Hey Psych2Go family! We at Psych2Go want to wish you all safety and health during these crazy times. We've got lots and lots of videos on the way to keep you company. We're in this together. By practicing social distancing at the moment, you're being responsible by staying in and doing your part and helping the situation out there. Biding by the World Health Organization and Center for Disease Control guidelines is definitely a good thing. But being stuck inside by yourself without your daily routine can lead to being overwhelmed by worries about your health, family, finances, and the rest of the world. Which is bound to take a toll on your mental health. The best thing to do is try to cope effectively. Here are 8 things to remember during the coronavirus pandemic. 1. Move Your Body Have you been planning on starting exercise for a while now? It's a great way to release your body's happy pill, the endorphins, to cope with the world's current period of stress. YouTube is filled with workout videos and yoga videos that you can follow along with, and many of them require no equipment. Personal trainers are using Instagram Live to give free classes throughout the day. If you'd rather go at your own pace, Pinterest is filled with exercise lists and diagrams and ideas. 2.  Do similar stories about fights over toilet paper or complaints about boredom keep popping up before you in a loop? It's mentally draining to be reminded of such things, so be careful. When you pick up your phone or open your laptop, be mindful of how it's affecting you. Using it as entertainment is definitely fine, and let's face it, it can be fun to see what our friends are up to or laugh at funny or relevant memes, but be aware of how you manage the stress it can bring. 3. Use Technology to Connect Emotionally Have you been keeping in touch with your loved ones virtually? Being physically distanced doesn't mean we have to be emotionally distanced too. You can still be close to others by talking to them on the phone and sending each other text messages. You can still entertain each other by playing games against each other online, and video calling can keep each other company virtually. Many people are getting creative by creating chat rooms and channels where they can hang out together over the internet, while playing the same things or mixing the same drink. Reaching out to others in the same situation as you can do a great deal to boost morale and feel connected. 4.  You feel the novelty of that experience wearing off now? Let's face it, it felt good to laze around in PJs once in a while, but now the monotony is just making you dull. So in addition to simply getting up according to your normal routine, getting dressed normally can also work to improve your mental health. It signals to your brain that it's time to start the day.  The old adage, if you look good, you feel good, rings particularly true in this situation. 5.   An article by Dr. Maxine Barish-Redden talks about how an inadequate diet can worsen or even lead to stress and depression. It details how sugar and processed foods are associated with inflammation in the body and brain, and therefore may contribute to issues regarding mood. So when everything else is chaotic and unpredictable, fueling your bodies with what it needs is a great way to help yourself cope better. 6.  Self-care is simply anything we do that helps us relax, remote emotional well-being, or show us love to ourselves. It can mean mindful meditation for some, journaling or coloring for others, or even preparing and enjoying a healthy meal. This way you can give back to yourself. Do whatever you define as self-care and let your mind heal while the world is trying to do the same. 7. Limit Exposure to News and Virus Updates Have you been consuming news more than you usually do out of concern? People are panic-scrolling for hours and it's becoming a problem. It's good to want to stay informed about the global situation as it helps you feel in control and secure. But politicians, medical professionals, and experts, and people on the internet don't have all the answers you want them to have right now. So try putting your phone away, stepping away from your laptop, and distracting yourself in a healthier way. 8. Focus on What You Can Control The uncertainty that comes with the pandemic is difficult, indeed. But we know we can control our own actions, and we know staying home and practicing social distancing is our best chance at stopping the spread of the virus. Being patient with yourself is also something important you can control. For example, if you're struggling with working or studying from home, remind yourself that it's an adjustment, and that sometimes just getting through the day is an accomplishment. You can control what movies or shows you watch, and choose to watch more positive and unblipting things. You can control how grateful you are, and choose to count the blessings you still have in your life. Remembering the little things you can still do for yourself gives you confidence that you'll be able to survive the challenges you're facing right now. Did these points help you understand what you're feeling right now, and why? Was it helpful in pointing out ways to change your routine in a useful way? Do let us know in the comments below. Also, share with those you think might benefit from it as well. Stay safe and stay tuned. Thanks for watching.


In this video, I explain the solution of simultaneous algebraic equation by LU-decomposition method. Learning outcomes. At the end of this session, the student will be able to solve the simultaneous algebraic equation by LU-decomposition method. A-decomposition is also called Kraut's method. This is a direct method. Consider the system of equations a1x plus b1y plus c1z is equal to d1, a2x plus b2y plus c2z is equal to d2, a3x plus b3y plus c3z is equal to d3. Call it equation 1. given system of equation can be put in the matrix form as x is equal to b, where a is the coefficient matrix, x is the column unknown matrix, b is the constant column matrix here. That is a is equal to a 1, b 1, c 1, a 2, b 2, c 2, a 3, b 3, c 3 and x is the column unknown matrix that is x, y, z and b is equal to the constant column matrix that is d 1, d 2, d 3. In this method the coefficient matrix A is decomposed or factorized into the product of the two matrix L, U, which are the lower and upper triangular matrix respectively. The diagonal element of either L or U can be unity for a convenience. Let the coefficient matrix is A is equal to a 1, b 1, c 1, a 2, b 2, c 2, a 3, b 3, c 3. We express this in the form A is equal to L U call it is equation 3 here, where A is the coefficient matrix a 1, b 1, c 1, a 2, b 2, c 2, a 3, b 3, c 3 which is equal to L lower triangular matrix here means all the above diagonals are become 0 and defined as L 1 1, 0 0, L 2 1, L 2 2, 0, L 3 1, L 3 2, L 3 3 into upper triangular matrix means the all the below diagonals are become 0 and here all the diagonal elements are to be considered as a unity that is 1, U 1 2, U 1 3, 0 1, U 2 3, 0 0 1. Now, taking the product of the lower and upper triangular matrix and the coefficient matrix A become the first true becomes L 1 1, L 1 1, U 1 2, L 1 1, U 1 3.  Equating the corresponding elements on the both side we obtain the value of L and U using equation 3 into we get that is L U into x is equal to be L into U x is equal to be call it is equation 4. Now, you have to put U x is equal to y that is call it is equation 5 y is the column unknown matrix that is y 1 y 2 y 3. Now, equation 4 becomes L into y is equal to be call it is equation 6 here. Now, using equation 6 y can be found substituting y in equation 5 we get U x is equal to y we obtain the required x here being the exact the solution. First the video find the product of the matrix A x is equal to 0 where A is equal to 2 3 0 6 x is equal to column matrix that is x y. I hope all of you will get the result that solution A x is equal to 0 that is A is the matrix of order 2 2 3 0 6 x is the column matrix x y is equal to 0 0. Now, taking the product of the matrix 2 x plus 3 y and 6 y is equal to 0 0 equating the corresponding elements we get 2 x plus 3 y is equal to 0 6 y is equal to 0 implies y is equal to 0 by back substituting the x is also is equal to 0. Now, come to an example use the L U decomposition method solve the system of equation 2 x plus y plus 4 z is equal to 12 4 x plus 11 y minus z is equal to 33 8 x minus 3 y plus 2 z is equal to 20 solution. The given system of equation can be written in the matrix form as A x is equal to b where A is the coefficient matrix it differed as the A is equal to 1 4 4 11 minus 1 8 minus 3 2 and x is the column matrix that is x y z and b is the column matrix that is 12 33 and 20. In this method the coefficient matrix A is decomposed or factorized into the product of the 2 matrices L U which are the lower and upper triangular matrices respectively that L U is equal to A L is lower triangular matrix it differed as L 11 0 0 L 2 1 L 2 2 0 L 3 1 L 3 2 L 3 3 in 2 U is the upper triangular matrix that is 1 U 1 2 U 1 3 0 1 U 2 3 0 0 1 is equal to the matrix A there is 2 1 4 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 4 11 minus 1 8 minus 3 2. Now, I am taking the product of the lower and upper triangular matrix we get the matrix as L 11 L 11 into U 1 2 L 11 U 1 3 the second 2 becomes L 2 1 L 2 1 into U 1 2 plus L 2 2 L 2 1 into U 1 3 plus L 2 2 into U 2 3 the third row becomes L 3 1 L 3 1 into U 1 2 plus L 3 2 L 3 1 into U 1 3 plus L 3 2 into U 2 3 plus L 3 3 is equal to 2 1 4 4 11 minus 1 8 minus 3 2 equities the corresponding coefficient on both side that is L 11 is equal to 2 that and L 11 into U 1 2 is equal to 1 means substitute the value of L 11 and simplify the U 1 2 is equal to 1 by 2 that is L 11 into U 1 3 is equal to 4 implies U 1 3 is equal to 2 L 2 1 is equal to 4 L 2 1 into U 1 3 is equal to 4 L 2 1 into U 1 2 plus L 2 2 that is substitute in the value of L 2 1 and U 1 2 and solving that is L 2 2 is equal to 9 L L 2 1 into U 1 3 plus L 2 2 into U 2 3 is equal to minus 1 on solving this that is implies U 2 3 is equal to minus 1 L 3 1 is equal to 8 L 3 1 into U 1 2 plus L 3 2 simplify it becomes the L 3 2 is equal to minus 7 L 3 1 into U 1 3 plus L 3 2 into U 2 3 plus L 3 3 is equal to 2 this implies L 3 3 is equal to minus 21 consider A x is equal to B from equation 1 but L is equal to U x from equation 1 to that is L U into x is equal to B that can be written as L into U x is equal to B call it is equation 3 put U x is equal to y call it is equation 4 where y is equal to the column unknown matrix y 1 y 2 y 3 now from equation 3 L y is equal to B L is the lower triangular matrix that is 2 0 0 4 9 0 8 minus 7 minus 21 into y y 1 is equal to minus 7 minus 7 y 2 y 3 and B 12 33 20 and taking the product on the left hand side it becomes the 2 y 1 4 y 1 plus 9 y 2 8 y 1 minus 7 y 2 minus 21 y 3 is equal to 12 33 20 equating the corresponding elements on both sides we get 2 y 1 is equal to 12 this implies y 1 is equal to 6 and 4 y 1 plus 9 y 2 is equal to 33 the implies y 2 is equal to 1 8 y 1 minus 7 y 2 minus 21 y 3 is equal to 20 implies y is equal to 1 substituting the values of y then equation 4 becomes U x is equal to y U is the upper triangular matrix and x is the column unknown matrix that is 1 1 by 2 2 0 1 minus 1 0 0 1 into x y z is equal to 6 1 1 now taking the product on the L U and x that is x plus 1 by 2 y plus 2 z y minus z z is equal to 6 1 1 equating the corresponding elements on both sides we get x plus 1 by 2 into y plus 2 z is equal to 6 y minus z is equal to 1 and z is equal to 1 by the back substituting we get z is equal to 1 y is equal to 2 and x is equal to 3 thus x is equal to 2 and z is equal to 3 y is equal to 2 z is equal to 1 reference numerical methods by B.

Hi guys! What is up? Welcome to my channel. So for today's video, I'm going to be reviewing and demoing the brand new Fenty Cheeks Out Freestyle Cream Bronzer and Blushes. So if you are interested in seeing how they were getting some tips on application and everything else I have to offer, then just keep watching. By the way, I don't have anything on my face yet. I'm going to be demoing it for you guys in this review. But yes, Fenty has finally released Cream Bronzers and Cream Blushes. I was so excited for these because I always felt like their matchsticks had so much potential to run the beauty industry. They just had the most unique colors, the most fun finishes, and just like a great range overall, so versatile. But their formula was so dry that it just, ugh, if they reformulated those, I genuinely believe that they could be a huge heavy hitter in the industry. But you know what? Unfortunately, they aren't dry and nobody really uses them, right? Hardly. I barely see anybody use them. So I was so excited to see what they came out with as far as this cream formulation. So I ended up picking up two bronzers and three blushes. I'm going to tell you the mistakes I made, some shades I would have got instead of some other shades that I got, and just how I prefer application and all of that. Now, if you want an extremely in-depth review and tips also on application, how to use cream products in general, and just an overview of all 10 shades, please check out my friend Kelsey Brianna J's video. She also has a deeper complexion that myself as well, so you also get to view the shades on a deeper complexion versus on my little pasty complexion. So definitely want to direct you towards her video because hers was extremely informative and very helpful. Because in this video, I'm going to be applying these cream products based on how I personally like to apply them and what works for me. There were a couple ways that I found worked better than others, so it's not just one type of application, but I'll explain as we go. Obviously, there hasn't been very many releases at this time for good reason, of course. So this Fenty launch is one of the bigger launches right now, probably the biggest, just because it's kind of crickets right now, as it should be. But that's why I wanted to cover this. Even though it's a couple days later than I would have liked to have gotten this video up, I can't complain about the shipping. It is what it is. Everything, the world is going crazy right now. So I finally have them. I'm very excited to share with you guys some useful information. Let's quickly go over what I actually do have in my possession and the colors you'll see in action. So I picked up two of the Cheeks Out Freestyle cream bronzers, and I have amber and butter biscuit. And then I picked up three of the Cheeks Out blushes. So I have Petal Poppin, Cool Berry, and Rose Latte. For comparison, the cream bronzers, they have a gold packaging with the cream name on them. They're that kind of typical Fenty Octagon packaging. And then the cream blushes, they also say cream, but it's white. And as you can see, these blushes are like minuscule. They're so tiny. They're adorable. I was definitely not expecting them to be so tiny. The bronzers have 6.23 grams of product, whereas the blushes have 3 grams of product. The bronzers are 32 and the blushes are 20. Honestly, I'm surprised at the price of the blushes. I think they're quite affordable. I mean, they are still $20, of course, but just based on how much luxury makeup I buy, $20 is not bad. I think I would have preferred a little less product for the bronzer than to pay $32, but that's just me. So let's actually get into the product. I'm going to start off by demoing the bronzers. Currently, I have zero bits of powder on my face. I just thought it would be easier in case I needed to take anything off to demo different colors, different techniques. The formula of these products are extremely emollient. And honestly, I just want to put them on top of powder. I feel like they can get really patchy and gross with powder underneath. Just with any other cream, like I would suggest make sure you don't set your face before you apply these. I'm going to zoom you guys in so you can see a little better. So we're going to talk about the two colors that are picked up. So in the line, it looks like there are seven shades for the bronzers. I picked out amber and butter biscuit. So I wasn't sure if I wanted butter biscuit, which was number two for fair to light skin tones, or macchiato, which is number three for light to medium skin tones. What I did know was I wanted amber because it is described as a contour shade. It is a cool undertone for fair skin tones. I don't have a fair skin tone. I'm more light to medium, but I was like a really cool specifically contour shade. I was expecting it to work as a contour shade for light skin tones. She's gray. Like this is the color of cement. And it's just not what I was expecting. I mean, to be fair on the website, it's a contour cool undertone for fair skins. I felt like they could have specified a little bit more about how gray it was. So for a color like this, it is going to work on very, very, very fair skin tones, almost like translucent. But honestly, unless you're a makeup artist, I just don't find this to be very easy for a consumer. Even for me, like technically, yeah, I'm a makeup artist, but I wouldn't use this color. I really wouldn't. On the website, it just doesn't look as gray. It looks like it's going to be a little bit more brown. And then when I put it on my skin, she's gray and it's not a flattering look. So just beware. Okay. I'm warning you now. I learned the hard way. And then as far as the Buda Biscuit shade, this is a decent shade for me. I definitely think it's for fair to light skin tones. After playing around with this, I think macchiato would have been a better match for me, but I can make this work from the information that I've collected from other reviews. These bronzers do run a little bit more on the sheer side, so it might be best to kind of shade up if you are kind of battling between two shades. So I might actually go back and order macchiato. The Biscuit does work for me and you'll see, but I just apply it differently than I would if I had macchiato. So we are going to start off with Amber. Now, as far as the consistency of these cream products go, they are very emollient. They don't turn to a powder finish. They stay as creams. So you might want to set your bronzer with a little bit of extra added bronzer on top. And when I say light, I mean a light amount, like tap off your brush and then just lightly use it to set the bronzer. Otherwise, you're going to look crazy because the powder and all that pigment is going to stick to this cream. So just use with caution once you set it, but I'm going to show you Amber, which like I said, this was not a good call on my part. This is for a very small amount of people. I'm going to use my sponge, okay? And I'm just going to put it right into the hollow of my cheek. Now, the reason this is so cool is because grey tone colors, cool tone colors, they mimic shadows. Whereas bronzers technically are just meant to mimic warmth and the sun. So the shadows are what is actually going to cut that definition into your skin. Now you will find with bronzers, yeah, you can say they contour and bronze at the same time, but when you play with really cool tones, that is the basic artistic concept of creating shadows and really changing the face. This pulls very grey on me if I were to use anything more dense than a sponge. And the sponge is about as undense as it comes. I start to look dirty. If you guys saw my Instagram, I put the grey right down the middle and it looked like cement was on my face. So I'm just going to keep it as minimal as possible. But you can kind of see that small shadow that was created right in the hollow of my cheek. I honestly don't really see much use for this unless I scrape some out and mix it with a browner color to cool that color down. And then I feel more comfortable actually shading in my face with this. TBH, I don't really like it. I'm going to use a synthetic ABH A26 brush. Okay, this is a blending brush. So it's not going to be as harsh. It's just grey. I look dirty. I look muddy. Don't make the same mistake that I did. This is grey. Not like a contour. It's grey. Now let's get into something a little bit more positive. The butter biscuit. Now like I said, I've noticed that this doesn't have the most amount of pigmentation.   For me, I find sponges to be my favorite way to apply cream products. If you choose to use sponges, make sure you are constantly washing and cleaning them because it can get nasty up in a cream. Okay? It can. So please wash your sponge. I wash mine every single use. Just keep a little bit of soap by your sink and rinse it off every time you go to wet it anyways. So as you can see by the biscuit, like it does work on me. I wish I got a shade darker, but twisting that sponge to really get the product and pouncing it in really creates a natural shade to my face, which I really, really like. I just like sponges. I feel like they push into the skin better using a patting motion. It's not going to move your foundation. This encourages you to use a patting motion and you just have a larger surface area to really evenly apply this product. Don't use your fingers to apply a cream bronzer. There's too much surface area that you need to cover and it will become uneven. So that's why I recommend a sponge because it's a large surface area. Because this shade is not as pigmented as I would like, I am going to show you with a brush. Typically, like I said, I'm a sponge gal, but this calls for a brush. This is the Blinged Brushes F12.  So I'm going to pat it into here. Make sure it's a clean brush, please. And so this way you are going to get a little bit more pigmentation because it's more dense. It's picking up more product. Try as hard as you can to continue to use those patting motions so that you don't disrupt the foundation. So that's how I find myself able to get a little bit more pigmentation from that. But still, I like to go in with my sponge and make sure that's all softened and it looks airbrushed into my skin. I do like this formula. I think it's nice. It's very emollient. It blends out very easily.  So this isn't my favorite cream formula, but it certainly does get the job done and it leaves the skin with a very pretty, dewy finish. Now, when I would use this over those other two brands that I just mentioned, it's more so for the color. So Butta Biscuit is a lot lighter than the other two that I have, so that is when I would use it. When I want really light warmth added to my face. So overall, I think the cream bronzers are okay. There's nothing really bad I can say about it. I think because they are a really creamy formula and they're not the most pigmented, there is a bit or can be a bit of a learning curve to it, but I don't notice it disrupting my foundation or anything. So she gets the job done. Let's move on to the blushes. These are, of course, what I was most excited about. I love blush. I love a cream blush. Now, I think you guys have seen all of the colors in the range. She has very unique shades. She has 10 shades. I picked out three. So I picked out Petal Popping, which is a soft kind of baby pink. I love pink blushes. Those are my blush colors of preference. And then I picked up Cool Berry because I do a lot of cool toned looks. So I thought that this would be perfect. And then I picked out Rose Latte, which is a little bit more of a neutral everyday kind of blush. It looks really intimidating in the pan. So here are the swatches so you can see in the order that I just named Petal Popping, Cool Berry, and Rose Latte. As you can see just from the swatches, they're very, very shiny. And they have that finish on the skin as well. They are very plumping to the skin and they add just a lot of glow and do to the skin. So just be prepared for that. For me, the best way that I found to apply these are with the butt end of a sponge as well. You can use your fingers. Fingers do a nice job of warming the product up and spreading it into the skin, giving you a bit more pigmentation. However, I just love the even application that a sponge gives. I will show you, for example, using a stippling brush. I do enjoy stippling brushes as well for blush application, but I love me a good sponge. So I'm going to start off by demoing Petal Popping for you. I'm going to use the brush first. Just so you can see how that works and just very lightly tap it out. Now, when you are using a stippling brush, this is how I feel that I get the most natural and lightweight application. As you can see, patting, not swiping, I refuse to disrupt the foundation. That's one of my biggest pet peeves about cream products. If it disrupts my foundation, it goes in the garbage. So this is a really nice soft pink and it looks really healthy on the cheek. As you can see, it does still carry that sheen to the face, which I think is beautiful, but it can be bad for those of you with oily skin. So I'm going to clean off my sponge really quick. I'm just going to very lightly tap into Petal Popping just to kind of show you and add pigmentation. If you use more of a fat synthetic brush, you're going to get more coverage with the blush. I just think I have so much more control when I use a sponge. Really, really pretty. I like Petal Popping a lot. Great everyday kind of color. So let's move on to Cool Berry right here. I'm just going to go straight in with my sponge for this. I lightly twisted once and this one packs a lot of color. So just be careful with this sponge. I got some pigmentation. If you use a brush, it's going to be a lot. These don't give really, really heavy coverage as far as pigmentation goes. It's still kind of sheer, but you can pack the color on, I found. So you have a lot of playroom when it comes to how much blush you want on your cheek. They are buildable and I really like that. And so here is Cool Berry. It's a little bit more of a mobby tone to it. I didn't pack these on. So you really can't tell a huge difference. But I can tell here in person. This one I'm going to definitely go to for a more cool tone look. Alright, so let's move on to the last one. Rose Latte. This one I find pulls a little bit more warm on the face. I think that this really mimics natural cheek color very, very well. So if you like that, I just played in the snow. I think this does a pretty good job of mimicking that. Like this is one that I would like to put over the center of my nose. I know I already have a little bit of blush on, but it's fine. You can layer. So I'm going to put just a bit here. So as you can see that instantly like brightened my face. I feel like I look like I just played in the snow or went for a run. I'm going to put some right in the center of my nose here. I know it's a bit much. This is a blush step. It's fine. I promise. Oh my gosh. I love this color. This was not what I was expecting based on what was in the pan. But this one really just makes it look like you just went for a run. This is the most actual like natural human like cheek color that they have. And all three of these have the same really emollient, shiny, not sticky texture to them as well.  My cheeks don't feel sticky, but you can tell it hasn't dried down. I'm going to zoom out real quick and we're going to talk about wear time. So as somebody with dry skin, I really enjoy the consistency of these products. I think it really compliments my skin type very well. My oils all mesh well with this cream. However, if you have any type of oily skin, please set these products down because they don't set down themselves. I see these being a great product just to throw on for the summer. But if you are looking for any sort of wear time and you're wearing coverage on your face, you can set them. You could go through with a translucent powder. You're going to lose the glow that these cream products get. So that's also something you have to battle with. Like I love the glow that these products give me. So for that reason I'm not going to set it. But I have to know I can't be going out for an important event for a long day. These are just like summer throw-on kind of things for me. If you want to set them, you can use translucent powder. You're going to lose some of that glow. For the bronzer side, I would say lightly tap into a bronzer, tap it off, and pat right over it. You don't want too much of the color to stick to your face. It's more so just to set that bronzer. If you're looking to keep the glow, I would go for a glowy bronzer to set it. Same things with the blush. Now, if you really want a heavy blush, go gung-ho with your powder blush because it's going to stick to that color. But if you want something really light, I would take a glowy blush, pat it in once, and just brush over it just to kind of set that face. A good mattifying setting spray. And that is how you're going to get the long wear out of this. But definitely just be careful if you have oily skin. Do what you need to do to make it stay. I have dry skin. I love how natural this looks. I'm going to put up with a little bit of shininess because of this. I just love how natural and plump these make my skin look just so skin-like. So many of you guys are going to like this product. That is all I have for today's video. I hope you guys enjoyed it. I hope you found it helpful. Let me know if you picked up any colors. I don't know if I should keep Amber or not. It just was not what I was expecting. I definitely think I will be picking up Macchiato. But anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed this video. Thank you guys so much for spending your morning with me. Or whenever time of the day you are watching this. If you aren't subscribed to my channel, I hope you take the time to do so. And I will see you guys in the next one. Bye, guys. Have a good one.


All right, well good morning everyone. Welcome to the State Operations Center and we're going to give you a quick update on the wildfire response and the latest efforts across the state that's involved in assisting all those that have been impacted by these wildfires. I'm Mark Guilarducci, Director of the Governor's Office of Emergency Services here in California and we're going to hear from a number of other public safety leaders to give you an update specifically on what has been going on and what the plan is moving forward. After today's press conference we will take your questions. Let me start off by saying again how concerned we are for the communities that have been impacted, express our sympathy for those who have had loss and we know this is a very stressful time and many people have lost their homes and we are going to be working closely with the county, the counties that have had this loss and we're working with our federal partners as well in being able to step in and assist where we can. We know it's been a stressful situation and we'll continue to think about all of you in every decision that we make. Here at the State Operations Center we are running a 24-7 operation. There's some multi-agencies. Everybody who has a responsibility and responding to these fires is represented here at every level of government and this center will remain fully activated until we are mitigating the situation completely. So we're continuing to be all hands on deck. Currently we have thousands of state, local and federal firefighters on the line, over 13,000 and several hundred emergency management and law enforcement as well as over 1200 national guard assets to support local authorities through this period of time. You'll know more about that when we get specific briefings in a second. We've also reached out to our neighboring states and also out of country for additional assistance which is arriving as we speak and we're very appreciative of our partner states for being able to provide these resources to us. So at this point let me do this. I'll turn it over to our partnering cooperating agencies. We've been working here as a one-team effort to ensure that the state is completely coordinated and all of the key resources are being met. So with that I'm going to start off with the director of the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, Cal Fire Chief Ken Pemlott. Thank you Mark and good morning. So since this fire siege began weeks ago in July we've been tracking 16 major fires in the state. Since this began over 320,000 acres have burned in the siege. Currently we have over 32,000 residents that remain evacuated on various fires within the state. As director Geller Ducci indicated we have 13,000 firefighters on the fire lines just in California. Now this fire challenge is not just limited to California. The entire western United States including south into Texas is experiencing significant fire conditions and there are over 27,000 firefighters on the fire lines throughout the western United States. So almost half of those are right here in California. We are as was indicated engaging in support from 17 other states from as far away as Maine and Florida. We have all the aviation assets that are available in the system are not only deployed throughout California but all of these other states and so we continue to coordinate every day actually every hour throughout the day. It's a very dynamic process moving aircraft and resources from fire to fire and sharing those critical resources not only within California but with our partners in other states who are also experiencing some very difficult, difficult conditions. We will continue to look what our needs are. Our goal here in particular is to ensure we're planning for the the days ahead, not what's happening today, but what's going to be happening in the days to come to ensure we have resources on the road so that we can meet the threat that's coming down the road. We're only at the beginning of August. We've been seeing extreme fire conditions early in the year. These kinds of conditions, you know, in past decades, we may have seen a fire like we're seeing now in August or September. We are routinely now seeing fires reach 100,000 acres several times in one month and it's in July. So we have a long way to go in this fire season. And as we saw last year, fire season can go right up through December in into the early parts of the winter. So we're prepared in this for the long haul. Cal fire is bringing on additional seasonal firefighters. We're in the process of bringing them back as we speak. They will not only provide additional capacity on our fire engines, but will provide some opportunity to provide relief so that we can consist. Excuse me, sustain this rhythm throughout the remainder of the fire season. We also look for initial attack. Our goal is to keep fires small and in coordination with not only Cal fire, but all of our local government fire departments throughout California, our federal partners, the Forest Service, National Park Service, all the firefighting agencies we are in a seamless movement and coordination of resources to ensure that folks get to where they need to get and keep these fires small. So with that, I'd like to turn it over to the California Highway Patrol Commissioner Warren Stanley. Thank you, Chief. And good morning. As far as the CHP's role in these fires, we're in three phases. We are assisting with traffic control evacuations and also patrol of areas that have been evacuated in order to keep looters out. Earlier in the fire, we had almost 200 personnel assigned statewide to the various fires, particularly at the car fire. Earlier this week, we had 138 personnel assigned to that fire. We've been able to draw that number down because some of the actions that have been taken in the fire and so we drawn them down. Now we have 58 personnel assigned to that fire specifically to the car fire. I just want to mention and we've made sure this information out there. Interstate five through the redding area is open. Although if you have to travel there, we ask that you travel through there, be even more cautious because we have law enforcement personnel and more importantly, our fire department personnel moving in and out of there with equipment to help mitigate this fire. And to the members of the public who have been impacted by this fire, we very much appreciate your support. We know it's been very difficult for you. There have been a number of people who have lost homes or had to be evacuated and we're very mindful of that. And as the director and chief Pymod said, we're doing everything that we can to mitigate these fires in order to get the people back back into their communities. And with that, I'll turn it over to my counterpart from the National Guard, Major Baldwin. Thanks, Commissioner. I'm Major General Dave Baldwin at the California National Guard. As director Gil Ducci mentioned, we have over 1200 personnel from the California National Guard assisted by soldiers and airmen from both the Nevada National Guard and the New Mexico National Guard, providing a broad range of military support to civil authorities to help deal with these fires. We're fighting the fires on the ground and in the air. We're providing manned and unmanned surveillance systems to assist Cal Fire with fire mapping and to assist OES and FEMA with damaged assessments. We are also providing support to law enforcement in the forms of military police and Air National Guard security police officers that are providing looting deterrents. They're also assisting with repopulation efforts and I'll be followed by our commander in chief, Governor Brown. You've heard there's a tremendous effort fighting these fires and I want to personally thank all the firefighters who are on the line. The members of Cal Fire, also the National Guard and the thousands of inmates who are also online fighting to protect lives and bring these fires to a quick close to the extent that's at all possible. It is very serious. We've seen the lives that have been lost and I expressed my sympathy for that, but assure people that whatever resources are needed, we're putting them there. We did allocate money in the budget for these kinds of contingencies and that money is there to do exactly what it's doing. So yes, this is serious. Fires are now a more part of our ordinary experience. The predictions that things would get drier and hotter are occurring and that will continue. We're in quite a cycle, but the predictions that I see that the more serious predictions of warming and fires to occur later in the century, 2040 or 2050, they're now occurring in real time, and you can expect, unfortunately, that to keep intensifying in California and throughout the Southwest. We're part of that process of the Mediterranean climate that is being impacted by the changing weather. So we'll be glad to take whatever questions on this and anything else. Governor Brown. Yeah. Fire season is longer than ever. It's hotter out there. What do you see in the next couple of months? Is this the first of a big fire? Are we going to see more big fires? Well, you know, I don't have a crystal ball here, but I would would not be surprised if there were more fires. Obviously, they give me more fires. It's drier and you get the soil is drying, the vegetation is drying. That makes for perfect kindling. And then these wind events, wind storms, even tornado type behavior are occurring. Some of this is unprecedented and we're learning as we go. But we're in a new normal. We're in a drought that will continue. Now, whether you technically call it a drought, that's a matter for the weather people. But I would suspect there'll be more fires to come and more fires each year for a very long time because it's going to be a while before we shift the weather back to where historically was. Well, we have a forest management task force to do plan, you know, plan burnings to thin out the forest. There's also, you know, there are a number of things in both in warning and having enough trained personnel being ready. So there's lots of practice. People are doing everything they can. But nature is very powerful and we're not on the side of nature. We're fighting nature with the amount of material we're putting in the environment. And that material traps heat and the heat fosters fires and the fires keep burning. So that's where we are and we will have to mitigate and the forest task force is moving in that direction. But I think from in the years to come, you're going to see a lot more expenditure on prevention and adaptation and helping people avoid these kind of fires or escape from them. Well, there's money in this year's budget. We're enjoying the ninth year of recovery. So this is the period when money accumulates to its highest degree. Probably within a year or maybe slightly longer, that money will begin to diminish and not materialize because of the business cycle that will have the downturn. So we've got the money now. But I would say things will get much tighter in the next five years as the business cycle turns negative and as the fires continue. Now, maybe the fires will pause for a year or two, but over a decade or so, we're going to have more fire, more destructive fire, more billions that'll have to be spent on it, more adaptation, more prevention. So all that is the new normal that we have to face. So far, this fire activity is a small part of our very large budget, but it is a growing part and it will continue to grow as we adapt to the changing weather. In recent years, we've seen the actual towns and whole communities, and a lot of those folks are left trying to go back to loomscape. What's being done to allocate money to those people so they can get back on their face? Well, there's the federal emergency relief. There are various low interest loans, and there are various programs that are made available. This is going to become an increasing problem. California historically was not designed for 40 million people. It was designed for a few hundred thousand, and I know that because that was the number for eons, at least 12,000 years, maybe longer. No one ever thought to try to have 40 million people. That was just yesterday that we got that idea, and even 20 million is rather recent. So we're in a bold, unprecedented experiment with 40 million people and 32 million vehicles that burn flammable oil and gas. So we're going to have to adapt. We're going to change our technology. But in the meantime, we're going to spend a hell of a lot of money, and there is going to be a lot of unpleasant events and suffering as a result. For the past several years, what has been budgeted, the costs of these wildfires have exceeded what has been budgeted for the past several years. What more needs to be done to close that gap? Well, we have the money there. We have a rainy day fund. We're not down to our last dollar at this point, and we won't be for a long time. Even when things get tough, there's always available borrowings that can be made available. But we're being surprised. Every year is teaching the fire authorities new lessons. We're in uncharted territory. Since civilization emerged 10,000 years ago, we haven't had this kind of heat condition, and it's going to continue getting worse. That's the way it is. And some people don't want to accept that. And some people just outright deny it. But I don't say it with any great joy here. We're in for a really rough ride, and it's going to get expensive. It's going to get dangerous. And we have to apply all our creativity to making the best out of what is going to be an increasingly bad situation, and not just for California, but for people all over America and all over the world. When the legislature comes back next week, one of the things that's been talked about is wildfire prevention, wildfire liability. Could you sketch what your goal of them talking about that is? I know you've put out proposed language, but overarching, what do you want them to do on the topic? I want them to consider the proposal and take commentary from informed citizens. We have a whole change here, and the rules that are being followed were announced in one or two appellate opinions, but they don't represent the thoughtful and considered judgment of the California legislature. So that's why I've asked them to do. What is the proper rule of liability? How are we going to allocate these costs? If you say it all is the utility forever, there won't be utilities, there will just be public agencies, and it will all go through the tax system. So there's a lot of issues. People are on different sides, but my goal was to try to find a reasonable balance that would reward players, including utilities for doing the right thing, but make them liable when they didn't take the steps that common sense and prudence would warrant. Do you believe PG&E when they say they're near bankruptcy, if they have to pay out what they already are? That I can't tell. I've heard that from PG&E and I've heard trial lawyers and insurance companies who stand to benefit say the opposite. So these these are part of the legislative debate. But there is concern that we could lose our utilities. And if we do that, our whole program and trying to deal with renewable energy and mitigate climate change could be adversely affected. So these are all the issues that the legislature has to consider. And this is not, well, it is political, but it's more environmental and economic and finding the best way forward. And that's why I think the legislature should deal with it rather than a three judge appellate panel who writes a decision based on common law principles from 100 years ago. That, you know, they say that we're notifying people more and more through the 911 reverse operations who are going door to door. I think the people in Reading and the surrounding area worked very hard to get people out of the fire. But you know, we're not in a perfect world. The world has its has its complexity and its uncertainty. And we're living with an uncertainty and trying to do the best we can. And I think the people in the front lines are very amazing. The fact they were the firefighters were all that protective gear and they work in the heat. It's just amazing that they're what they do. So I'm very appreciative to that. And we'll continue to refine we meaning local and state and federal person, the safety personnel will continue improving as best they can.  According to Mr. Fire Chief here, no one ever knew about that. So we're getting new phenomenon. And that new phenomenon is we're in a new climate weather era. And so we have to learn. And yes, if we knew everything we're going to know in five years, we'd maybe have a different warning system. But we're learning as we go. Oh, yes, for sure. They've taken into account. It is being taken into account. Mother nature is taken into account. So carbines will record that fact with particularity. As far as the proposal, we we drafted it in a way that had there's possibilities for improvement. That's the legislative process. We put the ball in play. And now we expect thoughtful people to reflect on this. This is serious business. And how do you want to handle this? There's a lot of people who can tee off from their particular interest. But we want the legislature to represent all the people and sift through the various claims and we'll be part of that will help and give them the best thinking we can. Good morning. Kim Cigar, state prime rescue chief of government services. We would like to have more resources out on the ground. We're getting resources from local government. During the heat wave, they've also had a swing in EMS calls. So we haven't got as much as we'd like. I would tell you that we've gone out of state for additional resources. They've been coming into the state where they've been very timely in that side of the house. But I think the governor's clearly stated that in the new situation that we're dealing with, we could use more resources. And I think the one thing I would share with you is that at the local, state and federal level, we've been very good at moving resources from one incident to another just in the nick of time. And so I think the cooperation and coordination that's taking place is unprecedented than in the previous years and probably unprecedented than anywhere else in the nation or maybe the world. There's still some capacity. Local government is also holding back some of those resources for their own calls. And because they're also worried about additional fires in our own area. I couldn't give you an exact number. We'd have to get back to you. But there's probably a couple thousand just between federal and out of state state agencies and local government that have come into the state. Your governor in the 1970s, governor now, understand climate change. We understand that. But in terms of fire, wildfires and their impact on towns and communities, what is the biggest change you've seen between the time you were governor in the 70s and now? The biggest change is the fire season lasts so much longer. And the fires are so much bigger. That's it in a nutshell. Senate bill one, you're talking about the yet the road building program and transit investment. Well, there will be more deteriorated roads. There'll be more unsafe bridges. And then people will react and then they'll maybe impose toll roads and they'll do something. There are things will get worse. But then after a certain period of time, then they'll probably have to get better. Well, look, there's no doubt that we didn't repair our roads on a proper schedule. Anybody that could have would have repaired roads on a more regular basis. The work that was needed was well over $50 billion. So that's real. And that has to be done. And if people say, well, we don't need the money that we now have, they'd have to get the money from somewhere else. And the big items are the University of California, the prison system, the health system, and other and including firefighting. So there always be people believe there's plenty of room for cutting out certain activities or doing them differently. But everybody has a different idea of what that might be. And so this, the current funding, the $5 billion investment every year is absolutely vital for road safety, bridge safety, and for having the kind of transit system that relieves even the congestion that we have. So if we go back and reduce local transit, local buses, local trains, and then we make our have our roads deteriorate further. Yeah, life will be more difficult. The quality of life will not improve. And therefore, I think people want to look right through to see the investment that we have also given the fact that a recession is coming. We want to have that investment so we can be providing this work, which we absolutely need at a time when hundreds of 1000 people will be losing losing their job. A quick fire question. Who have you personally spoken to in the Trump administration, cabinet secretaries, White House? Yeah, the the Homeland Security person, Secretary Nielsen. Yeah, she's talked. I've talked with her last week. How do you feel that conversation has been going? It's always very pleasant when I talk with her. She's a very congenial interlocutor. Do you believe the tariff and trade? And seems to me, I think she's very concerned. I mean, they are reaching out. You know, the tariff and trade. Yeah, it's gonna hasten the onset of recession. Well, first, we have the the the borrowing from the children to pay for the corporate tax breaks today. That is a stimulus when you throw a trillion dollars of money into the into people's hands, one way or the other, rich or poor, corporate or non corporate, they're spending money, because it's like everybody was told, go borrow in your credit card for the next couple of months, that would create economic activity. At some point, the tariffs and the natural cycle will kick in. And I know people always think, would we have a recession? I just have to tell you, when I took economics at St. Nations High School, in 1954, the good priest, Father Perkins, or rather his father, Clark, went to the Blackboard, and he drew a line up, and he drew a line down, they drew up and down. He said that zigzag is the business cycle. Now, economists are working very hard to smooth it out. That was 1955. That zigzag up and down is still with us. It's going to happen. And I would say no more than two years, if we're lucky. And then away it goes, the only question is how big, how deep, and with all this uncertainty about trade, and all the other uncertainties that we're getting out of Washington, yeah, there could be, there could be financial consequences and dislocations. So it's a, it's a crapshoot right now, is the way I would say the big economy. Yeah. Should everyone be ready? Everyone should be ready and everybody should have a plan. Well, that I asked Mr. Pimolette just half an hour ago, did anybody anticipate this fire tornado? And his answer was no. So we're still learning. And you just depends on how close you should want to be. I'm personally building a home that's just about complete. Not that far from the fire zone. So I asked myself, is this thing going to burn down? And it's certainly a very high possibility. So yeah, I'm going to be on the alert and everybody else better be on alert. And if you're building in these areas, many will burn down at some point. Well, we have a lot of good firefighters, we have people from adjoining states, we have the National Guard, we have 3,000 inmates doing their best. So, but you have to each one has to be very careful. That mean nature is not just some toy for the capitalist system. It's a real underlying reality that we have to understand and respond to rather than think that because we're a very rich part of the world that we get whatever we want. No, we don't get what we want. And there's a lot of uncertainty. And we have to get used to that. And yeah, I'm not any plans this morning, but we're definitely have considered it. And this is our first step. I don't like to go to places where they're in the middle of firefighting, just to look at people. I find that it's not always the most inspiring way to go.


The Pavement Management System is a tool to assist highway agency managers in decision making. It has three elements, a database, analysis methods, and a feedback process. This program will focus on data collection methods. We'll cover road inventory, pavement condition, traffic data, maintenance, rehabilitation, reconstruction history, and cost data. Road inventory refers to the long-term physical characteristics of each road in a network, not pavement condition. Pavement condition is a separate category for three reasons. First, pavement conditions change frequently as the road ages. Second, road inventory data describes the entire road network. Pavement condition data represents only a sample of each road. Third, train technicians can collect inventory data. But pavement condition data collection often requires special equipment or professional engineering judgment. In order to conduct a road inventory, each road must first have a unique identifier. There are various methods, but most common is a simple numbering scheme. Each road has a unique number. Numbers are easier for computers than names. Most systems use the root number as posted in the field. Some countries and local jurisdictions use a link node approach. Each road intersection is a node. Each road segment between two nodes is a link. Some agencies use the global positioning system, known as GPS, to determine precise locations. GPS equipment uses satellites and triangulation to provide coordinates for latitude, longitude, and elevation. Once a road has a unique identifier, a data collector can precisely locate physical characteristics. They record characteristics such as length, width, thickness, number of lanes, climatic factors, and function. They usually indicate a location using the linear distance along the road's center line from a known reference point to the desired location. Whatever method used, it must be precise, and it must work in conjunction with other systems, like pavement and bridge systems. Road characteristics should be studied in conjunction with other attributes of the road at the same locations. Without this ability, the PMS is useless. The best solution is an agency-wide standard for referencing locations. This allows various data to be related and analyzed for many different purposes. Another category of data is pavement condition. Pavement condition surveys aid in monitoring pavement deterioration. Common indicators are physical distress, ride quality or roughness, and safety. Trained, experienced engineers normally use visual inspection to determine physical distress. They look for three kinds of surface deterioration. Fractures, like cracking or potholes. Distortion, such as swells, depression, corrugation, or rutting. And surface deterioration, like bleeding, oxidation, spalling, polished aggregate, and erosion of the wearing surface. The Strategic Highway Research Program by the United States National Research Council published a distress identification manual for pavements. It has photographs of examples of pavement distress. Evaluation methods vary from windshield surveys to using sophisticated laser equipment. It is unlikely that these devices will ever completely replace visual inspection. Two common physical distress rating methods are a present serviceability index, known as PSI, and a pavement condition rating, known as PCR. The present serviceability index is a mathematical computation based on various field measurements. PSI values range from zero to five. In North America, experts consider values below 2.0 to 2.5 to be the end of the pavement's useful service life. The PCR is similar to the PSI. Its scale goes from zero to 100. Another indicator of pavement condition is ride quality. For many years, engineers have considered ride quality the principal indicator of how well a road is serving the public. Research by the World Bank and other organizations has directly related roughness to increased vehicle operating costs. The closest to a universal standard for measuring roughness is the International Roughness Index, known as IRI. Its units are meters of vertical movement per kilometer. The index is based on a mathematical simulation of a vehicle moving at 80 kilometers per hour. Roughness may indicate serious problems. Spalling, slab failure, depressions, swells and potholes often first cause roughness. Still, these measurements should not be the only pavement evaluation. The early stages of conditions such as alligator cracking may allow smooth, high-speed travel. Engineers measure roughness a number of ways, including roughometers that measure vertical movement between a vehicle's axle and frame, and profilometers that measure the longitudinal profile of the road. Roughometers are very sensitive to operating technique and equipment condition. They are affected by speed of the vehicle, tire pressure, condition of shock absorbers and springs, payload, constant speed and even temperature change. Therefore, operator technique, as well as type and condition of equipment, is very important. At the project level, engineers also measure pavement condition by structural capacity. Structural capacity is the maximum accumulated traffic load pavement can withstand without unacceptable distress. They prefer non-destructive testing to measure structural capacity. Non-destructive testing equipment includes static wheel loading devices, falling weight devices, cyclic dynamic loading devices and newly developed ground penetrating radar that can measure pavement thickness. Some pavement management systems do not require a measurement of structural capacity in the evaluation and prioritization stage of the process. Some systems use ride quality to select deficient pavement. Then, structural capacity analysis is used to determine the appropriate treatment for specific projects. Another condition indicator is safety. Engineers judge safety in two ways, skid resistance and traffic accident data. They define skid resistance as the amount of friction between the road surface and the vehicle tire. In North America, engineers commonly use an ASTM locked wheel trailer or skid trailer to measure friction. It drags a locked wheel across a section of pavement and records friction values. The coefficient of friction or mu value is the towing force divided by wheel load. Values less than 35 are considered hazardous. Another category is traffic data. Engineers use traffic volume and axle load data to evaluate pavement performance, determine priorities and select appropriate treatments. They use mix of traffic as well, including annual average daily traffic and the percentage of cars, trucks of various weight classes and buses. They make traffic counts according to well-established procedures. Axle loading refers to loads on the pavement resulting from traffic volume and a mix of vehicles. It is expressed in terms of equivalent single axle load or ESAL. The net effect of the traffic on the road is expressed as the number of equivalent single axle 80 kN loads. A passenger car represents only a fraction of an ESAL, while a large truck double trailer combination may represent as many as nine ESALs. Road history data is another important category. Most PMS models require information on maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction projects. The database should have the date and type of construction plus thickness and type of material. For pavement maintenance, it is not practical to record the type and location of every routine activity. However, it is useful to know the general level of pavement maintenance on each road, on a section by section basis. Abnormal amounts of pavement maintenance may suggest closer scrutiny of the road section. Historical costs of maintenance are the last data category. Engineers use them in the PMS life cycle cost analysis. These costs are not as predictable as construction costs because of the many factors that affect them, such as age and condition of pavement, traffic loads and environmental and climatic conditions. Several years of costs by road section help the model to find trends and make predictions. The model also needs to see if there are decreases in costs after pavement improvements. To run successfully, a pavement management system needs lots of data. That means an agency should have a computer-based relational database management system known as DBMS. There are many DBMS packages for all types of computers, from microcomputers to mainframes. Some PMS programs include a DBMS. Before purchasing a DBMS, agency management should consider the PMS and acquire it. If it does not already incorporate a DBMS, then the agency should get one compatible with the PMS. If the agency already owns a DBMS or has an established policy on the subject, it should check on compatibility with the PMS. Use existing software whenever possible. That avoids support and data exchange problems within the agency. An agency should not forget other databases within the organization. The PMS database will have to interface with planning, design, traffic engineering and maintenance. Compatibility with these other systems is essential for efficient exchange of information. Additional considerations are data storage capacity. Is there enough storage for all PMS data, past, present and future? Easy access with data integrity. Everyone should be able to look at data but not change it. Are there important restrictions on who can enter and edit PMS data? Proper support. If the agency mainframe will handle the PMS, can the data processing department provide support? If not, get a microcomputer. Flexibility. If the PMS changes, can the DBMS, can it add or delete fields, can it provide space for later use? Convenience. Is it easy to learn and use? Does it have menu choices, interactive data processing, ad hoc reporting capabilities, clear error messages and warnings and context sensitive health? Efficiency. Is it powerful enough to be fast? Hardware and memory prices are dropping. There is no excuse for wasting personnel time while waiting on underpowered computers. Security. Is the database protected from inadvertent or intentional damage? Some users need read-only access while others may need to be able to edit data. And quality assurance. Will the system have periodic checks to be sure data meet predefined standards? Will it check for both data errors and suspect data? In this program we have covered pavement management system data collection methods, road inventory, pavement condition, traffic data, maintenance, rehabilitation and reconstruction history, and cost data. In order to conduct a road inventory, each road must first have a unique identifier. Another category of data is pavement condition. Pavement condition surveys aid in monitoring pavement deterioration. Common indicators are physical distress, ride quality or roughness, and safety. Another category is traffic data. Engineers use traffic volume and axle load data to evaluate pavement performance, determine priorities and select appropriate treatments.

These costs are not as predictable as construction costs because of the many factors that affect them.

Russia could launch huge nuclear explosions at the North Pole. Russian official Konstantin Sivkov suggested during a recent appearance on state-run media that the country greatly expand its military arsenal and deploy a larger number of heavy-duty nuclear weapons according to Newsweek. It is noted that Russian President Vladimir Putin, as well as numerous other Kremlin officials and allies, have frequently hinted at such a possibility since the start of the invasion, typically while attempting to convey strength. In turn, Western leaders have strongly and consistently urged Russia not to deploy nuclear weapons, warning that such actions could bring about unprecedented consequences. On Friday night, Russian media monitor a watchdog group that translates and reports on Russian state-run news programs shared a clip of Sivkov, a retired colonel and now the deputy president of the Russian Academy of Rocket and Artillery Sciences, calling for the country to strengthen its nuclear arsenal significantly. He also went so far as to suggest blowing up the North Pole if that's what it takes to teach the West a lesson. As Julia Davis, creator of the Russian media monitor, noted on Twitter, Personally, I am in favour of a starting and extensive massive development of strategic nuclear weapons. Sivkov said, These weapons will provide an all-around protection from practically any attacks against our country. Also, we should move on to non-traditional ways of using nuclear weapons, including heavy-duty nuclear warheads capable of causing serious geophysical repercussions. Sivkov was cagey when pressed about whether or not he was suggesting that Russia use these nuclear weapons, saying rather that Russia should somehow deploy them in such a manner that makes their existence known. There can be different ways, he continued. If things reach a particular acute state, we could demonstrate it at the North Pole. Blow it up. Like we did with our 58 megaton one on Novaya-Zemlaya. Everything was normal. It went well. It had a good educational impact.

SCP-525 consists of multiple disjoint arthropod legs. When eight components of SCP-525 are brought within range of each other, approximately 0.6 meters, the legs will immediately crawl into a group and attach themselves into a single entity, referred to as 5251. At this stage, the speed of its locomotion greatly increases, and it will attempt to make contact with the closest human, or similar. When a suitable animal is found, 5251 will climb directly towards the animal's eye. Having centered itself over a socket, four legs will secure the eyelid, while the others extract the eye.
