Is Need for Speed: V-Rally still good?

Need for Speed: V-Rally is a rally racing game released for the original PlayStation

back in 1997.

Despite the game's title, this is not actually a Need for Speed game, with Electronic Arts

simply tacking the brand onto the game for the North American market.

In fact, when the game was ported to the Nintendo 64, it was simply called V-Rally '99, and

published by a different company.

Anyway, semantics aside, V-Rally was developed by Eden Studios who would go on to release

a trilogy of V-Rally titles and then developing Test Drive Unlimited along with the Alone

in the Dark reboot, before closing down in 2008.

As you would expect from a popular franchise spawning an entire trilogy, Need for Speed:

V-Rally was met with mostly positive reviews.

Play Magazine gave the game an 8.7 out of 10 stating, "Without a doubt this is the

prettiest racing game so far and there's plenty to see and do, but as for the difficulty level,

just don't say we didn't warn you…"

IGN scored the game an 8 out of 10 noting, "With the sheer wealth of racing games available

on the PSX, the appeal of Need For Speed: V-Rally really comes down to personal interest.

If you're more of a CART/F1/weird futuristic kind of a racing dude, it probably won't deliver

the thrills you're after.

If you like the thought of driving a powerful car off-road, V-Rally's balls-out racing will

definitely deliver the goods.

If, like me, you really like rallying, it'll blow your socks off."

Finally, GameSpot disagreed and gave the game a 5.4 out of 10 proclaiming, "All in all,

V-Rally could have been one of the best driving games ever, but because of its shoddy control,

it simply becomes a great-looking game that isn't worth playing.

If you're in the market for a driving game, there are several better choices out there."

So, is Need for Speed: V-Rally still good, or is it not worth playing?

Let's take a look.

There are two main modes to choose from in V-Rally: arcade and championship.

The arcade mode features three different events to compete in, easy, medium, and hard.

In addition to each having an increased difficulty, each feature an increasing amount of events,

4 for easy, 6 for medium, and 8 for hard.

There are two goals in the arcade mode.

The short term goal is to make it to the next checkpoint before the timer runs out.

Making it through the checkpoint will reward more time as you race off to the next one.

When the timer runs out, it's game over, though you do have a few credits so you can try again.

The long term goal is to finish quickly.

Even though you are racing against a trio of opponents, what matters at the end of each

stage is how long it took to complete.

If you have the lowest overall time after all of the stages, you win the championship.

Backing up a bit, I should mention the car selection.

There are 11 to choose from and they are not broken into any meaningful categories.

However, based on horsepower and weight, there appear to be three different classes.

Whatever car you choose, you'll be racing against other cars of the same class.

This means you could choose the lightest, slowest cars, and compete on the hard championship

if you so choose, rather than being forced to use the most challenging cars on the hardest

rallies.

Moving on, let's talk about at the controls.

While V-Rally received generally favorable reviews upon release, it's most notable today

for the quirky handling characteristics.

Simply put, Need for Speed: V-Rally is twitchy, extremely twitchy.

For as difficult as the checkpoints are, especially on the hard rally, most of the difficulty

is derived from the controls.

A slight press of the d-pad will have a dramatic effect on the front tires, rather than a gradual

effect.

This means the player will have to lightly tap the d-pad for slight corrections.

Weirder still, the cars exhibit a strange pause while turning.

While holding the d-pad, you'll experience a sharp direction change, followed by a lull,

and then another surge in steering.

It is an extremely odd sensation and unlike any other racing game I have ever played.

This makes V-Rally a brutal game for novices and experts alike.

The learning curve is steep and trying to correct even the smallest of mistakes will

require some serious concentration.

It's worth noting V-Rally does support Namco's Negcon controller as well as traditional racing

wheels.

Unfortunately I do not own either of these to see if analog control improves the situation.

Additionally, some have noted the Greatest Hits release adds support for the Dual Shock

Analog controller, but I don't have the Greatest Hits version of Need for Speed: V-Rally,

so I can't confirm if that helps the issue either.

All I can do is report on my particular setup, which is the original release with the standard

controller of the time.

On the plus side, V-Rally does have some control nuances in addition to the twitchiness.

There are multiple different road surfaces including pavement, sand, gravel, mud, and

ice.

Additionally, there are weather effects like rain and snow.

All of these drastically affect the handling of the cars.

Tarmac is obviously grippy, allowing the player to take turns considerably faster than say,

mud, which requires the player to slow down considerably to make it around.

Despite this, the controls still feel off, like there is a disconnect between the tires

of the rally car and the road surface itself.

This becomes apparent when going over bumps and hills.

While in the air, hitting the brakes will cause the nose of the car to dive down.

This type of dramatic weight transfer should be impossible while in mid-air, even accounting

for the centrifugal force of rotating tires.

I wouldn't normally go this in-depth with the physics of a 20 year old racing game,

but I don't want to undersell how bizarre it can be to drive the 11 rally cars presented

in Need for Speed: V-Rally.

In any case, the controls can be mastered and while the hard rally is especially tough,

it's not impossible to come out victorious.

So with that, let's move onto the championship mode.

The championship is broken into a long season, with three stages at each stop.

Unlike the arcade mode, a stage in the championship can be either a three-lap race, or a more

realistic point A to point B affair.

Additionally, there are no checkpoints or time limits.

What is the same are the three opponents in your way, and the ultimate goal being to have

the lowest time in each stage.

As this is a racing season, championship points are awarded after clearing each event, 5 for

first, and zero for last.

You can also save between each country and continue the championship later if you so

choose.

There is also an option to change the difficulty which appears to be a global setting.

Rookie is the default level which I used for the arcade mode.

I bumped it up to Pro for the championship, and played around with the highest difficulty

level, Ace, as well.

Ace basically requires track memorization with fast opponents, while the Rookie mode

is very forgiving, with some seriously slow competition.

Pro is a nice happy medium.

I mention this because as a whole, I did not find Need for Speed: V-Rally all that difficult.

Even on my initial try, I was able to finish first on all three arcade modes in addition

to the long championship mode.

I even placed first on every event in the championship mode, dominating my opponents

with a flawless performance.

The artificial intelligence simply isn't very good, and once you dispatch an opponent,

they'll stay behind you, barring any major mistakes.

As bizarre as the controls are, they can be tamed.

This starts with some basic tuning adjustments.

My initial experiment was choosing the suspension level, and selecting soft allowed the car

to race through the mud with much less drama.

This works the other way as well, with a hard suspension making the paved roads much more

neutral to race around.

The second adjustment is the over-steer meter.

Dialing this back a bit does correct a lot of the twitchy behavior.

I assume this is sending more power to the front wheels resulting in understeer, though

I may be giving too much credit to the game's tire model.

Still, after finally coming to grips with the controls, and then experimenting with

the tuning, which is curiously accessible during the race, I began to tame the beast

that is Need for Speed: V-Rally, and finally start having some genuine fun.

Graphically, V-Rally is a great looking PlayStation game.

Now, the car models are extremely primitive, no doubt about it, but the actual environments

to race through look fantastic.

The road surfaces each look unique and distinguished, and the road side detail is exceptional.

Be it the jungle, a swamp, or the side of a mountain, everything blends together seamlessly

to make the player feel like they are at an actual location, rather than driving through

a video game tunnel.

The framerate is also quite good, hovering at a smooth 30 frames per second without a

hiccup.

Even the night races with real time lighting, don't phase the game engine one bit, with

no framerate loss whatsoever.

V-Rally is not flawless though.

There are some seems in the polygons, a weird glitch when the replay camera changes, and

some pop-up.

The pop-up isn't too bad if I'm honest, never impeding gameplay but also reminding the player

this is an early 3D racer, on the PlayStation.

I will say the texture warping isn't bad either, sometimes vanishing completely, other times

more prominent.

Still, all of the graphic issues are extremely minor.

There are some nice little touches as well, like the background shifting up and down matching

the perspective of the car, rather than remaining a static plane, and there is some obligatory

lens flare.

Overall, the smooth visuals and rich environments do make for a visually appealing experience.

The sound is also of great quality, though expected for a CD based game.

The engine notes are realistic enough, though somewhat muffled, with a smooth transition

as the motor winds through the rev range.

It's easy to hear gear changes and it even helps in the corners, as the motor loses revs

as friction slows the car down.

It does a nice job helping to communicate grip and power levels to the player.

The engine sounds even echo in tunnels, which is a thoughtful touch.

The background music is also pleasant.

From what I can tell, this is not a licensed soundtrack.

To my ears it sounds like a house band cranking out some generic rock tunes.

This is not a bad thing either.

The style ranges from lounge to metal and everything in between, and the crystal clear

sounds, with minimal computer interference, matches the rawness of racing a rally machine

down the rally circuits of the world.

The only issue I have is the slight popping sound between tracks, like the end of the

music was not faded out or cut correctly.

Still, this is a minor gripe.

So, with all of that out of the way, we arrive back to the question asked at the beginning

of the video.

Is Need for Speed: V-Rally still good?

First, there is no doubt this game is showing its age.

It is a 1997 PlayStation game after all.

The polygon counts are low, the textures are pixelated, there are glitches, and many road

side obstacles are bill-boarded, meaning they always face the camera.

While I find it charming for sure, games released on the next generation of consoles look considerably

better, both technically and artistically.

This should come as no surprise.

However, it's the controls that continue to baffle me.

When I think rally racing, I think drifting sideways while my tires chew through dirt.

Drifting and rally are like peanut butter and jelly.

Sadly, V-Rally features no such marriage.

Even worse, I'm not convinced the tires are even meaningfully connected to the road.

The tiniest bump will send each car wobbling side to side while the player wrestles to

regain control.

I find it odd most mainstream reviewers of the day gave them a pass, except GameSpot.

Perhaps this is a sign of the game aging.

Perhaps driving physics for 3D racers was still unrefined in 1997, and reviewers were

more forgiving of such flaws.

But for me, I cannot recommend this game to casual racing fans.

The controls are neither forgiving like an arcade game, nor realistic like a simulation,

and certainly do not accurately convey the feeling of racing on dirt and snow.

However, for hardcore racing fans, there is a lot to like in Need for Speed: V-Rally.

The controls feel foreign and strange, and present a brand new racing style to learn

and conquer.

And in this regard, V-Rally provided me with plenty of enjoyment.

The game demands precision and I found myself rapidly tapping the brake button to avoid

locking my wheels, allowing me to get a better entry into a turn, and then accelerate out.

V-Rally also does a nice job communicating the car's behavior to the player, and it's

easy to tell where the limits of each car are.

If you dig this type of thing, you'll find a rather enjoyable racing game lurking within.

On top of this, the track design is very good, with the just the right amount of speed sections

and technical sections, along with a good amount of elevation changes, and most importantly,

the track design always works within the limitations of the cars.

The navigator is spot on as well, allowing the player to find breaking points on upcoming

turns without having already memorized a circuit, and then further mastering a circuit on subsequent

laps.

It's the type of game I can really zone out on, with the constant left and right handers

presenting a Zen-like experience.

Sadly, there is little reward for getting past the learning curve.

All you receive for victory is a little screen offering congratulations for the winning.

There are no new cars to unlock, no new modes, no tracks, nothing.

The back of the game's packaging advertises 42 tracks and 11 cars, and this is truly all

there is.

A more structured game play experience; with new tracks and cars being rewarded every few

stages would have been a welcome addition, enticing the player to keep racing.

Instead, the massive 24-race championship is presented in one large chunk, with no rewards

along the way.

Another sign of Need for Speed: V-Rally showing its age.

However I must give credit where credit is due.

There is a lot of variety.

This comes in the form of 8 different locals including Indonesia, England, Spain, Safari,

Corsica, New Zealand, French Alps, and Sweden all offering a wide variety of racing challenges,

from wide open circuits to narrow village streets, different road surfaces, tight turns

and sweeping bends.

On top of the previously mentioned weather, the time of day changes from mid-day, to sunset,

and of course night.

No two races feel alike and it prevents Need for Speed: V-Rally from ever feeling boring

or stale.

Nothing is repeated, ever, and that is kind of amazing.

So yeah, V-Rally is still a good game.

It is not amazing by any stretch, and I wouldn't even call it great, but for hardcore racing

fans there is more than enough here to sink your racing teeth into.

Learning the nuance of the controls is a satisfying experience, mastering the courses is fun,

the crashes can be entertaining, and the overall presentation is top notch, featuring some

wonderful visuals and a solid audio presentation.

For casual racing fans however, Need for Speed: V-Rally is probably one best to avoid.

The title lacks the easy to learn, tough to master quality something more accessible like

Burnout has, allowing that title and others like it to have a more universal appeal.

V-Rally's borked controls hold it back from being a classic, and the dated structure void

of any sort of reward system means if you don't love the simple act of driving a four-wheeled

machine through the mud and snow, there is little here to keep a casual fan engaged.

Thankfully, this is the first in a trilogy, and I look forward to seeing how the series

progressed across different platforms, from V-Rally 2 on the Dreamcast and V-Rally 3 on

the Xbox, among many other ports.

So that about covers it.

This first installment of the V-Rally series is a good game, but definitely not the media

darling it once was, and is certainly not for everyone.

Compartmentalized

vs Holistic Thinking. Thoughts about thoughts

by Colaborama

The yin and yang concept, or �Principle of Polarity�, is a foundational, natural

law of our creation here. You�ll find a duality in nearly everything. Left/Right.

Black/White. Hot/Cold. This principle has many manifestations within our body, as well.

It�s a crucial concept when nailing down your health.

When it comes to mental health, in this case information processing, this polarity shows

it�s two-sided face again. On one end we have compartmentalized thinking, on the other

we have what is known as �holistic� thinking.

Compartmentalized thinking is �left brain� thinking. Calculated. Scheduled. Scientific

minded. This is where you focus on specific topics, gathering as much data as you can

to formulate your theories with.

This is how our education system teaches us. Chemistry. Biology. Physics. Everything is

separated. Our medical system is compartmentalized, too. �Neurologists�, �immunologists�,

�oncologists�. Teaching us this way has issues, and is not by accident. It�s easy

to fool people when you lead them down one path their whole lives. They may think they

are �logical�, but they�re anything but.

Holistic thinking is what is on the other end of the spectrum, this is right brain processing.

Intuitive thinking. It is being able feel how the dots of information connect, bringing

it all together to solve problems. �Holistic health� workers bring every avenue of what

makes some �healthy� into the picture, to find the best path. They�re exploding

in popularity and solving many issues that others can�t for a reason. Logic needs intuition

to balance it. To make sure you ain�t being �bullsh**ed�. You gut feeling is usually

right, right?

We have problems whenever that Yin/Yang duality is out of balance. Our problem in this society

now is that we are too compartmentalized, primarily academias fault, but reinforced

by cultural habits.

Doctors don�t usually know jack about nutrition, and that�s why they�re having a real tough

time ending health epidemics. Too compartmentalized. People have skewed perspective of what�s

going on with the world because they don�t see how certain things connect, so hyper focused

on one issue that they can�t see the big picture. These are only a couple examples

of this imbalance.

If you train yourself to not only be a hardcore left brainer, a �rememberer and regurgitater�,

but a badass right brained dot connector, too, you�ll have no issue navigating this

world and figuring it out.

16 Top BIGGEST Dog Breeds! - Duration: 11:48.

16 Top Biggest Dog Breeds!

16.

Komondor Also known as the Hungarian Sheep Dog, the

Komondor is a very large, typically white-colored livestock guardian which is distinct not just

for its size, but the strange nature of its coat.

Komondor dogs are also typically called "Mop Dogs" because their coat clumps together

and very closely resembles a floor mop.

The earliest mention of the Komondor is a Hungarian codex from 1544, and the breed has

since been classified a Hungarian national treasure.

Bred for its large and muscular frame as well as its natural instinct to protect livestock,

the Komondor is the perfect companion for a shepherd and is well equipped to carry out

its duty.

They have been upholding this task in Hungary since at least the 13th century, when they

were brought to the region by nomadic people who originally fled their homeland after the

Mongols invaded in 1237.

15.

Newfoundland dog Known for being a robust working breed, the

Newfoundland dog is instantly recognizable not just for its size, but its full, long

coat.

Males of the breed reach a maximum weight of 176 pounds on average and a height of about

28 inches, while females are just a couple inches shorter on average and weigh up to

143 pounds.

They are ideal dogs for a cold, wet climate due to their water-resistant coat and webbed

feet.

These dogs are ideal for working close with as well as being owned as pets by humans,

as they have a very cool temperament and are generally fairly calm in nature.

As the name states, they originate in Newfoundland, Canada, and it's thought that they gained

their mastiff-like characteristics from breeding with Portuguese Mastiffs brought over by fishermen

in the 16th century.

14.

Caucasian shepherd dog Originally registered as having been bred

in the USSR but native to Georgia and other parts of Caucasus, the Caucasian Shepherd

Dog is well known for its size.

Males get between 27 and 31 inches tall and typically weigh in between 110 and 220 pounds,

while females average 25 - 28 inches tall and weigh anywhere between 100 and 180 pounds.

As the name implies, Caucasian shepherd dogs were originally bred for the purpose of aiding

shepherds in the Caucasus mountains.

Now they are widely kept as pets, but can still frequently be found aiding in their

original occupation.

They do require special training, however, as they don't typically get along well with

other dogs, and their large size can make them difficult to control.

13.

Scottish deerhound The Scottish deerhound is another very large

breed of dog, originally bred to hunt Red Deer by a type of pursuit hunting known as

coursing.

Males of the Scottish deerhound breed reach anywhere from 85 - 110 pounds, and up to 32

inches in height at the shoulder, whereas the females come in at 28 inches and up to

95 pounds on average.

These dogs have a long lineage, too - their ancestors reach back long before recorded

history in the region.

While they aren't as fast as a Greyhound on smooth surfaces, Scottish deerhounds can

easily outpace a Greyhound on rough or uneven terrain.

This, along with a better disposition toward rough weather, is some of the reason why they

were so popular as hunting hounds.

12.

Neapolitan mastiff Another example of the massive mastiff family,

the Neapolitan mastiff is revered for its absolutely colossal size.

Males of the breed can easily reach 150+ pounds and a height of 30 inches or more, while females

aren't much smaller at anywhere from 24 - 29 inches and 130 pounds.

Because of this large frame, Neapolitan mastiffs are well known for their usefulness as guard

dogs.

Aiding in this role is the fact that these mastiffs are known to be extremely protective

of their family and property.

Around their family, though, they are known to be gentle and loving - rarely barking unless

they are provoked.

The breed has existed for hundreds of years, but the modern iteration derives from Italy,

when after World War II an Italian painter who sought to establish the breed by way of

a kennel he built specifically for breeding these dogs.

11.

St. Bernard The St. Bernard is perhaps the most well known

breed of large dog, due mainly to the celebrity status of certain individual St. Bernards.

Most famously, the movie series starting with 1992's Beethoven featured a lovable but

unruly St. Bernard.

Another example is 1993's Sandlot, in which A St. Bernard portrayed "The Beast".

Additionally, the 1981 Stephen King horror novel and subsequent 1983 movie Cujo starred

a St. Bernard.

However, the St. Bernard was not established as a breed to be movie stars.

In fact, the breed goes back far beyond the invention of motion pictures; the earliest

written record of the breed dates back to 1707.

At a maximum weight of 260 pounds and a height of up to 35 inches, they are ideal working

dogs.

This was indeed their primary use - serving farmers and dairymen as well as pulling duty

as livestock guardians and hunting dogs.

Most notably they were supposedly used as rescue dogs, and this is where they get their

iconic barrel of brandy around the neck.

The legend says that St. Bernards would carry these barrels of brandy to victims of avalanches,

who would drink the brandy to stay warm until rescuers arrived.

10.

Alaskan Malamute Well revered for their beauty and intelligence,

the Alaskan Malamute is a favorite by far among lovers of large dogs.

In terms of functionality, the Malamute is well suited for things like sledding and pulling

large loads, with an emphasis on serving as a draft animal due to its robust strength

and the fact that it is not quite as fast as other sled dogs.

These dogs are also one of the oldest breeds of large dogs - with their lineage dating

back as far as 12,000 years, when dogs first arrived in the region.

The Alaskan Malamute itself was first bred at least 1000 years ago, when the Thule people

moved to Alaska from Siberia.

These dogs can reach as much as 130 pounds and stand as high as 30 inches tall, though

they often appear to be much heavier due to their thick, double coat.

9.

The Irish wolfhound Another very popular breed of large dog is

the Irish Wolfhound.

Given this name not for their appearance but rather for their original purpose, Irish Wolfhounds

were bred specifically to hunt wolves.

They were very successful at this task too - their huge stature was not only intimidating

to wolves, but when it came time to fight, they were formidable.

The American Kennel Club considers the Irish Wolfhound to be the tallest of all dog breeds

- males reach a minimum height of 32 inches and females reach at least 30 inches.

Additionally, males weigh at least 120 pounds and females weigh at least 105 pounds.

8.

Russian black terrier When most people think of terriers, they probably

picture the tiny breeds like the Yorkshire or the Jack Russell, but it's worth noting

that dogs of the terrier name reached the complete opposite end of the size spectrum

as well.

The Russian black terrier, for instance, is a huge dog which can reach 130 pounds and

30 inches in height.

Interesting to note is that the Russian black terrier, despite the name, are not true terriers.

They are somewhat of an amalgamation of many dog breeds, with up to 17 different breeds

believed to have been used in their creation.

This is another breed which was developed in the USSR - having been made specifically

for working tasks within the Russian military.

As a result they're one of the younger breeds on this list - the first examples showing

up in 1955.

7.

Leonberger Another large dog to come from Germany is

the Leonberger, which was originally bred in the city of Leonberg, Germany, to serve

as a symbol for the town.

The city's crest featured a lion, and the legend says the the Leonberger dog was developed

to mimic the lion on the crest.

This was done in the 1830s by a dog breeder named Heinrich Essig, who also happened to

be the Mayor of Leonberg.

Males of the Leonberger breed can get up to 170 pounds in weight and 30 inches in height,

with females reaching up to 135 pounds in weight and 28 inches in height.

6.

Tosa Inu Another version of the mastiff is the Tosa

Inu, which originates from Japan.

These dogs are considered to be a fairly rare breed, and as a result purebreds can fetch

a high price.

The dog was developed in Tosa, Japan, ostensibly for the purpose of fighting, and it is still

used for that purpose today.

The Tosa Inu also has one of the most varied size ranges on this list, with individuals

of the breed which are born in Japan typically reaching between 80 and 135 pounds, while

breeders outside of Japan have focused on larger size dogs, allowing them to reach up

to 200 pounds and 32 inches in height.

5.

Bernese mountain dog One of four large and closely related dogs

bred in the Swiss Alps, the Bernese mountain dog is regarded not just for its large size

and usefulness herding livestock, but also for its beautiful and full mountain coat.

The breed was officially established in 1907, and these dogs are most at home in the Swiss

mountains, whether they are pulling loads, herding sheep, or just being generally helpful

around the farm.

Males of the breed reach up to 120 pounds and 28 inches tall, while females are only

a little lighter at 110 pounds and just slightly shorter at 26 inches.

They are distinctive for their tri-colored and shiny coats, which are known to shed year-round.

4.

Boerboel

Also known as the South African mastiff, the Boerboel is yet another example of the far

reach of the mastiff family of dog breeds.

This particular breed was originally developed for use on the farm but most notably as a

guard of the homestead - their large and fearsome appearance coupled with fierce loyalty to

their family has made them an ideal breed for protection and general guard duty.

At an upper weight range of 170 pounds and heights of up to 28 inches, the Boerboel is

known to be one of the more powerful dog breeds, thus they've made great worker dogs as well

throughout their history.

The breed is thought to date back to 1652 when Jan van Riebeeck arrived in the region

and began breeding dogs with those indigenous to the region.

3.

Anatolian shepherd As the name implies, the Anatolian shepherd

dog originates in the Anatolia region of Turkey, where it was originally bred as a protector

and herder of livestock.

Its large stature makes it well suited for this task, with males of the breed weighing

in at around 140 pounds and standing 32 inches tall at the shoulder, and females of the breed

not being much smaller, at up to 120 pounds and 31 inches.

It is thought that Anatolian shepherd dogs have been doing their job at keeping wolves

and other predators at bay in the region for as long as 6000 years.

2.

Great Dane It's nearly impossible to put together a

list of the largest dog breeds without at least mentioning the Great Dane.

Like the St. Bernard, the Great Dane is one of the most iconic large-stature dogs, coming

in at up to 180 pounds and 30 inches tall.

Notably, the famous cartoon dog Scooby Doo is a Great Dane.

The breed itself, however, originates long before cartoons.

Dogs resembling Great Danes can be found dating back to Ancient Greece, with depictions recorded

in at least the 13th and 14th centuries BC.

Nevertheless, the modern breed is known to have originated in Germany, and was used to

great success as a hunting dog.

The name, which was originally the "German Boarhound", was changed in the 19th century

after tensions with Germany began to grow in the rest of the world.

English mastiff By far the most prevalent kind of mastiff

is the English Mastiff.

They are best known for their huge size - with males reaching sizes of 30 inches tall at

minimum and weighing up to 250 pounds, and females coming in just a few inches shorter

and 180 pounds on the higher end.

English Mastiffs have led to many other breeds of mastiffs around the world - which can be

confusing for people who don't know how to tell the breeds apart.

English Mastiffs, however, trace their lineage back quite a ways.

There are depictions of English Mastiffs in paintings as far back as the 16th century,

possibly even farther back.

The modern breed dates back to the late 19th century, when a dog named Beaufort outbred

all other dogs of the type and became the progenitor of the modern English Mastiff breed.

REVEALED THE MOST UNKNOWN FREEMASON SECRETS - Duration: 5:55.

REVEALED: THE MOST UNKNOWN FREEMASON SECRETS

Perhaps you have heard of the Freemason but if you haven't here is a brief description

of exactly who the Freemason are.

The Freemason are a religious group who have apparently been around for centuries.

Over the years the actions of the Freemason have been the stuff of scandal and urban legend.

Many things have been said about the Freemason, including that they are a sort of religious

cult.

Whatever, the truth is about the Freemason's the practice and the culture have been passed

down through generations.

As for what these practices are here are some claims about the Freemasons that we may have

heard of or maybe not.

FREEMASON'S REFUSE TO TESTIFY AGAINST EACH OTHER A word of caution to the Judiciary system.

This is a religious organization that refuses to bear witness against their brother.

Even if they are subpoenaed to testify regardless of being sworn in they will lie if they feel

they will incriminate their fellow man.

So, they consider perjury less of a crime than actually turning on a another member.

FREEMASON'S HAVE SECRET HANDSHAKE AND NUMEROUS PASSWORDS

THEY WORSHIP THE SUN There are those who actually do this as a general practice and apparently

Masons are among them.

According to the group the sun is a time of rebirth.

It is said that the Mason's have lodges in the east and west to observe the sun when

it rises or sets.

THEIR SYMBOL IS ON MONEY Look at the back of a one dollar bill and see that triangular

symbol.

Ever wonder what that is, yes some may say a pyramid and rightfully so.

But there are those who believe that this is the universal symbol for the Freemason

group.

So, how did it get there well Benjamin Franklin noble statesman and later President of Pennsylvania

sat on the committee to design the currency, he has also been rumored to be a Freemason.

However, if he was the only known one in the group who was, but at the same token remember

this was a man of great influence at that time that many respected, it maybe more than

just a mere coincidence this symbol appears of the dollar.

MASON'S HAVE THEIR HAND IN SPACE TRAVEL Some believe that Freemasons can't be trusted that

they wish to take over the earth.

But there are others who feel that the organization wishes to go even further they want to take

over the universe.

May sound ludicrous but there are some facts to back up this claim.

Famed astronaut Buzz Aldrin has admitted to being a Freemason and he was the first man

on the moon.

So, these are some of the secrets or maybe fabrications surrounding the Freemasons.

Yes, like anything people tend to talk about stuff they don't truly understand.

Yes, Freemasons are a religious sort of organization, but does that make them some sort of cult.

After all, there are several religions out there today and some seem to rule over a person's

life more so than others.

Perhaps, it's really not a place to judge but to just live and let live, provided what

is going on doesn't effect our way

of life.

How do you describe this?(8) (Vocabulary Building) [ ForB English Lesson ] - Duration: 1:48.

Hi everyone and welcome back to another lesson of ForB's English.

In this lesson, you're going to tell us what's happening in the video.

Let's take a look.

So what's happening in this video?

Well: She is putting the kettle on.

To put the kettle on is a commonly used phrase in Britain.

If you go to someone's house in the UK your host will usually say to you "I'll put the kettle on"

when they want to make you a cup of tea or coffee and we do this a lot in the UK.

You can also tell your host if you are a guest to just put the kettle on so you can use it as an instruction.

Now let's practice this phrase together.

Please repeat after me: She is putting the kettle on.

Good job.

Let's try it one more time.

She is putting the kettle on.

Excellent.

Please like this video if you liked it and remember to subscribe to our channel

and you know next time if you go to someone's house tell them to put the kettle on.

See you next time.

WAS ANNOYED TO FIND IT SHUT

DOWN.

AT 7:30 A POWER OUTAGE LEFT THE

D TRAIN STUCK IN THE TUNNEL.

HUNDREDS WERE PACKED INSIDE.

THIS E TRAIN STOPPED WITH ONE

4/21: Local Political Roundup on State of Mind - Duration: 23:58.

DAN:

DAN: MCGOWAN HAD AN AGREEMENT --

WE DON'T GET INTO THIS BECAUSE

WE ARE CASUAL HERE.

MY GOAL IS TO BE OUT DRESSED ON

EVERY PROGRAM.

AND IT IS WORKING.

SOMETHING IS WORKING.

LAST NIGHT, I OPENED THE SHOW

WITH A MINT IN MY MOUTH AND

ALMOST COUGHED UP HALF AN LONG.

WELCOME.

AS YOU CAN SEE

, FRIDAY NIGHT

PROGRAMS ARE ALWAYS RECORDED ON

THURSDAY, SO DONALD TRUMP AT A

PRESS CONFERENCE YESTERDAY -- IF

ALL HECK BREAKS LOOSE ON FRIDAYPWE TRY TO CATCH UP ON MONDAY,

BUT IT ALSO GIVES A CHANCE TO

FORGET THE RUNDOWN AND

TACKLE X

NUMBER OF MATTERS DEPENDING ON

WHO IS IN THE HOUSE.

IT'S GREAT TO BE IN-HOUSE

LITERALLY -- AS

IT HAD A MORE OR

CATAMOUNT?

I THINK

OF THE BIG DOESN'T.

WE ARE ALL IN THE SAME BUILDING.

HERE'S THE FIRST HEADLINE.

PROVIDENCE POLICE UNION POSES

PROFILING ORDINANCE.

DAN MCGOWAN IS ON THE BEAT WHEN

IT COMES TO THE CITY OF

PROVIDENCE.

IS IT STUCK?

I'ING ABOUT THE COVERAGE

IN THE CITY OF PROVIDENCE.

NO ONE DOES IT BETTER AND YOU

KIND OF OWN THAT.

I'M TRYING TO PUFF YOU UP

BECAUSE YOU ARE TIRELE

I SOLD YOU OUT.

DAN M:

THERE WAS AN AGREEMENT,

NO TIES ON DAN YORKE.

DAN: THERE WE GO.

POLICE CAN GO ABOUT THEIR

BUSINESS IN THE SEE OF

PROVIDENCE.

TALK TO ME ABOUT THIS.

DAN M: THIS IS FLYING WAY

UNDER

THE RADAR.

I TALKED TO THE ADMINISTRATION

AND THEY SAY THEY'VE GOT ABOUT

30 PHONE CALLS IN TOTAL ON THIS

ORDINANCE.

THIS IS A HIGH PROFILE THING

THAT LOTS OF ACT VESTS ARE

SHOWING UP AT CITY HALL AND

-- AND AGITATING FOR.

IT'S VERY MUCH FLYING UNDER THE

RADAR FOR VOTERS IN THE CITY.

THE BASIC IDEA, IT HAS BEEN

PITCHED AS A WAY TO CRACK DOWN

ON THE DISPARITY IN RACIAL

PROFILING IN TRAFFIC STOPS.

THAT IS HOW IT WAS INITIA

PITCHED.

WE KNOW BLACK AND HISPANIC

PEOPLE ARE PULLED OVER MORE THAN

WHITE PEOPLE.

LET'S FIND A WAY TO REPORT OUT,

FIGURE OUT WHY AND MOVE FORWARD.

THE THING IS, THIS ORDINANCE IS

INCREDIBLY FAR REACHING.

IT HAS THINGS ABOUT SANCTUARY

CITIES, WHAT POLICE

CAN AND

CANNOT DO WITH FEDERAL

IMMIGRATION OFFICERS AND IT

DESCRIBES HOW THE POLICE

DEPARTMENT SHOULD HANDLE IT AND

DATABASE WHICH IS AN IMPORTANT

INTELLIGENCE UNIT.

DAN: IS IT COMMON

TO HAVE A

PRESCRIPTION FOR THE POLICE

DEPARTMENT TO NOTIFY MOMMY AND

DADDY IF JOHNNY IS INVOLVED IN A

GANG?

OR HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS BEING

INVOLVED IN A GANG?

TED: THIS IS DEFINITELY

UNCOMMON.

AND PEOPLE CAN CRITICIZE AND SAY

TOO OFTEN THAT PEOPLE MIGHT GET

ON A LIST THAT THEY DON'T BELONG

ON, BUT THESE ARE CONSIDERED

PRIVATE.

THIS DOES CHANGE A LITTLE BIT

ABOUT THIS.

IF YOU ARE UNDER THE AGE OF 18,

YOU CAN REQUEST TO BE TAKEN OFF

THE LIST.

THERE'S A NINE MEMBER COMMUNITY

PANEL --

DAN: THEY'VE BEEN AROUND FOR A

LONG TIME.

TED: YOU

CAN APPEAL YOUR NAME ON

THAT GANG LIST TO THEM.

IT IS -- I

THINK IT MAKES COPS

HAVE TO REPORT OUT A LITTLE BIT

MORE.

DAN: YOU CAN'T ASK A YOUNGSTER

FOR HIS IDENTIFICATION MORE THAN

ONCE?

WHAT HAPPENS --

IF OFFICER

MCGOWAN ASKS FOR THE ID AND THEN

JUST FOLLOWING UP, CAN I SEE

YOUR ID?

TED:

IT HAS BEEN WATERED DOWN IN

A WAY THAT A LOT OF THINGS

THAT

WERE INITIALLY INCLUDED IN IT

ARE NOT -- OFFICERS CAN ALWAYS

FIND WAYS AROUND SOME OF THE

PROVISIONS IN THIS ORDINANCE,

WHICH THE INITIAL ORDINANCE

SUGGESTED HE -- PEOPLE COULD BE

FINED OR FIRED FOR NOT FOLLOWING

THE PROPOSAL.

DAN:

IF AN OFFICER CAN WORK HIS

WAY AROUND AND ORDINANCE, WAIT A

SECOND -- WHAT'S THE PURPOSE OF

THE ORDINANCE?

IT'S EITHER COMPLIANCE OR

NONCOMPLIANCE.

IT'S EITHER CONSENSUS AND

MOVES

ENFORCEMENT FORWARD OR IT

DOESN'T.

TED: SOMETIMES THE

PURPOSES JUST

TO SEND A MESSAGE.

SOME OF THE MEMBERS OF CITY

COUNCIL ARE SPEAKING OUT A LOT

AND THEY WANT TO SHOW THEY ARE

TAKING ACTION AGGRESSIVELY AS WE

HAVE HAD THESE CONTROVERSIES

ABOUT POLICE INTERACTION WITH

MINORITY COMMUNITIES.

IT IS INTERESTING BECAUSE

SENATOR WHITEHOUSE SAID WHEN A

LOT OF THIS WAS GOING ON IN

FERGUSON, HE SAID HE WAS PROUD

OF THE PROVIDENCE POLICE BECAUSE

HE FELT THEY COULD TEACH A LOT

TO POLICE IN OTHER JURISDICTIONS

ABOUT HOW TO HANDLE THESE ISSUES

CORRECTLY.

IT IS

INTERESTING TO SEE THEM

UNDER THE MICROSCOPE, BUT IT

REMINDS ME OF HOW

LITTLE CITY

HALL COVERAGE WE HAVE OTHER THAN

DAN.

THERE ARE A LOT OF ISSUES TO BE

LOOKED AT AND I WOULD NOT SAY IT

SOMETHING A LOT OF PROVIDENCE

RESIDENTS ARE AWARE OF.

DAN M: BY MAY 1, HE WILL LIKELY

HAVE A MAJOR ORDINANCE THAT WILL

NOT GO INTO EFFECT UNTIL 2018

BUT YOU WILL PROBABLY HAVE

A

PRESS CONFERENCE AND CEREMONY

THAT IS SIGNED INTO LAW AND A

MAJOR CHANGE, JUST HOW THEY DO

DAY TO DAY WORK.

DAN: WE WILL SEE IF WE CAN'T

COVER THAT A LITTLE MORE NEXT

WEEK.

THERE IS A SMOKING ORDINANCE

ABOUT TO BE THUMBS UP HERE.

DAN M: IT WAS KIND OF SNUCK IN

WITH THE COMMUNITY SAFETY ACT.

IT LOOKS LIKE THIS IS MOVING.

MAKE SOME ROOM IN THE NEWS.

I KNEW IT WAS ON THE

AGENDA.

THIS THING HAS BEEN PROPOSED --

THE JUST OF IT IS IT HAS BEEN A

LITTLE WATERED DOWN TO THE AREA

RIGHT AROUND KENNEDY PLAZA, FROM

CITY HALL, ALL OF THAT AREA, NO

SMOKING, PAST THE COMMITTEE WITH

SUPPORT FROM SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO

HAD BEEN AGAINST IT BEFORE.

LOOKS LIKE IT IS ON TRACK TO

PASSAGE.

DAN:

THE FIRST OFFENSE IS A

WARNING AND $50 FINE.

TED: WHEN

WAS THE LAST TIME WE

HAD A REPUBLICAN CITY

COUNCILMEMBER IN PROVIDENCE?

IN A ONE PARTY FOR BASICALLY MY

ENTIRE LIFE

-- JOKES

ASIDE --

DAN: ARE YOU BARELY 30?

TED: 32.

DAN: 32 AND ACTING LIKE HE'S

OLD.

MY POINT BEING

, HAVING NO

POLITICAL PARTY OPPOSITION FOR

DECADES, THERE'S A REPUBLICAN

CITY COMMITTEE.

WHEN

THERE --

IT'S ALL INSIDE

THE COUNCIL DEMOCRATS AND I

THINK THAT LEADS TO LESS PUBLIC

ENGAGEMENT AND DEBATE.

TED: I THINK THAT IS 100% RIGHT.

IT TENDS TO BE THE LEADERSHIP OF

THE CITY COUNCIL AND THERE'S A

HANDFUL AGAINST THE LEADERSHIP

FOR WHATEVER REASON.

USUALLY, THE FIGHTS HAPPEN THERE

BUT IN BIG ISSUES LIKE THIS,

BECAUSE THERE'S NOT A LOT OF

COVERAGE THAT GOES INTO IT --

DAN: THERE'S NOT A LOT OF

COVERAGE FOR THE RECALL

ELECTION.

A GUY THAT OUGHT TO BE VOTED

OUT, THE IRONY MIGHT BE --

DAN M: THAT IS A BIG

THING GOING

ON IN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD.

IT WOULD BE

VERY DIFFICULT TO

OVERCOME.

DAN: IS

LISSA PONTY CLEARED UP

HIS

-- HE'S MAKING MULTIMILLION

DOLLAR DECISIONS EVERY DAY.

ONLY IN PROVIDENCE.

RIGHT

NOW, THE MAYOR IS GOING

TO DELIVER HIS THIRD BUDGET ON

WEDNESDAY AND WHAT YOU ARE

SEEING IN CITY HALL IS A

SITUATION WHERE EVERY TIME

SOMETHING GETS GOING, YOU GET

THE QUESTION ABOUT THE CITY

COUNCIL PRESIDENT, QUESTIONS

ABOUT KEVIN JACKSON.

IT IS A BIG DISTRACTION IN CITY

HALL RIGHT NOW.

DELOITTE PRODUCED FOR US A

DEFECTIVE SYSTEM.

THE SYSTEM THEY GAVE US WAS

EFFECTIVE, SOME WOULD SAY

BROKEN.

WE DID NOT GET WHAT WE PAID FOR.

WE PAID THEM A A LOT OF MONEY

BUT WE DID NOT GET WHAT WE PAID

FOR AND THEY REPRESENTED TO US

THAT IT WAS IN MUCH BETTER SHAPE

THAN IN FACT IT WAS.

DAN:

YES.

DAN M: THAT IS WHAT THE GOVERNOR

SAYS.

DAN:

THAT WAS FEBRUARY AND WE

HAD A HEADLINE INDICATING THE

JUSTICE APARTMENT IS IN THE

HOUSE ASKING A LOT OF QUESTIONS

AND ARE TWO THINGS THAT ARE

DISTURBING ABOUT THAT.

ONE, THAT THEY ARE.

SECOND, WE HAD TO FIND OUT

THROUGH A JOURNAL STORY.

DID YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?

WHY, IF THE FEDS ARE LOOKING

INTO OPERATIONS IN A VERY

CONTROVERSIAL, TECHNICAL BACK

OLD FOR THE ADMINISTRATION

, THE

DAY NOT TRY TO GET IN FRONT OF

THAT AND BE TRANSPARENT ABOUT

IT?

DAN M:

I DON'T KNOW.

I SUPPOSE WHEN YOU HAVE BAD NEWS

COME AND THEY HAVE BEEN FLAILING

FOR A LONG TIME, SO MAYBE NOT A

SURPRISE THAT THEY DID NOT GAME

OUT THAT THIS WAS GOING TO GET

OUT THE MATTER WHAT.

I'M OF TWO MINDS.

ON THE ONE HAND, ANY TIME THE

U.S. ATTORNEY'S OFFICE IS

SEEKING DOCUMENTS, YOU WONDER

WHAT THEIR INTEREST IS.

I BELIEVE OVER $200 MILLION HAS

GONE TO DELOITTE SO FAR.

CERTAINLY, THINK OF WHAT THE

GOVERNOR JUST SAID THERE.

HE IS A LAWYER AND THEY

REPRESENTED TO US THAT WAS IN

BETTER SHAPE THAN IT WAS.

DID THEY DO SO IN THE INVOICES?

THERE'S A LOT OF WAYS THAT YOU

COULD SEE THIS GOING BUT WE

REALLY DON'T A MUCH.

IN MY LAST SEVEN YEARS, I HAVE

SEEN REPEATEDLY THEY GET EXCITED

ABOUT AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS

BIG, LOCAL SCANDAL AND IT

HEATERS OUT.

BOTH OF THE STUDIO

INVESTIGATIONS, NO CHARGES CAME

OUT OF THAT.

PEOPLE SEE THESE HEADLINES AND I

THINK THEY EXPECT PEOPLE TO BE

FROG MARCHED OUT OF THE

STATEHOUSE AND WE KEEP SEEING

THAT IT LOOKS BAD BUT THERE'S NO

CRIMINAL WRONGDOING.

PEOPLE SHOULD TEMPER WHAT THEY

EXPECTED THE MOMENT.

DAN M: I

TOTALLY AGREE.

YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY THEY DIDN'T

JUST CALL A PRESS CONFERENCE TO

SAY THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE IS

INVESTIGATING -- WHEN IS THE

GOVERNOR GOING TO BE IN

HANDCUFFS? WE DON'T HAVE ANY

EVIDENCE THAT IS THE CASE.

THE TREND HAS BEEN

THAT WE OFTEN

SEE INVESTIGATIONS HAPPENING AND

THEY ARE TOUGH TO PROVE

WRONGDOING.

DAN:

I'M NOT SO SURE.

WE'VE GOT THESE GUYS GOING RIGHT

TO THE HEART, THE KNEE-JERK

PUBLIC REACTION OR THE MEDIA'S

APPETITE FOR DRAMA AND THE

ESCALATION OF IT.

I THINK THEY OUGHT TO BE

TRANSPARENT.

WHY WOULDN'T THE JUSTICE

DEPARTMENT THE INQUIRING WHEN

WE

HAVE SUCH A MESS ON OUR HANDS?

IT COULD GO EITHER DIRECTION.

IT COULD BE DELOITTE THAT IS

PROBLEMATIC, WHO KNOWS?

TED: TIM WHITE POINTED OUT THAT

IT SHOWS THE HEALTH AND HUMAN

SERVICES INSPECTOR GENERAL IS

INVOLVED IN ALL OF THIS.

THAT COULD HE WHERE IT BEGAN

FROM AND THEY ARE GETTING HELP

AND THAT MIGHT REMIND PEOPLE IN

THE HEAD DEPARTMENT WHICH DAN

HAS COVERED A LOT, SPENDING

YEARS SCRUTINIZING THE

PARTNERSHIP AND I DON'T WANT TO

SOUND LIKE I'M DOWNPLAYING IT

TOO MUCH, BUT WE DON'T KNOW WHAT

IT COULD LEAD TO.

DAN: IN THE MEANTIME, RHODE

ISLAND'S TOTAL THAT IS

INTERESTING.

YOU JUST POSTED A STORY, TOTAL

DEBT IS HOW BAD?

TED:

$10.5 BILLION WITHOUT

PENSIONS AND $17 BILLION WITH

PENSIONS.

UNFUNDED PENSION LIABILITIES.

IT IS DEFINITELY DRY

AND A BIT

WONKY.

IT'S 130 SOMETHING PAGES, BUT

IT'S THE FIRST DEBT

AFFORDABILITY STUDY FOR THE

STATE IN ALMOST 20 YEARS.

THE BOARD THE SET HAS -- THE

STATE HAS SET UP TO DECIDE HOW

MUCH DEBT THERE IS AND HOW MUCH

IS SUSTAINABLE.

TO ME, THE HEADLINES WERE

THERE'S A LOT OUT THERE.

SO FAR

IT LOOKS LIKE THEY HAVE

DONE A CREDIBLE JOB GATHERING

MORE DATA THAN USUAL.

THEY GOT THE LOCALS AND THE FIRE

DISTRICT AND THEY GOT THE

PENSION DATA AND HAD BOSTON

COLLEGE DO SOME NUMBERS TO

COMPARE TO OTHER STATES, AND IT

LOOKS LIKE THE STATE OF RHODE

ISLAND IS A HIGHER DEBT STATE

BUT THANKFULLY, AT THE MOMENT,

IT'S NOT UP THERE WITH THE TRUE

BASKET CASES LIKE ILLINOIS AND

CONNECTICUT.

BUT THEY DO THINK THEY SHOULD

TAKE DOWN THE DEBT TARGET.

DAN: WILL IT

IMPACT THINGS LIKE

THE STADIUM?

TED: IN THE SHORT TERM, PROBABLY

NOT.

7.5% OF ALL REVENUE

-- I THINK

IT FUELS PUBLIC SKEPTICISM.

THAT $10.5

BILLION, IT IS NOW

ACCOUNTED DEBT OF THE TAXPAYERS

AFTER EVERYTHING THAT HAS GONE

THROUGH WITH THAT.

MORE CONCERNING

, THOUGH

UNSURPRISING, THEY SAY THE

CITIES AND TOWNS THAT SHOULD NOT

BE MORE THAN 6.5% OF THEIR

REVENUE.

SO MORE THAN THREE TIMES

HIGHER.

PEOPLE FOCUS A LOT ON THE STATE

LEVEL, BUT THE STATE HAS FOUND

SOME RELIEF.

DAN M: THIS IS THE FIRST I'VE

SEEN OF THIS,

HAVING TALKED TO

TED ABOUT IT, BUT WHEN YOU LOOK

AT PROVIDENCE AND THAT IN

GENERAL, $.25 OF EVERY DOLLAR IN

THE BUDGET GOES TO RETIREES,

PENSIONS, HEALTH CARE AND THAT

THEY ARE PAYING DOWN.

DAN: THERE ARE TWO DIFFERENT

KINDS OF DEBT.

SOME DEBT HE MANAGED FOR

PROJECTS AND THE LIKE AND THEN

THERE IS THE UNFUNDED DEBT WHICH

IS LIKE CHASING YOUR TAIL.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE REAL

IT IS ALL FACTOR

IN ON ACTUARIAL

ASSUMPTIONS.

YOU WONDER IF IT IS A BOMB THAT

WILL EVENTUALLY JUST BLOW?

TED:

WHEN HE SAT DOWN TO WRITE

THE BUDGET, I THINK HE ONLY HAD

$.25 TO WORK WITH OUT OF EVERY

DOLLAR.

SO USE IT DOWN AND YOU FEEL

POWERFUL AND YOU LOOK AND SAY I

HAVE SOME WIGGLE ROOM HERE TO

DECIDE WHERE WE SHOULD

PRIORITIZE BECAUSE SO MUCH IS

SPOKEN FOR.

BUT THE LONGER IT GOES ON, THE

MORE I WONDER, IS IT GOING TO BE

A BOMB THAT EXPLODES?

I GUESS THE CITY AND SOME OTHERS

MIGHT BE IN TROUBLE.

IF THEY STAY SOMEWHAT STABLE, IT

IS AGE RAIN AND PEOPLE NOTICE IT

.

WHEN YOU DRIVE OVER A STREET

WITH HOLES, THAT'S BECAUSE THE

CITY IS SPENDING SO MUCH MONEY.

DAN: THE PLACE IS A PIGSTY.

WE DON'T MOW THE LAWN ON THE

HIGHWAY OTHER THAN ONCE A YEAR,

TRASH IS ALL OVER KINGDOM COME.

TED: I AM SO IN AGREEMENT WHEN

YOU GET ON YOUR HIGH HORSE ABOUT

THIS DAN: IT REALLY IS

DISGUSTING, AND I CAN'T BELIEVE

IT.

TED: WE BOTH LIVE IN PROVIDENCE

-- THE ROADS ARE ROUGHER.

DAN: WHEN I ANNOUNCE MY

CANDIDACY FOR GOVERNOR, IT'S

GOING TO BE ABOUT CLEANING UP

THE STREETS.

DAN M:

WE ARE GOING TO TRY TO

GET IN ON THE CAMPAIGN.

[LAUGHTER]

DAN: IT STARTS WITH NOT WEARING

A TIE.

THE --

THERE IS SO MUCH THAT IS

GREAT ABOUT RHODE ISLAND.

WE'VE GOT THE BEST TEACHES IN

AMERICA AND OUR RESTAURANTS ARE

BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE'S.

BUT THERE'S ONE THING THAT

DRIVES ALL OF US CRAZY AND WE

NEED TO FIX IT.

THAT'S THE CAR TAX.

LET'S FACE IT.

THE CAR TAX STINKS AND IT NEEDS

TO BE FIXED.

YOU DESERVE A CAR TAX CUT.

DAN: YES,

WE DO, BUT THE CAR TAX

IDEA --

THE SPEAKER WANTED TO

OWN THIS THING WHEN HE WAS IN

TROUBLE IN HIS RACE AND WANTS TO

ELIMINATE IT AND SHE WANTS TO

CUT THE VEHICLE VALUE BY 30%,

WHICH DOESN'T NECESSARILY

TRANSLATE TO A REDUCTION IN CAR

TAX.

THIS -- SHE HAS STOLEN THIS

THING FROM NICK.

DID YOU SEE THE POLLING DATA?

SHE'S GOT 70% FAVORABILITY.

TED: THE NUMBER HELPED.

I

THINK THAT IS THE CONSERVATISM

AWAY, THAT SEEMS RADICAL.

I THINK THEY USED TO

GIVE RONALD

REAGAN A LIST OF OPTIONS.

THEY KNEW HE WOULD PICK THE

MIDDLE ONE.

DAN: THAT'

THE SALES CONCEPT.

MOST PEOPLE BY THE MIDDLE ONE.

WHY CAN'T WE JUST CUT PROPERTY

IN CAR TAX FOR AND HAVE A FIXED

FORMULA

IT'S AMAZING TO

ME -- WHAT IS

IT?

IT'S MONEY.

DAN M:

30 SOME ODD MILLION

DOLLARS.

DAN: THERE WILL HAVE TO BE A

PROGRESSION IT HOLES FILLING.

YOU PAY THREE TIMES THE CAR TAX

FOR THE SAME CAR IN PROVIDENCE

AS YOU DO IN MY TOWN.

THE WHOLE THING IS

DISCOMBOBULATED.

DAN M: IT IS REGRESSIVE.

DAN: WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN?

ANYTHING?

TED:

DETHING IS

GOING TO HAPPEN.

I DON'T SEE HOW HE WALKS BACK --

THINK ABOUT IT -- THERE IS CLEAR

ROOM FOR COMPROMISE ON HER SIDE.

THE FIRST STEP AND A HALF OF HIS

PROPOSAL IS FIRST.

WHAT I AM WONDERING ABOUT IS THE

LEVEL OF STATE REVENUE HAS BEEN

TAKING DOWN, NOT UP, AND THAT'S

GOING TO MAKE ALL OF THE STUFF

HARDER.

DAN: ARE WE GOING TO GET FREE

COLLEGE TUITION?

DAN M: I THINK THERE'S A CHANCE.

DAN: YOU LOVE THAT PROGRAM.

YOU LOVE THAT PROGRAM.

DAN M: I'M NOT SURE IT WILL

PASS.

DAN: WHAT

ELSE?

DAN M: I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING

TO COMMERCIAL.

IT'S YOUR SHOW, I DON'T KNOW.

DAN: I HAVE NO TIME.

DAN: THE HERNANDEZDAN: DRAMA,

SAGA, TRAGEDY, ALL OF THAT ROGAN

DOWN AND ANALYZED.

HE KNOWS THE INSIDE ON A LOT

OF

THESE LIFE STORIES IN SPORTS.

THERE'S NO BETTER GUY TO TAKE A

LOOK AT IT.

HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND.

For more infomation >> 4/21: Local Political Roundup on State of Mind - Duration: 23:58.

-------------------------------------------

Insecurity - CS50 Live - S3E2 - Duration: 14:18.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

DAVID MALAN: This is CS50 Live.

Now, you may recall just a few weeks ago GitLab,

a popular website for hosting people's sourcecode

suffered a bit of a error, whereby they deleted a whole lot of data

from their customers.

And it turns out just a few weeks later, did another company, DigitalOcean--

this one a cloud hosting provider, whereby you can host your websites

on them in the cloud--

also made a bit of a mistake.

Indeed, they reported this.

"On April 5th 2017 we began to receive alerts

that our public services were not functioning."

They went on to say, "within three minutes of the initial alerts

we discovered that our primary database had been deleted."

The root cause of this incident, they later said,

was, "an engineering driven configuration error."

they went on, "a process performing automated testing was misconfigured

using production credentials."

Now, for more on this, and to explain this failure let's

go to a CS50's own, Doug Lloyd.

DOUG LLOYD: An engineering driven configuration.

No.

Somebody screwed up.

Somebody typed the wrong thing.

And they screwed up.

Back to you, David.

DAVID MALAN: If you'd like to dive in deeper to this particular error,

head to this URL here.

Now, speaking of failures, also in the news of late was CloudFlare.

This time a cloud based company that provides content delivery network

services, or CDN services.

It turns out that this company, which many other websites use in order

to serve up their data, static data, in particular, HTML, and the like,

had a bit of a bug, whereby they were accidentally leaking some customer's

data in other customers websites.

In particular, in some cases, which, to be fair, were rare but common enough

that researchers at Google and beyond saw this,

if certain web pages had HTML like this where the tag was not

fully closed as there at right what would happen

is this, so-called buffer overflow, whereby data actually leaked out

of their servers to the wrong customers.

So for instance, if a customer was very deliberately pulling this music website

here they might actually see, maybe later in the website, or somewhere else

in its source code, text, or specifically HTTP headers,

and other data, belonging to other customers.

Now, who might those customers be?

Well, if I'm visiting this music based website,

I might actually be seeing data from other customers who

have accounts on Uber, or OkCupid, or FitBit, or others,

which is to say, even, if I don't have an OkCupid

account, or Fitbit, or an Uber account, I

might be seeing someone else's data who actually does.

So suffice it to say, this is bad.

But its origins could be traced to a very specific line of code.

In fact, in C, on the servers that CloudFlare were running,

were these lines here.

And notice the check of two pointers, P and PE for equality.

The result of which was this, because of that overflow error

it's possible that PE could sometimes be smaller than P. And so,

simply by checking only for equals equals

was the problem, ultimately resulting.

And so had the check been done using greater than or equal to,

instead of just equal equal to, jumping over the buffer end

would have been caught.

A simple fix, and a relatively simple problem, with massive implications

for customer's privacy.

Now, in other, even scarier, news is in Brazil,

whereby bank robbers actually hijacked and robbed

a bank that was using its website in order

to provide users with transactions, and support for adding online banking.

Unfortunately, they were not particularly secure.

And these bank robbers were able to digitally take over

their entire network.

For more on this particular attack let's turn

to see us CS50's own resident security expert, and only Jeopardy champion,

CS50's own Doug Lloyd.

DOUG LLOYD: Thanks David.

As you point out, this is, in fact, a modern form of bank robbery.

What happened in this case is that customers went to visit their bank

website, or what they thought was their bank website,

but actually were visiting perfectly duplicated clones created by hackers.

And what these hackers were able to do is to hack into the domain name system

to change where the customers thought they were going.

In fact, this attack was even so secure that the hackers were

able to secure SSL certificates, which create those green locks that we

see in our URL bars, and our browsers to indicate that a site is secure.

So the customers were visiting this bank website,

thought that they were accessing something secure,

and they would type in their banking credentials,

and complete the hacker's attack.

Now, to date, the bank in question has not even

been identified because those hackers were

able to change the domain name system records,

and the bank couldn't then even email their customers as a result.

DAVID MALAN: Now, Doug, you keep mentioning domain name system records.

What are these, exactly?

DOUG LLOYD: So David, recall that the domain name system maps, commonly used

URLs that we would type into our browser bars to IP addresses.

And what the hackers were able to do here

was to convince the registrar of domain names

in Brazil to map the bank's legitimate domain

names to the hacker's IP addresses.

DAVID MALAN: Now, this all, Doug, sounds very sophisticated.

What can little customers like me do to protect our hard earned money

in banks like this?

DOUG LLOYD: That's a great question.

And I would recommend that everybody do what I do,

which is to put all of my money under my mattress.

DAVID MALAN: Thanks, Doug.

Well, now, here closer to home has been reports of fishing.

Indeed, all over campus here at Harvard are

posters like this encouraging people to report phishing,

the process whereby adversaries send you an email that might look legitimate,

but is really some form of spam, but that generally contains links,

or URLs to other websites that also look legitimate, but are,

in fact, copies of other websites, not unlike banks, whereby you can then

trick users into providing you with their usernames,

their passwords, thereby, ultimately taking over their account.

In fact, according to this very click-baity headline,

Everyone Is Falling For This Frighteningly Effective Gmail Scam.

Now, what is this?

And how is it plaguing campuses like ours?

Well, if you're a Gmail user you might recall

receiving e-mails that look like this.

And sometimes, of course, your e-mails contain attachments.

Now, Gmail draws your attention to the attachments

by providing with a very convenient downward facing icon

that when clicked allows you to download that PDF.

But what if an adversary, someone trying to deceive you,

has sent you, not an attachment, but simply an otherwise blank email that

contains an image embedded in it that looks, per this rectangle,

exactly like the rectangle that g-mail generates automatically

for actual attachments.

Moreover, what if this embedded image is really

a hyperlink to some other web page that then asks me for credentials,

like my Gmail username and password?

Now, normally this wouldn't be such a concern, because if a link like this

led to a web page on some foreign server where

I'm being tricked into typing in my credentials,

well, Harvard, or my internet service provider,

or ISP could simply block, ultimately, that website so that very few customers

actually fall for that trick.

Unfortunately, it turns out that the web supports

what are known as data URIs, whereby this particular attack was

linking not to a remote website, but to a URL that looks like this.

And notice, in particular, it starts with data colon

followed by a whole bunch of text.

Well, it turns out, you can embed in the URL bar

of a browser enough information, enough HTML, CSS, and even JavaScript,

to make the page that's displayed actually look like a Gmail log

in screen, like this one here.

And indeed, if you then type in unwittingly your username, and perhaps

even your password, and hit enter, that username and password

is sent to the bad guys website.

Not, to the actual Gmail.

Now, how does this work, and how do these URI's actually function?

Well, here's an example of an actual data URI.

And among the compelling uses of these things

is to embed images and other assets inside of web pages

without having to link the secondary files that then have to be loaded,

typically a bit more slowly.

Notice that too begins with data colon, specifying this is a data URI, or URL.

Then it specifies what the type of the file is that follows.

In this case, it's an image of type BMP, or bitmap.

And then it specifies how it's encoded, which in this case

is not binary, not decimal, not even hexadecimal, but base-64,

which is a base system that uses letters, both capital and lowercase, as

well as numbers, as well as a couple of other characters, to represent,

as text, what might otherwise just be zeros and ones, or binary.

Now, the characters that follow, while they

look like purely alphabetical, and syntactic characters

are actually the base-64 encoding of an image.

This image here.

Now, let's enhance.

And you might, indeed, see a familiar face.

That is literally the file that's embedded in that data.

And so with the bad guys did in this Gmail attack

is actually embed a functioning web page that was base-64 encoded, instead

of it being as simple as a simple happy Smiley face.

Now, thankfully, browsers like Chrome can help

us notice when websites are legitimate.

Here I'm at accounts.google.com, and it starts with HTTPS,

and Chrome is telling me, in green, that it's secure.

As a result of this attack, and others like it, has Google also

added functionality to Chrome so that if a user accidentally, or even knowingly

visits a data URI, that begins with data colon,

now are users informed, a little more clearly, in gray,

that this website is not secure.

And now it-- actually, wait, this just in.

I'm hearing from CS50's own Doug Lloyd that there's actually

a hacking attack in progress.

For more on this, let's go to our live feed of the hack in progress.

[MUSIC PLAYING]

And now, of course, no discussion of security of late

would be complete without mention of our own CIA,

or Central Intelligence Agency.

Indeed, it was recently revealed by Wikileaks.org

that the CIA has been taking advantage for some time of bugs in software

in order to wage attacks against owners of the hardware

running that software, including popular devices like Android phones, iPhones,

TVs, and more.

And in Vault 7 in particular did Wikileaks reveal the CIA hacking tools.

Specifically referring to such initiatives by the CIA,

seemingly adorable initiatives like, Wrecking Crew, Crunchy Lime Skies,

Elder Piggy, Anger Quake, or McNugget, which indeed sound delightful.

But when you actually read about what these code names mean they actually

refer to a systematic process for identifying bugs in software,

and therefore, potential exploits, writing

software that take advantage of those bugs, so as, to effectively,

hack into people's software and/or hardware.

And potentially affected are familiar tools like Skype, our own WiFi

networks, PDFs, anti-virus software.

In addition to popular devices like the very phones in our pocket.

But, all too close to home, frankly was the fact

that Samsung TVs seem to be the result, or the victim,

of some of these very exploits.

In fact, adorably, Weeping Angel was the code name

for a project that took advantage of bugs

in Samsung TV'S own software, Smart TVs software, in order

to turn on, without customers, apparently knowing,

those devices microphones so that you could theoretically listen in

on conversations, and even record them, even while giving

the appearance that the TV is off.

So the user thinks the TV is off, and he or she is talking.

But meanwhile, that TV is actually listening.

Now, you may recall it wasn't all that long ago

that the CS50 itself blew the lid off of another problem with Samsung Smart TVs,

whereby at the time, though they claimed and thought

they were actually encrypting such data, because these microphones are

present so that you can talk to your TV, and issue VoiceBase commands,

will recall that data was not actually being encrypted.

Now, what is a Smart TV in the first place?

Well, at the end of the day, our TVs are no longer just televisions.

They are actually full fledged computers with hardware and software within.

And indeed, if you have such a Smart TV, whether it's

Samsung, or something else, you may very well have icons like these on your TV,

much like a tablet, or a phone.

And that's because you can install software on TVs today.

But if you can install software you can surely install accidentally

buggy software, or unknowingly exploitative software,

that's actually doing something it's not supposed to do.

But even scarier is when our hardware has things like these things here.

Cameras and microphones that are supposed

to be used for good and not evil.

As this man here is talking to his TV and using Skype

by talking into his remote control.

That in fact is meant to be a feature.

But when these things can be turned on without our control,

and when they can be turned on even when we think they are off,

therein lies the threat and the scare.

Now, how do you know if you are among those that were affected?

And indeed, if you are suspicious that the CIA is spying on you,

how can you confirm as much?

Well, if your Samsung TV was manufactured in 2011 or 2012

this particular attack is germane.

However, to be fair, the attack requires that the CIA tiptoe into your home,

presumably, plug-in a USB stick with the software,

in order to take advantage of this bug.

But if that too is a threat, consider that the software

your smart TV must be running for this attack to work

is either version 1011, 1012, 1016.

And there have been newer versions since.

But the biggest help, perhaps, is if when you think your TV is off you

actually still see a blue LED light on in the back.

It might actually be listening, and god forbid, watching you.

For more on this particular attack and others, you can take a look at this URL

here.

That's it.

For CS50 Live, thank you so much to CS50's own Ian, and Andrew, Marinda,

Ramone, Skulli, Dan, Arturo, Christian, and of course, CS50's own, Doug Lloyd.

This was CS50.

WITH SOLVE.

IT MAKES YOU WANT TO KEEP IT

CLEAN, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE

A DAY LIKE

TODAY, RIGHT?

WILL THE WEATHER HOLD FOR

TOMORROW?

THAT'S THE BIG QUESTION.

TOMORROW MORNING, I THINK WE'LL

BE FINE.

NO.

OUT THERE RIGHT NOW, THE COASTS

ARE AT

TYPICALICALLY YOU SEE THAT WHEN

YOU HAVE A STORM SYSTEM GETTING

READY TO ROLL IN.

CHANGES ON THE WAY, BUT THIS

EVENING IS JUST GOING TO BE

GLORIOUS.

OUT THERE TONIGHT, MAKE SURE YOU

GET OUT AND ENJOY

IT, BEFORE IT

ALL STARTS TO SWITCH GEARS AS WE

HEAD TO THE WEEKEND.

A LIVE PICTURE FROM --

NO.

A TIME-LAPSE FROM HURRY CASINO

CAMERA FROM LINCOLN CITY.

YOU CAN SEE

THE BLUE SKY AND THE

FOLKS THAT HAVE BEEN ENJOYING

THIS BEAUTIFUL WEATHER OUT ALONG

THE COASTLINE.

GORGEOUS IN THE GORGE.

THE

LODGE, NOT A CLOUD IN THE

SKY.

THAT IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE

THE TREND FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT

COUPLE OF HOURS BEFORE WE START

TO SEE CHANGES ROLL ON.

MOUNT

ST. HELENS LOOKING GREAT.

IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE'VE

BEEN ABLE TO HAVE A FULL DAY'S

VIEW OF ALL THE

MOUNTAINS AND

VOLCANOS.

69 DEGREES.

EAST WINDS, 12 MILES AN HOUR.

IT FEELS

JUST DELIGHTFUL.

AND THE SUNSHINE.

AND THE WARMEST PLACE RIGHT NOW,

YOU HEAD NORTH OF PORTLAND AND

WE'RE INTO

AND LOOK AT WHERE WE ARE RIGHT

NOW IN

ASTORIA.

69, 69 IN LINCOLN CITY.

NEWPORT JUST JUMPED UP TO

72.

SO IT IS JUST FEELING SO NICE,

ALL AROUND THE AREA.

THIS EVENING, IF YOU DO HAVE

PLANS, KEEP IN

MIND, SKIES ARE

STILL FAIRLY CLEAR.

ANY CLOUD COVER MOVING IN IS

THIN, SO IT WON'T TEND TO HOLD

IN A LOT OF

THE HEAT FROM THE

DAY.

7 P.M., BEFORE SUNSET.

SUN DOESN'T SET UNTIL 8:04.

WE'RE IN THE UPPER 50'S BY 11

P.M.

ONCE THE SUN GOES DOWN, IT WILL

START TO FEEL CHILLY BUT

IT

WON'T BE AS CHILLY AS LAST

LAST NIGHT, MANY OF US IN THE

UPPER

30'S, LOW 40'S.

TONIGHT, MOST OF US DIPPING DOWN

ONLY INTO THE LOW'S

AND UPPER --

LOW 50'S AND UPPER 40'S.

CLOUD COVER TRYING TO CREEP ON

IT.

IT

WILL CONTINUE TO DO THAT.

NEXT SYSTEM LURKING UP OUR

COASTLINE IS NOT HARD TO SEE.

THE LOW IS

ACTUALLY BACK HERE.

WE WILL HAVE A FRONT PUSHING

THROUGH.

AND THAT IS GOING TO BRING IN

SOME RAIN.

SO THIS

EVENING, NO RAIN.

GORGEOUS FOR YOUR FRIDAY NIGHT

PLANS.

SATURDAY MORNING, HERE COMES

NOW, SATURDAY DOESN'T LOOK AS

BAD AS THE REST OF THE WEEK, SO

YOU

CAN'T -- IF YOU CAN'T ENJOY

THE DAY, GET OUT AND ABOUT

IT DOES GO

DOWNHILL QUICKLY.

WHY CAN'T WE JUST TAKE TWO OR

THREE DAYS TOGETHER?

I KNOW!

WHY CAN'T WE HAVE A FOUR-DAY

STRETCH OF 80'S?

THAT IS A PIPE DREAM RIGHT

Amazon is Changing it's Email Policy - Duration: 5:22.

Hello everyone, here's Ted with OAXRAY and today we're going to talk about Amazon's

new e-mail policy and how it affects you.

So, what we're looking at right now is Amazon's actual policy on their e-mail.

And there's one small change if we scroll here at the bottom and it says here „Can

buyers opt out messages from sellers?"

And the answer now is actually yes.

If a buyer calls in, they can now opt out on unsolicited e-mails from you.

So, before when a seller purchased your item you can actually send them out a feedback

request, you can send them out a review request for an item.

So, you sell a brand new item and you wanna get a review for that item, then you can send

them a request saying „hey, do you like the product, can you leave a review?" or

you can say something like „your item should be delivered today, I just wanna make sure

everything is OK with your order, if everything is, please leave me a feedback" or whatever

the many different cases are that you could send somebody an e-mail for the product.

But now, Amazon is allowing people to actually opt out those e-mails.

So, if you have an automatic e-mail responder set up, now you might getting e-mails back

from Amazon and those e-mails might say „do not e-mail this person anymore".

Right now the e-mail does not have a system set up so that e-mail service like FeedbackFive

or one of the e-mail services know ahead of time don't send e-mails to these people.

So, everyone gets an e-mail until those e-mails are updated in their system, and then when

they are, they are gonna stop sending those e-mails.

I've seen a few actual companies say that they are adding a global blacklist system where

once someone gets blacklisted and they know that they are not supposed to get those e-mails

then they put them essentially on a blacklist so that no one ever gets that e-mail again.

And no one accidentally sends's them an e-mail.

So, as time goes you're gonna see less and less of those automatic e-mail responders

getting a kick back to each person because everybody is gonna be on the list eventually.

But for right now Amazon is blocking those e-mails automatically, and what actually happens

if customer contact you because they have a problem, and you actually click respond

to their contact, then the e-mail will go trough to them.

But if you simply shooting a message and it's just to get a review or something like that,

then they are not gonna see it.

So whenever is time for you to send them a message, and it's critical to the order,

make sure whenever you go trough the manage orders, and you actually select whatever the

case is about, whatever you are sending them that e-mail.

Because if you just select „it's a review request" during a dropdown then they're

not gonna actually see that e-mail.

Now, people have reported a few items have been kickbacks to them even thou, it saw a

legitimate question or an order update that they are gonna send but I've just heard

a few people talk about this, most people have just talked about the e-mail that they

got from Amazon because in that e-mail they say if you continuously keep trying to spam

people even thou, they said that they are off of the e-mail list you might be risking

your Amazon account.

So far, all of the different services that send off the emails have updated their system

it seems and they have put out plans for how to deal with and how to remove people who

should not be getting these e-mails from the system.

So, I know Seller Lab has made an actual announcement about this and they actually made a video

specifically about how to deal with their service.

So, if you are using an automatic service that sends out these e-mails, check on their

websites, and see if they made a statement about this, because it might be something

that you need to do, so that if you have an automatic e-mail campaign you don't end

up sending multiple e-mails to the same person who is opted out, and getting yourself in

trouble.

So, make sure that you understand that if you're getting this e-mail from the same

person multiple times that might be a problem with their e-mail service, make sure that

they are now complaining about this new rule that you are not supposed to keep sending

people who have opted out, opted out according to this new policy, they are not sending them

e-mails multiple times and just be aware that over time more and more people are gonna be

added to this list.

Right now the only way to opt out is to call but I'm sure that in the future they're

gonna add one click opt-out.

So that people will be able to easily and quickly click a button and they are not going

to get your e-mails unless it's important to the situation.

Thank you guys very much, have a great day and make some money using OAXRAY.

[TMT][365] Giới thiệu sản phẩm Laser Blade thuộc dòng Tamashii Lab! Space Sheriff Gavan! (Engsub) - Duration: 3:26.

Welcome back to TokuVN Media Team!

Today we will introduce our new toy from Tamashii Lab...

Gavan Laser Blade!

Tamashii Lab, most of them are high-tech weapon in original size.

The first Tamashii Lab's product is Raygun Super Gun of Ultraman series,

Gavan Laser Blade is the second.

Gavan also have a new another sword that'll be debuted in V-Cinema Gavan vs. Dekaranger - Gavan Laser Origin.

It's also produced in Tamashii Lab, however, you can only buy it with combo Bluray of this new V-Cinema.

The box is image of Gavan with the text...

"Space Sheriff Gavan - Laser Blade from Tamashii Lab"

On the left corner is Gavan's logo with product name in Japanese.

On the top are functions of this product.

Attached with this toy is Laser Blade Special book,

include some informations of Laser Blade and Gavan through times.

Beside it, we also have the signature of Kenji Ohba - actor of Gavan.

Gavan Laser Blade was built in 1:1,

Hilt sword was painted alchemy,

The Blade was made of opaque plastic, and the guard was made of die-cast.

We also have Gavan's hand-bases.

Gavan Laser Blade have switch with 2 mode:

sound effects with Gavan's voices and sound effects only.

On the grip we have 2 buttons: BGMs and effects

Whatever modes we still have 3 these BGMs.

Gavan TV Opening songs,

Battle bgm,

sound when end.

In sound effects button, in without voice actor mode, we only have 3 sword effects.

In voice actor mode, after 3 sword effects, we will have 1 of 4 shouts of Gavan.

these 4 shouts will be random.

The blade is attached with 20 LEDs and sensor function to do final attack.

Actually, we have a small sensor eye in guard that we can touch to light the blade.

So as we see, that was awesome for this Sword in both outlook and its functions.

However, because there are 20 LED inside this blade, so if 1 of them are broken, it look very unsightly.

And its sounds are still small because battery power has focused almost on light.

And that's all wehave discuss about Gavan Laser Blade.

Thank you for watching and see you later!

The French Election: Donald Trump vs. Barack Obama | Hardball | MSNBC - Duration: 5:03.

>>> WELCOME BACK TO "HARDBALL." PRESIDENT TRUMP TWEETED EARLIER

THIS MORNING ABOUT SUNDAY'S FRENCH ELECTION.

THAT'S THISHIS SUNDAY, AFTER YESTERDAY'S ATTACK IN PARIS,

WHICH ISIS CLAIMED CREDIT FOR. PRESIDENT TRUMP HAD THIS TO SAY.

ANOTHER TERRORIST ATTACK IN PARIS.

THE PEOPLE OF FRANCE WILL NOT TAKE MUCH MORE OF THIS.

WE'LL HAVE A BIG EVERYTHING ON PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

HE ELABORATED DURING AN INTERVIEW WITH THE ASSOCIATED

PRESS SAYING THE ATTACK WILL HELP CANDIDATE MARINE LE PEN.

ACCORDING TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS, THE PRESIDENT SAID HE

WASN'T ENDORSING LE PEN, BUT HE SAID SHE'S THE STRONGEST ON

BORDERS AND SHE'S THE STRONGEST ON WHAT'S BEEN GOING ON IN

FRANCE. WHOEVER IS THE TOUGHEST ON

RADICAL ISLAMIC TRIM, WHOEVER IS THE TOUGHEST AT THE BORDER WILL

DO BEST. WHY IS THE PRESIDENT INSERTING

HIMSELF INTO THE CAMPAIGN?

JEAN BERNARD, I WANT YOU FIRST, BECAUSE YOU ARE FRENCH.

>> THANK YOU. >> IS THIS A PARALLEL ELECTION

TO OUR OWN FROM LAST YEAR? IS THIS A BATTLE BETWEEN THE FAR

RIGHT CANDIDATE, MARINE LE PEN, WHO OPPOSES A LOT OF THIS

IMMIGRATION OVER THERE, BASICALLY BLAMES IT ON THE

MUSLIM COMMUNITY, THE TERRORISM, AND AGAIN A MORE MODERATE

CANDIDATE AGAINST HER? >> IT'S SOMETHING THAT COULD BE

FOR THE SECOND ROUND, FOR THE RUNOFF TWO WEEKS FROM NOW.

DEPENDING ON WHAT HAPPENS ON SUNDAY, IT'S THE SAME WAVE THAT

PUSHED PRESIDENT TRUMP HERE, THAT PUSHED BREXIT IN BRITAIN,

THAT IS PUSHING MARINE LE PEN. THAT'S FOR SURE.

ANTI-IMMIGRANT, ANTI-GLOBALIZATION, NATIONALISM.

THAT'S FOR SURE. >> IS IT STRONG ENOUGH TO WIN?

TRUMP WON. AT LEAST HE WON IN OUR ELECTORAL

COLLEGE. >> IT COULD BE STRONG ENOUGH TO

WIN ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WE HAD AN ATTACK TWO DAYS BEFORE THE FIRST

RUN. THIS DEFINITELY COULD HELP

MARINE LE PEN BEING ELECTED. WHY?

BECAUSE IT COULD PUSH HER, BECAUSE SHE'S THE STRONGEST ON

BORDERS. SHE'S THE MOST ANTI-MUSLIM.

IT COULD HELP FRANCOIS FILLON. FILLON IS THE CONSERVATIVE GUY.

HE'S NOT THAT BAD. HE'S LIKE SARKOZY, BUT THEY

COULD BE TOGETHER FOR THE SECOND ROUND.

AND IN THIS CASE, ACCORDING TO ALL THE POLLS, HE IS THE WEAKEST

AGAINST MARINE LE PEN. SO THIS ATTACK COULD IN TWO

WEEKS FROM NOW HELP HER. >> SO RIGHT AGAINST FAR RIGHT,

FAR RIGHT WINS? >> FAR RIGHT COULD WIN OR RIGHT.

OR ACCORDING TO THE POLLS BEFORE THE ATTACK, CENTER.

THE SURPRISE, THIS YOUNG GUY, EMMANUEL MACRON, WHO IS TOTALLY

UNTESTED.

>> WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT TRUMP GETTING INVOLVED?

I'M GOING TO SAY AT THE END OF THIS SHOW, I'VE ALWAYS RESPECTED

THE FRENCH BECAUSE WHEN THE BRITISH ARE WITH YOU, YOU SAY

HO-HUM, BUT WHEN THE FRENCH ARE WITH US, THEN YOU KNOW YOU'RE

RIGHT. THE FIRST GULF WAR, THEY WERE

WITH US ALL THE WAY. THEY WERE WITH US WHEN WE HAD

MISSILES ON CUBA. IT ALWAYS SEEMS TO BE A CHECK.

THEY'RE NOT EASY TO DEAL WITH ALL THE TIME, BUT WHEN THEY

AGREE WITH YOU, YOU'RE RIGHT. THAT'S MY THINKING.

I'VE GOT A FRENCH GUY HERE. >> WHO IS AGREEING WITH YOU.

LOOK, I THINK IT'S ALWAYS DICEY WHEN AN AMERICAN PRESIDENT

INSERTS HIMSELF INTO ANOTHER COUNTRY'S ELECTION, ANOTHER

COUNTRY'S REFERENDUM. AS WE SAW WITH PRESIDENT OBAMA

WHEN HE INSERTED HIMSELF INTO THE BREXIT CONVERSATION JUST

BEFORE -- >> IT DIDN'T HELP.

>> NO, IT DIDN'T HELP, BUT ALSO HE WAS CRITICIZED FOR THAT

ALTHOUGH HE WAS CRITICIZED FOR EVERYTHING THAT HE DID ON THE

INTERNATIONAL STAGE. BUT WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP, WITH

HIS TWEETS, HE CAN DO THE WINK AND NOD IF HE WANTS TO.

OH, I DIDN'T ENDORSE MARINE LE PEN.

BUT HE SAID, AS YOU READ, SHE IS THE STRONGEST ON BORDERS.

SHE'S THE STRONGEST ON IMMIGRATION.

>> HE ENDORSED HER. ANYWAY, DONALD TRUMP IS NOT THE

ONLY AMERICAN PRESIDENT BECAUSE FORMER PRESIDENT OBAMA TALKED ON

THE PHONE TO CENTRIST CANDIDATE EMMANUEL MACRON YESTERDAY.

THE PRESIDENT'S SPOKESMAN SAID THE CALL WASN'T AN ENDORSEMENT.

QUOTE, PRESIDENT OBAMA APPRECIATED THE OPPORTUNITY TO

HEAR FROM MACRON ABOUT HIS CAMPAIGN AND THE IMPORTANT

UPCOMING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION IN FRANCE.

A COUNTRYNTRY THAT PRESIDENT OB REMAINS DEEPLY COMMITTED TO AS A

CLOSE ALLY OF THE UNITED STATES. AND AS A LEADER ON BEHALF OF

LIBERAL VALUES IN EUROPE AND AROUND THE WORLD.

SO WE KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS. BARACK OBAMA, BY OUR POLITICS,

IS SOMEWHAT CENTER LEFT. HE'S NOT HARD LEFT BY ANY MEANS.

HE'S CENTER LEFT, AND HE'S ENDORSING A CANDIDATE WHO YOU

SAY IS CENTRIST. >> AND OBAMA, STILL, HE'S

EXTREMELY POPULAR IN FRANCE. PROBABLY OVER 120, HIS APPROVAL

RATING. HE'S STILL VERY POPULAR.

THIS COULD HAVE A BIG IMPACT ON ALL OF THESE UNDECIDED PEOPLE

WHO DIDN'T KNOW EXACTLY WHERE TO GO.

AND THERE ARE A LOT OF UNDECIDED.

THAT'S WHY WE'RE SO UNCERTAIN ABOUT THIS ELECTION.

>> YOU'VE HAD SOME GREAT PRESIDENTS.

DE GAULLE. AND MITTERAND.

SOCIALISTS DON'T LIKE

Ballerina Rant: Give Credit When You Repost On Social Media!! - Duration: 5:16.

Hey everybody!

You're watching Ballerina Badass

my name is Georgia Reed

and today I just wanted to do a quick

Yak-Out

Yak-a-thon?

Rant! Just a quick rant, ok?

So we're ranting.

That's why it's called "Ballerina Rant."

A new Ballerina Rant!

'Rina Rant!

Okay.

Reposting people's stuff without asking permission.

[raspberry]

What the hell you guys?

Okay.

I think it was So Bailarinos

who had come under major fire on social media

for posting all kinds of dancer content

without asking permission

and a lot of really famous dancers

were getting super upset about that

I don't know what happened with that situation

but I've had a couple of times where

people have reposted my content without asking my permission

without even tagging me in it

The best are the foot fetish people who do it

They just go and repost my bunion photos

I don't get it, you guys!

I don't know why people are so excited about the bunion thing

but to each their own, God bless, go and

do what you gotta do

however, don't do it without asking my permission

and just reposting my stuff.

You know, if it was Taylor Swift

she'd be like BWAAAAA

How the hell would I know what Taylor Swift's doing

I don't listen to her stuff.

[elevator music]

I'll use people I like as an example:

I don't know how Prince or David Bowie would feel about it

but I can't imagine them being super okay with it.

Watch: someone on here is going to put down

a comment with a link to something where

David Bowie or Prince said

"It's fine if people repost my stuff, I don't care."

You know what, though? I DO care.

I think that people out there

should take the time to be respectful of

the creator of the content

You know, I made a mistake recently

once, I'll tell you this.

I was posting photos

for that competition I was doing back in January.

and one of the people who was creating the event

- the competition -

and marketing it

she sent me some photos of other dancers

and said, "Hey, would you create

"some cool designs with this

"and post them on your Instagram?"

just to help promote the competition.

And I said, "Sure, but I need to know:

"do you have permission to repost all of these photos?"

and she said yes.

She did get permission.

Now, I think she really did ask the dancers

and the dancers all said, "Yeah,

"you have permission."

But the problem is, the dancers themselves

did not ask their respective photographers

if they had permission.

And one of the dancers,

whose name will not be mentioned here,

but I know exactly who I'm talking about

she got her photographs done

with the NYC Dance Project.

This is a major photographer.

They've got a book out!

It's beautiful work - trust me, you see it,

you know it.

So, apparently she had given permission

to the competition to use this photo

but when I reposted it on Instagram,

and I tagged NYC Dance Project

in the photo, specifically

And they wrote to me and said

"Hey. We did not give permission to you

to share this photo."

And I immediately wrote back

and said, "I am SO sorry,

"they told me that they did have permission."

and they said, "no, they do NOT have permission."

And I took it down immediately.

And I wrote them a really nice note

saying "I'm so sorry,

"I really love your work, I so respect it."

I want to shoot with them someday, you guys!

Oh my god

it's an amazing opportunity

BLAH!

So, first and foremost:

you want to share some videos

or photos of other people

on your site?

Number one, ask the person first, okay?

Number two,

let them know you're going to tag them and

make sure that you give them props,

or whatever, and say Hey, OMG, look at this amazing person,

use the repost apps, whatever you gotta do

so you're, you know, being respectful

and using at least a modicum of

legality, or whatever you want to call it.

And then,

Number three,

just --

what's number three?

Just be mindful about this stuff, you guys!

C'mon.

I just want to give a shout-out to

this amazing artist

"Pointe Brush"

on Instagram

She paints gorgeous, gorgeous stuff

and in all of her photos, she says

"Hey, feel free to repost my stuff,

"just be sure to tag me."

And still, people will repost her stuff without tagging.

So rude.

So wrong.

So, yeah.

Anyone out there thinking about reposting stuff,

Tag that!

Tag it!

I wanna swear!

I wanna curse so much!

but swearing is bad.

[laughs]

It's not bad,

whatever - it's AWESOME!

Let's admit it!

Swearing is awesome!

[elevator music]

So, yeah. That's my rant for today.

Be respectful of your fellow artists.

And get out there

and make your own art, for godsake

and if you're going to repost, give respect

okay?

I think it's great that we all

support each other as a community

We Are A Tribe.

But we gotta do it with respect.

Alright, that's it for today!

You've been watching Ballerina Badass,

my name is Georgia Reed,

Never Give Up, Never Stop Dancing

I love you all!

[kiss kiss kiss] Toi toi toi!
