Hello everyone, welcome to the next lecture in the topic remote sensing data, data portals and processing tools. In the last lectures, we are discussing about the various remote sensing data sets and saw few examples of what we can get from the multiple remote sensing satellites that are available. And also some of the commonly used data portals from which we can download the data that also I have introduced you all. So feel free to explore those portals on your own in your free time and try to use the max to the maximum extent. So we discussed some of the commonly used data portals in the last lecture like Earth Exploder, Booven, Mosdag, they are all very widely used. There are like even other portal, simple data portals which are often not known but again provide some data access to us. So one is the Glovis portal, globevis.us.gov given here. So a browse based viewer where we can visualize the software basically which is available especially Landsat, Hyperion which is a hyperspectral data, Sentinel-2, Global Landsat, it is basically like a visualization platform primarily. Then also we can have a look at like Landsat data using what is known as a Landsatlook.usgs.gov which is that allows rapid online viewing and access to Landsat archive and Sentinel-2 data. So even before downloading the data, we may have to just take a look at how the data is. Say I need to download the data but if half of my image is covered with cloud, I may not download interested in downloading it right. So such visualization is also really important when you are searching for data. Without visualization, downloading may be a waste thing like after downloading if we realize the data is fully covered with cloud, it is like a waste of the download and all the data we used up right. So visualization actually helps us even before downloading we can check it. These two portals are primarily visualization tools but still we can use. But within the common data portals itself it is available but I just thought of telling you this. So with this again we finish our discussion about like the data portals then we will move on to data analysis tools that are available to us. So now we have discussed about data from where to download data. But before we use the data using all the principles we learned, we need some tools to use right. So those tools range from freely available open source tools to extremely expensive commercial products. Each tool varies in their capacity or capability to process certain kind of data, only certain kind of processing on algorithms can be run on software all these things. So we have like a very wide spectrum of processing tools. But also nowadays with the advent of programming languages where most of the students are interested in doing programming it is always easy to process data on our own like GOTF data, HTF data, whatever different formats I told it is very easy to use some sort of programming language like Python or Matlab to open them to visualize them to code them. But even without coding capabilities we can process the data. But some sort of processing tool is always needed as a interface when we want to use the data. Without processing tool the data will be there lying idle and in order to get maximum benefit out of the data definitely we need a tool. So that is what we are going to see. Lot of commercial vendors are there, commercially available products are there. Some of the famous commercial products that we can use for remote sensing image analysis are like ERDAs, Imagine, NV even like RGS which is like a very famous GS software we can use it for like remote sensing image analysis to like a very good extent and so on. So these are all commercial products but these products normally will be available in research institutes and academic institutes where the students and researchers will have access to it we need to purchase a license to them and do it. But as a common man say normally we as an individual cannot purchase licenses to the software and they may be expensive only for certain projects or something we can purchase license or for academic reasons we can purchase license. But if as an individual if I am interested in doing some remote sensing analysis is there any tool available means yes there are again plenty of tools available starting from just visualization to large scale processing. So we have like lot of opportunities now that is why even in the first lecture of the topic I think two lectures back I told you this is like a golden era for remote sensing earth observation because of the variety of opportunities that lies in front of us. So among all the tools that are available to us we are going to discuss only two of them one is a snap toolbox and another one is Google earth engine. So snap toolbox is we can it is kind of like a software we can download it install it in our computers locally download all the data process it in our machine it or everything happens locally in our machine we have to download everything whereas Google earth engine which is becoming famous rapidly in the last few years like within last 10 years it has gained tremendous popularity and even many global applications are using this particular cloud based platform. So Google earth engine is kind of like one of the most powerful tool available in cloud where we need not download anything it provides us a good interface where we can just see the data process it in the cloud and get the outputs. So we will get briefly introduced to two of these like these two data processing tools. The first one we are going to see is snap sentinel application platform developed by European Space Agency as like a free and open source platform for remote sensing data processing and analysis. Basically it was developed to process the data from sentinel satellites sentinel 1, 2, 3 but in addition to sentinel 1, 2, 3 missions all other commonly used satellites data also can be processed within this tool. So it is again it is a software we have to download and install it. So when you search for snap toolbox we will have different options like we can download the tool only for sentinel 1 which is a SAR mission we can download only that particular toolbox or sentinel 2 which is optical like this we can download the particular toolbox or we can combinedly download everything and download the entire snap toolbox platform and use it for processing everything. See this is kind of like a screenshot taken from the snap toolbox with the option of processing optical data sets. So this is like we have installed like the entire toolbox and here we are displaying what all the different optical data sets that we can use. You can see how many data sets we can use and process within this sentinel toolbox. It is basically sentinel 2 toolbox where we can process optical data. So in addition to sentinel 2 mode is we can process, VR is we can process and spot world view. World view is like a commercial software Landsat which is like freely available one of the most widely used platform OCM 2 which is like Indian remote sensing satellite that is available. So many different data products from different satellites if they are in optical domain it can be processed within this particular toolbox. But processing means what? Generally there is like a separate course digital image processing or which is offered to the students which talks about the various processing that one can do. You can just open the data visualizer. It is kind of like a processing. You can visualize the data you can what to say removing the data of atmospheric effect. We have seen certain steps right how to atmospherically correct the data that is again a data processing. If we have certain tools it will do processing for us or we learnt about different spectral vegetation indices NDVI, EVI and all. So starting from DN, DN to radiance, radiance to reflectance, reflectance to vegetation indices. It is kind of like a processing chain right everything can be done within the tool. You can open the data and do all the processing. So step by step the sequential processing can happen within this particular software. So it is kind of like a platform where we can do this processing. So this is possible within this SNAP tool. So here this is an example for optical datasets. Similarly this slide tells us the different SAR sensors like synthetic aperture radiometer sensors sorry not synthetic aperture radar. I am sorry it is not a radiometer synthetic aperture radar active remote sensing sensors which we can use. Sentinel-1 which is like freely available apart from it. RadarSAT, TerasRX, TandemX, AllosPulsar, ERS, NVSAT there are like many different synthetic aperture radar data that are available. Some of them are commercial, some of them are freely available which we can download and use. Again processing can be done within this tool like I told you right we can download the data convert the data from slant range to ground range converting the amplitude information into backscattering coefficient like in radar imagery we will be interested in calculating sigma or not backscattering coefficient that is possible. So all these processing steps we can do. We can like do speckle filtering like speckle effect we have seen what it does noisy grainy pattern in the image like pepper and salt pattern that can be removed using some sort of filters all these kinds of processing can be done within the snap toolbox. So snap toolbox offers us powerful option to do most of the commonly done analysis with respect to remote sensing images and this is like available completely for free which we can install in our computers and use it. But remember everything happens locally. So our machine should be machine means computer should be good enough to install the software and run. If we have like a old generation computer the software may not run or when you try to open a Sentinel-2 data in like a normal laptop like normally what we use it for online classes it may not be enough. So some good quality laptop or a computer may be needed when we want to process the data or it is good to have like a normal desktop computer with moderate capacity to run this particular thing. Anyway the if you like search about like the snap toolbox you will get information about like the basic system requirements and what are other things we need. But installation is extremely simple just with the click we can install and even processing is simple with lot of manuals available. Help files are there, manuals are there which we can read on our own understand and do it. So the final thing we are going to see in this topic is the Google Earth Engine. So Google Earth Engine is a cloud based geospatial processing platform which is designed for global scale environment data analysis. So it is kind of like revolutionizing the way we are doing remote sensing data processing. Now most of the large scale projects working in global level have moved to this Earth Engine platform because normally say I want to analyze data for the entire globe means I should have a powerful computer which can store all the data and should be capable of processing all the data. So it needs some capital investment. But if everything happens through cloud means I can just have a normal computer as the cloud to work for me that is possible right because the cloud it means like the server and the computing power rests somewhere and just kind of like using a client I am just initializing it and analyzing the results sitting in the comfort of our home or offices without the need to do large scale capital investment and developing the infrastructure. That is the advantage of having Google Earth Engine. It has see like many different scientific papers are coming out global forest mapping using Google Earth Engine, Google Earth Engine for agricultural applications, Google Earth Engine for flood mapping, many different things are coming up which is kind of slowly changing the way how we do remote sensing data analysis. But it is not the one-stop solution I will say, but it has a very huge capability to do it. So it allows us to visualize, manipulate, edit or create spatial data in easy and fast way. It has access to more than 30 years of historical imagery and other scientific data sets. If you want Landsat data it is available, mode is data available. If you want data from some re-analysis product say some modeled atmospheric outputs available. So everything is available within this portal we need not download them actually we cannot download the data sets we can just open them in the cloud whatever processing we have to do we can do it get the outputs maybe the final maps and all we can store and use it for further analysis. So we can it is not only a data portal like data portal means visualizing and accessing the data, but it also acts as a processing tool. It provides powerful APIs, application programming interfaces using either JavaScript language or Python programming language. If we are familiar in any one of the language even like a basic introduction to those languages will help us we will be able to do whatever programming we want to do data analysis. So the basic framework to do all the thing is there. So Google earth engine provides us with a code editor. So the code editor is kind of like an online IDE integrated development environment. So IDE is nothing but a place where many different things can be combined and done in one go. Okay you can like code you can like analyze everything. So this provides like an integrated environment where you can open the data visualize it run your codes see the output everything can be done in one particular place. Also it has capability to upload our own data sets. So I have collected some data from ground. I want to merge it with other satellite data sets which is possible. I can upload the data to my own portal within this cloud platform analyze on my own get the results that is possible. And for most of the academic and research purposes they provide free access. We have to first register for this. Once we register like you can always search for like a Google earth engine code editor. Once we have a Google account we can just go register for it and request an access. If we are from any academic or research organization they will immediately grant access within a few days. Once we have it we can access the code editor and do our analysis. Say this is how a basically a Google earth engine screen may look. So this portion is actually the map where we can see the map. If you want to open a satellite image say I am opening a satellite image over Mumbai it will be displayed like this here. So all these things is possible or if I have some output I can see my output being displayed here. So that is possible. This is a script manager. So the script manager tells us what are all the different codes that we have written or what are all the different codes that are available to us. There are like plenty of different pre-written codes available. We need not write everything from scratch. Say to calculate NDVI we can just call a function to do land use, land cover classification. We can just call a function. Everything is possible within this. It provides us with lot of documentation, API documentation which are kind of like help files we can read and understand the algorithms. Asset manager basically whatever we create we call it as asset we can store it see them. Like I am creating one particular code to what to say analyze all the satellite data set to capture drought prone areas. So that is one asset. So now next I am creating another asset to map land use, land cover that is possible all the thing it is done. It has a search bar which we can use to search data sets or places. This get link button. So the get link is say whatever we write code here we have to write here. This is the code editor basically all the codes we will write here. If we want to share the code with someone else this is this won't be publicly available whatever we write will be available only within our Google account login. If I want to share this with someone else like we are working as a team I am writing a small code snippet means I can get the link and share they will have access to this. So that get link is kind of like a sharing tool and then save button to save the script run to run the script and all. This shows us the console output tells us whatever output we are asking say print something it will print and all. We can inspect all the values or objects that are displayed on the map and everything. So this is what I have told us like IDE. So it provides us like a complete environment. You can do your coding here, you can do your visualization here, you can observe your or check your variables in this console whatever you need some sort of codes it is available here. So it is kind of like a huge collection of data as well as data processing tools. So the map geometry tools are available like you can pan the map, you can move, you can zoom in, you can pinpoint a location that things are available here label number 12. So this is like very basic introduction to Google earth engine. In addition to this we can there is a open source GIS software called QGIS which is again like freely available open source which is also we can use it for some sort of like data processing we can use it. It is also like a GIS software where which we can use it for analysis purposes. So there are like plenty of options available. We need not as an individual user we need not go for a commercial vendor but commercial software provides us lot of flexibilities many different capabilities that are not there here I accepted. But as I told you some of it may be expensive and as an individual we may not have access to them. So under such circumstances these openly available tools will come to our aid. So as a summary in this class we discussed about two of the commonly used data processing tools snap engine and Google earth engine. So altogether in the last two to three lectures we discussed about different data sets, data portals and data processing tools. So it is kind of like a providing you an introduction to this is like a big field okay this itself is like a very big field like if I want to talk about like data different data processing and how to do it that itself will require separate course. So the aim of this particular course remote sensing course is to provide you introduction. We have dealt with the theoretical concepts all the physical fundamentals that are required by a remote sensing student has been given to you the basics at least. Now we also got introduced to different data sets the portals from which you can download the data and some processing tools. So now we will move on to the applications part. So where we combine these data sets using downloaded using this data portals processed using these tools along with our physical concepts that we have learned using those principles what we have already learned how to use this data for various applications. So that is what we are going to see in the last part of this course. So the application part will be the last part and we will be starting it from the next lecture. With this we end this particular lecture. Thank you very much.


Good afternoon. I'm Teresa Wilson Columbia City Manager and as we did yesterday and will hopefully continue to do weather permitting We are here with all of our partners Agency partners the county and others to continue to brief our public on our Preparations for hurricane Florence. We are hoping and praying for the best But certainly prepared for the worst in the event that things take a turn tomorrow We want to ensure to the public that all city and county service delivery is intact and ready to go Which it is and we know that many of our partners also have some pertinent updates for the public So as we will continue to do we want to give you real-time information also Recognizing the wonderful work that the state EMD is doing as they finish their presser We hope to to bring this information to you on a live local basis as well with the Midlands impact Keeping that a priority for you at this time We will let mere Steve Benjamin give some opening comments and updates and as we did yesterday We will go through updates with many of our partners who have joined us today and have follow-up question and answer Thank you We'll work to keep things very concise So I continue to be incredibly impressed By our team here to see the Columbia our partners at Richland County incredible Education leaders who've taken things to a like a whole not a level Recognizing that they serve the needs of the entire child entire family Feeding and sheltering our citizens from here in Richland County But also our friends from all around the state who are visiting us in this time of of great need We're gonna follow the same protocol as Yesterday many of you know that hurricane Florence is currently a cat one hurricane. I'm still very dangerous seeing the Devastation that's happening on our coast right now 75 mile power winds Moving west at six miles per hour a slow moving storm which gives us all great concern for a number of different Reasons right now. It's located 35 miles Southwest of Wilmington, North Carolina We still expect the storm to be here Between Saturday and Sunday. We're gonna get some showers tonight and some heavy winds We all feel them outside already and we expect heavy downpours all day tomorrow Well into the night and then again on Sunday with rain continuing into into Sunday night, I will say this and I'm gonna pass on to Our subject matter experts our law enforcement officers and emergency Responders I know our superintendents are gonna speak on behalf of the school districts for the updates and John ando From the comet. I'm so thankful to be surrounded by my colleagues on on on city council counsel Mr. McDowell I miss a Duval mr. Davis mayor pro tem divine Mr. Rickman and of course our senior leader mr. Davis Surrounded by our friends on the Richland County council as well Norman Jackson and Jim Manning Miss McBride and I know some of our other members couldn't be here out of town or tending to the needs In their respective areas or at their homes our leaders from Richland school district to a chairman Craig Excuse me a new chair chair a woman and then your Mac Mackey former chair Craig Plank and I think those are the two commissions from Richland to of course our commissioners from Richland school district district one I'm able chairwoman share a Harris and I'm not sure if mr. Divine is here with us now if Mrs. Divine is here I may or pretend that mr. Divine is probably with their children so Someone's got to take care of home right right mom and obviously Our superintendent is here as well our superintendents from both both districts We're always very happy to have a leader of the comet with us John Ando and Representing our robust and strong business community Carl Blackstone the president CEO of the Columbia Chamber of Commerce Everyone else on the program. I think you're probably gonna hear from did I miss anything or I miss anyone? Harry will try not to speak but I would say Harry tinsley and I know that the city manager will reiterate Is amazing Professional we're so thankful to have his leadership here and also I'm happy to have Dalton Tresmen represent in the office of congressman Jim Coburn He's been president in all of our Meetings every day we've been meeting to go over the issues of the day get an update and make sure we're continuing to prepare For this ever-changing storm. So thank you all for being here. I think I've covered everything and everyone It was important for me to know then of course Tiffany. Thank you for being here with John as well Because it's important that our citizens know in this time of great need that we're all working together They were all working together in our collective interests and when we communicate. It's amazing. We can get done I believe that in the response of hurricane Joaquin. We responded well recovered. Well, you learn from those Experiences, however how to prepare even better and constant communication helps us prepare for whatever may come So we're preparing and and we're praying so Thank you Madam city manager and we pass it off to our police chief skip Holbrook. Please Thank You mayor It's a privilege to be part of this team to work with our trusted partners to keep our citizens safe We are at a high state of readiness As I mentioned yesterday We've all of our pre-storm requests have been met I'm also also warm personnel. That's administrative personnel Criminal investigations division Everybody starts on 12-hour shifts tonight We'll work closely with the Sheriff's Department on response teams just like we did in in 15 Again, we we want to emphasize as this storm starts to unfold here locally We ask that everyone stay off the roadway. I'll keep the roads open so we can respond to assist when necessary and If you see water don't drop through water That is a just a huge risk and we have barricades pre-stage But there are always areas that may pop up that we may not have something pre-stage. So Stay off the roadways and avoid hot water. Thank you Our joint search and rescue teams are positioned and they're ready to go. So we're just sitting back and waiting If any of our citizens have to leave their homes and go to a shelter I want them to be assured that they're gonna go to a safe environment We've got soldiers from the South Carolina State Guard and we'll have look our law enforcement people will be there Protecting those that in shelters. So I don't want anybody to be afraid to go to a shelter It is a very safe environment. I went and visited Ridgeview today Saw there. We had soldiers on duty there, you know, everybody's just sitting there waiting and riding this storm out So, you know, I think that's very important to understand that that we're ready law enforcement's ready Our military here with the South Carolina State Guard is ready. We're gonna protect you We're gonna protect you if you have to go to a shelter. We're gonna protect your home We're going to protect your property also This is a joint effort and we've got a big team and we're ready to respond Again, you know, we worked together. This is not a situation where we want to work together We must rather be training together than working in this situation but just one in mind everybody just watch out for those down power lines and If your lights do go out, just make sure that you know, I keep hearing over and over people telling people use counters That's something that we just want to shy away from make sure you get flashlights We are ready to respond. We'll be putting our Tree folks on duty tonight at seven o'clock. So we have the downed trees We're we want to make sure that There's the response can get through those roads if we have the downed trees Tomorrow, we'll be putting on our swift water rescue Teams to make sure that we do have those heavy rains and floods that we can get to folks So if anything occurs always remember dial 911 call 911 and So that we can come out to assist you. We should want to make sure that everybody is safe Again, we have a pair. We're working with our partners We're partnering up with the police department and the sheriff department to effect those rescue So just be a visit and be watchful during the storm Good afternoon On behalf of Columbia water I want to just let our customers know that that we have implemented our emergency preparedness plans And we're ready We're I'm really proud of our staff and the level of preparedness that we have for for what may come in terms of heavy rainfalls and wind event Our staff supplies and equipment have been pre-positioned We're going to be utilizing technology to the maximum extent possible to keep our employees safe While we remotely monitor the conditions within our operating systems our water and wastewater distribution and collection systems We're going to monitor during the storm And we're going to respond to issues as soon as it's safe to get our folks out and in the field and responding So employees safety and the caring for our staff is very important as well Finally, I want to just mention if for any non-emergency related concerns or our service request If if our citizens will please call our customer care hotline at<PHONE_NUMBER> We will log that that issue and respond as soon as it's safe to do so. Thank you I also want to say from a public work standpoint that we've prepared For the last week we've prepared for our stormwater systems to make sure they're clean as we talked about yesterday We over the past few days. We've planned we've planned our response now. It's time to respond So our crews are ready. They're trained and they're ready to respond in case of an emergency I don't think we can stress safety enough and the safety that we talk about is down power lines down power lines Can be lapped wrapped around a tree lemon if the power goes out that line may still be energized Leave that job to the professionals. Let them take care of that make the call to the 545 3300 number so our staff can respond also do not drive through flooded waters. We don't want anybody hurt. Thank you Good afternoon first and foremost the safety of our passengers staff and operators are of primary concern With that said as you're aware, we suspended service yesterday September 13th at 5 30 p.m. Transit service does remain suspended until further notice this allows us to Be ready to utilize our vehicles if there are any evacuation needs that occurred during this emergency We'll continue to keep the public informed through the media through our hotline at<PHONE_NUMBER> at our website at catch the comment at org through social media Facebook Twitter and Instagram at catch the comment and through our trans look app And we encourage folks to please check those regularly to know about service restoration We'll continue to work with first responders and the officials of the city of Columbia Richland and Lexington counties and we thank them for their work in this challenging environment Good afternoon as stated yesterday, we do pride ourselves in working with local law enforcement both in the city of Columbia and also Richland County and that being said Richland one has Agreed to provide shelter service when needed at lower Richland High School and also AC Flora High School We will be working again with law enforcement as Sheriff lot has stated in terms of of staging and staffing Making sure that that those facilities and that that environment is safe and secure If and when needed also want to say thank you to again to the administrators and teachers that have been providing meals and services for students these last few days and As the governor had indicated earlier in the week, you know the school systems Multiple school systems are closed and that was until further notice so we will continue to monitor the situation through the weekend and through the First of next week to see what we hear either from the governor's office or How the situation evolves throughout this weekend. Thank you I Stated by Superintendent dr. Witherspoon our school districts and the school districts in the millions continue to be closed by order of the governor It's important that you stay abreast of Up-to-date information by following the school districts At their various social media websites or mediums of Facebook Twitter Instagram and of course the district's web pages Our maintenance staffs in Richland to have prepared our schools For the storm or we cleared out debris In any obstruction or objects that may be out or lose to secure those items to make sure that they don't blow out into the street and cause any other further distractions or Unsafe issues of we've had a total of about 82 evacuees right now at Richview High School We will continue the Red Cross will continue to accept evacuees as long as conditions are safe And that they're able to safely get there and be allowed to enter but please show up if you should need Shelter that location is at 48 48 oh one Heart Scrabble Road. That's again 48 oh one heart Scrabble Road We continue to provide lunches for our students as well as mills for those evacuees That are seeking shelter at at the Ridgeview Location as well as Dent Middle School for our students So we're serving lunches at Dent Middle School and Ridgeview High School We're also providing meals for those individuals who are in the shelter at at Ridgeview High School We sent out about 50 backpacks We sent our social workers assisted us in getting some emergency backpack items out into some of the more Remote areas and areas where students may not have the ability to get to those locations I will provide them with additional meals and supplies to help them during the storm And again depending on the impact of the storm over the weekend will continue to monitor monitor the weather And listening for any updates from the governor's office regarding the closing of schools or the opening of schools I want to take an opportunity to again also think our Richland to employees our parents our students our board members and all those individuals Administrators who volunteer their time in services to come out to ensure that our students in our schools as well as our community That has evacuated to our locations Are in a safe and secure environment? Their spirits are up and participating Interacting with them as we all prepare to deal with deal with the outcomes of the storm. Thank you Wrap this up and any We're all available for for questions. Obviously we are It's clear we're working together and we we have robust conversations with the hospital systems All of our other service providers homeless service providers Obviously Lexington rich in five also looped into these conversations. So we're working together. We're going to continue doing so Happy to have any any questions that myself So we are the way the sheltering system works per South Carolina Protocol with through EMD the municipalities work through the county So we are in constant communication with Richland County and there are several additional shelters that are being Stood up as we speak and we'll be ready as the county is ready to announce those Obviously Ridgeview as you've heard is is as open as it fills up then additional shelters will come online such as AC floor Laura Richland is as they were mentioned as big Hopefully Red Cross type ready shelters But a lot of churches in our area have already volunteered their services for assistance as well so the the protocol we take is to Stage sometimes depending on what if you remember in the flood of 2015 We have to move people quickly if there's a high water issue or rescue issue Get them moved and then get them safely moved to the shelters that the county makes available to us Absolutely Clint will talk to you again today and probably say what he said yesterday about our headgates So as of yesterday afternoon, we actually closed off our headgate structure So we've we've blocked any inflow into the canal that may be coming in from a high river level Obviously if we have a high-intensity rainfall event within the city itself some of that drainage will go into the canal directly We're prepared for that with the outlet structures to be able to to evacuate that water from the canal System the rock dam is in place. It is very robust solution In the event that something Unforeseen should happen We also have temporary pumps and piping and equipment in place to be able to pump water directly from the river So we are we're in a high state of readiness and preparedness With regard to Richland County and shelters currently open has already been said Ridgeview high school Francis Burns United Methodist Church at 56 16 Farrell Road is currently open and open Scheduled open at 5 p.m. This evening Shannon Baptist Church 52 54th Drive temple of faith 2850 Congruy Road in Gatston Trinity Church at 1501 Holbrook Drive Columbia Washington Street United Methodist Church 1401 Washington Street Grace United Methodist Church 410 Harbison Boulevard and Shandon United Methodist Church at 3407 Divine Street and And a couple of them are pet friendly So if you want more information you can see me after and The public information office has put this out on Facebook and and Twitter a couple hours ago. Thank you Thank you all and thank you all again for doing the important Role that you do and constantly sharing information. We know sometimes it seems repetitive But sometimes folks might not catch it and it's important to keep pushing it out We encourage everyone. Let's enjoy this time. We have with our families right now We got some time off from school some time off from work. That's a cleave to each other And enjoy these brief moments because we're gonna get through this storm We're gonna go back right back to work and back to school very soon. God bless y'all. Thank y'all


Hey, welcome back. It's Kristen from Six Sister Stuff. I am sister number two and today in my kitchen I am making a simple easy recipe that takes no pots or pans So over the holidays when we were growing up, we always had seven layer dip So I was thinking why not turn it into a burrito? So it really is so simple that even kids can put it together All you need is a cutting board a knife and like a spoon to scoop your stuff out and that Is all you can put it together in about five minutes Now if you haven't done so don't forget subscribe to our channel and push that little bell So you can get the notifications every time that we post to YouTube. All right, you guys Let's go make these seven layer dip bean burritos All right One thing I love about this is that you can make it for one person or for a lot of people So I'm making it for my little family So first I'm gonna take refried beans and notice how I just pulled it right out of the can because you'd really don't have to Heat them up. It doesn't matter next. I'm gonna take just a little bit of sour cream I don't like a ton So I just did a little spoonful of it and spread it right next to the beans Then I'm gonna take some guacamole. You can use avocados or guacamole I like to use guacamole because it makes it really easy to put on there So those three were kind of like the base of my burrito. All right next I have chopped spinach You can use other lettuce, but I had spinach then I chopped up some olives and I also chopped up some tomatoes earlier and Just put it right on there if your kids don't like those things You don't have to add them and then of course cheese on top because that's how we make our seven layer dip Then I'm just gonna pull in two of the sides and then roll it all together then when it's done I just cut it in half so they can actually see what's inside of their Seven layer dip burrito so my kids will actually eat it if I hand them one that's closed off. They won't touch it One thing I love about these is that I make sure I always have enough for lunches the next day because it makes school lunches and my husband lunches So easy in the morning Now if you love this recipe be sure to subscribe to our channel at six sister stuff Where you'll find all kinds of recipes and ideas. All right guys. We'll see you later. Bye


Here we go. Here we go. Here we go What is up guys and welcome back to the Johnny Q channel?  It'll be on Tuesdays. Boom. I like that I like the sound of pro tip Tuesdays with Johnny Q I like it the first pro tip Tuesday of the year how to upload a thumbnail to YouTube Okay, so before I upload or make anything regarding my thumbnail What I like to do is take a high quality picture of what I'm doing in the moment So this is what it is before and boom actor. I've made all the final edits. I like the edit It's gonna work as my thumbnail. So let's move on There's two ways of doing this the first way is this you can right click Export these are my settings image format is JPEG I will go right into my desktop so I can actually just see it on the desktop and it's easy to find Quality is 100 color space sRGB Resolution 300 pixels per inch and that's all I do and then I finally export it and boom There is my picture here is the thing with YouTube thumbnails They have to be under 2 megabytes. I believe and if you press command I This picture is 6.7 megabytes. That is a big picture for YouTube So we want to do is resize it to less than 2 megabytes You can either do one of two things you can either export it like what I just did here and then open it in Photoshop or Illustrator or You can also right click the same image thing You can actually edit in Photoshop, which you can do that as well What I will do is is I will open up Adobe Illustrator because I use Adobe Illustrator for my thumbnails. I'll create a new file This is where you have to resize your actual canvas 1080 by 720 and that's the actual specifications for a high-quality thumbnail for your videos with a 1080 pixels Height would be 720 and I'll then I'll go create boom and then this is what I do I simply just drag Command tab go to Illustrator boom drop and as you can see it's way bigger than the actual Canada size So what I'll do is resize edge to edge. I will bring the edge to the next edge here and boom That is my picture. It's kept its quality higher res photo and a 1080 by 720 canvas size image format thumbnail Next what I want to do is go to file then we'll go to export export as then I will say B-roll Thumbnail and oh Thumbnail if I can spell correctly as a PNG I'll save it to the desktop as like I did before I will export it And this is where the resolution really takes place if you set resolution to medium 150 ppi it will be over 2 megabytes same thing goes with high of 300 ppi So what you want to do is screen 72 ppi optimal image size for thumbnails then you press ok And it will be exporting and then you'll see the B-roll thumbnail PNG now when I press command I You'll see up here in the right hand corner right top hand corner 666 Kikobytes kilobytes Kikobytes and then you go to YouTube You go to the upload tab you upload your video your drag and drop for your desktop or your folder whatever you kept your video in and then See how it says maximum file sizes 2 megabytes good thing we filed our big massive file to under 2 megabytes So what a custom thumbnail and then you'll go to the B-roll thumbnail Whatever you chose to call it now it is in the red box and that means it is good to go which means you have a successful Successful thumbnail upload and from there you can fill in your title and your description your tabs and all that stuff It will actually work from there. So boom there you have it I hope this helps you in your journey of YouTube creation videos if you already know this good for you if you don't I'm glad you Learned something hopefully you learned something from this video. I hoped it helped you I will catch you next time on the Johnny K channel. Peace


Okay, I'm kind of an outsider here, don't work with ENCODE at all, but I think about the problems that ENCODE also faces in my own work. My background is actually, I spent 30 years training in biochemistry and studying genome or gene regulation from a mechanistic point of view in the past 15 years doing it on a genomic scale. And as I was listening here, some of the things that really resonated with me was I think Joe mentioned this, but it was sort of the PI vision, and it's really the how of each of these elements. I think when we talk about how do these elements work, we really mean mechanistically, how are they pushing proteins around, how are they working with each other, the whole conglomerate of factors. And when we think about the whole conglomerate of factors, there's sort of one thing that's kind of missing from this whole thing, the elephant in the room, and that is if you get beyond the functional elements themselves, there's a world of factors there. And beyond the chromatin, beyond the sequence specific factors, there's the chromatin regulators. And I know some of these things are covered under ENCODE, but at least from my perspective that they seem to be afterthought, and it's really the primary focus on the sequence specific factors. But you have these vast number of regulators, you have the initiation machinery and the transcription machinery and elongation, all these guys are going to be working together as one mass of complex, and I think it's really important to understand how all of these guys work together, so that's the entirety of it. So when you think about mechanisms, here's a mechanism, a car steering mechanism, and we can think of our bodies as mechanisms, and when things break down you need a mechanic for the car, but for us we need drugs, and how do we get drugs, but we need to understand mechanisms, and how do we get mechanisms, but it brings us all the way back to the top, and the concept of how do we take all this genomic data to get to these mechanisms. And the first phase, really in this process, is called correlations, and we've been doing a lot of that, and that works really well. But correlations is like saying, okay, you have a steering wheel, a rack, a pinion, here's the target, all kind of correlated with each other, they're all in the same place, but that doesn't mean we understand what they do. So we need to go to that next phase, and there's three parts to it that I see, because correlation is not causation. We have to determine causation, and structure and dynamics, and the way I think about it is causation really comes down to making genetic perturbations in the system. So over here, if you took this rack away, well, what happens? Well, these wheels won't turn, but the steering wheel will turn, and the drive shaft and the gear will turn. So we know parts of it will turn, other parts won't. So that's causation, and we'll know what the wheel can do up to this point, and the steering wheel would not be on that, all right? The second is high resolution assays. If you look at this structure here, you can pretty much guess what it does. So if you have a really high resolution view, and I'm talking about base pair resolution view of the genome, you can just get a visual on what it is, and that's going to be quite helpful. And finally, time course, you can get a better sense of how things work when you see them moving and changing with time. But I'd emphasize, I don't think time courses are necessarily causation. They can be along very parallel paths, but not necessarily causation. And really, the whole process of knocking things out and looking down the stream of that may be more effective than causation. I put a red X next to functional assays in states, because at least for me, these concepts, histone, chromium states, and things like that, weren't necessarily resonating with me. Because, in part, they're either out of context or they're rather low resolution. And if we get into things like causation, structure, and dynamics, I think these things fall out from that, that you'll get function, and you'll get more detailed definition, and therefore states go away. So when I think about states, I think about in resolution. Here's sort of an aerial image of actually a schoolyard. And you can get lots of things from it, but at low resolution, I kind of think of chip-sync as this kind of resolution. You get certain types of information to be quite useful about where things are. But the details are kind of lost. If you get much higher resolution, you can get into the details and change the questions that you're asking. You get much more specific, you can see how all the parts fit together. So that was the whole visualization component that I was mentioning. You have the details. And one concrete example of that is Fox-A2 transcription factor. We were doing some of this work with Ken Zarath's lab. And essentially, the chip-exo assay that you can use with exonuclease to chew up the chip data and chew up the borders, so you can get pretty high resolution. And with Ken's lab, we found 35,000 sites for that each one of them with a binding motif. If you blow that region up, you can see that you can get the chip-exo sort of midpoint between the two peak pairs of the exonuclease stock. And each of these columns is a single base pair. So you get really base pair of resolution. You can line this up to the structure of the protein. And in fact, if you just line up the sequence there for each of these columns, you'll see they line up with the nucleotide. So these three green things there, T, T, T, T, you see up here and then this G is the gold. And then finally, this midpoint between the blue and the red is the cross, so you can define it right here. So you get pretty, we use this actually for structural information. It's great when you have the actual crystal structure, because you really need it to interpret the data. So the charge that I had here was about coming up with a proposal, a proposed set of words, all right? And so this is what I'm going to describe to you. And really it comes down to like a proposal, you need to have some background, and then you need to propose an experiment, and things like that, and feasibility. So for this cartoon purposes, these monitors will be the genomes, the ATTG, the epigenomes sit on top of that, that's the blue box, and then the environment. And to me there's really two major factors that one could change in a system. It's either the genetic change or you can end environmental change. That's really all there is if you're talking about doing high sequence sequencing to look at the epigenome. So there's these two types of perturbations. And of course, each one of them creates an epigenome change, and the epigenome change goes on and creates a phenotype. So this is kind of the framework that I think about things. And I want to just use one example here, as in a proposal, you might have some preliminary results. This is our sort of chip-acto-assay of a protein. It doesn't matter what it is. The window here is about 100 base pairs from here to here, just to give you a sense of the framework. And this is promoter regions of a set of genes where this protein is bound. And if you elicit a genetic change, turns out a protein that regulates this thing, the confirmation changes. But it's only at a subset of genes to which this protein is more broadly spread. So through these mutations, we can get a sense of what's happening here mechanistically. Now there's a lot more to this. I'm going to show you in a much more descriptive manner. And I'm going to take this data here, which you're all familiar with, as heat map. I'm going to turn it into an abstraction. And then I'm going to start layering other data sets over it. And how it informs us of mechanisms. And this is what you see here. So for example, there's about 100 genes here. Okay, and it's just average data through. So these one set of genes, another set of genes, and so on. And you have a blue protein bound and this red protein spread across here. And then it's green and the black. And if you actually go through this genotypic change where you actually remove the blue, the red collapses, the green expands out. So this is spatially what happened. But instead, if you went and did an environmental change, the blue also goes away, but the red stays broad and the green goes away. And then this black thing moves in. So there's all sorts of these microscopic or base pair level changes that take place when you go through either knock out a factor and ask what downstream things happen, or you create an environmental change and you ask what downstream events happen. But really what that takes is having a look at the individual proteins at high spatial resolution so you can separate them all from each other. So in terms of a proposal, the idea would be simply, and this is, anybody can think of this as fairly straightforward, you have all your various cell systems. I don't care what they are because, from my perspective, we work in yeast, we work in flies, we work in mouse, we work in humans. I don't really care what the organism is. I just care about mechanisms. I care to understand how all these proteins work together. And fundamentally from yeast to humans, those mechanisms, you can think of them irregardless of the organism. So you take your cell type and now you do your various tools at it that you have. Your dynamics is going to be time points. You can do your CRISPR-Cas9 based solutions. And then plus or minus perturbation.  So part of any proposal requires a budget. And so Ross came up with 800 million. Did you come up with a budget for that Ross? Not enough money in the universe. So get reasonable about it. And this is just sort of a down payment on Ross's proposal. Is to say, okay, well if you took ten cell types and you took three time points through that and five deletions of, let's say, the sequence-specific transcription factors. And you were just trying to look at 22 factors in particular. Of course, you'd need to do replicates. I put three down. You want two to hold, one in case it doesn't work for that asset. So you add that up, you get 22 of these factors right here. And that's about 10,000 assays right there. It seems rather simplistic, but you do the multiplication and it's about 10,000 assays. If you can get it down to $200 an assay plus some fixed costs, you're up to about $3 million just in this project. So these are fictitious numbers, but they're hopefully reasonable. That's the kind of project that may be feasible for one proposal, I would guess. Okay, so now this gets down to sort of my last slide, really. And that is how to actually make this thing happen. And this is kind of, some of this I think, again, I'm sort of an outsider looking at code, so I don't fully understand the details of it. But it strikes me really what you need and have already is just basically a pipeline, data production and processing pipeline. So you make it and then you analyze the data. One idea would be the community samples come in. So they can be anybody who's interested in this or perhaps even to an RFA come in. And I think what really is key for me here is this is a sort of single monolithic pipeline, if you will. That the data comes through, the samples come in, they get processed and they get pushed all the way through. And then finally comes out the other end. This is the rapid release that the community can do analysis on. And the reason why I'm kind of keen on perhaps a monolithic, at least for the purpose of discussion, is because of standards. I think really what's happened over the past many years has been a compromise. Okay, standards were hard to come by. They were years in negotiation, they finally happened. But really they were working progress. And as we go on, I think we need to continue to improve those standards. So we also need to somewhat lock them down and hold different labs accountable that may be processing samples to the various assays. So some of the enabling components, I'm going to get back to this in just a second. But this is what I think that whatever runs the pipeline can control. For example, you have affinity capture. We talked about this today, antibodies. Antibodies can be a real challenge. I've heard Mike that 75% of them in sort of a random test aren't very good. So we need to get a hold of that and maintain strict standards. There's noise minimization, there's spatial resolution that's important. You can use the exonuclease, Mnase, Dnase, Tn5, the mapping five prime, three prime ends of RNA. These are all some important high resolution methods that will give you a spatial picture of what's going on. I think it's important to look at these things in a native context rather than in reporter context because the native is going to be really the proper context in which this thing will be ultimately functioning in. High throughput, that's going to be critical. But I also think of it as true production versus variable compliance. True productivity or processing through, you might think of a car being manufactured in a plant. There's absolute standards. Everything is done the same way. It isn't like one plant might manufacture a car slightly different from a different plant for the same model. So the question is variable compliance. I think that's going to be important. And perhaps finally, this is something I actually gave some thought and I've really waffled on. Should the DCC be maybe something more of a line item? What I mean is should it be open for funding, determine whether it should exist or not? Or should it already determine that this is what we need? And it's going to exist. And really what the RFA should be about is how to improve it, how to adjust it, how to tweak it, how to do all sorts of things with it. But that question is existed, all right? Because I don't think we need something like this and I don't think that will ever go away. And I don't know if it's a good thing to have it pass around, maybe from one academic site to another. It seems to be maybe we really want to lock it into place. Okay, and I'll just turn it over to this. These are some questions that I think Elise sent over to identify. And I'll just leave the answers there and answer any questions that you might have. So Frank, you're proposing the sort of the sequencing center model for this, right?  Yeah, and actually one thing I, I really- Which is sort of different than your $3 million project. Yeah, yeah, actually, so a sequencing center but not necessarily just one. You might have different pipelines here for different assets and I think Encore already does that, right? There's different labs have different specialties and so you can use that. But I really see the central pipeline as the DCC, coordinating not all of it but also setting the standard both in terms of before every aspect of it, a lot more centralized control. Also I bought, when I bought the last time I bought a Toyota, I got the one that was built in Japan, not the US because it was better. Because the doors closed differently. Close fancy and better. You know, Frank, I would say most of that already exists or is in place. Right. Okay, so maybe I'm missing what you're proposing. I guess just to continue doing what we're doing. Yeah, no, no, that's exactly the point. I mean a lot of these things already exist, just from my outside point, these are just independently what I think should happen. They already are there. And the point really is just around the details, improving it, tweaking this, and how it might be centralized. Well, wasn't the community sample input, wasn't that a change? Yeah, well that was part of it. Yeah, right, that's what I'm, yeah.


Liposomes have been studied extensively as potential carriers for hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs. They can be used for a variety of applications such as cancer treatment, antimicrobials, immunomodulators, diagnostics, ophthalmics, vaccines, enzymes, and genetic elements. However, liposomes face several challenges when it comes to drug delivery, including preparation methods, size, stability, and targeting. To address these issues, researchers have developed a new generation of liposomes with improved characteristics. This article was authored by Mehran Alavi, Nazer Karimi, and Masan Safai.


This is the beautiful message for me personally reading the Koran. This worship of Jesus, idolizing a man was taken away from me through the Koran. And this is why out of the sudden I saw a whole new perspective. A true monotheism, concentrating only on God and not on people any longer. Of course, respect the messengers but do not make distinctions between them. This is truly the message that I got from the Koran and was so powerful. But then watching certain youtube videos you see yet again this glorification and indirect worship of messengers which I personally cannot resonate with. Of course, yet again all due respect we have to appreciate the message that came through those messengers but not forget that we have to put our eyes straight onto the path of God.


Hi everyone, Joe for jaskiescasebreaks.com, coming at you with a 2014 Prism Football Pack. Is that Geno Smith hunting in here? We're also giving away nine hit parade spots in this break as well, so you may be able to stumble into a hit parade spot for a fraction of the price. But first, we're gonna do the break itself. Big thanks to this group for getting into it. All 32 are in. Let's roll it, let's randomize it. One and a two, three times. One, two and three. Got Jimmy down to Michael. One and a two, three times for the teams. One, two and three. After three times, we got the blue horseshoes down to Skull. I like that TJ Hawkinson pickup for the Vikings. I thought that was a nice move for them and my fantasy team. Here's the first half of the list right here. And there's the second half of the list right there. Kevin with the Jets. Our no trade windows, let's sort by team alphabetically and let's print and rip. What a blast from the past, where I don't know where we dug these up. Here's the final print out. Marquise Lee Rookies. We got a head to head card, which I guess will randomize, a Johnny Menzel rookie card. It's Jason Marrett. Remember Zach Mettenberger? There's, oh man. I remember Stonehand's Daenerys Moore. He should have been a defensive back. The Johnny Menzel, for whatever that's worth. We'll go to Aaron and the Browns. And the bonus packs, the red, white and blues, Chris Johnson, Christian Ponder, and Terry Bradshaw. All right, now let's do a couple quick randomizers here. We'll use one dice roll for both lists. We've got the Niners and Detroit for that head to head card, Jerry Rice and Calvin Johnson. And of course, who's gonna win those hit parade spots? That hit parade break coming up in the next video. One dice for both lists. It's gonna be six and a one, seven times. One, two, three, four, five, six, and a one. So that'll go to Detroit, that two player card, seven times for the hit parade spots. Top nine after seven, good luck. Fingers crossed, one, two, three, four, five, six, and a one, seventh and final time. Now from 10 on down, sorry, Jeremy. Very close, but no cigar. We'll get him next time. 10 through 32, we'll get him next time. Thanks for taking the risk though. Top nine, you're happy because you're in the hit parade break. Tanner is happy. So is Anthony, Jimmy, Michael, Jeremy. Oh, Jeremy, you got it. Oliver, Adam, Steve, and Michael. So happy times, top nine, right? Yeah, happy times for that group right there after seven. Thanks for watching. Thanks for breaking with us. I'll see you in the next video for the break. Jaspeyscasebreak.com.


Live from Orlando, Florida, it's theCUBE. Covering Accelerate 19, brought to you by Fortinet. Hey, welcome back to theCUBE. We are live at Fortinet Accelerate 2019. In noisy Orlando, Florida, I'm Lisa Martin, welcoming two guests to the program. One you know and love well, John Madison, the executive vice president of products and solutions at Fortinet. And John and I are pleased to also welcome Peter Doggart, the vice president of business development from Symantec. Thank you. Welcome back, welcome. Thank you, Lisa. To be here. So guys, partnerships, symbiotic partnerships. We've been talking about partnerships all day. Now we want to talk about what's new with Fortinet and Symantec. You guys just announced a couple months ago an expansive partnership. Peter, let's go ahead and start with you. You guys are saying we're going to partner to deliver the most robust and comprehensive cloud security service. Why did Symantec decide to partner and collaborate with Fortinet and why now? Absolutely. So when we think about what our customers are going through, they're going through a digital transformation typically to the cloud. And we wanted to make sure that we perform the best possible technology for our customers. We chose Fortinet. We were a great partners actually before this whole thing started. We looked at the technology that they had to offer. Repaired it with what we had in our web security service. It was a fantastic fit. And so far with the show today and Accelerate, we made the right choice. That's always good, right? To get some validation there. Talk to us about the, from maybe from a customer's perspective, what were some of the drivers saying, hey guys, this partnership can be really beneficial for your joint customers, partners, and each company. John, what's that with you? Yeah, well I think it's a very expansive relationship. Peter just talked about having our next-gen firewall inside their cloud, providing security there. There's also opportunity at the endpoint. For example, Symantec is the largest endpoint, 175 million or something, endpoints out there. We're the largest network security vendor in terms of implementation, some four million firewalls out there. And what customers are saying is they want their security solutions to work together. They want their endpoint to see the network. They want the network to see the endpoint to want to exchange information. So one of the other integration points is between the endpoint and our next-generation firewalls, providing policy exchange, providing the ability to exchange that information. So if I'm a large customer and I've got a very all-encompassing degree of implementation of Symantec endpoints, CEP I think it's called, and they've got 40NET, they can simply connect those two together and provide a very comprehensive solution. And so we're getting some great feedback from our customers around there. Talk to me a little bit more about that. Are you seeing this adoption? And I know both Symantec and 40NET have customers in every industry of many sizes, but in terms of some of the successes that you're seeing, I know this is still really early on, what are some of those that really excite you that like Peter, you said, we've made the right choice? Yeah, I'll just follow on from a comment you made, whether you're a medium-sized customer, the largest financial customer, security is a very tough thing to solve. And what you're going to do is add complexity to that problem. You also want to make sure you don't have cost as well. So the really cool thing we're doing here is through the collaboration, through the integrations that John spoke about between the endpoint, network and the secure SD-WAN and the fabric, we're actually solving those problems in very intuitive ways. It's seamless for the customer. It just plugs together. And that's what it should be like. We don't want to add any complexity here. And that's what we're doing, that's right. Yeah, and I think for customers, every time they need to add a security solution, it makes them more complex, it's more cost, it's more operational overhead. So if they've got existing vendors like Symantec at the endpoint or for cloud security and they've got 40 net in there for SD-WAN or next-gen firewall, if we can simply switch on the connectivity policy exchange, threat intelligence exchange between those two things, it's great for the customer because they instantly get a better solution. It's more secure, it's more cost-effective. Of course, customers, you mentioned, you guys both mentioned a couple of words that every customer wants. Seamless, we want it to click in, kind of plug and play. Obviously, it's a sensible undertaking to integrate your solutions. Talk to us since this was just announced a few months ago. Where are you in terms of integrating the technologies, I think, we saw the next-gen firewall integrated into Symantec's web security service and Symantec's endpoint solutions integrated into the security fabric. Where are you guys on the phases of those integrations? I'd like Peter to talk about the WSS service. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I think one big element of this, as I just mentioned, was web security service. We have data centers around the planet and what we're doing is we're taking the virtual 40 net solutions and we're installing them now in all of our data pods. And we're starting the rollout phase this summer and we'll be probably pretty much done with it as we get into the fall season around the planet. And we'll be switching that on and the really cool bit about this is it's going to be one single interface. The customer just simply switches on, firewalling, IPS, next-gen firewall. It's completely seamless. From a management perspective. Management policy. Yes, absolutely. I'm looking through one crystal ball. One cloud security SaaS service, done. Yes, and the endpoint's more on us to develop, so we have to develop this connector of our next-gen firewall into the endpoints and we're looking probably to the end of this quarter, early Q3 to do that. And we'll start rolling that out across our different operating systems. So talk to me about the channel. So I know 49 is very much dedicated to the channel we've had with a number of your partners on. I know we've got John Bove coming up next and we've spoken with him for several years. So a lot of statistics, a lot of revenue growth, a 49et driven by the channel. One of the main pillars that was discussed in the keynote this morning was education. Talked about technology, talked about ecosystem, collaboration, education. How are you guys working together to educate your joint partners to understand the impact potential that 49et and Symantec customers are about to have? Yeah, from a training perspective, obviously we have our own individual training programs. And as I was saying earlier, I think one thing that's very important to customers is more of an architectural approach. I want to look at an architecture over four or five years and I want to make sure all these pieces are integrated inside there. So one of the things we do initially for something like this for our partners is produce what's our fast track. A fast track is a small module of training that's focused on hands-on training of both components to make sure that all our partners understand how to integrate, how to make that work as soon as possible.  Excellent, and from a rollout perspective, is this something that's going to be going global by the end of this year? It's going to go fast, it's going to start next week. So, and the nice thing is when we map out our channel partners, because Symantec is a channel, very channel-friendly company as well. We've got some great overlap, but there's also a ton of white space there for our partners too. So I think it's going to really help both obviously our fields, but also our channel partners engage, grow broader and grow deeper into opportunities. And we know that security is a pan-industry challenge as every organization now lives in, that's successful, lives in this hybrid, multi-cloud world. Millions of connected devices. Every industry has to react otherwise, every business in every industry, otherwise they face going out of business. I noticed that though that there were a couple of tracks here, John, some sessions focused on a couple of verticals, healthcare, financial services, retail for example. Are you expecting to see any leading-edge industries, joint customers that really are ripe for this integrated solution? Maybe, but I also think that Symantec's got a huge footprint across all the verticals, across all the segments, the same as us. And so I think initially you'll see some of the larger companies who have these huge footprints of endpoints and network security, implement these connectors, implement the cloud security, and as you see that, they'll roll down into the segments as well. So at the event today in the last couple of days, what is some of the feedback been from partners, but from also end-user customers? Since there's about 4,000 people here today, John, what are some of the things that you're hearing? Well, we've been talking to some of our customers before here obviously, and overwhelmingly positive feedback from the large customers. I spoke to some partners to hear today as well. They really like the ability to bring together an leading-edge endpoint solution and network solution with cloud attached to it as well. So it's not often actually, I've done a partner announcement and I've seen so much excitement, not only with some of the customers, all the customers and all the partners, but also both organizations. We announced it to our sales organizations, doing that with Symantec, I think later on this week, and I see a lot of excitement. And so I think that bodes well going forward. And I imagine, Peter, you're hearing similar feedback from Symantec's install base.  This show for me has cemented the fact this is going to be a very special partnership. The feedback I've been hearing from potential customers, our own customers coming to us who say, hey, I've got these solutions. It's fantastic you're doing this now to our partners saying this is truly amazing what you're doing. And it is very rare you find these two companies that can come together in a meaningful way that can actually really impact what we're all trying to do here is fight the adversary.  I think Symantec's probably enterprise in the top two, top one, we're in the top five. These are huge companies and our footprints from a product perspective is a bit of overlap here and there, but not really. Which makes this exciting, I think, for our partners and for both companies. And I think, yes, I see these relationships where it's a logo exchange or we'll do a bit of this integration on this API here. This is a truly very integrated solution for both our channel partners and our customers. And let's talk about competition. That came up a lot during the general session this morning where just a few times a few people mentioned it, you know, in passing on giant slides with arrows pointing. No, I'm kidding. But really what was very clear, I think, from not only the general session this morning, but also Symantec that we've heard on theCUBE today is the industry leadership, the product leadership that Fortinet is demonstrating. But also, you know, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco, some of your other competitors where these are really proudly showing this is where we are in relation to them even so far as the number of Gartner insight, Gartner peer insight reviews that Fortinet has gotten versus your competitors. So let's start with you, Peter. Talk to us about the competitive advantage that Symantec sees this partnership being able to generate. So, you know, the way we look at it is we're going to come to market now. We're both, we both love technology. I think we can agree that. Very much technology forward, very research forward, we're bringing those pieces together. When you do that, you're going to win. And if you do that in a way that is highly integrated, you're going to beat the competition because you're going to have a clear advantage. We're going to do tech stuff faster. We're going to respond to stuff faster. It's just going to show very, very well. And I'm not going to point to a particular competitor. Don't mention the names. We're obviously a very large player in the industry, but we like this a lot. Again, we think this can make a very big impact. So let's see where it goes. And John, any predictions on what those graphs might look like at Accelerate 2020? 2020, that's a long time away from now. But I, you know, we continue to grow as a company. We take market share. We're aligning with some of the big players such as Symantec in the marketplace. So those graphs definitely up until the ride. Is that the right direction? That's the right direction. And last question is, we talked a lot about data sharing on a number of our segments today. Is Symantec and Fortinet sharing threat intelligence? And if so, why is that a good thing? Why is that important? Yeah, we're actually both founders of the Cyber Threat Alliance, the CTA. We already share. We did that, what, two years ago at least. And now we're expanding that, as John was saying, with real time on the ground threat intelligence sharing between our products, between our fabrics. That will happen just automatically. Yeah, it's important that you get the global sharing through the CTA. But also going forward because of targeted attacks, you have the local sharing. So we'll have global sharing with big amounts of threat intelligence and data. But at the local level between the endpoints and the network security, we'll have threat sharing there as well. And it's important you do that fast. Security change is by the second. If you don't react to something quickly, if you don't share that intelligence, that's actionable and relevant, you may as well just give up. You've got to be fast and responsive, yep. And last thing, last question is, you mentioned the word react. And we talked about that a lot today as well, is how, and I'll ask you both this, Peter, we'll start with you. How is this partnership going to enable your joint customers to eventually go from being reactive to proactive to predictive? Yeah, for sure. Well, I think some of these integrations we're working on, it's all about being proactive. So as an example, if we see something in our network that we've seen in a corner case, we can automatically give it over to Fortinet. They'll be inoculated everywhere around the planet in every single device. And vice versa. If Fortinet sees something in that network that we've never seen before, we can inoculate all of our endpoints, all of our customers. That's been truly proactive. That's how you get ahead. Yeah, the other screws. It's all about showing that threat intelligence as fast as possible, across as much of the attack surface as possible. And that's what the relationship is about. Well guys, thanks so much for stopping by theCUBE and sharing with us a little bit more about the partnership with Symantec and Fortinet. We look forward to hearing what comes in this year ahead and we'll talk to you next year. Thank you. Thank you, look forward to it. We want to thank you for watching theCUBE. I'm Lisa Martin, live from Fortinet Accelerate 2019. Thanks for watching.


Today, the Wheel of Decades is gonna build my team. Now, the rules here are simple. We've got the 2020s, the 2010s, the 2000s, the 1990s, the 1980s, and the 1940s to the 1970s. Whichever decade I land on, I must take a player that was drafted within that decade. For example, Joe Burrow was drafted in 2020, which means if I want Joe Burrow at quarterback, I would have had to have landed on 2020s. Patrick Mahomes was drafted in 2017, which means I would have had to have landed on 2010s. You guys get the idea, let's hop in. Now, starting with my offensive line, I'm gonna make my entire offensive line from whatever decade this is, and I'll do the same for each position group. All right, boys, the very first wheel spin, this is for my offensive line. The offensive line is going to be composed of 1990s players. So any player drafted in 1990, all the way through 1999. And this is so awesome, because we can kick it off with literally one of the greatest offensive line of all time, Larry Allen. Gold 99, he's the most expensive card actually in this entire game. Also, boys, I have insane news. So Raid Shadow Legends, the incredible game that I've worked with for years, has premiered an animated limited series called Raid Call of the Arbiter. And you can watch it for free in game. So episode one of Call of the Arbiter is out right now. And new episodes come out every single Thursday at 10 a.m. Eastern until July 20th. The animation is incredible. The show is so dope, and it just makes me love Raid more. This launch is going to add a ton of cool new stuff into Raid. So it's probably the most exciting time to jump into Raid Shadow Legends if you haven't started playing. So number one, everyone will get a chance to get our attack. One of the five new characters from the show as a playable legendary champion just by logging into Raid for seven days between now and July 24th. And if you watch my videos or streams, legendary champions are incredibly strong and very rare. So getting one like this is insane. And if you haven't started playing Raid yet, you can use my link in the top of the description or you can scan my QR code on screen. You'll get insane bonuses like an Epic Champion Night Errant and other useful items to kickstart your game. By the way, my in-game name is Papamig, so once you're in-game, come find me. Click that link in the top of the description and enjoy the rest of the video. I still need left tackle, left guard, center and right tackle. Unfortunately though, after the incredible Larry Allen, there's not a lot of depth from the 1990s, at least in the offensive line. Randall McDaniel was drafted in 1988, but he didn't first start for the Vikings until the 1990s. So I kinda gotta get creative here. Otherwise, we won't have any players up there. At center though, we do have an amazing option, Jeff Saturday. Jeff Saturday was drafted in 1999, which is perfect for us. Okay, this is awesome. There are no 1990s left tackles in the game, unfortunately. Now I was gonna go with Gary Zimmerman because he was in 1984 and he was pretty close, but I found a player even closer. For whatever reason, Madden put a Dwight Freeney left tackle What the hell? into the game. And yes, you're thinking of the same Dwight Freeney who's actually an edge rusher. I don't know when he played left tackle or why this guard exists, but drafted in 2002, that is pretty damn close. We do, however, get an amazing 97 overall right tackle, Willie Anderson. The right side of our line is insane. It's just the left side of our line where it gets weird. Here is the 1990s offensive line fully assembled with Jeff Saturday, Larry Allen, Willie Anderson, Randall McDaniel and Dwight Freeney. Honestly, that's an amazing offensive line. I'm really happy with that. Next up, let's assemble our backfield. This will be my quarterback, my halfback and my fullback. I really just don't want 40s to 70s. I would take any other decade for this. It's not 2020s, that's gonna be my homes. Oh, I gave this example in the intro, let's go. Patrick Mahomes, one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time already and he's still playing. I happen to have him on my squad already because he's that good, but Patrick Mahomes drafted in 2017. That's a no brainer for me. Now 2010s halfbacks, I'm gonna have so many good options too. Personally though, I think I'd like to take like a more OG, like closer to 2010, 2011 player because honestly, when I think of the 2010s, I think of Adrian Peterson, but Adrian Peterson was drafted in 2007, so he's not even in this game, so that analogy doesn't really matter, but I want like an OG 2010s halfback. Who's that gonna be? I tried to find the perfect guy, but it just didn't work out. Christian McCaffrey was drafted in 2017, same year as Mahomes and he's got a 98 overall team of the year. So we're gonna go with Christian McCaffrey. And you know what? I've done 2017 all the way up till now, so I'm gonna do one more 2017 player. This is also kind of a cheesy strategy, but the best tight end in this game is actually George Kittle. George Kittle was also drafted in 2017, so I'm putting George Kittle at my fullback. The backfield is complete, almost entirely gold 99, so that is amazing. Now we're gonna move into our receivers, so wide receivers and tight end, they will come from. I think 2020s would actually be the best decade for this. I get all the young guys, but we get 2000s, hmm, 2000s for wide receivers and tight ends. Well, there's one name that instantly comes to mind for 2000s wide receivers. He also happens to have a gold 99 wide receiver card, one of the best in the game right now, Larry Fitzgerald, six foot three 98 speed and 99 damn near everything else. Now I obviously wanna go with Megatron, but the dumb thing is the Megatron is only a season reward.  All right, this may not be the best wide receiver in the game, but I think we gotta go with Steve Smith. Steve Smith was amazing in the 2000s. He was drafted in 2001. He's only 94 overall, so he's not gonna play like Larry Fitz, but still he'll be good at the slot. We just gotta get another good wide receiver too. And our final wide receiver is gonna be DeSean Jackson. It's honestly crazy how long DeSean Jackson has played because he was drafted in 2008. 510 98 speed, not as big as Larry Fitz, but he should be awesome too. So our 2000s wide receiver is Larry Fitzgerald, DeSean Jackson and Steve Smith. It's honestly an interesting group, but I'm really glad we have Larry Fitzgerald. One of my favorite tight ends ever, Vernon Davis 98 overall was drafted in 2006. I gotta say though, I have a lot of San Francisco 49ers now, so I kind of feel bad. I'll try to keep them off my defense, but wow Vernon Davis at tight end, that's awesome. And to be totally honest, I do need two tight ends because I always use two tight ends. Antonio Gates was drafted in 2003, so I'm gonna grab him as well. There's no rule that says I can't, just grab two tight ends, you can't. What are you complaining about over there? Offense is complete, we're a 97 overall on offense, which is amazing. And we've got quite the grab bag here. Our 1990s offensive line, our 2000s receivers and our 2010s backfield. We did not hit the youngest players nor did we hit the oldest players. It's a pretty dope lineup. Of course, we still have a defense to build. Let's start with our linebackers. All right, our linebackers will come from, looks like we're gonna go 2010s again. Maybe, makes it all the way to 2000s. All right, well we get to start out with a gold 99 because Brian Erlacher was drafted on the dot in the year 2000, which is perfect for us. So we'll take Brian Erlacher. We get to pick up another gold 99 draft card because Chad Greenway was drafted in 2006. Look at that smile. He looks like that UFC guy. Chale Sonnen, does that say his name? That guy is a gigachat. Either way, Chad Greenway, let's get it. At left outside linebacker, we can take Terrell Suggs drafted in 2003. And for my second middle linebacker, Ray Lewis was drafted in 1996. His whole prime was in the 2000s. He's on the NFL's all decade 2000s team. I'm gonna cheat a little bit and take Ray Lewis. There's no other good options either. So you get what you get. Nobody's gonna be upset about Ray Lewis on the squad. Let's just put it that way. Linebackers are set with two gold 99s, Ray Lewis at a 97 and Terrell Suggs at a 96. Up next is gonna be my secondary. That's all three of my corners, strong safety and free safety. Arguably the most important. All right, boys. This spin is for the secondary right here. No 1940s or 2020s. Yeah, I'm gonna get one right here. Ooh, that's actually so good. Like, I know we're only a couple years into the 2020s but Madden and the NFL, honestly, are just a young man's game. So there's gonna be so many good players for this. We just gotta find them. At corner one, I'll actually start with Tyson Campbell who was drafted in the 2021 NFL Draft. Six foot one amazing stats as a great corner. I can also of course pick up the defensive rookie of the year, Saus Gardner, a six foot three insanely fast corner from the 2020s, baby. Younger than me.  And for our third and final corner, I'm actually gonna go with Tariq Wollin who is six foot four and has 98 speed. Such a good corner. And honestly, many Seahawks fans thought he should have won defensive rookie of the year.  Tariq Wollin, Tyson Campbell, Saus Gardner at corners. Honest to God, I wanna go in free safety Trey Lantz so bad. It would literally be my like fifth San Francisco 49er.  He's gonna get traded. I'm going Trey Lapdance at free safety. You can't stop me. You can't. There's nothing you can do.  I don't know why he has a free safety card. He might as well switch positions. He might get some reps. And at strong safety, I'm a hundred percent taking Kyle Hamilton. Kyle Hamilton is gigantic. I'm gonna, I have such a tall secondary. This is amazing. Trey Lantz is six foot four. Kyle Hamilton six foot four. Tariq Wollin six foot four. Saus is six foot three. And Campbell, Campbell is my shortest at six foot one. Still rocking a 97 overall. The 2020 squad is into my secondary. All that's left is the D-line. All right, boys, that just leaves our D-line. Our D-line will be composed. Oh, it's poetic justice. I got the last one. Yes. Yes, sort of. I have no idea how good or bad this is. I don't really know what man has for these years. This is basically anyone drafted in 1979 or before. These are the OG players. Me and Joe Green was drafted in 1969. But honestly, if their photo is black and white, you can pretty much assume they belong on my D-line. There's 97 overall Ed Tuttle-Jones drafted in 1974. Tuttle for a reason. This is a six foot nine left end. Yeah, exciting card to use. Honestly, he's so good. There's also 98 overall Jack Youngblood drafted in 1971. And our final D-tackle will be William Perry. He wasn't quite the 1970s, but we're running out of options here. So we took a week again. So our D-line 1940s to 1970s. Jack Youngblood, mean Joe Green, William Perry and Ed Tuttle-Jones. We're actually at 97 overall. Now listen, I would do special teams too, but they have so few kickers that it literally would be pointless. I'd pretty much have to get 2010s or 2020s or it won't be possible. So I kicker, I'm gonna throw in Justin Tucker and at punner, I'm gonna throw in the Scottish Hammer. Those are my two favorite special teamers. And you know, Dwight Freny can be our long snapper. Why not? Who says no? I'm gonna set this lineup, get some abilities on our players. I'll see you guys in a sec. All right boys, the abilities are set. Here's what we're doing. Larry Fitz has double me in deep out elite. Mahomes has run and gun, gun slinger, hot route master and fearless. And Vernon Davis has an X factor that starts the game on. I did not know that. It's yak him up, increased chance to break the first post catch tackle and it starts the game on. I don't even have to activate it, it's so cool. And I also gave him deep out elite. I think Vernon Davis is gonna be a menace out there. And defensively, I had a good time on defense. Chad Greenway with edge threat elite, crusher inside stuff and unstoppable force. Verlacker with lurker crusher, sauce with acrobat pick artist shutdown. Tray Lance with shutdown, acrobat mid zone KO. Ed Tutile Jones with no outsiders edge threat elite. And Durbin James has pick artist for free. I have him as a backup cause it's gonna force me to have a backup in there. So I just threw him back there. I know he's really young, but I don't think he was 2020s, I think he was 2018, but it's the best I could do.   All right boys, let's go hop into a game, see how we can do. The Holmes, Erlacker and Fitz.  Whatever, he's got, ooh, Eagles team team. Maybe an Eagles team team, whatever. You saw me without the lighting.     Jalen Hertz, Marshall Fulk, Jason Kelsey. I don't know, he's got a lot of Eagles though.  Second and three, let's send a blitz. I can't let him run all over me.   Damn, just trying to light him up. Let's just play coverage. Two tall Jones in coverage is always nice. Ooh, a little option, ooh, no way. Jalen is up, get that fraud. All right, I'm sending a blitz. Let's go get the QB, it's a pass play. Get there. Ooh, he almost got a thrown in interception right there. All right, we'll cover again, we'll play coverage again. Nothing aggressive here. Just looking for this post, I think, but it's just not there. He's got a lot of time in the pocket. Hey, no way, you got sacked. Bro, you had like infinite time. Third and 20, I'm sending the blitz now, go get him. Shit, yes, we got him. William Perry, and he spikes the ball at fourth and 28. Genius. In all my years of Madden, I have never seen a man spike the ball at fourth and 28. Let's start out with a jet sweep to Deshaun Jackson. Come here you old motherfucker, let's go. Shit, ooh. Definitely should have hard cut there, I don't know why I didn't. Let's go my homes to Vernon Davis. See how open that is. It's not, but I gotta go Larry Fitz here, his users there. We still pick up three. I'm going Vernon Davis over the top, right over the middle. Let's go Vernon.  Oh, etch, oh my God. I'm going right back to the jet sweep. I don't think I did Deshaun Jackson any justice. Let's give it to him again. Hold those blacks. Oh, what a great play by the user. Oh my God, any fumbles. He should have been given the opportunity to return that ball. First in 10, I don't wanna get hit with like a read option. Ooh, well RPO play, solid play. I have the momentum to see my home team's intended pass target. So I can see his primary wide receiver right as he throws it. Yeah, that's pretty dope, big hit. Trail lap dance, deliver that hit, okay. Just probably read option again. Blocked everybody, he's looking for the whip. Ooh, that would have been an interception to be through it. Three sacks so far, D-Line and Chad Greenway are moving right now. Second in 17, I'm going same thing here. He has a couple power, that would have been an INT. Oh, I was right there with her lacquer. Ooh, run play, trail lap dance is in there. He got five shamrocks ready to stop that one. Fourth in 16, he's gotta go yard. He's gotta go yard, get down there Tyson. Oh, he missed. All right, I'm going Vernon Davis on a corner route here. I'm gonna block McCaffrey. It may end up being the Vernon Davis show. Oh, we gotta step up with my homes. Oh, oh, I don't know how I threw that ball away. I honestly don't. Let's hand the ball up, bro. We got a solid offensive line. We got McCaffrey, who was just waiting for a handoff. Did not go anywhere, I'm sorry McCaffrey.  I'm gonna bring McCaffrey over the middle here and we're gonna give him, let's give him a rep. There you go, McCaffrey. Doesn't fight though, now it's fourth in two. A smarter man than I would take his points. Nobody said I was a smart man, I'm going Larry Fitz. You can't stop Larry Fitz. Look at that. Separation immaculate on fourth and one. On the one yard line, I'm going no huddle. I might hit Vernon here. Sorry, man. If you're gonna use the de-tackle and leave that open, I'm gonna run right at it. My home sponges that one in. We're gonna go stretch left. Oh, keep going, great blocks. I'm telling you, man, George Kittle is the best pullback in this game. He's got Antonio Brown as the kick returner. Wow, I can't believe they let him in this game. It's a joke, I know it's not Antonio Brown. Stop typing. Dude, he can't handle the heat. I'm gonna send the Blitz again. Oh, as I say that. No, cannot handle the heat. Second and 12. I'm Blitz and Trey Lapdance. I'm getting an INT with Lapdance. Sack Trey Lance, no, but INT Trey Lance? INT? Oh, fuck, I was so close. I did make the tackle with Trey Lance. Okay, let's play zone so I can actually use the rim. Okay, pass, he wants this. Oh, I wish. Bop, big hit from Kyle Hamilton. Nice work. I'm gonna switch to a formation where Trey Lance can actually be my user. He's gonna attack Trey Lance. Shit. Fuck, good move. We're just spearing for heads right now. I'm manned up on 87. I think he's blocking 87. So I'm gonna go for this. I might give up a touchdown, but I'm going for it. Yep, good defense. George Pickens, not today. What on the... All right, I'm gonna go into nickel three three because this actually has Trey Lance as my user. Yeah, it does. All right, I can still block Tootsol and just play coverage. Oh, good ball, Trey Lance. I know that was Kyle Hamilton broke it up, but we're gonna pretend it was Trey Lance. All right, big blitz. We're guessing pass, flying at the QB. Go, lap dance.  Play action. Oh no, that's open. Oh no, no way.  I'm fourth and 15, he converted that. I'm really scared of this being a run. It's not. Okay, that was in your midst. He's too sweaty. He's too oiled up from, from, you know what, hey.  Another pass, yes. Come on, I'm on everything.  I know it's a pass. Nothing, Tootsol Jones screams off the edge. It's fourth and goal. All right, I can guess pass again.  What a good play. I can't even be mad about that. Oh, with two seconds left on fourth and goal. Dude, this guy is clutch. We do start a ball though, so we can make this a two possession game pretty quickly. McCaffrey, I'm not giving up on you, bro. Don't worry, I'm not giving up on you. I'm gonna let you run. I feel like that could have been a better run play if I had played it better. Honestly, I trust that so much. I'm gonna do it again. Yeah, oh yeah. Good cut, McCaffrey. And McCaffrey, we trust. Oh my God, to back, to back. I believe in the boy. I'm going right at the gut here. Just gonna dive over this pile.  All right, 20 to seven though, I mean a quick, quick touchdown. See if we can blow this up. Oh, lap dance, lap dance, lap dance. Hey, I affected the throw. All right, we're gonna drop coverage here. I was so close. I just wanted an interception with him, man. He's so sick. All right, coverage again. The coverage is giving him more trouble than anything. Play action. That's gonna be open over the top. Nice ball, can't be mad about it, nice ball. All right, we're gonna guest pass now. We're gonna sack him. Oh, don't run the ball right now.  Dude, just a, oh wait, I can pitch it to Lappy Lappy Poo. Yes, good blocks, good blocks.   I don't know if you guys watched this video, but in whatever I hit, I buy, I threw this route, the corner post, to Larry Fitzgerald. And it was a touchdown, it was a nuke too. It is not there this time. I don't know why it worked when I did it in that video. Come on, go press Larry Fitz again. Yeah, press Larry Fitz, huge mistake. Not a huge mistake. Huge mistake! Larry Fitz, you're kidding. I'm gonna go a post on Vernon. Oh, I had him.  Ooh, and he got through the double team. I know what I have to do. I have to throw to McCaffrey. What a pass. Mahomes did his little shovel thing. What about Vernon Davis' corner route? Step up Mahomes, go, go, go. Mahomes, you're done, you're done. Oh, that's what's gonna do it for ya. Yo, that was honestly literally one of the best games I've ever played.  Bro, if every game went like that, I'd play man the rest of my life. Sheesh. All right, boys. Hey, I have to edit off on that other guy top that game. That was awesome. Hey, I love you boys. Thanks so much as always. I hope you enjoyed this video and I'll see you in the next banger. Peace.
