LEGO has just done the IMPOSSIBLE. - Duration: 1:24.

Wow.

WOW.

They did the impossible.

LEGO actually did it.

The madmen.

They...

they made Bricktober...

great again.

[clapping]

This is incredible.

It's a minifigure pack of four EXCLUSIVE LEGO Batman suits.

With new prints all over their legs and torso,

new colors for some pieces,

heck the bunny batsuit has a new face print.

I mean, each of these look great.

Okay, well,

wizard Batman I think is the weakest

but even his torso and legs looks funny.

I loveeeee the money suit one,

that's hilarious,

as is the bunny suit,

which was teased for a while now.

I'm amazed they're just throwing it in this throw away set.

Even the Bat...

spartan looks dope as heck.

With the new colors for the helmet and the shield.

Wow.

One thing I have to say

is that the LEGO Batman Movie

has become one of the themes with the most unique minifigures

in its one year.

I mean, there's the seventeen sets from this year,

a bunch of promo accessories and polybags,

a friggin' CMF line.

And then next year,

there's even more sets,

another CMF line of 20 unique minifigures WOW.

Either way,

keep in mind this is one of four packs.

CM4Sci claims on Reddit that one of them is from the Ninjago Movie,

so I can't wait to see it.

What do you guys think?

Leavee your thoughts in the comments below,

and a thanks to Promo Bricks for discovering this.

I'll see you guys later.

Peace out.

Bye.

3D TEXT EFFECT In Adobe Photoshop - Duration: 9:15.

hey guys Fx Razib here from graphics guru in this tutorial we are

gonna learn how to create nice 3d text effect in Photoshop so let's get started

first of all start the Photoshop and go to file new and okay now this is my

canvas and for this I have to create a text so I'm selecting the type tools

and writing any text you can use your own text here I can choose this text and

the distance will be 0 and the size will be 290 It's a huge size okay now I'll

change the color for this one I'm choosing this one go to this and go to here and there is a color and this

is the code color for this color I'll provide it in the in the description

double click on this layer and this layer style will be appeared then go

to Stoke and give a nice to like

this much this will be okay and okay now right click on this and create layer and

you will find out there's a black layer over there so first select this layer

and press ctrl on the keyboard and just click on this T okay so the inside text

is selected and then by selecting this layer you have to just PRESS DELETE for deselecting

Ctrl+D and now you can see if I invisible this layer you will found this

only the outline okay and now I have to create another text like you can do it

or your wish but I want to add another text first select the type tool

and click and select everything then press Ctrl + T on the keyboard and select

and color should be black for me and size will be like

extremely low

50 okay I Selected 50 and now okay the color will be same and spacing will be 780

It's a nice Spacing

capitalize or like this one okay so I got three layers so what we'll do we'll

first created one by one a 3d layer right-click and new 3d extended from

selected layer something some notice will be appear on your desktop just press

yes the interface will be change okay there is 3d selected select layer and

then go right click on this first drug this one the outline and right click and

create new extension from selected layer and then also go to layer

okay I'm just shorting these attributes press Ctrl on your keyboard and

Select both of those and Ctrl + E for

combining these two go to 3d you will find out two separate layers here it is

one and another is here so you can what we can do is we can go to effects

and just move inside you can move it or backward by clicking just like

this okay now I just put it some where I can see

and then go to layer again and right click on this RAZIB layer and also create

extension

I'll put it in the same way but now what I can do is just select both of this

and Ctrl+E to combined those and also there's another

thing what I should do is right-click on the background and create it postcard

and then select both of this Ctrl+E and something like this one will be Appear

on your screen don't do anything just go to 3D and go to render and it will take

some time so it is done so now what I do is right click on this layer and convert

to smart object OK so we found the effect and the desired look

so you can add some filter for this we can go to the Camera Raw filter and make

some adjustment like colors and like oh and also not too much but

it may be like this way some contrast and some highlights

okay some shadows you can do it by yourself and tastes you like

and some clarity and some vibrance could be like this one and highlight could be like this

it's your choice actually you can create your own 3D Text but the basic was

this and they can add some sharpening and luminance then I can go to change the

orange reddish and some minor adjustments such as aquas and blues and

also go to the split toning and give nice filter effect like

this way and go to the effects and

so this way we can create nice text effect in 3D hope the tutorial helps you

Don't forget to LIKE SHARE and SUBSCRIBE thank you guys Peace*

John Gray - Religião, política e o barbarismo da razão - Duration: 6:28.

I think the reason many western political doctrines

have an eschatological character

is that they inherited it from religion. In particular from

western monotheism and from Christianity, most of all.

And I think there is a confusion

in the minds of people who think about religion.

They think that if they reject religious beliefs,

then they've rejected religion.

But religion is more than a set of beliefs, its a whole

way of thinking, it's a set of categories and concepts,

which can survive, and have survived,

even when the beliefs have been rejected.

So, many of the supposedly secular doctrines of the West,

including Marxism and most forms of Liberalism

are really monotheistic categories and concepts

applied without the background of religious beliefs.

Now, as you may be aware,

people who have read my writings may know that

I, myself, am an atheist.

But I strongly criticize many forms of contemporary atheism.

Because they seem to me to take the worst features of religion,

of the west religion, and leave some of the…

abandon some of the better features of religion.

And by the worst features I mean the strongly missionary evangelical,

and at times intolerant format that, certainly,

we transmitted to communism.

And, also, with the general claim that western religions have made

to identify the best form of life,

or even the only good form of life for all human beings.

That is a kind, I think, of an intolerant claim.

And that claim is really been central

to many forms of Marxism and Liberalism.

What they have abandoned from religion, which

I think it's good, it's the idea they've abandoned that

there is a kind of oddly enough in religion has coexisted

for a very, very long time, with doubt.

So religious faith is very familiar with doubt.

I know that there are many kinds of fundamentalism

in Christianity and in Islam and in other religions.

But if you look at the whole history of western religious thinking in

Augustin and in the great Jewish thinkers, Maimonides, and others,

you'll find that faith and doubt coexist.

And there's also, in religion, an awareness of

the inherent flaws, the inherent difficulties,

the inherent weaknesses of humanity.

And that kind of limits,

has limited to some extent, in the past,

the eschatological and messianic tendencies of religion.

They've always been there, they've always been dangerous, in my view,

they've always been harmful, they've led to religious wars, and

forms of tyranny and persecution. But there have been these

other elements in religion,

which have kept these tendencies in check.

Whereas, if you abandon an idea of a transcendental order,

if you abandon the idea that human beings are

flawed, inwardly flawed, which is now almost a forbidden idea.

It's an idea which is so

offensive to modern taste,

to contemporary sensibility. If you say that

humans are highly flawed animals, which I think it's true,

that's considered to be almost a kind of blasphemy

against the human species. But it's true.

Before that Christian idea, we find in the Old Testament,

in the Hebrew Testament, the Jewish Testament,

the idea of, the myth of Genesis, which says

that human knowledge is ambiguous.

Human knowledge is not necessarily liberating,

or good, it depends on how human beings use it.

These are very profound ideas, and those ideas were true ideas,

because although myths can't be true

in the way that scientific theories can be true,

myths can have truthfulness, or truthiness,

you might even say. If they're abandoned,

but the apocalyptic and eschatological aspects of religion are continued,

in other words, if the categories and ways of thinking of religion carry on,

but the beliefs have been rejected,

along with these ideas, these deep myths,

if these myths have been abandoned,

then the result is what

the great early 19th century Italian poet Leopardi

called "the barbarism of reason".

Leopardi was an atheist, and I'm an atheist.

He rejected Christianity. Caused a lot of pain to his poor father,

who wanted him to grow up a good catholic, he rejected Christianity.

He admired ancient polytheism in the ancient world,

but he knew he couldn't become polytheist, it's ridiculous.

So he actually supported Catholicism, in his own day,

because he thought Catholicism, although he didn't share it,

the Roman Catholicism was better

than what he called "the barbarism of reason".

And the barbarism of reason is the idea that

the whole world, the whole of humanity

can really only live well in a single way.

And he thought that idea would lead to enormous wars,

enormous dictatorships,

he already wrote about the Jacobins in France.

He said this kind of what he called the half philosophy,

the barbarism of reason, a kind of new secular religion,

would be even more intolerant, even more oppressive

than Christianity have been at its worst.

And I think he was right, it's what I also think myself.

I lost my glasses - On the road

Good Morning

We are in Kochin...

... in one of the island of Kochin...

... that is it. At morning you can find crows...

... it has also...

What is the name of this pray that I always forget?

Is it the pray to Alah?

And it is a multi-culture city as we could see for now...

Let's count the religions!

Muslin...

Catholic

Jewish

Hinduism

We saw a few churches that looks belongs to Pentecostalism

Sikh

And that is all... Let's go to where the sound leads!

To see if is possible to see something

See ya

Bye!

Another thing that you will find here in India...

... Che Guevara! Look!

A lot! It is not the first that we see.

Kochin is a city in India and, as Goa, was also the place of the Portuguese occupation...

... being considered since always, an important port for all India ...

... and great relation with Vasco da Gama's history - that was buried in the City until 1880.

Today, Cochin is a major city in India that does not have Hinduism as its main religion...

... being home to several religions and ideologies, maintaining an inheritance that mixes tradition and modernity in one place.

In addition, we came to Kochin to see the Kalaripayattu and the art of Kathakali dance...

... where we even held a class.

But that, we you tell you better next week.

The Triad we never talk about - but we play it all the time! - Duration: 11:02.

- Hi everybody, my name is Jens Larsen.

When we play jazz guitar,

we're using triads

all the time,

both in accompanying and in soloing.

And usually, the categories we work with will be

major, minor, diminished, augmented, and sus four triads.

But actually, there's one more

category of triads that ...

we don't really have a name for it,

but we use it all the time,

and it might actually make sense

to just think of it like that,

because then we have a structure

that we can add, both to ...

our accompanying and to our solos.

And that's what I'm gonna talk about in this video.

If you want to know more about jazz guitar,

about improvising over chord changes

and finding interesting arpeggios and scales,

then subscribe to my channel.

If you want to make sure not to miss anything,

then click the little bell notification icon

next to the subscribe button.

Just to illustrate how often we actually use this triad,

I'm just gonna play two cadences,

so you can see

where you might come across it.

In the first of the two cadences that I just played,

I'm using the triad that I want to talk about

on the Cm6.

So, the voicing I'm playing is ... this.

And the way we could look at this

is also that it's an Eb.

So, an Eb major triad ...

in the second inversion with a b5.

And in the second cadence, I'm using it on the G7.

And that's this voicing ...

And the way to see that is probably

as a B triad with a b5 again.

So, since we don't really have a name for this,

I'm just gonna call it in this case

like a B major b5 triad.

And in Dutch, you have a name for them,

they're called "Hard verminderd,"

but as far as I know,

there's no known name for it

in well, Danish or English.

So, if you know of a name, actually,

in any language,

then leave a comment.

I'm just curious if there's really no place

where there's a name for this, besides Holland,

because it is a fairly common structure,

and you will see it.

And also, you probably play this all the time ...

And this as well.

So, we use it so much that it's kind of strange

that it doesn't have actually a category of its own.

First, I'm going to talk about how you can use

these structures in your accompanying as chord voicings,

and then I'm gonna start later in this video

to talk about how you can use them

as arpeggios in your solos.

So, the first thing to start with,

if you want to use them as chords,

is probably just to check them out in inversions.

So, I'm gonna do that for the two top set of strings,

with a C major b5 triad.

So, that's gonna be first on the G, B, and E string,

and then on the D, G, and B strings.

That would sound like this:

The thing that we now need to look at

is where could we actually use this triad as a voicing.

So, there are, of course, several ways to do that.

Essentially, you can just take the chord,

and then go through different root notes,

and see which ones you think sound good.

And then, sort of figure out what chords they are.

I'm not really gonna do that in the video.

Instead, I'm just gonna go over some of the places

where I use this triad really a lot.

One of the first ones would be the minor sixth version.

So, in this case that would be an Am6.

I'm also using it quite a lot as a D9 triad.

And it works really well as an Ab altered sound.

And you can also use it

as sort of a phrygian B7 sus4, with a b9,

type of sound ...

And on occasion, you can also get away with using it as a

... As an F#, half diminished.

So, in this example, I'm using the C major b5 triad,

as an Am6 voicing.

And I'm just playing a cadence before, so there's ...

... there's a Bm7b5.

So, it's basically a D minor triad,

which I'm using,

and then we get this

E7 with a b9.

And then resolving that to the Am.

An example of using it as a D9

would be something like this:

And we can, of course, also use it

as an Ab7alt voicing.

So, here I'm using

this second inversion, C b5 triad

as the top part

of an Ab7, with a flat thirteen,

and resolving that to this Rootless D flat major seven.

I think there's a good chance

that you're probably already know

some of the examples that I just went over,

using the major b5 triad.

And, I think the way you want to think about this

is also then that if you start working

with the inversions of the major b5,

you might come across things that you don't already know,

and you might be able to quite easily

add something to your vocabulary, in terms of accompanying.

The same, of course, goes for soloing.

So, if we want to use

the major b5 triad for soloing,

we need to figure out how to first

just play the arpeggio.

I think there's all of two ways

that I would suggest

you try and play it in opposition,

if you want to play it from C here.

So, the first one would be this one:

because here I'm using that.

It's really just three notes,

and we could just move it up in octaves.

And the other one would be to play it more in opposition.

That could be something like this:

And of course, you should just use your own fingerings

as a starting point, to figure out

some major b5 arpeggios,

because that way you're probably gonna be closer

to ending up with something that you're already playing;

you don't have to check out

the ones that I'm using exactly.

In this example, I'm using the C major b5 triad,

as a part of a C7 altered line.

I'm using it in a melodic minor context, because of course,

C7 altered is the same as

Db melodic minor.

So, we have this scale:

And there are three places where you have

a major b5 triad in a melodic minor,

because you have one on C,

and you have one on E,

And one on Gb.

But, in this example, I'm just using the one on C,

just to keep it a bit simple.

The first part of the line is just in the G minor,

so that's just a Bb major triad,

and a scale run.

Then I play the C major b5 triad,

kind of echoing the idea on the Bb,

Skipping up to the root,

and then a small scale run.

Here, I'm using the major b5 triad,

as it is found in a diminished scale,

because, of course, if we have the diminished scale

that we associate with C7,

then that would be this scale:

And actually, we have that, we have the C

major b5 triad.

And that means that we actually have all four of them.

So, we'll have one for A,

Eb,

And G flat.

So, you can use those,

and that's what I'm doing here in the line.

The first part of the line is again,

on the G minor, just starting with a Bb major triad, so

in this pattern,

skipping up to the G

in our scale run.

And then on the C7,

I start with the b5,

and play the descending

major b5 triad.

Then, I just play that same

idea, but then from A.

So, I start on the Eb, so Eb,

C sharp,

And then A.

And then I use the C and the Bb

to resolve to the third of F,

which is an A.

In this final example,

I'm using the C major b5 triad

on an A minor six.

Because when we can use it as a voicing,

we can, of course, also use it

as an arpeggio when we're soloing.

So, the cadence is really fairly basic,

so it's B half diminished,

E7 to Am6.

And I start with

an Fmaj7 arpeggio

on the B half diminished,

And then down a sort of a scale run

from A minor pentatonic.

And on the E7,

I go to the five.

And then from the D up to the F,

skipping down to get a G#,

and then back up to F,

down to D,

and then I'm resolving to the C on the

... on the A minor six.

And from here,

I'm playing the major b5 triad,

and then resolving that to the nine,

on the A minor six.

With A minor sixths, the scale you use is probably gonna be

A melodic minor.

And the same is with the C7, also.

We actually have three different

major b5 triads

that we can use in a melodic minor scale.

So, in the case of A melodic minor,

we have the one that we use, which is on the C.

But there's another one on D.

And then there's also one on G#.

Since, you're probably familiar

with how this sounds as a chord versing,

you're probably gonna have an easy time

trying to add it into your playing,

and you can check out some inversions,

to maybe get a few more options,

and that can be very useful,

and also quite easy to implement.

And I think you should try and do the same

with the arpeggios,

because it is, again, a distinct sound,

but you can really use it in a lot of different places,

and any triad, really.

And it's always nice to have these kind of strong melodies

that triads really are.

If you think about where you find them,

so I already talked about the fact that you have them

three places in the melodic minor,

and four places in the diminished scale.

But you might also want to check out,

there's only one place in the major scale,

any scale that you use,

start to look into

where can I actually find this sound?

And where can I try and use it?

And it might be in some surprising places also,

because one of the ones in melodic minor,

on the seventh degree,

is kind of obvious for us, of course,

but in a lot of other contexts might be really useful

for some new colors.

about superimposing pentatonic scales,

and interesting arpeggios, and other scale choices,

then subscribe to my channel.

I publish a new lesson every week,

and I've been doing it for quite some time.

So, there's already really a lot of material on my channel.

One of the things that makes it possible

for me to continue

making all of these videos

is that I have a small community

of people on Patreon

that support me.

And if you want to help me

keep making all the videos,

And of course, if you support me on Patreon,

I can give you something in return for your support.

That's about it for this week.

Thank you for watching, and until next week...

Accessibility at VidCon (U.S.) 2017 [CC] - Duration: 8:56.

Hello, hello!

Today I want to talk about accessibility at VidCon 2017.

First, I'm afraid I must reiterate a point I made last year about the importance of

visible signage.

Last year I and many others had tremendous difficulty finding the accessible entrance

to register and this year I was told it was just as difficult.

It's rather hidden if you don't know what you are looking for and staff was not helpful

in pointing it out, in fact, they've directed wheelchair users to a staircase... (chortles)

...Unsure of where the accessible entrance was and point it out as the only entrance possible.

I don't know why they... would do that. (sigh)

So come on, VidCon!

Make some signs, inform staff members and security.

It's an easy fix.

Compared to last year, there were properly labeled foods, but there were also places

where they weren't or could be easily confusing if the cards were switched around.

Um...

And this is vital, if someone has an allergy this kind of error could cause a reaction or worse

a fatality.

Aside from proper labeling there should be more accommodating options for food for different

dietary restrictions, that means vegan options, lactose-free, gluten-free.

Um...

And while I know many people think those kinds of requests are some fad and unnecessary but (coughs)

... for some people those are actual allergies and they need to be taken seriously.

This year VidCon had up to, I believe, 15 ASL interpreters on call and that is really amazing!

I also heard that they released an email to guests, um, so that they could request an interpreter.

That kind of communication with disabled guests is so necessary and I hope it won't stop

there, I really hope that at a disability registration at the event the staff is well

informed and has conversations with the disabled guests about their concerns with accessibility

because that it the way that they're gonna improve.

I didn't see it for myself but was told that this year there was actually a disability/accessibility

table at registration and I'm really glad that's a thing that's happening!

So VidCon puts on these movies screenings, um, it's an online video convention, so now

that I think about it, they play a few things on on the big screens throughout the day.

A friend of mine who is Deaf decided to attend the event but there were no captions and when

they asked about if captions being turned on, they were told by staff to find an interpreter

to interpret the film.

Uh.. no.

That's not how that works for SO many reasons.

Videos and films at the convention NEED captions so that all guests find whatever is on that big screen accessible.

This was also a matter of disability etiquette which brings me to my next point, disabled

priority seating.

Last year was my first year at VidCon and

I was pretty disappointed at the lack of accessible/disabled priority seating,

which left wheelchair users either in the far back or floating in the aisles, yikes,

but it was rectified this year with marked disabled priority seating and open spaces

at the ends of rows for wheelchair users!

Now for the not so great part, my friends, one with Spina Bifida and the other who has

EDS and is Hard of Hearing, they were sitting in the designated area when a security guard

came up to them and told them...

Andrea: ...and I'm sitting in the disabled seating section and a security guard came up to me

and said, "This is disabled seating."

I responded saying, "I know, I'm disabled."

and he looked at me and went, "No, you're not."

(record scratch) Annie: NO.

Whoah. No.

That is such an inappropriate thing to say… what does that even mean?

What does disability look like?

Anyway, I do understand where the guard was coming from, the intention was to reserve

a limited resource for the people that needed them, but in doing so, harassed the very people

he was trying to stand up for, so again, I must persist that the staff need a briefing

on things like this.

People with non-apparent disabilities are still disabled, my friends needed to be seated in

those seats to get a clear view of the ASL interpreter and CART, people who are

blind/visually impaired benefit from sitting up close, those with mobility disabilities

also need those seats in case people stand up and they still need to sit, they'd be

able to without missing anything, also with the space they have in the front rows,

they can easily get in and out for breaks if that's something that they need to do.

None of these disabilities are ones you'd be able to tell just by visual evidence, and...

I don't know what kind of difference you are expecting when you say, "You don't look

disabled."

A possible solution might be a card, badge, or even a ribbon that attaches to our VidCon

badges, um, that alert security and staff of accessibility needs.

Let me know what you think!

There needs to be more awareness and education regarding visible and non visible disabilities

and what their access needs are.

There needs to be proper training for staff and security so these kind of things don't

happen in the future.

Another thing that I'm not sure...

cuz I was backstage a lot...

um... happened throughout the event is the availability of quiet spaces or quiet rooms.

Um, personally, as a person who has um, some sensory processing issues and anxiety issues,

I...

could not spend a lot of time um, in the front of house, right, in the main areas

because it was far too overwhelming, too much stimuli.

In order to be there, I had to kind of find my own hiding spots backstage where I could have some quiet.

Quiet spaces are so needed for people with sensory processing issues, for people with anxiety,

um, and just...

Plain old anyone who just might need a moment to...

Exhale. To breathe.

Um... so...

I'm not sure if there were designated quiet spaces at the event...

but if they weren't I hope they'll be included next time!

While I am positive there are accessibility issues that I may have missed in this video,

I hope that anyone with concerns alerts VidCon via their survey

or makes contact with them some other way

and then VidCon can make the appropriate changes for a more accessible and inclusive event/convention

where all guests feel equal and valid in the space and not like their disability will cause

them to be excluded throughout the event…

and I will see you eventually, bye!
