The Equitable Life Assurance Society presents This Is Your FBI. This Is Your FBI. The official broadcast from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Presented as a public service by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society's representative in your community. H.O. In a few minutes, two Equitable Society policy holders will tell you how A.H.O. saved them from a mortgage foreclosure. A.H.O. means Assured Home Ownership. It's a home-saving plan offered by the Equitable Life Assurance Society. It combines a low-cost first mortgage with life insurance protection. Result? A mortgage that's practically foreclosure proof. Listen carefully to the Equitable Society's middle commercial. You'll get full information on this ideal plan for homeowners offered by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. Tonight's FBI file, The Larsonous Land Lady. The crime situation in the United States today is one which gives pause even to the most optimistic among us. For the records gathered in the past 12 months by the Federal Bureau of Investigation show that not only were more crimes committed last year than the year before an increase which placed the number of major crimes at over the 1,600,000 mark but also saw a greater number of repeaters arrested. In the language of law enforcement, a repeater is one who's arrested and who has a previous arrest record. Last year, more than 54% of those arrested by the members of your FBI and by the members of local police departments belonged in that category. No further proof should be needed that it is impossible to convince the real criminal the one who seeks to make his living at it. That crime does not pay. The usual progression in those records is that the first arrest comes at an early age and in a few years the side of one long sheet of paper is filled with small notations. Notations which read convicted March 13th, 6 months convicted December 10th, one to five years and so they go with the criminal never giving up always striving to commit that impossible thing a perfect crime.  It is early afternoon inside the farmhouse two women sit reading. A grey haired man is standing by the window. He turns to one of the women and says, Julia. Yes, well done. Someone coming up the walk. Oh, it must be Mr. Lincoln. Who's Mr. Lincoln? Lily, must you know everything? No, I'm curious too. Curiosity killed the cat, Wilbur. Lily, go let him in. Okay. Is this Mrs. York's health farm? Well, ask the man in, Lily. Come on in. Oh, thanks. Are you Mr. Lincoln? Yeah, that's right. This is Miss Fulton, Mr. Lincoln. Hello. Miss Fulton. Oh, yes, and that's Mr. Norton. Oh, hi. Hello. Come with me into the next room, please. All right. Go ahead. Thank you. Have a chair? Yeah, thanks. Now, Mr. Lincoln, before I rent you a room, I'll have to explain certain rules of the house. We absolutely bar three types of people. Huh? Like who? Kidnappers, blackmailers and firebugs. Oh. May I ask why you came here? I robbed a bank. Oh, nice. Did you get a lot of money? 20,000 bucks. You're hot, I suppose. Real hot. You'll find our temperature very helpful. Well, those people I just met. Your fellow boarders. Mr. Norton came here to hide out 10 years ago, and like the place so well, he became a permanent guest. How about the dame? What's her reckon? Beauty parlors. She works in them? No, she holds them up. Oh. Oh, one other thing, Mr. Lincoln. Yeah, what's that? No mail. Why not? The house rule. Well, I'm going to hear from my brother. Have him address you, care of general delivery in Phillipsville. Okay. Can I see my room? Surely it's out back here. Come along. Say, uh... Yes?  That's right. What was your touch? Well, I don't like to seem immodest, but in my younger days I was known as Queen of the Forgers. In fact, I'm still wanted by the police in seven states. Three weeks later, at a nearby FBI field office, Special Agent Jim Taylor is just greeting Agent Fred Austin. Oh, Fred. Hi, Jim. Good to see you again. You just found out this morning you were being assigned here. Why didn't you let me know? I wasn't sure of myself until two days ago. That's going to be nice working on a case with you again. Sit down. Sit down. I'll fill you in on the background. Good. Three weeks ago, a woman named Mrs. Horace Jefferson went to the local police and they sent her up here. She told me that she had been extorted by a man named John Lincoln. When? Oh, she had made a payment of $20,000 that day in cash. In return, she was to get some rather indiscreet letters that she had written to this Mr. Lincoln. Did she get the letters? No. No. That's why she came up here. I wish I could work up some sympathy for her, Jim, but I'm getting a little tired of having people pay extortioners and then come to us. Well, after the talk we had, I don't think she's likely to do any more, Fred. What about Lincoln? Is he using an alias? No. No. That's the name on his record. He had a previous record as an extortioner? A previous complaint about him. He's never been caught since he started this new tactic. What had he been arrested for? Oh, various forms of larceny. The extortion complaint was from a woman in Ohio. She got the same kind of letter Mrs. Jefferson received, one which threatened bodily harm. And after paying, she, too, failed to get her letters. Did Mrs. Jefferson know where Lincoln was living? Yeah, she told us. We almost caught him before he checked out of the hotel. Then inadvertently, we almost caught him again. What do you mean? Well, there was a hit-and-run accident about 10 miles north of here on the highway. Local police set up a roadblock near Phillipsville to try and find the car that was involved. Mm-hmm. Well, Lincoln was on a bus that was stopped by the roadblock. He must have thought the police were looking for him because he got off the bus and ran for it. How did you find out it was Lincoln? Well, the bus driver told the police, and they examined the baggage of the man that left behind. The extortion letters were in his police. Any idea where he went? Oh, none at all. Where do we go from there, Jim? I don't know, Fred. I've written to the local police in every city where Lincoln was ever arrested. I requested copies of their records on him. Good. Maybe we can get a lead from one of them Yes, Julia. Want to see a pretty signature? Look. See the barrel. Well, don't you think it's good? Julia, I want to say something. Yes? I've been very comfortable here all these years. I've enjoyed you. I've enjoyed your guests. What is it, Wilbur? Well, I'm afraid the time has come for me to leave. Why? Did you see this magazine section of the Sunday paper? No. There's a whole page about Mr. Lincoln. Oh, that's nice. Julia, he isn't a bank robber. He's wanted for extortion. Heavens, I can't believe it. Mr. Truth, look here. Well, I declare, where is he now? Out for a walk with Lily. Well, the minute he returns from the walk, I shall order him to pack and leave. Cigarette, Lily? No, thanks. Hey, we ought to be going to the house. It's almost supper time. OK. Well, let's see the rest, Ellen. About me? Yeah. Well, it's all pretty much the same. After the first beauty shop stick-up, I decided to stay in that field. That's what I've been doing ever since. Oh, I see. You know, well, I don't want this to sound like a beef, but if I had it to do over again, I'd have gone to high school. Even to college. Instead of wasting all that time with the gun. Don't sound wasted to me. Yeah, but I could have been learning stuff. Getting smart. With a good education, I could be stealing big. Could be. Oh, go ahead. Thanks. Oh, hi, Mr. Norton. Mrs. York wants to see you. What about? Oh, she'll tell you herself. Julia? Yes, Wilbur? They're back. I'm coming. What's all this about? Well, you'll see in a minute, Miss Foken. Mr. Lincoln. Yeah? I'm going to have to ask you to leave. What? Why? Look at this. Why? This article in the newspaper. It's about him. Well, let me see that. Imagine him trying to pass himself off as a respectable bank robber.  Yeah, that's right. We have no room here for your kind. Look, I'm paying my rent, ain't I? There are more important things than money. Good for you, Julia. Mrs. York. What? Don't you think you're being kind and narrow-minded? I do not. There's lots of things worse than extortion. I'll be the judge of that. Oh, wait a minute. I'm not leaving, Grandma. Oh, man, this is my farm. You don't want to lose it, do you? You could if I blew a whistle on you. Oh, no. The cops had moved right in on this whole setup. You mean you'd turn her in? That's right. Scoundrel. Huh? Do I stay, Grandma? Yes. What about the tiller-tap room? Yes, Jim. Anything come in on the Lincoln alarm? Not as of about five minutes ago. And I think we have to make a trip. Where to? Well, I read those arrest records I got on Lincoln. I learned that he's got a brother named Marty. The first time Lincoln was arrested, this brother posted bail for him. Where does he live? Well, at that time, he was at an address in Pittsburgh. I called the Pittsburgh office and I asked them to check on him. Get a report back yet? Yeah, they found he'd moved to a hotel in Cincinnati. I called the Cincinnati office. They tried to locate him there. No luck again. Missed him by a couple of months. Hotel manager said that all he knew is the brother told him he was moving to Mid-City. What does his brother do? As far as we can find out, he's legitimate. At least he has no record. How about the Mid-City police? I've teletyped them and asked them to start a search. While they're doing that, let's take a plane and get out there. You're not getting as much milk out of her as you used to, Junior. Well, I guess maybe she's getting a little old. Mrs. York! Mrs. York! Something wrong, Lilith? John's gone. Mr. Lincoln? Yeah. I knew that. Huh? He checked out this morning. He what? Best news I've heard in years. Wendy, leave. About an hour ago. Oh. Lily, there are more fish in the sea than him. I'm going back to the house. I'll see you later. I didn't think you'd be able to get rid of him this quick, Julia. It was easy. How'd you do it? I read his mail. Oh, that helped. Well, he got a couple of letters from his brother. His brother's the one who's holding the extortion money for him. The $20,000? Mm-hmm. How'd you know that? It was right in one of the letters. Oh. So I practiced the brother's handwriting, and then I wrote a letter to Mr. Lincoln, making believe it was his brother who wrote it. I sent it to a friend of mine who lives in Mid-City, and he mailed it back. That's where the brother lives? Yes. What did you say in the letter that made him get out so quick? I said the coast was clear, and that he should come to Mid-City. Oh, he's going to be quite surprised when he finds his brother didn't write that letter. John Lincoln's got more than one surprise coming to him. What do you mean? I also forged a letter to his brother. What for? To have him send the $20,000 in extortion money here by parcel post. Oh, he'll never do that to you. That was silly. You think so? It arrived this morning. To tonight's file which shows how your FBI protects American citizens and American homes. Now, a typical case from the files of the Equitable Life Assurance Society. Let's have Mr. and Mrs. Howard Farnham tell you about it. Last winter, a car skidded into Howard's car. Well, Howard had to spend almost two months in the hospital. I'm a salesman on commission. My income dropped to nothing a week. Then our mortgage payment came due, and not one sent in the bank, and then, well, Howard, you tell them. Well, I suddenly remembered the cash fund in my Equitable Assured Home Ownership Plan. My Equitable Society representative had told me it could be used when emergencies like sickness or unemployment threatened home ownership. The cash fund in our plan not only covered the mortgage payment, but helped with the hospital bills. You see, the Farnham's Equitable Assured Home Ownership Plan combines a low-cost first mortgage with life insurance protection. The insurance element creates the emergency cash fund. This fund may also be used to pay off the mortgage well ahead of schedule. Right. By using this fund, many 20-year mortgages have been paid off in about 15 years. Under the Assured Home Ownership Plan, if the owner dies, the Equitable Society not only cancels the mortgage, but also returns to the widow every dollar her husband had paid to reduce the principal. Finally, during its life, the mortgage draws interest at only 4%. And there's a liberal allowance to cover title search, lawyer's fees, and other closing costs. So, for many reasons, a man may consider himself lucky. If his health, age, income, and the location of his home, enable him to qualify for an Equitable Assured Home Ownership Plan. For full information, see your Equitable Society representative or write care of this station to the Equitable Society. The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. And now back through the FBI file, The Larsonous Landlady. The apparent lack of sympathy for Mrs. Jefferson, the extorted woman, on the part of the two special agents is not, as you might imagine, a callousness brought on by association with a great number of extortion cases. It couldn't be. Because every special agent is trained to regard every violation as being of equal importance. No crime is given less attention than any other. And no criminal is searched for with any less diligence than another. However, the special agents of your FBI would be something less than human if they did not regard the actions of Mrs. Jefferson with some annoyance. The Federal Bureau of Investigation has long been joined with other law enforcement agencies in trying to educate the public to the fact that any money you turn over to the extortioner is only a down payment. There is no attempt made to total the amount of money paid every year to extortioners because the figures are impossible to obtain. However, it seems safe to say that it runs heavily into the millions and that not one extortioner in a hundred has ever been satisfied with one payment. On this program tonight we repeat the advice given before. No matter what it is that you may be trying to hide should anyone attempt to extort any money from you under threat of exposure tell him you will pay. Make an appointment to meet him and then call your local police. Tonight's file continues at Mid City Police Headquarters. Fred, can I come in on the Lincoln alarm? No, Jim. Oh, I learned one thing while I was out. What's that? John Lincoln has been here in Mid City. Whether he still is is another question. How do you know he is here? I went over to see his brother. He told you? No, he said he hadn't seen John in a year. Then how? Well, I saw him in his office. Well, when I left there I decided to check at his home. And? There wasn't anyone in his apartment but when I showed John Lincoln's picture to the doorman of the building he said that he recognized him. From where? He said he'd been there just this morning. Sounds like we're getting someplace. Well, the doorman then told me that John had left a little while after he arrived. Did you have a surveillance set up in case he returns? No. The doorman said he called a cab for John and he knows the cabby pretty well. Good. We can find where he went from his brother's. We might be able to pick him up pretty quickly. Oh, Fred, I wish you'd go down and re-interview the brother. What for? Tell him the things we know. See if he'll change his mind and cooperate with us. Okay. Meanwhile, I'll stay here and wait for a call from the doorman. He said he'd phone as soon as he located that cabby. Anybody here? Who's John? Where is everybody? I... I thought you'd gone. I came back. Why'd you leave without telling me? I'll explain that later. Where's Grandma? She went to the movies. Old man Norton with her? Yeah. I'm glad you did come back. I had to. Grandma clipped me for my bundle. What? She took me for 20 Gs. How? She wrote a letter to my brother. Asked him to send all my money here. But why should he...? She wrote it in my handwriting. Oh. I came here to collect. You'll have a tough job getting it away from her. Really? You got a gun? Sure, I got a gun. What am I, a dressmaker? Let me have it. Why? I might need a little convincer when they come back. Well, it's pretty small. Does it shoot? Sure. Then it's big enough. Look, honey, told me the other day you want to graduate into a higher line of larceny. Isn't that right? That's right. Well, you work along with me on this. You helped me get the 20 Gs back. You just found yourself a partner. Did you make another trip, Fred? Why? I finally got to talk to the cab driver after the dormin located him. Did he remember John Lincoln? Yeah. Said he took him out to the airport. Good. Well, I went to the airport. I talked to every ticket clerk on duty. Any of them recognize the picture? Yes, one of them sold him a ticket earlier in the day. Why, too? Phillipsville. That's the place where Lincoln jumped the bus and left his luggage. I know. Oh, did you get anything from his brother that might be a lead? Just something that ties in with your story. Oh, what's that? He finally decided to cooperate with us. He told me that while John was hiding out, he wrote to him care of general delivery, Phillipsville. Huh? He didn't know anything else about the hideout? No. And I think he was telling me all he knew. And there's only one thing left for us to do, Fred. Let's take the next plane to Phillipsville. Good morning, Fred. Now, no one remembers seeing Lincoln today. That could mean he's still here in Phillipsville. Yes, but where? Did you check the cab line? Yeah, no luck. What about the bus that runs into the city? The driver who met that plane isn't back yet. Fred, why don't you wait here for him? Where are you going? To the post office to see if Lincoln's been there today. Any of the post office, Jim? No. The guy who was there a couple of hours ago. He was looking for a package that was addressed to him. The postmaster told him it was picked up by a woman named Mrs. Julia York. Who is she? The postmaster didn't know. I checked local records. I got nothing on her. But what now? Let's check every hotel and rooming house in town. I covered every hotel. No luck, Jim. Fred, I think this envelope might be the lead we want. Where did you get that? At the bus company. What's in it? The remains of an eyeglass lens that John Lincoln broke when he jumped off that bus at the roadblock. Let's go. Glad you liked it. Well, but I just don't like gangster pictures. All that shooting and killing just makes me shudder. Well, they are pretty spicy. Goodness, you'd think they'd make a picture once in a while about... Well, someone like my dear departed husband.   There'd be romance in that, Wilbur. High adventure. It would show that... Well, the lights are on in the house, Julia. Oh, well, Lily probably left them on. She may be sitting up reading. I suppose. Go ahead, Julia. Thank you, Wilbur. Greetings, Grandma. What? Surprise. Not necessarily. Lots of times folks fall in love with this place and just want to come back. That's right, Julia. There's a tug here. Yeah, I felt it. I'm... I'm complimented that you returned, Mr. Lincoln, but I'm sorry to announce that we've rented your room. Quit stalling, Mrs. York. He knows all about what you did. What's she talking about, Wilbur? I have no idea. You think this will give you an idea? Mr. Lincoln, the rules of this house do not permit the use of firearms in the living room. Get up the dough, Grandma. You want your rent money back? He wants the dough you clipped from him. The dough his brother sent to you. Lily, are you on his side? What if I am?  Look, I've had enough of this. Not much when it comes to guns, but unless I get some action, I'm pulling this trigger. Throw it on the floor. Go on. That's it. Good for you, young man. Who are you? Special agent of the FBI. All of you here are under arrest. John Lincoln was found guilty in federal court and sentenced to serve five years for extortion. With his arrest, the other guests at the hideout were identified and it was found that they were wanted in a dozen different states. Combining the knowledge that John Lincoln wore thick glasses with the fact that he had stayed in the vicinity of Phillipsville for three and a half weeks, led Special Agent Taylor to question every optometrist in the area. Since this was done at night and because it had to be done in a hurry, the two Special Agents were forced to track down each of the people on their list. Some were at the movies, some at restaurants, some visiting friends, but finally the two agents located an optometrist who, upon being shown John Lincoln's picture, positively identified the blackmailer as having been one of his customers. After a quick trip back to the store the delivery slips. Special Agents Taylor and Austin learned the address to which the new glasses had been delivered. In that manner, your FBI was able not only to capture an extortioner and to put out of business the hideaway for criminals run by the old lady, but also to apprehend two other criminals wanted by the local police and thus further to protect you, the American people, from the onslaughts of these particular criminals. We will tell you about next week's exciting case from the files of your FBI. Now one last word to homeowners about the kind of mortgage you get in the equitable society's assured home ownership plan. First, it's a mortgage that's practically foreclosure proof. Right. If the owner dies, the mortgage is automatically canceled. During his life, the cash fund protects against emergencies such as illness and unemployment. Second, it's a mortgage that draws interest at only 4%. So what are you waiting for? See your equitable society representative soon. For full information about the assured home ownership plan designed for you by the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. Next week, we will dramatize another case from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a story revealing the operations of two contriving female criminals. It's subject, larceny. It's title, The Lonely Hearts Racket. The incidents used in tonight's Equitable Life Assurance Society's broadcast are adapted from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

horse with a speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty high old silver, the lone ranger. His faithful Indian companion, Tonto, the masked rider the planes fought crime and criminals throughout the early western United States. No one could match his strength and courage, his daring or resourcefulness. But it was his ability to judge character and his sense of fair play that made him the greatest champion of justice the West ever knew. And with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear, about of the past come the thundering hoof beats the great horse silver, the lone ranger rides again. Come on! A man stood in the living room of a small ranch house. One sheriff, Sim Wheaton, was a grizzled veteran of the law. The second, short, stout and red faced was a local banker, Gabe McMasters. The third man was in his thirties, his name was Dan Marlin, and until this morning the ranch and the ranch house had belonged to him. All right, sheriff, what do I do? Just sign these papers before I got a mark, Dan.  I just wanted to...  I'm not going to make conversation with a pole cat. I'll go root one out from under the barn. I asked you a question, sheriff. What do I do? To sign where them crosses are. Why? Just makes everything legal, Dan. It shows you're turning your place over to Gabe Willem. Yeah? But I ain't. What choice you got? Half the way this year, pole cats roped and throwed me none at all. But just the same, I don't want nobody to think I ain't got objections to letting them steal my ranch. I don't want... Sheriff, I object to that, sheriff. He's the same as calling me a thief. You've been called a duffer. Don't see why you should be so touchy about it now. Nope, Dan. You don't savvy. I didn't mean these papers that show you was glad to lose your place exactly. They're just to fix it, so as after Gabe's foreclosed you can come back right after and try to claim it again by paying up what you owed him. Pay what I really owe? Or what he says I do? No, you won't hear. Well, we ain't going into all that again. Now cut it out. Maybe you just borrowed what you say you did, Dan. But all the records go to show you borrowed what Gabe says you did. Yeah, the sneak and crook forging them notes. Stop it! Well, he did. Now tell it so anytime and he wears a please. All right, do what you want. But first, sign them papers. Might as well, I reckon. No chance of me raising the cash to get the place back. Here's a pen. I brought mine along.  I'll use my own. Sheriff, push them papers over this way. Here you are. And the ink. Well, here goes. Here goes 20 years hard work. The sweetest piece of rangeland any man ever had. Here too? That's right. That's it. Put them papers in your pocket, Sheriff. And then let me ask you one question. Anything, Dan? We've always been friends. Shoot. Just exactly when does this place quit being mine and start being this critters? Why? Tomorrow noon, I take over this ranch.  Tomorrow noon? And it's mine up to then? Uh-huh. That's all I wanted to know. Hey, what are you going to do? Ow! Look on me. Look on me. Sheriff, make him stop. Out you go. Get out. Get up and make tracks, Gabe. Your trespass is on my property. Sheriff, arrest him. Arrest him. He kicked me off the porch. He kicked me. You jail him, Sheriff. Shucks, Gabe. I can't jail a fella for acting within his rights. What? The law can't stop a fella from throwing who he wants off his own place. And you said yourself this was Dan's till tomorrow. Come on. Climb in your buggy and let's go home. That night, two horsemen rode toward the Marlin Ranch. They held their mounts to a slow trot. And when they neared the ranch house, he's got a lamp burning whitey.  Oh, there, oh. I'll do the talking, Sieg. You stay with the horses and keep watch. Anybody comes along, yell. Sure. But if you find that mast down here, the ancient trail is, you start shooting. Right. Be right back. Open up. If that's you back again, Gabe, you better put up board and you break it. So get the time out. Well, I'll be. Whitey Barrett, is there a holdup? Come on in. Help yourself. Take anything you please. You won't be robbing me. You'll be robbing the banker. Yeah. That's what I heard. I reckon this ain't a holdup, though, or you wouldn't took the trouble to knock. What is it? What brought you down out of the hills? Got any objection if I have a little talk? I ain't proud. What's on your mind? Me and Sieg heard you got a pretty raw deal. I've heard telefellas have got better. Sit down. Pretty nice place you had here, Dan. The banker'd give you a chance to hang on for a rise in beef. You'd have been sitting pretty. Nice of you to figure out for me. That's all right. What you're planning on next? What you're going to do when you leave here? What's a fella usually do when he's my age and loses everything he had? Goes to work for the gent that's got it and likes it, I reckon. Some do. What do you mean? But then they've got the gumption to get even, don't. Whitey, just what are you getting at? I'm wondering if you're the kind that gets kicked around and takes it. Huh? Or if you've got the nerve to kick back. Meaning? That either you can go to work for 30 a month and found when you can get it. Or you can throw in with a couple of square shooting ombries like me and Sig. And let the other fellas do the work while you spend it. So that's your game. Well, why not? We can use you. You're handy with your irons. And there's plenty of jobs where just two fellas ain't enough. You want me to turn out low? Better, man, than you have. Whitey, I ought to. Don't go on. Why not? Dan Marlin riding the Owlhoot trail. That's a good one. Shake, Whitey. You've got your part. The following morning, the Lone Ranger returned to his camp after a scouting trip. Come on, old fellow. Hi, Kimosami. Hi. Oh, oh, there's a little bit. Oh, boy. Oh, there. Oh, look, all scout and saddle up. Ah, here's scout. I picked up Whitey in Six Trail again. This time, they're not going to give us a slip, huh? Where? Where pine them? I cut this sign just east of the creek and followed it to Dan Marlin's place. No one's there, and I had a chance to look around.  We go there? Yes. But how to? What matter? Reading their sign, there was one thing I couldn't understand. What path? Just the two of them rode to Dan's place. But three horsemen rode away. What other pattern? That's exactly what I'd like to know. What are they named, Dan? It looked as if it must have been him. But there was nothing to show. He'd been taken away by force. And if he went with them willingly, I'd like an explanation. I've certainly never heard that Dan's friendly with crooks. Saddle fix. Ready? You ready? Let's go. Come on, Silver. Get him on, scout. Hurry, old boy. Hurry. The famous masked writer of justice and his faithful Indian companion picked up the trail once more and headed for the hills. Meanwhile, Dan had made himself at home in the outlaw's hideout. It was toward noon that while he called to Sigg, and... Hey, Sigg. Yeah, whitey. Better throw some dirt on that fire. It'll be hitting the saddle for a long. Yeah. How'd you like it here, Dan? Pretty snug hideout, huh? Ain't bad. What's this about riding? Going somewheres? Yeah, the three of us. Huh? We ain't the ones to waste time, Dan. You'll be finding that out. We got a job already picked. Fact is, we've had our eye on it for quite a spell. Couldn't touch it, though, till we had a third fella. What is it? One, you ain't going to object to it all. Yeah? The bank in town. Deepic Masters Place. We're busting it wide open. What's that? Sure. But we'll ride out of town with our saddlebags full of more cash, and we can spend it a year. But just a second. How's it sound to you, Dan? All right, then. Gabe gets into you for about $10,000. You turn right around and help yourself to twice as much. I thought all you fellas done was rustle some cattle. Did, mostly. That's penny-andy stuff. Now we'll go for the big money. Hey, but listen, fellas, you can't rob the bank. Why not? But you got to get it, huh? We asked you to join up, because we figured you were just the army. It'd be glad to take on a job like that. Gabe's a crook. What happens to him, I sure don't care. Then what do you mean? But that ain't what I'm thinking of. Don't you fellas savvy that if the banks robbed, Gabe wouldn't be the only one to lose by it? No. Gosh, every ranch in the county is tied in so close without their bank. If it went bust, they'd go bust right along with it. What's their toss? Well, most of the fellas that lose are my friends. Ain't turning yellow, are you?  That ain't the point. I'll turn outlaw, sure. But I ain't never going to harm nobody that I've worked with, and at with, and liked. That's out.  They're saddled. Dan's too? Sure. He'll come around. He'd better. I'll look whiny. There's plenty other ways to get some cash. Aren't you savvy when you joined up that I was boss? Go ahead and be boss. When a fella's boss's orders usually go. This is different. You're getting on that coyose of yours. You're riding with us to town. When we get there, you're helping us rob Gabe's bank. I tell you. And if your figure ain't, say so now, and we'll know where we stand. That's a good idea. I always did like to have my car just laying out the plane on the table. Why do you I'm not helping you? But that's only the half of it. Yeah? You and Sig ain't going either. You bust my friends, and I'll bust you. All right, you ask for it, mister.  You kids.  Take it. Sig, into the saddle. We've got to get out of here.    The outlaws raced out of camp. But less than half a mile away, the lone ranger and tanto had heard the volley of shots that marked the gunfight. They reigned in at the top of a rise. Then, tell them, no shots came from beyond that wood. Come on. Get them up, Scott. The Great Horse Silver Hoys! At the command of his master, the Great Horse Silver leaped forward. Scout followed hard behind. Together, they charged toward the woods. Not even the narrow broken trail to the trees could slow their speed. In less than a minute, they flashed to the open once more. The outlaw camp for the body of Dan Marlon lying beside the campfire lay before them. Oh, oh, there's no way. Oh, oh, there's no way. Oh, oh, there's no way. Whoever was here, tell them, they've gone. There, there's no way. Well, Dan Marlon, huh? In shock. Moral whitey's work. Whoever a man deserves to hang, he does, and he's partnered with him. Hello, Dan. Just a moment. I think there's life left in him. But if he'll live, I don't know. The curtain falls on the first act of our lone ranger story. Before the next exciting scenes, please permit us to pause for just a few moments. Now to continue our story. The lone ranger and tanto worked over the wounded man, stripping his shirt away, washing his wounds, and binding them. Finally, Dan's eyes opened. He groaned and tried to get up.  Oh, you're masked. Easy, man, easy. Lie back, rest. You're in pretty bad shape. Yeah, I'm, no, I can't. Hey, let me up. Get my horse. Let me up, I got a ride. Take it easy, Dan, take it easy. I can't. I got to stop him. Let me up. Please, please, Mask Man, let me up. Wait. Who is this you've got to stop? Whitey and Sigg. They're going to rob the bank. They're on the way there now, my horse. McMaster's bank? Yeah. And leave that to Tato and me. We'll handle it. Oh, I can't. Dan, I don't know why you're here. I don't know why you fought with Whitey and Sigg and were shot. But I do know this. You're in no condition to ride, and we'll not let you. You don't savvy. No? Oh, I guess I must have been loco. I was going to turn crooked. But then? Then what? Oh, I don't know. When they said they was going to hold up the bank, and I got to thinking of all my friends that had go bust, I just couldn't go through with it. I see. I told them I couldn't. I tried to stop them. They just blasted me down. I reckon when they pulled out, they figured I was dead. Dan, I don't believe you're crooked at heart. Oh, it was just it for a while there. I was so dogged, gone mad. I know. The banker cheated me, losing my place, everything I had, everything I'd worked for. But now? Oh, I'm sorry for it. I reckon I've been paid for it already.  Well, it takes a heap to down a Marlin. Now, I've got an idea. I'm going to be able to help you. Tunner, I'm riding to town alone. You'll stay here with Dan. Someone's got to look after him. Now, what do you do? What do you say? Give a head start. But Silver should be able to overtake them easily. If I want him to. What do you mean? Mister, what are you scheming? There's no time to explain now. Yes, Silver. But you'll have a part to play in this, Dan. And when I come back, I'll tell you just what it is. If you go where they're dangerous. Don't worry about me, old friend. But you can. I'll be safe enough. Take care of Dan until I return. When I do, there'll be action enough for all of us. Come on, Silver. Come on, old fellow. Come on. When Whitey and Sigg reached town, they found the Main Street deserted. The blazing heat of early afternoon had driven nearly all the townspeople with the shelter of their homes. The door of the bank was open. And from the street, the outlaws could see there were only a few customers inside. They congratulated themselves. They rode around to the back of the building. Then. Whitey, haven't we been at home? Talk low. Who's going to hear us? Ain't no wind in here in the bank here in bank. But why take chances? Now, Sigg, you listen to me. We leave the horse's ground hitch for a quick getaway. Yeah. Ain't nobody much on the street out front. Back doors always kept locked, so that's the way we'll have to go in. We're starting just a second. Keep close behind me and climb the porch and get inside quick as you can. Less time we take, less we're likely to be noticed. Right. Inside, I'll keep them covered while you gather up the cash. Most of it's in the safe, but during the day, it stands open. Soon as you've got everything, unlock the back door cause that's the way we're going out. It'll bring us right back here to our horses. Got all that straight? Sure. Then see you don't make no mistake. There ought to be three of us on this job, but it can't be helped. Come on, don't see nobody in the street closing the blacksmith shop. All right now, up the porch, inside, hurry. Now, get your guns out. Right. This is the hall of folks. Make a move and I'll blast you. The men and women in the bank backed away from party's guns. Sigg forced the cashier to hand over all the money in his cage. A moment later, he had cleaned out the safe, and then. Got the cash, Sigg? All set. Then unlock that door. Into the saddle. They're yelling for the war already. Come on. Head west, lady.    Get up. $40,000. Get after them, Sheriff. Get after them. All right, folks. We'll ride in the posse. I will. Then get your horses and follow me. If they get cleaned away, the whole town's bust. Jump, you high binders. Let's keep going. All right.   What's the matter? Pull up. Pull up with them rocks there. Give the horses a chance to get their wind and see if we're falling. Right. Oh, oh boy. Oh, there. Oh, there. Don't see them yet. They're too good a start on them. But they'll be along. How's your horse standing up? Good. This one here run for sundown. Any idea how much cash you picked up, Sigg? I'll show you. Stopped it all. Paid for money, gold, and silver in this year bag. Yeah. How's that look to you? That looks fine. What in? A mask, man. I've been waiting here for you. If you hadn't pulled up, I'd have stopped you. Why? No, you don't. Steady, Wendy. Well, you'll get the same. Who are you? Try and find out. Hey, the cash. He's leaving with me. Thanks for getting it for me. Hey, no. Hold on. Don't follow. Come on, Silver. Hey, you like it with that money? Shoot him. Drill him yourself. He knocked my gun out of my head. I'll get the skunk. I've even come close. Slime down off that horse and pick up your gun now. What will we do? No, we're going to get that cash back. Hey, look towards town. What? A posse. Come on, lay lettuce in that critter. We've got a travel.  Get up there. Come on. The outlaws raced after the masked man and away from the posse in the distance. But from the touch on his reins, Silver knew that this was not a time to show his greatest speed. For some reason, his master did not want to out-distance a pursuit. They're still keeping us inside, old boy. Not too fast now. Let this rise then over it, old boy. Come on, Silver. Come on. Hail, Silver. On they raced. The lone ranger, the outlaws, the posse, higher and higher into the hills. The distance between them remaining always the same. Quite in sync could see the masked man every moment. The posse often lost sight of the bank robbers. They could make no effort to hide their trail, and the sheriff urged his men off. They haven't got away yet. Keep riding then. Remember that we wore the banker off it. Meanwhile, Dan and Tonto had been waiting for the masked man in the outlaws' camp. One hour, two hours. Then, faintly in the distance, they heard a clear call. Tonto, you hear that? Ah, me hear it. The masked man. Him ride, he pass. Just look at him come. That horse is making light and looks slower than molasses. Tonto, help me up, huh? Help me set up. You stay still. But thunderous, you know what Tonto say. But I want to know what's happened. Mask man come, him tell you. Gornet, hey, masked man! Hi! You stopped them crooks from robbing the bank? Did you, masked man? Did you? Oh, oh, there's a man. Oh, boy. You didn't. Oh, blessed at all. But I did better. Here, that bag contains the money they stole. Huh? I told you I could catch them if I wanted to. But I didn't. I let them rob the bank. And when they'd taken the money, I took it from them. You rockin' crook. Hold on, Dan. You misunderstood me. I thought you were on a- Listen to me and do your thinking afterwards. What? Tonto, can those bandages be taken off Dan safely? Will it harm him if we do? Can we make it look as if he'd just gotten those wounds? Tonto, fix it. Here, what's going on? The Whitey and Sigg aren't far behind me. No? I'll let them keep me in sight. They'll try to get this money back. I don't savvy. A posse's coming behind them. Yeah? We'll wait here for Sigg and Whitey. They'll ride into our guns. You'll do exactly as I say. And when the posse arrives, it'll meet with a surprise. With only one thought in their minds, the recovery of the stolen money. Whitey and Sigg rode straight into the Lone Ranger's trap. Get up there. Get up there. The masked man went to there. That's near our whole hideout. Then we got him. We know these hills inside out. Get up there. Get up on that. Keep your eyes peeled, pirate. There he is. Where'd them sharks come from? Hey, look. A rescue. And the masked man's turning back.  I'm not Sigg. It's a trap. Let them have it. We've got to fight our way out. The sheriff and his posse were nearing the woods that concealed the camp, and the outlaws started to shoot it out. The roar of gunfire put fresh heart into the man, and they're all gone on ahead. Them fellas must have run into trouble. It's near that wood. Get them over on, boys. Maybe we got them. Get in the water. Get in the water. Come on. Hey, sheriff. What? The shooting stopped. So it has.  Get in the water. Get in the water. I'll just see him in a second if they cleared out again as soon as we get past these trees. Well, huh? Hey, fellas, look there. It's Dan Marlon. He's holding a gun on Sigg and Whitey. It was him stop them crooks. Yeah. Hold them, Dan. We'll be there in a second. Get it on. Come on. Get it on. Here's your prisoners, Sheriff. And here's James Cash. Take him both and welcome.  Yep. Hey, this is a trick. There was a mass man. And a ranch king. They trapped us. Then left Dan to hold us here till you fellas show up. Hey, you could both of you try to talk to once.  That's right.  Well, listen, Sheriff. You armbars can stop wasting your breath. That's too thin. There's too much evidence against it. Here's Dan, all shot up when you fellas stand with your hands in the air and the cash laying there on the ground. Nope, that story don't go down. Hey, we shot up. Dan, you done a swell job. Thanks, Sheriff. Even though it ain't true. Shucks, you're just being modest. You've done more on a swell job, Dan. You turned around and helped Gabe here, the armbar that was going to take over everything you own. Going to? I think he'll change his mind. How much you say it was, you really owed him? $1,000, not a penny more or less. Now, Sheriff, you look to your right hand and second. But I can't. I tell you what you're going to do. You're going to let Dan have back his ranch. When you've done that, you're going to give him time to pay what you got coming. No, I won't. It ain't fair. I haven't done it. Boy, did you hear that? You know what Gabe says? Dan almost gets killed saving his money in yours and the banker don't seem to appreciate it. No, fellas, wait. Wait just one second. Well? Boys, I, when the sheriff said that about giving Dan back his ranch just now, I, well, that is the, he took the words right out of my mouth.

Live from Las Vegas, it's theCUBE. Covering Dell Technologies World 2019. Brought to you by Dell Technologies and its ecosystem partners. Hi, Lisa Martin with theCUBE. Live day three of theCUBE's double set coverage of Dell Technologies World 2019. I'm with Student Miniman and we've got one alumni back. We've got Gil Schnurz and Senior Vice President and General Manager of the X-Rail. Gil, welcome back. Thank you, nice to be back. And it's Joe and Tal. You brought Nivroth, the CTO of Hadell Insurance, one of your successful customers. Niv, it's great to have you on the program. Thank you, great to be here. So, Niv, let's start with you. Give our audience an understanding of Hadell Insurance, where you're located, what it is that you do, and then we'll get into why you think Dell EMC is so fantastic. Hadell Insurance is an insurance company doing a life, non-life insurance. Very wide portfolio of business products and the insurance and investments in Israel. More than 5,000 employees and 3 million customers managing around 240 billion shackles in 2018. So it's a very innovative company to work in. So, Niv, interesting. Dell has a podcast, and I'm just giving a little plug here because at the gym this morning, the latest episode by Walter Isles talks about transformation going on in the insurance business. Some people think, oh, insurance has been around for a long time, I mean, back to the Roman era when they had some of this, but today, insurance is changing fast. Can you just at a macro level give us, what are some of the changes and stresses on the company and how's that impact your job? You know, it's funny you mentioned that in 2015, our CEO has declared an innovative program named Recalculating Routes. The purpose of the strategic plan was to take a rail from traditional insurance company to more digital transform, data transform. We as a rail has a brokers, the brokers are our sales persons, but once the customer ended the sales part, the onboarding part, he wanted a very more innovative service after that. The post-service part is very hard in insurance and we are investing a lot to make the post-service customer experience very, very advanced. We talk a lot about customer insurance. At every, sorry, customer insurance. Well, that's important too. Customer experience is what the word I was going for. It's essential, right? Because in 2019, customers of any type of product or service have so much choice. So talk to us from looking through that lens of delivering an outstanding customer experience. Obviously, your sales folks need to have innovative technology to deliver that outstanding customer experience, but when a company says we've got to transform digitally, we've got to stay ahead of the market and delight our customers, where do you start? Talk to us about maybe a phased approach that you're taking to digital transformation. Digital transformation is all about how customer experience feel like in your environment. So if a person entering your website and trying to do some post-service and running into some old, fashionable process that is very hard to him, and it's really fascinating to do that. So, and actually, if I look about what our approach about it, we're thinking about the digital transformation. We're thinking about how to take the onboarding part for our workers, the post-service for our customers to make the process, the services we are offering to our customers as easy as possible to just consume it. All right, so, Gil, let's bring you into the discussion here. You know, I think back, converged infrastructure, hyper-converged infrastructure, you've been riding the rocket ship that is VxRail. You know, digital transformation wasn't the leading use for that when we started. It was simplification, you know, driving that wave of virtualization. You know, we've heard VxRail everywhere in the discussion this week. You know, it was like, oh, all of these different cloud pieces, what's underneath them, VxRail? Help us connect the dots, the transformations that your customers are going, you know, where VxRail and the new solutions built with VxRail help enable your customers. Yeah, thanks to, you know, we talk about a digital transformation a lot. Reality is that many of the customers, not all of them are transformative, like Horell Insurance, right? Many of them look at HCI and VxRail as their next simple tech refresh. They see the agility, they see the economical benefits. But there is a growing majority of customers who look to this as transformational. And so that's where you see HCI and VxRail specifically in our case starting to grow beyond being an infrastructure for workloads to be an infrastructure for their hybrid cloud and multi-cloud environment. So what's so exciting about this show is because we've been, you know, we've been very successful and we were growing very fast, but by putting this building block in many of our customers' data centers, they've made the choice that will enable them to now embark on a more transformational strategy. And I think we demonstrated in the last two days that hybrid cloud is here and it's sellable, operational, it's, and with VxRail and the integration with VMR Cloud Foundation and the ability to add and burst into a cloud move workloads, it's here and it's now. I think that's what's nice about this whole thing. All right, so Gil, it's great for you to say it, even as an analyst, as media organization for us to say it, but what we love is you brought a customer here to tell us the reality as to, you know, where cloud fits into your overall discussion. You know, I would love your feedback as to what Gil's saying, what's the reality in your world and the impact on your org. I would connect the previous question to this one because it's like, it's very running on questions about it. So, you know, you're some of the customers, your expectation about the company is to do every operation from everywhere, a very easy way. And you know, the mobility and the digital transformation itself, all the mobile applications, all the things that's taking the customer experience to the next level, it really took the organization to a phase that I need to understand how to scalable the systems. So, in this journey, when you're looking about digital transformation, you must have an infrastructure that supports the scalability, the elasticity, the availability that the customer demands. You don't think of yourself, you enter in some e-commerce or big e-commerce customer and they will set you on the application. Sorry, sir. We currently offline do management reasons or maintenance reasons. That's the thing in 2019 you will not think about and it's not be acceptable. So, to do a scalability, our multi-cloud strategy in a role is to have an infrastructure free environment, to focus on the service applications and not to focus on the infrastructure management part. That's the big concerns of our IT teams was how to, to all day to care about support and metrics and compatibility and maintenance. And when you go into the private cloud environment, the private cloud environment, that's that VxRail on the bathrooms and Vimo Cloud Foundation on the top, allow the rail is to start the journey to a phase that said, okay, we're going to our infrastructure free roadmap. Tell us about the outcomes that, for example, go back to what we were talking about, your brokers who need to be able to deliver any service. I imagine they're out in the field sometimes with customers depending on the types of services that they need to deliver. What has been some of the feedback or maybe the outcomes for the brokers? Are they able to do their jobs faster, deliver quotes faster to customers? What are some of the exciting outcomes that you're seeing as a result of the infrastructure that Dell EMC is helping you to establish? You know, part of the diggers as a formation, we're talking about microservice and a lot of old virtual machines, I'm saying that. So service applications on the path was virtual machine, now your microservice is, why are you microserviceing it? Because in 8 a.m., perhaps there is 20 person that's selling your policies, but perhaps on the 11 after some TV show said something about the rail, you can have thousands of customers entering to your website. So how you can support that? So again, brokers need the tools to support the operation, the sales operations, and the customers need the tools to support the post service for themselves, how to claim, how to do claims, how to do more preventive aspects of insurances. So basically, again, when you're looking about what exciting is, the reality that I'm seeing a process of a customer and he's saying, wow, that was easy. So we're taking the digger transformation to make our customer experience better. All right, Gil, help us zoom out a little bit. We talked to one customer here, but the business overall, you know, joint product development between Dell EMC and the VMware teams is something that we think was transformational and helped accelerate the HCI growth. What are some of the big drivers? You know, what's changed in the business? And, yeah, give us the overall update. Yeah, look, I think that when we discovered that working together pays off through our joint leadership and through examples like VxRail and others, we started looking at every part of the business and how collaboration could enable us to add even more value. And, you know, value translates into finances and there's a very strong interest. And so this recent innovation we've introduced with integration with Cloud Foundation, people don't realize how much work goes into integrating two products. Regardless, even between one company, you're talking about engineers' co-location. You're talking about joint sprints. You're talking about test-fest design workshop, customers' interaction.  You deliver a new outcome that didn't exist before. Now with VCF and VxRail, you can have a full lifecycle management of the entire VMware stack and the entire hardware stack, drivers, firmware and everything, lifecycle together. That's a very, very impressive outcome and it's ready now. And I really think that the shift is going to be more than just HCI. People are going to start embracing the full stack because they can, because we're simplifying it. In addition to that, I think it's important to understand or I would like the people to know that the other way we're taking the HCI stack and the full stack is into much more intelligence. So machine learning and predictability all the way eventually to remediation. And so in this show, we introduced the analytical consulting engine for VxRail and we put it out there as a field try, as an early access. The thought processes, we have a very large amount of intelligent customers that could tell us where they need this to take in. What's exciting about it is that every product these days is trying to be intelligent. Because we have a full stack, we have a lot of context, a lot of things we could correlate. So we're very excited about this and we're hoping that our customers will participate in that design. I'm sure HRIL will as soon as we can give it to them the access. And not only full stack, but making it much more intelligent. I think it's going to be a very exciting year till next time we speak. Yeah, Hralli, have a seat. Yeah, they'll say about it. You know, customers ask us as an organization, understand that public cloud allowed us to be infrastructure free. And now they said, okay, some workloads are good for public cloud and some workloads are good for private cloud. And the multi-cloud approach that VM Cloud Foundation gives us, the infrastructure free, to just focus on the services. You need to understand the manageability of traditional infrastructure is very cost effective, it's very cost effective. Why? You need to manage, you need to support it. You need to upgrade the framer, the buyers, the drivers and all the time to be concerned about if everything is supportable, how you do that all the job. And again, once you're taking the VxRail as a hardware platform for that and the VM Cloud Foundation as a software, you're getting a complete lifecycle that assists you to just focusing about to be a service broker, just add new services to the existing environment. Well, Niv, thank you so much for stopping by theCUBE and sharing with Stu and me where you guys are on this digital transformation journey, the successes you've achieved so far with Dell EMC. Gil, again, always great to have you on the program and we can't wait to hear more next year. Maybe Ace is going to give us some really insightful insights that will be groundbreaking. I believe so, thank you very much. Yes, first Stu Miniman, I'm Lisa Martin. You're watching us on theCUBE live from day three of our coverage of Dell Technologies World. Thanks for watching.


Hey, it's Anfa, you're watching quick request with pure black screen, green screen effect. That should look very weird. Oh, it doesn't. I was asked the question in a YouTube comment under one of my videos. How do you filter MIDI notes so that from a single MIDI track you can drive multiple tracks where you have synthesizers making drum sounds if the synthesizer doesn't have a MIDI note filter built in. So in that video I was using a ZinatsubFX to basically get MIDI data from one track and then respond to only specific note for each track of the drum kit and then each track would play kick, snare, etc. And the ZinatsubFX synthesizer has a MIDI filter, a MIDI note filter, so you can say which part of the MIDI keyboard the synthesizer will respond to. So you can limit that to a single note. So when you play on your keyboard, all the synthesizers are receiving all MIDI notes you play, but they filter that themselves and only play each one on a single key. So you have a kick, a snare, and a hi-hat, etc. Helm, for example, doesn't have such something like that, and many synthesizers don't have this functionality, actually most don't. So in this video I want to show you how can you do that with a MIDI filter plugin. So the first thing is we need some drums. I'm gonna create three Helm instances. I'm gonna call this Helm. These are MIDI tracks. We could actually use MIDI buses because we won't store any MIDI data on these. So these are just our presets. You can't really make a clip here because this is not what we're gonna do. We will have just one MIDI track and this is gonna be the drums. Yeah, and just a single MIDI track. So now I will make this track. Let's do this. I'm going to go for the output from the drums MIDI bus rooting grid, and here we have in the rooting grid we have left-right audio channels and the first MIDI channel. So I want to feed that MIDI channel into outdoor buses and all three Helm will receive the MIDI input. So now if I put something here and you can see all three MIDI tracks play the note, sorry, that all three MIDI buses play this MIDI note because being fed to it to them. So now I'm gonna quickly make some drum patches so we can have three distinct sounds. Now I'm gonna make a simple pattern. So we will kick snare and hi-hat. Right? Now we want these three MIDI buses to filter this so the kick only reacts to note C4, the snare only reacts to note C sharp 4, and the hi-hat only reacts to note D4. Right? This way we can draw our drum pattern in the single track and then copy and paste that all we want and we don't have to fiddle around with all that stuff. We can just you know group it and hide it or something and we're done. We're ready to roll. So I'm not gonna make the patches now because they don't do anything interesting yet. So I'm gonna use a MIDI and we need to find a plugin that interests us. A MIDI filter. We have a MIDI channel filter. Well that doesn't do what we need. MIDI note channel map. MIDI notch. Oh, that's interesting. Well we can, well we could actually put this on our drums track here. Oh, we have an instrument here too. We don't want any instruments here. Right? Why doesn't it actually, why don't this make sound? Oh, because we have the output set to nothing. Okay, not sure why. Why is that? Cool. So MIDI note to channel. Okay, so we can basically filter every single note to a different channel. Well that would be one way of doing it. So we can cut this, paste it here and we can like have you know C which is kick to channel one, C sharp which is snare to channel two, D which is hi-hat to channel three. Right? And then we can right click here and use, okay we don't have this here. Okay, we can use a MIDI channel filter and then have only the, well that sucks because you have to click through all of that. It's just an eyesore. Okay. All right, so now I put this here. So now this should respond only to note C. Let's do this. And now I disable this, enable the second one. Okay, we have some success. Paste and now disable this and disable yeah, enable the third one only. Okay, the kick for some reason doesn't sound. This is enabled. It should be okay, right? Okay, oh okay because we have no master output for some reason. All right, so we have this. We have filtered the MIDI data basically by using two plugins. One is MIDI note filter, a note channel map by Robin Garrius. So this is the MIDI LV2, I think MIDI filter LV2 pack. I will link to that plugin pack in the description so you can download it. Basically we say all C notes go to channel one, all C sharp notes go to channel two, all D notes go to channel three. If we have more elements to our drum kit we simply select another subsequent MIDI channel number for each note and then we use that note for each instrument and then for the MIDI bus that listens to that instrument we need to insert a MIDI channel filter by Falk TX or any other MIDI channel filter and enable only the channel that is assigned to this instrument. So it is a bit fiddly but it could be a useful setup if you want to, you know, problem complex drum beats and have the control easy on a single track. So now I'm going to make some sounds so this actually sounds somewhat sensible and not just like a nonsensical, you know, part of Saative Waves and whatnot. So let's make a kick. Let's see if I can make a kick without listening. Hello? Well, almost. I'm gonna solo this. All right. It's not too good. Okay, that's better. Let's make a high pass and a tiny bit of noise. All right, that's a kick. This will be a snare. Let's loop it and again just a sign and we need some noise. A high pass. Pretty sweet. Cool. Now the hi-hat. That's a super simple hi-hat. Oh, this is... And there we have it. I'm sure there are different ways to work around this with different plugins but this is one way of doing it. So I hope this video was useful. Yeah, and thanks for watching. I hope you learned something. If you have any questions about this stuff or open source music production software in general like Ardor or Helm, the synthesizer, there are some videos I made about both. Actually a lot of videos I made about Ardor and some videos about Helm and other plugins. So check out those. And thanks to all the Patreons at patreon.com who helped me dedicate more time to do this stuff instead of doing other work because we all need to eat and I would love to share all my knowledge and experience and my passion with you so you can make some great music with open source software because I think that's just terrific that we have this software. Okay, thanks again. I'll see you in the next video. Bye. That was short.


Thank you very much Mr. Speaker. Just briefly I stand to support this very important initiative. When we speak of the evolution of livelihoods, certainly one can have an appreciation for what the tourism industry, what it is to send Russians. Understanding that there was a time when our livelihoods were being supported by some other practices. But the tourism industry as we know it has been an industry that has taken shape on the coastal areas and some communities modern others. Mr. Speaker, the community tourism initiative seeks to bring out a balance, equity as well as apply the principle of social justice as it relates to persons having access to proper dignified livelihood, a proper day of work. But Mr. Speaker, I wish to also highlight within the communities or the constituency of castries, south-east, two areas of significant importance that has not happened. The forestry trail to Peterfrog is a significant landmark and I'm hoping in fact myself and the Minister of Tourism have had discussion of that and he has promised in a meeting in forestry that he would make that a reality and I'm speaking about the Minister of Tourism. He did agree that he will make this trail a reality because we have persons in time past persons used to visit forestry to walk up that forestry just to be able to get one of the most important view of the entire island, Paranomic View and we need to bring this alive. I'm also happy Mr. Speaker that we will see a lot happening to the Wavin-Puasso disaster. We have now established a trail and a place where we will establish some architecture with some memorial to bring alive one of the most significant disaster that has taken place in the history of Saint Lucia where visitors would be allowed to come and visit. We are doing that along the path of the river bringing some sort of sensitivity to our natural environment whereas we are we are bringing to the minds of persons what happened that led to this major disaster where so many persons lost their lives. So these two important initiatives when I think of you know community tourism it brings that to mind and I cannot help Mr. Speaker as we speak of the evolution of our our livelihoods that the member for Mekun North is not there in his presentations earlier make reference sorry Mekun South sorry Mr. Speaker when you're not here tend to miss make a mistake but the member for Mekun South he didn't make that I'm asked the question on this side asking us how many of us have had certain kinds of how many of us have been able to work have been self-employed and while the being a former prime minister and the member for Mekun South and we're speaking about community tourism I ask myself the question how much he knows about the life of Saint Lucia because I recall that as things changes are wrong we adapt to respond to the to the environment to provide food for our children and I recall there was a time when young persons would go around marshal grounds selling icicles there's a time when persons would go out to to to to sell right bananas and I've participated in a number of things that has led me to where I am today but the the issue of community tourism actually brings a light you know this idea of persons you know independently pursuing the livelihood working in an environment that is encouraged by this government and this is powerful Mr. Speaker but Mr. Speaker will use an opportunity to address some deprivation some some deficit within our landscape and I'm happy that Castry South is will lead in that regard and that is why Mr. Speaker very soon you'll see the opening of a bus shelter the first of its kind with washrooms the first of its kind with washrooms Mr. Speaker's very often when we speak of providing for our people it's sometimes it seems it must be influenced by the tourism industry but community tourism reverses this it said if you provide for your people visitors will come and enjoy what you have and therefore this government is moving ahead and I'm happy that very soon you will see washrooms and a bus shelter at the the what's the name of your book at the boot a junction very soon you'll see this when you go up to when you get on a bus somewhere by banan and you are heading to Derry so and somebody stop off at that junction and have to wait for another bus to go all the way waiting there nowhere no washroom very soon you will see a bus shelter with washrooms you see we we many some years ago yes yes it's been led but the first one is near completed at the junction of Bella and Sarat and you will see the opening and I use the opportunity Mr. Speaker to cast the top and to put some some two barbers and a hairdresser they'll be paying a small rent to the council so they can exploit the livelihoods at the same time but but that's not all Mr. Speaker you see community tourism reminds me of something you see when this administration were campaigning in 2016 the member for me could solve described step in a particular way he said he saw women cutting grass with nowhere to urinate he said that but he came into power and he never built not one washroom to address the problem but likewise said earlier on we not people will talk we act and very soon we'll provide for people creating an environment so that community tourism is just is not about going through on the on the coast where they have the massive hotels but allowing visitors when they come through our island as they would have stayed away and imagine the various sites as the battle and this is another important initiative you know the the battle relay has has opened up solutions send Lucia to send Lucia's in a way that we have not seen before and I'm sure and I'm sure visitors paying attention to the battle relay they are seen interest in sight they're seen places and asking where is this location and they would be tempted to visit but we are not Bradley oh Microsoft well he's not taken part in it yeah well the battle relay is something that is for some special people but I'm telling you Mr. Speaker what I think is important important to me about community tourism is that it forces to move and provide for people as against going and provide for visitors when visitors when we provide for people when we develop our place and the minister of tourism I am I want him to to appreciate that castry surface is a constituency that when you leave the national when you leave the international airport you must pass through castry surface and our roads of course during the new financial year must look like a place that when people passing that we feel proud about it it's not what it's supposed to be at this time so community tourism tells us that we must prepare our place for ourselves a place that we are proud of so that when visitors come we can share it with them so Mr. Speaker I am happy for the investment but I'm more more importantly as the minister responsible for our popular vulnerable population I am happy that our people will receive and will benefit from community tourism because the investment made will impact every household and every community indirectly and directly because we would have prepared our place for people this is the real tourism it is not the kind of tourism where you have slave a sort of a slave house on the coast where persons are leaving the children behind all night and have to suffer the social breakdown and social mess up of our fabric community tourism is truly the concept that was that is featured in the bible story of the protocol of the good Samaritan sorry because he found somebody on the roadside hurt and was able to get that person and placed in an in because provision was made before this thing happened so Mr. Speaker I am happy that community tourism embraces the principle of physical development and planning it embraces the the ministry of equity and community development it embraces local government and the upkeep of our entire community because if you have the the um if you have a better a bread and breakfast or a place in in in a Wendell hill the road leading to a Wendell hill must we must consider that you cannot you cannot say that you're not having that person in in at the back of of of Shabbat cannot participate in community tourism because the road they're not good no and there's a there you cannot I'm asked somebody not to participate because you have dumping of garbage somewhere in a location no it means that our entire community our entire island must be kept in a certain condition because anywhere you can have products where our people need to be embraced so this is brilliant this is this is a this is a prime minister that is pushing this country forward and if if there was a definition of putting people's first I think it is captured in this initiative of community tourism more than anything so when the the the member for Miku South said we're just changing the name we are not just changing the name we have changed we're changing the name we're changing the game and we're changing the aspect of how we cater for people because the people of St. Lucia indeed are special to us and Mr. Speaker finally on on the matter of just just to just to end on this note I want to leave this with this house with every member here Mr. Speaker when I just got into this business of politics living SSDF I was not one who embraced tourism I used to speak about tourism like I couldn't be bothered with it I but I got to appreciate this contribution to the welfare of our people but one of the things I want to leave with us that I do not appreciate at times that is only when visitors are coming to a particular look locality we think of making provision for them our visitors must come and enjoy what provision is made for our people so do not tell me that they need a toilet or washroom because visitors are coming no they need washrooms because our people need washrooms when visitors come they'll use the washrooms and submit there for them this is the kind of development that makes community tourism alive and well this is the kind of community tourism reason why Mr. Speaker because when you when you sit here at this chair you cannot forget where you used to walk when you were younger on the street with your girlfriend going to a party and she needed to use a washroom what is it acceptable that she must go at the back of a vehicle is it acceptable that she must knock on some body's door and ask permission is it is it is it acceptable that that it's normal for us to do it in the way and then when they behave in the way that they behave we find all kinds of way to describe them but provision is not made for them to behave differently community tourism accentuate the point that we're not just providing for people but we are lifting our people and this is what we must always remember that when we sit here we must not forget the streets that we work on we must not forget the experiences that we have had the deprivation that we have seen it out there when we come in we must remember it and go back there and fix it this is what we are doing here in community tourism I thank you for this opportunity Mr. Speaker


And her project is the Artie Fox, you may have seen it, it's Creativity Boxes for Children. We'll get to that in just a moment. And the name is Fina McBride and Fina always wanted to be a schoolteacher and so always the first to offer to babysit for children and has since made a career out of it. And not just to teaching children but being a creator for children as well. And mind you, her life changed dramatically a number of years back when her little boy, two year old Donna, passed away suddenly. But now she's offering a helping hand to parents and children who might find themselves in hospital or bored anywhere really with creativity sets from the Artie Box. And Fina now joins me in the studio for a chat. Fina, thanks for coming in. Hello, thanks for having me. It's great to be here. Do you get all or any of that right? Yes, yes. All right. Yeah. Well done. Let's talk about... Well, let's go back I suppose and talk about Donna first of all. You never really get over something like that. And it was sudden, it was huge, it was sad. And to this day, how are you doing now? Oh, doing good. You know, it's always with you. But we feel very lucky that we had Donna for two years. And he was a great wee boy. You know, he had two older sisters and he was our baby. And he was always great. He was the best boy. So really, like he died suddenly and it's funny because the overwhelming feeling was, well, great sadness. But also we were grateful. We were grateful we had him for so long, for two years. So he had his own wee personality and everything. And his sisters have memories of him. So there's lots of things to be grateful for too. OK. You know. And now it's a family of three again because you got pregnant after that and had a wee girl. Yeah, I had a little girl a year later. So another thing to be grateful for too. You know, I was still able to have another child and she just brought great happiness and joy to our family again. You know, you kind of wonder, will you ever be happy again? But she did help a lot, you know. And now she's just turned three. And I'm sure she's mad, you know, and it's great. And she's starting to ask questions about him now.  The girls talk about him all the time. We're dealing with that now, asking the questions. You know, where is he? You know, what happened to him?  So really, there is no, you know, so it's just answering questions like, well, he just died. You know, it's tricky. How do you explain to a three-year-old? Absolutely, but it'll come, you know, as she gets older. And so it's a busy house. Very busy house. Loud house. Yeah, well, that's what we expected. And you always wanted to work with kids. You always wanted to teach kids. And you've done that for years. And you've always been creative. Yeah, like I did art in school. And I loved that. And I was always pottering about the house and stuff. But I kind of went away from that. I was primary school teacher. And I always loved teaching art in school, but I never would have done anything for myself. And it was just really, then when COVID hit and, you know, you're at home, we had two girls at that stage during COVID and they were kind of preschool age and young primary school age. So I found I was doing a lot of creative activities with them and also seeing a lot of things online, you know, parents crying out for what will I do with them, looking for easy ways to do art at home because a lot of parents, you know, are afraid of it. They're afraid of the mess. They're all also, you know, oh, I'm no good at art. So like my children automatically maybe won't be good at art, but a lot of kids have a great interest in it. So yeah, so then it kind of came back, you know, and I'm no artist. I always say that, you know, like I'm not an artist. I'm a teacher really. But as long as I can facilitate kids to be artists and to explore different materials and to just have fun doing it as well. So there was an artistic side within you that was screaming to get out and combine that with teaching and the Artie Fox was creating it. Yeah, so I had this idea of, you know, if you could have everything in one box, you know, that didn't need instructions or anything because kids know what to do, especially when they get a box filled with materials. They'll start exploring themselves and making things that you would never dream of. So that was kind of the idea. And then I started just before Christmas in 2020 and it just took off.  And I was just through Facebook, I was selling, you know, nationwide for that whole Christmas. I was so busy and had a six-month-old baby and that was mad. It sounds mad and then the whole world was mad at the time, you know, in the midst of a pandemic. And I suppose a lot of bored kids at home and parents, you know, wondering how you could fill up their time. So it took off. Exactly. It was amazing. And, you know, it just took off so quickly and I was so excited by it, you know, but it gets tiring as well after a while. And then as people go back to school, things change then. You know, parents may be back at work. They're not needing to entertain the kids as much at home anymore. So the business kind of changed a little bit towards workshops more as people got back together, you know. So for the last year, I still sell the craft boxes and everything, but I'm doing a lot of workshops as well. All right. Is that where your heart lies?  It's a lovely change. And I love the business side, but I still love, it's like therapy, you know, you get a group of kids in for an hour and a half or an hour on a Saturday and you just have great fun, you know, so. And it's challenging as well, you know, seeing how they're going to get on and what you can teach them and how creative they can be. Oh, absolutely. You know, I usually just have a few different activities set up and really then they just make it their own. And I have a little group that have been going since January. We meet once a month and it's nice to have the same children each month, you know. And they, because they've kind of got together in their little group now, we're actually going on Saturday to the Glebe Gallery for our last workshop together. We're going to go out to the Glebe Gallery and do it more outdoors, which will be lovely. And you've also been working with different groups, like Lina, Letcher Cannon. Yeah, so I've been really lucky that I have Irish. I'm not fluent in Irish, but it has come on a lot too because I just thought I was being offered jobs to do art workshops through Irish for families. I just thought, oh, I'm just going to go with it. And, you know, once you have the confidence to use a few words, it actually has worked out great. I now nearly get most of my work is through Irish, you know, workshops down in Ghidor, Kerry Gart, and with Lina Letcher Cannon as well. So it's a fantastic opportunity. And when you mention kids and creativity in the same sentence, there's always an appetite for it and kids are sponges and they want to learn. And it's just about facilitating that and doing it in the right way and having, being creative, sure, but also having great patience. Yes, absolutely. And I've always been patient and I also don't mind mess. My husband will tell you that. So you can clean it up afterwards.  Yeah, indeed. So if people are listening and thinking, well, I'd like to find out more about that. I mean, the artie box, that's the thing, and very much the workshops. So where can people, are you active on social media? Yeah, so I have a Facebook and Instagram page. My Instagram is the.artifox and on our website as well, which is theartifox.ie. You can get some craft boxes there that might keep the kids entertained over the summer and there's also a little pack there. It's called the plane sailing pack, which is for going on holidays. So if you're going on holidays and you're worried about the plane journey or maybe the ferry ride, it's a little pack with like a whiteboard and some playing cards and coloring pencils and a little holiday journal as well, which is really nice, just to keep the kids maybe, you know, if you just have an afternoon on holidays that it's too hot or something and you need to just get them to... And it also might keep them off electronics for a while. Exactly. So that was also a little bit part of the journey too, was to, you know, I don't mind electronics. I have three kids and, you know, sometimes it's great, but that it's not the first thing you go to, that you have something as an alternative for the first activity that will keep them entertained for a little while and also have families talking to each other, you know. Doing things together. Doing things together, playing a game together.  Okay, yeah. Stimulates the mind and gives parents, I suppose, topics and subjects to chat to their kids about it. Exactly, and kids love it. And it's a game. Exactly. It's a challenge for kids. Yeah. I remember going across the Atlantic with the kids when they were small, it was like three, four and six or something and it was a nightmare. Yeah. It's hard work. Yeah. It is hard work. So, I like to, I'm trying to find things that will just make things a little bit easier for parents but also keeping it interesting for kids. And you've also had some doors open to you to a couple of the big hospitals in Dublin. Yeah, so this was a long and really interesting project. I approached the Children's Hospital in Dublin to see could I do something, do something with them, collaborate with them in some way. So, at the minute, we have a pilot project in two of the Children's Hospitals in Tallah and in Connolly, in Blanchardstown. So, when you go into the emergency departments there, there's a stand with some activities for children to do. So, the idea is that hopefully, you know, as children are waiting for a long time in emergency departments, that there's just something creative there for them to do. Again, that maybe the screen isn't the first thing they do and it's a little story. I actually, Louise Flanagan, who wrote the Dragon Tarot books, she wrote the story for me. Great. I had another local lady who did the illustrations, Tina Tuske, and we put it all together and we've made this lovely little, like a little creative activity for children to do. So, hopefully, that's a two-month pilot project in Dublin. And I'm hoping that's almost up. So, hopefully, it'll be continued. So, Letter Kenne Hospital have also, they're hoping as well, which is really needed in their emergency department. They're hoping to have a children's dedicated area. So, I've actually just drummed and National School have just donated some money towards that. So, I'm designing an area, a waiting area for the children. So, again, we're hoping to have some activities in there for children, too. It's only when you've got kids and you're in a place like that where you've run out of ideas and you're there for maybe a long period of time and they're bored as kids, inevitably, are at that age, very quickly, they get bored. You're looking around, you're scrambling around for ideas and you can't take it for granted that there'll be a box of toys in the corner. Sometimes there are, sometimes there aren't.  It's a perfect fit. Yeah. So, hopefully, we're not saying that we're going to entertain them for 24 hours while they're waiting in the emergency department. But it'll fill a little gap, maybe between the snack, the looking at the device. And it's also hopefully going to be a quality experience that isn't something very simple, that it is a little bit of creativity and that maybe the parent and child could work together on it as well. So, again, you're encouraging communication between the parent and child as well. So, when a brand new and shiny children's hospital eventually opens, the Hardy Fox might be there. Well, that's the hope, John. Yeah, that's where I'm looking towards. You know, I just feel like, well, there's lots of hospitals in Ireland. You know, I don't need to just concentrate on the children's hospital. And there's children in every hospital. So, I'm really excited. I was delighted to be asked by Lederkenne because that's my local hospital and I've used the emergency department with my own children. And, you know, they are really trying down there as well to make things a little bit easier for families. So, yeah. So, the children's hospital is the, you know, the ultimate goal of Cromland, the new hospital, but... You're not overlooking all the other hospitals. No, absolutely not. There's, you know, there's children everywhere. Okay. Checked about online the Hardy Fox and the best look with everything. Fina, I appreciate you coming in. Thanks very much.
