Hello everyone. This presentation will be an update on what we did in the last half a year regarding Iridium. I mean as many of you know probably we have been sidetracked by some other shiny new toy and which means that we had a few months in the beginning of this year to actually continue working on Iridium and then kind of had to quit to get this other thing done. So therefore this presentation I'll try to talk a bit more about the details we didn't talk about at Congress and we have a few new things actually in terms of hardware and software. Okay, so I'm going to skip quickly over the stuff we already covered at Congress. In general it's good. This talk is about the Iridium pager network was our main goal at the Congress to get some paging messages from Iridium decoded and that worked kind of okay. We just dissected the pager and had a look at it, but really was just special chips, nothing to find about them. One of them said calypso, which is kind of what you expect in the GSM handset from somewhere in the 2000s, but seems like the calypso chip inside this device doesn't have much to do with the GSM calypso. So what's kind of a dead end? Yeah, it's a calypso and Iridium satellite. Now the original idea about the Iridium network and why to look at it is it's a simplex system and the Iridium satellite just sends data down to you. You don't have an uplink, at least for the pager messages. So the Iridium system doesn't really know where you are and it just has to kind of guess where you are. You have to give it a rough estimate maybe and which is interesting if you want to receive messages and don't want to be tracked at the same time. It's 66 active satellites and low of orbit, which makes it nice to receive them because they have a rather strong signal because they're quite near to us. Think about 600 kilometers. So with rather inexpensive equipment, you can already receive them and we'll touch on that a little bit later in the presentation. Okay. Frequency-wise it's around 1.6 gigahertz, slightly below GSM in the frequency spectrum. Sorry. Yeah, back at the Congress.  It's really more kind of a myth that it's hard and we just got into it and we gave you the radios to basically dive into it also. So you're all satellite hackers by now. You have the equipment. Go have fun with it. Go have fun with our tool chain. And at the beginning we started with some RTLSDRs that doesn't work really well. We tried with a USRP that worked a little bit better, but we still didn't get anything with the antenna we had. We bought really expensive stuff to get something going and we spent like 200, 300 euros on things and we went to the roof and got our first signals in the FFT, which is nice. Cool. There's something to decode, at least something to work on. And if you look at the waterfall, we have the SCR challenge up right now. I think the website was broken, but in general you're also looking for signals, for example in the waterfall. Anyone maybe who has taken part of that has seen these signals crawling through in the waterfall. And we have some very slow signals going on here. But if you're ready, they're quite fast.  That basically was what took us the most time. Here you have a packet. It's a preamble, just a carrier, just a pure tone in the signal. And that's quite nice because you can detect that easily and you can just look at the power in the signal and detect the signal. And then a part in the packet comes which is unique. And we trigger on that in our tool chain to continue decoding the stuff. And here you can see a little bit of the modulation. So here you have BPSK and you can see that the blue and the red line, they go together. And you can, an RF signal, you can decompose into two components to work with them easily. And of course the two components can go differently or they can go together. If they go together in this case, you can transmit less information, but it's easier to decode. So that's the unique word with iridium. And later on the two go into different directions and that's then, it contains a little bit more information. That's actually where the data section is located with iridium. At the congress, we showed you some setup and we just took an RTL-SDR, stepped on a low-noise amplifier and got some antenna from Mauser, which is some electronic distributor and put it onto a little metallic plate. And that kind of works okay. It's a lot of, you know, you have to get these components and you have to solder them together and it's like a big setup. So we have proved that stuff a little bit. If you take an RTL-SDR and just modify it a little bit and take a GPS antenna, active GPS antenna, it's the most cost-efficient setup you can have. We optimized the tool chain also a little bit. It's more efficient. Then you can actually run it on a Raspberry Pi. So if you take a Raspberry Pi version 2, put on an LCD display, add a battery and an RTL-SDR, you have your mobile pager system, pager receiver right there. On our wiki, let's see. Can you switch to the web browser? This is the wiki of the new CCC. And we have some comparisons of antennas, active versus passive, which you can get as commercial antennas or how to modify GPS antennas. It's actually quite easy.  You just open it and then basically... There's just a big filter in the middle. And if you remove this filter, your GPS antenna suddenly becomes an active iridium antenna. And we have a slight modification on RTL-SDR, which is also documented in the wiki. It's basically just adding a little bit of data. You can get your RTL-SDR to supply some power to the GPS antenna, and you get a very good signal out of that stuff. So what you can build with just a little metal box and you put the RTL stick in there in a modified GPS antenna, is this thing. It's just a very small iridium receiver. You just put it in the wiki. It's basically just adding a small coil and adding an SMA connector on the side. It's just a very small iridium receiver. You just plug it into your notebook or plug it into an Raspberry Pi, and it will give you a quite good signal to receive iridium-pager messages. So the system is mobile, and... Actually, did you skip that? And you just add a battery and you have a mobile receiver set up. And right at camp now, like an hour ago, we tested different options for receivers. So we had the RTL-SDR with the active antenna, and we had a radio batch with a passive iridium antenna. So just take a radio batch, you saw Lauren as an SMA connector, and you get a passive antenna. It's just an off-the-shelf iridium antenna. You can get them at mouse or digi-key or something like that.  Actually, a quite good iridium receiver. And even with the onboard PCB antenna here, you can just use that and still receive satellites, iridium satellites, actually. And we tested it, we did let it run for half an hour, and with the PCB antenna, you get around 22% of all the packets that you can receive with a proper iridium antenna. And if you just look, for example, for the Ringalert channel, you get around 35% of the packets, which are decodable, but you can also get with a quite good RTL-SDR or the nice iridium patch antenna. And as the pager message channel is a little bit stronger, you get even like 50% of all the messages on the paging channel, just with your batch and the onboard antenna. So by now, you just load the software onto your PC, you attach the radio batch, and you can start receiving iridium pager messages or other kind of iridium messages. So happy hacking with that. And Zach later on is going to show you how to actually run the toolchain and get something out of that stuff. So I'll put you over to Zach, and he's going to talk a little bit more about the software. Yeah, about this picture, this is on a plane. You can even with the mobile Raspberry Pi version in a battery, receive anywhere in the world. So we're now going to talk about the software. This is also a quick rehash from the Congress talk. We tried to find stuff about the iridium information, and I think this slide is really, really great because it was on the internet without any... And it's marked as confidential, and it said iridium receiver is probably beyond the reach of all, but most are determined adversaries. I kind of like this. If I read something like this, I think, hmm, maybe I can do it. Yeah, this is the first packets we received on iridium where you can see the frequency shift as the satellite goes over your head.  And this is part of the reason why the iridium slide talks about difficulty receiving, because when the iridium was built like 20 years ago, it was difficult to capture this, but with software-defined radio, just say, okay, give me all the frequencies at once, and just in the received signal, search for the iridium afterwards. The lines with less incline, which are less steep, are satellites that are not going directly over you, but like the plane next to you over the horizon. Hello. Yeah, this is when we were decoding stuff. You do the DPSK or QPSK demodulation and get lots of bits, and you spend quite some time staring at it, and you see some areas where mostly one and mostly zero, but that didn't help us, and we spent quite a lot of time trying to find out how the information is encoded, and this was what last year took us, I think, three months to find out that a lot of documentation on the Internet we found spoke about a codec of K equals 7, rate is 3 fourths, forward error correcting code, which was all wrong. Hand-sending messages with different messages to ourselves, we finally found out at one point that it's not that code, but just de-scrambling, just put the bits in a different order, and then you started to see, in this case we sent ourselves a message consisting of piece, and you can kind of spot them at the bottom in the message, and there's some stuff in between, and that is supposedly a checksum, and the first checksum we tried, which fits the amount of bits it takes as a BCH checksum, which needs a generator polynomial, which is, in this case, a 12-digit binary number, which you can just brute-force and skip all the math, and find out that, yes, the need, this is a BCH checksum with 1897 as generator polynomial, and if you know what it's used, you find, we found one document on the Internet talking about this kind of checksum. So each 32 bits are divided into payload and checksum, and on the Congress we showed more about the bits, separate bits, but we are further on, and the final tool in our tool chain tries to decode these messages as much as possible. These are the pager channel messages decoded, like the first line is statistics, which time it was received, and with what confidence our decoder, and at what frequency it received it, and then you see the LOK means that the lead out, the pager channel messages have a fixed bit string at the end of the message, which tells you that the packet is complete and you received it correctly and that it was okay, then there is another fixed string, which tells you, okay, this is a message on the pager channel, and there's not much information in it, there's like the cell and the spot beam of the satellite that is actually sending it to you, and then there is an increasing number, which has to do with the latitude of the satellite, how high above the equator it is. We did not reverse the number to back to the value, but it's not that interesting. The stuff we found out since Congress is we successfully decoded the ring alert channel, which is partly similar to what GSM does. Some people from OsmoCon helped us very much with that, and it contains all the usual information, so which satellite it is, which cell it is, the position where the satellite currently is, like latitude and longitude, and the altitude, but I don't know which unit this is in, the satellites also transmit in every other packet the position where its spot beam supposedly hits the Earth, so you could just use an iridium receiver to know where on the Earth you are, because it sends you, hey, I think you are here if you receive this, and then this is a paging message which pages one iridium phone with a Timsy of whatever and tells it, okay, I have a message for you, this phone, and then this phone, this is not for a pager, this is for a phone, and the phone connects back to the satellite, it says, okay, I'm here, I'm listening, give me your message, and then the satellite sends the message on a much narrower beam directly to the phone, so you will see lots of paging messages, but you will only see messages for that phone if you're really close to it, and there's a not fully decoded other packet format which we call data frames, and the only thing we know is that there is a link control word which is quite similar to GSM, and we can decode and verify that, check some correctly, and the rest is still bits that have not been decoded. We were trying to do that when we got sidetracked with the radio project, so why I skipped this?  Basically, you just record the signal in your raw recording, you detect where your signal is, you cut it out into pieces, mix it down to the baseband, try the BPSK, QPSKW demodulation on it, get a bit stream, and then you need some parser decoder to make sense of all those bits to get the messages you saw in the previous slide. Just recording is depending on what kind of SDR you have, every SDR has some kind of command line utility to record streams. For the hacker, for the radio, you use the hacker transfer tool, if you have an RTL SDR, use that line, and the last thing is for us rps. We are all doing that to standard out in this case, because later on I'll show you the tool which just doesn't do it with temporary files, just do it in a pipe, so you just start it and at the end you get the messages that it just receives. The only interesting thing maybe is the USRP command line has a problem, because the USRP utility also writes some diagnostic messages to standard out and you need some file descriptor trickery to get rid of that. So the detector just searches the stream of samples from the SDR, it calculates a rough FFT each millisecond and tries to look at the FFT and says, okay, here is a signal, because the FFT is higher than the previous few samples, that code is all due to Schneider, and then it grabs that chunk of the signal and passes it on to the next utility. It also is able to detect that there is more than one peak at the same time and grab that chunk multiple times, so if there are two iridium signals at the same time at different frequencies, it can decode it that way. This is the sample picture. In the upper picture in the waterfall you see there are multiple signals at the same time. That's probably because you can see multiple satellites at the same time. If your setup is sensitive enough, you can see neighboring satellites also. And then the next utility, which grabs that, modulates it to the baseband and does a filtering step, so you have the signal clear in the middle and the other signals are on a lower level, so it can be decoded. That's the second utility, which uses a fine-grained FFT to find the exact start of the signal, because the other utilities further on really like to start at the signal start and don't have any noise in front of it, and mixes it down to the baseband. It also does something, which is in theory not necessary, it rotates the phase of the signal, so the signal also always starts at the same point in the phase space, which is if you use proper code for the demodulation it would not matter, but since I wrote it quickly it's necessary at this point. The demodulator is a homegrown QPSK demodulator, which just looks at the signal and tries to decode the signals. It also outputs a confidence rating for each signal, for each symbol it decodes, so at the end it can say, okay I think 99% of those symbols are correct, which is a good value, and if it starts to drop below 80%, you can probably just forget it and throw it away. All these utilities together, you don't have to call them by hand, you use the script called multi-processing, and it requires also the center frequency and the rate at which you recorded the samples, and then you need to tell it which format the samples are in, because the HACRF, the RTLSDR, and the USRP all use different types to represent the samples, the HACRF and RTLS use both 8 bits, but one uses signed and one uses unsigned. That doesn't really matter, but you need to do it correctly. And that outputs the bitstream of each packet it decodes. You could just pipe it to the next utility, the parser, which tries to make sense of the bits, but in reality you might want to just write it to a file so you can look at the bits multiple times if you want to see, oh, there was an interesting message, I want to look at it again. Yeah, so that's the parser, which does whatever we know, decodes whatever we already know about the protocol. If you want to add something about the protocol, you need to do it there. It has some special modes like dash O for output format message, which just parses the whole file for pager messages and tries to reassemble them because they are transmitted in parts of up to three parts and throws away all the others. There's also some statistics modes which tell you about the packet statistics and not decoding the rest. Yeah, so this is all the utilities. They're all in our GitHub repository. You can call them the two command lines to start the recording and to start the multiprocessing that I just showed you, will be in the readme file shortly after the talk because I had to change something there. I will add them there and then you can just use your radio, plug it in, start this command line and see what you get here. The timeline of our project was, we started about a year ago and it took us at least a month to find the signal in the FFT, so don't get, if you try to look at something in SDR, don't get discouraged too quickly if you can't even see the signal. We knew it had to be there and kept looking for it and our main problem was that it was so short and the radio, the FFT was too slow to reliably pick it up and then we spent quite some time finding the encoding and there was the talk. There was an OsmoCom Meetup in the end of March where we met some really nice people from OsmoCom and some of them helped us looking at more of the stuff. We spent quite some time trying to decode disassemble DSP chip which had parts of the Iridium firmware protocol implemented and I can tell you, looking at DSP disassembly is no fun. There's some kind of out-of-order execution that drives you mad and at May 1st some guy, what was his name? Dieter. Dieter? I'm Guy Dieter. I bought a RAKAL test set somewhere which is a test set to test Iridium handsets and we had a nice evening, a nice day playing with it, sending signals from an Iridium phone to the test set and back so we could get clean traces of the yard traffic and then look at the test set what it was supposed to send to the handset so we could decode the protocol just match it up and look for the point. He also looked at the firmware image of this thing and got even more information about the checksums for us which we are really grateful for that helped the decode process really fall on and I must admit since then we have kind of lingered a bit because we were busy with the radio which was totally secretly a project to get 4,500 Iridium receivers into the world we have some statistics about the pager messages same as in the congress the only changes, there was one guy in Germany who sent about 16% of all Iridium pager messages they stopped so if you now listen for pager messages you have to wait a bit longer because the amount of messages dropped by his share by 16% yeah, there's still more to do if anyone is interested in playing with it there's still more of the protocol to understand there's more services within the Iridium framework like short burst data and Rudix and some aircraft communication stuff which we haven't even touched yet that if anyone wants to join in we would be grateful there's still a lot to do there's a no that's I changed that slide, that's from congress I'm sorry the SDR workshop we do plan some kind of SDR workshop maybe later today but check the wiki for that we have some equipment if you want to play with SDR stuff like a network analyzer all the code is on GitHub check the link there's still there's a document called Iridium system specification which would answer a lot of our questions but it's restricted and we could not find it if anyone happens to come across this document we still want it and we will not ask questions and we have our GPG keys down there if you want to send it to us and that concludes my part of the talk but we have a live demo I want to just show you how easy it is to receive something and I have my my own badge with this Iridium antenna which Schneider bought where did you buy it? the G-Key some friendly person sold an SMA connector to my badge for me because I did not have time to do it and just a second where is it? I probably need a bigger font why doesn't this work? just use the command lines I showed you like get the hacker I need to turn it on first to get the samples and pipe it into there and then we start it and then hopefully the tent is not and then you can get your own signals so these are the first messages these are not decoded so I adjust the raw signals and I'm just writing it into a file we can use a second terminal window why? doesn't the resizing work on this desktop? really strange I think we were at F and that's we can grab out any error messages and these are whatever came down from the air which are just pager message channels telling the pagers that everything is okay and probably that no messages because you see all serials that no messages are there for any pagers currently going down did I have anything else? so this concludes our talk thank you we have some time for questions if you have any questions now would be the time okay if you have any questions go to the microphones ask your questions hello hello regarding finding very short signal bursts in the FFT have you tried a GR phosphor? no I have been told that I should try it but I did not at the time we started I did not know about it and at the moment I did not have the time to look into it but I was told it was very good for that you should try it you can see the carrier loading in LTE signals or stuff like that yes TNT did some very good work with GR phosphor it's a really great tool actually we have to thank a lot the OsmoCom guys TNT, Dieter, Horizon and Steve they are very helpful and a nice team I have to say I have to show you this nice antenna that Horizon built because the iridium is also circular polarized is a special made for iridium and I think it looks really nice and whoever was at the opening talk probably can think of a second use for this one some more questions your last chance to ask something be courageous come to the microphone about iridium then I hope you all have fun with that there is someone I have a very naive and trivial question because I do not know much about this satellite network so you told us there are 66 satellites up there what is their date of how many years they are supposed to exist basically how many could people use it in 10 years or 20 years what you presented here at the current point as far as I remember most of the satellites are actually past there we wanted to replace them date but as you maybe noticed that iridium went bank dropped some time a few years ago and got bought by some other company which is as far as I can tell the US Department of Defense and they have been talking about iridium next quite a lot which involves sending up new satellites to replace the failing ones but as far as I can tell they still have not sent up any new satellites but they are planning to replace them as they fail so if you look at some rendering of the satellites you see at least at one spot there are two satellites really close to each other which is because as far as we know both of the satellites have some kind of defect and they try to keep up the service by having two half functioning satellites next to each other so they are running out of satellites and have to replace them did that answer your question basically yes and so legally is it legal to use it you told it's DOD in the end but I mean do they care if people use it we are not using it we are just listening to it you can go out and buy a iridium phone and pay for it use it as a normal satellite phone that is of course legal I'm not sure if that was your question please make a new presentation with more interesting things at the congress right we skipped over some of the stuff because we assumed that maybe you already know that are you going to show even more stuff at the next congress? yeah we are planning to as we leave the camp but at least I am planning to look into more of the iridium stuff and if we find out more interesting stuff it will be presented at congress definitely excellent for iridium next they have been talking about it for a long time they are still talking about it and yeah we are still waiting for them to do anything about it it looks like they are doing some marketing PR and they simply want people to believe it's going to arrive like next year and next year and next year all the time as for internet usage you probably shouldn't spend too much time on it because it's really slow sorry it's really slow and pretty much no one uses it it's too slow to be used you get like a few kilobits per second so it's unusable for anything which is current okay it depends on your application if you want something which doesn't have a doesn't need a directional antenna the specific point in the sky works everywhere then iridium might be your choice or also it depends on there are bundling services where they bundle different channels together so you have a larger bandwidth and I guess it's more a question of the business model at that point and how you sell the stuff yeah definitely I simply meant that you might not see that many packets and you might be unable to reverse engineer them but it still might be interesting yeah definitely if you can there is data coming on oh please from the other side hi guys thank you for the great talk this might be a little bit of a naive question because I don't know anything about it but with the toolchain that you offer is it possible to read the iridium messages in clear text yes they are not encrypted okay so these are like these examples that you showed us in your live demo these are just normal these are just maintenance messages or informations to pages we did not show any page messages during this talk okay so basically I just have to wait a little bit more like longer so when a proper message occurs I can decode it right yes okay thanks guys please so now that you've distributed 4,000 iridium receivers to all the people here what is the mechanism by which we all set these up in our Hacker Spaces and you capture the majority of iridium traffic for the whole planet that's clearly the idea right you basically need an antenna and radio with an SMA connector and some computer to run the stuff on a Raspberry Pi 2 is just beefy enough to do it and are you going to be running something to collect all of these messages received from different locations I had put my email address on there if you send me an email we can coordinate we are really interested but we have not built a central collection thing yet because the radios are quite new we have one or two outposts but those are running manually at the point because with this many receivers distributed around the planet surely we could receive at least a large fraction so if you plan to set up like a receiver at your Hacker Space totally send us an email and we will coordinate the passing of the data and see what interesting things emerge in different regions of the world thank you please from this side hello, thank you very much now that we have all these badges that have a processor inside have you thought the idea of integrating your code here is it possible, does it have the processing power that's a good question so at that point you might be limited by the processing power on the badge to pick up or to pick up the little signals in a complete spectrum so what we do on the PC is number crunching the whole thing and just look at where is some activity and then just look at this part look at this part and obviously the original iridium receivers or pagers they track the satellites they track their frequency and they know exactly when to listen for them so if you create an algorithm to do that I'm pretty sure that the badge is powerful enough to be a stand-alone iridium pager thank you but not with the current tools please it's very clear that by basis of the iridium system they did not think about this being cracked at any point is there a realistic upgrade scenario for them that does not include replacing all hardware on earth the iridium pager system is kind of discontinued it's not that easy to get a new contract for an iridium pager they are kind of phasing it out there is the short burst data stuff it's much more complex and I suspect there might be some encryption on it we have not looked at it and modern pagers there are stand-alone things that do internet and paging stuff on it and they use short burst data for everything so they are migrating away from this but there are still a lot of pagers out there and I would still expect that any data transmitted over iridium is unencrypted unless the handset or the mobile terminal you are using is special and actually does some encryption but who knows okay thank you can I interject something if you want to play with your badges please if you look at the radio wiki you find the link to the contest which encourages you to try different things on your radio and run around to camp a little bit maybe after the sun goes down you just should all just look into it that's really fun I hope please I maybe can add a little bit of information that might help answer some of the previous questions regarding service life already behind their protected life cycles and since the leo system not the geo system unfortunately you can't replace them one by one we essentially have to replace the entire system next gen as correctly pointed out before is economically unfeasible at this point in time at least there is no commercial business case so the entire thing depends on whether the US DoD will fund it or not in the next in the very near future and at the moment it looks bad second you had the question about altitude from the numbers I've seen that should be the altitude in kilometers above the WGS 84 idealized earth model I think I tried this to plot this once and it did not completely match up but I don't really remember that should be around 780 kilometers the numbers had greater variation than I expected them to as the spears do of course fly higher or lower different topic and the last one was right data one of the previous guys here said correctly that hardly anyone uses the normal data service because it delivers only 2.4 kilowatt per second I just might add there are only two data services on the radios that are worth talking about at this point in time the merit team version where they use channel bundling to yield at least halfway acceptable data rates that you can use for anything if you have continuous stream of data and the other thing is of course SBD short burst data and that's really used for a lot of things especially flea tracking that I think would be something really interesting to look into for future research and about the aircraft traffic stuff we have to talk so the thing is that I mean you have to start somewhere and get some idea on how this stuff works and the protocol is working we started with pager messages I mean they are really the simplest thing to get into and they are quite strong and the further you look into such a system as iridium you get to know a little bit about more of its details and you start to make more sense about the stuff which made no sense before so you have to slowly go forward and poke a little bit around to see where you go and obviously interest is in SBD for sure and we will have to see where this will lead so if your question seems to be answered so if no one else wants to ask something or have a comment on it then I really would like to thank you guys for this excellent talk


And in entertainment news, Anthony Joshua has asked to snapchat a beggy pardon to advise the youth to shun a life of crime because it ends up catching up with them in the future. The professional boxer explained that his past criminal record keeps coming back to hunt him. He said that every time he enters the USA, he is spooked over and questioned because of his record. They proceeded to tell the youth to shun a life of crime because it will most likely catch up with them in the future.


Northern Clearing has numerous functions. We clear right-of-way for gas and oil industry, help clearing right-of-way for Electric companies, utility companies all over the United States. Being in right-of-way clearing, similar to logging, you know, we work with dangerous equipment. We want to make sure our employees know how to handle that equipment safely. Training is very important for our company. By utilizing WITC, we conducted logging standards training, Lockout Tagout, First Aid CPR. We partnered with them and are able to get a lot of our material through them, utilizing their instructors and then all of our employees and also get a transcript as a way to document training.  Our experience with WITC has been phenomenal. They've been there at all parts of the road for us, helping, improving our safety programs, our training and you know, it's very beneficial.


They are thropods in the sub-phylemphiloceratid. Almost all adult arachnids have eight legs, although the front pair of legs in some species has converted to a sensory function, while in other species, different appendages can grow large enough to take on the appearance of extra pairs of legs. The term is derived from the Greek word arachnid from the myth of the huge bristic human weaver arachnid who was turned into a spider. Spiders are the largest order in the class, which also includes scorpions, ticks, mites, harvestmen, and solofugets. Almost all extant arachnids are terrestrial, living mainly on land. However, some inhabit freshwater environments and, with the exception of the pelagic zone, marine environments as well. They comprise over 100,000 named species.


What is up Marble Squad, and welcome back to our channel. We have to be kind of quiet because today, we're going to both be trying to make our boyfriend's jellies in 24 hours.  So basically, I'm going to be affording with Zeus, I'll be affording with Connor, and I'm also going to take cute photos of myself and not include him or whatever, and I'm just going to make him jealous all day. So we're going to a Chicago auto show where it's like with cars and stuff. So I think it's a perfect day to just to vlog the day because I think we're just vlogging.

Say hi to the Marble Squad. What is up? Hi Marble Squad. I cannot wait to see Lambos and stuff. Lambos and stuff? Yeah, here's your car, right there. We're going to be at the Chicago auto show and it's going to be lit. I thought we'd vlog the day. But I got to finish off video first. So we'll be back in a bit. Yes. What is up, Zeus? Dang, you're rocking this camo in red. I think you're kind of rocking it better than Bill. What? Like, you honestly look really, really good in that. Wow, he's popping. And look at Connor. You kind of have some adjusting to do because you're not really killing it today. Stand next to me, bro. You guys look the exact same.  You're telling me that he looks better than me. I just feel like Zeus looks amazing. Get a quick look. I'm sorry. Look at the pants, though. You need to look at Zeus' style. $20, $90, that's the difference. But that doesn't matter. Zeus killed him. He's taller than you. You're shorter and stubbly. Like, your legs are kind of stubbly. Stubbly? Yeah. What? Yeah. This is stoked. Look, he's thick. Look at that. Are you kidding me?   I'm not really admiring you right now. I'm kind of admiring Zeus' look. Your counter looks fresh and clean. You want to do this perm? Stop.  But I don't think you could rock it as. I don't think you could rock it as good as Conor, though. Conor's perm is looking lit. I don't think you could rock it. I'm sorry, babe, but I personally feel like you need to one up your style because I don't really think it's that great. What is good, Marvel Squad? Welcome back to our channel. They were going to be vlogging. We are at McCormick Center in Chicago currently, where there are some cool freaking cars. We got Grace. We got Zeus. And we got Conor, but look at his style today.

Look at this brand new Corvette. Guys, this is my dream car right here. Conor, I can see me and you driving in this car. Really? Yeah, like me and you would look so fire in this car. Look fire. Don't you think me and Conor would look really good in this car? I think you, yeah, like a white one. I think we would look on me. I think a white one, right? Conor, let's buy it. Let's buy it together. Girl, you think I made a hundred? That reminds me of the new Camaro. This is actually in a year, I bet you. Fifty. Fifty? Sixty, yeah. The motor's fine. Well, this has to be a hundred. Look at that. No, they made it affordable. This is being new affordable. Look at that.  What's that? It's 58K. Whoa! There's another nice Corvette. Bill, can we buy a car, please? Yeah, we can actually do it tonight. Dude, with the... Please, let's buy a car. The hard top will come off. This is definitely Conor. You are so smart. Okay, why do they call Conor smart? Look, it's got red and cheese. Because he said in Florida and I'm like, that's awesome. That's perfect. I think it would look good in Florida. Zeus, how do you feel about this car? I would have rather got the other one. Me and you can ride this car. Me and you could drive this car together. Hey, me and you. No, me and Zeus. No. Me and Zeus. If I had that car, you'd tell me. You see what I'm riding. See, Bill? They're gonna be getting fit with it than you. I think you have some competition. I'm not gonna embarrass myself on here. Honestly, that's a track record that they're doing that. I think that's really attractive that they're trying to do work. Like, I don't know why. I just want guys to work out. I think that's even hotter. Okay, then I'll go work out. I'm gonna show off and do it right in front of me. He already looks good enough. He already looks good enough. Let's be honest. I think that these boys coming up are about to be looking fine. I don't know. I don't think he needs it. I just think that when guys like to work out and like to do stuff in front of me, I just think that's hot. You make it look so easy. I could never. Look at this guy. I know. My arms are like chicken legs. You've got to do better than Bill because you already know you're more fit than he is. That's okay. Look, he's got his Louis bag. You already know he's 10 times better than you, Bill. Let's go, Connor. Let's go. Woo! You already being Zeus. I know you can't do that. Come on, Connor. You're almost there. You could have done more. You could have done way better there. Come on. I don't know. I still think it was pretty hot. It was pretty hot. It was still pretty hot. Yeah, that was really hot. Zeus is about to even look hotter doing it. Get it, Zeus? Bill, I don't think you could beat that. Bill just knows he can't. Good job, Zeus.  Bill doesn't need it. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. You are not supported. This girl is more supported than you. I'm low-key embarrassed that my boyfriend can't do pull-ups. Just so you guys know I'm totally joking, Bill is attracted to us now. You should feel embarrassed. I'm not embarrassed. Stop. Why are you got a roof for these dudes? Because you're not going up there. I'm just being honest with the Marvel Squad. I don't think it's that attractive that you can't do all that. It's not that I can't do them. I didn't want to. Because I knew I wasn't going to get a lot. Hey, you do basketball.  He's in basketball. Wow, I'm shocked. I think Zeus can outbeat you. More than anyone. I'll beat you. Yeah, I'll beat you. Connor's got this, too. I know you got it. Do you think you're going to beat them in this game? No, I know I'm going to. I don't think you are going to. I know I'm going to beat them. Definitely about taking out them. Zeus, get it. I haven't tried to beat you. He's got it. What did you say, Bill? What did you say, Bill? Look at those arm muscles on Bill. No, Zeus has got the arm muscles. He's thick, too. He's booty. I think Zeus has got a bigger booty than Bill. I don't think so. He's more firm.  Get it, Bill. Get it, Bill. I mean, get it, Zeus. Who won? Zeus won? I knew it. No, it's Riggs. It's Riggs. It's definitely Riggs. Zeus, you're so good.   Here comes Connor and Justin. I'm sure Connor will beat Bill, too. I'm going to beat both of them off to beat them. Yeah, Connor. Get it. Connor's actually... Woo! Look at that shoe game. Oh my god, he's...  Zeus, you see the shoe game? You need to get it up. That's pretty sad, honestly. Like, look at it. He's talking about it. He gets a bonus round. Connor's getting a bonus round. Connor, you got a bonus round. Who won? 56? Dang! Connor Bobey. Connor's so good, he got a wristband. He wins a wristband today. Alright, baby girl. I'm going to be supportive of this girl because she's been unsupported from me all day. Yes, she has. Nice. How's he? Oh, there you go. Ooh. As long as you win, baby, that's all that matters. She was tanking them. 42? Ooh, what? That's my... She'd be me, dude. I used to play basketball, too. Dude, I'm telling you, that game that I played was rigged because I made more than mine. 42, I'm actually even proud of myself. Look at this. That is so bogus. Look at this truck. Oh my gosh. Do you see this thing? That's insane. This thing would run you over and not even notice. It'd be like a little pebble. That is absolutely crazy. Look, we're all drooling over it. No, it doesn't go on a road, bro. I mean, it could. It goes off-road, though.  You can drive it on the road. I know. Look at the red rims. Do you like this, Bill? This? Yeah. I bet you those rims each are over 300, 400 bucks each. Maybe 500. What? 5,000 a piece. What? Rim? 5,000? 5,000 of rim. Yeah, that's insane. Dude, imagine like... Wait, you said a 4GT, your dream car? Well, I like... Lamborghini's are my affordable dream car, like 250K. This is 500K. This is 500K. And it's a carbon fiber edition, so the whole car is 500K. Oh, this I can see being 500K.  I have ever seen. Ooh, wee! Look at this car. Wow. I want to ride it. That is beautiful. This is the sexiest car.  Ready to just... He knows sexiness.  You obviously don't know sexiness. That shit's sexy. God, there's freaking out over here. Connor, let's buy a car together. Want to get a Lambo? I don't know about all that. Bill, she's asking me to buy a car with her. What? I can just see me kind of looking good at this.  This is $400,000. You get that, Bill? We're going to get a car and you're in... That's kind of like a car. That's crazy, McLaren. God, look at those Lambo's up over there. It's 96K. Oh, wow. That's it. That's nice. Oh my God, Bill. It's got white interior. I like the wrap on this. I would do this car over the purple, every day. I'd get the drop top. There's the purple one. There's another one. Let's buy one, Bill. Let's get it. All right, guys. So really quick. We're trying to figure out how do you get into this car? Comment down below if you know the answer. There's no handles. There's no way. So comment down below if you can figure out a way to get into this car because we're going to go find out right now. So a little quick auto show run. We are leaving now. We saw Lamborghinis, McLaren, Bentley's and Rolls Royces. It was crazy. This girl over here freaking out the whole time. I know. She wants it so bad. Wait, what are you doing? Why are you hugging up on her? She's being weird.  You can't give her a hug. You can't give her a hug. You can't give her a hug like this. You can't give her a hug like that. She's like hugging me from behind. Because of random. Give me a hug. Me kind of gets to fool cars. You guys, you guys are hella weird.    That's not going on camera. He's just my best friend. Where are we off to? Trying to get food. We're going to go get some tacos at a taco place. Very expensive but it's very good. We'll see you there. Hi, where are we at? We're at a good Mexican place that I love. Yes. What's your favorite part of eating? Here. What's your favorite? No, like do you like tacos the best? What are you doing? What are you? Why did you just speak honor? I'm not being weird. Why did you just wait?   Can we have a fun video? Can we literally just have a fun video? I'm trying to give him a chance. Watch. That doesn't really bother me. Does that bother you? No. See, that was... I was just doing it out of friendly. It wasn't really me. And I was doing it out of friendly too. Okay, Bill, that was crossing the line. Thank you. That was crossing the line. No, you. Me? That's crossing the line. Oh, we're all sharing. See, it's not a big deal. We're all just sharing. Okay, I'm sorry for overreacting. You kind of did overreact. I'm sorry, why are you filming me now? It's a vlog. I'm not putting any of this in the video. Okay, fine. You're excited, except you didn't even know how to order your food. Oh, great. I'll be honest with you. It took this dude probably... Look, it took seven minutes to complete the order. Yeah, he didn't know if he wanted corn tortillas or what. I thought he said you want corn. It took all of us, the six other people here, five minutes for everyone, and it took you a separate seven. Just for yourself. I probably took just as long as everybody else did. Yes. Literally just got his food. It's already halfway gone. This is mine. Here's Bill. Here's Zeus. Great. I took a bite of mine. Ariana's and Justin's. That looks amazing. I'm so excited to eat. Guys, it's snowing outside. It looks so pretty. You got the camera. And we're going into Uber. Oh my God, it looks so pretty. Let me take a look at it. Wow, it does. What is up Marvel Squad? We just made it home after a long eventful day. It is currently snowing outside. I'll show you guys a little bit. It's so pretty. It's so pretty. I don't know if you can tell on camera, but it's snowing. It's kind of a gloomy day. Zeus and Grace are KO'd over here on the couch. But I don't think we showed you guys a little bit of the Airbnb. But yes, we're staying in Airbnb this week. Oh my gosh, we are tired. This day has been dragged on so long. Hey Zeus, do you want to go lay down and cuddle in the bed? Like just lay down. Like we can just lay down and relax. Right. Where's me and you? Stop. Yes, me and you right now. I'm like dead serious. Great. You don't want to just go relax though? Why not? I'd rather lay with you than Bill. Hey, come on. It's out of here. We're supposed to be vlogging. Why are you like bringing it down? Why does it matter? It's very relevant to what you're talking about. I just want to lay down. And I thought he's tired too. So I thought we could just go down into the bed in the room that we're staying in. Bill, I'm not trying to be rude or anything, but I just don't really want to lay with you. Lay with me. I'm talking about this whole day. What? I have something I have to tell you. No, let's finish the vlog. This whole day?  Yeah, this whole day we've been... Annoying me. I know. I've been trying to make you see how jealous I can make you in 24 hours. I also have to be hugging up on everybody. Oh my gosh. Hashtag Team Araya, Bill. Come on. Do you think that I would... I'm not going to come back with you? Come on. What about the cars and everything? You were doing this... That's why you were so at the basketball. You were rooting for Connor and him the whole time. That's why you're doing that? Yeah. I was trying to see how jealous I can make you. So I wasn't rooting for you. Okay. So deep down you were rooting for me? Yes, I was rooting for you in my heart. It's all that of the day. I literally got my mood down because then I lost towards Zeus. When we started vlogging, that makes sense because your total attitude just switched and you were aiming towards Connor and Zeus more than even me. I am exhausted. We had a really, really long day. I hope it was a good video. I really wanted to make a good vlog today. It was a vlog. I hope you guys enjoyed this video, at least the parts that I filmed because I was actually appreciating the cars. I was appreciating the cars too. I was filming everything. Oh yeah, that's true I guess. Silly. You could see in the background. It was vlogging. We were vlogging, but I was trying to make you jealous during the vlog. All right, Marvel Squad. So we're going to go take a nap and just relax. We will see you in the next video. But until then. Peace.


Dear Americans, we have a funny system here. It's called first past the post. We have 650 seats in the UK Parliament. We have an opportunity to vote for our local MP. Each constituency is fought over by the various different parties. The one who gets the most votes is the first past the post and gets the job. The person who gets to the magic number of seats, that is, constituencies in the UK, becomes the government. He tends to get one party that runs everything as a result of that. But they have to have a sufficiently strong majority. Winner takes all and it's not as good as the French.


Man, I didn't get the guard. Oh, I couldn't I couldn't guard cancel. That was why I was still under pressure from the tag out Yep Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. Oh My god How's it going everybody? Dato do it here with another round of Dragon Ball Fighter's rank matches and this time we are going back to Videl It has been a while since we played this character, but even with that being said I still think she's a incredibly fun the the pressure you get with the Dell is Wild We are just in it now. Oh Let me get that. Oh, well, I definitely forgot that. Oh Okay, we're blocking oh I'm also just now remembering that her reflect is that backstep thing. That's cool, too man, this character really is so like just Amid like a super disrespectful looking All right double overhead we can block that just fine Android 21's does have that low though So we got to look out for that. He has two absorbed abilities there. There's the one solar flare This is an Android 21 player by the way boys. This is what it's like Oh, man, I didn't get the guard. Oh, I couldn't I couldn't guard cancel. That was why I was still under pressure from the tag out Yep. Yep. Yep. Oh Okay, clearly this is going to be a different type of video than what I was first anticipating Yikes, all right, let's try to handle everything around the Android 21 There we go. How did you know what forget what I just said?  Anyway, nice use of the key blast. I was trying to get a sneaky one in myself Okay, we don't like Dragon rush. Yep. All right, so that's gonna be the end of Android 21 Luckily to One bar kill. I Hate myself Again another dragon rush. I am that was really scary. All right this time I'm definitely mashing heavy. Why does it it feels so weird to land with trunks after that? Maybe that's just a me thing that felt weird landing with trunks. Oh, I forgot you can go through that All right, well, we kind of let that one get away from us. Oh Double overhead couldn't block it getting bounced around but we're probably Now we're gonna be fine, but He's gonna take it. Yeah, he takes the hard knockdown. Okay, we'll live but the mix here is gonna be frightening Yep. Damn it. I'm always so worried about like it I'm always more worried with an overhead with Gil Han because then he could fast-fall and just instant hit me with that low So that's usually what I'm focused on Get the beam assist out of there Shrugs buddy. Can we drop the frames down? Oh, no. Wow. He almost jumped over me. Okay for frames Yikes, wow trunks is sick Just the flip stuff in the corner is what really gets me rile. I know it's not the most complex thing Nice vanish There we go. There we go. There we go catch him with one of those Why did I do why did I do? Oh good catch good catch? Whoa? Whoa? Whoa? Whoa? What was that and the lore thematic? Nice. I kind of sparking trunks is very scary very very scary Geez man if the kid this game is like so good I Would I understand if he doesn't rematch okay good I understand if he didn't want to because there was like there was some times where it just went up to five Nice nice nice nice challenge This is one of those games where I'm super focused. So sorry if I go quiet for too long Got him this Android 21 is so scared. No, please not the trunks. I think we both know this is the best character on the team. Oh Darn it Hopefully those assists don't start coming back just yet. Nah, we're good For at least a little while Never mind. Never mind get a hard knockdown Do we know I want to save spark, but I also want to save trunks We'll wake up reflect. Yeah, okay Close enough. Do I want the extra corner carry? Thank you No, I put myself in the corner Somebody help me teammates get up get up teammates.   No, come on All right. All right. Well in this case we do the blue the blue life is to I just I'm just so disappointed in myself That's now we're dead damn good rest in peace trunks you you serve your you serve your team well my man Can I get an F in the comments for trunks? Well, that was that's kind of risky of me. I kind of ran out did my thing Can and end up going too well. Oh Videl no, not the best time to life What the oh nice overhead that's gonna get me.  Oh What was that move again?  Yeah, you and me go on That is not whoa No, I really wanted to keep them in that quarter Just so happen. I hit one too many. You know, let me get that beam assist back actually Too high too high and I didn't click lights afterwards Okay, so we're dead. Oh Okay, he wants go to out this might be a last take Yeah, never mind. All right, we're still dead one of the last ones Piccolo with sparking. Can we do it though? Beams are a plenty. No beams. No beams allowed lock that if you manage to jump in It's a hmm. All right. This the 1v1 is still gonna be pretty difficult though Go home with sparking. Oh No, we have to spark right away now if we live All right, we will it Park up how unfortunate is that by the way? Oh, no, are we dead? Yikes, we're looking pretty damn dead This is not. Yeah, we're we're super dead. I was not healing us as fast as I thought it would be Yeah, we're dead go 10 came out added on that little bit of extra damage Go 10 is actually just a random chance by the way 50% chance go 10 comes out. That's not true No, that's not true people like I was like really I've never even I've never seen go to knock them out nice makes Fantastic makes even that got her So that's the class. Oh, let's go No, don't drop it Dragon rush, you know, we got to keep that dragon rush on deck understandable understandable No, I tried to backstep. We are so dead that early spark was probably a genius idea One that I wish I had done I Wish I was genius enough to do that. All right. Well, we're in another bad spot. It lost a character super early No The slide picked up go through but not in the manner we needed. All right I did not do a lot of damage. I'm probably still gonna spark Really she didn't block. She just reflected and then instantly. Okay. I mean that was the proper thing to do because I was about a I was about a trunks mix Let me do the trunks mix. I'm dead. Yep. I was too far away and the piccolo assist was not close enough Is that not an ability she has to absorb now that she can do that whenever I've noticed that yeah I'd get me if I had a lot Because our abilities are one use now, right? Okay piccolo.  I Definitely am going for Shenron. I need to bring back a character For the ultimate power, but at this point probably a character. No if I got that was it Damage another hard knockdown by Bad situation, I'm not gonna wake up and jab That was not the brightest idea But I figured you know like if I did get a hit that could have been a momentum Turner Now that now that one was just a head turner as in everybody's turning their heads to Get some laughs in to one-to-one write. That's one game to one one. Lauren Unless I'm missing I might have lost I might have lost the game and blocked it out of my met reads you get sliding for this no but it's pretty damn close to overheads you never see it coming I think we early spark it's a good thing we didn't though because if it we are spark you would already be God I got a down tech there that's the mistake I'm making a lot let me free no tech oh no I tried jumping tried jumping not good not good not good at all and we he gets the kill Android 21 puts on that damn nice this is this is a tough set dude tough set to be a part of alright let's go let's let's buckle down at least land mission complete boys pick a low I can't believe it I personally it cannot believe it I didn't even think about that that one felt personal that one felt a little personal not gonna lie space is feeling a little violated come on dude alright well this will kill but not the cleanest not the cleanest at all and we lost parking for that we're a little closer to bridging the gap damn god damn why does piccolo have such great range wake up into just the medium caught me slipping I'm trying to down tech a lot more that was interesting that was an interesting one we're just going out in the trunks with a little bit of blue health I'm trying to preserve oh catch him all right that heavy got us a got worked out thankfully we were fast enough with the beam because his coming I mean I would have beat that out no problem that was sick that was really clean oh wait admire his play later let's focus on the now no oh wow that kind of hit a little bullshit to me but whatever I mean I didn't see the superdash oh big hit oh wow it's looking come out oh what a miss what a whiff what a huge ginormous whiff down level three get off of get your I'm trying to buy as much time as possible oh wait let's just wipe them off dude this is the most powerful level three let's go he took a tag boom we take it that's not how where I thought this game was going for sure that's not where I thought this game was going but I'll take it good results rematch this is the see it feels like this recording has been going on for a long time for it to be to one but is it I don't know have these really been long games I have not been feeling it get them off me say a man I stuck at a leg damn it see the fast fall gets me fast fall is like such a good move such a good tool I guess not really a move but yeah what are you doing that was an interesting choice by me for sure but you know I'm an interesting man I like to do interesting things like I could lose piccolo damn dude that's a that's a goody get down to the ground let me see it go on oh don't like okay really wasn't that my turn oh the down heavy didn't work maybe I should have sparked to try to get a better that's you for one deal yeah yeah maybe I should have I just kind of was in the heat of the moment I went silent my brain was working overtime no but I should have done his key blast EX spin yeah yeah I tried to random level three I try to hit it raw oh bacious all right Vidal save me that's all I need from you save me Vidal well I got the reads and the level three oh bad all right bad start Vidal that start yeah level three I feel like this is a pretty easy read to I don't know what you could do because I'm not too familiar with Android 21 but that's the case I'm just gonna do what I gotta do pretty basic thought the lag might have got me there but we're good you and me go on you can superdash through go on okay make sense he technically is a key blast no it wasn't supposed to be a normal level three okay oh don't the final like cake now we have a lot of work a lot of ground to cover gotcha I tried I tried doing the counter level three I tried to say a man of a one does hit all right so that might have been I don't know if he just won the set there or if he or if he just tied it up two-to-two we're gonna rematch anyway if he if you okay good so we'll say it's two to two but obviously you guys know what it actually is no the grab I'm so slow on reacting to that all right now you're now your beam assist is gone how's that feel yeah yeah how's the beam assist looking now huh and we get a little bit of the blue health back we did some gimmicky stuff there by the way please hit please hit please hit oh it barely did I saw the superdash coming dude damn why is this piccolo's round all of a sudden where'd you get this from piccolo I think we ex this year that's it that was the game that was a weird ending honestly I don't know what to say about that one piccolo just kind of did the damn thing cape magic cape on as a that was a really good set though thank you to my opponent for sticking with me I know our connection got up there in frames but a ton of fun say your Android 21 is literally nuts but I gotta go ahead and get out of here thank you so much to everybody watching hopefully you guys enjoyed the video if you did let me know your thoughts down

There we go. Ready and play. Good. Yes. Lovely. Yes. Good. And find me. Very good. Yes. Very good. Lovely. That. Well done. High five for that. Other high. That's what I'm talking about. Now we're going to do the same thing with your left foot. So now we start on that side. Now I will be on this side waiting for the pass for you. So now when you pass it to the board, shoulder check and we turn the opposite way. Ready and play. Let's see. Good. Great touches. Lovely. That. And we open the other way. We open the other way. So on this one and just watch when I pass it to the board here and I shoulder check now over that shoulder and I open this away. Okay. Go ahead. Ready and play. Good. Yes. Good touches. Nice. Shoulder checks. Open the other way. Very good. There you go. That's all right. That's all right. Now remember, let's get over here. Come over here. All right. So pass it to the board and when you open, all right, you receive with your left, your back foot. And now we spin over here. Okay. Do it right here. Go ahead. All right. Play the pass. Good. There you go. Now you know how the turn goes. Ready and play. Two more. And go. Good touches. Good. Very nice. Good. Way to adjust. Good. Yes. Very good. Love that. Great little touch of the outside. Play. Two more. Good. Yes. Good. Lovely. Yes. Yes. Fantastic. Last one. Last one. Make it good. Way to comfortable. Yes. Lucky. Fix it. Good. Back in with your left foot. Lovely that. Way to adjust. Yes. Great. Turn. Fantastic job. Very good. Very good. All right. Next one we'll do. We're going to start working with both feet. Okay. We're going to start on this side, but you're going to start with your right foot. Okay. So we're going to go right foot only, right foot only.  Now left, out, in, out, in, pass. Yeah. Now when you pass now, what I want to do is we're going to be shoulder checking as well. We pass, shoulder check, in, out, and then we pass. So the turn all we do when we pass it, we do an inside, outside exchange to turn. Do you have it? All right. Give it a try. Go ahead. One, two, one, two, one, two, pass. Very good. In, out. Very good. Lovely. Very good. Two more. You can start on either side. It doesn't matter. You can mix and match. Okay. Good. And play. Good. In, out. Oh, there you go. Unlucky. So now if it goes to your left foot, do it with your left foot. Not a big deal, right?  Okay. Now start on this side. Go ahead. Good. One, two, one, two, one, two. Very good. Now we turn. One, two, with the same foot, right? So on this one over here, as soon as we pass it, same foot. In, out, with the same foot. Okay. Go ahead. Very nice. Lovely. Good. Good. Same foot. In, out. There you go. Very good. Nice. Now two more on this one. Don't be shy. Pass it hard to the board. Okay. Go ahead. Good. Good. Good. Yes. One, two. Yes. Well done. Very good. Last one. One more. Lovely. One, two, one, two, one, two. Good adjustment. Good. One, two. There you go. Very nice. Very nice. Good job. Very good. Now let's get over here. If we can, I want you to try to work on this. We're going to add a little hop into the movement. So look, when I pass it, and I'm going to get a touch of the inside, I'm going to hop that way, and then I'm going to go this way. So look at what I do. Ah, very good. So go. One, two. See that little hop that I did there? Okay. So as the ball's going, and it's coming, I hop, and then I shift. Okay. Can you show me and try to do that? Very good. Yeah. Beautiful. Now you know exactly what we're looking for. Can we do three of them? Okay. Let's see it. All right. Three of them. Very good on that hop. Let's see it. Good. Good. Good. Focus on the hop. There you go. Beautiful. That was great. Very, very good round. Go ahead and again. Show me. Good. Two. One, two. One, two. Fantastic. On the hop. Oh, there you go. Good fix. Good fix. There you go. Good. And last one. Make it a good one. Make it a good one. Two. One, two. One, two. Good hop. One, two. Yes. Well done. Very good. Now let's try to do the same thing. Now pass it to the ball with your left foot. Let's try to do a little hop with our left foot now. Go ahead. One, two. One, two. One, two. That's great. Yes. One. Oh, the other way. So now when we're doing it with our left, we're facing the woods over there. Okay. Yes. Class. Now that's what I'm too strong. Hurts. Play. One, two. One, two. One, two. Very nice. Good. Focus on the hop. Yes. Very good. Not that much of a hop on that one, but the touches were great. Okay. Focus on the hop on this next one. Go ahead. Good. Fantastic. Good. One, two. Class. Are you fast? Okay. Last one. If you get this one, I do one push-up. If you miss it, you do one push-up meal. Do I have to do it? Yeah.


I wish I had known these four things when I first became a Christian. Number one, you'll still be tempted. But James 4-7 says this, submit yourself to God, therefore, resist the devil and he will flee from you. Number two, your emotions won't always line up with reality. Just because he feels far away doesn't mean that that's true. I need to hold strong to his promises despite how I feel. Number three, that it's not just about deciding to follow Jesus once, but daily. And Jesus said, if anyone would come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily and follow me. And number four, it's not on us to try to stay saved by following Jesus perfectly because we can't. We are saved by his grace, not our ability to be a perfect disciple. What are some things that you wish you knew when you first became a Christian?


Hey everybody, this is Brian and welcome to the 42nd Lamp Tutorial. Today we're going to be discussing comparing classes. Well, I didn't want to waste your time writing out this code, so let's just examine it real quick. We have two classes, a cat class and a dog class.  Now, cats don't bark. Dogs don't meow. My daughter would argue otherwise she says that cats do bark. You can look it up on Google. I just don't care. Okay, so for this tutorial, just do it my way. Now we have an instance of the cat class, an instance of the dog class. It's all fine and dandy until we want to do something like this. And let's actually say, we're making an assumption here. What we're doing in the do meow function is we're assuming that this variable is an instance of the cat class. So what happens if we call out do meow with my cat? As you guessed, it works just fine. But let's say we goof up and we accidentally throw a dog in there. Nothing happens. Well, we have no idea why that didn't work. Now we're stuck going, well, what is the my dog? Is it a dog? Is it a cat? Is it this? Is it that? So what we need is to actually compare the objects. So first thing we're going to do is say, if is object, we're just going to echo out. So we want to know if this is an object or not. So let's run this again. So we know it is an object, but now we want to know what type of object it is. Remember that PHP is a typeless language, meaning a variable could be anything. You don't declare a type when you actually make a variable. You just say, this is a variable, assign it a value. It's called a typeless language. So what we're going to say now is, that's called t for type equal, get class. Because every object is an instance of a class. And then we're going to echo the type. So we see it as a dog class, but we want a cat class. So then we're going to say, very simply, now I do some function, please use the cat class. Else, we're just going to, you guessed it. So as we can see, when we run this again, it says it is an object, it's a dog, and it is an invalid use of function, please use the cat class. Well, let's examine this real quick. We're saying do meow, we're making the assumption this is a specific type. Is object, this is going to return true because, well, it is an object. If not, it's just going to say, not an object. So if we try throwing an integer into this, let's actually try that. Integer, not an object, because an integer is not an object. So if it is an object, then we know it is an object, and we get the type through the get class. We're echoing out that type, and then we're saying, if the type is equal to, we're looking for the cat class, then do the meow function. Otherwise, it's an invalid use of the function. So let's switch this to my cat, and let's make sure this whole thing works. It is an object, cat, and meow. So as you can see, the whole thing just works. Very important when you get into typeless language is doing type checking. When you used a typed language like C++, Java, C sharp, something like that, you have type checking automatically built into the language, but when you're using a typeless language like PHP, Python, et cetera, et cetera, you don't assign a type, you just assign a value. So it's up to you to do the type checking at runtime. That's all for this tutorial. I hope you found this educational and entertaining, and thank you for watching.


Hey everybody, this is Brian. If you're following along in our HTML series, this is video 14. Today we're going to be talking about comments. So what are comments and how can they help you? If you look at this code, you'll see that this is the exact same code from our last tutorial, the table in a table. But you notice how it's very unreadable. It's hard for you to kind of pick through here and see what you're looking at.  Well, that's what comments do. Comments allow you to easily break things up. I'm going to make a comment real quick here. It's just a less than symbol with an exclamation mark, three dashes, space, three dashes, and a greater than symbol. And inside these dashes, you can say anything you want. Now, let's say if you work, flip back to your page, refresh. Notice how it's not in your page at all, but actually in the code, it's right above where this word header is. It's a comment. This may be a new thing for some of you guys, but some of you programmers out there will know exactly what I mean. A comment is a way of leaving yourself a note. For example, end of header. And we'll just put start of header. Save your work. Flip back over your page, refresh. Once again, it doesn't appear anywhere. It's just a comment for you. So you can kind of tell yourself where you are, what's going on, what this section really means. A lot of times, programs will use comments to really define certain areas of a page. They'll look for specific markers or comments. Now, when you look at this code, you can look through and just focus on your comments to see what's going on here. You can see, you know, this is the start of the header. This is the end of the header. What's this? Oh, this is the start of the body. This is the end of the body. So I'm not going to go through and do the rest, but you get the point. Comments are helpful, and they not only help you. They help anybody else who's going through. For example, if you get hired to do a web page and you do a lot of code, you should comment it. If somebody else has to go in and modify it, they don't have to pick through hundreds and hundreds of lines of code trying to figure out exactly what's going on. So I hope you found this video educational and entertaining. And if you have any questions or comments, just drop me a line. Thanks.


Hello, I'm Colonel John Gordon, and this is Fort Bragg, North Carolina, anytime, any day, any week, any season. In the 82nd Airborne Division is continuous, hard, and demanding. It has to be to build strength and stamina, this training that develops each trooper's confidence in himself and his ability to function with discipline and control in any situation. It teaches him the many military skills that make the Airborne Trooper a formidable fighting man. Combat ready on the ground and in the air. This endless, high pressure training keeps the 82nd Airborne in top-notch condition for battle. As part of the United States Strike Command, it is prepared to move out swiftly by airdrops or air landing to trouble spots anywhere on Earth. The 82nd is proud to call itself Always Combat Ready. All the way, the slogan that expresses the fighting spirit of this great division, but perhaps the slogan that best describes the pride and patriotism of the 82nd is the one given it officially in 1917 because it was composed of fighting men from every state in the Union, All American. The 82nd started as an infantry division, and Sergeant Alvin Newark was with the All American Division, also a major named Jonathan Wainwright, destined for greatness as a general in World War II. At war's end, the All American Division was demobilized. Came alive again in 1942 when it was reactivated as an infantry division under General Omar Bradley. When Matthew Ridgway took command later that year, the 82nd became the Army's first airborne division. From the start, airborne training was rugged, ran some more. They jumped and climbed. There were calisthenics, rifle range, shoot school, glider loading, practice jumps, crash landings. It was continuous from Fort Benning, Georgia to the sands of North Africa. The men of the 82nd were learning what it meant to be really combat ready. It was when the first mission was announced in July, 1943.  But it dropped into Sicily behind enemy lines, ahead of an Allied invasion that was coming in by sea. Men of the 82nd advanced 150 miles in six days. The German and Italian defenders were roughing, but not without hard fighting. The Sicilian campaign was the first combat proof that American airborne doctrine was valid. The fighting quality of its paratroopers was made dramatically clear. Jump came soon after it. The Allies had landed at Salerno on the Italian mainland, but the bridgehead was in trouble, so the 82nd went in. The Germans, some of Hitler's best troops fought savagely with everything they had. It wasn't enough. They were beaten back. On October 1, 1943, Naples was liberated. Men of the 82nd led the way in, but they had little time for the victory celebration, as elements of the division fought at the Anzio beachhead. They pursued the Germans into the Appennine Mountains. They had to fight mud and exhaustion as well as rocky heights. Spearheading the 5th Army's advance, they finally joined the British 8th Army at Mount Samucro, and the 82nd was relieved and sent to England. This was their first real breathing spell since Sicily. No one really believed it would last for long, but it was nice while it lasted. The placements began pouring in, and intensive training was resumed. The biggest jump of all was coming up into frats, to smash the walls of Hitler's fortress Europe. Once again, they were going in ahead of the ground forces. The 82nd Airborne, the new 101st American Airborne, and the British 6th Airborne. The German Army was taken by surprise, but not completely. They had scattered paratroopers all over Normandy. Fighting became a confused mealy of small unit action. The troopers struck out hard and captured St. Mary's at Gliese, a key point in the Nazi defenses and the first town to be liberated in France. It was a slow process, had the bleed for every town, field, and hit room. The 82nd fought for 33 days without relief for reinforcements. The enemy wished they had it. Of the 13,000 men who jumped into Normandy, only 5,000 were still on their feet when the 82nd was sent back to England to rest and rebuild the outfield. Almost as bad an ordeal was the Battle of the Bulge, when Hitler's Panzer divisions cracked the Allied line in Belgium. The 82nd was called on to hold the northern shoulder of the Bulge. Not only were they outgunned and outnumbered, they were freezing. Like their fellow paratroopers of 101st at Bastogne, the men of the 82nd threw back one desperate attack after another. Finally, the Nazi drive was played out. Airborne soldiers stayed on the ground now to race across Germany, scooping up a fantastic number of prisoners, including the entire 21st German Army, 145,000 men. It was an inglorious end to Hitler's dream of a thousand-year right. And a triumphant war's end for the 82nd, which was chosen by General Eisenhower to act as American Honor Guard in Berlin. But best of all was the victory parade down New York's Fifth Avenue, led by General Gavin in January of 1946, when the All-American Division came home to be welcomed by an All-American audience. Unlike the aftermath of World War I, there was no deactivation for the 82nd this time. Instead, it was made a regular army division, and it worked at it, mastering new techniques and equipment. Peacetime training and maneuvers were almost as rugged as World War II. A series of large-scale field exercises made sure that the 82nd lived up to its reputation of always being combat ready. There was some disappointment at not being called out to help in Korea, but that almost totally mountainous country made the use of airborne troops impractical. Always among the first to be trained in new fighting techniques, the division learned how to cope with a nuclear environment using simulated nuclear weapons. These training exercises ranged from coast to coast and as far north as Alaska, where the paratroopers were drilled in cold weather jumping and tactical maneuvers. Then they were exposed to the tropical heat of the canal zone and Vieques Island in the Caribbean. For the 82nd being combat ready meant being fully prepared to fight in any location on Earth. Real combat seemed close in 1962. The All-Americans were set to go all the way during the Cuban Missile Crisis in October. The 82nd stayed on full alert until the threat of war was over. However, another alert three and a half years later did result in the 82nd being under fire again. Late in April of 1965, the 82nd airborne as part of the Army's strike command received emergency orders to deploy into the revolt-torn Dominican Republic. The 82nd led the way as the advanced guard of an inter-American peace force fielded by the OAS, the Organization of American States. Anti-communist Dominicans were on hand to greet them with warm support. But the troopers soon learned that not all the local citizens were friendly when they undertook their first mission. This was to secure the east bank of the Azama River and the Duarte Bridge that crossed it. The airborne soldiers promptly came under sniper fire from rebels holding commanding positions on the other bank. It was a baptism of fire for most of the young troopers, but they took it with the cool competence of veterans. They crossed the bridge and penetrated Santa Domingo where they set up a network of outposts and checkpoints to contain the rebel sector. Nonetheless, rebel fire was heavy throughout May and into June. The airborne soldiers moved swiftly and expertly to knock out snipers. The 82nd was under strict orders not to take the offensive since negotiations with the rebels were underway. Discipline remained firm despite harassing rebel fire that wounded many civilians, innocent bystanders who were swiftly evacuated to field hospitals where they received the same care given to the wounded paratroopers. The 82nd's task was eased considerably when troop contingents arrived from Latin American countries who were members of the Organization of American States. An inter-American jeep patrol toured the city until peace negotiations were successfully concluded on the 31st of August. Then the 82nd was promptly redeployed home. Back at Fort Bragg, the 82nd picked up where it had left dock. More airborne training and maneuvers to keep the division's skill and air drops razor sharp and to make sure its air-landing capabilities were up to the minute. Realistic battle exercises, they worked out with the Sheridan, an armored reconnaissance airborne assault vehicle. It's a formidable addition to the 82nd's firepower. It can be air-dropped as well as air-landed to support initial waves of paratroopers with heavy firepower. It has a 152-millimeter main gun and a guided missile, the Sheleli. When the Vietnam conflict came, the men of the 82nd promptly went into the field to practice the tactics of counter-guerrilla warfare. Enemy forces were simulated by their own men using guerrilla tactics of hit-and-run. However, their line of retreat was scouted by helicopter. The home base of the guerrilla force was pinpointed. This was a Viet Cong style village, a typical guerrilla strong point. The encircling paratroopers received the word to close in. The guerrillas put up a last-ditch resistance, but the airborne soldiers quickly overran the village and began a roundup of prisoners. Some of the guerrillas tried to get away through an exact replica of a Viet Cong escape tunnel. Even though the mock battle had been won, the note of battlefield realism remained as hiding places and booby traps were cleared. Rugged field training under realistic conditions, the 82nd's formula for being always combat-ready. Early in 1968, the All-Americans were called upon to put this counterinsurgency expertise to use in battle. The Third Brigade was sent to South Vietnam during the Communist Tet Offensive. General Creighton W. Abrams was there to greet them when they arrived. The Third Brigade troopers moved to the Highlands and set up their base camp. They dug in. They might move, but they weren't about to be moved. Bunkers were built, firing positions sandbagged. 4.2-inch mortars were set up. Automatic weapons were cleaned and checked. With swift, smooth professionalism, the All-Americans built a defense perimeter to secure their base camp. Then its attack force was ordered, along with the troopers of the 101st Airborne, to move toward the ancient city of Huey. Enemy forces were trying to support communist troops holed up in the city. They were to be stopped. Their positions saturated with heavy concentrations of artillery and automatic weapons. Helicopter gunships swept in with rockets and machine guns. Then the Airborne troops closed with the enemy in a vicious firefight that raged through the day and night. Next morning, the beaten enemy withdrew. Now a troop's occupied the ground. The enemy's bunkers had been smashed to rubble, but our soldiers, trained to take nothing for granted, carefully searched the debris for guerrillas holed up to make a suicide stand. But the Viet Cong really were gone, except for those who had been killed or captured. The performance of the Third Brigade was outstanding. Remained in Vietnam as an independent unit until late 1969. The 82nd Airborne already has a fully trained new brigade, the fourth to replace the third. They continue to train tirelessly to raise their high state of combat readiness a notch higher. To make its superb fighting men tougher, smarter, deadlier soldiers, its schools are busy developing small unit leaders, training specialists in old and new military skills. This is the Raiders School, the 82nd adaptation of the famed Ranger Corps at Fort Benning. Its carefully chosen students are taught how to live off the land, to endure hardship and fatigue, thirst and hunger. They must be able to carry out patrols in difficult country to bring back intelligence information or prisoners, so they are taught to overcome any kind of natural obstacle. Training also means they must learn to handle a wide variety of demolitions, expertly, safely, effectively. Training for long-range reconnaissance patrols is an extension of the Raiders School. Here, students get even more intensive training in how to operate undetected deep in enemy territory, to remain there for days, even weeks, to gather intelligence about the enemy and bring it back. For tent strap, make sure it is secure and then cover it. In the Advanced Airborne School, a group learns how to function in the role of jump master. The instructor is teaching them how to conduct the safety check of paratroopers' jump equipment. The safety of the men under his command is a jump master's paramount concern. Obviously, it is a matter of life or death that all hooks, straps and lines are properly in place. This concern for every detail of safety carries over to the interior of the jump aircraft. The instructor shows how the jump master must check out everything, every inch of the anchor line cable, the fire extinguisher. It has to be there, filled and up to pressure. From end to end of the big troop compartment, the jump master's job is to make sure, personally, right down to the jump lights by the door. The students also learn the jump procedures and voice commands that control and direct the paratroopers until the final moment when they'll step out the door and be on their own. In the Advanced Airborne School, students also study air movement operation in terms of equipment. The 82nd trains its own specialists in the techniques of loading and securing cargo for air landing operations. They also learn how to rig heavy objects for airdrop, the Longshoreman's skill refined to the nth degree. In the supply and maintenance school, student officers learn how to calculate supply requirements for different size units and how to systematically inspect fighting equipment to make sure it's always ready to go. The 82nd's non-commissioned officer school puts the focus on small unit leadership. The NCO is a basic and vital element in any unit's chain of command. In this school, his natural leadership potential is honed and polished. In the 82nd Airborne, the competitive spirit is encouraged by an intensive sports program. It is justly proud of its Olympic medal winners. Sergeant James Wallington, who brought back a bronze medal for boxing. Sergeant Wallington is equally skilled in his job as a member of the division's highly effective and fully air portable communications network. And there's Captain Mel Pender, gold medal winner in the 400 meter relay. Captain Pender's main interest, however, remains his professional mission as an officer of the 82nd. But perhaps no sports so truly represents the airborne as the freefall parachuting of the 82nd Sport Parachute Club. Schools and recreation programs, work and play, all directed to the end of keeping the 82nd tuned to perfect pitch in order to carry out its mission as the airborne arm of strike command. These men starting out on a typical training maneuver are known as an immediate ready force. The IRF could be a company, battalion or brigade in many combinations of firepower according to the need. Whatever and wherever the need, these men are ready to respond. Each one superbly trained, strongly disciplined, ready. When they move, they move fast. The complex paperwork of personnel and cargo lists is handled with lightning speed by computerized equipment. This ability to pick up and go far, fast and fully armed was dramatically demonstrated in 1969 exercise called Focus Retina. 2,500 troopers of the 82nd were deployed from the United States to Korea in a matter of hours. The entire exercise took only five days and involved more than 7,000 troops of the United States and South Korea. This is the 82nd Airborne Division, fearless among fighting units. Its history is long and famous, crowded with great battles and inspiring deeds of valor. But its story is far from over. You will surely hear from it again when a call comes to defend this country's freedom. The division will always be in the forefront of battle, and beyond all doubt will prove again, over and over if necessary, that in fighting skill, courage and devotion to duty, the men of the 82nd are indomitable. They are all American, all the way.


They say that money can't buy happiness, but what if we could spend our way out of the problem of aging? The creators of a new cryptocurrency that dedicates a portion of each transaction to fund life-enhancing science and technology want to make it possible to do just that. Find out more in this episode of Lifespan News. The cryptocurrency, which is being billed as a research and charity-oriented token, is known as Transhuman Coin or THC. This THC branding is also the reason behind the green color on the website. The coin was created with the goal of enhancing human life through science and technology. It seeks to accomplish this by redistributing 2% of every Transhuman Coin transaction to coin holders, including the Transhuman Charity Fund wallet. According to the white paper, this wallet will be managed directly by a scientific advisory board and will fund research into longevity, age reversal, AI, and other life enhancement technologies. Transhuman Coin co-founder Peter Zeng says that the Transhuman Fund wallet will donate to projects which increase our healthy human lifespans, enhance our intelligence, and improve our well-being. Peter is a member of the Faculty of Singularity University, is the co-founder of Transhumanism Australia, and works on technology, markets, and growth initiatives at KPMG. He co-founded Transhuman Coin alongside Charles Owuzzi of South Africa, an entrepreneur described as a biochemist and cybersecurity expert. The 2% of every transaction redistributed to coin holders in the Transhuman Charity Fund isn't the only bit taken out. An additional 2% of every transaction is sent to the liquidity pool, and yet another 2% is sent to the marketing wallet to fund promotional campaigns and buybacks. They say that a major goal of the project is to build a research center to facilitate cross-disciplinary work between students and experts in science and technology. They hope the center will enhance research opportunities and solve real-world problems. Organizers plan to launch the center by 2023 and expect to decide upon its location in December 2021. In addition, the creators claim that top THC holders will be able to nominate organizations for donations or investments, after which, a community poll will decide which organizations ultimately receive the money. They also say that these donations and investments will be live-streamed and recorded for transparency purposes, and that they will be regularly audited by external auditors. Charles Owuzzi adds that they are using the power of cryptocurrencies to fund human enhancement technologies that can positively impact us all. Research into age reversal and longevity is proving increasingly promising and that is exciting to be supporting initiatives Transhumancoin is currently listed on PancakeSwap and Coinsbit. The creators have donated 10 million coins to Lifespan.io, the non-profit organization behind Lifespan News, to support our work. Lifespan.io also accepts THC donations, alongside numerous other cryptocurrencies, on our donations page at lifespan.io forward slash donate. So will Transhumancoin live up to their lofty goals? I guess time will tell, but I think the general idea is a good one and I'm excited to see that they are expressing a commitment to transparency. Either way, we'll be following the developments and we'll be sure to keep you updated, so please subscribe so you don't miss out. I'm Ryan O'Shea and we'll see you next time on Lifespan News. What do you think? Will you be buying Transhumancoin? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
