The Appalachian Advantage Plan is the simpler, better way to get the phone you actually want instead of paying hundreds of dollars up front.  It's called the Appalachian Advantage available at Appalachian Wireless. Fear the Berg is returning to Mountain Arts Center for a five day Halloween movie marathon October 27th through the 31st. The movie marathon will feature family friendly movies, horror and classic Halloween movies. It's just going to be a series of movie marathons going on completely free to the public made up of 12 of some of the best and most classic scary movies that we know. And I'm so excited on Thursday. It's really unique experience. So they're kicking off with Nosferatu. And actually they're going to have Mystery Meet Blues Band is going to be accompanying as doing the the orchestra score along with it. So you'll have that movie experience but also live music to go along with it. Fear the Berg is completely free to attend and concessions will be available for purchase since the Mountain Arts Center has been able to start playing movies. They really wanted to look at how they could expand that experience to not just be single movies at a time, but especially this holiday season when there's nothing better than a good movie marathon, how they can really encapsulate that. And so they came up with Fear the Berg and this year it works out awesome that they've been able to expand it into five days. And pretty cool that they're able to offer that completely free every single movie. So you can get one movie or 12 movies at no cost and enjoy that with your family and friends. For a full list of movies and showtimes go to Mountain Arts Center on Facebook. For Mountain Top News, I'm Brianna Robinson.


So we should be clear of the ability to disconnect it. See, it's 510. OK, it looks open. I got it released. It's 25 seconds, so that's OK. And there's not much to see on the keel, but I'll tell you what, I'll put the keel camera up there. Sorry. OK, now it's awful hard to tell when the thing's level. Yeah. Yeah, it's hard to tell sometimes, too, because I think the grapple fixtures aren't level, even when the telescope's level. Yeah, yeah. I know, that may be good enough. Yeah, it looks like it's rotated your way a little bit. X is 5. I'm sorry, X is 10 on 9. I'm going to take it half to a little bit. I wonder, I can't. That's 1010. Yeah, oh yeah. No, I never would have got that lined up. Or I hope I never would have got that lined up. OK, Z is 574. X is 1010, Y is minus 1. And it does look to me like I'm your way a little bit. So let's go this way, like it is rolling. Yeah, boy, it's doing it a lot today, too. Already, I kicked it back up a little bit. When it rolls, because the wrist roll joint won't move, all it wants to do is going to bring it towards the arm. So that's probably not going to be a very good thing to do. I can try to go in Y. Can you take it out a little bit? Yeah, I'm sure I can do that. But it looks like we've got a real failed joint. What I'd like to do now is try to take the wrist Y on joint. So the only difference between 4 and 2 is the XI. Didn't mean to scare you. It won't save a lot of fire coming out. Well, let's see if we can straighten it out, maybe. We were trying to get back to the low hover position, which is vertical, even with the top of the payload bay.


t's a reality. They have multiple half move spells They have to give penalties to we'll see I don't want I don't want to make this the future prediction show Right. Sure. What I'll say is we're there's a lot of questions to start where we are right now But I'll agree with you. I think where we are is Especially in a week and three days from now or whatever it happens to be whatever the ghb comes out I think a lot of this will be redressed that we're talking about, you know, you mentioned like croak croaks needs to fix You just jack his points way up like way up way up Okay, he is way undercosted. He is original skaven levels of undercosted. Okay, so you think add another 120 points to him Oh, that's like my floor of what you add to him. Yes, absolutely Um and and look skaven got fixed by adding points for the most part like the only thing we really had to change on the scroll was to was to To break rap trap some I'd still obviously have broken more or just erased but Uh, but for the most part it was fixed by points zeech can largely be fixed by points Saravan can largely be fixed by points like this stuff is this is simple tech To fix and then those spell doms by the way don't get to rule the world if they're actually really expensive Then things are costed out accordingly If you have to pay too much and make your army too fragile to have magic dominance Then you do get overrun by people who have a whole bunch of bodies like beast of chaos are going to run slip shot over you Because they're going to put 200 wounds on the table and just be like what you're going to do When the horde comes for you, buddy When the angle will come for you. Yeah, yeah, exactly I mean like it's just going to be swarming best of course and you're going to be like you're and you're a Little tiny caster that over cost you is going to get trampled under a sea of gore flesh right So like there's and and that's I think a good world to live in like that's how we Want the game to be where it's kind of this soft counter back and forth Well, yeah, you can go into this strat and you pay accordingly and you have some risks This kind of soft balance of rock paper scissors. We want our spell doms. We want to have our shooting doms We want to have our combat doms. We want to have all our different Armies with their own strengths and weaknesses, but if we've got Spell doms and we've got combat doms or if or even if we've got spell and music doms, that's where the problem movement that's when the problem happens because Movement can shut down everything else that happens Yeah, when you have sort of one tactic that clearly can win out over everything else but again, I the reason I'm positive is so many of the Challenges I see right now floating around are mainly points based and that's the easiest thing to fix Yeah, and you wait till we get our gargants that come out anyways And we've just got like four models on the table Guess what they're immune to magic because of some battle trait or something like that And we just throw teclis like ragdoll him like the Hulk to Loki in in Avengers. So it'll all be sweet puny god That's right when we're picking up objectives and walking away with them And uh, and just you know leaving combat, which I assume is going to be one of the rules that I that is if like I would assume one of the rules for giants, especially the big giants should be Uh, if I'm in combat with something that doesn't have the monster keyword.  Let me just say but totally different conversation I see nothing of positivity in the future. Uh, I am excited for what's coming Whether it be the rest of the lumeneth, which I think ultimately is this is a good book We'll talk about that next week like I said And with with some spots that need to be addressed But overall a good book whether it's the incredible sons of behemoth getting a whole giant army Literally the culmination of everything I wanted five years ago. One of the first things we saw in one of the earliest books Was not worse. It was a battalion of realm gate wars. Correct was the sons of behemoth battalion where we got this idea of an all giant army it was sort of the concept that was there and This is what I have had the dream of for the entirety of aos and I can think of no better way To celebrate five years of aos than to know that truly the army that I've always wanted always forever This has been my dream is finally coming to pass. It's incredible And I think we've got so many more amazing armies to come which are just going to blow our minds And then we still have the um, the you know, every time a book like slays to darkness comes out It adds so many more options to blades of corn to zench to beasts of chaos, you know, like so so sometimes The release of one army just refreshes five different books And I've never been spoiled for choice like as much as what I am now And I don't even need to buy new armies I've got three here that are interchangeable and I can just go back and and add bits and it becomes a completely different army so I think Like despite some of our frustrations sometimes Um, it's in a really great place and it's really great. Like it's it's it's all coming up millhouse Totally agree. All right. Well gentlemen, that's five years of aos. There we go. So with that Let's uh, let's call it a night. Shall we and hope for five more years of create aos? Uh, we'll have doom back before 10 years from now or four or five years from now before the 10-year anniversary show Of course, but doom buddy. Thank you as always man. Been a great time All right, thanks for having me and I'll see you in five more years For all of you out there watching, thank you so much everybody Uh, we really do appreciate it Uh, we hope you're with us for the next five years to come But one thing you can do right now to make sure that more people find us for the next five years Is you can move your mouse over just like that much on the screen and click that little like button See how easy it is hitting like is one of the nicest things you can do It helps other people find the channel and cost you nothing other than one second of your time So please hit like uh with that I'll say thank you very much everybody. We really appreciate it and as always We'll see you next wednesday


The first two tight ends we're gonna give you out aren't even playing this week We're looking for the long term We're looking for the playoffs and we start with Gerald Everett who on Monday night had a monster game for the Rams two touchdowns Including the game winner with Cooper cup out for the season is Gerald ever the guy that's going to step up for Los Angeles Well, I'm not sure if he's the guy over Tyler Higby But you have to take that chance just based on what we just saw on Monday night against the Chiefs the game without Cooper Cup he scored two touchdowns Greg you mentioned we're looking for a tight end that could give us one touchdown. Well, how about two touchdowns? That's exactly what Gerald Everett did He scored three touchdowns over his last two games if you look at on the season He has eight red zone targets with three of those coming in the past two games On fact about Gerald Everett this comes a little bit more so from the analytical department He has the highest average separation from opposing defenses among all tight ends of season So he's getting open and not only that he plays on a team that also includes Brandon cooks and Robert Woods and Todd Gurley So that's also going to help with his separation. I wouldn't be surprised if just a lot of the time Gerald Everett catches the ball There's nobody around him at all. That's because opposing defenses are worried about trying to stop those other weapons So it might be frustrating one week is Gerald Everett one week is Tyler Higby But any time we could get the starting tight end in a Rams offense, which is averaging over 35 points per game I think we have to look their way especially with the fact now that Cooper Cup is done for the season and Gerald Everett's trending in the right direction So we spoke about Gerald Everett. I have a feeling we'll talk a little bit about Tyler Higby as well Gerald Everett scored a couple of touchdowns and a lot of the Rams beat reporters love what he provides on the field And he's a red zone guy. So if you're desperate at tight end, you're looking for just that touchdown Monday night was any indication Gerald Everett could be that guy for you in the playoffs


Standard of California, on behalf of independent Chevron gas stations and standard stations throughout the west, invites you to let George do it. The problem of Joe Martin, another adventure of George Valentine. Personal notice, dangerous livestock and trade. If life for you is like trying to walk a tightrope in a high wind, you got a job for me, George Valentine. Write full details. Dear Mr. Valentine Esquire, who is Joe Martin? Most people in the United States of America, I find to be friendly, particularly if they say you have money. But Joe Martin, I find, but he is not at all friendly. In my native South America, I am an important man. I have three telephones on my desk. I am not accustomed when a man refuses to answer long distance, when the politeness of my letters come back unanswered. What is the matter with this Joe Martin? All I wish for him is his hand, so that I may fill it with money. Please see me to offer a suggestion, respectfully and cordially, Bolivar Estoso. Tell me, where could it happen in the United States? A South American eating a Spanish Mexican dish in an Italian restaurant to North American music? Yeah, sure, it's a small world, Mr. Estoso, but we don't have to just keep running around in circles, do we? Who is Joe Martin? Joe Martin. Joe Martin came to my country to the Andes. He was what you would call a full-hardy one. He wished to charter a plane to fly alone over the mountains, just to see if he could. Oh, did he succeed? Yes and no, or rather, no, and yes. His plane disappeared. There was a search, of course, but no choice of him. Hope was given up. And while I was sent to the United States, that he was dead. Only then he came back from the Andes, eh? Two months later, to the coast. He was a rag of bones, a hank of hair. Or is that a woman? If you don't mind, what happened to Joe Martin? Well, it was hard to tell exactly. There had been a crash, of course, and a fire. He was burned. A physical skeleton, a nervous wreck. But he was given the best of treatment and sent back as soon as possible to his home. To his wife. And now you're trying to contact him to give him some money? Why? International relations, she's my friend. Mr. Valentine, I am representing many companies on this trip. One of them is the company which rented to Joe Martin the airplane. There was a government investigation, the company was at fault. You mean something had been wrong with the plane? Or improper servicing, that is all. And it's a thing which would not happen again. But naturally the company wishes to make a restitution. You mean it's afraid it'll be sued and wants to make a settlement first? You don't know. We want to make payment. We want to maintain our reputation. But Joe Martin... Well, maybe the reason he doesn't answer your letters is because he doesn't want the money. Maybe he's wealthy or something. What if he is? I have contacted his bank, wealthy, yes, but money troubles too late, like everyone else. And there is no one so well off he will refuse $10,000. Yeah, all right, you are. No, I guess you've got the wrong address.  There has been plenty of time to recover his health. And I know where is this Joe Martin, a place in the country, a house on the coast. You see, there was once on the telephone, I was able to reach the home. It was a bad connection. And after a long minutes of waiting, all I could hear was crying. A man crying. Well, Boxy, it looks like we're in for a little trip. Joe Martin, huh? The man who wanted to conquer the Andes. Well, let's see now, Martin Place is right next to mine, but we like lots of elbow room around here. Take the second turn down the road, about five miles. Okay, thanks. Anybody home there now, do you think? Guess so, all three of them. They never seem to go out. Three of them? Well, even the wife and that fellow lives there came back with Martin. You mean back from South America? Guess so, I don't know. Well, look, I'm not really crying. Well, maybe I am. But do you know much about Joe Martin? Do you see him often? No, but my little boy saw him the other day. They have some late cherries, royal hands, I think, got back at their gardens. Boys like cherries, you know. But sometimes they get caught up. Well, Joe Martin didn't say anything. Just threw a rock at the little boy. You'd better ask somebody else about Joe Martin. You want to see my husband, Mr. Valentine. What about? Well, it's about his airplane wreck in South America, Mrs. Martin. Just a minute. There. Funny life out here, isn't it? When the fog comes in, there's nothing to do but sit in front of the fireplace and play phonograph records and read books. Joe's out right now. Out? You mean he's gone to town? No, no, he just walks. He likes to walk. At least that's where he is, walking. Lord knows there's plenty of places to walk around here. No, I'm sure he's not in the house. I'll be back. Senor Astosa said he'd written to your husband a couple of times. My husband never looks at Mayo. And I don't know anything about business. Oh, I do remember the letters. Yes, of course. Lawrence Kegley's the one you should see.  Oh, no, no. That's somebody else. Lawrence handles the money. He's in town, but he'll be out this evening.  Yes, well, Mrs. Martin, we'd like very much to... Lord, I'm not being much of a hostess, am I? I'm sure you're hungry or thirsty. Oh, don't worry about us, Mrs. Martin. We just came out to see... Oh, it's just a car. Yeah. Yeah, maybe that's Lawrence Kegley now, huh? Perhaps. I'll get it. It's you. Hello.  Did you see Joe? Joe? Why, no. Should I? I thought you might have. Driving in, he's out there somewhere. Walking. Oh, running loose, communing with the great... Rick, please! This is Rick Winders, Miss Brooks, Mr. Valentine. How do you do? Well, come to admire the fog, huh? Creeps in on little cat feet.  I, um... I don't know cats that well. I do. Mr. Winders, I guess you came back from South America with Mr. Martin, didn't you? What's this? She's just making conversation because you called me a cat.  Well, I'll clear it up for you, Miss Brooks. The person who lives here, the house guest, is Mr. Douglas Dewar. But he didn't come from South America. I'm telling it! Mr. Dewar's from the city. He's... he's just a friend of my husband. How will you tell it? Yes, and Rick is just... Well, anyway. There are no adjectives sufficient. How about a drink, anybody? Or some music, maybe? Skip it, Buster. Now, don't resent me, Mr. Valentine. I'm a nice guy. That's a nice tune. It certainly dates me, though, doesn't it? I guess so. Stop it! Stop it! Stop it! Turn that thing off! Estelle, what's the matter? What are you doing here? I was here earlier. Why shouldn't I come back? If you don't feel like talking, I can always chat with Joe. Yes, you can. Can't you? But I'm sure we're shocking your guests.  Would you like us to leave, Mrs. Martin? I don't know. Yes, yes, please. Oh, there's Kegley. Got a new car, hasn't he? No! No, it's the same old one. That's Kegley, huh? Okay, Mrs. Martin. Suppose Miss Brooks and I step outside and meet him. And if your husband still hasn't shown up... You wouldn't want to see Joe anyway. Why not? Well, I don't know what your business is, but Joe Martin would be sure to think it was something else and start yelling at you like a banshee. No, Mr. Valentine. You don't want to see Joe Martin. Now look, Mr. Kegley, it's simple. Mr. Estoso represents a South American company which wants to pay Joe... Oh, I know, I know. And I'm sorry we didn't get the letters answered, but it's only been a week or so. Of course we want the 10,000. Naturally. Atel Estoso, I said so. Oh, that's fine, but when can Mr. Martin come to town? There are some papers for both of them to sign, you know. What? Impossible. Impossible. I don't know how it could be arranged. No, no. I'll write to Estoso. We'll forget the whole thing for the time being. Why? Why can't Joe Martin come to town now? Oh, how should I know? How should I be expected to make any sense? Joe Martin won't even talk to me anymore. Ask Douglas Doerr. Ask Douglas... Hey, what kind of a run around is this? His wife says, see you and you say, see somebody else. What are you talking about? George! Yeah, come on. Douglas Doerr. I found him lying there. Lying there. Lying there. I was coming out the back way to ask if you wouldn't have some supper before you went back to town. He's dead. Yeah. Yeah, he's dead, all right. Heads been bashed in with a stick or maybe a rock. Estelle, Estelle, I looked all over for Joe. I can't find him. He hasn't come back to the house. What? Isn't Joe in his room? No, Lawrence, I... I haven't seen either one of them for more than an hour. And I guess Douglas Doerr has been dead for almost that long. Joe is out somewhere? Why wasn't there a lock on that room? He should have been locked up. But with Douglas Doerr... Hey, hold it, hold it, both of you. Yeah. Yeah, I think I'm beginning to catch on. Just who was Douglas Doerr? He's the doctor sent him out from the city. It was only a precaution. He was a male nurse. My husband's keeper.

A man so careless of his own life he would fly over the Andes by himself just for the fun of it. A man who would throw rocks at a boy stealing cherries. A man who is trustful of no one. A man so alone in his own mind that he required a keeper. But now the keeper is dead. Well, if your name is George Valentine, you just got into this because of a small matter of South America business. But now that you're here, you seem to find yourself the only center pole in a badly sagging tent. Because, as everybody knows, outside somewhere, outside in the fog, still out there is Joe Martin. A creature like that on the loose. He should have been locked up. We should never have...  I got your husband's doctor on the telephone, Mr. Martin. Thank you. I call the sheriff too, Mr. Kegley. Sheriff? Yes, I had to. It'll take him at least 20 minutes to drive out here. Joe Martin... He must have found out who Douglas Dua really was. What? Douglas always pretended he was just here as a friend. A physical instructor to help Bill Joe up again after his experience in South America. But Joe must have found out, don't you see? Found out he was really a nurse, a guard. Someone Joe would think of as against him. That's why he lashed out, killed him. That's how these things work. No, Mr. Kegley, stop chattering, will you? Mr. Valentine. Joe thinks I'm against him. Oh, why? You were bad business advising. Well, there were reversals even before his disappearance in South America. We did think he was dead, Mr. Valentine. Certain adjustments were made, naturally. Reinvestments and... Well, it's always been difficult to convince Joe he's not any wealthier than he really is. Oh, it's not your fault, Lawrence. It's not. Mrs. Martin, why wasn't your husband put in a sanitarium? Oh, but he's never been that sick. I'd never have dreamed that he... Well, he was always unstable, I suppose. And after that horrible experience in the Andes, he was a wreck, of course. Complete collapse. But thought it was mostly a matter of rest and care at home, building up a strain. Look, Mrs. Martin, if you know... Oh, Joe's been perfectly rational. I don't know if it's conceivable they had a fight or something. Oh, Mr. Valentine, I still can't believe my husband would be violent. Would want to kill? What did Douglas do, I think, about him? I say my imagine. He did send a wire to the doctor this evening, but I don't know what he said. Just heard him phone into Western Union, and then I heard the doors close. That was when both of them left the house, I guess. And that's exactly what I'm going to do right now. Leave. It's only a few minutes since you called. I'm going to drive in and get that sheriff myself.  Oh, then, Mr. Valentine... Mrs. Martin, I wonder if you'd excuse me, too. Yeah, I just thought of something. Look, Western Union, all I want is the text of the wire to the doctor, not the charges. Yes, I know the sheriff's office told you it was okay. I just want the... Well, okay, hurry it up, will you? Yeah, call me back. George... George, well... Hey, Booksy. George, I saw him. I did. I saw Joe Martin. He was out here, George. I'd been in the living room with Rick Winters, and when I stepped out on the porch for a minute, and there, right there through the fog, there's a fence over there. You sure it was Martin? Yes, he was tall, like they said. He was crossing the fence on a stile. I could hear his feet on the board. Come on, let's take a look. He was holding his arms close as though we were carrying something. I called out, I couldn't help it, and then he ran away. Oh, the poor guy. George, don't you think we should... Well, I mean, you're not strong enough to handle him alone. Hey, Angel, didn't Kegley leave the house? Kegley? Well, sure, a few minutes ago, I think. George! Yeah, his car's still here. Booksy, look! Looks like Lawrence Kegley walked right into it, doesn't he? Oh, didn't even reach his car to get away. He's dead, all right, Booksy. Just like do we. You have to keep playing it! Okay, still. I was only trying to keep our minds away from the maw, the fog, and the crackling twigs outside. There, there you see, you jumped a foot just then. The tick of the clock that doesn't bring help fast enough. Buster, I think we can do without that treatment. All right, I'll stick to music. Do you like music, Miss Brooks? Mr. Winters, I think you're just hurting yourself. I think you're both being pretty foolish about something. I think it's pretty obvious what it is. Observant, aren't you? I told you to come away. I told you I didn't want to see you again. Yes. Yes, late this afternoon, she stood out there in the sunken garden with the sunset in her hair. And I kissed her goodbye. How could I help but come back?  But I think I'm here to stay now, don't you? Oh, can't you ever think of poor Joe? Hmm, that's a laugh. Get out of here. Mrs. Martin, you never worried about Joe before. You're pretty much of a heel, aren't you, Buster? I've never hurt Joe. I've never. Ah, both of you. No, no, no, I'll get it. Yeah, hello. Oh, yeah, what is it? Yeah. Yes, I've got it. Okay, thanks. Who was it? What did they want? Uh, it, uh... Well, it was a sheriff's office, that song. Yeah, he left some time ago. Be here pretty soon. Yes. Yes, the sheriff will be here. And he'll bring men.  But Joe doesn't know what he's doing. He's out there all alone thinking everyone's plotting against him. Don't get carried away now. And I've plotted myself, at least in my mind. I did love Rick once when I thought my husband was dead. Well, I'm not going to let him kill him now. I'm going to find him myself. Estelle. If you were half a man, you'd feel the same way. Mrs. Martin, stop.  I'm going alone. Joe won't hurt me if I'm alone. He trusts me. He doesn't know about Rick. Joe loves me. It's the least I can do. George. Yeah, and I don't worry. And Joe will be right behind you. Here, take a look at this fast. What? That wasn't the sheriff's office on the phone. It was Western Union. Oh, the telegram Douglas sent to the doctor. Yeah, I scribbled it down here. Joe Martin took sudden turn for worse late this afternoon. Yeah. Violent for first time. Take him precautions and we'll bring him into hospital first thing in the morning. But George... Hey, come on. There she goes. I guess her idea is right, George. She can bring him in without frightening him. He wouldn't hurt her, but in this fog and in his own male nursery, he was violent. See, we didn't have to be told Joe Martin was violent. No! Which room in the house did her husband have? What? Well, I don't know. The one up front, I think. Uh-huh. And this is the sunken garden right here. Hmm? Late this afternoon. Late? George, you could see this garden from Joe's room. Yeah. You could see Rick Winter's kissing your wife. And the telegram said the same time, Joe violent. Oh, George, he must have seen one. Something must have snapped inside of him. Only then it's Rick Winter's who's likely to be... Hey, back to it. What? But who's... Joe! Hey, Joe! Winter's the crazy... He took a day to be a man, didn't he? Hey, Joe! Joe! But he's the one who's in danger to him. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Come on. Good. Scared away. Heard us coming. You didn't get a full swing. Uh, Rick! Uh... Yeah. Yeah, a rock was lifted up and swung against his head, just like the other two. We keep asking for it, don't we? Rick, I... It's okay. I've got it, Mrs. Martin. Now let's get him back to the house. George! Look... Joe! By the fence. Steps. On the… He's coming back. He's coming back, Joe. He wouldn't hurt me. I could call Art and I could... No! Quick, stay where the book's in. He's headed for the house. I'll be with you as soon as I can make it. I think Rick here is gonna be okay if we get into a hospital first enough. George, the door's locked. Okay, I'll go around and... No! Mrs.  Now I know he won't. Miss, I should. I haven't cared for him, Miss. I should. I haven't understood his illness. Yeah, yeah. He's a pretty sick man, all right? The telegram said he was violent. But Douglas also told the doctor he'd taken precautions. And Joe looks very calm now. What are you talking about? It's just too bad you didn't know what those precautions were, Mrs. Martin. You could have saved yourself so much acting. Wait. Listen. It's Joe. It's Joe! I said don't be afraid of him, Mrs. Martin. He's quite calm. And he holds his arms close as though he were carrying something just like Brooks said. He can't pick up any rocks to swing at people like you can. Yes, Mrs. Martin. Joe has been wearing a straight jacket. But, Mr. Valentine, consider the end is. Terrible things happen to men in the end is. Hey, look, will you please not interrupt if you want the whole story? Okay, okay. Now, Mrs. Martin did it. She did all of it. Why? Well, she didn't plan it that way, I guess. But when it all happened, it would have been so easy to blame her killings on a man who was out of his mind. Not response. That is what I say. The end is. Oh, you mean Joe Martin was that way because of his plane crash? Uh-uh. He'd always been a little unstable. But Estelle didn't help it much. She'd already talked Lawrence Kegley into playing around with his dough for her benefit. She had Rick Winters in her pocket even though he knew what she was up to. And after the crash, his mind sought escape. Well, see, that is what happens. Yeah, yeah. But most people don't have wives who push their minds in that direction. Because that's why she didn't want him in a sanitarium. He would have been cured. He will be. I do not understand North American women. Why not? In my country and the slopes of the Andes, a woman would use a machete. Huh? What? I'm recording a little very nicely in the valley. A woman with machete. Yeah, look, senor, you don't mind if Miss Brooks and I dance, do you? Not at all. The woman was also burdened with too much weight. No, wait in. Hey, wait, bring that man on order of chili conconi. Come on, Angel. This is where we came in. If you're a motorist, here's a word of advice from independent Chevron gas stations and standard stations. It's a proofed fact that corrosive rust causes 80% of all engine wear. This high-cost corrosion starts the moment your engine stops. It's caused by acid-laden moisture that instantly settles on internal parts in an idle engine. To stop the attack of rust, special compounds have been added to RPM motor oil. One compound in RPM is an adhering agent. It keeps a moisture-proof film on internal parts so that rust can't get a start, even if your car stands idle for weeks.  No wonder premium quality RPM is first choice in the West. It's the oil that stops 80% of what engine wear. So for longer car life, get RPM motor oil. Ask for it at standard stations and at independent Chevron gas stations, where they say, and mean, we take better care of your car. Next week, when we catch up with George Valentine, as he's trying to enjoy a well-earned vacation with a little fishing, we'll hear Bruxy saying, George, you caught something. Pull it in. I am, I am. It's not putting a bunch of a fight, though. I don't... Oh. Yeah, well, no wonder. Why, it's a body.  Only it's the first little boy I ever saw with gray hair. But then it's a niche. Yeah, Angel. Brother, this is going to be some vacation. Tonight's adventure of George Valentine has been brought to you by Standard of California on behalf of independent Chevron gas stations and standard stations throughout the West. Robert Bailey is starred as George with Francis Robinson as Bruxy. Let George Do It is written by David Victor and Jackson Gillis and directed by Don Clark. Also heard in the cast were J. Novello as Estoso, Dara Singleton as Estelle, Robert Bruce as Bergstrom, Peter Leeds as Rick, and Will Wright as Kegley. The music is composed and presented by Eddie Dunstetter. Your announcer, John Heaston. Listen again next week, same time, same station, to Let George Do It. This is the mutual Don Lee Broadcasting System.


We've welcomed people from the media, and we've had a lady come down from Radio 4, and we've also had Plymouth Live and Plymouth Howl and things come in and watch the process, and the general consensus has been, is that it? That is it. Oh, thank God, you know, but every single one of those people who came, including the people from Warsaw Animal Action, were terrified about what they were potentially going to see, or what they would witness, and then they come out and they say, I didn't think it was going to be anything like that. These cameras here, like if this is so normal and natural, and you know, humane, and look at them shutting these big gates, it's absolutely insane, like slaughterhouses are worried that this gets out to the public. Why? You know? Why? So normal and, you know, so ethical, it's so ethical here. You know? What's the problem? Wow. Are we allowed to film it with the camera? Are we allowed to film it through the... OK. OK. OK. No problems. So this is all real time. This was at 28 minutes past 12. So this will be the steer that you showed us, yeah? Yeah. And this is the animal that I can show you, this animal being sorted on the film. OK. So you can see exactly how it will work. Here he is coming into the stun box. So here there's a check gate here, and there's also one behind as well. Just using a stick. There's two loads to get your arm in. But as you can see, there's no... No heating on the animal. A lot of places, no. Well I suppose they're really just trying to keep up the production line, aren't they, when they do that, aren't they? Yeah. So you can see the check gates closed there behind. OK, yep. And that's me. Rocking the bobble hat. So we actually used black shot on this bollock because he was sort of borderline. I wasn't sure if he was going to be 600 kilos or bigger. Yeah. So we always are on the side of caution. To make sure it's a really clean shot. Yeah. To make sure it's an effective shot. It pierces through the skull. OK, sweetie. OK, so these cows here are all waiting to be slaughtered.  Processed into steak for the individual who raised them. So it's interesting to raise someone, take care of them, take them here to be chopped up into pieces and then eat their body. For me, that's just like really outside of what I would consider moral. Bollock stepped back so it's sort of a bit tricky for Gage to reach in. I just thought I personally couldn't do that, but I would just want to keep them as friends. So this is where, for example, I'll shoot from above. OK. So because this animal is quiet, if you can see it wasn't stressed, it wasn't thrashing around at all. So he's essentially unconscious now? Yes, he's unconscious. So we double check, we check for any reflex of the eye or any rhythmic breathing before we open the gate in case there needs to be a re-stun. OK. So you can see there's no rhythmic breathing, there's no blinking of the eye, there's no movement. More from than not, their tongue will hang out. The BBC were doing a series of programmes called The Food Chain. OK. And they came from London and they said they approached, I don't know how many avatars I think it was nine. Between Cornwall and London and Naples, they either didn't get a response or they got a note. And we said, well, why? Why do they got to hide?  Why would you not want to cooperate or let people see what you do? I guess mainly the problem they would see, like big places like that, is that it might affect their business. And a lot of big plants have supermarket contracts and so they don't want people in. Because if they say, oh yeah, like I said, sometimes things go wrong.  This abattoir supply such and such a supermarket.  Then, yeah. So we shackled the front leg. So we're hoisting it now over the blood pit. And I think historically a lot of things can be misconstrued. You know, yes, I've seen some footage of other abattoirs in the slaughter and stunning process. It may come sick. This is our OV who's present every single slaughter and that there is a vertical chestic. You go vertically just to get as many arteries as you can? Yeah, what it does is by using vertical chestic you're cutting the arteries that come in from the heart. So they bleed out an awful lot quicker. Heymans wasn't it in Ottery St Mary and I thought they were heavy handed with a cattle. It wasn't illegal, but from how we operate I thought it's a bit heavy handed, a bit unnecessary. And that's all just reflexes the animal kicking in. So you're just waiting for the blood to drop out the animal? And how do you know when it will stop? So the heart's beating the blood out? At the moment, yes.  I was like, yeah, you know, a bit unnecessary. But yeah, at the same time it wasn't illegal. And you know, we've seen some things happen. I've seen farmers treat their animals worse. Some farmers, some farmers are brilliant as you can tell by the livestock when they come in. Well, I guess because like when an animal becomes property, their property, they can treat their property essentially how they want. But I don't want to clean my car. Well, if you're looking at it, like, well, they're just, they're just stock to me. Yeah, but you've still got trading standards. As you can see on here, his tongue was out, there was no rhythmic breathing, no movement from the eye. So that was an effectively stunned animal. He had a pig come in once, didn't we? Yeah. And he brought in, I think it was like six or seven pigs and you open the tailboard of the trailer and they're all scrabbling over each other and you're thinking, something's not right here.  Oh my God. So phoned him up and I said, when you come in, we need to have a chat. Yeah.  I said, I've taken pictures, I've sent them to trading standards. And well, we both said to him, didn't we? If you ever bring anything like that here again, we'll have nothing to do with you. I was like, there's no need for it. He said, oh, it wouldn't load. I was like, there's ways and means about it.  So you can literally just like, yeah.  We slaughtered it. So the breezing came out after the pig was closer. You couldn't see the marks on the skin until the hair was removed. Yeah, okay now. And obviously for the breezing to come through, wasn't it? Because it only loaded that morning. And you've seen the damage to the animal's body after you removed the skin and thought there was something up there? Oh gosh, yeah. It was horrific. So she said, she was at a halal plant. And she said, so that there was nerves. And she said she witnessed once an animal taking sort of 14 minutes to die. Yeah, I've got a video on my channel where an animal took about 10 to 15 minutes to die. So that is the entire slaughter process. Where were the rest of the processing happening in this room here? Yeah. So you get contrast like that. But then you get some farmers who are lovely and dope on their animals. You got other people who are happy-handed. Opson farmers have tear up driving their animals to the slaughterhouse. We've had people here in tears in the laryg. We've said, if you feel this strongly, you don't have to do this. You don't have to do it. You've got the option. You can keep these animals around. Yeah, but they've all said it's always been that this animal is going to go in the freeze. The destiny of the animal. That is it. And if they took it home, the Mrs would kill them. But yeah. And we've had guys in tears. Yeah, and we've said you can come in and watch it. Yeah, we've said yeah. Would it reassure you if you want to come and see the stunt? And some guys have gone, would you mind, no? Grab it with the tongs and it's gone like millisecond. They said, that's it. Oh, thank God. The visions of, I don't know what, of us bludging it to the club animals. So, yeah. Very interesting that people have these emotional reactions to letting their animals down. It's not a problem with that. To guard the sun and carefree is good. Yeah. You know what you're saying? It's my property. You can't really have that mentality. A lot of people do though, don't they? I don't know. I don't know any people, really, not personally, that are co-warraff. Okay. So it's hoisted onto a cradle. Okay. So we've removed the head. So that's the first thing you do is remove the head? Yeah. So the head is removed and skinned. That way the vet can check to see the shot if it was in the right place. So you can see, even now, the animal has been dead for quite a few minutes. There are still reflexes. You can see the tail still moving.  There's nothing communicating with the body at all. It is literally just nerves.  I don't think it's desensitised. I think it's frustration. Like we said earlier on, they've got their own characters and pigs. Pigs are by far the hardest, the most difficult livestock to handle. They're very anxious animals. They're very anxious. It only takes one little thing. And as soon as pigs realise something's up, that's it. They're not doing it. But that's why we offer a collection service. Because having been pig owners, avatar owners and handlers, we know the animals, their behaviours and generally how things will go and a good setup and what isn't a good setup. So we offer a collection service for small holders. So what we'll do is we'll load up the animals and like I said, we went and picked up a couple of pigs for an elderly couple. They weren't that old, were they? But he just had a knee replacement or something and she was going to have a hip done.  I see you helped process the animal as well. Yeah, I'm fully licensed. So it's OK to put some corn on the tail bore, walk away, leave them and just wait. 15 minutes later, just walk to the gate. And also, in my limited experience with pigs, if you let them find their own way, it's quicker than trying to force them. You try to force them and then they think you're up to something. You just want them not to know what's about to happen if they have any idea that something's up. If we've got pigs that come in that are stressed, if they're not used to seeing people or if they've had a nasty transport here, a nasty journey and they urinate in the stun pen, then what they do is the stress. They release a hormone in their pee. So what we do, if you've had any pigs that have come in and they're stressed or anxious, then what we do is we wash out. Wash their hormone because the other pigs can smell it and they know something's up in it.  Something's going on in here. The people who are responsible for the animal welfare aren't on the floor doing the job. Whereas for myself and John, we're the managers, we own the avatar. We're on the floor doing it. So we invested all this money for this system for any people like themselves to go and watch it. It's full transparency. And it's interesting some slaughterhouses act like they've got something to hide. And slaughterhouses are worried that this gets out to the public. Why? If it's just food, if it's just, you're not doing nothing wrong, why hide? The thing is, if you ask anyone, farmer, smallholder, vet, anyone, when you're working with livestock, sometimes things go wrong, but it's not what happens, it's how you deal with it and it makes you a good slaughterman or a good vet. You have to do what is best for the animal. Other slaughterhouses wouldn't do that, would they? Probably not, because they're all in a rush rush. Well, because there's such a big demand and they're trying to meet that demand and things have to happen. I don't know if Kelly explained a lot of the big plans that the staff have paid on piecework. So the more you do, the more you get paid. So everyone's in a hurry up. A quota to meet sort of things. So if a pig is like, I'm not quite sure. Rather than backing off and taking the pressure off and the pigs in, okay, nothing's happening, I'll walk on. They're going to make it happen, they're going to make it happen. Because they're under pressure themselves in there. If you're holding up the production line.  They don't have time to take the animals into account in there, you know. No, they're not, no. But then all of that comes back to the consumer. The consumer doesn't want to pay. And the skin, what happens with the skins? The hides, we send those off. We get £14 a hide. When we first bought the face in 2013, we were getting £35 a hide. So, for small arbitrails, that's a massive, massive difference. A massive blow and profit. And what was there any reason for that? Basically, it's the Chinese. The Chinese were paying over the odds for hides and skins for quite a long time. And ended up with a lot of other tanneries going out of business because they couldn't afford to pay what the Chinese were paying. But also, for example, the vegan movement, a lot of these hides and skins now have very little value, if any. Because the demand for leather is slowing down? Yeah. If our overheads go up, the price has to go up. Because if we can only sort of eight pigs an hour rather than a big plant that can, their costs are very similar but they can process 20 pigs an hour, then we have to charge more. And so, for the consumer to turn around and say, do you know what? That's too expensive. It's like you have to ask, what am I buying? So if you're buying pork or beef or lamb from a recutable source and they know what breed it was, where it was reared, how it was slaughtered, how it was butchered. And it's not just a lamb chop. There's a story behind it. That is what the consumer needs to be asking. And that costs a little bit more. But it's one of those things, isn't it? Most consumers don't want to really know that far into it. No, of course not. We continue skinning. We're having a conflag. I seem to do more talking than I do actually working. No. So we're taking the skin off. And this is the gutting process. Dad's clearly only done half a job. Oh, we're now taking the cheeks off. Gage told me it was dad that put them more on one bag. Also, I just wanted to ask you this question just come up.  Yes. I now, the only poultry I eat is organic chicken. You don't slaughter a poultry from here. Birds terrify me. Birds terrify. But you still eat pork, beef and lamb. Only the slaughtered here. I won't buy meat from anywhere else. You slaughtered the animals yourself, don't you? Yes. Interesting. Generally, lambs, we buy Scotch Brat faces, don't we, off Donna? And they come from Mary Tavey. So they're born on the farm. They're grazed up on the moor. So there's lots of heather, lots of growth, lots of moss. And we will generally slaughter. We'll buy them off when they're sort of toothed. So they're sort of about 12, between 12 months and two year old. And that way you've got a much better flavour. They've had a longer life. And all of that experience does add to the flavour by giving them slightly longer. We know her as a person. She's a really lovely lady. She's a very good farmer. So we're very particular now. Oh yeah, it would be interesting. It's very interesting to meet someone who sources, slaughters and eats the animals that they... That's sort of the definition of a master butcher back in the day. So you burn all the heads and stuff like that. And do you use any of the... Do the customer want any of the insides? Yeah, the offal is always used. So hearts, lungs, liver, the cheeks, the tail. How old is that steer? I can tell you. Like on average, what would you say? 18 months or 12 months? No, I would have said he'd be pushing 20, 24 months. Okay, two years, yeah. He was born the 18th of February 2017. Okay. Yeah, that's his holding number. That's his ear tag number. His breed. It's similar to like a human being's birth certificate in a way. It is, yeah. So this is the date that he was moved off of his original holding, which is the 28th of January 2019. So he came in yesterday. And this is the day that he was killed. It's a birth and death certificate? Yes, but this here, it will, you know, he could be moved from three or four or five farms through his life. And all of that will be registered on his passport. Wow. So this is his passport, a castle passport. I am, my mind is like blown right now. So you know, there should be full traceability. Hello darling. Boy or girl? That's a girl. Hello darling. I can check the passport on her age, but I've got a feeling she's one that she couldn't get in the car. She's quite shy. Yeah.  That salon steak was from that animal and that salon steak was from that animal. It can get when you're processing, yeah, when you're processing massive amounts. So like if you go to the supermarket and buy some mince to meet, that could be mince to meet from like all these different animals. Yeah, yeah, it could be. So a burger could contain more animals than... It could contain two or three, you know, genetically. It could contain, you know, meat from two or three different animals. Wow. I think that's, we've got a lot of... everything fully transparent here. I'm really, really surprised. And that there has really blown my mind. I didn't know they had individual passports, death and birth certificate. Yeah. Okay. Well, I appreciate your transparency in the tour. And you know, you could have easily said no, but this is really surprising that you let us in here. No, this is what we're all about, isn't it? I was going to say, like although we have like different views on, you know, killing the animals. And, you know, I don't believe animals are here for us to use as products and treated as property. I believe they have their own individual value and we should be guardians of them. I can see that this is, like I can see when you're talking about this, it's an emotional topic for you, and you're very connected to this. And you're trying to minimise the harm as much as possible, but doing something that you feel you don't see there's any other option, but to try to make this, you know, the killing of the animals is, you know, ethical as possible. Yeah. And you, in contrast to what other slaughterhouses are doing, are trying to make this, you know, as clean and quick and stress free. Yeah. You would still say that you believe this is 100% a needed thing to happen? Yes. Yeah. And I guess that's where you and I would break off, because I would say that, you know, it's not necessary, and we don't need to do this to animals, and we have, you know, there's an alternative that we could exercise, but I guess that's probably where we break off, because you feel like there's no other option, but to do it, and if we're going to do it, do it in the best way possible. Yeah. And I feel like there's a, there's torture in kill, treat them nicely in kill, or not kill at all, and I lean towards that option for myself, so I guess, but I just want to say that. Yeah.  So, you know, if in 10, 15, 20 years time, the entire world does become vegan, and we don't see animals out in the field, or whatever, and they're going to be made into houses, you know, then obviously that's something that would need to be looked at later on down the line, but until that point, and people do eat meat, and people do want to eat meat, it's important to eat meat that is produced, slaughtered, and processed in the most traditional, ethical, and, you know, the best way, what I consider the best way possible, which is by respecting them, having empathy, and treating the animal as an individual, rather than a unit that has to be processed, however many units per hour. You know, they've got their own personalities, they are individual, and they need to be treated as such, whereas here they can and are, whereas a lot of big places, they don't have the time to do so. Well, I suppose that's because there's such a demand. Yes. So, how could you possibly meet demand of billions of people? You need billions more animals, and the process has to be... But for me, like, respecting someone, treating someone as an individual, also includes respecting their right to live, and that's where we branch off. But thank you so much for this civil discussion and agreeing to being on camera, and thank you. Can we spend some time with the animals? Yeah, yeah. John's just bedding them up, so he's just going to have a little shuffle round. So, and then, yeah, you're more than welcome. Oh, my God, look at... Are we filming once again? Look at this adorable, adorable angel. But... Is this a girl or boy? I believe it's a girl.  Oh, my God. You're beautiful. Look at that face. I want to do one more last question before we finish this. Would you ever do a vegan challenge for 22 days? No. Why? Why not? No way. Like, just as a personal challenge? What have you got to lose? No, I couldn't. No, no way.  No, in that this job is incredibly physical. And, you know, you have to have a certain amount of protein. Strength? And I know it's a bit... You know, there's like... There's like bodybuilders that are vegan, you know that, right? Sorry? There's like bodybuilders that are vegan. Oh, yeah, but, you know, I just... I personally couldn't do it. You couldn't? No. I thought that would be a nice addition to the end of the video. Go, hey, would you do a vegan challenge? And she go, okay, I'll give it a go. We all go, yeah! He's adorable. How old? One year?  Oh, darling. And they... So the night before they get dropped over, so she'll be slaughtered tomorrow? Yeah. You're going to be slaughtered tomorrow? And she doesn't know. Is there anyone in here? Do you think it's kind of a lot to know? I just look at it from my perspective, like, whenever I ask these, like, ethical issues, I just think, like, what would I want? Yeah. Yeah. Would you want to know or not? Of course not. I'd rather just be...  You know, but... I would also not want to be killed as well. No, I know, yeah. I would prefer not to be killed and chopped up into pieces and fed to my father, but... Maybe we should take her for a... Maybe we should take her for a vegan meal. Like, a really... Somewhere really good will select somewhere really good, because she's going to be... And then you can come around mine for a barbecue. As long as there's... Linda McCartney won't. Yeah, Linda McCartney's only. Okay. Thanks so much. Thanks for your time. Don't worry. Thank you.


I'm just going to go through and we're going to talk about some things that have been happening in the JavaScript community over the last half a long, last month. So last month we talked about whether Express was dying or not. This is a valid concern because the lead maintainer of it, well, Doug Wilson, basically he was doing all the work and Strongloop was taking all of the credit and then IBM acquired Strongloop and Doug, I don't know which company he works for but apparently they're a direct competitor to IBM so then there was a big conflict and Doug wasn't sure why should I even bother working for this company where I'm not even getting any credit and not only that they're a competitor but being a good resolution to this, Express is now in an incubation project of the Node Foundation so this is sort of a new thing that's come out of the new open government's model which has been established for the Node project and hang on, oh god, go away, responsibilities, okay. So now it's been moved to a sort of an open model which is sort of similar to the way that the Node project itself is going to be governed so there's going to be a working group, a technical committee, all this kind of stuff which is first to help move the Express project forward. It includes Express, the website and all of the packages which Express uses because Express nowadays is really just sort of like a glue, it doesn't really do much, it just gives you that request response next pattern. So that's cool but what does this really mean, just means that Express gets to live. Doug Wilson who's doing really great work, he can continue to work on the project, he supports this move and also a lot of the other contributors, it's a very constructive thread if there's a very long GitHub issue, if you care to read it, go check it out, interesting but Express is now a part of the Node foundation so that's really cool. Last month we also had a remote memory disclosure via the buffer module which is built into Node so the buffer has an unsafe API where if you accidentally pass in a number to the buffer constructor you can get back uninitialized memory which could contain things like passwords or keys or other things which shouldn't be revealed to anyone. So this was a problem and Feros identified this and he's released a package called SafeBuffer so if you're concerned about accidentally leaking memory, uninitialized memory to your clients all you have to do is drop in the SafeBuffer module, it works exactly like the buffer module but it adds a couple of additional methods and the one that you're interested in there is the buffer.alloc method which gives you zeroed memory which will be safe to use, won't expose anything that it's not supposed to. Well there'll be a small trade off because it needs to zero the memory, a small performance overhead but minimal and you have to install it, you have to have it an extra dependency because that's the trade off. So another exciting development which that happened last month was Microsoft submitted a pull request to Node Core to add the JavaScript runtime that lives in the new Microsoft Edge browser to get that to live alongside the VA implementation in Node. So basically you would be running Node instead of on top of VA, you run it on Sharker Core which is pretty cool. There was a very, very lengthy discussion and lots of emotions and the issue was closed which may not be surprising but it was actually closed in a good way. It's been converted in, the resolution is that they've added a new repo under the Node JS account called Node Sharker Core and it's basically a fork of Node that runs on Sharker Core and it's under the Node JS account so it's like an official fork and the reasoning behind doing this as opposed to maintaining the fork, to maintain the other engine inside the Node account, the Node thing was they want to allow experimentation but they don't want to put any additional burden on the current maintainers which are already, they already have enough things to worry about like we'll see in a moment. And so how this will work is every week they'll merge with the Node core and update their version. It also, the Node issues queue is already full of stuff so I guess it's a nice thing as well because anything to do with the Sharker Core stuff can go into the Sharker Core fork issues so that's nice. Good resolution, support that. On to this month's news, the NPM, so Isaac released a blog post recently saying that he was intending on moving the Node command line client into A Foundation, didn't necessarily say that he was going to move it into Node JS Foundation but he wants to move it into A Foundation and I'm not sure what's prompted this but there has been a lot of alternative Node clients popping up and there's been a few issues coming around about people complaining about the fact that all of us were relying on a single company to make NPM happen so people are concerned about this and so moving into A Foundation, that's a really good thing. Good for the community, good for the client, it'll be overall good. We've now got ES 2016, it's been announced, you may have been quite excited when you saw the ES 2015 get released, it has all these many, many features, amazing number of features so you might be surprised at the next slide. Not only that, here I'll zoom in a bit, and they're not even very interesting. So exponentiation operator just allows you to do exponents, it's hat hat and includes, just tells you whether something's included. This is it, that's everything for ES 2016, yeah, 2015 was hopefully like a once off, the community, we still haven't got everything that was implemented in ES 2015, implemented in modern engines. So if they went and did that same thing again I'm pretty sure everybody would have burnt the place down, so this is probably a good thing. But the other point is that it doesn't, well you don't have to, well, things which people might be surprised, there was no decorators and there were no async functions, async functions were very close to getting in but they didn't quite make it. And the reason why is because the proposals to go into the spec have to go through a process, they start out at strawman and then they go through stage zero all the way up to stage four.  And you'll see here that the only two ones that actually made it to stage four are these two includes and the exponentiation operator. So but the point is is that you don't have to actually wait for ES 2017, browsers implementers are free to implement the features as soon as they reach stage four. So what will happen is these features will start trickling into browsers and hopefully, so yeah as soon as it's at stage four it's basically ready to go into the spec. So hopefully we won't have to wait a whole year to get some of these other features which are already, the good features which are already at stage three. I recommend going to that website and having a look at some of the features that are being proposed and because there's a lot of interesting stuff in the pipeline. There was a node security release this month, includes two vulnerabilities, request smuggling and response splitting. If nothing, it's interesting just to go read what these things are, they're fairly low, they're not incredibly severe and there's also the updated versions of node that include that security fix also include an updated version of open SSL which comes with more fixes. So if you are running node in production, who's running node in production now? So if you are on 010, 012, 4.3 or V4 or V5, these versions are all affected by these vulnerabilities so make sure that you update to at least these versions. Promises and core. So somebody has submitted a pull request to take all of the core APIs and at the moment the API if you've used node, the API that we use is callback based and you pass a function to the thing that you're calling and you get an error and a response back but with promises you get like a dot then function that you get. So it's taking, well it's taking something that looks like this and making it look like that which might not seem important but some people think that this is basically the end of the world and it's a major drama, it's one of the most drama's drama. It's serious, serious reading and the poor lad that has submitted this pull request is this, this guy here Chris Dickinson, he's actually, he's very brave, let's just say that but he's been working like so hard to get this pull request in so people will raise issues and he writes like two feet of response, lengthy discussion, so this issue which is still open, it's been open for a number of days, has 544 comments on it with 83 participants, that's an issue, so the issue got so out of control, it's got a TLDR at the top of it and it's actually it's been converted into its own repo with open issues, there's 20 of them and pull requests, so it's serious but it might actually happen, you might actually get promises and call one day. So you promise or promise? I don't promise anything. But yeah some of the concerns are there's the existing APIs break so it would be really nice so if something like fs.read file, if it just, because at the moment it doesn't return anything useful, it could just return a promise but there's a bunch of APIs which do return stuff so you can't just apply this thing liberally over the entire API so that sucks, it also breaks a bunch of introspection tools which are in Node, things like, when you've got promises things like syntax errors will now get caught by this thing and then you have this bubbling issue and it also breaks post-mortem debugging, there's all these issues, if you want to watch this Node.js promises repo. It's interesting, it's very interesting. Browser news. Are you in favor or? I don't think it's worth having an opinion on other than, yeah, whatever. The thing is people get really emotional about promises and it's just like it's not worth it, it's not worth it. They're cool and generally the people who don't like them are exactly the people who haven't used them. If you haven't invested, let's say, if you haven't, I sort of feel like you don't have a valid opinion about something until you've used it with an open mind in production, until then you're just being emotional. Sorry. That's a good point. I actually started using promises because I hated them, I was wrong, I hated them and I was using them to dig up more dirt so that I would have a more substantial argument so I could say exactly why they were crap. But I was like, oh, they're actually not that bad. So anyway. In browser news, I had trouble finding good stuff on this, but nearly done. All the major browsers are now implementing fetch and everything except for Edge is shipping service workers and Edge is prototyping it. So that's really cool. So these are interesting new features which are coming down the line. And also our mate Glenn, he also points out that everything by Edge has now got CSS variables, which is also a really powerful feature. So that's cool. Looks like all the web stream stuff is happening. Go check out Jake Archibald's post on that. This changes the way that we interact with servers, basically. Local news. Ghost, which is a popular blogging platform built on Node.js. They're moving their business to Singapore. It doesn't mean they're actually ever going to be here, but it's nice. So that's cool. And there's also an event called Fossa Asia which is happening next month and I would like to invite the person who is running that to come up and talk a little bit more about that in a second. Because, well, otherwise I have to come up and show this one slide which says End. Afterwards. So that's it. That's me. I'm done. Thank you.


The last area that I want to talk about is something that you may have heard about. If you're a product manager, you've definitely experienced, and that's the idea of imposter syndrome. For people who are just getting into product management or even people who have just transitioned to a new company doing product management, you always hit the idea of, I shouldn't be doing this. Why am I here? Why is someone trusting me to make sure that we're solving this for the users? You get over it from experience, and I'm sure other people who have experienced it, you get over it, but it's a little hard, and it's really just a confidence thing. What I want to share is that there are ways that you can gain confidence specifically around imposter syndrome, both in startups and in business school. In the startup realm, everyone comes into a product having these lofty goals of, I want to change the world, I want to reinvent the way people commute, I want to do all of these things. What I found from talking to other people in startups is if you can break down lofty goals into very manageable milestones and celebrate those milestones, it allows you to really feel confident, and it allows your team to feel confident that you're succeeding in what you're trying to do, and that helps break down some of these ideas of doubt. All imposter syndrome is doubt in yourself or doubt in your team, and it's not really real, it's just something that you will experience in product management.
