's the right away overturning traffic now obviously that

most of these intersections you have to give the right-of-way to pedestrians

cyclists and people on scooters those are vulnerable road users and you have

to give the right-of-way to them and as I said also take note of some of the

urban planning which streets are your thoroughfares which you don't have to

stop every block and some of the residential areas you're going to have

to stop every block every couple of blocks because there's going to be a

stop sign and you're going to have to proceed across a main thoroughfare and

some of the main thoroughfares are going to be busier than other places if you do

get out onto a main highway oftentimes you're into traffic lights and those

types of things and as I said today this was just covering right-of-way and

giving way in residential areas it was for traffic lights and out on highways

and those types of things I'll do another video on complex intersections

and provide an overview of right-of-way question for my smart drivers what is

the most complicated residential intersection that you've encountered

that you have given you some difficulty and haven't understood exactly

right-of-way or what was the correct procedure for proceeding through that

intersection leave a comment down in the comment section there all of that helps

[1MTV] EP4-1 YOLO Trip or Trap ?!! - Duration: 7:41.

Do you know where Lia Kim is?

She's over there

"Practicing on the rooftop"

What is it?

"Anonymous letter to her"

You planned a new event for me

OH~ YOLO~

I recently learned what YOLO means

Like you say YOLO when there's something fun going on

To. Lia Kim. We have a movie-like day for you as a reward of your hard work

At the Jamsil Hangang River Parking Lot

It's gotta be fun!

"Who's the next one?"

Oh hi~

Mina Myoung!

Oh gosh I was really surprised

So what should I do?

Just have fun there

Just hang out all day long?

Thanks!!Yes!!

How do you feel about tomorrow?

I'm kind of scared

I mean they said it's a present

I just hope they let me rest

That's what I wish for

Uh?

OMG / What?

It's Mina! / Hey!!

Hey guys

It's been a long time since I saw you guys on 1MILLION TV

It's very early in the morning and I'm not wearing any eye makeup

It's my bare eyes!

What do you think about my makeup?

It's all just a parking lot

Oh hello!

PD/ You guys have been working really hard

That's right

I just got back from Japan yesterday

I just got back from New York two days ago

Today, we wanted to give you a magical movie-like rest day.

What do you think you two will be doing?

You said a magical (movie-like) day, so I'm thinking...

Skydiving?

That's horrific

I just want to take a nap

That's not like a movie at all

"Debate: What is 'movie-like'?"

Lying down at a park

and listening to music sounds good to me.

What's that

Is that a handsome guy!? / A cute boy????

"Two of them pay full attention"

Nice car

"YOLO The First Gift: a Drive"

Is this car for me?

I've seen this car on TV dramas

It is like a movie !!

Can we go now?

See ya~

"Let's go on a drive"

Where are we going?

Do you know the schedule for today?

driver/ Yeah most of it

You know the final destination then?

The final destination is...

Gangwondo? / Gangwondo????

I mean there's only mountains there. Will we have to hike or something?

Hiking to the top?

No, they said it's gonna be a magical day.

I don't think they meant it

Urggghhhh!

Don't you have this feeling that we will be dancing?

Like you and I dance battle?

I don't like dance battles

I'm a peace-keeper

Dumbs!!!

Don't be so competitive

What?

'Inje Sinnam'??

(Inje: now/ Sinnam: excited)

Inje!Sinnam! ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

I get it - if we head this way now, we'll be excited!

I wanna stand up!

"Fasten your seatbelt please.."

This is just perfect

This is a true vacation

Yeah but I'm still worried

about what we would be doing there

Don't think too much. Just enjoy the moment

Have some!!

"A movie-like day"

"for these busy girls, YOLO!"

Woah, where are we?

Is that bungee jumping?

"Welcome to the world of bungee jumping?"

"YOLO the third gift, extreme sports"

I'm not doing it

over my dead body!

"Where are you going...?"

I'll just go at the bottom of the tower and then go back

"We never told you anything to do..."

You're freaking me out!!

Let's go!

I'll just go near the steps

It's nothing~ It's not even that high!

We came all the way here; we can't miss out

You promised me a day like a movie!!

This is movie-like!!

Go like 'uhhhhhhhh'

You'll never see me doing that

I will make you do it!

No. seriously, I'm not doing that.

I'm not doing that.

"Welcome to the world of bungee jumping"

PD/ So because you have a fear of heights,

we will give you an opportunity out of this situation

This is going to be a moment like in a movie.

Out of all the staffs here, there is someone who has

an old memory with mina

Oh really?

An old memory?

You can skip the bungee if you guess who that is

What~~?

But this may be disadvantageous to Lia,

so we will give three guesses for Lia and two for Mina

Stand before the suspected individual and say

'Good to see you again!'

And Lia, say 'Good to see you, Mina's friend'

Mina's friend ㅋㅋㅋ

Alright

"Five candidates"

Do I go first?

Wait, mina has to bungee jump if I guess right

Right?

No way!!That's not fair!

I feel like you will jump, not me!

I'm not jumping!!!!

I'm so thrilled!

This is even more exciting than doing that bungee jump!!

I'm not doing it!

I'll go with

"Her first choice?"

Good to see you, Mina's friend

I think this is the one

Nice to meet you, for the first time (Wrong Person)

"she is an assistant camera director, it's her first time seeing Mina"

"Next, it's Mina's turn"

Could you all look me into the eyes please?

No one would look me in the eyes!!??

Could you please look at me?

Not the camera

Good to see you again

"Hmm???"

Nice to meet you, for the first time..

"AD/just wanted to tease Mina"

"with more convinction this time"

Good to see you Mina's friend!

"Well..?"

"Will Mina Jump?"

OnePlus 5 Review - Cash Grab Or True Successor? - Duration: 17:23.

Chinese manufacturer Oneplus and knowing for their flagship telephones as people

like to call them personally I don't like that phrase but what it means is

essentially is high specs low price-point but things here have changed

in 2017 with the release of the one plus five it's their most expensive mobile

yet and they have reused parts from the earlier model the 3t so we've got the

same fingerprint reader same front screen layout 1080p AMOLED panel which

isn't a bad thing this is a good panel this is a very good and accurate faster

fingerprint reader we do have a new rear housing that's slightly slimmer but it

comes at the cost of one hundred million hours of battery capacity but it feels

better in hand and they've added a new dual camera arrangement which they

promised will give us a lot better photo quality now being a darker color here

this gray almost black light color it is prone to fingerprints and smudges and

you're going to have to clean this probably once every couple of days if

you want it to look nice and pristine now things did change up here with the

camera modules of course because we've now got that 20 megapixel sensor that

has an aperture of 2.6 and then to the left of it is the 16 megapixel sensor

with a low aperture of 1.7 it does not have any optical image stabilization

which I believe is a huge mistake so one plus kit with the alert slider which is

a really good move I do like this it's so easy without even looking at your

phone to put it in to do not disturb mode vibrate only or into your general

sound profile we've got the volume rocker here which is made out of metal

it does not rattle around or anything so the build quality of that is great and

on the right side you'll find the power button well personally I would like to

power and volume buttons to be on the same side because I'm just used to that

on other MOBAs here and you'll find a cause the dual SIM tray which takes dual

nano SIM we still didn't unfortunately this yeah

get any micro SD card support so there are no ports along the top of the mobile

but on the bottom as well the action is here so the loudspeaker our type C port

microphone and 3.5 millimeter headphone jack brightness tops out at 900 lux

which is extremely bright you're not going to have any problems with sunlight

legibility and the touch accuracy of the screen really good it's very smooth very

responsive and you'll see that being an AMOLED panel that those blacks are super

dark they're almost as dark as the bezels around it so very hard to

actually see the difference between the bezel and the screen when it's on even

now one of the things that you'll notice that it colors are going to be a little

bit saturated here because of the nature of an AMOLED panel here but what we do

have of course is settings in the sitting menu so we can go through and

you can tweak the color temperatures tone down the saturation or even use the

RGB modes there to get a more accurate display personally I just leave it on

the standard setting so overall a top build from oneplus it's a flagship and

it feels like a flagship every bit it's good it's great in hand the feel of it

slightly improved of course with those rounded edges now if you're watching

this review know that you're aware of these specs it's running the latest

version of Android which is 7.1.1 and at the time the view it's oxygen OS

four point five point three now since I've had this mobile they've been

pushing out a lot of updates which is really good to see that they're on to

fixing the problems that have been coming up there's only been a mine a

couple of things and some tweaks which is great to see now speak wise it's got

the snapdragon 835 up to 80 gigabytes of RAM and 128 gigabytes of internal u FS

2.1 spec storage it's of course 4g with two nano sims no micro SD card slot as

mentioned so make sure you select the right storage option for your needs

there and it has a 3300 milliamp hour battery wireless AC GLONASS

yes you name it it's covering all of that there apart from wireless charging

it lacks now the ROM and it's performance the optimization of the ROM

is where the 1+5 excels just like the 3t it is very quick getting around going

between your apps the UI performs very smooth it'll be one of the fastest

Android phones you'll have ever used if you haven't used the 3t then you know

what I mean when you pick one up and I love the fact that it's basically just

stock Android with some tweaks so we get extra settings we can find attune things

and it's quite good just giving us an extra level of customization there now I

haven't seen any performance issues really but I did see a few stutters and

things for example in Chrome and a Twitter app when I was on earlier

firmware versions but you see here that you can do some real heavy multitasking

I've got a lot of games running in the background of things and switching

between apps going back everything just performs really well it does not bog

down as quick as some other Mobile's well now thanks to of course having six

gigabytes of RAM you can do heavy multitask in there so if I go back and

find Twitter we'll have a look at the scrolling speed there which sure there's

been some concern I did see that jello effect that others have reported on

Damir was one of the first I think to bring that up bring that to everyone's

attention there but here you can see it doesn't seem to really be happening now

that performance isn't the fastest at the moment because take into account I'm

running probably about 10 different apps here and about three or four of those

eye games so that's going to have a slight impact but now on the latest

firmware update it doesn't seem to be an issue for me I haven't noticed it and I

find the performance to the excellent on this mobile one of the best things about

it keeping on the topic of performance Wireless is excellent you can see these

speeds here that's my max I can get out of my fiber line but not only the speeds

what really impresses me just like the Xiaomi me six is the fact that we've got

that two times two antenna setup and wireless so the range

is very good I mean I can go from the other side of the studio apartment here

and get very similar speeds it's pretty one of the best mobile phones when it

comes to that the performance of the range in the speeds that you're going to

get helped of course by the snapdragon 835 now 4G speeds no problems here this

is then of course the fastest you can get out of 4G but at the moment there's

a lot of tourists here the population is increased and I'm not getting the full

speed so I can normally get out of 4G on my network but I have no doubt in my

mind that it will get maximum top speeds there are no problems with that

now the ante to school we all know that they were caught cheating it's a very

good score but benchmark societies you've seen the performance of the ROM

is excellent and real-life use it's great so that if you love those numbers

then here they are Geekbench for another top score there and the internal storage

speeds ufs 2.1 speck blistering fast for a mobile phone really good reads there

and the random for case to excellent now these are just some of the firmware

updates that came through there have been a lot of fixes they've been pushing

that quite heavily now on to battery life now it's not quite as good as my

show me me 6 with the same chip set that's the only other phone I have

reviewed so far with a Snapdragon 83 5 that way and I can get over 10 hours of

screen on time with the display configured to 200 Lux and here I got two

hours now how that works out with my daily use means I can get two full days

of battery life better use which is great this is really good for me because

I couldn't do that with my samsung galaxy s a I could not make two days of

use now during that test to get the eight hours of screen on time that was

continual use okay so that's the screen on the whole time just using it I didn't

make any phone calls that wouldn't really have much of an impact on that

now the first cycle I did this I only had the screen on for I think it was

about six hours I was a little disappointed in that but the second

battery cycle it came through now to be quite

good I mean eight hours isn't bad it's just not as good as the v6

GPF just to mention it perfectly fine really accurate gets the lock very quick

driving around in town never lost my position and the accuracy maintained

around three at the best three metres of accuracy and up to around five six when

travelling in my car but perfectly fine the performance is very decent

so the phone wins records when it comes to charge times thanks to this rather

large - charger technology they have so using their charger and only their

charger you can get charge times that are blistering fast 30 minutes I times

got me fifty nine percent battery with the mobile on and then fully charged

took only one hour and twenty eight minutes again with the mobile on which

is great that is super quick the fastest I have seen yet but it's just a little

annoying that I would actually prefer them to enable something a little bit

more standard so I don't have to always use this charger so if I leave the

charger in the studio back home I cannot take advantage of my Qualcomm quick

charge three or even they could charge for spec that of course the a35 supports

so we just go single loudspeaker down the bottom which is reasonably loud the

quality is okay but it does distort at 100% volume let's have a quick listen to

it

so as you could hear from that that it is loud and you probably picked up on a

little bit of that distortion there it tops out at almost 90 decibels which is

very good now the voice call quality excellent the other end centered fine to

me I asked him how was my quality they said really good they couldn't hear any

problems at all so that is fine now the quality out of the 3.5 millimeter

headphone jack located on the bottom here is decent it's good but it's not as

good as those phones that have real high quality decks in them but the volume

output could be slightly louder but overall not bad at all there's no static

or interference or anything like that so gaming performance it's smooth but as

you can see here it does get a little choppy sometimes which I find to be

disappointing considering this is a Snapdragon 835 and Adreno 550 GPU sure

you get playable frame rates but it's not running 60 frames per second all of

the time you see that choppiness now and then and I've also noticed that it will

heat up and get up to around 39 38 degrees on the rear which is quite warm

to the touch you can see the slowdown just there I think that's unacceptable

for a Snapdragon 83 5 so 1 plus I've been really pushing this dual cam

arrangement they have been hyping it up a lot so does it live up to the hype you

even see it on the box here you can see dual camera clearer photos now it is

better than the 3t I feel but it's really missing one key element and that

is an optical image stabilized sensor not one of them has it we've got digital

in 1080p so you need to walk around with a tripod or a three access stabilizer

and not everyone is going to have that in your pocket

now the front-facing camera is a big improvement here

so we've got a 16 megapixel sensor and it does have digital image stabilization

so the shots look really steady lots of detail captured there on my face as you

can see this is example from my unboxing and now if we have a look at 1080p from

the rear camera the stabilization is good electronic image stabilization we

don't have it in 4k and you'll notice that it's not perfect to me it looks a

little Statuary at times and it's just not as smooth as it could be and we're

going to need maybe some software updates to improve on that tweak it but

over a little bit of a disappointment there now the dual sensor arrangement

allows us to get some of those prettier portrait looking shots with the bouquet

blurred backgrounds but around the edges it's not always perfect now this is

happening on the iPhone 7 plus and other models so no one's got that perfect yet

but it can take a nice photo at another sample this time it's the two times

optical zoom sense of the 20 megapixel one but I've noticed that if you just

crop the 16 megapixel images so here's the 16 megapixel image of the same thing

crop it 200% and what do you know the quality looks about the same so really

not too much of a point I feel of having the second sensor personally I would

have gone with a 12 megapixel sensor with a higher bigger larger pixels and

not higher pixel density and optical image stabilization would have been a

much better way to go I feel but it can take a very decent photo in good light

you can see here plenty of details good dynamic range and overall yet still

photos fine but disappointing low-light as you'll see here because we don't have

that optical image stabilization the low-light shots not really that good so

to me the camera is hitting this it's disappointing because the low-light

performance isn't great and neither is the video because it lacked

optical image stabilization then on the other hand you can get some very nice

still shots in good light

okay so overall this is a great mobile phone I love the ROM on it it's just so

fast it's quick very smooth the UI and the best thing about it is you don't get

all that horrible bloatware and the applications you only get crammed and

forced upon us with other manufacturers I hope they keep with this there's one

of the main I believe selling points of this mobile phone it's just so fast it's

like stock Android but you've got that extra level of customization a few extra

settings in there now things I really do like about it the alert sliders great I

love that I can just flick that into silent mode and the fingerprint reader

just works so quick it just fall asleep or time for me I could literally do it

right now and have it work ten out of ten times which is great build quality

is good although oneplus decided to play it safe we don't have any renew features

no seconds loud speaker so no dual loudspeakers no wireless charging they

didn't decide to put maybe a different business display on there you know just

push the envelope a little they thought well we'll play it safe and then it's a

price it's gone up it's more expensive now had a few comments from people

asking me should I upgrade from the 3t definitely not save your cash in fact if

you're in the market for a more of a stock nexus or pixel light phone and

this is one to go for but the 3t I believe if you can get it to cheap

there's also other options out there like this show me me six which has

slightly better battery life but then you get the more bloated heavier me UI

which a lot of people won't like I prefer a stock like Android which we

have on this one but that phone is selling for around 318 US where this is

499 euros for me here and Europe at least now they're disappointing things

I've noticed that there must be some thermal throttling happening when you

game for extended periods you will see some slowdown that should not be

happening on the Snapdragon 835 so that is my review there thank you so

much for watching this if you have any comments please let me know down in the

comment section and they do hope to see you back in the channel very soon with

more up-and-coming reviews

- [Este] Is Grandma okay?

- [Danielle] I know, she sounded weird about Grandma.

- [Alana] I don't know.

- It's a little weird.

(squeals)

- My beautiful sisters are here!

- [All] Hi!

I'm just really tired of you guys being ashamed of me.

I am your sister.

What do you do?

- I sing.

I write.

What studio?

Oh, hi!

My girls!

To Slurp or Not to Slurp: Rules of Eating Ramen - Duration: 2:05.

Hi my name is Ivan Orkin and this is my shop.

We're going to talk about the best ways to eat a bowl of ramen.

The most important thing is to eat the ramen while its hot.

Any good ramen shop will serve you a bowl of ramen that's smoking hot and you need

to eat it right away because the noodles are overcooking.

Its a lot like pizza.

If you're a real New Yorker you know that you don't wait for the pizza to cool down,

you eat it while its hot and you risk burning your mouth.

Ramen is absolutely the same.

You need to slurp.

What it does is cool down the noodles.

Don't fight the noodles.

Take a little less than you think you wanna eat.

You want to pull them out from the pile cause otherwise you'll never be able to slurp.

easy on the toppings if you're a first timer.

So when you order your first bowl of ramen ever, just get it simple.

Taste it, see if you really like ramen.

And then you can start dumping on the toppings and going for the shop's special of the day.

Don't forget to hydrate.

I've been to ramen shops in Tokyo where afterwards my whole face is swollen with salt.

Its just the nature of the beast, so drink up.

Ramen comes with a terrible spoon.

Its called a Renge, Chinese in origin.

Its a great way to be able to dip it into the bowl.

But in Japan its totally cool to just pick up the bowl and drink from it.

And remember, there are no real rules at the end of the day.

You're letting your hair down, you want to have fun.

Get splashy, get noisy, get messy, but most importantly enjoy yourself.

Is Life Simple? Or Complicated? - Duration: 3:55.

Hello friends.

Bryan here.

In today's video I want to do three things;

First, I want to invite you to come play MONOPOLY

with me Saturday, July 15th.

I'll be hosting a MONOPOLY Tournament here in Utah.

It'll be a lot of fun.

Make some new friends.

And we'll raise some funds for 100% of Humanity.

My non-profit that's dedicated to helping

entrepreneurs in developing countries, improve

the quality of life in their communities.

Whoo!

Number one, done!

Number two; I want to share with you an idea

that I think about sometimes of life through

the lens of MONOPOLY.

And number three; I want to share with you

a rule you can use to your advantage to help

you win more MONOPOLY games.

Back to number two.

I want to share with you this idea

that back when MONOPOLY was published in the '30's,

Charles Darrow was shopping this around

Milton Bradly, and to Hasbro, and to some other

potential publishers.

It took a couple years before the game was

accepted by any publisher.

What he heard again and again as he was rejected

was that the game was too complicated.

If you can believe that.

In today's world of MMORPG's,

role playing games, you have collectible card games, all

sorts of new things that come out

all the time it seems and just the speed and pace

and complexity of life that a game like

MONOPOLY would ever have been

considered too complicated

for the general public.

We've come a ways since then, haven't we?

It makes me think about something my dad used

to talk about when he was in his 30's he had

a friend.

They had an on-going debate.

It was the kind of thing they would talk about

when they would go to lunch or when they would

work together.

And the debate was this;

is life simple or is it complicated.

My dad maintained the position

that ultimately life was simple.

There isn't anything inherently complicated about it.

And his friend would hold the other position

that no, no, no, life is complicated.

Then one day they reached an agreement,

that perhaps the complexity of life lies in reaching

its simplicity.

I think about that with MONOPOLY.

Where there are a lot of rules.

Ultimately no single rule is that complicated.

You rolls doubles, you go again.

You mortgage a property,

you pay 10% more to unmortgage it.

None of that is particularly complex.

You layer them on together,

and it can seem complicated.

That's the way life often is.

With a lot of simple things,

that kind of pile up, it can feel overwhelming.

This brings us to number three.

The advanced rule that I want to share with you.

If you come play MONOPOLY or maybe when you play

with your friends and family you can

use this at just the right time.

Be the pivotal move to help you win a game.

It's this;

in MONOPOLY, there are only 32 houses available.

If you're paying attention, and you buy those houses,

and you don't build up to hotels,

you stop at four houses on each property,

you can deliberately create a housing shortage

and prevent your opponents from being able

to buy those houses and being able to buy hotels.

If you bought a hotel you would effectively

dump those houses back into the bank and make

them available for your opponents

to buy and use against you.

The particular advance move on this is if you

have hotels, and you sell down to four

houses a piece,

then you take those houses out of the bank.

And again, they're not available for your

opponents to use against you.

To intentionally create a housing shortage.

To have greater control over the game.

That's an advanced move.

I hope to see you at the MONOPOLY Tournament

Saturday, July 15th.

Until next time, take care.
