hey everybody I'm Remington welcome to Dollar Tree DIY so to create this
beautiful floating gem candle holder I grab two packs of napkin rings then I
started to lay out my design I glued four rings together first and
when doing this part make sure the glue is not visible from the sides
once the first part was dry I moved to the next section as you can see right
here I'm adding more glue as needed I placed two more rings on top and that
completes this part right now the candle holder is about seven and a half inches
tall so if you want it taller add more rings but keep in mind that if it's too
tall it will topple over without proper support maybe you can put popsicle
sticks in the backside or something like that next remove the mirror from this
set then trace it out on cardboard or foam board and cut it out I made two but
it really depends on how thick you want your base glue them together like this
and then glue the mirror on top
to decorate the sides I have some options here from Dollar Tree I have the
diamond wrap and the mirrored mosaic towns it's a perfect fit too but for my
craft stash I have this gorgeous rhinestone trim I bought from Amazon you
can check out the description box for all the materials and some helpful tips
so as you can see I cut the trim to size and eventually glued it in place next I
removed the plastic part from this pencil pouch I'm using it as faux glass
and you'll see what I'm talking about in just a few add a small circle of glue to
each ring and firmly press down I know I'm cutting here but I would wait until
the end glue the plastic down first and do all the trimming after
for this part a pair of small scissors would make this really easy but I don't
have any so I used my scissors at first and then I tried my x-acto and
that worked well but once I was done I had to trim again with the scissors
because the edges looked really rough and this is what it looks like and right
here I'm trimming those rough edges next I glued one acrylic gem in the center of
each ring just like this gorgeous right
and from this set I use the bottom part of a wineglass right side down I place
it at the top just like this and for an even fit I use
the hot glue nozzle to taper the sides after a few minutes the sides were gone
and it was a perfect fit then I just glued it in place
for the last step attached the base once you glue that oranges add your candle if
you want to see how I made this I'll show you really quick
I cut the same rhinestone trim to size and glued it to the Dollar Tree LED
candle this candle does have a wax like finish so you have to move fast because
the glue will slide off right above that I placed this beautiful decorative trim
that I bought from Amazon and again all the materials will be in the description
so I quickly moved in sections around the candle until I reached the beginning
this candle costs about 4 to 6 dollars to make which is really good because I
couldn't find any decorative candles like this in store
subscribe did you guys like that little insert let me know in the comments I'll
take it out if you don't like it
you
to create this vanity or wall mirror I started with a piece of cardboard in the
mirror from this 8 by 10 frame to create the new frame I measured one and a half
inches from the bottom but this part depends on how big you want the finished
product to be this one was about 13 and 3/4 tall by eleven and a half inches
wide next I tried to Center the mirror and create two equal sides I ended up
measuring a little under two inches for both sides and for the top I measured
the same distance as the bottom and I measured and trim some foil to cover the
frame this step is optional but I slightly crinkled the for you I really
like doing this because it adds a bit of texture and honestly you only need to
crinkle the sides but during the whole thing was easier for me
trim the cardboard to size and start gluing down the foyer I think at this
point I realized that I'm covering my dimensions so if you do this blue on the
opposite side
next I place the mirror for fittings and did some quick measurements to get
myself back on track I added glue to the center and place the mirror on top on
each side i layered the for you with adhesive Diamond wrap leaving three rows
of hang over and as you can see I didn't place any in the corners now to remove
the frayed edges I peeled back the paper and quickly passed it through a lighter
I added glue for extra support and place the diamond wrap on top I continued this
for all four sides and right here you can see how I glued the overhang to the
backside for the corners I created one row strips and glue them down I know I'm
showing you two here but it's not necessary one is enough
next using mirrored mosaic tiles create 12 3x3 diamonds just like this then lay
out your design for the sides I measured from the top and bottom to
create equal spaces and before gluing I use scrap paper as a marker
I removed the paper backing added glue and placed it down I repeated the same
steps for the middle and top one and I moved to the other sides since the front
is still flat I decided to add the hanging and hardware slightly pull back
on the unfolded paper clip add a generous amount of glue and place the
cardboard on top the next part I gave myself two options glue large gems in
the center of each diamond and place cluster gems in the corner like this or
use the acrylic gems after laying them both out this one was my favorite so I
placed one gem on each diamond and in the corners I added nine acrylic gems
I did add more glue in the gaps as needed
I just love the way this looks and to finish it off
I added larger gem and smaller ones in between
oh and this is a wax tool I bought a pack of six from Amazon I don't think
I'll ever use all six but you can always find all the materials I use in the
description box tell us which one was your favorite
wanna see more subscribe thumbs up this video share it with a friend and we'll
see you in the next one bye guys

Louis XIV - Le Roi Soleil - Duration: 2:47.
A September day not quite like any other
a Sunday, the day of the sun
saw the eagerly awaited birth of Louis XIV
after 23 years of childless marriage between Louis XIII and Anne of Austria.
He donned the king's costume only 4 and a half years later upon his father's death
then survived 3 deadly diseases before the age of 20
reinforcing the myth that he was a king blessed by the gods.
A real force of nature
with no fear of cold, heat, rain or hail
he said on his death-bed, "Why are you crying?
Did you think I was immortal?"
A lover of the open air, energetic horse-rides and the countryside
he found in his father's former hunting-lodge in Versailles
the ideal setting to build his reign far from Paris
and memories of the Fronde.
At 44, he at last settled in a palace still under construction
and which would remain under construction until his death.
Married for reasons of state, and a womanizer
Louis and his favourites, whom he lodged in luxury in his residences,
were tolerated by the church.
He had 6 legitimate children
and about fifteen natural ones.
Sensitive to the arts and an astute politician
he assembled around him the best artists, who returned the favour
by praising him
representing him as Apollo, for example, in his Sun chariot
a pagan reference, of course, but well understood by all the European elite
and that is what counted.
Louis XIV took his incarnation of French monarchy to extremes
« We owe ourselves entirely to the public » he said.
His rising from bed, his meals, shows, hunting, mass, and his return to bed
verything was done in the Court's presence, and in this way held it in his hands.
Après 72 ans de règne
After a 72-year reign, the longest in French history, the King lay dying
He declared to the Court : « I am going, but the State will always remain. ».
He died a few days later
leaving his young heir Louis XV to take over.
Carried out 10 years before his death
thanks to a plaster cast taken of his face
this realistic wax statue
is a long way from the mythical image of the king
It is a moving representation of a man marked by the ageing process.
To his heir, Louis XV, he left a debt of 600 million livres
France was thus on the edge of bankruptcy
but also more powerful than ever.
The reign of Louis XIV made such an impression on France
that his legacy is still clearly visible today 3 centuries after his death
the centralisation of power, the country's frontiers
the luxury goods industry, the development of the arts and sciences
and of course, a showcase palace of the French way of life, Versailles.

Elbphilharmonie | Gabriel Prokofiev – Komponist und Electronic Artist - Duration: 3:27.
My name is Gabriel Prokofiev and I'm a composer.
It's my first time in Hamburg and my first time in Elbphilharmonie.
I would say, most of the time I'm a classical composer
– a contemporary classical composer. When we move over to the remixes
the style changes a bit. I would call it kind of a non-classical style,
which is that it's classical but it's really non-traditional
My role becomes more like DJ-electronic artist – less composer.
It's slightly different. We have two genres tonight: The contemporary classical
and then this sort of hybrid non-classical sound.
I think as an ensemble we are definitely getting more
into this way of working. It's fun – for sure.
When I started the non-classical label, we also started these non-classical club nights.
Tonight is going to be different. I'm presenting
stuff that normally I might have played in a club. It's more like a showcase as a concert format.
I don't have a problem with that – that's great as well.
It's a chance for people to just focus on it.
Ultimately, it is about having a good connection with the audience
and the public and whether it is in a club or it's a concert – both formats are really important.
In a way it's a portrait concert. It's kind of an introduction to my music
and of a decade of my life when I went back to classical music and
committed myself to become a composer. It was really exciting for me to get back into
composing classical music but also my perspective had changed.
The four of us from the »Ensemble Resonanz« are playing a string quartet of his
and then we're going to do a live remix of that same quartet.
It demands presence. I guess that's the challenge to just always be so present.
That's the exciting part because when you put it together in different
sorts of modules and then working with different repetitions then you have to be
present all the time. That's the fun part.
Then we have the »Concerto for Turntables« from Mr Switch and then finally
we end with the »Cello Multitracks«. The first section is completely acoustic
except that there are nine cellos but eight of them aren't real cellos – it's just eight loud speakers
with one living cellist. This is quite an interesting kind of sonic effect, it's quite unusual.
And then again we play live remixes. There are some really nice remixes in there.
It gets quite beaty and quite tough sounding, so you get real contrasts sonically.

The Lesson of iQiYi Stock's Dramatic Drop Isn't What You'd Expect - Duration: 4:26.
David Gardner: My biggest loser of the last three years No. 3.
This one, I have to say, the ticker symbol is fairly ironic, because the ticker symbol is IQ.
You'd think, if I had a higher IQ, I never would have picked IQ when I did, but thereby hangs a tale.
Let's talk a little bit about iQiyi, which is sometimes called the "Netflix of China,"
probably a phrase that we used in our buy report that we put out June of this past year.
That's right, my biggest loser No. 3 I only picked about seven months ago.
The stock was at $40.51.
IQ now has touched down from $40.51 down to $16.75, and that's down 59% since June 14th just this past year.
Of all six of these companies, iQiyi, IQ, is the largest still standing.
This company still has a market cap of $12 billion.
And in many ways, it's a successful and impressive company.
It's had a poor stock market run in the last seven months.
But then again, so has all of China.
Chinese markets, I think, were down around 25% for the year of 2018.
We had a little bit of a disappointing year in the U.S., we were down single digits.
China lost a quarter of its value for its stock market in 2018.
So, it's not surprising that more volatile, higher-priced kinds of companies, with higher
multiples like iQiyi, would get especially badly hurt, and indeed it had.
So, what's the lesson that I have for you for No. 3 here?
I'm going to say this: adding to winners works more often than you think.
I said thereby hangs a tale. Let me now briefly tell the tale I'm referring to.
When I picked iQiyi in June of 2018, I'd actually picked it two months before that.
The June 2018 was a re-recommendation of iQiyi. I first picked it in April of last year at $18.
It had risen from $18 to $40 in just two months.
It's there, from that position at $40.51 down to $16.75 that we find ourselves today.
But the truth is, from the very first position, I picked it at $18, and today it's right around $17,
so it's down, but not that badly.
What I did, if you heard me right there, the stock more than doubled in just two months
and I re-recommended it again.
And while now, I look back with some regret, I'm here to say that that strategy is something
that I regularly do, and I'm not dissuaded by this example from doing it again.
In fact, let me just look at Motley Fool Stock Advisor over the last three years right now.
I'm going to give you four companies. Texas Roadhouse, Illumina, Match Group, and Okta.
All four of those companies, Texas Roadhouse, Illumina, Match Group and Okta, all four were
re-recommended within the last three years.
And each of those four respectively is up 95%, 99%, 193% -- thank you, Match Group -- and 68%.
And those are all bigger winners, for the most part, than any of the losers
that I'm telling you about today.
So, the very strategy by which iQiyi appears as my third biggest loser of the last three years,
which in fact, it has been, from that June position, that very strategy has also led
to many of my biggest winners.
I haven't even talked about Shopify, which I'll mention a little bit later this podcast.
Those are just four companies from Stock Advisor alone.
So, lesson No. 3, ironic in the face of a dog stock pick, which is what iQiyi was now
in retrospect in June of last year.
Ironically, the lesson here is adding to winner works more often than you think.
I don't think we should be dissuaded by a result like this to think we shouldn't do that.
I'm going to keep doing it, even when it sometimes hurts.

Children's Cavities | How to Keep Your Kid's Teeth Healthy - Duration: 1:53.
Why do we fix cavities in baby teeth when they're gonna fall out?
That is a very common question that I get.
The thing that I think parents don't realize is that kids tend to lose their front 8 teeth
between the ages of 6 to about 8, and then there's this 2-year span where nothing happens.
So parents often think, Oh those teeth are all gone, all baby teeth are gone.
And then when 10 hits, all of a sudden those last 12 baby teeth start coming out.
So if your child is diagnosed with a cavity when they're, say, 7 years old, they still
have baby teeth in the back that are supposed to last them until they're 11 or 12.
So how we go about treating those cavities when they're diagnosed is, one thing we can
offer is nitrous oxide, or laughing gas.
Nitrous oxide what it does is it raises that pain threshold, so kids usually are able to
tolerate just a little bit more, so that we can get everything fixed.
So that may be something you want to ask your dentist when a cavity is brought up.
Another option is just something called Tell, Show, Do.
So that's when a dentist takes the time and shows them every single thing that we're gonna
do before it's performed.
Another option that is offered by many pediatric dentists in the St. Louis area is something
called general anesthesia.
It's often not proposed unless there is a lot of dental work needed.
And sometimes we do this if we just don't think the child can psychologically handle
4 visits to the dentist.
There comes a point where it just comes to be too much and we do our best to make sure
that the dentist and child relationship remains positive for the rest of their life.
Getting a cavity filled doesn't have to be a scary experience.
The best thing you can do yourself is, take a deep breath and rely on the dentist that
you've chosen for your child to make sure that it's a comfortable experience.

How Qualcomm Works, and Why U.S. Regulators Don't Like it - Duration: 8:10.
Dylan Lewis: There's been plenty of news ahead of this earnings release, and that's we're
going to be spending a lot of our time talking about today.
Evan Niu: Yeah, they've been at trial all month with the FTC.
It's a pretty big trial, a lot of interesting information coming out.
A lot of salacious headlines.
Lewis: Before we get into that news, this is a company that we've discussed plenty on the show.
But typically when we've done it, we've talked about it because they're an Apple supplier.
Almost all those conversations have funneled up into a larger conversation about Apple.
Today, we're going to focus specifically on Qualcomm.
There's a lot going on with this company and I think that the state of this business could
really change in the next year or so depending on how some upcoming decisions go.
Before we do all that, though, why don't we do a little rundown on who they are, what they do?
I'm sure there's some people that maybe know the name and not much else, Evan.
Niu: As a quick primer, Qualcomm has been one of the big pioneers of cellular technology.
They develop all these connectivity solutions. For example, 3G was a big one for them for CDMA.
But also, 4G LTE, and all these cellular standards, they had a big part in developing the technology.
They license those patents out.
They also sell chips, predominantly modems that help these cell phones connect to cellular networks.
Just about every cell phone in the world has some level of Qualcomm technology inside,
in which case they earn a royalty on it.
So, they have a very unique business model that gives them incredible power in the cellular industry.
They have a very controversial policy called "no license, no chips" that has only strengthened their market power.
They basically would not sell you chips unless you agreed to a licensing agreement,
which typically had really onerous terms, really high royalty rates.
They have all this necessary intellectual property known as standard-essential patents,
and they also make the best modems.
So, if you're a smartphone maker, you don't have much of a choice other than to do business
with both sides of this company.
If you have standard-essential patents, you're obligated to license them out at fair,
reasonable and non-discriminatory terms, but they're not doing that.
And that's at the heart of a lot of these legal challenges.
They also charge royalties that are based on a percentage of the smartphone's total price.
They're not the only one that does that, but that's another controversial aspect of this business.
Lewis: You threw out a couple of different terms there that I think we'll probably loop
back to at different points in the show.
I just want to explain those acronyms quick that we'll be using later.
Standard-essential patents, like you said, this is IP that's related to a standard that has been set.
This is the stuff that Qualcomm holds and winds up licensing out to other companies.
The fair and reasonable and also non-discriminatory is also known as FRAND.
You might hear us refer to it that way.
Basically, if you have a technology that is adopted as the "standard for an industry,"
you need to make it available to people that participate in that industry because the standard
has to apply at a somewhat reasonable price for all the players that are participating.
Niu: Right. The idea is, you don't want one company to be able to have a lock hold on the entire industry.
If they need your intellectual property and you refuse to license it, you could bring
the entire industry to a halt.
Lewis: Without this type of dynamic, there wouldn't be much of an incentive for a standard
to be set at all, because by doing that, you'd be creating these de facto monopolies.
Niu: Right. There's also a lot of debate over how essential these patents are to these standards.
It's kind of a self-proclaiming thing.
Qualcomm says these are necessary, but there's not an actual body that agrees and validates
that these are, indeed, necessary. That's a whole other debate.
We don't have time for that. [laughs] Lewis: That's all to say, though, the reason
we're having this conversation is because Qualcomm's business approach and everything
that they provide to the smartphone industry
has become so indispensable for so many of these businesses.
This business model, though, has caused the company to come under a lot of scrutiny lately
because of the standard-essential patent FRAND dynamic in particular.
Niu: Right. Regulators all around the world have been filing complaints and lawsuits against Qualcomm
for over a decade.
I think it starts back in 2007 or somewhere around that time frame in the European Union.
In the years since, Japan, China, South Korea, now the U.S. China hit Qualcomm with
a $1 billion fine in 2015. South Korea did $850 million in 2016.
Those are the precursors to the current battles that Qualcomm is having with Apple and the
U.S. Federal Trade Commission.
Both of those complaints were filed simultaneously but separately two years ago in January 2017.
This stuff's been going on for a long time. Apple was always a major customer.
It's not every day that you hear of an Apple supplier that can bring Apple to its knees,
which is exactly what Qualcomm did for many years.
Typically, the power dynamic is the opposite.
Apple has all the power, usually, with most of its supplier relationships.
But, because it has no choice but to work with Qualcomm and pay these royalties that
it's now called "extortion-level and exorbitant," and out of desperation for royalty relief,
they've agreed to all these terms and contracts with Qualcomm, including exclusivity with
buying only modems from them for a period of time in exchange for rebates that reduced
how much they had to pay overall. It's been a big mess.
Lewis: Listeners might remember, in a past episode when we were talking about some recent
Apple woes, that they had sales of certain iPhones blocked in certain markets in Europe.
That's all related to this dispute that we're talking about here.
The scope for Qualcomm, though, could really get quite a bit larger.
What we're seeing with Apple is what we're seeing, really, with their entire distribution relationship,
and all of the people that they supply to, because it is a core business model discussion.
It's not just the relationship with one supplier.
Niu: Right. As far as the FTC trial is concerned, which is what's been playing all month,
the FTC has presented a really strong case that
Qualcomm's behavior has really undermined competition
in the cellular industry and modem markets.
The whole point is to prove that they hurt competition and hurt markets and therefore consumers.
Of course, Qualcomm has its experts testify that they did not hurt competition.
That's what's up in the air.
The case is set to conclude next week, but then, of course, the judge will probably take
some time to really put together a decision. There's a lot going on.
The FTC basically wants Qualcomm to license its technology at reasonable rates,
which could have drastic impacts on its business, as well as to drop this whole
"no license, no chips" policy that's been so controversial.
Lewis: To give a sense of how this plays out with the supplier relationships they have,
we got some testimony from Apple COO Jeff Williams in this case.
He's saying that Apple pays about $7.50 per device after rebates, which is about 5X the
$1.50 per device that the company initially thought was a fair rate for the components
that they were getting.
You can imagine that not only is that something that Apple feels, but industry-wide, if everyone's
paying that, that's something that probably gets passed along to consumers at some point.
Niu: Right. If you apply it to Apple unit volumes, if you look at how many iPhones they're selling
on annual basis and apply that $7.50, in 2011, that means they were paying somewhere about
$465 million a year to Qualcomm.
But, as Apple's business grew and iPhone units grew, that climbed to about $1.1 billion in 2015 and 2016.
It's also worth noting that Williams said in 2013, when the two companies were trying
to renegotiate a contract, Qualcomm wanted to add another $8 to $10 per device on top of that $7.50,
which would more than double its royalties.
That's an extra $1 billion a year, when Apple already felt it was overpaying.
So, you can see, Apple's not very happy about this whole situation.

Dean Spillane-Walker: The Core Story Of A Dead-End Culture - Duration: 8:35.
DEAN SPILLANE-WALKER: So what is the narrative?
That we are that is so obviously.
suicidal ecocidal
And collapsing what is it?
and the
Relatively simple answer that I've come up with is that we may have come up we may have come to America or come to the
American dream or the business as usual human operating system with some sort of family narrative if we were lucky and
maybe a cultural narrative from where we grew up with our lineages but I say that in order to work it out in
America, which represents the pinnacle of the business-as-usual paradigm that we really had no choice but to adopt the
corporate charter.
as our core narrative
And the corporate charter has but one
legal responsibility it by law that they the
folks that run that corporation
Their job is to provide profit for their shareholders.
period
And there cannot be there cannot be that's not legally possible
for them to have any sort of predominant attention on their impact on communities or on nature or
ecosystem they just cannot do it.
thats
what we've got in our
Running through our bloodstream on an individual level
As well as a collective level.
So built into that is all the stuff that Mike [Sliwa]
talks about so beautifully in his book on privilege.
And so many of the other folks if you want to go to interview.
It's all built in there. So it what helps me with that is it's not some vague thing about so we're talking about some
narrative or some score story, but
Very few people talk about so what is that
core story
It helps me a lot to have that rather simplistic.
possible interpretation
set up a cornerstone for the conversation the other cornerstone I'd like to mention and in the hand it back to you to see
if it sparks you at all is that
really the promise of
this business as usual paradigm
is that if you want to
reap any of the benefits
of the business-as-usual paradigm, which is obviously the fossil-fuel extravaganza that
that's causing it all
that
the the one ground rule at the center of it is you've got a disconnect.
from the primary sources of meaning in human life
I don't know if that conveyed to you in
The Impossible
conversation but I am really deepening that distinction in this book and workbook where
it appears to me that in order to be functional.
as a part of
the corporate charter as core narrative
I've got to literally cut off
my inner sensitivities to
my Deeper Self
to intimate relationship with other people of any kind
And then also with Earth.
some would add a fourth one of soul.
But you get the idea.
I'm asserting that that is are that the corporate charter or some variation of it is
the core narrative that we all
adopted
and the ground rule to be able to
To enjoy some of the perks.
of our world
Is to cut off.
disconnect from those core
sources of meaning in life
the last Cornerstone and then I'm going to
see what you think is a
that disconnection
leaves us
with immense blind spots
in every dimension of our life
so while we're
you know celebrating being such a geniuses and we've created such amazing things and human extravaganza.
I would assert that we are.
Not nearly as present.
As we think we are in each of those dimensions.
We basically have no relationship no formidable relationship with our deepest selves.
with each other and with the Earth
with those huge blind spots the
What?
fills in that hole
is addiction
I was just listening to this gorgeous podcast the other day from.
Gabor Mate was talking about he's a remarkable expert in the field of addiction.
It's like he was just reading straight out of the the next chapters of my book. It was just phenomenal I so.
appreciate his is take on what has addicts be addicts.
what I'm asserting is
the business-as-usual paradigm
Is an addict.
All of us immersed in it are addicts.
So let me stop and just see if that's sparks.
LBW: Yeah no I think what you address this is really poignant it's really
important to understand those levels at you.
you talk about because
There's a lot of things that come to mind. There is there is one actually I just read this be another thing. I've I was
looking at today. There's a article that I read.
It was shared by your guy I featured on the podcast previously name is David O'Hara and he's a really amazing writer
and and you just as early as he's at he teaches philosophy and Classics at Augustana University. But anyway, this is
article he shared it's it's called can we live in a world without a Sabbath rethinking the human in the anthropocene
Really quite a fascinating take on the creation story in the Bible and the role that the Sabbath has played in.
For lack of a Sabbath I guess this this.
This day has been set apart every week in order for people to rest and let the land rest as well. Let the let the beasts
of the you know that are
Providing so much for the human beings let them rest on that day as well and it's like also the seventh year every seventh
year there's like a another kind of year-long almost version of that and then they have their Jubilee which of course is
like a
Almost like a absolving all debts and things like that. So but there was this one section of this that I really liked.
And it was actually a quote from someone named deep Dipesh Chakrabarty
and it was the mansion of modern freedom stands on an ever-expanding base of fossil fuel use.
Yeah, you don't think about that. We think about this this this privileged that we have this notion that well everybody
our idea of freedom
Being a free Society is our ability to exploit the land to exploit the so-called resources and you know, you talked about
the sloppiness of our language.
What better way to kind of detaches us from
The reality of what we're doing by calling.
a tar sand operation in Canada, which requires the absolute destruction of the Boreal forest toxification of the soil in the
land in the living beings of that land in order for us to continue this addiction that you talked about in that third
Cornerstone that we call that development we called that extraction. We call that all of these things energy production,
right? There's all of these words to obscure.
