Which one is better? Pattern master or kicks? In this video, I'm going to talk about both and give my conclusion after two seasons in the field. Let's go. All right, guys, before we get started with this video, I want to say a huge shout out and thank you to Ridge Wallet for sponsoring this video. Yes, guys, this is a wallet. Look how thin it is. Look how light and compact it hardly weighs anything. I've been using it for like three weeks now. So on the one side, it has a nice spot where you can put your thumb and push the cards out and grab what you need to use. And then on the back, it has a cash strap and you can put your cash. You fold it three ways to try fold. They have over 30 different colors that you can use in this wallet. I've got the carbon fiber, which I love. Plus, it's got a really cool look. This is a perfect father's day gift.  Check down in the description or in the comment that I pinned in this video. And you guys can get 15% off with that code MVM. Use it like I do. It's a great product. Welcome back to the channel. I'm Titus with Mid-Valley Mercenaries. And I want to preface this video by saying every single shotgun, even if it's the same making model, can shoot differently no matter what choke you use if you use the same choke in each one of them. So I'm shooting for the last two seasons when I tried these two chokes out with my Browning A5 12 gauge with a 28 inch barrel. And these are the two chokes I'm going to be talking about today. This one is the Pattern Master Code Black Duck. And this is the Kicks High Flyer Full Choke. Now I just want to take a few things that each company gives on their website on information that you can find about these choke tubes. To be honest with you, I love both these. And it was really hard for me. I had started out with the Kicks Choke first. And then last season, for the whole season, I used the Pattern Master Code Black Duck. I've got about one or two seasons with the Kicks High Flyer Full. But I want to go into each one individually, give the information that comes off the website, and let you guys know the details about it. And then give my conclusion at the end. So stay tuned. If you guys haven't already, check out our podcast, which is a lot of waterfowl content, but also a lot of other different things too as well. But I would say probably three to one is waterfowl content. It's the MVM show. And you can check it out on all platforms. Let's start with the Pattern Master Code Black Duck. Now remember, their Pattern Master has a lot of different things. And I'll be honest with you, several years ago, I tried Pattern Master. Their original, the classic, I guess, what they call it. I personally did not like it. I did not like how it shot out of my Browning A5 12-gauge with a 28 inch barrel. So I was very hesitant in trying this. But a friend of mine had mentioned that has another channel, Hunts in Arkansas. He said, you need to try out.  And I was like, man, I've tried Pattern Master before, but obviously it's a different type. And trust me, it is different. So number one, it is one of the only, if not the only, non-constructive choke tube. It says that it has substantially more energy on target due to a wad stripping technology that they have. This technology is their patented stud ring. And actually, if you look inside of it, you could actually see that stud ring. What this stud ring does, and they designed it for is to basically slow down or stop the wad just for a millisecond. By doing this, they're able to tighten the shot string. It says on their website up to 80%.  I don't want it kind of spread out, which is what a shot string is. Usually a shot string can stretch out quite a bit over a period of 20, 30, 40 yards. It gets longer and longer as time goes on. But what this is designed to do is keep that solid impact and have all the shot hit the bird or whatever it is you're shooting all at once. Also by this pause, the shot charge leaves the barrel undisturbed by the wad and gases causing what they say is beautiful patterns on paper. Let's reset again, beautiful and dense patterns is what the website says. The exact verbatim. And then lastly, it has a bronze non-reflective finish, which I do like that. And it's pretty cool looking. And I supposedly, it gets darker the more it's touched and the more it's used. But mine's only a season old and you can definitely tell it's starting to get that darker look on it. Now, here's my thoughts about this. That was from the website. That's what they say. Now, my thoughts after a whole year of use in the field and trust me, I've been, I think it was 55 hunts that I was on this year. And I would say probably 45 to 47 of those was with my 12 gauge with this choke. I will say beautiful patterns before season. You can check the video out right here, whatever spot it's going to be on. You can check this video out. The patterns were beautiful on this and in that video, you're going to see me struggle a little bit to admit that. And I don't know why that is. I had been using kicks, like I said, maybe for two years. So I felt like I had confidence in it, a loyalty in it. And I just was hard for me to say, but the proof is in the pudding. Like they say, and you could see that the patterns on this choke were definitely better. There was less flyers, which is always a big thing. That mean like flyers are shot that can just really go off target, but there was definitely less flyers, if any. And the best thing that I love about this choke bar none. And why I went to it and gave it a chance is the impact on the birds that it has. It's insane. What I wanted was to blow feathers off birds. I didn't, I'm not saying I wanted to ruin the meat. I know a lot of people have seen Thomas and I's shots this year and really it was never mined with this choke. It was more on Thomas's, but he was using a factory choke. And there's a few times it did even ruin the meat, but that's not our end goal. That's not what we want. That's not what we're shooting for. But what I want is to put these birds to a dead stop and put them in the grave. I don't want no kicking. I don't want no flinching after I shoot them. And I'll tell you, if you've hunted long enough, you know mallards are the toughest birds and you could shoot them with the best ammo at 10 yards and they could still somehow, some way crawl away and get in the toolies or wherever the habitat that you hunt in is. And I didn't want that. I wanted something that's going to be a showstopper. And I will tell you this, that is what I love about this choke tube. All the pattern, all the shot hitting that bird and punching that bird, even if it's at 30 or 40 yards, I'm telling you it knocks the snot out of them. So that's how I feel and that's my thoughts about this. I'll give you a conclusion of both comparisons at the end and which one I would rather pick, but let's go into the kicks high flyer choke right now. All right, here she is, the kicks high flyer full choke. And as you can tell, that was one thing I did like is where it came into the barrel. That's the difference right there. If I'm not too close to the camera, but let me move my hand here. That's how much more, you know, it would stick out of the top of my barrel because that's where it would seat in. So it was nice to have a little bit shorter, but it's not that big of a deal on kicks high flyer site. And again, these are both companies that I trust. These chokes are made from solid heat treated 17-4 pH grade round bar stock. And what I like about that is, is the fact that the use of a solid bar stock actually helps or eliminates problems with weak seams because it's all one piece and that's what it's made out of. So that alone is good to know because of the durability and the strength of these choke tubes. Now in this choke, there are no blocks, there are no stud rings that as kick says deform your shot or inhibit your pattern. All kicks chokes have unique conical and parallel sections. The conical section, what they call it is actually where the choking happens. And then the parallel section is where the wad stripping action happens. If you'll notice on this choke tube, it's diagonally ported at 135 degrees away from the shooter, which also reduces side blast. And it also acts as a braking system, which slows the wad down to provide superior patterns. Now kick says it improves pattern density up to 20%. And I think another thing that we all know what this does is it reduces muzzle jump and felt recoil, which ends up giving you faster, more accurate follow up shots. Now my thoughts with this bottom line, I'm very confident with this choke. It has proven itself to me time and time again. And just having the confidence in your mind when you're shooting birds, just having that confidence. And knowing when you're going to pull the trigger, it's going to do what you need it to do. And it's going to knock the birds down that right there is everything you need, whether or not reality is it's the best when you have confidence in your shooting. That is key. I remember the first time I shot a bird with this choke, that bird was easily 40 yards. And that's our max of shooting birds. And four yards is a lot farther than you think. A lot of people say, I shot about 40 yards. Well, when you end up marking out or stepping out 40 yards or using a rangefinder, like, um, I don't really shoot hardly birds ever at that range. But I do know that this shot was easily 40 yards. And I mean it folded it like he was 10 yards away. And I was just honestly, I was shocked of how hard that bird crumpled. I'm definitely not advocating everybody to do that.  And I was confident at that, but I hadn't shot it with this specific choke yet at that distance. So that was my only hold back just a little bit. But once I seen what it did, I definitely got that confidence right back up. Another thing is it does beautiful patterns. Honestly, the patterns on this choke are beautiful. I think I mainly use heavy shot products, heavy steel, heavy hammer, heavy metal, heavy bismuth. I even dipped in a little bit last year with the heavy 12. Now I didn't shoot it with this choke, but I will tell you kicks chokes with the Browning a five does great job with the heavy shot products. But I also tested it with a bunch of other products prior a couple years ago. So I will say all around this choke does good with most brands. Now the conclusion, which one would I take in the field and which one would I use? I will say I'm always going to keep this choke. I'm always going to keep the kicks higher flyer full close by if I ever need it. But bottom line is after a season of use, I will definitely be going with the pattern master code black duck. The knockdown power that this has with the ammo that I use and with the gun I use is incredible. It's impressive. I love it. It doesn't damage the meat.    And last year, I mainly shot heavy business out of this, this choke. And again, I shot heavy 12, which was unbelievable. I've never seen nothing like it. I almost felt like I was cheating, but it is expensive. So I pretty much stuck with heavy business, even though that's not cheap as well. But I just know that the business, the penetration that it has is the best thing. And then you pair that with an amazing choke. It's just deadly. I had very rarely had cripples, which Intel means I shoot less shells. So even if I'm paying more for the shells, I'm shooting less when you have a deadly combo, like a pattern master co black duck and then the ammo that I'm using. So that's my conclusion. I hope this video kind of gives you guys a thought to think about something else. I'm not saying you have to use an aftermarket choke like these two, but I am saying why not shoot the best you can and have the best pattern and have the best confidence in what you're shooting when you're shooting at the waterfowl. So you can be more ethical, harvest more birds, shoot less shells and be happy with the products that you use. Let me know down in the comments, what you guys use and the combo that you like the best. Don't forget to subscribe, give this video a thumbs up if you liked it, give those products a try, see what you like best and I'll see you guys on the next one.


Ukraine can destroy the Russian troops stationed in Transnistrian region of Moldova at any time. Natalia Yumenyuk, head of Ukraine's Joint Press Center of the Operational Command South, stated that the Russian contingent in the unrecognized territory of Transnistria does not pose a threat as Ukraine has complete information about its concentration and composition. The statement comes after a 28th of February Congress where Transnistrian MPs appealed to Russia's Federation Council and State Duma for protection against growing Moldovan pressure. There was speculation that Putin might announce actions regarding Transnistria, potentially bolstering Russia's military presence or even annexing the region, during his address to Russia's parliament on the 29th of February. However, Putin did not mention Transnistria in this speech. Natalia Yumenyuk stated that the situation remains under the control of the Defence Forces, emphasizing that the border with unrecognized Transnistria is securely protected and fortified. She explained that defence measures were established at the start of the full-scale invasion and have been maintained by the State Border Guard Service and other Defence Forces units. Yumenyuk highlighted the area's danger due to the Russian contingent's presence leading to tightened control from the beginning. She assured that the situation is under absolute control, dismissing current concerns as information injections. Yumenyuk added, We have clearly studied the contingent in Transnistria. We know its concentration, internal and quantitative composition, and we absolutely understand how to adequately counteract it. The spokesperson reassured the civilian population that the contingent does not pose a critical threat, suggesting that any concerns could only be related to information injections or provocations such as shooting near the border. Russia developed a new weapon to shoot down US and European missiles. The Russian military conducted tests of the S-500 Prometheus air defence system which they claim is capable of shooting down hypersonic targets report defence express. Supposedly, during these tests, the S-500 system demonstrated the ability to shoot down hypersonic aerial targets. As an example, they cite prospective western hypersonic missiles, combat units of intercontinental ballistic missiles or guided warheads as well as short-range ballistic missiles. Russia claims that such capabilities of the S-500 were supposedly confirmed during the launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile from the Tula nuclear-powered submarine of the Russian Northern Fleet which was launched in the Laptev Sea. Russian authorities attribute the successful destruction of targets to powerful radars, electronic computing systems and highly manoeuvrable anti-aircraft missiles. Among publicly available information, it is noted that the Russian anti-aircraft missile system is a new generation of anti-aircraft missile systems which are expected to apply the principle of separate resolution of tasks for the destruction of ballistic and aerodynamic targets. As early as 2021, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov claimed that the S-500 system was allegedly in serial production. There are also plans to develop a naval version of the promising S-500 anti-aircraft missile system including for installation on the Storm aircraft carrier project. Previously, a representative of the Defense Intelligence of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Major General Vadim Skibitsky stated that during the war, Russia transferred air defense systems from the Far East and the Northern region to Moscow and the occupied Crimea. However, the power of defense does not always correspond to the aggressor's statements. The representative of the military intelligence reported that the most powerful complex they have in service is the S-400, but even it is not entirely perfect. There are cases when their equipment fails. The well-known Panzer also misses our aircraft, which ultimately reach their targets, he added. Russia has become a menace to France in view of its actions, French Prime Minister. Russia has become a menace to France in view of its actions since the onset of the Ukraine conflict. French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal told the Senate defending President Emmanuel Macron's earlier suggestion of potentially sending Western troops to Ukraine. Macron's words came after a meeting of Ukraine's sponsors in Paris on Monday. No consensus was reached on the prospect of sending ground troops to aid Kiev, he told the press. However, the French President promised to stop at nothing to make sure Russia does not win in Ukraine. Responding to questions in the French Senate about the remarks, Attal insisted that Russia has hardened its stance towards France over the course of the conflict. He accused Moscow of spreading false information while engaging in attempts of destabilization and cyberattacks. The reality is that Russia is a direct and immediate threat to France on all levels. He insisted that the French leader's statements were responsible and echoed Macron's view on the need to ramp up military aid to Ukraine, explaining that he may have been speaking of troops being sent to provide technical support to Kiev's army rather than to fight. Attal suggested that such a deployment may include training Ukrainian troops in ground to air defense or protecting certain borders. European officials balked, however, quickly denying that they had any intention to put boots on the ground in Ukraine. From skeptics Hungary and Slovakia to staunch pro-Ukraine nation such as Poland and Germany, governments insisted that no such plans were in motion. The same message came from NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg and Washington.


Hi guys, this is Jason Zach from Nathaniel School of Music. In this lesson we are going to learn how to improvise on the piano and pretty much any instrument or maybe you are a producer or an arranger using a DAW watching this. You can use this technique for any kind of improvisation or composition with just two notes in a beat.  So the rule or this kind of jail cell which I am putting you in for this particular lesson is going to be one beat and two notes.  Well you could have nothing if you want to take a break which is nice at times but one beat, two notes. So a beat of music doesn't mean it should have a sound. A beat is basically a time container for a musical event. A musical event could be a note, a chord or anything that produces sound for a human or hopefully other animals as well. And inside that beat you can even have subdivisions if ever you choose to divide those. So in a beat you don't have to necessarily have one note. You can have nothing, you can even have a rest but you can divide that beat into two. You can divide it into three, you can divide it into four and then that container starts having many more subcontainers. Sort of like now if you divide by two you can have maybe the same container with salt and pepper but imagine mixing the two together. That would be horrific, isn't it? So the container concept used in music is very applicable and useful because the length of the container or the volume or the area or any which way you look at the container it's an amount of time which elapses. So if music has a tempo of let's say 60 beats per minute then every beat is going to flow at the rate of one second. So your container is one second. In that one second you can do whatever you want. So in your software if you do 60 BPM or in your app or metronome application if it says 60 BPM you're basically moving like a clock. If you're saying 120 BPM which is a commonly used BPM in recording you could say that the speed of the beat is 500 milliseconds or it's moving half of a second. Now using all of that we're going to just take two notes and in that beat we're going to look at all the different ways of playing the two notes using the beat divisions. Nothing other than beat divisions and then we'll try and get some poetic framework into play and see how we can combine all these binary rhythm patterns together using very simple poetic concepts. So stick around till the very end of this lesson because there'll be a good stepwise flow as we go along the lesson. Right and before we get started all my handwritten notes for this lesson are waiting for you on our Patreon page. Do consider heading over there and checking it out. You'll also get staff notation, MIDI tracks not only for this lesson but all of our lessons that we have been doing for years and years on our YouTube channel. And don't forget to hit that subscribe and turn on the bell icon for regular notifications either right now or else after the lesson would still be great. Cheers and let's get cracking. So in order to improvise over this system where you have one beat and two notes two notes in other words, note one, note two, you know two of those hits, two sounds we need a scale right. So let's just take a simple scale which we all tend to enjoy for improv the pentatonic scale. There are two kinds of pentatonic scales the major pentatonic which is one, two, three, five, six octave and it comes down or else you can do the minor pentatonic which we'll focus on in this lesson. I'm on the key of A, so A minor pentatonic would be A, C, D, E, G, A, A, G, E, D, C, A. If you build that intervallically, root minor third of flat three, perfect fourth, perfect fifth, minor seventh or dominant seventh or flat seven. The octave just finishes the climb, okay. So A minor pentatonic, we'll use this for the lesson but you can use a chord set of chord tones. You can use another scale, you can use a pattern of notes, you can do thirds of some scale. It could be major, minor, Dorian or whatever. So the lesson is not about too much of theory. I don't want to get too much out of rhythm because rhythm is the forefront of today's lesson and I believe very strongly that if you know your rhythm in and out, if you can bring it out instinctively, you can improvise on the spot, you can do anything on the fly. While a lot of other things like harmony and scales, you can just do it by reading the chord charts, you can do it by practice, regular scale exercise and patterns but rhythm is something you have to internalize. Once you get all of those patterns into your system, it just comes out magically in some assortment which a lot of people including yourself will enjoy. So let's just take A minor pentatonic and start with a simple framework wherein I need two notes in a beat. So what should I do? I have to divide the beat at least by two units, isn't it? If I don't divide the beat, then I can have a max of one note or I can have two notes whacked together in a harmonic way but in this lesson it's about melodic movement. So if I have to get in two notes, I have to divide the beat into two units at the bare minimum. So to divide by two, I can say one and two and three and four and one and two. Now I can use the word and three to signify the subbeat and you're gonna get one permutation, one and two and three and like this, right? One and two and three. So you'll get two notes, but you have a pentatonic scale so you can move around the scale. Hmm. One and two and three and four and one and two and three and four and one and two and three and four and one and two and three and four and one. Now if you'd like to go in thirds, maybe minor scale thirds and two and three and four and one and two. Now one way to make this interesting is just look at it in a binary way. You have two notes. They are going up. You can also take the same notes and go down. So A, C, C, A. So in a binary sense in terms of pitch, you either go up pitch or down pitch. So you can do a lot of interesting things. However, the rhythm is rather same, isn't it? One and two and three and four and one and two and three and four and one and two and three and four and one and. Now if you play this for a long time, that's going to sound rather monotonous and also confusing at times because if you play too many notes, then one and two and three and you won't remember.  So we need to create those gaps and the gaps right now are non-existent. You could also do one and two and three and four, one and two and three and four. You can combine the two quavers, one and two and three and four and one and two with some pauses, four, one and two. And now there's some, there's a story being told. There are some sentences being constructed, one and two, three and four as opposed to one and two and three and four and one and two and three. So basically stop whenever you want is what I'm trying to say.  Now it's making a statement with that gap with some build up, I guess without gaps with gaps. It's more anthemic, right? It creates the hook of the song so to speak. Okay, so rhythmically speaking that's all you can do. You can have some gaps or don't have the gaps but the division system is still two. So I'd like to have more options. So what do I do? I can divide further. I can divide by three. I can divide by four. I'll come to three later in the lecture. But if I divide by four, I now have four mini containers in the space of that one original container which I had one, two, three, four. The container became one and two and three and four and now it can become one and two and three and four and so more spaces, more slots to squeeze in different kinds of ingredients which if you now place them at one and two and and now just observe one and two and three. It feels different to put a note at the end. One and two and three. It feels remarkably different to put it at the ear now. One and three and four. So what was once? One, two and three and four will now be one. And even the E sound different. One E and a two E and a three and a four E and a one E. So every subdivision has its own personality, almost has its own energy or emotion if you want to use the word. I would say personality or energy. There's a different kind of energy. If you play on the beat, one, two, three, it feels normal. One, well, one and two and three. Now some motion. One and two, some excitement while one E and a two E and it's almost like a shock you got when you play the E or perform the E. One E and a two E and a three E versus one E and a two E and a three E and a four E is very groovy. It almost if you want to catch it, you have to move to in order to use that in your in your improvisation. So now if I do some displacements because I've already done divided by two. So I have one and into the play. Now what do I want to do? Start dividing by four. One E and a two E and and now instead of doing one and why don't I do one? I can do things like that. So I'm now shifting one E and so one on and then the let's see how that goes with the A minor. And because it's irregular, you don't have to take too many gaps like we did with Quavers. Quavers are actually getting boring because they're very symmetric rhythmically speaking. So every note is you're talking in a very monotonous way with no gaps, with no punctuation. While with the sixteenth note usage now where we use a dotted Quaver one E and then a semi Quaver or a sixteenth note, it gives you that sense of rhythmic excitement. One E and a two and I don't even need gaps on the pentatonic or some other scale. Notes are not very very important in this lesson just to pin ourselves down. I've given us a minor pentatonic. So we did, we displaced the and and moved it to the A one E and a two E and a three E and a four E and a one E and to compare with normal Quavers and a two E and a three and a three and a one E and so what if we combine that Quavers dotted. You don't even need pauses because there's a lot of variety you know. So what did we do? We moved the and to the E we can do something else. Why don't we take the and and move it to the E and you get one E and E and a three E and a four E and a four. Just to compare with the other one with the E, just ending with two two Quavers for that contrast. Now one E, one E, one E and back to one E and a two versus so it's still two notes in a beat and I think the music is getting pretty interesting at this stage especially if you do combinations you know so what do I know so far I know my quavers dotted quaver and then a semi quaver or dotted quaver and a sixteenth note then I have sixteenth note and a dotted quaver all quavers just combining these three we can go pretty much on and on with the same five-note scale pretty much and just these three rhythm patterns but there are more so let's move forward there are quite a few binary options actually there are nine which I have for you in this lesson the nine came about primarily as the maths gave us the nine which is two notes in one beat so let's move forward we can do one E and a two E and a three and a four E and a why not this you call this pattern four and a two E and three and four so I'm keeping that cluster at the end and the E and it's always nice to contrast that with the pulse especially because you don't have a one going on now okay so you have just this gang of notes now created first of all so let's look at those four rhythms together we first have a dotted quaver and ending off with a semi-quaver money and hit points one E and a two E and now we have a cluster at the one in the E you can hold on the E for the till the end of the beat or choke it if you wish but very similar because the hit points are the same then you can have a cluster at the E and the and so you're not starting on you're starting off and last cluster of the 16s will be and okay so that pretty much covers our divisions of four right using 16 nodes where else can we place oh there's one more which I think is the most exciting that would be whacking on the E and the earth so you're giving up the one which is very lazy you're giving up the and which is kind of normal you're hitting only at the E's and the earth so the only way you can play this is to play it with a lot of excitement so if I just take an A minor chord maybe with a pulse you know you get that one E and a one E and a so this will always work well when you do combination so if you come back to quavers and then back to quavers so those of you are into Canada music riffs might like that so so so so I'm what am I doing here I'm doing two quavers one E and a two E and and then ending it off with an E and an earth one E and a two E and a one E and a two E and a three so if not improvisation and making a melody for for the right hand or the treble clef you can also use this to create some low-end riffs okay now if I get out of that mode and do something like what am I doing now one E and a two E and E and in the second beat so pump you can make these little riffs you don't even have to play this on the piano you can kind of fool around in a recording application using your midi editor if you had something very symmetrical and and and or too many notes just remove a few and then move them around and see which one sounds good to you okay these are just permutations for the for the beat at one beat okay so what do we have dividing by four we have five of them we have five rhythm patterns right and dividing by two we just have one one and two and so one E and a two E and a three and a four E and a one E two E three E four E and a and a and a and a E and E and E and E and E so those are the five options which you can start putting together and that's about it when it comes to dividing by four now what what's left we can divide by three perhaps we can divide the beat by anything but why forget three three is a very common division triplets as we call them so one two three four one triplet two triplet three one and a two and so if you get into this wavelength two and a three and a four and a one and we can start doing permutations first start with all three but what was our rule in this lesson two notes in a beat so this is not gonna work so what do we do let's knock off the middle one one and a two and a three and a four and a one and a two and a three and a four and one some might also want to call this swing because it kind of is swinging isn't so we've removed the middle one why not remove the first one so Kitta Kitta Kitta Kitta one and a two and a three you can also remove the last one and do one and one and two and tuck it tuck tuck so what are all my triplet permutations knocking off the middle one then knocking of the last triplet so one and if you play with just the triplets now the idea is to fool around with all those triplet permutations and you have a few more I'm just trying to trap you into only doing you know have a disciplined approach now when you start improvising without a plan you might end up going into your zone very fast the reason you tend to go into that at least it happens to me and it becomes counterproductive to what we are trying to achieve which is to create new pieces of music the challenge is you tend to play what you already know because that's your survival instinct so the first 10 minutes is crucial or first 15 20 minutes is crucial when you improvise have a proper plan write it down and see this is what I have to do do it very diligently in a very textbook way and then roll with it and then go into a creative environment and then you don't have to care but I would say give the first 10 to 15 minutes for music you know for the rules and regulations which music already has for the maths that it possesses okay and then the creativity should naturally happen you shouldn't just play the the keyboard or the guitar and just say oh I'm going to be creative that's not how it works you will become creative if you get into the environment or into the world of music so with improvisation this is what works for me I start with a plan even a simple exercise on the piano could end up being an improvisation and an improvisation could end up being a song because what I tend to tell people and even myself is improvisation is just nothing but fast composition and composition may be called a slow improvisation okay so maybe it's the same thing so we have about nine rhythm patterns right actually we have we have discussed nine there was one with dividing by two quavers five dividing by four semi-quaver involved with a dotted quaver and some rest and that is six and then three triplets so if I want to put this together you could just kind of take it to town do combinations but I don't want to leave you until we have something very defined and very structured so for this look at it like how people write poems or how people build rhyming phrases in general you know even most musical genres if you look at blues for example it follows an aab structure which takes you across 12 bars of songwriting okay so generally you will have things like a b a b or a a a b so if you what is a and b a is phrase one or motif one as I am considering b would be motif two so if I take the an a phrase which is this one one en or two en that's my a phrase if I take phrase b I want to combine them together so let's start with maybe three a's and a b see how that sounds so that triple a was and the b will be something different so a b and you can even do double a double b that'll sound that'll inspire you differently okay or maybe a b a b a quick interchange or everyone's favorite abba a double b a now if you're getting a bit confused to remember what you're composing yes you could record it on your phone but you can compose it such that maybe a is a slightly different direction of movement maybe you could go ascending direction for a that's your up and b could always be down so it's the same abba but you're just making it interesting for yourself okay by looking at different notes different directions of notes what about a triple b how does that work double a b a have we done that no I don't think so so ab a and if ever we bring in a c for some energy maybe I can compose a phrase as a a b c and the c could be that high energy phrase one so maybe something like that's your b then at the three beat and why I did four beats so a basically is a beat with and contained in it is a motif why I did four is because our common time signature is four by four in music so a a b c you can even do a b a c which will be a lot of fun so you get the idea you can do these combinations of notes and see how it goes from there because you need structure whenever you play an instrument and whenever you're composing or creating anything you need an environment to be a very respectful high energy and very inspiring environment for that I like the mats with a lot of options and definitely I would always practice or try to practice with a pen paper or a tablet if you use one like I tend to do sometimes so keep that in mind plan before you play so if you were to take one thing from this lesson it would probably be to plan before you improvise to plan before you get into a creative zone and have all your options on the plate try it out give 15 to 20 minutes to music and then let it do something to you which you have no clue about that's generally how I get into composing or improvising or producing or doing anything in this field always have start with a plan and then see where it goes so in this lesson a plan was pretty simple one beat two notes so then think what is possible divide by two divide by three divide by four how many options nine now when we put them together it'll be like a jigsaw puzzle it'll be too difficult to solve so we want a more poetic structure with some phrasing so things like a a a b and where did all that come from again permutations and combinations because how many a's can you have in a bar of four beats well at the max four a's but then four a's is boring then you just have one rhythm so I need to have what's the what's the math here you can tell me in the comments if you know the NC formula you know when our maths class maybe type it in the comments that'll be fun basically you want a minimum of two a phrase and a b phrase so you don't want all a's and all b's so to speak right guys so that was a lesson on how to improvise using rhythm and using the binary properties of beats and how and the divisions of beats hope you found the lesson useful the notes are there for you waiting for you on patreon right thanks a ton for watching the lesson catch you in the next one cheers

It's raining a lot and there's a train. This isn't working. On today's vlog we go over concave haircutting. All right so I put concave layering in my last couple of vlogs. Now here's the challenge. I've done it twice. I did one time vertical. I did the other time horizontal. I had questions both times about was it concave or was it not concave. So I want to break down my thoughts on concave layering so that hopefully you guys will understand why I call it concave and why it is concave when I'm cutting the way that I'm cutting. So here's the breakdown. All right so what I did on the last video was I was cutting the hair vertically in the back. What I was doing is elevating that hair up to a flat line here pretty much flat with the top of the head. Why you guys didn't think that that was concave is because I wasn't hiking up my elbow and creating this short to long feel here which is what you guys are used to seeing when somebody says they're cutting concave. They elevate their elbow that's what they call concave and that's the only thing that we think about when we think about concave. But you have to look at the head shape. We've talked about the head shape many many times so the head shape is so important on what your angle is and what you're creating in the haircut. The other thing I did was a couple weeks ago I did a haircut where I held everything above the head same elevation but I did it horizontally and I called it concave as well. So I'm going to go through both of those scenarios and help you understand again why I call those concave. So I want to break it down on this bald mannequin first then I'll show you with a drawing and hopefully I can help you guys understand why I call it concave. All right so let's look at the angle breakdown of what I'm doing on the head. So if I were to hold this up right here and cut the hair this is concave. If I were to shift and hold this part of the head up and cut it it would not be concave it would be straight layers but because I'm shifting here and I'm pulling the hair from the back of the head that changes the entire angle of how I'm holding the hair. Let's look at it this way. This straight out 90 degrees right then we shift it up. Now what I'm doing is I'm taking hair this bit is at 90 straight out this bit is higher than 90 and this bit is at almost 180 so that line is being created. So really if you just tilt the head forward a little bit you would see that how I'm holding that hair is actually at that same curved shape that you're thinking when we take the hair and do it like this. The reason I did not do that and shift my fingers that much because the more you shift your fingers the shorter the layers are going to get towards the head and I didn't want that short of layers. So there's a lot of different ways to hold the hair when you're cutting concave it's not as easy as just shifting your fingers up and calling it concave. So concave is a short to long arched feel of the hair and if you're working with the head shape back here and I lift my fingers here all of this hair is coming at different angles so you're going to see that it has that concave feel to it if you look at it from a head shape standpoint. Now I want to do the same thing on a drawing because some of you guys visually can't see it on the head so I want to break it down also with my magnetic sketch head right here. So we have the head shape I'm going to draw this out real quick and then break it down for you. Okay so this is what I did so I cut the hair I elevated the hair here cut it horizontal with the top of the head and what that's going to do when you release the hair is push this bottom part is going to fall longer right this is going to cut be cut short so if you see it creates that arch shape. Now if I were to do the same thing and hold the hair horizontally so this is the vertical version if I were to do it horizontally it's going to be even more extreme version of this because so the horizontal version becomes a flat line and I'm bringing everything up to one point cutting it just like that so what I'm doing is I'm holding that hair flat in my fingers and then when you let it go this longer point gets even longer and falls so it creates that arch shape so we're creating concave no matter what what you guys are used to with what people call concave would be holding the hair here and creating that scoop motion with your fingers from the rest of the hair this is also concave I'm not saying that this isn't concave this is a more extreme version so when you let that go this is going to be even longer so you let that go it's coming all the way out here now you've got a longer version you've got shorter layers and a longer bottom that's not always what you want that's not necessarily the shape that we're trying to create or the type of density that we're trying to create within a haircut I wanted to remove weight but I wanted to keep structure and I also didn't want really really short layers so there's all different types of concave I hope that I hope that this helps you guys understand that it's not always about how you're holding your finger angle it's all about the head shape where the head shape is at when you're holding the hair and what that is creating that is the real result of what we're trying to do so hopefully this will help you guys when you're cutting hair and removing weight and all those things you don't have to go like this to create concave you can do it based on the head shape and where you're at in the haircut so take the haircut piece by piece that's what I ask of you guys every time is take little pieces of what I do and incorporate it into your haircutting and hopefully that will help you out so thank you guys so much for watching hope I cleared it up hope you've joined the community you can ask these questions on there fsesocial.com thank you guys for watching I'll see you on the next vlog thanks


What is going on guys welcome back to the channel critical overlord here So we're gonna be talking about AEW and this whole CM Punk mess that spiraling out of control not out of control But you know, it's pretty disappointing that CM Punk returned to the pro wrestling industry last year in his hometown of Chicago and a year later It's turned into this one of the most disappointing returns in recent memories. No doubt about it This is a new report from the wrestling observer newsletter according to Dave Meltzer AEW and CM Punk were in talks to buy out the remaining years on his contract The news comes less than two months after punk a steel who was recently released the young Bucks and Kenny omega Were involved in a backstage fight following punk's comments about the Bucks Omega and others at September's all-out post-event press conference Meltzer said neither punk or AEW commented on or denied the story Meltzer wrote that AEW and punk were talks about the future But it looks doubtful he will be back Those with close knowledge of the situation said they're in talks with punk about a buyout of the remaining years of his contract Which tells you that they are not looking to bring him back The holdup right now is said to be the non-complete period He wrote that the non-compete is obviously because of WWE as they are the only other group that can pay him What he would ask for punk is currently injured from his all-out match with John Moxley However, with no public time before when he could return the length of the disputed non-compete was not included Meltzer pointed out there is no locked WWE would even want punk back Even with Paula Vecke on a streak of surprise returns Noting they turned down having punk return before despite Fox wanted him to do so AEW has yet to publicly state anything related to the fight with Tony calm refusing to answer questions when asked It's assumed that Omega and the Bucks were suspended following the fight while punk is injured and can't return to action Anyway, it's unclear if he is still suspended despite that punk Omega and the Bucks were all stricter the titles on the post all-out edition of Dynamite Without being mentioned by name or why the titles were stripped from them to begin with now I just want to dive in and share my thoughts on the whole situation So again, it is very disappointing that this is what it's come to regarding the whole seeing punk return to pro wrestling Many of us had dream matches that we wanted to see like seeing punk versus Jeff Hardy Again, not that that's a match you haven't seen before That's why I have to say again some other matches that he hasn't had Already we know he did that great program with MJF. I think they had a great Rivalry in the company some great promo action between the two as well Something that we all knew they were going to do because they're two of the best on the mics but when it comes to Again what I think AEW should be doing before I even talk about a potential WWE run If we were going to ignore the fact that there's also reports out there that the The energy in the backstage locker room or in the locker room is that in general their anti-seeing punk They're on the side of the elite the young bucks Kenny omega hangman adam page. You're on this. They're on that side They're anti-seeing punk Despite reports like that. Let's ignore that regardless if it's true or not What I would hope is that AEW would let this die down with him already being out of action Let it die down try to turn this into something that would boost your ratings upon his returns Such as a very dominant heel run not necessarily something that have what have to portray him in the greatest light anyway, but Capitalized on this and turned it into a storyline But again, if your locker room is unhappy Maybe that's what's what's most important to Tony con is keeping his locker room happy right now Because I was thinking to myself during that scrimmage the fact that he was so comfortable to talk like this with you around I think that shines a light on just how much you need to improve maybe as a boss So that way they don't get that comfortable around you because you at the end of day are still their boss They need to act a certain way around you Uh, of course, obviously you guys can be cool But to go out and talk like that And stretch it to the people that are in the back That was a little bit overkill and I get the whole frustration he had with them talking about uh called cabana That was that part I was okay with But then when he started extending it, of course the adam page I again was on his side in terms of I get that you have to let your frustration out But now as as time passes you also have to recognize there's a time and a place to do certain things And that was not the right time or the place Because now he's in this situation. He has one of the shortest live aw rains after what holding the title two times now And still one of the shortest live rains It's very disheartening that his return ended up like this But in regards to him potentially returning to wwe I could see that happening I think that of course even though he had beef with not only Vince McMahon and paul levet because there's a difference here between certain other returning stars This guy had an issue with vince and triple h What is different to me now though is that I think the chances of it happening are more stronger with triple h Being in charge someone who is open to putting personal decisions Or personal issues aside and working together for the sake of what's best for the business I could also see fox starting to push for sea and punt to come back once again I could also see paul hayman getting triple h's ear because we know that that's a paul hayman That's a paul hayman guy. We know that paul hayman is a sea and punt guy We know that they already had a program together on screen once in 2013 as well. So There's so many different variables. I think that could lead to us having a stronger chance of seeing punk back in wwe I also know that if you were to do that, you'd have some people saying he's a hypocrite Ultimately is going to come down to what he thinks is best for him Some people think it's best for him to just walk away from the business all together because he has too big of an ego I'm someone who thinks that if you were to return to wwe There would be a lengthy conversation had with him about certain things that we have kind of seen addressed in promo between triple h and sea and punk on television Many years ago almost a decade ago at this point related to his ego and certain other things about how he's not happy Unless he's the one at the top They will probably have a lengthy conversation about that and tell him that's not how this is going to go We are going to put our differences aside and we are going to bring you in and see where this goes But it's not going to go like this. You have to you have to check that ego at the door And they will bring him in because i'm sure there's other people who would love to have sea and punk back in the locker room at wwe because honestly there there's people In that locker room that I could see sea and punk getting along with much better than the guys in the back at aw I just can't with all of those guys being on the side of the elite He has a hate train behind him But honestly again a part of me is thinking aw would be dropping the ball and losing out on a big opportunity Because of the fact that I think that could help their ratings wwe is still to this date from my memory still beating them in terms of ratings for their major shows anyway So then if you Have seen punk added to the mix someone who's again once once again very controversial and in the talk of garden professional wrestling And he shows up on raw or smackdown their ratings just going to jump up even higher They're just going to jump up even higher, but I think that if he were to stay in aw and you work this into a He'll run for him It would also boost your ratings which again still need boost So if they lose seeing punk that is a big loss it doesn't it doesn't matter the circumstances around it I would say seeing punk is still a very big draw Regardless of why he's leaving the company. That's going to be a big loss It's going to be a very big loss and then for him to only potentially return to wwe That would only enhance wwe's ratings. I would think so and I know again There is no guarantee he will return But I think the chances of him returning are stronger more than ever Let me know what you guys think about this down in the comment section below If you haven't already, of course, make sure you subscribe turn on post notifications video in the description I will have links to all my social media accounts. I am on facebook twitter and instagram You can message me there of course and let me know if there are any movies news or reviews You'd like me to cover in the future and with all that in mind guys.

Can't wait to spend seven thousand rupees I will buy food for anybody that comes street food.   It's my hundred dollars What Aren't there rules?  Here we go Here it is the monstrosity laying in at one kilogram Let's try it out.  I think people saw the title and they're like, how are you gonna pull this off? I'll be joined by a local foodie expert Natasha of curly tails and she knows her stuff. It's such a wide room city You find the richest man living in the city and you find the poorest of the poor living in the city And you barely see the disparity.  We're eating big and Move my Looking great already I can tell already I eat the food guy One the dancing doubly in order to entice patrons and get some attention for his sandwiches this man dances or um Yeah, that's dancing, right? Hey Is he yelling at me? India is the best Right here and you have the amazing dancing Now it's a baby sound all over Mumbai, but there's no baby special they're putting like a incense underneath actually to keep away everything I'm so the effects We're in the Bollywood movie right now Oh, I can't put it. He's got the bread. He's dramatic Carefully slicing each one. It's not actually that careful. I love this guy. He cut himself at some point Don't think so now he's ready. We've got it He chutneyed garlic chutneys, tomato mix, onions, peanuts, and now he's just going to try his tasting Come on people I've just got like a little salsa of like peanut, onion, and garlic chutney Oh, yeah, mo flour shavings Mama granted ah the bun here is super toasty crunchy. Let's just jump into it dip it into this stuff Mmm Yeah, can you even get any hold on compare those bites That's hilarious. That's so yummy. The masala is not too intense, which is nice the peanut I'm just worried about everything It looks delicious Everything that fell out I think I hope for you You I'll tell you I'm up for the challenge. Let's do this. All right, let's go. No, you can't walk off camera. So you finish eating that Come to our second location right here. I think it's a big lentil block bearing my face It's just actually grand stuff. This is one of the most spot-selling dishes here.  You think you can do that? Yeah I can can we pretend like I'll take a bite and spit it out and like We'll edit it. So it looks like I ate it. Is that okay? That's what I do So right now he's put some of the fluff on the plate shave gram flour on top of that Coriander a big handful of onion a couple of chilies and then some little mirrors Give us a little mirror so you can check your teeth for food at the end. It's called jugaard Wait, I want you guard just meant like make it work. Yeah, that's exactly what it is. They're making it work We don't have spoons. We're not using plastic. All right, let's do it. So I'm going to curve it a little bit Interesting It looks like the inside of a burrito. Right, but it does Mmm And then the onion is a nice texture a little bit crunchy onion texture Very simple but very delicious and honestly, why would you mess it up by eating chilies? Mess it up. Come on. It's not like as intense as it would be. Come on Don't believe her. Ready? Yeah, take a bite. I'm gonna take a bite. You're not gonna? No, it's too spicy for me She walks me through this huge tutorial and she's like, but I'm there. Okay, here we go I'm not doing that. I am This is a little zing A little chili flavor. I love it India has some of the most affordable street food of anywhere in the world But there's a lot of reasons for it and one of them is the choice of ingredients and kind of the creativity with the ingredients Yeah, how one thing can be used for like Yeah, even here they're kind of the gram flour mash and then we have the shaved gram flour on top doing a texture That's a lot of booze for like 22 cents That's why it's so hard I'm doing it Onion potato mixture that's tough in corn flour. Oh, so this has been stuffed already Yes with onion potato and a little bit of spices all of it mixed together and it's deep fried Kind of rips it apart and then he puts on this Chutney, the shaved gram flour, onions, or chili And what's in there?  Oh, that's your favorite. You've got onions, coriander, all it on top That's good. It's more like a pizza there. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, because you're using that mint chutney I don't like the look man. That is a heavy food. Yeah, it's really heavy It's a bit spicy, got a little bit of crunch on the outside, but otherwise it's just a little like a I think same roti pudding on the inside. Well, you better be hungry because you're going to have to eat a lot that day You just add a bit more of the red chutney and if you want it spicy, you just add the green chutney Well, for what do I don't want anything? Or that Chutney in solid form. Uh-huh, go for it. Ready? And here I go Mmm. Oh, the joint is magic It's soaked up a lot of that oil. It is so heavy. It's really heavy But I love it Just a few foods in and still not anywhere to make this happen Oh, I could have eaten 50 of those They take a crisp, such as this, they hollow out the top They gently hollow out the top and then they put it in some like bean and green water and things like that and you get Absolutely. Now with the ragra puri, what they do is they take the same thing They fill it up with the ragra, which is made of family of choli, it's like a family of chickpeas They put that and then you add a little bit of moong, which is like a length He starts with the crisp putting a hole into it and then so he's got this little mixture in this So that's the moong, the potato, a little bit of spices What are you going to do with it? They're making it with their bare hands and their hands It does bother me.

Oh my It's a big monstrosity I did not expect to see this in Mumbai or in India This was worth it man But the city of sandwiches Which is what this is called Mumbai is called the city of sandwiches But they do like sandwiches And the city of sandwiches This sandwich is the mayor Is that right? Do you guys have a mayoral system? I like it It has been an amazing Real day of eating When you added all of the food cuts This much money Did we get to $100? I think we missed it So what did we learn today? It is impossible to eat $100 worth of food Why? In India in one day Maybe in one year Maybe in five years Indian street food is the perfect intersection Of affordability and yumminess Elevating simple ingredients to their highest potential With dynamic flavors and joyous textures Natasha from Curly Tales Again, thank you so much for your company And all your knowledge about street food In Mumbai This video was made possible by OneTrip Vietnam OneTrip is the highest Good sponsors So a couple things That was good I'm going to do it The challenge We're coming to India We're going to Mumbai among other cities I will let anybody who wants to come Help me Until I complete The $100 street food challenge It will be a video and you will see it And he will I will spend it I will buy If you want free food just come along I believe that part of the rules is the $100 It's got to be you spend $100 on yourself That's the challenge It's not a challenge for you to bring 50 people And buy them $100 worth of food It's not a challenge I make my own rules Hey If I want to buy hundreds of people Food which I'm going to have to Go right ahead I'm going to have to But I don't think that qualifies For this challenge It's not a challenge It looked delicious And I love did you hear her say Oregano That happened I was cooking something And she said is that oregano And I thought that is so cute And she said what? That's what we call it here I said it's oregano She said no everybody here calls it oregano Are we sure? At least I'm sure of this Well I know we call it oregano And I come from an Italian family And oregano is a pretty central staple But I don't know where it's from It's from the earth It grows on the ground The pronunciation of oregano I believe it's Italian Could be wrong I don't know who you know The battle between Italy and India There for that one Those epic India India and Italy battles Man that was good Like the sandwich at the end Ridiculous Everything about that Did you see there was a recent Food person Either on food network or a food critic Who simply just came out And lamb based Indian food across the board Said Indian food isn't any good And bunches of people Jumped up and said are you a moron Because yes clearly you are a moron He probably went down To the local Taj Mahal restaurant In Des Moines And ate what they were serving Because the little exposure That we've had Is eaten here I just got a message recently from somebody Says why don't we eat south Indian food The reason we don't eat south Indian food Guys is because the restaurants here Are predominantly north Indian stuff Because everybody thinks it's like tandoori Chicken and chicken masala And that's pretty much it But we're looking And I can tell you Just from one bite Of mutton that I had in Calcutta Was it nice and lean Potato If you don't know what we're quoting Stop living under an MLT sandwich Have fun storming the castle Princess bride go watch it You should We'll do the rest of it like this I want to go to Mumbai And I want to eat the food But yeah everything in there Like everything looked delicious That's never my issue really It's I'm hoping it's not too spicy Well that's the difference is that When they talk about spicy in India When we talk spicy We're thinking what we're exposed to here With Thai food and Mexican food Which means heat Spicy for Indian food Means it's got a tremendous amount of flavor That like overwhelms your mouth Because it's so so flavorful Heat isn't necessarily the factor Now they do have some stuff that is hot But it's not Customarily my understanding With food being spicy It's just got a lot of spice flavor I don't think you're going to get hit with heat The way you would But see guys There are certain brands of Doritos He can't eat I'm not kidding I can't eat hot cheetos That's one of them But you wouldn't eat the spicy nacho Doritos I wouldn't eat anything with the word spicy Correct You don't get pepperoni on your pizza Okay I can eat You can but it burns your mouth It's not like Oh it's hot But I feel heat when I eat pepperoni Yes, if you ate a pepperoni You would go and grab a drink Yes But I eat pepperoni It's just I Most people can't tell that there's heat in pepperoni I can't Pepper is sometimes spicy It's going to be The two things There's three things I'm going to enjoy about you in India One is You having to navigate the numbers of people surrounding you Two The amount of times you are going to have to eat With your hands and have food prepared By other people's hands I already bought my Reusable fork I'm just going to have on my key chain And I will stare at every Indian In the face as I eat their food with my fork And then the heat I'm still waiting for the day We meet Alia Bhatt And we get to do something And we're eating and she's going to give you something To eat and you're going to refuse it I'm pretty sure she won't do that Because Alia Please, please, please She's not watching


Roger, that's a solid copy. Stand by for talk on it. We look at core skills. What's essential that the Rifle Squad has to be able to accomplish to win against any enemy we may fight in any climate, in any place? The Rifle Company selects their best squad, competes inside the Italian, and then it moves up the regiment. The same thing happens, right? And then eventually they work their way to 1st Marine Division. As Marines were checking in, I could look at a squad and say, I'm pretty sure those guys will win. And these guys will probably come in second. And it comes down to being able to master individual skills, team and squad battle skills. And those are the things that make squads successful in combat.
