Here we go Darren Fox and a Blake Griffin What a nice little Cade Cunningham Nice one there for Carl. Where's Carl? Yeah, Carl the pistons Jaylen Johnson to 88 for the Atlanta Hawks. It's going to canard volt. There we go first redemption of the box Elegance rookie Jersey autographs Asia red car number 127 Cam Thomas and that's gonna go to the Nets Carl To get a good summer league, I believe.

It feels a little heavy. Oh Baby, here we go Case hit got the metal bar But you can't could be gold could be silver Give me a lot of different things. How about a bronze James to start us off? That is 54 out of 99 LBJ. That's probably gonna sell Lakers going to Randy Kevin McHale to 49. Of course, we have a Laker got out of a Celtic canvas collections Randy look at that. I also got the Celtics Back to my kids TJ Warren three of ten Those are bubble MVP a couple years ago Indiana Pacers Gonna Carl Cory Kessler 87 out of 99 Impressions auto It's going to Carl. How about more of the Admiral? David Robinson 21 out of 49 That's one of the Spurs and Oliver. We got a redemption And I think I forgot I get the two base cars in the back Down to 49 for zingas and a lamella ball to 75 So Charlotte that's going to Jimmy and then Dallas going to Carl So I assume that redemption could be a pretty big one, right? It's usually the last part usually a pretty big hit You still got the metal card though. So that's the good thing. Here we go Immortal ink hollow gold Immortal ink so that must be a legend, maybe let's look this up really quick Hollow gold is number to ten or less or five. I should say ten or five out of ten or out of five We decided not to sign card number 35 and it's Vince Carter Vince Carter and let's see which Vince Carter this is because Obviously you play for a couple teams New Jersey Nets So actually since he's out of 35 That makes me believe that he's probably out of five. I assume so that might be out of five and that's going to go to Carl Obviously Brooklyn Nets now. So basically a lot of these players that are out of 99 Probably are the ones that are out of ten and anybody that's less than that out of 35 and 25 are most likely the ones out of five So that's a nice Vince Carter coming your way right there Carl. There you go So Brooklyn Nets and let's go with the metal card now guys. Good luck Let's hope for a gold Love a gold Just show it to you guys like this right as well Wow, it is a gold and it's Scotty Barnes Two of five gold 14 karat gold Scotty Barnes Wow, and that's Russell Barney from a prism Mosaic or prison mosaic pack rarer.

What is going on everybody? It's Stas here. Welcome back to another video. So in this video, we're going to be talking about a couple of stocks in ETFs that I'm personally watching and looking to trade for this upcoming week, as well as a bunch of stocks that you guys ended up calling out today in the Discord group chat. So I would actually like to thank everyone out there that did end up calling out a stock or an ETF. We're going to be talking about every single one of those that you guys did end up calling out in a couple of minutes here in this video. But before we do get into that, before we do get started with today's video, for all of you out there that do find value in these videos that do enjoy the videos here on YouTube, please, please, please feel free to go down below and hit that like button. It really does help the channel grow. And it honestly tells me as a creator, if I'm doing a good job here on YouTube providing value for all of you guys out there. So if you do find value, hit that like button. It's greatly appreciated. So let's start off today's video talking about the SPX, the S&P 500, the 500 largest US traded publicly traded companies out there guys. And we start off pretty much every single video talking about the SPX, because it gives us a gauge on the entire market. Where's the market headed? This gives us a gauge on what we can trade in terms of individual stocks out there in the stock market. And for those of you guys that have not been paying attention, well, the SPX hit a low back in December of 20, like 24th of December or the 26th of December. All the way down here, we can see it. It was right after Christmas or right before Christmas during this time period, we hit around $2346. And from there, guys, all the way up to now, pretty much, we've been uptrending, having straight green in the overall markets. The SPX was up at 1.14% from that bottoming out point. And for the past couple of days, guys, we've been greatly expecting a pullback. And we finally ended up getting that over the past couple of days. But what we talked about on Friday's video and Friday's video is that the markets do seem like they're pushing back up. They are trading in this channel that we have drawn out here on the 20-day one-hour chart. And I'm honestly anticipating more green this upcoming week based off of what the technicals are telling me right here on the SPX. We can see it traded on this trend line as a support over the past couple of weeks. We can see it held it here, held it here, it held it here. And now we had that red day, I believe, on Thursday and then on Friday, it was looking like we were continuing the red until we bounced on the bottom of this trend line and ended up closing the day on a very strong green push. This is what's telling me that we found our bottom here based on this 20-day chart. And we could be headed back up this upcoming week, which honestly is opening up a bunch of opportunities and some of the stocks that we're going to be talking about in this video. So without further ado, guys, now that we got a brief understanding of what happened this past week and honestly the past month and a half in the SPX and where we could potentially be headed this upcoming week, let's talk about some of these stocks in ETFs that I do have here in my notes. And there are a bunch, guys, because you guys ended up calling out a solid amount. Some of the ones you actually called out were ones that I was personally watching. And I added some to the list that I'm personally watching as well that you didn't call out. So let's just hop right into it, guys. We have a pretty lengthy list here. I'm going to try to go pretty quick because I don't want this video to be over 20-25 minutes. So let's see if we can do it here, guys. So some of these I did talk about in previous videos. Facebook and Apple I did talk about in the previous video, actually. And these are looking pretty good right now on a technical basis for potential short-term swing trades. So we talked about the SPX pulled back and it's looking like it's holding that support on that trend that we just saw on the 20-day one-hour chart. And of course, Facebook and Apple, being two of the largest companies ever, not ever like right now and ever, they do have a big weight on the SPX. So obviously, if the SPX is pulling back, there's a good chance Facebook and Apple pulled back as well. And that is exactly what ended up happening. We saw Facebook pull back from around 172 down to around 164. It bounced on that 50 SMA. As you know, the SPX bounced on its chart pretty much right. And now, if the SPX does continue that uptrend, if it does end up filling that gap to the top of that channel that we just saw, this could open up a huge margin on Facebook, guys. From where we are right now at about 167, Facebook, if my mouse works, there it is, Facebook has actually, we can't even see that. But my guess is Facebook has around 3-4% to 3-4% potential for profit from where it is right now. So Facebook is one that I'm watching very closely this upcoming week, especially if the markets continue to push up. And Apple is in a very similar situation, right? We saw it peeked out at about 175. We pulled back to around 168. We ended up holding a previous resistance, which is now a new support level at around 167, right? And we also ended up holding that 50 SMA on this uptrend. And we can also note that the 50 SMA is crossing above the 180 SMA here, which is a very, very bullish sign for any stock ETF index future that we are watching and looking to trade. So some signals here are showing that Apple could continue this uptrend, especially if S&P 500 and the markets do end up pushing up this week. So guys, Facebook, Apple, two large cap stocks. I'm watching very heavily this week. We do see that cross that I was talking about very nice with the pullback, the hold on top of the previous resistance, which is now a new support. The RSI level is dipping down, which is good. So a lot of good signs here for Apple and of course for Facebook. So another one I want to talk about that was called out today was Twitter, guys. Let's take a look at Twitter. I think they just ended up reporting earnings. They got tanked the up from 35 down to around $30. So this could be a potential earnings play. Check it out though. We're holding. It looks like we now we're not technically holding. We kind of look like we did dip below this previous resistance, but we do see a previous resistance here on Twitter at around $30 on this 184-hour chart here. And pretty much, guys, when we're selling off and we end up seeing that a stock and ETF and index or future is selling off heavily and approaching a previous resistance, what we like to do is see whether or not it's going to hold that level as a new support. We do see it's breaking a little bit below there, but it's still around the same area where it's worth tracking and keeping an eye on this upcoming week to see whether or not it is going to hold this level and slowly start to push back up. But to be honest, guys, if we do see Twitter break the $30 level, especially get back into the $29 level, this one could continue to push down maybe to around $28.50, even $28 flat, which in that case, I'm not really going to be watching it for a trade. But if we do hold this 30 level right, maybe push back to the $31 level, this could open up a nice fat margin of profit of around 8% to 10% to the $33 previous resistance level. So keep an eye on those levels for Twitter ticker symbol TWTR. And another heavily requested stock was Tesla ticker symbol TSLA. And Tesla needs no introduction, guys. We all know what Tesla is, the electric vehicle company. This stock has been extremely choppy, extremely volatile over the past couple of weeks, right? I believe it was here, we got the news that Tesla's cutting 7% of their workforce, the stock dropped 350 all the way to 280. And from there pretty much, guys, we've been uptrending in price. And what we can see, you know, let's just get rid of all this, you know, all these drawing sets here to make it a little bit more clearer for the viewers out there. What we can see, guys, is that we clearly got rejected by this 180SMA, but we're still holding the uptrend here of higher highs, higher lows. If we're taking a look at these candlesticks right here, and if we can see them on a closer basis, it might open up your eyes a bit more to the trend of what Tesla is on, the trend Tesla is on right now. So honestly, guys, based off this chart, 20-day one hour, we're still holding that uptrend. And the fact that we're still holding above the 180SMA here, that is a good sign that we could potentially push up. But what I want to warn you guys about here with Tesla stock is that this 50SMA is actually curling down. And if it does end up breaking below the 180SMA, that is what is known as a death cross, guys. A death cross is a sign that a stock ETF index or future is downtrending. There's more potential for downside in that particular stock, right? Just like we talked about the 50SMA crossing above the 180SMA, that's a very bullish sign. If it crosses below the 180SMA, that's a bearish sign. So be careful here, guys. This could be a head and shoulder pattern slowly starting to form potentially on Tesla, which is not a good sign to go along on a stock. But guys, if we do end up holding this level and maybe breaking back into the 310 level, that could be a good opportunity for a swing trade. But if we break this, guys, especially if we break the 50SMA below the 180SMA and we break this support that we're currently on right now on the 180SMA, there's going to be more downside in Tesla stock. So keep an eye on that. Be very in tune with that particular pattern that I just told you guys about. It's very important to keep an eye on that small time frame. But honestly, guys, if we do end up getting back into the 310s, 315s, this could be a potential trade. And especially if we break that 180SMA, we could be headed back into the 330s in terms of Tesla stock. So that's what I'm looking at in terms of Tesla stock. Another one that people talked about was EA. We talked about this one in Friday's video. And this is a stock that actually reported their earnings, dropped 17% and they ended up filling that entire gap that they dropped and some. We saw it drop 17% here, it filled the gap and we popped back up into the 99, nearly the $100 range in terms of EA stock, guys. So I personally like EA right now as a potential swing trade, but not quite yet. I want to wait and see if we're going to pull back a bit in EA stock due to that massive, massive green day that we had this past Friday. So take a look here, guys. If we do end up pulling back and let's say we hold that $93, $94 range, I think that's going to be a very good entry point for EA. Just think about it. If we end up actually, oh my God, I'm using the channel. That's why it's not, that's why it's being funky. Sorry about that, guys. But if we end up pulling back here and holding that previous resistance as a support, that's going to bring the R side down a bit and that's going to open up a very good entry in my opinion. But if we break below this resistance or new support rather, that's not going to be too good of a sign. What we want to see is a hold and then a pushback up for continuous uptrend. That would be a good entry point. So honestly, I think a couple of more days will open up a good opportunity in terms of EA stock. So let's take a look at the next one here, ACB, Cron, and Enbev. Three of the most popular stocks that we talk about on this channel and honestly in the discord the past couple of days because the marijuana stocks have been on fire. So in terms of ACB here, guys, we can see it's still holding that uptrend, which is a very good sign. Unlike Cron and CGC, I believe both of those have broken their uptrends, but ACB is still holding the 50 SMA and it honestly looks like it's still holding this trend in general. But what I want to warn you guys about is a potential, this honestly looks like it could be a potential double top here in terms of these past two trading days. We can see we popped up to around 770 here and then we didn't end up breaking above it there the next day, which would have been a great sign for the continuation of an uptrend, but we actually got rejected and now it's looking like we're going to test that 50 SMA this upcoming week again. So very simple on ACB here, guys, Aurora cannabis. If we break this 50 SMA to the downside, that's not going to be too good of a sign to trade this. But if we hold this, you know, end up pushing back into the 770s, maybe 780s, that will open up a good opportunity in terms of ACB here. So the next one I want to talk about is Cron and Cron is looking like a head and shoulders pattern right now, which is not too good of a sign to go along on a stock, right? We can see, you know, the top off at $25, it kind of looks like a deformed head and shoulders here, the one shoulders here, the next one could potentially be here, but just like ACB, you know, we had trouble breaking that level two times and now it's like we're dipping, it looks like we're dipping below the 50 SMA, which is not too good of a sign here for the continuation of an uptrend and it honestly looks like this could be the start of a head and shoulders pattern here. So on the 20 day, you know, we're still holding that 180 SMA. So keep an eye if we do break this guys. And of course, if the 50 Cross is the 180 SMA, that those are two bearish signs. If A, we break this as a support. And again, if the 50 Cross is below the 180, that's the death cross, that is going to be a bearish sign for Cron. And honestly, guys, I'm scared to trade these marijuana stocks at these levels. Anyway, I've been saying over the past couple of trading videos that I do see, you know, a potential pullback and I'm still sticking by those words in terms of these marijuana stocks. And the same thing here with NBEV, it looks like we did end up double tapping here, which is a bearish sign in terms of NBEV, but we still are holding this uptrend on the 180 SMA support here technically. So what we would want to see, let me just quickly, you know, clear this for you guys. But what we would want to see first and foremost, guys, is a break below the 180 SMA and a break below this trend line that I just drew for you guys. So this is very interesting here, guys. You know, if we do end up holding this, you know, that's going to be a very good sign for potential trade. If we do hold this bounce and push to the upside, but if we do break it, guys, that's not going to be what I want to see in terms of trading NBEV, ticker symbol NBEV. So a couple of more that you guys ended up calling out here. We have ticker symbol MAT. Let's take a look at this one. Oh, I already took a look at this one briefly before the video. Honestly, this is a stock right here that's screaming pullback in my personal opinion. So at these levels, I personally wouldn't get in. I would like to see a pullback to at least, you know, $1450, maybe $13, $1350, $14 before considering getting in. But the fact that we did end up breaking this 180SMA resistance here, that is a good sign that overall the trend is reversing to the upside. So take a look, keep a look at this one, guys, for a pullback that could open up a nice particular potential entry in terms of MAT. Another one I want to talk about that was called that was ticker symbol COTY. And I believe this one was very similar. Yeah, very similar. It's looking like it's a bit overbought right now. So a pullback might be a good opportunity for an entry. And I also like that the fact it broke that 180 50SMA resistance, the uptrend, it's looking like it's starting back up again, especially with this higher low here at about $7 from the previous. And of course, the break out of that 180SMA resistance, good sign that this could be the beginning of an uptrend. But I want to wait and see if we do end up pulling back a little bit in terms of COTY ticker symbol COTY. So another couple that you guys ended up calling out today, TWLO. That's one that I think, yep, this is the one that I was going to say, you missed the entry on this point, whoever ended up calling this one out, you know, the entry on this one would have been very nice on this 50SMA. But of course, we saw on Friday and ended up doing very well up around $5 up around 5%. You honestly missed the entry point. Me as well, you know, if I was watching this, you know, that would have been what I would say, you know, the entry point would be at around the 50SMA right here. So what I would wait for now potentially is again, a pullback just like the previous two that we talked about a pullback here and a retest on that 50SMA would be a very solid entry in my opinion in terms of TWLO. So another one that you guys called out USAT. Let's take a look at what this one is looking like right now. So this one, this one's looking pretty good, honestly guys, this one could be a potential gap fill play right here. We see the big pullback from 690 all the way down to 313. That's pretty sizable pullback there. And the fact that we're having two straight days of upwards push, this could be a good opportunity in my opinion to potentially get into this one if it does end up filling back up to maybe $4.50 and of course, under that 180SMA that would put it at $5. I think that is possible if we do start to show some pre-market push and a pre-market continuation tomorrow morning to the upside for ticker symbol USAT. So another one, WDAY. Let's take a look at that one WDAY. This, just like the other one that we talked about two stocks ago, this one's looking like the entry point was missed. The entry point seemed to have been right around 184. That would have been a good spot. But right now, honestly, I would like to see if it's going to break this resistance at 190. If it does, that could be another potential run maybe back up to 195. Let's take a look at some other timeframes to see where this stock has been. Okay, so it's very overbought right now on the longer term chart. So honestly guys, if it does end up double topping here on this 184 hour chart at around 190, that could be a potential short play. But if we do end up breaking, that could end up running a little bit more. But honestly guys, I would wait for a pullback on this stock before getting in as a potential entry or as a potential day slash swing trade. So PDD, let's take a look at what that one's looking like. PDD, this one looking very, very solid out of all the call outs. Honestly, this one might be my favorite. We pulled down from $31 all the way to $25 and it's holding that 180 SMA as a support very nicely. So the pullback, the hold on the 180 SMA, which is really just signifying the continuation of the uptrend, very good sign there. So right now, what we would want to see is whether or not it's going to start to push back into the $26 range and honestly continue that uptrend off of the support bounce that we do see right here. But keep an eye on this resistance guys, at around $26, if we do end up pushing above here, that's going to be a level that you want to keep an eye on to see if we do end up breaking out of. So that's what I'm looking at in terms of PDD. So the last one you guys ended up calling out today was QNST, QNST. Let's take a look at this one. So very similar guys, this one ended up gapping down. It's looking like it's holding that support at around $14, $15. So keep an eye if it does end up holding this support and we slowly start to uptrend and reverse back up, this could be a good potential entry point. But if we take a look on the 20 day one hour, what do we notice here guys? This is again another death cross, another bear sign that the 50 SMA is breaking below the 180 SMA, meaning there could be some more downside to come in QNST. So keep an eye on this potential support guys. I always like seeing stocks ETFs that pull back and open that margin of profit and then watching them, keeping an eye on them to see if they end up holding that support, whatever support they're at and slowly start to push back up, making money from that support level. Honestly, that's what I like to see in stocks. I personally don't chase stocks that are already at their tops. I like to see stocks that are pulling back, opening up that margin so I can hop in at a potential support point and then make money on the upside. So thank you again for everyone calling out these stocks. Just to finish off this video, I want to talk about very briefly, actually wait, I think I missed the call out. UWT, DWT, someone called those out. Let me quickly do those very quickly right now so I don't leave you out because I know someone did call that out. I don't know why I did not put that on the list. Oh my God. But I just remembered, thankfully, I just remembered right now at the end of this video. But anyway, UWT, DWT, they trade on crude oil. DWT is going up in price when crude oil is selling off, and UWT is going up in price when crude oil is going up in price. So pretty much, guys, what this crude oil chart is telling us is that we're holding that 180 SMA as a support over the past couple of days, actually, from pretty much the 6th of February to the 8th. We've been holding this support, which is a very good sign. So what I would like to tell you, whoever did shout this one out, is if we break this support, that's going to be a good sign to go along on DWT. And of course, if we break the 180 SMA support here, that could be the continuation of more selling off in crude oil, which again, opens up margin for DWT. But if we end up holding this and pushing back up, getting closer to that $53 level, $53 and $50 level in terms of crude oil, that's going to open up a nice chunk of margin on UWT. So what I would like to say to you, honestly, just keep an eye on this level. Where are we going up? Or are we breaking that pattern to the downside? That is going to tell you what to trade in terms of UWT, DWT, tomorrow. So I think I got everyone's shout out call out. If I didn't drop it down below in the comment section, and I'll get to it in the next video. But to leave you guys with a note here, just keep an eye, I can't stress it enough, keep an eye on those levels for the SPX that I was talking about. If we do end up pushing up, two more ETFs that could be good plays are going to be TQQQ. This one goes up when the markets go up and QQQQQ. So keep an eye or three Qs, not QQQQ. Is it three or four Qs? I forget now. Is it this one? Okay, no, it's definitely three Qs. So three Qs and T3Qs, keep an eye on those two, these will go up if the markets go up. So I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Drop a comment down below, leave a like, subscribe to the channel if you're new. let me know what you are personally trading this upcoming week.

Thanks again for watching. Peace out.


Hi, I'm Brigid Karaher. I'm co-director of the Simon's Electron Microscopy Center, the New York Structural Biology Center and a whole center of centers. And I'm also currently the founding technical director of the Chan Zuckerberg Imaging Institute. So what are the benefits of using CryoM technology? There are so many, I think, at this stage because CryoM is many different pipelines at the moment. There's a single particle cryoM pipeline and the benefit there is mostly that you can get these high resolution structure of beautiful proteins and protein complexes, things that are intractable to other methods like X-ray crystallography and NMR. But then there's another whole pipeline we call CryoElectron Tomography and really what that lets us do is look inside cells and see what proteins and protein complexes are doing inside cells, which may be different than what they look like in vitro. So there are many, many benefits of CryoElectron Microscopy and CryoElectron Tomography, basically looking at proteins, protein complexes in situ at very high resolution. There's many bottlenecks in the pipeline. I think the single particle CryoElectron Microscopy, the main bottleneck right now is in making the specimen in the form that we needed in the electron microscope, which has to be in a very thin form and as a result the protein sometimes interacts with the air water interface and that causes us all kinds of problems. For the CryoElectron Tomography pipeline there are many bottlenecks all the way along, making the specimen in the first place, getting enough contrast in the very crowded environment of the cell to actually find your structural interest, the particular molecule that you're looking for and then doing that processing to take months and months and months are very hard work with a lot of compute power and every single step along that way is difficult and has challenges and also there's a lot of opportunities for new technology development, which I'm sure will be coming. So making this technology more accessible to the entire sign to the community requires I think a lot of automation, a lot of streamlining and this would be a lot less cost because it's a very, very expensive technology both to acquire the hardware in the first place, to look after that hardware, to maintain it and then to run it, you need experts to run it. So a lot of automation and streamlining and cost reduction could help. The other thing that helps it somewhat I think is to have very large centers. We run a large center, a couple of large centers in New York City and there are many others around the world, Technopole being one of them and you know making those sort of centralized facilities where you where there's an economy of scale is very important I think to democratizing these methods. So I think Technopole is doing everything right. I'm very, very impressed by what you've done here. I think you have a beautiful array of equipment and it's very complete. That was quite impressive how complete the equipment is and you're doing training, bringing people from the outside, having beautifully well supported platforms. All of that is exactly spot on right and I think you've done a beautiful job in going in exactly the right direction.


This patient is a 39-year-old man who has worn his first denture for seven years. It was made to function with lower natural teeth and a lower partial denture. As a result of this prolonged usage of the full denture in occlusion with a lower dentition, abnormal stresses have developed, resulting in excessive resorption of the alveolus anteriorly in the maxillary ridge. The soft tissues have become hypertrophied and flabby as a result of the ill-fitting denture and chronic irritation. He has not worn his denture for a week at this time and the inflammation which existed when he was first seen has subsided to a considerable degree. Although a few prosthodontists prefer to save this tissue and take impressions over it, the majority favor a less mobile foundation for the denture. A much firmer and more resilient denture-bearing surface can be provided by surgical methods in many of these cases. In this case, enough ridge remains so that ridge extension is not necessary. Simple excision of the hypertrophied flabby mass will suffice to provide a firm ridge. An elliptical excision of excessive tissue is arbitrarily carried out. This excess tissue is removed in one section. It is detached from the alveolus with a small, sharp number 2 curret. Closure of the wound is by interrupted suture. Four weeks of healing without wearing a denture results in a well-contoured firm ridge devoid of mobile flabby tissue. Ridge height or sulcus depth is satisfactory. This ridge is now almost ideal as a foundation for bearing a denture.


So the exercise we're doing today is mainly water production, so we come out here to see how much water we can produce in a 48 hour period. The gear we have out, we have the twips, which is also known as the tactical water purification system. And we have the smaller version of that, which is known as the lips, which is the light water purification system.  The lips is more lightweight and it's maneuverable and you can actually load it into a high back humvee. With the twips, you're looking at about 600 gallons per hour. And with the L-whips, you're looking at about 400 gallons per hour. You're going to have your raw water pump. The raw water pump solely pulls your raw water from its source. And as it pulls that water from the lake, it stores it into that raw water bag. You have another pump that pulls that water out of that bag into a fresh water pump. And that's when the purification process starts. This is just in preparation for a water distribution point in case we get into a situation where we have to provide water to local populace or whatnot. And also to give the individual marines more experience and have them be comfortable in their gear. So definitely this train is going to make them a lot better and more confident in their gear. So if they do get put in that situation where, hey, you got to set this machine up, there's no problem to them. They know how to do it.


Hey guys, welcome back to another week of what's for dinner. My name is Andrea with food and entry adventures in food in My household, there's me my husband and our adorable one-year-old little boy So for dinner tonight, we are having orzo pasta with spinach I have made this a lot on our channel and I'll link a video So you guys can check it out in the description box And I had spinach and the free fridge that needed to be used up and then I also had some Shrimp and the freezer that I needed to use of course, you know, that's Harrison So the shrimp I just sauteed in garlic butter And then I added this seasoning to it and added it on top of the pasta So this is what we're having for dinner tonight and we'll see y'all next time Okay, so for dinner tonight, I pulled this pulled pork out of my freezer I'd actually forgotten all about it and I'm going to make pulled pork sliders So I've got my pork here and then I am going to use this barbecue sauce I'm gonna mix it up and warm it up and put it on these Hawaiian rolls and then I've got some provolone now normally I would use cheddar But provolone is what I have open and I just have a few slices I want to get rid of and then we are just gonna have some Doritos So a quick and easy dinner tonight Okay, so here's dinner got our sliders with the toasted and buttered buns The provolone cheese and then we've got the Doritos right here As you can see, they do not look like the Doritos on the package They actually kind of look like just plain tortilla chips Very mild in flavor Not spicy at all really can't taste any cheddar. They're the organic ones. I don't think I'd buy them again I'll just stick with the regular old Doritos. So anyway, this is what we're having for dinner tonight And we'll see y'all next time So for dinner tonight, we are having frozen pizza. It is from Motor City Pizza Company. I threw away the box to make room in my freezer This was actually a two-pack that I picked up from Costco And we really like this frozen pizza a lot. This brand is really good We like it more than the deep-dish DeGiorno pizza. It just has a better flavor. The sauce is better The crust is better. It is really good. I know you probably can't tell on camera, but it's a pretty decent size too And we got the ultimate meat pizza and it has what does it have in it pepperoni Italian sausage and bacon? So this is what we are having for dinner tonight, and we'll see y'all next time Hey guys today is Thanksgiving Day and this is actually only the second time that I've made our Thanksgiving dinner The first time was last year with COVID and so of course I made it again this year because we are staying at home So let me show you everything that I made. I made rice and peas for Howard. This was his special request He is Jamaican and really enjoys this and I actually did make this for our channel So I'll link it in the description box if you want to check out the recipe and then I made Macaroni and cheese. There's also a recipe for this on our channel That version is a crock-pot version. This recipe is exactly the same except I baked it I used white cheddar and then I just have the recipe but again, I'll link that in the description box I made some cornbread dressing and then I made sweet potato casserole, which is also on our channel So I'll link it in the description box and then neither one of us really wanted a turkey So yesterday I went to Sam's and bought a rotisserie chicken put it in the fridge and as you can see I didn't do a great job of Cutting it up. We just wanted the legs and the thighs and I also took out a couple of wings So we're gonna heat that up on our plates individually Yesterday to cut down on prep. I made greens collard greens Now I normally make them with ham hocks But I was trying to be a little bit healthier and decided to make them with smoked turkey wings instead And I will say it's good, but I definitely prefer ham hocks better and then for dessert I made sweet potato pie also have a recipe for that on our channel too. So I'll link it in the description box So once we get our plates fixed, I will show you our finished plates Okay, so here's our Thanksgiving plates. This one is mine. I've got the sweet potato casserole mac and cheese chicken greens dressing and gravy and then this is Howard's plate. He has greens mac and cheese the rice and peas and the chicken So this is what we're having for dinner today This is gonna be the last dinner of the week because we're gonna be having leftovers for several more days So this is what we are having for dinner tonight, and we will see you guys next time


I don't know if you saw this, but recently the Pentagon declassified a lot of UFO footage. If in the next decade, it turns out that alien life is real. How does that affect, change, frame our understanding of the divine? Oh, it greatly impacts it. Often what actually happened to believe in, listen, it's a good waste of space if it's not. Right. Right. I cannot believe that an intelligent being created the universe and the universe is bigger than our solar system. We live in the Milky Way. That's our galaxy, right, inside of a universe.  I don't believe that. Yeah, I don't believe that. I'll tell you what, that might unify us, though. We might finally be able to throw this social construct of race out the window. We got bigger fish to fry, you know, it would be like Galileo with his telescope battling with the church. He's got his telescope and he's looking out in space. And he says, oh, I see some imperfections in the moon. They don't want that. Oh, I can prove by standing in the town square all day that the sun does not revolve around the earth. The earth revolves around the sun. You don't want that. Why? Again, we have this box that we want to put the divine in. And when science began to prove there are craters in the moon. There's nothing wrong with this telescope. That's what's out there. The sun does not revolve around the earth. The earth revolves around the sun. The church had to kind of do some regress and to think differently about how they interpret God in the journey of being a human being. I think the same would be true if we came to discover there's other life. There's a movie for me this. I love it. Oh, you've seen it? I've seen it. I'm waiting for the second one. Man.  Do we then understand God as a governor of this quadrant of the universe or this quadrant of the galaxy or this quadrant of the solar system? Or is it still God is the God of the multiverse? So my framework is Christianity and the sacred text that is authoritative for me are the scriptures. We don't have it there. What I think would be extremely profound is to wrestle with what we do have after coming into contact with new information. How do we adjust what parts of the tradition need to be re-evaluated and assessed? One of the things the church is not good at is change because we're more married to a book than we are the author. When you talk about, you know, extraterrestrial life and life beyond this planet and where does God's government and authority begin and end, the scriptures that are given to me allow me to imagine and believe that the God of scripture is not a tribal God. He's not just the God of the Jews or the Israelites. He's not just the God of those who lived in Jerusalem and Judea. He's a God of the world. And by world, I don't just mean galaxy or solar system. God of the world. Now, you know, just notions of philosophy and existential reality. How do we explain the world around us? Again, lot of holes. The secret things belong to God. What is revealed belong to you and I. And when God begins to reveal more, how does that change traditions that we've held on to, beliefs that we've held on to? And what do you do with that? I'm sure you've heard about like chat, GPT, artificial intelligence. I have. I think we as humans have a history of wanting to be God in our own right. Whether we want to be sovereign over our own household, our city, our town, and as many gods or many aspirants of, you know, divinity, we have tried to create life, right? Now we can even we can even engineer fetuses with CRISPR-Cas9 and technology like that. How do we understand or how should we conceptualize the possibility of creating a consciousness that is inorganic? How does that conversation and the and the theological conversation? How does that even happen if we do create robots that think for themselves and have the soul, right? The personality and the whole night? What will that mean for our understanding of ourselves and ultimately God? Another brilliant question, man. I don't know where you're getting these questions from, but my first thought is I go back to the Genesis text where God says let us create man in our own image and in our own likeness. That obviously does not mean God has legs and hands, right? That's, you know, kind of being, you know, that's not what that means. But a part of it means that there's something within us that's God-like in our DNA.  And that's what we have done. We're always trying to create an advance and be innovative and create the next. There are brilliant minds among us who can look into the darkness of this world and still find hope and optimism. And technology has been one of those things for us. I would say since, you know, the modern age, I guess, you know, back and from the 80s moving forward.  I love the Matrix. I love all the Matrix joints. The Will Smith movie. I am robot. I don't think that's the right name, but the Will Smith movie, iRobot or whatever it's called, you know, all of those films are forward in their thinking and forward in their presentations about what's next for humanity. Technology is here to stay. It's not going away. It's going to evolve. We've gone from the Flintstones to the Jetsons. You remember the Flintstones, they start the car with their feet. They had a dinosaur. And then the Jetsons, they were flying around. I mean, we're just, we're just about there now. You know, they're talking to robots and tablets. That was a cartoon. You know, I think that that's a part of life. I think it's a part of our evolving as a human species. Again, what does it mean to be human? And now we've broadened that conversation. What does it mean to be human in close proximity to artificial intelligence? How does that intersect with conversations about the human soul and the afterlife? I saw on the news this had to have been eight to ten years ago. They were working on a robot. And robot looked just like the person doing the interview. And they said, what we're working towards is you will be able to talk to this robot every day, download information, your likeness. And when you die, we can resurrect you in this robot. There's a show about it. Black Mirror. Yes.   It's all around us. Think about what the world was like in 2020 and 2021 without technology. So, you know, I think it expands that conversation. It brings certain questions of existence into mind. What does it mean now to create something that will have a conscience and will outlive you and doesn't need your Bible and doesn't need the principle of faith, doesn't need things. Not only does it not need rest, it doesn't need hope.


Welcome to another edition of Yes, We're Here, Meredith Morakovitz, alongside Tino Martinez. Tino, let's go back into history and revisit some of the great moments you've had throughout your baseball career. What is one thing that stands out to you, just off the top? Well, a lot. I mean, individually, obviously, the Grand Slam in the World Series, the Home Lens in the World Series, that type of stuff, but the real thing that really stood out first and foremost was Charlie Hayes catching up the pop of our first World Series friend. That feeling was like something you dream of as a kid. You dream of getting the big leagues, you dream of having a great career there, but to play in the World Series and to win it is something you never think would happen. And when he caught that ball, I was all, everything just hits you at one time, like, this really happened, are you kidding me? And then you just started to party in it, but that was a great moment. He's running there, he's getting under it. How many times after that did you guys re-enact that forum? Oh, man, I mean, every time we see him and they play it all the time and I think they've actually done it at one of the old-timers games where Charlie has a third base there and somebody hit a pop up over there when the fans were in the stands. See, he ran over there and caught it and the fans knew what was going on and they all just started cheering again for that moment. So it's kind of cool. Well, it's funny, you were on the other side in 1995, as we know, that was an unbelievable ALDS and you certainly did damage against the Yankees. What was it like walking in that clubhouse the very next year? And did you have any idea at the time that you could be in store for the type of run that you guys went on? I had no idea, but I do remember that series. We started the first two games in New York at Yankee Stadium, the old stadium. And that's been the first time the Yankees had gotten to the playoffs in a long time. And the atmosphere there was the loudest I've ever heard that stadium or any stadium in baseball. The first two games there were both the Waffle, home runs, the hit late innings and all that stuff. The atmosphere was electric. And to go back to Seattle and wind up winning that series, which was a great series. I had to watch a game the other day on TV that had it on. It was a great moment, a great series and whatnot. But I never thought I'd even be traded from the Seattle Mariners. And when I got traded, I just thought, man, I can't believe that this team is just such a great team. I'm playing for these guys now. Paul O'Neill and Bernie Williams and Andy Pettit and upcoming Mariano and Derek. I knew we had a great chance to be a good team, but I didn't know how good we'd be. You mentioned Derek, you were on first base when he got his first hit in 1995. What did you say to him? Did you remember that conversation at all? I didn't know him at all. I didn't know. I just say, congratulations, man. I have many more to come, hopefully. That's all I said. I think he remembers that too. And who'd have thought 3,000 plus more would have been coming after that. You mentioned the Grand Slam in the World Series in 1998 and Game 1 against San Diego. Do you remember every second of stepping into the batter's box and not at bat today? I do, I do, yeah. The thing is, in those situations, it was already our second World Series and all that, but we know when the guy in front of me, I think, walked whatever it was. So I'm coming up there with two outs, whatever it was, and bases low. This is a tie game, but I remember the fans just going crazy. They announced your name. They're just going wild. And the weird thing is, and people say this, they don't understand it, though when you're up there at the plate, you really stop hearing them for a little bit. You just like watching the pitcher and focusing on the ball and ball one or strike one, whatever it is. And everybody talks about the two and two pitch. It was kind of close right there at the knees. And I thought it was low and it was one of the knees that could have been a ball or a strike. And I heard the crowd go, ooh, whatever it was and all that. But other than that, when you're in that three and two count that the ball's coming, you hit it. And then when I hit the grand slam, it was like, oh my God, you hear all the eruptions. Like all of a sudden the volume went turned off. Like the mute button got was off and now the turn, the volume came on. Like rolled out. I was like, wow, what an experience. And running around the bases was like, it was surreal. I was like half dizzy. Like, wow, this is unbelievable. It's been a grand slam in the World Series. I was gonna say, does it even feel real or does it almost feel like a euphoric experience as you're going through it? Totally euphoric.  It's like, grand slam, the World Series, you give us the lead here. You know, now I think we gotta hold this lead and win the game to make it really count. But I hit the whole plate there and then the standing curtain call was amazing. And then you go back on the field for defense. They're still roaring and still going crazy. So it was a great experience. Is there anything that replaces that crowd noise? Or will you remember that forever? I'll remember that forever. 100%. I think most people remember the guys I played with and the teams we played against in those World Series games in New York, the old stadium, all of those teams will remember that experience where they won or lost. Hey, you had a big one in 2001 as well. Take me through that one. Yeah, so basically we had never seen, we never played the Arizona Diamondbacks that year at Interleague Play or at all at that point. And Kim, the right hander, I believe was a side arm reliever. None of us ever faced him. So in the eighth inning, I think maybe the six hitters up, six, seven or eight hitters, I went into the locker room. Back then we had like the video room they have now. The locker room, our TV had the game on. So I just watched him pitch to the first three hitters. He went one, two, three. And he threw a fastball right down the middle to every one of them, because they'd never seen him before. And then he did it with the slider, slider, slider. And he went one, two, three. And then I went back down there again and sitting over it, came back in. And first hitter, first pitch, first pitch fastball right there. And so I said, if I get a chance to hit, I'm looking for a first pitch fastball and I'm gonna hit it hard because most guys were taking from him because they never had faced him. So when I got up there, I looked for a first pitch fastball, I got it and I hit it hard. And it was like a hard long line drive to right center and I wasn't sure it was going out or not. Then he was going back to get it. And when it went over the fence, so to tie the game. Again, that was a loud stadium. I mean, Paul O'Neill was jumping around. He was on the first base of the time. And at home plate, he almost killed me with a high five and it was awesome. Now we were talking a little bit about the World Series, you of course, Juan, for with the Yankees of those World Series, which had the best post-games celebration? After the win. Give me some of the dirt, Tino. I wasn't really dirt.  We had, we actually had a family member had rented out the Oak Room at the Plaza Hotel. That was, that was in, I'm sorry, that was in 19, that was in 1999. Within the Plaza Hotel, and we had this huge bash there where all the front office came, families came, and we were there until about 7.30 in the morning. And I remember going back home, I lived in New Jersey at the time and obviously in the cab, went back to the cab to the house of New Jersey. The front yard that had a pick up a newspaper, went in the house, went to bed until about two o'clock in the afternoon and had a great time. But that was a good party. I'm sure it was.  More nerve wracking, playing in the World Series or giving a speech after they told you that your plaque would be in Monument Park. Oh man, giving a speech. Oh, that's the hardest part. I remember giving that call from the front office saying they're gonna give me a plaque in June 14th or whatever and I'm going, first of all I was shocked. I'm like, wow, what an honor and stuff. And it was, it blew my mind. And then from that point on, this was like months earlier, like three months earlier. And every single day and night, every activity, what can I say? What am I gonna say? What am I, and it just drove me nuts. So that was tough, but exciting.


Hi, everyone, this is Jason here from Nathaniel School of Music. In this lesson, we are going to talk about just one chord, the dominant seventh chord, this one. And I have 10 approaches which will help you really understand the purpose of this chord. Train your ear, thus train your ear to acknowledge, okay, this is what the chord can really do, and also improve your theory. So in this two part lesson series, I'm going to take the dominant seventh chord and look at 10 ways in total, five in part one, five in part two, 10 ways to kind of train your ear and your theory to be aware of the sound of that chord and what it does for music, all the scenarios it can be used. And in my opinion, I think this is the most important chord in music. Yes, you have major, you have minor, but music does not have the ebb and flow, the tension, the resolution, the release, and the anticipation, you know, if you don't have this chord. And this chord is probably the oldest chord, along with major and minor. You would have major, you would have minor, and then you have this one, which is the dominant seventh. So I just want to share with you how I use this chord and how you can train your ear and hopefully use these approaches to, yes, first of all, train your ear. It's primarily a ear training awareness lesson, but also, well, you have to train your theory. So if you stick around, the theoretical concepts will also be super useful for you guys to try out. And there are a lot of piano things also along the way. So it's a very three dimensional way of looking at it. As I use this term very often, 3D, theory, ear training, and technique all in one. So that's what this lesson is going to do, just like pretty much all of our YouTube lessons. So before we get started, it'll be great if you could hit that subscribe button, there's a bell which you could hit for notifications, and let's get cracking, right? So the first way of studying the dominant seventh chord is to use it and apply it in what we call as the authentic cadence or the perfect cadence. So the perfect cadence or the authentic cadence is nothing but a five chord going to the one chord, okay? So the five is built from a scale. So if I have the G major scale for you as an example, G is the one, D is the five, G, A, B, C, D. One, two, three, four, five, so D becomes the five. And the five chord forms what we call as a primary dominant chord. So it's a seventh chord or the only seventh chord which exists in the major scale. So that's why I guess they call it the primary dominant. And the primary dominant which is in this case D seventh because D is the five of G has this magnetic attraction or this pull, this strong pull to the tonic chord. And the tonic we say is one. So the D seventh tends to want to go to G major. So I've written it here, D, F sharp, A, C which is the notes of D seventh resolves to G major which is G, B, D. And you may be observing how I've written it in a circle, the reason being inversions. You don't have to necessarily play the chord this way all the time. You can invert it or this or this, okay? So why have chosen this cadence or this authentic or the perfect cadence? Because it's the most obvious way to actually use the dominant seventh chord. So what I would hope when you're listening to a song is you identify this cadence. Some people think that you have to identify one chord and you should have that skill to identify one chord. But my advice for you is rather than think of it as one chord and put so much of pressure on yourself make it about two chords or three chords or four chords which are all part of a very, very common used to cadence. And we've talked about cadences so much on this YouTube channel. Just go to our channel type cadences. You'll get a lot of stuff, a lot of information on the topic. So let me just break this down for you on the piano and also let's look at a little bit of the ear training involved and all the skills you may need to develop along the way while learning and practicing the authentic cadence. So if you take D seventh, you can build that seventh as a major chord plus A dominant seventh. So that's D F sharp A C and that seems to go to D G B. So D F sharp A C, D G B, that's what we call as the authentic cadence. Now there are two notes which make this cadence really magnetic. So you go D F sharp A C, the C tends to really want to go to the B. So D F sharp A C, the C tends to really want to go to the B. So but you could also think of it as so I would urge you to practice it in two ways. One is stick the four up on top. Actually try and sing that. So four going to three. And then you could also do seven, eight, nine, ten. Last seven going to one because the seven is very close to one. So that'll be A C D F sharp which is still D seventh going to B D G. So this should give you a very good way of using the dominant seventh chord. Train your ear. Try to remember what did I say? Move that four to the three. Practice that. That's where you have your half step motion on the piano and then practice moving your seven going to the root or the tonic or the octave you could say. And this is a very good way of using the dominant seventh chord. You could even go into the root or the tonic or the octave you could say. And this is a very strong cadence, very popular, very common cadence. Practice it well and use the circle of fifths. The circle of fifths pretty much gives you the fifth. So you could resolve the five going to one by just drawing the circle, staring at it and resolving. All the best with that. Let's move on to the second way which I have for you to learn the dominant seventh chord and really drill it inside your brain. So in the second demonstration of the dominant seventh chord I wanted to plot out all the seventh chords of the major scale. So if you look at it and I'm trying to take different major scales for this lesson so we don't just stick on one and I've actually written it down for you. So you may want to get a copy of these notes.  And we will prefer the same platform because most of the lessons have my handwritten notes as well as MIDI files in some cases, backing tracks which you could check out. So I have written down the D major scale here and I've written it down using seventh chords. Now the seventh chords of the major scale are one major seventh, two minor seventh, three minor seventh, four major seventh, five dominant seventh, six minor seventh and seven minor seventh flat five also known as a half diminished chord. Now why I wrote this stuff down is to show you that there is only one dominant seventh chord in the scale which is there which is diatonically there in the particular scale. The rest would probably form other dominant seventh chords which we call as secondary dominance. So if you take the D major scale its first chord or its one chord ends up forming a D major seventh chord whose formula is one three five seven so that will be D major with the major seventh. What is that? D sharp and that makes it diatonic. So to me the major seventh chord just feels very relaxing and a lot more stable than its counterpart dominant seventh chord which is that. Now this is always asking the question where do I go next. So when you are in the D major scale a good way to play around with this chord or this contrast is to play the one major seventh or start with the one and then see what the one dominant seventh will do. In this case and in all cases the one dominant seventh is the five of the four chord so the D seventh in this case is the five of this G major. So when you use D dominant seventh or D seventh it will resolve to G major seventh while when you use D major seventh its a very different flavor it will pretty much stay resolved. So in this approach of you digesting the sound of the dominant seventh chord my recommendation would be practice D major seventh and observe it as a more stable entity while the D dominant seventh is actually a chord which comes outside the D major scale which resolves to a chord within the D major scale in this case the G major seventh we call this the five of the four this is how I write it five of four it's also called as a secondary dominant chord we've done a very very detailed set of lessons on the secondary dominant chord using a bunch of song examples so watch those YouTube lessons as well and just to play around with it I just thought I'll pick a song you know so if you take falling in love with you you take so what did he do there? he did now see this is where you can actually squeeze in the D dominant seventh which has a completely different purpose and a completely different function than the these are all the atomic chords very stable but that's the dominant you can look at the chords we've written down there so where I actually have that contrast in this song you're still playing a D so you're starting with the D major seventh which is a very resolved start and then going to F sharp minor B minor and then only I'm sneaking in a four of the a five of the four D major D dominant seventh is the five of the G okay so this is another way I would like you to practice what I've called as one major seventh versus one dominant seventh in conclusion the major seventh is diatonic it's part of the scale while the dominant seventh is coming into a chord from the scale so it's an unstable entity and it resolves especially when you do the one major seventh compare it with the one dominant seventh you'll find that the dominant seventh chord resolves to the four major in this case G major seventh I've chosen the key of D so this is another nice way to train your ear and your theory brain to really get acquainted with the dominant seventh chord by contrasting it with its major seventh chord moving on so the most common or the most popular way you'll find probably of using the dominant seventh chord is in our favorite genre the blues the blues pretty much started it all in terms of contemporary music it's inspired arguably every genre in the past I don't know hundred odd years now what happens with the twelve bar blues it's a very standard progression it's one and then it goes to the four so I'm on the key of B flat B flat major two flats so this is your one then we go to the four E flat and then the five which is F so one four one five so the twelve bar blues progression is pretty much going to use the one chord the four chord and the five chord for its work the formula or the progression will be Roman I going to Roman IV back to Roman I and then you stay on Roman I demonstrated by these dots and then you go to Roman IV stay on Roman IV and back to one and then you go to five and then back to four back to one five ok now in some cases they kind of ignore the four they just repeat the one throughout that's also quite common in some cases they just continue the one here that's also common but you get the idea right the entire twelve bar blues framework is based on dominant seventh chords and here they are not really used in a resolving manner it's just used to bring up that idiomatic vibe of the blues which is characterized by the dominant seventh chord yes there are a lot of other things which characterize the blues scale like the blues genre like the scale the blues scale you also have the swing rhythm now we have covered a lot about blues we've even made a playlist on our YouTube channel check out our playlist and you'll find a lot of videos on all the way from beginner blues to something more intermediate and funky and all of that now just to show you again you play your twelve bar blues with dominant seventh chord so I'm going to recap that B flat seventh so I'll just do each chord four times four crotchets in a bar so one one B flat seventh one one and then I go to D four four again back to one one again and then the five which is F four which is E flat and one bar out of five F B flat twice so the blues is another great way to digest the sound of the dominant seventh chord so if you're watching this video and you haven't heard too much of the blues start listening to a lot of blues artists like BB King John Mayer plays a lot of blues if you like him you can listen to Ray Charles is a great piano player who plays blues and jazz so many blues artists so start listening to the blues it's a great genre it's really inspired so many people including me of course moving forward right guys so the next way to showcase dominant seventh chords would be in a line cliche movement as we call it popularly now you could either look at a descending line movement or an ascending line movement now all that's happening is the bass notes are going to move ascending chromatically or descending chromatically so if you see the chart here I've written down C to C major seventh going to C C major seventh then going to F major and what's going to happen here at the upper range of the notes you have the C and then going down to B because B is part of C major seventh C is part of the C major triad C major seventh da da da da and you kind of compare that line drop that line chromatic drop of course you can continue so many songs you all know something by the Beatles and yeah so what happened there descending line. Let me demonstrate that with the bass on the keyboard. So as a keyboard player you can drop your pinky to the major seventh and then you go dominant seventh eventually C seventh would resolve to the fourth of the scale which is F major so now the dominant comes up and so on we'll just take that for now now the that was the descending line cliche movement you can also consider the ascending line cliche movement which is a chromatic ascend now how does that happen with these chords I start with C major now I do a major which is actually like an a seventh but with a C sharp bass see C sharp is anyway part of the chord right so C major C sharp and C major keep climbing this actually D with D sharp bass is all into E minor or E major so this is another nice way of practicing the dominant chord because every middle chord in this climb will be basically the dominant chord so a over C sharp is actually a dominant chord hidden because it's a five of this one it's still like a it's still a five of the D or D's five is a so that seems to pull itself really strongly to D so line cliche is another really nice way to explore the sound of the dominant seventh chord or just the dominant chord in general the five going to one in that fashion you're in in the descending movement you do see be flat a very good songwriting tool so many songs do that or you can climb a lot of artists do either right so that was the line cliche usage of the dominant seventh chords all of these methods which I'm trying to convey to you are ways to really use this in a songwriting manner but also train your year so whenever you're faced with a dominant seventh chord you know exactly how it sounds and you also know what to do with it in what scenario can you use it or just have as many options as possible it's a very it's a beautiful chord and a very important chord so please learn it well let's move forward two three four right guys so the next way of using the dominant seventh chord is in the Dorian scenario on the Dorian scale so the Dorian scale basically is a major scale you form it by taking a major scale flat in the third raise the sixth with respect to the natural minor as we say or you can just say normal sixth major sixth and flat in the seventh so I've used E flat for our example there we go E flat Dorian right there E flat F G flat A flat B flat C don't do B that'll make it natural minor C D flat E flat now how this scale is generally formed is if you build triads you're gonna end up with a one minor and then if you jump to the four instead of getting a four minor which you get in the minor scale you'll be getting a four major so there's a one minor and a four major first digest this Dorian sound one to four that's one minor to four major and so on so what's interesting to note that when you do the four it'll be a flat C E flat and then you you climb further to it's actually a dominant seventh chord so your one is a minor seventh and your four is actually a dominance seventh chord so if you practice the Dorian combo which is one minus seventh X four dormitons seventh it's another nice way to digest the sound they developed like a nice turn around at the end which is again two dominant chords that's B dominant ending with a B flat seventh which is the five dominant of E flat. So anyway, we'll take you back to the E minor 7 and you look at it. You can keep doing this. One minor, four dominant, B. So B would be like your 6 flat, 6 flat sliding down to the 5 7th. All 7th chords. See it sounds very different if you change the quality of the 4. It almost sounds wrong. The sound wrong is just a very different sound. It doesn't at all belong to E flat Dorian, isn't it? So if you use the Dorian scale and just play this progression. One, five dominant. The dominant turn around which is the B in a funky way. I guess you're realizing quite a few songs which use this very funky and as you can see you tend to get carried away when you play this particular progression. Right guys? So so far we've covered five ways of using the dominant 7th chord. First off with the authentic or the perfect cadence 5 going to 1. Then we've looked at well just combining just getting to know the difference between the major 7th chord and the dominant 7th chord. So that I think is very important. Then we looked at using it in the most popular genre ever the blues. So that's the 12 bar blues for you. Then we look at a line cliche movement which is just chromatically going down or chromatically going up. And then lastly in this particular part we've looked at the funky Dorian progression which is using the Dorian scale a scale with a flat 3 and a flat 7 with a raised 6 if you call it that and one minor going to 4 dominant 7th. And then you do a turn around which is the B going to B flat which is your 6 flat dominant going to 5 dominant. So a lot of dominant 7th chord. So as this series is it's all about getting you to know that chord. The dominant 7th chord hopefully you really digest the sound of that chord or the flavor of that chord. And let's move on to another part now where we'll digest it even more. And I'll be giving you 5 more ways of really noticing the chord and trying to get it into your system. So I hope you found this lesson useful. Again this is Jason here from Nathaniel.

What's happening you handsome SOV salad Mike back again with another fix your form video if you want to get involved email Three reps at 70% to ask my kke at gmail.com. I'm here to coach y'all up Help you out. Hopefully learn a thing or three about some lifting and fix your form We got some conventional deadlifts starting off the party first off this gym looks kind of dope Don't know where you are, but all the Liko stuff bunch of racks overall my man Form is looking a a one if I do say so myself Back looks really flat hips are in a pretty dang good position I think we're going slow mo here. So extra extra extra slow mo Looks like you get good tension in your hamstrings pull the slack out of the bar and it looks like you keep it really close A front angle may help I don't know if we're gonna get one but just focus on flexing your lats and stomach as hard as you can and making sure that Bar is in contact with you the entire time Otherwise, I really don't got much of a fix you can try if you want to experiment with a slightly higher chin and eye position It may feel a little bit better, but overall to be honest Not a whole lot to fix. It looks really really really good Moving on to the next one. What do we got? More conventional deadlifts everybody's trying to build that booty hashtag peach king hashtag peach gang You guys know what it is So another actually pretty cool-looking gym looks like we got some conventional deadlifts As I previously mentioned Let's see what we got Overall really really solid man. I say you rushing that second rep Just a little bit make sure that you're really breathing breathing and bracing in that back and almost trying to think about Falling backwards a little bit. So once you get that midline With your lats in your stomach real rigid from your hip to your chin. Oh hip to your shoulder What am I talking about from your hip to your shoulder really really rigid? Let's almost get you a little bit of a teeter-totter effect I did this in a previous video if you guys want to check back about a week ago about a week ago week ago That you want to get that as rich as you can get your momentum falling backwards just a little bit You want to push into your hips that means not hips downwards but hips backwards almost to that wall behind you falling back Just slightly we'll get a little bit more tension in those hamstrings get your body weight behind the barbell Just a little bit more and that not only will protect your back of hair but it also Allow for proper bar path and also tension Not only through the bar, but in the proper muscle. We want to keep tension in our hamstrings low back glutes through the entire repetition from start to finish Right now overall pretty dang solid. I wouldn't worry too much I'm not a huge fan of facing into the mirror if you want to face away just to get more body awareness And then also maybe chin down just to hear my friend. It's a conventional pulling party guys Let's see what we've got here shoes off in the commercial gym. I like it nice and gross. Hopefully don't get staph infection Staph infection Normal gyms are absolutely disgusting All right, not too bad So what I think we can do here is one get your chin up eyes up just a hair Another thing is as you're lined up on the bar. I want you to take maybe half an inch step backwards away from the bar And that's gonna let you to bend your knees just a little bit more and get those hips down a hair Now I know I talk a lot about people's hips being too low and squatting the weight up, but in your case Your hips are a little too high in my opinion now Generally speaking we want to get our hips just below our shoulders And in this case you're putting a lot of that load in your low back And and hinging off your low back if you bend your knees just a hair hips down Just a hair remember to flex your middle breathe into your stomach sides and low back as well as flexing your lats Pulling that bar into you and then allowing your knees just to travel forward a little bit more Will allow those hips lower and a hinge on your hips rather than your low back my friend It really is a conventional pulling party This gentleman does a really good job of it You can see I'm kind of push into the hamstrings on that first rep Knees are forward just a hair getting the quads off the ground and then finishing the rep now Some people's hips will be higher and look higher than others But that's mostly based on thigh length femur length and then the length of their torso Will be pretty much make up your mind for you where you're gonna pull The only other thing is that I've talked about in a couple videos is I'm not a huge fan of touch-and-go deadlifts for Majority of people One I think you're gonna lose a lot of the Tension and the work in the bottom half because even if you're trying to be careful the weight to are gonna bounce And you're gonna not have to control the weight on the first couple inches Momentum obviously will do it especially with a bumper plate or something like that To I think that it's not as Controlled or repeatable and powerlifting although very basic an idea the execution of it can be quite complex Where we want to make as many variables go away and everything is repetitive as possible We want to be able to repeat the process over and over and over and with touching goes often people just get loose and the second third fourth Whatever amount of reps you do after your first will be so different than the original Moving on to the next one it it really is a conventional poem party, and I'm loving it Overall looks pretty dang solid my friend especially that rep right there the first rep they look like you just got a hair out of position That the bar came forward on you you may need your hips up just a hair higher Sometimes when your knees move too far forward beyond the issue of squatting the weight up and not have attention your hamstrings Glutes which I've talked about in many videos Another issue is the bar path if our knees are too far forward We're gonna have to get our knees out of the way or move the barbell out of our The way of our knees either way we're gonna either have a funky bar path Or we're gonna have to lock our knees before our hips And then our weights can be too far forward and under maximal weights or even semi-maximal weights You know 75 80 85 percent that bar will tug us forward That's one of the main differences between kind of the pole and weightlifting like a clean or even a snatch and the pole and powerlifting Weightlifting you want to be in front of the bar a little bit as you bring it into your knees No, ma maybe not even a little bit You want to be in front of the bar a lot of it in powerlifting We want to keep the the Perspective of where our shoulders are to the bar the same if not more behind the bar as we progressively lift the bar and Finally we got some cheaters in here ladies and gentlemen the sumo deadlift from this angle my man It actually looks really really good, and I'm not just talking about your triceps I'm talking about your general technique going beltless here like my man Constantine Constantine off Although you set up a little bit from the bottom and there may be a little bit too much art in your low back a little bit overextended I'll try to either one bring those ribs down and really brace into that stomach or two drop that chin just a hair But overall really really clean sumo What do we got my old conventional So even right here is another decent example one I think a flatter shoe will always do you a little bit better But two you do have a little bit longer of a torso although you are too far in front of the bar still So I'd like to see those hips a hair higher But even a bit further back, and that's why you're kind of getting the issue of a slight rounded lower back Again from your hips your shoulder is a little bit longer than normal, which isn't that big of a deal You're just gonna have to adjust by hips a hair higher Which will allow you to flatten your back and then get your body weight shifted backwards Falling back will allow you to get the tension in your hamstrings and glutes and Still hinge off those hips You're probably a pretty dang decent squatter Looks like you got some little femurs from your knee to your hip looks quite short And so you kind of need to take advantage of that by pushing those hips back getting more body weight behind the bar overall Again, it's really really solid when I'm critiquing you guys, you know generally speaking all of your guys This forms pretty dang good, you know 80 to 90 percent there. It's just the last couple tweaks along with getting stronger You know, I think people Get paralysis by analysis in many forms some people overanalyze their programming Some people overland analyze the weights that they are lifting and some people overanalyze the technique that they're Stuck with or wanting to fix and the truth is every session you go into Regardless of lift all three lifts bodybuilding powerlifting squat bench dead doesn't really matter We should constantly be focusing focusing on a couple things We want to improve on our technique for that day or that month or that week or that block and also Actually just getting stronger because again There's more than just one way to get stronger being more efficient at your technique Can help you get stronger in the long run allow you to handle more volume and lift the weight more efficiently But also just getting stronger building more muscle building those neural pathways to fire your muscles a little bit better can help overall Here's another example of hips probably being too low as you can see once you start to yank on that bar There's no tension in the hamstrings or glutes and his hips are gonna shoot up your hips the bar will move off the ground When your hips are in the proper position to pull so might as well try to find that proper position That's kind of why I have people set up from the top down What I would try to do here my friend is have your hips a hair higher at the start and again Wait kind of falling backwards push those hips back if you guys need a visual example go back to the video Like literally four videos back I start talking about deadlifts and people getting their weight behind the bar not squatting it up and I give a more visual example of that so Overall your forms really good backs in good position stance all that looks very solid But I would start with your hips up a little bit higher the issue again Is that you're trying to squat the weight up no tension in your hamstrings using your quads to get the weight moving and then kind of your hips find the place for their place and then and then and then and then Your hips will move finally being able to move the bar rather. We'd rather just have our Hips you know hamstrings glutes low back and quads all moving in unison to be the most efficient if you guys like this series Be sure to smash the thumbs up subscribe if you're new a more raw gym footage of logs and teaching on the way Salam might guys. I'm out of here. Appreciate you


But if you are dining yourself down to be around them, they are not friends. They're acquaintances, which is fine once you settle that. Once you settle this person is an acquaintance, you put them into the acquaintance space on the algorithm. If you keep acquaintances in the friendship part in the algorithm, every time you reach to that relationship, you are going to realize, I am not me around those people, but we keep hanging out and doing things together and developing our courts friendship. And the more you do it, the more you are separating you from you to keep them.


of the Sir Arthur Lewis Community College, and success fields. We survived Tropical Storm Matthew. We survived the World On Come. We survived Zika. We changed two governments, one here in St. Russia and one in the United States of America. Even changed our school principal. Class of 2016, such a memorable class. Her excellency, Dempelet-Louisie, please allow me to adopt the protocol already established, and wish everyone a pleasant good morning, a special good morning to us, the civic ambassadors in the words of Dr. Gail Rigabert, graduate of the Department of Health Science, the Division of Teacher Education and Educational Administration, the Division of Agriculture, and the Division of Arts, Science, and General Studies. Not know me, but I'm Renita from the Division of Arts, Science, and General Studies. Though you may not have seen me, apart from on social media, we attended the Arthur Lewis Community College together. Now, before I go anywhere, please allow clearly apologize for delaying your graduation ceremony further. And delaying the most exciting and most memorable part of our graduation ceremony, self-fist, with the certificate. Today is a special day in all our lives. And as I look around and I see so many budding academics, athletes, artists, leaders, team players, so many persons that have inspired me, it is truly humbling to have been chosen as your valedictorian. The Arthur Lewis Community College, named in honor of one of St. Pusher's most accomplished sons, has given us all a solid foundation on which to build. And for that solid foundation, we, the graduates, thank the faculty and staff of SALCC. Round of applause for our faculty and staff. At SALCC, the faculty helped us align with our passion, whether it was delivering safe and effective healthcare through the Department of Health Science, or promoting healthier food choices through the Division of Agriculture. Seeking knowledge through the Division of Arts, Science, and General Studies, or imparting knowledge through the Division of Teacher Education and Educational Administration. Civic Ambassadors, remember that. For all of us, all division, SALCC was not just a journey of academic growth, but a journey of personal growth as well. We grew in our uniqueness as individuals, and we grew as a group of St. Lucians preparing to contribute to the community. And as we transition into the next stage in our life, post-SALCC, let's keep in mind our school sport, pursuit of excellence, pursuit of excellence. We all have different talents, just waiting to be put into worthy pursuit, so that we can add value to the lives around. Whatever we choose to pursue, we must give it our best effort. And aim to be outstanding, pursue excellence in all that do. Now much has been said at graduations, such as these, and much more can be said regarding our education thus far. Dr. Rigabat talked about core competencies for jobs that have not yet come on the scene. Our education can improve our socioeconomic background and alleviate poverty. But today, I prefer to focus on how our educational experience at SALCC has shaped our character. For it is said that education is responsible for the formation of character, and it should initiate positive change in behavior and attitude. Therefore, the real value of our education does not lie in what qualification or title we finally achieve. The real value of our education lies in the type of person we are transformed into, our character, how we treat others on a daily basis and how we reflect love, respect, and kindness. Color one student at SALCC unknowingly taught me the importance of showing love. Now I'm not a big fan of hugs. I don't often greet people with a hug and it feels awkward for me to get a greeting with a hug. I always thought a handshake and a smile would suffice. I've watched one of my friends give hug after hug, a huge load of hugs. And I have come to admire her because I've learned that sometimes a handshake and a smile don't suffice because while they came from the best of intentions, they didn't embrace anyone and they didn't say what a hug can say. A hug can say, I'm sorry, I appreciate you, I understand, I care, thank that friend for showing me that we need more hugs to embrace people, to show people we care and to reflect love, respect, and kindness. Many adults have advised me that in life, 75% or even more of our success is attributed not to our academic or technical competence but to our interpersonal skills, how we respect others and how we deal with other people. Because wherever life takes us, one thing is for sure, we will have to interact with new people, people of varying cultural backgrounds, people of varying education levels, people with different needs. And at the end of the day, it will no longer be our parents, our friends, our teachers, but complete strangers. And it is our ability to respect these people and deal effectively that will contribute to our success and by extension, our happiness. We can all agree that our country is facing troubling times. There are so many problems it has become frustrating, depressing, even frightening to listen to the news. We've often heard it said that as youth, we are the future of St. Lucia, the civic ambassadors. One sure way of us having an impact is to embrace kindness and to seize every opportunity to reflect love, respect, and kindness. By being the first to acknowledge and greet people, hold in the door for a stranger, or offering some words of encouragement for the cashier at the end of a long checkout line. SuperJ would be better for it. Massey stores, Massey stores, sorry. There's no quick fix to our country's problems. But whatever we learn to do, we learn by actually doing it. So I urge you to start today, not tomorrow, not the day after that. Today, endeavor to put a smile on someone's face. And throughout your day, embrace love, respect, and kindness. Because in a few years, we will look back at all we've done, all we've said, and the people we've met. But a lasting memory will be the love, respect, and kindness that we have experienced from teachers and students alike, and how it contributed positively to our experience. The lesson here is that three things we all crave in life, love, friendship, and happiness, love, friendship, and happiness, are achieved when we give it to others. Let's think of it. To have a friend, you must first be a friend. As they say, the best vitamin for friendship is B1. I hope you guys remember that and embody it every day. To be loved, we must love. Happiness is something we feel when we radiate it to others. So in all that you do, embrace love, respect, and kindness. At this moment, I would like to thank everyone. Parents, come on, parents. Teachers, well-wishers, everyone who has contributed to our success. Fellow graduates, congratulations again. And I wish you the very best. As we go through life, let our character show our education by embracing love, respect, and kindness. Love, thank you. Wait, wait, wait. Now we can go take our graduation selfies.
