Hello, beautiful soul. This is Christy with Art of Awakening and this is just a very quick daily reading. I am recording this on April 8th, 2019, but it'll be good for whatever day you happen to land here. And so the backdrop here, I just created, or I'm in the middle of creating another spirit animal meaning video. This is a hummingbird and I just did this little painting for that so I thought I'd put that as a backdrop. And I'm just laughing because we're still in the shadow of Mercury retrograde. I didn't have any technical problems throughout the retrograde period itself, but as soon as we hit the shadow, it's been one technical issue after another. It's been crazy. So I actually just recorded this and did the whole shuffle and pull and stuff on video and then it just didn't turn out. So here I am again, but I'm going to kind of spare that I'm going to use the same card that came up before and that card was wolf. And I found that interesting because I had really, really been debating do I want to do hummingbird or wolf, hummingbird or wolf. And I finally came down to hummingbird because quite frankly, I was really tired this weekend and something was telling me wolf. But I was like, you know what, I'm not up to wolf. I went to hummingbird. So I did hummingbird and here's wolf.  So I think we'll be next anyhow. So when I tuned into wolf, what I saw was wolf kind of sniffing and on the trail. And what he was telling me was, you know, it's time to start sniffing out kind of what it is that you want. And so I got to thinking about, you know, just what he was saying about what you want. It really came down to going for not just what you think you want or not just what you want on the surface, but your deep desires, the deep desires. And I have an example for that. Right now I want a car on between cars. I had to give up my Chevy Volt. It was on a lease and I just I didn't like the car enough to want to buy it. And then I was using my dad's car for a bit that didn't work out. So I'm sort of like, I don't have a car right now. I live in town. So it's not a big deal. But I'm sort of at the beginning stages of shopping for a car. And so it's like thinking, well, you know, and it's so hard to shop for a car because there's so many variables. It's like, you know, how do you choose one? And what wolf was just telling me was like, okay, well, what is it about the car? Do you really want a car? And honestly, I'd be more than happy not to have a car. But I really want the car because the deeper reason I want to go get the car is that I need the car to get out into the woods. Right now my dog is older and I could probably get to the woods on a bicycle. But she just wouldn't run beside it anymore. She's getting pretty old. So it's really, really my deep desire is to get out there and connect with Mother Earth to connect with nature. And that's the biggest reason I need a car. And also once winter comes to do it in the winter too. And so he's saying, well, you know, everybody's got things that they want, but they're not always thinking it through to the deeper, deeper desires. I'm going to give you another example. This is one that we hear a lot in the media. You know, we need jobs, we need jobs, we need jobs, anytime there's anything that comes up in the economy, it's the jobs, jobs, jobs. And wolf is like, do you really know what is it that you need jobs? Do we need jobs? No, we don't need jobs. We need security, right? We need our basic needs met. That's why people want jobs. But seriously, like, I think most people, if you, you know, if you were given the choice, would you actually want the job and to be putting 40 hours a week or more, you know, into something that maybe isn't really feeding your soul? No, I mean, we obviously we need our needs met and we want that. And maybe a job's the best thing for it. And for most people, it is most of the time, it's, you know, you got to find employment so that you can feed yourself. But it's not the deep desire, right? It's not the deep desire. And so wolf is asking us to look beyond superficialities, look beyond the superficial look beneath the surface and figure out what, what you really want. What's really driving you and follow that, start following that. And I'm finding it's, you know, it's, I was wondering, it's like, hummingbird do, like I knew another card was going to come up. And here's the hummingbird connection. Hummingbird has a lot to do with joy, right? It embodies joy. It's a very, very hybrid vibrational animal. And so I think what Wolf is really saying is, you know, follow it's, it's an old saying, it's a cliche, follow your bliss. But it's so true. It's like, allow yourself to start doing what brings you joy, what sparks joy in you and allow yourself to do it. And without, without, you know, he's just showing sniffing on the trail. I mean, he's not, he's not like at the hummingbird, right? But he's sniffing at the trail. So it always starts, it's like, I think sometimes we get impatient. We want to have that hummingbird in our hands, right? Or in the sights of our camera. But what Wolf was saying is like, it's got to start somewhere. And I think it starts by sniffing out what is it that brings you joy? And then starting to just follow that little trail. Allow yourself to do what brings you joy. I went swimming this morning. I haven't swum in a long time, but it was a very joyful experience. And I hadn't really allowed myself to do that. And I think a lot of us have things that we're not letting us experience that joy. So go have a joyful day today. And before you do, click like and subscribe if you haven't yet. I'm uploading videos every day in April.

So let's take the first step to get started and really take your career to the next level with our seven-step money guide today. So let's go ahead and click the link below to sign up for our free seven-step guide to help you get your career started today. All right guys, a lot of you guys, a lot of you got Node.js skills and you're trying to figure out how you monetize these skills and really put yourself in a position to get to that six-figure salary and you're trying to go online and find some examples of projects with no luck. I'm gonna give you guys some examples how you can make money with specific Node.js projects and you're gonna see a theme here and I'm gonna let you know how to implement your Node.js knowledge and really be able to provide value to a company and put yourself in a position to win, guys. So a lot of Node.js is actually on the server side. So it's technically not a web development or it's part of a web development stat as far as getting out web apps. I like to do web form automation guys. Somebody submit an application in or web form via JavaScript and you process and do something with that data. That's a huge market for Node.js guys. Be able to process that data, put it on a server, automate processes, be on that web application on the server. You got a ton of companies who are needing that so you guys need to jump on that. Same with number two, web imaging. Same concept, somebody submit something via the front end of the application. You wanna process and fire off an application or process or create an image of something. You have that server side resource that you can process that data, create an image, create an Excel spreadsheet, really provide or put that information on the network for somebody to really leverage those, that information straight off of the server. Node.js can do that type of work for you guys. And not all the projects is exclusive to Node.js. I'm trying to give you that JavaScript Node.js combination. Some of them are exclusive Node.js as I go through them, but a lot of them's gonna be dependent on different stacks but guys, just like anything else, once you learn one program language, the other one kinda come natural to you as far as just the syntax and the foundations. So let's make sure we kinda keep that in mind. Number three guys, dashboards and reporting. It's very critical to get certain types of data to the actual server. A lot of times out of canned APIs and things just don't have the information you need or you have to do some additional processing. You have to do some additional monitoring in certain situations. Node.js actually gives you that flexibility to be able to put any and everything on a particular application plus from an alerting standpoint guys, the level of alerting projects go to a whole other level. You can monitor a specific file path, something happen, you can shoot an alert to the front end of the application. You can email somebody. You got a wide range of option when it comes to alerting and dashboarding with Node.js guys. So you need to kinda check your options out. Number five, well, number four is the web API integrations. Huge, huge market for Node.js guys. Got a lot of options there as far as just pooling and receiving data, processing it on a server, manipulating it, putting it to the database, sending it to the front end of the application. That's a huge market for that guys. Converting and moving legacy web apps and data. This one is a little bit more complex because you're gonna be using other technologies depending on the mobile app and what you're gonna be using as far as just the native app if you're using that. But a lot of you guys really can leverage your Node.js skills to really kind of find out what you can process on the server instead of using native apps guys. A lot of you guys wanna kinda lean one side or the other when it comes to native apps. I'm a huge web app guy. I have very few projects that I do native apps in. Again, I'm almost exclusive web app but there's a lot of processing that can be done on a server to level the playing field as far as just a native application versus a web app. And Node.js can bridge that gap as far as just processing. You guys are noticing a lot of back end processes throughout this list that I'm giving you. Very, very profitable. Stuff that people can't see. Stuff that you're probably not gonna find on web forms because everybody's so concerned with the front end application and what's available there. Nobody's really paying attention to back end and the flexibility you have by using a single programming language which is JavaScript to be able to facilitate this and really leverage this guy. So, like I was saying guys, I got more than 10 that I'm gonna cover here today but I have a seven step guide below. It's free, sign up for that. We cover this from a project level more in detail and kind of give you the philosophy and the strategy you need to be able to put this into play right now and to really take your projects to the next level. So go ahead and sign up for my seven step guide and if you already signed up for my seven step guide go ahead and pick up or check out some of my premium courses guys. Really good information, got a lot of flexible payment options for you and really can find something that works for you so links are below. So, number six, mapping APIs. Same thing guys. A lot of the APIs are maturing so this one may not be feasible for long but it's still a lot of information to be had. Basically, the way I like to use processing or any kind of server side application is those unstructured data sets that you just can't get out of a box from a typical API. NoJS is great for this type of stuff guys cause a lot of times you go to a developer SDK or their standard out of the box system development kit it just don't have the stuff that you need or you just need to do something temporarily and you don't wanna go through a whole process of setting up something that you're gonna be using temporarily. NoJS is great for that kind of stuff guys. This is the utility that I leverage a lot on that and my highly suggest you guys mapping is one of those things where traditionally it's front end and I think it's gonna eventually be powerful enough to handle probably 95, 98% of the cases straight out of a box. But you're gonna always have that 2% that it's gonna be customized to what that company needs. They may want specific data out of a strange data source or a combination of the Excel spreadsheet and this and process it then put it to the screen. It just possibilities are endless so kind of keep that in mind. Number seven guys. Accounting integration and order processing. You got a lot of different applications that are sending you different type of data sets to that one server. You need to be able to pool that data in multiple ways. NoJS give you that option. I'm a huge in data. Data is important. You got other applications that can process data better I would say Python. If you just strictly trying to process a data set and you're working purely on the actual data then Python is probably gonna be a better option for you. But if you're talking server side I have JavaScript knowledge. I need to pool these different data sources in. I need to send it to either front end or back end and it's not on a web application. It's on the actual server. You need to do certain type of processes. I would think Java, NoJS or you can leverage which I wouldn't recommend this. I'm just giving you options. You got PHP and you also got Ruby on Rails. But I would, me personally I would do PHP but we're talking about NoJS here so you got some options here. So keep that in mind. So number eight. Passing data to a WordPress database. Everybody know WordPress is notorious or PHP and WordPress are married up. Man, this guy is more in the gray. I hope you guys can hear me effectively but the show must go on. We're gonna continue this. So WordPress, passing data to that MySQL database. The luxury of having NoJS is you can leverage more option when it comes to just not a MySQL database. I'm pretty sure PHP, well I know PHP have a lot of options to pull something from MySQL or maybe even NoSQL database so that's not a difference there but the good thing about NoJS you have those options. So kind of keep that in mind guys as we kind of see what those are. Last, well number nine. Marketing and tracking the CRM or marketing and tracking on your website. JavaScript is already one of the primary ways people use their snippets and pass data through the application and store it in cookies. You can take that process to the next level when you can take that information, store it on a server and process it all within one programming language guys. So you can do that and make sure you can effectively, effectively have that process, process that data throughout your application on a server side on a database using JavaScript. So it's very important that you guys do that. And number 10, standardizing your web code. This is another thing that shines when you're using JavaScript versus NoJS that's gonna help you guys leverage a lot of information when it comes to standardizing your code. This is a huge problem for most developers because most developers just come in and just plug in a solution they already know to an environment that may not necessarily be the best option. They just wanna make that initial money and you wonder why when somebody come in as another developer, they're looking at this like why would they do that? And this is that particular situation guys. So if you have additional questions, comment below. Do you agree with me? Do you disagree with me? Let's start a conversation below.

He's a new fallen man Newfounding He's a he all right, that's good Claudia of what possible interest can that be to you? I think David would prefer a manly dog. Claudia you you're not intending by any chance to buy Am I you bet? I am if he doesn't cost a fortune lady that dogs worth five hundred dollars. Yes, sir That's what the fella paid them five hundred dollars Five hundred dollars what fella fellow that owns a millionaire lives up on Park Avenue. Name is Morgan Augustus Morgan Oh, then the dog's not for sale. That's different. Oh He said me is a beautiful dog. He isn't he? Oh, he's for sale all right, though Maybe for sale ain't the right expression.  I'll take You don't buy dogs by the pound and if his former owner couldn't afford to keep them you and David certainly can Who is this mr.  You're wreck the apartment. Mama. Couldn't I just try? Couldn't I just take him on approval?

He's beautiful start with a bowl of goldfish nice goldfish art animals canary's a nice They're not animals even kittens. How about you? I adore them, but my husband isn't crazy about cats I don't think there are a lot of men out and then again a lot of men are Depends on the man I imagine.

I know it is he was a special sale because you see because why oh, he's not vicious or anything You see it isn't the initial cost is the upkeep and I bought five pounds of hamburger for him Well four and a half pounds really I left out half a pound for us. Are you trying to tell me that we? Can't keep David I want it, but I was afraid you wouldn't I wouldn't I I'll work my fingers to the bone for the old boy. Hey, come on over here Don't knock me over again Hello, I don't know what it can be, but I'll I'll see if I can stop it awfully sorry Bye, who was it the people downstairs? What are the people downstairs all story material used in this broadcast of Claudia was under the supervision of Rose Franken and William Brown Maloney As it occurred to you lady that you can order coca-cola by the case now and get it It's not a bad idea. You know to keep an ample supply of coke on hand You never can tell when junior will want to treat his school team or daughter will ask the crowd over for a coke party In your housework, too. It's nice to work refreshed with ice-cold coca-cola When you shop have your grocer or a service station put a case of coca-cola in your car Every day Monday through Friday Claudia comes to you transcribed with the best wishes of your friendly neighbor who bottles coca-cola So listen again tomorrow at the same time And now this is joking saying or a bar and remember Whoever you are whatever you do wherever you may be When you think of refreshment think of coca-cola or ice-cold coca-cola makes any pause the pause that refreshes


Welcome back to the 21 convention 2019 of Orlando, Florida our next speaker. There's been a long time coming He's been recommended over and over again by some of our top alumni speakers like AJ Cortez and Adelaide Moore and Tanner Guzzi and more He is also the world's most controversial and the man is fear is most controversial dating coach Without further ado, please. I'll be welcome Pat Statman to the 21 convention stage We're gonna talk about that controversy a little bit later on in the talk, but First I wanted to introduce myself and how I got into this corner of the internet Like many of you it began with a breakup So spring of 2008 my girlfriend of many years high school girlfriend broke up with me and I was devastated. I didn't know how I got her to be honest She was a very attractive girl. She had pursued me and when it was over. I felt as if My entire history with girls was going to be over certainly with attractive girls Is that summer? I was like, I mean, I was just kind of in like a hopeless situation and I was taking some summer classes and I was walking down the street past the campus book store and I saw this book in the window You guys can guess what the book was, right? The game Now this book for me was a little bit interesting because months earlier. I had been just in the cafeteria I've been reading a book review and like the campus newspaper this girl. She was so pissed off about this book She was like, well, you know, this is this is completely ridiculous There's no way this stuff works if it did work like the girls or something was really messed up with them And I was reading this then I was still in the relationship at that point and I just remember thinking like well She's so upset There must be some truth to it And so when I saw that book I did a double take and decided to go get it and it changed my life Now Neil Strauss is a great writer. So it's easy to read and the material in it was very interesting, right? It gives a good foundational Idea of how attraction works, but the real thing about that book that changed my life was the fact that It showed me that I could change who I was I could change my behavior I could be a different guy. I didn't have to be a guy who is constantly being Having having to to be at other people's schedule, right? If there's an attractive girl I could talk to her I could make something happen And it was that mindset that that changed my life. And so I won't go through all the different Places that I explored during that journey that would be a very long talk Some very skeevy pickup sites one of the companies that really gave me a lot of perspective though as a social man and To 21 alumni 21 convention alumni Christian Hudson Nick Sparks. I trained under Nick Sparks in particular and His way of attraction really vibed with me because he understood game But there was other things that he understood too about being an authentic man and So when I was ready to leave my corporate job and I was in his alumni group And I had been doing a lot of stuff answering questions for other alumni. I didn't know what I wanted to do I was considering starting a cookie business with some friends which very good thing that didn't happen They encouraged me to become a coach because they said you're already been helping us like one why not do it professionally? And it was very strange for me at the time to think that the student could become the teacher But that took me out on this journey now the stuff that I had learned from Nick About authenticity it kind of got me down this other direction. So I started to go a little bit new age I was very curious about how deep could I go down that that rabbit hole of trying to explore yourself and figure it out And I learned some interesting things from them I thought that maybe they had the truth But when I spent a lot of time with them out in California I found out that that wasn't the case they had they knew some things but a lot of the people there They didn't understand sexual dynamics They understand themselves in a certain way because they were very depolarized and the guys who? Clearly had some degree of game were cleaning up with all the women were the guys who were exploring their feelings and sharing them weren't doing so well So I was trying to figure this out And so when I you know around 2016 2017 when I entered on to Twitter into the manasphere I kind of came back to my roots. I saw a lot had changed a little bit different than the the early years of pickup You had now people talking a lot more about macro level sexual dynamics rather than just game It was very interesting to me And so my whole idea at this time was trying to reconcile these different fields together What is the idea, you know, you have people who are all about game They think that game is the way that you attract women others. It's about authenticity others. It's about looks How does this all fit together? And so I started to ask some questions taking some of the new information.  It's like It's like laughed at him like a muppet. I'm not into all this pill stuff. I'm just a guy Who thinks? Who tries to figure stuff out who's looking for the truth and the truth is a never-ending process It's a never-ending dialogue The only real red pill is that there's another red pill And if you ever get comfortable in your assumptions That's when you start to get stuck and so as a man I want you guys to remember this before we go into the bulk of the presentation Which is the framework that I created just that this is my framework. I developed it From thinking about attraction from all sorts of different fields But just because I made up this framework. It doesn't mean that you guys have to follow it think for yourselves I am not the arbiter of your truth No one is and if someone says that they are they're an ideologue and they're very afraid of learning anything else so this framework is known as the three pillars of attraction and I know people are using pillars a lot but I've been using pillars for a long time.   Well, if it's your marketing it means it's responsible for generating leads Because it's passive framing. It's the things that women see about you before you say or do anything at all Very very powerful stuff pre-selection Pre-selection can be divided into two different sections more or less You have aesthetics and you have status so as part of aesthetics You have things that are unfortunately not in your control for the most part, which is Your your bone structure.   You need to lift weights. You need to get in shape Aim for a body fat percentage between 10 to 15 percent If you're above 15 percent, you're not optimized if you're above 20 percent. You're overweight under 10 percent if you want to do it for yourself go ahead, but you're more likely to attract dudes than girls so Take that into consideration Grooming matters talk to George Bruno about that Style matters talk to Tanner Guzzi about that all of these things are What a woman sees about you at first and it gets her interested in you Makes her start to think who is this guy? He's attractive, right? He's attractive, but it's just the marketing just getting her attention Thank You Anthony the second part of pre-selection Is the status the status can be broken down into three main categories That's much better money Money is more of a comfort creator than a desire creator. It's part of attraction But the main thing about about money is that well first it sub communicates perhaps that there's more to you Because you have this money, right?  You can take a girl out to like get fast food or something like that But especially as time goes on you don't get that pass as you get into your 30s having money becomes Something that's expected and in your 40s beyond it's it's frankly Unacceptable to not have it to not have yourself figured out because it communicates also are you somebody that she can respect? Can you provide for yourself? So money is very powerful in that sense and girls are going to be interested in you if you have money now The caliber of the girls some of their question Because you're leading with something that they might want to take from you And so you have to be very careful if you're leading with it, but there's no question that money is A marketing campaign for you It draws attention to you Then you have fame Fame in contrast the money is pure desire Now well, how do you get fame a talent or skill and you're good at it and you can perform with it So and I want to you guys to keep in mind with this a lot of people think fame like oh I'm not like a famous person.  You're at neutral right now because everybody's pre-selection is the same so you don't stand out and So the same thing works the other direction So if you're a guy who's playing you know the guitar at the coffee shop, right?  It's their currency and so fame Has everybody's attention and so you the value of your attention is amplified because of everybody else looking at you And then you have popularity Popularity is a mix of both Popularity is something I work on a lot with clients. I'm a big fan of social circle game It's extremely powerful in my opinion It also has a lot of compound effects for your life because you have more people that you know When you're a popular guy you host parties, right?  They want to talk to you And if a girl sees that She's gonna want to talk to you too. You host a party with even just 30 people, right? And a girl brings her friends there Her friends are gonna see you and they're gonna your pre-selection is gonna be through the roof it's a very very powerful and It's it's useful because you just also have a huge much more network and people will come to you So that's pre-selection All things that work passively to set the frame that you are a valuable guy But it's only the first pillar Second pillar is persona persona is your sales Persona is what a lot of people will refer to as game Although it's a little bit more than that. So it's your sales And it's your active framing. So pre-selection works passively in the background persona You have to do something to create the same effects So with persona there are two main things that you have to understand to be good at it The first is awareness and discernment So think of yourself as if you're an infantry captain and you have to assault Let's say across the river, you know, but you know, there's an enemy over there But you don't know what's over there The first thing you have to do if you're a commander worth anything is gather recon get intel If you don't have any idea of what's going on anything that you do is gonna be bad You're you're like you're really making a big big risk for your men if you do that and the same thing is true with game You need to have an awareness of what's going on the situation So being able to read social dynamics being able to understand a woman's sexual strategy But also being able to understand psychology, right? Hypergamy plays a role in here because hypergamy is a woman's sexual strategy. So to speak But it's also the female shadow. So it's part of a woman. But what else is going on in that woman's life? Is she a confident woman does she have low self-esteem? What's going on in the social dynamics? How do the people know each other? How is she feeling and why might she be feeling that way? There's a lot more things you have to pay attention to if you want to get good at this because the second part of persona is your tactics Now I'm not going to go into all the specific tactics. There's like Well over a decade of people million blogs people Compiling them and it's great. I mean I encourage you to research them on their on your own This isn't a tactical speech, right? It's a big picture overview But to give you some general principles of how the tactics work with what the what's going on basically with it Is you have push-pull? Now push-pull is important for a couple of reasons because push-pull creates contrast That's the first thing and so contrast creates mystery. You have Jack Donovan, right Jack guy a lot of tattoos Maybe a little a little scary in a good way to a girl She sees that he's spending time with his niece. I don't know if he has a niece, but She sees like a picture of him. Oh, yeah, or they're on a date He's like, yeah, you know I like to go out and you know take my niece out places It's really like we have a really close relationship Creates a lot of contrast right there And that's not exactly what I'm talking about with like the push-pull There's some tactics that do it together Classically in game. You're going to be pushing forward making assumptions teasing challenging and Then pulling a little bit more which is compliments Vibing trying to connect with her And you're going to do that back and forth throughout the interaction Now the other part of push-pull is tension resolution the push is creating the tension the pull Creates the resolution and that actually ends up creating more tension on a macro level Because when you're creating small amounts of tension and you pulled away There's a higher level of tension throughout the entire interaction Very very powerful to understand this because Tension is the lifeblood of a type of attraction in the problem I see 90% easily of guys who are like I can't do well with women. They can't handle tension If you can't handle tension, you're not going to be able to approach because approaching is tension. You can't handle tension You're not going to be able to get the number. You're not going to be able to get physical Everything that's scary is tension, but if you can ground it Then you can move it forward because remember that she's feeling the tension when you feel the tension now Persona and pre-selection have an interesting relationship One's passive one's active So how do you calibrate? Well, you have to pay attention to both of these and I can tell you that this is one of the big things That's overlooked. I was working with one client. He was a just come back from some pickup boot camps and He was having some trouble He's very surprised. He's like, yeah, I was going out the bars using all this stuff. I learned That's and there were girls there They're like give me eyes and whatnot and I go and talk to them and then things would just fall apart I'm like, hmm. Well, maybe he's not you know, maybe he's not creating tension. What's going on? So I asked more questions. I'm always asking questions trying to figure out what's happening So I'm having him describe himself. He's a good-looking guy Good-looking guy very successful pretty confident What these pickup guys had him doing they had him going up to these girls who were giving him eyes and he was negating them Now, how do you think that's going to go over for a girl? Who at that moment is? Interested in you and it's maybe thinking a little bit more submissively that maybe her value is a little bit lower than him It's going to do two things.  They have their pre-selection together You always want to push pull I don't want anybody here to misconstrue this but the proportion is going to be a lot less You're going to probably want to approach a girl with a compliment Whereas a guy who doesn't have the push pull as much Rather who doesn't have the pre-selection as much Is going to have to push a lot more. It's going to have to maybe challenge and nag or tease Because what happens is that that guy When he's going up to a beautiful woman the beautiful woman assumes his value is lower And he has to challenge her frame he has to do that actively think about it in a macro sense If you have a really good marketing campaign on a sales call People are coming in pretty much ready to buy and so bad salesmanship is overselling It's talking too much. It's just like lead them lead them where they have to go Whereas if you don't have a marketing campaign at all You're cold calling and you better believe there's going to be a lot of resistance So this is one of the reasons why I really encourage you as you work on your persona to work on your pre-selection as well Because pre-selection is like it's just passive income, right? It works so Effortlessly for you once you put the work in can take time to build but the rewards are great in The game is always useful to know but you know some guys relish in it Like I I'm I have nothing but respect for the day gamers who go out there and cold approach cold approach But it's a very specific skill set and if that's not you you don't have to do that Don't feel like you have to do that. There's other ways. You don't have to over complicate this to get women So those are the first two pillars of attraction But there's a third You have your marketing you have your sales What are you selling? What's your product? It's your personality And this is something that has been Mostly My opinion ignored Too much recently who you are is extremely important to attracting women You can you can look good. You can have great game But what are you gonna get?   It's good. It flies You can maybe fool him a little bit and there are some girls right and this is where persona can become very valuable Who don't actually know exactly what they want They don't know whether they want a car or plane. They're in the middle and all your passive and active framing can shift their perspective Yeah, maybe that is what I wanted But there are some girls who are never going to buy what you're selling It doesn't matter if you're a billionaire It doesn't matter if you're handsome some of them won't even hook up with you And I know that people here don't want to believe that but it's true There is a connection that can exist between people that is very very hard to describe And you have to accept that it's real we're not going to explore it. It's too esoteric, but it exists and just know that it exists, but That's your subjective value. So you have a product But what's the quality of your product? There's an objective value to it too When I was 16, I got my license and I got my grandmother's car It was a 93 Mercury tracer my grandmother didn't trust the government very much So she didn't get anti-lock brakes or airbags on that car If you had it filled up with people it accelerated maybe about 10 miles per hour over 10 seconds It was like a glorified go-kart. I love that car by the way. I love that car But that car sucked.  There's a market for cars. What kind of car are you?  You can spruce some stuff up. You don't have to be shitty. And so there's two ways To improve your product. I look at it like a tree You have at the bottom Your masculinity the roots you can't find out who you are as a man If you don't know how to be a man and guys who embark on this journey of self-actualization and who ignore the very very crucial steps Of trying to figure out their masculinity It haunts them eventually they have they have to go back to it or they never get there It's part of who you are now the journey to becoming a man is not exactly the same as the journey to becoming yourself There are two different things clearing up internal dissonance Reconciling your conscious and unconscious mind shadow work stuff. I do with clients all the time to great effect these are things that improve the quality of your product because What happens is that you actually start to like yourself more start to love yourself more A lot of you have downloaded programming about yourself.  How does this piece together? How does your personality and your persona? How does that work together? Well a lot of guys don't want to work on this Because you know what?  I can do that maybe in half of that time period But a guy who has this stuff messed up Takes at least months if not years really and it's always a constant process When I started this journey, I had such severe social anxiety that if I went to a party with people I didn't know I'd have a panic attack in 30 minutes I'd have to go back to my room and like write myself letters trying to get my mind from going crazy on itself I had a lot of bullshit and There's still some left Still a little bit left But I've done a pretty good job at working at it chipping it away little by little peeling back the layers of the onion So guys though who don't want to do this they're gonna adopt the fake persona They're gonna try to have their persona compensate for the weak personality.  I was just regurgitating stuff Didn't feel good and when I stopped doing that and started to be a little bit more aligned My results tripled and I felt a lot better. So I don't recommend doing it. It's cheap now This is a very important concept as well and it's the relationship between Persona and personality when it comes to the decisions that you make a Lot of guys myself included especially even in my early career of doing this Are very very focused on tactics They want to know how to okay girl does this I Know how to do this I can I can turn the script in my favor It reminds me of this story story, it's history Hannibal of Carthage during the Second Punic Wars and History buffs if I apologize if I get a few details wrong here But the Romans basically at this point in the war had controlled the seeds They didn't think that Hannibal could get to Italy During the winter, but he did he crossed the Alps very very difficult place to cross in Liguria and Provence and kind of modern-day southwestern Italy and southeastern France And he got into Italy and then the Romans were freaking out so they raised four lesions immediately to try to deal with him and he completely messed with with the Romans He knew that the that the consul who was commanding the lesions was a very very in pest in What's the word? I'm looking for Impulsive guy right he had a he had a fiery temper you get him angry and he'd make impulsive decisions so first What Hannibal did was he maneuvered himself tried to make the Romans attack him But then he maneuvered himself they wouldn't do it And so he maneuvered himself between Rome and so now the Roman lesions were like crap Hannibal is closer to the Rome than we are And then he basically set up a trap one of the first record examples of a pincer movement He lured the Romans in and annihilated the entire army Four lesions 30,000 men a consul dead Rome completely undefended That should have been the end of the Punic Wars Hannibal should have marched on Rome And then Carthage would have been the world power in the Mediterranean not Rome But Hannibal didn't do that Hannibal was a great tactician, but he didn't have a strategic. He wasn't thinking strategically So he dithered He hung around the countryside took it easy other Romans don't you know we'll win this one no big deal And so eventually the Romans were like well, we're not going to beat Hannibal So we're going to go attack Carthage And then Hannibal had to go back to Carthage and try to protect Carthage, and he failed to do so That was the battle of Zama That was actually anniversary October 18th just a couple days ago Tactics versus strategy if you think tactically you're gonna end up being a bitch Guys who think tactically are very very good with game, but they put women on a pedestal.  I want you guys to remember that It's not about you might know what to do to kind of get a girl to respond to your texts Right, I wrote a book on texting tackling texting. It's very very tactical But there's also strategic aspects here, which is that don't go after it if it's going to humiliate you It's going to demean you It's not worth it even if you get it. It's not worth it. It's never worth it That affects your core confidence Where does all this lead us?  They don't care about brand loyalty If you have a quality product people treat it differently. They think about it differently People are in business understand this if you want to have a good time in business Sell a premium high quality product people love it You make good margins A lot of people though, they want to chase the quick buck In the insecure market People are chasing external validation. They have no internal validation They don't love themselves. They don't respect themselves. And so they look elsewhere for it People who have developed that internal validation very very different They look for people who also have internal validation and that they come together Not because they need each other, but because they make each other's lives better And when you're in the secure marketplace, if you play games You're not gonna get those girls Those girls can see right through you And it's just because and there are people out there and they talk about it They talk about it all the time What they want you to be is avoidant This is attachment, right? Emotional attachment Emotional attachment as opposed to anxious And I get it but these are two sides of the same coin okay, an anxious person Is going to chase validation so a lot of Immature girls do this. This is an immature femininity and increasingly a lot of guys do it, right? because there's been due to cultural programming a polarity shift and And so What the I would say these more radical elements of the red pill Push forward is that well, you know, don't be blue pill. Don't be anxious Be red pill be avoidant Now what is avoidance? You get girls to chase you But you never commit keep them at arms length You got the power on the surface But it's a codependent relationship And what happens When you when the plates all fall down? How do you feel about yourself?  It's not confidence in a lot of girls Pray on it No one talks about everyone talks about guy game. No one talks about girl game. I talk about girl game I talk about girl game girl game is all about oh My god, I need you. I love you.  They just need they need they need they need and these guys are like. Oh, yeah, she really loves me You know she's all about me. Haha. You know just kind of push her to side She keeps doing it He's like Dude you're spending a little bit more time with her.  It'll flip a little bit back and forth But what happens with a lot of girls is they'll consume guys like this and so then the girls suddenly She goes from sending you nudes goes from Talking about how you know texting you all the time willing to be with you to not respond to your text all of a sudden. What's going on? hmm curious Then she starts pulling away She looks for another host to feed on and you're left in the dust Reading blogs, right? I do not recommend you date girls like this. Although perhaps you need to to learn if so do what I do with my clients Which is proceed with a ton of awareness about what's actually going on. I have a client like this right now He's got all of the persona all of the pre-selection Personality though not quite built up the core is not quite built up So you got he's got tons of girls, which is why when I hear people are like Oh, this is like some like purple pill kind of thing like guys. Don't do that.    So This is where you want to go and this is where I work with guys to pull them out of here To here because what happens in here is reality This is fantasy Everyone down there because they have no internal validation. They don't have a good relationship with the truth Because they don't have a good relationship with the truth They project all sorts of idealizations on the other person Once you start to get a good relationship with the truth, you can start to move to reality You can start to be honest with yourself about why you're a piece of shit Because a lot of look we all have it man and The only reason most of us have less of it is because we worked on it No one gets through this life unscathed.    I love questions by the way, so please more the better Pat really cool Can you explain a little bit? I'm having a little bit of trouble understanding the subjective value part I think you mentioned you didn't want to go into it, but you mentioned it was like your soul and It has you have very little control over it Can you maybe give some examples of some traits of subjective value that a guy might have you said?  I don't think you're talking about that. You're talking about something else that you can't control So you've probably heard people talk about chemistry Right now as we know a lot of what people consider to be chemistry is either fantasy bullshit or it's you know, just well executed game, but There I mean the evidence is just overwhelming. I think most of us if we're being honest with ourselves We know that there's sometimes there's a girl that we would see she's maybe not even exactly our type She's not the hottest girl in the room, but we're very drawn to her for some reason And so there's something that's going on on a very unconscious level between people and it's very you can speculate about what it exactly it is, but it exists and Just as that exists in a very polarized state that like yeah me and this person Really one each other There also exists the opposite Right. There are some people who just you're just not gonna get along with you just don't vibe with it doesn't matter How hot they are that you just hate the girl And and so that's what I mean by subjective value understanding that that You are gonna have distinct connections with people for reasons that are very very difficult to explain There's not necessarily traits around it In other words So you are like you said you it's very esoteric and hard to explain But yeah, really true that you can't do anything about that. I Don't think that you can know I don't I don't I haven't seen any evidence You can I mean, I don't know whether it's some sort of very deep unconscious draw make some people trauma bond with each other Right But that's not quite the same thing. That's more of the fantasy bullshit, right? It's it's very interesting how it works, but I mean You know my wife's an identical twin like I went after my one after my wife very very quickly and not after her twin so Why you know, I don't know There's an amazing framework man. Thanks a lot. Thank you A great lecture thus far. You're definitely right about one thing. No one talks about that girl game I would very much appreciate it and I'm sure the rest of us would if you could talk a little bit more about that Sure so What girls understand is that a guy Wants to feel appreciated right a guy wants to feel like You know guy wants to feel like he is masculine, right? He wants to feel like he is a leader like he is dominant and so what a girl will do to get a guy is She'll play into that fantasy that he has of himself And so she works on his ego So guys who are not down doing a good job of developing their confidence Have a lot more fantasies around this because they haven't they don't necessarily feel if they are that guy And so a girl can play into that and trap them. I see it over and over again I mean, it's one of the most classic things really. It's amazing.  I mean like really vulnerable to all the things that people Black pill about in the man of fear all the divorce rape, etc. That's the kind of stuff that makes you vulnerable Thank you. That was an amazing talk Question you mentioned that having a close intimate relationship with a woman will teach you a lot about yourself Which I totally agree with can you share you said you're married.  And what kinds of things did you really have to work on our course correct to get to the relationship that you have now? Well, the last girlfriend taught me girl game I'll even tell you for my marriage, that's fine When I first got married I'd you know come out of a stage where I was dating a lot of girls, right? when I decided to go for my wife and She basically taught me that I had all sorts of validation issues because I had all these girlfriends in my life Which played a very important role in my sort of social circle game that I had Cultivated but I didn't realize to what extent those relationships were mostly just bullshit and that I was only friends with those girls Not because I actually was friends with them But because I wanted the validation from them and so she you know shined a light on the fact that You know I had an insecurity right like I was married and yet I was still trying to collect validation from other women instead of generating it internally So that was one one way that it came out because obviously she wasn't happy about it, you know Yep, great talk Something I think is more than a little underrated is Especially a lot of guys who are looking to get into LTRs and maybe you know be married and have a family family one day is You know they all want to learn game when it comes to dating But then they forget to continue to game and attract their wife or their long-term partner Can you talk a little bit more about? How you best go about doing that successfully in your own relationship sure sure Well, it's a it's a constant process right you never stop doing it because you never want to I mean I think that a lot of misconstruing Misconstruences that people have with it So I'm gonna digress a little bit to get to the point so the honeymoon phase right everybody seems to idealize the honeymoon phase when there's this Really high amount of manufactured polarity because both parties are playing roles For each other to give each other the fantasy that they won the problem with that is it doesn't last Right so when we talk about gaming your wife a lot of people are like How do I make it so it was like in the first couple of days?   Did I answer your question? I think so. Yeah. Thank you. Okay Hey Pat How important of a role does social media play in pre-selection like Instagram and Facebook love it love that question Huge role if you wanted to One of the ways I was able to set up parties was by using Facebook I mean so it was convenient. I suppose you could say for events, right? But but even just having stuff now today like Instagram I mean it's fame, right? You're creating fantasies for people. You have to be careful with fantasies You'd be careful with it because people you know on a deep level people will get maybe the wrong impression of you I can tell you because I experienced this a little bit Like if you get into a serious relationship and you got into that relationship via a lot of seduction There's a big hard come down when you try to transition from here to here Because you create a whole bunch of stuff that maybe wasn't exactly true, but when it's if you're just talking about dating. Yeah, I mean It's very very powerful. You have a great Instagram. You're posting pictures of all these places. You're going cool things You're doing girls are gonna see that and Respond to it very positively Hi Pat. So you mentioned social circle game Can you describe how that works? because You mentioned that and then there's also the friend zone too, which you don't want to end up in generally Can you kind of just describe the two of them and what's the difference between the two? Sure. Sure great question So social circle game. I love it Because of all the different Leads and whatnot you're gonna get from girls. So how do you go about doing it? It's a concept that I call Planning trees not eating seeds So what a lot of guys will do is they'll meet a girl, right? maybe they've done some sort of new activity or whatever and They met some girls there or they met it through another friend They're gonna go after that girl immediately try to hook up with her.  They're trying to make something happen with a girl But if you as a guy are not thirsty and you hang out with the girl, especially a pretty girl You're like you're such a good friend. I'm so happy that we're friends, right? You should bring your friends to the party this weekend Well a couple fun things happen one as we just said you get access to her her network, right? But you also create a lot of trust Which makes it easier to close girls in that network But a funny thing also happens is that on like a mid to long term you'll often also close those girls Because you're a guy who's clearly not thirsty and of course you're gonna be teasing and bantering with her the entire time You're just not moving forward with it So it's a very flirty friendship and so there's a lot of tension that goes on between the two of you But it's not something that you Capitalize on you leverage rather and girls aren't used to getting friends owned by guys so it kind of fucks with their head a little bit Thank you guys that's all the time we have give it up for Pat Steadman


The first dog up in the 16-inch class is Rudy the Bulldog Handled by Deborah Perkins from a standard Ohio and they will be running at a preferred height of 12 inches And Rudy's full name is Vaughan Rudolph Augustus Perkins. Deborah is wearing a mic Let's see if you can hear Deborah and Rudy breathing. You hear me? Stay Rudy's got some great dental work Okay Don't worry about it hang in there Backside that time would come out the way that Rudy just did he came flying off that dog walk Okay, she releases him and he goes. Let's go. Let's play with that tunnel there Here she was supposed to send him to the back He went through her legs and over the over the jump in the wrong direction, but she got him back It was just five faults and bully weeds here. I love that Bully weeds. What do you think?  I was waiting for the crowd to chant them. I know they should have


Hello? Okay. So good morning. Thank you so much for waiting so much time. Well, we are happy to be here to share our work with you. This is vulnerability and exploitation. We name it as ghost telephonist. It's about a problem in CS4 back in the LTE network.  We will come from the 360 technology. 360 is a leading internet security company in China. And like my coffee and cement tech. And our core protects antivirus security software for personal computers and cell phones. For us, we come from the unicorn team. This team is one research group in 360. And this team was built in 2014. We focus on the security issues in many kinds of wireless systems, wireless telecommunication systems. And our previous works include like GPS proofing in DEF CON 23 the year before last year. Okay. And LTE redirection attack in DEF CON 24. And also the PLC attack in blackheading last year. So this year we bring the work about the vulnerability in 4G LTE in the CS4 back procedure. Okay. So what is CS4 back? Now let me briefly introduce the voice solutions in LTE network. As we all know, different from 2G and 3G. In LTE network, the circuit switch was removed. And only packet switch is left. So now there are mainly three solutions for voice in LTE. The first one is VOLT, voice over IP. This is the final objective for the network evolution. And the second solution is the case we discussed today, CS4 back. Circuit switched for back. It means when subscriber takes voice core, the cell phone has to switch from 4G to 2G or 3G. The third solution is simultaneous voice and LTE. The cell phone keeps two connections simultaneously. One is in 4G and the other is in 3G or 2G. This solution has higher price and more rapid power consumption on the terminal. Because it has two baseband chipsets running. At the beginning of this year we were working on a project about the well-known GSM man in the middle attack and we're debugging some modifications on OsmoCon BB. This is a very famous project for GSM protocol. We tried to send a fake page in response and then we were surprised to find some fake page in response messages were accepted by the network. There is no authentication and the core was successfully built. We think it's quite strange. So we started to have a deep look at it. See the two pictures. This is the signalling log on some engineering mode cell phone. In the part of the red blocks, you can see the left figure, we confirm that in the normal 2G core authentication does exist for every core. You can see here is core confirmed. Here is the authentication, oh sorry. This figure is the authentication request and the response. So in normal 2G core we find aka does exist for every core. But in the 4G network in the CS for back case, the network doesn't require authentication. We found this may be the root of this problem. It was introduced by the CS for back procedure. This slide showed the signalling flow of CS for back mobile terminated core procedure. You can see some network elements here. MME for 4G network and MSE for 2G and 3G network. When there is a core for a UE for one user terminal, the network firstly sends a response on the 4G network from MME to UE. And the 4G nob sends RRC connection release message here. In this message, the network tells the UE which 2G base station it should connect. In this step, there is another vulnerability we presented in last year. That is the LTE redirection attack. This problem is still under discussion in standardization groups and it hasn't been solved until now. When the UE falls back to 2G, it will send a response directly from the UE to MSE. And from this step to the core setup, there is no authentication. The whole principle is like. The network has different doors. For example, the left one is the door for LTE and the right one is the door for GSM. No matter which door the subscriber wants to enter, the door requires the subscriber to show the badge of the store. And once the badge passes the check, the subscriber enters the network space. And now there is one exception. When the subscriber goes out from the door of the LTE, he shouts, be quick. I have a call in GSM. In this urgent case, in this special case, the door of GSM does not check his badge. Okay, so after the discovery of this problem, we started to think about how to exploit it. The direct idea is to send fake page response and then impersonate the victim's cell phone and hijack its link. This picture shows our experiment setting. We use the C118 cell phone where OsmoCon BB layer 1 is running. And the C118 is connected to a laptop which runs OsmoCon BB layer 2 and 3. In this picture, we used two C118 cell phones to improve the attack efficiency. Now let's watch a demo video to know how the attack looks like. And then we explain the tactical details. This video records the whole attack procedure. Okay. We use two cell phones. One is the victim's cell phone. And use the, whoa. So firstly, we check the two cell phones work in the normal mode. We firstly use the victim's cell phone cause a normal cell phone. Okay. So both of them works normally. Whoa. Okay. So during the two calls, we captured the TMSI of the victim's cell phone. And we start the attack. We set the TMSI on this MacBook. Attack this TMSI. This is the victim's cell phone's TMSI. So now we call the victim's cell phone again. Now the call is connected. But the victim's cell phone hasn't response. The call is connected to the telephonist. Next, we open the Gmail Google account web page. We try to reset this account's password by entering the cell phone number. And the Google account will send a verification short message to the cell phone. The telephone has received this verification short message. Now we import the verification code. Okay. Now we can reset the password. Now we create a new password. Signing. Okay. Down. This is my Gmail account. Okay. This video was recorded in March in this year. And in this month, July, we noticed that Google announced its new two factor authentication scheme. The new scheme delivers the verification code through Google's special application on Android cell phones. So maybe this attack does not work to Google now. Okay. So let my colleague Yui to introduce more technical details. Good morning. I'm Yui. Now let me introduce the first exploitation. The same policy is the one. The attacker, we name it as got the telephonist can impose, impersonate the victim's cell phone to receive the call. The attack steps in our experiment are listed here. The first step is listing the pth, the paging channel. And the second is track the team C or EMC in the paging messaging. The third step is the case step. Forging a paging response messaging with the captured team C or EMC. After this step, we check whether the network accepts the paging response. If it accepts, it will enter the call setup procedure. If not, we will wait for the next paging messaging. So in this attack, we pick up victim randomly. So we call this method as random hijack. In the random hijack exploitation, the attacker, these things on the 2G paging channel is track teams from the paging request. And then 4G sends the paging response constantly. However, the network send a set. The 4G network should send paging request with F team C. And the F team C has no relation with the 2G team C. So someone may ask, why would the network send paging request on 2G side? Well, the sender said it should send paging on the 4G side. I don't know either. But in fact, we found that they fail all 8. Also receive the 4B paging request on 2G side. So my guess is the operator configured the network to do so in order to optimize the network to decrease the latency or setting up a voice call. Here is the success example. You can say that they all 8 have no same card. But after a fake paging response, we successfully received a call from the number 139. This slide explains the attack signaling. In this figure, UE have a way. Represents the victim. UE have an F. Represents the attacker. When there is an incoming call for the victim, the MSC in 2G network will request the MME in 4G network to transmit paging request. When the victim receives the paging request, it will send to the NB and it sends the service request to ask for a set of 4B to accept the incoming call in 2G. In the normal scenario, after 4B, the victim will send the paging response to establish a connection. But in this attacking scenario, because the attacker is constantly sending paging response with the victim's team's number, so the call is taken over by the attacker. Once the telephone is hijacked and incoming call, what can he do in further? The caller will recognize that calling the voice is abnormal. But the attacker may do something like social engineering. For example, he may say, your friend encountered an accident. He is in the hospital. He needs $2,000 for the rest of the calls. In this scenario, it may generate serious consequences. Anyway, now the attacker only knows the victim's team or team. He doesn't know who is the victim and he doesn't know further information. In order to do further attack, can we know the victim's number? In this picture, we found during one hijacked call, the telephone can make a call out to a phone by sending a message. This doesn't trigger an authentication either. The network will directly respond to the phone. By this way, we can see the victim's phone number on the screen to this phone. We call it as phone number catcher. Here we summarize the attack steps by issuing this signaling flow. Telephone gets the control from here. It sends a page in response. Then the network sends back setup. And the call is conformed. After the call is hijacked, the telephone makes a call out by sending a holding message and then sends a request. We can see the network sends back a setup message. It doesn't require authentication. This picture shows the pick up request. Here are the records captured by or hijacked on laptop that is running on. You can see they hold the message to the end of this call. The network does not require authentication. As long as the telephone doesn't hand up the call, the connection will be maintained. And at the same time, short message can be received or transmitted. We try to make a targeted attack to attack a test phone which gives us the ability to debug and log the signaling. After our investigation, we find a tool way to implement a targeted persistent hijack. First of all, we can send the page in response back constantly using the test phone or e-mail which we can get easily. No matter whether there is a page in request or not. Or we could use the SDN number or the cell phone number. In this case, we know the victim of the phone number. We can call the victim and capture the victim's team in the error. Then we can launch a targeted attack via previous mentioned attack method. Now let's go on to the next slide and introduce the details about how to implement a targeted hijack. Firstly, we can use team C to attack the victim as we discussed. With this attacking method, we could constantly send in page in response to the attack to the network using the victim team C. Once there is a call to the victim, the call procedure will set up. We can directly take over this procedure because we can respond to page in request quicker than the victim. That also means we successfully perform a targeted attack. Secondly, implementing targeted attack with team C basically requires the same steps as using team C. But this method has some potential advantages. The success rate is much lower than using team C. Because when the network that receives the page in request with team C, it needs time to look up the corresponding team C in the network. That's because the link set up increases the latency. But the victim will directly send legal page in response with team C and set up the link quicker than us, while the network is still looking up team C with our team C. Finally, when we have the victim's phone number, we can attack the victim in the following way. We need two C108 and one B104 as shown in this figure. Here is the steps. Firstly, we set up one C108 as a sniffer. Then we use the B104 to call the victim and trigger a regular CS4 back procedure. All sniffer will log the whole procedure including page in response, call set up, et cetera. Please notice the call set up signaling contains caller's phone number. That means we can locate the specific call set up signaling and trace back to find the corresponding page in response and finally extract the victim's team C. Now we have our victim team C. So we can follow the steps we mentioned before to hijack the victim. Now let's watch the demo video. This video shows the targeted attack. We impersonate one victim phone. And furthermore, we can choose the, we can hijack its short message and we can choose which message the victim can receive. First, we use two phones to call each other to verify the phone number. Then we start a count to see how much time it makes to mount the attack. Now, we call the victim. But the call have been hijacked it. So now we have successfully hijacked the voice call. Let's go on to attack short message. So we can successfully hijack short message and furthermore, we can choose which short message the victim can receive. So now, welcome my team member, Lin to introduce a more complex attack. Sorry for the video vision. Well, let me continue to explain the first, the first demo video show, the whole procedure. Okay. This is about how to attack the internet accounts. And we know that to simplify the user experience, many internet applications permits login with cell phone number and verification short messages. It doesn't require importing the login password. So if a attacker obtains the victim's cell phone number and verification short messages, he can impersonate the victim to access the application. Another attack path is using the verification short message to reset the password as we show in the first demo video. As we all know, there are some existing explorations which can obtain the verification short messages like the attack we show here. For example, SS7 vulnerability can utilize to hijack both call or short messages. And also some mail wells on the cell phones which can hijack the short messages content. So telephone is the attack is just a new attack method to generate the same consequence. We verify this kind of attack, the password reset on some of the internet applications, for example Facebook and Google account, et cetera. The steps are illustrated here. In first step, we control the victim's link and get the phone number. And in step two here, we use a computer open the web page and request to reset the password with the acquired phone number. In the step three here, the telephonist receives the verification short messages. And finally in the step four, we use this verification code to reset the login password. This picture is the screenshot of the C118's log. And the record in the red rectangle proves that the C118 received verification short messages sent from network. It says CP data network to MS. We investigated the password reset routine of many popular websites and applications, including global and Chinese ones. This table summarized some of them. Facebook, Google account, WhatsApp, and in China, there are Alipay, WeChat, DDNCNR, et cetera. Some of them require sending short messages from internet to cell phone, the inbound ones. And some of them require sending short messages from cell phone to internet, the outbound ones. Well, now, you may think this vulnerability is so dangerous, but we want to emphasize that. Don't worry so much. There are some constraints. In this page, we summarize the constraints to launch the attack. Firstly, the telephonist and the big team cell phone should be in the same pinging area. It may be several base stations coverage. And secondly, the attack is visible only one 2G network is in use and uses A51 or A50 encryption. I want to say here 2G network is in use. That means even the CS4 back makes the cell phone fall back to 3G. As long as 2G network is in use, the attack is feasible. And compared with other known exploitations, telephonist attack has these features. It doesn't need to access the SS7 core network. And this attack doesn't need fake base station. So it's quite easy to launch. The big team keeps online 4G network and is not aware of this attack. As the pictures you don't hear. People may also question that why in every experiment, you make a core to the big team to trigger the CS4 back? Is this necessary for a successful hijack? The answer is no. It depends on the operator's configuration. In some cases, we found we can directly impersonate the big team cell phone to make a mobile originated core. During our tests, we noticed that we got different successful results when we attacked different big team cell phones. Here are the five cell phones we tested. With different chipsets, it is strange that some of them which we marked with a star in the table will get back its control to the connection. After 10 seconds of our successful hijack, this means our attack is failed in this case. So what's the problem? Why does such kind of failure exist? Why do different cells have different behavior? After we tested and analyzed, the major reason we found causing this issue is the fast return procedure. The chipset manufacturers implement fast return in different ways. When a big team cell phone received a pattern message, but it didn't receive this core, it may launch a location area update procedure in 2G. And this action will finally lead the interruption of our hijack link. Here we show two cases. The first one is about Qualcomm chipset. In this figure, the green taxes are 4G signaling and the white taxes are 2G signaling. You can see that Qualcomm chipsets send location update request here. But there is no location update except following. So we doubt whether the chipset really complete the location update request procedure. So in this case, the attack will be succeed because the LAU procedure is not complete. So we can maintain the connection to do something evil. Here's the failure example. We can see the difference. This is case of MTK chipset. When the cell phone failed back to 2G, it didn't get this core. But before we turn into 4G, the signaling was sent out. There is a location update except immediately following. So in this case, our victim will get a new team C. That's why the connection will be interrupted 10 seconds after being successfully hijacked. Okay, does this mean the chipset we marked as star are all immune to this deck? No. For such chipset issue, we can use the jamming to prevent the victim's cell phone sending LAU signaling to the network. Then we could maintain this hijacked link. Okay, we proposed counter-visors to operators and internet providers. We suggest to add the CS4BACA authentication in the CS4BACA procedure. The additional latency is acceptable. And we think the final solution is to speed up the VOLT deployment. And for the internet service provider, and it should be careful that the PSTN authentication is not safe. And ISD guidance already suggested that not use PSTN into factor authentication. Well, finally, I want to thanks to GSMA CVD program. This is a new program launched in this year. This is a program for researchers to report the vulnerability related to standard and protocols. So before this program, we have no good platform to report such vulnerabilities. So we reported this problem to GSMA and we received the first acknowledgement on the mobile security research hall of fame. GSMA also transferred this vulnerability information to every operator. And we know some related operators already fixed and or fixing this problem. Well, that's all. Thank you all for your attention.


Hello and welcome to the course introduction to the course on introduction to computer and network performance analysis using queuing systems. My name is Professor Varshaapte and I am a faculty member in the department of computer science and engineering at IIT Bombay. So today I will just be giving a course introduction, just giving the content of the course and who should be doing it, so let us get started. So the computer system and network performance basically relates to performance quality of systems and networks. Things like download delays or amount of work done per unit time, for example, stock exchange may be interested in how many trades it is doing per second at the peak hour. So we all know that good performance is actually very critical to computer systems and networks and it is not only features that are important. But in any case we run into slow systems. So it is a problem and we do need to look at it and that is what this course is about. So let us ask some questions of who, what, why, how, I am sure you have a lot of questions about the course, so I will go over all those details. So what exactly is the course about, we will in this course we focus on analyzing performance of systems. The main question we ask is given some essential description of a system, computer or network system, can we estimate some performance metric? For example, can we estimate the download delay of a file storage application, if we are given some description about it or can we actually estimate the number of trades per hour done by a stock exchange server, why are these questions important? For businesses they are important because if I am the stock exchange business owner then I want to do as many trades per day as possible. If I am the stock exchange owner I also want to make keep my users happy, they should be able to do that trade very fast, if they click on a button they should get the trade done in a few seconds or milliseconds, right. And if that is not happening then how does one improve performance and there are many ways to be able to size your resources, to be able to answer some configuration questions like how many cores should the server have? What is a bottleneck in my system? So these are the questions that are very important, there are some design questions also like scheduling policies and so on, I should be able to answer those. So analyzing being able to answer the question as to if my bandwidth of my link is to the data center is this, then will my users be satisfied? This is a very important question to answer. How do we answer it? We use the theory of queuing systems or in short we call it queuing theory. What is queuing theory? It views everything as queuing systems, it is a universal mathematical theory that models these resources as queuing systems, basically things of everything as something that users have to stand in a queue for, the users can be packets or something. So everything you know a web server, core and any part of the all the network elements everything is queues and what it comes with is it gives us a set of laws that relate performance metrics to system parameters and it gives us some formulae by which these estimates can be done. So how is this course different from other queuing system courses? This is this part is important for those of you who are listening who know what queuing systems is about have been wanting to do a course and there are actually multiple courses on NPTEL itself and in the world in general on queuing systems. So what is how is this course different? My emphasis in this course is going to be on intuitive understanding and all derivations and everything that we do are intuitive, the probability background is very minimal. The actual queuing systems if you want to do it in deep you actually need some heavy mathematical background we are not going to need that in this course at all. For example, there is this thing called stochastic processes that is not going to be there at all in this course we will focus on some like low load behavior, high load behavior and by doing that we will reduce the mathematical requirement of the course and we will also continue to do comparison with measurement. syllabus is actually given on the website this is I am not going to go over this in detail you can look at it on the course webpage this is the syllabus this is just for a quick reference if you want to see one slide on this later. Again what is not the syllabus we will not do advanced maths and in this we will not be covering details of protocols everything we do in queuing systems is in an abstract way. Who should take this course? Anybody who is interested in operating systems networked applications virtualized systems cloud computing networks wired wireless queuing systems is actually the foundational theory to understand all of these systems your quality of work in these systems will improve a lot if you do this course and professionals if you are actually not just doing code development but architecting networked applications you should do this course and if you are doing performance testing or load testing this is extremely important for the performance testing and load testing teams. The prerequisites is undergraduate background in operating systems computer architecture and computer networks at a very high level again details are not required and mathematics only 12 standard level. So that was the introduction I hope you will be interested in taking this course and looking forward to you registering for this course thank you.


If you intentionally expose people to mercury by feeding them fish like tuna for 14 weeks and then stop, this is what happens to the level of mercury in their bloodstream. It goes up, up, up, and then as soon as you stop the fish, it drops back down, such that you can detox down half in about 100 days. So the half-life of total mercury in their blood is approximately 100 days. So even if you eat a lot of fish, within a few months of stopping, you can clear much of it out of your blood. But what about out of your brain? Modeling studies are all over the place, suggesting half-lives, similar to blood, at 69 days, all the way up to 22 years. But when you put it to the test, autopsy studies suggest it may even be longer still. Once mercury gets into your brain, it can be decades before your body can get rid of even half of it, so better than detoxing is to not tox in the first place. That's the problem with these fish advisories, where they tell pregnant women to cut down on fish. For pollutants with long half-lives, like PCBs and dioxins, temporary decreases in fish consumption, daily contaminant intake, will not necessarily translate to appreciable decreases in maternal, persistent, organic pollutant body burden, which is what helps determine the dose that the baby gets. For example, here's how much exposure an infant gets to a tumor-promoting pollutant called PCB 153. If their mom ate fish, but if for one year mom ate only half the fish, or no fish at all, it wouldn't budge levels much. Only if mom cut out all fish for five years before, do you see a really substantial drop in infant levels. So that's the fish consumption caveat. The only scenarios that produced a significant impact on children's exposures were cried mothers to eliminate fish from their diets completely for five years before their children were conceived. Substituting plant foods instead of fish would reduce prenatal and breastfeeding exposures by 37% each, and subsequent childhood exposures by 23%. So a complete ban on fish consumption may be preferable to targeted, life-stage-based fish consumption advisories.  In this recent study, researchers measured the levels of pesticides like DVT, PCBs, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, and toxic elements like mercury and lead in a large sample of farmed and wild caught seafood, and in general they found farmed was worse. Think of the suspect as farmed and dangerous. The measured levels of most organic and many inorganic pollutants were higher in the farmed seafood products, and consequently intake levels for the consumer if such products were consumed. So, for example, this is for polycyclic hydrocarbons, persistent pesticides and PCBs, significantly more contamination in all the farmed fish samples for all the contaminants, the salmon and sea bass, though it didn't seem to matter for crayfish and the wild caught mussels were actually worse. And if you split adult and child consumers into only eating farmed seafood or only eating wild caught seafoods, the level of pollutant exposure would be significantly worse from the farmed seafood. Overall, they investigated a total of 59 pollutants and toxic elements and taking all these data as a whole, and based on the rates of consumption of fish and seafood in the population in Spain, where the researchers hailed from, the results indicate that a theoretical consumer who chose to consume only farmed fish would be exposed to levels of pollutants about twice as high than if they would have chosen instead wild caught fish. So, you could eat twice the amount if you stuck to wild caught. Easier said than done, though. Mislabeling rates for fish and other seafood in the U.S. is between 30 and 38%, so the average fraud rate is like 1 in 3.


Hi, I'm Bob Johnson. I'm one of the medical librarians at the biomedical library at UCLA. This tutorial will talk a little bit about using PubMed. If you're connecting to PubMed from off campus, make sure you're connecting using either the UCLA VPN or the MedNet VPN. Either should work. There are many options for finding citations using PubMed. In fact, the database makes it really easy to find something. What I hope this tutorial helps you learn is that it's a little harder to find the right thing, the exact thing that you want to find. So we're going to be talking on about some basic features of using PubMed. We'll talk about using the advanced search function, using Boolean operators, using some of the limits in PubMed, and signing on with my NCBI. Now, logging on to PubMed with my NCBI is not necessary, but it can be useful for saving search results and search strategies. Click login to either login or sign up for an account. This is what the login page looks like. And at the bottom, there's a sign up. You can sign up for an account there. So I blogged into PubMed and I've started my search. I'm looking for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome or POTS. When I type in POTS, the database gives me all sorts of options. And so I've selected POTS syndrome. I clicked that from the options. And this is what my search results look like. I have 921 results. And just looking at the first few, I can see that this search looks good. I'm happy with it. And I want to save the search so that I can refer to it in the future. So in order to do that, I'll click create alert. And then I get the alerts page and it's the search has a name. It shows me what search terms I've used. It asks me if I want to use email updates and I don't. So I clicked no. And then I clicked save. Now when I go to my NCBI dashboard, you can see that POTS syndrome is one of the searches that I've used. And there are zero new results, which makes sense because I just ran that search today. So there shouldn't be anything new from what I just searched. So here in POTS, in PubMed, we're looking at the POTS syndrome results. And if I want to look more closely at what the database did, I can click advanced. So I click the advanced link. And now I can see exactly what the database did. Using the advanced screen allows me to know precisely how PubMed is using the terms we entered. So it looked for POTS in all fields. Just looked for that POTS acronym. But then you notice it did something different with syndrome. It expanded it and gave me all these permutations of the word syndrome, including something called syndrome mesh terms. Mesh just stands for medical subject heading. So that's the official term used by the database. One way to use mesh terms is to get ideas for searching your content, right? So I used the word POTS, POTS syndrome. But you can see that in the mesh heading, POTS is postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. So I'm going to try searching using those exact words. And it's actually a good practice to use the full word rather than the acronyms. So I can add that to my query box in advanced search. Instead of just clicking search, I want to add to history so I can compare the numbers of results. So I add to history. And now you can see that my results are different, searching the full terms versus the acronym. And you can see that I have more results using the full terms. And I can use Boolean logic to combine these results and try to figure out where there's overlap or if they're giving me all the same results. Boolean logic is just a mathematical way of comparing sets of data sets of information. So when we use and we can use we're looking for concepts that are overlapping where both concepts show up. So in this example, fever and acetaminophen or probably treating fever with acetaminophen. We're looking at fever. We've got one set of results. We're looking at acetaminophen. There's another set. And we want the overlap. That's what and does for us. It gives us that overlap where we get both concepts appearing. So we also know that acetaminophen and Tylenol are synonyms. So if I'm looking for acetaminophen or Tylenol, I don't want the overlap because I either one works. I want either of them, either or right so this is or gives us all those results. So with our, with our example, we're looking for postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. So I can click the ellipsis those three buttons and say add query that adds it to the search box. And then I can say add with or my next search pot syndrome. And that search gives us 1400 results. So I can combine this with the word COVID, because I'm really looking for pot syndrome with COVID. So I put the word and it with COVID, and now I can run that search. So we've got, you can see that the searches run in the upper search box it's right there. And we have 145 results. If I want to narrow these results down. I can use the limits or filters, which are on the left hand side. So the filters come preset. But if I want more or additional filters, I can click additional filters and that will give me more ways to search whether it's using age groups or different specific languages, or other article types. So I've got ahead and limited my initial search with this, which is pots or the words postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. So we've got 1500 results roughly, we limit it to review articles, and that gives us 273 results. So that's using advanced searching, Boolean logic, our filters, and our my NCBI account. So I hope that that helps answer some of your questions about PubBed. If you've got more questions, please feel free to let us know. And thanks very much.


No, it's between 10 breaks. No, I didn't. Why? What? What? What? What? What are you doing? What are you doing? You haven't done it. Oh! I'm jacking you first. He's leaving. I'm going to slow down. I'm going to dance slightly, yeah. Thank you. Nice cut intro.


Hello, my name is Anishman, 27 years old, and I'm from Tunisia. I've recently completed my 120 hour test for course with tutor support and videos, and I have to say it was great. At the beginning of the course, I was a little bit afraid to complete all the 20 units, but later I found out that the course is very smooth and enjoyable. I was so impressed by the materials offered in the course, which were so comprehensible, supportive, and covering a variety of topics, and I would recommend anyone who is thinking about taking a tougher course to choose RTTT, because it's the best. Well, good luck for everyone, and thank you RTTT, thank you.
