Scottish Adventures - Duration: 13:34.

We got stuck here for a long time, I think.

And this place here on the back looks so romantic covered with snow.

It's hot here, guys, comparing with Kiev and Chisinau.

I saw the deers!!!

They are so cool. First I thought that these were goats on the fields, but when I saw corns I understood that they are deers.

Here there is a terrible smell of sheep cheese.

Yes, the smell is so strong.

First they brought a dirty cup to me. Stan asked them to change it and they brought another cup but it was again dirty.

It is not even the snow. These are hailstones.

Small hailstones.

The cafe, where we ate works from 10AM till 4 PM. The cottage, where we stay has check in at 4 PM and check out at 10 AM.

I think they have an agreement. All of them.

Hello!!

We are somewhere in this zone.

Here nearby there is the famous Glenfinnan Viaduct. It was filmed in Harry Potter movies.

We go there now but the weather is not very nice for flying a drone.

I'm proud of myself. I've just pushed the car and only because of my help we could exit the parking space.

I feel myself so strong.

Stan again pushed a car (of some other people). But it seems that our car will need to be pushed as well when we go back.

I didn't manage to look if our tires are for summer or for winter. It seems to me that they are summer ones.

This bridge is reeling!

We are going out of the parking lot and hope we'll not have to.... ahaha... we got stucked...

Cool=))

If you are afraid of rear-weel drive, you think that it is not safe etc.

This lifehack for you: if you go backwards, the car will become front-weel drive car.

So if you got stuck somewhere, try to go backwards and may be it will help.

Those snowy mountains is Isle of Skye. But here, on this side there is no snow.

I like this right lane.

Let me show you the place, where we eat.

Look, everything is with cats. Here they love cats a lot.

We hate this thing. Stan once tasted it and it was terrible.

Here we are.

Going to the car. There will be bulls on our roads. They are not bulls, but cows, but looking as threateningly as bulls.

Some guys on a cool car stoped to help us.

Look at this terribly expensive internet.

How much is for an hour?

4 pounds for an hour, 10 pounds for a day.

BTW, there is a car over there. I wonder if it's masters are still alive. May be they were taken by the winds.

We are approaching our house for two nights.

Is this our house? Did she say that it will be open?

We even have coloring book and pencils. Wow!

It will be the best part of the Vlog=))

The Automatic Bartender in Action- Barbot Part 3! - Duration: 8:16.

So looks like it is ready to go. There is only one thing left

I am going to take it out and let people try it and see what they think.

I just saw the coins on the bar table.

Just hold that for a second, take a look at this button, this is an emergency cut-off button.

What kind of coin is this?

I will tell you about it later but for now you should take a look at the kill switch.

Once you press the button, everything stops.

There is a On/Off switch that controls the power supply at the back.

Can you see from this angle?

Yes, I can.

And this box is for coins.

Can you put real money in it?

Now I will reach to the back and turn the switch back on again.

Because we pressed the emergency stop button, we have to turn it back on too.

It is just like a computer, if you want to reboot this thing.

You just follow the arrow on the button and then turn it once, it will restart.

Also it will always return home first, so it will go all the way back to the right until it hits the end stop.

So can it work now?

Yes, you can use it without a coin for the moment, because I put in the key.

I see, because the owner is in control of the key.

Right, this key is for you, when the key is at the left position, try press the 0 button.

Now it will pour a drink for you.

Cool!

Sorry, I didn't put the cup in the ring.

Hurry up, put it right back on the ring, it is going to drip on the bar mat.

Now the water is coming out.

So cool!

I already set the delay time in the code, so it doesn't dispense the full shot.

Due to the time interval, it can only dispense 25ml each time.

According to the drink menu, the first one is a Screwdriver.

Why don't you have a look at the menu first?

Hey beautiful, can you hand me my menu?

Go help her to find the menu.

And now it is pouring the orange juice.

Look, this machine is on our TV display.

Am I right, older sister?

Yes, little sister. Why don't you try to put a coin in and see what happens?

Insert a coin and then press 0.

Since we turned the key to the right now it is locked. It won't work unless you put a coin in, and now it is pouring vodka.

I can see the label behind the bottles, vodka, whiskey etc.

This is aluminum extrusion, in case something happens, I bought you extra components to change.

These are screws and the parts for the feet, let me open it and show you how to put them together.

Susie, come here. You should watch and learn.

This is the screw for the machine.

I saw more screws over there.

Where are you going? The one you took away from me is the right kind of screws.

Really?

Yes, this is the standard screws for this machine.

You see, there are two sides on the t-nut, on one side is convex and the other side is concave.

Screw it down from the convex side.

Use the allen key to put the screw in the nut.

I am very nervous.

Don't worry, you are a smart cookie.

What is it used for?

For holding up the aluminum there.

Remember don't screw it all the way in.

The reason is you have to leave the nut out in order to put it into the aluminum first.

I see, first you have to put the nut in.

Yes, and once you put the nut in you can screw it tight now.

I see.

And remember you have to put it horizontally, so that it will lock in place.

Remember to thoroughly clean the bottles and dispensers every night before you go home.

Can we drink the liquid in the bottle?

Sure, it is just water. Maybe we should put in the real stuff now.

That's it. You only need to turn it once, little sister, go to the side and see what has changed on the box.

Cany you see the latch sticking up from the box?

Yes

Then it is not correct.

Hey, Naomi, your drink is here.

Ok, thanks.

The latch is down.

Ok then you can take the coin box out.

See, this is how it works.

One, two, three, pull.

The menu is right here.

What do you recommend?

I don't know my favourite drink on the menu is a Screwdriver.

Pick one for the team.

Naomi, I am leaving.

Ok, have a nice evening sweetie. See you soon.

Where do I put my glass? Where do I put it?

You put it there. I can help, just press a button to choose a drink first.

This BarBot will take all the people's job. Look at how efficient it is.

Oh, you are making people lose their job.

I hope so.

Then people have more free time to do what they like.

Yeah, but the bartender would be like "What should we do now?"

No, they would be living somewhere like a utopian world, where things are not rare anymore

which means post-scarcity, and you will think about other stuff in your life.

Cheers!

AGM-500 pištoljski rukohvat za Mossberg 500 opis - Duration: 7:28.

As you can see, this is the pump action shotgun, Mossberg 500 shotgun.

It's very interesting to shoot the pump action shotgun

And this comes with polymer or with wooden parts,

but this way in this configuration with a stock and Handguard.

There are numerous add-ons for the Mossberg 500 at the market

so you can customize this shotgun to your needs.

In this episode, we will present you a pistol grip,

Without the stock.

Let's see how it works only with a pistol grip.

Here's what Mossberg 500 looks like without a stock and only with polymer pistol grip.

If you like this configuration, you can order this pistol grip

through the Israeli store www.zfi-inc.com.

or through the link in the description of our video and in first comment.

Let's see how it behaves.

No more ammo.

In any case, very interesting.

It's inconvenient a little while you get used to it without a stock, to shoot like this.

But for some situations such as self-defense, it is very convenient for manipulation.

It's nice, it's very ergonomic, it's very nice in my hand, with a left--handed shooter like me

but also with the right-handed shooter.

Everything is great. Without any gaps.

Everything is tight in place, great.

As I already mentioned, if you want to put a pistol grip on the Mossberg 500

That pistol grip looks like this.

In the package, you get this grip

which you can order from the Israeli store www.zfi-inc.com.

This is the FAB Defense product for the Mossberg 500 series.

In the package you get this pistol grip,

You get this plug-in for this section that we'll demonstrate later.

And in the grip itself

you get the screw you need to screw the grip on the Mossberg's receiver.

As I say if you want to buy such a product, you can do this via www.zfi-inc.com.

In any case, links to this product can be found in the description of this video clip and pinned comment.

So let's start with the assembly. First of all we have to do, of course, we have to have appropriate tools.

And that's a phillips screwdriver,

13 socket wrench with adapters that must enter here in the stock.

And of course Allen key.

The first thing we do is unscrew this butt pad.

Once thats out the way, you have here this hole on the stock, there is a screw inside.

Or you can use a long screwdriver to unscrew it,

and since it is 13 you can unscrew it and this socket wrench.

To the end.

Then, you simply take off that stock.

Be careful not to lose the screw.

Here's the screw.

Put everything aside. And now put a pistol grip on.

First we have to do with this auxiliary key that you get in the package.

Remove this screw.

Here's what it looks like.

Then you need this screw that comes in the package with this grip, which is here.

.

Put it like this in place.

.

Then the allen key is required.

This is number 5.

It needs a bigger, so we need number 6.

And we simply screw it on.

To the end.

And we're returning this screw.

And then Mossberg looks like this.

Very interesting! Lets shoot

As you can see this AGM 500 grip is a very nice thing for this shotgun.

In any case, you shorten the shotgun and if you need a shorter shotgun for any reason

I recommend this polymer grip AGM 500.

Like I already said this polymer grip as well as other parts for Mossberg shotguns

you can find in the Israeli online store www.zfi-inc.com

Or through the link in the description of this video you can directly order this grip.

It comes to our adress without any problems, so if you think you need something like this

my sincere recommendation.

In the next episode we will transforme this Mossberg 500

into a tactical machine, you'll see.

That would be all in our today's episode.

Star Wars Rebels Season 4 - Jedi Night & Dume Episode Reviews - Duration: 9:12.

We are now in the final three weeks of Star Wars Rebels.

The latest two episodes, Jedi Night and Dume, came out last night, and it was some of the

best storytelling the show has done in its four seasons.

So let's talk about it.

Last December Hera led an X-wing squadron in an attack against Lothal's TIE Defender

factory.

The mission ended in death, disaster, and Hera's capture.

It's no surprise that this episode is all about rescuing her.

Kanan requests that Ezra take command of the rescue because his feelings could get in the

way.

It's a nice moment that shows how much Ezra has grown.

He's not just Kanan's apprentice anymore.

He commands trust and respect from those around him.

We'll come back to that in the next episode.

But for now, the Rebels build some gliders so they can fly into Lothal undetected.

Sabine makes note that the Empire is ready to counter sophisticated technology, which

I think could be taken as a jab at the Empire's future failure against the Ewoks.

Thrawn had a really great presence this episode.

He is involved in the questioning of Hera, and he deduces that she had a brother that

died young, which is interesting, and I'll touch on that in the next episode as well.

Thrawn leaves Pryce in charge of the questioning, and she serves as the real villain.

If you read the Thrawn book last year, this is like a perfect continuation for her.

She was ruthless in that book, and it served her well, so she continues to up the ante

when she gets more power.

Thrawn is called to make his case for the TIE Defender budget, because Krennic wants

more funds for the Death Star.

I like how Tarkin complained about the Death Star, but we know he is more than willing

to take control of it once it's complete.

I wonder if he would have done the same to Thrawn had the TIE Defender been allowed

to continue.

Kanan, Ezra and Sabine are able to sneak into the base and split up.

Kanan saves Hera and her calicori, but not before Hera is injected with truth serum.

High Hera was entertaining.

Both episodes put Hera in mental states that we just haven't gotten from her before,

and it was good to see.

Their banter during their escape was fun and funny and touching, and just the right amount

of frustrating where you know they're gonna say what they want to eventually.

But the Empire is hot on their heels the whole time.

Rukh was actually pretty great.

He was keeping up with Kanan, and then he straight up bests him in combat, and probably

would have killed him if the Force weren't involved.

I've been pretty impressed with how Rebels has handled his character.

He is like the opposite of the Death Troopers, who showed up again in this episode and again

did nothing.

I love the idea of the Death Trooper.

I felt like they were deadly enough in Rogue One.

But every time they show up in Rebels they might as well be normal stormtroopers.

This time they were all taken out by a blind Jedi and a drunk, recently tortured escapee.

I wish Death Troopers should make us afraid for the characters, but they might as well

be a joke in the show.

Anyway, griping aside, Hera and Kanan head to the fuel depot for a pickup from Ezra and

Sabine.

Hera sobers up and tells Kanan that she loves him, and everything is going pretty well,

so you just know something awful is about to happen.

Governor Pryce so desperately wants a victory that she opens fire on the fuel depot, and

it all starts to explode.

Kanan uses the Force to keep the explosion at bay and save his friends before being consumed

in one of the most visually stunning moments from the show.

It was gorgeous and powerful.

Having Kanan's eyes come back right at the end was chilling.

I've been calling for Kanan's death since the first episode of this show.

I've considered it to be inevitable.

We just can't have Jedi running around while Luke is part of the Rebellion and in desperate

need of a teacher.

We still need to make sure Ezra exits the story of the Rebel Alliance in a satisfying

way, but let's focus on Kanan.

I kind of get the impression he knew this was going to happen.

We don't know exactly what was happening with his interactions with the loth-wolves,

but he was acting a little different the whole episode.

Giving Ezra words of comfort.

Making sure to give Sabine and Ezra a goodbye as they parted ways.

He even guides Hera specifically to the fuel depot.

Maybe I was just reading into it because I was expecting it myself, I just think he got

a glimpse of his destiny and he was ready.

Rey's words to Leia about Luke fit pretty well here, actually.

He seemed to have a sense of peace and purpose.

As a padawan he struggled to find his place in the Clone Wars.

After Order 66 he was a Jedi without an identity.

He became a drunk, and he was lost until he met Hera.

We know how important Hera will continue to be to the Rebellion and the liberation of

the galaxy.

So I think it was the will of the Force that she be saved, but I also think he would have

saved her without a thought, no matter what the Force wanted.

I feel like I'll be unpacking the character arc of Caleb Dume for a while.

But I don't want to keep you all day, so let's move onto the second episode, Dume.

The destruction of the fuel depot means that TIE Defender production is at a complete standstill.

Pryce's tunnel vision inadvertently meant the Rebel mission to Lothal was a success

after all, which is why I think Kanan knew where to go and what would happen when he

got there.

Like I mentioned before, the Thrawn book sets up Pryce's failure here so well.

She will do pretty much anything to achieve her goals and hide her own inadequacies, and

Thrawn knows this.

So his scene with her was great.

He was so perfectly menacing.

I cannot wait for Thrawn Alliances this summer.

Thrawn on screen is fun, but Thrawn in a book is where he belongs.

He can take the gloves off.

And I hope we see how he deals with Pryce right at the beginning of that book.

Seeing the Rebels react to Kanan's death was tough.

It was harder for me to watch that than his actual death.

Seeing Zeb hug Ezra made me emotional.

These are the two characters that have been at each other's throats since the show began,

albeit in a brotherly way.

Any time they show affection for each other, I can't stand it.

And then Chopper had to go hold Hera's hand.

That whole scene was heartbreaking.

Hera was in another new mental state for most of this episode, and it was painful to watch.

I feel like we're pretty much used to seeing Kanan or Ezra or pretty much any other character

struggle.

But not Hera.

I don't like seeing her broken.

It's like when you're young and you see your parents cry for the first time.

It's unsettling.

I'm glad the aired this episode alongside Jedi Night.

Because it was kind of a bridge to what comes next.

Everyone gets a chance to mourn in their own way, and prepare themselves for the future.

Hera added Kanan to her calicori as a part of her family.

Ezra went on a spirit journey with the loth-wolves.

And Sabine and Zeb beat up Rukh.

To jump back to the mention of Hera's dead brother, I don't know that revelation was

important, other than as a reminder to the purpose of the calicori.

That it is a symbol of family, and that Kanan's inclusion on it is very significant.

I was really into Sabine and Zeb's story.

Killing off Kanan immediately raised the stakes of the show.

I was concerned that Zeb was going to be killed be Rukh.

The heroes are no longer invincible.

That's a good thing.

And their story was dark.

They were acting like terrorists.

Their fight with Rukh was good, and I'm glad it wasn't easy for them to pin him

down.

I thought we were going to go really dark with Zeb, but then Sabine stopped him, and

suggested they paint on him instead.

Okay, yeah, I know, just because Kanan died doesn't mean we're not on Disney XD, but

still.

Is paint the strongest message, Sabine?

Do you really think you're even now?

Ezra and the wolves was a little less straightforward.

We still don't really know how they work, what they're about, what they want, or anything

like that.

One of the wolves claims that he is Dume, and the subtitles confirm it's Kanan's

former last name.

I think the wolves were very aggressively encouraging Ezra to honor Kanan's memory

by taking charge.

He is ready to grow beyond what his master taught him.

The wolves suggest Ezra make his way to the Jedi temple, and I think it's a safe bet

that next week the Rebels will break in and Ezra will head into all that Mortis-related

stuff.

These episodes, especially Jedi Night, were a strong start to what remains of Star Wars

Rebels.

I really hope the final five episodes will be just as compelling.

But what did you guys think of Jedi Night and Dume?

Barbot Build Part 2- Interface and Control Box - Duration: 25:27.

Give me that robot. Let's give it a taste

It's not as good as I imagined, so I'm going to work on my recipes, see you in part two.

Hey everyone! As you can see the frame of my BarBot is still a bit wobbly.

So first I'm going to try to reinforce it a little bit.

So this is the bracket I 3D printed in the last video for attaching the drag chain to the stepper motor.

I did a couple of test before, but this is the final version.

Okay, drag chain works fine. Now I need an enclosure for the electronics.

Recently I got really neat label machine, it's perfect for this, let me show you.

There is some paper on the back I have to peel off.

And then just stick it on the button.

Now we have a really neat little button with the number on it.

I don't normally show a lot of CAD.

Because it is kind of boring to watch somebody else to use a computer.

But this is kind of neat, I'm preparing the laser-cut panels .

So I made this aluminum framework and this is going to be the screw hole.

I am going to fast-forward a little bit, but at the end I'm going to slow down

and show you how to export a file from TinkerCAD for laser cutting.

Okay, so this is the cool part- I have the panel. I could 3D print it- it's small enough.

But I'm going to make a cross-section of it. I'm going to slice it long-wise trough.

I'm going to export it as an SVG file, and that can be imported into lots of laser cutter software

And I'm going to view with a SVG viewer.

There's a lot out there. You know- just to make sure the circle is a circle.

Everything looks the way it should be. And then I'll send that out to a local Shenzhen laser cutting place.

I get it back in about 12 to 24 hours, so now I am pretty exciting about laser cutting work.

The laser cut acrylic panel I had it made turned out very nice.

But they have this paper on the top. I have to peel it off first, then I will put the button on one by one.

So the first one I'm going to put in is zero.

How about that? Not bad, right?

I just realized I did them all backwards, so I have to do it again.

I have to flip this, and then put them back on.

Now they are all lighting up. Pretty cool, huh? I have to keep going.

So in the last video some of you commented and said the orange juice didn't go all the way through to the spirit measure.

And you asked me to change the delay time in the code- but it's not a code problem. Let me show you.

See now is filling up. And when I press it-

all the way through.

And again.

But now nothing comes out. The fluid doesn't go out all the way.

I think is because there is vacuum on the top.

That's why it can't come out easily.

But I am going to tilt it a little bit.

It's a temporary solution. I'll figure something out later.

So right now there is a key here for my friend King or whoever is running the dispenser, the manager.

With the key in this position, you just need to press the button and it will dispense a drink.

But I want my friend to be able to charge. So I got a coin collector from an arcade company.

So with the key in this position you can't do anything.

Unless you put a coin in.

Then push a button.

It will work so that she can sell coins to people and charge them.

And I am just going to do the same thing here.

Export the cross-section as an SVG and then send it out to the laser cutting company.

So looks like it is ready to go.

There's only one thing left. I am going to take it out and let people try it and see what they think.

Violet Evergarden IS Worth Watching | First Reaction - Duration: 8:18.

Watch Violet Evergarden.

Normally with these videos, I start off pretty coy.

I'd usually say something like, "Is Violet Evergarden worth watching?"

I put emphasis on the question, making it seem like it could go either way.

I would talk about its good points, its bad points, but ultimately leave it up to you

Not today.

Watch Violet Evergarden.

The reason why I usually leave it up to the viewer is because I understand that not every

anime will be to everyone's liking and that a particular show might not be what you

personally are looking for in an anime.

It might not be the kind of series you would want to watch, and that's fine.

But in this particular case, I cannot take the chance – however small – that me being

ambiguous about this will stop someone who will love this show from watching it.

Thus I say again: watch Violet Evergarden.

SO, with that out of the way, let me explain WHY!

Violet Evergarden, at the time of recording this, is a currently airing anime series produced

by Kyoto Animation.

It follows the story of the titular Violet, a young girl of the emotionally distant persuasion,

who is forced to adopt a civilian lifestyle after spending the last several years as a

military tool.

I emphasize the word tool, as her personality and decision making process is far more logical

and mechanical than empathetic and emotional.

After losing both her arms during the recent war in an alternate version of Europe, her

new handler Gilbert (a former soldier himself) hires Violet to work at his company where

she eventually decides to train to become an "Auto Memory Doll".

This is a writer of sorts, someone who listens to the desires of various customers and produces

written letters for them to send to their loved ones.

The time period of this anime is one when a decent chunk of the population does not

possess the ability to write.

So that's why this job exists.

While Violet is mechanically capable of writing letters, operating the typewriter with insane

levels of speed, accuracy, and grammatical ability, the letters she produces are…less

emotional than people would like.

Her personality is much like that of a doll and one of her few desires is to be able to

understand the emotions of those around her and to get better at conveying those emotions

on paper.

Violet is an interesting character because we are not really sure what her deal is yet.

At the moment, her personality makes it very easy for one to just brush her off as

another Rei Aianami clone, one whose emotionless state is such a part of her character that

it will never be changed.

But the story is currently set up in such a way that it looks like a journey for her

to eventually come out of that emotionless shell.

Near the end of the war, she was told by her previous handler that he loved her, and she

is desperate to understand what exactly those words mean.

She is currently emotionless in the vast majority of her interactions, yes, but she quite obviously

has the desire and drive to understand emotion.

Which is a far cry from your regular Rei clone.

There's so much room for growth here that it makes me excited to see where her character

will eventually go.

What I also like is how the show is slowly weaving in its secondary characters, both

to flesh out their stories personally, but also to also allow them to build on Violet's

personal story.

So far, we've only gotten small snippets of time with the vast majority of these characters,

but the story has utilized them so well that even in this short amount of time they've

been able to display a substantial amount of their own personality and desires without

clogging up the narrative.

It's this detail that makes me appreciate the writing in this series.

But of course the writing is obviously not the only place where details have been placed.

Hopefully you have noticed by now that in the clips I have been using, there is an attention

to detail in the artwork of this series that is masterful.

The backgrounds, the fluid movements of the characters…there is a lot much detail on display

here, but never so much that it becomes the focus of your attention.

The scenes of this series are beautiful, enough so that most individual frames are almost

like paintings in and of themselves.

But even with that level of detail and beauty, I have not yet felt that the animation distracts

from the narrative that it's trying to tell.

Now I'm going to turn down the praise a tad.

Only a tad though.

I feel like there will be a decent amount of viewers who will watch this series and

see it as pretty, but slow.

And I wouldn't blame them to a point.

It's not bellowing ahead at full speed towards some kind of climatic conclusion.

There is also the issue of where the series might end up going.

I've already seen the possibility of one horrible ending on the horizon depending on

how it's written and presented.

But this is a series that I think can be easily wrapped up in a little pretty bow, should they choose so.

and as good looking and audibly pleasing as it is, there is still the possibility that it'll

be ruined in the end.

This is one of the downsides of a slower story like this.

It's harder to predict where it's going because it's so easy for them to make slight

course corrections without you noticing.

However, I am quite optimistic with it, because the level of detail that we've seen so far

leads me to believe that this is a story that's been planned out in full from the start.

Combine this with the fact that the material it's adapting has been completed,

there's no excuse there for them to leave us hanging.

So I'm trying to be hopeful.

I don't praise this show simply because it's a Kyoto Ani series like some might.

I know all too well their missteps.

And the fact that this show's director has only ever directed Beyond the Boundary prior

to now did have me worried before I sat down to watch this.

I wasn't a fan of Beyond the Boundary.

But honestly, I currently feel like this series is good enough for me to say that I already

have an extremely strong contender for my best anime of 2018, and the year has

only just begun!

I know that the shows are coming up later in this year are supposed to be really good,

and like 2018 is looking to be quite phenomenal!

and yet this one might still end up being my favourite.

It has the potential, but only time will tell.

At the time of this video, Violet Evergarden is available on Netflix…unless you live

in the United States.

Oh man, I would feel bad about this – well, more than I do, because this is an amazing

series and I'm telling you guys to watch it – but the amount of times I've been unable to watch

a series because it wasn't available in Canada and yet you guys had full access?

Yeah… now you know how it feels.

Not sure why Netflix in the US isn't simulcasting the series.

I assume there is some kind of rights issue, but from my research you will eventually get

access to the series on the service.

You just might have to wait until its done airing and they release it all in one batch.

Oh well.

That's it from me today.

If you've seen the first episodes of this show, let me know in the comments what

you thought about them, just no spoilers please for those who haven't seen it.

As usual, a large thanks to my patrons who make these videos possible.

And until next time, Stay Frosty everyone.
