issues take one. I'm Tim Appichell, your host. And today's topic and title is Trump's judicial preferential treatment. This week, we just found out that Donald Trump didn't have to come up with the amount of $454 million to post for his bond and for his appeal.  How about $175 million? And by the way, we're going to extend the deadline from Monday, and I think we're going to give you 10 more days in which to collect the money. This is very rare. Most defendants don't get that sort of treatment, hence the title of the show, preferential treatment. So with me to discuss that today is my co-host Jay Fidel and our special esteemed guest, Chuck Crumpton. Welcome back, Chuck, and good morning, gentlemen. So, Jay, to you, can you come up with any plausible alternative facts of why the appellate court would just be so generous to grant Donald Trump a reduction of what he needs to show for bonding of $175 million versus the $454 million, and give him another 10 days to come up with a cash? No. No, okay. Chuck, no. Expand, Jay, please, expand. Well, you know, I practiced this, you know, for decades in this state, and, you know, if you got a judgment to get somebody and they wanted to appeal, fine. But while they were appealing, you could collect the judgment unless there was a super city as fun. And that secure the plaintiff's claim, the judgment. And I thought that was, you know, a black letter all over the country, everywhere in the American system. But I guess not. And what is so interesting here is that the appellate division, which is the Intermediate Court of Appeals in New York, came up with this change. Where did they pull up the 175? Now, I thought I heard somebody say, well, that was what Trump's lawyers said they could afford if they really got pressed. But, you know, that's not the test of it at all. The test of it is, you know, what will secure the $454 million judgment, plus, plus additional interest, plus a kicker for all the expenses involved on the plaintiff's side to wait and collect. And so, you know, what's really remarkable here is that they found this number out of thin air. They found that 10-day thing out of thin air. That's not the rules. And at the same time, they said they were not questioning the judgment itself. Well, okay, I understand that because Trump has not appealed the judgment itself. He's only asking for time to post his security. But the bottom line is, this was really a shocker rule. And I'm sure that a truck is going to have the same reaction, because it doesn't comport with the practice in this state or any other state that we know of. Pellet courts don't do that. They're making it out of whole cloth. And so, what you get is favoritism. That's the way it shakes out. And what is surprising is that all three of the judges on the panel in the appellate division were Democrats appointed by Democratic governors of New York. Why in the world would they come up with this? Why would they shower really a huge benefit? Let me do the math. A $300 million benefit on Trump. Why didn't the plaintiff have the right, the state of New York have the right to take his properties? That was what the law says. It's really hard to figure out why the appellate division did that, except to show some kind of favoritism on the basis that he was a court president before, a former president, or that he was a sad situation where he had no money, even though he's boasted about being a multi-billionaire so many times in the past. I mean, it just doesn't seem insistent and it doesn't seem fair. It doesn't seem fair to me or you or Chuck because if we were in similar circumstances, no court would do that. No court. Okay. Well, let's go to that real quick. The fairness issue. Does what appears to be preferential treatment to Donald Trump, does that hurt the credibility of the court system, the judicial system? And I'm not going to go into detail about the Supreme Court and all the little benefits and gifts they've been getting on for years now. What's the credibility of the justice system when we see what looks like an apparent misapplication of the law for preferential treatment to Donald Trump? Well, I thought it was only Eileen Cannon. I thought it was only Clarence de Clown of the Supreme Court and other members of the Supreme Court. I did not think it was going to reveal itself in the appellate vision of New York State with a panel of three Democrats. I do not understand, but what I come away with, your point, is that, you know, Houston, we have a problem in the justice system. It doesn't follow the law. It is not fair to the ordinary person. And ultimately, it's across the board. I don't know why the appellate vision didn't think of that themselves. What is carved on the Supreme Court that is the New York Supreme Court, which is like our circuit court building, which a quote from George Washington, you know, the firmest point of government is public confidence or words to that effect. How can you have public confidence in a system that is inexplicable and that is clearly favoring the big guys, you know, the 12 more presidents and the like, the stars from the network television, the guys who manipulate the press, the guys who do outrageous things, why in the world would you put a benefit on him? What are they blinded? They blinded by his notoriety. That's what it is. I just don't understand it. Okay. Well, well, maybe through the discussion of this show, we'll get a little bit closer to the wise.  He's being treated especially with preferential treatment. Do you agree with Jay as it's a mystery of to why the court reduced his amount required down to 175 and that he was given an additional 10 days to come up with the money? Well, unless George Conway is right and the three Democrats got together and said, you know what, being able to collect 175 mil is better than being able to collect nothing. So we'll take it. Well, okay, let me stop you right there. What happened if Donald Trump couldn't come up with the 454? All that means is that the appeal doesn't go forward, right? No, the appeal does go forward. It just means that they can collect. They can start collection action. It doesn't affect the appeal at all. Oh, okay. Let me jump in on one thing you said, Chuck. And that is if they don't put up a bond, if they don't put up the cash, if they don't put up some kind of supersidious security and he appeals or not appeals, it doesn't matter. The judgment is enforceable. Okay. And I would relish personally, I'm not in practice anymore, but I would relish personally the notion of going after the Trump Tower, going after the golf clubs, going after his assets. You know, he's claiming he has claimed for years to be a billionaire. It would be like rub your hands together, let's go for it, boys. And you know, you could have tremendous effect in your efforts at collection. And furthermore, I like to add that in New York, as in Hawaii, you have the right, the plaintiff had the right to examine under oath the judgment debtor. And that would be an examination, effectively a deposition under oath that would be memorable. So, you know, it would be, I would relish the idea of going after his assets. And I think, honestly, I think from what we do know, it could be collected, all 454 million plus. Sorry. Chuck, yeah, so go ahead, continue. You said it doesn't, it doesn't affect the appeal whatsoever. No, it doesn't affect his appeal rights at all. The only thing it affects, as Jay said, is the collection can proceed. The collection problem, though, for the creditors for New York State is going to be piercing the veil to get Trump because the judgment's against Trump, right? Not against corporation A, corporation B, LLC, C, whatever. So, you've got to get him individually. Any of those can file Chapter 13, Chapter 11, they can stop things right there. But because it's a fraud judgment, it's not dischargeable in bankruptcy. So, to the extent that it is treated in bankruptcy as a fraud judgment, he can't discharge it. It's stuck. But it's the judgment against him. Will he marshal his assets to get rid of it because he can't? If he really was going to simply just avoid collection, he would have gone ahead and started to file Chapter 13s and Chapter 11s for the corporations that owned the Trump Towers and the golf courses and myra lago and all that stuff to protect those assets from the judgment against him. But exploring the reasons for why he hasn't done that and how the appellate court came up with, there's no legal or factual justification either for A, the appellate court to even take the issue of the bond. I have never in 45 years of practice seen an appellate court consider a bond issue appealed just the issue of the amount of the bond. I'm sure it's been done somewhere in our history. There could be this bond as politically motivated or this bond was fraudulently obtained or they bribed the judge to get this high bond or whatever. You could do that, but that's not involved here. And if you look for the decision on the internet, I couldn't find it. I could find no citation of a single reason for the bond reduction. So there's no legal basis for the court to exercise the jurisdiction to do it. There's no legal basis for the court to exercise the discretion to reduce the amount. And there is no legal or factual basis for the amount that they substituted for the amount that the judge who knows the case, who knows what bond is legally justified based on the experience setting bonds for however many years that judge has sat on the bench. So you've got a bunch of appellate judges. It's a mystery for sure. Let me a couple of points on that. Number one is even if there was a decision, it'd be hard for us here today, the three of us, to figure out what that might have said because you can bat your head against the wall and try to figure out what they would have said to justify it. Hard to do that. In the absence of a decision, it's really impossible. Well, you can make the same kind of statement of concern. But anyway, I want to go into one other thing. Up till now, Trump has had the judgment has not been enforced. I'm sorry, the judgment has not been enforced. Yeah. And part of the judgment is that Trump has to suffer a monitor for his companies and that he is not supposed to be in charge. He's removed as the chief executive and his family removed as the chief executive. But that's not yet enforceable. And it hasn't yet come to pass. So what do you think Trump is doing to establish conveyances and transfers to move his assets out of harm's way? This is a classic concern about fraudulent conveyance to be the judgment. And he is probably a very busy boy already, now immediately, to move his assets around. There was a chart in the New York Times today about how he moves assets donations through various corporations and LLCs to pay his own legal fees with them. And it was a schematic with all these entities in this chart. And you say to yourself, this is a man who has lied thousands of times. This is a man who has conducted his real estate practice as a fraudulent enterprise. Do you think he would not move his assets right now before it all hits home? So one of the worst things this intermediate court did is to delay that, giving Trump another 30 days to protect his assets by moving him around on that kind of schematic. So they did beyond recovery at the end of the day. And that was really done, in my opinion. There's no justification whatsoever. The reason that Engaran put the monitor provision in his judgment was to avoid that exact thing. But now the fact is that there is no monitor yet, and Trump can do that. The reason he put that vision about not allowing the family or Trump to be the chief executive of these various entities, that's the reason too, to avoid Trump moving things around. It's not enforceable. And now we have another 10 days more or more before it actually hits home. So I think for reasons, it's not only they reduced it to 175, they put the whole thing on ice, including the provisions that were intended to avoid fraudulent transfer. Good point. The one other thing, and this follows directly from what Jay just said. The principal job of the courts in every single case is to balance the rights and interests of the parties. In this case, there has been a full trial adjudication that the state of New York, represented by Leticia James and her office, is entitled to principal plus interest of $454 million, accruing interest and so that's a higher number now. Absolutely no attention, no mention, nothing was done to engage in a balancing of the rights of the state of New York, the people of New York. There's no reference to it in any article. There's no reference to any mention of it in the decision. So the Intermediate Court of Appeals has failed in its most core value duty, which is to engage in that balancing of rights and interests. That is the first and foremost job of the judiciary. They have simply abandoned that entire responsibility. They have not conducted themselves as a court. There is no justification for- If you're a New Yorker, then where's your faith in the justice system of New York, which I mentioned earlier. Let me get your thoughts on something here. I want to talk about another example of what I perceive to be preferential treatment for Donald Trump by the justice system, and that is the immunity case. So Chuck, here we have a very, very closely written black and white decision that Trump, from the district court of appeals, that Trump is not immune from criminal prosecution as president. It was very, very tightly written. Yet, lo and behold, the Supreme Court takes it up. And then Trump is using that as a basis to try to delay all his other cases. So what's your take on the immunity case and whether or not that fits the pattern of what I would consider preferential treatment by the justice system? I like the question, Tim, because it goes right back to the point that I just emphasized. In any judicial proceeding, the very first thing you look at is what are the rights and interests of each of the parties, and how did the court engage in an evaluation and a balancing and termination and adjudication of those rights and interests? That hasn't happened. The Supreme Court has not engaged in an evaluation and balancing of the rights and interests of opposing parties in any of its recent decisions to any perceptible degree. That's not what's going on. That's not what they're doing. They're doing exactly what they're accused of, and that is they're predetermining a result, and they're backing the car into that garage in whatever manner they can to get the car in the garage and then slam the garage door shut.  I'm actually saying more than that. I'm saying that they have completely abandoned the primary responsibility and priority of a judicial body. They have not either evaluated nor balanced the rights and interests of the parties. Okay. They have essentially predetermined which party is going to get what they want, and they got there. They made up history in the abortion case, which was false. That's been shown. They've made up pretext in the LGBTQ cases. They're a completely result-oriented court. They give no attention or consideration to either principle or process. There is nothing left of the rule of law with the Trump majority in our Supreme Court. The only thing left of the rule of law is read the opinions of Sotomayor, Jackson, and occasionally Kagan. You will see this is where the rule of law used to be. This is where it needs to be. That's been completely abrogated. Okay. Jay, your take on the immunity case, whether or not the Supreme Court did as Checks suggested. You read on it, please. I'd go a step further. They have no regard for public confidence, like in George Washington's quote. They really don't care the reaction of the public in the country, the reaction of the public in terms of confidence in our judicial system. They do these things out in the open. It's the emperor's new clothes. They're not wearing practice, procedure, precedent, or public confidence. Over time, that's not sustainable. You can't have a democracy where people don't believe in it, and they're telling us, don't believe in it because we're all politicized now. This is very, very troubling. It's troubling in the immediate term, but it's also troubling in the long term. I'm very worried that over time, this is going to have a really, really toxic effect on the country in general. As for the immunity clause, it's like to go a step further. I make the claim that the moon is made out of blue cheese. There's no legal priority. There's no legal precedent for this kind of claim. It's throwing it on the wall and seeing if it'll stick. That's what Trump and his lawyers do. That's what they've always done through a lifetime of Trump's real estate practice. You throw it on the wall. So the moon is made out of blue cheese, and you lay that on, and the Supreme Quest says, well, we're not sure. Maybe it's some other kind of cheese, and we are going to put it off. The action in putting it off is actually ruling in his favor, because everybody knows, down to the last guy in the last Republican cell in the country, we all know that his game is delay, and they gave him the delay. It almost doesn't matter what they do in terms of the ultimate decision on the immunity question. By the way, it struck me as Trump was talking, if they're going to fabricate this immunity right, why is it limited to the president? The Constitution doesn't limit any such right to the president. What about the vice president? What about the speaker of the house? What about the president of the Senate? What about any elected official? You could extend that all around the country, make everybody immune on the non-legal theory that these guys are entertaining. If he wins this crazy claim, this ticket on the wall claim over immunity, there's going to be more by more people. So not only do you lose public confidence, not only do you lose the notion of president and fairness in the court following the law, you lose everything because you know that people will make the same damn claim. There's no distinction really for this purpose between the president and any other public official. And Tim, one of the things that we need to be really mindful of, there is a third case, which demonstrates even more graphically, even more undeniably, even more starkly, the complete abandonment by the Trump majority on the Supreme Court of anything like judicial independence, judicial responsibility, any of that. And that's the case in which they abrogated the decision of the Colorado judge who went through full trial of whether Trump did participate in the insurrection within the meaning of 14th Amendment Section 3 found based on a strong preponderance of the evidence, overwhelming preponderance of the evidence that he did, it made some findings that were clearly maybe even intentionally legal error. The Colorado Supreme Court fixed those legal errors. So by the time it got to the Supreme Court, there was really nothing for the Supreme Court to reverse, to put Trump back on the ballot. So they made up out of whole cloth, state courts don't have the jurisdiction to enforce Article 14th Amendment Section 3. Where the hell did that come from? There is no precedent for that. There is no historical basis for that. There is no jurisdictional judicial basis for denying the states the authority to enforce the 14th Amendment. Okay, I guess worse. I guess worse. What they did is they gutted Section 3. Yeah, because that ruling Section 3 is meaningless now on the federal level. It's really awful. And by the way, we're talking now, let's see how much we've covered. We covered the New York civil case by the state of New York. We've covered the cases that fall subject to the immunity argument. And that would be Jack Smith's cases in both Florida, am I right? And in Washington. And we should talk about Eileen Cannon, because she's special. And we should talk about Fonny Willis. Don't overgave time. I do want to ask this though, because we're out of time. And that is, you know, the concept that the defendant is entitled to a speedy trial. What about the public's entitlement to justice? And that is to know whether or not your candidate for President of the United States is guilty or not guilty before the election of President of the United States. Doesn't the public have some kind of skin in the game to know whether or not your candidate is guilty of 91 indictments? Where is that? Where do we leave that, Jay? And it seems to be a second priority. First priority is Trump's rights, Trump's appellate rights, Trump's squawking about everything about how he's a victim. But, you know, there's nobody out there, a very good point to him. Nobody out there is saying, what about the public? And my point, what about public confidence?  This is like the OJ case. Remember how he got off and everybody was shaken and said, what happened here? Sure, it seems like he's guilty. And we lost confidence in that case in the justice system. But this is much worse, because this involves the government itself, the democracy itself, and it involves a number of proceedings, and it involves a number of indictments. So where does the average citizen go? Where does he compete on this? Well, yeah. So Chuck, to you, who would be the best advocate to stand up for the citizen's rights to know what justice served or not served before the election of a president? Good question, because the answer is the media. The answer is the media. Well, yeah, and there's another abrogation of responsibility that's at least several more shows of its own. But if you're going to have a judiciary serve any function, if it's going to adjudicate to anything, it has to adjudicate rights and interests. It has to adjudicate them in a manner in a manner that has some legal and factual support for it. And it has to adjudicate them in a manner that both defines those rights and interests and balances them when they conflict or compete in ways that are sufficiently consistent that they can be applied not only by other courts, but by citizens, by law enforcement, by people who have to live according to the rules. In other words, in order to have a rule of law, it has to be defined, clarified, consistently interpreted and consistently enforced. We now have a judiciary exemplified by our Supreme Court, if you can use that word, that has abandoned all pretense of any rule of law. All right. We have run out of time, so Chuck, I'll ask you for your last question. But other than that, they're doing a pretty good job. Other than that, other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the plan? Would you like the plan? All right, so Chuck, your last thoughts on this subject matter, Trump's judicial preferential treatment? I think there is serious ground for question of whether there is even any ground for hope in our current judiciary. Wow. Think about that statement. Jay, last word, and Chuck just delivered a fairly morose statement, but there it is. Your thoughts? Well, this actually can be fixed. At the Supreme Court level, it could be fixed by reform, by adding additional justices. That would fix it, actually. And I guess at the Eileen Cannon level, it could be fixed by an impeachment of a judge who is clearly incompetent and politicized. And so each one of these problem areas that we talked about can legally theoretically be fixed. But the problem is, right now, the implication of what we've been talking about spills into the political arena. It is connected at the hip with the political arena. And that means the election in November. So the question I put, and I put it to myself, is whether people, voters, are going to be affected by what has been happening. The favoritism that Trump is enjoying right now, will the Republicans vote against him because of that? Will the Democrats vote against him or not vote at all? And I suggest, this is the dark side of it, I suggest that the Republicans are going to be joyful because they don't care about the rule of law. They only care about Trump. I mean, the MAGA Republicans, which is a lot of Republicans. And the Democrats are, you know, they're apathetic. Oh gee, whiz, too bad. And the problem is, I think in the end of the day, what we're talking about here is going to have a really bad effect on the election in November. It actually works in Trump's favor. And that means it's more likely that he will win and less likely that any of these problems will be fixed. Okay. Well, thanks for you gentlemen for a very serious and sobering discussion. I am, as Jay likes to put it, after the show, I'm going to soak my head in some cold water. I'd like to thank my special guest, special esteemed guest, Chuck Crumpton, for his attendance and his, as always, very wise comments and perspectives. I would like to thank my co-host, Jay Fidel for the same. I'm Tim Mapachello for American Issues Take One, and please join us next week. And until then, aloha.


Item Number – SCP-4087 Object Class – Euclid Special Containment Procedures Foundation assets embedded in European and American law enforcement agencies are to monitor ongoing homicide investigations for markers consistent with the use of an SCP-4087 instance. When these markers are found and no murder weapon exists, a replica of similar make and design is to be provided. In the unlikely event that an additional instance of SCP-4087 is recovered, it is to be immersed in a cubic meter of concrete and transported to a deep geological repository for indefinite storage. Description – SCP-4087 is a set of antique spring-driven push-button knives. Each blade is 9.2 cm in length and composed of stainless steel. They were produced by Gavrilo Maniago, an Italian knife maker, as part of a private commission. He only completed six prior to his murder in 1914. SCP-4087 was first identified in 1973, after a mathematical model created by the Foundation's Department of Analytics linked them to over 100 homicides across 50 years. In each case, law enforcement identified one of the six knives as the murder weapon.  As of 1975, all six knives have been recovered and accounted for. Since then, over 200 additional homicides have identified an identical knife as the murder weapon. An investigation into these homicides has determined that, despite all evidence to the contrary, no actual murder weapon exists. After a thorough forensic examination of all six knives, researchers have made the following observations. They exhibit no observable anomalous properties. They lack any sign of significant wear or use.

Description SCP-001 is a collection of anomalous items, formerly a single massive mechanical entity assembled by members of the Church of the Broken God in late 1942 near La Paz, Mexico. Items include SCP-217, SCP-1139, SCP-AA2, and several internal components of SCP-629. A full list is available here. Members of the Church combine the various anomalous objects in an effort to restore their deity. Upon activation, SCP-001 reportedly began to integrate metallic objects into itself while actively seeking other anomalous objects. SCP-001, and the resulting 001 Apotheosis Event that took place as a result of its assembly, was the cause of significant environmental damage in western Mexico, and required one of the most widespread use of anesthetics to date. Post-event, the active components of SCP-001 were taken to Foundation sites for containment, while the inactive component of SCP-001 remained on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico at approximately 23.807269, negative 108.418369. Addendum 001.01 Collected information describing SCP-001 Transcription of statement by Father George Castillo, August 1945 Fernand was the first, I think, the first who contacted me after they had found a heart. Their way to describe it, the fervor that was in their eyes, it captivated me and I knew then, I knew that they had done it. I went to meet with Anthony and Salvador the weekend after my sister's confirmation. When they showed it to me, I was taken aback. It was little more than a pile of gears, pistons, ticking pieces of clockwork, and lubricated metal parts, all dutifully churning along without a power source. Within it I saw the heart, just as they described. It spoke to me, not like you and I would speak to each other, but with images, and feelings, and pain. It wasn't so much pain, like the spark that had given it life had made it realize what it was, or what it wasn't, and it desired only to be whole again. Desire is a strong word, perhaps, not desire, more than it was impulse. Something within the creature drove it forward towards some unthinking, unfaltering end. The creature they presented to me was not like the other artifacts I had found and blessed. This one was different, there was something wrong with it, and I did not know until later what they had done. I begged Salvador to take it back to that beach and undo it, that it was not right, but that they would hear nothing of it. It started moving before I left, shaking enough from side to side that it could achieve locomotion. It hobbled over a wrench, and the wrench became part of its body. They said to me, our god is unbroken. I never saw them again. Start from an interview with Francis Bollinger in 1946. It didn't use words, or any kind of language. It would make metallic sounds, but at the same time, images and concepts would come to mind when we were around it. Have you ever felt, when you have a thought or idea, and it's all there, foreign hole in your mind? You still had to think the words for it, despite knowing the sentiment before you finished a sentence. It was like that, but from an alien mind, truly the words of the divine.

They confronted us near a church in Santa Margarita, wanted us to turn into stuff that we had collected for the Church of the Broken God, like the Abrahamic stuff we handed over. We deliberated on whether we should give it to them. Our stance with the H.I. had been a bit shaky, more so in recent memory. While we had been on good terms with the local broken churchgoers, the wolves were more, well, are more aggressive. We looked over what we had, and while we did, this woman walked up. I don't know where she came from. She dressed like a hippie. Then, iron chains for hair. But she seemed distant the whole time. The look in her eyes, her abnormal smile, like she was hardly there. She looked at what we had and said she only wanted this. Uh, I don't actually know what it was, a metal box, it word and clicked, and put out this little beam of light on one end when I picked it up. Felt lighter than I would have thought. I asked why that was important to her, and she said that'd be easier to show me than tell.  She didn't move or speak after that, so I closed my eyes as well. She brought her forehead to mine, but kind of offset.  The world dropped beneath me and I fell. Something clicked in my mind, an image of two gears formally meshed together, now broken away. I felt the teeth of my spine arch out as I bent over. One step and I clicked along on the multidimensional cog that was the planet. It spun around the furnace of the sun, tethered to it by the chain that was gravity, and we hurled together through an oily cosmos with all the power of an infinitely unwinding spring. Sorry, it was an experience. No, it was not a religious experience, but yeah. She told me to pick the box back up and it felt a lot heavier than before. I couldn't tell if it actually had more weight or if it felt more… significant. I gave it to her and wouldn't hear anything otherwise from the wolves or my teammates or my superior. Addendum 001.02 Interview with Excommunicated Church of the Broken God Priest Father Dolores Randall, June 1945. Extraneous Dialogue Removed Alright, you mentioned the heart earlier. Where were you when they found it? No, not at all. I was out of the country at the time, working with a new mission in Panama. I only heard about Ezekiel after the fact. Who was Ezekiel? One of Bamaro's agents. Before he was made leader of the church, Robert would keep a number of them around. These individuals who were in tune with God, it could feel his presence. Speak to it. Ezekiel had discovered an artifact of some value, and Bamaro took him on afterwards. These agents were the first to experiment with the augmentations as well. As you can imagine, many of them died. But not Ezekiel? No, he was very close to Bamaro, and I don't know if he would have risked Ezekiel's well-being. It doesn't matter. Ezekiel didn't need augmentations to speak to the God. He was just capable. So what does Ezekiel have to do with the heart? You heard Avery tell you they had a stockpile of artifacts, right? Anything at one of these agents touched, that they felt something they would have had it shipped to La Paz with the rest of it. Most of it was worthless, but every now and then they would find something legitimate. The purifier, the one, whatever you call it, one of the agents discovered that near Nepal. They had tendons and ligaments and everything else, but they were all just parts. They would move on their own, but they didn't do anything together. How do you mean? The text referred to the God reassembling itself once the pieces are brought before its heart. All you need to do is feed the heart a limb, and the God will have a limb, but they couldn't find a heart. They were… a couple of agents who had claimed to have found one, but they were all the same useless piece of machinery as the rest. Where does Ezekiel figure into this? Ezekiel was the one who told Bamaro that if they could not find a heart, maybe they could build one of their own. This at the time flew directly in the face of the church doctrine. The leadership, if they had known, would have extramunicated him, but it was quickly becoming clear that the project couldn't last through to the summer. I was sent in with my mission to resupply them as their Ezekiel had left, and their supplies were nearly exhausted. Our records indicate the heart was something they discovered. Is that not true? Of course, this isn't true. You can't preach to a congregation about God giving parts of Himself to you. An internal round and teller of the most essential part is something you conjured up out of nothing. Worse than nothing, though. The details of what they did to create that heart and make it live were never revealed to me, but you can draw conclusions from evidence. There was a drought that year, and the polio crisis hit an all-time high. Thousands died, all natural causes, a freak event never accurately recorded because of the attention on the war. Dios mio, but who can say? You think the two are related? I think the time is too coincidental, and knowing what I know about what that thing became, I think the answer is clear. That was not the heart of God, agent. That was something altogether different. Extraneous Dialogue Removed Addendum 001.03 Recovered Video Transcript November 1942 Video recovered from local documentary film crew Shot began on a destroyed home, the wreckage centered around the garage. Metal fragments and strips of rubber trail down the driveway and onto the asphalt, and go down the street. Pieces of various automobiles are strewn across the street and sidewalk. The trail leads to SCP-001, which is integrating a truck into its chassis. SCP-001 continues to the nearest house, where it begins consuming the gutters. Residents of the area flee the scene, several injured by discarded shards of glass and twisted metal discharged by SCP-001. Residents produced from various parts of SCP-001's body focus on the various prone figures. A section along the undercarriage of SCP-001 alters and drops away from the main body, which continues down the street in search of more sources of material. The ejected subsection continues alterations, forming a vertical pod somewhat resembling a human spine and rib cage. Pod collapses in various areas, the rib-like protrusion extending outward as the rest of the pod changes into a humanoid form roughly three meters tall. Light is produced from the head, which is focused on a nearby civilian. The metal humanoid picks up the civilian, who appears to be dead, and places it into a small chamber between the humanoid's ribs. The ribs vibrate as the humanoid approaches the second civilian, who is attempting to crawl away. She attempts to struggle as the humanoid lifts her and places her inside his chest cavity. The humanoid turns away from the camera to approach a third civilian, and what appears to be the woman's dismembered hand falls to the floor. A growth on the humanoid's back slowly expands as it continues to gather bodies, the body of the humanoid decreasing in size as it does so. By the six-consumed body, the growth is larger than the humanoid, and it is unable to continue bipedal movement. The limbs recede into the body, and the ribs extend to allow it to scuttle onto the roof of a nearby house. It remains in place for twenty minutes. The bulbous exterior cracks and is torn away from within, revealing three humanoid's. They each appear to be symptomatic of SCP-217, and exhibit physical characteristics of the six captured civilians. One, a female with chains extending from its scalp, shakes another, which appears to be dead. The third, a male with clockwork limbs, examines itself before jumping from the roof landing on his stomach. It does not appear to be damaged by this, which seems to cause it to stress. It then pursues SCP-001, which is consuming another vehicle further down the street. The female humanoid notices a camera crew. It begins to wade but quickly stops. It looks towards SCP-001 before jumping into the backyard and out of the camera's view. Addendum 001.04 Taped phone conversation with Robert Romero Note, the following is audio from a taped phone conversation between an agent of the Church of the Broken God, named Unknown, and Robert Romero. The call was recorded in December of 1942, and was collected by Foundation personnel during a raid on a church stronghold in 1966. We'll hear nothing of it. For years we have prayed and asked for our God to be unbroken before us, and now he has presented himself. We know that the Divine will speak to the heart of the devout. Among you who are devout enough to commune with our Lord, tell me now so you can be replaced. Our faith is strong, Father. Please forgive my insolence. Don't worry for your faith. Who is stronger than you? Have him speak to the Lord and tell him the necessity for secrecy. Our Lord will understand. 01.05 Escalation Report, December 1943 The following is an interview conducted with Foundation Commander Mark Peterson of Site 74. The director, who prior to the 001 Apotheosis event was stationed in Mexico City, was on site with Foundation personnel in La Paz during the event. Start again from the top. We're recording now. All right. The first reports we got about church activity in Mexico were in 41, but it was all pretty minor at the time. We had just finished field operations near the border up north and were preparing to move our assets to Atlanta for deployment to France. We had just gotten our orders to retrieve a series of sensitive objects that they didn't want to get into the hands of the crowds, and they were going to move our entire division to get it done. Leadership wasn't sure that Roosevelt would make the call to move in enough time for us to blend in with the Americans, so we were going to have to go in separately. The whole thing was a mess. What kept you in La Paz? I was there on accident. One of our trains had taken the overland route to La Paz, probably to pick up some of the armaments we had there. Turns out that train was supposed to head north. So all of a sudden, most of the leadership south of the Rio Grande is in La Paz, which in retrospect probably does a lot of good as far as the overall effort is concerned. When did you first hear about the 001 Apotheosis entity? Jesus. Is that what they're calling it now? The machine, I guess? We first heard through the grapevine of increased activity in the area in, I guess it would have been a little over a year ago. We ended up in La Paz in October 1942, so yeah, that sounds right. The first concrete evidence we got that something was wrong was when a train of refugees seems kinda silly to call them that, but I guess that's accurate. They showed up in La Paz near the end of October, talking about how their entire town had been mulched. They didn't really elaborate, but I just kept saying La Maquina, La Maquina, you know, the machine. That's why we were calling it that. By the way, we had no idea what it was supposed to be. What about your first interaction with the entity? Well, the rail stopped running, if that's what you mean. We got worried from the local authorities that there had been an accident up north, and that the trains weren't heading to the border anymore. It wasn't a huge issue for us since we could have taken a couple of vehicles and headed east until we hit one of the little towns at the foot of the mountains. Most of them were hooked up to a separate rail line entirely, and we could have gotten out that way. But the big stuff, the stuff that the train had been sitting in La Paz for, couldn't just be moved, so we were going to wait it out. Then DeMarco had the bright idea to send the party up the rail line to see where the holdup was, and see what we could do to clear it. He led the expedition himself. What happened to Agent DeMarco?  For the record. Fine. We didn't hear back from them after three days, and we're going to send the rest of the leadership east anyways, so they didn't have to wait. But then after five days when DeMarco's guys showed up at our camp, he was delirious talking about the world-eater, and how the rest of the guys had gotten mulched. And they had, hadn't they?  DeMarco, are you alright? Yeah, he tried to kill it. He probably knew then what we wouldn't find out until later. That we couldn't contain this thing. There wasn't a hole in the world big enough to put it in, or a box it wouldn't eat its way out of. But it didn't matter for him, or anyone he went with. The machine didn't care. When did you first see it? December. Once we'd hunkered in, I was part of an expeditionary team that flew up there to get a good look at it. It was already, I mean, you saw what it did to that side of the country. I'd never seen anything that big that could move. It was like a mountain of moving parts, blackening the sky as it burned through whatever it was shoveling into its chest. And it was small then. It was, I don't know. We all had XK event preparation training, but this went above and beyond anything we had trained for. It was inevitability. We knew that we were going to die, and this thing was going to kill us. It was just a matter of win. Addendum 001.06 Collected Foundation Correspondences Note, the following are excerpts from written correspondences by Foundation personnel stationed at La Paz, recovered from the temporary site in the wake of the 001 Apotheosis event. Names have been omitted. DEAR. I don't even know if this will get to you. None of the trains are running, but our commander says that we can still get letters out. I hope it does. I'd like for you to read it. The skies down here have been dark for weeks. Smoke from up north every day makes it hard to breathe. They still don't have indoor plumbing here, and nobody but the other guys in our company speak English. We still don't know what we're down here to do either. I keep hearing we're here to fix the rails, but why aren't we going north? Aren't the brakes and the rails up north?  He was like a dead man, didn't respond to anybody. He got towards the middle of town and collapsed. When he finally woke up in the infirmary later, he was delirious, telling a story about a machine the size of a mountain that spoke to you. Said there were people jumping out of their homes and running, just to throw themselves in it. Said they were shredded, like jumping into a lawnmower, then he died and nobody knows why. The mountains crumbled before our own eyes. We saw a figure rising through the smoke, slow and lumbering but with terrifying momentum. It didn't crawl like a beast or walk like a man, though it propelled forward by the turning of a million cogs, like an iron centipede. Its body extended upwards into the smoke, higher than we could make out. Within its chest we saw fire, like the furnaces of hell. It came to the mountains north of us and did not stop, or go around, but went through and devoured them. It reached out with a long pulsing arm and pulled an entire village into its maw. I saw men leaping to their death that their homes were swept away, into the same inferno as the rest. And it howled, not just through the grinding of the gears and the turning of the machine, but in our minds. I could hear it in my heart. It was screaming. Directive, Central Command Site-001, courtesy of Temp Site Lost, La Paz and Ruins, Mechanical Entity Contained, Massive Geological Alterations, XK Avoided, Requesting Amnestic Support Addendum 001.07, Interview with GOC Lieutenant Revenant Note, the following is an excerpt of a post-event interview conducted with a GOC Lieutenant, codenamed Revenant. The recording of the interview, and all transcripts thereof, were collected by Foundation agents during a negotiated information exchange in 1992. To date, the identity of Revenant is unknown. There is a story that gets told among Foundation agents, something that the grizzled veterans will tell the Greenhorns during the long nights of guard duty on some cell block or another. I don't know who started it, but I know they still tell it. It's been a half-century, and they still get it right. You can give them that much credit. They say, don't you know? The GOC killed God. But the Greenhorns will say, no, that's not true. God is in a cell at site whatever. The GOC didn't kill God. And they're talking about that type green they've got locked up somewhere, the one who thinks he's a Christian God. Then the vets will smile and shake their heads, and won't say anything, because they all know. They know that in 1943, in the midst of the apocalypse, the Foundation could do nothing but watch the end, while the Allied Occult Initiative, a poorly funded, underman, inadequate predecessor to the Coalition, saved the world. The metaphorical gun was found on an island off the coast of Greece. I can't even remember what it looked like. All I get is some sort of fuzzy recollection the amnestics leave you with, but I distinctly recall it wasn't as heavy as you'd think. Why the amnestics? I was with an attachment deployed to the area, and apparently, one of the pieces had some mind-altering effect to it. I have a vague sense of feeling something wrong, so I'll take their word for it. I don't remember what it looked like. I can't recall how it destroyed that much land. Hell, I barely remember when it happened, and the only reason I know where is all the before and after maps. But I can still feel it, in my gut, that that wasn't how things were meant to be.  We were all too happy to oblige. Addendum 001.08 Recovered Video Transcript Note, the following is a transcript of recovered video footage, roughly 30 seconds in duration. The transcript of the clip was authored shortly after its recovery, though the video is since degraded and is no longer legible. The footage's audio is in acceptable condition, and is available for access below. Recovered Audio Warning The following audio snippet is at a high volume. 0.09 Neutralization of SCP-001 On July 17, 1943, agents from the Allied Occult Initiative contacted Foundation Director Station of La Paz, Mexico, and requested assistance with transportation towards the site of the 001 Apotheosis Entity. Foundation operatives moved quickly to dispatch a plane to retrieve the AOI members. After arriving, the agents described a unique anomalous artifact they had in their custody, and how it might be used to slow the advance of the 001 Apotheosis Entity. Three days after arriving at La Paz on July 24, 1943, the Allied Occult Initiative dispatched a single agent to the site of the 001 Apotheosis Entity with the anomalous artifact on their person. On the morning of July 25, 1943, as the 001 Apotheosis Entity approached the shore of the Pacific Ocean, another massive mechanical construct appeared overhead. The origin of this entity is currently unknown. Records of the event following the appearance of SCP-2399 are incomplete and likely inaccurate. The result of this engagement was the annihilation of SCP-001. SCP-2399 disappeared and was later discovered in low Jupiter orbit in a state of disrepair, though the reason for this is currently unknown. The remaining inactive component of SCP-001, a massive unassembled group of machine parts, remains at the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico. Upon removing SCP-AA-2 from the inactive superstructure, the remainder collapsed and became wholly inert. Following the 001 Apotheosis Event, a massive amnestic occasion of individuals in and around the area now known as Baja California took place. These efforts were aided by the quantity of thick black smoke that accompanied SCP-001, and current historical records describe the event as a forest fire. Significant effort was made to adjust maps of the area as well as relocate displaced civilians. Because of the need for a widespread amnestic regimen, several experimental neurotransformers were used, and because of their poorly understood side effects, it is estimated that no fewer than two million people across the world died in a decade following the 001 Apotheosis Event. Addendum 001.10 Collected Allied Occult Initiative Documentation Note, the following documentation was given to Foundation Personnel by POI-004-D4-001. See Addendum 001.12 It is currently unknown how the document came into POI-004-D4-001's possession. Attention General Darius, Artifact Collection Report, authored, Lt. Van Pelt, CO, Colonel Bagrum, Report Length, 57 pages. Summary of Report On December 30th, 1942, a rogue humanoid entity anomalous in nature was cited by a patrol near a small island off the coast of Greece. This entity, who claimed no name and did not communicate readily in the English tongue, was carrying a small cubic artifact no larger than a baseball. The entity appeared to be feminine and had a number of steel chains extending from its scalp. Entity was originally willing to give a possession of artifact, classified AR-213, but became hostile shortly thereafter and began speaking. Entity made threats on the lives of the squad and subdued two officers before being incapacitated by Sergeant Dixon. Entity made reference to the west of the Mexican country, demanding to be freed so that the artifact could be taken there. Further research has uncovered increased SCP Foundation activity in that area as well as some minor geological disturbances. On the orders of Colonel Bagrum, 2nd Platoon was ordered to ship to the site of the disturbances with the entity, classified EN-340 in tow. After boarding the ship bound for America, EN-340 became passive, albeit obviously uncomfortable and disturbed. Recommending further psychological evaluation of EN-340 upon return prior determination. Once announced as the AR-213 is completed, artifact will be shipped to Zurich for consideration. Report is attached for your consideration. Lieutenant R. Van Pelt, 2nd Platoon, Allied Occult Initiative Peacekeepers Addendum 001.11 Agent Ruberson Statement, January 1944 Note, Agent Aaron Ruberson was on site during the collection of SCP-001 artifacts. As the most senior member of Foundation staff assigned to the collection effort, he was required to submit a post-event statement. This report was filed at Site-17 until it was added to the other classified material related to SCP-001. It is unknown whether any other individuals had knowledge of this report or if any copies were made, the following is an excerpt from that statement. Well, we took what we good from the shores first. Little things, and gears and pulleys and pistons and things like that. A lot of it was garbage, but they were still twitching and spinning and turning. There's a life in them. The small stuff sort of died off after a couple hours, but I heard some of the bigger pieces were still turning weeks later, like cutting the head off a chicken. The important parts, the ones we knew were actual church artifacts, we managed to bag and get moved to the train in La Paz to transport. I counted, Christ, maybe a hundred individual anomalous artifacts. Some of the boys at the train station joked they'd have to build a whole new site just to keep it all. We kept casualties low, fortunately.   Rodriguez got his hand crunched and we had to help move him to the local clinic. I think we only had one death the entire time. One of the locals we hired to help dive down to the bay and get straps around the heart so we could pull it up, but I didn't see it. But I heard about it. I said they found him with his head smashed between two moving pieces. Said it looked like he shoved it in there himself. But I don't know, I didn't see it. I did see the tags.  We saw plenty of those on other pots. The stuff that they had collected while it was eating its way to the sea. None of the church artifacts did, though.  You could feel something when standing next to them, like serenity. The whole project felt like that. It felt calm, like relief. Except for the heart. When we finally got it out of the bay, you know, we had to keep it on the shore for a day because of the weather. Some of the locals started to get itchy. Said it was here in voices. They wouldn't go near it. It didn't matter how much money we offered them. Had to wait to bring in more support from the base up north just to get it loaded on the ship. I, man, I don't know. I've seen all kinds of things, but my medic resistance is pretty high. I had to pass a handful of tests just to get this assignment. Everything was clean. I can't deny getting another kind of feeling around the hot. I don't know if I'd say it was here in voices, but the tags. It was as it was leaving and loading it on the ship. It was going to take it north. I saw them for the first time. I didn't even think of saying anything. Then he even passed my mind until I saw it looking to some of the files. Then that ship crashed in the storm and they lost the hunt. And the whole time I kept thinking about those goddamn metal tags. I realized it then, I think. That wasn't a church artifact, Johnny. They said property of the factory. Addendum 001.12 Interview with POI-004-D forward slash 001 The following is an excerpt from an interview in 2009 with POI-004-D forward slash 001, who claims to be part of a previously unknown sect of the Church of the Broken God. Contact was made with the cooperation of the Unusual Incidents Unit, who had interacted with POI-004-D forward slash 001 as detailed in Addendum 001.01. So, tell me what you think you know. I see. Interesting. Well, you're not entirely wrong, and that's commendable in this day and age. There are a few key details I feel you may be overlooking, and you may be overvaluing information handed to you by a self-admitted amnesiac. The GOC did not kill Yahweh, as they may so proudly proclaim. And that was not the Broken God they destroyed. It was a piece of it, surely. But would you show me a camshaft and call it a car? Oh, so you have some parts together, an engine perhaps, but not a car? God is much simpler than that. God is everything. From the biggest star to the smallest particle, each tiny part, completely insignificant on their own, doing whatever is there meant to do, meshing together, gnashing at each other, all part of a cosmic machine. The machine aspect was, at some point, likely simply a metaphor, an idea. But as I'm sure you know, ideas are powerful. They make things from nothing, or change things already there. And with the small spark of the divine, a symbol becomes real. Have a planet with as much life as there is there, you generate a lot of ideas. And you may ask me, why is it called the Broken God? There are a few possible answers, something as simple as translation issues. Reinterpretation is made physical by the devout. Is broken simply a poor translation of some more nuanced word? Was God a being that broke into Big Bang? If so, why did it break? And what will happen if it's repaired? I can answer none of the questions saved the last, but you already know the answer. Whatever God once was doesn't matter ultimately. What matters to you is that it must remain as it is, broken. God knows that. The more powerful parts, the mechanical components, the more conventional sects may label as holy. They know they are not meant to be one solid thing. And even when forced together, a foreign force driving them, they know what they really are. Bits of the monster will work to destroy itself, deploy smaller entities to do the job. The GOC didn't kill it. They took the gun from its own hand and claimed credit when they pulled the trigger. The problem is that humans are too small a part of God to remember. Remember what it was like before, and so those like Bumaro will invent new ways to push us toward a singularity. Because that's what will happen. Did you see the underside of the destroyer? It was damaged even before the encounter in 43, and if you look very closely, you might have seen the scars were getting closer and closer to the power core. It even managed to damage whatever lets it slip between the layers of reality this time. Eventually, the monster will win. It will destroy the destroyer, devour it, and with this power consume everything. And I mean everything. God will return to being one gestalt being, a singularity, and then break, only this time it may have some outside force within it. The rust of the factory, the blood of a devite king, the fittest, wondertainment, some random person on the street with enough spark in them to be a reality bender. They will have a hand in remaking the universe, and close the secondary loop of all this. No, that doesn't concern me. It's an eventuality. It's meant to happen. Who's to say it hasn't already happened, and your people were the winner? Maybe humanity itself was the winner, but that doesn't mean I'd be against putting it off, allowing the primary loop to continue. Yes, it's possible. I know you couldn't damage the monster last time, and that the destroyer may not be able to repair itself by the time it is needed. But who's to say you can't aid it, or mimic those who will seek to rebuild God and acquire outside help? Working together, nothing is impossible. Apart we are broken, but united we are God.


Hi, I'm Dr. Olyth Selvan, Consulant Heptologist and Chairman Division of Liver Transplantation, Manipal Hospitals, Bangalore. There are no evident symptoms you can get from fatty liver disease. You might be overweight. The symptoms of liver failure occurs quite late in the disease process. So having a fatty liver alone would not produce any symptoms or signs and that can be diagnosed only probably by routine health checkup or when you get blood tests or scans done for some other purposes.


So today I'm going to be talking about using Galaxy file source plugins to work with remote data in Galaxy The slides are available here Let's definitely broken into infrastructure and applications to motivate this work Let's talk a little bit about getting data into Galaxy So in recent years the user experience around uploading that data into Galaxy has gotten a lot better Web browser technology has limited a lot of limitations that play us in the past And we've architected the Alexi's back end to handle large uploads with less configuration pain and the front end To deal with large numbers of uploads better Tools like collections rules and upload or UI improvements But upload is still limited the files need to be on the researchers machine or available via public HTTP Sites and the UI and robustness in the web browser will never be able to compete with FTP or file managers, etc So FTP upload and library directory uploads are still more usable and robust at scale For getting data into Galaxy. Unfortunately, these two mechanisms are not very general configuring Galaxy to talk to an FTP server as a variety of options Using the API is very different than other uploads And the very different user experience than using library uploads And these limitations and differences are entirely historical artifacts about how these systems were developed in the narrow use cases They were trying to solve none of the differences are Complexities are reflected reflect useful differentiation that admins users or developers would want One case where this is not true is the remote files API So there's an API for like listing files and it can list files in library import directories or FTP directories and And so while the upload is still sort of bespoke at every level and different This is a nice piece of technology that really makes it clear that these are essentially the same thing could be easily generalized So the key realization to this work was noting that if Galaxy can sort of seamlessly upload HTTP or file prefixes Why can't it also upload? FTP, you know Galaxy specialized Galaxy FTP or Galaxy import directory URIs and Navigate them the same way so much like there was a remote files API The piece of code for streaming data URIs I was synchronized across upload mechanisms And so it was right for generalization So what we did is we added a pluggable system So that admins configure different URIs games for browsing and resolving files And this was 988 After this was uploaded, I mean after this was merged You know both the remote files API and then tools including the upload tools could treat these URIs uniformly So GX FTP or these GX imports or even custom plugins could all sort of be treated as simple URIs and Uploaded and browsed the same way in the API So You know the awesome upshot of merging these code paths is that we could implement real plugins And so we added this plugin file configuration file config file sources com.yaml And then here's like an example We we have a Dropbox demo demonstration plugin For the labs Dropbox files You know documentation that appears in the UI for the user and access token that the whole lab will sort of share and Then now if this file is configured with this, you know these everything that's GX files lab Dropbox as ID Can be browsed and uploaded as URIs and then we also added an upload dialog that can browse the Dropbox files This configuration file is templatized so it can access user preferences. So in this case You could set up a user preference to read this this access token on a per user basis So if I have this as my Dropbox and I I can configure in the user preferences my API Accessed token Then in the upload dialog instead of choose FTP files, I don't have choose remote files. It's a generalization And along with my FTP directory, there's also the Dropbox directory and I can dig in and see those Dropbox files now These are the FTP files and the same in for the same instance and you can sort of see the user interfaces are identical for navigating in dealing with these That's great and in a question that might pop up is what's the difference between These file source plugins and object stores and it really comes down to object stores providing data sets not files So the the files are sort of organized logically by galaxy in a very specific way around the concept of a data set where a file source is Providing a description of files and directories as we sort of typically think of them And they're meant to be browsed in a hierarchical fashion There's also no concept of like extra files and things that would be in a galaxy object store Also object stores are assumed to be persistent where file sources don't need to make that same assumption We at this point have a bunch of plugins for the plug-in infrastructure they sort of all descend from the base file source class and galaxy file sources we've got the A pause experience that includes the sort of galaxy fdp and and upload directories We've got a specialized SF3 FS plug-in and then we got a bunch of plug-ins based on pie file system, too Including the drop box plug-in that we've seen on the anvil one that will be demoed later on and many others pie file system, too is Is an exciting project that provides a sort of common? layer our common file system extraction for Python and We've added infrastructure for rapidly adapting pie file system to plug-ins to galaxy file source plug-ins Pie file system to provides numerous backends And if you'd like to integrate galaxy with some custom data source or layer implementing it as a pie file system to plug-in Means that you can just need a small wrapper around that pie file system to plug-in to write something That's very general but still useful inside of galaxy And so this is what we did for for instance our anvil plug-in that we'll see later on After merging the real link URI PRs, we immediately started working on additional functionality For years, we've talked about being able to write like History exports to the FTP directory because that's so much, you know More robust for downloading for galaxy for galaxy users And so what we did with our next big iteration on this functionality is formalize the interaction with tools allow Plug-in sources to be marked as writable And Implement that ability to write to FTP directories. We've been included some example tools That shorter show, you know, how to how to load up the file source configuration file and an accessing interface from inside of a tool and then how to You know get the directory as a as a tool parameter and how to write the file source configuration As a config file for the tools With that infrastructure in place then we were we were ready to sort of revise the history import user Revise the user experience around history import and export, you know, so we significantly overhauled this At the end of 2020 Luke's demo at the end of the talk will show off this but some key points are histories can now be written to galaxy's FTP directory So this was been long discussed and and desired feature Before only this link option was available Likewise you can import from FTP directory or any any remote file source any any sort of file source plug-in This this rewrite process had a bunch of other goodies involved we migrated everything to view JS We provided actual feedback on what's going on in real error messages And the whole you user interface even for the old link-based approaches to history import and export are much more robust now and much more clear Additionally the EU and David implemented Support for securing file source plugins Yeah And there's very appreciated Next skipping the applications beyond of course quickly turn this fun infrastructure into really nice practical way to access large amounts of public data He added a public FTP plug-in and a vastly more stable S3 plug-in and This is just one page of the data sources that are browsable from use galaxy EU as of today a Bunch of these data sources are Amazon open data sources These data sources are hosted for free on Amazon S3 and they include the important resource such as a COVID-19 data lake Here we can see sort of navigating into the data lake additional bio related resources Include genome at least in code a thousand genomes genome arc Amazon has made a bunch of various client models and observational data available All that's linked to you on the EU and then a bunch of public FTP servers including Ebi and TBI ensemble are available for browsing and importing as well as a few COVID-19 FTP resources Next up we're going to see a demo on anvil done by Luke and demonstrating the anvil plug-in Here we have an anvil workspace If we select the data tab, we can see data that we've selected previously for inclusion in a table section We have a BigQuery table, which is a big query that we've previously performed Here we have a DIRS or data repository service URI, which points to a Google bucket file Here's a cohort which represents a BigQuery query to be performed, but it's not yet and We have other tables that can contain data as we see fit Here's one such table that contains GS URIs all of these files live on Google buckets Here is a much bigger table Similarly structured we can also have reference data, which is again similarly structured But this is a bit less relevant for Galaxy since it often has reference data bundled Here we can see our personal data These are arbitrary key value pairs that we've specified, which can have DIRS URIs or GS URIs or any such thing that we'd like And here are some of our personal files, which include any Jupyter notebooks we might have made and a text file that I added Normally to launch Galaxy you would select notebooks and create a cloud environment for Galaxy But you can also run the anvil file system plug-in locally as we are here in Galaxy 2105 So we have a fresh history ready to go And we want to get some data in it, so we load our own data Choose remote files And note anvil is an option The top level directories are the same as in the data tab In the tables we see the same tables represented as folders The contents of the folders will be a TSV that represents these tables Literally, let's grab this one And then whatever files might be referred to by some of the entries in the TSV Note here that the DIRS URI has been resolved to the actual file it is and not just a UUID If we look at that very large participant set We can see that it has several kinds of files Lots of files Fortunately we can narrow it down, so Let's look for some cram indices As they're relatively small and let's grab one of those We can look at some of our personal data Note in the arbitrary key value pairs the referred to files are an option in addition to just that TSV And here's the text file Let's grab all of that And in normal galaxy flow Hit start which will create an upload job Ta-da The big query was performed Google buckets were grabbed And all the contents are as we expect but This is a workflow application So let's run some tools on this data We can select a simple tool cut to Remove In excise one column From our workspace that TSV Is it eliminated by commas? No We submit this job It is executed And lo and behold success We have our single column requested Now that we've done that We have the option to save our history To be restored later or shared with colleagues We do that by selecting export history to file And choosing A remote file The only place on anvil that is actually an uploadable directory And not just a table of some sort Is files So we select that Which represents our workspaces Google bucket We select the name My cool history And we export it Under the hood galaxy will compress All of these files include Pertinent metadata And then push it to our selected location Our personal google bucket Success We can see the success in the data tabs In our files as we looked at previously Great So we can use the same plugin To pull this history We import from file Choose a remote file The one we just created And let galaxy work its magic Great success But did it really work? Let's have a look Here we have the same files as we did before At the same size Same content The anvil file system plugin can be found on pypy The python package index And the source code can be seen on the anvil project organization And with that I'd like to thank the whole galaxy community for building awesome data innovations. Thanks much


everyone welcome back to another video if you're new here my name is Carol do not forget to like comment subscribe and a good morning we just got out of our workout felt so good I go to cycle bar and

because I love putting the girls on everything it's crazy I don't know what's going on today in here now this is freezing now we just what the hell okay so I'm just finishing these edits on this video it's the freezing at the same part oh hell no what is going on with my computer it's not my computer it's YouTube it's going slow what is happening right now they don't really tell you all about the bat behind the scenes of making a YouTube video make it in live like why is this freezing right now like I'm trying to upload this video right and you have to like submit an ad review and I'm clicking the normal oh maybe it might be my computer it's not scrolling down girl what is going on that painting but in our thought literally this is gonna piss me off let me go ahead and send over my illicit you know this is literally my life like I this is literally my mornings all I do is go workout and workout eat repeat workout workout eat repeat hey hey workout workout workout eat repeat eat repeat but I love it though it just helps me feel so much more put together productive even though I haven't took a shower yet with my stankiness I don't think I'm lying cuz I took a shower last night let me sound liney all before y'all take it today I'm really just rambling right now and then today I have to get ready to post some Instagram stories so yeah I'll take y'all on that process I guess but it's really self-explanatory nothing makes y'all done it that's how you rock it injection so that's what we're about to do today and y'all y'all this cheek is so big I'm about to get I didn't I don't think I ever talked about cheek filler but I had a cheek filler previously like two years ago and y'all can see like this is sticking out don't do without a girl don't be going all crazy with these injections or you can come get right by but yeah so she's gonna dissolve my cheek so it can be softer so it can come down and be softer like this side this vibration it just kind of helps distract my god please don't mind these lashes y'all this my first time meeting her this is so disgusting not really big yeah I can ice it yeah you can even like ice roll it so that it goes down faster with a little baby for the next 24 hours because I just put fluid on that side okay that's what the dissolver is it's liquid but then your body reabsorbs it so it will go down okay alright so we're gonna try to lift this side like I was telling you if this is just a structural asymmetry then there's not a whole lot that the floor is gonna do but we'll just give it a try and see if it ends up lifting okay it feels like they already know what they're doing and I think this is your anatomy of your lip kind of curls down right there your lips look like before you ever had them done oh nothing I didn't have no time for two weeks okay no straws for a week no straws okay thank you so yes so in the DM should be the screenshot of your comment of the answer and then also your cash app in the DM as well

from the last video so if you did not watch the last videos my I'm gonna be asking questions from every single video for you to be able to win something so make sure you tune into the blogmas vlogs but the question is from the last vlog is going to be as y'all can see so as you can see from the previous clips I just came from getting my lips touched up and my cheek dissolved I got my cheeks done like a long time ago and it was probably like the worst thing I could have ever done to my face literally don't like I'm literally saying this because I mean try it out or whatever for yours but my face is just too wide for that and so explain that the cheek filler a little bit more I got cheek filler from a long time ago and it just did not dissolve and this was two years ago when I lived back in Wisconsin so yeah it has nothing to do with anybody just my face anatomy just isn't aligned with that just because my cheeks are already big so it expanded one side of my face even more and I noticed this up until recently I just noticed my face was looking a little droopy and yeah I just wanted to find an expert out here you already know I go to new image works in Chicago really love them but I just wanted somebody that was here in a bit little in Atlanta and I went to balance my beta I'm very transparent about everything that I get so yeah and she's a very lovely girl really like her and she really examined my face on what she thought it was and I am very grateful for her because my face looks amazing right now and yeah I just had to get that out of my face because what works for everybody else this doesn't work for me because my face anatomy is just too wide so yes and I don't know why this blurry hold on why are my batteries dying but yeah like I was saying um what may work for other people okay like but yeah like I was saying what works for other people may not work for you like I just can't get certain things on my face cuz my facial features are just very strong and itches girl I just want a soft delicate subtle useful face and use my bare device by Pharrell for enhancements on my face not even like enhancements just to really give me that chisel and tight skin and I really do use it regularly and yeah I really think it's made a huge difference in my face and my skin so but I don't know why this is blurry but yeah anyways so I'm just sitting here looking at the view y'all I've never really like stood by my window so close and just really like took a second to like really like wow like I really worked hard I was really just standing here while changing my battery and it just gave me the chills and it's just like wow it's crazy just overlooking the city while all the cars are going the sun is setting look at that sunset so nice and then look at the city yeah this is really just gonna be a realistic day in the life because y'all sometimes honestly I don't change my workout close until I'm done with my housework it's no point of getting in a shower even though it is bad for you I don't like feeling dirty but I I don't like feeling dirty at all don't I just don't like it but also I sweat when I I sweat when I clean so it's just like what's the point but yeah like realistically sometimes I may come home and you know I have to do work right after our workout and I have to just push it out and I just have to get things done and I have to put aside what I really want to do obviously y'all like what the fuck you can happen to shower real quick but sometimes I just be having to like do things that are on my mind you know what I'm saying but we also have a self-care night for sure tonight cuz I definitely deserve it cuz I've been moving and grooving all day and this stuff happens every once in a while don't think that I'm just out here in my sweaty workout pants but yes I have to make this video live it's 5 59 and I like to make my videos live around six o'clock so in our beauty room is clean it's clean it's clean it's clean so I'm about to make this video live and I'm gonna put it on my Instagram story and I know a lot of people ask like how do you like put the shadow thing on the picture on Instagram you just go like this you just click the color and then I'm pretty sure people know how to do this so you click on these three little dots and you click draw and then you want to go to the third one which is that marker and then you just choose your color and then it's faint and then we're gonna do a link and then we paste the link right there and I like to say no no my nails are so cute he literally did that for show so I'm also do a bedroom refresh right now before I happen to shower I like to change out my sheets every couple months and if you aren't new you already know I get my sheets from Brooklyn I just ordered some new ones because they are having their holiday sale right now and you can get 15% off on all Brooklyn items so I definitely had to read up I get the duvet cover I get the pillowcases and then also the core sheets that which comes with one flat sheet one fitted sheet two pillowcases and I just like to get two extra ones obviously I have a whole bunch of pillows on my bed and then I had to read up on this y'all this smells so early this year Brooklyn and just came out with candles and this is literally my favorite one it has my house smelling so good it's like a broody musk it has notes of wild berry violet and the base is musk it smells so good you have to try it for yourself this candle is up to 60 hours of burning time 60 hours but I've been burning my candles down so I have to definitely read up on this because this one is literally my favorite out of all the candles they have on their website this one is my top one and also they do have room sense as well but this one does not come in that so I had to get the candle this is the season of giving so make sure you take advantage of the holiday sale because I started off with the luxe hardcore bundle so if you know somebody who needs new bed sheets or you need to get this in Brooklyn sheets okay they're going to thank you they get softer over time they are just the best sheets to sleep in get somebody it's how a roll get yourself treat yourself treat yourself you deserve it as well too and there is no discount code needed all you need to do is click my link and it'll be applied at checkout so thank you so much Brooklyn and for sponsoring this video love Brooklyn and so we are just going to be getting to changing on my sheets and getting a shower because a baby what has today been okay I'm ready to relax and snuggle up so yeah I'm gonna go sushi cuz McKay look on me she's like I'm hungry and I said I'm hungry too and today is Jeremiah's birthday but I believe he has plans cuz the plans we were supposed to do are gonna be on the weekend but I still wanted to like eat with him if he didn't have plans and I haven't had sushi in a minute I've been craving and MF sushi hits and also if you know you know you need to get up on this this fancy fancy and by the way this is a Brooklyn and towel by the way it's so soft literally use them all the time my bath towels are so good but yeah I'm just trying to hurry up and I just like to moisturize my skin like literally after I get off the shower I used to be like a skincare girl first and then lotion up but after you know you get older you learn a little damn skin locks in a little moisture and also I really like the slather by Topicals I mix the venti with the um so a lather oh he just texted me what up what up what up guys I just got out the shower I'm literally gonna throw clothes on I'm done you're further than me and I gotta do is throw my clothes on you know what I've thought about do you put sunscreen on when you go to sleep because there still are you leak rays obviously in the lights obviously I'm going just like really yeah so I just threw this on cute looking refreshed got these parachute pants on from Zora Zora and I've never this my first designer bag I'm never wear it but I'm about to wear it she's calling my name okay and we're about to go I'm not taking over main character vibes I don't feel like driving I've been hustling bustling all day in look at my room she's refreshed she's cute she's done up and then we got the candle going so make sure y'all check out Brooklyn's candles how they sell for everything 15% so I like to at least keep one light on when I leave the house because anyways so I just got back home and I put my pajamas on that I wore last night just because these are my favorite and y'all sushi did not happen the kitchen was closed came back home so I have to take my vitamins and obviously I told y'all today that I did not eat so and it's a very disappointing I hate when I have a lot to do and I don't get a chance to eat cuz it knocks off my fast and I can't do that cuz I don't want to eat after eight o'clock but today we gonna make an exception but any no we can't have this happening so I just made me some noodles and I'm probably not even gonna eat all of these y'all cuz these are spicy I got these from H Mart these are what they're called these are next level so the ones that you know during that challenge or whatever people were doing on YouTube I'm pretty sure those are hotter I think those are hotter than this they're spicy but last time I didn't what's she called I didn't have that much water again so maybe that might make a difference but this is the pack and then like this it's another pack of something to be my favorite it's gonna for the day literally and this is my little vitamin holder so cute has all my vitamins in it all my vitamins for the day so I'm gonna go eat these in my bed oh my god it's gonna be so good feels so good to lay down this life right here me in a ramen noodles watching


Navy Entertainment and Armed Forces Entertainment have brought the world-famous Harlem Globetrotters to fleet activity Sausagebow for an explosive, laugh-out-loud night of high-flying fun. The Globetrotters are touring U.S. military bases in Japan and Guam as part of their annual trip around the world to raise morale for U.S. service members. It's an honor to just give them the two hours. That's to give them a little excitement. That's a little fun so they can take their mind off what's really going on behind scenes. So to me it feels great.  We give a little portion back because they do so much. Petty Officer Jeremy Graham, fleet activities Sausagebow Japan.


ManToyota in Prestonsburg is offering 0.9% financing on the 2018 Camry. The Toyota Camry offers performance and safety with breakthrough design and sporty styling. At ManToyota, it's affordable. Man, what a deal. With your EKB News Brief, I'm Ralph Davis. Yesterday, the Johnson County Sheriff's Office was on the hunt for drug suspects once again. Deputies began a roundup of seven people recently indicted on drug trafficking charges. Three of those suspects were located and arrested. They include Charles Young, Christopher Adkins, and Randy Staniford. Deputies are continuing to search for Justin Litchfield, Gordon Tim Williamson, Paul Daniel, and Willa Tackett. Anyone with information about their whereabouts is urged to contact the Johnson County Sheriff's Office. A bill under consideration by the Kentucky General Assembly would curtail the ability of underage residents to get married. Under current law, 16 and 17-year-olds can get married with their parents' permission. District judges can also approve the marriage of children under 16 if the girl is pregnant. Senate Bill 48 would do away with that. Under the bill, no one under the age of 17 would be allowed to get married. In addition, a district judge would have to approve the marriage of any 17-year-old. Reporting for EKB News, I'm Ralph Davis.
