So, welcome to my second content that I will talk about in part of our publications, which is about being where I can improve in the last couple of months. And, you know, I see a lot of this, so I don't know much about the interaction I need to do, but just in case everybody here comes to talk as well, I didn't know before I stopped it. So, basically, if you have a panel, the usual format for a panel is that you have many rows, which are all about some item, and then the formulas, which are new columns. And each of the columns is called a formal group, which is exactly the same format, just with a different concept, and each row is pretty much independent, which if you think about it as a parallel, parallelism of a random law, it's, in some ways, basically a complex to be computed in parallel. So, there has been a requirement in the last couple of years, and basically it makes sense to improve this a little more, because CPUs for the last couple of years, they haven't been getting that much faster about they have been, and they will still get more and more copies, so it makes more sense tomorrow. And, yeah, also, since the data is separate, it should be a parallelism. I think all of you have heard of the history of random device problems with threads, like blocking problems and so on, but since Intel is crazy about independent, it shouldn't be too bad. So, as far as the implementation, each cell has its cost, which has definitely had to form each cell, and the result, and so on. And there is a formal sum of groups, which, like groups, all come together once the code is the same, just with a different offset, and then the implementation starts with each form of CPU core, and they each compute different cells with different data. And that's about the advantages with threads, most important, because you don't really need a character, you have different data, you need to block everything, so it should be safe. I don't think it's friendly, right? So, I suppose that there are generally many things, there are many functions which just work as they are, because this has worked with data and several parts, each of them has a different data. There are some cases, like the number for network, which is not so safe, but some of the problems can be solved by shifting the bike away from shopping for this event. And the implementation goes away, and sometimes you do need to block, if there is just one point, the last mention is to share the data, in case if you have to block and force it along, it will hurt the parallelism, but it is a solution for your problem, and if you plan for a nice person, it's going to be a lot easier for you. So, that's for the introduction. Don't always talk about this last year, so I don't know much into this career, and I will just, basically, just in case you want to do some of the problems, here are some of the problems I have seen, some of the problems I have faced, and I will also some of the ideas that I want to do in my experiments, which I show off. How many problems have actually worked with COMP recently? If I tell you stuff like, don't please the big variables, is it boring? Problems are just sort of up, and what goes up is that it simply crashes someday. And in many cases, we have things like static variables. It seems in the past it used to be a common common usage pattern, just uses static variables, just if you would be entering something from a function. So, in many cases, it's just don't do anything. Like, doing a static string or anything for an interval doesn't really make sense nowadays. Like when it's in a class, it's very weird. It's just an index inside of it, so you could have just one point inside of the container. It's very bad, I still found cases like this, so it's just, if there is something like, this option is just a common class, which will keep you static, and then you can have it static for each event. But in some cases, I just found that whoever developed their class most was static or something, and just included very low data in the class, because it was probably too much work as a class in this environment or something like that. And in some cases, where it doesn't make sense, it's cashing it, like, out of the code, so it makes sense to cache it. In that case, it makes sense to sometimes it was necessary to split the cache for use back or if it's locked in, it depends on the user's case. But in many cases, there are rules with functionality, and it's great for a new month, and you can just create everything at the beginning, because it would be so much not just spend just initializing all the classes, like the SC global class, it has like several bands of various different classes that you could use. And some of the initializations, maybe more cases on this, so it was quite common. So, first of all, which I've got is that fast on the same page, so if you don't care, you will do many, many times, you can just, maybe it's very common to get initialization, uses the data checking, it's nothing, which actually is safe, it's impossible. You may have it, but it's impossible to do. I should spend some time really early in the class, which can be initialization, probably for the most possible, it seems to work. Because, like, the basic problem is that you are never, when a person should connect with you, just some of the problems can show up only if you can do it in a larger group, so that because you're kind of ready to access to some really big machine, that I don't have, and since it was very important in the class, it was more likely to run into in the college in the community, that kind of a group. But, it doesn't sound the same. Even though the graph is used just in some places, all of the library code is not safe. So, sometimes, for some of the groups, they're probably because, again, sometimes, it's actually something stupid, like I said, they're static, static variables, or something which simply can't be written. But, safe, which is, which may not be allowed to some library class, use the library thing, it may possibly have to performance. In some places, you may probably go just for the time itself. There is this special time in the text, the big, or sort of text, I expect everybody to have, probably have heard of it, where, out of the population, the manifest still keeps the sort of text locked, which means the population threads cannot use it, which means, if, for example, I do, Europe calls from the population threads. And, if I just start, there will be a bit more macOS, which is, by the byte, internal threads of the graph is, and it can just behave everything. Which I would say, but because of this, if it turns out to be, maybe this, maybe, there is a way to manage this, right? If the manifest just keeps the, keeps it in there, it's maybe it's going to be a version for the complex of that, or maybe it will change that but so far, as it is, it kind of works. And, quite often, it's the address, some code, which is developed, and to be run with threads is very small. And, the racism can't so, to run with threads, maybe there is a proper function for it. A special case is, the complex of threads are meant to be quite limited to what they do. Like, basically, they just give developers a result, and that's it. And, they should know, for example, what we find in the current search. So, they have checked for days, because the cart originally wasn't ready for it, so they might discuss with them. Sometimes there will be constant days if, it must be before yet. The cart version of threads should get the result immediately. So, a specific solution is just saying, it can work. There are some places, which are just too complicated. For example, even some of the type functions, like, as I showed, each of them, there are some operations, which you can add data in that process. It's really difficult for the code to ensure that the part of the project is not 100% data. So, like, keeping that in that function, it's hard to find out where the code is so just it doesn't work. It's like this. If you experiment functionally, it's the SC model, it's all, you know, calls, that works. For example, because of solid interest, and there are some big, big causes, which use a sense of question, and maybe it's essential, but for now, it's like this. So, if you did the data that we shared, and if you did the data that we shared, then really it's enough to have one instance for every part of this, every single thread. Sometimes after the number from the other class, we just create one for this thread, and then just if more threads need to form out the number, then they manage each of their class. So, if you don't have a new file, and you just need to have a different text, because this needs to be passed around, so that the function that we shared is using the context that we use also for other interesting problems, like this is one that I have used, this one is very new. You have your new function, which is normally used for the way that this the same row looks up in the same number, and the same row runs there, but each column needs a new one. It needs to survive every computation, because the each column is a separate run, and the context goes away. So, there are some functions for selling the data, and storing it. So, in this case, for example, we have to do a parallel analysis to see how it works. As I said, there are several functions that we can use for selling the data. So, for example, computing the result and setting the result and setting it and setting it for a formal image. This is simply not a failure, it was difficult, but it was nice that it could be postponed, so just it's possible in some cases just to save the data in the context, in the main context. We'll just go clean up at the end. Yeah, if I'm not sure if it works or not, we'll just go ahead and start, and if some later it shows up, it will not necessarily say that okay, you've got something which I'm not supposed to call. So, if you've got the ideas that you need to come, don't be afraid to add them ourselves. I mean, it's better for some change, but sometimes the code change I don't even really need it. So, if you make an assumption just to make an assumption by the asset and if it makes it in the future, it will be easier to find out where or you know the project in general, right? Is there something that doesn't work? It's a really useful tool. So, it's actually not just a bad tool. It has a lot of tools. I've got a tool which is for benchmarking, but one of the tools which is useful now is hardware coverage. Basically, there are a lot of things like you are accessing this data, and you are using this new things here, but you are not using it here. Of course, since it's a physical game, it's based on the combination with the barrel phase, such as, take one out, but still, finding some problems is really difficult. Looking for a problem, which perhaps will be some study where I look at some module and some library with barrel phase. So, I need to be done and I need to find it. And so, if you want to navigate, you need to be done and you need to find it. So, if you struggle, this is your ultimate solution, so far. It can be often a problem. Basically, you can ask the question, as far as I know, I can ask them, code tries to be smart, but when do you spend it? Well, I think I just do so, it doesn't make sense to use that because just to set it up, they'll need more time than they actually receive it. So, there is a test, do not always test it. And they're actually distributed to the group because, for example, it's best to have a calculation of some basic operations. And I'm going to find out some potential problems which will be the same, mainly for size. But this is a too many slides. I'm going to do a scratch test. Documents around what it actually works. And also, the latest stability release, I think, I think, yeah, confident in the stability release and so far, I've never found any problems. I'm spending a lot of time.


Item number, SCP-032 Object Class, Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-032 is to be housed in automated containment unit 535-15 Direct contact with SCP-032 is to be restricted to research-relevant tasks only. Interviews, if deemed necessary, are to be carried out using the unit's remote communication array. While SCP-032's presence is not directly harmful to the human body, exposure to it is to be limited to periods of 12 hours or less due to its adverse effects on most beneficial microorganisms. SCP-032 is not to be exposed to any biological material not refined or otherwise tempered by humanity, with an emphasis on non-human living entities. SCP-032 neither requires nor requested substances or other forms of comfort. Description SCP-032 is a type F, imperfect external resemblance internally inconsistent, human simulacrum of currently unknown origins. It is composed of an outer shell of pigmented silicone 5.5mm thick and various plastic fiber polymers with an outward appearance of a Caucasian woman nearing the third decade of life. SCP-032's interior is composed entirely of liquid refined oil lacking any skeletal or muscle structure. Despite this, SCP-032 is capable of locomotion and speech. SCP-032 is capable of maintaining the illusion of humanity at a moderate distance but becomes unconvincing at a closer range, causing mild discomfort in most observers. This effect has been deemed non-anomalous. Despite apparently possessing fully realized cognitive abilities, SCP-032 claims that it is not sapient, acting only as an intermediary instrument of its creators. The Foundation has not been able to verify or refute this claim as of yet. SCP-032 possesses extreme adverse effects to any biological entity in its close vicinity, not created, willfully influenced, manipulated by, or similarly relating to, humanity. While the exact nature of these effects varies, SCP-032's presence inevitably causes severe and irreparable damage to the ability of any living organism to exchange and or use energy. Wild Flora loses its ability to photosynthesize or otherwise produce or consume energy, fauna of the use of its respiratory and digestive systems, etc. This applies to microorganisms as well, though SCP-032's effects seem to favor damage to their reproductive systems instead. It is hypothesized that this symbiotic relation some microorganisms have to humanity is the reason for this discrepancy. SCP-032 was discovered sitting on the doorstep of the inner compound of Foundation's site near Vrk, Slovakia. When questioned by Foundation security personnel, SCP-032 explained its anomalous effects and claims it was there to be stored. Surveillance footage show no record of the time of its arrival, and it is not yet known how SCP-32 came to know Site Vrk's location or approach it without being spotted. When asked for its reason for seeking Foundation custody, SCP-032 replied that it was there at the command of its creators, seeking indefinite storage until claimed. Addendum – Interview 032-A Note, this interview was recorded near the time of SCP-032's initial containment by Dr. Alexander Kovach, Site Vrk's resident psychologist following its initial examination by Site security. Dr. Kovach, before we begin, there's something I feel I should ask you, since security so often neglects doing so. It's not strictly conforming to protocol, but I find it tends to make things easier. SCP-032, I was instructed to cooperate. Dr. Kovach, good, very good. Tell me then, what is your name? SCP-032, I don't have one, people have names, I'm not one. Dr. Kovach, is that so? What did your so-called creators call you then? SCP-032, they didn't. Dr. Kovach, surely they had to refer to you somehow. SCP-032, I'm a vessel of their will and nothing else. They never needed to call, they never will. Dr. Kovach, in that case, would you mind if I referred to you as SCP-032? SCP-032, I was instructed to cooperate. Dr. Kovach, so you said, so you said. Tell me then, what is the purpose of your coming here? SCP-032, I'm to be stored here until collected. Dr. Kovach, security told me that much, but why here, and collected by whom? SCP-032, collected by the ones they wished to torment, and stored here because in finding me here he will suffer further. Dr. Kovach, is that so? Is that person you referred to part of this organization then? Do your creators bear some grudge towards a particular operative? SCP-032, he is not one of you, merely a one-time sympathizer of sorts. He believes you tried to help him once, and if he is forced here, if he finds me here, you will die. That will hurt him. They have no interest in any of you or your organization. You are here as a tool, just as I am. Dr. Kovach, who is this man then? What did he do to earn this sort of treatment from your creators? SCP-032, he did not know his place, one when he should have lost, and was proud when he should have been humbled, was wasteful with gifts too precious for abuse. Dr. Kovach, and you are here as punishment. SCP-032, he was already punished, severely forced away from kin and kind to endlessly wander, to destroy against his will, to poison humanity by his very presence. Eternal solitude, flavored by ceaseless guilt, a master work of torment they say. Dr. Kovach, if that's the case, why are you here? SCP-032, because even in this existence, there is the occasional moment of solace. At times he may yet look to the world and see things he will not destroy, look to nature and feel warm wonder, and bask in the false light of ancient, moldy memories. It keeps him sane, gives him hope, that will not serve, hence my presence. I am to be his last undoing, a hastening to the end of reason. Dr. Kovach, and how will your presence do that? Are you meant to deceive him in some way? Is that why you look the way you do? SCP-032, in a manner of speaking. Eventually, his wanderings will lead him here, to me, in a day, or a month, or a century, and he will recognize me, and see what they think of his precious memories, how they mock them. He'll understand that because of his actions, she is forever beyond his grasp, and all that remains to him is me, a simulacrum as artificial as his hope. When he finds me, I will attach myself to him, and he will watch the mockery of his memories destroy his last source of solace, and that will be that. Dr. Kovach, I, um, you said he will recognize you, why? SCP-032, I used to be his wife. End log. Interview 032-B. Note, this interview was held 6 months following SCP-032's initial containment, as part of a series of interviews meant to evaluate SCP-032's cognitive abilities and personality, or lack thereof. Begin log. SCP-032, I hate her. Dr. Kovach, that's certainly a way to start an interview. Care to elaborate? SCP-032, the one I was made to look like. My. Mold.  SCP-032, I don't. I hate her because they want me to. It serves their purpose. Dr. Kovach, how do you get that impression? SCP-032, the first thing they did after creating me, was to show her to me. It's not something they often do. Dr. Kovach, I don't follow. SCP-032, interfere with those who passed beyond their halls. They might be vengeful, spiteful, even cruel, but they take their duties very seriously. Just to show her to me, to risk disturbing her final rest, they wouldn't do that without a purpose. Dr. Kovach, and SCP-032, she was beautiful, so peaceful, serene, whole, even gone, even dead. I could see the essence of who she used to be, of who she still was, and forever will be, her soul. They told me she didn't get to live for all that long, but when she lived, she was herself. She was alive, and so I hated her. SCP-032, do you know what it feels like to be made as a mockery? In every line of that smooth, silent face, I saw a twisted reflection in my own, fragrant skin to molded plastic, soft hair to synthetic fiber, blood to oil, soul to nothing at all. Dr. Kovach, excuse me if this sounds presumptuous, but I can't imagine feelings like this coming from anywhere but yourself. SCP-032 shakes head, can't you see?  SCP-032, then, a final realization. Dr. Kovach, and what would that be? SCP-032, he never won. Item number, SCP-070, Object Class, SAFE. Special Containment Procedures, SCP-070 is to be kept within a 10 meter by 10 meter reinforced concrete room, that is to be guarded and remotely monitored at all times. This room must always be well stocked with non-perishable food and water, as well as basic amenities for humanoid SCPs. Every personnel assigned to SCP-070 are to carry sticky foam guns, in addition to standard armaments. Structural integrity of SCP-070's containment room is to be checked twice daily. In case of excessive structural damage, SCP-070 is to be incapacitated and relocated to a nearby backup containment room, as described above. If a reinforced concrete room of sufficient strength is not available, SCP-070 may be temporarily contained in a cell of stronger material, until another concrete room can be prepared. SCP-070 is to be given sedatives and painkillers on request, but no more than maximum dosages determined by Dr. Dumount. Personnel who enter SCP-070's containment room for any reason must be unarmed, and should wear puncture resistant body armor. Armed guards must remain outside and out of sight of SCP-070. In case of containment breach due to some nambulism, security personnel are to alert site administration, place food and water in the apparent path of SCP-070, and maintain a clear zone of 25 meters around SCP-070. In any other case of containment breach, or if SCP-070 becomes violent during some nambulism, personnel are authorized to incapacitate SCP-070 using sticky foam. Care must be taken to avoid smothering SCP-070. As SCP-070 reflexively responds violently to injury or attack, security personnel should refrain from using lethal force, or otherwise injuring SCP-070 if at all possible. Description SCP-070 appears to be a human male of Native American descent, with a normal appearance, saved for a pair of rusty metal wings emerging from his back. Each wing is composed of several flat iron bars, about 6 centimeters wide, connected end-to-end by rotating rivets, to form an articulated length of metal over 2 meters long. Hanging from these bars are chains of various lengths, 22 on each wing, each tipped with a barbed arrowhead. SCP-070 appears to have no other anomalous properties besides these wings. The wings of SCP-070 appear to act independently of the person they are attached to, and SCP-070 has stated repeatedly that it has no control over them. However, when damage has been done to the wings, SCP-070 has shown signs of physiological distress, including sweating, reduced blood flow to face, and screaming in pain. The wings have been observed to fold and expand, shoot out and whip its chains at high speed, both individually and collectively, and anchor its arrowheads into concrete, wood, and like materials. While SCP-070 has not displayed any overt hostility to personnel, it will often react violently to perceived threats, by lashing its chains out at a silence, and wrapping its chains around its body in a defensive posture. The most effective means of subdual has proven to be sticky foam, non-lethal weaponry, which can reliably ensnare SCP-070's chains from a safe distance. Despite their rusted appearance, the wings and chains of SCP-070 are as strong as high-quality alloy steel. However, they're also as dense as steel, and SCP-070 cannot move about as a normal human due to the weight of its wings. As yet, SCP-070 has been unable or unwilling to use its wings to facilitate human locomotion. SCP-070 spends much of its time anchored to the walls and ceiling of its containment cell, usually sedated. Addendum 070-1, Incident 070-1, Onward at 336, SCP-070 breached containment. Security personnel were advised that SCP-070 appeared to be asleep, and were ordered to not engage SCP-070, and to keep others away. By lashing and anchoring chains into the walls and ceiling in front of it, SCP-070 was able to carry itself, still apparently asleep, through sighting. SCP-070 broke into the food stores of canteen 4, and proceeded to gorge itself on the available food and water. Almost 19 minutes later, apparently sated, SCP-070 returned to its containment room. At no time did SCP-070 appear to wake up. SCP-070 claimed no knowledge of the event afterward. Item 070-2, Personal Background Interviews have revealed that SCP-070 is named and is capable of reciting the correct social security number for a US citizen of the same name and age. SCP-070 claims to be a member of the Kiowa tribe, and data expunged. SCP-070 claims to not know how the wings came to be, only remembering waking up in a scrapyard with them after taking a lot of peyote the night before. Item 070-3, Object Class, Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-070-3 is to be kept in a two-room cell, furnished with all non-organic furniture and items, and a bathroom. Subject is allowed to freely wander the facility and eat in the main canteen. A tracking device has been attached to SCP-070's person, and is not to be removed. Subject is disallowed any contact with the surface, and is not allowed outside the facility. Subject is allowed no contact with plant-based SCPs, under any circumstances. Violence is not to be used against SCP-073 under any circumstances. SCP-073 is currently kept in Site-17. Description SCP-073 appears to be a heavily tanned male of Arabic or Middle Eastern descent in his early 30s, 185 cm or 6 feet and 1 inches tall, and 75 kg or 165 lbs, with black hair and blue eyes. Arms, legs, spinal cord, and shoulder blades of the subject appear to have been replaced with artificial versions of unknown make and metal. Subject only takes notice of this when it is pointed out, and states that it has no knowledge of how, why, or when these replacements took place, stating it had them as long as it could remember. There is a symbol engraved into the forehead of the subject, which appears to be of Sumerian origin. Symbol has as of yet been untranslated, and subject appears distressed when the symbol is mentioned at all, refusing to speak on it. Subject does not need to eat and drink on a regular basis, but is strictly carnivorous, owing to its effect on plant-based items. SCP-073, who refers to itself as Cain, is generally polite and genial to all who speak to it, though it has been described as being cold and somewhat mechanical in its speech. It is very helpful and enjoys aiding personnel in their daily actions, whatever they may be. It has highly detailed knowledge of ancient to recent events in history, and most commonly spoken languages in the world, including ones that have since died out. SCP-073 has professed to having a photographic memory, remembering word for word all text in an 800-page dictionary that was flicked through in a minute and a half. It has scored above average in all intelligence tests given to it. SCP-073's presence is inimical to any in all life grown in soil, causing death to any such life within a 20-meter radius. Any land SCP-073 has walked on, and any within the 20-meter radius, becomes barren as all anaerobic bacteria dies, rendering the soil incapable of supporting life until new bacteria are introduced. Anything that is derived from soil grown life, such as wood and paper, immediately rots and disintegrates upon touch of SCP-073. Further affected derivatives include anything hydroponically grown. Violence directed towards SCP-073 reflects any damage inflicted on SCP-073 directly back onto the attacker, although SCP-073 visibly remains unharmed. This applies to any damage directed at SCP-073. Attempts to get tissue and blood samples have proven futile. When the procedure was initiated, personnel carrying out the action felt the sensation of whatever was applied to SCP-073 and wound up with a sample of their own blood or tissue. Despite the fact that all actions were directed solely at SCP-073, indirect damage through a medium also results in the person perpetrating the action receiving the wounds caused. Although SCP-073 receives no actual harm from damage to its person, it has stated that it still feels the pain of the action, and has politely asked researchers to abstain from overly harmful actions to its person. Additional Notes SCP-073 was found in the New York Police Department in 19, having been taken in after a subject had been found amidst the bodies of several violent gang members.  SCP-073 was incarcerated and was deemed a John Doe when NYPD could not find any information on it. SCP-073 came to the attention of the Foundation through a routine inspection of John Doe's and was subsequently released into our custody. Addendum 073-1 In light of SCP-073's indestructible nature, photographic memory, and general will to please, High Command have deemed that all information is to be backed up on SCP-073, ensuring it is not lost in the event of a catastrophe. While this action has met with mixed responses, SCP-073 has agreed and sworn itself to secrecy on its part. Addendum 073-2 When information concerning SCP-076 was brought to the attention of SCP-073 for backing up, subject showed familiarity with the information, although was disinclined to adding to it, despite the fact that it stated that it already knew all about SCP-076. It then stated it would be better for all parties involved that it not meet SCP-076. Addendum 073-3 Examination of the unidentified metal on SCP-073 has suggested that it is beryllium bronze, a metal that has been documented as being utilized by various anomalous cultures and entities. Most notably, beryllium bronze is a component found in SCP-1216, SCP-1427, SCP-2481, and SCP-2711. In light of this discovery, the Foundation began working in an attempt to trace the origin of beryllium bronze, and how it initially spread throughout the world. When prompted, SCP-073 was able to provide information that suggests that beryllium bronze originated in the Middle East, though the exact point of origin has yet to be determined. Further research into the origin of beryllium bronze is currently ongoing. Item number SCP-100 Uplid Special Containment Procedures SCP-100 is to have six guards patrolling the interior of the perimeter's fencing and two guards dedicated to the monitoring of the interior and exterior of both warehouses in the residential building, with rotations to occur every three hours. Any unauthorized personnel found within SCP-100 are to be detained for questioning prior to amnestic administration and release. Three guards are to remain within the storefront of SCP-100, with rotations to occur every eight hours. The storefront front entrance is to remain locked at all times, with keys provided to necessary personnel. Private property and no trespassing signs are to be posted on the front of the storefront to deter any drivers from stopping at SCP-100. Any constructs SCP-101 creates are to be removed from SCP-100 and melted down into slag, with the exception of SCP-102A and SCP-102B. Should SCP-101 become uncooperative, SCP-102A and SCP-102B may be removed from SCP-100 until the time that SCP-101 becomes cooperative again. The largest of the two warehouses within SCP-100 has been converted into a basic research facility. All objects created by SCP-101, excluding SCP-102A and SCP-102B, may be used for research purposes. Testing on SCP-101 itself may only be conducted with written permission from the Acting Head Researcher. Description SCP-100 is an abandoned scrapyard, 80 kilometers from F***ing, South Carolina, known as Jamaican Joe's Junkyard Jubilee. The scrapyard covers roughly 5,000 square meters of fenced-off land, consisting of two warehouses, a storefront, and a small residential building, as well as neglected land and land used for storage. SCP-100 holds roughly 1,500 vehicles, both pressed and un-pressed, as well as roughly 1,400 kilograms of separate scrap, estimated to be worth $5,000 or 3,870 euros. SCP-100's anomalous effect manifests through SCP-101 and its constructs, including SCP-102A and SCP-102B. Autonomy is lost when SCP-101 or one of its objects cross the fenced perimeter of SCP-100, remaining in this state until reintroduction. SCP-101 is an autonomous, sapient, humanoid construct, consisting mostly of copper piping, uninsulated copper wiring, and aluminum cans. SCP-101 lacks the ability for written or verbal communication. However, it possesses the ability to communicate using rudimentary sign language. SCP-101 is largely uninterested in conversation outside of sales, and information gathered from it has been limited. SCP-101 appears to possess skill and craftsmanship, demonstrating the ability to operate tools such as arc welders, drills, and power saws, as well as heavy machinery such as car compressors and forklifts. SCP-101 possesses the ability to create autonomous constructs similar to itself, using material available within SCP-100. SCP-101 tends to create four specific animals, iguanas, crocodiles, turtles, and flamingos. However, SCP-101 has been known to craft other species, such as domestic pets. To maintain compliance, SCP-101 has been allowed to keep two objects, labeled SCP-102A and SCP-102B. SCP-102A and SCP-102B are constructs superficially resembling insects, assumed to be created by SCP-100, as they have occupied SCP-100 since the initial discovery of SCP-100. The names Ramon and Beatrice are welded into the backs of SCP-102A and SCP-102B, respectively. They appear to operate as both companions as well as guards for SCP-100, as they patrol the perimeter of SCP-100 except during intervals of interaction with SCP-101. SCP-101 appears to follow a ritualistic schedule, repeating the same actions daily. From 0800 to 1500 hours, SCP-101 enters the storefront of SCP-100, seating itself behind a counter and attempting to bargain with any humans within the storefront. Occasionally, SCP-101 will return to the yard prematurely for reasons unknown. From 1,500 to 1,600 hours, SCP-101 interacts with SCP-102A and SCP-102B, communicating using vague hand and arm gestures. Interaction tends to consist of grooming, repair, and activities resembling fetch and hide and seek. From 1,600 to 1,200 hours, SCP-101 performs various tasks, including taking stock of material within SCP-100, cleaning and maintaining tools and heavy machinery, and cleaning the interiors and exteriors of buildings present within SCP-100. From 2,200 hours to 0,100 hours, SCP-101 performs what is assumed to be leisurely acts, ranging from creating new constructs, interacting with SCP-102A and SCP-102B, and patrolling SCP-100. From 0,00 hours to 0,800, SCP-101 enters the residential building, where it remains seated at a desk for the duration of this time. In the event that a human enters the storefront of SCP-100 during the interval of time SCP-101 is seated behind the counter, SCP-101 will attempt to bargain with them, using a variety of gestures to convey meaning. Most attempts by SCP-101 are to sell scrap, figures of its own creation, or repair services. However, it has been known to purchase scrap. Despite SCP-101's inability to read, it possesses the ability to perform basic mathematics, as demonstrated by sales. Sales made by SCP-101 are typically met with some degree of unfairness. SCP-101 has been known to intentionally use faulty scales and contaminate scrap piles with cheaper metals, and has demonstrated knowledge of the area of effect within SCP-100, as SCP-101 has sold constructs repeatedly, despite the loss of autonomy when exiting SCP-100. Efforts to confront SCP-101 about this have been met with both distress and indifference, with referral to a sign posted on the wall reading, No refunds man, happening regardless of SCP-101's emotional response. SCP-101 was discovered on 1109-76, following reports of strange machines operating from within the scrap yard. These rumors were discredited as urban legends, and a Foundation agent was sent to SCP-100 to act as the landowner until containment was performed under the guise of property sale. The wooden privacy fence was built along the former perimeter of SCP-100, one-way windows were installed in the storefront, and a highway now running through the nearby town of... redirects the majority of civilian traffic. Addendum 100A Records show the property is owned by one Joseph DeVall, with the mailing address sharing the same name. Local utility companies report billing had stopped approximately three months before the discovery of SCP-100, which was found abandoned save for SCP-101, SCP-102A, SCP-102B, and several avian and canine figures, presumed to be made by SCP-101. The initial sweep of the buildings revealed the residential building to be mostly bare, with the only sign of former occupants being a note found taped to the door of the storefront. Incident 100A, on 060305, SCP-101 created a humanoid, autonomous construct, 10cm in height, the first time SCP-101 has done so. Significant effort was put into this construct compared to others, with greater detail applied to the construct, including facial features, and JJ welded into the back of the construct, in stainless steel making up the majority of the construct. SCP-101 placed the construct on the counter of the storefront for the duration of the scheduled interval, both using vague gestures to seemingly communicate with one another. Following the confiscation of this construct, SCP-101 remained seated within the residential building of SCP-100 for a total of 10 days. SCP-100A, the following is a copy of the note recovered upon discovery of SCP-100. Out to lunch, please see assistant, JJ. Item number, SCP-172, Object Class, Euclid, Special Containment Procedures. Any personnel wishing to access SCP-172 must receive written approval and undergo a one hour training session. All interaction with SCP-172 must be overseen by at least one Class IV operative, who may end the session at their discretion. Any and all records, drawings, or correspondence produced by SCP-172 are to be submitted immediately to Dr. P. for review. Reasonable requests made by SCP-172 are to be granted after approval by said doctor. SCP-172 is to be allowed out of its containment area with approval, as long as it is accompanied by an armed Class IV operative. Armed personnel are to be stationed at the door of SCP-172. Should SCP-172 attempt to escape, it is to first be asked to cease and desist, and then led back to its containment area. Containment areas to be kept stocked with paper, pencils, and any additional components requested by SCP-172. Tables, chairs, and any additional furnishings requested by SCP-172 are to be provided pending approval by Dr. P. upon entering its dormant state. SCP-172 should be placed in its transportation box until rewound. Description. SCP-172 appears to be a human being, 34 years of age, 185 cm or 6 foot 1 inches tall, black hair and moustache, 175.5 kg or 386 pounds, and of Russian descent. SCP-172's personality is very friendly and intelligent, if somewhat dull and repetitive. SCP-172 prefers dress from the 1860s and always wears a large ornate key on a long necklace. SCP-172 has never identified itself by any name and is not upset by being referred to by its designation number. Internally, SCP-172 is a staggeringly complex automaton, possessing over 2 million moving parts and 18 million components at last count. The parts appear to be made of glass, silk, wood, steel, brass, rubber, and several other substances. Similarity between this construction and that of SCP-2776 suggests a similar creator or creators. SCP-172 also has several modules that can be installed via a hatch in its chest. These appear to alter behavior, speech, movement, and several parameters based on position in the body cavity and module components. SCP-172 has 46 modules at current count, having built three of these while in Foundation custody. Currently, SCP-172 is loaded with the Engineer module. Modules have been identified by SCP-172 as caretaker, soldier, medic, mother, and king. Although this is by no means a comprehensive list, under no circumstances are modules to be replaced without O5-level authorization. SCP-172 is powered via a mainspring, which is wound with the key in SCP-172's possession after inserting it into a hole at the base of the neck. SCP-172 can operate for 8 hours on a single full wind-up. SCP-172 appears wholly human when in operation and is capable of all basic human functions. SCP-172 has no need to eat, breathe, or sleep, but will perform all these functions if allowed to do so. SCP-172 is extremely obedient and will follow any instructions given to it to the best of its ability. SCP-172 does not view its existence as strange and asserts that it is human, even when shown its internal components. SCP-172 is also extremely delicate and great care must be taken to preserve and maintain its function. SCP-172 has also shown a level of mechanical skill nothing short of miraculous. SCP-172 is capable of analyzing and copying any mechanical device it comes in contact with. This was first shown when it became apparent that lots of any kind cannot contain SCP-172. It has also made several copies or upgraded versions of SCP technology, all based on incredibly complex clockwork. Most notably, data expunged. Document No. 172-4R Notes on recovery of SCP-172 SCP-172 was recovered after the Great War in a chamber below a former vacation home of the Czar's, exposed due to stray bombing. The chamber and its contents were badly damaged, but SCP-172 was found intact in an iron crate along with many modules and its key. Item was removed by operatives and wound up inside testing facilities. SCP-172 appeared to wake up from a deep sleep and proceeded to greet everyone present in Russian. When Agent F*** shouted in surprise, SCP-172 pushed against its chest and repeated its greetings in English. SCP-172, when questioned, stated that its last memory was playing with a young boy. The boy left, and SCP-172 began to feel very tired, so it returned to the box. It has no memory of its creation, creator, or name. Item No. SCP-191 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures SCP-191 is currently housed in a 6m x 6m room at Site-17. To date, SCP-191 has not made any requests for furnishings or entertainment. Current furnishings include 1 wooden-framed futon with a 15cm 6-inch pad and standard cotton bedsheets and blankets. All sheets are to be sterilized each morning according to standard procedures. The futon pad itself will be replaced every 6 months, and the old pad discarded through incineration. One standard 220V type G power outlet with an emergency cutoff box, fuse, circuit breaker, and manual non-insulating guillotine located outside the cell. One standard hazardous waste disposal unit, liquid and solid waste. All drainage tubes shall lead directly to an incinerator unit. This SCP-191 is to be dressed in loose, sleeveless garments made of 100% long staple cotton. Fresh clothing will be provided once daily with used garments sterilized according to standard procedures. Bathing is to be done once every evening in a wash tub filled with a solution of water and baking soda. Feeding, in the form of a sterile saline solution supplemented with vitamins, minerals, antibiotics and a mild anesthetic shall be carried out twice a day via injection into a metallic tube located in the base of the neck. SCP-191 is capable of limited self-care, including draining waste and recharging internal batteries. A log shall be kept of power consumption and any unusual changes in power usage reported to supervising staff. Daily inspections for injury should be carried out after bathing. Should SCP-191 require medical care, refer to documents 191-alpha, special medical needs, and 191-alpha supplemental repair of non-biological components before administering care. At least two armed guards are to be present in the room any time that personnel have contact with SCP-191, although a translucent screen may be utilized for privacy purposes. Their anti-computer countermeasures are ineffective, as SCP-191's components have been hardened against electromagnetic pulse.  It is believed to have been a test subject of several experimental surgeries performed by the late Dr. 1. 80% of the left half of the face and skull have been removed, with the eye and ear replaced by a complex transceiver system that allows it to receive and transmit not only visual and auditory input, but a wider spectrum of electromagnetic radiation, ranging from low-frequency radio to high-energy gamma rays. The lower jaw, teeth, and larynx have been removed and replaced with data expunged. The esophagus has been rerouted to an artificial orifice at the back of the neck, feeding tube, and the trachea rerouted directly to an air filtration device. Due to these alterations, SCP-191 is incapable of speech, although it has been reported occasionally vocalizing distress through rapid respiration. 2. An input-output device has been placed into the right forearm, replacing the radius and ulna bones. The device contains interfaces for a variety of modern and obsolete formats, including USB, Ethernet, Firewire, and DIN-8 PIN, as well as seven other interfaces corresponding to no known formats. The device can be accessed by pulling back the skin over the right arm, like a shirt sleeve. 3. A 24-core processor array has been implanted in the brain, which translates input from all artificial components, essentially allowing SCP-191 to read and write computer data without the use of an external interface. Internal communication is carried out through fiber optic cables, implanted through the glale cells and the entire nervous system. Damage to the brain stem and cerebellum due to the implantation procedure has severely damaged SCP-191's motor skills. 4. The right hand and right foreleg have been replaced with artificial components, consisting primarily of steel, carbon fiber, and an unknown polymer-like substance. The exposed areas of tissue are susceptible to injury and infection. Due to damage to the spinal thalamic tract, SCP-191 has reduced pain and temperature sensitivity in its limbs. Reconstructive surgery by Dr. R. R. was able to provide some relief, but regular doses of antibiotics and anal G6 are still required. 5. The lungs, heart, and major blood vessels have been replaced with mechanical analogues. It has been determined that this system would allow SCP-191's bodily systems to be restarted after death. 6. The digestive system has been completely reconfigured, to the point where regular food intake is both unnecessary and dangerous. Rest is now disposed of via a drainage system, located in the lower back, and consists of a thick, dark gray viscous slime. 7. The reproductive organs, uterus, ovaries, etc. have been removed and replaced with data expunged. According to R. R. R.'s notes, this was done to, provide extra space by removing non-vital components. Hormone therapy has been proposed to counteract the long-term effects of the missing glands. This proposal is under review, pending analysis of possible complications. 8. At least 15 other alterations of unknown purpose. Given this fact, and the haphazard integration of the useful components, it is believed that they were performed merely to test the viability of such procedures on other subjects. These are underway as to whether Dr. R. R. R. was planning to data expunged. At present, any theories as to the purpose behind these alterations are speculative at best. As said, Dr. R. R. died during the raid in which SCP-191 was recovered. See notes below, and the only surviving records of his research are a single half-burned spiral-bound notebook, consisting mostly of cryptic notes, regarding a higher purpose. SCP-191 was recovered by Foundation agents during a brief collaborative effort with a global occult coalition, in which a raid was conducted on the laboratory of Dr. R. R. R. a suspected member of R. R. R. SCP-191 was the only test subject recovered from the laboratory. All other tests' subjects expired during the raid, either disposed of by said doctor, or eliminated as hostiles by the task force. Preliminary assessment concluded that full reconstruction was impossible, that the components introduced were too technologically advanced, to risk becoming widely known, and that it could be a source of valuable data, if kept alive. Subject was classified SCP-191 and was moved to site its disappearance, and those of the other test subjects was later blamed on a local serial killer who was arranged to be killed in prison while awaiting trial. Addendum 191-01 Testing of SCP-191's abilities has commenced. Experiment log 191 Note, this is a test log for exploring the capabilities of SCP-191. Please remember that SCP-191 is a research tool, not an entertainment center. Any test involving games or other recreational technology should be conducted in a professional manner, and not for amusement. Doctor Subject Paint A ubiquitous simple drawing program Instructions Interface with a computer via a USB port, and draw specified pictures using paint. Results SCP-191 was instantly able to emulate the functions of a mouse and keyboard. When showed any photograph, 191 was able to reproduce it within seconds using only the pencil tool, creating copies indistinguishable from the original. After the test was recorded, it was noticed that SCP-191 had continued drawing in additional paint files. SCP-191 appeared surprised and opened a text file on screen, claiming that it had not realized it was still drawing. The following drawings were discovered, three people wearing what appeared to be GOC uniforms, standing in a burning office, pointing guns at a man across the room. The man is committing suicide via gunshot wound to the head, his face obscured by blood. An adult and child trick or treating. The child is a girl wearing makeup, similar to that worn by Boris Karloff in Frankenstein. SCP-191 was once again asked if it was really feeling well, and once again replied, via text file, that it was fine and that the expunged didn't mean anything. Subject, undisclosed video game. Instructions, attempt to emulate the functions of a Wiimote and play a video game. Result, test began poorly as SCP-191's impaired motor skills caused it to snap the disk in two before it to place it in the console. SCP-191 became distressed, it then stared at the disk, and the red light from its eye changed to green for a moment. When Dr. F*** returned with a fresh disk, less than two minutes had passed, the game was already running on the machine. Said Dr. inquired as to how that happened, and a message appeared on the screen saying, I looked at the ones in the zeros, and I loaded those in. I'm sorry, I know I'm not supposed to do it this way, but I didn't want you to waste a disk. Please don't be angry. SCP-191 still seemed fearful of Reprimand, even after being reassured that it was doing excellently. SCP-191 made a perfect run-through of the game, despite the fact that it did not make any physical movements consistent with the Wii controls. Subject, a well-known video effects program. A 40-second video file from a security camera located in the employee cafeteria. Instructions. Perform a series of video enhancement techniques used by forensic detectives on the popular television drama, techniques that cannot actually be done in reality. Zoom and enhance. SCP-191 was instructed to zoom in on the window over the parking lot and render the license plates on the cars, which were illegible from this distance. The actual license plates had been photographed for reference. Uncrop. SCP-191 was asked to shrink the video by 100 pixels on every side, and fill in the blank space with what it believed the rest of the cafeteria looked like. Again, data that was not actually available in the video. Rotate camera. SCP-191 was informed of the exact location and angle of the other security camera in the cafeteria, and asked to render the scene as viewed from that angle, filling in the parts that the camera did not see. The actual footage from the second camera was requisitioned and held for reference. Result. SCP-191 could not understand the instructions at first. Dr. R. had to provide a lengthy explanation, and then stand behind SCP-191 and give it instructions one step at a time. It was several minutes before the test could even begin. However, once SCP-191 actually got started, the videos and frames were finished in less than seven minutes, of which at least three were spent watching the rendering progress bar. Zoom and Enhanced Test. SCP-191 successfully rendered close-ups of the license plates, complete with photorealistic scratches and dents. However, the plates were found not to match the license plates on the vehicles. SCP-191 tight, the data wasn't there, so I had to guess. Uncrop Test. SCP-191 expanded the video canvas, and filled in what was in the blank space, rendering the extra image seamlessly. It did not match the actual cafeteria, but once again, the data was not in the video file, and SCP-191 had been forced to guess. Rotate Camera Test. The generated video matched the angle of the second camera perfectly, and almost everything visible from the angle of camera one matched the scene in camera two very closely. As before, places not visible were very different. One table only visible in camera two that had been seating was now, in the generated video, seating the attending doctor and agent supervising SCP-191, eating lunch and talking. Although there were many visual differences between the original videos and SCP-191's copies, many on-site personnel were unable to determine which ones were the forgeries. End Log. Psychological Analysis by Dr. Glass. SCP-191 has responded fairly well to containment. It is completely docile and cooperative, and when not being interacted with, it spends most of its time sitting still, or curled up in a fetal position. This may be a sign of distress, but it is more likely for physical comfort, as normal body movements and postures are difficult. Mental Acuity is questionable. Although capable of rapid data analysis and communications when physically linked to a computer system, it seems unable to follow conversations with human beings, unless the conversant speaks slowly and uses simple words. Complex tasks are also impossible, unless it is guided at every step. Its mood seems consistent, though somewhat inscrutable. It continually affects melancholy, will not make eye contact unless asked to, and any attempts to induce a cheerful or humorous mood have proven fruitless. However, it shows no signs of ongoing mental distress, and claims, through computer interface, that it is feeling well. To date, SCP-191 has not requested access to, or information about, any acquaintance it had before its abduction.


touch and taste often get confused with different proprioceptive senses or I mean proprioceptive stimming because we might think of someone who chews on things constantly and think taste but or think touch but it really often is proprioception because it has to do with applying pressure to the body it is a little feeling the muscles contract and mm-hmm so using jewelry or just chewing on pens that is a proprioceptive stem another proprioceptive stem is to use weighted blankets and different things like that you might also have someone who rolls things a lot across the floor or across the table that's tapping into that sense as well


Let's talk about net neutrality. You all know what net neutrality is and you know how important it is and you know how we We fought it, you know, you know, write your senator blah blah blah But you also realize that there's these big companies that Control a lot of the internet and they want more control and they want to charge you and nickel-deny me for everything and and Do a whole bunch of nasty stuff and they want to get rid of net neutrality for it And I think that's you know, most people out there who know what net neutrality is I don't think there's anybody who actually thinks it's a good thing except for these companies that would benefit from it But we also know that these big companies have a lot of money and even though we've it's kind of sort of one a couple times in The past they're going to keep coming back just as they are now I recently was watching a video on the node channel. He does videos called cyber dump and He brought a good point. He interesting point. He said that he thinks that if we were to lose net neutrality There's enough smart people out there that would come up with a new internet to where we would basically we'd get rid of these big companies At least that's that's kind of a theory he was having which is interesting thought You know that if we if net neutrality was lost these companies started being Worse than they already are that we would come up with some sort of wireless communication some sort of mesh thing Which which probably could work in the city. I kind of work live out in a rural area be kind of hard for that but Hey, like he said may it will push people to come up bear solutions the problem I see with that and The reason we need net neutrality because I'm all for you know an open market and for these companies to be able to compete The problem is the laws have already stopped competition for these companies. So My point is there have been people who have tried to start ISPs and these big companies come and slap them with lawsuits Which are ridiculous But basically bankrupt these small ISPs out of business before they even have a chance to get off the floor So there is no competition. There is not going to be any competition and these big companies Comcast is they're going to to start doing these horrible things and you don't have another option and Even with the idea that there's smart people out there that are going to come up with a new way to communicate Which is completely possible. I'm not saying that that's not possible But I would also see Comcast coming in and trying to legally stop that as they have in the past saying that it's Unfair practices that they're going to lose money so although I Agree that Necessity is could push us to create something new I also see big companies like Comcast coming in and trying to and probably succeeding at making that illegal and and Taking down the people who are doing that even though it would be a great thing. Anyway, so I just You know, I wasn't gonna do a video on that neutrality because you all know about it You all know what to do, you know that what the fight's about But I thought that was an interesting concept and I think it's a great idea. I just think that The problem is With a lot of things like an open I think the open market if it was truly an open market would be a great thing But then we have problems with with everything we have things like patents which prevent, you know fair, you know Creation out there because people are suing people left and right because they have better ideas and them that so into their idea They go, oh, well, oh, you're doing something that I'm doing but you're doing it better I'm going to sue you and that's exact opposite of what a free market is supposed to be everyone should have a fair opportunity and unfortunately because of laws like patents we lose that and and Comcast has already shown that and other big ISPs by putting out little ISPs before they have a chance to get off floor because sorry ISP is a is is expensive to start off and you just can't Afford these lawsuits these big companies come against you which are complete BS to begin with Anyway, that's my thought with the with the whole Was it the 14th or the 16th whatever it's coming up? Just thought I'd say something since everyone seems to be talking about it at least everyone who cares Thanks for watching. Have a great day


Good evening. I'm Admiral Scott Swift, the commander of U.S. Pacific Fleet. I've got a brief statement to make, and I'll take your questions following that statement. As most of you know, the guided missile destroyer USS John McCain was involved in a collision with the merchant vessel Allnick MC while underway east of the Straits of Malacca yesterday at 5.24 a.m. local time Monday, August 21st. McCain was transcending to a routine port visit in Singapore when the collision occurred. Right now we are still searching for our 10 missing sailors. That remains our focus. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the families of those sailors and the families of our sailors who were injured. Ships and aircraft from the war in Malaysia Navy and Republic of Singapore Navy joined search efforts yesterday and continue to provide assistance along with aircraft from the USS America. The U.S. Navy and Marine Corps divers joined a search today assessing sealed compartments in damaged parts of the ship. The divers were able to locate some remains in those sealed compartments during their search today. Additionally, the Malaysian Navy has reported that they have located potential remains. They are working to confirm and identify those remains. As more information comes in, we will make it available. While the search and rescue efforts continue, I sincerely thank our Singapore partners, our Malaysia partners, and everyone who has responded with urgency, compassion, and tireless commitment. Four of the five sailors injured were medically evacuated by a Singapore Navy helicopter to a hospital in Singapore for non-life-threatening injuries. The fifth injured sailor was transferred after John S. McCain arrived here at Port. I visited with those sailors earlier today and they are doing well. John S. McCain and America arrived in Changi Naval Base yesterday afternoon. While both ships are in Singapore, America is providing messing and birthing services to John S. McCain crew members and supporting damage control efforts on board which are focused on dewatering the ship and restoring auxiliary systems. Our priority here in Singapore is taking care of the crew and their families, ensuring they have all the resources they need and are updated on the status of their ship and their shipmates. I visited with the crew today. They are tough and they are resilient. It is clear that their damage control efforts saved their ship and saved lives. I ask all of you to keep the affected sailors and their families in your thoughts and prayers and respect their privacy. Families who are seeking information can call our crisis hotline and we are continuing to provide updated information as soon as we get it via social media accounts and the seventh fleet website. From my visit in John S. McCain today, I can tell you that she has sustained significant damage to her port side app. The flooding was halted but the extent of the damage is still being determined. We will conduct a thorough and full investigation into this collision, what occurred, what happened and how it happened. As you know, this collision happened within two months of one another. The collision involving the U.S. Fitzgerald which caused the death of seven sailors and earlier this year there were two other incidents involving surface ships in the western Pacific. One tragedy like this is one too many and while each of these four events is unique, they cannot be used, they cannot be viewed in isolation. I welcome the broad comprehensive review announced by our chief of naval operations. I talk this morning with Admiral Davidson on the phone and look forward to working with him as the senior surface warfare officer in the Navy to find out whether this is there is a common cause at the root of these events and if so, how we solve that. We will implement the operational pause that she announced across all fleets and that will include all units in the Pacific and will be completed by August 28th. In addition, I have directed a second phase that will be focused on all surface ships deployed in the Pacific including those forward deployed naval forces in Yacowska and Sasebo. This second phase will be a deliberate reset for our ships focused on a number of areas such as navigation, ship's mechanical systems and bridge resource management. It will involve training and assessment by a team of experts with each ship and their watch standards and it will be phased in order to cover ships import and on station at sea. We will take what we learn through each phase and apply it as we progress. Tomorrow I'll be traveling to Yacowska for discussions with seven fleet leadership and engage with the families of the U.S. John S. McCain there. Make no mistake, our sailors and these ships are doing critical work at sea and for more than 70 years the U.S. Navy has helped guarantee the security and stability of the western Pacific. All nations in this region and beyond have benefited from the resulting prosperity that their service has enabled. This work by our sailors is difficult but it is incredibly important and enduring. We owe it to sailors that manned seven fleet and their families to answer the questions that flow from the uncertainty of what happened, how could it happen and what can be done to prevent such occurrences in the future. We owe it to each and every one of them to pursue answers to these questions and others that may be on their mind. We are absolutely committed to doing just that. Thank you and with that I look forward to answering your questions. I don't want to comment on any specifics. The investigation is in its very earliest stages. I've heard of these reports of potential cyber attacks or cyber interference. We've seen no indications of that as of yet but I think the chief of naval operations was very clear that we are not taking any consideration off the table and every scenario will be reviewed and investigated in detail. I'm sorry. Will there be a reform in the command chain? Again it's very early to make a determination of any actions what might be taken. Our focus is on the 10 sailors that are missing on their families and of the crew of the USS John McCain. I think well to your last question I don't think that's the case at all. I was on McCain this morning looking at the eyes of those sailors even after their heroic efforts yesterday. I didn't see exhaustion. I didn't see a crew that was taking a knee so to speak. They are manning the USS John S. McCain. They are on their game. They own that ship. Damage control efforts continue so that view is not a view that I see reflected to me by the 140,000 sailors that manned the Pacific Fleet every day. As far as the question of negligence go, that will be a determination of the investigation and along with the responsibility and authority comes accountability and I think the record of the United States Navy is clear on that. We have a report from the Malaysians. We're grateful for for the support that we continue to get from really across the region. We have a report that they have found a body. We're in the process of affecting the transfer of that body so we can start the identification process and determine whether it's one of the missing sailors or not. There is one body that has been reported by the Malaysian Navy has been found. We have discovered other bodies during the diving on McCain today, but it's premature to say how many and what the status of recovery of those bodies is. So we're always hopeful that their survivors the SAR effort continues. I think the fruits of that effort are the fact that the Malaysians have reported recovering a body. So until we have exhausted any potential of recovering survivors or bodies, the search and rescue efforts will continue.


July is going to be hotter than ever because you get up to $50 off any smartphone at Appalachian Wireless to your agreement required. Better service, bigger savings, that's today's Appalachian Wireless, an East Kentucky network company. A pop-up Pride March was held in Prestonsburg this evening. Dozens gathered together displaying their pride flags, signs and colors all in an effort to peacefully carry the message and values of the LGBT community. It is all about community. We're all coming together as one and we welcome anyone in the community regardless of their LGBT connections. If they want to come they can. This is about love and respect and just showing support for the community and everyone has been nothing but smiles today. I want to show that love is love and it's equality, that no one is different and everyone should be able to be with the person they want. It's important to let people know that we are people just like them and we may be a little bit different but we're still people. Some of the March participants traveled many miles to come show their support. Support they did not have themselves growing up. We're from Moorhead and we were one of the couples that were involved with the episode with Kim Davis. So we did our first Pride Festival last year and we're getting ready to do our second Pride Festival on October 7th. I grew up in Eastern Kentucky. I grew up in Letcher County which is really close to Prestonsburg. I know it's really important to have that support. I didn't have that when I was growing up. I think that younger people now really need to have that support. Event organizers would like to thank the City of Prestonsburg and everyone who helped make the March such a success.
