Well, good morning, everyone. And, uh, welcome. We decided to do something a little bit different here today. I'm Delia Lake. I am one of the curators at the Abyss Observatory. Um, Jan Lauria is also, and he is here. And, um, Jan and I transformed the Science Circle Amphitheater into an undersea studio for this presentation this morning. And the whales and dolphins that you see above you and around you are part of the collection that normally live at the Abyss Observatory. And after this they will return. We are in voice this morning. I will do some typing if needed. And, uh, otherwise, instead of having a highly formal presentation, this is much more of a conversation. So, I have prepared slides, um, but really this is about whales, dolphins, porpoises, and us. We humans. How, how, what we know about them, what we don't know about them, um, and more of an exploration than anything else.  So feel free to get up off your chair and try one of those. Also, the two orcas, the, um, the mother and calf orca, mostly will let people swim with them or on them. So, if you click one of them swimming above you and want to take a little ride, they will be pretty willing to oblige, I think. If you do that, if you choose to ride on one of the orcas, um, we only have the two of them here today. So, if you would take a little ride and then let someone else take a turn, that would be super. When Jess and Chantel asked if we would do the, uh, this presentation or this discussion today, I was delighted to do this. And that is because I have been interested in whales and dolphins and cetaceans in general for, for many years. So, one of the most poignant experiences for me was now, um, gee, 16 years ago when I was on a whale watch, um, off a cod in, um, right near Stelwagen banks, which is one of the, um, feeding zones and nurseries for the North Atlantic along the US coast. So, this is what I posted because this was really quite an experience for me. I'd seen whales, I'd been on whale watches before, um, but this was different. When we were first out, um, a bunch of, well, a small pod of fin whales zipped by, they're very, very fast, but they didn't stay. But a young humpback whale decided that we humans on the boat were pretty interesting and curious creatures. And he or she wanted to check us out. So for a good 15 minutes, this humpback was performing, jumping, um, bringing his face out of the water so he could look at us. I snapped a few pictures, but, uh, and one of them is on the slideshow behind us, but mostly I was just entranced. And at the end of the 15 minutes, this humpback raised itself out of the water, turned to the side just a little, and looked directly at us. I was probably 30 meters at the most from this marvelous, marvelous creature, and you knew, I knew there was somebody sentient there. So that's an experience that never left me and probably, I never will. So I don't know if anyone else has had that kind of experience, but this is an opportunity for us to talk together and share. So I ask, are the people here, have you ever seen a whale or a dolphin live? For those who have, what was it like? Were they in the wild? Were they in captivity? What was it like for you? What do you think it might have been like for them? They're magnificent creatures, beautiful, beautiful. So we'll talk a little bit about whales in the wild and a little bit about them in captivity. Citations, whales, dolphins, and porpoises are marine mammals. And here are just a few of the many, many species. So take a minute and look through them, the pictures here. And are any of them familiar to you? Are some of them unfamiliar? They come in various sizes and shapes and capabilities. Some are enormous, some are as small or smaller than we are. If you live on the coast, you've probably seen harbor porpoises. The blue whale is the largest of these creatures. It's not actually blue. It's more of a mothled gray and white that takes on the reflection of the water and grow to 30 meters. So think about that. How long actually a little bit longer? How long is 30 meters? My house is not 30 meters long. And 190 tons. If you want me to try to move it up a little bit, I can do that. If that's going to make it easier for people, I can, yeah. That's easy enough. Let me stand underneath it. Okay. Yeah, that's fine. So most whales have a very extensive territory. They migrate. And they may migrate thousands of miles. They're not hundreds of miles, but thousands of miles. And 50 years is probably a conservative estimate. There is some evidence that some whales live 80, 90, 100 years. They feed in the cold waters, either in the Arctic or Antarctic areas or areas of the North Sea, the Stelwagen banks, any of the highly productive cold water areas that have nurseries for small fish and lots of plankton. They also longer childhoods and become adults around 10 or 15 years of age. Some of this is hard to pinpoint exactly because there are no whales in captivity, not large whales in captivity. So although they're tagged, some of the research is not exact. It takes a lot of food for a very large whale. There are tons of food today. And so they typically have only one calf every couple of years. It takes a lot to feed the calf as well. The smallest of the cetaceans is the New England, New Zealand dolphin. And there are four different species of them. Most of them are highly endangered. They're very small and live along the coast of New Zealand. They go out about 50 kilometers at the most from the coast. Whales, dolphins, porpoises, and ancestors that were land mammals. So when you look at a whale or a dolphin or a porpoise and you see the flippers, if you could see inside, if the skin and muscles were transparent, you could see limbs, often with bones that look like fingers. So about 50 million years ago in the Iosane, these land mammals began to evolve into sea-dwelling creatures. It didn't happen overnight. Little by little, they lost a lot of the genes for hair. They also increased their ability to hold their breath so that although these are air-breathing mammals, they can be underwater for often hours. And a couple of interesting things that they no longer sleep like we sleep, like other mammals sleep. Your dog, your cat as well will curl up and go to sleep for a number of hours, although my dogs and cats are more alert in their sleep than I am in mine. We don't really know what drove the transition. The evidence, the fossil evidence, the oldest fossil evidence of this transition is in the area of India and Pakistan that was shallow sea at the time. We don't really know what drove them. We just know that from what we have found in the fossil records that the transition took roughly 12 million years. So if you look closely at the right-hand side of this slide, you'll see drawings, estimations of what the creature transition might have been. One of the things that I find really interesting is that while land animals have genes for clotting blood, so our blood doesn't just flow out, that is a disadvantage for a deep-diving sea mammal. So they've lost some of their blood clotting ability. If they didn't lose that, they would have blood clots in their arteries from the nitrogen, from the deep dive and rise. They would have the same kind of effect that human divers have. So the only way for them to survive is to not have these same kinds of blood clotting genes. So the other interesting thing to me is that the closest relatives today of whales, dolphins and porpoises are hippopotamuses. So there are two distinct groups here. They're toothed whales and they're baleen whales. Notice I have more than one number here for the number of species. That's because there are a number of estimates as to how many species there are. So it's roughly 70 to 75, but we're not actually sure. Just recently they have assessed that some of the orca population that had previously been lumped together are in fact separate species. So this number is a changing number. And although we speak of them as different, dolphins and porpoises are actually toothed whales. Most of them are ocean dwelling, but not all of them. There are five dolphin species that live in freshwater and one porpoise. So in the Amazon, in some of the South Asian, Southeast Asian, Chinese rivers, you will have dolphins. My daughter has been swimming with the dolphins in the Amazon. They have to eat a lot. They're huge animals. So they spend a good part of their waking hours finding food. This is one of the ocean dolphins. Blackfish is the general name for the larger ocean dolphins. That's probably true that they could grow larger because of the buoyancy of the water, but it also is going to depend on the availability of food. Because if you have to find tons of food a day, that takes energy in and of itself. So the toothed whales eat a whole variety of different creatures.  They eat crabs.  They also eat larger fish. They will go for seals and sea lions and sharks even. So you'll find on occasion that an orca will be going for a shark almost the same size as it is. They lean whales are the largest of the whale cetacean family species. They are the blue whale, the gray whale, humpback. All of the whales that were almost hunted to extinction. Now of course without teeth they have to feed somewhat differently. They don't go hunting their prey with echolocation like the toothed whales do. They just go to the place where there is an abundance of plankton and small fish like anchovies. And open their mouths, scoop it up. And as they close their mouths and the water flows out the baleen holds all of the edible creatures, which are swallowed whole. For a long time they thought that the baleen whales developed first and toothed whales developed from those. But that seems not to be so. The current research shows that toothed whales developed first and baleen whales evolved from them. But imagine here again we have a 190 ton gray whale and this is what it eats and how it eats. How much time would you have to spend eating in order to get sufficient energy to power that size of a creature? India has done what no other country has done to date. And that is recognized dolphins as non-human persons. So think about that for a minute. You see in the news that people are proposing that primates other than besides human primates should be designated as non-human persons with all of the rights of persons. But India has recognized dolphins now with those rights. And so that puts them with a different level of respect and care than they have in many other countries. So we didn't really talk about it. But the basic difference between dolphins and porpoises is that dolphins tend to be beat and porpoises are not. But porpoises have been studied so far as their sonar capabilities go and studied a lot. It's astonishing, amazing that they have the sophistication of their echolocation. That they can sense things that even our most sophisticated human technology is unable to do. So the U.S. Navy, for instance, has worked with porpoises for years and in their research has monitored them, has tagged them to begin to understand how the porpoises do what the Navy and their submarines are unable to do yet. Yeah, wouldn't it be nice? And maybe that will happen that we will stop hunting them. Many countries have stopped hunting them, but not yet Russia and Japan. Wales also live in social groups. They live in complex, sophisticated social groups, very much like many other mammals do, humans included. They know their families, they know their family members always. They also know their friends and yes, Wales do have friends. So that it has been observed that Wales that are tagged and haven't seen each other in a long time due to migration patterns. When they get together, when they gather in large groups, large communities of a number of different pods that they greet each other. Glad to see each other just as we would do. Yeah, I should go back to that on the echolocation. Then the porpoises not only have the ability to manipulate the pressure waves in the water, but they also can change the shape and the internal structure of their heads. So that they can control the sounds and how the echo of the sounds by how they are able to shape their own heads. It's just astonishing. Imagine, just take a minute and try to shape anything on the inside of your own head. I've tried, there's no possible way I could do that. They do this all the time. We don't actually know how they do this. Still, still to be determined. As I said earlier, their capabilities are so far beyond anything that we humans, even with our technologies are able to do. Yeah, I like that they have social relations too. And the culture of families are different, just like the culture of human families are different. So if you go across the globe and you go to different countries, different areas, different regions, you'll find different types of communities and social structures for humans. You also find this for whales. So that how they form their social groups is dependent, is cultural, and how they speak with one another is also cultural. They have dialects. They're smart. Really smart creatures. Now, of course, they have a leg up on us in length of time of evolution. We're looking back many more millions of years for citations than for humans. So I guess it shouldn't be surprising that they are in some ways far ahead of us. They have large complex frames and complex social structures. Yeah, they do remember, it's more than just remembering faces. Dolphins can identify themselves in a mirror, just like a gorilla or a human. So if they see themselves in a mirror, they recognize themselves as distinct from other dolphins. Yeah, really. They are also capable of identifying their body parts related to human body parts. So, you know, arms, belly buttons, that sort of eyes, if they can distinguish, they can relate. Dolphin eyes, oh yeah, humans have eyes too. Amazing, amazing, amazing. Because they have complex, important lifelong social structures, it's not surprising that they would grieve their dead. And this is, the picture is of a striped dolphin mourning a companion, but they're also, this is only one, there are numbers of instances.  And the orca mom carried, you know, pushed, kept with her the calf for weeks. And then it was almost, when she let the calf go, it was almost a ritual letting go, just like it would be for a human. Yeah, people are working to develop communications with other species.   This is again on the side, but it was years ago, and near where I was living along the side of the road, there was a Canada goose that had been hit by a car and died. And for days, the mate of that goose stood by the dead mate. And so it happens in most species where you have an attachments. Another interesting thing about some of the dolphins, and this is a particular group of dolphins that has been, the bottlenose dolphins that has been observed. So cuttlefish are squid related creatures. But they have an internal bone. That's the bone that you will often see in pet stores in bird cages for birds and sharpening or smoothing off their beaks. It seems kind of a shame to use another marvelous creature just for that. And hopefully somebody will, if they haven't already, will invent a non-killing way to provide the beaks moving for birds. So the cuttlefish has an internal bone, but it also has ink. And the ink is not edible for the dolphins. So not only do these particular bottlenose dolphins kill the cuttlefish to eat, they have a whole process for removing the bone. And to shake the all of the ink out. And it's not just one. This pod of dolphins and the community of dolphins nearby are all doing this. Other bottlenose dolphins don't seem to be doing it. So the guess is that this is taught learned behavior. Dolphin culture, yes. Dolphin meal preparing culture. Another pretty amazing thing. We know quite a bit about bird songs. Whale songs are at least as complex, if not more. So that whales do communicate because they have the, they're able to make low sounds, the sounds carry for miles. Yeah, we will put the PowerPoint slides so that the links work up on the Science Circle site so that people can actually read some of these articles and listen to these wonderful sounds. But the interesting thing here is that whales have dialects, but they also, because they are social creatures and speak not only in the family pods are the the tribes, so to speak, but also gather in large groups, particularly for the breeding seasons. They learn songs from each other so that recently they found that they can, scientists can track where whales go, back their journeys through their sounds, so that they pick up riffs like jazz musicians from other groups, from other whale communities. And they are just beginning to track these through through mapping, which is quite amazing. So if you go to the links when we put up the slides and you go to the links you'll be able to hear on the SoundCloud some of the variations of these themes. I've listened to it a number of times and I find it absolutely fascinating. Yeah, yeah, whales will, they're curious about us, just like we're curious about them. And you gotta think, I gotta think anyway, that that whales are trying to communicate with us. I certainly got that feeling with the first experience that I shared here this morning about the humpback whale coming up to the boat that I was in and just looking at us, just looking around. And it was as though this performing young humpback was on a stage and connecting with the audience one by one by one by one. Yeah, yeah, copyrights for whales, yeah, yep. Oh God, if I could only make such a sound, which of course I can't. Of all kinds are under great stress. Ron, you were talking or mentioning the Chesapeake Bay on the eastern coast of the United States when we first gathered here this morning. And that is under stress for all of the creatures there, but climate change and particularly the warming of the ocean water because the oceans are absorbing most of the carbon dioxide. Most of the carbon dioxide that we are spewing into the air does not remain in the atmosphere but is absorbed by the oceans. So that is a twofold problem. One is because we are warming the globe in general, the oceans are also warming, but two, because the oceans are absorbing carbon dioxide, they are becoming more acidic. So why would that be such a problem for whales and any of the creatures? And they've shown now that the shelled creatures have softer or porous shells and so they are not as healthy, but it's even down to the microscopic algae and diatoms. All of the phytoplankton, phytoplankton, and we've talked about this on some of the tours that I've given at the abyss. And when the cells are weaker, the creature, the tiny microscopic creature is less healthy. They also store less carbon and they are smaller in size in the warmer waters. In very cold waters of the Arctic and Antarctic, there is a fatty content to the phytoplankton that makes them those phytoplankton and the smaller fish more nutritious. For the whales. So that here, they don't have the same nutrition value and we are finding whales that are undernourished. You have whales and dolphins that are on porpoises that are washing up on beaches and they are starving. It's both Shiloh. It's related but a problem, but the acidity is something that is not talked about a whole lot when the, and if you drop, for instance, a baby tooth into a glass of Coca-Cola or any kind of soda like that carbonated soda, it will disintegrate over time, over a short time, where it wouldn't in regular salt water. Yeah, the acidity is from the dissolved CO2 and the oceans have absorbed a lot of CO2. So we have a carbon sink in the water of the oceans that is only beginning to be taken into account in some of the climate modeling. And as the water temperature increases, the oceans will not only absorb less carbon, but they will begin to release carbon dioxide, which is another, going to be another contributor to increased warming of the atmosphere. Yeah, frightening. You know, no kidding. Very frightening. So there's another problem here before we leave this slide that is happening and it, it has shown up a lot of places, particularly they started studying this a number of years ago on the wild coast of South Africa. And that's the eastern coast of South Africa. And that's one of the areas of high marine productivity so far as multiple fish species and cold water and churn. And what they found was that some of the fish, larger fish and dolphins and whales were becoming undernourished because the warmer seas were had interrupted the migration and reproduction cycles. So that it would be as if on land, the bees came to the, the apple tree after the flowers had already passed and the tree was starting fruit. I mean, it's killing the creatures because the normal, the adapted cycle is out of sync from what it was for eons. So that the dolphins and the sardines might not arrive at the same time. So you can see it roll this through the kind of disastrous circumstance that this produces. And this is not just happening on the wild coast. It's happening all over the world in the oceans. And it is most of the time unseen. Somebody mentioned plastic. Yeah. Plastics, plastic trash is a horror. So 100 years ago, 200 years ago, we had significant hunting of whales. And we hunted humans hunted some whales, almost to extinction, and they hunted them for meat, but they also hunted them for, for blubber or oil. Many of the countries that first developed lighting used whale oil as light and light energy. So, yeah, the baleen is what they used for corset stays. So imagine you are killing this magnificent preacher and you are using the baleen or tightening the wastes and shrinking the wastes of a small set of female humans. Awful. So, because the low sounds travel, it interrupts, it not only breaks the eardrums of the whales and dolphins, but it interrupts their communication. And just like all of the human noises on land is changing the way birds communicate, some of them are becoming nocturnal because there's less noise at night. But the depth charges of the navies around the world is very, very, very damaging. The smaller whales, the dolphins, the porpoises are killed in bycatch so that if there's hunting, particularly by the large factory ships for tuna or any of the larger fish, the dolphins are caught in that. But let's go back to the plastic for a minute. It's the micro plastic, but it's also the large plastic and this is starving the whales. The whales look at this as something that might be edible. It moves around and many, many whales now have been found on the beaches and full of plastic. This is our problem. Yeah, we have done this. We are doing all of this. So that with the whale hunting, when people stopped hunting the whales, any particular species of whales, for instance, the right whale, the species came back because all of the other conditions were still there. They still had food. They still had their migratory patterns. They still, everything was still in sync. But we have interrupted all of the patterns now so the chances that they can come back are not anywhere as near as good as they used to be. One of the documentaries that has changed some of the awareness and some of the conversations about these magnificent creatures is the 2013 documentary Blackfish. And this is because it's still available about an orca that was in captivity at SeaWorld and has since died. But since these are such intelligent social creatures with enormous territories to confine them in solitary, without companionship, without the ability to go more than tens of meters, think about it, what would happen to a human left in solitary confinement for a year after year after year? They develop psychological problems and it is not surprising. So that now there is a more realistic awareness of what we are doing to these animals by capturing them. Back to the dolphin mourning the companion. Imagine if you are taking a calf from the mother. The mother, the wild mother is going to be berserk and the calf is going to be bereft. So there is a movement all over the world to free these creatures. Most very recently in the last year or so they have been freeing them in Russia and this is really wonderful. This is excellent. Hopefully all of the confined whales, cetaceans will be freed. Yeah, it's just like any other circus, Shiloh, just like any other circus. There are people who are working on this. In our own tiny way, Jan and I, in building the habitats on the Abyss Observatory and putting the information there are trying to raise awareness of what it is like to be in a tiny way experience the freedom and the joy of swimming with some of these marine creatures. And even though it is a virtual experience, it still provides that emotional touch and the memory of being there and doing that. Whale and dolphin, this is one of the whale and dolphin conservation organizations. So if you want to know more about what is being done, this is only one of them, but I wanted to put it up here so that people could actually go to the site and learn more and follow what is being done in advancing the conservation of these magnificent creatures. And if you want to join us at the Abyss, these creatures above us will go back there. And I am there often, Jan is there often. We are available to answer questions, have conversations or just play in the wonderful waters there. And we do absolutely encourage people to come over and visit Hangout as often as you can. So I am going to put the link here if you don't already have a landmark. And thank you all for coming today. It was a pleasure doing this. I loved it. I had a great time and I am very glad to be able to share this with all of you.  They, you know, it's not always their prey, but that is one of their prey animals. Yes, we did. That was fun too. Yes. Yeah, the microplastics, that's an enormous issue and they're finding microplastics throughout the oceans. And this is what happens when plastics begin to disintegrate. And it's not only in the oceans at this point, it is everywhere. So it is in the, you're finding, we are finding microplastics in the freshwater supply. We are finding microplastics that have in the air that from when the waters have evaporated and carried on to the highest peaks of the Himalayas and the Arctic. And all over the world, there isn't a place on the globe now that is doesn't have some microplastic deposit. They are also finding microplastics in muscles of fish so that wild fun fish. You're probably eating some microplastics and if you extrapolate from that, it's probably in our muscle tissue as well. Atrazine, it's concentrated in the lakes and rivers, but because the oceans are so vast, it hasn't concentrated there like it has in a number of the lakes, the freshwater lakes. Oh yeah, there are lots of hormone disruptor chemicals, but it tends, you know, there are a lot of variables too with proximity and concentration. Yeah, mine too, Jan, and this is happening in all of the cold water areas that the nutrient upwelling is not as nutritious anymore. When the water is warmer, the critters are smaller and it's not as nutritious. Yeah, yeah, that is true George, places where humans have never visited are now strewn with plastic. My guess is, Ariane, that the bleaching of the coral has an indirect but not a direct effect and it would have an indirect effect because coral reefs also provide nursery safety for fish species. And then the corals bleach and the water is warmer, the nurseries also disappear. And so there are fewer of the prey species for the marine mammals to eat. Oh, my pleasure Chantel, my pleasure. Jan did some of the decoration too, so as I said, these are critters that normally live at the abyss, so come and visit them there. Yes, teamwork. Yeah, for sure. None of us could do this alone. I did the sea level rise one time a number of years ago when I had the Center for Water Studies on Better World Island when Better World was still here. And we were doing something on the glacial melts and the sea level rise. And so I actually set up an exhibit so that the glaciers would melt and raise the level of the sea around the island. I raised it like five meters and all of a sudden everybody there was under water. It was another example of how a virtual space can give a sense of being there, an experience. Thank you, Shiloh. People are of course welcome to stay, but my very young dog, the solid world, is nudging me to get up and go take him out. So thank you again for coming. I had a great time and I'm glad you all liked it. See you soon. I'll be back later today, Chantel, to nudge the marine mammals back to the abyss.


Real women may do it all, but we are not invincible.


Hello, welcome to SSUnited, social this site and this is part 2 of Power BI Tutorial. So today we will see how we can download the Power BI from the internet and how we can install that in your system. Let me open the browser. I am going to use the Google Chrome.

Hi, Crystal. Which were our Mountain View Salon revenues in April? Morning, John. The Salon's revenues in April were $53,210. That's up $12,000 from the previous month. Oh, that's great. We made a big investment in the Salon last February, and we're expecting the revenue trend for the past three months to be positive. Mm-hmm. The trend is positive, with an average monthly 17% increase in revenues. The average receipt increased on average by 8%. Oh, my boss will be happy. Now, let's go on to check the overall profitability trend in North America. Sure. Overall profitability is up 3% on property stores since last year. I noticed that franchising Salons are down 1% on the same period. Okay. Let me know if that changes. What about Europe? Noted. With regard to Europe, it's plus 1% on property, and I see no variation on franchising. I have a feeling I deserve a promotion. How are loyalty cards contributing to this growth? 32% of our customer base is using our loyalty card, up 5% from last year. These customers visit your Salons around 7 times a year, with an average receipt of $64. Thanks. I'm done for now. Talk soon. I'll be checking some data in the meantime.

So just before we start I would like to ask you again to squeeze into the middle if you have free seat next to you please squeeze into the middle of the room so we have room for people entering the room after the presentation starts and now I would like to introduce EG Bands. We'll give you a presentation about new features in OpenVswitch so floor is yours. Yep. Hi. Since the mic is working. So OpenVswitch, okay so let's start with a question. No scar for this question, sorry. Who knows what OpenVswitch is? Raise your hands. That's good. I was a bit afraid that people here would just come and try to learn something about OpenVswitch and then I will start with something really hard and difficult. So this doesn't, doesn't work. So new features let's just first try to make sure that we know what we mean by new features so the current version of OpenVswitch is 2.4 was released in August it's like half a year ago and actually this version came after one year gap so the previous version 2.3 was a year before that and obviously during that time a lot of development happened and a lot of new features appeared so this talk will be mostly about 2.4 but also about 2.5 which is going to be released soon hopefully even this month maybe in March if everything goes well and actually I will be talking about few features that will go even beyond that 2.6 or maybe even later depending on how fast the developers are. I will be mostly the most of the most okay as you probably know OpenVswitch has several data paths, data paths can be current data path or user space data path. I will try to cover both but focus a bit more on the current data path so just for reference the current version is 4.4 there is just a few weeks ago the upcoming is 4.5 and I will cover also these kernels during this talk. I don't remember that was the current DPDK version it's not so much important now so from the high-level view the new features can be divided into like five groups. First improvement in the OpenFlow because the OpenFlow standard specifies quite a lot of things and not all of those are implemented in OpenVswitch so new things are being implemented constantly and the the committee that is responsible for the OpenFlow standards is just adding things even more quickly so there's always something to add. Next quite a big topic is tunneling. There was a lot of new stuff with tunneling that happened in the past year. The third topic is connection tracking. That's actually quite important stuff we will talk more about that and related topic is network address translation and the last point I want to cover though just briefly is oven really new shiny stuff so let's start with the OpenFlow. One of the nice things that is new in OpenVswitch 2.4 is bundling. Now we can do we can add, delete and modify flows using one command and if we specify the bundle option it creates OpenFlow bundle which means that all of those flow modifications have to happen atomically and together so if any one of those would fail all of those are not committed and not executed. Also if this is done then the changes appear automatically at once to all packets to all operations on the flow tables and so on so no more situations like when you are deleting flows and adding flows and packets keep coming in between and you are in a bit awkward situation that packets can match flow that you didn't intend to so this solved that. To make this easier to use the AddFlow and AddFlow syntax was enhanced now you can actually specify a keyword in front of the flow rule but to specify where you are deleting flow or modifying flow or adding a new flow so yeah since now new flow oh sorry since now all flows are deleted by AddFlow command but yeah of course the DelFlow and other other things that still works. There are many more features or many more new stuff with OpenFlow I don't want to cover everything most of such small things that are usable in particle scenarios so just one more and it's conjunctive match which allows a kind of matrix match like kind of match this packet only if the source address is in this particle list of IP address and destination address is in this another set of IP address at the same time right up to now this actually required to have like n times m flows setup which is quite inefficient so if you matched four source addresses and four destination addresses you would have to have 16 flows installed sucks so conjunctive match solve this solve this its usage is so bit weird but then what with OpenFlow is not weird the can it actually point I don't know I think it does yeah so what do you do is establish a rule with conjunction ID that if matched would do something like in this case it outputs the packet to to the first report and then you set up rules with a special conjunction action which first argument is the ID and second actually specifies which part of the of this set this matches so this would mean that and and the the actual action or the the conjunction it will only match if all of those parts are satisfied so yep let's move to Chananik that's more interesting so there were a few infrastructure enhancements the generic the generic enhancements the one that's quite a new or quite interesting although invisible to most users is conversion to lightweight tunnels inside kernel so up to now when you created say vxl interface in OBS it was some kind of weird internal interface if you run if config of our IPA you didn't see that tunnel interface was internal to OBS the not so nice thing about this was that was quite a lot of code application in the kernel because the BXLan kernel interface and BXLan code in the kernel module OBS sorry BXLan code in OpenVSwitch kernel module was really most many of code was was duplicated and that caused problems with implementing new features and so on so this was finally unified now when you create VXLan interface in OBS you see an actual kernel VXLan interface and the same for other tunnels it's still backwards compatible you don't have to worry about that OpenVSwitch is used exactly the same way as before so this went to kernel 4.3 and we'll be back ported to various distribution kernels we also got support for our user space tunneling over VXLan GNEV and GRE that's in OpenVSwitch 2.4 its usage is quite non-intuitive the setup of the DPDK tunneling is a bit hard but can be done and works so I spoke about GNEV GNEV I think the correct pronunciation is GNEV it stands for genetic okay networking something something I didn't write it down so I didn't remember so GNEV protocol is a protocol that's kind of specific to to OBS currently it's not much used outside of OBS it's actually designed by the OBS authors and it's really similar to VXLan but it can carry metadata so you can add quite a lot of metadata to headers which is really useful for some use cases and we get to that later so support for GNEV tunneling was added to OBS 2.4 but only the upcoming 2.5 release adds support for actually matching on the on the metadata and setting it and it's done using TLV type length value and it's really generic so using the new comment at TLVMap you can add actual or specify actual TLV attributes and then later set them using the set field action yeah that sets this value or adds this value to the GNEV header using this TLV so this class this type of this length and similar for other so this this rule actually adds two TLVs to a GNEV metadata area and the constructed encapsulated packet is sent to Vport too on Ingress we can match on metadata again as usual this is mask and this is the value so it can be masked making this more useful another thing and the new thing is tunneling over IPv6 up to now OBS did not support turning over IPv6 at all so this is new stuff again will be in upcoming 2.4 you also need the kernel 4.4 for that so that's mean that's this the current kernel the newest RIST one currently tunneling over IPv6 is supported for VXLan and GNEV and its usage is really similar to tunneling over IPv4 was actually one of the design goals so let's say that we create VXLan port and we specify that we will supply the source and destination address later using the actual open flow rules so this will be the OBS command to create the port this is the same no change here it's exactly the same as before and then we can create open flow rules that will actually do the tunneling and again it's really similar to IPv4 except we have this IPv6 keyword or IPv6 string so if we want to set the source address for tunneling we start that to turn IPv6 source variable or whatever the same for destination so it's really simple again on ingress we can match on these things as well so we match on IPv6 source address and can do the right thing direct the packet is appropriate or the second option again the same as with IPv4 this is even simple actually you may not specify the destination address using open flow rules you can just make it fixed by creating the interface so you just specify IPv6 address you're done nothing more so this is really simple there's also the order will also be support for IPv6 tunneling using user space data path for example the PDK this is going to be in either 2.5 or 2.6 OBS series it's not clear yet I don't know whether Tadeu has new info no 2.6 probably smaller actually well tunneling stuff I probably have to mention MPLS it's not so new it's exactly it went to kernel 3.19 but that's was actually after the last DEF CONF so yeah so it was it's kind of new feature in the last year anyway speaking about kernel data path only because that was supported even before for for user space data path and the example of usage is here so there's push MPLS action which push the MPLS header on front of the packet specify the ether type and then you can set fields set the MPLS label and other stuff and on ingress match that pop the MPLS header and so on so yeah again nothing nothing complex here but there's a lot of new stuff happening that's not yet merged that's is currently worked on one of these thing is NSH NSH is kind of weird stuff it's kind of similar to Genev in some kind or in some way it's kind of similar to MPLS in other way so the intention of NSH is to actually carry metadata between various switches over wire actually or even inside host in various format and the way this is done is quite often this is encapsulated in stuff like VXL and GPE or GRE and or other stuff in L3 mode which means that the tunnel does know or inside the tunnel inside the the packet in the headers there's no internet header so you take just IP packet without the internet header and encapsulate that inside VXL and GPE or GRE or whatever and then a possibly adding NSH header between VXL and GPE and the actual payload this means that now we're dealing with L3 tunnels no internet header or two headers but OBS is strictly Ethernet based so it expects that every packet has Ethernet header in front of it and it's really hardwired hardcoded in various places in OBS so this is limitation that obviously has to be lifted actually there are patches available for that so they have some issues so they are going to be recent and yeah they are not yet merged so it's likely they will go to OBS 2.6 or maybe even later it really depends on how well this goes when this is done really possible to really direct or to add more interfaces of more kinds to OBS bridge like right now you can add tap interface to OBS bridge with these patches you will be able to also attune or turn interface to OBS bridge or VXL and GPE and stuff like that so there will be new Posh most likely nothing is really certain at this point so some of these patches are not yet merged so there are likely to be two new actions push eth header and pop eth header action which will add the or remove the internet header the the first version of the patches actually pushed empty it's on the header meaning the source and destination MAC address was all all nulls or zeros and then you would use set field action to actually populate these fields also to ease switching between L3 and L2 ports added to the to the single bridge it's likely there will be some kind of implicit push and pop actions if you don't specify otherwise which will take care of this transparently so NSH I already talked about talk about that there are people really want that honestly I don't really understand why but people really do want that so this is something that will be added most most intently VXL and GPE there are patches that add VXL and GP to the kernel ready not yet merged currently in process of being reviewed and and being merged so the target is probably kernel 4.6 maybe later again you never know when you're submitting upstream and the the the earliest open-v-switch version this can go in is 2.6 because we need L3 support for this actually VXL and GP can operate in two modes L2 or L3 really this is something that needs to be chosen before or while creating the interface so either the internal hardware is excited or not this was done or this actually used lightweight tunnel infrastructure in kernel would not be able it would not be able to implement it otherwise so the effort of the conversion really pays off now so this is the this is how this will probably look like but maybe again will be maybe different so this is the syntax you see the only different differences that you specify different type an NSH will likely be implemented as new two new actions push NSH and pop NSH which will then push and pop NSH header more actions will be needed to actually support setting the payload of NSH and matching on that this is not yet clear how this will look like there are no patches that do that yet again something to be implemented it's quite likely that first we will there will be some limited support of NSH and will be extended in some later version of OBS this will be combined with those push eth and pop eth actions to support all those two combinations of NSH and the internet headers so yeah that's enough for tunneling I think we had enough tunneling so connection tracking that's the most cool features that can be to obvious two point or will come with OBS 2.5 you will need kernel 4.3 at least for that for this to work and this really adds connection tracking to OBS meaning you can do stateful fireboarding in OBS finally this is really important for things like OpenStack or OpenShift and Docker and stuff because now they will be able to do stateful fireboarding inside their integration bridge and they won't don't want they won't have to resort to various tricks as now like creating bridges with Linux bridges with two interfaces and using EB tables to do to connection tracking so this new code allows matching on connection state using open flow rules so you can match but to the particular connection or particular packet belongs to connection that is established already or is new or belongs to another another connection so called related for this to work OBS has to defragment or if defragment and defragment packets on ingress and refragment them again where they go out this is transparent you don't have to care about that this just happened so the the theory of the operation is that the packet can be in two states can be either untracked or tracked initially every packet packet is untracked and it become it becomes tracked when you execute CT action contract CT for contract or connection checking action on that packet it actually the CT action takes several parameters one of that is stable which cost the packet to be actually forked and to continue to the table is specified and also continue executing rules in the same table and at that new table that packet becomes tracked so from that point on you can match on those contract fields so untracked untracked packet does not have the contract fields populated so you don't know whether it's established or new or whatever so one packet is tracked there are two more states that are interesting and it's it can be uncommitted and committed when it's uncle when it's committed basically the state becomes new to contract and basically save the state you can set certain fields and also you commit that connection that's further packets in the same connection became established I will show the example there are different zones yeah because quite often you need to do the fragmentation and connection tracking different for different like VMs or different tenants so in this you cannot do that in the same space you cannot really mix traffic from different tenants this they kind of the same IP address so you could mix up the fragments this is something that cannot happen so you can specify actual zone zone is a number and that's kind of namespace for for connection tracking so that's independent for different zones you can also set mark or label that series custom number that you can store with the connection and later retrieve and measure that so it's like metadata stored in the connection connection table well this is an example state for firewall which allows new connections from port 1 to port 2 but only established connection the other way so we cannot initiate connection for from port 2 so let's look at this it's quite complex actually so we have table 0 we have rules so three rules they have different priorities the highest priority rule is this one matches on IP packets we yeah it's kind of bills and this is important so when the packet is not tracked it's unchecked then we execute this action we execute the contract the contact action and redirect the packet to table one we're operating in zone 2 but it's not so important in table one the packet is tracked now yeah so this again we have two rules and we have two rules one matches on new packets and one matches on packets that belong to an already established connection so maybe it's new we commit the packet and output it to port 2 and if it's established we just send it out yeah it can it's just shorter syntax it's the same see and I don't think so I wanted this to be shorter so yeah and on the other on the other other way which I think this is not complete so you would you would actually have to have this more more complex if you really want would like to for this to work so this is really just just a part of the configurable part of the rules but yep so if we got the packet from the other direction from port 2 to port 1 again table 0 yeah we match this rule again go to table one but now in port is to we go in the other way and here if the if the state is new we drop the packet is established we send it out to port one so yeah that's a simple state for firewall it doesn't deal with things like ICMP and stuff like that I said it's not really complete but yeah net network of this translation this is another thing that's that will really help open stack and docker open-shift and all those guys because that will allow to do networking network of this translation inside OBS again using open flow rules it's implemented it will be in OBS 2.6 so something like you know for months ahead or like that and in kernel 4.6 so we will have we will have we will have to wait even for the kernel with the support a bit this is implemented in actually inside the contract action so there is a new sub action sub action of the of the city action which do the net so this is highly tied to contract it's actually highly configurable you can do you can do snet dnet so you can specify IP address ranges port ranges and do other cool stuff so this is example of of snet the the syntax is not yet final it may change so don't take this syntax for granted so again we have we have this action contract we do we do commit I have commit twice here why okay so it is definitely not the final syntax no just one commit is enough that's actually it's this type of so we commit and we execute this sub action specifying that we want the source address to be replaced by an address from this range yeah so there probably will be different rules so how to to select just the the the particle is from the range or it can be random whatever whatever you need yep so that's basically it on the from the other side yeah from then from the port 2 we need to reverse the net so translate the address back to the address according to net table and that's done just by specifying not sub action without any any parameters yep so the way this is done actually is using contract zones so if you have multiple tenants and you want to net each other it's two different addresses use different zone in the in the city action yeah so that's that's it it's not your name spaces are currently spaces but this is what we really want this contract zones there's no writing this is switching this switch so we'll specify flows you insert net action somewhere in the flows and that's it you don't do any routing that's just if you configure so yeah so the question is if it happens before routing so it really depends on we configure if you configure the open we switch in the way that you have an internal internal port that goes somewhere and it's rotated yeah of course it happens before it goes out that port it's really up to you it's open flow you can space you can program it whatever we like an example of the net of course it's really similar there's nothing nothing interesting there you match on the particle IP address and translate it to to another one and on the way back you just specify net and that's it happens magically only probably an understanding maybe harness yep one of the one of the so okay so so the net net will be really interesting thing in in 2.6 with the upcoming 2.5 there there's another really new thing that's called oven open virtual network and that's resides in inside OBS project but it's kind of high level or higher than OBS it's an interface between so-called so-called cloud management systems like open stack and on open we switch and it does it takes the logical logical view of the network as those cloud management systems have yeah like open stack view of the network for logical network and 10 slides days to actual open flow rules on actual nodes yeah so basically this is some kind of generic code that will do the translation from the from the virtual networks to the low level open flow rules and profile code and control flow configuration so that makes you'll make life easier I guess for a lot of projects and the tariff operation is that there is a cloud management system plug-in that actually communicates with so so-called northbound database and through north north demon in this communicates with sound main database which communicates with OBS control over open open controls on individual nodes and during this chain the rules are translated back and forth so everything is nice and happy I don't really have time to go through that in details interesting thing about this or think word to note is that through each packet that travels the logical network has metadata appended through the whole through the throughout its whole life and its whole travels of the network so that means that to use all the features that are needed we need a protocol tonic protocol that can carry those metadata between hosts so this is why oven is based on gene if you can use the excellent to but you lose some features and there are some not so trivial not so trivial things that are limitations like you can have only one endpoint for each VXL and so so let's not like going to details there's a bunch of other features that I won't cover can either them like DP DK V host support in OBS 2.4 that's pits actually speeds up handing of the packets from OBS to VMs you no longer have to go through kernel you can directly to QEMU since 2.5 even with multi queue for V host net there is more QoS support more Q Linux Q disk support it you can set up there's Mac Mac flooding mitigation implemented multicast snooping MLD bash command line completion which is very nice finally 2.4 and so on so I'm almost out of time we have like two minutes for questions I think yeah question please so the the question was that net filter on has the concept of related connections and how this how can this be expressed in in contract in OBS so that's quite easy you see those flags here to check new established so there's flag court RL R EL so we just use that and that's it good question sorry another question yeah for IPv6 tunnel endpoints that appeared here that kernel 4.4 is required is is that the case yeah so it's kind of 4.4 it it has to put that's for for current data path obviously yes for user space data part obviously you don't you don't care about the kernel support but it will be in a canal to in in OBS 2.6 only probably probably maybe it will make 2.5 but it's not likely you want this thank you slightly tangentially but do you know what happened to contract D does this still around is it dead do people care about it or contract D I have no idea that's probably question more to net filter developers you want to answer so I don't really understand the question so contract D is basically for two things so one is for replication to multiple firewalls for redundancy and the other one is to do experimental protocol helpers in user space but I don't think anyone ever uses that except the developers so it's just about replication and should just work actually because as far as I've seen the patches and I didn't see anything that what interfere with contract D and the way it works so I'm actually not sure what was something like that could be implementing using OBS controller maybe not sure probably not not not not not now would have we would need to have some kind of notifications about new connections which I don't think it's there yet I mean there's probably no no protocol to pass this information from OBS to open flow control right now not sure okay so thank you EG for your presentation


The coronavirus reached South America later than other regions, but it now concentrates 87% of all cases in Latin America. We have recently launched a strategic preparedness and response plan seeking more than $21 million to alleviate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the most vulnerable migrants and house communities in South America. Restricted human mobility measures such as lockdowns and closure of borders have caused thousands of migrants to lose their jobs, causing negative effects on their incomes and remittances, especially in informal settlements. The COVID-19 pandemic is affected everyone, but migrants, especially those in an irregular situation, are facing a high risk of being left behind. Funding is thus urgently needed, especially in South America, a region already affected by the outflow of refugees and migrants from Venezuela. We are grateful to our donors, like the U.S. government, which recently contributed $2.7 million to our regional plan. Yet much more resources are needed to scale up our COVID-19 response. And this is the only way we can address the immediate needs of vulnerable migrants and house communities in South America. We call for urgent support from the entire donor community. We are all in this together.


And a group has taken this pleasure over land-grabbing to the streets of Binin City. Members of the group known as the Concerned Citizens of Edou marched through the streets of the city, accusing some community leaders of illegal encroachment of people's properties. They also say the leaders exploit developers and they're calling for the implementation of the state's anti-land-grabbing law. The deputy governor of Edou State was on hand to address the group. Why not do this to my father? They're not telling me that I should be wrong. Please, we are pleading on behalf of you all to tell our insurgency about circuit. We know that it's a wisdom that should come to our rescue. Don't landmatter the people of this country. I don't state I follow by land. Land, do you want me to say I'm in here and step by the developer? And then suddenly, all right, I did my side. Why don't you come here? You better come. You said I'd be vile to all right.  I did that. You said I'd stop all, but I stopped. I said, what did that happen? I don't come here to say to now. I don't come here to say to now. I don't pay everything. You said no. You said no. You come, all right. All right, give me four. Now I'm gritting. All right, now me. You said it would be me. It would be me. My car has my concern. Now I come here. It has my concern. I said, go. Before I know, you don't come here. I don't come here to explain. I don't explain. It's a me. It's a me. It's a used by Obaseki. Take the bus to Obaseki. It's because when you go in my house, it's not Obaseki put. It's not. For that reason, I want Obaseki, a governor. I don't come here to say to now. I don't come here to say to now. For that reason, I have created a land for me to protest against land grabbing, against intimidation, against extortion of developers. Exhibited by some scrupulous chief priests that are supposed to be presiding over the Jews. Some are no-guess, some are no-guess, some are no-guess. They sell land to more than one, a plot of land to more than one person.  This kind of issue is frustrating people from developing communities in those states. A lot of people prefer to travel to Ikorodu. A lot of people buy land in Ikorodu. A lot of them want to protect their land. The Obaseki told them that it means for this law. And I remember when we banned C.D., Obaseki also endorsed it. So that person that said Obaseki told him, he said, the person is lying, Obaseki sent him. Obaseki said, Obaseki sent him. So you don't bring Obaseki into it. Obaseki supported C.D. He didn't make progress. He also supported C.D. So Obaseki sent him. He's on his own. So I can assure you that if you don't make progress, you will also be prosecuted. Listen, nobody, what would that prosecutor know? Nobody should form a deputy government. It's not only in the state. It's not only here. Even in our chain, in all of this epoma, in all the assailants, we have the data. We are going to deal with univeristy.


Hi everyone, Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com coming at you with another case of 2020 Panini Mosaic Football Blaster Edition. Very nice. We're already at Pick Your Team 22. Everyone knows how this works by now, giving away the Bengals. So let's get everybody's names alphabetized here. So if you bought at least two teams, one entry, four teams, two entries for the Bengals, so on and so forth. Drew got three teams, two, the two teams are eligible right there, so still one entry though. Almedia with two, that's one entry. Daniel with six, that's three entries. EA with two, that's an entry. EK with four, that's two entries. Jaehoon with two teams, that's an entry. Jarell with two teams, that's an entry. Josh Lucas two teams, that's an entry. Karyn two teams, that's an entry. Scott two teams, one entry. Stephen Susan got three teams, two of those are eligible, which still counts as one entry. All it takes is one. So Stephen, Scott, Karyn, Josh, Jarell, Jaehoon, Eric, EA, Daniel, D, Almedia, and Andrew Stevens. All right, excellent. Just wanted to double check that. Make sure I didn't miss anybody. Oh, that was from a previous break, let me clear that away. Let's clear that away as well. All right, and let's roll it, let's randomize it 12 times. Name on top after 12 gets the bangles in this break. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, and one more, 12th and final time. Name on top after 12, EA Sports, it's in the game. EA with the bangles after 12. Let's see what this case has for you, EA. All right, so let's print, baby, print and rip. Good luck. There's that blaster case right there, mosaic blaster. All right, so there's five boxes here, five boxes there, 15, and a total of 20. You can see all the box on the top camera as well. A very big thank you to all of these lovely people for getting into the action once again. Here's the list. Hot off the presses. Thanks for spending a bit of your Friday night with us, too. I appreciate that. There you go, yeah. Jay's in the house with my Raiders. Good luck. All right, let's open a handful of these boxes at a time. Thanks, everyone. I've got my Dodgers up three nothing in the World Series Game 3. It's still very early in the game, the bottom of the third. All right, good luck, everybody. A lot of football action is going to be happening.  I was worried that they were going to go in to face that front seven of Tampa Bay with a brand new offensive line. Thankfully, no. I don't think that's going to be the case. I think so, but I mean, they've played together for a while, so I'm not concerned about that. They've got a veteran's rest day, you know what I mean? Rest week. I was just nervous to face Indomican Sioux and Jason Pierre-Paul with a bit like third stringers. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it's going to be a bit nice double play. Yeah, Patrick, if you look at the schedule, I earmarked about an hour for this break. It's actually about 40 minutes, 35, 40 minutes, but then by the time I kind of put everything away and print out labels and all that sort of stuff, this does take a minute or two. Unless Nick helps, then this becomes a 30 minute break. It's really just a lot of packs, not a lot of cards, but just a lot of packs.  Feed the break monster. I must break. All right, so you can see on the Nick cam above your head, got all the boxes right there, but now it's not going to be a long break, Patrick. How many times do they have to redo this? No, this is, uh, what should we call it, the right stuff. They already did a movie of this a while ago that was pretty, uh, pretty, uh, like, well received based off a book about the original Apollo missions, right, how they faked it. Maybe that's what it is. They're just continuing this narrative to try to keep us from thinking that I get it now. These people just leave their dog, by the way. In the car? No, no, no.  I don't know if there's a fence around there.  Like toothbrush and shoes. Well, there's a, there's a, there's a dog door, but maybe he's smart enough not to run to the street, I guess. Oh yeah, those are terrible. Yeah, that hurts the dog. Electricity. Yeah, but it's like, isn't it like training? Yeah. The little zap. Yeah, maybe that dog doesn't run to the street. All right. Those are garbage. Do you want to pack something? I'll open one. No, you got to do all of them. You got to do either of them all or, I'll do all of them. And an NFL debut to a Tagovaiola. Okay. That'll be Renton with the Dolphins. Hot Mike, man. Hot Mike, Kevin. Don't give away our secrets. Why don't you give them how much we paid for them? Yeah. Yeah.  What the Picket Express Series 4 is. Wow. Working on that in the back. I'm learning. I was like, you got a lot to learn. You got a lot to learn. And then I was like, yeah, there's one trainless whenever Casey is like, what's a trainless? Oh, the thing that Joe does all the time, man. Yeah, but why are you doing it? I mean, it's not the big trainless. It just fires people up, man. Tua making his start after the buy. And I was like, it's out of five or less. And then he was like, well, what if it's like a Mike Trout auto out of 10? I was like, it doesn't get the trainless. Yeah. It's based on the rarity, the number, not the, not the player. Otherwise, you can split hairs on everybody. I mean, Mike Trout probably deserves a trainless. Yeah. The player could be Eric. I was going to be like, oh, we got to give a trainless to everybody now. Oh, I like Juju Smith's juicer. Why not give him a train whistle, you know? Bill Bates. I don't like his attitude. Dallas Cowboys. Got a lot to learn, Kevin. I'm still in single A here at Jasper's. And then I guess he's also going to get any hip-raid merch. Oh, boy. No, that wasn't me. Who was it then? Nick. Oh, you're ratting people out now? It's a lot to learn, Kevin. Yeah. Don't rat anybody out. Yeah. But he kind of runs things around here. He can rat people out. No, that's called Thomas. Like, I guess... Oh, Thomas. We're supposed to give one to Kevin? Wow. He's still in the ring today. Oh, listen. Thomas busted his foot. He's allowed. It's a lot of little extra things. You get injured, Kevin. We'll take care of you. Oh, really? Yeah.  Let's give him some extra stuff. Let's give him the next U-line gift. There's James Morgan. There's U-line gift. There's Indianapolis colds, Daniel with the Michael Kinn and James. Do you get a fish box cutter? Yeah. I mean... Or like a Dodger's T-shirt or something like that. Your Dodger's shirt? Yeah. Big Dodger's shirt. Big Dodger's shirt. Are you still going to... I'm actually going to the road series. Are you going to Texas? Yes, sir. Tomorrow. Nice. I'll send you pictures, Jeff. Send me pics. And some merchandise. Good job. Good job. Wow. I got to keep this place running, Nick. You got Josh Lucas, Washington. James, Andrew.  What are you talking about, Joe? You can go all the way there. Yeah. Joe made excuses that he couldn't go with me. I invited him, too. Wow. I'm afraid of COVID. I can't get sick. Otherwise, this place goes down the drain. And the next... And then Kevin... And then Kevin has nothing to soar. And if Kevin has nothing to soar, we've got to let him go. Sorry. You guys went to Dallas and Joe got COVID. Justin Herbert. Chargers, Daniel. There you go. Justin Herbert, Green. Jaylen Régor. When's he coming back, Nick? Maybe. A few weeks. This is a group break. Yeah. Full case. Full 20 boxes. D-Almedia with the Iggles. The fly eagles fly. Ooh. Down the line. Nice job, Peterson. Run, Belly. Bell for Belly. Second. Yeah, how did he not get to second? Why did Bellinger not... Bellinger's got wheels. Why didn't he run around it? Two. Right across the street from there. Four. Here? No, from global life. Yeah, I'll go. I'm being serious. Oh, I was going to ask you about hitting up on everything. There's a Walmart right across the way. You know where all the Walmart's are. Nick's got a map of Walmart in his head. I don't know where that is. Asking. For lucky enough to even find anything there. Um... No, we did the Million Card Rip Party from live from Arlington, Texas. From what life? No, from the Dallas Capital City. And it's right next to each other. There's also like a little 7-Eleven right in the parking lot. It's global life. Just give me a map and tell me what it is. We went to this barbecue place. Do you know what it is? Did I get a water burger? Did you? Oh, you did. Justin Jefferson. Going to Jaehoon Kim. The chicken tender strip sandwich. A bun? That water burger? Yeah, it's so good. Look at that small ball happening out there. It's not a water sandwich. That's quite a weird scene. I don't know, it's kind of funny. We got some fuzz back here for some reason. You'll regret it if you don't get the chicken tender. I got the burger and I was satisfied. So you already had the burger. Oh, yeah, try something new then. I'm not about trying something new. Have you got a Sonic before? There's Clyde Everdee Lair for the Chiefs Daniel. Have you ever had the pool water drink? Or the ocean water or whatever? I don't like salt. I don't see too much salt in my drinks. No, I get the hot fudge sundae. I had smoothie. No, I like their sherry drinks. Oh, we got some Allen Robinson, fluorescent orange, 20 out of 25. Da Bears, Eric K. Look at that one. Nice, these fluorescent oranges are really nice. Clyde Everdee Lair base. Got trio of Broncos there. Daniel with the Chiefs. There's an NFL debut Joe Burrow for EA. Joe, you think if the Dodgers win this year? Uh-huh.  That'd be fine. Yeah, absolutely. Only if you win it, it's real. Isn't this one harder? I mean, yeah. It's way easier. 16 teams got in. They had to play an extra round though. That is kind of tough. Less time to. And all those games in a row, they played like seven games in a row. They lose game two and then they have to go to the top for three. It's a way different series. It's like neutral. That's kind of weird too. I don't know why they allowed the Dodgers to stay there for like three weeks. It's like a home field now for them. They know all the angles and everything now. I wish the World Series could put in like a third neutral area. I thought that was a weird move by Major League Baseball. Yeah, the World Series should have been a new location. Right? I guess so. That's what the MLB wants them. They basically beg for it. The MLB has basically begged the Dodgers to win like a lot of six years than they have been able to. It's terrible. Justin Herbert, Green, Daniel with the Chargers. They get salary tax whatever. I don't know if they got any of that. They get luxury tax bonuses. They get it discounted. They also pay their players on the side with endorsements. Wow. Which is expressly illegal according to all the contract. All the contract. And then you have Magic Johnson tampering all the time. Nice. Pokes it through. Good hitting. There's Devin Duvernay. Ravens. Andrew Stevens. AJ Terrell. Eric Kay. I said I could do it. I don't know, but you only want to do like one pack. You said I'll do one pack. I said I'll do the rest. I don't know if I heard that. I heard I'll do one box, I think. And then Nick said it's either... I said one pack and he's like do it all. Yeah, exactly. Kevin, if you really wanted to do it you would have just pushed Nick aside and started ripping open packs, but that level of commitment was just not there. We were testing you. We were testing you. You're like three feet away from me. And Karen with Keeshawn Vaughn. You would have been bodyguard earlier today. Was that just unannounced? I was... To say I was shocked, I was shocked. He's such a... The most shocking thing to happen in the last few years. Andrew Luck retired. Coby Bryant. He's probably listening right now. NFL debut Green, Cam Acres Cam Green Acres for Stephen Susan. I saw that. Jeff Okuta. Chase Young NFL debut Silver. Sub Logan. I've never heard that. Sub Logan. I couldn't even see it. He called me something else. I can't say it. That's Nick Foles' nickname. Nick Foles' nickname. Off the bag. He got him out. Best Korean baseball player of all time. Of course he did. He tagged him. SG Man. In the face. In the face. In the face. Yeah, Jin Man Choi. Young Ho Kong. And Shin Soo Choo. The best Korean player. Young Ho. Young Ho Koo. Yeah, he's Korean. Now, Heinz Ward is the best Korean football player. I don't know. I think Shin Soo Choo might be better than Hyun Jin Roo. Shin Soo Choo is getting paid $100 million to sell the bench. Yeah, he's looking at his OPS. Is it good? It's really good. Or maybe not his OPS, but his on-base percentage is good. His OVP. And he's on a lot of bases, doesn't he? No, he just walks a lot. He walks a lot. He doesn't stick to his business. Yeah, he's not selling bases. Why do you guys say that? He's not even Korean. If you look at the way he's built, it doesn't strike you as a base dealer. I thought he was skinny and kind of live on. No, he's kind of a chunky dude. He's not like... He's not G-Man Choi chunky, but he's just kind of like a stock. Am I thinking of somebody else?  There's Joe Burrow base. But when he was on the reds, the blue. He was always on the Rangers, I thought. Shin Soo Choo on the reds? Look up Shin Soo Choo's weight. No, he is. I didn't realize he was so bad. He's so bad. You're talking about... He's 5'11", 205. He's tiny. Oh, the Cleveland.  Oh, he was a Cleveland for a while. He was with the Reds. You remember his Reds year? Give us the stolen base numbers. Stolen base numbers? Oh, I guess... I guess he did use to steal bases. But now he's like 37. Joe, you even know you're Korean baseball players? Not in Texas. Give me Channel Park. He's got 150 stolen bases for you. That's a lot. I didn't realize he stole that many bases. Stolen bases. I'm a fancy baseball player. Okay, but now he has six. Yeah, fast, drop key. Six is a lot. Six is kind of a lot. He's 37. He's awesome. You guys know what I'm calling. Wait, wait. I didn't call him ugly. I said he was on the Reds. I apologize. You got some wheels on you. Got some wheels. Another Justin Herber for Daniel and the Bolts. Big thanks to Nick for ripping open those boxes. Rank is much faster now. I'm going to have it clocked in under 30 minutes. Nice. Here's the final three boxes. Good luck, everybody. This was Picker Team 22. Bottom of the fourth. There's Antonio Gibson. Don't say it, Kevin. I know you saw that stat. Did they say it? Oh boy, come on, those guys. Disrespectful. Disrespectful of the game. Heritage. Baseball tradition. Imagine if you were doing something special like that. And then someone's, Thomas started talking to you about it and you'd be like, get away from me, dude. Yes, exactly. Green to Miami, Brent and Young. Brent with the Dolphins. Tom Brady, an NFL debut. Justin Herber, Daniel with a few Justin old Herbies there. Justin there, all right. That out of there. There you go. Chase Claypool. Blings them excellent football. Ooh, and we got ourselves a Genesis. TD Terrell Davis. This guy would give me nightmares as a Raiders fan. That's for Daniel. Daniel Festvin and the Genesis Terrell Davis. Very, very short printed card right there. Vaughn Miller also going to you. Daniel Festvin and the Genesis. Vaughn Miller also going to you. And that's it, ladies and gentlemen. Pretty nice break. Overall, that was Picker Team 22. We got some of these rookie quarterbacks which was nice. Got the Hilaire. Got some nice autographs, some good stuff in this blasterer case. I'm Joe for jaspyscasebreaks.com. We'll see you next time for the next break. Bye-bye.


Komishional police in Riva State, Ibuka Friday, met kandidates and leaders of the various political parties in the state over peaceful and non-violent conduct of campaigns as preparations for elections begin in the state. The report. CP Ibuka Artistake Holders' meeting held in Potakot at the officers' mess said that men and officers of the Riva State Police Command will ensure that they are not partisan and biased in their conduct during the campaigns and general elections but will not also condone disorderly conduct from members of the political parties in the state. The Administrative Secretary of the Independent Electoral Commission, Ainec, in Riva State, Richa Al Braba, decried the low collection of PVCs in the state. Please permit me to say that the collection of PVCs is very, very low, probably the parties are not doing their best for Ainec, we've been trying our best. The governorship candidate of the Accord Party, Dumululu Briggs, commanded the police for the meeting while some other political parties in the state accused the major parties of intimidation and threat. The security agencies responsible for ensuring that everything happens according to the law will do their job, will be equipped to do their job and they will have to find the courage to do their job without fear or fear and give everybody, all the political parties, a sense of ownership of this process. Please I want to appeal that the leaders and the Huda West should be talking about the channel of the party, the candidates of the representatives. Since I am a man of 30, I have been in a series of friends here and there. I wanted to value the legacy of those put in practice. I don't know how to die, I don't want anybody to die in a place. Anyone who understands the importance of peace in river state knows that peace means development and we must begin to attract all the investors that have left river state over the years and that is why this is important, our election must be peaceful. The police boss in the state advises politicians to study the electoral act and abide by it for all to achieve a peaceful electioneering process.
