Oh, waiter. You see? I'll have a vegetable salad with cottage cheese, some toasted crackers, and a bottle of cold, perhaps blue ribbon. Yes, sir. Finest beer served. Anywhere. From Hollywood, perhaps blue ribbon. Finest beer served. Anywhere. Proudly presents... The Hollywood Screen Directors present a footnote to Valor. Fort Apache, starring John Wayne and Ward Bond, and introduced by the director of the film, John Ford. Ever since the infant days of motion pictures, a kind of violent chain reaction has been exploding in Hollywood. The source of this rather awesome force is our guest screen director tonight. His explosions have taken the form of such brilliantly directed films as The Informer, Stagecoach, How Green Was My Valley, and tonight's story, Fort Apache. Ladies and gentlemen, the director, Mr. John Ford. Thank you. I don't know what I'd call Fort Apache an explosion. If I were translating it into sound, I'd say it was a bugle called brave and distant and a little sad. An echo of the cavalry regiments had galloped to meet adventure on our western plains. Now, here's our film story for the first time on the air, starring John Wayne in his original role of Captain York and Ward Bond as Colonel Thursday, Fort Apache. This is the story of Fort Apache, of the regiment, the officers and men who manned her. How they lived, how some of them died. Fort Apache was the last frontier, a tiny cavalry outpost in the heart of Indian infested country. My name is Captain Kirby York. I'd been through enough Indian campaigning to have a healthy respect for the Apache, both as a fighter and as a man. Colonel Owen Thursday, the new commanding officer, was a career man out of headquarters in Washington with a lot of strange ideas about frontier discipline, military science, and the lowly savage Indian. Gentlemen, I have been ordered to assume command of Fort Apache and to aid the Indian agent Meacham in putting down the uprising caused by the Apache chief, Cochise. While some of our regiments are leading well publicized campaigns against the great Indian nations, we are asked merely to ward off a few cowardly digger Indians. The Apaches, sir, are hardly digger Indians. You would scarcely compare them with the Sioux, Captain York. No, Colonel, I wouldn't. The Sioux raided into Apache territory once. You could follow the Sioux retreat by the bones of their dead. We'll discuss that some of the time, Captain. The immediate point is that Cochise and his Apaches have left the reservation. Our orders are to get them back. Sir, no troop or squadron or regiment can keep an Apache on a reservation unless he wants to stay there. Five years ago, we made a treaty with Cochise and his Apaches stayed on the reservation in peace. For how long, Captain? Until the Indian agent Meacham was sent out by the Indian ring. He cheated them, degraded them, until they couldn't take it anymore. Cochise broke his treaty. Yes, rather than stay here and see his nation wiped out. The political aspects of the situation are not concerned me, Captain York. We have a military job to do, which I am sure we will accomplish with glory. This is hardly a country for glory, Colonel, but I wish you luck, sir. Any questions? No questions, sir. For some reason, the few Apaches who had remained on the reservation were extremely quiet. This was unusual. It worried me. But evidently, it didn't worry Colonel Thursday. For about a week later, I was detailed to escort his daughter out riding for an inspection of the Mesa. The race to head that way, Miss Thursday. Why not? This is Indian country, and I'm responsible for you. Oh, I'm not afraid. Oh, oh, look, Captain, down there. Smoke. Is it an Indian signal? No, not a signal. That's where our telegraph wires run through the Fort Grant. Oh. I've got to ride down this slope and find out. Can you get back alone? Alone? No, no, I'm going with you. Here. Easy now.  It's a wagon burning. Yeah, it's the one we sent out on the patrol, the telegraph line. Don't look. Stay here.  We've got to get back to the Fort. Colonel Thursday, sir. Now what, Captain York? Repair wagon. Burned. And the troopers? Spread eagle down the wheels. Roasted. Oh, no care. Where did it happen? Near Blue Mesa, sir. They cut the telegraph wires. Captain Collingwood, hand me that map. Yes, sir. Now show me the place, York. Here, sir, on this low spot between the hills. Captain York, send out a wagon of detail to repair the wires and bring back the bodies. Yes, sir. Sergeant Mulcahy. Yes, sir. Assemble a platoon from Company A. A platoon. I set a detail, Captain, an officer and four men. But those Apaches may still be around, Colonel. I am running a command, not a debating society. Captain York, you will personally take the detail and leave it once. Very good, sir. If I know Apaches, Colonel, you're sending those men to a certain death. I know what I am doing, Collingwood. And now you assemble a platoon immediately. You mean the platoon is going to trail the wagon? Correct, at a striking distance. Surely, Collingwood, even you have heard of the trap as a military weapon. Yes, sir. I don't like this, Captain. Send us out like this alone. Neither do I. What do you think, sir? Do you think the devils will be waiting for us? Can't tell. Apaches are tricky. Take it easy now. The wire breaks just around this bend. Right. Oh! Right there. Mother of mercy. Two of our own lads. Burned alive. Where you devils, you motherless... Quiet, Maltese. They've been back. They've stripped off the men's shoes. The barbarians. They'll make them pay with me own hands. All right, men, quick. Get out those blankets and that wire and work fast. I know Apaches. They'll be back. Hey, Pete. There we go. Beaufort, get up on that pole and fix that wire break. All right, we're going. I'll... I'll take care of our men myself. I'm going up that rock and have a look. They're around here. I can feel it. Any sign of them? Nothing yet. But hurry it up. I know we're here. Get out of here. Put the wire break. It's not fixed yet.  We haven't got a third of them. The outlaw's bad. We're like clay pigeons out here in the open. Master, we cannot run them. It's our only chance. Playhouse production of Fort Apaches, starring John Wayne and Ward Bond and introduced by the director of the film, Mr. John Ford, in Atlantic City. The boardwalk is crowded with strollers. You, foot weary and breathless from a marathon walk, pause to wipe the perspiration from your forehead. The salt air is cooling, but somehow it doesn't satisfy your thirst. There must be a place nearby where you can... Wait a second. What's that little blue sign in the cafe window? Oh, brother. Papsed blue ribbon. Finest beer served. Anywhere. Yes, during these hot August days, you're just one of millions of men all over America to whom that Papsed blue ribbon sign means welcome relief. Or Papsed blue ribbon does something more than quench your thirst. It gives you taste. Blue ribbon taste. The kind of taste you can't get anywhere else in the world, except in that Papsed blue ribbon bottle.  Yes, you hear it everywhere, in Atlantic City and Appleton and Ann Arbor in Atlanta. Papsed blue ribbon. Finest beer served. Anywhere. Your taste will tell you why. Back to our screen director's playhouse production of Fort Apache, John Wayne and Ward Bond. What was left of Diablo's Rating Party after the battle, we took back to the reservation at Claw Springs. But that didn't solve the problem. They were just a handful. There was still coaches in the entire Apache nation across the Rio Bravo and Mexico. But right here at Claw Springs was the root of the trouble. The unscrupulous Indian agent, Meacham. Mr. York, how good to see you. Captain York, Meacham. Oh, yes, of course. You soldier boys in your title. And this is Colonel Thursday. Ah, another exile in the wilderness. Mr. Meacham, a band of Indians left this reservation. Yes, the ungrateful dogs. I treat them well.  Why are you... Giving them whiskey instead of beef. Trinkets instead of blankets. What are you... Coaches did the only thing a decent man could do. He left and took his people with him across the Rio Bravo into Mexico. Why, he broke his treaty and I demand you soldier boys bring him back by force, if necessary. Any demands you wish to make, Mr. Meacham, will be made through official channels. Well, I only... Captain York, what's in those boxes? They're marked books, sir. More likely cheap whiskey. No, no, he's lying. I'll open them and see, Captain. Mulkay. Right, sir. You're at the colonel. Here, here, what are you doing? You have no right to... Mr. Meacham, miracle, sir. The books have turned into whiskey in a barrel. I have a government license to keep a medicinal supply of... What shall we do with the books, Colonel? Destroy them, Mulkay. Yes, sir. And what about these Winchester rifles, sir? Destroy them, too. No, no, you can't. This is private property. You have no right to...  If it were in my power, I would hang you from the nearest tree and leave your carcass for the buzzards. But as a representative of the United States government, you are entitled to the protection of my command. But that is all. Good day, sir. You sent for me, Colonel? Sit down, Captain York. Yes, sir. Now, about this coat cheese. We've got to bring him back. In six campaigns, he's out generalist, out porous, and out runners. That's just the point. There are enough troops in the territory to make him come back, but one man, a man he trusts, might persuade him. Cochise knows me.  Assuming you found Cochise, his men would cut you to pieces. That's possible, sir, but I've never lied to Cochise, and if you'll assure him decent treatment for his people, I... A carbine against his spine might be more persuasive. Oh, I'd have to go unarmed, sir. Have you forgotten what happened to the men on the repair wagon? Well, I can't fight my way to Cochise. Other men have tried that. If we could manage to get him back to United States soil. Hmm. Will you have my permission, Captain? How many men will you need? One, sir. Sergeant Beaufort. He knows the country. He was born in Mexico. I'd like to leave it once, sir. Proceed, Captain, and take your sergeant. I hope you make it. Three days, Sergeant Beaufort, and we haven't seen a sign of an Apache. Yes, but they have seen us. You can be sure of that. Captain, look. We'll go over against that hill. A signal mirror. Another one answering from this side. Yeah, they're here all right. We're between them. Come on, Beaufort, smile. He's too late to do anything else. They must be camped right above us. But it's not always right above us. Look up. Look up on the rocks. Holy smokes. Covered with the patches. Both sides of the past, thousands. Looks like they were expecting us. Keep smiling, Beaufort. We're going in. Captain, look at those rifles they've carried. Winchester 7-shot repeaters. Our friend, Meacham. Looks like every chief in the tribe is here. I'm straight ahead, Beaufort. He's that guy? That's Cochise in front. This is close enough. Good luck, sir. When a start is, Cochise, we come in peace. When a stab this. Captain York, you got back. Well? Cochise has crossed the river, Colonel. He's coming in with all his people. He wants to talk peace. He's back on American soil? Yes, sir. Good. Captain, the regiment moves out at dawn. The regiment? Well, I promised Cochise we'd meet him alone, unarmed. You and me and Meacham. Why Meacham? He insists Meacham be present. Very well. You will prepare your troops to march at dawn. But Cochise will think I've tricked him. Exactly. We have tricked him. We've tricked him into returning to American soil, and I intend to see that he stays here. Colonel, I gave Cochise my word. Your word to a breach-clouded savage, to an illiterate, uncivilized murderer and treaty-breaker? There is no question of honor, sir, between an American officer and Cochise. There is to me, Colonel. You can't send out the regiment. Captain York, so long as you are in my command, you will obey my orders. The regiment will march at dawn. Is this approximately where you were to meet Cochise, Captain York? Just about. All the troops. Ho! Captain, I propose to deploy our men, sending two troops to the north and one to the east. The Apaches, sir, are neither north nor east, and they're not in their encampment. If you'd been watching the dust swirls to the south, as most of us were, you'd know they're over there, just coming over the ridge. That's Cochise now, sir. They're about four to our one. Most of them with Winchester rifles. Do we talk, Colonel, or fight? You seem easily impressed by numbers, Captain. However, I'll honor your word to Cochise. Where is Mr. Meacham? Meacham! Here, sir, at your command. Mr. Meacham, we are riding out to talk with Cochise. Oh, he's not the kind you can talk to, Colonel. I will. You will accompany us, Mr. Meacham. Come on, Captain. Ha! Take over, York. I have the honor, illustrious chief, of presenting the commander of our regiment, Colonel Thursday. We have come to talk. The Apache is a great nation, proud, never conquered, but is not good for nation always to fight. Young men die, old ones hungry, so I bring my people to reservation. Then this man come make trouble. He means you, Meacham. He lies. Evil man who make my people bad. He's worse than war. He stab my children. No.  No, it's not true. Send him away, and we will talk peace. If not, there will be more war. Are you threatening us? Colonel, don't interrupt. It's an insult. And for each of us you kill.  Silence! I did not come here to be threatened. Cochise, I find you without honor. That government which I represent orders you to return to the reservation by dawn or we will attack. It's getting late, Colonel. What do you think? I think they've had their chance. Now it's time they had their lesson. Hand me your binoculars, Captain. Yes, sir. I don't see them. Not a one down in the pass. There, there, sir, but not down in the pass, up on the rim rock. How can you know that? Because if I were Cochise, that's where I'd take up my position. What about that dust cloud at the far end of the pass? An Apache trick, sir. Women and children dragging Mesquite to make us right through that narrow pass into an ambush. Very ingenious, Captain. You make me suspect that you're Cochise studied under Alexander the Great at least. Gentlemen, mount your troops. We charge through the pass in a column of fours. Mounted in fours? Colonel, that'd be suicide. I tell you, they're up in those rocks on either side of the pass. It's an ambush. Captain York, there is no room for this regiment for a coward. You will remain on the ridge in safety with the supply wagons. Yes, sir. A charge in fours? Thursday was insane. I took Sergeant Mulcage with me and wheeled the wagons back up onto the ridge. Roll up! The regiment started forward at the half-gallon. The faces of the men sat and grimmed. There they go, Captain. The fullness led to the other soldiers. The A company. Down into the pass. They didn't have a chance, but they kept charging through. B company. C company. Horses. Men. Racing. Shooting. Tumbling crazily as they fell screaming. Captain, look! Colonel Thursty's been hit. Keep me covered, Mulcage. Still Thursday. York, help me on your horse. Here. Follow me, Colonel. I'm dug in on the ridge top. No, Captain.  I must rejoin my command. There is no command. It's wiped out. We're all that's left of it.  Us and the wagons on the ridge. Then back to your ridge, Captain. We'll charge in fours. Come back! Wiped out. Every man. The Temmels. The murder of Temmels. It's all over. Here they come. A whole Apache nation. We've got a ray for the peace. Forty rounds, Captain. No, wait. Make them coat. Every one for the men that's gone. No, Sergeant. Hold your fire. Coaches is raiding out to us. Here. Take my gun. But, Captain... I gave Coaches my word. I'll meet him unarmed. Colonel, say Coaches without honor. White Colonel, dead. I give you your flag. For a moment, Coaches stared at me. Then he wheeled his horse, and like a great wind, the Apaches rode away. Yes, he gave us back our flag. The regimental guidon we'd carried into battle. Now the regiment of Fort Apache has been reformed. Their names are all changed. Those others haven't been forgotten, because they haven't died. They're living right out there. Tomorrow, when we take to the field, they'll be riding with us. Collingwood or Roark or Cagie, Boulevard, yes, and Thursday. Their names may change in their faces. But they're the regiment and the regular army. Now in 50 years from now. You have just heard the last act of Fort Apache. In a moment, our stars, John Wayne and Ward Bond, and screen director John Ford will return to the microphone. Out here in Hollywood, they sell maps to sightseers that show where the movie stars live. Now if you could only step inside those homes instead of just driving by, you would find that most of the picture people lead normal everyday lives, just like you and me. On these hot summer weekends, for instance, the chances are you'd find them out in the backyard under a shady tree with their neighbors and friends, playing gin rummy, or just chatting over bottles of cold, perhaps blue ribbon beer. Everything in perfect taste. Blue ribbon taste. And it's that blue ribbon taste that makes this internationally famous beer so popular here in Hollywood. We happen to have a movie star here in the studio who I think will verify that statement. The star of our radio program, Mr. John Wayne. John, is it true that perhaps blue ribbon is a big favorite in Hollywood? And I'd say it's quite popular. What do you mean, offhand? I mean, I have no way of knowing except that I see perhaps blue ribbon served in a lot of Hollywood homes. Well, do you serve it in your own home? I sure do. It's a good beer. Now, how about a word from the director of Fort Apache if Ward Bond will bring Pappy over here? What do you mean bring Pappy over here? That's the trouble with you, actors, just because I'm a director you think I'm afraid of a microphone. Well, Pappy? Well, I am, and that's why I'm going to say good night because Pappy speaks one of the world's greatest directors. Come on, Pappy. Good night, folks. Good night. Good night. A good night to you, John Wayne, Ward Bond and John Ford. Don't forget, tomorrow is the beginning of another weekend. Two whole days to relax and have fun. You'll be planning picnics and backyard barbecues. Just be sure there's plenty of perhaps blue ribbon cooling in your icebox. Tomorrow morning, ask your dealer for a case. In cans or bottles, perhaps blue ribbon is the finest beer served anywhere. Your taste will tell you why. Next week on Screen Directors Playhouse, perhaps blue ribbon presents Jezebel, starring Betty Davis. Fort Apache was presented through the courtesy of Arcusy Pictures, producers of Mighty Joe Young. John Wayne will be seen shortly as the star of the John Ford Arcusy production, she wore a yellow ribbon. Ward Bond will soon be seen in Paramount's new Bing Crosby picture, riding high. John Ford is currently directing the 20th century Fox production Front and Center, starring Dan Daly and Colleen Townsend. Included in tonight's cast were Sharon Douglas, Paul McVeigh, Tony Barrett, Eddie Fields, Pat McGeehan, Lou Merrill, and Don Stanley. Fort Apache was adapted for radio by Warren Lewis, and original music was composed and conducted by Henry Russell. Screen Directors Playhouse was produced by Howard Wiley with dramatic direction by Bill Karn. Portions of tonight's broadcast were transcribed. Listen again next week when PAPST Blue Ribbon presents Screen Directors Playhouse, production Jezebel, director William Weiler, star Betty Davis.

Hello. It's nice to be here. Thank you for joining this session. I'd like to talk today about a policy approach to resolving cybersecurity problems in the election process. One thing's for sure. After the coronavirus is no longer dominating the news, election security will come back to center stage. Big time. It's not a complicated subject that few it is a complicated subject that few people really understand, even election officials. So today I want to talk about the role that private sector companies play in the voting system, the vulnerabilities associated with their role and discuss a path forward from the legal and policy perspective. So election security. It's really a private sector problem. Election security, there, there, it is so many aspects of it are performed by private sector companies. There are many avenues for tampering with an election, including changing votes, causing machines to malfunction, altering voter registration records and disrupting equipment to be used that's used to check in voters. The private sector companies play a large role in these activities which we call the election process, the voter registration, the checking in the voting, the polling, the tabulating of the votes, all that is called the election process. And the private sector companies sell the voting machines and program them for most elections. Yes, they program them for each individual election in most jurisdictions. They register voters, they tally votes, and they report votes. And there are vulnerabilities associated with their role that most people don't understand. And I think that this is all something controlled by state and local election officials, and it is not. So today I want to talk about that path forward and how to solve this huge complicated problem. There are many avenues and for tampering with an election, including changing votes, causing machines to malfunction, altering voter registration records and disrupting equipment used to check in voters. Let's look at the vulnerabilities in the voting equipment. In 2005, Hari Hirstie performed the famous Hirstie hack and successfully altered votes in a one step hack that changed both central tabulator results and the voting machine results tape. It was the digital equipment of stuffing the ballot box. The election official who invited Hirstie to check the default acu vote optical scan voting machines said he wouldn't have been able to detect the change and would have certified the election. The bold is now on by Dominion voting systems. None of the vulnerabilities found by Hirstie were ever fixed. And these same machines are planned for use in 20 states in the 2020 election. Think about that. It's 2020 and he discovered this in 2005, 15 years later. That's crazy. A later model of the same voting machines with the same vulnerabilities was used in a hotly contested and disputed 2016 election between Stacey Abrams and Brian Kemp and Georgia. So many of these systems that are using these machines are using machines with these vulnerabilities. In recent elections, 99% of votes in the US were cast or counted on computers. And many of the core election systems, voter registration databases, election management systems, voting machines and vote counting systems are using aged computer equipment. The systems employ software that cannot longer be updated or patched. They include databases that have known vulnerabilities and they're managed by third party vendors where supply chain risks exist. This is a big problem. Let's look at the cyber attacks on these private vendors. In 2016, Russia's military intelligence service penetrated VR systems. These systems is the vendor that manages and handles all of the programming for the majority of the counties of Florida. And it handles all absentee ballots and early voting. We know of this penetration. Because an NSA contractor reality winner released a top secret report about it. And we later found out the FBI briefed election officials in Florida on a very secret basis. It was a year later that election officials around the country realized that Russia's military intelligence service had been penetrating VR systems and that perhaps their systems might also be vulnerable. In 2016 elections, electronic voter ID systems in several states went down in certain precincts. Now these are the systems that help identify a voter when they come into vote. And these technical glitches they called them in the machines called hours long waits for people who had come to the polls to vote. Those hours long waits, some voters were unable to wait and others could not vote before the polls closed. On election day in 2019, federal officials from law enforcement, Homeland Security and the intelligence community issued a joint statement declaring that our adversaries want to undermine our democratic institutions influence public sentiment and affect government policies. Russia, China, Iran, and other foreign malicious actors all will seek to interfere in the voting process or influence voter perceptions. Wow. And it's true. We have a serious problem. We have governments from outside the US trying to influence our democratic processes. And we have voting machines and voter ID systems and private sector companies that have not presented any level of security and assurance that their processes and systems have integrity and integrity and are confidential. So we have a US Election Assistance Commission. And this commission is supposed to, you know, help the election officials around the country. But it's perhaps the weakest link in the nation's voting system. The EAC is a bipartisan commission established by Congress in 2002. It maintains a national mail voter registration form. It accredits testing laboratories and certifies voting systems. And it serves as a national clearinghouse of information on election administration. In December 2016, Recorded Future reported that a Russian speaking hacker named Rasputin was selling access to the EAC systems on the internet. Rasputin had full admin access to the database and could upload any file he wanted. He had lists of voting machinery, test reports of their software, and knew where they were deployed. An EAC employee whose credentials had been compromised said if Rasputin had access to the database, he could access the server where the proprietary information is kept. The EAC keeps information about vulnerabilities in voting systems. Thus, a hacker who gets into the EAC could find out where the weak links are in the voting systems all around the country. So let's look at the voting machine companies and what role they have played in this.  Researchers and cyber experts have found multiple vulnerabilities in the most used voting machines that would enable an attacker to gain full access to a system, change configurations, and install a modified operating system without election officials knowing.  There are three primary vendors for voting machines. Electronic systems and software known as ESNS, Dominion voting systems, and Hart Intracevig. We know there are vulnerabilities in most of the voting machines, but very little is known about the security of these companies own IT systems. The companies that produce these voting machines that are supposed to maintain them and produce them and they are the underpinning of the core in our election process. Very little is known about the security of the companies that even manufacture these machines. Some voting machines are optical scanners. Some have touchscreen voting. Some use QR codes or barcodes. And others send votes in clear text back to vendors to be tallied. They can all be hacked or compromised. If almost all the voting precincts in our clunky system use equipment from these vendors, an attacker only needs to hack the equipment to reach all of the voters. Unlike major technology companies such as Apple and Microsoft, these vendors do not allow researchers to test their equipment and review their code to find vulnerabilities and bugs. The symbiotic relationship between tech software and hardware vendors and researchers helps them improve their products and keep them secure. But this is not happening when it comes to voting machine manufacturers. They will not let the researchers have access to their equipment. Voting equipment companies have been highly resistant to review to any review by the research community claiming their systems are safe and secure. Yet they have failed to fix identified vulnerabilities in the voting equipment. They repeatedly claim everything is fine. We're all secure. This is a priority. We take this seriously. America's voting is just our basic concern. And they don't fix vulnerabilities that researchers have found for 15 years. They let their voting machines be out front and used for voting, knowing they have vulnerabilities in them. I guess they think no one's going to exploit them. But really to cover that up and try to say they're all safe and sound, that's just wrong. So during the three years of the voting villages existence, I think most of you are familiar with voting village. None of the vendors have supported the effort, nor have they been willing to donate or offer equipment. While the researchers in the voting village, they're dedicated to this because one, they want to help develop a community of cybersecurity experts and election security. There are not very many experts out there who know how to deal with election voting machines and cybersecurity problems and how to solve those vulnerabilities. And they also want to make the voting machines more equipment and equipment more secure by letting these vulnerabilities be known. The problem is the vendors are doing nothing about it. And apparently the election officials also are not requiring them to fix these vulnerabilities before they have another election. So that's a big problem. So I want to put forth a proposal to address this problem and achieve results. Certain actions can be taken at the federal level that will push a standardized approach out to state and local election officials and will require certain actions to be taken by private sector companies. Article one section for the US Constitution grants Congress the power to regulate the times, places and manner of holding federal elections. Federal elections deal with elections of senators representatives and the president. Now, state and local election officials are responsible for conducting all elections, but they depend on infusions of federal funding to supplement their state and local funding. So state and local officials can't really afford to have separate equipment and systems one for state elections and one for federal elections. So when federal election officials or federal election Congress mandates certain requirements for federal elections, they pretty much have to go along with those because they only have one system for voting. Therefore, if Congress sets requirements for federal elections and restricts the funding that these state and local election officials need to only those election agencies that adhere to federal requirements. We will begin to see consistent actions taken across the US that will tighten cybersecurity in the election process. So this proposal that I approve that I want to go over with you today is such a proposal to have federal requirements set by Congress. The first would be to direct NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology to establish federal standards for cybersecurity. NIST is the entity in the government that has established all the federal information processing standards. It's established all of the cybersecurity best practices and standards that have been put forth by NIST that federal agencies have to adhere to and certain federal contractors. So they have a deep bench of expertise and not only standards and cybersecurity but in secure engineering practices. And it would be appropriate to direct them to develop federal standards for cybersecurity of our election system software, the infrastructure and the hardware. All three levels that are used in voter registration, vote tallying, voter polling, and in the manufacturing servicing or writing of election parameters of voting machines and equipment. The first covers the systems, the infrastructure, the hardware, the software, the hardware, the network that they're using. What are the standards for that? Because that is used in registration and tallying and voter polling. Again, this isn't just one thing of one machine and go to the vote, the poll and vote. This is registering to vote. It's signing in and being IDed. It is voting. It's tallying the votes. It's polling the votes, the voters, and it's reporting the votes. All of these actions are largely performed by private sector companies who we don't have any idea how their cybersecurity program is whether it's mature or not. We suspect it's not very mature, but that's just a suspicion. But we should have a standard for saying it must meet these standards. Our democracy depends on it. That's worth the standard. And then we have in the manufacturing the servicing of voting machines and equipment. Absolutely. We want these vulnerabilities fixed. They need to be serviced and maintained and have integrity. The writing of election parameters means the programming of these machines. In most of the jurisdictions, the private sector companies program these machines for every single election. So we need standards to govern how that's done. Second is we should directness to establish a certification process for the security and integrity of election systems, software infrastructure and hardware and associated components and modules of the election process. So there should be a certification process to make sure they're meeting the standards. We should directness to analyze the private sector's role in the election process and recommend any roles or functions that should be changed or restricted to public sector election officials. There are some roles being undertaken by private sector companies that perhaps should not be a private sector activity. Perhaps that role should be strictly a governmental function. But let's next analyze that in all of their work in establishing the federal standards and the certification process and recommend to Congress roles that should be perhaps reserved to the public sector. Next, we want Congress to pass a law restricting federal funding to those two election jurisdictions to only those jurisdictions that one use such funding in a manner consistent with the NIST federal election standards. And those jurisdictions that require annual cybersecurity assessments by an independent third party of all the systems in the election process in accordance with the standards that require annual cybersecurity assessments by a third party of all private sector companies involved in the election process in accordance with NIST standards and to make these assessments available to election officials contracting with them. A company may get a cybersecurity assessment, but it may not share it. We want them, we want these vendors to have to get third party assessments every year and share those assessments with the election officials contracting with them. And we want the election officials to get third party assessments of their systems in accordance with the NIST standards. This is what private businesses do every day. That's what's required of them. This is not asking too much of election officials or private sector vendors that support the democracy that this country has been built on. We also want federal funding restricted to those jurisdictions that establish requirements for post election auditing of votes, at least on the level of risk limiting audits and to make the findings public. So restricting federal funding to only those jurisdictions that comply with the NIST standards that conduct the risk assessments themselves that make their vendors get the assessments and that have post election auditing. There's a precedent for this. Congress has passed laws in the past to restrict highway funds to only those jurisdictions that lower the speed limit to 55 miles an hour. Congress has restricted funds to only go to those school districts that would adjust their cafeteria menus to comply with the new recommended federal menu. There are numerous other examples, but the Congress has in the past in several instances tied its federal funding to meeting certain requirements. There's nothing more important than having our federal funding tied to meeting the requirements that our vote counts that every vote should be counted and it should be counted as cast. The American Bar Association, which represents over 400,000 attorneys recently adopted resolution 118, which calls for these exact measures. Cybersecurity best practices and standards can help because election security is not going to get solved overnight. But standing up a cybersecurity program for election assistance that's in compliance with cybersecurity best practices and standards will be a first big step. Congress may not pass a law right away, but election officials should already be doing this. They should already be saying we have NIST standards for cybersecurity programs. There are ISO standards. There's multiple standards out there for cybersecurity programs and every single vendor should be adhering to those. They're not only using equipment with vulnerabilities, their own networks and systems are vulnerable as well. So it's time election officials step up and take action even before Congress does. They require election officials should require election vendors to meet cybersecurity standards and best practices, conduct annual risk assessments of their programs maturity, and do whatever the business would do, manage its risk. In addition, they need to follow the lead of California and other jurisdictions and higher experts to test the security of their voting machines and equipment and then demand that vendors close any vulnerabilities found. Why are these officials letting machines with vulnerabilities that have been known for 15 years be used in their jurisdictions? That's crazy. They need to demand these vulnerabilities be fixed and they need to join with each other nationally and ensure that those machines are not used in elections. So legislation and other reforms are needed, but election officials can achieve these things through their own direction and in legal agreements with their election vendors, and they should begin now and do as much as possible before November. Thank you very much.


In the weird circle, in this cave by the restless sea, we are met to call from out the past stories, strange and weird. Bellkeeper, hold the bell, so all may know we are gathered again in the weird circle. The world gone by, speak again the immortal tale, the phantom picture. The works of our greatest Italian artists of today. You, the most renowned art critics in the kingdom, will choose tonight that work which is to hang in the pity gallery beside Raphael, Da Vinci, Michelangelo, the classic masterpieces of Italy. Weigh your decision carefully, gentlemen. Thank you. Hello, you wanted to see me? Yes, yes, Dr. Ghana. Please close the door. Yes, but what hurry, please? See, here, stop, push it. What's wrong with you? Who's out there? Is someone following you? No, no. Well, then why do you keep looking back over your shoulder? Oh, that I, I'd have a painting. Oh, see, here, now stop this foolishness. If you're hungry, go to the kitchen. And if it's money you want, here's a sum to buy you lodging. I must get back to my guest. No, wait, please. I haven't time. The whole kingdom awaits the decision of those critics in there. The choice of the painting which will hang in the gallery beside the masters is being made by them. Paintings? Masters? They call that art? They don't know what real art is. Here, look at... Oh, really now, this is no amateur competition. Amateur. See, see here, who are you? And why do you keep looking out of that window? Is this a stolen canvas? No, no, it's mine. You don't know me, do you? But maybe you will when you see my painting. Watch closely now. There. Oh, now do you know me? Take a good look. What? What is it? Study it. Can it... Can it be a...  It's ghastly. Drop the claw. See, you can't take your eyes off it. Now do you recognize me? No. Look again. Study the painting carefully. Such a subject. It's vulgar. This is a painting worthy to hang in the gallery. This is a really great work of art, my greatest. No painting with a subject like that can be a great work of art. It is a masterpiece, I tell you, and you must buy it. Buy that? Yes. Well, you're positively mad. Why, I can't buy it. That is too frightful. You must. I need the money, Dr. Garnaud. Now, tonight, you're the only one who can help me. But I... No, wait. Before you answer, I must tell you all this. It's driving me mad. I must tell someone. I'm hunted, traveling by night, sleeping in haystacks in the hills by day, foraging for food up in the mountains, not daring to risk showing myself in town.  Long ago, though, when I left Naples, it was mid-summer then, when I stowed away on a bark in Naples' harbor. Little did I realize then what the future held for me. Yes, and of the new life which awaited me in general. Oh, Bravo. That is the exact likeness of the organ grinder to the very last hair of his moustache. Oh, Signore, you have great talent. Oh, not yet. Or I wouldn't be painting on sidewalks for my bread and meat, but I shall be great someday. Someday you shall, if you receive the proper training. Oh, when I can afford it, I shall seek a great artist to teach me. But why pay for your training? I will teach you for nothing. You? And who are you? Oh, look closely, my boy. Don't you recognize me? Are you... Is it possible you are Pasquale, the celebrated portrait painter? Another. And you will teach me for nothing? Oh, how can I ever thank you? Oh, don't. Come along now. Well, to my studio, of course.  Come along. It's not far. A simple but comfortable place on the edge of the city, away from all the noise and confusion, away from colonnades and mammoth terraces where a man can really work. Oh, I still don't understand why you're doing this. Well, it's really very simple. I'm an old man now, old and famous, and I have more orders for work than I can possibly take care of. It's about time I hire an assistant. You mean it means a lot of hard work? You see, my heart is not what it should be. I can't work like I used to. Ah, yes, you'll have to work hard. Oh, I can do that all right. Just think a chance to study under the great... Ah, don't forget, though, I shall use you to good end. Ah, yes, you look like a clean cut young fellow. Maybe you'll have a good influence on my son, Filippo. He's 19. About your age, I would say, and a thoroughgoing rascal in your industry will set him a good example, I hope. I shall do my best, sir. And then too, before long, you may meet my daughter, Bianca, when she returns to the seminary. Oh, come along. Come along, we shall be late for dinner. Oh, I'll tell you. Yes? Come here for a moment. Good morning, Pascal. Oh, you're looking better this morning. Oh, and I feel better after that last attack. Oh, what did the doctor say? Oh, it'll be easy. That's all. Heart won't stand excitement. Oh, how is that portrait for the depressed family coming? Oh, it's almost finished. Another five hours, perhaps. Well, let it be for now. I have a rush portrait to do for Gattano's to hang in the palace at the Strudder Balbey. You get on it right away. Bianca will sit for you. Did you get it away? Where is she, anyway? Oh, she's out picking flowers, I suppose. That's all she seems to do, since she came back from the seminary. Oh, she has the soul of a poet. Besides, the walks and the pressure are good for her. Oh, so you like her, don't you? I... Well, sir, you'll have to admit she is very beautiful. Oh, I am willing to say she is. After all, I am her father. But it's good to have other people agree with me, especially young, handsome men. Now, yes, she is a good girl and proud to be her father. I wish... Oh, dear, I wish I could say the same about Philippo. No, Pasquale, you mustn't say that. But it is the truth. He came home drunk again last night, lost some more money at gambling. That just doesn't seem to be anything we can do with him, does there? Oh, I'm sorry, sir. Oh, there, there, it's all right. You've tried your best. You run along now and find Bianca and be sure to keep your mind on the painting. Yes, but you are already famous, Pasquale. Must you accept another commission? Oh, one does not do murals in the Vatican every day, Artavio. Nor have pictures hung in St. Peter's. And besides, we are in sad financial straits at the moment. Oh, Pasquale, why didn't you tell me? What... No, it's Philippo. Came home drunk again last night. Ah, and another spree. This time he sold all the paintings in the studio. All of them? Yes, debts, debts, debts. He'll have us all beggars with his high life. Well, I... Pasquale... I have never told you, but I have been sending some of my work out to Florence under an assumed name, of course. I took the name of Cattio. Cattio? Well, I have a little something saved. You know how I feel toward Bianca? No, no, no, no. I would not think of it. I'll put a stop to this once for all, even if I must have my own son jailed. You're sure you want me to make the trick? Oh, yes, yes, indeed. You should complete the plans and estimates and be back from Rome within two weeks. And then when it's all settled, we'll tell Bianca. What about Philippo? Don't you think... No, no, no, no. You get started. I can handle him myself. There he is coming up the walk now. Oh, I wish my health permitted me to go with you. But remember, the painting for St. Peter's should be similar to my Madonna, which is in the church of the Nancyata here in Genoa. I won't forget. Say goodbye to Bianca for me. Yes, I shall. Goodbye to you. Now, the safe journey and hurry back. Philippo, this is the last straw. If you don't get the money back for those paintings, I shall turn you over to the police. You wouldn't dare. Oh, yes, I would, and I'm going to. No, you won't. I would cause a scandal and you're too famous to want that.  Haven't you any sense of dignity? You're a healthy young man.  Philippo, I'm still your father.  I don't mind the life I lead, so long as I don't have to work for a living. My own son.  Father, Father, stand back. What are you going to do? My own son. Get back. Get back. Let me go. Let me go. I tell you. Let me go. Try to attack me, will you? That ought to show you. Father. Father, get up. Father. Packages, Philippo. There. Where's Father? Philippo, what's wrong? Where's Father? In there. On the floor. His heart. Oh, no. Speak to me. Oh, what happened? I... I heard Octavia quarreling with him. I hurried in and found Father lying there on the floor. Octavia. I searched all over Genoa for you. It's you. Go away. Go away, please. But I... You heard her. Go away. You killed my father. Killed? Have you lost your senses? Your father dead? Yes. I don't believe it. Philippo, say it's not true. It's true enough. He died of a heart attack after you quarreled with him. After I quarreled with him? Oh, don't act so surprised. Go away now. Can't you see Bianco wants nothing more to do with you? Bianco, look at me. You don't believe that I killed your father? Yes, I do. And my heart... Here, it's dead. No, don't say that. It can't be true. You don't really believe that... I have nothing more to say to you. Now will you leave? Nothing more to say.   If I hadn't followed you here, I would have never seen Bianco. No, I wouldn't have seen her.  Put down that knife! No, no, don't! Help! That will close your lying mouth. Shove those lying words! Put down that knife! Put down your stuff! All right, sir. We have one left on the third floor. Does it face the street? Yes. The corner room. No, no, no, I can't stand to be hemmed in. Are there any fire exits going past the windows? No, I'm sorry. Never mind, so much the better. Someone else in your party? No, no, no, no, show me the room, please. Are you looking over your shoulder? I thought the room, man. I want to sleep. Yes, sir, yes, sir. Right this way, please. Here it is. Thank you. It's a very comfortable room. Now, if you want anything, just ring. No. What is it, sir? What's wrong? It's nothing. I thought I saw someone. Oh, why do you draw the curtains? I don't like to have people looking in my windows. But you're on the third floor and across the street there. Those are business houses. You say there are no fire exits outside the window? No, none at all. That will be all. Such a clear night. You really need some air and such a beautifully full moon. I look after my own health if you don't mind. I said that will be all. I'm sorry, sir. Good night. Just a minute, sir. How far are we from the center of town? Six miles. The Apennines are that way to the west. We're on the outskates of Genoa here. Thank you. Good night. You want to be called in the morning? No, no, no. I'll be up early. Very well, sir. Good night. At last, alone in this room, I'm safe here. The police will search. They will not know who killed Philippo. They will not know unless, unless. The uncle will tell. You didn't think of that, did you? You must leave. You must get out of Genoa, now, at once. Yes. Yes. Now, at once, I must. Back to the mountains. I'll be free in the mountains. In the face, it cannot follow me there. No, it cannot follow me there. Six days in this wilderness. Water. A brook, by promise. It's parched. Now I can drink. Now, at last, I can take a drink. Like goodness for this brook. No. No, I have no scar. Look closer there on your right cheek. It is. It is a scar. But it can't be. I never had one. No, you didn't, did you? But remember, he had one. Yes. Behind you. Look. You? No. No, there's no one there. The reflection in the brook. That is my face. The scar. Blonde. Blonde. My hair was blonde. My hair was blonde. His was like blonde hair. He had blonde hair. The scar. My hair turned. My hair turned. It haunts me. It's face. It haunts me. Everything about his face. Everything about him even out here. I must get out of these mountains before I go mad, mad. I'm sitting in the mountains. I'm sitting in the distance. It's a bit flourished. Campanella, it must be flourished. There must be risk going down. There must be risk going down. I can't bear it up here any longer. I can't bear it. I can't. I can't. Dr. Bichetti. Yes? Come in. Here, sit down. Cigarette? No, no. No, thank you. You mind if I smoke? No, no, no, I... Doctor, I... No, no, don't be nervous. I'm your friend. Doctor, look at me. Yes, I am. Had my face look close? Well... What do you see? Refinement. Under a heavy beard, of course. Is that all? No marks of any sort, such as a... such as a scar? No, no scar. Are you sure? Positive. Then, Doctor, tell me, you're a great doctor. Why do I see a scar on the right side of my face every time I look at myself? How long have you seen this scar? Two weeks, a month, him. I've lost track of the exact time. It's horrible. The way it keeps haunting. Yes, yes, I begin to understand. Has an unusual occurrence overtaken your family? Someone close? Pass away? No, no. What business is that of yours? I came here to ask about the scar and not to be cross-examined like a... There, there, there, now I... I only want to help you. I'm sorry, Doctor. May I pass away, family? Oh, yes. My... my cousin, he died last month. And did he have a scar similar to the one you mentioned, I mean? No. Yes, he did, but perhaps I... Our minds are delicate mechanisms, sometimes hard to control. You, undoubtedly, were very attached to your cousin. Were you not? In a way, we saw a great deal of each other. And no doubt you think of him often, although why you should imagine that you see it? How long since you've worked? I see by the form the nurse gave you to fill out that you're an artist. Several months. No, I can't be sure, but that may explain this phenomenon in part. You should keep yourself occupied. Suppose we start by recommending work. Lots of it. You... Really think it will help me, Doctor? Definitely. Whatever you say. Just a minute. I know of someone. Do you do portraits, by the way? Portraits? Uh... Yes, yes. I can help you then. You can help me? How what? You're to stop at this address at 11 tomorrow. Ask for a senior fioro, as he'll be expecting you. He's had every artist in Florence do his portrait. He insists his likeness will hang in the palace before he dies. He's a very exacting sitter. Good luck. Doctor, I... I don't see why you trust me this way. I am a doctor. I like to think of myself as being one to help a fellow man. Now, you need help. Otherwise, you wouldn't be here. But what about your fee? After all, I just can't... You can take care of that after you've proven yourself with Senior Fioro. Yes, after you've satisfied the senior with your work. One moment more. Now, Senior Fioro. Steady. Oh, that'll be enough for today. One last touch. Oh, I... I... There. Oh, no, I must rest now. I have a dinner engagement. I'll have time to sit tomorrow in two.  The outline was very satisfactory. Now, let me see how you progress with the details. Oh, wouldn't you rather wait to see the completed work? Oh, no, nonsense. I'm proud of it thus far. Let me see it. If you insist. Oh. No, no, no. Oh, that's not me. I tried to... What have you done with my portrait? Senior... What have you done to it? Answer me. I don't know. You don't know. You've ruined it. That's what you've done. You've ruined the only picture I've ever considered buying. Look at it. Senior Fioro. Go ahead. Just look at it. Now, is that me I ask you? Is that me? No, Sioro. Are those my eyes? Is that my nose? My mouth? Do I have that scar? No. That picture is frightful. Take it out of here. I might have known Dr. Pigeny would send me one of his crazy patients. Take that away from here. You hear me? Get out. Don't ever let me set eyes on you again. Get out. I fled from the man's place, Dr. Giano, into the hills beyond Florence. There, in a simple hut, I set to work to erase forever from my mind a phantom face which haunted me constantly. I set to work to reproduce it on Senior Fioro's canvas. All the ghastly details of the face which stared up at me from the floor at that osterea in Genoa where my victim fell. The protruding eyes, the jagged scar, the teeth glistening like fangs. I poured all the skill of my art, all the power of my emotion into this last desperate attempt to free my soul. And here, here is the finished work. It represents the hours of torture and agony I've undergone. My atonement, my penance for my crime. You can see it in every brush stroke. You must help me, Dr. Giano. You must buy it. You must. One moment. One moment. Those lines, that distinctive brush stroke, excellence of detail, where this resembles, where this is Katya's work. You recognize it then? But of course. Then you are the one who sent those canvases from Genoa. You are Katya. Yes, Doctor. Now will you help me? Now will you buy it? But we have some of your work in there being judged. Oh, they are of minor importance. I must have the money. Wait, wait. Listen to me. Listen closely. You are a famous man. No, no, no one but you knows my real identity. Ah, but I'm not the only one who knows your real identity. Well, I must not be seen here. Wait now, wait. Don't run away. I know you're innocent. I believe everything you've told me. I knew your story even before you came here, but I didn't interrupt you because I wanted you to corroborate. Who told you? Bianca. You know Bianca? As a connoisseur of art, should I not know the daughter of the great Pascal? Wait here. Now don't go away. I'll be right back. Bianca, Bianca, come here. No, no. Come here, my dear. Bianca. He has come back. Octavio. Octavio. Bianca. Octavio, don't speak. I know all the facts now. I know a feliquous lies. Then you will not turn me over to the police for the murder. Listen to me, Octavio. We must go to the police. We must go to them and tell them everything, and I will stand by now. That is wise, Bianca. Octavio is a famous artist. The people love his work. The police will be convinced that he has done penance enough when they see the painting he has painted. By your face, I see that you've suffered much, Octavio. Come with me to the police and free yourself from your pain. You have to be really free, a free man. I will stand by you. I know you will be free. I have regained my strength already, Bianca. Do I have anything to fear if you will stand beside me? Listen. Listen, don't you hear them? They've chosen your painting. Come on, Octavio. Walk with me into the gallery and accept their acclaim. From the time worn pages of the past, we have brought you the phantom picture. Bell Keeper, go!


Good morning. I'm Luke. So I'm with the Ethereum Foundation with the Ecosystems Support Program, which as my name is saying, it's ESP. I won't say Ethereum, I won't say the Ecosystems Support Program again today. It's just the ESP. So we hope everyone can remember the acronym. Yeah, so thank you for coming. I'm gonna spend some time just, you know, talking a bit about what ESP is, what we do, what we look for, and how you can apply. So, you know, ESP is, if you look at our website, you know, ESP is the Public Facing Allocation Arm of the EF. So what we're talking about there is, you know, where the arm of the EF that provides support to the ecosystem could be financial, could be non-financial, with the intention of growing the ecosystem and pushing the Ethereum, pushing Ethereum forward, you know, to meet the objectives that I think we all see that Ethereum could have. You know, we're not, we're not here to kind of say what needs to be solved, certainly not in most cases. We're just here to help guide and we really like to hear the feedback from, from everyone in the ecosystem as to, you know, what are the problems that need to be solved. We might have some ideas, but I'm sure everyone else has ideas as well. And at the end of the day for Ethereum to meet its objectives, people need to start using it, people need to start solving more problems so we can push it all forward. So what do we support? You know, generally speaking, public goods. You know, we talk a lot about public goods. I think there's, there's often a lot of confusion as to when we say public goods, what are we talking about? You know, generally speaking, what we're talking about is open source, non-commercial, available for everyone to build on, you know, and positive some outcomes. You know, another way, another way to look at, you know, maybe more specific or maybe more abstract, depending on how you want to think about it, is, you know, public goods. They're not excludable. They're non-rivalrous. That's the standard definition. User cannot be prevented from accessing them for free and everyone can use them at the same time. So really, you know, when we're, when we're trying to build out public goods, we're trying to build, we're striving to build positive, positive outcomes. And we need, we need public goods that avoid the destructive scaling of Web 2. So that's, that's the, you know, highest level of when we're evaluating a project, the highest level consideration.  I'm not going to talk about those types of, those types of opportunities specifically. I'm going to be focusing more on just the, the regular application process and kind of the more, the more general ESP function. So, you know, what are we looking for? You know, this is like the, the general, the general themes of projects we're looking for. You know, there's obviously nothing specific in here. It's, it's ideas that fit within this framework. Right. So again, what we're looking for is it's at the infrastructure level. We're looking for things that everybody can build upon. And, and, and yeah. So jump it ahead. The, you know, this is the mental model that I've created for myself to help me understand, to help me understand where we fit. You know, so I hope this slide confuses you as much as it potentially maybe asks, helps you ask some questions as to what types of projects are we looking for? So the way I look at this is, you know, the, the vertical axis here is how is, how important is the development to Ethereum? The horizontal axis is, you know, how capable, you know, how motivated is the ecosystem to, to implement something as well as, as well as how much capacity do they have? And is that, is that funding capacity? Is that technical capability? You know, it could be, it could be anything in between. Right. So in the, like in the, in the top left, you know, you kind of have like the Ethereum roadmap, really core development type of activities and research activities related to, related to core development. And, you know, that's really, those are really areas that I think the EF plays a really strong role in at least signaling, signaling activities that need to be done. Certainly, it's not all executed by the Ethereum Foundation. It's executed by, by members of the core development team, which are within and with outside, and outside of the, the Ethereum Foundation, as well as, you know, partners and grantees and so there's, you know, hundreds of people that, that work, work on those types of, worked on those types of projects. The bottom, the bottom right is, you know, let's say more commercial projects, more projects where there's maybe more financial incentive in order to build an application, or perhaps just purely, like application level function.  So it, it may or may not require as much ESP involvement in helping to steer that. That's just people building businesses on top of the blockchain, which is what we want to see. Everything else in between, so kind of the, you know, certainly in the, in the, in the top portion is, you know, it's certainly incomplete. I think if we looked at the entire problem domain, there's probably no blank space on this page at all. But generally speaking, it's, you know, the infrastructure associated with implementing, you know, all the other, all the other capabilities in here. Like when we talk about UX and crypto is bad, what infrastructure is missing in order to enable a, a UX that, that actually makes it, you know, enjoyable to use. You know, how do we, how do we increase censorship resistance?  How do, or, you know, minimize the negative MEV, MEV, I should say. You know, so, so again, this is not, this is not intended to be a, you know, a complete map. It's just something I've used to frame myself for when we see applications. It's kind of a, where does it fit, where does it fit in this space? And is it something that, you know, we should just be making connections to other, other funding sources within the ecosystem? Or is it something that we should be engaging with? Or is it, you know, something that, you know, you don't really need our help? And, you know, the bottom, the bottom left is really just, you know, maybe it's items that are, or topics that are too early to implement. It doesn't mean we don't need to do the research today, but perhaps it's, it's, it's too early to get started. So, you know, they'll trickle up in priority in one direction or another over time. Right? So, you know, I'd be curious, I'd be curious to talk with people, you know, this whole week or any time really, just as to what are the problems that, that everyone else sees? You know, what, what do you think the missing infrastructure layers are in order to build what you want to build? And that would let everyone else build what they want to build as well. Right? So this is, yeah, again, it's just a mental model I've created to confuse myself and everybody else, but I hope it, I hope it helps at least see where my head is at.  Right? So we're not, basically, if the EF is always looking for ways to uniquely support the ecosystem. So if there are opportunities for, you know, VC funding or other funding sources within the ecosystem, we would be more apt to make connections than to support directly. Right? Projects that are actively raising money probably don't require the EF support. If you're, if you're building a new NFT project or a new NFT platform, unless there's some really unique piece of tech in what you're trying to do, again, it's probably not something that, that we support. We do see a lot of applications in that area, but it's, it's not something that we, we would actively try and support and certainly token, we don't talk tokens, we don't, and we don't talk about investments and we don't talk about that type of thing, as well as hobby activities. You know, hobby activities are certainly great. They might be beneficial, but they're not the types of things that, that we would generally support. If you're trying to start a breakfast club of some kind, it's probably not the right, the right place to, to apply. So we'll get into the different types of support that the ESP provides. You know, I don't know if, if any of you have checked out the ESP website this year versus last year, we completely revamped the ESP website back in February to help streamline the process of applying for support, as well as to, as well as to, I guess, provide some other options for the types of support that we provide. So the first type we have here is office hours. So this was new in 2022. And so office hours gives you the opportunity to submit an application requesting guidance on your project or guidance on how to get involved in a project, or just, you know, some, some advice. You don't have to submit a grant application here. This is just simply, it's a fairly straightforward application. If it's something that, you know, if your project idea is something that appears to be aligned with, with something we, we would like to talk about, then we, we quickly set up a 20 minute phone call with one of our evaluators. And, and we go from there often times, we, these lead to recommend, you know, recommending a team or an individual to apply for a grant, or it might be, you know what, we're going to connect you with someone else within the EF or someone outside the EF in order to move your project forward. You know, I think, I think the last data I was looking at is we've seen something like 300 applications this year for office hours calls. I think we've held over 100 office hour calls this year. So that's 100 unique teams that our team of seven or eight people have been, been talking to this year, just simply providing this type of support. And there's been more than a handful that have, have turned into grant applications or sponsorship applications as well. So next up, so, so an office hours is non financial support. So the first type of financial support we provide is sponsorships for community events. Now these will, these are always educational in nature, I'll say, but they're, you know, they're, they're local events, local organizers may or may not have an EF presence supposed associated with them. It's just, it's just intended to build out, build out local local communities. You know, so we, we, we look at things like how aligned are the organizers with Ethereum, what, what types of other projects have, have they supported? How many people are they trying to get involved in their event? It doesn't matter if your event is big or small. I think the, the big or small just determines, you know, how much money might be, might be required in order to support your event. You don't have to have big name speakers in order to apply for a sponsorship. We just need to know that you have credible community members who are able to, who are able to push the message of Ethereum forward and, and help to build those communities. We also look at, you know, why would the EF support? Is it just simply you, you want the money in order to support the, in order to get the event off the ground? Or is there some other, is there some other aspect that would benefit the local community? And you'll see later on in one of my charts the, the number of sponsorships that we've awarded in 2022 has been, I think, beyond everyone's expectations as, you know, everyone, all the, all the community events in Latin America and around the world leading up to, leading up to this week, as well as leading up to the merge. It's actually quite impressive when you see how many, how many sponsorships the EF has provided this year. And not even the EF, actually. I'll clarify the sponsorships that the ESP program has provided this year. So not including sponsorships that other teams within the EF have, have provided as well. And then, and to clarify as well, sponsorships are not considered grants. So they're just, it's a, it's a, it's a lighter weight process for, for providing funding to, to these local communities. The first type of grants, we call them small grants. The name is kind of selfish planetary. They're intended to be small in scope and small in duration. So this would be typically three to six months. They're meant to be kind of, this is the place where, where we are willing to take risks on teams, individuals, new technology, to see what can happen.  And you need a little bit of funding in order to just get that, get that off the ground and see, see if there is potential there. You know, this is, this is the type of program that, or the, the grant process that you would apply through. It's a, it's a, we typically intend to award these within about, I'll say three weeks would be roughly the target from the time you apply to, to the time we agree to, you know, is this something we want to move forward with or not? Or want to support or not? Again, oftentimes applications come in here and we actually decide that perhaps EF support is not the best place to get support. So perhaps there's another DAO funding source or perhaps there's some other connections that would be, that would be better. Certainly there's, there's back and forth between, between the ESP team and the applicants to make sure everyone, make sure we understand what the proposal is, make sure the team understands kind of what types of constraints there, there may or may not be be on the, you know, what scope we would be willing to support. But these, again, these are intended to be lightweight and this is where we take the risks. And project grants, so this is the last source of, of grants that we and the ESP team provide directly. There's no real cap on funding here. So these are late, later stage projects or later stage research activities that require perhaps a, a more robust source of funding and support. These applications go through a, let's say they might, they might be two months would be roughly the target to, from application to award for, for applications in this area. And it's a very collaborative process trying to figure out, trying to scope the project appropriately, make sure that there's a, a, an achievable roadmap, make sure there's milestones along the way to, to demonstrate progress or to find places to say, you know what, it's not going to work or, or what have you. And make sure that we're, you know, generally make sure that we're all on the same page. And so again, these are the, the decision making process here, like we go back through talking with advisors within the EF, pulling in advisors from the ecosystem if it's something that, you know, perhaps they're better, better positioned to, to weigh in on as to, you know, is this the right, is there someone else working on this tech? Is there, is there not, you know, and does the solution appear viable? Does the team appear capable? Those, those types of questions as well. So, certainly it's a, it's a more intensive process, but this is one area there where I think, you know, to be honest, we've, we've started to see a, our pipeline in this area to dry up a little bit. We're not exactly sure why, that there's, there isn't, there aren't people working on those later stage projects. Now, it could just be that everyone's been focused on the merge and focused on projects sort of related in that front and now everyone's trying to figure out what is the next thing to be, to, to actually push forward in, in, in the short term. In, in these projects, oh and sorry, going back to small grants one second. When I say short duration, it's like three to six months for, for small grants. I'd say project grants are probably six to 12, six to 18 month types of roadmaps that, that we'd be laying out with the teams. Okay, so evaluating grants is, you know, as I've been alluding to, it's a, it's a fairly complicated process. We do a lot of due diligence on applications, you know, to make sure that, you know, we ask ourselves a lot of questions. We ask the grantees probably not as many questions as we ask ourselves, but a lot of questions as well. You know, we're looking at, you know, let's see, if we look at, is this the best use of resources, right? The, the EF has limited resources, the ecosystem has limited, is, is this the best place to, to put the EF's funding to push things forward? We look at the team, is this the best team, is this the best use of that team as well? Right, if we have highly capable teams solving trivial problems, maybe we'd be better off trying to direct them to help solve a more complicated problem than, than perhaps the one they're more interested in. It wouldn't be, it wouldn't be the first time if we had a conversation with the team when they proposed a, proposed something to us and we actually tried to direct them to work on something else. Because we saw what they were trying to do, we've seen what they've done in the past, and we know they're capable of solving a bigger problem than perhaps with their, what they were proposing or perhaps their scope was, was too limited. Also perhaps the, the goal of the project was too ambitious, and so then we would try and scale the project down to, well why don't we just try and find that the proof of concept or the, you know, the minimum viable product to, that needs to get done, prove that we can do that, and then perhaps there's a discussion for, for follow-on funding, or perhaps that brings you to the point where you don't require EF support anymore. Now you've retired the risk to your project and you can move it forward. Yeah, and then I suppose we look at also the, you know, what are the side effects of the EF supporting? It's always, I'd say this is one of the most difficult considerations that we always have to make, is what are the chilling effects? If we support your proposal and you're the, and you get, you know, it looks like an EF stamp of approval on your, on your solution, does that mean the rest of the ecosystem stops developing of it? Right, so we need, we always need to make those considerations as well. We also want to make sure that teams are able to have a sustainability plan in their, in their roadmap. It's not always obvious, especially when you're building out public goods, I think that's sort of the definition of public goods, so it's, there's a dichotomy there of how do you, how do you become sustainable when you're trying to just build the infrastructure? Like how does a consensus client team, for example, become a sustainable business, are they, and how do you make, how do you come up with the balance there? So it's a consideration, it's, it's a tougher one for us to, to totally understand, but what we, what we try to avoid is having teams that are clearly going to be dependent on us for the next several years, because there, there is no way to monetize ever what they're trying to do. We also try to avoid, we call it king making, so it's sort of like the, the chilling effect, we put your stamp on your project and now it looks like the EF endorses that project and no one else should work on that project, it's just, you know, we'll put our stamp on your wallet and there you go, we don't need any other wallets because now we have the EF endorsed the wallet, so we, we avoid, avoid those situations as, as much as possible. We also try to avoid, we don't want to enable bad actors, obviously I think that's a no brainer, right, so, so that gets into getting to know the teams, getting to know their intentions, getting to know other projects they've worked on, not obviously we don't do background checks or anything like that, but it's certainly talking to people that, that the team knows, everyone, everyone, typically, you know, the applying for ESP support, you don't need to know anybody to apply, it's an open door, anybody can apply, but certainly people that are active in the ecosystem have probably been engaged with other, other organizations that, that we're familiar with and if, if there's a, if there's sort of a reference we can look at to help validate then, you know, that's, that helps make things easier as well. We also try to avoid creating our own competition and again that's one that we, we shouldn't have to say, but we do see a lot of applications about I'm trying to build applications on Algorand or I'm trying to build a new L1 all together, you know, can you, can you please support my project? So clearly, you know, those ones are obvious, obvious rejections, in most cases, you know, it certainly when you talk about building competition, obvious rejection, but sometimes there's a unique idea in there as well, right, so that we're always looking for, this was one other thing we put in there is, we see your proposal, we see your project, what's the really unique piece of tech that you're trying to build that is actually beneficial, that we think and we would agree on is beneficial to Ethereum, right, so sometimes you'll see a team submit a project proposal that actually gets scope, you know, requesting hundreds of thousands of dollars, that gets scope down into, you know, $30,000 because that's really, there was really just that one key nugget of tech that that was important to build, the rest of it was just an application layer on top, right, so the general general process when you submit an application through the website, say that is, you know, you'll hear from us very quickly and probably within within two weeks we'll be trying to schedule a call to have that have that first level of engagement and make sure we're all on the same page with what the application is and what the next steps are, you know, one thing that's, this was one thing that's not on this slide would be, you know, obviously if we keep extending the line out you're going to get to, you know, if it's small grants maybe it's just another another week or two to make a decision if it's project grants, there's a whole bunch of other gates in there, once we award a grant there is a formal legal agreement that's put in place between the EF and the team, it's not just a, it's not just a handshake agreement, so there is, you know, we need to do KYC checks on teams and individuals, we need to make sure that we have, that we're onboarding you onto the, onto the, into the program and so there is some process involved in that, sometimes teams get confused with, and it's not unexpected, so it's just, you know, oh it's awarded, where's my funds? Well and sometimes it can take, it can take three weeks, it can take six weeks depending on how, how long it takes to get that legal agreement signed at the, at the end of the process, so now I'm going to talk a little bit about what we've, what we've been up to, so I won't, I won't go into too much here, but I just wanted to kind of show you, like this is the number of applications we've been receiving per quarter since early 2020, and you can see a huge spike in 2022, now I don't know if that's all completely related to the website, redesign, I don't know if that's something to do with market conditions, I don't know if that's something to do with the maturity of Ethereum today versus where it was in 2021, and you can see, you know, the yellow one, office hours, so you can see lots of office hours support, and it's been picking up as the year goes on, you can see small grants, lots of small grants applications, right, and, and, you know, quite a few, quite a few sponsorship applications there as well, and the next slide is actually when we convert that into awards, right, and here what I actually found, what I actually found quite interesting here was although the number of applications, you know, especially if you ignore, so this is financial awards, so we don't, when we're talking office hours, we don't award office hours in our system, so that's why you won't see office hours on here, but when we look at the awards, we actually don't see the same increase, so we're actually, we're seeing tons of applications, I'd say it's like, if we ignore the office hours, we're seeing 50% increase in applications, if not more, but the awards, you know, if we exclude the sponsorships in Q3, which was all the events leading up to the merge and leading up to, leading up to DevCon, where even just, I think, in Q3 we awarded about 63 sponsorships for merge meetups, right, so that's why that's so big, so this is actually getting to the sort of the crux of the problem or the crux of the question, which is, you know, how do we get better applications, how do we get everybody here, everybody, working in Ethereum, if you have, when you're applying for, for ESP support, having applications that are more aligned, I think this works out to about a 10, maybe 15% conversion rate, which maybe is not unrealistic and maybe that's, maybe that is the way it should be, but certainly what we would really like to see is, you know, fewer applications related to my new NFT project, more applications related to, related to helping build out infrastructure and doing research that actually drives Ethereum, to be able to achieve its goals. This, so this slide is, it's basically the same slide as the last one, except instead of broken down by, by the type, it's broken down by the category, right, so you can just see the, the variety of categories and we've, we've started to try and increase the granularity of the categories that, that we're, we're trying to, I guess, classify the applications or the awards within, but yeah, certainly you can see huge spike in community events and, but again, it just stands out to me that, that the level's not increasing, even though the volume of applications is increasing, so the team is, the team is now, you know, screening hundreds of applications a quarter or a few hundred applications a quarter where they used to be screening 120 applications a quarter and trying to find the, trying to find the good projects in there, the good teams is, I guess, increasingly difficult because it just starts to, it just starts, it can easily get lost in the noise at various times. So I won't go into too much on these, so this is just the last few set of slides, so periodically the ESP does run targeted grant rounds, we do certainly support the other teams, all of the other teams at the EF when they're, when they're awarding grants or when they're running grant rounds, so Thor was talking about his rounds this morning, or his grants this morning, and, you know, so for, for example, we had a academic grant round earlier in the year, the response was far surpassed our expectations, we ended up having to double the, the budget for awards from what we were originally initiating or expecting, so we ended up awarding 39 grants for $2 million to researchers, academics, interns, PhD students, that kind of thing, and there's going to be another academic round coming, we haven't announced anything yet, but probably January, February of next year I think is, is the current plan, so if you know any researchers or, then please pay attention to our blogs for that, Danny was talking about this one yesterday, the, the merge data challenge, so, you know, this one closes at the end of the month, so again, you can look that one up and apply, we have the semaphore grants round that, again, Thor was talking about this morning, it's wrapping up in, in a few weeks as well, so again, please apply, and I think that mostly wraps up my presentation, so you know, please stay in touch, we do have a booth for the entire week, so you can come and find us, there will be someone from the ESP team there for, you know, all the time, there's people out there helping us support it today while that, while our team is in here, but yeah, come by, ask any questions you have, if you want to just stop us while we're here, stop me in the hall, it doesn't matter, ask some questions, we'd love to talk because, you know, we're not, I think I might have said this earlier, we're not here to tell anybody what needs, what we want to see in an app, what we want to see people applying for, we actually want to hear from you as to what you want to apply for, so we have general themes, but you know the problems that need to be solved, you're the boots on the ground trying to get these things done, get the technology pushed forward, and if there's any help that we can provide, then by all means please ask. We might have time for one or two questions, and then we're going to have our web three is great panel, so does anyone have a quick question? Thank you, thank you for the presentation, we are going to look further into it because we really need a lot of help with our project. I just have a question, so in one of the slides you said that you stay away from public funding rounds, so my question is if we took part to get congruence funding rounds, I was still eligible for a grant from the SESB? Well, so I think we'd have to look at the specifics. Yeah, I think that's maybe a little bit different, right, a get coin funding round, get coin is funding public goods activities as well, so I think that would be that'd be something that we would want to look at perhaps, so it's not it's not an out right now, I'd say if you're issuing tokens, if you have active VC rounds that you're looking at, then those ones are kind of off the table, but yeah, there might be extra considerations depending on the project and what the impact of that project is intending to be. Thank you, hello, my name's Sunny, I'm wondering what kind of grant opportunities do you have for inclusion and diversity initiatives in the space? Any opportunity that you want to propose, I think would be my response, I think that it we have run certainly sponsorships, we have explicitly sponsored events where that's the focus, right, whether it's whether it's, you know, just trying to get more women into the group or whether it's trying to find other under other underserved communities to get into to get into Ethereum and to help educate in those areas, so yeah, so it's certainly, I can't say what, there's no specific opportunity, we're open to all suggestions and all proposals. Okay, thank you.


Cast Lake Elementary second graders were decked out in scrubs and ready to operate at the Sanford Bemidji Teddy Bear Hospital. Kids heard what it's like to be a nurse and how surgery isn't always so bad. Different stations were set up like cleaning surgical instruments, EKG testing, and last but not least, the operating table. Each child had a stuffed animal or one was provided to them. Wolfit was in for appendix surgery. Another came in for brain surgery. This year's Teddy Bear Hospital was a little different than the last. Because of vacations and things, we ended up not having a lot of surgery, so we were able to actually bring them into our same day surgery area. They can come in, they can see what's going to happen. It's not the unknown form. It's really kind of a to lead in if they ever need to have surgery done. The visit hopes to also inspire the youth as they learn about careers in the medical field. One day they may be operating on you. If you've enjoyed this segment of Lakeland News, please consider making a tax deductible contribution to Lakeland Public Television.


My gosh, this thing is money right now What's up everybody welcome back to the channel, I'm evil rabbit here on Forza Motorsports 7 we are staring at that focus RS, but that's not why we're here today We're here today first off to give away another poster here on the 25 days to give away here on my channel With another autographed formula drift poster So if you guys want a chance to win this formula drift autographed poster card Make sure you guys comment down in the comment section down below as well as be subscribed to the channel Today's video will be for that autographed JTP Justin Pollock Roush performance Ford Mustang autographed poster card Car is definitely awesome being full carbon fiber body. So if you guys want chance to win Justin Pollock car poster card make sure you comment down in the comment section down below now the reason we are here is not because of that Focus RS it is because the specialty dealer has brought us some new cars Which I've already picked up one of them, which is the 2009 Focus RS But it is for this BMW m4 coupe now. I thought we could get the m4 coupe But you can't you can only get the forza edition so you couldn't buy the actual m4 so the m4 is here we did buy it and Well We're gonna build a tune for it. We're gonna make it slide so we're gonna go to the garage We're gonna get in the m4 and uh, we're gonna build a Wide-body m4 drift car now cuz I believe we can get the Liberty we can I already see it We're gonna throw on that Liberty walk body kit on this m4 throw that nasty Y body on there Looks so sick. Do you like that color? But we were probably gonna go with the blue So we're gonna get into the ins and outs of this build. We already rule drive I don't even know why I tried that and then of course we got to throw on that Liberty walk wing Definitely love the way this m4 looks so now let's get into the nitty gritty of tuning this car We're probably gonna stick with the sport tires We're gonna keep the 255s in the front and the 275s in the rear sounds good to me We're gonna go into the drivetrain. We got to install the clutch transmission There's a necessary differential definitely another necessary components The brakes suspension setup. We are already on race suspension We're gonna take off the sway bars because you guys know I build all my dunes without sway bars Which this is the stock ones got a throw cage in there to make it, you know fd legal We're gonna weigh it down a little bit probably a stage two to about 3,100 pounds and Then time for engine fun.  I think we're gonna leave the stock wheels on there for now I think we're just gonna yeah, we're just gonna leave the stock wheels on So we're gonna have to go change the color of this because not a fan. Well, I mean, I like to the weird ish Greenish color, but not for what we want to do. We're gonna have to paint this customized car. Nope wrong one paint car Because it wouldn't let me pick a color when I first bought it from the auction house Or the special dealer, which it probably did. I probably just bypassed it So I'm gonna go manufacture colors and get that nice robin's egg blue color Which is probably my favorite color on all those m4s So we're good on that save the current car We're gonna hop into a track run a base tune on it. And then We're definitely going to try and modify the tune more. We'll probably go to Maple Valley for the first shake down of this car. I Do like the gold calipers though?  Not my normal recording time So I'm a little bit a little bit on the lady late side today So how to do some Christmas shopping stuff you guys have got all your Christmas shopping done Let me know down in the comment section down below You guys still got more haven't even started also Let me know down in the comment section down below because that will also qualify you to win that JTP poster as well As you know get a little interaction going up in here All right, so now we got to go to tuning. We're gonna tune this thing start with tires. We're gonna go 28 29 and 28 we leave the gearing cuz we don't know We're gonna throw nasty amount of camber And we're gonna throw probably 1.3 0.5 and then we're gonna go all the way on there And we're going to lighten the Spring rate not that much. That's that's probably way too much It's gonna make that car very very bouncy and spongy how I like it Definitely gonna drop this car as far as we can I'm curious how that's gonna look because the car is already pretty low from the start lower all this down and then Switch the braking up gonna go with a little more braking than anticipated before because Apparently when I'm trying to tandem my brakes are not that great So we're gonna do a little more brakes All right, we're gonna apply that setup Yep, that thing looks so whole that fitment on that back wheel though Wow that fitment is this on point. All right, so First shake down of this basic tune Let's uh, see how she does As long as my wheels connected and we don't have any technical difficulties. It should be good We're good Gearing might be a little off Throw it in You may not have to change much at all on this car Make sure I'm on the brakes, but I'll overshoot that. Wow You don't have one of these M4s. Put yourself up an M4 throw this tune on it and Have a little fun Dang, I think we may have nailed this tune like From the start. Oh my gosh, this thing is money right now I think we can adjust the gearing a little bit lose those points We are on an extremely good run for the first Shake down on this car and basic tune. Oh My I think I found my new favorite car. I Got a little cocky. I was gonna try and run that outside edge but uh Basic tune on this car. I don't really think there's much we need to change I think we got this right on the money Maybe adjust the gearing a little bit. I don't know. I saved those points, but I did holy cow this car Yeah, definitely go pick yourself up in the up an M4 from the specialty dealer and Throw a tune on it You want to try this to definitely give it a shot, but Yeah, we're gonna see how this works right here and her in We sure wasn't like a fluke No, it was not a fluke definitely not a fluke we may not actually change your ratio Maybe a tick more acceleration But this car handles so much So much better than any of the other cars I've tuned so far I Think we got a good one here was able to see that though I mean, I don't know about you, but you tell me. What do you think? I think I need a little gear ratio change other than that this thing is It's definitely nice when you can't not screw up this turn this time and see if you can't get all the points So I tried to do last time and I screwed up, but we kind of got it this time. Oh my gosh And to it was good and for so much better Factory M4 Liberty Walk body kit not a horizon or forza edition Just a straight M4 from the specialty dealer. Oh my god. We almost still tap that Yep, I think we're gonna just gearing a little bit change up the track probably hit up Dubai and Give this thing a run for a money this thing is a Insane So we're gonna go with a little bit more acceleration on this car not much We're gonna leave all the other settings because this this M4 Definitely handles pretty well I've thrown the Dubai circuit pull Dubai and Give this thing a run for its money here Definitely recommend picking up one of these from the specialty dealer before it goes away in I believe five days We should you pick it up because I thought you could buy the M4, but you can't it's uh Not available to buy So which is surprising Well, at least in my game is not available to buy All right, Dubai M4 drift tune let's Send it and see how it goes Got a that's a good anticipation of this car from seeing how this thing handled in April Valley, so Send it and find out. Oh My gosh, I thought I was gonna hit that I tried to run that out as far as I could This thing is a lot of fun to drive. Oh My gosh Yes Yeah, it handles the twisties Third oh, it's got the angle to hold itself. We're good though, but oh What's over through that or clutch kick we're back on power This thing just floats. I mean, I don't know why you but this has to be the smoothest Car that I've seen so far Just tap. No, hahaha Just a tap when we lose our points, but you know what? I'm okay with that I'm just going for these really wide slides. I think sounds sick too. Go throw it in Ooh right on that wall. I should have stayed in third, but I wanted to shift to fourth even keep it going. We did Pick initial e-brake There we go clutch kick.  I was trying to Do multiple things We wrecked it.  Yep Still happy with it long e-brake grab. There we go You know, we're definitely gonna try that first turn again at a higher speed Oh shoot Oh as I say that was screw up, but I still think this car handles pretty well Let me know what you guys think down in the comment section down below We're gonna try and nail this one turn here Too wide No, not enough So I think that's gonna do it here for this episode here. I'm forza motorsport 70 guys I would see you want to see more tunes like this. Let me know down in the comment section down below I would recommend picking yourself up one of these m4s and uh Throwing a nasty tune on it because this thing is insane So until next time guys Like thank you guys for watching. I'm evil rabbit And I'm out
