HOW TO SWIM BUTTERFLY FAST AND EASILY? BUTTERFLY KICKS. BUTTERFLY LESSON 2 @ Swimmate - Duration: 9:40.if it doesn't give me much speed. Why should I spend my time perfecting the technique?
Well, It's important
because it greatly affects your body position
which in turn affects your rhythm
these elements combined contribute to your speed
We'll start by doing some dryland exercises
This ankle exercise is effective for improving the flexibility of your feet
You can use a fitness mat to do the exercise comfortably
Get down on your knees and sit on your heels to get into the starting position
During the exercise, feet should stay in the same position as while swimming
meaning that the big toes should stick to each other and the heels should spread apart
The best practice is to keep sitting on the heels
with your arms behind you
and your knees are able to move upwards
Such perfect technique requires months of practice
Most likely, you will feel pain in your feet
when moving the knees upwards
In this case don't move them up to the very end
Move them only to the point at which you start to feel the pain
In this exercise you should always get a little pain, otherwise flexibility won't progress
Slowly on, you will reach great flexibility and your feet movement will be more relaxed and effective
You should do 3 sets with 12 repetitions in each
It is possible that these dryland exercises can cause some pain
However, it is impossible to improve flexibility without feeling a little pain
It is crucial to understand that it's not the kind of pain that you might feel when you are hit
also when you finish doing the exercise, the slight pain should immediately leave
In butterfly, for every one arm stroke, you should perform two kicks
The kick is done by both feet simultaneously
Non-simultaneous or freestyle kicks is a common mistake which many beginners do
In this video I will talk about common mistakes in butterfly swimming and how to avoid and fix them
The first kick starts in the middle of the arm stroke movement
in such a way that the kick is finished at the same time as the arm stroke
Remember that the first kick has less power than the second one
This is because a powerful kick needs a big amplitude from up to down
But the higher you move legs for a kick, the more water resistance you will gain, so your speed will be slower
After an arm stroke you'll have high speed
at this point you need to perform a smooth first kick
so that you gain additional speed and so that the water resistance does not increase
The second kick is done at the moment when the arms are entering the water
You might wonder - why is this kick is stronger?
It's because your speed decreases while you are returning your hands forward
At the moment, when you do the second kick, your speed is already quite low
and you really don't want to lose any more speed
So, you need a bigger amplitude and must do a stronger kick
The knees should be slightly bent before the kick
There is a common mistake when the knees are too bent before the first kick
As a result, the speed decreases and the body sinks into the water
It is very important to combine the wave-like movements of the body with the kick
You can help yourself in keeping up the correct working tempo of the legs by counting the kicks in a series:
one-two
one-two
one-two
Keep in mind that there is a little pause between the two kicks in the series
And a bigger pause between the series themselves
Another common mistake is doing freestyle kicks - the movement of the feet are not simultaneous
If this is something you want to fix, you must always stay focused on keeping your feet together
There is a good way to train this
put an elastic band around your feet so they are stuck together
Remember, this is a good option ONLY if you are confident about your swimming skills
Swimming with an elastic band on your feet may cause an uncomfortable feeling and it may also be dangerous
Be careful!
Also, you might see that some swimmers raise their legs so high
that the legs can be seen above the water – this is not correct
the legs must be fully in the water
The swimmer gains the speed only from the movements in the water
Any body movements above the surface slows you down
To fix this mistake, you should always monitor how you're doing the kicks
try different ways, compare your feelings
and get a friend to watch you!
In my first butterfly lesson, you have practiced the body movements
by doing dolphin kicks with the hands close to the legs
Now, you can train the kicks by using your experience from the previous practice
Keep up the constant working rhythm of the legs
and do the movements with a large amplitude during this exercise
Always double check that the resistance which you feel from the water
as you do the leg movements is not too strong
A difficult but useful technique drill is performing the dolphin kicks in a vertical position
It is not an easy drill, but it shows if your legs are working correctly or not
If your technique is good
then you'll be able to stay for a long time in the vertical position
because the power of your kicks will push you upwards
If the technique is not correct,
then your body will be shaking forwards and backwards quite much
This exercise should be done with smooth movements of the legs- back and forth, without the body shaking
You can also swim side dolphin kicks to practice the smoothness of the movements
I described this exercise on the 1st lesson
In the 1st lesson, I talked about doing dolphin kicks on the back
Then we focused on body movements
Now we're going to focus on kicking
The knees should not appear above the water surface during this exercise
If they do, it's something that you really must fix
The legs should constantly be in the water
Remember how it felt while you were doing the technical drills
Now start swimming with butterfly kicks while looking for the same feeling
There are a few ways to swim while just kicking
The most comfortable and suitable for most people
is when the hands are in front of the body, stretched forward without a kickboard
You can also use flippers for this exercise
Try to achieve the same feeling as when doing the technical drills
The second way to train butterfly kicks is with a kickboard
This is a good practice for those swimmers whose bodies are flexible enough
and who can do smooth body movements
If your body is not so flexible,
I recommend doing the butterfly kicks with yours hands stuck to the side of your body
or with your hands out in front of your body
Swimming with flippers will help beginners to experience the correct sensation of moving through the water
and will help them to practice proper technique
Remember to always control the body movements and the legs while swimming with flippers
Setting up the kicks is our second step of building good butterfly technique
It is crucial to learn to do the kicks correctly in a relaxed manner and only then move forward to the next lesson
In the next video, you will learn how to do an arm stroke
You have probably already seen that obtaining proper butterfly technique can take some time
What do you think? How much time does it usually take? leave your thoughts in the comments!

How to install and set-up the Estimator Pro sample template - Duration: 8:45.>> Hey and thanks for watching the video.
This is Todd Baginski,
I'm a Microsoft MVP,
and the partner and CTO at Canvas.
In this video, I'm going to show you how to install and
set up the Estimator Pro PowerApp Sample Template.
To install and set up
the Estimator Pro PowerApp Sample Template,
first go to web.powerapps.com like I have here,
and then click on the "Apps" tab.
After you click on the "Apps" tab,
scroll down in the "Make apps like these" section and
locate the Estimator Pro PowerApp Sample Template.
Here you can see it.
Then, you can click "Make this app."
When you click "Make this app", first,
you will pick the form factor of
the app you'd like to create.
You can either create
the mobile version like we see here,
or you can create the tablet version like we see here.
In this video, I'm going to create the tablet version,
so I'm going to click "Make this app."
When you click "Make this app",
you'll be prompted to login again,
and after you do so,
the PowerApps editor will load,
and the PowerApp will download into your editor.
After it's downloaded into the editor,
it will open up in the editor experience,
and the PowerApp will now be ready
to be saved to your environment.
As you can see, that process goes pretty quick.
Next thing you want to do is click "File",
and then, give the app a name, and click "Save."
Click "Save" one more time,
and now the app is saved
inside of your PowerApps environment.
At this point, you're then able to click
the "Share this app" button to share it with
other people in your organization.
To check that the app is working,
come up and click the "Preview" button.
Once you click the "Preview" button,
you should be able to see the app run and see
In-meeting invites from your calendar display right here.
Out of the box,
the Estimator Pro PowerApp Sample Template uses
internal collections to serve up the images
that are displayed on the Products page right here.
These images are set when you download it
inside of the "OnStart" function
right here in the Appointments screen.
This collection called ProductList created by
the ClearCollect function here defines the Title,
ID, ProductName, ProductPrice, ProductDescription,
and finally the Image that represents your product.
If you wish to use this PowerApp and
define their ProductList inside of the PowerApp itself,
all you need to do is edit the values in
here or if you need to add an additional product,
just copy and paste another product
like copying this section and pasting it back in below.
So, that's how you can add the different products
directly inside of the PowerApp itself.
As we come down to the last screen on
the PowerApp and take a look at it here,
it's called Setup PowerApp.
It also describes the steps I just described
here on how to configure
the PowerApp with internal collections.
It walks you through exactly what I just talked about
on how you can create
additional products within the PowerApp.
Now, another way you can go about creating
your products and make it a little
easier to update them
without having to work with the code inside
of the PowerApp is to connect
this PowerApp to a SharePoint list.
To do that, you'd follow these instructions right
here on how to configure
the PowerApp with the SharePoint list.
But before you actually configure
the PowerApp to use the SharePoint list,
you need to make the SharePoint list.
Those instructions are here in
the Setup-Sharepoint screen in the app.
As you can see,
these screens are instructions
instruct you to login to SharePoint,
go to the site collection where you want
the ProductList to be created,
click "Add an app", pick "Custom list."
After you do that,
enter the name ProductList,
and then go to
the upper right corner and
select "Create column" underneath
the Columns header to create the columns that
match the schema you see right here.
When you've done that,
it will look just like this.
So, I followed those exact same instructions here,
and I added in my products,
one through six here inside of my SharePoint list.
You can notice that this SharePoint list is in
my site called PowerAppsFlow,
and the list name is ProductList.
This list matches exactly the name that I specified here.
So, now that I have that done,
if I'd actually like to make this particular
PowerApp talk to my SharePoint list
instead of the internal collections,
I'll follow these steps right here.
So, the first step I'm going to
walk through him right now for you here,
is to go to back to the appointment screen and delete
the ClearCollect function from the OnStart property.
So, here's my appointments screen OnStart,
I said property before I meant function,
here's my ClearCollect function.
I'm going to go ahead and delete that entire piece,
and I'm also going to delete
this extra semicolon right here because if I don't,
this error will still be in the app.
So, there we go.
Now that's gone.
Next, I can return to
my setup SharePoint screen right here,
and look at the rest of the instructions.
The next instruction is go to "View",
"Data sources", and "Add a data source".
Select "SharePoint."
Pick the SharePoint list called ProductList,
and then click "Connect."
Because the name of
the data source ProductList that we get back from
the SharePoint list is
the exact same name as
that collection that we created internally,
that's the only change we need to make to
plumb the app so that it gets
the data from the SharePoint list.
So, I'll do that now.
I'm going to go up to "View", "Data source",
"Add data source", click "New connection" here,
then I'll scroll down and locate SharePoint.
Here it is. Now, I'm
going to connect to the SharePoint list,
so I'm connecting directly
into the cloud for the SharePoint list,
and it's going to come back and show me the list of
SharePoint sites that I have worked with before,
and allow me to locate a SharePoint list here.
If I don't see
that SharePoint site inside of my list here,
you can enter the full URL here.
But here's the one that I'm working with.
So, I'm going to create that one,
and here's my ProductList.
As I mentioned before,
if you don't see it in the list,
just type it in here and click this checkbox.
Then click "Connect."
After you do that,
the connection will be added to your PowerApp, and now,
if you actually go back
to the home screen of your PowerApp,
we can again verify we are not getting our products here.
From the OnStart function,
we can play our PowerApp.
We can pick on an individual estimate.
Go through the Order screen,
and now here are the products that are coming from
my SharePoint list instead of
from inside of the PowerApp itself.
So, that's how you go about setting up
the Estimator Pro PowerApp Sample Template.
We hope this video helps you install it,
and you get a lot out of
this app in your own organization.
If you wish to see more videos about
this app including an end-to-end tour of
all the functionality as well as deep dives that
describes some of the cool things
we did in this PowerApp,
I encourage you to check out the other videos I made.
I look forward to seeing how you extend
this app in your own organization,
and I hope it comes in handy for you.
I'll see you next time. Thanks.

How to BBQ a lamb leg - Duration: 2:10.Here's how to roast a leg of lamb
in a covered barbecue over indirect heat.
Start by lighting the burners under one half of the barbecue.
Then coat the lamb with olive oil,
using your hands to rub it all over the skin,
and season with salt and pepper.
To start cooking the lamb,
lay it fat-side down on the lit side of the barbecue.
Close the barbecue and cook for 10 minutes or until well browned.
Then turn over and transfer it to a roasting pan.
Place the lamb in the pan over the unlit side of the barbecue.
Close the barbecue again and cook for about two hours,
rotating halfway through.
If you don't have a covered barbecue, you can use your oven for this.
Just preheat it to 190 degrees Celsius.
When the lamb is cooked to your liking,
remove it from the barbecue, cover with foil
and set aside to rest for about 15 minutes.
This helps to ensure the meat
will be succulent and juicy when you carve it.
While it's resting, whip up a simple salad.
Here's one that's great with lamb.
Take a large bowl and add some salad leaves,
chargrilled asparagus,
cooked sugar snap peas and snow peas,
roasted red capsicums...
..and red onion.
Drizzle with a dressing of olive oil and vinegar.
Then toss it together gently.
To carve the lamb,
start by carving a 'V' piece from the top.
Then continue cutting thin slices at the same angle.
Serve your barbecued lamb
with the salad and chargrilled bread.
That's how you freshen up
the classic Aussie lamb roast,
by cooking it outside on your barbie.

HOW TO: FOUR FILMING ANGLES FOR FREERIDE - Duration: 3:40.It's pretty nuts how much cameras have shrunk in the last few years and
actually some of them even started to fly.
Today we're gonna be talking about my favorite angles
to capture and share an amazing day in the mountains.
So first of all the P of V angle.
It's a really nice angle to cut a shot and to transition from the main angle.
Right!
One important rule with the POV is to try to vary the angles and vary the shots as much as possible.
The POV is also a great tool to tell a story, so what I do quite often, in a line
is that I'll be riding, I'll be stopping in a crack in the line and I would stick out my helmet
and quickly tell the story.
The aerial angle, this is my favorite and it's been the latest revolution
to being able to take a drone in the mountain for everyday riding.
The aerial angle is really crucial to being able to show the real dimension of a line.
Before drones the only way to shoot aerials was with helicopters.
In our expeditions we've been trying all sorts of different tools and toys to being able to film from the air
and finally the drones have arrived, they've miniaturised a ton
and they make our life so much easier to tell the story
and really show the dimension of the place and of the line
And then there is the Barbie angle, which is the good old school angle,
which you will be filming, sitting in front of your line, with your barbecue going with a big lens
and which will kind of give a big overall impression of the line.
It's totally skippable if you have a drone, but if you don't it's a mandatory angle
And then there is the on slope angle, like when someone is shooting you from inside the line.
This is never going to be you main angle but it's a great way to show reaction from close.
I think it is a great satisfaction to being able to capture all your best moments
and share them with your friends but, hey at the end of the day let's not forget,
to live the actual moment, and I mean for real.

LEARN TO BEATMATCH - 03 How to use the Pitchfader - Duration: 3:02.In this video, I will show you how to Tempo-match two tracks, without the use of the "SYNC" button
It's essential because it gives you greater control over your mix, plus it's also fun to do !
Like I said before, Manual beatmatching is still an important skill that all DJs SHOULD LEARN
because one day, maybe hitting "Sync" will not work as expected.
Especially if you plan to play more funky music than regular beats.
Just talk about music and speed.
The unit used to measure the speed of a song (also called Tempo) is the BPM.
BPM means Beats Per Minute, so when the BPM is high, the song is fast.
Each music genre has it's own BPM range.
For example, Hip-Hop is around 90 BPM,
POP ROCK is around 100 BPM,
HOUSE around 120 BPM,
and finally DUBSTEP 140 BPM.
In general, to make the beatmatching process easier, DJs are trying to choose music in
the same kind of genre, and within 5% of BPM distance.
My advice, to train your ears, is to begin with House music because the rhythm is more
easy to feel.
Let's go into our demo library and load 2 demo songs: House Loop1 in Deck number 1
and House Loop 2 in Deck number 2
You can see that DJUCED has automatically calculated the BPM of these songs.
Deck one is 120 BPM and Deck 2: 124
So, How do we match tempos without using the SYNC button?
Well, that's what the Pitch Faders are for!
The Pitch faders let you speed up or slow down a track
Pushing it up, slows down the track,
Pushing it down speeds it up!
Putting the Pitch fader in the middle position will play the track at its original speed.
You can see the speed changing in real time on the DJUCED interface :
the tempo value is changing right here, and the waveform expands or contracts
Let's hit play on the Left Deck. If I want to Tempo-match the 2 tracks,
I need to slow down Deck 2's speed
from 124 to 120 BPM
So I need to move the Pitchfader UP.
If you use a controller with the BEATMATCH GUIDE feature, you can see that little red arrow
telling me to move the slider up until I reach the good position.
When I catch the right value, the red arrows turn on for one second, then switch off.
It allows you to match BPMs between songs without looking at your computer!
It's a great function to train your ears.
And Voila! You can now see that both songs have the same
BPM, so the same speed.
In the next video, we'll learn how to beat match with the jog wheels
Now, it's your turn!
-------------------------------------------
LEARN TO BEATMATCH - 02 How to count the Beats - Duration: 1:57.In this Video, we will learn together how to count the music like a DJ
As you probably know, the time in music is not measured in minutes and seconds, but in
Bars and Beats
Most of the Music you'll play, as a DJ, is 4/4 Time.
4/4 time is the classic notation to say Four Beats in One BAR of Music
DJs have a simple method to count music : it's the 4 Bar counting trick.
To do this exercise, you can go into your Song Library in DJUCED, select "Demo songs"
then drag the HOUSE LOOP 1
into the Deck One, like this.
Then, hit the play button on your controller and count like this :
1-2-3-4 / 2-2-3-4 /3-2-3-4 / 4-2-3-4 / 1-2-3-4… and so on.
So, why did I do this?
I have counted 4 Bars, and each Bar has 4 beats in it.
The reason I count like this is that something generally happens on THE ONE
THE ONE is the first beat of the first Bar.
This is where, as a DJ, I generally Put a CUE point, to start my track from the ONE.
When you play your track, hitting the CUE Button returns you to the CUE point you set.
It stops the playback, so you are ready to drop your track on the FIRST BEAT.
In DJUCED, you can see the CUE marker as an ORANGE TRIANGLE under the waveform.
If you want to change the position of your CUE point, just move to another position on
the playhead, and hit the CUE button when the song is stopped.
Now, You know how to count music like a DJ and how to put a CUE point on the first beat!
Don't forget that training your ear to count and feel the beats is something really important,
my advice is to do the same exercise every time you are listening to music.
Now, it's your turn!

Who is the real monster in Frankenstein? | HOW TO SEE Hammer Horror with Anne Morra - Duration: 6:20.I think the reason why the story of Frankenstein is so ubiquitous across cinema is because
it's so basically frightening.
The Hammer Films, their horror films really indulge in the gothic.
It's a castle.
It's darkness.
It's a stormy night.
This mournful music.
There's a heightened romanticism.
Asking yourselves who is the real monster is a huge part of what these films are about.
Who is responsible for creating life?
Not only the mechanics of the creation of life, but the idea of this higher power.
My name is Anne Morra.
I'm a film curator at the Museum of Modern Art.
And today, we're going to look at Frankenstein in the movies and pay special attention to
"The Hammer Horror Series."
So Hammer Films began in 1935.
And like many British film companies, they were really interested in this idea of realism
and reflection of daily life in the films that they were making.
And it really wasn't until the 1950s when they moved their operation to a place called
Bray Studios, and in this gothic house and that's when they really began to think
"How are we going to make money?
Aha, teenagers go to the movies."
The Hammer studios begins their 1950s assault on the cinema with sci-fi films.
It's not till 1957 when they create their first Frankenstein movie, "The Curse of Frankenstein."
Mary Shelly was the author of "Frankenstein; or, the Modern Prometheus."
Her concept of what the monster looked like was a combination of Greek statuary, this
idea of the outrageous primitive man.
And if you look at the 1910 version of Frankenstein, you get that.
But Mary Shelley did not necessarily conjure the mechanical man.
He was definitely more human.
You know, there were no electrodes and things like that coming out of his neck.
The Hammer monster really has a different visage in each film.
Sometimes you have a monster that looks like a Sasquatch.
Sometimes you have a monster that is cobbled together of other bodies and then really glued
together with cement.
They're very strange-looking creatures.
But there's something weirdly human about them.
They're not so much a machine.
They're not so hard-edged.
They're much more anatomical.
They're much more flesh-like.
And I think that, in a way, that's what makes the monster much more sympathetic.
In the Hammer films, it doesn't matter what the monster looks like.
Often the monster doesn't even play a significant role until the last portion of the film.
They're asking you to think more deeply about the doctor than they are asking you
to be scared of the monster – which isn't to say the monster isn't scary.
What the Hammer films do in terms of contributing to our broad view of Frankenstein is create
this conflicted Frankenstein who is so hell-bent on his experiments because he knows what's
right, although he knows around him that his colleagues believe what he's doing is wrong.
The church certainly doesn't want him to do what he's doing.
But he's going to go ahead and do these experiments anyhow.
Unlike the doctor in the 1931 Universal film, who was a bit hysterical, Peter Cushing's
doctor is calm, collected, methodical, and very arrogant.
We see this doctor, he's a human being, but he may be more monstrous than the monster.
And I think that's something that the Hammer films really discuss in this psychological way.
The doctor is a murderer.
Essentially, he is an anti-hero.
If he needs a pair of legs, he's going to get those pair of legs, and he's not really
too picky about where they come from.
The evil is that he just has no self-awareness.
I don't think that the Hammer films today would be considered particularly gory.
But at the time at mid-century, following a debilitating war and the horrors that people
experienced, seeing a glass jar filled with eyeballs in formaldehyde would be incredibly
gory and gruesome.
They did receive an X rating, and that sort of propelled them forward.
People wanted to see those films.
There are so many contemporary movies that deal with that idea of the reanimation of
the dead, the reuse of the body.
All of these kinds of machine made men I think are all pulled out from the Frankenstein story.
Do people actually die?
Is there a finite sense of existence?
Frankenstein is a classic, and it will continue to be part of cinema.
So those are my thoughts on Frankenstein in film history.
What do you think?
Is the doctor more monstrous than the creature?
And amongst the Frankenstein films, which are your favorites?
