Hello friends in today's video, we're going to go over the best builds for soloing the brand new seven star turret event for Typhlosion, which will be kicking off later this week. So kicking off on the 14th of April, which is this Friday as of recording this video, the seven star Typhlosion turret event will be live in Pokemon Scarlet and Violet. As always, we'll kick off by taking a quick look at the overview of this Pokemon, the potential possibilities this thing will have when we go into this turret event. As you can see, Typhlosion, it will have the ability's blaze of flash flyer. It's likely going to have flash fire as its hidden ability. So it's going to have that immunity to all fire type attacks. It will be set to level 100 like all other seven star turret events and it will have the ghost terror typing tied to it. Big thing about Typhlosion is it is a little bit faster, a bit speedier than our previous turret event Pokemon with a base speed of 100. And if we do the 30 times multiplier to its HP, you're looking at a number around 8,910 hit point damage that we're going to have to do to Typhlosion to take it down in this raid.  The big attacks that we're going to have to watch out for in particular are going to be eruption. This is a move that is based off its HP. It is based 150 base power at its maximum damage boosted by the Sun as well. It's going to be hitting extremely hard. So something to watch out for over heat is another option as well. I've put lava plume on there as well because it does have that secondary effect of having a 30% chance to burn the target when it does hit. Solar Beam is a nice coverage move that we're going to see probably played off if sunny day is something that Typhlosion has. It will go from a two turn attack to a one turn attack and it gives it an option to hit things like water type Pokemon, rock type Pokemon, ground type Pokemon that may likely come to this raid. Now focus blast is something that has been talked about a lot with Typhlosion. It does get access to it and because of its high special attacking stat can do some significant damage with the focus blast. It also gives it an option to hit dark type Pokemon for super effective damage. So something I think a lot of us are probably quite wary of going into this raid and I honestly think it's probably a possibility that we will see focus blast on this Typhlosion. So it's something that we need to think about in our preparations going into this raid. Shadow Ball feels like the only real option that it's going to have if it's going down just a soul special route that it's going to have for a ghost type attack. It doesn't get access to Hex which I'm actually really surprised about because I thought initially the playoff with Willowisp or Lava Plume to burn the target and then use Hex with that ghost terra typing to double its damage with the status effect could be something that could be quite problematic for us. But Shadow Ball looks like the main attacking option that we'll see from a special attacking side of Typhlosion. Now a set of options Typhlosion doesn't really have too many for us to worry about sunny days. Definitely something I think we'll probably see it does boost the attacking part of things like eruption over heat Lava Plume all those fire type attacks does make something like Solar Beam a one turn attack as well. So that could be possible Willowisp is something I could definitely see it playing with as well because it is a nice support option where it can burn those physical threats. Now the other options I've starred here are something that a lot of people are kind of overlooking is that Typhlosion is primarily going to be a special attacker and I think the majority of its big powerful attacks are special attacks. But I don't think we should overlook the physical side of Typhlosion and gets a lot of physical type attacks and it does get some options here with setup options where it could kind of play off those. So it's just a possibility. I'm not saying it's going to happen but it's something that I think we should take into consideration going into this raid with preparing our Pokemon now it does get howl so it does have access to boosting its attack and special attack through that move. That's something that we may see on this Pokemon. Lear is another option where it would lower our defenses and then its physical type attacks that does get access to it does get low kick so again playing off the same sort of type weaknesses as that focus blast low kick could be on there. Flareblitz of course is going to be a big strong powerful fire type attack in the Sun while charge is an option as well for it as well as Shadowclaw which gives it an alternative ghost type attack and move that is on the physical side not the special side. The likelihood is though I think it will be more special that makes more sense. Typhlosion has got a much larger special attacking stat than it does a physical attacking stats I would say predominantly it is probably going to be a special attacking Typhlosion but these are primarily the things we're going to have to look out for. Eruption I would say is going to be a big one overheat I could see definitely a bit like the Charizard raid that turn one set up the sunny day and overheat or set up the Sun and eruption could be options there focus blast solar beam shadow ball and then sunny day willow isp as you supporting options on there. So these are the things that we're going to have to watch out for and primarily what I have been building towards when I've been putting Pokemon together. So these are a few of the builds that I've got put together now there are some caveats with these builds and you might be thinking why have you got a mouse garada coming into a Typhlosion raid it's part grass type it's going to be weak to those big fire type attacks well there is a caveat to this and I think it will work depending on when the shield goes up. Now if we see the shield go up very early on like the Pikachu raid this will not work at all but this could be a very good strategy going into this raid and I think something I'm looking to try out as soon as we go into this one but me as Garada has got that part dark typing so it will resist the ghost typing and it does get access to one key move that makes this set in my mind work perfectly so the move set is going to be skill swap fake tears nasty plug and dark pulse we've seen me as Garada performed very well in raids in the past the skill swap is there primarily to steal the flash fire on the Typhlosion now like I say there are some caveats with this the Typhlosion for one needs to have flash fire to we need to see no screens go up the first turn because of screens go up it means we can't skill swap the Typhlosion but if we are able to get the skill swap off turn one then we're going to be able to steal that Typhlosion flash fire we're then going to be immune to the big fire type attacks for the remainder of the raid which is pretty huge which allows us room to then go for the fake tears the nasty plot set up and then fire off dark pulses to Typhlosion so this is the premise with the me as Garada like I say there are some caveats to this working but if everything lines up I can't see the shield going up too early I can't see Typhlosion haven't anywhere to stop us getting the skill swap off it should in theory work pretty well me as Garada obviously will hold on the shell bell item so we've got a line of recovery there we've got the dark terror typing on it as well with an EV spread of 252 HP 252 attack ability of his overgrowth don't really need to worry about the ability here because you're passing it over to the Typhlosion anyway you are going to have to worry about the focus blast if it is there because of your dog typing that you've got but if focus blast isn't there then me as Garada is going to be in a really good position to take on this Typhlosion now the fake tears is going to be there to law the special defense on the Typhlosion that's the plus boost your special attack in the dark pulse is your main attacking move we've got a modest nature 252 HP 252 special attack on the me as Garada so this is something that I think could work although I do say there are some caveats to this one working the next one up is spirit to my do like spirit to my lot into this raid I think because of its ghost and it's dark typing it can do a good job we've got the shell bell item again on this spirit to man it plays a lot like the me as Garada where we are going to utilize that skill swap if it is something that we can use going into this raid we've got an EV spread again of 252 HP 252 special attack with the modest nature and spirit to has the natural bulk as well to be able to take some big damage in attacks from the Typhlosion skill swap is going to be the move that we use initially to get rid of the flash fire on the Typhlosion put it onto our side of the field then we've got a combination of combine to boost our attack special defense snarl to law the special attack on the Typhlosion and shadow ball is going to be our main attacking option on there and the nice thing about spirit to him is it doesn't have a weakness to fight in type attacks like the me as Garada so that focus blast really isn't going to be an issue at all so you're only going to have to worry about things like solar beam if you can steal that flash fire from this Typhlosion which you're really not going to worry about at all and with the shell bell recovery there after a couple of calm mines you're going to be doing enough damage to kind of recover your health each and every turn next up we have flutter man and Flutter Man was a very good Pokemon to bring against that Charizard seven star raid event which was the dragon terror typing for good reason it had the fairy typing that he could do good damage to it but with Flutter Man sky high special defensive stat it might be able to stand up to Typhlosion pretty well in this raid we have got the shell bell item on there because just in this raid you're going to need lines of recovery it does make sense for it and I feel like this item choice is probably the most optimal going into this raid especially for the Flutter Man we've got the ghost terror typing on their modest nature 252 HP 252 special attack just to optimize our special attacking damage we've got that proto synthesis ability as well which is another added bonus of bringing Flutter Man if Typhlosion does set up the sunny day then you'll get that proto synthesis boost meaning you're going to be able to do a lot more damage with that active now the move set for Flutter Man is calm mine to turn one we're probably going to need to go for the calm mine to get our special defensive boost and even further so we can take those ghost type attacks that are going to be threatening us from the Typhlosion as well as the fire type attacks that come out from it as well fake tears is to law the special defensive stat on the Typhlosion draining case gives us a way to get some health back as well if we want and then shut a ball is I mean attacking move on the Flutter Man modest nature of course and that is the eevee spread but that is the Flutter Man and I do have my reservations about it but I do feel like it could be a decent option going into this raid nonetheless on the next Pokemon we are going to talk about is Houndoom it's going to be another Pokemon that will have issues with any fighting type attacks the Typhlosion will carry again because of its dark typing but it does have access to flash fire which gives it instant immunity to any fire type attacks coming out of the Typhlosion really cutting down its ability to do damage to us and having to rely on things that maybe aren't as effective especially those ghost type attacks that are going to be resisted because of its dark typing I really like Houndoom here but as I say there is the caveat to having a focus blast on the Typhlosion that could make things a bit tricky to remember as well even if focus blast is there it is a lot accuracy move so it's not going to be hitting every single time so you may be able to get around it that way anyway just because it's not going to be hitting so much Shellbell is the item on the Houndoom if you have a move set of taunt that could be a filler though you could replace that with anything that you wanted but a way to stop things like Sunny Day getting set up again and it can support partner Pokemon as well it can shut down things like Hal that could be a possibility as well as that Willowisp that could be problematic to a partner in Pokemon Nasty Plot is going to be a main thing to boost ourselves up Snarl there to reduce the special attack and damage on the Typhlosion of course and then Dark Pulse is going to be a main attacking move Ability has to be flash fire into this one with an EV spread of 252 HP 252 special attack with a modest nature now I do like Toundoom and I think it will be a really good one into this but if we do see focus blast it could make it quite difficult for bringing Houndoom into this match and it hasn't got the best defensive stats overall anywhere but I do think it can do a job just depends on what we see the Typhlosion coming into this event with next up is another dark and fire type Pokemon which is Chiyu and it is one of the new Ruin Legendary Pokemon it does have better stats spread overall than the Houndoom doesn't have flash fire unfortunately but it does have some good options probably to optimize this you want to change its Terra type to Dark and it is going to resist those ghost type attacks of course from the Typhlosion Shell Bell the item of choice because it just gives us that line of recovery like we keep saying Bizarun is the ability now the thing is with Bizarun is it will lower the special defensive stat of the Typhlosion but it will do the same with everything on your side of the field as well so it is going to weaken Partnering Pokemon good Pokemon to go on with to solo but probably not one to take online and it could do a job I do think again it's going to fall into the category of being a bit problematic if we see something like focus blast because it is going to be weak to that attack now the move set is nasty plot gives us a way to boost our special attacking stat and light screen gives us a bit of defensive stability against a special attacking stats from the Typhlosion Snarl going to increase the special defensive stats of our side of the field and then Dark Pulse going to be our main attacking move on this Pokemon Modest nature and I would say that you probably want to just go 252 HP 252 special attack for EV spread on this one for the Chiyu but that is Chiyu I do think a good option obviously a legendary Pokemon as well so its stats are going to be good but again it's going to have to be a bit wary about the focus blast if that is an option on the Typhlosion and next up we've got the Hydragen again going to fall into the category of focus blast being an issue if it is there or low kick Shellbell is the option that we've got on the Hydragen though I still think it can do a decent job dark terror typing on it of course we've got focus energy which increases the critical hit chances after you've used it we've got nasty plot to boost our special attacking stats snarl to reduce Typhlosion's special attacking stat and then dark pulse is our main attacking option there EV spread is going to be 252 HP 252 a special attack with a modest nature and I think the Hydragen is probably quite a solid Pokemon as well with that dragon typing going to resist the fire type attack dark typing going to resist the ghost typing attacks it's just whether or not we see something like focus blasts on there that could make this a little bit tricky and some other options that we've got going into this raid that I think might be quite useful or something like Arcanine I do like Arcanine a lot because it does get access to that flashfire ability giving that instant immunity to those fire type attacks that we could see turn one I can really see something like Typhlosion ghost sunny day eruption turn one here and something like a flashfire Pokemon like Arcanine like the Houndoom could be quite useful in those scenarios where it's able just to take no damage from that first turn at all unless we see the abilities nullified and then we see something like eruption fired off that could be a little bit problematic but otherwise I think the flashfire users will be quite useful in this raid now Arcanine is not a bad Pokemon at all a good stat spread we've got the dark pterotyping on this to play off the move set a little bit here Shell Belt is the item we've got a move set of Morning Sun now that is going to play off sunny day if that is a factor with this Typhlosion raid it will recover all of your health when you use it as long as the sun is in effect Howl is an option that we can use to boost our attack and special attack we've got Lear here combine that up to lure the defense on the Typhlosion and then crunch is a main damaging attack move on the Arcanine here we've got an EV spread of 252 HP 252 attack just to maximize attack and stats flashfire is the ability of course and an adamant nature on the Arcanine moving on the next Pokemon is a Pokemon we've probably all got built in our games already if you don't it's probably worth building one because it is just generally so good against even six star terror raids that you're going to be taking on in your game anyway although this is a seven star terror raid and it is annihilate the fighting and ghost type attack in Pokemon now it has got good bulk to this Pokemon so it's going to be able to take a combination of attacks from the Typhlosion you're still going to have to worry about the Shadow Ball I think more than anything because you have got that ghost typing can go for that generic set we've got the Shellbell item on there and annihilate might be a Pokemon that can come into this raid and solo it but we will have to wait and see I'm putting this in here because it is an option that does keep surprising me every time we go into the seven star raids I don't include it and then it turns out it does the work once again so we're putting it in here today just as an option that you can try the start of the raids and obviously when the event goes live we will be able to clarify if this does well or not but the set normally is just bulk up screech drain punch and rage fist rage fist going to be your main attacking option on there Eevee spread of 252 HP 252 attack with an Adam and nature defying ability on there as well now the one thing I would say about these physical attackers aren't a fire type is that I would worry about the willow isp I worry about getting burned because if you get burned then you're going to be a way worse position be able to do the damage to the typhlosion and willow isp is something that could cause annihilate a lot of issues going into this raid and why I wouldn't put it in the top tier of Pokemon to choose from going into this event but that is the annihilate build and definitely something to consider especially if you've already got a build in your games next up I think Umbrian is a nice option as well it does have the ability to skill swap as well you get the leftovers item because it does have a good way to recover dark terra typing on there as well moonlight that is going to be the move that you're going to play off to get recovery also benefits from the sun being up on the field recovering full health when it is active skill swap is there because it is a nice disruptive move you're going to be able to take that flash fire and just have that immunity from those fire type attacks and Umbrian bulky anyway it's going to have the resistance to those ghost type attacks it does have the same issue of being weak to that focused blast or any fighting type attacks that we do see come out and this option there's a bunch of options that you can play on Umbrian it gets fake tears and things like that but the options here we're playing the screech and file play set just to be able to lower the defensive stat on the Diplosion and then take advantage of the file playing especially if we see something like howl this might be quite a good option to bring and a good supporting option as well it does get a lot of supporting moves that you can take online support partnering Pokemon helping hand things like that are going to be really useful but Umbrian generally going to be quite a good option to bring into this raid especially if you're going to go in with friends especially online and the last two Pokemon that we're going to mention today and one of them is going to be Pyro it is going to be a little bit susceptible to those focus blast low kick options that the Diplosion does get but I do think a really nice option nonetheless does have that fire and normal typing so it does mean that it will be immune to all those ghost type attacks the fire type attacks it's going to resist anyway it's not going to worry about things like solar beam that we could see on it so generally going to be quite a good Pokemon we have given the dog terror typing shell belt is the item for a line of recovery and we've got a move set of work up snarl entrainment and dog pulse now the beauty about this is it works a little bit like the skill swap you don't need to necessarily go down this route but the entrainment turn one because you are going to be naturally faster than the Typhlosion you're going to be able to get this attack off first turn or something like that into even though it's resisted it's still will be doing a lot of damage in the sun the entrainment will copy the flash fire which is really nice because then you're able to just have that resistance for the rest of the raid and then you can concentrate on going for those workups boosting your special attack and stat reducing the special attack and stat with snarl on the Typhlosion and then dog pulse is going to be your main attacking move EV spread on here we have 252 HP 252 special attack and it will be in modest nature on this pyro and I do like this option because if we don't see something like focus blast on the Typhlosion with that entrainment turn one you're going to have complete immunity to all of those ghost type attacks and complete immunity to all those big powerful fire type attacks the pyro could actually be a really good Pokemon going into this raid event but we'll have to wait and see like I say I do suspect something like the focus blast on there from the Typhlosion and finally to wrap up today is just another Pokemon that I would like to bring into this raid it is Phyregoraph and the reason why I'm bringing Phyregoraph is it's got good stats it's got good general bulk it is normal and psychic typing it is going to be immune to those ghost type attacks though because of its normal typing which is a big plus for Phyregoraph it does get Shellbell and it does get access to Skill Swap as well so a little bit like the pyro plays a little bit differently because of its psychic typing with that normal typing it's going to take neutral damage from those big fighting type attacks so it's not going to be as threatened by them but if you can get the Skill Swap off onto the Typhlosion early on and then steal that Flash Fire you're going to have the immunity to the fire type attacks and you're going to have that immunity to the ghost type attacks while you set up with something like Nasty Plot Amnesia and then when you do decide to terastalize you're going to be set up to a point with all your stats where you're going to have like plus six special defense so you're not even going to worry about the ghost type attacks coming out from the Typhlosion and then you can play off the boosted stored power from your terastalization and do some big damage after all those boosts up with the Nasty Plot and Amnesia it works a little bit like the Slowbrow strategy except you can Skill Swap over the Flash Fire you've got the immunity to the Ghost type attack and Furgaraff might actually be quite a good option going into this raid so we'll see I think my top picks for this one would be the Furgaraff I'm quite interested to see how this works and then obviously the Meow's Garada as well is the other one that I do like going into this one with that fast Skill Swap that you can do turn one and then you can just set up and do a lot of damage to the Typhlosion potentially if we don't see the Shields going up turn one now there's some other options that I did look at down here Flareon it just doesn't get the attacking options that you need it does get Flash Fire I think it could be quite a good support of Pokémon in general Greninja I do think is a good option you could go with some tonight roleplay if you want to get round the big Fire type in attacking moves even though it will resist it with it's part water type in but it is going to be weak on the defensive side but roleplay a nice option to steal that Flash Fire and then you've got Rain Dancers another option Swords Dance and then something like Night Slash that you can play on as well there Roaring Moon was an option I did look at but I really do fear the Willowest Pier from the Typhlosion and the fact that it's not got many set up options I feel like those burns are going to be something that we're going to have to watch out for and it will really cut down the ability of Roaring Moon to do the damage that you need if it is burned throughout the whole terror raid and that goes for the same as Terranitar as well I love Terranitar it's typing is perfect for this the rock resists the fire the dark resists the ghost but I do worry about Focus Blast for one because it's four times weak to it and also if it's not there then you're going to have the the worry about Lava Plume Burn so that's a possibility or just Willowest if it is a supporting option on the Typhlosion but all in all we've covered a bunch of Pokémon in today's guide so they'll all be linked down in the description as well if you want to take a closer look at each in every one of the build and I hope you found today's video useful let me know what your thoughts are and what your best picks are from everything that we've covered in today's video let me know as well what you think about Focus Blast is it going to be there or not I really think it probably will be there so we're looking at things like for a graph Spirit Tume more optimal choices going into this raid but of course as soon as the raid goes live we will go live covering it all and then we'll do a bunch of testing as we normally do and then throw up the best Pokemon to solo this within your game so you have an easy time going up against this Typhlosion but let me know what you think of everything in today's video thank you so much for taking the time to tune in do drop a like it massively helps out the channel and subscribe so you stay up to date with all of our Pokemon scholar and Violet content that we've got here on the channel thank you so much for tuning in friends have a great rest of your day and I will see you all in another video very soon so until then take care of yourselves and bye bye


One, bingo! One o'clock rock! Research in Manoa, we explore everything about research in Manoa, and Margo Edwards, PhD, is our special person who we communicate with and see and enjoy all the time. She represents, she's iconic. She represents, at least in large part, research in Manoa. Welcome to the show, Margo. Thanks, Jay. Good to be back. Thanks for coming down. And we have two students. We have Jay Chittness and Nalo Eamon, and they are students at SOEST, and they are involved in an interesting project offshore, and I'd like Margo to introduce them. So Jay and Nalo and I met about a year ago, a little over a year ago, we had received some funding from an organization in Houston, Texas that was working with the space station, and they were going to be receiving what are called automatic identification signals, or AIS, from an antenna that's on the space station, and they were wondering if there was something that they could do with Hawaii. So they're businessmen, they're very interested in shipping through the Gulf of Mexico. Interesting. Obviously, they're in Houston, but this is not pure academic now. It's not. It's applied science, right? But they came to us and they said, do you have an idea of something that we could do for the larger ocean? And I was involved with the illegal fishing project, and I said, oh, you've been involved in lots of ocean things you have. So I said, you know, I think that we could do this, and so they gave me some funding so that I could I could get some students involved in this project, and I sent out this announcement to students in our global environmental science program, and three or four brave young people came by and said I'd like to be involved. That's great. That's great. It was because Margo was involved, right? Yeah, exactly. The only reason. Well, so now, what's happened since then? Let me ask them. What's happened since then? So you signed up for this really interesting and offshore project about illegal fishing.  Well, I think everybody really should care about illegal fishing because every resource that we have on Earth is so limited. And obviously, fish are limited too. So that's the whole illegal and unreported fishing is just it just an insult to the environment to an environment and it it can spiral and get out of control and just deplete all all those sources. And that's one of the other reasons why you wanted to get involved in this project. Okay, how about you, Nala? I was really interested in the programming side to learn how to program and we've Margo taught us a few things or her style was to kind of throw us in there and let us drown a bit on her own. I figured it out. I think she said. And then I'm also interested in fish because I really enjoy eating fish and I've lived in Hawaii my whole life. So I'd really like to see it here like being sustained. I'm glad you said that because I went to Portugal a couple of weeks ago and I had I actually had a relationship with a fish. It was kind of one particular sea bass fish. It made me happier than ever before. It was kind of a an affair. You know, and I think the fish was just as happy as I was. We had an experience together, which I will never forget, but I won't dwell on it. Anyway, okay, so what is this project about? You want to spot illegal fishing where? Everywhere? No, just off the coast of Mexico. Well, these guys have been concentrating on the Gulf of Mexico. The other young woman that we're working with who she couldn't be here today, Tatiana Oje, she's been looking at what's called the tuna belt in the Pacific. So basically from 10 north to 10 south in the Pacific, sort of around all of those islands, Micronesia where we get. Oh, the western Pacific. Where we get lots of illegal fishing going on. So we could be doing it anywhere. But right now, because of the fact that we had about a year and an incredible amount of data, we've been concentrating on these areas. Okay, data. How do you get data on illegal fishing?  Fine. So I'm only kidding. So basically we get what's called AIS data. It stands for automatic identification system. And I think the easiest way to describe what AIS is is that it's the air traffic control of the ocean. So pretty much all commercial ships that are cruising around the world are equipped with these AIS transceivers. And they're identified. They're identifying. They're constantly sending out this this signal. So based on that, it's we all our data is in just illegal fishing. It's all ships. So we have to parse through the data. That's interesting that we have the technology to do that. So if it's not on a legal list, if what is reported back to you from the AIS system is not on the legal list, then what you make some conclusions about it, you write that down. And you keep data on that. You know who is legit and who is not. Sort of. So there are a lot of there are a lot of grays, shades of gray in this kind of stuff. There are people who are legit, who do illegitimate things. There are people who claim to do one thing who do something completely different. There are people who go in areas where they're not supposed to go. Who done it here. Right. Is like CIS.  We saw these things. We ended up calling them crop circles. And we we ended up going to the Coast Guard to see what the crop circles are. Do you want to talk about what's a crop circle? Yeah, so it just appeared that there were four tracks of ships going in a perfect circle in the southern part of the Gulf of Mexico. And we didn't really know why they were doing that because it was only recorded a few times in our data. I'm sitting here trying to think of why they might do such a thing. And I'm not getting anything. Yeah, why? That's a good question. There must be a reason. Well, there's possibilities. I mean, there could be errors in the data. And that was what was really cool, I think was Nalu went to the Coast Guard, and he got to show them in Houston, the Coast Guard show them these crop circles and say, What are these? And they scratched their heads. And they've been getting these data too, you know, but it took sort of people who just were looking for different kinds of things to be able to see this aberration. Yeah. And so what does it mean? So it's been a really neat trade off between these guys learning a lot from the Coast Guard, learning a lot from fishermen, and then being able to take unbiased data analysis back to the Coast Guard and say, What's going on here? And we also kind of collectively scratch our heads. It's great. It's great. Because the Coast Guard doesn't have this. I was in the Coast Guard, you know, I spent six years in the Coast Guard. And they must love to have the feedback from you, because it gives them all kinds of new thought process and possibilities. And they're interested in more enforcement agencies. So if they can, if you can help them establish that there's a violation of law, they're sure they really appreciate that. So what are your theories? Do you have theories about the Crop Circle? I don't really know. Yeah. So how does programming get involved? You like computer programming in this, in this context? What do you do on what platform, what language, what result? It's called bash. And it's just kind of strings of code that tells the program what to plot, what colors, what kind of shapes. And it was the first time I ever really got introduced to programming. We use another program MATLAB in school, and that's more mathematical based. So it was nice to also learn how to use programming for mapping. Welcome to the world of science.  Now it goes everywhere. Everybody does programming. And you must. And it's different, isn't it, than Microsoft. It's really different than consumer kind of programming, like me. Okay, so what have we learned so far? What conclusions have you drawn? What data has come back? And how do you feel about it? What is it showing you? Well, there are definitely areas that show a high population of fishing vessels. And what I want to look at specifically is if we can see fishing or fish movement, as sea temperature rises, so if they're going to go to cooler waters northward. This is just the illegal fishing market. This is all kinds of other stuff to climate change. The interactions between like the economic zones between two countries, so Mexico and the US. And I'm mainly focusing on the southern portion of the Gulf right now. But I might want to look at other areas just to get a better picture. You don't have to go down there. You just get satellite data. You can be in your jammies at home and do this work. It's typically what I do, actually. Well, how does what Eamonn does, or rather, Nalu does, compare and contrast with what you do, Jay? You're working together as a team or are you just doing different things? We're a team looking at separate aspects of the Gulf of Mexico. So he's looking at the southern portion of the Gulf of Mexico, and I'm looking at the northern portion along the coast of Texas, Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida. And I'm trying to look at the effects of the BP oil spill on fishing in that area. Yeah, so look for geographical patterns. Yeah, look for basically fishing vessel locations from before the spill compared to where they are now after the spill. So this is all about getting the data, which I guess it's easy to get the data. It's free. It's not free. It's not free. Oh my God. Is it expensive? It is. For about three months of data for these guys, we ended up paying almost $5,000. But that was, we had to go to a commercial vendor. Now the company that we're working with is providing us with data for free. So that was a big part of getting involved with the folks in Houston, which they're giving us. And it's really interesting and clean data. Yeah.  So you have it, I mean, you have access to it. And I don't even know how it comes down to you. How does it come down? It's on a website somewhere. And you can download it as a spreadsheet form, or it is just a regular spreadsheet, but a big spreadsheet, really, really big spreadsheet. Now you have it, I'm thinking of it as an Excel spreadsheet or you know, that's exactly right spreadsheet. Yeah. And so lots of fields, lots of columns, lots of rows, all that stuff. And you have to know what the columns and rows mean. And then you have to be able to interpret that probably geographically, right, onto what amounts to a map. And the map moves changes. Well, how do you do it? So the files, luckily, they the columns are labeled. So we know exactly what each column represents with the numbers of the labels and all of that, what they mean. And to map it, we're using what's called generic mapping tool, which was developed at the University of Hawaii, generic mapping tool, GMT, we call it GMT. I thought that was a time zone. It is a time zone. So we're using that to map everything. And it's it's a good software, it maps it clean and makes it very, very visually pleasing to look at. The software looks at the spreadsheet, directly at the spreadsheet. And that's where a lot of the programming comes in. We have to tell it what to do, where we want it to plot, which, which aspects of the the file, which column we want it to look at in order to plot and all of that. You make formulae. Tatiana is making formulae. I think that these guys are more sort of looking at geographic location and time, right. But so it's dynamic, right. But but Tati's actually she's looking for a certain pattern. So long line fishing tends to create a loop and a line and a loop and a line and a loop and a line. And so she's developed automatic detection software spot loops and lines. Yes. Whoa, that's very interesting. Very cool. And she goes into the same spreadsheet. And the spreadsheet this is spreadsheet have the AIS information from all the boats ships. Yes.  And so you can get a map from today against the map from tomorrow and so forth. Right. So the complication comes in. If you think about the International Space Station, it makes an orbit every 90 minutes, right. So it passes over a ship, but then it moves just slightly or more importantly, the Earth moves underneath it, right. Yeah. And so you're never sure if you're going to be able to get that same ship for that loop and the line. So the complication for what Tatiana is doing is she's trying to to fill in that loop and line with just a few sets of points for this, this pass and then a few sets of points for this next pass. And probably by the third or fourth pass, we're away far enough away from that vessel that we can't see it anymore. So it's a really complicated. Compensate for that. You have to have a form, a formula that will compensate for the movement of the space of the satellite. You can, you can. You have to do some sort of interpolation. Yeah, that's pretty sexy. Yeah. Actually, I mean, why do I, well, we'll get to this later, but why do I feel that this opens doors to all kinds of other possibilities for tracking things in the ocean than anywhere else? It does. And you know, the other thing that I think that these guys are looking at in particular that's really exciting is this idea of can fish be a proxy, schools of fish, a proxy for what's happening on the planet. An environmental disaster moves the fish one way, climate change moves the fish another way and the fishermen follow the fish. So you don't look at the fish. You look at the fishermen looking at the fish. Because they're making choices and decisions and they're spotting the fish. So you rely on their judgment that it's commercially motivated. So you can rely on it. They're basically the experts and we're merely the messengers. Oh, on that note, we're going to have to take a break. Aloha, everybody. My name is Mark Shklav. I'd like you to join me for my program, Law Across the Sea on ThinkTechHawaii.com. Aloha. Hi, I'm Stacy Hayashi with the ThinkTechHawaii show, Stacey to the Rescue, highlighting some of Hawaii's issues. You can catch it at ThinkTechHawaii on Mondays at 11 a.m. Aloha. See you then. Aloha, how you doing? Welcome to Apache Talk. I'm here at Gardo the Tech Star on ThinkTechHawaii. I'm here with my good old buddy, Andrew, the security guy. Hey, everybody, how you doing? Aloha. Good to have Andrew here in the house. Please join us every Friday from 1 to 130 and follow us up on YouTube. And remember, as we say at the end of every show, how are you doing? Great experience. I want to go to school again. And I don't want to study law. I want to study science. It's not too late. Tell me it's not too late. It's not too late. Late-flowing learner. Oh, we're back. We're back. We had a wonderful break. It was a great discussion. We found that it wasn't too late to study science, even for people who haven't thought about it a long time. So you guys went to Texas, yeah? And what happened? So many things. I think we had a bit too much fun while we were there. Fun in a scientific way, of course. Yes, of course. PG-13. Okay. So we'll begin at the beginning. What did you do? So we, primary reason we were there was to sort of give our preliminary results of the research to Jams America, who is funding us through in partnership with NASA. What is Jams America? Jams? So we're actually talking about this. It stands for Japanese America, something space support. It was a joint effort between Japan and America to support Japanese astronauts going on to the ISS or the space shuttle. Okay, great. I love those collaborations. And huge. Okay, so you went and you talked to them. We talked to them. You made presentations to them. Yes. You told them what you were doing and what you were learning and they were interested, right? They were pretty excited about everything that was going on and showed them what we were doing, what we had so far, that exact Earth-AS data that we had. We had made nice maps for them and everything and just told them, gave them our thoughts of what was going on and then they gave us theirs and it was a really nice conversation that we had with them. The most fun thing about science is talking to other scientists. Am I right? It is. You share your high levels. Even the arguments are fun. So were you there in the same thing? Did you make a presentation also? Yeah, all three of us did about a 15-minute presentation and then we also got feedback from them to see what else they'd like to see or any questions they had or wanted to answer. Yeah, when was this helped? How recently was this trip? May. But then they rolled out the red carpet because a lot of these folks had been involved with the space program for a long time. So the very next day they took us to the neutral buoyancy lab. What is a neutral buoyancy lab? So neutral buoyancy is when you're in the water, you're just completely suspended in the water. No, not going, floating up, not sinking down. Sounds like the red sea. And that's the Dead Sea. Yeah, the Dead Sea. And that's up, really it's, well on earth, it's the best way to mimic the effects of zero gravity while they're up at the, on the International Space Station. So in this massive pool, which is about 40 feet deep and I don't know 100, 100 feet long. This is about a million miles away from your monitoring the fishing boats. No, but it's still, it's still really cool. It's still really cool. Well, because it's the space station and the antenna that they're using to get their data is on the space station. Okay, got it, got it. And they have, they have full-sized model of the space station in this pool where astronauts train because they, when they go out, they basically rehearse what they're, what they're gonna do while they're up on the space station in this pool. So this must be a big pool, if it has a full size. It's a big pool. Yeah. Did you go down in the pool? I wish. I cannot. I cannot. But. But, okay, now this is your turn. Who came out of the pool? Oh, her name is Megan MacArthur and she was actually born here, I believe. Born in Honolulu. She's an astronaut and she was training and it just so happened that she came out of the pool right at the end of our tour and so we got to meet her and talk to her about her projects and that was really cool. Yeah. These guys of course, you know, as soon as they see her coming out of the pool they go, oh Megan MacArthur, write Google on the phone, right? Oh, she's born in Honolulu so they start telling everybody in the place, we're from Honolulu and the next thing we know, she comes over and spent like 15 or 20 minutes, right? She's talking and hanging and it was really. That is the greatest. It was surprising, you know? She's always a connection with Hawaii. I know. And she's actually, she's an oceanographer by trade, I guess you could say. Yeah. She has a PhD in oceanography, so it was pretty cool. Get her to come out here. Okay. Recruiting. Okay. So, okay, so what else then in Mexico, anything else? We visited the. This is Texas. Texas. Yeah. We visited the Coast Guard to talk about our data sets and ask them about certain ship tracks that we saw that were unusual to get their input. And they took us to their command center, which that was really interesting. They, it's really top secret they didn't let us take our phones or cameras or anything in there. Well, not really top secret. And, but they were showing us their monitoring, what they were monitoring of the Houston, the like Texas Coast and the Houston Pacific Coast. They don't want the bad guys to know how they monitor them. Yeah. Is it a combat information center kind of thing or rescue coordination center? I don't know what they call it these days. They just call it their command center. Yeah. Okay. But they look at things like this. You know, you're really kissing cousins that you get the data, they need the data. It's really a good connection. But you know what, what strikes me is that these guys are going through the kind of the keyhole here. They're going into science. This is the first time you've done anything like this, this project. And so here you, you get data down from satellites. You interpret the data. You make conclusions about the data. You talk to the government about the data. You talk to industry about the data. You know, you are cooking. You are going through the keyhole and Margo was helping you do that. That's what she does. She does that with so many students in so many ways. And so how does this change your view of science? Has it changed your view of computer programming? Has it changed your view of, of dealing with the environment and the whole world? All oceans, how does it change your view? What was, what kind of experience do you have? I think it kind of pointed me more in the direction where I want to go after I graduate because I am graduating in the spring. I have developed an interest for more planning or conservation and this kind of, these kind of tools that I've learned really shows me the path, I guess. When you, when you say that, I guess you're going to do graduate school because you need to in that area. But are you going to be, you know, an academician, a scientist, a research person? Or are you going to go and try to deal with the government or industry? Any thoughts? I was thinking more towards government jobs, actually, but I wouldn't mind going to grad school, but once I graduate, I first want to try to find a job and get more experience. Yeah, okay. How about you, Jay? So yeah, right now it's looking at the military and that this whole interacting with the Coast Guard and my, both my parents are military employees, so because of that it's been, I've kind of been involved with this kind of military, army, navy atmosphere. So it's, it's been a huge part of my life, so I feel like with my degree it's just really, I think, obvious next step is to look into the military. And what about, you know, your view of illegal fishing? What about your view of climate change? Has this experience given you, you know, further thoughts about that? How sensitive are you to those issues now? So I think it's definitely open my eyes more to illegal fishing than they, I wasn't really super aware of, obviously I was aware of that illegal fishing was going on, but I wasn't really too concerned about it, I guess, but now with this project it has really, it's a big issue and also climate change, our program is global environmental science, so climate change is a big huge factor of what we're learning about and learning that it is real, it is, it is happening and that's something that we need to really try to figure out how to stop or slow down or what happens. There's a whole, there's a whole sort of sidebar on this thing in terms of what the Chinese are doing in the South China Sea and how they're, you know, pushing people around in the Philippines over it and how the oceans become smaller, the oceans, you know, since you started science, Marco, you must have seen, you know, the oceans now are, they're all right there, you can reach out and touch the world now, it's different and science in the oceans is different. It is, it does feel like everything's sort of shrinking and that includes the population of, you know, flying fish that used to bump into me when I was out at sea in the 1980s versus, you know, what I see now. I mean, it scares me that the impacts, I have seen the impacts to the ocean in my lifetime, that just astonishes me and, you know, one of the things that, to Echo's Jay's point, you know, when you start going and talking to the Coast Garden to NOAA and you hear the numbers that something like 30 percent of the fish that end up on our plate were caught illegally in this country, even though we don't try and, you know, do that, we try and play by the rules, but, you know, the system, the system has problems and there are people that are taking advantage of the problems and it's folks like these that give me hope, right, that, you know, when I retire and you retire and we just go read cool books and learn interesting stuff, that these guys are going to pick up these important questions and do something about it, you know. It's not only science, though, it just connects with international law and the law of the sea and diplomacy for that matter. We have to be sensitive there as a country and as a new president, by the way. And, you know, because the oceans are smaller, it is more, it is of greater interest to all of humanity that they be properly governed and so you're really getting into an area that is more than science. It's the way humankind deals with this enormous resource, which is not so enormous anymore.


Hey guys, Realistic Gaming here. Today we're gonna be playing the skip-dial-you-wokey Because they have updated which is now update 1.4 I believe Before we start this video, I want to give a birthday shout out to Egg Golden's boss so shout out to my boy and wish you a best of wishes on your birthday man And I hope you have a good one. Okay, so let's go check out the change lock So here we are at the change lock it says uh add a new zones in the map the basement Golden's door room. Okay, so there's a basement and a golden door room. That sounds pretty interesting Okay, add a new items golden key red key clock hands and crowbar. Okay, so that's like Three new items because we already had a gold key in before so it's a red key the clock hands and crowbar So I wonder what like if they're going to be scattered randomly throughout the map like each time you respond Glove items have been removed and now it's harder to spot them. Well, isn't that great? Like the game isn't dark enough already and you can't even see a okay new voice acting recordings Okay, now if you die more than three times interest scene is skipped add a new smoothness to the mouse look Level changes some objects have been removed and others have been added. Okay, so they move some stuff around seems like Okay, um added scatter recording tapes with the game law with game lore in this version You will be able to find eight out of ten the two tapes will be oh in the next update So that's pretty clever man But we'll be able to find eight tapes and then we'll find the next one the next update That's pretty cool Okay, are you walking monsters now 40% larger? What why would they even do that? Like come on Okay, are you walking monsters animation now runs faster? what Okay, are you walking speed has been changed from 6.25 ms to 4.0. Okay, so it seems like he got slower But it's 40 faster when it's crawling Wow, okay, they just had to do that to us man. Okay added easter egg pictures Okay, we'll have well. Well, we'll try to keep a lookout for those. Okay remove real-time hour mechanic with special stones Or okay, so we don't have to play it after midnight anymore seems like they worked around it Okay, added new mechanic whether are you walking monsters able to hear you through the computer's microphone above negative 30 decibels if you are a constant creator this really bother you hold f12 And then press f10 to disable it to the opposite enable it. Oh my god Okay, so I don't know if I might have to disable it because where I am it's pretty noisy But we'll just play the game and see how it goes. I won't disable it right away We'll just see how it goes throughout the game and game radio music have been changed Okay instructions change case so it seems like they added like new items that you have to find throughout the map And you two new locations And they just moved some stuff around So this should be awesome So let's begin Yeah, and they added music to the loading screen because there wasn't any music before Which it would like it made the menu screen pretty dry Now I have some music in the background, which is pretty cool. Let's click play loading. Oh god Okay, yeah, we need to get out of here definitely man Oh, yeah, so I forgot can you hear me michael? It's any supposed to hear you I think it's guy anymore Okay, so we can't be as loud as before because as you guys read in the change log You can hear you like you'll hear your voice throughout through the microphone Which was a horrible mistake. I was toying around with them to see if it worked And it works. Okay. We've just seen that You see we have to be very quiet What is this place? I need to find a way out of here We just have to whisper Trying to be as quiet as I can I do not want to be loud because then Michael's gonna find us My god, they made it so much darker But before you could see like down the hall now it's just pitch black. Oh my god Okay, I think you left My god, they just had to make this more harder, huh? It's like there's no ending. What is this? That's weird. It looks like this goes in the clock He said it goes on the clock Oh my god I really should have turned that flashlight off, right? My god, that was something else man. I thought I was safe there But apparently I wasn't Okay, so I think we might have missed We might have missed the clock hand Okay, so we got one clock part He forgot about our old hiding spot, huh? Doesn't remember we can hide in here without him touching us. Okay. So how did that door manage to get up there? Wait, that's the red door. Isn't that the door in the puzzle area? Can you leave me alone? Oh, like I was trying to get that open fork Okay, so I believe since we got that down and since it was connected to like the time mechanicism We shouldn't We should be able to go to the door all the way back where the puzzle was and run straight through it Let's go We even closed the door, man Okay, so the code was three two four one five now. I have to remember the door numbers one two Okay, so it's three two four one five That's gone. I still got it man Can he come over here now bro? I'm scared to go out. What if he comes in here? He's so oh, so we use this key on the golden door.  The heck was that? He's already be quiet Bro, I don't beat it and not leave you here. So I believe We should be able to open that Where do we hide?  I know exactly what to do with this Ape All right I have to give you a lot of thinking I decided to step out of the cold I'm gonna hide back here and while that plays They want to feed the entities with children's fears And even the very children I can't stand up for this. They are everything I have only with them I feel as unequal as a brother not like in the college where I feel used They are just telling me Nope He's coming this ain't gonna work out chief We're stuck in here. So one way One way in one way out type of situation So we got the crowbar side of us. How did that even work out? He was like right inside of our body and we need them to come on this side so we can get out to the other side Oh, look, there's a door right there with boards Maybe we have to open that door We do have a crowbar crowbar Michael Michael Michael Michael can you hear me? We finally made it to the door Oh my god, please don't come this way. Okay, so he can come down here Okay, so now I think we need to find the red key and that red key takes us out of here once and for all so We have to be very cautious When Michael comes down here because we only have one way in Okay, so there was definitely Okay, so this seems to be a lot of like crazy stuff going on in this place, man man I can care less. I just want to get out of here No, I guess all we have to do Is look for the key. Are you sure he can't see us here game? All right, there you go Let me in this thing is like a glitch doesn't let you in Okay, so this time that tablet has to do something with all this crazy stuff going on here Okay, so now we have to do Look for the key if I was a key I see it. I just heard Michael. He he Think you heard that Dude, we're gonna have to make a run right towards the door All right, so apparently you can take cover in the locker Which is pretty disappointing because in the other ones you were able to but not in the other one which makes no sense Right, man. What would I run over this game? All right, you guys. Well, thank you guys for watching Thank you guys for the amazing support If you guys enjoyed the video make sure to slap the like button if you need a channel Make sure to subscribe and turn that notification bell on and now we'll see you guys in the next one. Bye


Presenting Edward G. Robinson and George Calouris in The Voice on the Stairs on the Cavalcade of America sponsored by E.I. DuPont Dinamoys and Company of Wilmington, Delaware. Maker of better things for better living through chemistry. Before we begin our play, here's a timely hint for those who plan to redecorate a room in their home this fall. Speedyzy wall finish. One of DuPont's Better Things for Better Living will help you do it the most economical way. Most rooms can be redecorated for less than $3 because they muster in one quick coat. It thins with water and dries in an hour. Save with Speedyzy. It's Speedy. It's easy to apply. Speedyzy wall paint made by DuPont. Tonight is the third in Cavalcade's New Falls series of great radio plays. Tonight our play is called The Voice on the Stairs and stars Edward G. Robinson as Thomas Payne with George Calouris as the stranger. In later weeks Cavalcade will bring you Bob Hope, Jerry Colonna, Francis Langford, Clark Gable, and many others. Maxwell Anderson's great play, Valley Forge and Norman Corwin's The Girl Lincoln Loved. Now for tonight's Cavalcade play and your commentator, Walter Houston, who once again welcomes you to Cavalcade. And welcome indeed to Cavalcade. I want to talk tonight about a man who spoke to men and women from the depths of his heart.  He had a real name that we know, but man didn't call him by his real name. They called him by another nickname, common sense. He was a jack of all trades, corset maker, weaver, cobbler, and yet before he died, he was the hope and heart and the mind of a hungry tatadami that had very little except hope to fight with. And when even hope failed, he made a weapon for them out of their despair. Speaking of that future, men loved beyond themselves saying, if there be trouble, let it be in my day so that my child may have peace. That speaks the thoughts of many of us even today, in the year of 1944. And because of many other thoughts that this man put into words, we in these troubled times reach across the years to shake hands with him, to shake hands with Thomas Payne. Our cavalcade story this evening, the voice on the stairs was written by Robert L. Richards and stars Edward G. Robinson as Thomas Payne and George Caloris as the stranger. We go tonight to meet Tom Payne in New York in the year 1809 in an upstairs room in Little House on Broad Street. He lies sick and bedridden waiting for the darkness to come. His housekeeper, Madame Bonneville, speaks to him. Are you quite comfortable, Mr. Payne? Yes, yes quite, Madame Bonneville, quite, thank you. Is the, uh, front door locked? Yes, Mr. Payne. Good. I don't want to be annoyed by a lot of lunatics bursting in here as I was yesterday. Now go along. Yes, Mr. Payne. Good evening. May I come in? What? Oh, oh, good evening. Yes, yes, come in. It's been a long time, hasn't it, Mr. Payne? Let me see. Well, you came to see me last, that, uh, winter, 1776. Yes, yes, that was the last time, wasn't it? Now you come back again. Yes, to chat for an hour or two with an old friend and watch the sun go down. Watch the sun go down. You know, uh, I think I'm dying. Yes, you are, Mr. Payne. I find it hard to accept you at all sometimes. I don't believe in miracles, you know. Oh, come now, Mr. Payne, you are something of a miracle yourself. I am? Yes, you. From an impoverished tax collector to a leader of one of the great social and political movements of all the ages. Oh, enough, Mr. Payne. That's a miracle you believe in, isn't it? Well, I believe in myself, yes, but I don't believe in things I can't see. You see me sitting here, don't you? Well, come to think of it, I have never seen you distinct. Do you remember the first time? I was appearing in Parliament representing the King's excise men. Poor devils. Trying to get them better pay. It was your first real fight and you were a little frightened Parliament, the King's ministers. You were waiting to be summoned and everyone was giving you advice. Now, now, Tom, don't forget when they take you before they launch you. Yes, I know, I know, bow and scrape. Well, Tom, that's how it is. That's how it's always been. Well, you do want me to mention, I suppose, that if you don't get better wages, we shall starve. To be sure, Tom, to be sure, but delicately, delicately. Mr. Thomas Payne. I am, Mr. Thomas Payne. Their lordships will see you now, Mr. Payne. Thank you. Remember how, Tom, delicately, delicately. This way, please. We move your hat, please, Mr. Payne. Oh. My lords and ministers, the petitioner, Thomas Payne. And step up, Mr. Payne, step up. As brief as possible. I shall be brief, my lords. In all loyalty and in all humility, as Majesty's officers of excise wish to call to your lordship's attention, the fact that their wages set by law nearly 100 years ago have never once in all that time been readjusted. It is no longer possible for these officers to live modestly as honorable, self-respecting men on what they now receive. Well, for myself, I'm disinclined to hear more. If the salaries of these officers have been adequate for nearly 100 years, it's the most powerful of arguments that they are still adequate today. Am I right, my lord? Quite right. Very definitely. Yes, yes, yes. I think that will be all, Mr. Payne. Oh. Am I to understand, my lord, that this is all you have to say? Do you question our verdict, Mr. Payne? Question it. I not only question it, I question your right to render it. And before God, I shall find out one day how it is that some men are born with the right to enslave others who may not even question their enslavement. Mr. Payne, you may consider your service to the crown at an end of this day. I had already so considered it. How was it? Will the old boys give us another quitter, too? We'll give you nothing. But what did they say? They said that what was good enough for your great-grandfather was good enough for you. I'm sure they said no. Hmm. Well, come along, lads. We best be getting on. I'm sorry that I failed you. You did the best you could, Tom. We'll see you back at Lewiston. Yes. I suppose I shall be back. Good evening, Mr. Payne. Good evening. Good evening. May I speak with you? It's so dark. I'm afraid I don't recognize you. No matter. I'm sent by a countryman of yours. A countryman of mine? Yes. An American. Dr. Benjamin Franklin. Oh, well, then you mistake me, sir. I know Dr. Franklin, but it'd never been an American in my life. But you have been thinking about going to America, haven't you? Oh, yes. I know a good deal about that country, Mr. Payne. Well, Dr. Franklin has spoken to me somewhat about America. Yes, but I flatter myself that I know even more. Oh, don't misunderstand me, but you see, I have a curious knack of knowing what men will feel tomorrow. You're something of a profit, then. Well, in a small way, yes. Who are you? Time enough for that. The point is that you have been wishing that there were others who believe as you do, and that you might find them. Yes, I have wished that with all my heart. Suppose I were to tell you that there are such men in America. Who are you? You come to me speaking in riddles. How might I believe it? Because, Tom Payne, you are a man who knows the sound of truth. Listen, in their hearts, the men of America are saying this to each other, that all men are created equal, endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Do you believe that, Mr. Payne? Well, it is enough to be a battle cry for a whole new race of men. Someday it will be. If I only were sure that this is not a dream. Oh, it is a dream, Mr. Payne. But every forward step that men have ever taken since they lived in caves has started as a dream. Would I meet you again in America? Oh, often I think. Remember, Mr. Payne, I promise nothing. But this can be a beginning if you wish it. I do wish it. And, Mr. Payne, there is a ship called the London Packet leaving Monday week for Philadelphia. Come in. Come in. Oh, Mr. Payne, I was just thinking of you. You are certainly to be congratulated, sir. Oh, am I, Mr. Rayken? Do you realize, sir, that in the three months that you've been editing the Pennsylvania Magazine, its circulation has nearly trebled? And I think perhaps congratulations for that are due more to you as owner than to me as editor. Oh, come, come now, Payne. The credit is yours. Well, I meant, sir, that it's the business of an owner to be concerned about the profits of his publication. It's the business of an editor to be concerned about the content. Oh, why, yes, sir. So it is, I suppose, in a way. Well, our contents have been most unprofitable lately, Mr. Rayken. What? Well, not in my mind. Well, Mr. Rayken, there's a smell of powder in the air. There's smoldering anger on every April breeze. And we give space to men who still believe the world is flat. I will not tolerate these rumors of rebellion. I am in business. Well, I'm not. Mr. Payne, what's that? Sounds like every bell in Philadelphia. Bells? And someone be dead? No, they sound too full of joy for that. Mr. Payne, Mr. Rayken, there's been a battle. A rider has just come. The Redcoats fired on the Minutemen at Lexington. Oh, good heavens. But who won? Our men drove them back, sir. The people are talking about raising the militia. I'm going out. Maybe a few courageous men can stop it. I'm going to. Here, wait. Stop it. What do you think of that, Mr. Payne? Where did you come from? Lexington, Concord. It's all true, you know. Yes, but what's to be done about it? I thought you knew. Thirteen colonies spread along 3,000 miles of sea coast, all wanting something different. But there's one thing they have in common. Yes, if they have the sense to see it. What do you think they were? Independence. Doubtless. But how many men now in April 1775 believe as you do? Well, there are some. Some's not enough. Well, then there must be more. Someone must tell them. Someone must burn that word independence on their hearts as though it were written with a point of steel. And who's to do that? Why, I will, if no one else. Oh, so you'll become a revolutionary pamphleteer. Now become whatever I must become for the cause of freedom. Then you should know this. You'll be swept into the very vortex of it. You'll make converts, yes, but you'll make enemies as well. Men of your own time and of generations yet to come. There'll be no peace for you, Tom Payne, now or hereafter. How do you know this? Who are you? You've asked me that before. Well, is it strange that I should wish to know? Not strange, if you doubt me. Well, I didn't say that. I wonder, Mr. Payne, we've talked before and in most matters we've been congenial. And when I spoke in prophecy of those things you most desire, you accepted me. But now, when I warn you that you may fail. No, no, you're right. It's a small matter and I mean my choice. So you have. Listen. What is it? That, Mr. Payne, will someday be known as the spirit of 1776. 1776? But that's still a full eight months away. Yes. But if men will believe what you and I believe, there'll be that sort of spirit in 1776, won't by that's only common sense, isn't it, Mr. Payne? Yes. That's only common sense. You are listening to Edwin G. Robinson and George Caloris in the Voice on the Stairs on the Cavalcade of America sponsored by E.I. DuPont Dinamoor's and company of Wilmington Delaware, maker of better things for better living through chemistry. Once again, here is Cavalcade's narrator, Walter Houston.  He's been spending his last hours with a strange, yet dear and familiar friend, recalling with him, his journey from England to America in search of liberty, and recalling to the days when rebellion flared at Lexington and Concord, and he, an unknown writer, fanned the flame with his first great revolutionary pamphlet, common sense. As our play continues, the stranger speaks to Payne. Common sense. They never thought at first that the obscure editor Tom Payne wrote that pamphlet, common sense, but the words went ringing through the countryside like an alarm. Do you remember those days, Tom Payne? No more metaphysics now? Bring the doctrine of reconciliation to the touchstone of nature, and then tell me whether you can, hereafter, love, honor and faithfully serve the power that have carried fire and sword into your land. But if you say you can still pass the violations over, then I ask that your house been burned, your property destroyed, your wife and children destitute. Have you lost a parent or a child? If you have not, then you're not a judge of those who have. But if you have and can still shake hands with the murderers, then you're not worthy of the name of husband, father, friend or lover. You have the heart of a coward in the spirit of a sycophant. They listened. Yes. They listened. And they believed you, Tom Payne, and they fought for independence. But even that wasn't enough. 1776, the fall of 1776. Do you remember that? You were with the Army of General Washington. What was left of it? Poor wretches driven through the mud and sleet of northern Jersey, hungry, freezing and disheartened. And one night, the blackest night of all, you were sat with General Washington. Well, Tom Payne, we'll profit none by blinking at the facts. We're out of ammunition, out of food, and they've got us on the run. Yes, I suppose there's nothing worse in store for us, General Washington. And most of this I blame on you. On me, sir? Yes. It was your common sense that first persuaded me to independence. And I tell you that not for 20,000 pounds a year would I endure what all of us have endured for faith alone. Well, the worst of it is it's so many desertions. It's a whole company today. Where did they go? Home, I suppose, if they've still got homes to go to. Well, it's hard to blame them, sir. No, I don't blame them. I can't. Well, I'll leave you now, Mr. Payne. Maybe tomorrow. Yes, sir. We'll talk tomorrow. You staying up a while? Yes, I am, sir. I, I want to think. Well, good night, then. Good night, General. Payne, sir. Is there anything else you want? What? Oh, no, Sergeant. Thank you. And I'll go along, sir. Yes, we can go. Oh, Sergeant. Yes, sir. Didn't you tell me once that you were a farmer? Well, the way I was back in West Pennsylvania. And you left it for this? What else could a man do, Mr. Payne? I had my farm to fight for. Yes, I suppose you're right. Tell me, what do you think of things now, Sergeant? Well, the way I look at it, Mr. Payne, the leaders would tell us where we stand. Tell us the worst of us. Then tell us what to do. We'd follow you. You think it's as simple as that? You've done it before, sir. We've never stopped believing what we're fighting for. If you'll just show us how we can win, then we will. Tell them how they can win. Is there anything I can bring you, sir? Yeah, no, no, no. Thank you. And good night, sir. Good night. He's right, you know, Tom Payne. He's right. Why are you here? To tell me that I failed? No, no. Perhaps to tell you what will happen if you fail. You must write, Tom Payne. You must tell them how they can win. Yes, that's what the sergeant said. But I try. The words won't come. This is crisis, Tom Payne. The last crisis, I'm afraid. No, not the last. There'll be others. But each time hereafter that this great nation we fight for is in crisis, your words again will guide it. Nearly two centuries from now, in such a crisis as you cannot now imagine, a president of those United States will carry these words of yours into every home throughout the land to give his nation hope. All this shall happen if you triumph now. Well, why must you place this terrible responsibility upon me? I have not. The times have. Times to try men's souls. Yes, yes. Now we'll write that. Your pen, Tom Payne. Yes. These are the times that try men's souls. Good night, Mr. Payne. Good night. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will in this crisis shrink from the service of their country. But he that stands it now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered. Yet we have this consolation with us that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. I call not upon a few, but upon all, up and help us lay your shoulders to the wheel. Let it be told to the future world that the city and the country alarm that one common danger came forth to meet it in to repulse it. Throw not the burden of the day upon Providence, but show your faith by your works that God may bless you. They listened. And now, Mr. Payne, after so many years, I find you here, bedridden and of a certain age. Yes, and I'm dying. Yes. But you have no regrets. No, none. And you're satisfied with all that's passed between us? Yes.  Oh, I think you know something. I think I could guess. I think you are what I have aspired. I think you're all I was, could be, and am, and will be. Now the day is over. The sun's gone down. Yes, at last the darkness comes. Are you ready? Yes. Give me your hand. Where are we going? Into another time. Another time? I'm old and spent. Will there be a place for me? A place for you? Always, Tom Payne, as long as men love freedom as you have. So long as they're, I'm most grateful to you. Thank you, Edward G. Robinson and George Calouris. In a moment, I want to come back and tell you about next week's cavalcade play. But right now, here's Gain Whitman speaking for the DuPont Company. There's some timely advice for you. It's about how to take care of your car this winter. Car pooling has become a vital necessity. Our government has requested that each of us using automobiles going to and from work devise the best methods for pooling the resources of the cars available to conserve gas and rubber. This is the only way that these essential war materials will last longer and go further. The number of cars on the road has declined to a low of 24 million. Our stockpile of new vehicles has been reduced to less than 30,000, a pre-war three-day supply. The transportation experts estimate that if the total number of cars on the road drops to 20 million, a breakdown in essential transportation can be expected. How much older is your car than it was a year ago? One year older? No, a lot older than that, because it's wearing out faster now. You can be proud of your car, proud of the American know-how that made it so well, and proud of yourself for keeping it in good shape. That old car of yours will just have to keep on going till the war is over. Just the same, your old car is wearing out fast. There were nearly 30 million automobiles in the United States in 1941. There are fewer than 24 million today. And the very people who use the greatest number of automobiles, farmers and industrial workers, have the oldest cars, somewhere around eight years old on the average. So be careful, freezing weather is on the way in many parts of the United States. To keep your car from being damaged, you must protect the cooling system against freezing. Ask your local dealer or serviceman to install a good antifreeze now. And before he puts it in, have him do these six things. First, clean the radiator of plugging rust, scale and dirt. DuPont cooling system cleanser is especially designed to do a good job of this. Two, check the hose connections for leaks. Three, check the water pump to prevent leakage and air suction. Four, make sure the cylinder bolts are tight. Five, make sure there are no air traps in the heater lines. Six, check the fan belt for slippage. If you drop us a postcard, we'll send you free of charge, a booklet entitled Take Care, covering all of these points and others. Take care tells you why water in some parts of the country causes more rust and scale. How you can get the most heat from your car heater and what kind of antifreeze you should use. Right to the radio section DuPont Company Wilmington 98 Delaware. The war production board realizing that America can't afford to have cars damaged by freeze ups this winter has made certain there'll be enough antifreeze to meet the real needs of every car, truck and bus owner. DuPont manufactures four antifreeze solutions. Choose the one best for your needs. Zero, war emergency zero zero X or five star. Each DuPont antifreeze will give you double protection against freezing and against rust and corrosion and zero X is not evaporating. One shot lasts all winter. All four of these good antifreeze solutions are DuPont better things for better living through chemistry. And now here is water Houston with the news about next week's cavalcade. That winter on the frozen roads, the sound of horses hooves was like gunfire. The sky was steel above the bare hills across the school till river near Philadelphia. Men lived in dugouts, huddled over fires, cursed, prayed and died. And their breeding feet stained the snow. In a fieldstone house beyond the dugouts, a tall reticent Virginian suffered as did that despairing army and for all of us Americans who have come along since then. The place was Valley Forge, the name that is synonymous with hard-bought freedom. It was the winter of 1778. The man was George Washington. Next week cavalcade brings you this immortal story in Maxwell Anderson's magnificent play Valley Forge. And I have the honor portraying General Washington. I hope you'll be with us. Thank you. May I repeat Walter Houston's invitation to join us next Monday when he will add a new portrait to his long gallery of stage and screen characters by playing the role of General Washington in Maxwell Anderson's famous play Valley Forge. In weeks to follow, you will hear other fine plays with other notable stars. Bob Hope, Jerry Cologne, and Francis Lankford were with us to reenact their recent trip to the Pacific Front. Joan Fontaine will be heard in Norman Corwin's The Girl Lincoln Loved. And Clark Gable will make his first radio appearance since his return to civilian life. The musical score on tonight's cavalcade was composed and conducted by Robert Ombrester. The cavalcade of America sponsored by E.I. DuPont Dinemours and Company of Wilmington, Delaware invites you to be with us again next week.


As the ADA might, we drive pretty much anything from LHSs, MAPVs, Humvees, anything we wills on it, we can drive. On a day-to-day basis, we do PNCSs, with preventive maintenance checks and services. All that doing is making sure we're up on our maintenance from tires to the motor to get on top of the vehicles. And the biggest thing I learned was safety. So most of these trucks that we're driving in, you can't see out the mirrors. Everything is just tight space, and you really have to pay attention to detail. I chose ADA White as my job, because it's very family-oriented, because my family owns a trucking business, so it was second nature to me. The favorite part about the job, I say, we get to drive the big things. Anything like MAPVs, anything big, we get to drive. Nobody else really gets to drive them. So yeah, that's my favorite part, get look cool.


Hi there and welcome back to another example of proof with mathematical induction and this time we're going to dip back into calculus Now you've all had calculus so you may not have remembered seeing mathematical induction much in calculus But actually you can use mathematical induction and calculus to do some pretty interesting things for example Actually prove the the good old-fashioned power rule for positive integer exponents. This is your favorite Calculus derivative rule of all time, of course, and we can actually prove this for positive integer exponents of x Using mathematical induction. This seems so this is going to be a little bit of a strange approach to the proof That's kind of cool, too to get this proof going I'm going to let us assume a couple of items of calculus knowledge First of all, we're actually going to assume the product rule works. Remember the product rule is a rule for differentiating products of functions. It says that the derivative of Two functions multiplied together say f and g would be the derivative of f times g Plus f times the derivative of g now You might be thinking it's kind of weird to assume the product rule works if we're going to prove the power rule Right this doesn't isn't the true that the power rule comes first in the calculus book That's true But if you think about it and back to when you learn the product rule You didn't really need the power rule to prove the product rule So in fact you could cover the product rule first if you wanted to so we're going to assume that the product rule works In this proof and we're also going to assume that the derivative of x just by itself the derivative of x is 1 and That's safe to assume as well for a couple of reasons for one thing We could always go back to our limits for example and just prove that the limit as h goes to 0 of x plus h minus x over h is 1 and that's one way we could do it or we could think of this graphically The the function y equals x is just the Straight line that has slope one that goes to the origin and so the derivative tells us the slope But so the slope is one either way that assumption is safe to make here at the beginning And it's also actually safe to assume the product rule So let's assume both of those things are true and if you wanted to prove those then we could go back and do a Little more work now. Let's move on to the actual proof of the power. Okay, so in the base case here We want to show that our predicate Which just to remind ourselves the predicate we're working with here the P of n is that the derivative of x to the nth power is Equal to n times x to the n minus 1 that is going to be our quote-unquote P of n in this proof So what we're going to do is show that in the base case here is we're going to show that P of 1 is true We want to show that the derivative of x to the first is 1 times x to the 1 minus 1 Well, let's just deal with each side individually here on the on the Left-hand side we know based on what we're allowed to assume that this derivative is equal to 1 on the right-hand side What we have here is 1 times x to the 0 and that is also equal to 1 So those two guys are equal to each other and so the base case is established again We had to make an additional assumption in this problem right here using some basic calculus knowledge But I think that's a safe assumption to make here So the base case is established So let's move on to the inductive high in the inductive step now the inductive hypothesis The thing that we're going to assume is that for some positive integer k the power will hold so the derivative of x to the k sorry x let me erase that the derivative of x to the k power is K times x to the k minus 1 this is over what we're assuming as we move forward in the proof that I've made it up to the K-th step and now I've got to pay off the gnomes again to let me up to the next step So what are we going to try to prove here? We're going to take the proposition the predicate I should say and replace the k with a k plus 1 so we need to prove that the derivative of x to the k plus 1 is Now wherever I see a k here or here or here I'm replacing this with a k plus 1 So let me do this in a different color that would be k plus 1 parenthesis times x to the That used to be a k right here, but I'm going to replace it with a k plus 1 and There was already another minus 1 there to begin with so I have to subtract off the 1 so to simplify that expression I'm going to prove that the derivative of x to the k plus 1 is k plus 1 times x to the k so Again, you got to be very careful about what you want to assume This is our assumption and this is what we're trying to show and these two things do not mix together never keep them separate So let's move on to another slide and prove what we need to prove and again We actually have three assumptions in the game at this point. We're assuming the inductive hypothesis this Stuff in here and also the two facts about the product rule Which we haven't seen that show up yet and also the rule about the derivative of x itself so let's start and we'll begin so we're trying to prove an equation we're trying to prove the the the power rule for x to the k plus 1 so let's start with just the left-hand side of that Expression eventually I know what I need to get on the right-hand side, but I don't know that I'm there yet So what I'm going to do here is pull in some things that I know I'm going to first of all work inside the square brackets. Okay inside the square brackets. I can replace x to the k plus 1 with x to the k times x Okay, just to split off one factor of x there using my exponent rules If it helps it's just to go one exponent on there and now you know what I've got here is a product of two things So let me use the product rule to break this up now The product rule says that the the derivative of my product is going to be the derivative of the first guy So derivative x to the k times x Plus x to the k times the derivative of x and this is the good old-fashioned product rule at work here Now we're actually really close to the end here because I can use my inductive hypothesis to rephrase this Okay, I have the derivative of x to the k-th power and my inductive hypothesis. I'm going to make this in green here I'll make the equal signs in blue I guess but I'll make everything else in green the inductive hypothesis says that this Expression right here is going to be k x to the k minus 1 Okay, that's the inductive hypothesis working for you everything else up here is either going to be something It was already there like the times x or the plus x to the k or an additional assumption that we for example We said that it's okay to assume that that derivative right there is equal to 1 Now let's try to just work through all the math here on On the left term of this expression I have an x times an x to the k minus 1 if I combine those two terms I'll have the k being there but the 2x is multiplied to give me k x to the k-th power Okay, that's a all this stuff comes from there and then I have plus One times x to the k so that's just this now what you notice here Is that I have a factor of x to the k and another factor of x to the k So let's pull that factor pull that factor out and I'd have k plus 1 times x to the k Well, that's what I wanted to show right I wanted to show that the derivative of x to the k plus 1 is k plus 1 times x to the k if you go back to the previous slide That's exactly what I wanted to show and I've done it I started with the left-hand side split this up using algebra and split things up this way using the product rule Which I'm allowed to assume this is using the inductive hypothesis and the fact that I know what the derivative of x is and The rest of it is algebra and then algebra So all those steps are justified and that is the end of the proof because I have done the base case already That was pretty simple and now I've done the inductive step I assumed that the product the power rule Is true for exit for n equal to k and I've proven that it's true for n equals to k plus 1 So I have climbed the calculus stairwell and actually proven the power rule which is pretty nice Now if you want to prove the power rule for non integer powers Let's we often use things like x to the three halves and this this you'd have to have a completely different proof for that But this induction proof establishes it for positive integer powers of x And so there you have it unlocked one of the mysteries of calculus. Congratulations


Oh, it's huge. It's fun to watch those guys fly around and make plays dominant in the run game, stopping the run, and then attacking the football in the pass game and being aggressive, go getting it. So when they're flying around like that, making plays, it's a lot of fun. Yeah, it was nice to get Julio back, made some good plays for us early. One of the plays I'm thinking of is an out cut to the left, ran a really great route, was able to get the ball to him, and kind of got us going on that drive. So thankfully, we're getting back and hope to build up as we stack some games together. Yeah, no doubt. I think we kind of got back to our brand of football a little bit. Defense did a great job of making plays on the ball.  They did everything good. And then, offensively, we did some good things. Obviously, have some things to clean up, but excited to get a win and get rolling in the right direction. No, it's probably not any one thing that was preventing you guys from capitalizing on the turnovers more. But what kind of stood out about those drives? Yeah, I mean, I think late in the game, we're basically in four-minute offense, right? And basically the whole fourth quarter, we're in four minutes. So they're playing, basically cover zero, putting everybody in the box. And we're just trying to run to eat up the clock and hopefully get a few first downs. So obviously, when defense is getting turnovers, you want to be able to take advantage of it and score, but kind of played the situation a little bit there as well. Ideas were more involved today. Was that by design? Or is that just kind of what the defense was giving you? I think a little bit of both. Obviously, we had some opportunities that were drawn up for the tight ends and got them the ball. And then there's a couple of plays where they were just the guys open and made some plays. So thankful to get those guys going. Well, defense was playing great. Felt really good about where we're at. Obviously, wanted to score and wanted to extend that lead and get going a little bit more. I had a couple opportunities down in the red zone or higher red, extended red, in kick field goals or attempted field goals. Wanted to be able to put those drives in the end zone. But excited for some steps that we took today and obviously hats off to the defense and the way they played. I don't know. I've always liked to use my legs and try to keep the defense honest. Sometimes the coverage is good and protection is good. And that allows you to get outside the pocket. Sometimes you just feel a lane. Early drop back, I think a third down early on. Evens did a great job. I mean, an offensive line did a great job and kind of split the defense, gave me a crease. I was able to get vertical and get a first down there. So it's always there. And hopefully, we can continue to use it when we get those opportunities. Ravel said that they've got to do a better job of protecting you. He appreciates how tough you are. But they've got to try to do a better job of keeping you from getting hit. What's your reaction to that? I think it all works together, right? It's not just the old line or the receivers or myself. It all works together. And collectively, we have to do a better job of being able to get open, get the ball out, and protect me as well. When you have him or AJ, do you think the defense has to respect that? Having Julio on the field, they have to play you guys differently because they have to know where he is. You have to ask the Jaguars, but I think so. You know, I think if you don't respect him, if you don't account for him, then he's going to hurt you. You know, obviously, had some plays that got us going today. And like I said, hope to build on it as we move forward. And we took care of the ball a day. I think it was a big step in the right direction, considering how a couple weeks before that had went. So we have to keep doing that and then clean up where we have things to clean up. And take advantage of some opportunities in the past game, scoring when we get drives going, finishing with points every drive. And then if the defense can keep playing like that, we'll be in good shape.
