Weeping down upon the underworld to smash gangland comes the friend of the unfortunate, enemy of criminals. Mysterious, all-powerful character, a problem to the police. But a crusader for law in reality Dan Garrett, a rookie patrolman, loved by everyone but suspected by none of being the Blue Beetle. As the Blue Beetle he hides behind a strange mask in a suit of imperitable blue-chained armor, flexible as silk but stronger than steel. Today's episode of the Blue Beetle is entitled Blasting the Dynamite Rings. A band of desperate underworld characters have started a reign of terrorism throughout the city. Their motive is wholesale burglary. Will they succeed in forcing the authorities to exceed their demands? Can they successfully defy the forces of law and order? Or will the Blue Beetle checkmate their efforts and bring their leader to justice? As our story opens, patrolman Dan Garrett, a rookie cop who operates as the Blue Beetle, has stopped for a little early morning chat with his friend and advisor Dr. Fran before reporting for duty. Well Danny, what assignment has the commissioner given you in this new drag? I don't know yet. I hope it's something exciting. You'll probably get your wish. You and Mannegan always get plenty of action. What do you suppose is back of these dynamite rings, Doc? Three this week already. It's very strange. Fantastic, in fact. What can these racketeers hope to gain? Blame the final. Looks as if they were trying to scare the authorities into meeting some exorbitant demand of theirs. But surely the police can apprehend the ringleaders. Believe me, if I get a chance I'll run them to earth. If I can't do it as Dan Garrett, I'll do it as the Blue Beetle. So what's that? It sounded like an explosion over on the west side. Someone's up front and you'll start on Ghosty. Excuse me. Oh, hello, Doc. Is Dan Garrett here? Hello, Officer Mannegan. Yes, Danny's here. He was just a bit... Well, what's up, Mannegan? Me and you have been assigned to the west side to investigate them explosions. I thought I heard one just now. That's right. Come on. I got the police car outside. Let's get going. Okay. So long, Doc. Let's go, Mannegan. What's up, Mr.... That's the furniture factory that blew up. Furniture? Yeah. I heard somebody say it was bombed. That's the fork this week. Come on, Mannegan. Let's see if we can help. There may still be some people in that burning building. Right after you, my lad. I'm going to check the cellar first. Take it easy down there, Danny. The floor's overhead may cave in any minute. I'll have to take that kid. If somebody does hear in the cellar, he's either dead or overcome by smoke. Give me a lift. I can't get down to you, Danny. The fire's between us now. Can you throw your coat down to me? Well, that's right. Wait a minute. Here it comes. You got it? Okay. I'm going to bring this guy up on my back. I'm using your coat as a hood. You better wait until I can get the fireman in here with the horses. There's no time for that. I think I can make it alone. I'm coming down, Danny. Wait for me. No, Mannegan. No, you were supposed to have us written down alive.  Here I come. Take it easy, Danny. Steady now, boy.  Don't make it stop. The floor's giving way. Here's the hand. I got you. Look out, Danny. He's coming around. Yeah, he'll be all right. Look, he's opening his eyes. I'm sure it's a brave cop. Yeah, Danny. Danny, are you all right? Can I get the old man out? Oh, you did that, boy. Thanks to you. I didn't do nothing. You've done it all. Mannegan, if you hadn't been there, give me a pull. You'll be all right after a rest and plenty of fresh air in your lungs. Here comes the ambulance for the old man you saved. Why don't you take a ride along with him? Maybe they'll give you a bed and a good meal, too, at the hospital. Now, I think I'll take the ride. That bed and meal can wait. I want to talk to that old man when he regains consciousness. He may give me a clue to that dynamite. I can't be able to finish a clue as to the dynamite gang. Will Danny continue his investigation as patrolman Dan Garrett, or as the Blue Beetle? Let's look in on the mayor of the city to see if we can discover what is back of these mysterious explosions. Telegram for you, sir. No, thanks. But wait a minute, George. There may be an answer. Yes, sir. Hmm.  Sign the octopus. Say, what is this, a joke? It is. Someone has a perverted sense of humor. Why, this is preposterous. I never heard of anything so brazen. What are you going to do, sir? Get me the commissioner on the phone. Yes. Get the police commissioner on the phone, the mayor calling. Thank you.  Not for me, but for my boy.  Since his mother died, he said nobody but me to look after him. Hello. Hello, commissioner. It's honor to mayor calling. Here you are, sir. Hello, commissioner. Hello, Mr. Mayor. What's on your mind? I want to read you a telegram I just received a moment ago. Where is it, George? Oh, thanks. Listen to this, commissioner.  And it's signed the octopus. That's bad. Who is the octopus? As far as we can discover, he's a power in the underworld. Our best men have been working secretly to track him down, but so far we've had no success. Well, I want you to assign one of your best men to guard my son. I'll assign Mike Manigan on the job. He's the best I have. Good. I know him. What about you? You should have a bodyguard. Oh, never mind me. I can take care of myself. It's my son I'm worried about. Well, it'll be taken care of, Mr. Mayor. Okay, commissioner. As soon as you issue the necessary orders, I wish you'd drop over to my office. I'd like to discuss a plan of action to check make the octopus and his gang. In the meantime, Dan Garrett has talked with the old man whom he saved from the burning building. He learns that just before the explosion, the old man, who was the janitor of the factory, saw a bearded man with a lip disappearing up the stairs just outside the boiler room. Danny decides to keep an eye out for a bearded man with a lip. We next find him in the little apothecary shop of his friend and advisor, Dr. Franz. Well, what do you make of it, Danny? I think it's a diabolical plan of wholesale robbery, backed by terrorism and blackness. But I don't understand. How could any gang of thieves hope to... As I see it, the mastermind of this gang has a well-thought-out plan. First, his unholy crew terrorizes the city by a series of explosions. Yes. Then they plan to suddenly plunge the city into darkness one night. And while the blackout is on, they'll systematically rob jewelry stores, banks, and fur storage plants. What makes you think that? The mayor got a telegram today warning him that unless he ordered the city's power supply shut off, something unpleasant will happen to him or his family. But that's preposterous. I never heard of such unmitigated nerve. These men are desperate characters, and their chief is a cold-blooded fiend. What's the mayor doing about it? He's talked to the commissioner of police. The commissioner assigned mannequin to guard the mayor's young son. He's also ordered every known gang hang out in the city raided. Every racketeer big or small is to be arrested. Broaden for questioning. And what are you going to do? I'm going to put on my blue beetle armor and take a little trip down to the municipal power plant. I have a peculiar feeling the blue beetle will come to grips with some of that gang tonight. Out into the night spends a blue beetle in his super-dynamic speedster to save the city's power plant from destruction and prevent wholesale burglary throughout the city. From another point, a fast motor car filled with dark-visaged men is speeding toward the same destination. Will they meet? Or will one outfeed the other to prevent or commit a crime? As the blue beetle nears his destination, he sees another car full up in front of the power plant. That's a suspicious-looking car there. Hmm, several men are getting out. Tough-looking bunch. There's one with a beard and a limp. That's my man all right. And there's the watchman coming up to me. All right, boys. All right, now make it snappy. Rate him here.  Don't worry about that, Pop. We'll fix it for you. Well, here's the dynamo room. And here's the stock. Okay, tie him up and put him over there in a corner. Come on, Slut, I give me a lift with this photo. Okay, Gibby, here we go. Hey, Gibby, what is the deal with that sledgehammer? Back of it. I'll be over to help you after we stop this. Blue Beetle. Yes, the Blue Beetle. Hey, there's the Blue Beetle.  Put down that sledge or I'll blast you. Yo and who else? Hold up, you guys, for your livelihood next week. I can handle this smug. Hello. Let me see you handle this one.  You can't injure the Blue Beetle. Now I'm coming after you right back there. Come on, let's beat it, Slut I. No, we've got to fight it out. You know the octopus. This Blue Beetle's only a guy in a masquerade custom. Let's get him. Gibby, give me that wrench. Here we go. Give me that wrench, Slut I. Here is this Blue Beetle right on the spoon. Your aim is bad, Slut I. You should have ducked my let first. But my aim ain't Blue Beetle. Oh, gotcha, that's time, Blue Beetle. Come on, Muncie, I got him. I got the Blue Beetle. Yeah, good work, Jimpty. That's tossing a hammer all right. Yeah. You got him right in the eye. Boy, he certainly packs an awful wallop in that left of his. Yeah, you sure got a left in your jaw. Hey, what do we do with him? He ain't dead. Tie him up and take him out to the island after we wreck this place. The octopus will take care of the Blue Beetle. Okay. Listen, slap some life into Slut I there while I plant a bomb under that dynamo over there. Sure. Hey, Slut I, snap out of it.  We're getting out of here. No, what happened? Did the place blow up? No, the Blue Beetle sucked ya. Where is he? Lying there, Jimpty plugged him. Oh, good work. Where's Jimpty? Plantin' a dynamite under those dynamos. Here he comes now. Come on, let's go. I lit the fuse. It won't be long now. Here, here. Give me a hand with the Blue Beetle. Right, let's make it snappy.  What about the watchman? He'll have to take his chances. We ain't got room for him. Okay, come on, let's go. I cut a short food. What will happen to the Blue Beetle when the octopus gets him in his power? Will that be the end of the Blue Beetle? How can the police protect the citizens of this vast city against the depredations of this ruthless band of arch criminals?


Alright guys what is going on Lux here from the empty journey helping you succeed on your medical journey with less stress this video I'm super excited because it is a topic that I'm a super geek about which is being productive and planning your day for ultimate efficiency Now get this question from a lot of my students and readers and subscribers, which is Lux How do you stay so productive in medical school or if I'm a pre-med?

Like I people act like I'm the only one that can do many things and kind of have control over my day I know you guys can too if you just understand the the proper habits that you need to do to structure your day To reach ultimate productivity So I was gonna make a video where I gave you the spiel and give you the tips But I recently did make the video where I show you my own Schedule on my Google Calendar and how I structure it and I did it for my video course for the pre-meds that I've been making Which I'll link down below but instead of making a whole another video I thought I'd just give you a sneak peek of that video So understand that it is in the context of the course But I think that regardless if you're a pre-med or if you are in med school I think that the video will be super helpful to help you understand how I structure my day how I Recommend anyone structure their day and you're going to be able to not only have time to study But you're gonna have time for you and I think that's really what everyone's kind of wants out wants to have time for So hopefully you guys enjoy this if you did I mean obviously check out the course down below if you are a pre-med But otherwise use the tips from this video to help you become more productive. No more babbling Let's get to the intro and then you will see me on the other side of my computer talking from the course What is going on guys? This is going to be the first video and how to be productive as a pre-med This is the second time I'm recording this video So let's fingers crossed that we get it right on the first or the second try now But the first video is going to be kind of how to create your foundation What principles do you need to know in terms of being productive and scheduling your day? That way the rest of the principles I give you throughout this course are going to be effective So what I'm going to show you is I'm going to show you I'm going to go back to when I was a college student How I was structured my day and then now I'm going to fast forward to today I'm going to show you kind of what my day looks like and they're pretty similar So that means I use the same principles I use as a college student even now as a medical student to do a lot and do a lot of different activities without being overwhelmed So I use Google Calendar because it's very versatile and it's also very portable I can put it on my laptop and then have it on my phone if you guys want to have a physical calendar That's totally fine I still recommend doing it on the Google Calendar because you could do a lot You know, it's a lot quicker to but whatever you prefer but Essentially what you should do is let me let me go to the month first and show you there The first thing you should do is open up your month on your calendar or your you know Your planner and add in everything that you know is going to be there So those things include like important deadlines So this is when I was you know getting close to start sitting for the MCAT So when I needed to register for the MCAT all your FISC your exams So I have some tests here as well as important meetings doctors appointments things that you just can't miss out on Or you don't want to be late on so put those into your monthly calendar You know at the start of the semester what I like to do is I pulled out my syllabi for each class you know for each of my classes and I would just quickly add in all the quizzes and all the tests that way I would know That's an exam here and then you know as I'm going to go over in the study section But I would start structuring my reviews the week before very strategically because I knew the exam would be next Friday So put these in your monthly and then go to your weekly. I Know this looks a little bit overwhelming, but it actually has a very clear structure to it And it's actually the biggest Trick that I used to stay as productive as I am So the first thing is similar to your monthly add in all your required things that are repetitive on a weekly basis So like your classes are a great example, you know what your time your classes are going to be Generally, so you're just going to add them at the time slots that they occur and then Google calendar is great This is why I love it is that you can go in and if you know you have a class on Tuesdays and Thursdays for the whole week From 9 30 to 11 You can just replicate the process to where it shows up weekly and that way you don't have to make it every single day Or every single week you can just say weekly on Tuesdays and Thursdays until the end of the semester so That's that add in all your classes and then The next step is to add another kind of weekly recurrent activity. So if you're in organizations and you have meetings You know, those are things that you definitely want to add so I had a meeting down here pretty late So this way I would block off those times and make sure I wasn't trying to be productive, you know Going to another important activity. These times were blocked off for me And I didn't study or anything there in those slots. So add your classes add your meetings And then add in on the weekly basis add in anything important for example something that just may come up So again since I was applying for medical school My school was doing a personal statement workshop. So I went there between 1 and 2 or I knew it was coming up So I added it at the start of the week to this time slot to make sure I didn't do anything else during that time The rest of the time is what I like to call your repetitive structure time. So Excuse me guys This is the time of the week where you know, you want to work during those hours But you may not exactly have a task just yet. So for example, I know on Wednesdays I wanted to work during these time slots and so I would just call these my work time and During, you know, this week I didn't specifically assign myself a task during that time But for example on Sundays, this was also my work time But what I did is before the Sunday I replaced this work time with specific tasks that I wanted to do and what hours I wanted to spend doing them That way I knew, you know, okay, you have physics homework that you need to work on on Sunday morning So wake up at 6 and get ready to start your physics homework from 7 to 8 30 I gave myself a time slot and we're going to go over these principles later But where I had to work and be efficient during these periods because I knew at 8 30 I needed to move and start working on something else. So this kept me efficient I always knew kind of what the end was versus like working on this forever and then realizing I still have homework for other classes Um, so use your work time and then when the week comes or when you're planning it replace them With specific activities that you want to work during those time slots That way, you know, it's starting to finish So I've gotten my work time. I've added, you know, other homeworks, you know, I was studying for my MCAT So I also made this my work time slot right here And I made the whole block just for the MCAT nothing else And then the final thing is to kind of add in your I guess this comes before your work time is you want to put your repetitive like personal sanity things And you can see that I kind of called in personal sanity here Is that things like working out and spending time with friends a tv show like those are totally fine for you to have in your schedule Just make sure that they're blocked off Um, that way you don't schedule yourself to study during that time And also if you're spending like eight hours on a monday watching tv, then that's probably not personal sanity time It's also very visual and I like that. So I knew I wanted to work out on, you know, thursday evenings and I'll fast forward to When I'm a med student right now you can see kind of how I scheduled my workout time So this is guys a great structure because then all the time slots that are open for me to do other things I can add an extra work time. I can add in, you know A fun activity if I say yes to a dinner with a friend I'll block it off here and make sure I don't schedule myself to study Um, so this is kind of how I would structure my day. So every day I knew what time I needed to wake up What time I needed to start, you know, I could sleep in on a monday not so much on a wednesday and the sunday So creating the structure is huge. Now, let me fast forward to Today or this coming week and I kind of already scheduled my Next week. So I'm going to kind of show you now what I do as a med student and again, it's not that different I have repetitive tasks. So I'm on an anesthesia rotation and these are the hours I usually show up To be in the lr and then I have other tasks. So for example I'm doing the empty journey and currently since I'm Um, still making videos for the course that you guys are watching I have it structured and I wake up at ridiculous times. Most of you guys know that And so I wake up and I do a lot of these video contents in the morning Um, and then, you know, I do youtube videos aside from the course So I have a specific time of the week. I like to do those Um, other things that I like to do for the blog is obviously creating my content writing the blog Post and so this kind of tells you like there's a lot of hours spent in it. It can be really overwhelming I'm not going to easily quit but I have structured times in my medical school life Where I do them and I'm not like, you know, studying for other medical school stuff then Similar, you know, my workouts are scheduled. I know what times of the the days on different, you know What times of the days throughout the week I'll be working out So I don't structure anything during these time slots And that way it's great, you know, for me to make sure I get my workout get my fitness in Without impeding on medical school stuff And then other things that, you know, I'll add so like my sanity time I Go to church every sunday or every other sunday depending on what week it is So I make sure I block that time that way. I'm not booking myself for anything else And then this coming week is huge because I have a board exam all in friday. So I'm going to add specific work times that I want to make sure I'm reviewing for it. So I don't fail So you can see that like my schedule isn't that different than when I was a pre-med different things are there But I'm doing, you know repetitive tasks Personal sanity tasks and then I'm adding in time blocks So that way if I wanted to do something next thursday or next saturday evening, I have time to do it if you know Everything else looks correct. So this is my basis on how I recommend you guys go ahead and schedule your day schedule your months Schedule your hours because you're going to be much more productive. You know what's going to come. You know what you have to do It's not as overwhelming, you know, the calendar may look overwhelming But each day you have a plan of attack, you know from 9 to 10. I'm doing this from 10 to 12 I'm doing this I'm taking a break and then get back to work at 2 o'clock Being this productive really has its benefits.
