And now, stay tuned for the program that has rated tops in popularity for a longer period of time than any other West Coast program in radio history. The signal oil program, The Whistler. The famous go farther gasoline.  I'm The Whistler, and I know many things for I walk by night. I know many strange tales hidden in the hearts of men and women who have stepped into the shadows. Yes, I know the nameless terrors of which they dare not speak. And now for the signal oil company, The Whistler's strange story. Attorney for the defense. The trial had captured the headlines and commanded the bulk of page one news since its very first day. Randolph Abbott made news because he was dead. Murdered. And his only daughter, lovely Ruth Abbott, was standing trial for his murder. Defending her was her father's own attorney, Joseph Herman. Now the court stood recessed, and Joseph Herman walked confidently from the crowded courtroom. Think you've got the DA on the run, Mr. Herman? Well, the district attorney has his job to do, and I have mine. But you may quote me as saying that Ruth Abbott is innocent. Entirely innocent of her father's murder. And I propose to prove her innocence. A splendid statement, Joseph. Clear cut to the point. Your words will look good in print. But then your words are most important in this murder trial, aren't they, Joseph? More important than anyone else's. Because you're the only one who knows exactly what happened. The night Randolph Abbott was murdered. Yes, Joseph. You remember that night well. You called on Randolph Abbott for a very special reason. Oh, it's you, Joseph. Come in. Come in. Good evening, Randolph. I hardly expected you to answer the door. Come on into the study. Med for us out this evening. All the servants are. Ruth's gone up to a room. Probably didn't hear the bell. Well, sit down, Joseph. Sit down. No, this won't take long, Randolph. This is a business call. Business? Oh, yes. The payment on your note, I imagine. The last payment on my note, Randolph. Ten years. That's a long time, Randolph. I'm glad it's over, Joseph. I should think you would be glad. That's a small word for ten years of effort. Ten years of crawling to you with the payment, Randolph. I don't understand you, Joseph. You act as if I've done a villainous thing, saving you from prison, disbarment. The courts don't look kindly unembezzlement, Joseph. You should know that.  Randolph Abbott's attorney, if you please. All right, Joseph. I've never asked for your gratitude. I don't expect it now. I'll get the note and we can complete this unpleasantness. Fine, fine. Get the note. Oh, and shall I hide my eyes, Randolph, while you work the combination to the wall, safe? That won't be necessary, Joseph. The safe's merely closed. It's not locked. I was putting some things in when you rang. Here we are. Now, if you'll give me the money, Joseph, the note is yours. Okay. Here's the money. Thank you. And here's your note. Okay. Well, I... I guess I should thank you, too. That won't be necessary, Joseph. Oh, you don't want my thanks. You just want my money. Is that it? No, Joseph. That's not it. But that's the way you feel toward me I'm releasing you. You're at liberty to find employment elsewhere. You don't owe me a thing, Joseph. Oh, so this is the payoff. You kept me crawling to you for ten years for this? I've kept your career safe for you, Joseph.  You seem to forget all that. I've given you another chance. Another chance? And then there's young Douglas, great Douglas. Ruth's fiance, he's showing promise as assistant district attorney. In all probability, after their marriage, I'll turn my legal representations over to him. Oh, no, you won't, Randolph. I think you'd better leave now, Joseph. I'm not leaving Randolph, not yet. I said I didn't know you anything. But you're wrong. Don't stop threatening me, Joseph. I'll... You'll do nothing.  No, Joseph! Stop! Here's what I owe you, Randolph. Randolph, the final payment... This! Since this is vacation time, I'd like to say a word tonight about an item that will have a lot to do with your driving pleasure. Gasoline. As you travel throughout the Pacific Coast states, you can continue to power your car with a famous go farther gasoline. Signal, that is. Yes, from Canada to Mexico, you'll see the familiar signal circle sign in yellow and black that identifies friendly, independent signal dealers. And when you gas up at a signal station, remember, mileage is only one of the benefits you enjoy. After all, the reason today's signal gasoline gives you such good mileage is that it helps your motor run more efficiently. And when your motor runs more efficiently, naturally you also notice quicker starting proud pickup and smooth responsive power. That's why we say mileage and performance are like birds of a feather. They go together. So on your vacation trip or any time, remember you get all the things that make driving more fun. When you get signal, the famous go farther gasoline.  Instinctively, you wipe your fingerprints from the heavy book end, from everything that you've touched. You move for the safe. You're certain Randolph kept the record of your payments there. Yes, you find them neatly kept in a small record book. But there's something else in the safe, Joseph. You flip over in the large letter case and the light catches the brilliance of Randolph Abbot's collection of historical gems. You make a split second decision. Robbery, Joseph. Yes, you'll make it look like robbery. Half an hour later, you carry your heavy bulging briefcase into your own home. Your wife, Helen, sensing your urgency, follows you to your room. What's the matter with you, Joe? You paid Mr. Abbot, didn't you? You got the note all right? Yes. Yes, I got the note. Helen, he's dead. Abbot's dead. I killed him. You killed him? I paid him. See, I got the note and then he fired me. Just like that, he fired me. I couldn't help it. I must have hit him with a bookend. And all of a sudden, there he was. He's dead. Joe, did anyone see you? Does anyone know you were there? No. No, no, the servants were gone. He said that Ruth was upstairs, but there wasn't a sound in the place after it happened. Oh, your fingerprints are probably all over the place. Oh, no.  Oh, and just to be sure... I took these. I made it look like robberies. Opened a window in the study where we were. What on earth are these? Jewels. Abbot's been collecting a few historical jewels. Oh, nothing much, but it was all I could think of to take.  They look genuine to me. Oh, maybe they are. He said that they were a hobby with him. You don't think he'd tell me about his jewel collection, do you? Wait a minute. What's in the separate case? How would I know? I never saw it before. Oh, look at that jewel. You think that necklace isn't worth a fortune? I don't know. It's stunning. Well, I'll say it's stunning. It's funny, too. I don't know why it should, but it looks familiar to me somehow. Let's see. What are you doing? Looking through these magazines, one of them ran some color pictures of old jewels. I know that's where I saw that necklace. Look, Helen, this is crazy. This necklace isn't important. Now, wait a minute. Here it is. Oh, I knew I'd seen it. Look, Joe, a life-size color print. Here. I bet this necklace of Abbot's fits perfectly there. Oh, I'll be... What does it say? There, below the picture. What says the Anne Boleyn necklace said to be the final gift of Henry VIII to Anne Boleyn before she was beheaded? It has in it all kinds of... diamonds, sapphires, and emeralds. Oh, let's see. Good heavens. What is it? A praise by present-day gem experts at a value of $150,000. What think of it, Joe? It's worth $150,000. And we've got it. Well, Joseph, the brilliance and value of the Anne Boleyn necklace blinds both you and Helen for the moment. Until you remember that Randolph Abbot is dead, that you murdered him, Joseph. Still, you feel secure in the knowledge that no one knows you were with him tonight.  That thought comforts you as you lock the Abbot jewels in your files and prepare to retire for the night when... Hello. This... This is Ruth Abbot, Mr. Herman. Oh, yes, Ruth. My father... My father's been murdered. Murdered? Oh, no, Ruth. Please, Mr. Herman, the police are here. I'm very tired. Can you come right away? Why, of course I can, Ruth, of course. It looks as if I'll need an attorney, Mr. Herman. The police think that I... I killed him. They think you... I'll be waiting for you, Mr. Herman. Please. Ruth Abbot? Yeah, the police are there. They think she killed her father. She wants me to defend her. You've got to do it. Do I? Why, Helen? Why not let Ruth take the rap? Don't you see, Helen? They don't suspect me, they suspect Ruth. I think it's wonderful. Now, think a minute, Joe.  You've got to defend his daughter. You'll make a brilliant defense for her, Joe, because she's innocent, you know. No one knows that better than you do. Oh, sure she's innocent, but I've got to think of myself. This is thinking of yourself, Joe. After your devoted, brilliant defense of an innocent girl, no one will ever be looking for you. Later, when it's all forgotten, we can sell the Anbole in necklace and go anywhere and live comfortably. Maybe you're right, Helen. Yes, I think you are. Okay. I'll do it. I'll be the attorney for the defense. As you reach the Abbot home, you manage an expression of grave concern. As Medford, the Abbot butler, ushers you into the study where Ruth Abbott and police Lieutenant Simpson are waiting for you. Ruth stoically accepts your expressions of sympathy. And the Lieutenant begins to fill you in on the details of Randolph Abbot's murder. There aren't too many facts, Mr. Herman. I can give them to you quickly. Then you can talk with Miss Abbott here. Very well, Lieutenant. Mr. Abbott was killed earlier tonight at approximately 8.30. Between 8.30 and 9.00. There was no one at home at the time except Miss Abbott. The servants? The servants had been dismissed for the evening immediately after dinner.  It was not a violent quarrel. It was merely a misunderstanding. Miss Abbott and the servants don't seem to agree on that, Mr. Herman. At any rate, at the height of the quarrel or misunderstanding, Mr. Douglas left in anger, I understand. He was upset, that's all. Father disagreed with us about the date of our wedding. Drake's in mine. He wanted us to wait and have a large wedding. We wanted to get married right away, a small family wedding. That's all we were discussing. Mr. Douglas went directly home. There are witnesses to testify. He was there the rest of the evening. When the servants left at 8.00, Miss Abbott was alone here. She claimed she went to her room where she stayed until 11 o'clock. When she came down here, found her father. That's the truth. Please, look. Her fingerprints are on the bookend, Mr. Herman. That's the murder weapon. We also found the safe open. And the prints are on that, too. How many times do I have to tell you, Lieutenant? The bookend was lying beside Father. I don't know why, but I picked it up. The safe was open. I just closed it, that's all. The safe, Lieutenant, was anything taken from the safe? Miss Abbott says her father kept a jewel collection there. Historical jewels. They're missing, but that's all. Why then? Don't you think the motive could have been robbery and murder from the outside? The doors were all locked, Mr. Herman. One window in this study here was open. But there were no footprints outside the window. Now, Mr. Herman, there was an inside job. And we're holding Miss Abbott for the murder of her father. When the Lieutenant leaves you alone with Ruth, you assure her you're convinced of her innocence. That even the web, even though the web of circumstantial evidence encircles her, you're sure that you'll find the wink, wink in the chain. The next morning, you go to your office to plan your defense for her. Late that afternoon, you receive a caller at your office. Well, Mr. Douglas, I am happy to see you. Thank you. Sit down. Mr. Herman, I'll come right to the point. I don't have very much respect for you as an attorney. So? I happen to know that you handled only small routine things for Mr. Abbott for the past few years. Just why he apparently lost faith in you, I'm not sure. Mr. Douglas, do you think that perhaps your own desire to handle legal matters for Randolph Abbott has anything to do with your appraisal of me as an attorney? I'm sure it hasn't, Mr. Herman. And if I'm wrong about you, as I hope I am, I'll be the first to admit it. You see, if I were anything but assistant district attorney, I'd defend Ruth myself. Obviously, I'm not assisting the prosecution in any way. I've disqualified myself. Ruth wants you to defend her. She insists on it. Well, I'm glad to hear that. Mr. Herman, I'm very much in love with Ruth Abbott. She's innocent. That's a pretty good defense right there. And you had better build a good defense for her, or you'll answer to me. Drake Douglas' words echo through the next few days as you prepare Ruth Abbott's defense. There can be no slip-ups now, Joseph. Douglas is always around, isn't he? When you and the district attorney select the jury, through all the preliminaries to the trial, he's there watching you, weighing every word you say. And finally, the trial begins. And the district attorney is completing the opening statement of the prosecution. In summary, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the prosecution will prove that the defendant, Ruth Abbott, had both a primary and secondary motive for murdering her father. The primary consideration was money, the vast Abbott wealth she was impatient to acquire. The defendant's secondary motive took hold after a violent quarrel when her father voiced disapproval of her approaching marriage. I have no doubt, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, that much will be made by the defense of the fact that Randolph Abbott's collection of historical jewels were taken the night of his murder. But I say to you that these jewels represent a paltry sum in comparison with the wealth the defendant would inherit at her father's death. That these jewels were, in fact, expendable in the defendant's plan to make the murder of her father appear to be the work of a common thief, a housebreaker. You watched the jury for reaction, Joseph, since the temper of the crowded courtroom. Yes, the district attorney has made his points well, and he continues to build his case against Ruth with the testimony of the Abbott maid and Medford the butler. I distinctly heard them quarreling. Miss Ruth, Drake Douglas and Mr. Abbott during dinner, they were shouting at one another. And finally I heard Miss Ruth say, I won't have it, I won't have it. You're not going to interfere with my wedding. Yes, sir, I would say it was an angry quarrel. Mr. Douglas left quite suddenly, and Miss Ruth saw him to the door. They seemed quite upset, emotional. Will you say they were angry with one another? Oh, no, sir, they were angry, extremely angry, with Mr. Abbott, sir. Well, Joseph, you need only see the expression on Helen's face when you go home that night to confirm what you already know. Things are not going well for Ruth Abbott, and that means they're not going well for you. But as you remind Helen, I'm having his day, that's all. I'll get my crack at them tomorrow, and I don't you worry about it. Well, I am worried, Joe. Have you forgotten what's at stake in this thing? Your own guilt, and those jewels you got locked in the file, and that necklace, Joe. Well, of course I haven't forgotten. Now what? Hello? Drake Douglas, Mr. Ehrman. Oh, yes, Douglas. I'll be blunt about it. I want to know what your plans are for Ruth's defense. Ruth is innocent. She's also the woman I love. And I warn you, whatever you do tomorrow, but... Yeah, well, for your information, Douglas, it will be good. I have an ace in the hole. It'll blast the DA's theories to pieces. The next morning in court, you set the stage for playing your ace in the hole. You dwell on the close, happy association of Ruth Abbott and her father. On Randolph Abbott's sincere affection for Drake Douglas, his faith in him. Yes, Joseph. The defense of Ruth Abbott is building nicely. The angry quarrel of which the prosecution and its witnesses have made so much, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, the defense shall prove to be merely a family squabble concerning the date and size of the defendant's wedding. Spirited, perhaps, but nonetheless the kind of lively discussion in which all families indulge. I daresay even my esteemed colleague, the district attorney has raised his voice in such a minor disagreement with his own family. But far more important and far more conclusively shall the defense rip through the single flimsy thread on which the prosecution hangs its full and highly vulnerable case against Ruth Abbott. They refer to the Abbott dual collection as paltry in value and dismiss it with that. Why? Because it is far from paltry in value and that is the one big flaw in their case and they know it. Therefore, I shall call but one witness, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, one witness. The defendant, Miss Ruth Abbott. It's a dramatic moment, Joseph, and you play its drama to the hilt. Quietly, compassionately, you ask the first routine questions of Ruth, each one a strategic step toward your main line of questioning, your ace in the hole, and finally you begin to frame the all important questions. Miss Abbott, are you familiar with your father's collection of historical jewels? Yes, of course I am. Did you have free access to these jewels? Why, yes. Father frequently discussed them with me. In fact, at his insistence, I wore them many times. I see. Now, Miss Abbott, according to the transcript, the prosecution refers to these jewels as paltry in value. Do you know their actual worth? Well, I know that a diamond brooch which once belonged to the Royal House of the Netherlands was insured for $20,000, a ring of emeralds and diamonds from an ancient Oriental dynasty was appraised at $10,000. A 15th-century ruby pendant was valued at $15,000. And the anvil in necklace, Miss Abbott, what value did it have? Why, I... I don't know its value. Would you say the entire collection would be worth enough that not only a common thief, but a big-time, highly-expert jewel thief would consider it more than paltry? I object. Objection sustained. All right. I'll reframe the question. Would you say the entire collection was worth $200,000? Well, yes, I... I would think that's the approximate value. You'll let the full impact of Ruth's words sink in. Then you turn and face the prosecution quickly huddled together. The value of the jewel, the real possibility of theft by a jewel expert has dealt their case at telling blow, Joseph. You're certain of that? You're even more certain when the district attorney arises and addresses the court. Your Honor, the prosecution requests the recess of two hours for purposes of reviewing the recent testimony. Unless the defense has objections, the court is recessed until two o'clock. The defense has no objections, Your Honor. No objections at all. I'm going to predict a site you're going to see oftener and oftener as the days grow warmer. Overheated cars parked at the side of the road to let their steaming radiators cool off. To make sure this annoying occurrence doesn't mar your summer driving fun, signal service stations have three little items to rejuvenate your cooling system. The first is radiator cleaner to remove clogging scales, sludge and rust. The second is rust preventive to protect radiators of old cars or new ones from further corrosion. And the third is radiator sealer that stops small leaks in a jiffy. These incidentally are just three items from your signal dealer's complete line of recognized quality accessories that include lead tires, champion spark plugs, Rainmaster windshield wiper blades and purilator oil filters. So when you see the familiar signal circle sign in yellow and black, remember, there you'll find not only the famous go farther gasoline and signal premium compounded motor oil but also a complete line of fine accessories and services to help your car run better, look better and last longer. Yes, the trial had captured the headlines and commanded the bulk of page one news since its very first day. Randolph Abbott was dead, murdered and his only daughter Ruth was standing trial for his murder. Defending her was her father's own attorney, Joseph Herman. And now after spending the two hours lunching with his wife at a nearby restaurant, Joseph Herman has returned and the judge has declared the court to be in session again. And the attorney is ready to resume the case? We are, Your Honor. And will the defense resume questioning, please? The defense has no further questions, Your Honor. Your Honor. Mr. District Attorney. Your Honor, in view of the evidence which has quite recently come to the prosecution's attention, I move for dismissal of the case against Ruth Abbott. Order! Order in the court! On what grounds does the prosecution move for dismissal? Your Honor, facts have come to my knowledge from the very record of the trial. Based on testimony, on record and these proceedings, which are sufficient to dismiss the case against the defendant. In light of this, I would like the assistant district attorney Mr. Drake Douglas to tell the court what he told me. It's in regard to the Abbott Jewel collection, Your Honor. Only three people could have known about one piece in particular. The defendant, Ruth Abbott, will swear that on the night her father was murdered, he showed her the historic jewel he had acquired only that afternoon. At that time, he requested that she tell no one about it. Ruth told no one until she told me a few moments ago during recess. The only other person who could possibly know about the jewel is the person who killed Mr. Abbott and stole the jewels. That person has revealed himself, Your Honor. Just before the court recessed, the attorney for the defense, Mr. Joseph Herman, specifically questioned Ms. Abbott about the jewel, the ambulin necklace during direct examination. No! No! He told me about that necklace, Your Honor! Order in the court! Your Honor, after Mr. Herman's question this morning, the prosecution obtained a search warrant. And during the recess, while Mr. Herman was lunching downtown, we went to his home and found the Abbott Jewel collection in his files. We submit them now in evidence. Your Honor, the state requests that you order the arrest of the attorney for the defense, Mr. Joseph Herman, for the murder of Randolph Abbott! Let that whistle be your signal for the signal oil program the Whistler each Sunday night at this same time. Brought to you by the Signal Oil Company, marketers of signal gasoline and motor oil, and fine-quality automotive accessories. Many drivers, when buying gasoline, forget what a big part of the price goes for tax. In fact, every time a driver in the average western city buys a dollar's worth of gasoline, tax adds 33 cents to his bill. In other words, the tax you pay on three would give you a fourth-gallon free. Featured in tonight's story were Bill Foreman, Ben Wright, Sarah Selby, Don Oreck and Gene Bates. The Whistler was produced and directed by George W. Allen, with story by Stephen Abbey, music by Wilbur Hatch, and was transmitted to our troops overseas by the Armed Forces Radio Service.

You're tuned into the COVID-19 community report here on KDRT 95.7 FM in Davis, California. I'm Autumn Lab-A-Reno and today is Tuesday, July 21st and we're here live at noon on Tuesdays most weeks. We are sharing local news and resources focusing on what's impacting Davis and nearby cities in Yolo County during the COVID-19 pandemic. My guest today is Joe Denenzio, who is the president of the Davis Joint Unified School District Board of Education, among many other roles and we'll hear from him in just a minute. This is a quick update and I actually had to update these statistics on the fly because they went up so much since yesterday's report. Yolo County remains on the state's monitoring list where we've been since July 8th for two reasons, a continued surge in coronavirus cases and a decrease in available ICU beds. In the last three weeks, the county has reported 641 cases of COVID-19, along with 34 hospitalizations and 10 deaths. Woodland continues to report the most cases in hospitalization in the county, accounting for nearly half of total cases as well as total hospitalizations since the pandemic began. Winters has had just under 60 cases and West Sacramento just over 300 and there's about another 100 in the unincorporated areas of the county. This is holding strong at about 115 cases and four hospitalizations since March, according to the county's COVID-19 dashboards. We are going to move right into my interview with Joe. He was kind enough to do this from his family vacation so we pre-recorded the interview yesterday. It may sound a little bit different than my live voice here in the studio and here we go. My guest today is arguably one of the busiest men in a town full of busy people. Joe Denizio is a senior executive with three decades of creative, technical, and business leadership creating new ventures and building successful organizations. He has extensive experience as a management consulting practice leader, a Fortune 100 senior operating executive, an entrepreneur, and an educator. He's the executive director of the UC Davis Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship and also serves as an assistant adjunct professor at the UC Davis Graduate School of Management. Additionally, and I had to fact check with this him because he is doing both of these, he is board chair for the Davis Chamber of Commerce until the end of the year and he recently became the president of the Davis Joint Unified Board of Trustees.  Thank you so much, I'm glad to be here. Yes, I know you're on your family vacation right now so I really appreciate you making time for this interview. You and I first met, I think it was back when you ran for the Davis School Board in 2018 and we are now mostly through July 2020 and it's pretty inconceivable how much has changed in those two years. When I interviewed Senator Bill Dodd a few months back he said he thought the hardest job in the next five years would be that of school board member and that's because of the difficult decisions to be made and the more even more difficult fiscal fallout from the pandemic. How about we start with your thoughts on what you've signed up for here. You didn't expect this, nobody could have, right? Sure, glad you start with the easy questions on them. Yeah, I think Senator Dodd is right and you know I ran as did many of my colleagues with this notion that there's nothing more important for the current generation than to ensure the excellent education of the next generation and that means everyone, all children from all walks of life. And I think historically our country, our state and even our community have struggled with providing adequate resources and focus to do that. And so I think if you tap on just about any school board member in the state of California or all around the country that's going to be their primary motivation and it's a huge challenge. We want more things than we can afford often and I think we sometimes forget the incredible importance of education to provide students the opportunity to identify their path forward, how they can have a valuable role in society and you know, trust me for an end of this and I joke about this at the board, but I'm not joking about it and find a way to happiness, right? We want, you know, help people find a path to happiness to feel fulfilled and you know to have a purpose in life and it is a huge challenge and we were benefited, you know, in the last several years from a relatively strong economy and a full ultimate funding of Proposition 98, but I would argue that even that was an adequate funding for what we need to do for our students in California. So Senator Dodd has it absolutely right. Although I would argue his job isn't exactly easy either. Not a cake walk either, right? All right, let's walk through the past few months with regard to the school district. First, you know, we had the pandemic, everything started in March, everything shut down and then we had the launch of distance learning within GDUSD in mid-April and everyone, you know, my read of that was everyone was just kind of focused on getting the kids through the end of the year, getting the teachers through the end of the year, kind of seat of the pants. What would you say the biggest lesson from the early months of the pandemic was relative to our schools? Well, that's a good question. I think, you know, and this can be very personal if you talk to different trustees, you might get a different answer and talk to the superintendent, certainly, or the teachers or families. So I'll give you my perspective as both a, you know, a trustee and as a parent of, you know, two children in the school district, you know, as you may recall, it happened very fast. We went from, you know, is this really a huge issue to we have to close the schools in a relatively short period of time. You know, March 13th when we did close them, we closed them for a month through spring break, you know, with the, I guess you can use the word hope that things would improve.  And I think your characterization is right. I think that, you know, all school districts work hard to figure out what do we do in the remaining time that we have in the school year to fulfill our educational mission, obviously maintain health and safety and do it in a way that, you know, maximizes the resources we have access to. But I think it's a reasonable statement to say that was, you know, was managing the best you could in a very, very difficult situation. As we look toward the fall on the superintendent's constant contact message and, you know, what we expect to hear this coming Thursday is around feedback we've gotten from the community through three surveys through Davis is great. We get no shortage of emails and we appreciate it. We get a lot of feedback, good suggestions, good ideas. And I'm not, I mean, it's great. I, we read them all and I appreciate them all. And I think we've got a pretty good sense. I wouldn't say that, you know, people are unanimous in their views on things, nor would you expect them to be. But, you know, it's clear that we need increased live instruction. We need more social and emotional support. We need to think very carefully about our students that are furthest from opportunity or have special needs and how do we serve them? How do we do a better job of student engagement? How we manage grading systems? I know that created some challenge for folks and how that happened. How we manage attendance, right? I mean, virtual attendance and things that you don't really think about in a physical school. And then, you know, how we leverage technology to ensure that everybody has equitable access to all the resources that we're providing. And I think we did a pretty good job of doing that in the months, you know, after we had to close the schools, but we can do better, right? And the school district, starting with the superintendent has committed to doing that. Yeah, and that commitment is a great place to start. And as you said, there are equity issues for students who have IEPs, for example, or those who have learning challenges or those who have access to technology challenges. And so I can only guess that that is going to be an ongoing body of work to address all of that. Absolutely. And equity has, we have to start with equity, right? We want to focus on health and safety. There's no question about that. We have to focus on academic achievement, but we have to deliver equity. We have to deliver equitable opportunities for all of our students. And just because it's hard doesn't give us a pass. And I do think that special education and, you know, parents with special education students have provided a lot of input and feedback to us, you know, students that have challenges with access to technology who are English learners. I mean, these are all populations that we need to focus on to make sure that what we're delivering is meeting their needs. And so the plan we'll see on Thursday, I expect we'll begin to address that. But your point, or at least the one that I inferred from it is this is hard, right? And so we have to continue to think about what's the best thing we can do right now? How do we listen and how do we get better, right? I mean, I think that we teach our kids to embrace a growth mindset.  And, you know, and we embrace that for our kids, right? You say, you know, it isn't that you don't know how to do it, it's that you haven't learned how to do it yet. And so that's what we have to say. We may not have perfected it, so we have to keep getting better. We can't be satisfied with where we are. We also can't get, you know, the flummoxed by things that are challenging. I just, I promised you not to filibust, but just one quick stir from, you know, my youth. I had my grandfather, my dad's side, was, you know, was an immigrant and he came here and, you know, he made a life for himself and his family and he talked about, you know, when I was, the thing, the reason I bring it up is I just realized the age I am today is the age that I first remember my grandfather. And, you know, his exhortation to me as I was growing up as I was a student was, you know, you do your best every day and everything you can do, right? And before you go to bed at night, you'll look at what worked, what didn't work, and you get up the next morning to say, how am I going to do even better today, right? And I think that we have to have that attitude. We can't be satisfied with, well, we met the minimum requirement and we got it done. We have to keep thinking about how we can continue to get better. Yeah, you don't strike me as a meet the minimum requirement kind of guy. So, all right. With all the caffeine, Artemis, all the caffeine. Yeah, to our listeners, Joe did let me know he has a big thermos of coffee, so he's good to go for this interview. All right, so we talked a little bit about, you know, the chaos that marked March and April and I do want to talk about Thursday's upcoming meeting. We'll get to that. But then we had May, when then school board president Cindy Pickett announced her departure for a job at DePaul University in Chicago. And that is the reason that you have stepped up ahead of the plan schedule into the president's seat. And did you want to say something? Okay. No, I'm sorry. That's okay. And so, you know, you stepped into Phil, Phil some shoes there and it also set up a vacancy and on July 2nd, the school board appointed Joy Kleinberg to fill the rest of the term, which expires in December, 2022. I can't even think that far ahead. So what were some of your reasons for supporting trustee Kleinberg's appointment? Well, let me take a step back if I could first on him and just make sure that we're clear on how that process went, because I think it's important. Sure. You know, President Pickett was an amazing trustee. She's an incredible job as president. You know, I would argue we were a very high functioning board. And of course, it's fantastic to get this great opportunity into Paul, but obviously that's a huge challenge for a board to fill someone, you know, like, you know, to replace trustee Pickett. It was a huge challenge. And you may know at the beginning of June and I think it was our June 4th meeting, we had a debate about how to do that, right? And it was a pretty vigorous debate, you know, because on the one hand, you want to keep, you know, you want to keep a full board. We knew we were going to have challenging decisions ahead, not just about COVID-19, but maybe we'll take a couple of minutes at some point in this and talk about the looming budget crisis, right? Because we've deferred that, but if we haven't eliminated it, I would argue we've made it worse from a budgetary standpoint. And so, you know, looking at that, one argument is you need somebody, you need a full team of five. And the other is, you know, this is more than two years of a term and, you know, this is an elected position and it should go, you know, to election. So we went back and forth on that and I, you know, anybody who's interested should go take a look at that, you know, the video from that conversation because I thought it was a good example of our board grappling with the challenging thing in public. We made the decision to go the appointment route and then you may know, we don't have to go into all the details, but ultimately open application process. We had 15 applicants, you know, very clear and transparent, you know, what it would take. Each submitted a questionnaire, an application with answering questions. Went through a first round on June 25th. We were all 15, had the opportunity to present sort of a three minute synopsis of why they wanted to be on the board. We had a vote that reduced that to six, one subsequently, you know, dropped out.  And I think in that process, one of the critical elements on them was we made the decision that we wanted to have community feedback on what sort of questions they wanted answered that were important to the community. And so we solicited them. We got a whole bunch. President Pickett before she left the board worked with me and we reduced those down to the five questions that those who watched that proceedings saw. And then subsequently, after our first round of voting, it was down to two candidates. There were three additional questions posed by the trustees. So it was a vigorous and thoughtful process and it ended up where it ended up. And I think that, you know, I feel comfortable that we, you know, not only followed the letter of the law but the spirit of the law. And now, you know, we're in a place where there are some citizens that are unhappy either with the process or the outcome. And it is their right to, you know, to seek a petition to move it from an appointment to a special election. And that's how our process works. And if, you know, you know, if that's what enough people want to have happened then that's what should happen. And that's how government's supposed to work.  So, you know, my view is obviously, you know, it's now with the superintendent, Yolo County superintendent education and if the petition is verified, then, you know, that they will work with the Yolo County elections to figure out what that process is like. But that's how it's supposed to work. And so I think that the big lesson for me taking away from this is, you know, is honestly, our government works when we play by the rules and we do the right thing. It ultimately works.  So, that's sort of my feedback on that Autumn. And that, you know, may be adding to what's already going to be, arguably a kind of a complicated election this fall as both the city and the school district move to district elections. And that's a whole other conversation. But it's going to be a good call. I will say just, yeah, I'll say just two things about that briefly for those listening because both the city and the school district will be offering a tool online so you can figure out which area you're in and they're not the same, the city boundaries and the school district boundaries aren't geographically the same. And so you'll be able to figure out is there a trustee running in my area because both area two and area five from the school district, you know, have elections, you know, in addition to this potential special election. So it's important for citizens in those areas to know there'll be candidates running in their areas. And in addition, it's, you know, we as citizens are going to need to pay attention to maybe non-traditional means, right? It's unlikely you're going to be able to do campaigning in farmer's market. I don't know, you can do door to door, right? So we're going to have to be listening in different ways to hear from candidates so that we can make an informed decision. Yeah, yeah. And, you know, we'll, Davis Media Access will step up and help with local election stuff as always so you can count on us for that. Let's- That was my plug. Thank you for taking it. Yeah. Let's zoom ahead and look at the fall. Last Friday, July 17th, Superintendent John Bows presented a staff develop plan to open the new 2020-21 school year with distance learning rather than standard classroom instruction. And since then the developments have been because Yolo County is on the watch list, we couldn't really open anyway. So the Board of Education reviewed the plan last week but didn't take action. Will the Board vote to approve this Thursday special meeting, which by the way is scheduled for 11.30 a.m.? Yes, it is at 11.30 a.m. and it will be on the normal channel 17, you know, available on of course, djuust.tv. So to be clear, you know, what we heard this past week was a recommendation, right? It wasn't a detailed plan. It was a recommendation or framework or for how we're going to open, right? And I think this conversation is going to go in phases. And so what we expect to hear on Thursday, and you know, I urge the community, if they can, to please participate. If you can't be part of it, then, you know, obviously we archive the video and please watch it. Is we're going to talk about how we address health and safety and academic programming, you know, parent choice, how we manage budget issues, you know, what special considerations we're looking to take to address, you know, families that have students, you know, that have greatest need. And so there are a lot of moving parts. And so what we've seen so far is a framework, not a plan and what we get on Thursday, I would expect will be, you know, will be the plan, will be a more details, but it's still going to take time to emerge. I think you know this item, but there have been seven action teams, more than 200 staff members, teachers, administrators, paraeducators working over the summer to address, you know, how we open. In addition to being tremendous parent involvement, not just in these advisories, you know, but also through communication, through the email address, which everybody can use, fall 2020 at djwisd.net. We read every single one of those. And of course you can always email the board at b as in boy, boe at djwisd.net. And so I think this is, you know, we're living in, my two least favorite words have become, we're living in a fluid situation, right? That's the reality, you know?  And I said, how, in genealogy, has there ever been a situation like this where schools across the country were closed, you know, for any kind of period of time? And of course, regionally, there might be a national, national disaster or something that closes a region for a short period of time, but we are literally living in unprecedented times when it comes to public education. And I think sometimes you forget about that. No one's dealt with this before, even if you go back to the pandemic and the teens, it was a different situation. And so there are a lot of lessons we can learn from other countries who went through, unfortunately, World War II. And, you know, there's things we can learn from all different places. But the reality is we've never lived through something like this before. So to expect that in a few short months, we're gonna come up with the answer to every question is overly ambitious. What we do is, you know, back to my argument, we do the best we can right now. And tomorrow, we do even better. And we listen and we learn and we continue to evolve. And we have the aspiration, and last thing I'll say, I know I promised I had to pull a buster, but I'm passionate about this. So last thing I'll say is, of course we have to deliver health and safety. We have to focus on equity, we have to focus on academic achievement. But we also have to be somewhat aspirational, right? I mean, we as a society don't just exist, right? We wanna always get better. We always wanna serve people better. We wanna give more people better opportunities. So we have to keep some spark of aspiration in what we do. We have to. All right, I like that. We're down to our last couple of minutes. I told you this would go quickly. And I wanted to just kind of work in this last thing about the Davis Chamber of Commerce Board, switching. Sure, of course. So during the pandemic, you've been running a support and information page on Facebook. It's called the Davis Chamber of Local Business and Community Support COVID-19 Response. I don't know if it's you, but I see a lot of posts from you on it. And I wanna thank you for that. It's been very helpful during the course of doing this radio show. So the chamber has done a couple of surveys during this time. What were some of the key takeaways and what are the business communities hopes and fears right now? So that's a great question. And a very complicated question. Right. I will simplify it. Yeah, I will simplify it and not do it justice. So we're just gonna agree this is not gonna achieve, you know, Nirvana. I'd say two things, that, you know, the challenge and the opportunity, okay? The challenge is our local businesses, which are a key part of the fabric of our community are suffering big time, some more than others, but most of them are suffering, right? Businesses down 75% of our businesses say that their revenue is either somewhat or significantly curtailed.  Why is that important? Because if you go back two months, we were kind of optimistic. We got missing, maybe under control. And hopefully it was gonna get better by the summer, right? It hasn't, it's gotten worse. And look, we're all human, right? We've got stamina, we've got energy, we've got motivation, but that's a body blow, right?   If I know there's something coming, I've got to put money away for, you know, having to redo a shop or whatever. But when it's uncertainty, I don't know when this is gonna change. It's really difficult to plan. How many employees do I need to have to put off capital expenditures? So that's a challenging part. I'll tell you what the optimistic part is. Our community has done an amazing job of honoring and patronizing local businesses and making it a priority to do takeout from a restaurant.  These businesses are your neighbors, they're your friends, and they're part of our community. And we want them to be here now and through this. And when we come out at the end of this, I genuinely believe, and you know, you will certainly have grounds to call me an optimist, if not polyamish, we're gonna come out of this stronger as a community. We're gonna have lives through the fire of this and we're gonna be stronger. We're gonna love each other more. We're gonna take care of each other more. We're gonna recognize the special needs and challenges of each other more. And we'll learn more about kindness, compassion, and empathy, which I think are the three things that are most important in how we live our lives. And so all that's gonna come out of this. But I will say it's a tough time right now for, you know, for local businesses. And one plug I do wanna put in for the chamber and make it clear, we decided early on that all of our services are available to everyone. So we've held, I think, eight or nine workshops, you know, with Brian Vaughn from Public County, from labor lawyers, from, you know, folks giving expert advice on how to manage your operation to comply with state and local regulations. We're doing a workshop with Mayor Partida, Monday the 27th. You know, these are open to everyone, right? And they're great conversations you can learn and ask questions. And then, you know, if there's things that we have to follow up on with legal experts, we connect you with them. We've had several with financial experts who talk about, you know, how do you apply for fiscal relief or governmental money? And then of course we are, you know, we're working pretty hand in glove with both our city and our county elected officials to identify ways that we can provide economic benefits and relief to our businesses. We have to keep doing that. It can't be like, okay, time for a pause, right?  We're not, you know, there's no view. I've heard credible view. I've heard that, you know, the current economic environment is gonna change anytime soon. So we have to keep this up. We can't say, hey, we did it for three months. Yeah, we gotta stay focused. Right. All right. Well, your optimism is a great note on which to end. And we are sadly out of time. I've enjoyed speaking with you. And again, I really appreciate both your service and making the time to, you know, to share some of your insights, even when you're on vacation. So it's a pleasure. We're always glad to do it on him. Thank you for the time. I'd like to get back to your family. Thank you so much. Bye-bye. Cheers. All right, my thanks again to Joe Denizio for taking time out yesterday to record that. I did really enjoy speaking with him and getting some insight into some of the things our school district is dealing with right now. And we have just a minute. I wanted to mention that the state run OptumServe testing site will be moved to Woodland for four weeks from July 28th to August 22nd. If you recall earlier, I said that Woodland continues to have the highest rate of cases infection and hospitalizations in Yolo County. The new site will be in building 400 at the Woodland Community College, which is located at 2,300 East Gibson Road. This is not an antibody testing site. It is to test to see if people have the COVID-19 virus. Two ways to get in touch.<PHONE_NUMBER> or by completing an online application at lhi.care slash COVID testing. And it's available for any age. It's available whether you have insurance or not at no cost to you. And it's also the county wants you to know it's available to anyone, regardless of documentation status. And that's an important note. All right, that is a wrap for this week. I'm actually taking some time off next week and we'll re-air one of my recent interviews. I wanna thank you as always for tuning in from the KDRT Studio. I'm Autumn Lab-A-Renault and this has been the COVID-19 Community Report.


Live from Washington D.C., it's theCUBE, covering AWS Public Sector Summit 2018, brought to you by Amazon Web Services and its ecosystem partners. Welcome back to our nation's capital. You're watching theCUBE, the worldwide leader in live tech coverage. I'm Stu Miniman joined by my co-host Dave Vellante and happy to welcome to the program Matt Olson who is the co-founder, president and chief revenue officer of Iron Net Cyber Security. Thanks so much for joining us. Yeah, great to be here Stu, thanks. So, obviously, Public Sector, we've been talking a lot about the cyber, as it were. As a co-founder, always one of the first, give us the why of the company. Why was it founded in a little bit of background? Sure, we were founded, I guess, out of some frustration. A number of us, including our CEO Keith Alexander who was formerly the director of NSA, we came out of the government. And the frustration was that what we saw happening to companies, big companies, small companies and the government was getting hit with cyber attacks. Consistently and increasingly sophisticated and disruptive, even destructive cyber attacks. So, we left government around the same time, a number of us and we decided, can we start a company to really take on these threats? What can we do to develop a technology based on the threat landscape that really takes cyber security to the next level? So, our mission has always been to protect companies and governments from these types of attacks that are hitting us all the time. Yeah, so there's no shortage of security experts inside the government, especially the NSA. Actually, I remember Dave and I had talked to, there was a little company called Squirrel that came out of the NSA a little bit later. What do you know, AWS acquired them last year. So, bring us inside a little bit. What's the offering that IronNet has? How do you differentiate yourself from the others? Sure, and you're absolutely right. There is a lot of expertise in place like NSA where I formerly worked and a bunch of us formerly worked. The offering basically is network traffic analytics. So, we look at the network traffic inside large companies and we write down to the PCAP. So, we're looking at the actual network traffic and running analytics and what that means is not signature based but behavioral analytics. Looking for those indicators of malicious activity that we then can alert the SOC operators in these companies that this is something they need to pay attention to right away. Of course, the problem always with this area is false positives. You know, how do you make sure that the alerts you're giving to these operators really means something? So, we've done a lot of work to draw down those false positives so that we're giving them alerts that are actionable and meaningful in the context of a very difficult threat landscape. So, that's the basic offering. So, what's underneath the covers? I mean, what's the secret sauce? Are you using machine intelligence? Share with us. Yeah, sure. I think the secret sauce is really a combination of two things. It's analytics, algorithms that our data scientists develop. We've got some world-class folks that came out of places like the Defense Research Agency and universities that develop the analytics, the algorithms, but we combine those, that math with real-life operators, people who themselves are on the offense at one point, right? They were working to break into other networks. They were the hackers who understand how the adversary operates like nobody else does. Combining the mathematics, the analytics, with real-life operators, that I'd say, you know, Dave is the secret sauce because those are how we develop the analytics and the expert system to produce the alerts and draw down those false positives. Yeah, it was interesting. Last week we were at Cisco Live talking a lot about networking and one of the biggest things for networking people is a lot of the network that they own, they don't actually own it anymore. It's in Amazon, it's in, you know, I've got my SaaS stuff, public clouds, that I'm dealing with.  So, it's a great question because there's clearly a movement, right, from on-prem solutions to cloud solutions, AWS is part of that. So, we're partners with AWS. So, we've developed our analytics to run in AWS as one of our key cloud providers. So, we, with some of our customers, we're all on-prem, we're in their data center, these are companies that want us there inside their perimeter, right? But then, with others, we have the ability to have sensors in their network, but then do all the analytics, all the backend work in AWS, in the cloud environment. And that makes a lot of sense for many companies, especially when you talk about companies that are a little smaller, maybe, or, you know, we're not talking about the biggest companies. So, they do a lot of their applications are running in the cloud. So, that's been a key transition for us as we've developed our product. Matt, what would you say are the biggest threats to organizations that they should be aware of? Yeah, well, you know, the biggest threats, they're the obvious ones in some ways, but there's no doubt that the nation-states that are carrying out attacks, whether we're talking about China or Iran or North Korea or Russia, are increasingly active and are especially dangerous in a volatile geopolitical landscape like we face today. So, we're concerned in working with our customers to make sure that we're taking on the level of threat that we see from nation-states. And that's something, I think, at IronNet, we understand particularly well, given that we were operating at that nation-state level when we were all in government. Of course, the most pervasive problem is the criminals. And you see that in all manner of hacks and cyber attacks that the most common type of attack, including ransomware, are occurring at the hands of criminals. So, rewarding, but your behavioral analytics can help with that problem. What about the weaponization of social media? I mean, what do you make of that? And I don't know, is there an answer to that that you can help with? You know, the way that social media has been used, for example, in the election in 2016, it's obviously a problem that we all are concerned about as citizens. And part of that is, I think there's a combination of the government working together with the private sector in particular, the social media companies, to come up with better ways to take on that problem, to make sure that people are using those platforms are actually people, and not bots, not Russian trolls. We need to do an education campaign for American citizens and we're coming into this election cycle that we're better prepared for what we saw happen in 2016. I mean, it's a big effort, and I'm not sure, to be honest, that as a country, we've totally come to grips with the nature of that problem. Yeah, I mean, I think you're right, we're just trying to get our heads around it. I interviewed Robert Gates one time, and I asked him this question, and I've asked other security practitioners, and I get all kinds of different responses. He said, I want to tell you what he said, and then maybe you can respond, I'm paraphrasing, of course, for Dr. Gates. He said, we have to be really careful. I was asking him offense or defense, you know, we probably have some of the best security people in the world, we could go on offense, is that the future warfare? He said, we have to be really careful because we have a lot to lose as well in critical infrastructure. Others have said, no, we should go on the offense to flex our muscles. What do you think the right posture is there? You know, I think that's a great point, Dave. There clearly is a balance. I mean, it begins with defense, right? It begins with hardening our defenses, having the right people with the right experience and the right expertise in place to protect our networks, because the best offense really is a good defense in protecting our networks. But we do need to have the capability, and we do have the capability to take offensive action when warranted. One of the challenges, I think, in this space is that we haven't necessarily developed the rules of engagement. You know, under what circumstances should the United States government take action on offense in cyber? You know, we saw this in going after ISIS, you know, going after some of their capability as a terrorist group, targeting people in the United States and taking out some of that capability. That's one way, I think, that we've clearly done the right thing in going on the offense. Harder to say when you have some of the cyber attacks going after a critical infrastructure, what's the right role for the government in going on the offense? I think, again, the first step is a good defense, and one element of a good defense is working better together. Companies working together, as well as companies working in close coordination and cooperation with the government. So it's not so much the technology. Obviously, the technology is there, but it's the process around that, the collaboration with, whether it's within agencies or organizations. I think that's right. I think there's a lot of good technology. We provide a common defense platform for companies to work together. That's what we do at IronNet, and we're doing that with a number of energy companies right now. But I think it's getting that policy in place so that companies understand that technology exists to be faster and better working together. How can we then break down whatever barriers there are to sharing information and having that sort of collaborative approach? And we see that happening more and more across the critical infrastructure, whether we're talking finance or healthcare or energy. Matt, what's IronNet's relationship with Amazon? Are you part of the marketplace? How do you go to market together? Yeah, we're a registered partner with Amazon. Amazon is one of our cloud providers, as I mentioned, for where we run our analytics. I also mentioned this common defense platform. We run the correlations that we do for companies working together. That's all done in AWS, in the cloud. We found Amazon to be really an extraordinary partner as an industry leader and a cloud provider. And so we're very close with Amazon in both going to market, but also in developing our product. So it's been a great partnership for us. Well, what do you think of the show? I mean, it's insane, isn't it? Yeah, it's amazing, right? Just a parking, trying a parking space was incredible. Once I got in. You didn't have to park. Yeah, once I got in, it's a fantastic show. We did have to register. Likewise. No, congratulations. It's a great show and Amazon has been terrific for us at IronNet. Well, we're glad to cover it and we appreciate you joining us, Matt, for this segment. Be back with more coverage here from the AWS Public Sector Show for Dave Vellante, I'm Stu Miniman, and thanks again for watching theCUBE.


t rather somebody who will be able to provide it more hygienically but and would be able to assure the brand would be able to bring assurance of safety and security to the customer now whether it is a real estate space or whether it is a furniture or fashion or um mobility I think going forward that is going to be the key trend wherein uh the brand which will be able to give the comfort and highest standards of quality will be the brand that will actually do the kill over here um secondly I think B2B is going to become a very important aspect of it whether it is about co-working or co-living there is going to be right now what's looked like a more B2C business which was very individual let it is now going to move towards B2B there is going to be an increased demand of corporates for co-living spaces there's going to be increased demands of big enterprises looking at a thousand um you know bedroom uh kind of a co-living space so all that is really going to change a lot and therefore our businesses now need to be enabled to be able to bring that B2B service into it I really feel that another service which all of you might want to look at is the cleaning services because I think they're gonna be very very high in demand because people are wanting to you know people who thought the deep cleaning was something that they did maybe once at the early is now probably going to become a once in two months kind of thing because you know cleanliness is going to be something that is gonna stick to everybody's mind even if covid goes away so let's be prepared and let's build business opportunities around it and thirdly I think there is going to be a change in consumer behavior as such so I think the first panel pointed out the people would want to live in spaces which are closer to their offices they don't want to get into a big traffic pool which means that they have to share spaces in the cars or cabs or whatsoever they would want to live to places which are closer to their work they can walk down over there and therefore you know so we might have more co-living co-working kind of spaces emerging across the country they might not be as big as they earlier used to be because the earlier the thought was more about having more people in the same place now it's going to be on multiple locations so so that you know wherever there's more proximity is going to be the driving factor rather than the capacity of the people that can be put into the premises so that will create a whole new bunch of opportunities and I feel that you know as new entrepreneurs this might be a great time for them to come and explore branded co-ownerships you know so somebody like in fashion should actually be partnering with the fly rope or somebody running a furniture store should actually be partnering with Firlenko to explore other revenue options because straight vanilla buying and selling might not be the option in the coming times so these are some of the great takeaways I've had from this today and I thank all the panelists again a lot for coming and sharing their great views and we would love to probably have more of these conferences of course in physical spaces rather than on a webinar going forward thank you very much once again to everybody thank you thank you thank you

Hello everyone! This is Yenivu Daye Video! And today I want to play Shark Attack again. It only has 5 levels. And I want to present it to you. And at the same time talk. And I hope that when I talk about this game you can learn something from Esperanto about the media in the game. But also I want you to start to propose to me new games. Because after this game I don't know which game I actually want to play. So give me a proposal. Now, let's play again. And guys, why do I want to play? I already played that. I think that this place seems interesting because it has a video. And for those of you who don't know, I never played in this level. So it's new for me and also for you. So I'm just starting to play and there's a big shark there. I'm exploring the ship. Maybe we can find the oxygen tank in it. Because I think that the most important thing that you have to do is to find the oxygen tank.  So where am I now? I'm in the ship of creatures or maybe the hall. That seems like the hall. I really like the atmosphere in this game. It's very interesting to me. I can hear my friend. Where is he? But it seems that there is no room here. Maybe. I have to save you.   I didn't see that shark at all.   Come here.   My heart really didn't expect that. So it seems that there are no oxygen tanks around here. Maybe I have to leave the ship. Okay. Where can I swim? Where can I swim? Maybe to this mountain, mountain, mountain, I don't know where it is. Where is it?  Where is the shark? There it is. Eat it. No, you can't catch me. You can't catch me. I am the god of... animals? Are you a group?  And that really isn't good for the sky in Esperanto. When you think about it. Because the animal isn't... It doesn't use the Esperanto sound system. So if I want to explain it, I will explain it.   I don't know.  There is a giant shark there.  I haven't found yet... I haven't found yet... I haven't found yet... Oh no. Now I only have a strange thing.  Okay. I recommend it. Now, I don't know to go directly to it. Okay, maybe I will go to this part of the ship. Is there something under it? Maybe. Oh, what is this? What? Is it real?   I don't pay. I just started the game.   You guys can't see that. But my cat just jumped to my feet and I didn't attend that. Oh fuck, I can't go there. Oh, is there something under these rocks? It doesn't seem so.  I haven't found yet this part of the ship. Oh, what is this? Finally! I have the machine I guess. I don't know what I call this machine. Maybe you can give it a name. So, what is this? These rocks? I can't swim. Is there something under it? Is there something under it?  I need oxygen. I'm not in a good situation but I need a ball. So, what is this? Is there something under it? I hear something. I hear... Eat that. You can't get me out of the water. Oh, what is the problem? Don't you like your own blood in the sea? Okay. Now I need to find the oxygen tank. Where can it be? Have we already born this one? Maybe not. What is this? I don't know Is it a good idea to swim in this part of the ocean because it is very shallow of caves, I guess. What is this? Why did I throw it? It didn't see me.  Where is the oxygen tank? Where is the oxygen tank? Okay, I need to go that way. I'm going. I didn't understand that. There it is. Hurry up. Yes, I have it. Okay. Now, where is that giant shark? I really want to see it. There it is. Oh fuck, there are two. Can you really see two giant sharks? There it is. It seems that there are big sharks around here. Where is it? Now I need to find the oxygen tank. Okay. Oh no, no, no, no. No, no, no, no, no. Okay. Now, now, where are you? Good idea. I just made myself. No. What is the problem? Can't you quickly turn it?   He has a big friend. Okay. I remember that the giant shark is close to the part of the ship. In fact, I don't remember.  Oh fuck, god. Come here, come here.   No, no, no, no, no, no. Good, good, good. Can you remember where the giant shark is? Can you remember where it is? Oh fuck, again. No. I'm so beautiful for you, the shark. The shark. I'm so beautiful for the ship. Oh my god. Really, you don't want to eat it. It's a big problem. Good idea. Oh, what? Oh, it's a big problem. Oh, it's a big problem. It's not a big problem. It's not a big problem. So, let me under this rock because it can't catch me easily because you're too big. Oh, what's the problem? I think that you tell the shark. Tell the shark to go to Jenny Craig. I want to watch this shark. Oh, what's the problem? You don't like when I blow your mouth, do you? Is it bad? Good, good, good. Again, I have to find the oxygen.  No, no.  It's mine. It's green blood. Green blood because I'm an Esperantist. Esperantists all have green blood. Green blood. So, if you are an Esperantist, you will find it very, very, very fast because it will influence their body. Their body. Good. The oxygen is here. Good, good, good. Take it. Good taste. Really, the oxygen doesn't taste good, but the sharks really mutated. Oh, I have to kill them. Oh, what are the sharks looking for here? I have you.  Again. Again, I have to find the oxygen. Just stay close to the sand and you are safe. Because it is too big. It is too big.  Where is my oxygen?  I don't have it. I see you.  Oh god. Really.  Trust me about that. Oh yes.   He is not human.  Now there is only one giant shark coming here.  Because I don't like your cousin. He is a very bad, bad man.   You are not apart, I suppose. Okay. Now I need to find oxygen again.  I want to call it a shark, but really it is not a shark. It is simply a shark. Okay. So what is it? It is English Black Tip Reef Shark. I don't know if we have these sharks here in Australia. We have the giant which is the English name, it is grey white. So I suppose the giant white shark, I hear it, I hear it, the music just changed and I don't know why it just changed.  Yes!  But really I don't know if you can find the shark. So, okay. If you liked this game, like it, share it, subscribe to my channel if you haven't already, and also suggest me new games. Because really I want to play new games, but I don't know where I want to play. So suggest me good ideas and I will listen to you. So I will see you in the next video and if you are not there, I will find you and I will scare you. I don't know what I want to say, so I will scare you.


Attention Hamden residents. This is a community notification of a new sexually violent predator in your area. Please stay tuned to the following short program for more information. Hi I'm Technician Ron Hackett with the Denver Police Department. The Sex Offender Registration and Compliance Unit at DPD is responsible for the registration monitoring and tracking of all registered sex offenders and sexually violent predators who live in the city and county of Denver. Here's a brief history of sex offender legislation in Colorado. Our state laws trickle down from federal government mandates. In 1994 we had the Jacob Wetterling Act which mandated that states would establish a sex offender list. Megan's law of 1996 said that the public would have access to those sex offender registration lists. The Pam Litchner Act of 1996 stated that some offenders might have to have lifetime registrations. And the Adam Walsh Act of 2006 unified sex offender laws across the country. In Colorado the legislature has determined that sexually violent predators by definition pose a higher risk to the community at large and therefore mandated that upon their release from the Department of Corrections the community must be notified. Sex offender notification in Colorado happens in two ways. The first is passive and ongoing through the sex offender registration process which is a list maintained by local police departments. The second way is active via community notification for those offenders determined to be sexually violent predators by the courts or by the parole board. Most sex offenders in Colorado are supervised by the criminal justice system in our communities. Most sex offenders engage in crossover behavior which means they may have been arrested for one type of crime but be apt to commit another.  There is no typical sex offender but all tend to be deceptive, manipulative and secretive. 80 to 93 percent of sex offenses are committed by someone known to the victim. Sexual deviancy begins in mid to late adolescence. Sex offenses are not impulsive.  The community has a vested interest in helping offenders to be successfully managed in the community. Sex offenders have the same need for housing and employment as any other citizen.  There are approximately 16,500 registered sex offenders in the state of Colorado. About 65 percent of convicted sex offenders are placed in the community on probation. The remainder are in the Department of Corrections or Community Corrections. Offenders may be caught for one type of offense but be at a high risk to commit another type. Crime of conviction is only one indicator of risk.  The offender's residence must be verified quarterly by the Denver Police Department. The full sex offender registration list is available by calling the Denver Police Department Identification Bureau at<PHONE_NUMBER>. Convicted felons and those with multiple convictions are posted online at denvergov.org slash police.   Now here's a look at the newest sexually violent predator living in Denver. Here's an overview of the registered sex offenders currently living in Denver. There are 2,598 total living within city limits. In Denver Police District 3 there are 381. Precinct 323 has 76 registered sex offenders. Of those 52 have felony convictions and 24 have misdemeanor convictions. Sean Patrick King is a sexually violent predator currently living in Denver. He's 43 years old and was born on March 14, 1978.  He's currently living at 94 44 East Gerrard Avenue number 12 in the Hamden neighborhood of Denver. Schools located within one mile of this offender include Shoemaker Elementary at 33 33 South Havana Street, Hamilton Middle School at 8600 East Dartmouth Avenue, Home Elementary at 3185 South Willow Street. Parks located within one mile of this offender include Hensel Park Highline Canal, Hamden Heights Park, Kennedy Municipal Golf Course, Golden Key Park, Hutchinson East Park, Kennedy Soccer Complex. Bus routes located within one mile of this offender include Route 105 Hamden Avenue and Dayton Street, Hamden Avenue and South Akron Street, Hamden Avenue and South Yosemite Street, Route 73 Hamden Avenue and South Yosemite Street.  He's currently on parole and registered with the Denver Police Department on July 8, 2021 to 94 44 East Gerrard Avenue number 12 in the Hamden neighborhood of Denver. Past charges against this offender include impersonation. Sean Patrick King has been determined to sexually violent predator after meeting the following criteria. Criteria 1 age 18 or older on the date of the offense or under 18 and tried as an adult. The offender was age 19 at the time of the offense. Criteria 2 the crime must have been committed honor after July 1, 1997 and convicted honor after July 1, 1999.  The offender was convicted on October 1, 1999 for sexual assault on a child. Criteria 3 the relationship to the victim was one of the following. Victim was a stranger to the offender or the offender established or promoted a relationship with the victim primarily for the purpose of sexual victimization. All three victims were 13 year old females. The offender was known to the victims. Criteria 4 positive results or the passing of a risk assessment instrument administered by probation parole staff and a qualified treatment evaluator. Positive results include an assessment for the presence of a mental abnormality, a level of denial regarding the offense, treatment appropriateness and motivation, presence of sexual deviant interests. The offender was evaluated by the Colorado State Board of Parole with positive results, determining him to be a sexually violent predator.


Welcome! Are you afraid of syntactic trees? Do terms like subcategorization or thematic roles frighten you? Have you ever been confused by terms such as adjuncts or compliments? Well if this is so, here is the right linguistic option for you that will help to overcome all your fears. The VLC repository, VLC 106 syntax part 1, our gentle introduction to theoretical syntax. If you have an account on the OER VLC website which is of course free, accessing the repository is simple. Just log in with your personal data and you will find the repository on your personalised dashboard or in your course overview. A click on the bottom of the VLC 106 tile leads you to the repository start site where you have access to all modules starting with a preliminary section with advice and help on how to use the units. And here are the current content units of VLC 106. As you can see we have introductory units that look at syntactic categories, syntactic functions and provide a general overview of the term grammar. Starting with an introduction to generative grammar we then discuss the general principles of phrase structure and those of X-bar syntax, the most well-known formalism for the hierarchical presentation of constituent structure. An overview of the lexicon as the second big component of any modern grammar and a discussion of the most well-known variants of generative grammar concludes this introductory repository. The list of units is updated and quality assured on a regular basis. By the way, by the way in our second syntax repository VLC 107 which builds upon 106 the specific components and mechanisms of different generative grammars as well as the principles of computational syntax will be discussed in detail. And our teaching and learning concept well studying online on the virtual linguistics campus simply means go through each unit at your own pace, tick off an activity you have worked through and make use of as many VLC options as possible. And if you don't know what to do first use the how to proceed options at the beginning of each unit. And as most of you know each unit should be finished with a mastery test where you can earn your personal VLC batch. Maybe you prefer using your mobile device. Well if so feel free to download the Moodle app, log in and study where and whenever you want. Well that's it. The rest is up to you. Thanks for your attention and see you on the virtual linguistics campus.


I've been going grey since I was 18 and over the years it's slowly been getting more and more noticeable. To help with this I wanted to try and lighten my hair naturally without bleach or chemical dyes to help make the grey hairs seem less noticeable among my dark brown hair. I've tried using an apple cider vinegar spray in the past to give my hair natural highlights but this time around I wanted to try something a little different. I've read about the lightening effects of lemon juice on hair in many articles and blog posts and as I had a whole heap of lemons lying around the house, I thought I'd go with that. I started off using a 50-50 mix of freshly squeezed lemon juice and water which I then sprayed all over my hair until it was saturated in the solution. I then combed it through to ensure no strand was left uncovered and to help create a more even coating on my hair so I didn't end up with patches. Then I went and sat outside in the sun for 15 to 20 minutes. I picked my times of day aiming for midday to 1 o'clock when the sun was at its strongest so the lightening effect would be more intense. After sitting out in the sun I left the spray on my hair for another hour or two after that then washed my hair with a natural shampoo. I did this three times a week for about one month but then the weather started to change and it became really rainy after that where there would be only a few sunny or overcast days in between days of rain. I found that without the sunlight the lemon juice didn't have as much effect on my hair so I decided to crank it up a bit and use something a little stronger. After a month of using lemon juice and water to lighten my hair with little result I turned to hydrogen peroxide. Now for warning, hydrogen peroxide is a manufactured chemical however it does occur naturally in nature but in very small amounts. It is formed when oxygen in the atmosphere reacts with water to form hydrogen peroxide. While hydrogen peroxide is weaker than bleach it does have a similar effect on hair though to a much more milder extent. It can damage the cuticle which may lead to breakage, split ends and frizz if not used carefully though. To counteract this effect, I applied a coconut oil hair mask to my hair two to three times a week to help hydrate and prevent breakage and split ends while I was lightening my hair with the spray. Okay so this is the result after about three months of on and off dyeing my hair with lemon juice. At the beginning when I was still at the end of summer I was still like going out in the sun every day but it's just been raining constantly for the past few months like it on and off just probably having one or two sunny days here in there like today is the first sunny day we've had in about two weeks. So I haven't been able to go out in the sunlight and use the lemon juice to really lighten it but it's I don't even know if it's done too much can't really tell especially because I'm not out in the sunlight it works better when you have the sun heating your hair you can sort of see the highlights a lot better but this is what it looks like so far after about two to three months of just doing on and off so I thought I'd just crank it up a notch and I'm going to use lemon juice, water and a little bit of 3% hydrogen peroxide and just put a little bit of that in my spray bottle and then I'm going to spray this directly onto my hair and just saturate it so it's covered and then I'm just going to comb through the Peroxide solution to make sure it evenly coats and then I'm going to go sit outside for 45 minutes in the sun While it's out before the clouds come over and the rain comes back I'm going to do that as much as I can again trying to do it every day and Hopefully over the next few months it will be much more noticeable the lightening effect Because so far it hasn't been as noticeable with the lemon juice and again I think it's because I haven't been able to really do it every day constantly Though it might be able to show you a little bit I can't tell in this lighting. It would be better if I could do it every day So we'll try that and I'll let you know how it goes I mixed a little of the 3% hydrogen peroxide into my lemon juice and water solution and Spritz that all over my hair to saturate it Then I combed the mix through my hair to evenly coat it and set outside for 15 to 20 minutes in the sun at midday As hydrogen peroxide is stronger than lemon juice It isn't essential to sit outside in the sunlight as the lightening effect will still occur regardless I Did this every few days for about three months and this was the result If you choose to try this hairspray solution Please ensure you test a small amount of this spray on yourself before spraying it all over Just to make sure that no adverse reactions occur and that you're happy with the resulting color This lightning process works best when done over several days It won't be effective if done only once the key is consistency I Started this hair lightning process towards the start of last year But didn't commit to it for more than a week as life got a little busy for me and other commitments came in front So I let it go for a while until a few months ago When I started it up again, and this was when I noticed great results with it And that is how I lightened my hair naturally without chemical bleach. I hope you enjoyed the video Thank you so much for watching. I hope you're having a wonderful day or night wherever you are in the world I send you all my love and I'll see you soon again
