2021 marks the 10th anniversary of American Horror Story and to celebrate I thought I'd break down some of my favorite facts about the show but before I get into that I would just like to say that this video was made possible thanks to the support of my channel members and if you would like to become a channel member there is a join button below this video and you can join for as little as 99 cents a month and as a member you will receive early access to every video as well as exclusive videos every month and to those of you who are my channel members I just once again would like to give a very special thank you it really does help me out a lot also spoiler alert for American Horror Story as a whole so if you're not familiar with every season and you want to watch them spoiler free this may not be the video for you or go ahead and proceed with caution but with that being said let's just jump in with fact number one Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk began conceptualizing the series before their fox glee began production back in 2009 they wanted to tap into their shared love of the horror genre as well as work on something much darker than glee Murphy also cited the abc gothic soap opera entitled dark shadows that aired in the 60s as an inspiration for the tone of murder house other inspirations included rosemary's baby don't look now amityville horror and the shining once the pilot began filming in 2011 the location of the harman's home of horrors was chosen as a collegiate gothic style home in los angeles that was built in 1908 way back in the history of the house it was used as a residence hall and an administration building of a convent and more recently it appeared in the season four halloween episode of buffy the vampire slayer season one is synonymous with the murder house itself but the actual house in la was only used in the season's pilot and exterior shots with the rest of the episodes being shot on a sound stage that recreated the interior of the actual home the first season marked the first iteration of the now iconic title sequence which features clues regarding several plot points in the season the hole in the floor may represent the hiding spot of the infantata as well as the spot where violet harman's corpse was left to decompose the medical utensils and fetuses in jars represent the houses passed with charles mt gummary as well as bloody hedge clippers which may be more specifically referring to the black dahlia and the three skeletons that are seen could represent the three harman's that did not make it out of the house alive murder house has a handful of references to future seasons one being the roanoke colony which is mentioned by billy dean howard this obviously foreshadowed season six's roanoke but billy dean also mentions the antichrist bringing the end of times which is later explored in season eight's apocalypse in early development for season two ryan murphy and brad falchuk threw around the idea of setting it in a prison but after fox debuted their own show about alcatraz ryan and brad scrapped this concept and instead landed on the season taking place at an asylum for the criminally insane after his appearance in murder house modern family star eric stone street was cast for a role in asylum he was reported to be playing a serial killer who shares scenes with lana winters but the scenes were cut from the final season similarly actor chris zealka was initially cast to play a deaf character at bryer cliff however the actor was dismissed from the role after he refused to shave his head for his two episode arc the role was written out of the entire season as a result of this the iconic exterior for bryer cliff asylum is actually the orange county courthouse in california while the interior was painstakingly created by the show's set designers with the help from 50 to 60 carpenters at fox studios in los angeles like murder house asylums opening credits also have many hints regarding the season's plot the bloody gloves handling organs refer to bloody face a doctor suffocating a patient represents dr ardent's killing and reviving of his own patients and shots of a woman walking backwards upstairs and a demented statue of the virgin mary represent sister mary unis's possession by the devil the third season swapped filming locations from los angeles to new orleans louisiana making coven one of three seasons to not be filmed entirely in california along with season four's freak show and the upcoming tenth season which will still be primarily shot in california with some scenes shot on location in province town massachusetts coven introduced many iconic characters into the world of american horror story including frances conroy's instantly recognizable myrtle snow many attribute myrtle's iconic look to grace connington the creative director of vogue coven's title sequence is also packed with references to the season itself this shot of a girl surrounded by floating witches seems to represent zoe benson's arrival at robert chose and the image of santum huerte also known as the lady of the seven powers appears behind sarah paulson's name foreshadowing cordelia's destiny to master the seven wonders and become the next supreme and similarly lily rave's name is the only one to disintegrate foreshadowing misty day's death freak show marks the first of many times that an american horror story character makes an appearance in multiple seasons with pepper from asylum returning later in the season we get the return of sister mary unis from asylum as well due to the difficulty of filming the conjoined characters of bet and dot each scene with them in it reportedly took up to 10 to 15 hours to shoot the character was achieved by sarah paulson acting with a prosthetic second head then acting alongside pre-taped lines from her twin jessica lang regards her freak show character elsa mars as her favorite character she has played on the show and she considers freak show her favorite season before the fifth instalments theme was announced fx chief john land graff stated that the season would mark a huge reinvention for the show and when the theme was announced in february of 2015 the newest addition to the cast was revealed as none other than lady gaga in her first and only main role in a television show one of the main inspirations for the hotel cortez is the sassel hotel in los angeles the hotel and its real life counterpart interestingly tie in some threads from other seasons of american horror story for instance richard ramirez visits the hotel cortez in the fourth episode and the fictional character of the real life night stalker reappears in american horror story 1984 elizabeth short also known as the black dollia is involved in the haunting past of season one's murder house and the real life elizabeth short was allegedly seen at the sassel hotel just days before her death emma roberts was initially supposed to make her third appearance on american horror story for a guest role in hotel in connection to james patrick march towards the end of the season however her role was scrapped after she had scheduling conflicts with the filming of billionaire boys club hotel marked the last season with michael goy as director of photography and consequently hotel is the final season to be shot on film as everything moved to digital with ron oak ron oak is the only season to not feature an opening title sequence due to the attempt to make the season feel like a show within the show the first five episodes act as episodes of the fictional docu series my ron oak nightmare and the latter five act as episodes of a deadly reality show called return to ron oak three days in hell colt's title sequence features many representations of events that happened in the season with the b imagery representing the colt itself as well as men in hazmat suits carrying a coffin which could be references both to the gas that was dispersed in front of ali's home as well as the colt's murder of the couple by trapping them in coffins the dead dog could represent the colt's murder of mr guinea or the colt's planting of dead birds on ali's lawn despite vowing that her days on a hs were over jessica ling returned to the series in apocalypse to reprise her role of constance langdon in episode six returned to murderhouse and episode ten apocalypse then who are you i'm constance langdon and this is my f***ing 1984 marks the first season without evan peters or sarah poulsen however a hs alums emma roberts codie fern john carroll lynch and leslie grossman all returned as main cast members and finne wittrock leslie jordan dylan mcdermott and lily rabe also returned as guest stars or recurring characters 1984 marks the final season that aired in the decade that the show started with the first season beginning in 2011 american horror story is the longest running fx series that is still going well there you have it those are some of my favorite facts about american horror story feel free to share any of your favorite facts in the comments below if i missed any of your favorites like this video if you liked it and maybe we'll do another round of american horror story trivia before season 10 premieres later this year but thank you guys so much for watching and i'll see you next time


Mike, you're now here at the buy. How much of this week do you spend on self-scouting to try to tweak and improve the offense to get games started a little better, a little faster? I mean, we're going to do a lot of things, Theresa. The whole goal is to try to improve mentally, get as physically healthy as we can, try to get our players to understand each and every play, the details of it. First, whatever they're running offensively or defensively are on special teams, and that'll be the key to try to improve. Which energy does it bring to a team when a quarterback can rattle off some runs like Ryan did yesterday? The one special the recount carries upon for the first down there? Again, you guys have heard me talk about defensively being able to defend the quarterback as he runs or extends plays. And whether it's to throw the football down the field or to gain yards when guys are turning and running in man coverage, it's deflating. You don't necessarily practice that. I mean, there's rush lanes. And when those guys get covered up or there's areas and spaces and guys turn and run, and especially in long-yarded situations or in two-minute drills. So there's design quarterback runs and there's ones where they extend the play. And I think the ones you can practice are the ones that are designed. And the ones that are hard are the ones that quarterbacks in this league or in any league college extend plays with their feet. And then certainly his ability, Ryan's ability to be physical, to get the first down and to get the two-point conversion was really cool to see. Do you earn a little credit or respect from guys when you're willing to fight through some of that stuff? As a quarterback, I'm not going to speak on what kind of respect quarterbacks get for not having played the position. I would say that when I would watch quarterbacks or have a quarterback that did those things, that I probably respected them. I think that they have to be smart in this league. I think the way they lead, the way they try to prepare the team and try to get guys on the same page is another way that they earn respect throughout the week and the way they play on Sundays for the course of 60 minutes and good times and bad times, good plays, bad plays. They're the ones that have to lead the offense. And I think, in turn, might rally the team. With those runs, with the record you guys have had since he's taken over with 10 touchdowns and 10 trips to the red zone. See, take it on the mantle as well as you could have ever expected. I think, Ryan, it's a unique situation. I was very aware of that, I think, coming in, having been a starter in this league, coming here, learning in offense to try to invest as much as he could to be ready for the opportunity. And he was. It's a fine line. I think that there were things that he probably wanted to say or do as a backup that he had normally done as a starter, respect to the situation. He probably didn't. And I think now that where he's at starting for us, it's been everything that we'd hoped for, having him coming in to be ready to go to assume that role. And we have to continue to do those things. We have to continue to work with receivers and linemen and understand where we're going to be in the pocket, where receivers, where we want guys when they're man coverage, zone coverage. But getting down in the red zone, there's been a lot of reps at a lot of these plays. And our players are confident and comfortable in what we're doing. And when you can run it in, it makes it a little easier. So again, that's been a key for us to be able to score when we get down there and not kick field goals. They attempted five yesterday. And again, thank God that we were able to keep them to field goals in those situations. Is there anything about this game that you think lends to the success in the red zone that you've had, whether it's command or just a personnel anything that lends to why you guys have been so successful with? I think that we've put a lot of time into it. We put a lot of work into it. It's a focal point. Going back to April and training camp, got a lot of reps at it on Friday. Hopefully we can get down there more and continue to score. But that's been something that's been real positive for us. When Ryan first got pecking order always pretty clear still in your mind when you came in. It was obviously going to be the two. I think that that's what the plan was. I think that that's just what we thought as coaches and John and I and everybody else that this was going to be a guy that if things happened or something happened that he could win us football games. And we've talked about that in the past. The opportunity presented itself to Ryan. When Ryan probably he probably figures he's only got so many more chances at it.  But you only get so many opportunities to go out there. And it's good to see him take advantage of what now is an opportunity for him. What went into the decision to go on the fourth and 17 near the end? Did you think about finding the thought process there? Again, the decisions that we try to make where I think that if it was outside of two minutes, you probably would have had a little bit more decision. The field goal, if they would have made it, would have kept it a one-scored game. The three time outs, really that was the fact that the field goal would have kept it a one-score game. Really that's probably a different story if stopping them in three plays in a field goal makes it a two-possession game in that field position. You've got to bang it out of there and hope that somehow you get the ball back with a minute 20 and no time outs. And the ability still to win with a touchdown. So I think that that's all it really was, was where are we at on the field? I guess we're just kind of hoping for a huge play there, penalty somewhere down the field, and then holding them to just the field goal. And our guys, I think, at the field goal block unit has put some pressure on teams lately. And I think they snapped it quicker than they probably had wanted to. And it forced them into a mistake. And we blocked an extra point last week. Dane and Josh are excited about that unit and their role on that unit. On the missed extra point, Isaiah Mack attacks the backside guard, shows up, gets penetration. The guy kind of throws them into the backfield. I don't know if Butker saw them, but I know that he was playing with the type of effort that we expect. And it was what some people would consider a meaningless extra point. But I thought that there was great effort there, and that unit's been good for us. And what's the thinking on the squid pack instead of the goal? I think that we're trying to get it down there, probably a little farther. Seeing where some of the kicks had landed into the wind in that situation, you want it to be down there a little further. We weren't going to be able to kick a touchback. And just want to kick it down there a little further, kick it a little harder. Is the wind all that was working against Ryan in terms of touchback? Or does he not have enough leg right now? No, I think that the wind was a large factor.  And I think if you look coming the other way, we were able to put them a little deeper into the end zone and certainly so with their kicker. But I just got to try to get it down there and kick it a little harder down there. I know you talked about the PI calls being cut over. I heard that you think about challenging the one on AJ, but AJ on the fourth and 17 after seeing the unit. Under two. Under two, Jimmy. It's under two, it's on them.  After watching it, do you think they don't matter whether they're going to let them play under two minutes and let the guy up? I don't know. Not going to matter. So again, you've got to follow up to that one. I asked the guy next to me, do you see anything? Not from here. Sorry, it's only 60 feet. Maybe we should expect that they could see a little bit more than 20 yards. It seems as much as the two-man defensive line that you played yesterday, and what's the sort of key to making that alignment work? I'm sorry, which person? The two-man defensive front. Is that as much as you've done of that in a game? You mean just with the defensive linemen, the tackles, and not the, yeah. I mean, it was just how we wanted to match up against their 11 and 12 personnel defenses. And now as far as however we wanted to treat Kelsey, if you treat them as a receiver, more of a receiving tight end, I guess it just allows you, when you play a four-down front, because I would consider that a four-down front and just lump all the four defensive linemen together. It just brings you an extra DB into the game from where our base stuff was. Every week you kind of decide, I'm sorry, every week you kind of go in there, and we decide how we're going to treat this tight end based on his ability, his skill set. And do you look at it more as a receiving tight end, or would you look at it more as a blocking tight end? And that's how we make the decision. Sorry, John. Sorry. What was David Long in your mind doing so well yesterday? I think eight tackles and only 20 snaps would come later that production. He's an instinctive player, and there's a lot of stuff that we got to continue to coach on him and improve, but he has shown, since he's gotten here, that he is an instinctive player, that he makes tackles, that he gets around the football, got an opportunity to play and showed up, got the ball out. So the thing, I appreciate, Dave, I mean, you coach him hard. You can get on him and coach him hard. He knows when he's out on the field that he's going to go play. And he's just a young instinctive player that has been improving through the course of the season and on the show team. Gives us a great look over there, him and Nigel Harris. And we've talked to him. We coach him. We watch those plays with him. That's their opportunity to improve, to get a lot of reps just at the run in a play-action game and diagnosing plays. There's a card, but we try to win in possible. Me and Luke and Stecco and whoever's operating that show team is to try to say, hey, this is our call. Just run it like that unless they need a specific look. So that's where they get a lot of their work and improvement. We've had some conversations about passing numbers, me pushing you like, hey, what if you threw for 300? What if you threw for 400 once just for the heck of it? And you're kind of saying, it's not all it's cracked up to be. Is yesterday kind of an example of that in the homes? That's the most yards anybody's ever thrown for in that building and it turned out not to be all it's cracked up to be. It's just what you have to do every week, I think, to win the game. And again, everybody understands, starting with me and the team, that that's not where you want to play that team. You don't want to sit there and trade touchdowns with them and make it a 55-51 game. You go back and look at the games that chief's team has lost. The other team was running the ball 40 times, controlling it for 38 or 40 minutes. And so when you try to come up with those keys and talk to the players about the plan, ending drives on third down defensively, sometimes it doesn't go that way. And we've always said, hey, we all want to start fast, Teresa. But when we don't, we don't quit and walk into the tunnel. We got to find ways to win. So the biggest thing was that when they did have success moving the football, and I think the five field goal attempts was a huge part of keeping that thing close and giving us a chance at the end of the game. So when we had to get some stops, we did. And we can play better. There's a lot of things that we can do that we have to do and we must do to improve. But that was a huge emphasis to be able to force and to kick field goals. But what do you try to tell Kalu as he was running past you at the end of the game? Just a fantastic play. And I think that we'd have liked to have a little better. I know Joshua would have liked to have a little better on the pass that got down there. But you just always enjoy guys that take pride in making a play to help their team win. And Josh is primarily a special teams player for us and got some action on the punt team. We felt like his performance in Carolina warranted that we find a spot for him.  Helped us get a little faster on the punt team. We punted the ball great as usual. Brett did a fantastic job. It's huge key. 50-yard net punting to be able to eliminate hard men or hill if they got back there. And again, those guys that hopefully we're starting to build some confidence in a core group of special teams players. Dane, you can't help but notice him seven or eight yards in front of everybody on the kickoffs. His effort, he gets doubled every single play on kickoff and on punts. Milton had a huge tackle on a punt team. These are names that people don't always see because the TV cameras cut off every special teams play. I didn't ever say who makes a tackle. But those guys are starting to form a little core group in there. And in Batesy, it takes a ton of pride in everything that those guys do. You're not saying the same thing than falling on the sword. That's two weeks in a row you basically sacrificed a series to his penalties. You kind of said, you can't teach him not to raise his hands into somebody's face mask, but something clearly has to change there with his mentality and his ability to fall into these habits. Where do you go from here? I don't know. I've got a week to decide. Where do we go? Your TV show. Is there any way to explain just the number? I mean, a probable guy like that, just the sheer number of penalties that he's. You guys are going to be open locker room as soon as you guys stop asking me questions. Sure, I'll have plenty to say. So I don't know what to tell you. You talk about the confidence gained on the special teams.  Again, the more that you do something routinely, the guys start to build some confidence. We've got a lot of work in these situations. I thought Arthur gave the guys a heck of an opportunity. They were playing two-man, which allowed for the scramble, which allowed for the nod to perk. And then the middle field is wide open. And same thing to hump. So it was run, nod, nod, and great plays by the two slot guys. We know when they play that, that it's tough sledding for the guys on the outside. Safeties are high and wide. But we felt like we had a really good match up in there with FERC and who's done that. Same thing he did against the Jets last year. Same exact route, same exact coverage. And so then we flipped it over and got it to hump on the next play. How'd you think Adori held up yesterday with a pretty tough assignment? I think he finished. I think there were times where he competed. And we got to tackle better. We got to be more confident in our ability to tackle. And it's a great player you're playing against. Some technique issues that we'll continue to work on. But I felt like, especially down the field, he was competing and was competitive. And we'll need more of that every week. There's going to be good receivers and a good quarterback. You said you had a week to decide on a lot. Is there any recourse? No, I was joking. It was the first joke I could come up with. Like, I don't know what. I'm going to stand up here and talk about with penalties or with Taylor. We're not going to hide behind finishing. I stand in here without this podium. And I tell the team every week, if we're going to play full tilt to the tackle and we're going to finish longer than the guy with a ball, we can't use it as an excuse. And whether it's pushing a guy late or whether it's the quarterback, I can go back and vividly remember Harold and Atlanta, rushing like heck to try to get to the quarterback. He throws it. Harold hits him. And the officials saw that as unnecessary. He's going as hard as he can. So we showed him, coached him up, explained, yep, it's a fine line to go and play full tilt to the tackle and understand when you have to pull off. Jarrell plays as hard as anybody on our football team. I mean, he's going after Kyle Allen, and he slides. And unfortunately, Jarrell catches him with his knee in his back. And it's a penalty. It's forcible contact at a quarterback that's giving himself up. And I explained to him that we can't use that as an excuse by playing hard and just saying, well, I'm just playing hard. That would be no different than Taylor to say that I'm trying to finish. That's not what we coach. That's not what we teach. And we can't say that I was just trying to finish. And he knows that. And I know that. And it applies to everybody at every position. It's an offensive line. It would be finished in their guy, and then the whistle, and then hitting them later, doing something like that. I explained with the rushers, going as hard as they can. And the quarterback doesn't have the ball or gives himself up. So there's a lot of instances where players are confronted with that, playing with great effort and then having to have the composure to not do anything after that. And just go back to the next play. AJ ran over to Taylor after that. The bigger call kind of got in his face a little bit. Did you like seeing that? I love seeing when our players hold each other accountable. And I don't know what was said. But anytime our players trust each other enough to hold each other accountable, I think that that's a good thing. After a win against a quality opponent like Kansas City, what did you learn about your team yesterday? Well, I always think that we're gritty. We're tough. We need to play better. We need to execute better. But there is, I think, sometimes the grittier and grimeier it gets is kind of where we like it and where it should be. There's just every week, not every week. But when we win, sometimes one side helps the other side and somebody comes up with a huge play. And I wasn't too long ago. We were the offense this, the offense that. And we got in a ball back and they did some pretty good things. Do you think it's fair to ask where some of this has been? Some of what, the wins or the production? The big plays, the production, the result? Well, I think the plays at the end of the game were dictated by their coverage. I mean, they didn't play any snaps of too high safeties on first and 10. And so when we got the coverage, we took advantage of it. Again, we have to run more plays. We have to be better on third down. And it was, I would say that it probably wasn't easy to get Derek the number of carries he got yesterday based on where the game was going. I mean, we just didn't run enough plays. It goes back to that. We got to run more plays. We averaged more yards per play than the Kansas City Chiefs. So that would tell me that, again, you guys are the number experts, but we got to run more plays. We got to find ways to continue drives and sustain them. So we're going to get back to work and get rested mentally and physically and try to go win another game. You got Jarell Delaney, Corey, and J.I.L. Mess. I mean, how much of the ball would help when it's optimistic that you get all four of those guys back at some point in the not-so-distant future? I'm not sure what not-so-distant future means. I'm worried about today. So if you're asking me if they'll be back today, they won't be back today. Don't interrupt me, Paul. I would imagine that they could probably look to get back, hopefully, after the buy and do some things, and then we'll evaluate where they are. I know each and every one of them is working their tail off to get back out there to help the team. And they'll be working hard this week to recover.


From Soldiers Radio and Television, this is the Army Now. The 2012 Army Aviation Association of America Conference kicked off April 2nd in Nashville, Tennessee. Over 1,000 members from the Army Aviation Community and commercial aviation industry were present during the opening remarks. The commanding general of the U.S. Army Aviation Center of Excellence spoke about the challenges they face during this time of transition from an army at war to preparing for war. We're combat proven today, more so than ever since I've been in the Army. How do we preserve that? How do we preserve that fighting spirit, that fighting edge, what are the necessary things that we have to think about to make sure that we stay the organization that we are today? That's the Army Now from Soldiers Radio and Television.


Welcome to the first JP's product pick of the week of the year 2023. Welcome. Thanks everyone for stopping by. And by everybody, I mean all of you, anyone watching, but particularly if you want to be part of the chat, head on over to the YouTube chat or to our Discord server. If you want to join that, just head to adafrew.it slash discord and then look for the live broadcast chat channel. It looks like that right there. So hello, Starman and Kiyoshi and Todd Bot, C Grover, Gary Zee, I'm missing some other people. Jim Hendrickson, thanks everyone for stopping by and anyone else who joins up in the chat.  Thanks for stopping by all. Let's see. The next thing I want to do is I want to tell you where to go if you want to get this week's product pick of the week, if you want to get a jump start on it. You can head to this URL right here or if you are into QR codes, you can use that one right there. That'll take you to the product page and we, I'm going to go refresh mine right now, we should have, I believe it's a 50% off happening. Yes indeed, Max 10 per customer, I think we have a bunch of these stashed so we shouldn't run out too soon. Nevertheless, if you want to grab them, go ahead and do it. We don't need a coupon code or anything like that, they are just priced to sell. Before I say any more, what I'll do is have Lady Aida tell us all about this week's product pick. So please take it away, Lady Aida from the past. Okay, by request somebody emailed in and said, could you guys make some sort of like passive hub for STEMIQT that's very small, that's like the size of your standard STEMIQT size? And I'm like, yeah, that's a good idea. And so we made one. So this is a board that does pretty much exactly what it sounds like. There are vertical ports to make, you know, so there's, you can have more than two because usually they go at the sides. There's an on LED to tell you that it's powered, but basically all the SCL, SDAs, powers and grounds are connected together. So this doesn't do like, I squirts the address, renumbering or sharing.  Then this board will do it also has breakouts if you want to use it with a breadboard, but it's designed to be used solderless. And I can show real fast. This is the, this is just the demo again, you don't have to plug in five things, but ideally, you know, you would have your controller. And then now you can have five boards. You can see each one is getting power. And then this has a power LED as well. So you know that it's working just a handy, you know, a couple of bucks for the wiring simplicity. Some people were asking for it, it's got mounting holes.  So you see it, if you have like mounting holes in that location, this will fit just fine. Okay. Passive hub. Passive hub indeed. So this right here is the product pick of the week. Look at that little lovely QT hub right there, a little silk screen on the back. So that right there is my product pick of the week this week. It is the five port Stemma QT hub. It is a passive hub. It allows you to create a bunch of I squared C devices plugged into a single microcontroller board without needing to run from sensor to sensor to sensor and create a humongous chain of them, which is pretty darn cool. And that's about all it does. It doesn't do any of the matrix address stuff. It doesn't change addresses, nothing fancy like that for you.  And I want to show you, let me jump to my down shooter cam here again. I'm going to refocus it for a second. So I'll show you the kind of kind of situation you can run into here. So let me throw that on there for refocusing purposes. OK, so here we've got a microcontroller. It's a QT pie that has a little Stemma QT port on it. And let's say I've got stuff like a little display and a temperature sensor and a accelerometer and a distance sensor, time of flight sensor.   So either this has to be the last thing in chain or you want to use something like this hub here. So here's an example of one I put together and I also took advantage of the mounting holes to make a neat little stack of stuff right there. Let me fix that, focus the rest of the way there. So here you can see I've taken the hub and then I have these four sensors plugged into it and then the fifth item plugged into the hub is my QT pie right there. So here I've got an accelerometer, a pressure sensor, a temperature and humidity sensor and a magnetometer. So I can read the values on all of those over a single I squared C bus. They all have their own unique addresses, but as far as the actual wiring of the thing, it's really nice and neat with that little hub right in the middle there. So I'm just using some nylon standoffs and screws and nuts there to hook that all together. But these could actually be stacked into a single stack, depending on the types of things you're using, which makes life really nice and easy when you want to put a bunch of sensors onto a single microcontroller. If we take a look over at this view of the world here, let me bring up my text window there. Let's refresh this and reconnect to the microcontroller. So here you can see if it behaves, you know what, I might unplug and replug this, it might need to reset. There we go. So with this setup, you can just see all of these sensors in action. I've got a magnet here so I can mess around with the magnetometer settings. You can see if I tilt this and move this, we'll get some different values on the accelerometer. And then we've got the humidity, pressure, and temperature also reading out from there.  So if you want to take a look over at the site for this, let me jump back to this window and this page. There we go. Now, if I refresh this one, you'll see the price jump down to $1.25. So that's pretty inexpensive and it's a nice, neat way to be able to wire up your projects centrally from sort of a hub and spoke type of arrangement, which I always like for neatness sake. And you can use some nice little short, I think I've got the 50 millimeter Stem-AQT cables there, just five of those that I'm using for this. And if you want to take a look also at the learn guide for this, there's not, excuse me, there's not a lot to it. You could you could figure this one out, probably even without a learn guide. But if we take a look there, it'll show you the pinouts on these. We've got the ability to solder pins onto it. If you want to attach it to a breadboard for some reason, sometimes we do that even just for mechanical, a way to hook it into your project without necessarily using the screw holes. And then it's just got your standard connectors for I squared C, power ground, clock and data. And then we've also got the the usual fabrication print and fritzing object there. So you can use this inside of your fritzing projects if you want to. Let's see what else not not a lot else to say about it. Let's check the chat, see if anyone has any questions or thoughts. Hateco the world says, yeah, live demo success. Thank you. Yeah, at least it looked looks realistic when it doesn't work at first. Thankfully plug it in and we're good. Let's see, Gori G. So if you have two things with only one connector, you have to use a splitter.  And so you're using these little OLED displays. These will need some kind of a splitter for sure.  You could use this type of splitter. I think these have, I think we can change addresses on these. If we can't, then you definitely are going to need something like a multiplexer. But if you have different, different STEMIQT quick types of objects that have only the single connector on them, then for sure you'll want some kind of a splitter like this or hub like this. Let's see, what else? So most of them are getting an error trying to order. I don't know what that's about. But let me know if that persists. I don't know if there's any issues. I don't think there's any issues with the site right now. Yeah, it does have the power light on it, you can see there. So that'll light up. Let me bring this camera view back in here. So that'll light up. What I'm going to do is actually, I'll unplug this one here. Let's take this other, actually, reminder. You shouldn't be hooking I squared C stuff up hot. So you should keep this unplugged. So I'll just take a STEMIQT, QT PI, STEMIQT port, plug that into one port on the hub and then we can start adding. It doesn't matter which one you do, it's a passive connection. So it'll respond to any of those the same. And then I'll hook up this display right here and take another port there and plug in like that. So now if I get power on my QT PI, I don't have any code running that'll do anything interesting with these things. I don't think, but you'll see we got power running to the hub, power running to the display and power running to this time of flight sensor. So that's how you use it and pretty straightforward. Yeah, remember to unplug power before you go messing around with I squared C or you can get crashes and things. Okay, Kiyoshi said they got the payment issue worked out so the site should be working. Anything else? Any other questions? All right, I think that's gonna do it. So head on over here. This is the, that's the site right there. Bring up some URLs for you. Product 6525 or rather 5625, woo.  You can get up to 10 of them and that is at half price right now through to a little bit after the show, but mostly you wanna take care of that during the show, then the show will go back up to full price.  To go along with all of your great quick and STEMI QT types of sensors and breakouts. I think that's gonna do it then. Thanks everyone for stopping by that. Where'd mine go? Let me pull one, I'll leave some cables on it right there. That right there is my product pick of the week. It is the STEMI QT and quick five port hub. All right, that's gonna do it for today. Thanks everyone for stopping by. Don't forget we have our, I believe we have 3D hangouts tomorrow morning. We have show and tell. If you wanna come on and show your projects tomorrow evening at 7.30 Eastern time. And then we are expecting to have the Tramford return of Phil and the Moor for the Ask an Engineer show at 8 o'clock Eastern time. Pending caregivers for babies and such, but that's the plan. So thanks, come on by and watch that show. We're excited to have that back in its regular time slot. And then I'll be doing my workshop show on Thursday at 4 o'clock Eastern time. Thanks everyone for Adafruit Industries. I'm John Park and this is Heather Dup. And this has been JP's product pick of the week. Bye-bye.


This is the first session in the first unit of our series. In this session we shall provide an introduction to disasters. We shall discuss the background concepts, meaning and key issues related to disasters, as well as terminologies commonly used in disasters. We shall also look at the classification of disasters and the public health consequences of disasters. What does the term disaster mean to you? A disaster can be defined as the serious disruption of the functioning of a community or a society causing widespread human, material, economic or environmental losses which exceed the ability of the affected community or society to cope using its own resources. A key issue to note here is that the disruption exceeds the ability of the affected community to cope and they often need external help. This definition is by the World Health Organization. We shall define other terms. What is an emergency? It is a state in which no more procedures are suspended and extraordinary measures are taken in order to avert a catastrophe. Often these two terms emergency and disaster are used interchangeably. But emergencies involve suspension of normal procedures, the normal way we've been doing things so that we put in place emergency procedures to avert the possibility of occurrence of a catastrophe. Let us look at other terms. Hazard, risk, vulnerability and capacity. What is a hazard? A hazard is a threatening event of potential damaging incident. It hasn't yet occurred but it is a potential source of a disaster. What is risk then? It is the probability of suffering damage to life, property, economic disruptions from a hazard for a given area and reference period. Risk is a term usually used in probability and it is the product of hazard and vulnerability. What is vulnerability then? Vulnerability refers to the susceptibility to physical or emotional injury following a disaster. It is the degree to which an area, a people, physical structures or economic assets are exposed to loss, injury or damage caused by the impact of a hazard. What is capacity? It refers to the resources available including human, material and other types of resources that will enable a community to cope with a threat or resist the impact of a hazard. What is then the relationship between these terms? Disaster risk can mathematically be given by the equation risk equals to hazard times vulnerability minus capacity. Disasters may be natural, they may be technological that is human generated and then there are those that are in between also called hybrid disasters. Another way to classify disasters is based on the speed of onset. Disasters may be rapid onset or slow onset. Slow onset natural disasters could include drought and desertification, famine, deforestation, pests and plant diseases. Rapid onset natural disasters may include climatic disasters like floods, windstorms, wildfires and hail storms and geological disasters like earthquakes, tsunamis, volcanic activity and landslides. Technological disasters are often man-made. They result from activities by human beings or omissions by human beings. They include conflict, wars leading to refugees and internal displacement. These are often called complex emergencies. But technological disasters also include disasters like structure failure, building collapse, transportation crashes and accidents both on water and on roads and other types of accidents like chemical explosions, factory explosions and this type of accidents. Technological disasters also include military accidents, fire disasters, terrorism and industrial accidents. Hybrid disasters. In some situations it is difficult to classify a disaster on the basis of whether it is natural or technological. For instance, where do epidemics fall? We shall now look at the public health consequences of disasters. There are several consequences and they include death, injuries, loss of clean water, loss of shelter, loss of personal household goods, major population movements, loss of sanitation, loss of routine hygiene, disruption of solid waste management, public concern for safety that may include panic, increased pests and vectors, damage to healthcare systems, worsening of chronic illnesses like diabetes and hypertension, loss of electricity, toxic and hazardous exposures, loss of food supply, standing surface water. This is a pictorial presentation of some of the consequences of drought and famine. And this is an illustration of some of the effects of flash floods. This is an illustration of some of the effects of slow onset floods. This is an illustration of some of the effects of landslides. The Hiogo framework for disaster management is an international framework that emphasizes the following at all levels including operational levels. Establishment of subtle early warning systems, capacity building, emphasis on safety and resilience of communities, reducing risk factors and strengthening disaster preparedness at all levels. Pre-disaster definitions include preparedness which implies actions that result in persons knowing what to do and how to respond after a disaster has occurred. Prevention which means activities designed to provide permanent protection from disaster which include engineering and physical protective measures as well as legislation to control land use and urban planning. And then mitigation which refers to measures taken in advance of an event aimed at decreasing or eliminating its impact on society and in the environment. Post disaster definitions include response, these are decisions and actions taken during and after a disaster and they include immediately rehabilitation reconstruction. Recovery is another post disaster term. It refers to activities that restore vital life support systems to normalize operating standards and long term activities that return life to normal in the post disaster phase. Other definitions relief and rescue, this occurs in the time period immediately following the disaster. Exceptional measures are taken to save lives and care for survivors as well as meet their basic needs. There is a distinction between rescue and relief. Rescue is mainly aimed at securing life while relief is mainly meant to sustain life. Rehabilitation on the other hand is a process that occurs after the closure of the relief phase. There is no more dependency on support needed for basic needs. Basic needs have already been satisfied. It involves restoring mental and physical health and stability of the community. It involves instilling principles of sustainable livelihoods and empowering victims and survivors. It should lead to better development. Examples of rehabilitation include early recovery plans for internally displaced persons, reforestation programs, post recovery plans. The emphasis is on restoration of the original status before the disaster. Recovery examples include physical infrastructure repairs, enhancement of pre-disaster steps, building resilience of communities, providing new structures and housing that will be able to withstand a similar disaster in the future. There is an evolution in approach from response and relief to disaster risk reduction.  To reduce vulnerability to disasters in your district? To prepare for disasters in case they occurred in your district? All disasters are local. All disasters occur locally in a particular community. The earliest response to disasters often comes from the community itself. The capacity of the community to respond to disasters should therefore be built. Thank you for listening to this presentation.


No. Welcome back to the Janet Julian podcast. I'm kidding, it's not the podcast. This I think is the first time I've ever made five videos in a series on my channel ever. We've made it to five! Celebration. Or maybe not, I don't know, you let me know. This has been one of my favorite things to make. I think the last one that I did was about a year ago almost now. And it's reviewing bad apps. One of my favorite things to do is to go into the app store and find just the worst apps and try them out. There's three that I downloaded this time that cost over $10. They look horrible. We are the garbage men of the app store. Do we dive in to the filth and we take out the trash? So this first one is called, I think it's just called Blower and all of the reviews were like, on the thing it said, it blows real air. It really blows air. Okay, I'm intrigued. So I guess we press on. It's nothing. Yeah. It's an illusion because it's a laugh. It's really negligible amount of air. That much air is coming out. It's burning your phone.  Is it 99 cents worth of blowing power? No, it's zero cents worth of blowing power because it doesn't blow. I farted. That's blown more air than that.  It's probably better than that. Yeah, that's just really not good. I'm really happy. It's really not good. This one is called My Talking Pet. Let's take a picture. BGP. We've seen apps where just the stock dog or cat or whatever talks, but this allows you to make your own dog. To make your own dog. My name is Peach and I'm Have a basketball game tomorrow. I have a basketball game tomorrow. Oh my god. This is nightmare. Wrong. This is not a bad app. This is an amazing app. Can I do Kermit? Can I do Kermit? Yeah, you got to take a picture of it. All right, Kermit, come. Happy nightmares. I just heard that. Why did you have to take a picture of him when he was angry? Um, he's photogenic when he's mad. Let me see it. Hold on, we got to add some bro. We don't. He looks pretty cuddly. OK, I like this app until you just made it in abomination.  So I mean, is it three dollars worth of fun? It has a five star rating. OK, I think that's well deserved. It's pretty great. This next one is called the skin tanner. Oh, I could use it. Get a perfect tan every time. Cover skin with lotion? Sorry, sorry. Oh. Is this just like a paintbrush app? You're like, oh. OK, let's go darker. I want to go darker. Wait. I don't get it. Oh, that's lighter. You got to go darker. Is this like one of those prank ads? Get that arm. Oh, what is that?  They wish. Natural, man. That app costs a dollar. Do you have to post? Like, you say the picture. Does it save it with that title on top of it? If they had a good marketing team, it would. OK, this one is called brace yourself. You look cute. Don't look at lips and say that. I got an ad already. All right, let's go. Honestly, some of these apps, like, it's just about who can be the most creative in how they put an ad in it. We're going to give you some braces. Wait, the whole app is just giving you braces? Yeah, it's Photoshopping braces onto your. Brace for four years. It's not something you want for that long beach.  I'm saving it to my library. I'm having a nightmare. What do you think? Let's make them white. Babe, brace yourself, OK? I have to rate this app like zero. It is just like so it's bringing back way too much. What if I told you you can share it directly to Facebook with only the watching three ads? I'm going to need you to look away for a sec, please. Sure, drill in. When you go to the orthodontist and he give you this look. He's giving you braces. He's heartfelt. He just wants your teeth to get better. He looked like the kind of orthodontist that didn't go to school. Not only did I not go to orthodontist or dentistry school, I didn't go to any school ever. When you invite me to participate in these videos, I like to bring something that a taste maker would bring. Someone who knows culture, art, and finer things. I found an app called Fartbox. Can I do it? Can I explain some of the features? You have a sound board with 1 through 20. Different types, tones, and moods of fart. And you can range them from gassy to spicy farts. That's gassy, not bad. But if you want it to be spicy, my favorite part is the timer, right? So five seconds away, you just slide it in, you're like, mm-hmm. Karen! How much did that cost? $0.99. OK, don't sell it to me. It's a bad app. Can I just show you fart noise number 17, please? Sure. It costs $0.99 to get 20 more farts. I can get 20 more farts for way cheaper.  This next app is called Tickle Me. Hello? My name is Julian. I'll be touching you. Can I leave now? Babe, you told me to do it. Oh my god.   Yes, it is.  Like listen, OK? If your fetish is tickling and everyone's consenting, go for it. But to me, this is a little like. Oh, this is so creepy and weird. No, I'm going to close that one. Yeah, we should call it a day on that one. I'm done with tickle her. Also, I'm sorry. That's OK. I forgive you. This is called pickup lines. OK, oh, this is good. I like this one. Are we related? Do you want to be? Oh. That's disgusting. Is he offering to adopt her? If it's true that we are what we eat, I could be you by morning. He's a cannonball. I'm going to vom. Roses are red. Violets are blue. How would you like it if I came home with you? I'm calling the police. This is a hot-o-meter. Perfect. What? I think this might be fixed. I think it's real. Do you want to hang out with me?   What are you drinking?   This is so bad. It's one record.  It's not even like a multitude of, I don't know. They shouldn't be able to sell that. That's a joke. I feel like there's like no regulation on the app store. None. We're not going to enter. They can just make whatever they want and charge whatever they want for it. I might just sell my nudes on the app store. You should. Honestly, you can probably get $11 for them. Yeah.  Those nudes go up in value real fast. This is called sharks. You watch live speeds of sharks. How about this one? Is this one around? Functionality is definitely there. None of these are available. I can't even watch any live sharks. They stole from me. Please like and subscribe because Jenna spent money on this video that she'll never get back. This person stole from me. They literally stole from me. I wanted to watch live sharks. No. All right. So this is a live with me. OK. I'm finally at 96% so I can finally play. Hey. What is it? It's just a chat board. It's just a message board. For people who have phones above 95%? Yeah. So you're telling me that for die with me, first thing you're going to do when your phone hits 5% is you're going to hop on that app to see what your pals are up to? No one said anything on here for an hour. But if I dip to 94, I can't be on here anymore. You're not welcome.  That's it.  These cost money, though, by the way. Die with me was 99 cents. 4%. I'm at 4%. Open die. My name. Julian. Well, people are typing in Chinese right now. Go type. Hi, y'all. I'm at 4%. This is crazy. Wait, nothing's happening on my computer. This is going to fall. That's because everyone's so stressed out. This guy says, feeling so stressful, I want to cry. Then why are you on that app? Consular PC. Sean, let's squad. I'm making friends. Someone want to play together? Sean, me. He said, OK, we're at the same percents. It's kind of romantic. This is actually insane.  It's funny. Like, your phone's dying. So this is where you go to talk to people as your phone dies. Oh, he's down to 3%. He's going to be gone soon. I like die with me. I will say, alive with me is terrible. But die with me seems kind of lit. Die with me is dope. It's like a simple app. There's no other UI. It's just this message. Alive with me is the most boring thing ever. Yo, hop on, die with me. Let's chat.  I want to group up on Steam. Let's play PUBG. Let's talk about our feelings and let our phones die in peace. I love you.  Kissy emoji? Get off that app. These last three each cost $10.99. Oh, god. First one is called downhill snow catch. There's no way this is the whole game. There's no way this is the whole game. It's like someone walked up to me and stole $10 to me. Hopefully deadly sexy beach will be better. Are you eating people?  Where do they get off? Who funds these apps? $10. Hopefully sexy love game will be better. This was $11 suit. Tease their legs while fulfilling their secret fizz. Tease their legs, me. Is it just a picture? No, it's not. No, it's literally not. Oh, you shake it and it tells you what to do. Touch their shoulder while listening to your heartbeats? What? Get over here. I like it. $11 million. Delicately touch their shoulder. Take a look. I love your hands. Thank you. We do these and we find some that we like. I actually like that pet talking app.  But those last three are criminal. But there's stuff like that all over the app store. How do they get away with this? I feel so happy. We've been scammed. I need some Jesus dust on me. I need Jesus. You want some Jesus? Is Jesus going to give me my $33 back?  These are some of my favorite videos to make because I really love looking for just the worst apps.  We're exposing them is what we're doing. But yeah, that's it. Make sure you subscribe to my channel. I put it in the Facebook Wednesday slash Thursday. I want to invent an iPhone charger that will not charge your phone above 5%.  What have you been? She smells like food. All right, we have to go. See you next week. Bye.


information they experience kind of what's going on there it's like real time it's like they were there. That was like going to the gym. Legendary IBM CEO of Symantec and now CEO of Virtual Instrument great to have you on the Cube. So for Cube to be here at a conference like this it's got 15. Good morning I'm Kristen Folletti and welcome to News Desk on Silicon Angle TV for Wednesday June 12th 2013. IBM Edge is running this week at the Mandalay Bay Hotel in Las Vegas. Wikibon senior analyst Stu Miniman who has been attending the event joins us now to ride us with some updates as to what's been taking place. Good morning Stu good to see ya. Hey good morning Kristen it's Wednesday it must be that I'm still in Las Vegas. IBM's Ambush Goyal made a statement that the term storage is antiquated and that the industry should focus on data and results. So Stu I want to get your your response to that what's your take on that statement. Yeah it's it's a bit humorous you know he said first of all you think storage is something up in your attic and actually as somebody that you know worked for a major storage company for 10 years the first response everybody would have is like oh I work in storage and they'd say you mean like those big crates or the you know the place where you get a locker no no no no it's about data it's about information and that's where Ambush is going it's it's not about where we have a repository for information or archives it's really about how we get you know you know utilization and results out of what we've done and that was a big thing. Of course what I poke out a little bit is you know IBM has been kind of an afterthought in the storage market competitively for the last few years so it helps to try to reinvent that definition and therefore you can position yourself better. Of course IBM you know it's a huge company has lots of software assets they are you know very big in the services industry and they're trying to be you know hit these new waves of innovation and disruption that are coming into the kind of the data the storage market to become more relevant. Now IBM sees flash as having a major impact on system architectures. Stu is this a new idea? So you know if you listen to the the presentations on flash much of it you could say you know really echoes what Wikibon has been saying for the last couple of years. So no I wouldn't say that it is new as a matter of fact that is one of the criticisms of IBM is you know they do come out sometimes and say we have this great idea I actually went to a session of theirs in 2010 where they said you know flash is going to radically change you know what's going on in storage and we're sitting there saying well EMC has been putting flash into their arrays since 2008 here we are 2013 and we're still talking about flash. We think it's a good message though flash is radically changing the entire software and IBM now has you know pretty solid portfolio everything from what they're doing in extending their easy tier into the server through the flash systems which was the TMS acquisition that they've done. So you know flash is the hot button topic for storage it's been coming for the last five years but we still think there's more innovation we'll see over the next five years than we did the last so it's good to see IBM's on message you know most of the analyst community agrees with kind of the direction that they're looking to take it. You could say that IBM is very bullish on open source projects. How is it possible for IBM then to compete and differentiate in open source environments. Yeah actually I'd go further and say not just bullish I mean that open source is you know critical to IBM strategy and IBM makes bold moves. Remember back a decade ago IBM made a huge push into Linux. You know they've got you know dozens of development areas around the world where people are working on Linux. IBM doesn't just talk about open source they commit resources both dollar wise and people. Dave Vellante was looking through GitHub and looking at OpenStack and I think IBM was like this. I think it was second highest contributor on many of the projects. The Open Daylight Initiative for SDN has IBM really is one of the largest contributors there and what Ambush Gael says is that the way that IBM competes is through execution not through control. So I like that line and you know we also hear HP talk a lot about driving open source so you need to contribute to the community. You need to put together the solutions that build on top of what they have and of course IBM has good software and good services to kind of bring the whole solution together. So you know definitely IBM is well experienced at leveraging open source and one of the things I'd say is open source really typically will pull dollars away from licenses and drive them towards services which is right into the wheelhouse of IBM. Stu what would you say would be some of the highlights at this year's IBM conference and what are some of your top takeaways from this second edge conference. Yeah well definitely the commitment to flash and how broadly it goes across the portfolio. So not only from the hardware components and storage pieces. You heard the whole system through pure systems as to how flash fits into that architecture. Of course you know I hadn't mentioned it but SVC is still critical to what IBM is doing. So you know that allows storage virtualization so we can put flash behind that and that also transitions to what IBM calls software-defined environments. Really what most would probably call software-defined storage. So really they're extending that SVC storage virtualization into the software-defined environment. Really it has to be kind of that orchestration and automation that helps transition it from just being purely virtualization to being software-defined. But you know IBM is you know strongly committed. You know has some good growth areas that they can push into. They talked a lot about commoditization too. As you know IBM still I believe that the quote Dave Vellante always uses from Lou Gersner is they're recovering. They're likely recovering alcoholic. They had a hardware addiction but it's that commitment to open source that's driving the future of where IBM is going. The big takeaway for me is that the conference is doubled in size and you know really everybody seemed to be happy to be there. I wasn't know why is IBM doing this show it's they've only done it for two years they should have done it a couple years sooner and it helped drive strong momentum with the systems integrators and vars as well as the MSPs service providers and you know the the customers I wouldn't say it was like walking amongst you know just a bunch of fanboys but people that really understand what IBM's doing where they're going and you know very positive atmosphere there. When you find yourself interacting with conference attendees what are your discussions about what's buzzing. Yeah so I think you know flash obviously is something that the customers are all looking to pull in and one of the things that was really buzzing was IBM's acquisition of soft layers. So you know IBM hasn't really tried to over hype the cloud. You know IBM's not too often about hype they're about they have a number of solutions they have many different ways they go to market. It's such a large organization and they have so many solutions that it's easy for IBM to play many angles so they have software which gets a cloud stack as well as they're you know heavily working on open stack solutions. So you know customers seem you know quite happy working with IBM and you know just some great conversations is the reality of what they can do and you know there's obviously some things that IBM needs to do better. They need to make strides in storage. Their server business has been a little bit on the decline with the overall server business but you know they're working through their pipeline. They've got a robust roadmap and you know definitely one to watch in the space. Has IBM addressed any of those issues during the conference. You know most of the issues that I heard weren't around the announcements. Things like on their converge system were a little bit over a year into the since the launch of the product. I'd say some of the maturity of the software needs to increase and how they're going to market through the channel. So here are good strong indicators that they're the solution set as well and definitely getting lots of test case environments. Interestingly enough I was talking to the general manager of the solution. I believe it was and they're getting good traction in the emerging markets. So like China and Africa which is different than the rest of the converge infrastructure vendors that have tended to track with the virtualization typically. So heavy North American going to Europe. So IBM is going to some of those lesser server markets but you know nothing that I heard at the show that IBM had you know the announcements that that answered those but we know that IBM is working through and talking and listening to their customers very closely. Well Stu we know you've got a busy travel schedule but thank you so much for taking the time to check in with us great to have you. Thanks we'll be talking to you again soon. And get your daily dose of tech to get you through the midweek slump. Your silicon angle daily roundup fills you in next here on News Desk. We looked at all the programs out there and identified a gap in tech news coverage. There are plenty of tech shows that provide new gadgets and talk about the latest in gaming but those shows are just the tip of the iceberg and we're here for the deep dive.


I have gathered the two remaining members of the new High Council for this urgent trial of the human Anthony Amley, the murder, treason and illegally trying to transform himself into one of us. You aided the criminal tyrant Omega in a coup against me that has clearly and thankfully failed. Given the severity of the events outside this panopticon, yes that and the obvious nature of your crimes, I'm going to make this nice and quick. Anthony Amley, how do you plead? That's not my name. You have no right to the name you so desire. Turn fire, send those Daleks back into the Medusa Cascade in flames. We have a time Lord, words meant for the Doctor but fitting for you in these. Is this all you have to say in your defence?  That's what I thought. Lord Lamar, your verdict? Gildry. Lord Reeves, your verdict? Oh, you are going down, Amley. What kind of time, Lord, are you? The one with the real. Anthony Amley, you are sentenced to loom without regeneration. Gods, take him to the loom. My lords, with me, today we make our lord come back. Where is Omega? Out of sight, out of mind. Meaning? Attrash the mask. Oh, I see.   As soon as I was cast all those years ago, I knew that truly becoming this role, that was my end game. Being sentenced by the time lords themselves. I can think of two things far more glorious. Escape. Good morning, sunshine. New desk. That's nice. Another dimension again, have I? Road! Oh, hello Russell. I do hope you're not trying to talk to me, as this is a pre-recorded message and would be very awkward. This is playing because I am now back in control of Doctor Who Road. And now, I have the writer's pen. I can start meddling around with the desktop theme again.  And now, I've given you a bit more space, as well as I've given you all my terrible willshacks and to listen to, I don't know how to do well. I was running out of space on my self-made big finish shelf. Nerd. What? Whilst I have everybody at my attention, I would like to say that the following Doctor Who Road members are still very much missing either Tennant, Mott Smith, Elizabeth Shaw and Rose Tyler. The current information shows that Stephen Moffat has something to do with it.   Poor bugger. I know. Okay. Can you hear me or not? Well I can hear you. I miss Chippin'l already.  So to make sure everybody's got enough room, you should all be living in a room. I promise that nobody is living in a cupboard, but to make sure I've currently got my good friend, Derek Jackaby, going around and doing room checks. Inspection! Whoa! Whoa!  Which it appears to be. I am so sorry, Derek. And so, um, have you been hiding? I've never seen you around.  But your doctors never seem to want to explore it beyond your own boundaries. At least the companions sent gift baskets. Well, well, I suppose I never thought. Perhaps some tea! Tonight! I'm free. Every night really, I'm free. I don't have much of a schedule. Don't exactly have to go to work or anything, you know. Just do what we want, really, isn't it? So, some tea tonight perhaps. Your place, my place. Up to you. Yes. Why not? Doctor to Master, eh? Oh, um, will John Hurt be there? I never knew where he ended up in this silly little road. Ooh. Oh, come on, you must know John. He's the war doctor. You know, time war audios. He presumably made some with you. Is none of that really ringing a bell? Okay, tonight! If you need someone to talk to before then, my door's always open! All right! What a strange fellow.  The war doctor. Time war. Time war. You're flat girls. And do report back with any hot gossip, eh? Love gossip. What does that even mean? You know, sink it at high of the halls, trap streets.  I hope not. For he's sake, you know. He's been through enough. Come on, Clara.  I'm centenary taken. So, you can finally see again. Kind of, but not fully. Although, don't tell Clara that. Or not at all. See? That. Obviously. How about now? Yes. Even if I couldn't, I know what it is. That's not great. Neither have you two seen my main squeeze about. Just to make sure. She's actually there, right? Not a hallucination. Clara's dead. Humble, Bragg. And who exactly is your main squeeze? Jot. That has got to be some sort of a kink thing, right? Well, you're not wrong. I would say complain to Stephen Moffat himself for coming up with the idea, but, you know. Yes, quite. Anyways, I'm afraid it's a big end, though, Michelle. I certainly haven't seen him anywhere. And, well, Capaldi hasn't seen a gosh-arm thing. Okay, rude. But I can, although I'm kind of glad in this case, if I saw you and him together again, I would have some horrible, bill-related flashbacks. Well, to be fair, any amount of masters all in one room would be a truly terrifying sight that I hope not to see, especially not today. Four shadowing. As much as I love my time being wasted, I've got to go. Okay, so if you see him...  Okay, that was uncalled for. I feel it, you know. And I'm not the best at poker because I can't read the cards. I wonder what Sim's up to. Knowing him, something truly did age.  Because you'll probably go to heaven. Please don't hang your head and cry. I want my Missy, my sexy lady self. Did you get lost in the new land? I believe you have me mistaken. You're sort of bang on the money. Well, well, well. Master number three returns. Or are you a different number these days? A big Finnish love missing a sub, don't they? I need your help. No, no! Me first! You can't come swanning in from a few months' vacation without giving me some deeps. Deeps details! Oh, Ailey, you need to get with the times with this modern master. Well, if you must know. I went to an alternate dimension. My doctor was real.  Yes, that was point number two. Oh, I teamed up with Hermaga in order to kill Paul McGat. Are those answers to your satisfaction? It's funny. That was a truly master.  I aim to gather all us masters together. Partially to help out a new wildlife mine. But also to have a little chat with Davison. Well, before all that nonsense. One question. Do you think RTD made the tokla fame look like my boss on purpose? Because on close inspection, idiot! Why? When we had Sir Dedic Chakabee in the role, did RTD instead fart you out to the masses? Out of this? Days.  I miss you, Brigadier. You watching yourself, John? Well, what do you expect me to watch? Love and monsters? Ew, gross! No, no. You need to watch Robot, of course. The finest doctor who ever served. Ever made. You would say that, you narcissist. People call tenants the vain doctor. I am not watching that episode again.  It's very true. Although, do you remember that bit where I tied Harry up in a cupboard and left him for dead? Oh yes, that bit was admittedly hilarious. I wonder where he is in this road. I don't know the last time I saw him. I just don't. He's not getting out for a while, let me tell you. So what are you after anyway? You're hardly one for a social call. I was one. If you had sensed something was... I suppose I did get a bit of a chill a few moments ago. I don't know about the dignity of something specific. But we closed the cracks. It's over, nothing else can get through. We only closed them from our side. That evil moth out bugger could have sensed something else through from his side. Or...someone. Be a good chap and lock that door, would you? Psychic energy. Didn't he die? At least that's what I assumed up until now. No, no, he was taken. No body was ever found. How my friend feels. Oh, TMI. Oh, grow up. I'll be back soon. I've got to find him. Again? Did you feel it too? Yes, I did. Ailey's back. Can you believe it? Stay where you are. Stay exactly where you are. I'm on my way to you now. Just checking your place is all up to code. Yes, yes, that's... Good wall. Right, yeah, yeah, yeah. Guess what RTD said on that video message thing. Although, didn't it sound like he was having a one-sided conversation with, like, someone else? Anyway. Yeah, no, sorry. I get a bit sidetracked in my own brain. I'm a bit socially awkward if you didn't know. I was giving Sasha the winotour earlier, actually. But you needed a piss. That was about ten minutes ago. God, sorry. Oh, tell you what, whilst you're here, do you fancy a cup of tea? Very kind of an offer. This way, is it? Yeah, yeah, straight through the head. You know the layout, you've seen it about 13 times. Oh, how many tea bags do you want? I usually have about 57 myself. It just sort of fills up the mug. I'm pretty much just drinking bags. Oh, thank God you're safe. Well, yes. Why wouldn't I be? Anthony wouldn't hurt a fly. Look, there's something I haven't told you. Bloody synchronous. Have we learned nothing from pre-colon unit? That synchronous from us had a very bad idea. I never intended to keep it forever. See, what happened was... Sorry, Paul. What did you do that for? Or so explain what you just did. I only saw a saw on it. It's, um, hard to explain. But I endeavoured to... Davidson, with me, just to discuss. Ah, sir, yes, sir! Ah, it's been too long. Capone, I'll see you around. Go on, friend. Hey! What about me? You, my aging friend, best stay with him down there. I only aged him up a couple of years to overwhelm him. Well, not him, but any attackers that I thought were... Jesus Christ. Anyway, good to see you, ain't they? I'll get off for a drink. Oh, um... Don't expect me, seed. That is merely the feeling of progress, my friend. You are going to love. I am ecstatic you've returned. Of course I am. Come on, something's not right. You must feel it, too. McCann even tried to warn me about you before you... You... You... You was after him. Relax! I'm in the ready door. I'm trumps! Gomez? Hello again. Roberts? Shit, sorry, sorry. I was in the can. Beavers? Slash Pratt? I'm unsure.  Okay. So, what is this? Some sort of master family reunion? Duane is trying to find the last master. And I'd have gotten Delgado. It appears he's one of few that's managed to escape the road. But has it John Hurd joined him? Nice for some. It's a kind of him to invite us along. This is just my latest and greatest project. Do you want to know where I've been the last few months? Paris at Amour. Yeah, my guess like that, too. Like one minute, I'm this confident time lord with years of experience. And then the next I'm a complete dimwit drooling over my companion. It's a bit like that, is it? Not quite. It's difficult to explain. And being honest would make me sound rather insane. More insane than this road already is on its own. You mean what? Cybermen cracks in time? Said they'd be real in the future by yourself like that. No, but it's true. Even now. And I want to check the time. I look to this. This watch is me. I'm going to become human. It hasn't even worked, isn't it? Where did you get that from? I was found with it in the storm of an old TARDIS set. Only this. Is it important? You know what? If it's broken then it looks pretty broken. So why don't I have it? Right? Because I'm dead good at getting rid of fog watches. Like I'm the queen of it. And this all fun? Do I? Don't tell me. Are you the master now?  Exactly. And I've been given a very important task to collect. You? Bee.  You know, I thought you might need indoctrination. Wouldn't it be in masternation? But it looks like all we need is you. Okay. Right, Derek. Whatever you do, don't open that watch. Why not? It's just an old broken relic. Like me. I'll just do what I say, will ya?  You would dare. It's time to use racism to win again. Now they can see the real you. You better not try and put shooty-gap on in this board. It'd be like a bloody minstrel show, wouldn't it? Look, I'm not happy about it either. Okay? Just for the record. This table, we're all connected now, so he knows. He knows something's got wrong. He's purging me from the hive mind. I guess so. That's good, right? Did you really need to scare him for that? And fast. Follow me. Multiple impossible things happening in less than an hour. Don't be hated when that happens. I'm gone. No, madam. We will go and get him together. What is your end game here? You got what you wanted.  Now what? Isn't it obvious? No. No, not anyway. My master, we should go now. We don't want to get too much time to plan ahead. You all go. I'm going to stay here and fill my good friend of me in until he does get it. Missy lead the charge. Didn't you know? The Moffat made me sexist towards her. Does Lucy sex again? Shit, have I always been sexist? Capaldi's in there. She's his master. Simple as that. Megan is in there too. He's my doctor. Yeah, that's better.  In fact, we're the only two masters with cat eyes. Missy, just leave them there now, will you? Instructions received. Come on, masters. Quick, man! Is this some sort of kink thing for you? I don't even go there. Only Aintley, a claim doctor. And my best friend. Yes. I recall. It hasn't changed. At least I hope not. You know, I rather enjoyed my... One thing I missed from here was you. A funny way of showing it. So, tell me, what's the point in messing with all these master minds, hm? It's good, isn't it? But that's more for a... But it does still work. Maybe if all of the other doctors were gone... You, my friend, would have more incentive to come with me. Are you inviting me on a date? Oh, no, no, no, no, no. To Gallifrey. You really are deranged. Of course it's real! He was taken through a crack and came back out safe and sound. That's all he told us. That settles it then. We're going there. Aintley, you have to stop this. I can help you. I can get your mind back to normal. You know as well as I do that all the villains here...  I was sworn to secrecy by unit until the file was closed. Mostly out of respect for the bigger deal. But what I can say is that Aintley went crazy.  Which makes him very dangerous indeed. So, in the last couple of weeks, we have had...  Christ, what's next? Daleks, Clinides and Zagons. Don't jinx it! Like Jack has the budget for Daleks.  Like, did you really see? Like, did you? Cos I did. About Jack. Um, Jacks, never mind. Hey, stay focused. Look, they're going to be here any minute. We need to find a hiding spot and fast. I can deal with Aintley.  Don't even bother going there. We all know that three doctors are better than one. Exactly! Besides, it's not just going to be Aintley. It's going to be all of them. You need our help. Capaldi, you can't even see properly. Hey, who said that? And Jodie, you need to make sure that Jackabee does not open that watch under any circumstances. The war, doctor! Time to war! What's your plan, smartass? Oh, that's a rude word. I'm going to convince him to take me in exchange for leaving the rest of you alone. You really think he's going to take that deal? Well, he does appear to be obsessed with the whole Doctor Master thing, so... Yes, kind of banking on it. Wonder who that could be? To see you, babes. You are exactly the same as you were this morning. What did the Master Hivemind Bollocks even do to you? Oh, that's simple. It added my urge to kill all of you. I regret asking. Okay, that's on me, guys. I apologize. Hello, Michelle. Sorry, Missy. Hello, Missy. Good to have you here. No offence to you, but I would like to talk to the Mr. Master in charge, so... If you wouldn't mind, bring... He's on the way. Oh, don't worry. He told us. It's necessary, so please. Oh, please! Cos I will be the shooting-house-elf. What do we say, brother man? That's too soon, Gomez.  My Master, look, Eric. You could have explained our thing in a million different ways, so why is it that you went with that?  Oh, go on, Beaver. See ya anyway. No, I should just hurt them now. I like them. Other? Instraction? You want him? You're all going to have to go through us. King of the cliches! It's a little bit of a meme, isn't it? Yeah, yeah. Whatever. There's a screwdriver that did bug her all the way to camp. We're gonna have a half hour nap. I'm fondly terrified. He said some cast to kill me. Chase! Cos I've only got one thing to say to you. Someone's not seen last of the time, lords, in a while. Isomorphic control. Top, you've already done this bit with me.  I did not come all the way back to this throne. To get notes! It appears you've not been telling your friends the whole truth. Shall we fix that today? I have never lied to anyone here. Not what I mean. Hi, Miss Whitaker. How are you? Do you mind telling me where Paul McGahn went when he disappeared from Doctor Who Road? You never even told them that. You fiend. The time went wibbly. I was with you for months, but for everyone here it was just... just an afternoon. Right, what are you talking about? Time isn't what you think it is. It's complicated. I'm a time lady. I can take it. Look, people assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually... Are you blinking me? Yes, I do appear to be, don't I? Apologies. What are you doing? This, yes. Moffat let me borrow some broadcasting equipment. I didn't... Funny enough, it's the same from that cyber invasion you all had recently. This place, I don't know. Anyways, you know what? I'll explain when you're big again. So, Robert, I know it's not your thing, but would you mind? Thank you. It's tissue compression time. No. No, don't you dare! No, no, please! No! If you're awake or if you're alive, I will get you out of here, I promise. You are alive across Doctor Who Road. So please do not swear.  Oh, great. Now I have to bleep that. What if Daughter of Mine is watching? This is what's going to happen, okay? I am going to ask you questions, yes? And you are going to answer honestly. Answer dishonestly. And I instruct my master friends to start kicking down the doors of their respective doctors and doing whatever that arranged mind wants. Is that understood? You were taken last year. Where'd you go? I was taken to a dimension where the events and characters of Doctor Who... What? Now tell me, what foes did you encounter? Daleks and Davros himself. What others? Come on, spit it out. What others? Well, I suppose if memory serves their worth. We came across some Autons on their homeworld, as well as a very peculiar Cyberman. Both of which coincidentally attacked this road. Except it wasn't a coincidence, was it, McGann? In fact, I can tell you with confidence, that there is no other way. But because you never showed your face during these attacks. They presumed that all other doctors were me. They believed that I had just regenerated, I suppose. Exactly. And so, it could be very easily debated that... The disappearances of Tennant, Smith, Baker... Those adorable companions... They're all... Your fault. Anyways, enough continuity wanking. Basically, dear viewer, what happened was... He went to Caliphate. He went to Caliphate. Basically, dear viewer, what happened was... He went to Gallifrey. He started the time war that he was so desperate to avoid.  Started two invasions that led to the disappearances of your dear friends. Did I miss anything there? That's a bit of an oversimplification. More or less true. Now that I've gotten some cheap revenge points... Missing! Bring me Davison. It's time to get onto the real reason why I'm here. What do you want with him? A master needs his doctor. We're going home. What do you even want with me, Malfat? You've already stolen people from me, including my biggest cash cow Tennant. What more could you possibly want? I just wanted to do this in my old office. Well, sort of old office. It's kind of changed twice since I was last head of right, haven't it? You get what I mean. What can I say? I'm nostalgic.  Get ready to say goodbye to a couple more doctors, Russell. Very soon a cracking time will reopen. Sending us back home where we can finally live out our collective fantasies in peace. I never wanted that. I just like playing pretend. That's why I became an actor for God's sake. Liar! He's not lying. But that is what I want. So come on, take me instead. Leave him. No. Davison is my doctor. That is how it is in the show. So that is how it will be in real life. Then what's the point in bringing me along as well? A doctor needs his master, you said. So where do I fit into this narrative? I'm thrilled that you asked. I wouldn't dare. Please, you're empty handed.  I forgot I did that. I needed some cheaper revenge points. Long story. That's how it was written, so that is how it must be. Why are you not the war master? Doesn't matter. You'd better be ready, only. Just another doctor down, I see. Yes. Hello again, Paul. Good to see you again. Anthony, let's go.  What will happen to him? Well, the trial actually happened months ago. A.K.A. earlier today. Wibbly wobbly. So he will be placed back in his loom. After all this, he gets to live.  Oh my God, where's my beard? He's the master for God's sake. We all know how this is going to go.  I am not looking over my shoulder for the rest of my life because of this one arsehole. If it helps, being put in a loom is basically death. We just can't say it for legal reasons. Is that right? Well, yes, take him then. Why not? There goes our friendship, Sam.  How could I be friends with some murderer psychopath? You did it in the show. The show is a text that can't be diverted from. That is fiction.  Wait, how about a counter-offer? I could have helped him in the other dimension, your dimension, but I was too wrapped up in my doctor persona to truly see that. So what if you keep him here? I can look after him. He'll be my responsibility. Sorry to butt in, but has this road always been this weird? I've been out of the game for a while. I'm not having him breathe anywhere near me ever again after today. Do you hear me? Let Ramana take him. What are you doing, McGann? It's certainly a tempting offer. It's less to do on our part. Fully busy with this war. No, no, no, no, no, no. I have already been Omega's pet. I'm not being this dicks now. Well, I mean, if he hates it, then what choice do I have? It's perfect. McGann, you are here by... Ah, okay, right. Look, you were in that dimension for so long. You must have found a way to regenerate. I never did. I tried so hard, man. No dice.  You're the master, for God's sake. Do you hear me? The master. Staying alive is your whole thing. Ramana, there has to be a way to let him regenerate. Perhaps take him to Kahn. He was sentenced to loom without regenerating. Well, it's my responsibility now, so tell me, is that possible? In theory, yes. That's a yikes. Okay, right. Abort, abort, no! It's not over this, preggie. We're already doctors down and... See this? This is what I want. Keep looking for them, please, our friends. Keep looking for them, but don't bother with me. I'm going home. I win. Not in the way. Turn soon, old friend.
