Man, hey man, we got some guys in here today y'all. They been a lot, they been doing a lot of podcasting too. I mean, I'm looking today trying to figure it out. I've seen a lot of stuff going on. You boy working. And when they work, they work in a group. Always. Man, King knowing Toheed. What's going on? That Toheed name throwing me off. I need to know what the heck that is man. It's Islamic man, it means one with a law. Okay, okay. I like that. You know me, put me up on game. I don't know what's going on. I don't want to miss nothing nigga, I'm listening. So man, hey man, you guys man, like I said, I know y'all both got a heck of a story man. Backstories for sure, that's what we always seek for man. You know, the music and all that. I'm just trying to understand how you guys even got into dealing with this music. You know what I'm saying?  How do you guys plan to be successful in what you're doing? You know what I mean? Stuff like that. We're going to get into it. Yeah, right. Yeah, I'd like to take it back. So let's start with Noah first. Okay. I know that you. King. Yeah. Give him his crown. Then he'll say a king. You got to believe him till he prove your own. You know what I'm talking about?   So that first name, that's the old you. And when you be reborn, you're always renamed.  So how old were you when you were reborn? 2013. So I was. Well, it's 20, 20, nine years and 42. So I was 30. What caused you to have to realize that? You know, it's always something detrimental, something serious that usually happened where people grasped to that. 2013, I got shot. So I always knew something was in me because they always told me when I was a little closer, I was anointed. They didn't know what that word mean at that time. But when I got shot, you know, when the home invasion people detected them, like, man, your story tells them, we leave that video camera. We don't know how you're still here. So somebody broke in your house? Home invasion. Wow. And you were there by yourself? Yeah. I was sitting in the living room with, actually, I was on my journey. I was a college back then. It was on milk. I was just getting called into, like, you know, the Lord and wanted to understand it because I had like a bad breakup. So sometimes I feel like having that bad breakup, God trying to show me something. We moved people around me. And so I was on the phone with one of my pastors on the Bluetooth. And somebody kicked my dough in while I'm on the phone with the pastor. Wow. And he was playing with me. And so he heard him, you know, running through the house and asked me with my money and all that. He actually called 911. But, you know, about 10, he got there. I already got shot. Wow. That's crazy. Yeah.  Oh. Because they came in a Bun B house a few years back. What made them come into your house? It's something, what you was flossing, you rode them on them bit bar cars or something? Oh. That's for me the truth. I want to know how come they came in your house. So a lot of houses in the neighborhood. Yeah.  I think there's every man I had a love for the women. Okay. And so come to my house, I had a juror box about 15 Rolexes. Yeah. There it is. Yeah. Come on. Yeah. I had the money counter sitting on the dress. Yeah. She worked at Lowe's and I came in and spent $200,000 on some flows. Uh-huh. And so. She set you up? She, I ain't, I can't even say she set me up, but like a week after that when I little came by the house, so we got like a few days after that. Well, love is blind, my brother.    Y'all still together? No.  I had never ever touched nobody. I never did nothing wrong. I'm always, I'm just that good, that good kid, a good heart. And I kind of figured, okay, they wanted them women do it or they was trying to get the life insurance. Cause I always had like stability, good creative, good jobs. I was, I was being one of the ones that, I can't tell you what a bad credit score look like, you know what I'm saying? So I was being one of the ones that was on point. Yeah. Cause you had a credit company when you were younger. That's right. I don't know, I was 20 years old. I was fixing people credit back in like 1990 or something. Yeah. I always be, I trips off credit. I be feeling like if you got money, you don't need credit. So I just feel like if you can afford it, you get it. And that's how both of us think. I lived that way for a long time cause I come from the streets, but I understand credit is needed as well. Oh, you don't want to see the CID? Yeah. Yeah.  That department. Yeah. I just think that, you know, like I said, man coming up, I mean everybody had a story and hit that bump in the road when you did. But without it, you might not be here. You know what I mean? I know what I shadowed out without that. I was on my way to hell. Yeah. Yeah, I seen it.  I got shot in the head. That's what I was about to ask you. Where exactly did you get shot? Yeah, I got shot in the head. Did y'all catch the dude that shot you? Um, it was two, three dudes. One got killed robbing a bank like a week later. The other guy, he in prison. And the other guy got killed in the dice game. Yeah. So you remember their faces and everything? Yeah, they was broad. They like. They didn't care. They didn't come in to make me to leave, to let me live. They came in as a kid and broad, they like cameras everywhere. How many shots in the head did you get? I got hit one time. They shot twice. They only found one bullet. They came in to do them, you know, tape it off and do that. They only found one bullet. And you were unconscious after that? I was unconscious after that. They thought you were dead. Well, I was, I was, no. When they hit my fail, you know, but I could hear them and they were like gone down and finished down them. You know, I could hear them, but it was some of the blood coming. But I can hear them and then I woke up. I was in the house, but. You see, God has a purpose for everything. I always say, because you're still here, you have a purpose still. I knew that second bullet. Where is it? They couldn't find it in the wall. They couldn't find anywhere.  It was a choir. Wow. I seen me walking down the choir. I know I can't sing. So I'm like, what am I doing in church? And you know, when I started getting closer to the word, someone told me that Lucille was once an angel. And he was, he was a choir. He was good and quiet. And he said, that was him trying to call you on in. And that testimony came to me at the barbershop. I went to like, like two weeks later, I thought, you know, I was doing my research, paying people trying to find out who was it so I can do what I had to do. And one of my partners that was once a gangster, he got hit nine times. And he told me, he said, hey, he got called to ministry like a week, two weeks before that. And he was like, man, God said, Venus is going to be here. Stop. Don't worry about it. Because I was trying to put whatever I needed to find to catch who I was trying to do, you know, he was like, man, God said, Venus is here. So by the time I went to the barbershop to get a haircut, it was a guy. The barber just came up. He only worked there two days. And when I was in the chair going through my cell phone, the dude stopped me and said, hey, you see that picture right there? Stop. He just barbed. He said, man, you see that dungeon right there? That hole? That fire around there? You reaching? Like reaching, trying to get up? He said, man, that's a pit of hell. That picture, say that picture. And when I zoomed that picture, there was the mark of me getting shot. So when I left that chair, I called my partner and I said, hey, bro, I don't know what's going on with this barbershop.  He didn't know nothing about me getting shot. He don't know nothing. And then like a week later, I went there. Everybody knew what happened in the barge. They're like, man, that guy ain't been back since. What you do that, man? That man ain't been back. You know what I'm saying? He just came just to give me that message. That message. So that's when I knew God was working in my life. You know what I'm saying? So I started just going more to church and bumping into people and then I bought a house, put me right next. And became like one of the best friend of the past. The key on him, the lighthouse church in Houston. And then my other pastor that was on the phone when I got shot was Pastor Brian Murr. And that's in Houston you got shot? Mm-hmm. And put me right in between both pastors. All the house didn't know they was both right there, which was my message. Put me in the middle of there. And then like a month later, I meet Bishop J. He told me something. He said, man, you know your Moses called me by the blue in the middle of church with like 8,000 people. So I said, man, God doing something with me. I don't know what it was. Even how me and Larry became like brothers. That was all God. You know what I'm saying? It's just, it's just, God was taking me in places. Everything we do every day is because of him. If you get up to breathe, it's because of him. So he ordered my steps. Yeah. Been doing this company three years. Got both of my artists signed to Cashmoney. They said, you can't get deals without having numbers or nothing like that. I can't say that because I got a deal with two artists without numbers. Signed to a major university. Signed to everything, you know. We're going to get into that. I want to talk with Tohee. One thing I want to commend you for, and I love the fact that you always mentioned God and every time whenever you speak, I've been watching a lot of your interviews and I commend you about that because, as I said, he's the reason for everything. Yeah. So keep that up. Yeah. So as a man thinking his heart so easy, that you got to understand what your path is and your purpose, whatever you thinking, that's where you're going to go with it. He's going to become something that you create. You got to be careful what you say. Tohee, what's up, man? What's going on, my God? I mean, you singing and everything. You a singer. I'm a singer. But you trying to rap. Trying to rap. He said trying. Okay, well, I want to know what's going on. I mean, you Chris Brown or something, right? Nah, man, I'm Tohee. I'm just trying to understand what's going on, baby. You know what I'm saying? So how did you end up, where are you from originally? I'm originally from Queens, New York. Oh, man. I can hear the accent. Queens, New York. It's still there because my family keep it on me. You like that old pizza they got out there? Need some more pizza, yeah. Nah, nah, y'all ain't got... There we go. Let me tell you something. He set me up because he loves New York pizza. I love Chicago pizza. I love my deep dish. I was throwing you the live pass.  So what part are you from? I'm from Queens. Queens. I'm from where Hakeem went to get his wife on Coming to America. No, no, you can't miss me. There you go. You can't miss me. I know where he went. So let me ask you this. So in Queens, they... Them boys rap up there, man. I know I've been to Queens a few times. But I'm just saying them boys rapping up there. See, I was young when I left. Okay, how old was you? I had to be like six, seven. Y'all go back. Heavy. Yeah. I still got family up there now. Cousins, uncles, all of them sell up there. Yeah. So, I mean, do you... Do you miss it? It's home. You know you can't stay too small.  It's hard for me in New York now. It's too much out here. Boy, it's hard. It's home now. Them room boys, they build up. They don't build out. I can't deal with it. I'm from Texas, man. That's for real. But I go up there and visit them. They got some nice offices. They got some stuff out there. But we was down there. When I was down there, I'm the youngest. Okay. I'm 17. Wow. Yeah, Papa Roller. That boy, I say 17. How many boys? Hold on. You said 17? 17. 17. Ooh, I didn't hear the teens part. That nigga say 17. That young nigga got it. And you are the youngest? I'm the baby. Wow. Wow. How old is the oldest? Ooh. He up there. He probably like 42. Damn. I hear his making some like that now. It was a stretch to me. No, he weigh up there. No. It's a stretch. It was a stretch to me. Hey man, what's going on, king? No, man. Talk to your boy. He was aPerfect man. I'm right there. He can't make us see his face, man. Well, what did this gal do? He weigh up there. No. He fought.  Yeah. How do you like being with this label?  Let me know what you feel. How long have you been with the label? I've been with what? We've been like three. Two and a half. Two and a half? Yeah.  Nah. I'm just saying. Nah, nah. We there, we there. But before you talk, before you say, um, how you like it, I wanna know how did it happen and before that even happened, I wanna know when did you build your confidence in knowing that you can sing, that you have a talent? I wanna know when that happened and stuff. All right, so I'm not gonna lie. I was a little cocky growing up. Oh, you've always been that way. I'm a little cocky, but I just, I'm a wins kid when it comes to music. I like sound, sonics, all that stuff is, I love that. Like I self taught myself how to play piano in third grade. So I just been like. Are you like really good at a piano? Yeah. I was just like, I don't know. I just love music. So I always had to. You ever heard of Ty Harris? Ty Harris, nah.  For sure.   He get down and uh, he gonna tour with Snoop right now. Yeah. Okay. He serious. He was just on here. He ain't playing no game. So yeah. With that piano, he did.  I wanna, I wanna, yeah, they come. Yeah. Me ain't been back since. Here. And he from Dallas. Yeah, you probably do. Okay. But I definitely want you to look him up. Cause you said that piano, that's what y'all. And you, and you know music. So, and y'all younger. So what y'all do with it is a little different than what, what your eldest would be with his party.   Nah. Okay. Let me hear something then. Yeah. Acapello. Something. Yeah, I bet. Let me see that. Don't give it to him, man. Let him know what he's hitting for. All right, that's what came to my head. She said, baby, I'm afraid to fall in love. Cause what if it's not reciprocated? I don't know. Sound like that. All right. You can't just tease me like that. She don't play, man. I knew you were gonna stop. You can't do that. Yeah, yeah. He said, I think he's going to stop. You sound good though, man. Nah, nah, I'm gonna get out of here. Here we go. Yeah.  Cause there's nothing wrong with auto-tune. As long as you don't just, you know, do it. Get your key right. To death, right? Yeah, just get your key right. You gotta hear what you think. You the owner of the company? You know, like I told her that she said how I even met Tohe. I was in Onala. Somebody, another artist that wanted me to sign him. And Tohe was there helping him set up his video shoot. And they played a song on the video. I was like, who was that? They said, the kid that's skating on the skateboard. You know what I'm saying? I said, I want to sign him. I forgot all about the other guy. You know what I'm saying? And I just seen some men. I just seen how he was on the skateboard putting up, helping the other guy. Work at it. So it was, huh? Work at it. Yes, I seen it. And he was humble. Yeah. But I knew he was talented. You know what I'm saying? He just, he's still, you know, finding his, his weight. And then I said, I want to sign him. Talk to him. And I said, yo, I don't know what you got going on, but send me some of your music. So he sent me some music and maybe like a two weeks later, I called him up. I said, man, you never heard it. It's still called Southbox. What is Southbox? Southbox. I didn't even know nothing about it. I just started my company. And I had another artist called Young Al. And so I was doing a run with him.  Go do that. Southbox. I was a big dad in there. Like introduced me to him. So I went out there. Really with him. I flew him out there. And we just vibe. The, the first day we sat in, in the, in the SUV and just listen to his music. And all he was doing then was just really just straight singing. So it's like, how are you doing now? He didn't want to do no singing rap. He didn't want to do that. But I have a year. And I like, I just got this gift. I can say, I think he bigger than just singing rap. Cause like, let me just sing it. Because to break an artist singing, it's not like it was 20 years ago. So, you know, I just got a womb. Just got him. So when we signed, I said, man, just find a sound. Keep singing, keep doing, keep doing, you're doing, you know, and then eventually going to have, and then maybe one day they call us to come to Miami. That's what I miss. Slim and baby and all that. They need to drink. They say, man, you got something right there. You got a drink in a wine right there.  I'm telling you, I discovered both of them. Yeah, because versatility is key. I can't just stick to one thing. Cause even in the industry right now, if you look at industry back then, you were only like a singer or rapper.  You got to know the business. You got to know everything. If you don't, you're slipping. Yeah, you say slim. Let's get back to that. So you flew down there. You just flew down the slim.  Give me the address now. I'll fly down there and just roll up on. Tell us the real in-depth detail. What you doing over at their house? Why you at their office? How you end up doing that? You know what I'm saying? We need to really understand. I heard Slim, a book that he had spoke on, I read and it was a real good book, Secret Minds of a Millionaire by T. Harvecker. And I took that book and I read it for year after year and even had my kids to read it because it was a very good book. And I didn't hear from him much, but when I heard him say that book, it made me go and research because he said he had read it while he was on a flight. So, you know, it's stuff like that. And he's been a... I'm a real big bird man, Slim. I'm a big fan, like, I don't play with that. You can't talk to me about nothing going on on the east coast. See how I looked over there? On the west coast or none of that. When it's down south, it's Birdman and Slim and Jay Prince. So all I'm saying is, tell me about what happened because I had to raise the shun and you remember I broke him down. I want to hear what happened up there at the breakfast club when y'all fell out and you was in there with Birdman. He was in there with him. When I interviewed him, I got the goods on there. Now I got you here. I want to hear about... You ain't got to give me that address. You know what I'm talking about. But just let me know how you guys came together. So, when the big doll... When the big doll called me, I first even got out with the university and I was in New York. We had a young add, my first artist. So we had a sit down situation with Universal in New York. And you know, Republic Records and Universal S-Cas money. You know what I'm saying? Of course. That's why they got that $30 million deal. Yeah. I was down in New Orleans last weekend and I was interviewing Kale and Mack and all of them and the lady who sent BG's music to Universal. What's her name? Shirani? What's her name? Shirani. She owns Peach's record store and I interviewed her. And Birdman and she talked about them having all of them being in the same car driving to the record store when they first started. So, I definitely understand that their cultureistic ways and the way they came with it is very important to what happened with the music in the South. So, I got to slam these up when, you know, this is about the smallest I ever been. Okay. We went on to rock. Because when I bring my brother Larry, I don't like a lot of people around. He like me. Me and Larry, about the same thing. So, he got moving in a comfort zone. Yeah. So, how many people you normally have with you and you normally move? Like, 15. Yeah. He been shot. He almost like... Remind me of PGF Short when he came down here. He had a whole movement with him. Yeah. That's what we all... We all know movement. Yeah. Because you really... That makes... That gives it a look, too. Because when you record it's very smart. It's very good marketing. I get it. He did music videos with the whole thing that he did? Yeah. You know, so, you know, and I'm affiliated with a lot of people. Okay. So, when you move in different places, they got to know the presence is them. Mm-hmm. You know, so, when I move, I know... move like the military. You know what I'm saying? Very militant. You know, I got a lot of ties to Chicago. So, a lot of my affiliations, we move militant. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? So, that's just how I move. And so, when I went to university, it was like 15 deep. Wait, wait, wait, man. See, that's when you and I went to university. It don't just happen like that. You know, just go to universal, bruh. It's the reason why you ended up in universal. You know, I walk in people meetings with millions of dollars.  I got friends. Mm-hmm. Well, I can walk in in Texas. And I walk in there. I know they millioned up. And I know we in the midst of them. But everybody can't, like, he can't go in. No. They don't know him. Yeah. But you gotta understand. See, I've been on the same... I'm an engineer for a company. Mm-hmm. So I can go in certain offices because I've built the whole city. You know, I know stuff people don't know. But everybody can't go there. Everybody can't go to universal. That's all I'm saying. Tell us how you ended up there. You really want to hear the truth? Yeah. Mm-hmm. I signed an artist that already had a buzz called Jungle Freestyle. Okay. So I'm a type of person that I research and I study everything. So I had researched the movement where Jay Prince did. I researched the movement with Slim did. I researched the movement that Damon Dash did. And I put it all together. And I got in the closet and I prayed when I was on the store of Seven Kings. Okay. That's why the number seven is very prophetic. So I prayed. I said, when I started this company, I created LSC, me and my sister. I did want God to manifest it. So I signed an artist not knowing that within, like, 40 days later that I'd be getting a call from the university. 40 days. That's just like... When you said 40 days, he's thinking for 40 days, 40 nights. Yeah. So I got a call. And they were like, who? The university wanted to come there. They were like, for real? Everybody like couldn't believe it. You know what I'm saying? I said, yeah. And so we got on a plane. I flew like 15 of us out there. And we went up there. And when I went, I make everybody be dressing. Hey, everybody be saying, saying this, saying that there was a lot of them in the beginning wanting to have their own swag. Yeah. I know... That's what we're doing. I know what they're doing. You know what I'm saying? So we went to the university. One of the Jewish guys came out. I'm like, hey, what's the name of your company? I say Seven Kings. He said, okay, y'all have a meeting on the seventh floor. You know what I'm saying? And so seventh floor, if you know anything about university, that's where the chicks get wrote. That's where the big stuff go on. But they didn't write me no chick that day. So when I got there, I just found that out recently. When you get to the seventh floor, you kind of made it up there. And so when I got there, they were like, man, you remember the old cash money. So about 30 days later from there, I just seen my Instagram. I started seeing like Birdman liking this stuff on my Instagram. And so I was like, okay, they're somebody talking. But not only that, because whenever y'all moved in that group, everybody was outfitted in the same outfits as well. So it made an image. Yeah, that's the image you want. You want to move in the same outfits. You want to be in sequence. That is definitely structure. And so I knew right then that they were watching us. And then my jeweler, I was buying some jeweler from God, and I increased the jeweler. And so we went to Mississippi, take him on a meeting run to the radio station. I stopped him by the chain while I was there.  I said, you got a line on him? And he said, yeah, I can call him up. So he hit Stunner right there. And he said, man, this guy here moving like you, bro. You know what I'm saying? And he said, yeah, I heard about him. He was in Universal Code weeks ago. So boom, I knew, you know what I'm saying? Right. They were talking. They talking. In the right circles. Yeah. And so he said, man, come out there. He said, man, you know, I like the little kid, little young guy. In the town, they ain't even know nobody told him. They ain't know nobody GSO fat. They don't know nobody. And you already had all of them at the same time? Yeah. Okay. And so I went up there based off the deal for young guy. And so I brought GSO fat. So he didn't even come with me at this time. So I brought GSO fat and ale to man. And then we went to like this big, one of these guy with them hotel, but one more five-star hotel. And before I knew it, I seen like full range rows of pulled up made backs and I was just pulled up. I'm like, I don't know. What? Who is he pulled up? But they come in like, King Jaffet Jovo. He was in Queens. Why would you? In Miami. In Miami. Yeah. So they sent this other, like, a Arab guy come out and talk to me and say, Slim, I'm going to come out and talk to you. And this and this and that. So when Slim got out, he just came to me and said, man, I like you. He just got the car. Can't struggle to me.  He did his research on you already.   That's what he told me. I was looking at him like, I don't even know about him, but he was hitting me on the money. He said, you got a good heart. He said, where the art is it? I said, there's no style.  So he come out bad smoking. Oh my God. He embarrassed me. So he walked straight, he walked straight up to him and just, uh, and just tell him, tell him straight up that, man, I've been liking you. You know, I've been liking you. You the man. This, this, this, this. And then, he just told me, say, look, I don't know what y'all doing, but y'all need to listen to your big homie right here. He said, we're going to get the paperwork done tomorrow. I ain't heard my muse. I ain't said, I swear, he said, we're going to get the paperwork done tomorrow. He said, I'm a sign. He said, y'all got good energy. They say, you know, you're doing something big. He said, I haven't seen this before. And then, the next day, that when the pandemic hit, yeah, the pandemic hit. And when, you know, we was heading back, I think Faddy caught the cold because we was on the plane grinning here, but he was throwing up and people from the kickers out the plane. I was so nervous. And then, so I called, he said, man, y'all just keep working so I kept on working even during the pandemic. And then, when the pandemic was slowing down, they called me back up to, man, matter of fact, I called you. I said, they sent me this paperwork. I asked, I called everybody in the room. I said, look at the deal, get lawyers, look at what y'all want to do. You know what I'm saying?  That's real. So Faddy like, I say, I didn't walk by faith right there. I didn't walk by faith. He said, man, I was in juvenile. What you talking about? I'm from the sign of cash once. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He didn't even look at it. I swear he didn't. I can't blame it. Look, when you ain't got nothing done from nothing, leave nothing, man. So he's He's trusting that you have his best interests at heart. So he know you're going to check it over. Yeah. He signed it and walked out the room and left. Didn't look at it, then nothing. I was like, I'm going to take it home. And let me think about it. Let me read it. That's how I told you. Even New York. And mom in New York. They think they can read all that real. So I had seen Fad paperwork way to the spread smelter to a stump. And then they were like, Hey, what's up with it? They were like, what's up with the little Drake, man? What's up with him? I said he had to get his attorney to look at it and stuff like that. Which I just fabricated. I just know he's our person. He's going to look over it. Hisself? Yeah. You picked him out. He looked over it and then he came back. He had scratch scratch. He had all what he wanted. You know what I'm saying? He already checked it out. He ain't just right here. He ain't like that. I'm good right there. Yeah. And so my sister was like, I think there might be an insult for a person to just give you a deal. A multi-millionaire deal.  They just really give you a deal based off what they believe in. Yeah.  So they told me, they said, well, she do got a point. I said, what you going to do? He was like, man, whatever you say. I said, man, just sign this stuff. We good. Yeah. I said, God, God. You know what I'm saying? So we signed it and then maybe like a few months later they had this, the university had this big thing in Miami where they, all their artists, new artists that they signed. They had to perform around there ever since then. And I'll be back and forth. Like I talked to a stunt.  They do their thing. And I'm going to be with on the business side, him and the business. Yeah. Yeah. Let them do what they do in it. So he kind of like grooming me on a lot of this stuff.  But the niggas that they talking about, they messed out of money and all that millionaire. You know, I'm like, damn, let them mess over E one time. You know what I'm saying? I'll sign it.  And I'll show you. I'm a sign it.  Cause, you know, music for me, a lot of people that and shout out the idea a lot of people ain't making no money in this music, bro. You know what I'm saying? A lot of people just talking.  A lot of people fluffing this up. They love to dance around on Instagram. The girls twerking in the niggas line. You know what I'm saying? So, I mean, you know, to even be able to have something structured and to have something to wear as lucrative is a big deal for me. In this day and time. Yes, sir. Am I right? Yeah. To put you in a position where you can be able to better provide for your family and do some things and generational wealth. Yeah. Yeah. So, you already got screwed for that? You got a film company. Yeah. I got a film.  Dirty Third. No. That's what, that's what, Rick South, DJ Screw. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I just, man, D-Rick partnered up and did, you know, they just did the new DJ Screw move. Yeah. I heard about that. He doing, we came in, like, DJ Screw Knowledge. So, we just redid the second part of that, with third part of that move, you know. So, I started the film company because I know God, he gonna do the rest. Man. You take one step, he'll take more than two really. So, I know, I know there are ways a lot of people lost. So, I'm gonna be there voice to tell people, it's okay. You know, it's not wrong being spiritual and still have a little hood in you. It's nothing. You gotta have balance, man. I wanna ask you something because I notice you, you always seem to be a boss. And you've always seemed like you're trying to help people. You love to help people. Who was the person who helped you when you were younger? Who was that person who was that leader, that boss to you? Can I be honest with you? Yes. Ain't nobody helped me, but God. Even as a child? As a child. I've been through some stuff. I've been rejected. That's the whole purpose of me signing seven kings.  Huh?  No, my brother, I got a brother. My brother, he's a Marine. He, you know, he, well, he, he ties the military. He's a Colleen and my sister's a doctor. Okay. But I was the rejected stone. I was the one that didn't do one thing that spoiled building life. You know what I'm saying? I was out there. And so... Yeah, because you talk about an interview that you was paying everybody bills at 10. Yeah, I bought my car at 12. Yeah. How? How? Man, I was a hustler. Man, you're in them streets, man. At 12, carried the one hill. That was in 95, 96. That nigga was selling dope. Yeah. Yeah. He calculated. No, because I know the error. You know what I'm saying? Like, like... I was a connection there. Oh, okay. I believe in... It had to be some drugs involved in the 90s. Yeah, I was a connection there. I was a connection there. But I love the way how you turn everything around to be the person that you are today. Because that's the thing I could never understand I see a lot of these young kids, even artists who are still in the streets doing stuff and I'm like, you have a talent. If you can multitask and really run a business because that's what you're doing. Yeah. Why not turn that business into a legal business and run that as well the same way, but they're like... They take people like Boss Talk. Oh, jeez, they come in and better to give them their vision to say, hey, you can go this route. Man, listen, man, that's exactly what it is. You don't have to exactly what it is. You know, I talk about dope and all that, but I stopped drinking, smoking and everything and 94, 95. But that's the problem with people. You know, people don't understand that you can make it. And so you have to be... Really, you can't tell them you got to show them. I'm living proof, you know what I'm saying? That people can change. You can't make up excuses and say, well, you can't do it. You got to want it too. So it takes some sacrificing. But it's the anointing most of all for me. I believe in God. At the end of the day, I feel like God had a purpose and plan for my life. That's why I sit on this side of the seat now. But even before now, I was always taking the kids and everybody up to Vegas, Cali, everywhere. She know, I was spending our money. She was with me. We've been married for 20 years. I took people everywhere. I took them to Chicago. We went everywhere. We take people everywhere on our own time. We never got nothing really in return. But we got it because it came from the heart. We got it from God. So that's the whole game with me. And that's why I sit next to y'all like I do because I know already if God got you in a leadership role and you got these people lives in your hand, really, God ain't did that. He ain't. He wouldn't let it happen if you weren't ready for it, bro. And for the type of business that you've always been an entrepreneur, so you could have chosen any other career to start a business in. Why the music industry? Because in the music, it's a lot of rejected people that try and tell their story. That's it. Most of them got depression. Most of them went to life because to go into a boot and create something like that, something that right with you right there. So you got to give them direction. If you ever know every artist, they need direction. Because it's counseling. What I look at, it's counseling. They're relieving all the stress, all the anger, all the everything into their music. And so I want to be that person to tell them like, bro, it's okay going on top, but let me tell you this too. No God is the source I'm certified. So when they do that research, if I go in the room with a bunch of killers, I walk in, they're going to get in line like, okay, you know, they know. I love that.  So I got a lot, a lot of respect. And I heard you said that you actually went to family with Eve. Yeah. So are y'all still close? No, she was she married a billionaire. I know. So she ain't close to him. Just had a baby. Yeah. So that was that's when she was a, you know, she was popular for Pell back then, you know, like she was on the pole back then. Yeah. Yeah. That's, that's before she got to pause on it. They just got one pause right there. Yeah.  They got to go through. But that's a good plug, though, man, it's just an honor and a pleasure, man, for you guys come sit down. I got to ask y'all something though before you go. Top three artists of all time did or like. Any genre. Any genre. Any genre. Any genre. There are ideas right there. L.D., be quiet. Let's go. You know the show. Number one. Number one for me. I don't help. What are you thinking? You got to have a number one. A number one. Oh, man. Come on. You can change it tomorrow, but today I need it. Number one. Man, you know Prince played 27 instruments, man. Number two. Michael Jackson. Yeah, Michael Jackson in the building every time. Number three. Number three. I'm going to say two pop. Two pops. I love you top three. I love the list. Yeah. That was a solid list. That was a solid list. That was a solid, solid list. What's your top three? I was going to say MJ first. Okay. Okay. I was going to say Biggie second. Okay. I didn't have one for the third. You got to get it. Think about it. You got a third. I mean, whew. Sheesh. And you only said Biggie because you New York. Yeah. Where Brooklyn at? God. Come on. You got to get me one. You got to get it. Off the top. Boom. Any genre? Oh, Beyonce. Boom. Oh, my love. Beyonce. That boy, that boy, little Beyonce. Can't be mad at you about that. Man, save man. Just like, if people get a hold of you, if they're trying to, you know, link up with y'all because, you know, they got to work, of course, but if they're trying to do something for God, maybe you never know what this could bring. So how would they get hold of you? Man, basically, social media is Seven Kings, ENT, that's my Instagram. And my website is Seven Kings, spelled out, S-E-V-K-I-N-G. Can anybody reach out to you? Like, if somebody, like an artist out there and they love your movement and they would like to join your movement, they would just reach out to you? I'm always open. I'm gonna pass it before anything. What about you? My Instagram is, I love Tohee, I love T-O-W-H-I-D, and then you can go straight to the Seven Kings Instagram as well. What happened to your old Instagram? Because when I was looking at, I found another Instagram, like, did they take your Instagram or something? I don't, I only went to like three Instagrams, I ain't gonna lie. Why, what happened? They took it? The first one got took, the second one, I don't even know what happened to the second one. You took it yourself?  Let me tell you that, exactly.  Bro, what is y'all doing out here? Man, it just seemed like I ain't know them cats, and they came, and I want them to know I had the gun, whatever, so I just showed that you know, don't do that, bro. If you feel uncomfortable, call somebody, get somebody up there with you, but don't, this is the kind of stuff that happens when you, when God got you in a position where you dealing with people's lives, bro. So you got to be there for these kids, you know what I'm saying? And like I said, I wasn't doing it because I wanted to be no man, I don't know nothing about the, I love music, but I just did it just because you keep people out of trouble when you put them in the right setting and you keep them in the right place. You taking up, taking up time with them. Trying to give them direction, where they won't lead them to, that I call it, that why I wrote the question. Yeah, yeah, that why I wrote is real. Yeah. But I could never understand why people did that anyway, because to me, the most dangerous person is the person who's not doing all of that, who you'll never see them do that, compared to the people who show it and stuff like that. They're really not going to do none anyway. The ones who show it? Yeah. Yeah, you can scare them in a corner. You don't have to do it. We just had to, we just had to. You can scare them in a corner. He'll do it. We had that conversation at the other interview. Like I said, people that's pouring that gun and doing it all the time. When you're getting the big house, you don't have that gun. No. You know, they quiet in there.  You know, what you're going to do That's real. Can't do nothing. What you going to do?  You're right. You're right. Man, you got the best spirit, man. You're a very humble brother, man. I thank God for you coming on Boss Talk 101.  You know what I'm saying? And just, just man, keep doing what you're doing, man. If you're ever in Texas again or if you're, you know, in Dallas, Texas, or if I'm down in Houston because I come down there. I was just down there a few times here lately. I holl at y'all, man. I love everybody. I don't leave nobody to tell them that I love y'all. That's me. They say I'm lying, but I tell them, don't we do it? Don't we do it every time? Ain't nobody said in that seat that we didn't love, man.  And at that point, why not? You know what I'm saying? We're here now. You know what I'm saying? Thank you guys for coming on the show, man. Appreciate you for having us. Man, any time, man. Hey, man. It's been another great segment of Boss Talk 101 what a boss is taught. Are we out?


Novak Djokovic vs. Matej Baratini is the men's final for Wimbledon for 2021. Both players have had different roads to get to the final stage. Baratini entered the tournament as the number 7 seed and will take on Palla in the first round. And after dropping the second set, he prevailed in 4, 6-4, 3-6, 6-4, 6-love. The second round was against the lucky loser, van der Zanschel, the Baratini dismissed the Dutchman in straight sets. 6-3, 6-4, 7-6. Third round opponent was against Betonay and again a straight set performance. Winning in 3, 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. In the fourth round, he faced another unseeded opponent, Avashka. And again, another straight set performance from Baratini. 6-4, 6-3, 6-1. Quarterfinal opponent was the number 16 seed Felix Ojaliasim. And this was the first time Baratini was playing a seeded player for the event. Baratini had the experience prevailing in 4, 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, 6-3. The semi-finals, Baratini would take on the number 14 seed, who was just coming off the win against Roger Federer. And after winning the first two sets easily, he had to fight to finish in 4, eventually prevailing 6-3, 6-love, 6-7, 6-4 to advance to his first Grand Slam final. The defending champion and world number one Novak Djokovic started his tournament against the wildcard Draper. And after losing the first set, Djokovic would eventually prevail in 4, 4-6, 6-1, 6-2, 6-2. His second round opponent was against the veteran Andersen, who he'd had some battles with at Wimbledon in the past. But this time Djokovic got the job done in straight sets, 6-3, 6-3, 6-3. His third round opponent was against the qualifier Kutla. And after getting the job done in the first two sets, the third set was tight, with both players having set points. But Djokovic would get through in three sets, 6-4, 6-3, 7-6. His fourth round opponent was against the number 17 seed, Garen, who's a little bit of a surprise getting into the fourth round, considering he's more of a clay quarter. And this showed as Djokovic demolished the Chilean in straight sets, 6-2, 6-4, 6-2. His quarter-final opponent was against the unseeded Fucovic. And although Fucovic did have some highlight shots during the match, Djokovic got the job done in straight sets again, 6-3, 6-4, 6-4. In the semi-finals, Djokovic would take on the number 10 seed, Denyshapovalov. And this was a very tight match for Djokovic, as he would test it by the young Canadian. But he would eventually get through in three tight sets, 7-6, 7-5, 7-5, to advance to the final again. Head to head between these two is 2-0 in favour of Djokovic. But the last time they played was at the French Open in the quarter-finals a couple of months ago, and Djokovic won in four. But Matteo Beritini was starting to come back in that match. So it's interesting to see if Beritini can get off to a good start here, how he's going to affect Djokovic on the faster surface. If Beritini is going to win this match, he needs his serve to be working, and of course the forehand. They're the weapons. And he needs to be using them to great effect against Djokovic if he's going to win any sets here against the world number one. If Djokovic is going to win, he needs to limit the unforced errors. In the last couple of matches, he's been hitting a lot of errors. And if Beritini is firing at all cylinders with the serve and the forehand, Djokovic can't be giving away free points. So he needs to be clutched, and he also needs to be serving well as well. This is a tough one because we've got Beritini who's playing in his first final with Novak Djokovic going for records at the moment. He's got the 20 grand slams joining Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal. So I'm going to go with Djokovic on that one just because Beritini hasn't been to a final of a slam before. I think that it's going to be very new to him. He's going to be nervous early. And I think Djokovic is going to prevail just because he's got the experience over Beritini. I think it's going to be a five setter though. And I think Djokovic is going to get through. Let me know down in the comments below. Who do you think is going to win this final?

What to do if you get pulled over for that? First steps. Yeah, this always gets a little bit hairy. And the reason why is there are things, honestly, that I've told a client that judges might have a problem with.  First time you, if you're ever accused of a DUI on the first time, it's not a crime to refuse to take a breath test. The second time it is a crime.  So it gets a little bit complicated. But essentially, again, if you get pulled over, you want to protect your rights as much as you can. And that's what we do, to try to protect your rights. So obviously, you want to try to be cooperative, be polite with the officer. If you haven't been drinking or only drinking in moderation to where you're not impaired, you're not over the legal limit, that is probably best to cooperate. And if you are arrested, you're going to have to make a decision on whether to take a breath test or not. Again, there are consequences. If you decline, always smart to ask to consult with a lawyer prior to moving forward in the process.


is actually a reader submitted to op-ed. We found God, how the opportunity for Christian education led my family from atheism to Jesus. This is a couple in Missouri who weren't exposed to religion growing up and now have the opportunity to expose their children to it in school because of school choice.


Hello everyone. Welcome back to another Adobe Photoshop CC tutorial. This one I'm gonna show you how to straighten an image and I have selected the leaning tower of Pisa because well this is famous for not being straight. So let's just dig right into this guys. The way you want to do it I find the best way to do it is using the crop tool and for a lot of people that seems counter-intuitive because why would I crop the image I just want to straighten it but bear with me it's in there okay so here the first step for those of you that are following along you want to go over here and click on the crop tool you can also press the letter c and you've got the crop tool all good all right the next step it's a little little different but here we go I'll show you how to do it you basically you want to go into the crop tool and at the top here you're going to see something called straighten and when I hover over it says straighten the image by drawing a line on it that's where we're going with this bad boy so left click on that now you're going to see the cursor has changed it's changed basically to well the straighten cursor whatever that might be so the next step here is you want to go back to your image if you're following along and you basically want to draw a line that you think is what should be straight so for example this one's leaning to the right obviously so I'm going to click this and this piece here whatever it might be this should be straight in my opinion so I've gone ahead and created that line I'm going to left click and let go and then when I when you see when I let go it hasn't committed the change yet but when I hit enter it goes from leaning right to actually leaning a little left we over straightened it a little bit guys but that's not the point the point is that is how the techniques work guys it's very very simple this is how you can straighten any image inside photoshop in basically 60 seconds I hope you like this brief tutorial I've got a lot more stuff coming up thanks for watching

This does have the factory exhaust on it yet. Lower rockers and lower lips look excellent. No corrosion whatsoever. And the rear bumper we have the backup sensors. Really the only imperfection I saw on this truck is there's a couple little dings on the rear bumper but that's why we do the videos.

What? Brotherhood? What? Man, should I call him brotherhood? Hey! It's the whole guy here, boy. Brotherhood in the building!  Why you call him brotherhood? Oh, I don't worry about it. I don't worry about it. You know what I'm saying? We go back. It's an inside joke. Sometimes it comes outside, but it's...


To je pomembno, da ga se v tem, kako se vse nekaj ne vse, na papani in benzilu, tako v taj nekaj gaden. Tko je tudi osrednje tem, nekaj nekaj, ki se počutite na predstavku. Srečo, ga se počutiti o atlantici režimi, Moj imam vse, da te vse zelo, da se vse vse zelo, na vsevručnih modeli, in da se zelo vse vse vse tega zelo začelti in zelo in začelti in s trapečnimi. To je to, da se izgleda, in da sem izgleda, da se lahko trafimo, da haveem naši dynamik, naši dynamik, za to, da je zapredal, these regimes. We found this cluster, but is there a dynamical reason why this cluster should be separate. Now, in the past people have looked at quasi-geostrophic models and they found things, basically similar to what Wojtar and Legra found. možemo skupati vz newspapersu v Atlantiju, especially v 진 solo na kratahvě po vlasti, zaznjah na tom, da je vse povedet v español punchingesiteginje, ali pomožneje ta ljud, ampak od nitinga, da je to vse mene. Vzumila, da je, da je, nekaj in atlantij, čim vječenem, ki so poveden, smosta, katerovi cilje, kana da, in tudi vzvečen, vzvečen, v zelo v Westem Bandriči. Zato je to, kako to je. Zato je, da je teorič na termolekuliviracijne, plenitari vzvečen, ki smo vzvečali, in ki so, da je vzvečen, kako se vzvečen, kaj je. Zato smo vzvečen, zelo, da je zelo vzvečen, da je, da se vzvečen, zelo, da je zelo vzvečen, vznikno, in vznikno. Zato tudi, da smo pričočili, je to, da je veliko sempljeno model za izgledanje vznikov izgleda. Zato, da smo pričočili, da izgleda je izgleda, je to poddajte izgledanje. Zato, predstavno, je, da se ne moguš vznikov, ali, da se vznikov vznikov izgleda, in kako se v realnih veči. Prvno je tudi, da vse predstavimo nekaj spesivnih procesov, kaj je vse režim veči. In, kako smo videli, da vse režim veči, da imaš režim veči, da imaš balans vsega pozitivna vsega in negativna vsega, ker je vsega vsega in stabilitiva. So in order to have a bimodal distribution, it means that when the system is around here, there will be some instability that will bring the system either in this direction or in this direction. And on the other hand once you are in this point, if you move further down here then you need some restoring force that will bring you the system back. So you need an instability and some damping, some dissipation terms. Now in linear systems, if both the unstable and the stable part are linear, they will combine and the result will be that either you have an unstable mode or you have a stable system. In nonlinear system you can make this feedback dependent on the state itself. So in particular if this instability actually decreases gradually, then basically you reach a state where the restoring force may win and bring the system back. So you need these two ingredients. So the first thing was somehow to try and find which are these two ingredients that matter for the North Atlantic oscillation. Ok, so I employed the same sort of covariance techniques that I had used for the teleconnection studies that I showed before and I started by defining an NaO index. And since I think my interest was to basically look at NaO in the context of this possibly this wave number two pattern, what we did was not to use maybe the traditional Iceland minus Lisbon index or local ones, but something that would really look at the structure of the planetary waves on a wider scale. So we defined the index as the difference in geopotential height between two boxes, basically one covering this area here and one covering this area here. If you do that, you have an index of the NaO, you standardize this index and you can compute covariances with various fields. So let's start with the simple ones, geopotential height at 500. Well, this is just the result of how you have defined the index and you have a pattern that looks like the traditional NaO definition. Now, if you do that with geopotential height at 850 instead of 500, well, you get a pattern which is very similar, almost in phase, slightly smaller amplitude. And if you look at the difference between the two, basically that gives you the mean temperature in the lower troposphere and that is what you get. And again, perhaps you see a bit more structure here, but roughly the position of the low and high here is roughly similar. So this tells you that this NaO anomaly has roughly an equivalent of a propic structure. So the temperature and the stream function line are in phase with each other. Now, you can also see that most of the signal is actually in this half of the hemisphere. So you can draw a line at 135 west and 45 east and actually look at what happens in this part of the world. And a justification for this is that if you actually do a zonal mean of these fields, then what you get is the blue line. So for example, you see that the zonal mean geopotential gradient is increased during a positive NaO between roughly 35 north and 65 north. And so you have an increase in the strength of the zonal wind in this region. And you have opposite signals to the north and to the south, similar thing at 850. And you can see this mainly comes from the temperature. In the temperature you see basically an increase in the... So you have a stronger zonal mean gradient of temperature so temperature decreases faster with latitude during a positive NaO. Now, what are the green lines? The green lines are what happens if you only consider the contribution from this half. So if you just set the other half to zero and you can see that you get almost the same thing. So this amount justifies the fact that we can study our north Atlantic oscillation basically just concentrating on what happens in this part of the world. So if we think about something which has roughly zonal wave number two structure when you look at the whole hemisphere, then it becomes basically just a wave number one in this half of the hemisphere. Now, an important thing about... I think this is the real crucial point of the whole theory. An equivalent barotropic anomaly cannot affect temperature because the stream function lines and the isotherms coincide. So you have, if you have a low, you also have a cold anomaly. So the flow just goes, follows the isolines of temperature and by definition you have no temperature advection. So in order to have transport of heat by the horizontal flow, you need to have a baroclinic structure. So one where the stream function and the temperature are not in phase. Now, what happens is that... Sorry, we are here. So the NaO anomaly is roughly equivalent barotropic, but this NaO anomaly is superimposed to climatological stationary waves, which are not equivalent barotropic. So if you actually plot... I took the stationary waves at 150 ektopascal in DJF for this later 30 years or so, and what you see here are a plot of meridional velocity, V, and temperature. Now, if the structure was equivalent barotropic, then this would be out of phase with each other. But actually you can see that there are regions here, here, here, here where they have the same sign. This means that if you do the product of this field, these are only the eddy fields, so the stationary waves. So if you multiply this by this, the result is positive. So this tells you that the stationary waves transport heat to the north. So when you think about the effect of an NaO anomaly, even if the NaO anomaly is equivalent barotropic, it can still change the heat transport because it's superimposed to stationary waves, the rest of the stationary waves. You can see here that while the NaO anomaly, you remember, has a dipole in this direction. These stationary waves have a broader meridional scale, so you have the same sign almost from 17.0 to 20. So what happens if an equivalent barotropic anomaly with the dipole structure in the y-direction interacts with a baroclinic wave, which is baroclinic, but it has a broader meridional scale. So here is our idealized version, so you have, now we are just looking at this one, 35 West to 45 East sector. So this, at the top, you have an idealized representation of temperature and V in an equivalent barotropic anomaly with the dipole structure, like the NaO. So this is our sort of NaO-like anomaly. And then you have the stationary waves with the broader meridional scale, like this one. And while the equivalent barotropic anomaly has the V and the T out of phase, we have seen that in the real climatology, the V and T actually are positively correlated. So I have only put just a 15-degree shift between these fields. So these are idealized pure sinusoidal functions.  So this is the result, so basically you can decompose the anomaly in product of the anomaly in V times the climatology in T plus the climatology in V times the temperature anomaly. And because of this particular structure, so while, again, in an equivalent barotropic anomaly these two terms exactly cancel each other, because the climatology is not equivalent barotropic, the VAT-clim term dominates. And so the result is that in the total result is that a positive aneo anomaly would actually increase the heat transport around 60, no, between 60 and 70 degrees north. So if we do the zonal mean of this, you get this curve and this curve has two zero points. Why it has two zero points? One is that because the climatological temperature at the goes to zero here, so that gives you this zero. And this zero curves because the V goes to zero in the middle of the channel, the V of the anomaly. While around 65 to 70 degrees north you have these strong peaks that dominate the negative ones and you have this. So this is the V star to star. Now to get the temperature tendency you need to take the wide derivative of this. And so if you look at this part here is zero, here is zero, so the mean derivative in the southern part of the channel is zero. While the derivative in the northern part of the channel is positive and very strong. So this means that the aneo anomaly will hardly change the temperature in the southern part of the channel but it will cool the northern part. So if you cool the northern part and you don't change the southern part you increase the zonal mean wind. So basically what we are telling is that the eddy part of the aneo anomaly is able to reinforce the zonal mean part of the aneo anomaly. So an eddy will actually the eddy configuration that observation is found together with the increase in zonal mean wind is actually able to increase the zonal mean wind by transporting heat to the north. Now this is an idealized case. Now what happens if you look at the real world? So I've just left the V-star, the star panels there. So these are the equivalent maps derived from observed data. So again you do the covariance of the aneo index with V, you do it with T, you do the product and this is what you get. And again, so this is the product V-star from the aneo anomaly times T-star from the stationary waves. This is the other term, which is smaller. The result is dominated by this term and the curve of the meridional heat transport has these two zero points and the maximum around 65 to 70 degrees north. So the simple framework explains what is the effect of the aneo on the zonal mean flow. So this gives us our positive feedback because you know you have an aneo anomaly in the eddies, this actually is able to increase the zonal wind which is also associated with the positive aneo. Now we need negative feedback. Negative feedback is provided by the heating associated with the surface in fluxes. Now we can actually write the turbulent heat fluxes which are the some more sensible and related heat flux basically as a flux of more static energy at the surface. And the standard aerodynamic bulk formula will tell you you have a coefficient you multiply it by the density of the air and you multiply it by the wind speed at the surface and then the difference in basically more static energy between the surface and the atmosphere just above the surface. Now usually in many simplified models you can actually represent this heating by neglecting the variability in surface mean wind. You say well that's climatological, you are fixed. And so you can probably neglect the the thermal associated with latent heat and then you have a simple linear damping of temperature. This looks fine, but actually if you look at what actually happens in the North Atlantic you find that the surface is fluxes are mainly driven by variation in the surface wind speed. So if I now compute the covariance of the 10 meter u wind with the NaO anomaly then you get well what we expect. So stronger zonal winds basically in the mid-latitudes. So west of the anomaly here east of the anomaly in the tropics. The corresponding variation in the surface heat fluxes is this. And you can explain a lot of this structure by just basically adding a positive anomaly in climatological surface winds. So basically wherever you have a positive anomaly superimposed to positive westerlies you increase zonal wind and you increase the heat fluxes. In this case the heat fluxes are upwards. When the positive anomaly is superimposed to climatological Easterlies you have a negative. When the anomaly Easterlies are superimposed to Easterlies, climatological Easterlies the trade winds again you have positive. So this is a famous triple in heat fluxes that drives the triple in sst anomaly which is associated with the NaO. Now this is the covariance with this NaO index but you can basically get almost the same pattern if instead of doing the NaO index you just take the mean zonal mean 0.850 as your index and you basically correlate this with the heat fluxes and what you get is this. So basically it tells you that over the Atlantic if you know the strength of the zonal mean westerlies you basically know the intensity and distribution of the surface heat fluxes to a pretty large extent and that's because we did in the heat fluxes. So the heat fluxes will put heat into the atmosphere and this is again the temperature anomaly at 850 which is associated with a positive NaO and if you actually compare the temperature with the heating you see that these two anomaly are negatively correlated. You can see here there are some profiles so the red line is the heating produced by these heat fluxes the blue line is the temperature anomaly and okay there's not an exact anticorelation but clearly there is an anticorelation which means that this gives you a negative feedback so you increase the zonal wind you increase the surface heat fluxes but these heat fluxes actually project negatively onto the NaO anomaly and this will give you a negative feedback. Okay, so now we have the ingredients we have the positive feedback and the negative one and we can try to put them together and so again we'll try to do it in a simplest possible way we have a channel that covers the sector that I've described and as in many lower order models you just have three degrees of freedom one for the strength of the zonal wind and one for the wave Now the difference with respect for example to the Charne de Vore is that the Charne de Vore channel was actually a closed channel so the wave was designing such a way that you had zero meridional fluxes at the boundaries which may be desirable but actually here the crucial point is actually what happens at the boundary and the NaO anomaly is the largest amplitude at this extreme so this is what I would call an open channel and of course so you might argue in open channel things can also come from other things may come from the boundary so that's why we call it a heuristic model because we assume that it's fine to describe what happens in the channel so if you believe me then basically you want to describe what happens to the stream function so you have a mean zonal flow minus ui you have a wave pattern which is associated with the NaO which is described by this wave and in particular this phase this particular phase of the wave has this low here over Greenland so it looks like the NaO anomaly and this actually is more in phase with the forcing with the thermal forcing because at high latitudes it's cold over Canada and warm over the ocean so the climatological lency contrast will project on to this pattern but what we want to know is what happens to this phase which looks like the NaO then what we have to consider are the interactions of this wave with a wave of larger meridional extent so the wider scale component of the stationary waves this is important because this will give you the feedback on to the mean zonal flow so the first thing is let's just consider the first element that is just the advection linear advection this is standard planetary wave theory you have just one mode so the mode does not have interactions with itself so it just interacts with the zonal wind so you can use you can basically describe it in evolution by a simple barotropic vorticity advection where the laplacion of the stream function is the vorticity and its derivative is basically given by the advection of relative vorticity by the zonal wind plus the transport of planetary vorticity which is the better term simple standard you find in all textbooks hold on whatever so because your wave is a simple wave it's an eigen function of the laplacion you can further simplify this equation and so the evolution of the stream function is basically proportional proportional to its zonal gradient multiplied by the difference between the two winds one is the actual zonal wind and this is the value of the zonal wind that will make the wave stationary so the wave will become stationary if this is zero so this beta over n square where n square is basically the total wave number of the wave when this is zero the wave is stationary so if we now redefine if we define a u prime variable as the difference of u from this stationary value and you also assume a time scale of about 23 days that will show you why basically if you project this equation onto the simple mode you get some very simple cycle ok so the a is increased by the reduction of b and b is decreased by the reduction of a so this will give you a simple propagation and this factor alpha depends on the time scale you have assumed so we can choose this time scale in order to make this alpha coefficient a and b are the two phases of this wave so a is the coefficient that multiplies the nao pattern and b is the coefficient that multiplies the pattern which is just in phase with the lensy compass they are exactly and they are at 90 degrees so ok so we start from here but then we have to add more terms and we are seeing that what we have to take into account is the divergence of the meridional heat transport the thermal dissipation due to the heat fluxes and in addition you will have some radiative damping ok so we have seen that the divergence of the meridional heat transport is a positive feedback so if the nao is in the positive phase so if a is positive then the u wind is increased so in the equation for u prime you get a multiplied by a positive coefficient then we have to reproduce the effect of the fluxes the fluxes will be somehow proportional to the zonal wind anomaly but they will act as a damping so this h term has a negative sign in the equation and then you have some simple relaxation towards an equilibrium, radiative equilibrium now at this point you need to estimate this gamma and sigma coefficients and you can actually do it from the covariances that I have shown you one can actually compute assuming the scaling in the u what values and also for the radiative damping you can basically estimate the anomaly in long wave radiation associated with the given temperature anomaly and if you do that I have no time to go to the calculations you end up that gamma is roughly equal to 2 sigma is also roughly equals to 2 while the radiative damping is about 0.5 which means that basically the surface fluxes give you an anomaly of 40 watts per square meter the radiative anomaly will give you a flux of about 10 watts per square meter so the radiative time scale will be four times so the time scale is basically the inverse of these coefficients so this basically since the time scale here is 20 days in order to get rid of this alpha term if you have time scales for the heat flux conversion and the heating by the surface flux is of about 10 days this will give you a coefficient of about 2 A, yes the u is the meridional gradient the b is also a stream function difference in that case you don't need A and B just you just relate B with a 90 degree phase yeah, but the revolution is still so basically you have a cycle so if you go back to the in fact this is what this equation tells that this is just a simple cycle between two phase of the waves that are at 90 degrees so what the wind does is that it just moves this wave downstream so basically this is the result of what you are saying that because the waves are at 90 degrees from each other then you have this simple oscillator which is driven by the direction ok, so now we have put these other terms in and the interesting thing is that if you do some simple transformation so first of all we can say ok we can actually check that's another important element here so in the equation for you there is a u star so we assume that there will be some relaxation towards some climatological state however we have written the equation in terms of the deviation from the stationary value so if the climatological state is almost identical to the value that will make this wave stationary then it means that this u star is zero now if you compute what the stationary value is for this wave number 2 it comes out to 12.8 meters per second if you actually look at what the zonal mean wind in this channel is at 500m bar height from error-intimary analysis you get 13.1 so they are really very close so you can basically assume that this justifies our model because if this particular wave is close to stationarity it means that it is quasi resonant and it can display a large low frequency variability so we can set u star to zero gamma is roughly equal to sigma we have seen from observations and so if we define b star as the difference between b sorry b prime difference between b and b star then you get this particular system of 3 equations and if you remember what I showed you for the Lorentz model it's basically formally the same system because basically what I assume is that because I've chosen I've chosen b I've chosen the phase of this wave so that the climatological state is just in phase with b and not with a so basically b is something which is in phase with the lensi contrast and the NaO is actually orthogonal especially orthogonal to the lensi contrast so the lensi contrast will make a strong forcing on b but will not make by construction a forcing on a so this comes out if I had chosen a different phase then you would have had forcing on both a and b but simply because I've chosen the phase in such a way that just b is aligned with the lensi contrast then you don't have an equivalent a star now if you make this transformation you end up with the system which is that looks formally equivalent to the Lorentz model and this b star minus sigma plays the same role as the R parameter in the Lorentz model so basically the is the parameter that forces that determines the amplitude and the separation of the stationary solution so basically it tells you that it's the forcing in the in the planetary way field which projects on b that is the factor that determines the difference between the stationary states the only difference is that this this radiative terms come they are different between the different variables in the Lorentz model while we have basically the same coefficient in all three equations but ok, so if this is formally equivalent then you can expect that the attractor is similar in a suitable range of parameters and well if this b star determines the amplitude you have to say what is b star now it's very difficult to say what is b star because it's a cumulative effect of thermal forcing but also holographic forcing of the climatological waves so here we took an empirical approach we can compute what the stationary solutions are as a function of b and we know what the amplitude of the typical nao anomaly is so we choose a value of b which is consistent with that it turns out to be 12 so if you choose 12 and you integrate the system well you would expect that you get a Lorentz attractor so basically and the green points here so these are basically scattered diagrams of the u-wind against the say nao amplitude this is the u-wind versus the wave which is in phase with the lensi contrast and these are the two waves and what you see on the left are time series for the three coefficients ok, it looks like the Lorentz model so it's fine so this will basically tell you that you will have two nao regimes one corresponding to stronger zonal wind and the positive phase of the a wave and one corresponding to weaker zonal wind and the negative phase of the wave and the green points are given by the stationary solutions well there's one stationary solution which is again zero motion like in Lorentz model and then two stationary solutions which are weakly unstable ok the point is what happens if you change b that's interesting but that would bring us to a lot of other lectures now what this model describes basically just the interaction between the planetary waves and the zonal flow now people may argue well most studies that point out that in the Atlantic the regimes interact strongly with the baroclinic waves and in fact if you actually think at the traditional view of the atmospheric energy cycle the view is that basically the energy transformation are mainly driven by baroclinic eddies there are no stationary waves in this scheme even if as we have seen planetary waves transport heat and convert energy so the traditional view is that you put diabetic heating you create zonal mean available potential energy somehow the forcing of the circulation will actually turn this zonal available potential energy into eddy potential energy then the baroclinic eddies will convert this eddy potential energy into eddy kinetic energy and then when the baroclinic eddy decay then this kinetic energy is transformed back into kinetic energy of the zonal mean flow so there were a couple of very nice papers by Martin Ambaum and Lenkanova they were actually presented here at ICDP about one year ago during the open IFS workshop and in fact I have to give credit to them because it's the heuristic model that gave me that challenged me to find this simple nao model basically what they were interested in was in a much simpler problem so just interaction between the zonal mean flow and the integrated amplitude of baroclinic eddies and what they developed is a simple non-linear oscillation which is analogous to the predator of prey model where basically the amplitude of the eddies grows at the expense of the available potential energy of the zonal mean flow and on the other hand the growth of the eddies due to barotropic instability is proportional to the baroclinic itself so high baroclinic makes the growth of the eddies faster but in the end the eddies extract at the sorry, extract zonal available potential energy so the baroclinic decreases and then you have a nonlinear oscillation and what they've actually estimated the leg between the growth of the of the baroclinic eddies which was quantified by the heat flux the material heat flux and the baroclinic which was basically index of static zonal mean static stability and they found some leg so the eddy growth legs by after a couple of days the maximum in baroclinity and you have a nonlinear oscillation so if this is an important mechanism and as they have argued you might say well your model doesn't take this into account at all so what happens if in fact there are baroclinic eddies that go at the expense of the zonal flow so the minimal way to do that is that we can actually so far we have assumed an equivalent barotropic structure so our zonal mean flow was just determined by one number but you can be a bit more specific and they compose the zonal mean wind into just the thermal part which is proportional to the horizontal temperature gradient and that is basically what we were talking about before and a fully barotropic part which is the same at all levels and so at the surface the zonal wind will actually be just the barotropic part and so in this energy cycle it means that the growth will the eddies, baroclinic eddies will go by extracting energy from the zonal mean available potential energy so they will decrease this component but then put back energy into this component of the flow so you need one more variable here and you need one more variable here now there's definitely not the time to discuss in detail all the coefficients of this model but basically what we have done is that we have added an equation for the barotropic part this basically tells you that the barotropic part grows by the kinetic energy which is put by the decay of baroclinic eddies and then is done by surface friction and the eddies actually grow by extracting energy from the thermal part of the zonal wind and decay by surface friction and the barotropic conversion into the zonal mean flow so these are basically two nonlinear oscillations like the ones that Ambarov and Novak have developed so the question is if you add these processes will the attractor be totally destroyed just be turned into a simple oscillation or not and well I don't have time to go into the estimation of these parameters in fact it was done quite empirically but the result is no so the attractor is likely modified so again these are the scatter diagrams these screen points just for reference are the stationary solution of the previous model so you can see how the attractor is actually shifted with respect to its original position but roughly the variability so you still have the two regimes what you have of course is more variability on sub-seasonal scales and you have a variability in the zonal mean wind first the thermal part grows then the eddy grows and then the eddy decay and the barotropic part grows so you have actually three lines in the top diagram these again are the two phase of the planetary waves that have a bit more wiggles but still they display this regime and so actually we can look at the relationship between these the zonal mean at the eddies in more detail first of all we can plot the amplitude of the eddies as a function of the thermal part of the zonal wind so basically the baroclinity and as we expect well on average there is a positive relationship so when there is more baroclinity you have stronger eddies but if we look at the detail as the time relationship this is the basically the lag correlation amplitude of the baroclinic eddies and in red the thermal part of the wind and in green the barotropic part of the wind and the axis x axis gives you the lag between the wind and the eddies so this basically tells you that the eddies get larger about three days after the peak in the baroclinity and then they start to decay and then they put back energy into the barotropic part so the barotropic part of the wind as its maximum about five days after the peak in the baroclinic eddies and you have an oscillatory behavior because you basically have two nonlinear oscillators like the one by Ambar and Novak ok, so we didn't want somehow this part it's basically just to demonstrate that this regime structure is not actually destroyed if you add interactions by baroclinic eddies of course you could choose another way of specifying this interaction but since this has been not quite discussed in the literature we just wanted at least to have this type of interactions in the model so basically what we have seen is that the regimes in the NAO can exist because of the balance of a positive and negative feedback that involves the zonal the eddy component of the NAO anomaly and the heat fluxes the positive feedback is due to horizontal heat transport by the wave that interacting with climatological stationary waves which are baroclinic can actually modify the transport at the northern edge of the channel and therefore can either increase or decrease the strength of the thermal wind the negative feedback is due to the thermal damping caused by the heating anomalies driven by surface fluxes and because the surface fluxes are so dependent on the zonal wind speed again this becomes just a simple feedback between the strength of the zonal wind and the thermal damping of the NAO anomaly so adding these two feedbacks to a simple cycle we just described the rotational action of the wave then you get the three variable model which is formally equivalent to the Lorentz model and therefore like the Lorentz model it has a chaotic attractor with two regimes and that's nice so we can say well that's some justification for assuming that positive NAO and negative NAO are real regimes and see if in addition to zonal wind and planetary waves you add the effect of the bioclinic eddies so we have used a simple theory developed in previous papers to do that and basically the good news is that it doesn't destroy the chaotic attractor it just puts basically more variability in the subsesional scale so that's almost work in progress so we still have to finally get it into the literature but we thought that well this is a school of multiple equilibria and so this was quite a fitting topic for that again it's a very simplified model you can say well it's a gross simplification of reality as any simplified model is but at least it gives you a conceptual framework that somehow justifies these observational results the other thing that they can do is that because the calculation that are down to estimate for example this gamma and sigma coefficients these have been done on real data you can do them on models so for example instead of just using these simple metrics that we used to see whether our sim in 5 or sim in 6 models give a good representation of the mean in all the variables we could actually compute these coefficients from the models and see whether they have the right strength of the positive and negative feedbacks and because the regimes come out because this gamma and sigma are both similar and they are both too so it's their balance that gives these regimes if one is dominant over the others you will get something very different so in the future we hope that we could actually repeat these calculations of the strength of the feedback maybe from model data it might become boring I don't know whether we will get anything out of it this could be a way of actually hopefully seeing whether the models have the right dynamics to reproduce DNA regimes and that concludes my lecture so thanks a lot for your help thanks


Hello, everyone. In this module, I'm going to demonstrate you how you can create or a component and how you can use or a components in application. So let's first understand what is a component. So a component is a bundle that includes a definition resource return in markup and may include additional optional resources like a controller, style sheet, and so on. So this way your component looks like. So in our previous module, I already showed you from where we can create components. So let's understand it in detail so that you know like how to create or a components in Salesforce. So I am closing these files. So this is a component which is having extension as dot CMP. And this is our application which is having dot app as extension, right? Why I created the these lightning components. So you might have focused on this lightning component configuration. So here various checkboxes are available. So these I will be covering in the next module. So I will tell you like why these checkboxes are available and what is the relation of these checkboxes with this lightning bundle. And while we create lightning applications, so we see this. So in later modules, you will get to know why we have this. So let's create our first lightning component. So here, as I already told you, we need to use HTML related code here. So these are default tags, which are available automatically. So now I am using p-tag and writing my first lightning or component and saving this. Now this component is created which is having simple p-tag. If you want to render this or you want to test it, so you need to create an application. And in this application, you can call that component. So you need to write C colon. So all the components that we create automatically goes under the C namespace. So you need to write C colon and then demo comp. And you can close this. Now one more difference you can see if you are on this component. So here you won't see any preview button. But if you go to your application, so here you will see this preview button. So if you click on this preview button, so your application will be launched. And here in the URL, you can see lightning.force.com slash C is the new namespace then slash demo app dot app. And it is showing my first lightning or a component. Now it is right now not using lightning design. So if you want to apply that, so in this application, you need to write this. Extends equals to force column SLDS. And here you can see it is automatically refreshed. And now it is showing the output as Salesforce lightning design system SLDS. So SLDS stands for Salesforce lightning design system. So you need to apply this because we are creating custom app. You can also use this lightning component on lightning experience in the pages like app page, home page, or record page. So if you are using your lightning component on those pages, in that case, you don't need to use this because those are already rendered under lightning experience. But here we are creating this app as a custom application. So we need to use extents equals to force column SLDS so that Salesforce lightning design system can be applied automatically. So this way I created component as well as application. So if I go back to the slides, so what is an application? An application is just a spatial kind of component. So application is also component. You can think of an app as being different from a component in only two meaningful ways. So first is an app uses aura column application tag instead of aura column component. So if I take you to component, so here aura column component tag is available. And here aura column application tag is available. And another difference is only an app has a preview button in the developer console. So that I already explained you and this is the UI of application where at top right corner you can see preview button is available. Now, if you want to create one more component, so let me create one more component. So I'm naming it as demo comp one clicking on submit. And here I'm writing one more lightning component and I'm saving this. So in this application, you can render more than one components. So it depends like in which order you call the components in the same order they will be rendered on the UI. So if I take you here, so you can see both are rendered and pages refreshed automatically. Now if I go here, if I add some more content, so this time you see like I just modified the component. I didn't modify application. That's why it is not refreshing automatically. So if you modify the app, so it refreshes automatically, if you modify the component in that case, you need to refresh the page. So here you can see output is displayed. So initial two lines are from okay initial first line is from component number one and the last two lines are from component number two. And if you change the order, let's say like this, I am reusing the component one and this time you will see it is refreshed automatically because I use the sorry, I updated the lightning app. Now here I'm using HR tag saving this. So you will see the difference horizontal rule is available and output of components are divided. Right. So this way, if you want to reuse any component again and again, so it means you can place one component twice on a page. Now if I remove all this from here, so here I'm rendering demo comp one and in demo comp one I'm going to use or I'm going to call demo comp. So this is also possible. So earlier I created two separate components and I used both of them in single application. But now I'm calling demo comp in demo comp one and demo comp one is rendered here. Right. So if I refresh this page, so again, you will see the same output and everything is displayed like whatever is in demo comp, it is also rendered and whatever is available in demo comp one, it is also rendered. And if you want to apply horizontal rule, so that is also possible. So see initial first line is from demo comp and second and third line is from demo comp one. So this way you can call one component into another. So this is also called nesting of components. So if you are calling demo comp one in this application, then only demo comp will be rendered. So they have kind of dependency. So this is also known as like parent child component. So demo comp one will be parent and demo comp will be treated as child. So this is all about how to create components and applications in developer console to create lightning components with the help of our framework.
