Ναι, σέντε το πριστορικό. Είναι η θέα.  The pioneering work of Tsundas and Wesson Thompson during the early 20th century has made Thessaly the focal point of Neolithic research in Greece. Long before any systematic framework was established for other parts of Greece, research in Thessaly possessed an elaborate chronological system suitable for describing the cultural history of the area. To some extent Thessaly still holds this privileged position today and some of the central issues of Greek prehistory revolve around research in this region. Lately research in Thessaly has moved into a phase of synthesis with less emphasis on excavation and more on the analysis of excavated data. At the same time new issues have been put forward and new methods and approaches adopted. The most intensively excavated area of Thessaly is its coastal region. Research which started here at the turn of the century and continues to date has produced a fairly complete excavation record covering extensive parts of settlements from the early Neolithic to the late Bronze Age. No major excavation has been contacted in the eastern Larissa Plains in its intensive activity of the mid-1960s. During the last 30 years however there is also this early excavation has gradually appeared in an impressive number of volumes presenting in detail the evidence on which the preliminary synthesis by Milotius had been based. The western Plains of Thessaly displays a lower concentration of settlement in the prehistoric period with the exception of the hilly area near Farsala. This spareness of habitation is usually attributed to unwelcoming photographical characteristics and also to the low intensity of archaeological work. Walk at Ahelion and Platiama Goulazaku are the major prehistoric projects that have taken place during the last 30 years. Last scale public works in Thessaly during the last years have prompted a campaign of extensive rescue excavations, fast surfacing in size and intensity any earlier archaeological project carried out in Thessaly. The Larissa area is specially benefited from this opportunity and archaeological work in that region is in progress. The immense quantity of material produced is only slowly entering the study phase and there are few concrete results to report as yet, although one can venture the prediction that the picture of New League and Bronze Age Thessaly will change substantially when the new evidence becomes available in its totality. At present, preliminary reports permit a quick launch at this emerging picture. Main excavations, Gulf of Olos, Sesclo, Pyrgos, Dimini, Pefkakia, Petromagoula, Mandra. Eastern Plains, Otsiaki, Agia Sophia, Galini, Σουφλή, Μαγούλα, Βελεστίνο and finally Western Plains, Achilles, Πλατιά Μαγούλα, Ζάρκου, Ραχμάνι and theopatra cave. Already in the early 20th century, Macedonia came to occupy a peculiar place in the consciousness of pre-Historians. It was considered the keep province for the study of European prehistory but also a backward area in itself with a native tendency to isolation. Macedonia was construed as a passage or a highway between lands of obvious importance. Europe and all Greece, or Anatolia, and archaeologists from the way to Rodin would invoke that condition as its justification for excavating there. Fairly argued that the land west of the stream on belongs primarily to the Aegean at a time when few could pay attention. Other researchers, including Carson, would make it clear that Macedonians were European, not Mediterranean by nature. They suddenly found the province's northern character, not in its latitude, but in its very environment and climate, example given in the discharge pattern of its rivers. Thus Macedonia proved to be different from the Aegean in general both with regard to its natural environment and the character of its prehistoric culture. It was considered the other of the Aegean. Questions of cultural origins had been prevalent in Hadley's book for Historic Macedonia and archaeological reconnaissance of Greek Macedonia in the Neolithic bronze and early Iron Ages. Innovations as well as local developments were invoked as explanations of change in wares and figuring types. But the work offered much more than this and it was justifiably called a scientific record of elastic value. A ceramic cultural sequence was established even in absolute chronology. Time was measured in thickness of deposits. Moreover, as the excavations were dispersed over a very wide area, regional differences were emerging. The departure of Hadley's team from Macedonia in 1931 was followed by a 30-year period during which a minimum of field work was carried out at the historic sites. When the joint Cambridge Harbour, Cambridge Harbour excavations at Nenny Comedia began in 1961, much field work had in the meantime been conducted from Anatolia to Hungary and Thessaly. Diffusion and ethnogenesis were no longer the leading concerns of mainstream European prehistory. Nenny Comedia yielded an early reactor ideal carbon date 6,220 plus minus 150 BC associated with domesticates and shine. It was then the site of the oldest dated Neolithic community yet found in Europe, making Macedonian an important link in the long chain of evolution of a European society. Although the excitement was short-lived for many reasons, still the project at Nenny Comedia marked the beginning of the modern phase of prehistoric research in Macedonian beyond. It was followed by excavations at several sites, including the important one at Citari and other projects. Main projects Western Macedonia, Middle Aliacmon Valley, River in Zone Terces and Ani, Ravenna and the Upper Aliacmon catchment, Kytrin-Lymi area, Droschiaa, Genicaa area, Mándalo, Arhontiko, Nenny Comedia, Makrygenos. Central Macedonia, Langadas Basin, Two Late Neolithic sites, Area of Thessaloniki, Stavroukoli Με συμμεριανή Τουμπα, Τωρονι. Ιστανα-Σαντώνια, Decilitas, Citagri, Προμαχώνα στο κόλλιντσα, Τουμπα, δρά μας, Αρκαδικός, Δήμητα και Παράτιστος. Greek Thase is generally absent from reviews of ancient prehistory. It is surprising, since one would think that both Roudofi plain to the south as well as the ever valley to this would attract researchers interested in prehistoric interaction among Anatolia, the Aegean and the Balkans. Nevertheless, it was only a few decades ago that the prehistoric excavation of some scale was undertaken by the archaeological service which has also conducted smaller scale excavations of early sites in the area. No secure stratified sequence has been sufficiently published for any period of Western Thase. Recent excavations at the site of Makri promised to rectify the situation for the Neolithic period by providing a more secure stratigraphy for the 5th and 4th millennium BC, quantities provided by Paradimi and may offer evidence for even earlier Neolithic occupation. Previously known sites with Neolithic and occasional early Bronze Age occupation are primarily mounts along the edges of the plain and near the coast and caves with sparse traces of intermittent occupation from late Neolithic to historical times. Only recently have less conspicuous sites some in elevated areas been discovered indicating at least for some periods more varied patterns of habitation than were suspected in the past. Main projects Paradimi, Roskinites, Makri. Itherus is mountainous, difficult to explore and because of ubiquitous deep graves its landscape is subject to intense erosion deposition. The rock has been erratic. In view of these conditions it is not surprising that few Neolithic sites are known in the province. It may in fact be more surprising that as many as 10 to 15 Neolithic sites are known. A few are caves that is relatively stable protected micro-environments. Others must by recently deposited sediments were discovered by chance during construction of rocky fields or dangerous ditches. They would have been undetectable such facts underline the rarity of stable areas in the Ipirotic landscape where Neolithic settlements might be easy to come upon. Noteworthy however is the absence of Neolithic mount sites. That may suggest that settlements were relatively ephemeral, buildings were dispersed limited use was made of earthen materials for construction and total population density was never very high. For Ipirus the problem seems to be far more basic and disconforting. A scarcity of field data. The underdevelopment of prehistoric research a chronic condition has stunted progress. The archaeological imagination has always been resourceful in Ipirus it is time however for intensive field book. Taking for instance the prehistoric settlement of Makri on the coast of Aegean thrace. All the provisional evidence indicate that the prehistoric settlement of Makri belongs mainly to the late Neolithic Balkans archaeology of the 5th millennium BC. The excavation of the prehistoric mount of Makri 10 km west of the town of Aleksandropoli has produced an excellent record of Neolithic occupation and revealed prehistoric deposits that were very recent architectural remains and portable finds. Excavation there began in 1980s and has continued almost every year since then. The dig covered the top of the mount which seems to be the center of the settlement and is represented by the excavation section B. The section which is located largely on the summit of the mount extends a short way down the sides. A central area whose architectural forms are indicative of intense floating activities has come to light together with a living area with traces of residence and food production such as houses on piles with file places and successive floors on which there were pots, milk stones, stone and bone tools and loom weights. It seems likely that at some time the settlement had a stone wall around it. No properly organized graveyard has been found though beneath the floors of the houses were occasional barriers in simple pits. The settlement yielded a rich collection of various items made in range of materials. On the basis of the typology of these items the Makri settlement forms part of the cultural space of the southeast Balkans and belongs chronologically as mentioned above to the 5th millennium BC. In order to negotiate in an attempt to incorporate all this mixed data we have to deconstruct the available archaeological material through a procedure of intense critique and recompose it on the basis of meaningful units of the social activities taking place in the landscape so that we finally derive the meaning from its elements separately appreciate the archaeological information in reference with what it actually represented and classify the sites according to human activities. Our contemporary knowledge of space that includes not only maps but also our ability to exactly locate any site inferred by the archaeological record has led to tentative reconstructions combining information from maps and the material record of the same period and context. The shape and form of space announces a whole cultural territory meaning a cultural landscape as well as a corresponding perception and interpretation of the environment that hosted human action. Regarding Neolithic North and Greece both tales and flat extended sites central as well as peripheral estimated in the natural and human main landscape context offer us a vital research perspective in what concerns the perception of free historic space in its entirety. Thank you.


After this unification of all the things, we'll have a nationwide campaign to go to the districts, to the villages, and call to the people that this is the party whom you can trust. This is the party of the poor, the party of the nationalist forces, the party of change. Welcome to People's Dispatch. We're here with Madhav Kumar Nepal, the former Prime Minister of Nepal, and a senior leader of the Communist Party of Nepal. How are you doing? Yes, very good. So it's been one year since the unification process started between the two Communist parties. We were wondering if you could tell us a little bit about this process, an evaluation of how it's been, the challenges? Yes, you know that the Communist movement in Nepal is very popular. It has strong ties with the people. Even though there may be many parties here, several different parties may exist here. But they all are propagating Marxism and nationalism. And among all these parties, two parties emerged as the strongest one. One has been the Communist Party of Nepal, Unified, Marxist, and another is Communist Party of Nepal, Maoist center. And this party, the UML, has its own long political background. At the same time, this Maoist center has their own historical background. We realized in 1990s that there is a need to move to the peaceful path of revolution, depending on the people's awareness, unity, and mobilization. And Maoist Party had to go through one decade of armed revolution since 1996-2006. But in the process, we both come together during the struggle against autocratic monarchy. We both realized that without the unity among the left and democratic forces, we cannot win. That's why there was a need to bring the Maoist Party who were in the far from the cities. It means mountains, jungles, remote areas, and they were launching armed revolution. So what we have done is to persuade them or make them realize that with the joint efforts of the parties and the people, the unity of the people and the Maoist people will be stronger. It can challenge the monarchial forces and throw away. And for this, there was a need to bring them into the peace process, to the mainstream of politics, and we took the initiative. I myself, from the Communist Party of Nepal, Unified Marxist, took the initiative to bring them into the peace process and persuaded other democratic forces as liberal, bourgeoisie forces to work with us and together with the Maoists fight against the monarchial forces. Because the autocratic monarchy has served power into its own hand and arrested us, and the activities the parties will control. That's why there was a need to overthrow the monarchy. And for that, we thought that a new constitution has to be dropped. And for the constitution, there was a need to have a constituent assembly. So the election for the assembly was the demand of the Maoist Party and people's democracy was also the demand of the left parties. Whereas democratic right was the demand of the bourgeoisie parties. We combined all together for the right of the people for bringing back the sovereignty into the hand of the people. So we united, we fought together, later on, both of us realized, during the election period, after the promulgation of the constitution, during all these periods we worked together in the government, in the assembly, in the framing of the constitution, in the parliamentary committees or constituent committees, and then both of us realized that these two parties must have to come together, get united and fight the election, the parliamentary election together. So during the election to the local bodies, we were separate, fought against each other. Despite that we got together almost 55% of the total local seat in the municipalities and the village councils. Whereas during the central and provincial elections, central and provincial elections, we come together, we thought that we need to be together. So fought the election together, not bringing the party into one single entity. But our electoral candidate were selected by both of us and we got almost two-third of the majority in the central election, in the federal unit, parliament. And in the provincial level, out of the seven provinces here in Nepal, we have comfortable almost two-third majority in the six provinces. Even in the seventh, means province number two, we are the largest party in the provincial assembly. So all this has inspired us to be together. So we discussed about our political line, ideological political line, and then we come to a conclusion that there is need to go towards socialism of Nepalese characteristics. So socialism orientation is our orientation. And then the Badan Bhandari, who was the ideal look of the Communist movement of the UEML, his people's democracy, his multi-party people's democracy, his new idea was actually taken positively. Whereas the new democracy of the 21st century, that was the idea of the Maoist party. So both has to be combined together and we have to create a new democracy thinking in mind to move towards socialism. So now in last year, today, the same day, 1 May 4, it was declared that both these two basic parties will be united. And we united and make the party, the name, the Nepal Communist Party, NCP. And we united the central committee, composed of both parties, central leaders, 241 and 200. At the same time the standing committee, 45, number 45, 26 plus 19. And then the central secretariat, 9, where the number is 6 and 3. Because the UEML has been the biggest one and the Maoist has been the second one. That sort of equation has been set. And then in the process of unifying the party, we have to unify all the central units, mass organizations. Because just unity among the central committee of the party is not enough. You have to think about other units, as for example, Politburo. Then the central departments, then the central disciplinary commission, central electoral commission of the party, central editing commission of the party, central advisory councils and senior citizens council. So these are the central units of the party. So we are gradually uniting all these units and a few days before, few weeks before, we declared that all the district level bodies will be united. So we decided about who will be the chairman, who will be the secretary. And that was been done. What will the number of the district committee, that was also been set. And today, all the mass organizations, almost all have been united today. And then gradually we will do all these things within few weeks of time. So the unity process is going on. We have been working together. The only thing is that it took long time. It was a, it has not done good. Actually, we should have done the things very fastly. But because of, you know, a busy schedule of the leaders in the government and outside, it was delayed. And to finding the formalize is not so easy. Talking about unity may be very easy thing. But while doing the job, it has to counter many complications and the problems. So you have to keep in mind the psychology of the other side as well. And both of them must respect each other and know each other well. Have the evaluation, proper evaluation of each of the candidates. So what we are insisting on is that proper organizational procedure must be followed. Organization norms must be followed. Criteria must be shared. Evaluation process should be very clear. And all of the candidates has to go through the screening process. So what we have been doing is that after this unification of all the things, we will have a nationwide campaign to go to the districts, to the villages and call to the people that this is the party whom you can trust. This is the party of the poor, the party of the nationalist forces, the party of change, the party who needs, gives attention to the problems of the people. And we have to be close to the people, integrate with the people and win the trust and confidence of the people. So that we are in the process and we hope that in the coming few weeks the other remaining talks of the irrigation will be completed. Well, thank you so much for sharing with us. That's all we have time for and keep watching People's Dispatch. Thank you.


Aloha. Welcome to American Issues Take One. I'm Tim Apichell, your host. And today's show is titled, Trump's ongoing war against law enforcement. And before I get to my guests, as I was thinking about this title, you know, it's a long, long trail of lawsuits and legal actions against the former president of the United States, Donald Trump. And I thought, well, before we can discuss it, we'll have to kind of refresh our memories. What is it that the many engagements he is with law enforcement agencies and our private parties as well? So bear with me here. I'll have to go down the list and it's an extensive list. Number one, investigation of violations of the President's Record Act. Well, that's the most recent one. We know what that's all about. And the conversations about top secret or confidential records at Mar-a-Largo. So we'll see how that all shakes out. Number two, January 6th election interference, the blocking of the business of the United States Congress. Part of that investigation is possible incitement to attack the Capitol. What role was Donald Trump in the incitement of that attack? To defraud the U.S. through overturning election results. That's part of the whole mix. Number three, you may not remember this, but the Georgia criminal investigation of election crimes. Reminded of the old country Western song by Johnny Lee, looking for 11,780 votes and they're on the wrong places. Number four, financial issues, tax and bank fraud investigations. That's from the AG of New York, Letta James, and not to be outdone by that is, although it's quiet, is the Southern District of Manhattan's investigation of tax fraud by Donald Trump. You have to remember that was Alvin Bragg, formerly Cyrus Vance that was in charge of that. Sexual misconduct allegations brought on by Gene Carroll. That's an old one sitting out there, but it hasn't gone away. The lawsuits of police officers that were injured during the January 6th insurrection accusing Trump of inciting a riot that caused these injuries. A lawsuit from Trump's niece, remember, Mary Trump, she fraudulently said Donald Trump or she has stated that fraudulently Donald Trump cut her out of her inheritance and there's a lawsuit out there waiting for him. And last but not least, Trump's former attorney Michael Cohen, said that he was retaliated against Donald Trump and thrown back in jail as a result of his self, his published memoir, throwing Trump under the bus. So there was about nine or 10, just sitting out there. And if you're Donald Trump, he doesn't have any problem going to sleep, but they're out there waiting for him. So without further ado, I would like to introduce my guest. Our special guest today is Chuck Crumpton. We have Jay Fidel, my co-host, and Cynthia Lee Sinclair. Good morning to one and all. Good morning, Tim. Welcome back. Thank you.  We said he was waiting for Godot. We must have said it 10 or 15 times. Well, as of this week, David, the Department of Justice has issued 40 new subpoenas to a variety of individuals, most of them Trump aides and top aides. Has your opinion changed about the course of direction of the DOJ, and specifically, have you changed your mind about Merrick Garland? Yes, but I'm not totally convinced. I think, you know, that there are things that he's done that we would have wished that he had done before, but we're happy that he did those things, including the subpoenas, and apparently the DOJ investigation. I think probably unbalanced the way I feel about it is that he must have been listening to Think Tech Hawaii, and he ultimately got the right idea. Of course he was. Okay, so now, you know, you got talking heads saying that this rash of subpoenas and requests for subpoenas for documents is basically going to set up the quiet period between right now and the midterm elections. And they'll basically be waiting through all these subpoenas and testimonies and documents during that quiet period. Do you agree with that? And to your opinion, Jay, how significant is this DOJ move? What, with the subpoenas and more active investigation? Is this just checking the boxes, or is this a significant move by DOJ? I think this reveals that they are in fact investigating Trump. Yes, and it encourages me. On the other hand, the 60 day rule does not encourage me. I wish it didn't exist. It's not statute, you know, it's one of those DOJ memoranda, which sometimes is wrong. And it was in play, if you recall, when James Comey, who is really a centerpiece of, in my view, this conversation. So, you know, it's too bad because, you know, if Merrick Garland had started going public earlier, if Joe Biden had been talking about it earlier, we wouldn't be faced with the 60 day rule. And, you know, there are things that will happen in the 60 days that the public should know about. The public should know that their former president is a felon and has violated the law in so many ways. It could be that he gets indicted in the 60 day period. I think the public should know about that. But regrettably, I'm not sure the public will know about that. Alrighty, thanks, Jay. To our special guest, Chuck Crumpton. Chuck, tell me something. You know, it looks like, you know, these subpoenas were very broad based in general in nature. Yet, it seems to be a kind of a focus on Trump's fundraising events that he tried to pull off, not too dissimilar from Bannon's, you know, Bill the Wall charity and PAC. Also, they seem to be targeting the false electors that were assigned to certain states. And last but not least, these subpoenas seem to be going after those who are in charge of the social media accounts for Donald Trump. What's your sense of these subpoenas and whether or not you detect any certain pattern to them, or do you just think they're general broad based in nature? It's a great question, Tim. I think one of the things, if I've learned anything from over 35 years of mediating other people's conflicts is look for what's missing, look for what's not there. This set of subpoenas does not focus in on core central elements for criminal intent and conduct on either the January 6th or my olago documents, but rather the secondary, the more peripheral issues. One of the things that may be is a sign that they've got enough of what they want on that first set of really core issues that they can now start to build up the penumbra and see whether there's enough there to include it or not. So it may indicate that they're farther along than other people think. Second thing to pay attention to, I think Merrick Garland gets the attention because he's the AG, but the people who are really doing the work and maybe influencing his decision making are a set of very highly experienced, qualified, relatively young prosecutors in the AG's department who are putting these things together and clearly incentivizing the movement in their direction toward actual prosecutions. So they haven't slowed, in fact, they've broadened and if anything, they've deepened their efforts. Well, because they're broadened. Tim, can I jump in on that?  I'm not a prosecutor. I was a military prosecutor a long time ago, but this kind of prosecution strategy, it seems we have learned over the past few years that you look for the little guys first and then you flip them and you get them to testify against the bigger guys. So this could all be that.  So I suspect that's the strategy going on now. Let me ask you, all of you, does this broad-based general subpoenas that have been issued, does that play into the GOP narrative that this is yet again the government's effort for a witch hunt? Chuck? I think just the opposite. Everybody knows that Trump moved those documents out. It's got his sharpie markings on him. Everybody knows that there are at least 150 very, very highly sensitive classified high-security documents in there and that there's no reason to have removed Tumar Halaga. Everybody knows that those were found through a deliberative process with judicial review, with support for it that's now been made relatively public. So claiming it's a witch hunt, you're not hearing that much. Well, you say everybody, you say everybody, I'm sure you could find virtually millions of people in this country who still think it's a witch hunt, who are not being informed and who believe that the Trump's criticism of the FBI and law enforcement in general is correct and that poor bugger is the victim. And they will not be swayed. So yes, those who read the newspapers are better informed, but that doesn't include everybody. Clearly right. Thanks for the correction, Jake. Hey, Cynthia, what do you think Donald Trump's motivation was to bring in these confidential top-seek documents? Was it a matter of them just throwing things in a box? Or what's your opinion? And I'll say opinion because we don't have the facts yet and we can't get inside the mind of Donald Trump. Thank God. But what's your opinion of why these highly sensitive top-secret documents were scurred away at Mar-a-Lago? What was the motivation? What was the ultimate purpose of that? Well, in my opinion, he lives in his wallet. We pretty much know he's all about money, right? So I guess as he wants to sell them or use them as a way to blackmail somebody down the road. That's what narcissists do. I mean, it's kind of textbook even, right? But don't you think he knows the definition of treason? Sorry. So let me just kind of get an informal survey here. How many of you believe that Donald Trump had an alternative motive for those documents, either to sell them, share them, use them as blackmail in the future, or some other nefarious motivation? Well, the other nefarious possibility on your little list is to somehow scuttle the Biden administration, disable them, what he did in the transition, make it impossible for them to know what's going on in the world, no critical sequence they need for making nuclear policy. That should be on your list also. Well, that's kind of what I meant by blackmail, to use it against other people. I guess I should have been a little more specific about blackmail. But to use it against other people, absolutely to use it against the Biden administration. And remember, he's always shooting for that long con, that 2024 run, right? So these documents he could have been thinking could maybe help him move forward in his bid for the presidency again. And if I could just address one other thing that you had brought up that the investigation in New York, the criminal investigation that Vance used to be running, and now that Boggs guy does. When it got to the point where Vance was going to retire, he had brought in, just beforehand, he had brought in two high powered criminal prosecutors that that's their specialty is dealing with this white collar crime stuff. These guys, when Vance left and Boggs came in and said, well, I don't think we really have anything. We're not really going to go forward with this and started trying to shove it under the rug. Those two prosecutors, they absolutely resigned in protest and came out publicly and said there was enough evidence to indict and this Boggs guy is the guy who kiboshed the whole thing. So we got to remember that even though we don't think about that investigation much anymore, because Boggs has put it under the carpet, right? You mean Bragg, for that, huh? Bragg. Bragg, not Boggs, sorry, Bragg, excuse me, thanks for the direction. Yeah, I was close. At any rate, so we got to remember that that's an important factor. That investigation has been deliberately taken out of the news. And then there's one more thing that's important that just came out recently. And that is the whole, the investigation, there's new news that just, I just started hearing about yesterday. And that is the whole Michael Cohen person one and our individual one and, you know, all that stuff. Afterwards, Bill Barr made, went in and scrubbed all the paperwork and took out any reference of individual one. That is a very important factor that we need a little more information on. But I want to bring it up. Okay, everybody, keep that in your back of your mind to, you know, watch that space because I think we're going to be finding out some really important stuff. So now we see Barr. Well, that may come up with the January 6th House hearing committee meetings that are going to take place here, start up again shortly. So who knows if Bill Barr comes up as a subject matter or not? No, the point is that Trump could have been and was in fact identified by Michael Cohen. It could have been prosecuted or at least investigated. And under Bill Barr, he wasn't. And, you know, the whole reference to individual one went out the window. Another example of Bill Barr's partisanship. Well, Jay, to you on Bill Barr, I don't want to get too far off the track here with Bill Barr, but he's been pretty critical and pretty informative of the Mar-a-Lago document case. He's come out extremely pretty tough on it. What's going on with that? I don't think he's found religion. I don't think he's, you know, it had discovered a new morality for himself. I think it has something to do with his okole. Okay. Well, you know what? I agree. Okay. Thank you, Cynthia. Hey, Jay, let's talk about the special master. Do you think that the DOJ played Trump's team, played Trump and Trump's team quite well by surprisingly agreeing on a judge that they could agree on to be a special master? Yeah. You know, Chuck, it's just like per-emptory challenges in selecting a jury. Sometimes you leave somebody on who may not be obviously on your team, but you do it for a tactical reason because you only have so many per-emptory challenges. And I think the part of the strategy of the DOJ on this judge's theory was that if they fought with everything that the Trump lawyers were suggesting with every nominee the Trump lawyers were suggesting, they'd be fighting and fighting and fighting. And there would be no agreement on anything. And the judge who we have zero confidence in, Aileen Cannon, would just pick a Trump suggestion. In this case, I think they did the right thing. They picked somebody who is likely to work in their favor somehow. And it was like Judo. They let the Trump team fall on its own pattern here. So I think it was good strategy. We'll see how it works out though. The jury's still out on exactly what kind of a job he'll do and how partisan he might be and whether the recommendations that he makes will be accepted by Aileen Cannon. He probably knows a lot more law and a lot more about how a special master might function and how a district judge might function. So she should be listening to him, but that's not clear. Another thing to remember, Tim, that you emphasized in an earlier episode, is a primary component of the Trump team's strategy. And it's not a very good legal thing, actually, is to stall, delay it. Well, that was my next question, yes. As close to 2024 as possible. This completely guts that. It gets it into the hands of a special master, a special master who's probably likely to move fairly quickly on this stuff. Second thing to remember, DOJ and the FBI know exactly what's in there. They know what's on every page on every one of those documents. They know what's going to be found. So they've got a, they're manifesting a high confidence level that this process is going to move effectively and relatively quickly compared to what Trump wanted to prevent. Because of despite the deniers who are delusional, despite the fact that those of us who are paying any attention to the facts know what was in those documents, know where they were, and know how close to criminal conduct that is. One other very interesting point is this. This is all riddled with the problem of classified information, of the highest possible classified information. And people have questioned whether a special master who didn't have a security clearance should be looking. For that matter, a district judge who didn't have a security clearance should be looking. Luckily, and this may have been part of the strategy of the DOJ, Deerey was on the FISA court. And the FISA court all have security clearances at the highest level. They have to.  Right. Good point. Excellent point. What we want to know is, hey, did Trump's lawyers forget to consult the Federalist Society on this one? Good point, Chuck. Cynthia, you wanted to get a word in. Go ahead. Just wanted to ask a question. It's sort of a legal question that I've had a lot of people ask me and I can't find the answer for. And that is, why does this judge can and have any standing when it was already, there was already a judge that was sitting on this case, that the one who authorized the search warrant. So, why was Trump allowed to go there? Why did that judge have any kind of a standing to even do anything with it? Why hasn't the DOJ just filed to get it out of her back to the original judge? Why couldn't that happen? Do you?  And it's very interesting that in the federal system, when a case is filed, a judge is assigned. Right, Chuck? The judge is assigned and the judge, district judge takes that case right on through, including trial. And you always know that the judge who was assigned is the judge who will handle everything. In this case, the Trump team went shopping and they went to another judge. By the way, Reinhardt is a magistrate, right? Not a district judge. Okay? Keep that in your mind. They went shopping. They went 80 miles away to another courthouse, another district judge, another district, I think, in Florida. And they found this woman who Trump had appointed who had no experience and who was gullible. And they went to her because they were judge shopping. Now, what's interesting about this is that the rule of assigning a judge, it didn't get enforced. It was ignored. And this raises the whole question about the protocols in the district courts. They violated the protocols. But the protocols aren't law. And they found a weakness in the protocols that nobody would actually stand up and say, wait, Eileen, you can't do this. This is sitting in another district, another judge. But since there's no mechanism to enforce that protocol, she did it. And there's nothing that DOJ could have done. And it's really sad because it's such an obvious case of improper judge shopping. Is that something to be appealed on that basis, Jay? I'll leave that to Chuck. The DOJ has so many better things to go after. Yeah. Deficiencies in her opinion. She lacked a jurisdiction of Cynthia indicated. She elevated unfounded claims of political bias over national security. She chose to interfere in a civil case in a criminal investigation. There's a whole laundry list. We all did a great job of. Chuck, is it worth the DOJ's time to actually appeal in the 11th district court? It will be. But they want to posture it as well with this particular case with this judge as they can before that time to appeal comes up and they've got to file it. Remember that they did move for reconsideration of her order on one point, namely her order that the DOJ investigation should stop. And that's a reasonable thing to do. And a reasonable judge would say, OK, OK, yeah, that's overreaching. I'm not going to stop the DOJ from doing its investigation. There's no good reason at all. And that's pending with Eileen Cannon now. Or is it Reinhardt? It might be Reinhardt, I'm not sure. No, it had to be Eileen Cannon. She's the one who issued the order in the first place. So that's a real problem because she could take her sweet time on the motion for reconsideration. Thus, as we discussed, delaying all this. And then it seems to me to answer your question, Tim, the DOJ should must appeal, even with a kind of mandamus appeal, asking for immediate relief from the 11th circuit. But we know that Trump loaded the 11th circuit with Trumpers. Chances of winning on that point or any point at the 11th and the 11th circuit is really remote, actually. Right. Well, my question is, is it too late to take it back now? Is it too late to go after that? You don't have jurisdiction. Your order was bad. We're taking it back. Is it too late for that? Or can they still do that? That'd be part of the appeal process, would it not? It would. But it's not their strongest grounds. Her decision is so flawed legally and factually. Even with 6 out of 11 of the 11th circuit judges having been appointed by Trump and they don't get it as a whole in bank first anyway, they get it in a trio usually of three. So what they would do is depends on who gets selected and how they want to go. Okay. Cynthia, we're almost out of time and I want to run something past you. And that is, to what degree has the GOP narrative been effective at this document search at Mar-a-Lago? If you remember, their first initial claim was that the FBI were putting documents in the boxes. They're planting evidence. Then they said, okay, well, Donald Trump gave a blanket declassification for all documents. And now they're saying it's like not returning a library book. How effective is the GOP response to all this? They do. And now it's all bleeding into some of the other mainstream news outlets. It's not just on Fox that you hear this crazy stuff. Or just on OAN or Newsmax is bleeding. Now we hear it on CNN now. Shoot just the other day, Erin Burnett, who has her own show now during the week on CNN, spent her whole show talking about Hunter's Laptop. It's just that's this kind of stuff that they're putting out there. Anything to deflect and disinformed, misinformed people, to lead them to undermine the truth and the reality of what's going on. And it's not just the GOP that's getting points by saying all this stuff. We don't hear it from the other side giving us the opposite truth. We don't hear the truth coming out of the other side. Like the fact that every time we hear, well, he declassified everything. We should be hearing it doesn't matter whether they were classified or not. The charges and that specific search had nothing to do with classified. Well, didn't we hear somewhat that saying Donald Trump didn't have the authority on his own presidential wave of his hand to declassify top secret documents? Didn't we hear that from the Democrats and from legal minds? At first, but we are not really hearing it now. And that's what I meant by every time they say it. And these guys say it 24 seven. So if we only say it one, it's not good enough. Exactly. They need to start talking about it every day. And this is the other thing they need to say that counters that. And that is this that even if he declassified them, they are not allowed to leave the White House or a certain locked skip that has that is guarded a guarded skip. So it doesn't matter classified or not classified does not matter. Well, that'll play that'll play to the Presidential Records Act allegations and those potential charges that the DOJ will or will not come up with.  So I want to go around the table very quickly and ask for last thoughts. Jay Fidel. We're heading toward the election. There's so much confusion out there. Although The New York Times had a story yesterday to the effect that Trump's excuses have run out of gas. Not everybody reads The New York Times. The New York Times has convinced me that's easy, but a lot of people don't read it, don't want to read it, don't believe it. But in fact, logically, his excuses have run out of gas. He doesn't have any excuses. And he has never said why he took them out of the White House anyway, you know, that problem. That's one thing. The other thing is that 60-day rule really troubles me. There's going to be all kinds of confusion. The next thing is that if you saw, there's a move by the GOP to do document requests of election officials all around the country.  Very troubling, you know, very, very bad, very malign is what it is. And the third thing that came out yesterday, day before, is that Mr. Putin was found to have given $300 million to autocrat and candidates and officials in 2016, including Trump, and in 2020, and is probably still doing it today. Wait a minute. Isn't that illegal for foreign entities to give to national elections? Of course it is. And they do it in strange ways, but they do it. And that was the times revelation that came from the intelligence community. So we have that process continuing right now. My point is that Trump is leading, orchestrating nationwide attempt to confuse people and to confuse and undermine the election coming in November. And what we have been talking about is part of it. There are lots of other parts, and they are all emerging now with the likely prospect that the public will be confused. The election will be undermined. I'm sorry to tell you. Okay, Jay, thanks for your thoughts.  Okay, three things that your great guidance has helped us cover today that we know about. Nurses, one, everything is leverage. It doesn't matter what it is, where it comes from, it's all leverage. Second, because they're above the law, they're untouchable, they're unaccountable, it doesn't matter how they get it, it doesn't matter what they do with it, it's leverage. But number three is they will turn on, they will undercut, they will betray and hang out to dry anyone. That's the Bill Barr story. He has now figured that out.  You got to be careful who you do that with, because Cohen, Barr, and a few others, Mathis, some of the generals, are people who are respected and articulate in some areas. So look out for that area number three, and it's why he's having trouble getting leadership. Not only does he stiffen like Giuliani, but he screws them like Barr. I'm reminded of that book that came out years ago, everything Donald Trump touches dies. I forget who wrote it, but what a title. Okay, Chuck, thank you for your last thoughts. Cynthia, you get the last word for today. Okay, gosh, we talked about so many important things that we have. It's hard to know where to go with that, because obviously, there's, you know, American issues part two tomorrow. And I'm sure there's more for that day and all in the weeks to come. And it is my honor. It really is an honor to be able to keep this stuff, at least out there on the airwaves, you know, whoever hears it, we will not stop, whether everybody else does or not. I know we won't. And I'm glad to be part of that. I'm glad to be part of this team. So have a quote. What else is new? I have a quote to Ann Wryth and it's from Liz Cheney. And it is this, every American must consider this, Ms. Cheney said, can a president who was willing to make the choices Donald Trump made during the violence of January 6th ever be trusted with any position of authority in our great nation again? And that was just referring to the behavior on that day. That doesn't even include any of the rest of the stuff we've talked about. Glad you brought that quote to our attention, Cynthia. Thank you so much. A great quote by Liz Cheney. We've run out of time. So I'd like to say thank you to our special guest, Chuck Crumpton. Thank you to our, my co-host, Jay Fidel, and Cynthia as always, my gratitude and thanks to you. Until then, join us next week for American Take One. I'm Tim Appichelle, your host, and we hope to see you then. Much aloha. Please like us and click the subscribe button on YouTube and the follow button on Vimeo.

So how do we create molecules that fulfill all the admin talks properties in general? It's hard, but there are a couple of rules of thumbs in particular one called Leipensky's Rule of five So the four rules in Leipensky's rule of five is not an oxymoron But this is not because there are five rules, but all these rules are multiples of five so the first thing Leipensky said these are merely observations of typical drugs that up until the 1990s or so had been successful It should the weight Should be below 500 Doltons So that's another way of saying that the molecular the weight of one molecule should be less than 500 grams per mole a 500 units Atomic units and that means because things that are too large will likely not be able to go through the blood brain barrier They might not go through membranes. The solubility might be bad, etc. It's just this is just a rule of thumb It's an order of magnitude in practice things that are too large just won't work to log P Should be less than five Yeah, that sounds completely Taken out of the blue it is taken out the blue So log P P is really the octanol to water partitioning Octanol to water and this means that it can't be too hydrophobic So if it's very very low that would mean that the quotient between octanol and water would be very low And that would mean that all the drug would like sorry it can't be too high If all the drug would like to go in the octanol Then that would be great It would be instantly be soluble in fat and everything But it would not be able to be taken up in the bloodstream, right? And if it's not going to be taken up in the bloodstream, it's never going to reach my brain and then we've lost So it can't be too hydrophobic. That's all it says here three there should be less than five Eight spawned Donors You know what the hydrogen bond donor is right, but I will write it anyway as an example and Four there should be less than ten eight spawned acceptors That would just be an O Both rule three and four refer to the fact that if there are too many hydrogen bond donors and acceptors This small molecule would be very hydrophilic and if it's very hydrophilic It's certainly going to be very soluble in the blood, which is good but then it will not be able to go through say the membrane and the particular the blood brain barrier and Most of the binding sites for these small drugs are also going to be small and hydrophobic So it can't be too hydrophilic and it can't be too hydrophobic It has to be just right in between and it can't be too large either Then I always started to restrict these drugs quite a lot There is a fifth rule that is not really a real Lepinsky rule, but I'll add that in a second But just to show you an example drug That fulfills these rules. Do you know what this is? This is that's a PAM. Do you know what that's a PAM is? Well, you probably haven't heard of it and that's because many of these drugs They have one chemical name which is the real the real scientific name we use for them But then drug design companies, pharma companies They want a fancy marketing name And this marketing name is frequently different in Europe versus the US partly because they want to be able to protect the name rights So That's a PAM that you've never heard of that is the molecule usually sold under the marketing name Valium So this is a strong sedative and everything It is successful. There are not too many side effects, but it's relatively easy to overdose on So it's it's certainly not a non dangerous drug That's a PAM is I forgot what the exact molecular weight is but it's relatively small So it certainly fulfills this one. It also fulfills log p again I don't remember exactly what it is. The point is that it fulfills it there is a three hydrogen bond acceptors and not a single hydrogen bond donor if I recall correctly So again, we're well within the range of these two limits, too Then there is something else here. That's very nice. There is only a single large bond that can rotate here And I'll add that as the fifth. Occasionally we we say This is not really an original Lipinski rule of five, but occasionally we say less than five freely rotating Bonds So why is it so bad to have freely rotating bonds? Well, that has to do with the free energy in exactly the same way that you learned from protein folding So if you were to have two molecules one that is very floppy and flexible, let's say with 10 freely rotating bonds here What's going to happen to the entropy of that molecule once you force it to actually go into a binding site? That's right You can have a gigantic reduction in entropy if the molecule was very free out of water If you have a gigantic reduction in entropy, that means that it's not going to be good for free energy at all It's likely not going to be an efficient binder But drugs with lots of these aromatic rings lots of things that are tied up here So it can't really rotate that much. It's already restricted out in water So when you're moving this molecule from the water to the binding site, there is not a gigantic reduction in entropy And that means that we will likely get a free better free energy of binding The other less noble part is that the more freely rotating bonds there are The harder it is for us to predict what the exact shape of it is So it's simply it's easier to work with molecules that are not as flexible, but that wasn't really Lipinski's rule Again, these are purely phenomenological. These are things that usually make used to make for good drugs So when how frequently is it that we get a new drug like this? Doesn't happen anymore. The problem is that at least when I looked at this a few years ago We hadn't had a new drug fulfilling all the Lipinski's rules of 5 since 1996 So this classical traditional drug design doesn't really work anymore There are either side effects or for whatever reason they never make it to the market So it's harder much harder to design drugs than we think a whole bunch of these traditional drugs say aspirin They would likely not Be approved on the market they appear today because there are side effects that 50 or 100 years ago We consider them acceptable by today's standards. They're not acceptable anymore And this is why drug design is so expensive most drugs tend to fail There are very few that make it all the way and the further along you are the riskier things get because you've invested so much money


and welcome to the Dominic Dawes show. I'm Joe Wamba, joined now with men's ice hockey head coach Dominic Dawes. And coach, let's talk about the weekend a little bit. First of all, with that game versus Newman? I mean, well, it was, I think, a tough weekend, all in all. But first night with Newman, I thought we played hard. We just, again, we get in little funks in terms of taking some bad penalties and doesn't kind of help us scratch and claw our way back. We took a five minute penalty, about 30 seconds into the game. And I think that put us back right out of the gate. And I think just guys got tired, worn out, and we struggled to fight back. I think the difference in the game was we just couldn't generate chances or quality chances. And I think that was a big difference. And that might be the evidence of the maturity level. Are you still growing the program and the mentality and getting things going as well? Yeah, I mean, they had 15 seniors, and we had 25 freshmen. But honestly, we're well into this now, and nobody's a freshman anymore. And we've got to find ways. If we're going to win games, we've got to find ways to be successful. And there really ultimately is no excuse. We just, I think, to some degree, got all worked. And that's the mentality to have, instead of just relying on puck luck, try to get things going your own way. For sure, yeah. And I think the puck luck thing was definitely at its impact the second night. Again, we took a couple untimely penalties that hurt us in terms of battling back. But I thought the Manhattanville game, I don't think, was indicative of the score. We thought it was one of the better games we've played in a while in terms of energy and pace. And we just couldn't find much luck. And they got a couple of good bounces. We're not, you know, scored a power play goal. I think their second goal of the game, just throwing it at the net and one of our guys in the skate. And sometimes that happens. But we told our guys is, you know, we start putting more pucks than that. You start to get that luck yourself. And you've got to make your own luck. Yeah, almost no shot is a bad shot. Exactly, yeah. Now let's talk about the road trip that you guys got upcoming this week headed up to Buffalo State long road trip. Yeah, headed up to Buff State should be a good fun trip. But a good chance for the guys to get on the bus and be together and spend some time together. But we'll play two up there. They're off to a very good start. They've consistently, over the last couple of years, been a pretty strong program. So we're excited about the challenge. We'd like to get back in the win column. But for us, it's always kind of one day at a time. Well, coach, good luck with this opportunity upcoming this weekend. And we'll talk to you next week. Thank you. Talk to you next week. He's Dominic Dawes. I'm Joe Wamba. And this has been the Dominic Dawes Show.


What's going on, everyone? Sam here, late in sports card. Drippin' 22, Bowman Draft, baseball, Super Jumbo, six box, full case break, number three, random team style. Here's a look again at your random results. As always, you can find these on the website, under the results tab, as well as the link in chat. So good luck, everybody. Let's do some Super Jumbo. I'm gonna do it the, I'm gonna do it the cutting the packs way. Cause these are the Nunchuck packs. Just look at how big the boxes are, dude. It's kind of unreal, unreal. It's up a little far. Here's what we're gonna do.  Nice. Full on fighting whoever took my knife. Fighting. I bet Forrest took it home with him. That's what he did. That's what Forrest did. So you got boom, boom, boom, boom, empty box. Got your Nunchuck packs. So we're just gonna take a little pair of scissors, and boom. So I'm gonna figure out which side is the parallel side, which side is the auto side. And then once we get that, I'll open, I get all the capac cut, and then we'll go from there. So nice. That'd be difficult. All right, so again, no paper base will ship. We'll just kind of go through there. Got your Chrome. All your Chrome will ship, whether it be autos, numbered. What's up, Shorts? Sure, it's been a while, man. How you doing? Shorts. We had a happy holiday, my friend. Factors. Yeah, Super Jumbo's always this way, though. It's not really like a year-to-year basis, they're switching it. This is always how Bowman Drap Super Jumbo goes. Got a gold. That ain't bad. Gold auto, maybe? The paper base will not ship. Going through your Chrome's now. All your Chrome's will ship. See what this gold's all about here. We've got gold, Joshua Baez. Nice one there for the Cardinals to 50. Congrats, Cardinals. On to your Refractors now. There's Christian McKero. Wow, nice. Insert auto, going to the Nationals. Congrats, Washington. That's pretty cool, Kahoon K. Two jackpots, six K, wow. Sounds like you're gonna be in the market for some Top's Chrome Star Wars Galaxy Shorts. So, I don't even remember which side was the card. Let's go Shorts. Okay, so, apparently the first card on this side is always gonna be a Chrome, so we'll do that. We'll go like this. That's our Chrome base. Gonna go just go through that. We see an auto, we see some parallels. We'll always stop on, of course. Gotta give Shawn something to do.  And paper. Two more lines of the Immaculate coming out. There you go. So, this looks like our parallel side, plus our auto side. There's Luis on Helicunia Sky Blue Paper 2.499 for the Rangers. Oops, went a little past that one. There's auto, it's gonna be Gavin Cross. Nice one there, that is actually who you're looking for. Wow, there we go, to 99. Congrats, Royals. Wow, Jeff G.R. There we go, it's not expecting Gavin Cross to come out of there. Let's go, dude. Heck yeah, man. We'll get that magged up for you. Geez, what a start. Who's your PC shorts? Are you Portland for the most part? Like Portland stuff? Boom, boom, boom. There's an Invicta Anthony Gutierrez. Now onto your refractor. This is a holiday refractor, first. Who's your PC shorts? Are you like Trailblazers?  Oregon, University of Oregon, Portland Trailblazers. Trying to think, who would your baseball team be? Like the Mariners, Mariners Seahawks, is that where you go? Refractors. Base. We should have our auto slash parallels on this side now. We've got a purple cooling freezing alarm to 250. Warming Bernabell. Yeah, I was gonna say that Mercara was a variation as well, which is cool. But yeah, that Cross was image variation auto. That's sick, dude. Yeah, congrats, card chasing. We've got purple Alexis Hernandez to 250. Auto is gonna be Zack Nido, Nido, Nido. Very nice, congrats, Angels. We've hit really good autos for the first three guys. That's insane. Grats on that, there we go, Angels. Picked up the cookbook today, there we go. There we go, Shane. Yeah, Shane hit that one-of-one jumbo laundry tag in his cookbook, let it out of origins. Yeah, I think it was nasty. I think he said he just got it today. At a boy. Fire, dude. At a boy. Cutter coffee. Sky blue paper to 4.99 for the Red Sox onto our Chrome and Refractors. So there's a holiday first in there. Another image variation this time, Kumar Rocker. Oh my gosh, Kubaleo to 99. Wow, man. We had a Vecchero, a Cross, and now a Kumar Rocker. All in one box, image variations to 99. Unbelievable. Let's go, congrats to Kubaleo with the Rangers. Let's go, man. Probably won't be for a little bit. Shorts would be my guess. I don't know if it's on the release calendar yet. See, can we hit four image variations in one box? Plus, the only one we hit was a base needle, which is very solid. Jason Dominguez to 199, Aqua Paper. Favorite for rookie of the year. Probably Gunnar Henderson in the AL. There's a Cooper Scherp to 199 on the Aqua Lava. It's probably Gunnar Henderson for the AL. And now I don't really know. There's Alex McFarland, Teal Lava to 199 for the Phillies. And base, all right, that'll do it for box one. And paper. I think a lot of it's gonna be if guys get called up as well too, Greg. But I would say Gunnar Henderson's definitely a big favorite in the AL. And then it could be a couple of the Japanese guys as well, like the pitcher for the Mets and the outfielder for the Red Sox could be another one. Their names are escaping me a little bit. Those could be potential favorites. There's a few guys. So it'll be another good class as always, you know. Stuff Elon. Hope you had a happy holidays, buddy. Kentucky's finest. Sam. Elon F? He is him. Hymethique, Hymianutron. I hate that. I hate that. The hymn thing. He's so hymn, bro. You're hymn, bro. I'm hymn. Who are you? I'm also hymn. No. Because apparently we're using it for anybody. If we're calling you hymn, that's the way we're just throwing it around now. Clearly. Clearly we're just throwing it around. Clearly we're just so much of fools now. You are not hymn. That looks like I grabbed our... It's gonna be a parallel.  Yeah, yeah. I'd say Choryo's probably a year or two away. So he's too young. Like he's still, he's 18 years old, you know. He'll be up soon though. He's gonna be fun to watch. There's, literally speaking of, there's a Jackson Choryo. That's insane, Greg. Green Mini Diamonds to 99 for the brew crew. There's another image variation, Oscar Coloss going to the White Sox. Brad W on the combo spot to 99. Congrats, buddy. Heist one there. That's so sick. Dude, three image variations so far. No, four image variations now.  He was like, his first autos were all in the earlier Bowman, like the 22 with Watson and James Wood. And now, he was redemption in everything. Him and Triatos were like the two big redemptions for the Cubs and now having a live cola. That's one of the first I've ever seen right there. So that's pretty awesome. All right, so we'll go through the non auto packs, which are gonna be on my right side now. I think Ellie has a shot at making the Reds roster. I think he definitely has a shot at making the Reds roster. He might be a year away or so too, or it could be a later call up potentially, but I think he's got a shot. I think why not, you know? It's not like the Reds have no offense, it's not like the Reds have a lot else to look forward to with like their projected opening day roster. You might as well throw Ellie, De La Cruz, sell some tickets. Why not? Is it Gavin Cross first for Fracter? And Vase? I don't know if you know about my new shtick with one of the players in this now. Oh, they don't really want to know. Oh, you do. Just hope, just pray we pull an auto of his. That's all I'm saying. Jake's a big fan of it. Jake, Jake that works here? Yeah. That doesn't, there's nothing.  I'm talking about that one. Now that guy right there, he needs some help. Who? He does. I told him about that too. He's like, what do I need help with? Everything, kid. Everything. Vulpi's got a shot too. Vulpi might be on the opening day, Ross, or be still a yankie by opening day. I mean, there's obviously a lot of trade talks with Reynolds from the pirates We'll see it's gonna be another good year.  Oh, you know That's that's that's wild dude. That is why we pulled so many image variation put all like all the top guys basically We just need a holiday image variation. We got everybody basically.  No, okay that that's a little weird I don't like tomato soup Yeah, Ellie's huge dude. Ellie Daylockers is a giant. This is Owen Murphy It's a 499 We have another image variation in coming Sean. Yeah, you know, it's beautiful green Silas Ardoin 78 out of 99 auto going to the Orioles Congrats Baltimore. Very nice That is whining each Congrats whining That's well, that's just that's two in this box and three in the first Elon We had three image variation autos in the first and we have two so far in this box There's Nick Bittison to 199. I Someone's got to stop this guy too behind me Someone someone's got to tell him to chill me. Yeah. Oh, yeah There's Jose Ramos blue to 150 See that I'd be in on if you go somewhere that serves like Your stick is grilled cheese. I'm in dude another Kumar rocker to 99 Wow Hockey's baby. Let's go To Kumar rockers to Christian Baccaros and Oscar Coloss and a Gavin Cross Unbelievable mad that one too. Holy cow, man This is unbelievable. This is unbelievable three six image variations in two boxes all number to 99 Unbelievable. There's a green Ben Joyce to 99 paper for the angels purple Hendry Mendez to 250 Dude another Gavin cross Oh my god to 99 for the Royals Oh, holy cow. Oh We are so back. We are so back after this right here. Wow, man. That is seven seven in two boxes Unreal will mad that cross for you to Royals Jeff gr. Hopefully still in here, man to to for you Jeff Jeff said thanks for the Gavin cross auto. We said Jeff. We're getting you another one We said Jeff, we're gonna get you six the way this is going we're gonna get you six Gavin cross variations All right, let's go into the next one see if we can keep this up. Holy cow, man to rockers to crosses to Baccaros and a Coloss Unbelievable man unbelievable congrats to just everybody who's in this man. This is this is fantastic. This is a blast right now Yeah, so this is the parallel pack. I've literally have done that in every single box so far I've opened the auto slash parallel in the first first instead Zach beam to 199 for the Rockies and get it again. We're getting more image variations, dude. That's gonna be Jared McKenzie to 99 on the green speckle Yeah, you have to be right for sure, Tony There's JR Richie refractor auto 499 for the Braves not an image variation sad face on that one not bad though and Go to this side go down these five non parallel packs. Yeah, that's what you're saying earlier Jeff you're saying that The hot cases with the image variations Because we got the Baccaro and I was like, all right, that's cool.
