Welcome back to the YouTube channel, it's your favorite village boy Mr. Gainababy and I'm back again with another video from South Sudan. I know you all have missed me and you all are expecting new videos from Somalia and Somalia. Wait for it, I will definitely be bang with bangus, just chill but you know what, I still got videos from South Sudan and I have to realize that we've been so busy working so hard to bring you guys fresh content but hey, the main reason why I went to South Sudan was to promote small businesses in South Sudan. You know South Sudan is actually a young country so the people in that country who have started business are just young so all businesses in South Sudan are definitely small businesses and I was so impressed to see what young people are doing to change the narratives of their own country so hey, do me a favor, like the video, share and subscribe as we talk to the youngest CEA who decided to establish the Shebaara business in the country. If I didn't come to this country, I would think that it's only Ghana that makes Shebaara. Well now you know better, I also thought that in the first place. Really? Yeah, but we do have plenty of Shebaara and plenty of Shea trees. It's just that sometimes the preparation styles differ. Oh okay, so like you make everything in here? Yes, from scratch. All we do is to import, I mean bring the nuts from the lakes region, which is where we get our names. But is it also in South Sudan? Yes, in South Sudan. Yes, the lakes region is in Bahar Ghazal so where the Nile crosses South Sudan and then we bring everything here and do the production all the way here. Wow, who are the people who does the production? Well currently I use the wives of soldiers because in South Sudan wives are usually housewives. And their husbands are the ones that usually work and salaries don't always come. So now in this area soldiers live here so I just use their wives and bring in the little storage facilities here. Oh, not inspirational but let me know, my name is Maya, you never told me your name. My name is Estella. Estella, born and raised in Jeba? Yes, no, not born and raised in Jeba, I was born here and then moved to East Africa of course during the crisis. So I moved to East Africa, did part of my education in East Africa and then moved on to my bachelor in Malaysia and then my master's in China and then I came back here. You went to China? Yeah I did. I was also based in China, you know that? Yeah. You speak Chinese? No. Basic Chinese like Ni Hao, how to get some food, that's pretty much it. And why you have to come back here, you should have stayed in Malaysia or China? Well first of all this is home, there's no feeling like just being home. I remember that whenever I'd come back from either China or Malaysia, there's that feeling at the airport that you feel like I'm going to go back home because when I'd come back I don't necessarily come directly to South Sudan because we don't have flights that come in here. I would come to maybe Uganda or Kenya and then transit. But that feeling of being in Africa and just being home was amazing and I don't think there's anything that meets that. It really inspired you to start a shea butter company in here. So aside from me using the shea butter myself, because previously I used to get it from Northern Uganda and I used to take it to school with me and whenever it would finish I would just send for more. And then I came back here and one time I asked my grandfather to smell the shea butter that I had and he said this was shea butter. But then I had seen it here before, the difference was in preparation styles. The one that they used to prepare here, they would darken, roast too much and then it would become dark. And even the smell was a bit too much to use on your skin. And so I had some looked on YouTube and then I was able to see how it was prepared. I got one lady at that time that was able to do the pounding and the grinding for me and then they got out some oil for me and it was perfect. So I started using it myself, I'd give it to my friends as gifts, my family as gifts and then slowly when I saw that everybody, I mean people slowly liked it and then we moved on to producing it at Ladsgate. So which means you really defined the use of shea butter in Sassida? I think I did, I think I did. Because now we have a bunch of companies that are actually dealing in shea butter. I'm not sure if they produce here but I know that there's people that are actually into shea butter now. I mean can you take us around a little bit where you keep your nuts and stuff? Yes, yes, yes. So this is our little village, I don't know if it works well as the village you used to, but this is our little village. So partly the women leave in some of these to-colds, we call them to-colds. And then this is our working space. So this is our working space and this is the machine that we use for- Oh okay, you are even making the work easier. Yes, because before they used to pound and grind, we do have the motor in there, they used to pound and grind but then it's too much work and they also do not produce so much in a day. So when the demand grew, we saw it was better for them to have a machine because then they are able to produce efficiently without being tired the whole day. So yeah, that's pretty much it. So come with me. This is right here. So because the space is a little small and we're a growing little company, we saw our water here and then we just used the space for most of the work. Here are the nuts. So these are nuts that have sort of already been sorted and dried and we just keep them here. They have a very good shelf life so we don't have to worry about whether or not they're going to get spoiled. As long as it's properly dried, then it's fine. Now these are the nuts that have not yet been shelled. This is the process before you get to this. So this is the seed that's inside the fruit. When you get the fruit, it's green. Then you eat the fruit, then this comes out. This is dried and then shelled because if you can see there is... So if you hit this a little bit, I'll just maybe do. So from that, that's the nut that is this. We have a share fruit. Yes, there's a fruit. It's green in color. We don't have it here because they also have a very low shelf life. As soon as it's plucked from the tree, you must almost eat it instantly. If you don't, then it doesn't last long. Yeah, a lot. But is it difficult to get this nut in here? No, actually no. Because God has blessed us, they grow by themselves. You don't have to water them, nobody plants them, they just grow. So they mainly grow in South Sudan, they mainly grow in the lakes region, which is around here, and in some parts of the equatoria. But I source this from the lakes. Yeah, and then so we store partly the nuts here and also some of our produce here. Now the way that this structure is made, the mud, because South Sudan is hot, it helps us keep the butter in shape. Because if you put it outside right now, it could literally melt. I'll just take you through. You can even tell that this has been produced a while ago, but because of the heat, you can tell that it's... If you can look here, the oil is coming up because of the heat. Can I touch it? Yeah, now this came from a fridge. So you can see that it's a bit harder than that that was solidified naturally. So it's all good. Yeah, so then we move from here, we have the preparation. So this is mainly like the storage room, where we keep stuff, we keep our utensils. And then the women do the preparation outside because of the heat of the fire. We'd rather they stay and cook in a place that they can get some air conditioning. Yeah, so this machine, because of the way that it works, if you can tell, it has already made holes. So this cannot be put inside because of its movement. And also it needs to constantly be watered so that it stays cool and it's able to do the production easily. So yeah, this is chill spot and the cooking area. Yeah, now we have some of the butter, some of the nuts that have been roasted and grinded. Now, these are ready to be put into the boiling process, which is where you get to extract the oils. To boil them. Yeah, you have to boil the pest in order to get the oils out. How long? Oh, it takes about an hour, an hour, 30 minutes for the oil to start coming on top. And then you can already start putting. Dinariket, come back to the kitchen. Bye. I help you. Okay. Yes, so the water has to be really hot. It has to be really boiled. Then they'll start putting in the paste. And you can see we basically use sticks because we want something longer because once it starts boiling, it starts to, what is it called, do they call it bubbling? Yeah. I don't know, it starts to bubble up and yeah, like that. And then it could easily get on the skin. So they'll do that for another hour or so until the oils start coming on top. Yeah, once the oils come on top, it's ready to be cooked. Let's see if it's ready. Can I check it out? Yes, I can. This is so hot, like. It is, it is. So just imagine if we had to produce this inside. Yeah. Yeah, it would be crazy. You actually create an employment. Yes, I would love to think that that's what I do. So here, here we have eight women because first we started with two, about two women and then we moved on to eight women because the demand was slowly growing. The locals were slowly trying to understand the importance of sheer butter and all the benefits that it has. So we moved on to eight women here, but we have about 32 women in the lakes region that actually do the collection of the mats and then we go ship them in here. So now from that, once the oil has, you know, come to the top, the contents that go to the bottom, the residue basically goes to the bottom and this is what the oil looks like. Is this sheer butter oil? Yeah, this is sheer butter oil. When it's hot, there's something about sheer butter oil. When it's hot, it's a bit darkish. Once it cools down because there's still residue that gets to the bottom, then it clears out. It becomes. It starts from red to yellow. Yes, yes. Once it's solidified, it becomes yellow. Is it like they make shabbat at the northern part of Ghana? I've never seen one before. This is my first time seeing this in South Sudan. I look like a villager, man. You're probably in a village that doesn't produce it. Yeah, but that's pretty much it. So we do have a storage on the other side where we do the final packaging and the production and we'll probably go there. Now this we put some hot because we put it in the fridge. So it's solidified and it became hard that you could not scoop it. We put some hot oil on it too, yeah. How did you sell this? This we sell at 4500, which should be the equivalent of $8. You ship it abroad? We haven't started shipping abroad, but we're working on that currently because we're now dealing with our standards. Getting the document from the Bureau of Standards, once we get that, we'll be able to ship it out. That's it. Yes. Yeah. So that is in the lemongrass flavor. Everything is made here. Yes. The only thing that we get from abroad is the packaging because obviously we do not have factories in South Sudan yet that are able to produce for us such packages. And do you think it's worth it to invest in such business? More than you can imagine. First and foremost, the satisfaction that comes from knowing that you're changing lives, you know, even if in a small scale, but you're changing lives somehow because these are people that are used to being housewives if they're able to make the little for themselves. When a woman makes money, most of it goes back to the family. So, yeah, I feel like it is, it's perfect and we could do better. If you can, maybe you can just have a look at it quickly. You can already see the oils are coming to the top. Already? Yeah. If you can, maybe let's just get a scoop. It's like a peanut butter. Yes, it becomes like a peanut butter. So you can see that what's on top is the oils. Besides the residue, now that's what gets off once it's cooled down. The oil has already started coming. We haven't even been 30 minutes into the cooking. But the longer it takes, the more the oils are maximized. But they have to constantly keep stirring because if they don't stop, you have to be very careful. Be very careful because... Yeah, it's very hot. Yeah. So they have to constantly stir it because if they don't stop, are you going to... I was afraid for your mouth. So they constantly stir it because if they don't, then it holds the fire. And obviously, you've set producing butter that smells burnt. I mean, what was the major challenge establishing this here in Thassida? Well, now for me, the major challenge was the finances because I financed this individually. So it became a bit complicated. If my pocket is empty, then I cannot facilitate this. The other would be in regards to the logistics, bringing the nuts from the lake states all the way till here because sometimes in the rainy season, the roads are flooded. It makes it almost very difficult that when I have to transport them, I have to pay double the price or triple the price that I would use to get the nuts. So yeah, that's one of the challenges. But other than that, I think it's been smooth because, first of all, these women are used to doing the work anyway. They're used to making the shea butter. So it's not a new thing for them. It's not a new thing. It's just the technique that's different from what they're used to making. Yeah, but that's pretty much it. Yeah, even reducing stress, you know, because they used to pound everything with... Yes, yes, I actually haven't showed you the mortar, but they used to use the stone. When we were in Murkaka... So they used to use the stone to grind. The stone? Yeah. Now, that's how they do it locally. So this has replaced the stones and the... the... I think it's called the mortar and pestle. Here we call it dong and this is Murkaka. What does it mean? Yeah, that's the mortar. So we haven't used it in almost forever. They used to grind it manually. Yeah, they used to grind it manually. So just imagine the amount of time that they need to be able to produce shea butter. So before, when they used to manually do the process, they used to take... I think they'd produce about 10 litres in a day. 10 litres after working the whole day. But now they're able to produce about 20-40 litres in a day because we do not want to... to produce... Yeah, it's okay, give me this one. Just see, this is the kind of thing that you put it in. What do you have, Babas? Wow. So to take the whole day to just... We don't have to do it in the morning. So there is a technique that we use to make here when the women are making. Because if you make alone, your hands get tired fast. But then they have a technique where... Can you... I think we have to show you first. Please, what's the flow? So when you do two people, you're not maximising too much of energy on one person and you're speeding the process. They usually do faster than that, but... Go. They transfer it to this place. Yeah, from here, where's the place? Give way to them. From here, because this doesn't do... Yeah, it doesn't grind. It doesn't grind it to be fine. And when it's not finely grinded... No, that is still very much. Yeah, it's still very much. You're supposed to take some time grinding. Yeah, pounding it. And then... When do I get it? Personally. Then they put the paste here and start to grind it. Yeah. After that, they still move on to the process. So the oils are coming. We're starting to maximise the oils now. You can already... Let me ask you. Yeah, yes. We've got so many South Sudanese that live in the diaspora. Yes. That... I feel like it's time for them to come back and be part of the chain that we're looking for on the continent. Yeah. If you have a message for them, what would that message be? I would say that first of all, we are a country that is blessed with a vast number of resources, of natural resources. And there's so much that we can do with it. We cannot all do white-collar jobs. I mean, there's too much for us to do that is not involved in the office because you're creating employment, even for people that are not so educated. And yeah, bringing good for the country. So there's so much that we can do. We should just change our mindset of thinking that everything involves is around the office. And definitely you have a message for younger Africans. Yes. For younger Africans, as Africans, we should stop glorifying the idea that everything good comes from out because we have so many things in here that... I mean, most of the West gets stuff from here. Like, we export Sheba to most of these European countries. Exactly. So there's too much that we can do here to benefit ourselves and also do the greater good for our nation, our continent as a whole. I want to say thank you so much for talking to me, but I think I need to do this to help you. I know you don't export right now, but can it be a favor because I have a whole army who are willing, I don't think, to even be able to produce if they ask you for Sheba. If the demand is there, we can definitely produce. We have too many women. So will you, like, do me a favor, send us how do people find you so that they'll be able to reach out to you? So our social media handles are Aram... Aram underscore where? I think you'll have to write that. Aram underscore where? On both Instagram, Facebook and Twitter. You can just find us there. And we're working on our website as well. It's Aramware.sheabutter. All right. I want to say thank you so much for talking to me. Thank you for coming. And thank you for, you know, being around. Hey, the iron is not hot yet. Hi, guys.


Item Number – SCP-388 Object Class – Euclid Special Containment Procedures – SCP-388 is to be kept in a locked safe in a room guarded by at least two armed guards, instructed to refuse access to any unauthorized personnel. Use of lethal force is permitted to this end. Once undergoing experimentation, SCP-388 is to remain outside the influence of any other SCPs demonstrating properties capable of modifying physical laws or drawing energy from unknown sources. Description – SCP-388 consists of a foldable nylon frisbee of the type commonly given away as promotional material, in this case, bearing the logo of the banana boat's Santan Lotion Corporation. SCP-388 appears to be immune to damage. During testing, it has been able to withstand high caliber rifle shots, immersion in high acidity baths, and sustained temperatures of 3,500 degrees Celsius. In all cases, it would spring back, unharmed, to its original shape. X-ray crystallography reveals the molecular structure of SCP-388 to be completely normal nylon, supported by a ring of metal appearing to be aluminum. SCP-388 was discovered after witnesses in a local news report in the town of Rue claimed a power line was downed by a UFO. Agents embedded with maintenance crews investigated, and found the concrete pole was sliced cleanly, with no tool marks, prompting full investigation status. Initial records obtained from NORAD revealed no abnormalities, as data expunged, typically associated with data expunged. The investigation was nearly terminated, until agents posing as reporters interviewed the Rue family, originally questioned in the news report, and their child mentioned the entire incident as being caused by a frisbee. Initially skeptical, efforts were nonetheless taken to verify this claim, with initial confirmation made on data expunged. A full week of helicopter searches of a neighboring city, and numerous retrievals of unremarkable frisbees from rooftops eventually yielded results. Unfortunately, Agent B was fatally dismembered by SCP-388 when Agent B threw the object down from the roof. Under the guise of replacing a septic tank, SCP-388 was dug up from its resting place 5.5 meters below the yard, and carefully brought in for containment. SCP-388 when thrown by a human, appears to travel as a normal frisbee wood for a distance of approximately 3 meters. After this distance, SCP-388 immediately begins glowing bright white, and accelerates until its velocity reaches approximately 0.5 meters per second. SCP-388 will proceed to cleanly slice through all intervening matter, regardless of consistency, until eventually coming to rest. Current theory holds that it loses speed due to friction between its top and bottom surfaces, and the weight of material pressing down on it as it passes through objects. SCP-388 does not differentiate between matter, and test subjects assigned to catch it. Addendum Inquiries into the potential use of SCP-388 as a weapon have been declined, in light of the obvious difficulty of retrieving it after its first throw. Item Number SCP-387 Object Class Safe Special Containment Procedures Due to the nature of this object and the almost non-existent harm it poses, it is stationed in a storage container in Site-19, with a standard lock. The red tub in which SCP-387 is contained does not possess any unusual properties itself, as has been determined through testing, but SCP-387 will not duplicate itself unless at least a layer of it covers the bottom of the aforementioned container. A sheet is available for those wishing to utilize SCP-387, and access will be revoked if it is not properly restored. Description SCP-387 is a tub of commercially available Lego, normal in design. Irregular shapes not featured in normal sets, such as circular wheels and prisms, are also available. It has no brand name, and every company interviewed by undercover agents thus far has denied ever making irregular Lego. When the tub is not full, i.e. when it is partially or almost fully emptied, the Lego will slowly duplicate themselves, stopping when the container is full. The interesting property of SCP-387 is that, when constructed by a human hand, see Addendum 387D, the constructions will animate themselves, performing activities based on their surroundings. For example, if a Lego man, which is a man constructed using the provided humanoid parts, is placed within a car, it will begin to drive it. Further experimentation has revealed that the car, and indeed any complex machine, needs no internal engine or power source. The Lego people have some form of sentience, as they interact with each other quite readily. If left over time, the constructed people in buildings will evolve. They will take on occupations based on the buildings around them. For example, some people will become firemen and use fire trucks if the corresponding objects are there. They will also use SCP-387 to construct more things to expand their society. Humans can interact with them quite peacefully, but if a human becomes hostile to them, they will immediately cease all activity and become inanimate. SCP-387 was found in February of 2001 by Agent H. During a long train ride back to the city he lived in, Agent H idly constructed a man from SCP-387, which was in the seat beside him at the time. Several seconds later, it became animated. Agent H quickly disassembled the man and delivered the item to Site-19 for analysis, where it now remains. The security tapes from the train were confiscated and destroyed before they could be reviewed. Additional information SCP-387 should not be given to children under the age of 10, especially if the aforementioned children are influenced by cartoons and television shows. Experiment 387A A small community of SCP-387 is formed in a testing chamber. A plane constructed from normal Lego was placed to the side of the community. Over the next three hours, the following changes were observed. Several Lego men procured some equipment from SCP-387, heading over towards the plane. With incredible efficiency, the Lego men constructed what was, for all intents and purposes, a working airport. The specific pieces having been supplied by SCP-387 without visible signal. A petrol tank zoomed over to said plane, apparently filled it with fuel, despite earlier observations that vehicles constructed from SCP-387 do not require fuel, and the plane proceeded to literally take off, flying around the room at low speeds and altitude, seemingly to avoid crashing. More planes of different make and design were formed soon after. Addendum 3871 Judging by this, I'd say that constructions of SCP-387 have some form of understanding of the surrounding environment, and they are able to convert existing Lego to 387. Dr. Arch Experiment 387B Several young children were given SCP-387, and were given instructions to use their imagination. The children, who had their memories of this experiment removed, began constructing various objects. After having noticed that they were animate, they excitedly conferred, and began building several objects that they intended to use in battling each other. These included a transformer, an M1 Abrams tank, and several expunged. The children were instantly removed, at which point, the creations began to fire, and eventually destroyed each other, though not after considerable effort. Addendum 3872 How the f*** did these children gain knowledge of the workings of an M1 Abrams tank? No less, expunged.  I am not recommending an upgrade to Euclid, as the constructions did not fire whilst in the presence of humans. This has been tested with adults, and proved just as correct. Dr. Arch Experiment 387C The red tub that contains SCP-387 is emptied of Lego. Commercially available Lego is then placed in the tub for a minute. Constructed objects are inanimate, and remain so. SCP-387 replaced. It is noted that the Lego placed within the tub also did not duplicate itself. Experiment 387C2 A single block of SCP-387 is placed within the red tub. It does not replicate. More of SCP-387 is added until the bottom layer is covered, at which point, it began to replicate itself quite rapidly, until it had been filled. The amount of SCP-387 removed from the tub continued to work. Similarly, when an amount of SCP-387 higher than the tub's capacity was placed upon the tub, it shrank until the red tub was fully filled. Addendum 3873 It appears that the red tub itself has no abilities by itself, but SCP-387 will not duplicate itself unless in that particular tub. Perhaps this is a copyright mechanism that stops copies of 387 being made. Further experimentation needed. Dr. Arch Experiment 387D A robotic arm was used to construct a car out of 387. It did not animate. This test was repeated with a human hand, at which point, the car animated as usual. A dead hand from a recently dismembered agent was used, to no response. The hand was then heated, which still provoked no response. Addendum 3874 It appears that 387 responds to a pulse, or some other detection of human life. Dr. Arch Addendum 3875 This SCP has been in high demand for extended use, as further testing has revealed no more anomalies or features. In the personnel tested, SCP-387 has improved morale and attitude by 87%. People are really kids at heart here. As such, I'm recommending that all personnel be given free access for recreational use. Dr. Arch Request approved Experiment 387E Once a normal community of 387 was constructed, a small mound of megablocks, a common copy of Lego, was placed near the community. When this happened, everything constructed of 387 stopped moving, turned slowly towards the megablocks, and expunged. Addendum 3876 Jesus f***ing Christ Dr. Arch Item number SCP-365 Object Class Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-365 is to be kept in its testing pool at all times. The door to the pool is to be locked and guarded by one security guard. Experiment requests must be approved by a level 3 researcher. Description SCP-365 is a green pool noodle, made of polyethylene foam. By itself, it displays no unusual properties, and is physically identical to a typical noodle of similar size. SCP-365's unusual properties manifest only when it is placed in a body of water. When a subject completely submerges in said body of water, they become unable to get out. Subjects report a sense of dread, and describe themselves in an infinite sea, swimming endlessly in a direction and finding only more water. It is important to note that to outside observers, the subject simply seems to be flailing in place. The only way to remove a submerged person from the water is to remove SCP-365, negating its effects. All other methods of rescue have failed. Cables and ropes have exhibited an unnatural resistance, and snapped. Drainage systems have failed, and human intervention has led to data expunged. Addendum 365-1 SCP-365 was discovered in one day undisclosed. Retrieval personnel found it at the RIP public pool, along with the bodies of several civilians. Because SCP-365's properties were unknown at the time, agents lost their lives. SCP-365 was eventually found and removed from the pool, and carbon monoxide from an improperly maintained water heater was used as a cover story. Addendum 365-2 On date undisclosed, researcher W.A. discovered that hallway 19 of storage site 23 was flooded. Said researcher noticed water leaking from SCP-365's storage locker at a rate of 5 liters per minute. She quickly notified Dr. W.A. who opened the locker to find SCP-365 producing water from its holes. SCP-365 was subsequently moved to its testing pool, whereupon the flow of water stopped. SCP-365's containment procedures have been changed accordingly. Item Number SCP-345 Object Class SAFE Special Containment Procedures SCP-345 is to be kept inside a secure vault, at site... Seeing as the object is inert by itself, no further containment is necessary. Personnel seeking to solve SCP-345 need the permission of one Level 2 personnel. SCP-345-1 is to be kept inside a 5 meter by 5 meter by 5 meter sealed room, on site... Following incident 345-1, personnel are only allowed to solve one of the six faces of SCP-345. Trying to solve all faces will result in reassignment to MTF-Epsilon-8. The Midwives Description SCP-345 is a stone cube, whose faces are each divided into nine squares of equal size, and sections of which can be rotated in a fashion similar to a common puzzle toy. Each face of the cube measures 5.7 centimeters. Instead of the normal six colors commonly found in this kind of puzzle, the squares represent six different materials. An intrusive magmatic rock resembling granite, an intrusive magmatic rock resembling gabbro, an extrusive magmatic rock resembling basalt, a sedimentary rock resembling sandstone, volcanic glass resembling obsidian, and a high-grade metamorphic rock resembling granite nice. SCP-345 can be opened by forcibly pulling its sides apart. The cube is hollow, possessing a circular cavity 4.5 centimeters in diameter in its center. If left open for five seconds, SCP-345 will automatically close and shuffle itself for two minutes. Afterward, it may be safely handled. Note that it will not be possible to force SCP-345 open after the shuffling takes place. Solving SCP-345 is no harder than solving the common versions of the puzzle. However, if one of the faces becomes complete, one of the following situations may occur. If the completed face represents one of the magmatic rocks, SCP-345 will heat up to approximately either 1500 degrees Celsius, gabbro face, 1200 degrees Celsius, basalt face, or 900 degrees Celsius, granite face. The amount of time SCP-345 takes to cool down also greatly varies, with the basalt face being the fastest, up to 50 minutes, and the gabbro face being the slowest, up to 250 days. If the completed face represents the sedimentary rock, the cube will start shaking violently for up to 10 hours. The sound of either water running or wind howling can be heard coming from inside SCP-345 during the whole process. If the completed face represents volcanic glass, SCP-345 will heat up to approximately 900 degrees Celsius, and will take up to five minutes to cool down. If the completed face represents the metamorphic rock, SCP-345 will suffer the same process that would happen if the granite face was completed. After cooling down, the cube will proceed to shuffle itself at high speeds, making loud grinding sounds while it does so, for up to 50 hours. After one of the processes is over, SCP-345 can be opened again, and a sculpture made of the same material that was represented by the completed face can be found inside of it. The small sculpture will always be of a planet or planetoid 4.5 centimeters in diameter. These sculptures do not resemble any currently known planet. If more than one face is completed at the same time, both corresponding processes will occur, one followed by the other. The statue created will be made of both materials. For instance, the sculpture created by completing the granite and obsidian faces at the same time had its continents made of granite and its oceans made of obsidian. SCP-345 was recovered by a foundation agent on date undisclosed, days after the eruption of the Red Volcano in Ecuador. Said agent claims to have found it near the base of the volcano, and took it as a curiosity. He learned about the true nature of the SCP after trying to solve it, suffering third degree burns in the process. Incident 345-1 On date undisclosed, while Dr. Red tested SCP-345, she managed to complete all faces by not opening the cube once a face was completed. SCP-345 proceeded to rumble for three minutes, after which it opened by itself. A small metal sphere, 4.5 centimeters in diameter, emerged from inside SCP-345 and hovered three meters from the ground. Shortly after, the sphere began rotating, accelerating to a rate of 5 meters a second. Strong gravitational forces were detected in the vicinity of the sphere, visibly affecting objects up to 15 meters away. Seconds later, a dense orange liquid with an average surface temperature of approximately 4,000 degrees Celsius began flowing from SCP-345, which proceeded to encompass the metal sphere. Afterward, another denser liquid began flowing out of SCP-345. It also proceeded to encircle the sphere. This liquid continued to flow from inside SCP-345 until the sphere reached a diameter of 2.3 meters, at which point the flow stopped, and SCP-345 automatically closed. The resulting sphere was still slowly spinning and hovering above the ground. It was extremely dense, and its gravitational pull was strong enough to severely damage its surroundings. The temperature at the surface varied between 900 and 1600 degrees Celsius. 30 minutes later, parts of the outermost magma began to cool down, solidifying into a thin rock crust. 20 hours later, most parts of the sphere were solid rock, with small seas of lava flowing between them. Little volcanoes and mountains could also be observed. At this point, a special containment team with heat-resistant equipment was moved in to relocate the sphere to a safer room. The sphere was later designated SCP-345-1. Studies regarding the probability of its eventual development of an atmosphere are underway. Note, although at first we thought that SCP-345 had created a copy of Earth, as of date undisclosed, studies have shown that it is unlikely that SCP-345-1 will develop an atmosphere, and the composition of its magma is very different from Earth's, containing far smaller quantities of silica and aluminum, and larger amounts of titanium. It is currently unknown if the magma of other planetoids created by SCP-345 would have a similar composition. Perhaps we should have a D-class completed, preferably on an open field. Dr. W. Item number SCP-309 Object Class Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-309 is currently stored in a secure glove box in the Level 2 Research Lab at Site- Routine physical examinations of SCP-309, as well as experiments involving small animals, may only be conducted using the glove box. Removal of SCP-309 from the glove box for testing on larger animals or humans requires the approval of Dr. W. or equivalent Level 4 Command Personnel. Human testing is restricted to D-class personnel. Description SCP-309 is a small plush stuffed animal that looks as if it has been turned completely inside out. Golden-orange fur is present along the seams, while a small amount of cotton stuffing and two protruding eyes are visible on the head. The interior of SCP-309 is understuffed with cotton, giving it a flexible and cuddly feel. SCP-309 has no effect on inanimate objects. However, contact with living subjects is both dangerous and life-threatening. Humans and animals lightly brushing SCP-309 with a finger or a similarly small portion of the body display severe, non-localized discomfort for tens of minutes afterward. Humans also report feeling extreme nausea, despite the fact that SCP-309 does not induce vomiting. The discomfort in nausea is so overwhelming that even the most hardened subjects have proven unable to voluntarily maintain contact with SCP-309 for longer than a few seconds. If SCP-309 is pressed firmly against a subject, or the subject quickly picks up SCP-309 in attempts to hold it, the subject will be violently and painfully turned inside out over the course of five to ten seconds. Skeletons are unaltered, but all soft tissues are inverted, such that muscles, tendons, ligaments, and various internal organs are resituated on the exterior of the body. Though not immediately fatal, the process is irreversible and universally considered painful. Lesson complete.

From Hollywood, it's time now for Edmund O'Brien as Johnny dollar, this is mr. Lavery at Washington life. Are you available for an assignment? Yes, I am a slavery fine You'll have to go to New Mexico little town near Gallup. That's all right. What's the case? We want to look into the death of a Merrill Kent It was generally accepted that his death was the result of an accident. He was buried a day before yesterday On that same day the police received information to the effect that he was murdered Well, this kind of thinking can be awkward. No, what's up? See I suppose Arranging one will be your first job. If the man was murdered we want to find out Edmund O'Brien in a transcribed adventure of the man with the action-pact expense account America's fabulous freelance insurance investigator yours truly Johnny dollar Expense account submitted by a special investigator Johnny dollar to home office Washingtonian life insurance company Hartford, Connecticut The following is an accounting of expenditures during my investigation of the Merrill Kent matter Expense account I don't want a hundred and forty five dollars transportation via air train and finally rented car From Hartford to Fort Scott, New Mexico, which is a small village where the law is attended by a deputy sheriff named York After I checked into a hotel.  Yeah. Yeah. Oh month ago I could have found out who made it just by asking the operator used to have their finger on everything in town But now we got a dial system now. I didn't recognize her voice because she was Tricking it up. What did she say? She called while the funeral was going on. Yeah, I understood that yeah She said something from the Bible and that she couldn't stay silent while the good man's body was being Submitted to the grave as she put it Then she said she wasn't sure enough to accuse anybody out in the open But that she thought mr. Tend had been murdered no more than that didn't she name anybody no no just hung up Isn't much to start from is it no You know, I knew Kent. He was a good horseman, but better ones have been killed the same way See the horse falls and the rider's foot slips through the stirrup then when the horse gets up He panics with this thing stuck there and dragging at him.  How do you know that now the way? He was blown when he got back to the ranch. He dragged Kent all the way home You know, but you don't know where it happened No, no Kent bit horses and was out all the time exercised them so it could have happened any place I just say the man had some hard luck He's dead and buried as far as I'm concerned. That should be the end of it Yeah, probably right the insurance company has a sizable investment to protect if they can They want to know top see so I guess we'll have to have one. How do you figure on working that out? I know the widow won't okay one and some survivor has to in this state.  No, but she's been through enough as it is. Why should I want to open it up again? You'd think she'd want to know if her husband was murdered and she doesn't know anything about the phone call She doesn't I didn't think was worth telling her about I'm afraid you'll have to be told but I'll spare you the trouble small town like this. I know it's tough That's right. It is Who is the doctor that was called the the one that signed the death certificate his name's Snyder? Thanks, where's his office? It's in his house down on Elm Street second Street just past the hotel. I'll find it Thanks again sheriff. Sorry. I have to stir things up. I'll do it as quietly as I can Right then I didn't know how to figure the sheriff It was fairly obvious that he didn't approve of what I was doing the time being I charged it off to the fact that No law officer enjoys the possibility that a crime might have gone unpunished right under his nose Dr. Hugo Snyder shingle on a white fence identified the address on Elm Street the side door led to his office waiting room I was met there by a woman and a nurse's uniform. How do you do dr. Snyder? Yes, but he's busy at the moment. Do you have an appointment? No, I don't I'm not a patient. I Well here I have to talk to him about something else. Here's my card Insurance investigation that's right Mr. Donner, please don't think me an overly inquisitive nurse. I'm Mrs. Snyder. Oh That does make a difference. I want to talk to him about a death. He attended a little while ago. Mr. Merrill Kent Mr. Kent. Yes, the company that held his life policy sent me. Oh, I see They think an investigation is needed as a chance. Yes, that's what I wanted to talk to the doctor about If I can see him now He's in the x-ray lab. I'll see if he can come out Yes, what is it? There's a gentleman here to see you. It's about Merrill Kent. What about him? Well, I don't know dear. He's an investigator from an insurance company. All right, I'll be right out. Hope you'll excuse me for being curious. Surely. Is it a usual thing in cases like this to have an investigation? Not exactly. It probably should be but unless something about a case seems to call for looking into nothing is done Dr. Snyder, this is Mr. Donner Yes You're an insurance investigator, Mr. Donner. He has a rare thing in Ford's car. I take it. Here's his car, dear Yes, I I don't understand why you're here. What is it about Merrill Kent? Well, it could be I'm on a fool's air and Dr. Snyder wouldn't be the first one But the day of Kent's funeral, Sheriff York got a phone call from somebody who hinted that his death wasn't accidental Well, that's ridiculous. Of course it was accidental. He was dragged to death by a horse and the first people to see him Were his wife and her brother who notified you, right? That's right. Harris phoned me and I went right out Now you as a doctor realize that you can't diagnose a patient's condition without examining and same thing goes for this situation I say that because I want you to understand that the things I'm gonna bring up are only Possibilities of course the symptoms I work on How long did it take you to get to the Kent ranch after you were called? No more than 15 minutes and Kent was dead when you got there. Yes, and probably had been for some time Where was the body when you first saw it near the corral? Harris had brought blankets out. I don't know what hopes he must have had that Kent was alive But he put blankets on the ground and won over him Then his foot wasn't stuck in the stirrup when you got there No, no, Harris had freed him as soon as he quit and you couldn't swear that his foot had ever been in the stirrup. Could you Good lord, mr. Dollar. I wait a minute doctor, please please. These are only possibilities Did you see his boot marks must have been left on it? Did you examine his ankle must have been bruised or wrenched? Of course, I didn't I wasn't concerned with his ankle or his boot Well, did anyone look at them? Sheriff York wasn't called in at all, was he? No, because it was a clear case of accident What about his hands and his arms and his clothes must have been torn as shreds I didn't notice he was covered from his shoulders down as I remember Well, who would have noticed what about the undertaker the body was taken to Leesburg that same evening the winery mortuary It's about 15 miles north of here Well, that's your examination doctor, but you tell me about it very little was necessary He died as a result of severe multiple fractures of the skull And I don't suppose you could tell which of these fractures was the fatal one. No, of course not or which was the first one Of course, I couldn't then he could have been hit on the head by somebody and then dragged by the horse couldn't he I signed a certificate to the effect that his death was accidental I firmly believe that it was now nobody doubts your sincerity doctor But you'll have to admit that since somebody has mentioned murder there are some angles that could stand looking into I tell you there aren't But what do you propose to do? We're going to order a nautopsy can't add a sister living in seattle. She's on her way here in case we need her authority to get one I want to thank you both and I hope I won't have to bother you again. Good day, mr. Dollar Hi chef Now you get along sound to tell you yet, but the doctor's death certificate could be full of holes How do you figure that starting against him? But he had to admit the cause of death didn't have to be accidental He said that yeah, so I want to find out everything I can about kent before I see the widow Assuming the possibility of murder for a minute can can you think of anybody that could have done it? No, no, I can't think of anybody How'd they get along in town? Was he well liked? Well, he didn't have much to do with the town He was away a lot the horse shows and sales things like that. How long would he be away on these trips? Why never kept tabs on that no reason to you take mrs. Kent with him Most often he didn't I'd say she seemed to be here pretty steady Do you have any idea how they got along? I wouldn't know anything about that never heard one way or another Where is the kent ranch sheriff? Well, you turn to the left at brian store. It's out five and a half mile. Thanks Oh, um, mr. Dollar. Yeah I know you think I'm acting kind of strange about this and Well, I guess I am These people are my friends and you grow close together in a place this size. I told you I understood that I guess I don't want any of them to turn out to be a killer Have you remembered something that you want to tell me? No, no, it's nothing like that. I wouldn't lie to you But it seems like you've got it in your mind that maxine kent might have had something to do with her husband dying I didn't say that Everybody likes her mr. Dollar loves her I guess is more like it. She was born here Now if you're gonna make it rough on her I'd watch my step about you Thanks for the advice sheriff The way you seem to feel I wonder that you reported that phone call at all I'd have expected the layout to be like the village and the other answers I passed Oh and badly cared for But the residence was chalk white with a tired roof and long shaded verandas Around it the grounds were well groomed and behind it were a few low white outbuildings A woman I assumed to be the widow was standing at the edge of the drive as I pulled up She was strikingly beautiful in her mid 20s with cold black hair and eyes A kind of slim almost bearish figure they write about The complexion and color prepared by the sun I could see why the town felt the way they did about it. Well, mr. Dollar Yeah, I seem to have been preceded by my infamy my brother's in town. He phoned me that you were on your way out He didn't tell me where he'd learned it, but I only told one man chef york. That isn't important. It really isn't They're all doing what they think is right They think they're helping me But I can realize that all I've done is give you more and more reason for suspicion Isn't that true so fine? Yes Come up on the veranda where we can sit down Then you can tell me what to do soon Hi a cheer. This is fine I made up my mind that I Wouldn't go to pieces, but if I do you'll have to forgive me How do I order an autopsy when everything In the funeral All that's needed is your signature mrs. Cantona form that says you're authorized one. I will It's the right thing to do. I'll do it Is that all as far as I'm concerned? Yes, the rest of it will be up to the county They'll ask if you suspect anyone. I don't I don't suspect anyone. They'll ask who you suspect of calling the police, but I don't suspect anyone Then it'll be up to the county's jury Signers can't I don't know if you can understand that that because of the phone call? I couldn't do anything but press this Don't understand I don't understand any of it, but I'll do what's right Unless there's something else I wish you'd go now The way from the ranch I would have given my salary and a lot more if I could have skirted the village and kept right I'm going I still wish I had the insurance company. That's right. Right sheriff york He's over doc sniders just phoned and said if he showed up to get right over there. Why mr. Snyder killed herself She left a letter She said she was the one who made the phone call that started this whole thing He will return you to yours truly johnny doller in just a moment Gangbusters shouldn't have relatives that would seem to be the moral of the exciting gangbusters case tonight Hear the case of the talkative boy in which a crook is corralled through telling testimony Furnished to san francisco police by his young nephew Don't miss gangbusters with another action packed story based on police records tonight On most of these same cbs radio stations Now with our star edmund o'brien.  Well, the doctor was in the office and he called for mrs. Snyder She didn't answer and he came out to look for her. He found her in there in the parlor She was dead on the couch The note what else did it say except that she was the one that phoned you? It's there on the table There's something about there was nothing behind it, but the false suspicion wrecking her life beyond repair I don't know it was kind of wandering What kind of false suspicion her husband and mrs. Ken? Looks that way Come on. We're born in you can read it yourself Where's the doctor? She's in his room Alone? Through here. Yeah, that's the way you want it It's mighty busted up over Have you reported the county yet? I called him as soon as I got here. There's no manner on the way I covered her up She never seemed like a person to kill herself The note was addressed to a woman may concern I won't attempt to quote it The main idea was that she had been driven upon sheriff york by a blind suspicion of her husband's feelings towards maxine kent Then when she learned these suspicions were groundless She realized that there was no longer any chance for happiness The closing words begged her husband's forgiveness and swore to his innocence Sheriff york would rather not go with me, but he guessed it would be all right if I talked to the doctor Yes, things haven't cleared up very quickly, haven't they? Oh, scott has accomplished a great deal Suppose I was being too objective I meant the two lives have been ruined since you arrived The wives of my own You didn't mean that I wrote Oh, no, of course you did Circumstance Circumstance that should have been entirely harmless not even now Just understand me and not defend see no reason to anymore Those circumstances drove your wife to breaking the case open with you in the middle her own version of them I am in love with maxine kent Divorce my wife None of this would have had the meaning that it has now But one doesn't do things like that in a small town unless one is prepared to leave We weren't fine Doctor's money is nothing she had done But we were intelligent people we had control of our emotions So we talked and decided not to see each other again I admit I lied to my wife Not well, she suspected the truth When kent was killed I think she lost her mind with doubt You did say killed Yes, I mustn't forget that my motive is now public, isn't it? That part of her note will be remembered That she realized she was wrong isn't important, is it? That depends I itself this is a good story all of it But it falls to pieces when it's told by the doctor who signed merrill kent's death certificate Yes, I suppose it does but it's the truth if it is you can prove it Where were you the afternoon kent was killed? Sometimes you can't prove the truth. I was in the office working with my wife And why did she think you had killed him? Because she left for about an hour to shop What did you do during that time? I came here to this room Is there any way to prove that anyone see you? No And if you can't prove it, it's not the truth If you can it holds up better and caught You're convinced that I'm guilty, aren't you? All I can do is work with what's at hand if you are you'd better plead it If you aren't you better keep your fingers crossed for a quick confession from someone else Mr. Dollar tell me Has it been proved that he was murdered? The autopsy should be underway by tomorrow afternoon Kent's sister has arrived We don't need her. His widow is authorizing one Nice Anything more to say? No, no I don't think there's anything more to say He's from county headquarters arrived at 6 30 p.m. None of their owners, Dr. Snyder, was removed to the single cell of the Fort Scott jail He doesn't question that evening But the headquarters men quite pointedly had their doubts that his wife's death was due to suicide But I've given them everything I had I drove back to the Kent ranch This time I wasn't met by the beautiful widow Our man stood waiting for me at the edge of the driveway I saw your wife coming up the road I came to see Mrs. Kent She's not here Where is she? She had to go to Santa Fe I'm her brother, can I do anything for her? I don't need any help, thanks We'll have the Santa Fe police pick her up Wait a minute It's a pretty sudden trip to Santa Fe, wasn't it? No, she does this a couple of times a month It's not as close as Albuquerque, but she likes it better Your name, Dollar? How soon did she leave after Mrs. Snyder killed herself? I think it was before Couldn't have been, I was here Here with Maxine? You people ought to get your signal straight I told her that I was on my way out from town How come you didn't know it? Or didn't you really call? You're right, things got confusing I sure did Where's your sister?  When she heard about the doc's wife, she flew apart Until then, she was sure Kent hadn't been murdered When that happened, she seemed to change her mind I guess we can charge it off to the old beat up, prerogative women as opposed to him I'll rain back to my hotel and get some sleep Wait just a second I want to tell you this Whatever happened, Maxine didn't have anything to do with it What did happen? I don't know, I'm no expert I was here when the horse dragged Kent in I took a split out of the stirrup and laid him down Maybe I should have waited until the governor came I don't know Anyway, you took him down To me, he was dragged to death But you say he might have been hit on the head by somebody I don't know Doc Snyder? I don't know Do you see him out here that afternoon? No As far as I'm concerned, he quit coming out a couple of weeks ago Before that, he kept after Maxine She told me that, then she made him stop How'd she stop him? She told him she couldn't divorce Kent You're trying to clear her, and that's natural I'd like to see the truth come out Well, let's work on that then When was the last time your sister and Snyder were together? A couple of weeks ago I didn't hear it, but I was here when she told me to stop That was the last time he came out Did she meet him anyplace? No, I'm sure of that I made up my business to find out where she went And who she saw She never met him Did he phone her? Yes, but it finally got to the point where I answered the phone That she wouldn't talk to Do you know if she ever phoned him? I don't think she did I don't know why she should What are you driving at? I want to find out if Snyder could have discovered That Kent was out riding that afternoon Maybe he could have found out where he was going And could have met him Well, my sister couldn't have told him Because she didn't know Sure, then She was in her room resting I'm the only one who knew where he was going Are you still protecting her? It's the truth I talked to him just before he left He was breaking this horse to shoot off of And he went out toward McNeil Canyon To find some jack rabbits They'd make better witnesses if they could talk I have to have your sister picked up How soon will that order go on? Why? I just thought she might get a hold of herself And come back tonight It'll be a break if you wait till morning She didn't ask for a break by leaving I'll think it over and check back with you Things moved slowly Mrs. Kent did come back on her own And signed for an autopsy I didn't see her By that evening Her husband's body had been exhumed And by noon the following day The coroner's report was out There was no actual post-mortem evidence of murder But the openings were still there Considering the circumstances There was no proof that it wasn't murder either The inquest verdict was the familiar Death by misadventure Or at the hands of personal persons Unknown Dr. Snyder and the body of his wife Were caught off to the county Seemed to more questioning and examination I spent the rest of the day with Sheriff York And a flock of volunteer citizens Going over everything we had from the beginning Again It was a long, hot afternoon After a shower and some food that evening I started back to the Kent Ranch Thought you'd be through with this Since Dr. Snyder was arrested Not quite, you sister here What do you want with it? I'm not far to her Forgive my apologies Apologies I have no society view With a brother with him Is she here?  I don't know And here goes what? I lost my head She came back to me, Chief I'm glad she did She had nothing to run away from What do you mean? Well, they're satisfied now That your husband's death was accidental Oh, you mean this, darling?
