Ladies and gentlemen welcome back wheel of mud episode. I don't remember you'll see in the title. Okay, so last episode roller coaster I wanted to kill myself Scariest episode I've probably ever done of wheel of mud. We took the fattest ally probably ever taken on this channel That was not fun, and then we took a W. So I got to add Joe Staley and TJ Y to the team. I did lose out on a legend Paul Kraus though So yeah, I kind of want to cry it's like one of my favorite players in this game The other thing is for some reason maybe that's why I lost the first game boys for some reason I forgot to put Malcolm Smith in I just accidentally like took them out and tried to put them back in so he's back on the tee And since last episode we got all the crazy out of position stuff So I've given myself away on the wheel to earn any out of position player now You guys had this brilliant idea. There is a Bo Jackson spin on the wheel It says Bo Jackson right but then I have an oppositions wheel which determines which Bo Jackson I get So I could get literally puncture Bo Jackson who I would never use but at the same time I could get like Tight end Bo Jackson. That would be amazing for this team wide receiver middle linebacker Any of those things would be awesome. So that's dope I also have a way to get the limited out of positions like Randy Moss Sean Taylor stuff like that I have a way to get the bosses like the Danny and Talmudson Mike Mick It's gonna be awesome. We just got to get it on the wheel and there's a chance of wanting to get today I also left my computer my house because it's winter break and it's Christmas and stuff I brought everything home. So this is all I have is the ratchet. So I'm gonna hold the thing next to my face It's gonna be super lame, but I'm sorry. That's all we have for today.  We have two spins as you should know I can't even see it. So you guys are gonna see it before I see it. I don't know what that's gonna be Hopefully something good. It's coming down. I think it just finished ten pop Ten propax is right now. Oh my god. I knew it ten propax is that close? To giving me an out-of-position player, but we get ten propax which aren't even propax anymore They're called gold player packs. There's a chance.  Oh, this is a first limited. I've ever pulled this whole year 275th Randy moss people. Holy That gets to go on the team if I win.  I have to win now Okay, the rest of these geez they do not matter All right, so that was it the rest of those propax had literally nothing in them, but I pulled Randy Moss So now we have Mel Ballant 93 legend and Randy Moss 93 cornerback Okay, well that was probably the greatest spin of all time and we still got another spin to start this episode off That's ridiculous Which has happened. I don't genuinely don't care what I get on this spin right now And we get a legend upgrade first ten on the auction house Okay, so here's how legend upgrade works So I'm just gonna click the legend promo and there's gonna be ten legends that come up It could be literally like all crappy 82 legends, but there could also be full legends So I get to pick out of any of those in the first ten So when I go into auction here and I click on legends, it's gonna pop up ten players I get to pick amongst any of the ten could be literally all crappy legends could be all 94s That's actually a really good spin now that I say it out loud I didn't realize how good that spin was when I put out there. That's kind of too good.  There's 190 up there There's a 92 Ronnie lot and a 94 at two tall Jones. Okay, so I get to pick one of the legends That's on this board. I'm taking at two tall Jones. Hopefully he'll make some place for me on the edge That's a really really good card too. All right We get the six foot nine and two tall Jones added to do which added a 94 and a 93 All right, I really like what we're rocking with now at two tall Jones is up to a 95 in Randy Moss We have to win this game. I am not getting cheese. I don't care if I'm down 50 I'm coming back and I'm winning by 20 and I just broke something Okay, the team I'm playing is not like incredibly overpowered He just got 90s and there is a new 95 on my top three I don't think I have ever seen this defensive formation, but it looks like Fourth and nine, please pin this we got it. We got it. All right Inside zone nothing The brand new Randy Moss that we literally just got First time he gets anywhere near the ball is a pick six. No, I'm not even gonna take that one It's not going there. He's throwing deep right into my zone Ronnie lot What a beast I'm stuck on the one yard line. He basically just punted it 40 yards That's actually really unfortunate the one yard line Ronnie lot. Why don't you just swipe? Why did you hit the ball like play action? I Don't think you'll be able to get there.  You know what I mean. Oh, that's a QB scream I know what you're trying to do cam and that's a fumble for a fumble you five fumble.  You never know. Oh, no He's got it. He's caught it. Wait. Oh my god. I could almost just got a safety. Please don't return this He stepped out. Oh my god. He could have returned that Okay, this guy has a very shat. What? What's no, no No, no, and that's my silver strong safety and he can't catch him.  Oh my god He jumped it and I turn the ball over. Oh my god. I am I'm the verge of losing this game All right, let's see if he's going bench swap again Doesn't something different melt blunt That's what I need.  Oh, I want to return this come on come on Ronnie lot hitting scenes See now we're just gonna play really ballsy and probably throw the game away again. That's what I always do Who's gonna get this? I'm throwing it very soon. Okay. Yeah, see this is what I do this bench swap probably Oh, it's a little different. I know pretty much the same thing. What was that? Dude melt blunt He grabbed it He like fake driving yet Same play because I don't think he's gotten any successful pass plays and yep. There's the run play. Oh my god I see why do I not just take my wins?     I gave cushion my blitzers. Yeah right here. Come on throw it to me son Tell me that's a safety. Oh my god. He's on the one yard line Fourth and 29, please do not go for this dude.  I'm back to the one you're kidding me Big dog.   This doesn't count as a rage quit spin though Oh, is he gonna grief me?  That's what he's doing All right, I want this last second touchdown right here throw the bomb. That's pick darn it. I didn't get my 40 points. I didn't get up All right, that is gonna be the game. I'm excited to see the stat line. Yeah, dude We stepped it up. We came to play in the fourth quarter 16 points in the fourth I beat him in literally every category average yards for play rushing yards passing yards Obviously score and six take away. All right guys. That's gonna be it for now That was an intense game of wheeling but we get to hang out to Randy Moss and Ed too tall. That's about it for now guys Thanks for watching as always take care


Once again, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls and children of all ages, you are now tuned into the Investor's Show as always. This is Grace's host, the Prince of Investing, Prince Dax, coming to you guys and girls' lab all the way from the beautiful city and state of Denver, Colorado via the beautiful city and state of Honolulu, Hawaii. Don't forget to do that, like, subscribe, comment, and share button. And as always, I don't have a lot of time, and I definitely, you guys and girls don't have a lot of time, so we're gonna jump straight into it. So the first thing that we wanna do and bring up to you guys and girls is we talked about the day topic is gonna be the Prince of Investment. We're gonna be talking about President Biden. It's official, President Biden has one day election, he has one day to go to college and he's due to take over the presidency come January during his inauguration. Now to think about it, we wanna talk about stocks to watch under President Biden.  Being behind the curve is waiting to the market hits an all time high. Now you wanna invest in December versus March when we hit the fastest stock drop of ever, of all times nobody wanted to invest. So we wanna be in front of the curve to see what is coming next. So let's talk about, so in this episode we're gonna talk about President Biden's beliefs and then we're gonna talk about President, how they affect the economy with their beliefs and then we're gonna get into some sectors to watch. Then we're gonna talk about some stocks to watch and then inside of those stocks to watch I'm gonna give my, what I'm looking for for companies and things like that or whatnot or whatever the case can be. Something that can help you out. So y'all stay tuned, we have a great conversation on what's to come next. All right, so the first thing is President Biden, his belief is he wants us to, he wants us to move forward. He wants us to build infrastructure, build, replace our roads, build new, we see, we wanna rebuild the roads infrastructure, right? Also he believes in pushing the envelope and getting us away from oil and using more things like green energy, things like solar panels and electronic vehicles and things like that.  So renewable energy is big, what he's big on and he also is big on rebuilding our infrastructure, giving us those new roads, building new buildings, things like that. The number three thing which is right now, dominating the headlines of what's got us all into this is healthcare, always talking about who's gonna do healthcare, what's gonna do healthcare, having healthcare for the elderly, think about it, the baby boomers are getting older and older and older and the baby boomers are moving to things like assist in living, they need more medication. So he's talking about re-energizing healthcare. So with that being said, ladies and gentlemen, that kind of leads it to what sectors we're gonna look at but we have to look at why, how does the president affect the economy, right, with his policies? So for prime example, we have a great election coming up here for Congress, which is more important. We already know the house is already majority Democrat. The president is Democrat, but now you have Republicans that's in the Senate. So we have a big Senate vote that's coming up here in January, which I think your Republican remains Senate strong, but if it does flip to Democrat, that means that President Biden can get his policies by quick and faster without having to stumble through the Senate. But even when if the Senate remains, he's still gonna have major influences. He's the president and he does have the house. He's gonna have a major influence in being able to push different policies that he wants to be seen. Now with this being said, it comes down to money, policies and funding. So policies and funding is what politicians do, they affect policies and different types of policies as we saw what happened with Uber, the government came out and said, hey, you know what? You must now classify your contractors as workers. That itself would have ruined Uber, not good for Uber at all. But in the reverse way, look what President Trump did and I think President Biden, not President Biden, but President Obama may have started it, but we have a tax break for renewable energy. So they signed into law.  So that's the number one way the government can affect, can write policies to be able to give tax breaks to people that buy your product. Hey, if you turn green, you get a tax break. If you're building infrastructure for the federal government, you can get a tax break. You can get what they like to call tax credit. Remember everybody said, why did President Trump only pay $700 in taxes? Because he received a lot of tax credits to build certain infrastructures. I won't say all of them. I don't wanna go deep into that, but I'm just speaking of how it works. For prime example, I'm a politician. I want a bar to come to my city or I want to re-energize my city. I'm to incentivize people to move to my city. I may give them a tax credit on local taxes. I may give them a tax credit on the water. Like, hey, if you use water in my city, the city controls water, the city controls local taxes.  So local government does it all the way to the federal side. But on the federal side, those are huge tax breaks. So for prime example, in renewable energy, if you get a green energy car, you can get a tax break.  Also, they could say, hey, for infrastructure, if the government can start now putting out contracts, say, hey, we want to put $10 billion into rebuilding Washington, D.C., and they can do that rather easy by saying, hey, we're gonna issue a government contract to a company that can help build the infrastructure, whatever the case may be. So now companies can go on and work for the government to help build the infrastructure, whatnot. So right now infrastructure stocks are very big. So we're talking about President Biden, how his policies can affect the economy. That's why it's so important, and this can help you get in front of the ball. So since we know he's big on infrastructure, renewable energy, and healthcare, and things like that, and we know we have a bunch of baby boomers that are getting older, it would be, it would behoove us to do what? It would behoove us to look at the infrastructure sector, which is consumer material, no, construction materials. So let's look at the construction materials sector. Also, let's look at the renewable energy, and let's look at healthcare. So the sectors we're gonna zoom in on are construction material, consumer, renewable energy, and also healthcare, right? So now when we break those down, now we know the sectors. Now we said, well, Prince, this is a huge sector. There are hundreds of stocks there, whatever companies or whatever, how do we find a company to invest in? Now there are a million ways you can do it. There are a million different type of ratios, but I'm gonna give you five little simple things that you can start with when analyzing. Number one, I'm gonna look at the fundamentals of the company. Knowing the fundamentals of the companies will help me sleep at night. So if I know a company has $1 billion in cash, and they only have $100,000 worth of debt, I can sleep a little bit easier at night versus a company that has $1 billion in cash and $10 billion in debt, that's current. That's number one way, looking at those total current assets, not having to work in capital, right? So for prime example, so what I'm gonna look at, I want the company to be profitable. I want to be profitable. Number one, you gotta be profitable because in this entire sector, there are plenty of companies that are profitable in infrastructure. There's plenty of money in the renewable energy sector that's already profitable, and there are plenty of healthcare companies that are already profitable. So if you're not profitable in the space, why aren't you profitable when all your brothers and sisters are profitable? And I like companies that are turning profits because when you're returning profits, that can increase your retained earnings. And the more money that you retain as retained earnings, that can be a great indicator of expansion in the future. So I want to see those profitability coming in. I want to see that retained earnings, retaining higher and higher and higher to be able to expand into the future. So that's not the only thing, but that's why profitability is so important. Number two, the debt to equity ratio, a debt to cash. How much money do you have on hand in total current assets are in cash? How much total, what's the total liabilities you have?  So if you have a high amount of cash that's coming in, but then you also have a high amount or even higher amount of debt that's going out, that affects your retained earnings. Let's walk through it. I make a million dollars a year, but then again, I spend $900,000 to live my life. That means I'm only walking away with $100,000 and retained earnings every year versus somebody else who makes a million dollars a year. Somebody else can make $500,000 a year and only spend $100,000 and $100,000 or $100,000. And guess what? They have $400,000 left over versus the other company only had $100,000, right? So you get that.  And that's what you can tell by looking at the current liabilities and the long-term liabilities as well. And you relate that to cash. So people are looking at return on assets. People love to look at working capital, which is total current assets versus total liabilities. So that's one thing, debt-to-equity ratio. How much cash do you have? How much debt do you have as well? I wanna see that ratio be a little on the lower end to debt-to-equity. Now you gotta worry about the next thing. Now if you have great fundamentals, there are plenty companies out there with great fundamentals, but they just don't have that magic to move. It's a company movement. For prime example, everybody knows Coca-Cola is a great business. It's a great company. It's not going anywhere, whatnot. But you don't see Coca-Cola really take off and do big things, right? And that's for two reasons, you know? The number one reason it has a very low beta. And the number two reason it pays a nice dividend. So I wanna look at something with a higher beta, a high beta. A beta of one means it's just as volatile as the S&P 500. I want a little spice on mine. I want you to go up a little bit higher. By going up a little bit higher, it doesn't say you're wrong. It's just saying that you have the possibility to move. I want stocks that's gonna be able to move into the future. The next thing I'm looking at is, what is my benchmark? If I have 10 stocks in my portfolio and I'm looking at adding an infrastructure stock, I'm gonna say, okay, well, is this stock beating the stocks that I currently hold in my portfolio? If they are, then why? Number two, are you beating the number one reason when we take this back to number one, let's revert back. Number one, are you outperforming the S&P 500 index? I can do that with simple look at a chart, right? Are you outperforming the S&P 500? The reason why that is so important because if you're not outperforming the S&P 500, if your individual stock is not outperforming the S&P 500, which is the top 500 companies in America, then I might as well just get the top 500 companies in America because the likelihood that the top 500 companies in America will have a significant decline versus your individual on the performance stock is greatly different. So my first thing is, are you outperforming the S&P 500 when I place you on the chart? The next thing is, I'm gonna look for is, I don't like companies, this one may sound a little crazy, but because I used to be very big on this, I used to be very, very big on dividends.  Why do I need to collect a dividend that's gonna be continuously repaid? Some people like dividends because they like to return on investment. Some people like dividends because they need a cash flow. Some people have so many other reasons that they like dividends. But I noticed, companies that pay a heavy dividend, like you look at a lot of your AT&T companies, you look at a lot of your Coca-Cola companies, companies that pay heavy dividends usually don't really go that fast or high. You look at a company like Verizon, AT&T, Coca-Cola, these companies don't run very fast or run very high, right? Why is that? Why they don't run very fast? Why they don't run very high? They don't run very fast or run very high because of the cash just coming in. A lot of that is going to dividends. Look at all the airline companies that had to pay millions that were paying millions and millions of dollars every quarter and to shareholders dividends. With me, and somebody said, hey, Prince, you invested $100,000 into my company. I have a dividend checkup, $5,000, that's going to come your way. And they said, hey, I can send you this $5,000 so you can have to go buy whatever you want to buy or I can keep this $5,000 and grow the company even more. So we're going to turn your $100,000 investment to a million dollars or whatever case can be. I like that. That's what I want to have. I would rather the company retain more of its earnings and expand in the future. Also by a company not paying you their dividends to a shareholder, this is a way to defer taxes. So for prime example, let's take someone who owns Coca-Cola and they earn a million dollars in dividends. Guess what? At the end of the year, when it's trying to pay taxes, they're going to have to pay a million dollars on, they're going to pay a million dollars on the dividends that they receive versus take someone else who invested into Google. They didn't pay any dividends. They weren't paying any dividends. They didn't sell the stock. They just held the stock. Guess how much they're going to owe in dividends? Zero. And on top of that, I'll probably have to tell you guys and girls, but you already know that Google probably outperform Coca-Cola anyway. So, excuse me, technology companies that don't pay dividends usually grow faster and put more money in my pocket. But what we're going to do, we're going to take a quick break. And I mean a very quick break. And after this break, we're going to come back. We're going to do a little review that we already talked about. Then we're going to break it down into the actual stocks that I've seen that you can take a look at and how to find a particular stock. That's what we're going to get into after the break. How to find the exact stocks in the sectors we just named on the President Biden. But we're going to take a quick break and we will be right back. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls and children of our ages, we are now back live on The Prince of Investment. I'm your host, Prince Dykes. I'm going to give a little review for anybody that may be tuning in now or may be catching it live. And so that if you, maybe if you were sleeping in the beginning that you can catch live what we have now. But the first thing is that we talked about. We talked about infrastructure. We talked about, we talked about, well, let's get back to very, very beginning. This whole episode of stocks to watch upon the President Biden and the stocks that we came up with to watch on the President Biden, we talked about why his, what his opinions were. And we said it was infrastructure, renewable energy and healthcare. On top of that, we looked at how does the President affect companies in the stock price? We'd love to look at the fundamentals of a company, how much money they make and things like that, right? So the President would be in a position and Congress would be in position to open up the banks. They can write government contracts. They can give tax credits. They can do all type of things to incentivize people to buy particular products. Prime example, the government wants to fix the roads. They can allocate money and move money around to give to cities and counties and states to help fix the roads. And the companies that do fix roads that put them in a position to capitalize. So that's how the President affects the economy. The third thing that we talked about was the particular sectors. We looked into the sectors. We looked into the sectors of infrastructure, renewable energy and healthcare. The President made it very clear that he was the Vice President of Obama who created Obamacare. So he's very big on Obamacare. And the second thing is we have a lot of baby boomers that's moving right into that older age of where you don't need more healthcare. The next thing was renewable energy. We see that renewable energy companies like Tesla is taking off solar panel companies. They're having great years. So green energy is another one and infrastructure that we already spoke about. So those are the sectors. Then we talked about inside of those sectors, what do you look for in a stock? And I said, I want profitability, low debt-to-income ratio, a high beta. I'll perform the S&P 500 and that pays no dividends. They have, I want the income steadily growing, their revenue streams are steadily growing, gross profits steadily growing, retained earnings steadily growing. So I'm looking for companies that are growing where, and I'm not grading them by what they said or do, I'm looking at their numbers, are their numbers increasing year over year? How does their debt look? Is that debt increasing? If it is, is gross profits increasing? So looking at that income statement, looking at that balance sheet and also paying attention to the cash flow. So with that being said, now we'd say before the break, we talked about the sectors, how do we find somebody in the sector? So the first thing you can do, there are plenty of ways. If you have Robinhood, not Robinhood, I'm sorry about that, I don't know Robinhood, it's having a crazy day today, but we're talking about if you have maybe like an E-Trade or a TD Ameritrade or maybe like a simple Google search, you can find some of the top companies in the infrastructure arena. So how do you find a top company is you can search by their market capitalization. Market capitalization is the share, how many shares are outstanding times the share price that's gonna come up with market cap. So you have mega cap, mega cap, mega large companies, you have large cap companies, mid cap companies, if you have small cap companies, this is how they rank companies, how big they are or whatever the case may be. So the thing about it is, first I wanna start with the big boy, the biggest and the baddest in the sector. Once I list out your market capitalization, are you the biggest and the baddest in the section?  Usually the biggest and the baddest company is usually profitable, you usually have good debt to equity ratio. Then I'm looking at stock price and I'm looking at this beta and then I'm looking at, how does it compare to the S&P 500 and does it pay dividends? And then if none of that happens, if all of that happens to line up, then I may go with that company, I may not go with that company. Then I may look at who else is in that sector, who's the top three, right? Now I'm looking at the performance too, I'm looking at the performance, who's performing what? If they are performing very well and they're doing very good and things like that, then I may go with that particular company. Now when I look at the stocks, so first I go to the section, I go to the sector of, let's say infrastructure. Let's say for infrastructure, I may go to the construction section inside the construction section, I may look at construction materials, who's selling the materials to be constructed upon, right? So when I do that research and I find, okay, boom, I pull out a list, now I fill that list down to market cap. Now I have the market cap, I can see the big companies, now I can do a quick search and look at the PE ratio. I look at the PE ratio and it's negative or it's zero, I know that company's unprofitable at least within the last 12 months. Go to a way, I don't wanna pay attention to it. Then look at the debt-to-income ratio, how much cash do you have on hand? What are your total assets? What are your total liabilities? What is the ratio? Just because you have a lot of debt, do you make a lot of cash? Is your income steadily growing? Is your income growing? Are you decreasing debt over time? So I'm looking at that gross profit, right? You know, we love to get sometimes as investors, we look, oh, this company makes this much money, but I wanna see how much money is the company taking home? And I can stroll all the way down on that income statement, on that balance sheet, and I love to look at those retained earnings. And also shareholder's equity. I love to look at the total assets, minus the total liabilities, comes up with a network, AKA shareholder's equity. The next thing is, okay, great financial, fundamental company, but now does this stock even move? What is the beta? If the beta is one or above, or is one below, what is it, you know? I want something with a little bit of a higher beta, because if I'm right, I want the stock to move. So I'm gonna compare it to the S&P 500. Are you outperforming the S&P 500 year to date? Within the last year, two years, three years, because I know great companies that don't move that much.  I can break that down. The next thing I can do is to see, are you paying a dividend? Are you paying a dividend? It's a very easy to look up. You can look at dividends, and also the dividend payment is also on the cash flow statement, and it's also on your income statement as well, right? So I can see how much money is being paid in dividends, even if it pays dividends, because instead of sending me a check for $100 or $5 or two cent or whatever, I really keep that money and continue to grow the company. Because when you pay me that money, first the company, once the company made the money, they gotta pay taxes. Then they pass it down to you, then you have to pay taxes. So you're being hit with taxes twice. I really the company continue to grow, AKA a company like a Tesla or a company like Amazon. I want that company to continue to grow. I don't have to pay taxes on it, and it continues to reflect and stop price of my value as it continues to grow. That's what I wanna see. The next thing that I want to, and those are like five general things that I can see by looking in that sector, looking in the renewable energy sector, who's there? Who's there? Who's the biggest one by market cap? What companies are moving? Are they profitable? Are they doing a debt equity ratio? And I can provide that to help here. So one company, this look at an infrastructure, you have a company like CaliPillar, CaliPillar, right? Now I have another company that doesn't have a big name, CaliPillar, you know, when you drive down that road, you see those big trucks and bulldozers and things like that on those construction sites, starting construction or whatever, that's a great deal. That's a great deal for CaliPillar. If we build infrastructure, we're probably gonna need some of their machinery that they make. That's one that you look at an infrastructure. Green energy. When you look at green energy, you have companies like Enphase, and you have companies like Solar Edge that are doing very good to have great finances and things like that. The next one is healthcare. One that I really like is Illumineer, right? I really like that one. It's a little bit on the high end. It's about 300 bucks, but it's a great company. It's in the healthcare industry. It's not just taking care of people, but it's creating technology. It's creating technology, diagnostics and things like that. There's another company I've found there, but it's a pretty known company. Who's making the technology? Healthcare technology. As clients get older and they need injectables, they have to take shots. They need to breathe the machine and the oxygen. Who's making the tubing? Who's making the machinery or whatnot, right? So this is the way you can find this out, but once you find a company you've never heard of, most websites, every publicly traded company has an investor relations division.  So like I just said, we have on infrastructure, we have Calpillar for renewable energy. We have solar edge and we have in-phase. In-phase is the one that I love the most, E-N-P-H and healthcare. You have Illuminaire, right? So when you look at all these particular companies, you have so many ways to profit and invest, right? You can align yourself to get in front of what the President Biden's presidency will look like in those particular sectors breaking down those stocks. So in this episode, quick recap, we talked about President Biden's belief and we talked about the three sectors that his beliefs kind of tie into. We talked about how does the president, how do they incentivize people to buy from companies, incentivize businesses. Then we looked at the sectors and inside those sectors, we looked at five things to look for in stocks. And then we found five individual stocks under President Biden's election that you can get in front of. Please do you do diligence. This is not me telling you to buy anything. This is just me giving you my opinion in a way that I kind of look at things like that. I do not hold Calpillar, I do not hold solar edge and I do not hold Illuminaire at this time. I do own in phase. I'm making sure I have the duty to disclose that too. So I'm not trying to influence anybody, go out here and buy something that I already own to run the price up. So got way more interior than that. Anyway, ladies and gentlemen, that's gonna conclude today's episode.

Item number SCP-008 Object Class, Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-008 samples have been deemed Class V Extreme Biological Hazards and all related protocols apply. Incineration and irradiation measures will be deployed in the event of political or military action which may result in the facility being dismantled, a power failure, or zero communications from operatives or outside channels during any given eight-hour period. The quarantine period for operatives leaving the facility is four months. If a breach has occurred, incineration and irradiation measures shall be deployed. It should be the policy of all G2 sites to not prepare an evacuation procedure. Description SCP-008 is a complex prion, samples of which are stored in each of the known G2 sites. Research into SCP-008 is highly classified and primarily aimed at preventing research which may lead to the synthesis of SCP-008 in the distant future. Traits of the SCP-008 prion include 100% infectiousness, 100% lethality, transmission through exposed mucus membranes and all bodily fluids, not airborne or waterborne. Symptoms of infection with SCP-008 manifest no more than three hours after exposure and include flu-like symptoms with high fever plus severe dementia in later stages. Coma onset approximately 20 hours after first symptoms appear and 12 hours after noticeable dementia. Coma onset will be considered onset of death. A period of sporadic cellular necrosis occurs which comes to resemble gangrene. Surviving tissue assumes its original function and is highly resilient. Red blood cells greatly increase oxygen storage capacity resulting in slower blood flow and increased muscle endurance and strength. Nervous and muscular systems are unaffected by total organ failure for several hours. Metabolism may decrease to extremely low levels allowing subject to survive for over 10 years without nutrition. High blood viscosity results in negligible blood flow from gunshot, puncture and slashing injuries.  Animals experience excessive brain necrosis and are inactive. Subject can adapt to its damaged nervous systems but is limited to basic physical activities including standing up, balancing on two legs, walking, biting, grabbing and crawling. Subject will energetically move towards sights, sounds and smells it associates with living humans. Subject will attempt to ingest living humans if physical contact is made. Neutralizing fully infected subjects require significant cranial trauma. There is strong evidence to suggest SCP-008 itself did not form naturally on earth since variants of similar complexity would have displaced much of the ecosystem. In 1959, a short collaborative effort with the USSR to locate G2 sites and eliminate SCP-008 was negotiated following their discovery. The status of SCP-008 in Russian custody since collaboration ended is unknown. Addendum 008-1 SCP-500 has been found to be able to completely cure SCP-008 even in the advanced stages of the disease. Item number SCP-022 Object Class Euclid Special Containment Procedures A vault door has been installed following incident 022-827 to seal SCP-022. It is to remain locked at all times, with the sole exception being the appearance of an instance of SCP-022-1. The original door to SCP-022 was destroyed during incident 022-827 with attempts at replacement being met with failure. Security cameras have been installed to monitor for instances of SCP-022-1 In the event that an instance of SCP-022-1 appears, automated systems should incinerate it the moment it leaves SCP-022. At this point, the vault door may be unlocked to admit cleanup crews. Should the automated systems fail to destroy the instance of SCP-022-1, response teams are cleared to enter and neutralize it. Under no circumstances may any living human enter SCP-022 except at the order of Class 4 personnel for testing purposes. Class 4 personnel may also order instances of SCP-022-1 to be captured and held. However, they may not be removed from SCP-022 containment facilities. Description SCP-022 is a morgue in the basement of hospital in Great Britain. Until 1981, there were no reported anomalous occurrences within the morgue. Reports of strange activity were first received in November of 1981. The area was soon quarantined by the Foundation, with an official story being released that the entire building had been condemned. The reason for the sudden manifestation of its strange properties remains under investigation. Periodically, a random drawer within the morgue will open to reveal a cadaver under a covered sheet. After approximately 6 minutes open, the cadaver will animate and attempt to leave the morgue. At this point, the cadaver is given the designation SCP-022-1. In some cases, the cadaver will be too damaged or decomposed to successfully exit SCP-022 or even rise from the table it lies on. In this case, SCP-022-1 will typically struggle and twitch on the table until exploration occurs. Should an instance of SCP-022-1 expire while remaining on the table, the table slides back into the drawer, which then shuts. Reports indicate that the scent of burnt tissue is evident immediately following such an event. The energy source that sustains instances of SCP-022-1 is currently unknown. Instances do not breathe, eat, or sleep, and their bodies produce no heat. Analysis of SCP-022-1 following exploration has discovered no abnormal organs or chemicals present. They appear to be fully human cadavers. Instances also possess physical strength that exceeds that of normal humans. Though direct testing has proven problematic, researchers estimate the strength increase to be approximately 500 newtons, 112 pounds, of lifting force greater than what one would expect of a human body sharing a similar condition. Analysis is underway to determine if this effect is connected to the unknown power source or if it is an entirely separate phenomenon. When body parts are severed from SCP-022-1, the portion with the greatest mass retains its effects. All other pieces become inert. Destruction of the head or brain does not neutralize SCP-022-1. Instead, the lower torso and limbs remain animate. Complete tissue destruction appears to be the only method of successfully terminating instances of SCP-022-1. Left alone, instances of SCP-022-1 will simply expire. All motion ceases and they appear to become normal cadavers again. The amount of time this takes depends on how damaged the body is and the rate of decomposition, and can take anywhere between two days and three weeks. Investigation has revealed that the bodies acting as SCP-022-1 matched the description of cadavers reported to have been stolen from morgues across the country. The mechanism for this transfer is currently being researched. Adding any new matter to SCP-022 has thus far proved impossible. Any object that enters SCP-022 disappears shortly after passing through the door, leaving no trace. This includes inanimate objects and biological specimens. So long as an instance of SCP-022-1 possesses a functioning mouth, tongue, and trachea, it is able to communicate fully with researchers. See the following interview log for details. Interview log 022-751. Each of the following interviews begin in much the same way. The instance of SCP-022-1 will typically be hysterical, until foundation personnel are able to calm or restrain them. These portions have been omitted. Date. March. 1981. Interviewee. SCP-022-1-2. Interviewer. Dr. Br... Notes. SCP-022-1-2 was the second instance of SCP-022-1 that the Foundation discovered, the first having been destroyed on site by Foundation agents. SCP-022-1-2 had the body of an Asian male, approximately 54 years old. Its chest had been stitched up, evidence of an autopsy. Begin log. Doctor, please identify yourself. SCP-022-1-2. My... my name is John... What?  Doctor, that's what we're trying to figure out, John. How did you get to this... state? SCP-022-1-2. I... I don't know. I was driving my car, coming home from never mind. I was driving and I crashed. Doctor, then what happened? SCP-022-1-2. Nothing. I woke up here. Please. This has to be unintelligible. Doctor, so you remember being in a car accident? Then woke up here in the morgue. Do you have any idea how you got here? SCP-022-1-2. I didn't get here. Don't you get it? This isn't me. I'm not me. Doctor, what do you mean you aren't you? At this point, SCP-022-1-2 became severely agitated and had to be physically restrained. This required six agents due to the strength increase associated with instances of SCP-022-1. Eventually, SCP-022-1-2 was calmed and the interview proceeded. Doctor, now would you please explain what you meant? SCP-022-1-2. This is not me. I saw my reflection in the steel. I'm not some old Asian. This isn't me. And log. Following the last statement, SCP-022-1-2 began to smash its head against the wall. Once further restrained, it began to scream unintelligibly for several hours before falling silent. It continued to struggle, though apparently unable to speak, for an additional six days until it finally ceased motion. During this time, it continued decomposing at a natural rate. An examination of the body following this interview was unable to determine a cause of death, as many of the internal organs had been removed. The only injury that did not appear to be a result of a previous surgery or autopsy was a damaged trachea. Date, March, 1980. Interviewee, SCP-022-1-5. Interviewer, Dr. Rhee. Notes, SCP-022-1-5, animated shortly after D-5619 was sent into SCP-022 and subsequently disappeared. SCP-022-1-5 had the body of an approximately 12-year-old female, missing its right arm and a large portion of its torso. Following the incident with SCP-022-1-3, all instances of SCP-022-1 are physically restrained, before being introduced a valuable personnel, with SCP-022-1-5 being no exception. Begin log. Doctor, please state your name. SCP-022-1-5. What did you bastards do to me? Doctor, please state your name. SCP-022-1-5.  Doctor, we have done nothing to you. Now please state your name. SCP-022-1-5. You know who I f***ing am. Doctor, refresh my memory then please. SCP-022-1-5.  Don't tell me you forgot me, Doctor. Doctor, are you D-5619? SCP-022-1-5.  Change me f*** back. And log. At this point, Doctor asked SCP-022-1-5 several questions to verify its identity. Though its identity was confirmed to be that of D-5619, no further useful information was gained from SCP-022-1-5. It was kept in a holding cell until expiring two days later. After three weeks, the body of D-5619 animated as SCP-022-1-7. In a brief interview with SCP-022-1-7, it claimed to be an 89 year old female. Addendum 022-001. A request has been submitted to create a new entrance to SCP-022 by removing a portion of the south wall. Request pending approval. Addendum 022-002. A pile of matter was discovered on the floor of the room directly above SCP-022. It appeared to contain all matter that had been sent into SCP-022, with the exception of humans. All materials appeared broken and worn down. Metallic components were covered in large amounts of rust, with all biological parts being in various stages of decomposition. Testing revealed that the time between inserting an object into SCP-022 and it reappearing above to be precisely 183 seconds. Humans who enter, however, do not appear in said pile. Instead, humans appear to become integrated into the morgue, and may later animate as instances of SCP-022-1. Item Number SCP-049 Object Class Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-049 is contained within a standard secure humanoid containment cell in Research Sector 02 at Site-19. SCP-049 must be sedated before any attempts to transport it. During transport, SCP-049 must be secured within a Class III humanoid restriction harness, including a locking collar and extension restraints, and monitored by no fewer than two armed guards. While SCP-049 is generally cooperative with most Foundation personnel, outbursts or sudden changes in behavior are to be met with elevated force. Under no circumstances should any personnel come into direct contact with SCP-049 during these outbursts. In the event SCP-049 becomes aggressive, the application of lavender has been shown to produce a calming effect on the entity. Once calmed, SCP-049 generally becomes compliant and will return to containment with little resistance. In order to facilitate the ongoing containment of SCP-049, the entity is to be provided with the corpse of a recently deceased animal, typically a bovine or other large mammal, once every two weeks for study. Corpses that become instances of SCP-049-2 are to be removed from SCP-049's containment cell and incinerated. SCP-049 is no longer permitted to interact with human subjects, and requests for human subjects are to be denied. Temporary Containment Procedure Update Per containment committee order 049.S19.17.1, SCP-049 is no longer permitted to interact directly with any members of Foundation staff, nor is it to be provided with any additional corpses to be used in its surgeries. This order shall persist indefinitely, until such time a consensus regarding the ongoing containment of SCP-049 can be reached. Description SCP-049 is a humanoid entity, roughly 1.9 meters in height, which bears the appearance of a medieval plague doctor. While SCP-049 appears to be wearing the thick robes and the ceramic mask indicative of that profession, the garments instead seem to have grown out of SCP-049's body over time. The robes and gloves are identical to a thick hide, built up on the skin, while the mask is composed of a kind of chitin growing out of the bones of the face, and are now nearly indistinguishable from whatever form is beneath them. X-rays indicate that despite this, SCP-049 does have a humanoid skeletal structure beneath its outer layer. SCP-049 is capable of speech in a variety of languages, though tends to prefer English or medieval French. The entity claims to have originated in 15th century France, though admits that it is particularly well-traveled. While SCP-049 is generally cordial and cooperative with Foundation staff, it can become especially irritated or at times outright aggressive if it feels that it is in the presence of what it calls the pestilence. Although the exact nature of this pestilence is currently unknown to Foundation researchers, it does seem to be an issue of immense concern to SCP-049. SCP-049 will become hostile with individuals it sees as being affected by the pestilence, often having to be restrained should it encounter such. If left unchecked, SCP-049 will generally attempt to kill any such individual. SCP-049 is capable of causing all biological functions of an organism to cease through direct skin contact. How this occurs is currently unknown, and autopsies of SCP-049's victims have invariably been inconclusive. SCP-049 has expressed frustration or remorse after these killings, indicating that they have done little to kill the pestilence, though will usually seek to then perform a crude surgery on the corpse using the implements contained within a black doctor's bag it carries on its person at all times. The space within this bag is seemingly anomalously large, as SCP-049 has been observed pulling objects larger than the bag itself from within it in order to operate on deceased subjects. While these surgeries are not always successful, they often result in the creation of instances of SCP-049-2. SCP-049-2 instances are reanimated corpses that have been operated on by SCP-049. These instances do not seem to retain any of their prior memories or mental functions, having only basic motor skills and response mechanisms. While these instances are generally inactive, moving very little and in a generally ambulatory fashion, they can become extremely aggressive if provoked, or if directed to by SCP-049. SCP-049-2 instances express active biological functions, though these are vastly different from currently understood human physiology. Despite these alterations, SCP-049 often remarks that these subjects have been cured. Addendum 049.1 Discovery SCP-049 was discovered during the investigation of a series of unknown disappearances in the town of Montabon in southern France. During a raid on a local home, investigators found several instances of SCP-049-2, as well as SCP-049. While law enforcement personnel engaged the hostile 049-2 instances, SCP-049 was noted as watching the engagement and taking notes in its journal. After all of the 049-2 instances were dispatched, SCP-049 willingly entered Foundation custody. SCP-049 Upon Discovery The following interview was conducted by Dr. Raymond Hamm during the initial investigation. Interviewer Dr. Raymond Hamm, Site-85, Interviewee SCP-049 Begin Log I like minded individual, no doubt. Wherein is your speciality, sir? Cryptobiology. Why? A medical man, such as myself, wanders abound, and here, I worried I had been abducted by common street thugs. This place, then, places your laboratory. I had wandered as clean as it is, and with such little trace of the pestilence here, the pestilence, sir, what do you mean? The scourge, the great dying, come now, you know, the, what is it they call it, the, the hair, ah, no matter. The pestilence, yes, it abounds outside these walls, you know. So many have succumbed, and many more will continue to, until such time as a perfect cure can be developed. Fortunately, I am very close. It is my duty in life to rid the world of it, you see. The cure, to end all cures. When you will say the great dying, are you talking about the bubonic plague? I know what that is. Ah, I see. Right, well, the entities are agents countered at the house, and they were dead when you encountered them. Yes, you reanimated them. In a manner of speaking, you see things too simply, Doctor. Expand your horizons, life and death, sickness and health. These are amateur terms for amateur positions. There is only one ailment that exists in the world of men, and that is the pestilence, and nothing else. Make no mistake, they were very ill. All of them. You think you cured those people? More is most effective. Well, the things we recovered were not human. Yes, well, it is not a perfect cure, but that will come with time and further experimentation. I have spent a lifetime developing my methods, Doctor Han, and will spend a lifetime more, if necessary. Now, we have wasted too much time. There is work to do. I will require a laboratory of my own, one where I can continue my research, unimpeded, and assistance, of course, though I can provide those on my own. We are all men of science. That's your code, and show me to my quarters, Doctor. Our work begins now. End log. Interviewers note, while SCP-049 is capable of communicating in a very human way, there is a strange sense of unease that one experiences when in its presence. Make no mistake, there is something very uncanny about this entity indeed. Additionally, we have confiscated that pointed stick that SCP-049 keeps waving around. Part of this was due to standard confiscation protocols for the possessions of anomalies, and part because 049 really is a menace swinging it around like he does. The entity was displeased at first, but after we made some concessions in providing it with test subjects, which are admittedly more for the benefit of our own research, it warmed up to the idea. Addendum 049.2. Observation log. While in containment at Site-19, SCP-049 has spent a considerable amount of time studying and performing surgery on the various mammalian corpses it has been provided. SCP-049 will routinely spend several days performing surgery, and then, regardless of whether or not the corpse becomes an instance of SCP-049-2, spending several more days documenting its findings in a thick leather journal stored within its doctor's bag. SCP-049 will often seek to share its findings with members of Foundation staff. Notably, SCP-049's journals are not written in any known language, and attempts by linguists and code breakers to decipher them have been unsuccessful. The following is a log of several occasions during which SCP-049 was observed operating on a mammalian corpse. Observation log 049.OL.1 Summary Subject SCP-049 Preface A test subject D-85123 was introduced into SCP-049's containment cell. The entity expressed sincere gratitude towards all members of the containment and research staff. Observation notes. SCP-049 began by asking D-85123 several standard medical questions as it began removing tools from its bag. Shortly after finishing its preparations, SCP-049 quickly closed the distance between the two, killing the subject with a touch to its throat. Afterwards, SCP-049 made a number of considerable alterations to the basic structure of the subject's corpse, often introducing fluids from within its bag into the subject by way of a hand-powered pump and copper tubing. The resulting 049-2 instance became animated, flailing and grasping at the walls of the chamber with a number of manufactured limbs, while moaning out of an oblong orifice now present in its sternum. During this time, SCP-049 was observed taking notes of the instance in its journal, and remarking to the watching research staff about the efficacy of its cure. Security personnel entered the chamber to move SCP-049 back to containment and were attacked by the instance. The security team dispatched the 049-2 instance, and SCP-049 returned to containment with no resistance, stating that it was pleased with the results. Observation Log 049.OL.2 Summary Subject SCP-049 Preface SCP-049 was provided the corpse of a recently deceased goat. SCP-049 expressed gratitude at the provision. Observation Notes SCP-049 operated on the goat corpse for several days, eventually resulting in an instance of SCP-049-2. SCP-049 expressed pleasure in this outcome, though admitted the disease was still in its nascent stage. My veterinarian practices rudimentary, but the patient responded well to the procedure. Observation Log 049.OL.3 Summary Subject SCP-049 Preface SCP-049 was provided the corpse of a recently deceased orangutan. SCP-049 expressed noted gratitude at the provision, due to the similarities between the orangutan and common human physiology. Observation Notes SCP-049 spent several days operating on the orangutan, reanimating it several times. However, SCP-049 appeared to be discontent with the results it experienced, returning to the creature three times after its initial reanimation for additional work. After it was unable to reanimate the corpse a fifth time, SCP-049 turned the corpse over to Foundation Staff for Incineration, stating, I have learned so much from this. Though I fear my early optimism was misplaced, I hadn't yet come across such a a stumbling block on my road to the cure. More subjects like this would do a great deal in advancing my research. Observation Log 049.OL.7 Full Subject SCP-049 Preface SCP-049 was provided the corpse of a recently deceased bovine. SCP-049 expressed mild annoyance at the provision, though accepted it nonetheless. SCP-049 had stated its desire to work on human subjects several times between this occasion and the earlier provision of an orangutan, noting its discontentedness when they would not be provided. Observation Notes SCP-049 spent several days operating on the bovine corpse, breaking only to dine on a requested dinner of thin crackers, salted pork, and hard cheese. SCP-049 has expressed that it does not require sustenance, but enjoys it and feels that the food helps to put it in the right mind to operate. Beginning first by embalming the corpse, SCP-049 was observed producing a number of long syringes from its bag, each containing a different dark viscous fluid. SCP-049 described these fluids as essences of the humors and elaborated by saying, the pestilence may bring about a systemic imbalance. In such a case, before true healing can begin, one must find the humors in balance or the body will reject the cure. SCP-049 added to this statement by saying, This is, of course, elementary knowledge for the practical physician. I would have thought you would have learned this during your education. Over the next few days, SCP-049 spent a considerable amount of time adjusting the organs of the bovine corpse with a number of large metal instruments. After eight days, SCP-049 produced a lightning rod, which Dr. Hamm exchanged for an electric cattle prod attached to an extension cord, and struck the corpse in several locations. This action seemingly had the effect of reanimating the bovine, which once again became ambulatory, despite the inversion of the head and reorientation of its limbs. Follow up interview. Begin log. I hear, in my journals, as I have kept exhaustive records of my work there. See, where my concern, Doctor, is that we still don't understand what you're seeking to cure, how it manifests, or how turning these creatures into quasi-living, mindless drones helps in that effort. You do not understand the pestilence, even after all this time. Doctor, it is an unspeakable horror, one that has shown its true face many times before, and will again. I find myself blessed with the wisdom and good senses needed to root it out and destroy it. But many, like yourself, cannot. It is a cruel judgement, my fear, to be at the mercy of a disease you cannot fully comprehend. That still doesn't answer my question. How shall cure any kind of cure at all? It is a cure. You may laugh at my efforts, if you please, but do not besmirch the good name of scientific progress that has developed this great mercy. What you short-sightedly see here is a life better than any this creature could have hoped for. Stricken as it was with the pestilence, this creature is now clean, unable to spread the pestilence, and free from the terror it would have experienced otherwise. This is hardly a creature at all, Doctor. Do not jade with me, sir. You and your colleagues are like so many others, unable to look past minus setbacks to see the salvation taking place before your very eyes. Do you wait to remove rotten timbers until the hall collapses on top of you? No. You find them and you pull them out and replace them with those untouched by rot. And most of all, you do not simply mock the structure because it now looks different to you. It is strong. It is free of disease. I'm sorry. Did mean to agitate you. I'm just trying to understand. Yes. Well, do mind your words in the future, Doctor. I am a professional, but even professionals may feel the bite of pride in dealing with criticism of their masterpiece. I will forgive this as an act of good faith between colleagues. Is there anything else I can help you with? No. That will be all. Another test subject on the usual schedule. You know my preference of subjects with more human anatomies. End log. Attending researchers note, SCP-049 does seem to genuinely want to help other humans, though it has not yet been able to provide a concrete example of what exactly it is trying to save us all from. I have watched it now over several weeks, and while the outcomes do not seem to ever change, SCP-049 continues to claim that it is growing closer to its perfect cure. I think the entity may be more aware of the reality of these outcomes than it would like us to think. Addendum 049.3, 04-16-2017 Incident. Starting shortly after SCP-049's initial containment, Dr. Hamm conducted a number of interviews with the subject regarding its anomalous properties, and over time began to note its displeasure with its subjects and the SCP-049-2 instances. This continued for a period of several months, during which SCP-049 never exhibited any aggressive behaviors. On April 16th, 2017, as Dr. Hamm was entering SCP-049's test chamber to conduct another routine interview, the entity began to grow anxious and asked Dr. Hamm if he was feeling well. Following protocol, Dr. Hamm reminded SCP-049 that the interview was required, after which the entity became hostile and attacked Dr. Hamm, killing him. Due to a lapse in security protocol, and because Dr. Hamm did not activate the in-chamber emergency system, Dr. Hamm's corpse was not discovered until three hours later, by which point SCP-049 had converted it into an instance of SCP-049-2. In the aftermath of this incident, SCP-049 was interviewed by Dr. Theron Sherman. Interviewer, Dr. Theron Sherman, Site 42, Interviewee, SCP-049. Begin log. I need you to explain yourself. SCP-049, you are being directed to explain your actions, and I will remind you that failure to cooperate will result in further restrictions during your containment. Actions do not need to be explained.  No, not, not dead. He is, he is cured. Cured? Cured of what? The pestilence, sir. I had thought you, at least, would realize what luck it is. I detected it before- What pestilence? You keep going on and on about this pestilence, but you have not once been able to properly identify this disease. What could you have possibly seen in him today that you had not seen so many times before? That it would be worth his life? He presents certain progresses in unforeseeable fashions, and has a clear way of into the unprepared. He is a vegetable. I expect you to understand. You and your, your ilk, to be men of science, but men of, of emotion. You cannot appreciate the horrors I've seen. Those many millions who have succumbed to the pestilence have been changed.  No, good. Sir, I have saved it. You would allow this world to slip back into the, the despair of disease and death, ignoring that I have created a miracle. What disease? What pestilence? He was a good doctor. I'm offering it free. You are not worth this argument. We're short-sighted and foolish. Dr. Ham was sick and I, I am the only one who can do this. My work must continue. There is still so much to learn, so much to do. I've had enough of this and I'll see you. Welcome to containment 0.9. I'd be saved. We're done here. I can save them all. I can cast down this plague once and for all. I know we were sick. I know we was. And I, you are all sick. And log. Addendum 049.4. Post-incident report interview. The following interview is an excerpt from the 4-16-17-049 incident report. The interview was conducted by Dr. Elijah Itkin and took place three weeks after the start of the initial investigation. Date. 5-7-17. Interviewer. Dr. Elijah Itkin. Interview E. SCP-049. Begin log. 049, we are conducting this interview to close out our investigation of your actions taken on April 16th that resulted in the death of a staff member. Do you have any comments to make? Only that I look forward to the day when you will allow me to resume my work. I have spent the last few weeks compiling my notes and instructing a new theory about how the pestilence was able to affect someone in such an insidious manner that I nearly couldn't detect it. Have you experienced any remorse for your actions for the death of Dr. Ham? I have, well, always regrettable, but we must be swift. Dr., an act without... Alan noted in his report that you seem to be mournful during your initial interview. Mourn, my desires turn towards tending to those still living who suffer. I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed. End log. Item number. SCP-060. Object Class. Keter. Special Containment Procedures. The grove which contains SCP-060 is currently contained in a series of specially constructed greenhouses at satellite site 66-060. Specimens are to be pruned regularly to keep it a manageable size. Personnel are banned from smoking while within five kilometers of satellite site 66-060. Personnel are to refrain from bringing lighters, matches, tasers, or any other tool readily capable of starting a fire into satellite site 66-060. SCP-060 specimens are to be watered twice daily and checked weekly for dead plant matter and saplings. Dead matter and saplings are to be pruned, shedded, and composted properly in the dedicated facility on site. Afterwards returned to SCP-060's containment chamber. Fragments of SCP-060 may not be moved off site for any reason without explicit written permission from two or more level four personnel. In the event of a breach by SCP-060 Alpha, personnel are to enter lockdown mode and activate on site fire suppression systems. Redundant on site fire suppression systems have been installed throughout the site including water and chemical retardants to be utilized in tandem in the event of a containment breach. Portable extinguishers are to be kept available at all times. Containment chamber 060 Alpha-001 is a dedicated circular containment chamber designed to contain SCP-060 Alpha during testing. This chamber is constructed of concrete with a two meter thick asbestos coating with a series of chimneys to allow for ventilation of heat during containment. The walls are fitted with 24 CO2 projectors evenly spaced at 45 degree angles along the walls and will activate in the presence of temperatures exceeding 200 degrees Celsius. One kilogram of SCP-060 material is to be kept within containment chamber 060 Alpha-001 to be burned in the event of a breach. Description SCP-060 is a grove of 17 white oak trees, Quercus Alba. The grove is spread across approximately eight acres in rural northeastern Minnesota. A house on the property was demolished during the construction of satellite Site 66-060 after being combed by Foundation personnel for information regarding SCP-060. When burned, SCP-060 will produce an entity henceforth designated SCP-060 Alpha.  SCP-060 Alpha initially burns at a temperature of approximately 1500 degrees Celsius, or 2,730 degrees Fahrenheit, and will attempt to cause as much damage as possible when active. Burning as little as 20 grams of SCP-060 will cause SCP-060 Alpha to appear. Only one instance of SCP-060 Alpha will appear at any time. It is theorized that 060 Alpha is a unique entity.  It appears to be a single recurring entity, showing a growing familiarity with satellite Site 66-060's layout over the course of several manifestations. When given the opportunity, it will throw itself bodily at flammable materials in an effort to cause damage and assault personnel with a focus on grappling and strangulation. Additionally, it has proven capable of running at speeds of up to 80 kilometers an hour or 50 miles per hour in short bursts and leaping approximately 5 meters from a running start. Due to the extreme temperatures produced by 060 Alpha during the initial stages of manifestation, along with its physical capabilities, it is capable of causing large uncontrolled fires and widespread property damage if left unchecked. SCP-060 Alpha appears to intentionally avoid burning instances of SCP-060 when it becomes active. If SCP-060 Alpha is introduced to a high enough volume of water or other flame retarded material over a short amount of time, it will begin to weaken to the point that it will collapse into dust. Collapse will occur suddenly, with little warning. SCP-060 Alpha will continue to pose a threat up until its collapse. The volume of suppressive material required to subdue SCP-060 Alpha is markedly less than would be expected to quench a heat source of its intensity, with volumes of approximately 500 liters proving sufficient. Areas burned by SCP-060 Alpha will begin to yield sapling instances of SCP-060 over the following four to six weeks. Only one wave of sapling growth will follow any given containment breach. Said saplings are easily pulled and should be composted and supplied to SCP-060's normal containment chambers. Additional information. The property containing SCP-060 contained a burned out, secluded house upon Foundation acquisition. According to civilian sources, the house's previous owner was a Jonathan Corr Hill, who was reported to have been a somewhat solitary eccentric with a tendency towards bitterness and nihilism. Mr. Corr Hill was reported as a missing person in late 1996, several months after having suddenly cut off all ties to family members and friends. The last person to have had contact with Jonathan Corr Hill was his brother Christopher, via a telephone call. According to his brother, Corr Hill had developed an interest in the study of Victorian-era occultism. Furthermore, he reported that Jonathan Corr Hill had seemed normal up until the phone call, at which point he told Christopher never to contact him again. Later in the year, a mail carrier visited the home to deliver a notice of foreclosure, finding it instead as a burned-out shell. Examination showed that the fire began in the living room with the general vicinity of the fireplace. It is now assumed that SCP-060 Alpha manifested within the house while Corr Hill burned SCP-060 in the fireplace. Considering SCP-060 Alpha's nature, why the house was not entirely destroyed during this alleged manifestation is as of yet unknown. No human remains were found within the structure. Jonathan Corr Hill's whereabouts and whether he is dead or alive are currently unknown. SCP-065 cannot be moved. It has been contained on site and site has been established around it. Said site has been marked as a government research facility, off limits to civilians, and unauthorized individuals attempting to gain access to the area are to be detained, questioned, and administered a class A amnestic if deemed necessary by site security. An area 17 meters in radius around the center of SCP-065 has been designated the red zone. Personnel may not enter the red zone of SCP-065 at any time. An experimentation with SCP-065 may only be performed with prior approval from at least two level 3 senior research staff. Personnel at high risk of cancer must not be assigned to site and all site personnel must undergo mandatory monthly physical evaluations, including cancer screenings. Description SCP-065 is a spherical region of space, approximately 12 meters in radius, located on a farm near an undisclosed location. SCP-065 was formed by the destruction of an anomalous artifact on site by the Global Occult Coalition. Immediately following this initial event, the radius of SCP-065 was estimated to have initially expanded to 108 meters in radius, resulting in the deaths of 11 GOC operatives and five civilians. Since containment by the Foundation, the effective radius of SCP-065 has shrunk to and remained stable at its current size. SCP-065 causes abnormal transfiguration of any living organism within its area of effect. These effects include but are not limited to Regression of specialized cells to an undifferentiated stem state Spontaneous separation and fusion of undifferentiated cells Spontaneous necrosis of living tissue and reanimation of dead tissue Rapid genetic mutation of living tissue These effects occur at a rate proportional to the mass and complexity of the organism. Plants and insects show few, if any, effects. Small animals will exhibit alterations following several days of exposure. Larger animals will show harmful mutations within hours, and all human subjects exposed to the red zone have been fatally altered within approximately 15 minutes of exposure. To date, all attempts at directly observing the center of SCP-065 have failed, as SCP-065 causes a form of extreme sensory confusion in all observers that extends to recording equipment. Effected personnel have reported highly distorted vision and hearing that persists for several hours and can result in severe dizziness and nausea. Addendum 065-1 Researcher note Onward, a robotic rover designed to use somatosensory rather than visual or acoustic navigation managed to reach the center of SCP-065 and retrieve several objects. When pieced back together, these objects appeared to be the shattered fragments of a stone figurine of Cocopelli, a Native American fertility deity. Along with pre-incident data obtained from the Global Occult Coalition, it appears that this artifact has been used by the civilian family to boost the yield of their farm, and only came to the attention of the GOC when an investigation by the United States Department of Agriculture revealed genetic markers in their supposed organic crops, consistent with those of genetically modified organism, or GMO, crops. The GOC attempted an on-site destruction of this artifact, resulting in the creation of SCP-065. Following this incident, the GOC contacted a foundation liaison and requested assistance in containing the resultant anomaly. Dr. Re… Addendum 065-2 The following document was recovered from the formerly civilian-owned farmhouse at Scythe- John. I heard things aren't going so well back at home. I wish it could come back and help right now, but it's tough over here right now as well, and we're on the verge of some important discoveries. I know it's not much, but I found this during the trip. The man who gave it to me described it as, a representation of that which is, and that which might be, planted by the cornfield, and hopefully it will help make ends meet. See you soon, G. Item Number SCP-139 Containment Class Eparc Disruption Class Dark Special Containment Procedures Containment Suspended Description SCP-139 designates the disappearance of Lucian Sacks, formerly a Foundation Employed Security Specialist. Sacks had, until SCP-139's occurrence, acted as a consultant for Site-97 on the matter of esoteric reanimation methodology. SCP-139 is considered anomalous, both due to a persistent info hazard encountered following its occurrence, and due to the cutoff of information pertaining to SCP-139 after April 4, 1978. Despite Site-97's best efforts, neither Sacks's past or present whereabouts, nor the location of a cadaver, have been uncovered. Extra-dimensional travel is suspected, but not confirmed. No primary suspects which could be responsible for SCP-139 have been identified, owing to the largely inconclusive results of investigative efforts. As such, SCP-139 is currently considered a cold case, and is expected to continue indefinitely. Timeline of Events March 5, 1978 Sacks clocks in at Site-97 and declines usual chatter with personnel at the front entrance. He enters his office, and does not exit for the remainder of the work day. For a period of 12 hours, Sacks queries 42 skip-net entries, pertaining to thaumaturgic workings, global layline activity, and available research into way and knock techniques. This idle activity contradicts his otherwise exemplary productivity record, and raises concern among Site-97's staff. Sensor agents are dispatched appropriately. No further abnormalities occur until Sacks has punched out and arrived at his residence in suburban Albany. By 10.45 pm, he vacates his residence, presumably on foot to avoid detection, and exits the city limits. March 6, a paper trail of bus and train tickets suggests he traveled approximately 2,000 km to Topeka, Kansas, arriving at 12.15 pm.  March 7 to April 4, after Topeka, the paper trail terminates, and reports of Sacks's location during the following month become increasingly irregular. A car he is believed to have rented is sited in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Lubbock, Texas, on March 10 and March 15 respectively, although the windshield and rightmost tail light shattered between the two cities. He is last documented in Tucson, Arizona, after residential police implicate him in a resistant flee incident on suspicions of vagrancy. Note, this police report was filed on April 3 at 3.48 am, and is considered the last documented sighting of Lucien Sacks by the public. On April 4, sensor agents embedded within the Tucson USPS removed the following letter from the mail pool, to the ones I'm running from, I hate you. I hate what you've done and what you're doing to me, and what I think you did to the others who ran.  I'm curious by trade, but you've really got me beat. I'm not the first to run, but I might be the first to break free. I'm going someplace without cameras or fingerprints, someplace you can't follow. It was fun while it lasted, but you lost this one, and soon I'll be back, and you're going to lose more. The hand has always been welcoming to people like me, anyways. Addendum 139-1 SCP-137 officially concluded on April 27, 1993, when a minor structural failure revealed a small air pocket within Site 97's concrete foundation. Although this led to a temporary lockdown due to the destruction of Site 97's courtyard, integrity was eventually restored. Models of the air pocket prior to the structural failure indicate it resembled a prostrate human body, fitting Lucian Saxe's height and build. After the initial excavation, the following personal effects were discovered. The necrotic flesh of a heavily decayed human cadaver, and several human bones, most pulverized by the aforementioned structural failure. A foundation keycard for a Site 97 security specialist, ID numbers scratched out, suggesting deep shame. A forbidden thaumaturgic ritual to preserve its user's spirit after their death. A map of layline positionings in the contiguous United States, often referenced by enemies of the foundation. A circle had been drawn around a nexus on the U.S.-Mexico border near Tucson, Arizona. Saxe's cause of death is believed to be terminal dehydration, following several days of entombment. During the investigation of this air pocket, Site 97 excavators punctured a secondary cutout hidden within the concrete, due to the considerable strain that excavation would put on Site 97's foundation. This cutout has not been analyzed extensively. What can be determined, however, is that it contains a large number of partially decomposed human eyes, believed to exceed 1,000 in total. Perforations within the concrete would have allowed these eyes to observe their target on all sides until he expired. Archived containment procedures. SCP-139 Omega is presently being tracked, observed, and hounded by Site 97 deep cover personnel. Via unanimous 05 vote, the Tucson-Layline bridge has been rerouted to Site 97's foundation for the interim. Update. Greater containment defectuated. Protocol. All eyes on Lucian rescinded. Project loose ends in progress. Site 97's full capabilities have been directed towards the neutralization of SCP-139 Omega, who remains at large post-mortem via knowledge it has stolen from Site 97. Following a breach of its containment area beneath Site 97, SCP-139 Omega has demonstrated robust mobility and incorporeality, rendering it difficult to track and recontain. Fortunately, it has a habit of sticking its nose in places it does not belong. Note. Ethics Committee review of SCP-139 Omega's containment procedures have generated unanimous approval. Overwatch Command is in agreement. SCP-139 Omega's crimes are many and unforgivable. Site 97 took SCP-139 Omega in. They provided it with safety, community, and purpose, and it has shunned all of those. This is why on the other side of that way, it found nothing but concrete damnation and the all-seeing eye. Item Number SCP-156 Object Class Euclid Special Containment Procedures SCP-156 is to be kept in refrigerated storage unit 19c, except when removed for experimentation. Subjects infected by SCP-156 are to be restrained and monitored for their own safety. From September 21st to March 21st, infected subjects should be kept within a secure storage unit unless the experiment's parameters indicate otherwise. Both storage facilities should be monitored by security camera. The termination and autopsy of D-Class personnel assigned to SCP-156 should be delayed until after March 21st. No personnel are permitted to consume SCP-156, except D-Class personnel unless approved by a Level 3 staff member. Description SCP-156 is a group of exactly 181 pomegranate aerals. The number of instances of SCP-156 is constant. When one is ingested or destroyed, it is replaced instantaneously with a new one, among the largest group of contiguous instances. Otherwise, the instances can be moved around freely. After leaving the group, i.e. after an instance is touching no other instance, the instance will spoil normally, after which a new instance will appear. When all instances are destroyed simultaneously, all 181 instances reappear randomly at the location of one of the destroyed aerals. Attempts to measure the time between destruction of one instance and the appearance of a new one using high-speed cameras have so far failed. If SCP-156 is ingested between March 21st and September 20th, subjects display no signs of infection until noon of September 21st, when all vital processes abruptly cease. A similar effect is observed immediately when SCP-156 is ingested after September 21st. Despite being technically dead, post-mortem examinations of subjects have been unable to discover a cause of death. Subjects appear to have been in perfect health, aside from any pre-existing conditions. While dead, subjects do not show any signs of decomposition, though the bodies of many subjects begin displaying bruising and scarring consistent with torture. While the majority of subjects suffer these wounds, not all do, and no reliable formula has been discovered to predict which subjects will be affected. Infected subjects remain in this dormant state until noon of March 21st, when life processes restart. Subjects remember little of the intervening time period. While most subjects are entirely unaware that any time has passed since their apparent death, some claim to recall a pale white male face and a wilting pomegranate tree. Subjects continue to die and reanimate annually on September and March 21st respectively, until killed by another cause. Reanimation only occurs from deaths caused by ingesting SCP-156. After undergoing a single death reanimation cycle, subjects begin displaying high levels of distress and paranoia as time approaches September 21st, even if they have not been made aware of the death reanimation cycle. Furthermore, subjects will take extreme lengths to avoid taking any sort of risk or danger to their person, even if they had displayed risk-taking behaviors prior to ingesting SCP-156. Over the course of multiple death reanimation cycles, these psychological symptoms become more pronounced. At the same time, physical symptoms during the dormant period increase in intensity for the subjects suffering from them. Eventually, physical wounds on subjects will begin to emulate burns and puncture wounds. Many subjects gain a phobia of dogs and dead plants after 3-5 reanimations. After several deaths caused by SCP-156, the ocular tissue undergrows necrosis in many subjects. This tissue does not reanimate with the rest of the body. Often, after 10 or more reanimations, reanimation of bodily processes will occur, but the subject will fail to regain consciousness, entering a comatose state. Death and reanimation continues annually, even after subjects have reached this stage. SCP-156 came to the attention of the Foundation after an incident in Greece, after several people died on September 21, 19 without apparent cause. The Foundation became involved after locals reported the return of several of the dead, who had been interred in above-ground vaults the following spring. After questioning these subjects, all reported having attended a party at the House of One AK, who had been buried and was found asphyxiated in her coffin. SCP-156 was discovered within the house, fresh, despite the intervening six months since the incident. Testing commenced on D-Class personnel. D-E15624, the first test subject, died in September and was autopsied. No cause of death could be found. Subject was left under monitoring and storage. In March of the same year, subject began to show brain activity, and subject's heart began beating, despite the body having taken significant damage during the autopsy. D-E15624 expired shortly thereafter, without regaining consciousness. Errol's given SCP status and longer-term testing was ordered.


Morality is about other people. It's about making their lives better It's not about yourself and indeed another term for morality often is be selfless be selfless, and if you're selfless That's virtue that gets you into heaven. That's a positive view of life Are you selfless in capitalism? Is anybody selfless in the marketplace? No I you know, I don't say okay. I feel like sacrificing today, so I'll overpay a whole mentality And we live these dual lives. I think a whole mentality is no I want to get a good deal


August is hot, and so are the savings at Appalachian Wireless, where all smartphones are 50% off. Even the 64, 128, and 256-gig models, two-year agreement required. Better service, bigger savings. That's today's Appalachian Wireless and East Kentucky Network Company. Many schools across our region are dismissing early or closing on Monday due to safety concerns during the solar eclipse. Those closed include Perry County, MacGuffin County, Letcher County, Jenkins Independent, Brethit County, and Martin County. Those dismissing early include Pike County, Floyd County, Johnson County, Paintsville Independent, Mingo County, and Logan County Schools. Pikeville Independent and Jackson Independent will be on regular schedule. Nott County has still not decided. Many schools acquired safety glasses for students to participate in learning activities that day. However, once those glasses were delivered, they didn't meet safety guidelines. The safety of the students is our number one concern, and we feel that with the glasses we can actually acquire. It's just not a good situation. Officials warn if the certification ID ISO 12312-2 is not printed on your safety glasses, they could be a knockoff brand and could cause damage to your eyes. Officials add welding goggles with the number 14 can also be used to view the eclipse. While many schools will be closed during the eclipse, there are still learning opportunities across the region. The East Kentucky Science Center will be open from noon until five Monday free of charge. We're going to open up the science center here to also give people a chance to see the Hubble exhibit because it's been here for several months, but it's leaving after September 9th. We'll also try to have the eclipse up on the planetarium dome webcast from NASA so that if people wanted to see what it looks like a totality they would. We're also going to be giving out eclipse glasses and a variety of other pinhole viewers that we got from NASA and other organizations to anyone that shows up. The University of Pikeville will also be hosting events throughout the day. It's not just from the standpoint of the university and the students here, it's the standpoint of the entire public around us in our region because the university's had a long history of outreach to the schools and to the community and doing science projects and activities and summer programs, you know, with our medical school and with undergraduates as well. And so this is just a wonderful opportunity for us to get out and share our expertise and our campus with everyone else. For a list of UPIKE's events and times, log on to upike.edu.
