t just dorsion? I I'm not sure if you can get them as an outbreak like I want to say you can just get them as a distortion, but I'm not 100 sure I like I haven't seen them as an outbreak. So it would kind of make me think You probably can't but I mean how cool would it be if you could that would be that would be that I would love that I think that would be that would be so good. It'd be kind of the same for like spirit tomb and and like unknown I think those would be really good outbreaks as well Um, but I think the starters might just be the distortion fields And Boto, did you know that torteranos head long rush? I didn't know that actually Osalana the only other Pokemon that knows it We've annoyed that one now Right, let's get rid of this one And gab I still I hope you get it. It's 60. I really hope so gab. I really do Context is cool. It's shiny spirit tomb huntable. I think from what I'm from what I've heard Spirit tomb is a really really rare spawn like after you've complete that like the spirit tomb side quest it can appear Um in the what's the area called? I can't remember what the area is off the top of my head But whatever the area where you go to get the spirit tomb It can appear there, but it's very low um Spawn rate But that would be then shiny like you would be able to catch that as a shiny So that would be an awesome one to get and there is four still what we're doing Now they are still spawning Was that a shiny there? Was that a shiny? I want to say I think I saw stars, but I'm not really too sure if I did Three shiny catches in one day. Has she great great job I want to say one of those was I don't know if I'm just making this up or not Because what I I swear I saw some stars, but I don't know if I'm just like nah, none of those were stars Let's catch them and see I just want to be able to kind of Kind of do this. That's not a shiny there Okay, well we'll catch it anyway, and then I can try and that's not a shiny and That's not a shiny But they're still Oh no shiny How do you evolve roughly to bravery it's level 54 it's just regular level up that definitely wasn't a shiny Um before you do anything. I'm just gonna go back to the snowfields Just a check just a check just a double check because I have no idea. I don't think any of them are but It's worth checking just in case No, none of them are are they oh my god I went on to Evian. I was like I saw that the sparkle and like it is it's not Okay to get spur to um, it's in crimson mealans. Yeah crimson I can't remember the place where it is though and the crimson mealans where you go off the top of my head shrouded ruins Is it shrouded ruins? I think No, sometimes I'm mistaken that the catch fireworks is a shiny gleam. Yeah I think that's exactly what I did there and I'm just like trying to convince myself that we finally got the shiny and it's It's not it's not it's definitely not. It was just that.  Here we go Shiny time the bird's still here. It's still there It's just never leaving. It's never leaving. It's always gonna be the bird Yeah pods. I'm gonna have to change over my headphones Uh, okay. I need to change These to these uh, let's put these down Think I'm gonna have to this I don't know if obs is gonna be really annoying because you have to set obs up with my air pods for them to be like The speakers and I don't know if I'm like midstream if I can change my headphones over to like manual ones Because their batteries just ran out on those Let me see if I can Settings, I don't know if it will work though Just go to that and then try this hopefully it will Yeah, okay. We got it We got it. Uh, so we're here. Sorry about that chat Just because otherwise if I don't do it I'm never here the shiny Okay, then what's your favorite pokemon always got to be tyranitar for sure Glitch, how are you doing? Hope you're well. Thanks for hoping and enjoying the stream. Hope you're having a great friday Hope you hope you are the one that brings us a little bit of luck in this Hunt because we have had We've had some luck. We got a shiny cadabra earlier randomly, but we've not had the roughlet yet and this is Crazy long crazy long. Oh everything spotted us everything six on one Rui, texera, how are you doing? I'm hunting Eevee shiny for hours and don't know if I'm doing it right If you check that there's a there's a the um Can't you save the mass and jubilee life? I wouldn't I would save in the camp That's uh, because jubilee life every time you leave that area like so if you go into an area from jubilee life and like Every time you're doing that you're kind of getting a new spawn So you want to save it the camp if you're doing it this way Because then you've got if you come to it and you mess up the the shiny for for whatever reason right say Like something goes wrong the shiny gets away Then you can reset your game at that point and then get the shiny again um If that makes sense So you kind of always want to save it the camp If you're doing it this method But if you're like hunting shiny like alpha pokemon and not the mass outbreaks, then you would always save at jubilee life If that makes sense But I think there's a link in the chat now. I think that it's just like a timer thing just popped up Um a timer chat just with a link to the the mass outbreak guide Mark how are you doing just caught an omus Congratulations my friend. I'm not going to say it out loud the name just in case it spoils it for anyone Hope you can understand but congrats congrats. I think Oh, what are we doing? There's no more spawns. So if these aren't shiny Which neither of them are as is all as there's all ktms. Thank you so much For the sub and if you are joining us tonight What's that bebham and leslie grants it grants what sorry glitches are loud Glitching my loud drop my youtube here. Yeah, go for it. Drop it drop it. That's fine That's fine If you want to do that I don't mind. I don't mind. I don't know a fair links are on the or if they've been disabled so you can try I'm not too sure so Sorry, so watch all of you comment lately. It's really good. Keep it up. Thank you so much mark really appreciate that I really do thanks coming into the chat as well. Evelyn Lee speaking of which do you think Will be impactful if it's allowed. I think it would be um 100% I think it's pretty bust It's pretty awesome. I hope it is if they do it's going to be exciting nonetheless I think it's it's pretty cool like the signature moves are nuts On all of the genies I'm not going to like speak out loud because I feel like there's people that haven't got that far in their playthrough So I don't want to spoil it for them. So I'm just going to leave it at that because I think This is 58 as well But yeah, I yeah, I think for vg It's kind of exciting like the genius always been good, right? I'm Splat So where do you save at the camp or the village because I keep getting an alpha wimple every time you reset So you want to save at the camp, right? You want to save at the camp and then if you go to the mass outbreak and there's no shiny there You want to reset your game and the first thing you do after you reset is leave head back to jubilee village and then go back onto the map from jubilee village and if Hopefully the same um outbreak is there, right the same pokemon outbreak is there, right? um If it's not just reset your game and kind of start over again um And then come like repeat that process till the same outbreak is there Because it can change sometimes when you you go back from and then you want to come back Into that outbreak area again And then when you're back in that area at the camp save there again and kind of repeat the process from there if that makes sense But don't don't save in juba life don't save in juba life because that will not that will not work Not for these So I hope that helps But like I said, there's a full guide on the channel of how you can do it and it should be linked in there In the chat. There should be nightbot should be doing its job And pulling it up every so often or you could kind of uh, I think if you exclamation mark outbreak it should bring the link up for you Yeah, paul don't worry. I'm gonna wear I'm not gonna I'm not gonna I'm not gonna talk about anything to do with spoilers or try not to because I don't want to spoil it for anyone because it's um there's some stuff That not everyone knows and it's it's cool to kind of like have that first time experience I think the outbreak has finished. I think that's the last one. Oh, no, it hasn't it hasn't it is They're still spawning Could this be the one Definitely not is this method better than pilka radar? Yeah, I would say 100 it is paul for sure although Right now looking at it It's it doesn't look like it, but it is it is it is better for sure But this is the exception where it can be like really bad Welcome back hashi Let's get this spray on where are these Yeah, this must be it now. I think If the message come I like I've not seen the message pop up They like oh, oh there's one here. Yeah It's not the shiny though And that is the last one so 59 is it going to be 59 here we go Logging got a who's seeing the growl without break. Good luck with that deke trading. How are you doing, man? How are you doing leaving it a little bit? It's going good, mate. It's going good. Hope your fright is going awesome as well And cashier i'm going to try and get another shiny that growl us was not part of the outbreak Good luck with it. Good luck No, what's your opinion on evolving shiny chancy? I'm not sure I should um Yeah, I Maybe keep it as chancey Yeah, keep it as chancey. I would say but oh let me bet you will get a shiny at 60 Kashi it's going to be 62 60 would be the one is the mind jr The the sign mind jr was my first shiny in these games So is that the sign that this is going to be the one? It's like You've grinded so much Like my game has a brain and it's thinking to me. It's got feeling. It's got motion And it's not it's like it's now it's time. Here's a sign from from us that we're telling you now That this time you are going to get the shiny rufflet. It is going to happen 59 Richard just started a shiny hunt really and got it after three resets nice congrats. You'll get it at 69 Yeah, Paul it's a typical it would happen then wouldn't it yeah And happy I know how you doing. Hope you're well still at it still gone I know I can't believe it right It's land Happy we have got a shiny cadaver though for our troubles, which is quite nice One of these cadavers was just popped up as a shiny Randomly so that was quite that was like a little bonus So it's not being like a massively unsuccessful shiny hunt tonight But in regards to the rufflet it has been super super unsuccessful Mythy Mike, how are you doing? I have to we're gonna have to go chomp this one as well Have I catch all pokemon to make the ausis event or is it enough to see every pokemon? I think you've got to catch them got to catch them, but you don't need to do the research levels Just catch them have you ever find a random shiny without a shiny hunt and I have um Did I just hear the shiny jingle Or was that just the cadaver here that it's just like trolling us Has that sprayer worn off? Yeah, I have like I've had a few and I've just been like Going around the Hsu region like flying around or going somewhere and it's just been a random shiny So I've had a few of those which has been nice Okay, we can't afford to get hit by anything else anymore And that before it's pretty sweet and pretty interesting shiny hunting in this game once you're done You'll have a you'll have a blast with it. Honestly, once you start doing it, you'll have a lot of fun with it Mix up how you do and hope you're well. Thanks for joining us tonight. I hope you're having a great Friday friend I think we're gonna have to honeycomb. I want to say I heard a shiny jingle, but again, I could just be hearing things Definitely not this one Ah every time every time Here go chomp go Cadaver got no no chill at all 100% And jk and what was your first shiny like in this game or like ever?

No shinies this time around though Let's just yeah, let's just do the the go chomp Where is it? Where is it? How come it's so far away? It wouldn't let me even attack it I'm so conscious as well because I'm like solo health at this point Do you think you should go for burg my outbreak? I think you should go for it. Yeah go for it Shiny, uh, it's you and avalak would be nice. Uh, that's it. That is it. Okay Right, no shiny that time around And this is number 60 Right, and I think friends this will be the last one for the stream tonight I think Can we get it on this last one? Darkrai is my favorite to the point but as my background on my phone Darkrai is a cool park one Right, let's see Last time last pack magic This time for sure Gabe Time to lob to switch out the window Ah, you know how I'm feeling Evelyn got a 69 Oh, it's not even there Not even there. That's a sign. It's a sign if we've ever seen one Oh Roughlet is just not gonna happen Or is it is it is it just gonna be for this moment?

I gotta do more work Gabe, thank you so much for the this super generous super chat. I really appreciate it. Come on birds I agree with you. Where are these birds and what are they doing? Perseverment Come on the birds, right? Let's see Um, w9 do you have youtube full time? No, no I I have like a proper like nine to five day job that I do Um, I wish a youtube full time. That'd be so much fun. That'd be great. I would love that I'd love it. So no, I have to fit it in around actual like work Which is uh, it's difficult sometimes trying to keep up with like doing content Especially when you got a new game out because like the idea is to try and and try and get like guides it Quick because if you don't you kind of miss the ball and like everyone else gets them up And then you put them up and it's like it's kind of there's no traction then so it's it's it is hard It is really hard, but I really enjoy it. I really enjoy it I enjoy kind of learning about like trying to just put better content out all the time and I feel like We are making like improve like I'm making improvements with my content. I still think I've got a long way to go, but Yeah It'd be nice to do it full time for sure, but come on shinies Appear just this once just for me right now. Come on. Please if whatever gonna appear appear tonight prove that you are you exist Because right now I really don't believe that there is anything like shiny bravery does not exist. It's a myth It's fan made art and everyone's been trolling That's all it is That's it. I think that's it Unless you are shiny, it's not gonna happen M doing I thank you so much really appreciate that mate. I hope so. I hope so. We'll keep going We'll keep going And it's over. It's over. It's over 60 60. What is going on? What is going on? What is actually happening with this?

Cadabra Right friends. I think that is gonna wrap it up for tonight 60 and no good. I cannot believe this. Sorry. We didn't get it. We'll be back on the next one We'll try again. We'll try again. I wonder how many it is Matthew called it 69 a that's the one that's an average of 600 rufflets. That is absolutely that is nuts That is absolutely nuts and with a warning 158 chance Now Evelyn I got a shoot off.  Um How about you go back twice in one go? I don't know. I don't know if it would even work But we'll be back on Monday friends. We'll be back on Monday. I appreciate everyone for coming out tonight That's been a lot of fun this stream tonight.

Ladies and gentlemen the railroad hour and here comes our star-studded show train Tonight the Association of American Railroads presents the new Lawrence and Lee musical version of The Necklace starring Gordon McRae And his brilliant young guest Dorothy Warren shows Our choir is under the direction of Norman Lubeau and our music is prepared and conducted by Carmen dragon Yes tonight another world premiere is brought to you by the American Railroad The same railroads that bring you most of the food you eat the clothes you wear the fuel you burn and all the other things you use in your daily life And now here is our star Thank you Marvin Miller and good evening ladies and gentlemen the music of the immortal Tésar front is the setting for tonight's play and Equally immortal tale by Guido Mopasson Imagine yourself in the Paris of gaslight and horse-drawn carriages Dorothy Warren shoulder's material I am her husband the ill-fated Pierre in the necklace What's the matter Matilde are you unhappy with your husband? Oh, he's good to me But who Pierre is just a clerk in the Ministry of Education I know how I long for high ceilings and tapestries Like these Matilde I shouldn't have come to see you Catherine It only makes going back to our dingy life all the harder Remember Matilde if there's ever anything I can do for you. Oh, you're a good friend Goodbye Catherine Darling what's wrong? Why are you crying? Why? Look at it read what it says into a mass ball. Oh, it'll be very exclusive only a few of them went to the clerk Matilde I won't go and look like a poor relative Well, how much will it cost a suitable guy? Oh 400 Frank so much it must be stylish Will it make you very happy Matilde? Oh, I shall be the happiest woman Uncover my eyes now. Yes. Yes, you may look at me now. Oh This cannot be Matilde was out wife of that poor clerk in the Ministry of Education It's a pretty dressy isn't it? You must be a princess a queen No No, I look poor I've got to have some jewels here. Will you pluck them from the diamond tree in the public park? I know where I can get some jewels. I'll be back in an hour Would you do me a great favor? Why of course?  No look for them on the floor of the cab in the cushions driver Touching the net because I came down this viral staircase. They aren't here Matilde the jewels are gone. We'll return for the second act of the necklace in just a moment You know when you come right down to it few people in the United States have a greater stake in the continued health and strength of America's railroads than you who own automobiles. I'm afraid I don't quite understand What did the railroads got to do with my enjoyment of my car? Well to begin with your car could not have been built without railroad For to build automobiles the way they are built in America takes the low-cost mass Transportation of raw materials and parts which only railroads can provide and the same kind of thing is true of the highways you drive on I can see that all right But I've got my car and the highways I use are already built So what can the railroads do to help me enjoy driving my car now railroads have a lot to do with that too Because they take the vast bulk of America's freight traffic and move it on their own highways of steel Just imagine what things would be like on the public highways if the freight traffic that now moves on the railroad Had to be carried on the roads on which you drive heaven forbid. I never thought of that You can bet I'm in favor of keeping box cars on the railroads where they belong Yes, the railroads mean a lot to you as a car owner and the more the nation's freight is moved on the privately owned Steel highways of the railroads the less will be the wear and tear to the public highways The lower will be the cost to you of building and maintaining those highways and the greater will be your satisfaction and safety Every time you use your car The necklace set to the majestic music of César Franck Starring Gordon Macrae as Pierre and Dorothy while in shoulders Matilde with Mary Dean as Caterine The dawn was gray across the rooftops as I retraced every step we had walked Every inch of the ballroom the staircase the cracks in the pavement The gutters along curb stones, but I came back to my wife empty-handed I shall go to Catherine and tell her what happened rich. She has everything it won't matter to her No, she gave the necklace to you in friendship in confidence. We must replace Madame has the true eye for beauty This necklace is our prize in my entire store. There is not such a necklace. I Think it is identical even the clasp is the same What is the price of this diamond necklace please these necklaces a great bargain monsieur 36,000 frown How can we raise 36,000 francs with a fortune Pierre We can sell the furniture for a good price. Oh, shall we live in bear room then? I'll borrow the rest we'll mortgage everything. We'll be in debt for years We have no choice my sweet my word my signature is honored everywhere. I am not a cheat If I have nothing else, I am an honest man and for your honesty you are willing to pay such a price It may be all that is left to me my honesty, but I cannot change Even if it means selling our very souls to the moneylenders Matilda. We must do the honest Catherine Thank you for letting me borrow the necklace. You should have returned it sooner, but tilled. I might have needed it Did your friend notice she didn't even open the case Good good Now I have found a very reasonable room Matilda I shall have to get some work to do at night and bookkeeping or copying You can do laundry perhaps or housework a few days a week Oh Pierre I was born for better things How many people are permitted to live the lives they were born for?   I want music to make me feel beautiful even if I cannot look beautiful Dance with me Pierre. I have forgotten how there was only one dance for us One glorious masquerade and there might have been so many 22 from my wife is sleeping. Well, it will seem strange not to be coming here any longer You have been our most regular caller for many years Let me think you made your loan when my father had the business. I believe that is correct My father has been dead for 11 years And I have been dead for 14 But I do not understand a bad joke my friend For 14 years, I have owed you money You and the score of others But it is all paid back now 36,000 francs and as much again an interest but it's paid And now I am resurrected from the dead. You are an honest man Thank you, sir Thank you humbly Well, good night. Remember me to your wife Or I think you gave me one franc too much Hey, this coin is yours Mine? Good night, monsieur Lois-Elle This coin is mine Mathilde. What is it? What's here? Look, this franc is ours ours, Mathilde, to spend as we like We have one franc, one franc, that's our very own, Mathilde Or shall we spend it? Or if we have one franc for all of it We are too old to dance, Mathilde And I shall buy flowers Flowers were my charming wife Pierre, oh Pierre Oh, I don't believe I know you I know you 14 years have hardly changed you at all Dear lord, can it be, Mathilde? Yes And this is my husband Does she know Mathilde? No, what should I know? Because of your necklace My wife is old before her time And I am staring into the grave I don't understand You returned my necklace A duplicate, Catherine I lost the jewels you gave me My husband and I have slaved for 14 years To pay for the accident of one tragic night Oh, my poor friends The necklace you borrowed, Mathilde It was made of paste What? Worth at the most a few hundred francs In just a moment Our thanks too to Mary Dean, Byron Cain And all the members of our company The song Masquerade was composed by John Jacob Loeb and Paul Francis Webster The music for the necklace was taken from the great themes of Cesar Franck's D Minor Symphony The libretto and lyrics were by Lawrence and Lee The railroad hours brought to you each week at the same time by the American Railroads Marvin These days, members of the American Legion Men who have done so much in war and in peace to help build a stronger, better, more secure America Are making plans to attend their national convention in New York City at the end of August And the Legionnaires who will have the most fun are those who will travel to the convention by train They're going to bypass the strain of long, hard driving on crowded highways They're going to relax in air-conditioned comfort in their hotels on wheels and arrive at the convention rested and ready for the time of their lives And that's a mighty good idea when you and your family take a vacation Travel the easy, safe way by train You'll be glad you did Thank you Marvin And now dear friends, here again this lovely Dorothy Warren show And Dorothy, did you enjoy singing the melodies of Cesar Franck's great D Minor Symphony? It was a thrilling experience, Gordon And I hope all our railroad and our friends enjoy these adventures into the realm of symphonic music too Well, you might say we're trying to bring you a brand new art form giving famous toys a new voice with great music What's our musical story next week, Gordon? Well, Dorothy, we have a complete change of pace It's called the Love Song and our own maestro, Carmen Dragon has written a title melody in three-quarter time which will set your heart singing of good old Vienna That sounds wonderful So we will be meeting on the profit next Monday, eh? Well, it's a date, Dorothy All aboard! Folks, it looks as though we're ready to pull out and so until next Monday night and the railroad hour premiere of Love Song this is Gordon Macrae saying, Goodbye Gordon Macrae can be seen starring in Warner Brothers About Faith Our choir is out of the direction of Norman Lubbock and our music is prepared and conducted by Carmen Dragon This is Marvin Miller saying goodbye until next week for the American Railroad Now stay tuned for your Monday night of music on NBC The preceding was transcribed Next, Barbara Gibson stars on The Telephone Hour on NBC


But all right, let's get into this next topic and the video no longer has sound so we can't play the clip But what this clip is or what this content is really let's start with this subject Can people fall off and if so, what does it really mean to fall off in the clip? DC on fly was a comedian Artist dancer all of those things extraordinary Renaissance modern day Renaissance man He's the he's the hood Sammy Davis, and he's a hood. It's a Sammy Davis junior. Yeah, Sammy Davis junior He's the hood Jamie Fox.   All right, five more years from now when I'm like, I think he would be like mid-30s or whatever I don't want to be in front of y'all. All right. I got kids. I got a life I'm trying to become the behind the scene business man Mm-hmm. And what he was alluding to is something that I agree with which is Yo, man, a lot of this fall in my shit is just perception And a lot of this perception of course is based on what the media has going on So if you just don't see me no more, I fell off That's what most people are really just defining it by but I realized early on I will be watching TMZ the show And I'll be seeing like some Old like I don't know actor or something and they'll be in some fancy store on Rodeo Drive and Actor actors look like they doing good in life. And I was like, dang, bro Like and I'll ask my dad or grandma about them.     You can't like personally you can't follow these niggas idea of your life falling off or not because they really don't know when you're on That's true. Yeah, I think of the thing.  Yeah, so dictating your life by anything Based on what the public thinks you probably gonna be messed up anyway, but so how can we care about?  Hey August 12th myself Sean and Jerry McKee will be hosting a live event in Atlanta We'll be sharing some of our best marketing Branding and content strategies that we haven't really been able to put out anywhere else So if you want a reason to come to Atlanta or if you're in Atlanta But if you just want to dapple sup and see if we real go and get your tickets at no labels necessary calm Or check the link in the description if you're watching this on YouTube We're only doing 60 tickets like a hard 60 tickets So you want to make sure that you're one of those 60 once again no labels necessary calm or check the link in the description And we'll see you there. That's why they need entertainings and to put that they taxes off man I believe that so I can be like damn, but he was only making 60k a year when this movie was top of the charts You know I'm saying I want to see that man I want to see that information line up like I think Chris Tucker said he got like 5k off of Friday. Yeah I'm saying hit movie. Well, that was a cold hit at first right cold head But again perception like if you're a super fan of Friday like early on in that era. Yeah, you're just seeing this and it's big in your community You think this and they go on.  This is crazy about art bro.  But then to your point like it's a lot. What if I'm better off financially? What if I never cared about mainstream attention, right?  Yeah You know, can I say that Malcolm or is no longer as popular as he was and what was that 2016 2017? Yeah, 100% can I say that Malcolm or is falling off? No, right? You know I'm saying because the last I check he still streams very well You know I'm saying he's still making money. I mean, there are lots of artists who come and go in that and I think was interesting Is that underrated any story? Don't Malcolm or anything. We need to interview Malcolm or something. Hmm. I mean No, I ain't got nothing details man. I'm not a huge fan of music, but I want to understand. I want to hear the details Yeah, I remember Yeah, you're right. The story will be interesting. Yeah, the story will be interesting.  I keep it going man. You're an inspiration to somebody not me somebody But but like I think The perception of falling off doesn't hold as much weight as it used to be right because being saying somebody fell off in like 2000s something like that Was was detrimental because there was no way for us the public to verify now.   What go look at his Instagram I don't know man. He just posted a picture 30 minutes ago. That's you got a million likes go to Spotify I don't know man.  I think I just fell off. Oh damn Go on about your day, you know saying no way to really really case it out and see see what happened to him and out So I think that there are artists that we are getting to see enough artists who don't always live underneath the mainstream son To show us that hey being under the mainstream light doesn't necessarily mean that I'm on right to your point We've seen lots of celebrities and big artists in the limelight.      Anyway, I only kept your mind cuz you were in front of me I have a choice. Yeah, I have a choice.  That's right. It's a personal thing.  You know what I'm saying? So it'll be that right like they'll kind of fall off based on like just their own goals Or to your other point, they didn't do the work to build a core fan base on well Cuz I don't get me wrong.  Don't get me wrong. Anyway, um Slim Jesus He never like fully got on for me. So I don't you know what I mean? I can't I can't speak on Let me look up something real quick if I say the next one I imagine you found the data that you were looking for. No, I was about to unfairly sell artists fall off But my service is terrible here. Who was the artist that you know, I don't I don't want to say No, bro, you gotta put it out there. So then we can discuss how it might have been that you Incorrectly thought this artist fellow. I was gonna say because I just know I'm wrong But I was gonna say Matt ox and block boy JB But I know but I just feel like I said once again people listening my phone does not currently have service Is where you on Sean's basement? Oh, that's that's okay. No. Oh, yeah Well, we we said Matt ox. Yeah So I want to see which our perception would be of Matt ox falling off. Okay a 56 He has a hundred fifty six thousand monthly listeners. So you would consider just if we're going off a Spotify stream alone Because of course we talked about how the other parts of life might not have fell off Would you consider that a follow? No, I wouldn't okay Well, that's all I said, man I was gonna I ain't wouldn't throw him out there because I can look the numbers that fly a black boy probably at least two million Oh, wait, that's the wrong page. Oh, I was like, damn. That's a hard fall Like you don't even got a spot of my account number, bro. How did I spell it wrong? Oh, you put a k It's just two C's That's what I thought I did. Oh, you got a kota. Oh, but then the page right here Oh, there you go. Okay. Oh, it's only one. Okay.  It worked What what lack of information have you received that might have allowed you to receive that They could have fall off See what I was about to say is gonna prove your point But I'm just gonna leave it because this is what I had at first I was about to say the only time I ever hear about block boy jb Is usually around his personal opinion around things and not music But then I know the argument could be like well if we care so much about his personal opinion on things Kendrick met argument He hasn't fallen off because we don't care about the opinions of people that have they have fallen off Which is a fair critique I hear from everybody. You know what I'm saying that makes that um And I was going to say the same thing for my ox, but then what Was about to make me change my mind is there's a very reputable Like publication youtube channel that I follow that talks about like rising underground rappers and like people in like that world And I just did an interview with him interview went really good. You know what I'm saying like the feedback on it was great People was talking about so that that I can't even say you know what I'm saying He fell off because of gourmet's your point His core audience that core demographic over there still cares about it. He still cares about it, man It's like yeah, I wouldn't have thought of either those two Yeah, man, I know we had to use me as a live example for you know But it's perfect, you know, it's like because we all are So we might not use that word fall off because you might not be the person who wants to like throw that out there But even like in your mind personally, you might think like what happened to that person I haven't seen him in a minute and they could be a lot moving and shaking doing just fine Matt I actually would have weirdly enough would have probably expected Matt Thought that less about Matt than I would have about block boy JB Okay, he was so he came up in the niche in the group Right, exactly because he was already strong niche and a niche and you know had a specific group that wasn't necessarily commercial Street tends to like get kind of Really fast You're commercial and successful Well, at least commercial street, right? Yeah, and or you're not really winning at all. Yeah, so but it's crazy Yeah, which I didn't buy I still didn't think black boy JB if all of but like that's a Harder one to sustain in my opinion. Yeah, I mean he is living off hits too, bro I forgot he got a good like and that's other thing too about the five things like you can get a good string of hits before you do Decline you good He is living man. I saw that matter man. We living good another day above ground Last month saw that man. He's trying to convince us that the xbox is better than the play session You know what I'm saying? I just I can't get with that. That was the thing for a minute though There was a period of time where most people did think xbox was better than play session Like we're talking about maybe Like the mid 2000.  There was No, bro, the japanese gotta figure it out man To these controllers and there's haptic feedback man Oh I I pull it up a designer right here because I know a lot of people feel he fell off but he's getting 5.2 You know with 5.5 million monthly listeners, but people still care about his music now Again, even if music is like about your primary songs Your top song Is that something that we want to look into deeper when it comes into a fall-off conversation? Like this is just us investigating and musing through where you could Finding a way that you can't claim somebody fell off successfully It's a true haters conversation How can I effectively?  I think I got away. Yeah I was gonna play devil's advocate. I would say the recent music isn't where It's kept them in the top all the block boy JB's biggest hits was from like four or five years ago And then who just showed designer designer same thing all his all those songs and his top That's holding that for like three or four years ago. They're all massive songs. So it makes sense that Two to three million people a month was the only listening to these songs. You know what I'm saying? So if I was going for the hating narrative, that's what I would say It's like your recent stuff ain't really hitting like your old stuff. Yeah, man That would be considered fall-off that That's the greatest argument for saying I fall off I think it's the argument most people will lean on how I don't see you a lot and your new music ain't hitting And we don't care about it as much It's really a we don't care though Yeah, because there'll be plenty of people who they might not get that perception the music could be even better That's true That's the weird part about it. It's such a media attention and crowd perception thing when it comes to art forms period And you know that might suck for many artists to hear but it's like on the capturing value from a business standpoint It's all based on Other people thinking it's good even though this core of art is not supposed to be about other people thinking it's good necessarily Yeah, that's what I said. That's what's so crazy about it, bro Like people can literally change the value of your art in the drop of a dime, bro like we like we see it with viral moments and you know and Council campaigns, bro. Just your entire value can be changed like this. You know what I'm saying? She's crazy. She's crazy.   I was listening to blockboard jv the other day You know what I'm saying? Use it as motivation Yeah This is funny as part of me This is a matter of being on the boat like smell that man, you know, I pull what you brought what you count on fill up Oh, thank you. I needed that. It's the spark. I needed the k and looking for motivation Yeah, the ooh Going back to the studio right now


Hi everyone, I hope you can hear me in the end, welcome.  I just want to present you the idea of finalizing CPUs. So just a little bit about Percona, probably already heard these out there. I'm not going to stick about it. A little bit about me. I'm not going to keep bragging about myself here as well. I'm a support engineer from Percona. And a few days ago, it came an interesting case for support. Common one, most of you that deals with software already got it. It's your CPU is burning. Something is completely taken over. And in case of a database, you can't do Q minus 9, of course. You want to keep your services running. So the idea of this talk is to present how we support investigated this problem. How we attacked and identified the issue using flame graphs. Also in the end, I'm going to talk a little bit about cold graphs, which is another approach. And I explain details a little bit. So first, this slide is a homonage for Brandon, Brandon Greg. I'm not sure if all of you heard about it, about him. He was the guru, the mentor of flame graphs. Me, I'm just a padawan here. I'm just summarizing the things. But his content, it's much more broad than what I'm going to show here. So what are flame graphs? The best way to define flame graphs is using the words of the creator. So basic flame graphs are a way to visualize the profiled software. And in this way, we can quickly identify what are the threads running, what code paths are running on the CPU. So saying that, let's be a little bit more specific. And what is a code path? Most of you are aware of. This is a really simple code. Most of you saw it on universities or doing your work. Main function, some functions that are called during the process. And this will lead us to call chains. So what are call chains? Call chains are possible ways that the functions can work based on the behavior of the user or the behavior of the database. So in this example that I showed before, which is like possible library software, what we are doing, getting book lists, getting the book and the outer, or the editorial, or getting a print, whatever. These are possible call chains that can happen of your tree. Of course that we are talking when the software is running fine, not when he has a bug and it crashes in the middle. Saying that, we have the possible call chains. What do we do? So we profile it. So what is profiling? Profiling is a way of capturing metrics for a constant period of time. And then we can aggregate and combine and analyze it later. So there are several ways of profiling. Most of you already use it without knowing the name. Raise your hand who never got the issue from the developer that look, my credit is slow. What do you do?  This is profiling as well. And later you use some tool that you want, PT query, just, grep, whatever. You aggregate the queries, identify the ones that are using more roles, consuming more time. And then you use the metric that you want. So this is a profiling, a SQL profiling. In this case, I want to profile stack traces and code paths. And for it, to analyze the burning phase, we are going to use Perf. Perf is widely used on Linux. I think most of the installations comes by default with Perf. It's a really simple install and you can install it. So with three, one, two, three simple commands, you can create the SVG file. And what Perf records do, minus A means that we are going to profile all the CPUs and minus G, we are going to capture call graphs or stack trace, minus F99 means the frequency. So we are profiling the CPUs at 99 hertz. And minus P, this is the little trick so you don't have to do PS and get the PID every time. If you're running a single instance, of course, if you have multiple ones, then this is not going to work. And we are going to profile this for one minute. We are going to create data for one minute. After that, we are going to make this machine readable, using Perf script and sending it through the output. And finally, using the tool provided by a random, we are going to create the flame graphs. Now, let me show you the flame graphs itself. So this is a flame graph. Basically, this is the data that we profiled using Perf and after creating the SVG. So this is interactive. So you can zoom in and zoom out. I'm going to show you for the analysis. It's a little bit... So how do we identify? How do we work with this bunch of colors and data? So you have the y-axis and the x-axis. And when we are analyzing on the vertical thing, you are going to see several stack trace. We have more above, but I'm not going in details. Let's suppose this is the last one. So the last one is the one that is current on the CPU and the other ones are its ancestors. So the best way to read is bottom up. So because I profiled my SQL D process... Sorry, guys, you may not see, but we can see that 100% of the CPU time was spent on my SQL D. Why? Because we were profiling only my SQL D. Now, when we look on the x-axis, the order from left to right, it doesn't matter. Like, this has no logical order of time. It's only sorted in an alphabetical order. And why? To maximize the aggregation. That's it. There is no more meaning from left to right. But when we are talking about the size, the width of these boxes, this is what matters and this is what we are going to analyze. So as larger becomes the box, more CPU was spent on this process. And here comes the good thing. This was based on a real case. So if we start, my SQL D is using 100%, but when we come to this outer table, we can see that 54% of the sample that we got was spent on outer table, which is interesting. So when we go deep and we zoom in, we can see that now we have only the stack trace. For it, we have the functions that my SQL is calling. And these bars start to be constant. And we see copying data, insert on secondary index. And now we see we are spending a lot of time making foreign constraints. After that, we are seeing freeze on that dictionary. And this requires a little bit of understanding the code, but this function means that we try to acquire the lock here, but we couldn't, so the process is spinning. So it's waiting. And after investigating, we collected some interesting data and identified that because we are checking foreign constraints and the database of this customer had a small table open cache. We saw several tables being open and closed. So this involves has a high cost for my SQL. Our proposal was increasing table open cache. And with that, we could reduce the size of this. And it was smaller than the CPU, not that stopped burning. This is like a common name. But we made this whole process more friendly for the CPU and the database could go on more smoothly. So this is the real importance that we evaluate for flame graphs. So moving on, I'm going to talk a bit about code graphs. So what is code graph? Basically is what we call off-CPU analysis. So if the previous flame graph was analyzing and identifying what was running on the CPU, code off-CPU analysis and code graphs identifies what is making the thread wait to be executed. So we have the both sides. And in the end, I'm going to talk how do we marriage them. So off-CPU analysis is where we are spending time waiting for things. As we can see on this graph, flame graphs are responsible for these two things. And with off-CPU analysis, we can identify why your thread is waiting. If the thread is waiting for disk, if the thread is waiting for disk network, or in case of MySQL, we know that there are several locks. If the default isolation level is repeatable read, if you are inserting or looping data, you have the infamous gap lock. So this might make the thread wait. And this is part of the off-CPU analysis. How do we do it? This is made with BCC tools. So for kernels that are newer than 4.1, you can just install it. It comes already with the operating system. I just pasted, for my opinion, the most true common ones, Red Hat, Santos version, just a Jung install, or Ubuntu, Debian, the APT get install, BCC tools, and then it's going to install it for you. Our way to validate, just check if this directory has the tools. And you are going to see if you are more curious about hundreds of scripts. You can do profiling with BCC tools for disk latency, network, every sort of things. This would take a life to learn. There are much better people than me about it. But the one that I want to focus now is the off-CPU time. So with off-CPU time, the minus D option will put a delimiter. This is for the parsing of the stack trace. F is to make the stack trace folded. Minus P, again, is for identify the PID of the process. And we are going to collect for 30 seconds. The same idea. We are going to produce the stacks. And here we can use the tools from Brandon again to create the SVG files. So let me quickly show to you. So this is the code graphs. And this is extracted from my SQL that I just put it up. And it was idle. There were no queries running on it. Then I run a test with the classic sysbench, of course. And this is what is happening when the system starts to get saturated. And as we can see here, we are spending a lot of time handling connections. And this is waiting for a read or write on the IO socket. But the curious thing, and I did this on purpose, my SQL I put very limited resources on a single core virtual machine is that I was opening and closing connections for every single thing during my workload. One proposal here after we analyze it, maybe using connection pool on the application or use thread pooling on my SQL side to reduce the amount of time spent opening connections. And to resume, of course, these, not only these, but the flame graphs, they are absolute numbers. So it's interesting when you collect both. And on this way, you have the 100% picture of what the threads are doing and waiting, and then you can correlate everything. Because just taking a look at this, you can't infer if your SQL is suffering or not. So it's good to have both sides of the story, the running one and the blockade one. That's it. That's it. If you have any questions, I am available. Sorry for being short. I hope you got the idea. We are going to talk more about this per quant alive.  You'll be really glad to answer all your questions. Thank you. Okay, so if someone has questions, I am available. Yes. It looks very impressive. I was surprised that it was readable. The calls were in the stack. Is that, it doesn't look like it did any special compile? No. Can you repeat the question? Ah, okay. Sorry. So his question was if I did anything special to MySQL to analyze the code paths. For the MySQL community version, there is a package for RPMs, the debug package, which install the symbols. So like you just need to, if you do the bundle installation, it will come everything. So you don't need to compile anything special to analyze it. Yeah. Like no magic. Just another RPM of the bundle. Another thing that I usually do, I get on GitHub of MySQL, for example. I have on my repository. Then I go to the search code and open the function and I don't know. And the function is really well documented on the header. It's really easy to... That's what I was saying. But my question was more actually, I mean, most of my time I'm working with Oracle Postgres. And I know Oracle deliberately obscures their function so people can't unpick what they're doing. I really dislike about Oracle, but that's how it works. But actually, a lot of the time I'm working with Postgres and also I'm getting MariaDB as the same name convention. Is that right? I'm not sure because Maria on recent versions of the left in MySQL is going through the right. Like they are not... But in the past, the functions were across. Like most 99% nowadays they are really starting to differ. I can check for you, but for Postgres, I don't have... Sorry. It was blocked and do not... You only get the name of the function. Sorry? So Postgres is running and then it does something that makes it block. It becomes obviously viewer. Yes. But what you show I think is only the function names, function that's happening. Is there some way to actually see which line or area of the function that this... No, then you have to investigate the source code and like for go to the specific line you can use GDB, but then this is like... GDB is attached to the process and then you can literally dive into the codes and every single line of... But this brings a lot of overhead, so we don't use on production. But it's an option. If you don't have shell access to the... Is it possible to do anything from the... No, because these are... You need the libraries behind it. Well, I think that's it. Thank you guys.


like you, the people you represent, who cherish ethnic heritage, values of family and neighborhood, make sure that the American people win this one. We live up to, or leave it up to the special interests, I should say, in Washington. That's the last we'll hear about past experience in Washington. We're writing the epitaph. We have to make our voices loud and clear and make them heard in Washington. I think America wants tax fairness once and now. He made me think when I was talking about the epitaph here that some years ago when I was governor of California, I was on a trip, took me to Casual Rock in Ireland for a second half to correct it, the first drops. Irish guards were showing us through the old ruins of the cathedral and then the old ancient ceremony on the Casual Rock. And he took us to one tomb and there, strived on his tomb, it was this epitaph. Remember me as you passed by. Whereas, as you are, so once was I. But as I am, you too will be. So be content to follow me. I had proven too much for some Irish men who were scratched underneath. To follow you, I am content. I wish I knew which way you went. Mr. President, the spokesman for the Hossages says that the American people should raise hell to get Israel to release those prisoners. He said that this morning. I'm not going to comment on that or anything else. I only know that none of us, any kind, can afford to pay off terrorists for the crimes that they're committing because they'll only need them one time. Would that be a payoff, sir, if Israel releases the prisoners? I have commented several times, Mr. President. Israel has always intended to release them to make that very clear. The linkage that is tied to our Hossages is something to temperature it down. Well, sir, David Stockman says that... I've only got a few minutes to eat spaghetti. Sir, David Stockman says... I know that's what you all came in for, you're hoping I'll spill it. No, not that, sir. David Stockman says that raising taxes is the only fiscal responsible way to go. He didn't say it. We know what he said, and the story is fallacious. Well, he said... Well, the time said, sir, that he said that some of the people in the administration on Capitol Hill have been using these phony numbers that probably ought to be in jail. No, we have the speech. We know exactly what he said. And this has been a definite deliberation. I'm not going to answer any more questions.  Sir, as they always used to say, maybe just one more about the linkage of the 7 to the 39. Conwell also said he thought that was a terrible mistake to link the 7 Hossages to the 39. I don't think anything that attempts to get people back using kidnaps by thugs and murderers and barbarians is long to do. We're going to do everything we can to get all of them back to their children that way. Are you making a problem? Are you making a problem? I'm not going to speculate. You know me, I'm superstitious. I never talk about it. No hitters are superstitious. But you won't make a deal. Is that it? You won't make a deal? No, we won't. That's more of a question. Look, I'm going to eat the spaghetti here. And I'm asking Jim Thompson. I'm asking Governor Jim Thompson if by executive order he will declare because this isn't working lunch, I understand? We're working? It's an answer to the wrong question. We're not having lunch. I'm going to ask him to declare that it's all right to talk with your mouth full. That's right. You won't ask the Israelis. That's the end of the photo op. I'm sorry. That's the end of it. The President says no more questions. So he's going to go right out and show us. His current writing will go right out. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. It's all right. I just want to say I really meant that now that we're on one last minute. Any questions or anything with regard to that pack of program I'm going to be talking about. Since the lobby is in Moscow surrounded the capital is dug in people and I have a reception about this. Is she the seller, don't you think? The executive salary is more than $100,000 a year and he has written to tell me that he is willing to come back and testify he legally has taken advantage of the factors of the tax law that his tax on his more than $100,000 salary is less than his secretary and he has volunteered to come back. He says that isn't right and he says he wants to come back. He's willing to testify as to how it was done and all done within the president existing with us and why they shouldn't be allowed. Only in America something like that. He knows that he's going to have to be the only precarious. You need some more letters like that Mr. President? You need some more letters like that? Why did you wait so long? I got one in the first 100 with my friend. We made all his money when it was 90% He said one of the people, the only letter I got that said you're not taxing us enough to top and I said oh if you give me 10,000 more letters like that I'll be glad to entertain you but I'll send you a copy. There aren't many out there folks but I had that unhappy experience when I was in Hollywood They were throwing around all that stage money One time it was 90% And you made a letter It's so busy that I wasn't able to find out until it's April that they've been on 13 days Mr. President, a socks man has wanted you to create a couch for the Philippine Islands and then we'll call him another poet Oh there's a peeping guy I prefer to remember that When I was broadcasting the house When they set a record that it's never been even since When the only mathematical chance they have to win the pen Last 21 games of the season And they did it Oh my king The letter down is so great It's the only law that says In the 64 straight But you knew what it was That it was the letter down That you take the bill That's what happened I got a group of loudspeakers You asked me I got a group of loudspeakers So No You had a million set Eight stations All broadcast in the same getting The cat was broadcasting You had a lot of coverage And what you used to do A lot was The wooden leaf town with And then the socks When they came out And just stayed in Chicago To do the whole game Yes, all night Then he kind of I saw my operator And the other side of the line He was getting the telegraph And that dean came out of his wind up And started getting the plate And just then he had it You know I had a ball on the way to the plate So I had him found it off And I go Early and he just Like this As I say with seven or eight other guys Broadcasting the same game If I say we've had mechanical difficulties We'll play some music until I lose The entire audience So I just decided to have him Follow another one And he followed one That just missed being a whole long time And I described the two kids My third base to kind of fight over The basement all the time And he followed one over there And this kept going on until now I'm beginning to really have to say Or suspect that I've been inventing all of them Curly started typing I started another ball And I started to jiggle Like an hour to get it out He said, you're just pumped out of the first ball Today is our thing What does it recognize? And he said, look, are there any records about this? Has anyone ever stated to play Get that one? I don't think there are any records One game winning streak That's not only a record Six, seven Seven, eight, five We're trying to do this We're trying to encourage New Mexico New Mexico Are you ready for what? Yes, sir This is the young man I told you about In the public conversation My high school My high school You're correct Yeah, we're real proud of you. I'm proud of the hero in the line. Yeah, we're proud of you. How are you? Here's the cook. Here's his audience mother. Here's the cook. Here's the whole head. Here's the whole head. Here's the whole head. Here's the whole head. Good job. Thank you very much. Have a good summer. The President is going to be leaving now. We're going to stay back and we're going to escort us. No pay for two wings.


Well, how else might we build smarter, better deep learning systems that are more general? And three of the methods, one of which we've seen self-supervision and two we haven't, continual learning and maybe curiosity, seem like ways to go beyond the simple supervised learning paradigm that dominates most of deep learning. Now, we've seen self-supervision as being critical. Auto-encoders, take an image, put it into some hidden state, reconstruct it, maybe by putting a noise, right? We saw a variety of auto-encoders. We saw language models. Given a sequence of words, predict the next word. Given a set of words, mask them, predict the next, pick the masked words. All of these allow us to have lots of data with no labels, where we still learn useful things from the data, which we can then generalize and apply to small labeled sets, right? And this has really been the key to lots of the gains in the last few years in deep learning. Well, it'd be nice if we could combine that with something where we keep learning as we see more and more different problems. And unfortunately, neural nets suffer from catastrophic forgetting. It's been known since the 80s that if you train a neural net to learn the single-digit times tables, 3 times 4, 7 times 9, and then you train it on 12 times 14, and you go back and look at the earlier ones, it's forgotten what it learned before. If you think about what gradient descent does, gradient descent moves you toward the current thing which you're being trained on, therefore necessarily forgetting the first things you were trained on. Humans are pretty good. When we learn a new fact, when we learn a new language, we don't immediately completely forget the first language we learned. Now, a little bit, we get some degradation, some interference, but mostly we're pretty good at learning a second language without forgetting the first one. And by the time we learn the third or fourth language, we're getting better at it. Now, how might we implement this sort of learning in an artificial neural net, a deep learning system? People have tried a bunch of methods and this is still an open problem for you to work on. One is as you're seeing new observations, new input output, x's and y's, add more neurons so that if you learn more and more, maybe you just put more and more neurons, don't change the existing ones too much because the new ones can learn the new facts. Okay? Another way to do that is use regularization. I've listed a couple of times. We've seen versions of this, but you could say I want to learn to fit the new xy pairs without changing the weights too much. So I'm going to regularize the weights that they stay sort of like they were before so that they tend to make the same predictions they made before, but also learn the new pieces. So I might build in some sort of a soft constraint, a penalty that says, don't forget, try to remember things. Or people do other things that are maybe a little bit more hacky or tricky. They make the computers, once you see the new facts, the new x's and y's, watch some of the old ones again, see some new ones, see some old ones again, maybe regenerate synthetic versions of the past, maybe dream about things you've seen in the past as you consolidate that memory. But all of these are trying somehow to pull in the notion that says that as you learn new facts, new x to y mappings, you shouldn't forget all the ones you've seen before. Cool, that's good. But that's not enough to be like a human. We can ask the question, how do humans or even rats move? Now, here's a question that was a trick question. I dump a rat in a maze with a start and some food at the end. What does the rat do? And I talked to some rat people at Penn and I discovered what do they do mostly? They wander around, they sniff it out, they check it out. If they're hungry, they will try and run and find the food. But the rats have to be really hungry to run to the food. They're like you. If you're hungry, you run through refrigerator. But the rest of the time you're out trying stuff out. So rats spend a lot of time just checking the stuff out, unsupervised learning, just seeing what's there, looking at the maze, watering around it, sniffing stuff, they got great smell systems. And then when they need to learn to find the food, they can learn it much more quickly. Our current computers are pretty crappy at that. They don't do a good job of exploring and thinking. So one question you could ask is how can I make a AI, a deep learning system that's more curious, that's more interested? Now currently we do reinforcement learning to maximize reinforcement. But instead of that, maybe I should encourage the reinforcement learning to take actions which are likely to be surprising, to give some result I didn't expect. And to encourage the reinforcement learning system not just to greedily move as fast to the cheese at the end of the maze, but to explore the maze and discover parts of the maze it hadn't done. To try pushing different levers to see what happens if I do it. To try taking different actions. So a hybrid reward system that rewards both exploration, learning new stuff, and exploitation going to the reward. A number of researchers try this. They often combine it with something for example like episodic memory. Remember not just the rules of this is what happens if you take this action, how good or bad it is. But also remember what have I seen? Is this familiar? Is this not familiar? Humans and rats are remarkably good at recognizing, yep I've seen this before, nope I've never seen this. And if you augment your learning with that sort of episodic memory, this I remember having seen this yesterday, I had this for lunch yesterday, oh I've never eaten that, I'm curious, let me try it. Then you can actually reward the RL system for discovering novel environments, novel actions, as well as for trying to succeed at its end task.


Well, hi there, it's Sandy Allknock, artist and paper crafter here on YouTube and the title of this video is slow down and make a card So guess what?  Look how cute this art is with all of these slots on it. Are they adorable? I'm gonna color just one of them and that's what happens when I color slowly We're just gonna get one of them done. I started off with an E8 one on this one because I wanted to see how far that branch would go and It gets kind of fat really quickly and I didn't like the fact that it's gonna get fat really quickly So I decided to use the technique from the autumn scenes class over at artclasses.com If you haven't taken that one and you think well do you is that's Ridiculous, why would I take that class now because it's not autumn? Well, take the same techniques and for those who've already taken the class take the same techniques and change them into spring and summer colors And you can do the same kinds of trees. I'm not gonna be doing a spring trees class I don't think Maybe eventually if there's enough outcry for it in a couple years But I have a lot of other things on the plate that I want to cover because you can just take these same Trees that that you were making with all of your beautiful oranges and reds and Yellows and just change them into a variety of greens and you can make them in all different kinds of greens too Experiment with which ones layer over top of each other really well For this particular card I just wanted something to cover up that giant big fat branch because it clearly had to get bigger and bigger You could make a whole set of tree branches out of it You could do this one kind of sideways a little bit so that he sits a little more at an angle rather than hanging straight down Kind of different ways that you can deal with a stamp like this But I wanted to have just the tree hanging down from above him with this one branch hanging down that he's holding on to And I'm just gonna use a bunch of different greens and there's not really a rhyme or reason for why I was doing it I just wanted to see what would work and That's what happens when you slow down in color. Just take some time to try something new and different And especially if you've got the technique down for this tree this particular lesson, which was lesson one in the class I Saw more people using this technique than I did any of the other trees in the class So this one I know you guys have got it nailed. You know how to do this So just change up your different Different tree strokes your your brush strokes and your marker strokes in order to make it a more spring or summery tree How easy is that you take one class and you have your round trees because you could do this with all different kinds of Greens you could also put flowers up there in this in the tree itself lots of different fun But let's talk about how the branch is going to go up in there as well because the branch needs to have some negative coloring around a few of those leaves so that I have I Guess a little way of making it show that it's coming from within the tree branch You could put the whole tree branch in the front But that would defeat the purpose of why I covered it up with leaves because I just didn't want that big chunk of brown showing But I am gonna put a little bit of brown in between the leaves so that it's kind of peeking through in a couple spots I'm gonna darken the colors up there in the beliefs But this is gonna allow it to look like this is part of the tree It's kind of going up inside of it and I decided to play with a YG 97 and it didn't work all that great But you know, I think by the time I get it all done and add more colors to it and just keep Keep adding and keep changing It's gonna come out great in the end because I did like how this card came out But may or may not have been a good choice to make this one You can try different greens that you have and see which ones work But I kind of got myself vested in it by the time I started And I'm a big believer in when you have a piece of paper and you've started coloring it even if something goes awry Like oh my gosh, I picked that color. It didn't look right. What the heck do I do now? Well, try continuing just plod on and see what happens because you have Already Ruin this piece of paper if that's what happens then you've already wrecked it So why not learn something from it at the very least? You'll have a little bit more education under your belt and you'll know what colors work and don't work And you never know you might be able to find some techniques to cover the error or change things Make it happen in a different way And then you can apply that the next time you color something And in this particular case, even though I wasn't really thrilled with it I was watching the color of that yg9 7 start to disappear And I took the whole tree and kind of knocked it back a little bit more by using yg9 5 a lot of it So that it would make the whole thing look more olive rather than that bright color because the yg9 5 Or yg9 7 was just too dull to fit with the other colors that I'd already used But it worked really well once I started putting the yg9 5 in there. So that was an interesting learning Of how to make a tree like this So now i'm going to jump down to do the sloth And again Which I do with a lot of my cards If you start with the hardest part if you want to do a background And you're not sure that it's going to work do your background first Because then you don't feel the pressure for the rest of the card If the first part didn't work then you don't spend your time doing the rest of the image So if you've got a background that's going to be challenging try doing that part first And especially if you do what I did which was leave this in the misty So if I needed to re-stamp it it's already in place. So don't take it all apart yet And then you'll be able to real quickly go back and re-stamp it if you need to But don't waste that piece of paper Just take your time and work at it and see what happens if you keep adding color because I think for the most part That's what I find to be the biggest problem With a lot of people's coloring is they don't take it far enough. You just got to keep coloring If you've noticed with a lot of my cards Things look like a hot mess until they don't like that tree up there looked really bad until it didn't And that's the kind of thing that happens with art You'll just hit a point when it starts to work And keep going until you hit that point It's going to add a couple different colors to my sloths fur And going for some really nice darks so that I have some good contrast And keep adding my mid-tone and my light tone until I get all that to blend I think these sloths are really hysterical and cute. You can look them up on google And find different colorations of sloths So there's some that have more of a A brown fur on their faces and their tummies others are a little more clean or white And there's ones that have brown in their fur and there's ones that have black in their fur Just all different kinds of colors And they these would even be fun doing them in total like rainbow sloths That'd be hilarious because they're not known for being like party animal type things But it would be fun to make them look like they're having a wild party even though they're sloths So they're really cute I like I love the art impressions images. They do really fun animals and I love coloring unique things And they have some of the most unique stamps out there And the other sloths in this set are really cute. There's one that's a hugging a little heart And I was debating trying to do that one because I want to color it with The thing upside down and see if I can figure out how to do that because he's not really holding on to anything So I'd have to figure out how to adapt the stamp Which is why I decided to stay stick with this one and show you the tree and talk about using that class for For some of your spring cards Instead because I thought that would be a more valuable lesson for you I do try to teach things here on youtube when I'm Creating a video for you. So you get to learn something and then go out and apply it Somebody has the same colors In the hat that I had or at least some of the same colors that I had up above Instead of having anything wild in this one because as I just said sloths are not known for being wild So he's going to have green party accoutrements. He's going to have a green hat and a green balloon And here again, I tried that yg9 5 in there and went oops And I just covered it with yg1 7 and that tended to Brighten it back up again. So if you have something like that, just go over it with something else and see what happens What's the worst you can do is toss the piece of paper and start over again or cut out another balloon and glue it on top So for this one all I did was glue it onto a card base very simple Kept it straight up and clean And I think it's really adorable and I hope that you're going to use your fall trees To create some really fun spring and summer carts this year I want to see those go tag me when you make something like that or better yet Share it in the art classes facebook group, which is linked in the description down below We have a great facebook group and it's been a little slow lately So come share your art from classes and how you're applying your lessons and I'd love to see you. All right. Take care. Bye. Bye


In 2012, 4.7 percent of hourly wage workers got paid minimum wage. That's a number President Obama would like to see decrease. And the President's stated the union addressed last month. He stated he will raise federally funded employee's wages to $10.10 an hour. This will help families. It will give businesses customers with more money to spend. It does not involve any new bureaucratic program. So join the rest of the country. Say yes. Give America a raise. On the same night, Governor DeVall Patrick gave his State of the Commonwealth address. He also urged a hike in the state minimum wage. To those who are reluctant to raise the minimum wage, I ask only that before you resolve to oppose it, consider whether you can live on it. Although Massachusetts is 75 cents higher than federal minimum wage, workers still struggle to meet their costs. The fight is all the more difficult if you live in a city. If you live in Boston, you already know the city is expensive. But just how expensive? A 2013 Yahoo Finance Study found that Boston ranks in the top 10 most expensive cities to live in the U.S. Thousands of people, like Kelly Lindberg, are low-wage workers attempting to survive in the city. I'm very aware that where I live is not always the most conducive to my paycheck. I have a second job is so I can pay bills, essentially. I'm pretty frugal all the time. I won't go out as much as sometimes friends will be like, oh, let's go out for dinner. And I'll be like, well, I already did that once this week. Or I did that last week. Or, you know, I just paid a bill. So I don't really feel I can. There are very few places in the United States where a person living and having a job that's minimum wage, they can actually survive on that job. They have to work 85 hours a week to essentially make them out. Massachusetts senators are hoping to change this, having just passed a bill to raise the state minimum wage to $11 by 2016.

And ahead of the 2023 general elections, INEC has on Monday told heads of security agencies to degrade and neutralise all forms of security threats bedeviled in the country. And this is to avail Nigeria's opportunities to exercise their voting franchise and also enable it to deploy ad hoc staff to conduct the elections. The INEC National Commissioner for Information and Voter Education, but as the Fester Sokoi made the call, it was at the opening ceremony of a two-day workshop for the Commission's staff of voter education and publicity. Also included were the heads of departments and publicity affairs officers from the Northern States on strategic communications and operationalisation of the communication policy. It was facilitated by the European Centre for Electoral Support.
