iPhone rolling. GoPro rolling. Little bitty mic. Action. Action.
I'm Dom Ouano. I'm a filmmaker here in San Jose, California. I am here with...
Hey it's BQ. It ain't exclusive if it ain't EMLN exclusive. And I'm an entrepreneur based out of
South San Jose. Early mornings and late nights. EMLN. That's what it is.
Alright so right now, what we're doing is I'm showing BQ how I set up the mic and
the GoPro because I do a couple of videos in the car. For anybody who's
curious how to set up cameras in a car... I have a GoPro right here. So let's take a
look at that. So I have a GoPro hooked up to the windshield and basically looking
at both me and BQ. We have the GoPro going at the same time as the iPhone and
I like to use the audio from the iPhone just because I think it sounds
better than using the voice memo. It also gives us another, a second camera angle
as well. So we have two cameras. GoPro. iPhone. And this right here is the Rode
smartLav+, which I've done a video about before. So that right here is plugged
into the iPhone and that's where the audio is coming from. And uhh I don't have it
attached to anything. Typically I'd have it attached to maybe my seatbelt or my
shirt. Or if we're interviewing somebody we're going back and forth...
Hopefully my my hand being on the microphone doesn't cause too much of
any kind of shuffling or anything like that... That'd be a waste of a video.
Yeah man that would suck. Haha but yeah I'm just showing
Brandon here because he's been interviewing a lot of people and we're
planning on doing some more specifically for EMLN Labs and EMLN Exclusive.
We're interviewing different artists, entrepreneurs that are hard workers up
early mornings and late nights. EMLN. Yeah when we're interviewing other
people who live that EMLN lifestyle. Right now with you're watching...
Two creatives collabing, meshing, doing something great, impactful to the
space in the community and the space in their city. Everywhere
you go. But the most important thing people must take away from this is
that he knows something that I don't know. I know something that he might not
know. We're collaborating. We're learning from each other. It's all about levelling
up. Exactly and people are hitting us up. You're hearing our phones going.
Hotline bling right now! Laughing face... So hope you take some notes. Hope
you were very interested by the way we explained this. If you have more
questions, contact my man Dom right here and we'll be able to provide the
information for you. It ain't exclusive if it ain't EMLN exclusive. That's Dom. This is BQ...
If you're interested in doing a video with me, you can hit up my email. DOMCOVID@gmail.com
You can also fill out the contact form on my website. I'll have
links to that in the video description down below. I'll also have links to EMLN
Exclusive. You want to say anything else? Just subscribe to the YouTube channel.
Keep it simple for all y'all. I'll have a link to that.

Single Better Than Married for Christians? - Duration: 3:06.
Craig Huggart: According to Scripture, is singleness better than being married?
Watch to find out.
Hi, I'm Craig of CraigHuggart.com for the latest in happiness hacks from a Christian
perspective, make sure you subscribe to my channel, where I publish new videos every
month.
In 1 Corinthians 7, Paul, a single man said: "I wish that all men were like myself."
After 26 years of marriage, in 2011, I was divorced.
It was the toughest time of my life, but now I am happier than I have ever been.
In this video, I share with you three facts about happiness from a Christian perspective.
Number one: happiness is an inside job.
Ultimate sustainable happiness does not come from union with another person but from union
with Christ.
Nobody gets you like God, your Creator gets you.
Number two: marriage can distract from happiness.
In other words, it's easier to find happiness in Jesus, if you're single.
Number three: happiness is a gift from God.
As we mentioned earlier, Paul said, "I wish that all men were like me."
Why?
Singleness is a gift from God, whether you're not yet married, whether you've chosen to
be single, whether you're divorced, singleness is a gift from God.
It gives you a unique grace to focus on Him and be happier!
There's an old song that goes like this: "I am loved, I am loved.
I can risk loving you for the one who knows me best loves me most."
Examine the Scriptures for yourself.
Is singleness better than being married?

Inverted and Implied Conditionals ↔️ IF clauses 👩🏫 English Grammar with JenniferESL - Duration: 12:44.
Hi everyone. It's Jennifer here with a lesson on conditional sentences in English.
This is just one of several lessons I have on this grammar topic. You can click on the link to see the whole playlist.
If you've been following me for a while, you'll know that one thing
I like to focus on is the difference between formal and informal English.
In the previous lesson, which was some time ago, I taught the expression "even if it kills me."
It's a conversational expression.
and of course there's some exaggeration. But that's rather typical of informal talk.
I gave you the example of me playing the piano.
There are some pieces I'm learning to play. A few are really challenging,
but I'm going to learn them even if it kills me.
So that means I'm going to do it no matter what. I'm determined to make this happen.
For homework, I asked you to create your own example with "even if it kills me." Many of you did this task.
I'd like to share just a few examples with everyone.
Sherlie wrote:
Good example. Let's just add a period at the end.
Many of you wrote similar goals about learning English. Here's Gabriel's.
Saddam is an ambitious investor, I think. He wrote:
Note that I added the article "the" before "shares" because those are specific from context.
George shared an example about a determined traveler.
Finally, Susanna created an example about a past goal. Take a look and note the changes that I'm suggesting.
Thank you to everyone who completed the task. These are viewers who also shared their examples.
I encourage you to go to the comments and read all the examples so you can learn from one another.
Inverted conditionals invert the subject and verb, so it reminds us of question word order.
Inverted conditionals drop the word "if" and we're left with the conditional that's understood.
It's implied. It also sounds rather formal.
Marat, Ray, and Ra'ed
correctly rewrote conditionals with "if" as inverted conditionals. Let's look at their answers.
Remember that inverted conditionals are more common in formal English.
Contractions are more typical of informal English, right? So, don't try to mix
contractions and inverted conditionals, okay?
Use full verb forms instead.
There are other ways we can express a condition without the word "if" and without a full clause. In other words, we can use
implied conditionals.
I'm going to share some words and phrases that you can use in speaking or in writing.
They're a bit more typical of formal English, but that doesn't mean you won't hear them in everyday situations.
You know, formal doesn't have to be serious and boring so let's have a bit of fun.
I searched online for strange products, and I found quite a lot. Would you like to hear about a few?
Do you like bananas?
Do enjoy sliced bananas?
If so, you can buy a banana slicer for anywhere between five and ten US dollars. Really!
I was surprised to learn that people actually spend money on such a gadget.
Can't they use a simple kitchen knife to slice up the banana? If not, could they just enjoy a whole banana?
If so and if not or implied conditionals we use them to avoid repetition.
When the answers can only be yes or no,
We use if so and if not to list the two possible outcomes concisely.
Do you enjoy sliced bananas? If so... if not...
Can't they just use a simple kitchen knife to slice up the banana? If not...
I'm sure any parents listening agree with me on
Safety and the need to teach small children what to eat and what not to eat.
I discovered some odd lickable products out there, for example, lickable wallpaper
and lickable bubbles.
Children, in my opinion, shouldn't be licking the walls or eating bubbles in the air.
Otherwise, they'll come to assume that these are safe and normal behaviors.
"Otherwise" is an adverb. It implies a result of the opposite condition.
So if the kids don't lick the walls, that's good in my opinion.
If they lick the walls, that's rather strange and possibly unsafe.
Note how I express that idea in fewer words by using "otherwise."
Children, in my opinion, shouldn't be licking the walls or eating bubbles in the air.
Otherwise, they'll come to assume that these are normal and safe behaviors.
I believe in the value of oral hygiene, and I bet you do as well.
But I didn't realize that people spend money on a tongue brush.
I find that rather odd.
Don't we have another invention for that purpose?
We've had the modern toothbrush since the 1930s,
and I read that the Chinese invented a bristle toothbrush back in the 15th century.
Although it's called a toothbrush, I believe it's perfectly fine to use a toothbrush to clean your tongue.
I was taught to brush my teeth and then use the same toothbrush to clean my tongue.
If necessary, you can add more toothpaste to the brush and then take care of your tongue. Then it will be clean and minty.
" If necessary" is another implied conditional and it's very convenient,
especially in writing. The full clause is "if it is necessary" or "if it becomes necessary."
If necessary, you can add more toothpaste to the brush. So if it is necessary.
A similar expression is "if need be." Here's an example.
Some people enjoy variety in their lives.
They like trying different clothing styles, different hair colors, and different foods.
If need be, they'll even seek variety in their personal care products.
Did you know there are flavors of toothpaste like pine, bacon, and pickle?
You may be able to find such flavors online or in a store.
If possible, would you try a flavor other than mint?
So "if need be" has the same meaning as "if necessary" or "if one has to."
If need be, they'll even seek variety in their personal care products.
As I was talking about toothpaste, I used another implied conditional:
"If possible." The full clause is "if it is possible" or "if it were possible."
If possible, would you try a flavor oOther than mint?
If there are any teachers out there, please check the video description. I have a link to my ELT blog.
I created a handout so you can practice all these implied conditionals.
And you'll be able to bring the fun and humor of strange toothpaste flavors into your classroom.
For the rest of you, here's your homework task.
I'd like you to choose at least one of the implied conditionals and create an example.
I'll share some of your ideas in our next lesson on conditionals.
Here's a bonus task to challenge you. Does the phrase "if anything" make a statement stronger or weaker?
In other words, if I use "if anything," does it emphasize or soften my idea?
Here's an example.
Coffee toothpaste doesn't seem like a good idea.
If anything, it defeats one of the purposes of brushing your teeth: to freshen your breath.
We'll talk about "if anything" and other
conversational expressions with "if" in our next lesson on conditionals.
That's all for now. As always, thanks for watching and happy studies!

Attractive woman is not going anywhere since it is not the quality that people – particularly

There are so many other aspects that make a woman lovable and unforgettable.
To begin with, let's hear the words from Audrey Hepburn.
"The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or
the way she combs her hair.
The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart,
the place where love resides.
True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul.
It's the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows & the beauty of
a woman only grows with passing years."

Drip Irrigation-Part 3-Using Drip Tape - Duration: 4:18.
Welcome to part 3 of how to assemble a drip irrigation system. Today we're going
to show you how to install the most popular drip irrigation, drip tape.
If you haven't watched part one yet be sure and do so because that will tell you how to
get the water from your water source to the drip tape via the poly tubing.
Drip tape is great for vegetable gardens requiring even watering. The tape has
little slits every eight inches to deliver water directly to your veggies.
Drip tape can only be installed in straight lines so it is not appropriate
for gardens with scattered plants. For those try emitterline or soaker hose,
which you'll find out more about in part four and five of this video series. To
install drip tape bring your water up to the garden with poly tubing as shown in
part one video. Be sure and choose the correct pressure regulator because drip
tape must be used with pressures less than 10 psi.
You have two options for transition from poly tubing to drip tape depending on your garden configuration.
If you only have a small contiguous area to be watered you can use a Drip Tape Loc Sleeve 1/2" Barbed Fitting
in the end of the poly tubing. The barbed side fits
into the open end of the poly and the locking side fits into the drip tape.
From there you can branch your drip tape in any direction that you want using
elbows and tees. At the end of every line of drip tape seal it off with a
Drip Tape Loc Sleeve End With Cap for easy flushing or the simple Drip Tape Sleeve End. If
If you have a larger garden or a garden with beds separated by paths try this
installation instead. Extend your 1/2 inch poly tubing so that it runs the
full length of one side of your planting area or raised beds. For raised beds, use
Power-Loc Elbows at each bend to bring the tubing up to planting level. Anywhere
along the tubing that you would like drip tape to branch off use a punching
tool to make a hole in poly tubing in the side your drip tape
will extend, not on the top. Then insert the small end of a Drip Tape Loc Sleeve 1/4" Barbed Fitting into the hole.
Alternately you can use a Perma-Loc 1/4" Barbed Fitting with shut off. This fitting allows you to individually turn off each drip tape line on and off.
When cutting your tape to the lengths you require cut it in between the emitters not on the emitter slit.
When you install your drip tape make sure that the side with the slits
is facing up. Slide the drip tape over the fitting with the nut turned all the
way back and out of the way. The tape only needs to be fitted over the second barb to hold it securely.
A couple of installation tips. Lay out your poly tubing and your drip tape in the warm
sun. It will be a lot easier to deal with and unwind.
Another tip if it's hard to get your fittings into either the end of
your poly tubing or at the end of the drip tape, just moisten it a little bit
with cold water or spit, that works too.
Some people install their drip tape under pressure with water, you will get wet that way and if you don't want to
you can install it dry like we did and then test for leaks. After testing for
leaks and fixing any issues go ahead and ground staple down your drip tape so it
stays in nice straight lines. So install some drip tape and grow organic for life!
-------------------------------------------
Drip Irrigation-Part 1-Set-Up at the Faucet - Duration: 5:00.
Welcome to part 1 of a five-part series on how to install and assemble drip
irrigation systems. Whether you're going to be using poly tubing, drip tape, soaker
hose, emitterline or with various sprinklers and emitters you're going to
start out with the same planning and assembly. To begin with get out your pen
and pad and tape measure for the planning session. Your drip irrigation
system begins at the water source, whether that's a free-standing faucet
near your garden, a hose bib on your house, a spigot near a well ditch or
other water source. Start by measuring how far it is from your water source to
your gardens and also whether you can water all your gardens with one line
from the source or if you'll need several lines such as if your gardens
are located in different directions from the faucet, or you need to determine if
you need more feet of line than the system can support at once. You'll also
need to measure your garden beds, length and width. From the measures you've taken
you can now draw out all of your gardens on paper. Note each measurement on your
drawing then draw in or note what you'll be watering–veggie beds, flowers,
perennials, trees and shrubs should all be included in your diagram. Now it's
time to take the time and analyze what kind of drip system is going to be the
best for you. You need to incorporate several types for the most efficient irrigation.
Check out the corresponding videos on each type of irrigation system to learn
more about what each system is used for before you decide, or you can check out
any one of our drip irrigation assembly guides at groworganic.com.
The first part of your system from your water source to the edge of your garden
will be the same no matter what kind of drip irrigation system you choose. At the
end of either a hose or faucet the first thing you'll install is a Y-connection
or you can use a 4-way connection. This allows you to water other things and use
your faucet for other things without disconnecting your drip system. Next
install a vacuum breaker. This will prevent back flow from your
irrigation system and prevent your water source from becoming contaminated. This
will be especially important if you plan to be using a fertilizer injector system.
If you are going to be using a fertilizer injector system now is the
time to install it, however, read the manufacture instructions carefully
because some timers can't be used with the fertilizer injector system and possibly
some other components of the drip system that you choose. A filter should be
installed next, this will prevent your drip system from getting clogged. A
flushable Y-filter is very easy to clean or you can use an economical
inline filter. A filter is especially important if you're using a fertilizer
injector or if your water source is from a well, irrigation pond or a ditch. An
optional accessory to add next is a timer. There are a variety of timers to
choose from. Anywhere from a simple mechanical timer to a fully digital
Wi-Fi enabled timer that you program from your smartphone or computer and
everything in between. Adding a timer will save you time and money on your
water bills. Most drip systems work best with a fixed pressure regulator. If you
find out that your water pressure may be too high, you can determine what type of
pressure regulator to use based on the type of drip system you're going to be
installing. Now that your irrigation system is protected, filtered, timed and
regulated you can add the poly tubing. The poly tubing will bring the water to
the edge of your garden. So at the end of the pressure regulator you'll need to
install a Power-Loc Starter, depending on your design this might be a single
female starter or a Tee, for two lines of poly tubing. Attach your 1/2 inch poly to the starter and then power lock it in place.
Now you're ready to lay it down in the garden. You can stake it down with ground
staples or you can hold it firmly in place along a wooden deck or raised beds
with mounting clips. Your irrigation is ready for the next step, how to get the
water from the poly tubing to the plants. Check out our corresponding videos on
how to set up a drip irrigation using emitterline, soaker-hose, drip tape and all
the rest of the accessories, and grow organic for life!

Meet Homeboy Electronics Recycling | HP - Duration: 2:51.
<i>Donnie:</i> I remember how it felt
the morning I came home from prison.
I cried.
Standing watching cars that I hadn't seen for over 20 years.
Seeing birds, it was emotional,
because for so many years I wasn't able to do that.
You're anxious because you're out and gotta go get a job.
<i>Kabira:</i> Homeboy Electronics Recycling exists
to be the best electronics recycling company L.A. has ever seen,
but we also exist to provide, specifically, job opportunities
for people who face real barriers to employment:
people who have been to prison,
people who have gone through tough times in their life
and are ready to get back into the workforce
and back into the economy.
We're a small but mighty crew,
and the fact that HP is now working with us
is astounding.
The fastest growing waste stream in the world is electronic waste.
So, that's your cell phone, your computer,
that drawer full of wires. It's ending up in our landfills.
It's not where our electronics should be.
By recycling electronics, we're just reusing those natural resources
that we've already extracted.
<i>Charles:</i> With HP, the focus right now
is to separate the two types of plastics in the printers.
Our goal is to get as much value from that equipment as possible.
So, the more we tear it down here into its component parts,
the more value we get.
We tear down products and we find value in the product.
Prison tears down people.
And what we're doing is we're finding that value again in people.
<i>Donnie:</i> Coming to work every day is a joy.
You know, I get here 30 minutes early because it just feels good.
We all know who we are. We all know each other's background.
And we are there for one another.
There's genuine love because we all come from the same walk of life.
The freedom is priceless. You know, I cherish it every day.
I just take time out to really enjoy things
that people take for granted.
<i>Kabira:</i> We've stopped thinking of the people
in this organization as people with criminal records.
I see change-makers. I see people who have been
dedicated to changing their lives, and to changing what we do with
electronic waste here in Los Angeles.
<i>Donnie:</i> And it just fills you up,
to know that each and every day you come in,
you're making a difference.

How To BUFF The ICE-TYPE And Make It BETTER Within Pokémon - Duration: 8:03.
It's no surprise that the ice type sucks…
In fact it's been considered to be the Worst type for a few generations now.
Though it received some love in Generation 7 with moves such as aurora veil and the ability
slush rush, the type itself still isn't able to hold it own in battle.
So that's why in today's video I wanna talk about what I would personally change
to the ice type to make it a nice typing overall in battle.
If you guys do enjoy this video then be sure to HERO PUNCH that LIKE BUTTON!
If you don't hit that dislike button.
Lemme know how ya feel.
COMMENT down with your thoughts and opinions once you are done watching the video, and
also let me know in what ways you'd make the ice type better if you had the power to
do so.
SHARE the video around if you wanna help support the channel!
And finally, SUBSCRIBE and hit that lil bell icon if you want to stay up to date with all
my content!
Now lets slide right into the video!
What's going on guys!
HybridHero here!
Now I do quickly wanna say that though I am going to be talking about ways to buff the
ice type, I am in no way a hardcore competitive Pokemon player.
I don't snow what the competitive battle scene is like.
I'm just a fan of the series who plays showdown and online battles occasionally, so some of
my ideas might be terrible or a bit too outlandish so forgive me for that but again feel free
to let me know how you feel about my ideas.
Also there are two videos that I recommend you check out watching before or after this
video and that's Eriyzo's What Is The Worst Pokemon Type Video and False Swipe Gaming
and ThunderBlunder's How Good Were Ice Types Actually video.
Both of these videos will really explain to you the pros and cons of the Ice typing and
go more in depth to the various different aspects of the Ice type if you aren't aware
of them already.
Now if you're still here I'm sure you're aware that offensively the Ice type doesn't
need much help at all.
The type has a variety of different physical and special moves that can deal a ton of damage,
has the ability to freeze Pokemon, and scares away 4 different types making Pokemon like
Garchomp, Dragonite, Jumpluff quad weak to it.
The issue here is that defensively it has absolutely nothing going on for it.
1 resistance, and that being to itself is nothing to be proud of.
So if we want to buff the Ice type we're mainly going to have to play along over here.
If you were to literally look at things it kinda makes sense as to why Ice only resists
itself, but this Pokemon dang it!
If I can make an Ice cream cone fight alongside me, I can make it defy elemental logic as
well.
If we're to take a look at the 18 different types and see which types the Ice type might
be able to resist I would say Bug and Grass are two of the ones that first come to mind.
And trust me as someone who lives in canada I can safely assure you that no bug or blade
of grass here is touching any kinda ice unless the ice or snow falls on top of it.
But the thing here is the bug and grass types aren't all to great offensively as they
both have a lot of Pokemon that resist them already.
So I don't think it would be fair to buff the ice type at the expense of nerfing one
of these two types.
The next place to look for me would be the flying type.
Ice is already super effective against flying so it wouldn't be too crazy if Ice suddenly
resisted flying, however I'd say that the flying type is one of, if not the most balanced
type in the game.
Similarly to the bug and grass type I wouldn't really want to make changes to it either cause
the flying type is overall pretty solid, one type I don't mind making changes to however
is the ground type.
Just like flying and grass, the ground type is a typing that Ice is super effective against,
but unlike flying and grass the ground type is offensively one of the best types in the
game!
If you couldn't already tell by all the players that run earthquake on their team
of course.
As it's super effective against 5 different typings and only has Pokemon of two typings
that resist it, I'm sure that by making Ice type Pokemon resistant to ground type
moves we wouldn't be harming the ground type too much at all, and we'd be giving
the Ice type a great buff at the same time!
And not to mention that the two types that resist ground are the bug and grass types.
The two types that we just previously mentioned for being some of the weaker types in the
game.
So if we were to include ice on this list then 3 of the weaker types could have something
in common.
I wouldn't make the Ice type resist Dragon as the Dragon type has already had a lot done
to it with the addition of the fairy typing.
As for the fairy typing it is a Pokemon that I'd like to nerf just a bit, but I don't
see how the Ice typing can do anything to help out with that, but if you'd like to
see a video on How I'd nerf the fairy type then be sure to let me know.
Another type that I'd tinker with is believe it or not…
Water.
I think it would be safe if the Ice type actually resisted water type moves.
I know water already resists Ice, but to be honest I never quite understood that…
To me it seems like Ice should be super effective against water as Water freezes and solidifies
to become ice!
But for some reason water resists so hey we'll go along with it since we're not looking
to expand the Ice Type's offensive capabilities anyways.
I don't see what the issue would be if Ice and water both resisted each other.
Again if you really think about it, both types are the same anyways so if you left water
types to resist Ice type moves, and made ice types to resist water type move, sure you
may have a long battle ahead of you but that's where normal type moves come in and I think
it makes sense to have it this way too.
Water is a good type offensively, and great defensively so lowering its offensive capabilities
just a little shouldn't be too harmful to the type overall though I do think it might
affect the type a bit more than the change I made to the ground type.
I would leave it here as I feel like I messed with the type system enough already, but if
this still isn't enough I still have one more idea up my sleeve.
With these changes the Ice type will have 3 resistances that being to Ice, Ground and
Water but some of you may not like the sound of 3 resistances, so… how about we drop
the number of restances to 2, and make the ice type the first Pokemon to be immune to
itself!
Ice type Pokemon already are immune from being frozen, and it's not like ice type moves
do a whole lot to a majority of the ice types anyway so why not just grant them the immunity?!
Most of the Ice Type Pokemon are frozen as it is, so I'd imagine that hitting them
with an Ice type move would kinda be like giving them extra muscle mass or something
to help it grow or protect it, I don't see how it'd hurt them.
I know with this logic fire type moves probably shouldn't hurt fire type pokemon, electric
type moves with electric type Pokemon, and so on, but really if any Pokemon type should
be immune to itself, I think it's the ice type cause again it has nothing really going
for it, and Ice cream cones don't get hurt by being in the freezer.
I also get that if all these changes were to take place, Mamoswine would be a LOT more
of a monster than it already is, but hey…
That's tomorrows issue!
:) So to sum things up to buff the Ice type I think all that needs to be focused on is
enhancing the Ice type's defensive capabilities, and I think by making the Ice type resist
both ground and water as well as maybe even possibly changing its Ice type resistance
into an immunity, we'd have a much more usable, and capable Ice type in the games!
But what do you guys think?!
Am I getting too crazy with my ideas or does it sound pretty good?
And again be sure to let me know what changes you'd all make to the type!
If you wanna see a video on every unused type prior to Generation 8 then MysticUmbreon and
I did a collab that you can check out right here Thanks for watching guys!
I hope you enjoyed!
Take care of yourselves, have a wonderful day!
And I will see you on the next video alright?
Later!

Know Your Plane #5 | Embraer 145 ISR (E-99): The Brazilian AWACS Plane - Duration: 21:21.
This is the Brazilian eye in the sky, the Embraer 145 ISR – Intelligence, Surveillance
and Reconnaissance aircraft – which contains some of the most advanced electronic systems
used today in modern warfare.
With its powerful radars and sensors this medium-sized platform can spot threats from
hundreds of kilometres away, gather vital information and simultaneously relay them
to allied units in real time.
This episode of Know Your Plane will focus on the military version of Embraer's successful
regional jet series that is employed by the Brazilian, Greek, Mexican and Indian air forces.
As a disclaimer, this video will cover the Embraer 145 ISR platform in general but with
a special focus on the Surveillance Aircraft model operated by the Brazilian Air Force.
Included in this video are the history of the platform, a short explanation of its different
variants and the specifications of the aircraft and its electronic systems.
The origins of the Embraer surveillance aircraft date back to September of 1990 when the Brazilian
government established two major programs focused on the Amazon region.
With land borders totalling over 11,000 kilometres the Amazon is Brazil's strategic northern
frontier and with a size of 5 million square kilometres consisting mostly of jungle and
unpopulated territory it is no wonder that monitoring the borders of the Amazon is a
challenge for the Brazilian government.
Elements that threaten Brazilian sovereignty include active guerrilla groups based across
the border and who are known to have stepped into Brazilian territory, the most notable
case being the Colombian Revolutionary Armed Forces, and the trafficking of both drugs
and weapons into Brazil.
Equally important to the country is the monitoring and control of the enormous airspace over
the region, the protection of the mineral resources under the Amazon forest against
illegal exploration, and the protection of the jungle and its biodiversity against pollution,
unrestricted logging activities and most notably fires who have the goal of clearing the jungle
for agricultural land – as a matter of fact by the year of 1990 these activities I just
mentioned had already eliminated over 13% of the original Amazon forest, an area larger
than France.
In order to strengthen its sovereignty and tackle the issues previously mentioned the
Brazilian government established the SIPAM (Sistema de Proteção da Amazônia /
Protection System of the Amazon) together with another program called SIVAM
(Sistema de Vigilância da Amazônia / Surveillance System of the Amazon).
One measure of these two programs included the installation of several radars across
the forest to improve monitoring capabilities over the Amazon, however because of the size
and lack of infrastructure of the area it just wasn't viable to install enough radars
to cover all the airspace over the forest, moreover these radars did not have the capability
of detecting aircraft at altitudes under 10,000 feet which proved to be another issue since
aircraft involved in drug and weapon trafficking usually fly just over the treetops.
In order to detect these low flying aircraft and cover the airspace beyond the range of ground-based
radars the Brazilian government ordered special modifications of existing air force aircraft
that were supposed to patrol the skies over the forest.
In the year of 1994 the government decided that in addition to the capability of monitoring
and controlling the airspace, this special aircraft was also to monitor the forest in
search of pollution, illegal activities and collect data for scientific research purposes
and with the goal of developing better policies for the region.
The chosen aircraft was the nimble Embraer 120 Brasília who was employed by the Brazilian
Air Force as a light transport aircraft.
During preliminary studies for the necessary modifications of the Brasília it was noted
that the equipment required was too heavy for the lightweight plane, actually the
Brazilian Air Force would need three Brasílias in order to carry all the weight of the equipment.
One of the most important pieces of equipment was the Swedish active electronic scanning
radar PS-890 Erieye who had been chosen for the SIVAM and was meant to be carried by a small
aircraft, but with the Brasilia being too light the air force began studying possibilities
for the deployment of a Boeing 727 attached with the Swedish radar by the end of 1994.
The platform of choice for the Erieye radar had not been decided by 1996, in that year
Embraer flew the long-range version of its regional jet series, the ERJ-145LR which had
a range of 3,000 kilometres.
Given the success of Embraer's civilian jet and the fact that Embraer had knowledge
of the military program since the Embraer Brasília was initially the platform of choice,
in 1997 the Embraer ERJ-145LR (Long-Range) was chosen as the platform for the Swedish
Erieye radar in the SIVAM program.
The new aircraft was to be known as Embraer 145SA (Surveillance Aircraft) and featured
several modifications which we will talk further along the video.
In total the Brazilian Air Force ordered 8 aircraft.
5 Embraer 145SA, whose Ericsson PS-890 Erieye radars were all purchased in 1998, and 3 Embraer
145RS (Remote Sensing) aircraft.
The remote sensing variant has a different radar under the aircraft that is meant for
acquiring data of grounds targets and collecting information about the terrain.
The first Embraer 145SA prototype flew on May 22, 1999 and the first Remote Sensing
prototype flew on December the 18 of the same year.
Despite some initial delays, the first batch of 3 aircraft was delivered to the Brazilian
Air Force in July of 2002.
Upon officially entering in service the Surveillance Aircraft variant was assigned the name "R-99A"
while the Remote Sensing variant became known as "R-99B".
However, there were some changes in the designation of the Brazilian Air Force in June of 2008
and since then, the Surveillance Aircraft variant became known as E-99 while the Remote
Sense variant became the R-99.
By the end of 2003, the remaining five aircraft have been delivered to the Brazilian Air Force
and all Embraer 145 ISR aircraft have since then been based at the Anápolis air force
base where they are flown by the Guardian Squadron (Esquadrão Guardião).
Up to this day the military version of the Embraer 145 is an essential asset for the
Brazilian Air Force's effort in monitoring and controlling the Amazon and the borders
between Brazil and its western neighbours.
Frequently working together with the E-99 are also the A-29 Super Tucanos who often
perform interceptions of suspicious aircraft detected by the E-99 which in turn has the
responsibility of overseeing the whole interception process.
Usually the interceptions are successful in making the small aircraft carrying drugs or
weapons land but there have been a few cases in interceptions controlled by E-99 where
the Super Tucanos had to fire warning shots, like in this case, or even shot down the
non-responding aircraft in some more extreme occurrences.
*Orders given in Spanish*
"Intercepted aircraft CP-1424...
...you are disobeying the orders from the air defense...
...our aircraft is armed and authorized to use its weapons to make you comply with the orders issued."
*Super Tucano fires warning shots*
Apart from the 8 Embraer 145 ISR aircraft
currently in service with the Brazilian Air Force, Embraer has also exported its ISR platform
to 3 other countries: Greece, Mexico and India.
These countries all operate different or modified versions of the aircraft, the specifications
for all these different models go beyond the scope of this video but here's a short history on all of them.
Greece ordered 4 aircraft in 1998 and they are a modified version of the Embraer 145SA
known as the Embraer 145H (Hellenic).
These aircraft have upgraded electronics and were all delivered in 2005.
One notable mention of this aircraft's service with the Greek Air Force is that it participated
in NATO's operation against Libya in 2011 by identifying targets and controlling aircraft
from France and Qatar in patrols, interceptions and attack missions.
Mexico purchased 3 aircraft in March of 2001 including one Embraer 145SA and two Maritime
Patrol versions to fight against drug trafficking in the south of the country and protect Mexico's
strategic areas.
The aircraft were delivered in 2004 and since then they have been integrated with Mexico's
SIVA (Integrated Air Surveillance System).
Last but not least is India which has purchased 3 aircraft equipped with a refueling probe in 2008.
The Indian aircraft are to be fitted with India's own electronic equipment.
The first flight of the Embraer 145I (India) was on December 7 of 2011 and the first aircraft
arrived on the following year for system integration with the Indian Air Force.
I should also mention that Embraer, in partnership with Lockheed Martin, had won the bid of the
Aerial Common Sensor program from the American military in 2004.
According to the program, Embraer was to supply a total of 57 aircraft to both the US Army and Navy.
However the American military cancelled the program where the Embraer aircraft would substitute
the RC-12 (King-Air), the RC-7 (Dash 7) from the army and the EP-3 Aries II from the navy.
With all these different operators mentioned let's perform a very quick explanation on
the different variants of this aircraft.
At first, we have the Embraer 145 SA, Surveillance Aircraft, whose only operators are the Brazilian
and Mexican Air Forces.
Five aircraft have been manufactured for Brazil, where the aircraft are known as the E-99,
and one airframe was sold to Mexico.
The most remarkable features include the Erieye radar mounted on the top of the fuselage and
some additional antennas mounted on the tail.
The next aircraft is the Embraer 145H, an improved version of the Surveillance Aircraft
with an upgraded Erieye radar, datalink compatible to NATO standards and flare and chaff dispensers.
Greece currently operate four of these aircraft which belong to the 380th Squadron.
The Indian Air Force purchased three EMB-145I fitted with a refueling probe.
This variant is based on the Surveillance Aircraft model, however all the electronic
equipment comes from India's Defense Research and Development Organisation.
Another aircraft is the Embraer 145 RS, Remote Sensing, which is operated exclusively by
the Brazilian Air Force and is also known as multi-intel.
With its synthetic aperture radar and multispectral imager, it can produce topographic maps, conduct
research on natural resources, analyse the soil and subsoil by its reflexivity and even
determine if the vegetation is healthy or not by measuring the absorption chlorophyll
from the air.
The last version of the Embraer 145 is the Maritime Patrol aircraft whose name is self-explanatory.
This aircraft was initially developed for the Brazilian government.
However due to changes in the requirements which asked for a four-engine aircraft with
internal weapons bay the Embraer 145 Maritime Patrol was discarded for usage by the Brazilian navy.
Mexico is the only operator of this variant having acquiring two aircraft.
Now that we've briefly talked about all variants, let's take a closer look on the
Surveillance Aircraft used by the Brazilian Air Force.
The E-99 has almost the same dimensions of the civilian Embraer 145LR, height and length
are the same - 6.75 and 29.87 metres respectively.
However the E-99 is 96 centimetres wider than the civilian plane at 21 metres thanks to
the addition of winglets which improve endurance and flight time.
It's worth pointing out that the E-99 was Embraer's first aircraft to feature winglets.
Amongst its notable modifications, the E-99 has strengthened joints between the fuselage
and the wings to accommodate the mounting of the Erieye radar and eliminate the risk
of shaking or vibration which would result in inaccurate readings from the radar.
The radar is mounted at an angle of 6 degrees because during patrols the aircraft's flight
profile is pointed slightly up in order to improve range and endurance, therefore in
these conditions the radar is pointed to the horizon.
Compared to the civilian version, you can also see the addition of several fins throughout
the aircraft with many of them working as antennas for the aircraft's electronic systems.
Also note the lack of windows on the mid-to-rear fuselage, there's where the data processing
computers are located.
Now let's move to the interior of the aircraft.
Behind the cockpit of the E-99 there is a galley and resting area that can accommodate
up to five people that are not involved with the operation of the aircraft or its electronics.
The next section of the plane consists of three interchangeable consoles where the three
operators would work.
Aft of that we have the electronic equipment including the processing computers and going
towards the rear of the aircraft you can see these six rectangles - they are actually six
fuselage fuel tank cells which add a total of 2,405 litres to the fuel capacity of the plane.
Finally, at the rearmost part of the aircraft we have a lavatory and a baggage compartment.
For a regular mission the E-99 crew consist of the two pilots, one tactical coordinator,
one electronic warfare operator and one intercept officer - therefore a total of five people.
However, the book I've read mentions that usually the mission crew is 8, so you can
add some 3 aircraft or electronic equipment technicians to the total.
The powerplant of the E-99 consists of two Rolls-Royce AE 3007 turbofan engines, the
same engines used by the civilian Embraer 145 family, therefore performance of the aircraft
is largely the same.
The maximum cruise speed of the E-99 is Mach 0.78 and its service ceiling is of 37,000 feet,
but the maximum performance of the E-99 doesn't translate to its operation.
In order to save fuel and maximize endurance the E-99 flies at around 170 knots or 314 km/h
at an altitude of 30,000 feet when patrolling the skies.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get information on the endurance nor the range of the E-99
but I would estimate a range between 3,000 to 4,000 kilometres given the extra fuselage tanks.
Other notable features worth mentioning is that the military versions of the Embraer
145 have a more powerful APU to handle all the electronic equipment and improved navigation systems
both by GPS and inertial navigation.
When talking about the electronic systems of the E-99, obviously our main focus is the
Ericsson Microwave Systems, now part of Saab, PS-890 Erieye active phased array Doppler
radar antenna mounted on the top of the fuselage.
The Swedish radar provides early warning and can detect air targets up to distances of
500 kilometres with a scan rate ranging from 3 to 12 degrees per second.
The system can also detect small and slow aircraft, such as aircraft involved in drug
trafficking, flying at speeds under 108 km/h up to distances of 450 kilometres.
According to the material I've read, the Erieye detection envelope consists of 500
kilometres to the side of the aircraft and 269 kilometres to its front or back.
Flying at high altitude, the Erieye detection area is over 500,000 square kilometres horizontally
and 20 kilometres vertically.
The Erieye radar can also detect naval targets up to distances of 350 kilometres but this
limitation is due to the angle of the plane with the horizon - because unlike some people
might say, Earth is not flat.
The system also comes integrated with a Mark X IFF capable of identifying targets up to
450 kilometres away.
In total, the radar system is capable of tracking 300 targets simultaneously while the E-99
can at the same time effectively control 6 interceptions, usually performed by the Super
Tucanos in the case of the Brazilian Air Force.
But to say that the E-99's capabilities are limited to long range detection and airspace
monitoring would be an understatement.
Adding to its powerful radar, the aircraft also features an advanced communications exploration
system capable of detecting, locating, triangulating and recording communications transmitted on
frequencies between 2MHz to 16GHz.
These communications can also be transmitted to other aircraft in real-time with a secure
datalink connection via VHF or UHF with the aid of frequency hopping techniques.
Air-to-ground communications are also possible and the E-99 takes advantage of the several
ground stations located throughout the Amazon which connect the E-99 aircraft to the SIVAM's
general coordination centre in Brasília.
Now even though the E-99 has state of the art electronic equipment onboard, I want to
make it very clear that the E-99 does not have jamming equipment or jamming capabilities,
on the contrary the E-99 is very resistant to enemy jamming.
All in all, the E-99 is modern platform capable of providing early warning and detection,
airspace management and collection of intelligence.
Adding to the advantages of this plane, the E-99 has a very short time in-between sorties
– just roughly 20 minutes – and perhaps more importantly: it is an affordable option.
Coming from the commercially successful Embraer 145 series of regional jets, the entire 145
ISR platform shares low operational cost coupled with a reduced inspection frequency and ground
time which allows the aircraft to fly over 3,000 hours annually - over 8 hours per day
of every day in the year.
To give you an idea on the operational cost of some AWACS aircraft currently in service
I've found the following data on the hourly cost of each aircraft, but please take these
numbers with a grain of salt.
The E-2 Hawkeye from the US Navy reportedly costs about $3,000 per hour, the EC-130 over
$3,500, the E-3 Sentry about $8,000 and according to the same source the E-99 would cost less
than $2,000 per hour.
However this is not to say the E-99 is the cheapest AWACS aircraft in regards to acquisition
and operational costs because there are also turbo-prop AWACS aircraft including the Saab 340
from the Swedish Air Force that is also equipped with the Erieye radar.
To conclude our video, the Embraer 145 ISR family includes some of the most advanced
military aircraft in operation today and are a good option for medium sized countries who
either can't afford or don't need the large AWACS aircraft.
Instead they can count on an affordable and versatile plane to act as their eye in the

CRKT Snarky Knife | Designer Vision From Philip Booth - Duration: 1:21.
Knives are mans most basic tool. And I carry a knife in my pocket and always have ever.
My name is Philip Booth. I'm from Ithaca, Michigan. I am thrilled to have Columbia River making my knives.
This one is the Snarky™. This is an everyday carry knife.
It's actually the knife I carry everyday.
The Snarky™ blade shape is a recurve design.
You get a nice deep belly here and then a recurve here so that reverse curve is very aggressive
because you get more edge on the blade.
It is a flipper mechanism.
It locks with a liner lock.
The lock are very secure, very tight, no wiggle. It's easily closed, making this a one-handed knife.
It has black handles.
I like this plunge line to go at the same angle as the stainless steel stripe because I like repeating shapes.
It just makes it look better.
My name's Philip Booth. This is the Snarky™.
It's not only effective, but extremely good looking.

What If Nyogtha Was Real? - Duration: 5:21.
Hello and welcome back to Life's Biggest Questions, I'm Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey.
Today we'll be continuing down the disturbing road of the Cthulhu Mythos.
Nyogtha is a Great Old One first appearing in The Salem Horror by Henry Kuttner.
This Haunter of the Red Abyss is as mysterious as it is disturbing, but what if it actually
existed?
Let's explore.
If you want more What If videos, check out our "Biggest What Ifs" playlist on the
channel.
Now get ready, it's time to ask the question: What if Nyogtha was Real?
Unfortunately, descriptions of Nyogtha are extremely vague.
It seems to be a giant beast covered in tentacles, living beneath the earth, and has been known
to influence happenings on Earth.
Sadly, while there have been a number of depictions, they tend to look at the various rites of
summoning and banishment, without actually highlighting specific powers of the beast.
However, many believe that it uses its tentacles in order to manipulate people and objects
around it, and this is the interpretation that we'll look into today.
It should be mentioned that some believe Nyogtha to simply be an avatar of the Great Old One
Nyarlathotep, but this video will assume it to be a separate entity.
With that out of the way, let's hop in.
First of all, I don't know about you, but this idea of a creature manipulating its surroundings
with far-reaching tentacles reminds me of an episode of Futurama, entitled The Beast
with a Billion Backs.
In this episode, a rift opens, connecting the main gamma universe to an alternate one,
inhabited by Yivo, a giant creature with a multitude of tentacles.
Yivo then used Fry to spread its tentacles across the universe, attaching to and influencing
the actions of every living being.
Yivo has been compared to other Lovecraftian dieties like Azathoth and Yog-Sothoth, but
I think the tentacle aspect would make Nyogtha a more apt comparison.
The problem is, while Yivo from Futurama was just looking for companionship, and was relatively
benevolent, Nyogtha would likely only be looking out for itself.
If it managed to get its hands, or rather, tentacles, on the people of Earth, we would
likely be in for a good deal of pain and suffering.
Luckily, Nyogtha doesn't have quite the same power as some of the other Great Old
Ones we've talked about.
It's believed by some that the trip to Earth weakened Nyogtha, and it had to seek help
from the Elder Things to regain strength.
They helped, hoping to control it, but when it became clear that Nyogtha didn't intend
to obey, they locked it up underground in New Zealand, and threw away the key.
This leads many to see Nyogtha as among the least powerful of the Great Old Ones, since
what power it does have is seriously limited.
However, it's possible that Nyogtha would only have to control a select few people in
order to have secondary control of many more.
We've seen in recent years the power a charismatic leader can have over their followers.
Mormonism, Scientology, even modern political groups have convinced people en masse to act
against their own interests, by convincing them that the organization had their best
interests at heart.
Nyogtha would attempt to take control of someone with a huge number of loyal followers, like
Donald Trump or even the ridiculously popular K-pop group BTS.
A few words of support from them would have their followers clamouring to join the ranks
of Nyogtha's legion.
Fortunately, there would be a way to fight back.
Basically the one thing writing on Nyogtha is explicit about is the summoning and banishing
of the Great Old One.
If people were to say the correct words to expel the beast from Earth, this calamity
could be avoided.
However, this would require people to learn that Nyogtha was real, and it might be difficult
to convince the populace of the existence of this slimy underground puppetmaster.
Of course, this is not a new idea.
For years, conspiracy theorists have claimed that the rich and powerful are part of some
outside group trying to manipulate society to meet their own goals.
Some claim this to be the Illuminati, others have and continue to blame Jewish people for
whatever reason.
Still others believe that they aren't people at all, but rather a shapeshifting race of
lizard people in the midst of infiltrating society.
However, considering most people don't believe in these theories, correctly in my humble
opinion, it might be difficult to convince them that this was the case.
On the bright side, that may not be necessary.
Since the writing is rather limited and vague, it's hard to say for sure how many people
would be required to perform the incantation, or how long its range would be.
It could be that one person saying it would remove the presence of Nyogtha worldwide,
or it could require several people to separate it from a single host.
However, it's likely that just a few believers, in the right place at the right time, would
be able to banish Nyogtha from its hosts, who could then profess the truth to the world.
This would then allow everyone around the world to chant the incantation, which would
likely remove the presence of Nyogtha from the Earth, at least for a time.
This might have long-lasting consequences.
In order to prevent future attacks from Nyogtha, we would want to make sure the rites continued
to be said, so that it wouldn't have a chance to infect any more of the population.
It might even become something spoken routinely, perhaps being said alongside the national
anthem before a football game, or even before meals, alongside or in the place of saying
grace.
Meet up with a group of friends?
Better banish Nyogtha, just to be safe.
Becky HAS been acting pretty strangely…
And now we return to our question: What if Nyogtha was Real?
Well fortunately, it's likely that it wouldn't be too powerful, having been trapped beneath
the Earth.
If, however, it managed to ensnare a few charismatic leaders, we could have millions of people
willingly but unknowingly joining the cult of Nyogtha.
On the bright side, it's likely that this could be stopped by using the incantation
to banish the Great Old One, which could then become an effective preventative measure to
keep the creature at bay.
It might be an uncertain time for a while, but eventually, the world would probably go
back to normal.
It wouldn't be ideal, but it would be a heck of a lot better than Cthulhu.

What 100,000+ Children Taught Us About Neglect in Early Childhood - Duration: 4:26.
It was the 1970s in Romania.
Secretary General Nicolae Ceaușescu was the communist leader
in charge of the country and he wanted to grow the population,
so he enacted a series of policies that outlawed both abortion and birth control.
As you can probably imagine, this did not go very well.
The population did grow, but so did widespread poverty,
and by the time Ceaușescu was overthrown in 1989,
more than 100,000 children had been abandoned to institutionalized, state-run orphanages.
Which maybe would have been okay if they'd been given proper care.
But they weren't.
When the regime fell, it became clear that the conditions in these orphanages were horrific.
The children were extremely malnourished,
had very little social interaction with adults,
and minimal care from their nurses.
Some had been tied to their beds.
They were effectively left to fend for themselves, in some cases almost from birth.
Psychologists had already known that early life relationships and care
were incredibly important for brain development.
But what followed the release of these children is one of the
clearest examples we've ever seen of what happens
when someone is almost completely deprived of those things—
as well as how they might be able to recover.
[INTRO♪]
If you're like most people, you probably don't remember much from
before about the age of three, but some pretty important stuff
happens in those early years.
Human infants are basically helpless,
so obviously they depend on their caregivers for food and shelter.
But babies also need social relationships to grow and learn.
And without that, the Romanian children in the institutions
didn't develop cognitive, emotional, and social skills the way they should have.
After the regime fell, people began adopting these children
into more stable families, mostly outside Romania.
As they were integrated into their new families,
psychology researchers began to study how they'd been affected by this
early, extreme deprivation, and the factors that influenced their recovery.
One of the main avenues of research was the English and Romanian Adoptee Study,
which followed 165 Romanian children adopted by families in the UK—
144 of whom had been in these institutions.
For comparison, it also included 52 children adopted from within the UK.
The study was longitudinal, meaning it followed the children over time to track their progress—
in this case by using tests, observations, and in-depth interviews
to measure things like their cognitive and social abilities.
Overall, after about 2 to 3 years in loving and supportive families,
these children had gone a long way toward catching up to their typically-developing peers.
But the degree of catch-up was related to how old they were when they were adopted.
Babies who were adopted before they were about 6 months old
showed the highest degree of recovery, probably because it was
still relatively early in their brains' development.
But older children were much more likely to show cognitive delays
and difficulties forming healthy relationships with their adoptive parents—
even if you take into account things like malnutrition and their overall health.
Among other things, a lot of them also had problems with attention,
impulse control, and hyperactivity, and some were aggressive.
These kids also tended to have a harder time understanding
and regulating their emotions, and they weren't as good at
identifying emotions in other people's facial expressions.
They'd gone without a consistent bond with a caregiver—or any bond at all, really—
for so long that their social and emotional skills just hadn't developed,
in a way that wasn't easy to reverse later in life.
Even before studying the children adopted from Romanian institutions,
we'd known that neglect in early childhood could cause
all kinds of developmental delays.
But you can't really design an experiment to study that—
you can't subject kids to severe neglect on purpose.
So trying to understand these children after the fact
gave researchers hard data on the effects of early neglect
that they couldn't have gotten otherwise.
But the findings from the orphanage studies taught us
something else about brain development, too:
the restorative power of relationships and interventions,
even in cases of severe deprivation.
The human brain is incredibly malleable—
and yes, it's most flexible early in life, but you can rewire it later on, too.
At least to an extent.
The road to recovery has been far from easy,
but a lot of the children who were adopted from these orphanages
have recovered more than some experts would have thought possible.
There's no denying that those first few years of life are incredibly important,
and abuse and neglect do a ton of damage.
But with the right treatment and care later on, the damage isn't necessarily permanent.

How Dosia became the X God - Duration: 8:03.
What can you say about Dosia that hasn't been said before?
His victories are numerous.
His feats made immortal.
And his fans are zealous.
But the story of the X God isn't just one about his victory over enemies on the server.
It's also about his triumph over trolls outside the game.
In the early days of CS:GO, Dosia made a name for himself.
"Let's say about the first nine months to a year of CS:GO, he was a Top 5 player in the world.
He was very, very good. Even at the time when obviously NiP had GeT_RiGhT, he had f0rest,
and then they had other players who were doing very well. Dosia was just below that level."
HLTV gave the same clout as Thorin, ranking Dosia the fourth best player in the world in 2013.
But back then, he was still just Dosia. His prowess on the server was undeniable
but outside the game, some people may have thought less of him based on his appearance.
He wasn't handsome, or athletic, and it didn't even really look like he was trying to be.
"What I don't understand is, he only plays one best of three a day. Why is he always eating?
Why, he's always on camera he's eating."
But that doesn't really matter if you're a esports athlete. Not to your fans, or your foes.
(Casting)
It was only years after Dosia became a relevant force in the CS scene that he was the subject of an emerging meme.
On July 26, 2015,
Dosia's team HellRaisers was playing against LGB in the offline qualifier for the Cologne 2015 Major.
During a technical pause, the camera took a chance to pan across each of the players when it came across Dosia doing this...
(Casting)
It was a moment that didn't go unnoticed, by fans or casters.
"That's, that's, that's a, that's a disturbing angle of Dosia. I've got to be honest."
And with that, a meme was born. But every good meme needs a name, and on the HLTV page for that match,
one user called Dosia a "sex monster."
Three days after that, another HLTV user made a forum post asking the unsuspecting public if there was anyone more sexy than
"Sex god Dosia."
The thread only got five replies,
but from there the meme spread across the CS community. With the tinder for the meme laid out,
it only needed a spark to combust. But instead, it got a Molotov.
On October 24, 2015 caricature artist kn0nker posted to Twitter that he'd be livestreaming his next piece. His subject?
"Sex god Dosia." At this point in time, kn0nker had already made a name for himself on the
/r/GlobalOffensive CS:GO subreddit. And the final image of Dosia, in all his glory, was posted to Reddit the next day to the tune of
1.5 thousand upvotes. This effectively solidified the "sex god" moniker. As the meme steadily grew in popularity,
parallels were drawn to another, older CS meme:
JW the pig.
CS:GO viewers will often spam Twitch chat, and forums, and reddit with pig-related insults whenever JW comes up.
Both memes were meant to mock the physical appearances of their subjects. But while the "sex god" meme was on the rise
JW's meme was on the decline.
JW sort of took the fire out of his meme in two ways. Firstly, by embracing it.
"F***ing enjoy brother."
And secondly, by winning.
The rise of the meme also came at a difficult point in Dosia's career.
He had just missed his first ever CS:GO Major when he didn't qualify for the Cologne 2015 Major.
"Yeah throughout this tournament they have had their ups and downs and this most certainly is the biggest down of them all.
They're not gonna be heading over for the Major."
And he'd go on to miss the Cluj-Napoca Major when he left HellRaisers before the qualifier.
And during all this, you'd only see one thing being written about Dosia.
At this point, Dosia had never acknowledged the meme on social media.
But he had bigger things to worry about, he was forming a new CS:GO team HS.GG.
In late December HS.GG qualified for the CIS Minor for the Columbus Major and were quickly picked up by Gambit Esports.
Naturally, the news post was flooded with references to the "sex god" meme. The meme spiked in popularity again when Gambit won the CIS Minor.
And then spiked again when they qualified for the Major.
Dosia finally had a CS:GO career back on track.
But it didn't matter,
his social media feeds were still filled with references to the "sex god" meme. A meme that its heart, was meant to mock him.
From the gif to the caricature, and especially the term "sex god" itself,
the meme was designed to mock Dosia's less-than-sex-god appearance.
Regardless of how Dosia felt about the meme, it was out of his control.
At least until he revealed his signature sticker for the Columbus Major. He signed it "X God."
It was a variation of the original "sex god" meme, but it was different.
He was taking control of it on his own terms. Five days later, Gambit released a video featuring an attractive
Russian girl who is definitely Dosia's girlfriend,
featuring plenty of fan service and titillation. And two days later, Gambit released another video featuring an
"interviewer" asking "random people" if they knew who the "X God" was. Which, of course, featured more pretty Russian girls telling us they knew
exactly who he is.
"X God?"
"Dosia." "Dosia." "Dosia."
The videos were cheesy, exploitative and corny. And Dosia himself initially wasn't fond of them being filmed.
But both videos picked up over three million combined views on YouTube.
Dosia and Gambit took the meme and poured gasoline on it,
but they did it by making it their own. From there, as Dosia who became a bigger presence in CS:GO,
so too did the persona of the X God.
The meme spiked in popularity when Gambit competed in the Columbus Major. And when they achieved the Legend status at the Cologne 2016 Major.
And then again when they maintained their Legend status with a win over FaZe Clan at the Atlanta 2017 Major.
But the biggest ever spike came later when Dosia and company won the Krakow Major,
thanks in large part to Dosia's incredible, 200 IQ grenade.
(Casting)
Two months later, at the height of the X God meme's popularity
Dosia, betrayed the persona by marrying his actual real-life girlfriend.
2017 was probably the most important year of both Dosia's career and his life.
But it put a bit of a damper on his playboy alter-ego.
And then at the most recent Major in Boston, Gambit failed to defend their title and retain their Legend status.
(Casting)
"Fnatic 16 to destroy the defending Major champions and ends their run here, I don't know if you want to call it a run."
Gambit have yet to find a strong fifth player to fill the hole left by ex-captain Zeus, and they're a big question mark heading
into the upcoming London Major. Despite that Dosia's legacy remains strong.
He's the first, and only, russian CS:GO player to win a Major.
He's one of the biggest prize earners in CS:GO history.
And he's transformed a meme meant to mock him into a rallying cry for his true believers.
"That's what I'm talking about, look at that. That is beautiful, almost as beautiful as the man himself."

Mitosis vs. Meiosis: Side by Side Comparison - Duration: 6:35.
Captions are on! Click CC at bottom right to turn off.
You can find us on Twitter (@AmoebaSisters) and Facebook!
In biology, there are often vocabulary terms that sound pretty similar.
Chromosome. Chromatid. Chromatin.
Transcription. Translation.
Mitosis. Meiosis.
You probably have encountered this.
When I was first learning about mitosis and meiosis, I learned them both separately first.
And then I tried to figure out what was the same about them, what was different, why did
they both matter?
I would try to compare the stages by flipping through images.
You know what would have helped me?
A side by side comparison.
And that's what this video is.
We assume you already have a background of mitosis and meiosis---if not take a look at
our videos on them---but this video is a side by side comparison.
Presented in a split screen.
Mitosis on the left.
Meiosis on the right.
Both of these processes, along with the cytokinesis that follows them to split the cytoplasm,
are involved in making new cells.
Mitosis results in body cells.
Meiosis results in sperm and egg cells, otherwise knows as the fancy term, gametes.
Before we start mitosis and meiosis, let's look at what you start with.
Your starting cell in both mitosis and meiosis is diploid, written here as 2n.
That means it has 2 sets of chromosomes---in humans, that's including one set of 23 chromosomes
from mom and one set of 23 chromosomes from dad.
46 chromosomes total in humans.
During interphase, the cell duplicates the chromosomes.
When you duplicate 46 chromosomes, you still say there are 46 chromosomes as the newly
duplicated portion is still attached at the centromere region---but there are actually
92 chromatids.
Interphase isn't part of mitosis or meiosis, but it's a really important phase because
it duplicates chromosomes before we get started.
Just to point out, it's really hard to draw 46 chromosomes which is how many humans have.
We're going to use 6 chromosomes in our diagrams when we illustrate what's happening
because it's much easier to draw and visualize.
Oh and just a fun fact: some insects have 6 chromosomes.
Like mosquitoes.
Unfortunately, I am not a fan of mosquitoes.
But mosquitoes do mitosis and meiosis too.
When learning the stages, we give the acronym PMAT which is helpful for understanding the
stages.
Both mitosis and meiosis go through these stages, but meiosis goes through them twice
and therefore has a number next to each PMAT stage.
We're going to show some basic events for each PMAT stage, but please know there is
way more detail to explore than what we can include in this quick video.
Prophase in mitosis.
Remember that "pro" can mean "before" and this stage comes before the others.
The chromosomes are visible; in fact, we say they're condensing which means they are
thickening.
Prophase I in meiosis.
Happening here too, but the chromosomes are actually going to match up with their homologous
pairs.
The word homologous means that the chromosomes are approximately the same size and that they
contain the same types of genes in the same locations.
With each pair, one came from mom and one came from dad.
In this formation, chromosomes can transfer their genetic information and exchange it
between each other.
It's called crossing over!
It can make for what we call recombinant chromosomes.
Metaphase in mitosis.
The nuclear envelope which had surrounded the nucleus was already disassembled before
metaphase started.
For metaphase, I like to remember the M for middle because in this stage the chromosomes
line up in the middle of the cell in a single file line.
Metaphase I in meiosis.
The chromosomes are in the middle as well, but they're still going to be in pairs in
the middle of the cell so it's not a single file line.
Anaphase in mitosis.
I like to think as the A is for "away."
The chromatids are pulled away by the work of the spindles.
They are moving to the opposite sides of the cell.
Anaphase I in meiosis.
Same thing but in this case, it's the chromosomes- not chromatids- being pulled away to opposite
sides of the cell.
Telophase in mitosis and telophase I in meiosis.
The chromosomes are at the complete opposite ends and new nuclei are forming on each side
to make these two new cells.
And they are starting to surround the chromosomes on both sides as this will eventually form
2 cells.
Cytokinesis follows to split the cytoplasm to complete the actual dividing
of the cell.
So at the end of mitosis and cytokinesis, we end with two identical, diploid cells.
In humans, they would both have 46 chromosomes.
This is great for organism growth---growing requires making more cells after all---or
replacing damaged cells.
After completing meiosis I and cytokinesis, we have two haploid cells, and they're not
identical because of that crossing over during prophase I. Meiosis is also not done.
Meiosis must go on.
On to meiosis II!
Prophase II.
Chromosomes condensing in both cells.
It's not going to be as eventful as it was in prophase I because they are not going to
have homologous pairs and crossing over.
Metaphase II.
M for middle, but this time, the chromosomes are in a single file line.
Similar to how metaphase looked in mitosis.
Anaphase II.
Think A for away.
This time, though, it's actually the chromatids that are getting pulled away.
Telophase II.
Chromosomes are at the complete opposite ends and new nuclei are forming on each side to
make new cells.
Cytokinesis will follow meiosis II to completely split the cytoplasm.
We are now finished with meiosis: and we end with four non-identical cells.
Gametes.
Males makes sperm cells in meiosis and females make egg cells in meiosis.
These gametes are haploid, meaning they have half the number of chromosomes as the original
starting cell.
In the case of humans, the resulting cells would each have 23 chromosomes.
By the way, when a sperm and egg cell combine, it results into a diploid cell, a fertilized
egg otherwise known as a zygote, which will then start a series of divisions using mitosis
to give rise to a brand new organism.
Well, that's it for the Amoeba Sisters, and we remind you to stay curious!
