![]() Keep your pinky finger on the 3rd fret of the B string, then your other fingers will naturally slot into the C and G chord shapes. It isn’t too complex, and the more you run it, the speedier and ‘twangier’ your playing will become. It works around D, C, and G open chord shapes, so if you’ve practised these chords, you’ll quickly pick it up. “Sweet Home Alabama” by Lynyrd SkynyrdĪ fun, iconic riff that instantly takes you to the American south. There are Am7 and Dm7 in the bridge which only require some slight adjustments from the normal open chords.ģ. Later, there are some variations of the basic chords, but don’t worry! These are super easy to play. You can either strum repeatedly at a slow pace to match the mood of the song or, if you’re feeling advanced, fingerpick the individual strings for more melodic quality. Listen to the song closely to pick up the rhythm and you’ll soon be bopping along to one of the most iconic songs of the ’70s.Ī soulful hit by Scottish bard Lewis Capaldi, this is a great song to strum and sing, with it consisting of C, G, Am, and F chords. Starting with two strums of an E power chord on the 7th fret, you’ll instantly feel like a rock god! That strong chord is followed by a cool little hammer-on riff in the same position and E, A, and D power chords in a steadily down-picked fashion. Raise your rock hands because “Paranoid” is perhaps one of the most legendary metal songs in existence. Want to get creative? You can move chords further up the neck with a handy capo, like the Fender Dragon, for interesting key changes! The dots on the top indicate which strings need to be played and which you should leave muted. These diagrams represent the neck of a guitar, with the dots on the grid showing you which fingers (1 is index, 2 is your middle, 3 is your ring, and 4 is your pinky) to place on which frets. Some good ones to start with are C, D, E, and G in the open position. In terms of difficulty, open chords are generally easier as you don’t have to hold down multiple strings with one finger or stretch your fingers too much. Barre chords don’t have any open strings in them, so they can be moved around the guitar neck to change the pitch of the chord.Open chords are played near the nut (headstock of the guitar), with some strings left to ring openly – without you pressing down any frets. ![]() You’ll see two types of chords referred to in guitar speak: open chords and barre (pronounced ‘bar’) chords. Put simply, a chord is a group of notes played together at the same time. What should a beginner guitarist learn?.What is the easiest song to play on the guitar?.“Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door” by Bob Dylan/Guns N’ Roses Still, the Ramones are considered one of the best groups ever to hit the stage and defined “punk” music. And it has become a staple on the video scene having been placed in such films as: Detroit Rock City, Shattered Glass, Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius, Rock ‘n’ Roll High School and National Lampoon’s Vacation.Īrguably, the Ramones are considered by many to be the first punk band, although a stronger case can be made for Iggy Pop and the Psychedelic Stooges, who predate the term “punk music” and the Ramones by about 10 years. The song’s chant “Hey! Ho! Let’s Go!” jettisoned the Ramones to international prominence and gave the lexicon of rock ‘n’ roll had another new anthem. Rolling Stone magazine ranked the track #18 on its 2008 list of the top 100 of Best Guitar Songs of All Time and #92 on the magazine’s list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Based on the A-D-E chords, the cut jumps into B, the song relies on power chords to push the romp forward in a furious frenzy. ![]() Out of the blocks, punk rock band, The Ramones, released their 1976 hit single “Blitzkrieg Bop,” a great 3-chord based song that’s fun and easy to play. ![]()

![]() To learn more about this new recovery system, visit bit.ly/HeliumRecovery. Although they have spent close to a million dollars to get this system operational, because of rising helium costs the team predicts that within four to five years the system will save enough money to recover the initial investment. Tapas Mal, Penn State NMR Facility director, had worked with various Penn State members since 2019 to acquire funding to purchase equipment and build the system to support their nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging facilities. Just two months into 2022, helium markets were already experiencing "Helium Shortage 4.0," and the Department of Chemistry had set up their own helium recovery system in the Chemistry Building. Since 2009, the Department of Physics has greatly increased capacity in Osmond Lab and added two more helium recapture systems in Davey Lab. Just two years after their visit, the first unit was purchased and assembled in Osmond Lab. Chan and Facilities Manager Robert “Bob” Holden visited Cornell University to better understand what building and maintaining such a system would entail. In 2006, the helium market experienced its first shortage, dubbed "Helium Shortage 1.0." In an effort to ensure the product supply would be secure, Moses Chan, professor emeritus of physics and Evan Pugh University Professor, set out to create Eberly’s first helium recapture system. In an effort to secure supplies, cut back on costs, and improve the sustainability of its research enterprise, the Eberly College of Science has invested in helium recapture systems that effectively allow scientists to reuse helium that would have previously been lost. For these reasons, the world has faced a helium shortage for nearly two decades. However, helium is a non-renewable resource-it cannot be made in the lab-and its gaseous form can escape the atmosphere and be lost to space. In fact, the element can stay in liquid form at absolute zero, -459.67˚F, making it ideal for certain research processes, such as maintaining samples and instruments at low temperatures. While it did help pay off the cost of the reserve, the quick sell-off at below market prices discouraged private competition as well as conservation of this non-renewable resource.Helium gas, aside from keeping party balloons aloft, has a variety of important uses, in part for the ability of its liquid form to maintain very cold temperatures. Congress directed the government out of the helium business with the Helium Privatization Act of 1996. The reserve continued to build, but by the mid-90s, blimps weren’t a bit part of the military. The porous underground rock spanning portions of Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas holds gas like a sponge holds liquid, capped above by calcium anhydrite and on the sides by water. This one-of-kind system stores about more than a third of the world's helium in crude form in the Cliffside gas field. In the 1960s, the Federal Helium Reserve was created. In the 1950s, helium became important to the space program. In the 1920s, when blimps were a weapon of war, 90% of the helium extracted in the U.S. Much of the extraction in the United States and the world comes from underground gas fields between Amarillo, Texas, and Hugoton, Kansas, where a very high concentration, up to 2%, can be found. But whether this has led to the shortage remains unclear. ![]() ![]() Nearly all of our helium is extracted from natural gas, a byproduct of radioactive decay of uranium and thorium. Helium demand has been rising consistently since 2009, and the market has increased at CAGR 10.1 per cent since 2010. But helium has far more critical uses than birthday balloons. That makes it a very good lifting gas in applications like balloons and blimps. At the time, helium demands dropped as much as 15 percent. The helium atom is smaller than any other element, and only hydrogen is lighter. Helium shortage 3.0, beginning in 2019, began its recovery when the pandemic slowed helium demand, allowing the market to catch back up. ![]() ![]() ![]() This allows the dogs to be controlled with a lot less overt force it’s too painful and choking to pull or “act like a fool” (as one owner describes his dog’s problematic behavior) with a narrow cord on your throat. When Leverette begins work with them, they are wearing very thin cord-like slip collars. Instead, the dogs simply learn to give up and give in to the force being used.īy the way, it’s never called out or shown explicitly, but when you first see each “problem dog,” they are generally wearing wide collars. It’s just that his methods call for making the dog do what he wants, when he wants – even if the dog is “flooded” and completely “over threshold,” physiologically aroused past a state of being able to learn. Leverette is not shown flagrantly inflicting pain on the dogs he’s a much more skilled trainer than that. And in cases of aggression, it’s well-established that the use of pain, force, and fear in training often worsens aggression.ĭon’t get me wrong. If an owner is motivated, there are always more ways to train a dog in order to “save” them, without having to resort to pain-inducing tools and methods. This sort of language triggers educated dog trainers. “This is life or death, pretty much, for her.” She won’t have a second chance….” The owner agrees. Leverette says, “If we don’t fix this, this dog is not gonna have a long future…. In the first episode, a guy described as a tech-business owner has adopted a pit bull-mix who displays aggression with strangers and visitors to the tech-guy’s home. Most significantly, poorly timed or inappropriate corrections are nearly guaranteed to worsen the dog’s behavior and increase his frustration, triggering defensive aggression.īut the usual justifications for the use of force are trotted out.Not everyone wants to use force with their dogs.Not everyone can make appropriate corrections with the timing required to make them effective.Though Leverette also describes his training as “modern,” up-to-date training professionals understand that while force-based training can be effective, there are MANY reasons it’s best avoided: ![]() ![]() ![]() There are three major issues: The first is that Leverette is a self-described “balanced trainer.” This has come to mean someone who uses food treats, toys, and praise to reinforce behaviors that they want from a dog – and physical “corrections” to punish unwanted behaviors. That’s a good thing, right? We all want people to enjoy their dogs more, and to learn how to train them! So why are so many trainers upset about the show? Within each hour-long episode, the dog’s problems are improved or resolved. He’s shown dispensing pithy pearls of dog-training wisdom, with other brief animal-behavior “facts” appearing in type on screen. The show is scripted and filmed like any reality TV show: Fairly ordinary situations are filmed in a way that dramatizes the problems people are having with their dogs, making the dogs seem incredibly dangerous and destructive, and the trainer is engaged in such a way as to appear near-heroic. I watched the first three (of six) episodes that currently appear on Netflix, and my first thought was, “Here we go again.” A few weeks ago, I started seeing posts on social media from dog trainers I know and admire, warning people about a new show on Netflix called “Canine Intervention.” The show features a dog trainer named Jas Leverette, who says, “I help the dogs that no one else will.” ![]() ![]() ![]() When and where will we listen to it? Will other people be there? Should people own music? Who should write it - the performers? What’s a normal amount to release at once? How will we find out about it? Will there be pictures? Are you absolutely, definitely sure we have to pay money for it? For the moment, there’s only one answer to these questions that seems to connect strangers in a truly monocultural way: We shall gather in huge, fawning riots around towering pop singles to trade politicized takes on them. ![]() We’ve spent the past century or so trying, in creaky and convulsive ways, to figure out what music is even for, and how we intend to use it. It’s songs that do this now individual songs and mass opinion, working in tandem. The point being: Here, for a moment, was music that actively dragooned me into paying attention to it, based not primarily on sound, performance or composition, but on the rolling snowball of perspectives, close readings and ideological disputes accreting around it. Either I needed to dutifully consume this object of conversation and develop an opinion about it or I needed to develop a defense of why I hadn’t yet done so. It’s just that Beyoncé released “ Formation” on a Saturday, and then performed it at the Super Bowl on Sunday, and as of Monday I hadn’t gotten around to it, for reasons that are incredibly uninteresting: I happened to have been doing other stuff, which seems as if it’s probably among my rights as an American.īy then, though, the song had become such an intense focus of discussion at the digital water cooler - to the point where it felt difficult to turn on a computer without someone’s views about “Formation” and its various sociopolitical valences reaching out and grasping for your throat - that my not having heard it acquired some kind of political dimension. It’s not as if I made some principled choice not to listen to it. 24 Sunday Candy Chance the Rapper Full Track.23 Stressed Out Twenty One Pilots Full Track.22 Weh Dem Feel Like Vybz Kartel Full Track.19 Partita for Eight Voices Caroline Shaw Full Track.18 Untitled Pharrell & J Balvin Full Track.15 Hymn for the Weekend Coldplay Full Track.12 The Blacker the Berry Kendrick Lamar Full Track.7 Hurtin’ (On the Bottle) Margo Price Full Track.4 Get Away Syd Tha Kyd & The Internet Full Track.2 Say No to This The ‘Hamilton’ Cast Full Track. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() GL_AMD_conservative_depth GL_AMD_depth_clamp_separate GL_AMD_draw_buffers_blend GL_AMD_framebuffer_multisample_advanced GL_AMD_gpu_shader_int64 GL_AMD_multi_draw_indirect GL_AMD_performance_monitor GL_AMD_pinned_memory GL_AMD_query_buffer_object GL_AMD_seamless_cubemap_per_texture GL_AMD_shader_stencil_export GL_AMD_shader_trinary_minmax GL_AMD_texture_texture4 GL_AMD_vertex_shader_layer GL_AMD_vertex_shader_viewport_index GL_ANGLE_texture_compression_dxt3 GL_ANGLE_texture_compression_dxt5 GL_ARB_ES2_compatibility GL_ARB_ES3_1_compatibility GL_ARB_ES3_2_compatibility GL_ARB_ES3_compatibility GL_ARB_arrays_of_arrays GL_ARB_base_instance GL_ARB_bindless_texture GL_ARB_blend_func_extended GL_ARB_buffer_storage GL_ARB_clear_buffer_object GL_ARB_clear_texture GL_ARB_clip_control GL_ARB_color_buffer_float GL_ARB_compressed_texture_pixel_storage GL_ARB_compute_shader GL_ARB_compute_variable_group_size GL_ARB_conditional_render_inverted GL_ARB_conservative_depth GL_ARB_copy_buffer GL_ARB_copy_image GL_ARB_cull_distĪnce GL_ARB_debug_output GL_ARB_depth_buffer_float GL_ARB_depth_clamp GL_ARB_derivative_control GL_ARB_direct_state_access GL_ARB_draw_buffers GL_ARB_draw_buffers_blend GL_ARB_draw_elements_base_vertex GL_ARB_draw_indirect GL_ARB_draw_instanced GL_ARB_enhanced_layouts GL_ARB_explicit_attrib_location GL_ARB_explicit_uniform_location GL_ARB_fragment_coord_conventions GL_ARB_fragment_layer_viewport GL_ARB_fragment_shader GL_ARB_framebuffer_no_attachments GL_ARB_framebuffer_object GL_ARB_framebuffer_sRGB GL_ARB_get_program_binary GL_ARB_get_texture_sub_image GL_ARB_gl_spirv GL_ARB_gpu_shader5 GL_ARB_gpu_shader_fp64 GL_ARB_gpu_shader_int64 GL_ARB_half_float_pixel GL_ARB_half_float_vertex GL_ARB_indirect_parameters GL_ARB_instanced_arrays GL_ARB_internalformat_query GL_ARB_internalformat_query2 GL_ARB_invalidate_subdata GL_ARB_map_buffer_alignment GL_ARB_map_buffer_range GL_ARB_multi_bind GL_ARB_multi_draw_indirect GL_ARB_occlusion_query2 GL_ARB_parallel_shader_compile GL_ARB_pipeline_statistics_query GL_ARB_pixel GfxDevice: creating device client threaded=1 ![]() Discovering subsystems at path /home/user/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Escape Simulator/EscapeSimulator_Data/UnitySubsystems Mono config path = '/home/user/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/Escape Simulator/EscapeSimulator_Data/MonoBleedingEdge/etc'ĭisplay 0 'LG HDR WQHD+ 38"': 3840x1600 (primary device).
