Hi, Erin. Just curious what you're hoping to see tonight from your guys. Well, kind of the start of playing baseball, a little more of a competitive situation, obviously. Hope to get a couple innings probably out of Jay and maybe Clark Schmidt. The other guys that obviously start getting their work in and live situations. You'll see some times today we'll have some fielders on the field as we build guys up. So infielders might be out there for four of the innings or so. Outfielders may be three of the innings. Some guys will be running the bases. Some guys won't. It'll probably be more of a half, three-quarter speed. Guys running the bases as we build that part of it up as well. But just the start of trying to create and build those live reps as we're obviously getting pretty close to the season and we just began. How do you walk the fine line of wanting to get guys reps but also not wanting to push them too far too early? Yeah, I mean, those are conversations we have every day as a staff talking with the training staff and strengthening conditioning and trying to make really good evaluations as well as talking to the players about just exactly where they are. So as best we can, putting them in a really good position to build up properly so that they're healthy and strong as we enter the season and then obviously even building up the first couple of weeks of the season. You mentioned that Clark Schmidt would be throwing today. What stood out to you about the way he threw during spring training? Just pitch repertoire is excellent. His athleticism on the mound, which allows him to have a real clean delivery. There's an absolute presence to him. Like he believes he belongs here. So just obviously I hadn't seen him in person to that point and he came in obviously highly touted and he looked the part. So we're certainly excited about his development so far and looking forward to seeing him go out there tonight and start building. Thanks, Meredith. We could take our next question from Pete Caldera. Pete, if you can unmute. Erin, just curious what the weather situation does to your other plans before the InterSquad game today? Yeah, so I'm sure you're looking at it right now. Is it raining? You're on mute, Pete. You're on mute, Pete. Yeah, so we've got it covered right now. We think there's just going to be some pop-up things, hopefully. So we're still hopeful that we'll have some level of batting practice and on-field stuff prior to game time. But we'll just let the weather dictate that. For right now, it looks like we should be all right for game time. And we'll just work around it as best we can. Take the next question from Christy Acker. Christy, go ahead and unmute. Hi, Erin. There's a report out that you did not have testers show up yesterday, and also that one player has been tested three times and only one result. Could you just tell us a little bit about the decision making on going forward with a workout after that? We have not have testers yesterday. Say the one was really the one tester for three. No, there is a report out that one player said he's been tested three times and only has one result so far. I'm just curious about your confidence in the testing process and the decision to go forward with playing. Yeah, we're confident in the protocols we have in place. Obviously, I know there are some issues surrounding the whole FedEx and the 4th of July weekend. We also feel like nothing's perfect and nothing we do is perfect, but we do feel like the protocols we have in place are giving us the best chance to be safe. And whether tests are rolling in on a daily basis every other day, the fact of the matter is nothing's perfect and we're at risk every single day, even if we have all negative tests that roll in today. The reality is that test was from two days ago. So each day that we're here, there's risk involved in that. That's why as best we can, we're trying to mitigate that. I feel like we have a good system set up in place to do that. And hopefully over time, it proves it's metal. Thank you. Take the next question from Eric Boland. Eric, if you can unmute. Aaron, Jay Hap talked in the spring about how disappointed he was in his 2019 season, how motivated he was to have a bounce back year. In his few starts in the spring, what did you see from Hap? Yeah, he was terrific in spring. I thought he was throwing the ball really well. He worked closely, obviously living down in the Tampa area. So he came in in spring training and really ready to go and in a good spot. And frankly, we saw that the way he was able to finish the year last year, I felt like his stuff started to tick up again. I think he battled through some things last year. But I'm confident that if he's healthy and he's going out there and with his pitch repertoire, he's going to go out and have a very Jay Hap type season, albeit a shorter season. But I feel really good about what we were seeing. And hopefully now that can continue now that we've started back up. I'm getting a text from Mike Vecchero. It sounds like he needs a little override. Mike, if we're just going to call on you, even though you're, I guess, unable to ask a question, if you can unmute, you can ask a question of Aaron. Hi, Aaron. Thanks. I'm curious if you believe that the stuff you guys went through last year, the adversity, the injuries, did that put you in any kind of unique situation to be able to know that you can adapt on the fly along things you're going to have to this year? I hope on some level, the experience we've gone through and the successes that we've had in adverse situation, hopefully set the table, paved the way a little bit. Look, one of the conversations that we have as a team and that I like to have with our guys at the start of spring training at different times of the year is in talking in the context of a 162 game season, I don't care how great a year that you have, you're going to face adversity. You're going to get punched in the mouth. You're going to deal with some failures. In last year's case, obviously, it was a ton of injuries and you've got to be able to navigate that.  And look, this year is a whole different ball game, right? It's a whole different level of adversity that we could have even imagined. You couldn't have imagined this going into the year. I do feel like as much as anyone can be, we are equipped to deal with it and we'll face it. And hopefully as a club, we handle it really well. But we'll see. We know that there's a lot of unknowns in front of us. And if there's anyone that I'd want to go through that, it's with the guys in our room that I feel like are equipped for it, but we understand how challenging it's going to be. Thank you. Next question from Sweeney. Sweeney, go ahead and unmute. Hey, Aaron, as players are still debating how safe it is to participate, are you anticipating having to have conversations even going forward? Everyone's committed right now, but maybe a week from now, a month from now, as the situation changes, do you think you might have to have conversations and perhaps players drop out along the way? Again, I think that's possible. You know, for me to say anything's impossible with what we've gone through this year, I think would be a mistake. So we're just kind of really are taking this day-by-day right now. I feel like the resolve with our guys to a man is strong, but you never know what wrinkles get thrown at you along the way and what next week, let alone what tomorrow looks like. So we'll just kind of face it head on and try and be supportive of our guys the whole way through. Take the next question from Anri. Anri, if you can unmute the floor is yours. Hi, Aaron. I'm curious if Masahiro has started any light exercise, and also if the percussion protocol goes well, when would be the earliest day to restart the baseball activity? Yeah. I don't know what the earliest date I'll start to ask that question later today and probably into tomorrow. He did ride the bike today, I think 15 or 20 minutes on the bike. So that's obviously another important step as well as going through his baseline testing that he did really well on. So look, all signs continue to be encouraging with Masah. As he got his heart rated up today, there were no side effects, no symptoms. So we continue to be encouraged, but like what we're doing in this new world of COVID, similar with Masah right now, we'll take it day by day, but I would just say we're very encouraged with where he's at and how he's responding. Thank you. Yeah. Take the next question from Jake Siner. Jake, go ahead and unmute. Hey, Aaron, I got two, one's just a very quick follow up to that on Masahiro. Is he technically still in the concussion protocol then? Yeah, I believe he's technically still in it. Yeah. Yeah. My second one, a different topic, just as a baseball lifer, I was curious, one, how you feel about the new extra innings rule for this year? And two, do you think it will affect roster construction at all when we do get to opening day? I don't know how much it'll affect roster construction. I think I'm okay with the rule for this year. I certainly understand and I'm on board with it. You know, I think it does tip the scales to favor the home team if you do get to an extra innings scenario with this rule in place. And I know I have a lot of our guys looking at it and trying to break it down and analyze it and see if there's any ways that we can best exploit it from a tactical standpoint. But I'm on board with it as far as staying away from that enormously long game that every now and then happens. I think that's a good thing for this year. We'll see how it looks. I don't really have a feeling on it moving forward. I wouldn't necessarily say I supported or don't moving forward. I'll probably have a stronger opinion once we've played with that for a while. But in the short term, I'm okay with it. I do think there's a tactical, some tactical advantages to be taken advantage of there if you can be smart about it. Lindsay, go ahead and unmute. Erin, a few teams throughout the league said that they were tested on Friday and then hadn't received their test results due to various things. Did you guys receive your test results from Friday? Look, I don't want to, I think some have ruled, I don't want to get into commenting on the testing each and every day about how many negatives, did we have any positives, what came in. I really don't want to go down that road right now. All I can say is we're working closely with the league, with Major League Baseball and making sure that we are as safe as can be expected in how we're conducting ourselves. And I feel good about us being here. And I have a second kind of unrelated question, but what exactly does DJ, or do DJ and Louise Sesson need to do to get cleared to return? Do they need to test negative twice at home before coming for intake? Or do they need to test negative and then fly in? Yeah, I think it's even a little more, there's a little more to it than that. I think you've got a, there's a joint panel that has to sign off on things as well. There's obviously a couple of negative tests that have to happen, and that's got to be in conjunction with, all the Major League protocols. John Schwartz, you have the next question, you can unmute. Hey, Aaron, how are you? I was asking Matt Blake this the other day, I'm curious, how much are you paying attention right now to what other teams are doing around the league, not just like performance-based or anything, but literally how they're navigating this and trying to see, you know, in terms of interesting games and things like that, just kind of what best practices you guys can take in to kind of get yourself to July 12th. Yeah, we're having those conversations to some degree. You know, I've had a couple of conversations with other managers. I know Matt's had some conversations with other organizations. Other coaches of ours have had conversations with, you know, other coaches or players in the league, just to, you know, certainly get a feel for what other clubs are doing, maybe things that are working well for them, that are maybe good ideas that we haven't thought of that not only help from a baseball standpoint, but just from a logistical standpoint every day and operational standpoint every day. So we're trying to keep our ears and eyes open to that, and, you know, I find right now, too, that obviously, you know, it's a competitive environment, but I think in all that we're going through right now, it does seem like the baseball world, the fraternity as a whole, are being very supportive of one another in trying to, you know, help each other out whenever possible, and that's been my experience so far.


horse with a speed of light, a cloud of dust and a hearty high old silver, the lone ranger. Pitiful Indian companion Tonto, the mask rider of the planes, led the fight for law and order in the early western United States. The stories of his strength and courage, his daring and resourcefulness have come down to us through the generations, and nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past come the thundering hoofbeats of the great horse Silver. The lone ranger rides again. Come on, Silver! It's a territorial prison clang shut. For the first time in five years, two men stood outside the walls. One was Tommy Welch, young, red-headed with clear blue eyes that even prison life hadn't been able to dull. The other man was tall and slightly stooped. His face bore several scars, and his lips were set on a hard straight line. This was Digger Grant, whose name and guns were known to every sheriff in Texas. Hell, kid. This is it. We're out. Yeah, Digger. That sure seems good, doesn't it? Only thing good about it is a chance to make up for lost time. Guess that little ranch of mine over in Paiute Basin is all run to seed by now. Yeah, we'll head east back to Texas. I've got friends in Evelyn. We'll each have guns and a good horse under us inside of two days. No thanks, Digger. What do you mean? I'm not going your way. Oh, figure I'm playing the lone hand, eh? Until I get the place going again, then maybe I can buy some more stock. What are you talking about? A ranch. It's the only thing I own. You mean you're going back to Paiute Basin? Don't you want to get even? Well, I figure I'm playing the lone hand until I get my place going. I've done a lot of thinking, you know.  During the five years we were in there. The only way I or anyone else can stay even is to play the card straight.  What are you talking about? I tried dealing from the bottom of the deck and it didn't work. From here on out, I'm going straight. Suit yourself. If you want to be crazy, it ain't no skin off my teeth. I hope there's no hard feelings, Digger. Nah, I just feel sorry for you, that's all. So long, Tommy. So long, Digger. In the two years that followed on Little One Man Ranch in Paiute Basin, Tommy Welsh discovered that being honest and straightforward wasn't as easy as he thought it would be.  No one in the nearby town of Blue Mesa would let him forget he'd once been the partner of Digger Grant. This fact was brought home with stinging force one day when he met Murray McNabb on the open range. Hi, Tommy. Hello, Murray.  Yeah, but I was Sheriff Lowell's posse all through this part of the range. What for? Been some cattle rustled. Not my stock. No, none of yours. The Sheriff and Zach Lee figured them low hills back here. Place might be a good spot to hide some stolen cows. Well, what made them think that? I don't know. Zach Lee said Digger might. Digger? Why does Zach Lee bring Digger Grant into this? It's Granson that's part of the country. The Sheriff got word about it yesterday. Then last night the cows were rustled. All of you figured I was helping him hide out. Is that it? Well, how low has to hide some, please? Now listen, Murray, you'll go back and tell the Sheriff and Zach Lee that I haven't seen Digger Grant for two years. That I'll probably never see him. I hope I don't. Don't get riled up at me. That ain't my fault you spent five years with Digger Grant.  Start riding, Murray. Might be a good idea for you to drop in town and see the Sheriff. I intend to. I'll see him this afternoon. And I'll also see Mr. Zach Lee. I've got some business to talk over with him anyway. A few hours later, Tommy Welch rained up his horse in front of the Calamans Bank in the Blue Mesa. Oh, oh, I didn't know that. I want to see Zach Lee. Just a minute and I'll find out if he... Never mind. I know where his office is. Welch, how are you? Not so good, Mr. Lee. What's wrong? Sit down, Tommy. Sit down. I hear you were riding with Sheriff Lowell's posse this afternoon. Yes, it was. We were trying to get a line on some missing livestock. So Murray McNabb told me. Any particular reason why you were searching my end of the range? We were looking every place. Wherever stolen cattle could be corralled. I got the idea from Murray that you and the Sheriff had heard something about Digger Grant. That's right. We did hear that Grant is operating in this territory again. He held up a bank in West Creek a few days ago. Killed two men and stole $10,000. But you didn't think that I did. Of course not, Tommy. You're too sensitive about that subject. You'd be sensitive too if you had the same mistake thrown in your face every time you turned around. I'm sorry, Tommy. I'll speak to the Sheriff about it. Then shall we land? Oh, thanks. Oh, say, by the way, Mr. Lee, you haven't forgotten that I still hold an option to buy that piece of grazing land next to my spread. It's good land. I'd like to sell it to you. But you'll have to hurry. If I remember right, that option's up at midnight tonight. I know it. I've got a couple hundred ahead of stock around it up. I'll drive them into town this afternoon and sell them. And use that money to buy the land? Oh, I've been figuring that way. Good. I'm glad to hear it. You're showing good sense, Tommy. You can always buy cattle, but land will soon be scarce. I know it. Where is your stock now? Got them herded into a dead-end canyon right back in my place. There won't be any trouble to bring him in. Good. I'll be waiting for you. Have the deed of the land all made out. Oh, thanks, Mr. Lee. Not at all. What do you say we have a drink on that? Long horned cafes, when across the street? No, no, thanks. Just the same. I've got a lot of things to do here in town. And I want to get back to the ranch by Sunday. Work before pleasure, eh? Good. I'm glad to hear it. I always did say you weren't as bad as you were pitted. I'm glad somebody believes in me. Don't worry, son. You will make out all right. Thanks, Mr. Lee. Thanks a lot. Tommy's other errands in town consume more time than he expected. So it wasn't until after sundown that he guided his sorrel pony along a hillside trail that led to his ranch. As he skirted the deep-end canyon where his cattle were corralled, he noticed something that caused him to rain up sharply.  Oh, there! The gate's down. Come on, boy! But it didn't fall down by accident. Somebody's rustle every cow I own. Well, there's only one thing to do. Try to round him up again. I haven't got one chance and a million of doing it. Come on, boy! Tommy realized only too well what his loss meant. Now, after two years of hard work, he'd fail. He spurred his pony in the frantic hope that maybe the corral gate had fallen down by accident. He could round up the stock before midnight. But in his heart, he knew the hope was false. Then, suddenly, as he rounded the turn, high on the mountain trail... Great stranger! Oh, oh, there, steady. What the... Hey! Not for that gun you're packing. Digger! Oh, prison, pardon me. Well, I didn't expect to see you. I surprised a lot of people. Get down off that horse. I hit the dirt. What are you doing here? Waiting for you. I had you spotted for the last ten minutes. I need a horse.  No, you are. Step over there and keep your hands up. Digger, as long as you're taking my horse, maybe you won't mind telling me where you put my cattle. Cattle? Why should I waste time on cattle when there's loose cash laying around? Well, mine have all been rustled. And I thought, sure... Listen, kid, dying interested in your cow-quitters or any of the rest of your troubles and taking your horse... Oh, sure, but you... And just so you won't get any ideas when I'm riding away, I think you'd better reach down and lift that smoke pole out of your holster. Oh, you're afraid I'd shoot you? That's what you're going to get if you don't get rid of that gun pronto.  Throw it over the cliff into the river. All right, Digger.  Oh, I threw it as far as I could. Well, it's out of your reach anyhow. I'll walk to the other side of this bronc. I'm going to mount him. Sure. You're sneaking with the batteries. That gun now will plug you. I'll take the chance. Back, Digger. Step back, or I'll shot you. By some miracle, none of the bullets from Digger Grant's blazing gun had found their mark. And now Tommy Welch, tense and shaken by his brush with death, peered over the cliff and scanned the riverbank below. Although darkness had already set in, he could easily make out the crumpled body of Digger Grant lying by the water's edge. There was no doubt that the outlaw was dead. And, undoubtedly, he was still carrying the stolen money from the West Creek bank robbery. But suppose Digger hadn't ridden to this territory alone. Suppose there were other members of his gang in the vicinity. Holding his gun in readiness, Tommy moved cautiously down the trail. With a small clearing close by the riverbank, the Lone Ranger, Tonto, and Dan had been startled by the echoing sound of gunfire. The shots came from upstream somewhere. Ah, that'd be close. Sounded that way. We could walk along the edge of the creek here. I know, Dan. We'll wait a few minutes. Maybe that sheriff's possibly received this afternoon. I don't think so, Tonto. Well, you'd have heard of horses if there had been any number of men riding this way. Golly, I'm anxious to know why anyone's... I guess... Wait. Perfect targets for this campfire behind us. I don't move. That's good advice. As if any of you reached for a gun, you're asking for the same thing Digger got. 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. Continue our story. Silhouetted as they were by firelight, while an unknown gunman threatened them from the darkness, the Lone Ranger realized that Dan, Tonto, and he were in a dangerous position. And although his hands were raised, he played for time. What do you want? Just keep them that way till I let you over. Masked. Then you are part of Digger's gang. Who's Digger? You mean where is he? That's as good a question as the other. Digger's dead. I just killed him. Is that so? Say, I don't like the way you're reggin' toward that red skin. If you want to sneak at him... You can be tripped as easily as you can. You'd never try to hold a gun on three people at the same time. You got his gun, Tonto? No, no, no. Me got it. But I... How did you...? There are some minions who can move pretty fast. Tonto happens to be one of them. Gee, Tonto, I couldn't even... You've got my gun. Go ahead and shoot. Why? Why? Well, you're outlaws, aren't you? Part of Digger's gang, and I just told you that I... Oh, wait a minute. To start with, we're not outlaws. I don't know who Digger is. Well, we were in prison together. And that was two years ago. Since then, I've been trying to go straight. But today, somebody rustled my cattle, and then Digger showed up... I think we'll get along a lot better if you'll start from the beginning and tell me everything. Tell you? Or would you rather that I just turn you over to the sheriff of Blue Masons? No, no. Nobody around here trusts me anyway. Now, wait. Tell me about it. Well, it's... like I said. About seven years ago, when I was a kid, I got mixed up with Digger Grant. I was a lookout on a hold-up. We were caught and sent to territorial prison for five years. Then, two years ago, we were released. I came back here to go straight. Growing out in spite of himself with a strange masked man who seemed genuinely interested, Tommy Welch told the story of his life. He related all the events in detail, and when he'd finished, the Lone Ranger asked several pointed questions. Do you think Digger Grant is telling the truth when he said he hadn't stolen your cattle? I don't know. Digger was bad all through. He'd do anything. You're sure he's dead? Well, he has to be. It's a 60-foot drop from the top of that cliff to the riverbank. Now, I don't know what to do. Well, what do you mean? Well, tend to one, the sheriff's posse is still looking for Digger. If I tell him where he is, I'll think I had something to do with a hold-up and murder in West Creek. I won't believe I shot him in self-defense or that he fell. I understand how you feel, Tommy, but it's the only thing you can do. Call the horses, Dan. Sure. Here, Silver. Scott? But I just told him... I had the blue mason tell the sheriff the truth. No, he won't believe it. You don't understand how suspicious everybody is about me. Is that it, Silver? Easy. Yes, I do. Huh? And I'm going to try to help you. How? I don't know. You go to the sheriff and I promise I'll do everything possible. Come on, Silver. Come on, Silver. Come on, come on. Tommy Welch followed the Lone Ranger's advice and reported the location of Digger Grant's dead body to the sheriff. Sounds kind of fishy to me, Tommy. Or did you say all this happened? We're up on the river trail about a quarter of a mile from my place. We'll find out soon enough whether that story is true. Well, how about my cattle? They're gone. So is my chance to buy that grazing land. Not my hard luck. Come on, boys. We'll check on this story about Digger Grant. That's right. That's right. And Tommy? Yes. You stay right next to me. This tale isn't true. I want you to be around. In the meantime, Tonto and Dan Reed hid themselves in the underbrush near the river, not far from the spot where the dead body of Digger Grant was sprawled on the ground. Think anybody will show up here, Tonto? Well, me not no. Lone Ranger say, watch. We watch. Yeah, that's what I can't figure out. How does he know anyone will show up here? Dan, me no Lone Ranger long time. And he's smart. Yeah, sure. But how can he figure out what people do? Him figure out how people think and him know what they do. God, it's too tough for me to... Right. Somebody come. Well, there is somebody over there bending over that dead man. And look, he's taking off Digger Grant's clothes. Oh, what good, right? Wait. We watch. Then follow him, like Lone Ranger say. Man steal clothes to use him. Yeah, but what... Hey, look. He's pushing the dead man into the river. Lone Ranger say, him do that. Who is he? He may not know. Him go now. Come, we follow him. There's only a few minutes later the Sheriff's Crossy arrived at the exact spot where Dan and Tonto had been hiding. Is the place Tommy? This is it. The body of Digger Grant is right over... Why? It isn't here. It's gone. This whole thing is a stall, Sheriff. Welsh is lying. No, you've got to believe me. I shot Digger and he fell over this cliff. And where is he now? Well, I... Somebody must have found the body and thrown it in the river or something. You're stalling Welsh and you know it. You and your old partner Digger are probably still working together. It's a good scheme, but it won't get by. Sheriff, do you think that? I don't know, Tommy. Looks kind of funny.  You all know how I've worked to get my ranch going here. I'd be loco to throw it away trying to protect Digger Grant. You used to be partners. You were in prison together. Yeah. Maybe you and Grant figure on joining up again after you give us a slip. I say you better be sold it away. That's what I say. No, please, Sheriff. Let's search both sides of the creek. I know we'll find Digger's body some place along here. How about the money from the bank robbery? Well, he must have it on him. Please, Sheriff. I guess I can't overlook any bets. Plenty of moonlight, so we can see well enough. Murray, you take half the posse and work downstream on this side of the creek. The rest of us will take the other side. Whatever you say, Sheriff. In the meantime, Tommy, you stay right alongside of me. All right, boys, spread out. We've spent three hours, Tommy, and haven't found a thing. Got any answer for that? I can't understand it, Sheriff. Well, I can. As soon as we string up this lying vomit, the better. Somebody coming. Hey, it's Mr. Lee, the banker. Something must have blown sky-high to ever prod him out of his swivel chair. Yeah, who's that with him? Bill Farr. He works the delivery station. Oh! Oh! All that. What's the trouble, Mr. Lee? If I have news, important news, can I see you alone for a minute? Sure thing.  Hit it there. Tommy Welch. What the... You're the kid who was with that masked man. Not so loud. He joined this posse about 10 minutes ago, and so far nobody's discovered me. What difference does it make? I'm in trouble worse than ever now. I can't figure out how Digger... Somebody saw your gunfight with Grant. Who is it? The same man who stole your cattle. He found Digger's body and stole the clothes. Oh, the clothes? Why would he... Who is it? I wouldn't do any good to tell you. Because you can't prove it yet. I'll be lynched if I don't. The man who promised to help you told me to give you this. What is it? A button. A white, pearl button that's been torn from a man's shirt. Pearl button? How can it? Listen, do you know where the little line shack is and the land you've been figuring out by him? Oh, sure. I know where that shack is, but... Well, get there as quick as you can. You'll find some clothes, Digger's clothes. Then you'll see what the pearl button means and how you can use it to prove you're innocent. You're the only one who can do it. I can't ride to that line shack. This posse would be on my heels in two minutes. You could run for it. Goodbye. Good luck. All right, Victor. Wait! Who's that kid you were talking to? Well, I... I don't know. He's with your posse, I guess. You've played out your string, Tommy. Might as well stop stalling. But, Sheriff, I know that Digger's...  Digger Grant's dead. How come he held up the cattleman's bank not over an hour ago? What? No, it isn't posse. Anker Zach Lee just brought me the news. He was there. And so was I. And a dozen other people. We all saw Digger Grant. He was masked, but he was wearing that same brown shirt and pants he always wears. Is that true, Mr. Lee? It happened, Tommy. I'm sorry because I've always believed in you. I've never held you a prison record against you. Let's bring him up, sir. Hey, wish there was some way I could help, Tommy. Don't worry about it, Mr. Lee. I guess the only thing for me to do now is... Help myself! Get up there! Get away! After him, boys! Tommy knew he couldn't keep ahead of the posse for very long. They would surely run him down in less than a mile. In desperation, he spurred his horse toward the abandoned lion shack that the strange boy had told him about. Arriving there, he could hear the posse in hot pursuit, even as he dismodeled and hurried into the shack. Yes, these are Digger's clothes, all right. But how'd they get here? And why did that kid tell me... I hate, here's a note in the pocket of the shirt. Oh, now I think I understand why he gave me that white pearl button. That is welcome, Tommy. We'll rid that shack and you with it. I don't want to fight, Sheriff. Come in and get me. No tricks now. You're covered. I know. All I want to do is talk to you for a minute. Don't collab with that coyote, Sheriff. Let's string him up. No, please, Sheriff. Just come in here for a minute. Bring Mr. Lee and Murray McNabb with you. All right. Come on, Murray. Lee, rest of your stay back here. Keep your guns handy. Well, what's your story now? You better give up, Tommy. You can't win by stalling. We're wasting time, Sheriff. You see these clothes, Sheriff? They're wet. They've been in the river and they belong to Digger. Lies won't help you now, sir. Now, wait a minute. Let me tell you something that I can prove. Talk fast. Digger is really dead. It wasn't he who robbed the cattleman's bank this evening. Now, don't start all this. Now, let me finish. The man who robbed the bank was wearing these clothes. He got them from Digger's dead body. He's the same man who wrestled my cattle. He wanted to keep me from buying this land because he uses it in his stolen cattle business. His scheme has been almost perfect. He knew he could cast suspicion on me and my past reputation would convict me, especially if Murray McNabb yelled for a lynching. Who are you tired of? I said his scheme was almost perfect. Some friends of mine followed him here to the shack when he changed clothes. They told me what to look for. What? Look, this is Digger's shirt. All the buttons on it are brown. But right here, caught in the collar, is a white pearl button.  The man who did that is in this room, Sheriff. All you have to do is look for... That ain't me. I always wear leather jacket. Mr. Lee, there's a white pearl button missing from your shirt. You see what I mean, Sheriff? Maybe I do. No, you won't! Shoot the first one. That's what you think? Good work, Murray. Can you imagine that? The hombre who's been behind all the crooked work was Zach Lee, our banker. The town's leading citizen. He even held up his own bank. Well, Tommy, I don't know what to say. He sure clears you. Thanks, Sheriff. Tommy, you're sure smart. Yeah, lucky, too. You know, a thing like that button falling out of the shirt wouldn't happen once in a million years. It didn't happen. I put it there. Well, how'd you get it in the first place? A friend of mine sent it to me. Friend? I don't understand. Neither do I, exactly. But I do know he's the best friend I ever had.

Mr. Yim, the floor is yours. Well, thank you, Marcus, I mean, for the privilege to speak first. I mean, well, I'm supposed to be the last speaker in my alphabetical order. Well, it is always nice and lovely to visit Marrakesh. But I think it's a pity and regret that I have to talk about the most serious and grave problem, security problem in the world now. Well, this issue is not new, as you all know, has been for 25 years for the attention of the security people of most, you know, concerned countries. Well, I was heavily involved when this issue came out, maybe in early 1990s. Well, I see some participants, I mean, will work together to resolve the issue. Well, these days, I mean, tension has been built very heavy in my country, not because we expect any possible provocation by North Korea again, but because of the arrival of President Trump. Well, Korean government, I mean, mounted maximum security vigilance, I mean, you know, in protection of the US president.  So I think if I try to go through all the phases of this issue, it will take, you know, maybe hours. So I will skip the early part of this issue, but I will just start from the recent development of this North Korean nuclear quagmire. Well, global outrage at North Korea's nuclear program has grown since September of this year when Pyongyang claimed a successful test of a hydrogen bomb and made further threats to detonate another hydrogen bomb in the West Pacific Ocean. Unprecedented exchanges of personal attacks between the US president and North Korean leader marked another escalation in the war of wars. Mr. Trump calling him rocket man told the UN that he would totally destroy the North if threatened while Kim Jong-un called Trump a mentally deranged US daughter. Well, I had to find the word daughter in the dictionary. I didn't know what it really meant. I think that we now have to squarely ask the question, why did the international efforts fail to prevent North Korea from developing a weapons of mass destruction program? What went wrong for the last almost 20 years? My answer is follows. Number one, North Korea has invariably been cheating and it ran on the agreements it signed where it promised to freeze and stop its nuclear program in return for a security guarantee and economic benefits. Thus, North Korea is squarely to blame and should be held responsible. North Korea experiencing devastation of the country by the massive bombing of the US during the Korean War and being isolated at the end of the Cold War, North Korea set a national goal to develop a nuclear weapons program which could guarantee its regime's survival under any circumstances. That was also the supreme and standing order from Kim Il-sung, North Korea's founder, and later this order was enshrined in their constitution. Then why did North Korea come to the negotiation table and close those past deals to denuclearize? North Korea made three agreements, but three agreements were not implemented at all. The answer is simple. North Korea needed both the weaponization of nuclear and missile capabilities and certain benefits from outside, the security guarantee, economic assistance, and diplomatic normalization with the Western countries. North Korea believed that it could achieve both objectives at the same time, continuing the WMD program while negotiating for the necessary benefits. Now North Korea officially pursues nuclear and economic development together and they declared it as in Korean Byung-jin Jung-chek war two-track policy. Secondly, the US, Japan, and South Korea, including myself, were deceived by the North Korean unprecedented scam. Later former Clinton officials said that they knew North Korea was cheating on the HEU program and planned to use that intelligence as leverage to keep the agreed framework in place and the plutonium under lock and key. Cheating is bad, but being cheated sometimes worse. Having learned of the past history, the Obama administration barely bothered to restart disarmament talks with the North. Instead, it adopted a policy called strategic patience, doing nothing. But under that policy, they lost time allowing North Korea to improve its mastery of nuclear and missile technology. On numerous occasions, including during his presidential campaign, Trump vowed that he was committed to resolving the North Korean nuclear issue. He's on an Asian trip now. He will arrive in Seoul I think in the morning of Tuesday, so we are looking at his lips. Despite Trump's tough talk, his choice of options may not be wide open due to restrictions that are inherent in each of them among the potential options that have been raised. I'd like to discuss a few of them and their ability to achieve the goal of CVID of the North Korean program. First, military option. Donald Trump has said that any US military option would be devastating for North Korea. But he added that military action isn't Washington's preferred option to deal with North Korea's ballistic and nuclear weapons program. Theoretically, if North Korea fired an ICBM targeting US territory or South Korea or Japan, the US would make a preemptive strike on North Korean military sites, and that could lead to North Korea's massive retaliatory attack on South Korea or even Japan. This scenario of going to war with North Korea would risk the lives of millions of people across the region. Regardless of how much has been said about possible military action in reality, this war scenario is the last option to take. President Moon of my country and China has openly opposed any war scenarios on the Korean Peninsula. South Korea's nuclear option. As North Korea is closer than ever to full-blown nuclear capability and prospects for resolving this problem seem deemed prolonged, public opinion in South Korea recently has moved toward favoring a scenario in which South Korea also should go nuclear. The conservative political community in Korea strongly insists that the best way to deal with North Korea nuclear provocation and threats is to arm South Korea with its own nuclear weapons or redeploy US tactical nuclear weapons which were pulled out in the early 1990s. Should South Korea take this option, it would also face unbearable difficulties and strong opposition from the international community including the US, China, Japan and others. Third, sanctions plus show of strength. That means extended deterrence by the US. Since North Korea conducted its first nuclear test in 2006, North Korea has been under economic and financial sanctions introduced by the UN Security Council and the international community. The Trump administration recently adopted an executive order to deny North Korea's access to the international banking system. These strengthened sanctions imposed on North Korea should be effective and are quite different from the past ones which failed to affect North Korea's already shattered economy. In order to thwart North Korea's continuing provocation, the US South Korea recently put on maximum military vigilance and conducted joint military drills with various US strategic resources being deployed on and around the Korean Peninsula including three aircraft carrier strike groups. In fact, since its last test of a hydrogen bomb and firing of an ILBM in September, North Korea has maintained the silence. My conclusion is that a nuclear armed North Korea is not acceptable. Number two, unless South Korea and the US is attacked, military options are out of consideration. Continuation of strengthened sanctions on North Korea plus US extended deterrence and show of strength would be the best option to deter North Korean provocation which I hope will lead to a CVID resolution of this quagmire. Finally, should North Korea continue on this path, then the international community should be united to bring down the Kim Jong-un regime.


My wife had to work today but I was going to have her come out here and talk about she's complaining I'm around too much now. I've been doing this for probably about four years now, both the corn grazing and the bale grazing. I was looking for a way to feed the cows in the winter at a lower cost and to keep them out of my fields, spread their manure. Corn grazing in this area is pretty cost effective if you just graze it out in the field instead of harvesting it and feeding it back to them in the yard and then hauling their manure back out to the field. I mean I just figured it'd be easier to do it out here. It actually worked pretty well for me. I just come out here a few days before I'm planning on grazing it and I turn my GPS monitor on my loader tractor and I just make the strips of where I'm going to put my electric wire so then I know precisely how big each strip is and I can get a pretty good estimate of how much corn I'm giving them. And then the same goes for my bale grazing. I was just looking for a way to keep the cows out in the land and not keep them confined and to simplify my chores in the winter time to save costs with time and fuel. Another thing you can use it for is target certain areas that may have some bare ground, may have some fertility issues. It is a good way to add fertility to the soil. With the bale grazing you can just you can set the bales out in advance. You can do it in the fall in the summer even and then just subdivide it with electric wire as well. Or like I'm doing out here I'm just bringing the bales out as needed. There's multiple ways you can do it.


I'm here with the king. The king of quads are my new favorite power lifter, JPG. His light, his light. Double it up. No way. My head is up. Actually, yeah, I think we can double it up. His legs. We're about to get those thick adductors. That's what we're about to do. Nice deep squat. See these tubas? Is that adductor magnet's right in there? I want to grab just like right here that meat. That's girthy. Yeah, that is girthy. That's not bad, huh? Yeah. What are we doing, right? The I.B.'s? I just go for whatever stands to get you the deepest. Yeah. Whoa. You're typically donkey. Hands and knees, hands and knees. Typically, I believe that's what you say. I'm not an expert. Same, same, same. Hey, you guys. That's on the end of the wall straight. I don't even know how to work these things. You got it, you got it. Oh, no, no, no. You can't even that. I'm going to have a hernia. You better feel a little wider. My hemorrhoids are going to explode on the plate, foot plate. I brought cream, I brought cream. I needed it. Oh, buddy, that's here and there. Don't crease the jays. Oh, these are beaters. How many reps? I'm not going to do it. Whatever he does, I'm going to do four left. I'll do 15. I'll do seven. I'll do seven, coach. I've got two good ones. Anything like two good ones. The weakest one here. You know? Yeah, I might go to, like, one six-plane after this. After this? Yeah. For GCP, I'll do it. Feel it out? That is six-plane. Something's like Ali. Is there a specific form you look for? Yeah, so I'm going for deep inflection, because deeper you go, the adductor is gained leverage. So this is basically a nice, like, adductor, quad bias leg press. I mean, as deep as you can go without your pelvis rotating up. Yeah. That's my problem, so I would do like that. Yeah, so you're going to play with this. Oh, great. Let's watch you for that, though. Yeah, I go a little bit wider out. Get that nice stretch on the adductor. Yeah, don't force it, though, you know? I'll do it, though. I mean, as deep as you can go without your pelvis coming up off that pad. Yeah. Your prayers are good. I mean, it's up to you today if you're rich or not trying. It's basically a quad bias leg day. So I mean, I don't know what kind of switch quad Mike wants to do, but if he wants to do a little glute, we can do that. But for now, we're hitting some nice quad. Yeah, quad in that adductor, so it's inner-sized. If you want your legs to look big, you've got to hit those adductors, you know? See all the guys in here? Yeah, those guys? Yeah.  Show them off. Come on. Show them off. Come on, come on. How do you flex these things, Coach? How do you flex them? JP, JP, how do you? He's doing it. He's flexing. Why did it not look like muscle? Why is it like there's marshmallows above my knees? Why don't they look like his? Why don't my legs look like his? How many are we doing? I'm going thick, man. Mikey, he's asking, what kind of switch quad do you want? Quad. What do you want? Like a quad. He wants you to do a quad. A blue one. I got to do quad, switch quad. We can do that. I'm down. I'm not doing it. We're not going to pull. We're going to split Hammy's quads, too. I'm basically like a wellness pro. They just do legs every day. Come on, JP. Put it down. Come on. Come on, come on. I hope. Come on. How's the eight? You're stronger than me. Hey! Make a little light. Call Mikey. Hammy. Go, go, go.  Come on. Nice. Yep. Funny. Funny life. Get it done. Bro, I'm kind. Come on. That was light. Now we're going to go up. We're going to go up. Are we going to go up the light? There we are. Two more plates. That's bad. Run it up. Run it up. Two more. Two more. Does it need to be more control? That was good. That was good. That was nice and deep. I got to change shirts soon. I feel a little naked. I can see my little salami lips. The mortadella lips. Nice. Easy. Come on. Run it up. Nice. Don't worry. We'll go up next set. No, you said? Oh, yeah, yeah. Run it up. Run it up.  How are you feeling? Oh, that hurt, bro.  I'm not happy. I'm not happy. Let's say you're going up two plates. Yeah, yeah, let's go. Ten plates.  Come on. There you go. Come on. Heavy, and then you press it out like nothing. What are you doing, dude? I'm warming up. I'm warming up, actually, though. That was a warm-up. Two more? Two more plates. Two more plates. Two more plates, let's go. He's giving up. Yeah? Why, bro? Last set. If you deadlift with me the next three days, I got heavy deadlifts Tuesdays, and then heavy deadlifts Saturdays, and another leg day Thursdays. Why? You did that willingly? Your legs look good, though. You're not too bad, huh? Yeah, pretty good. A little chunky again, though. No? I like them a little thick. Yeah. I as well. That'll be nice. That'll be nice. Get some of the base, Steve. The dean's from up there, too. Come on, J.P. Let's go, J.P. There you go. There you go. Should I, J? White. White weight? White weight? I hope eight, maybe seven. Go, big man. Goddamn! Let's go. Come on, Mike. Deep, deep, deep. Get deep. There you go. Nice. Come on. Run it. Pretty good. Come on. You crazy. You crazy out here. How do you rock it? How do you rock it? That's heavy. That's kind of a rocket. That's heavy, bro. That's good. That's good. I felt like it was 1,200 pounds. It is, right?  He's going to wrap this out, though. I'm going to do one. Log in out of here, bro. How many reps do you do? I hope eight. I don't know. You did this already? Yeah. My legs are already shaking. Come on, dads. Bro. That's a freak. Come on, dads. Easy. Damn. Oh, my God.  You're not tired. That was eight. No, it wasn't. Call everybody back. What's next? What's next, JP? What's what? What's what? Yeah. Come on here. Lower air? Yeah. It's not your chest. Going all that. Nice, my face. Feels nice, though. Feels good. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I actually feel so much better after that. Okay. That's the worst, boy. Can you just go foot off, right? Let me see. I mean, I don't see any of the girls. Yeah. I'm okay with it. Like, I'm tall enough to use it. But I was like the dude that started, like, the whole thing, like, to talk about using, not using a bench. Me so funny. I mean, I think it doesn't matter if you're tall enough for it. But, like, a lot of, like, the people, you know, like, five, six, five, five and under, it's going to be a lot harder for them. But I mean, even me, like, even if you're taller, I still prefer using something else. Yeah. If you had no other option, yeah.  Oh, that sounds good. Yeah, I like that. Yeah. When in Rome, which JP will do JP thinks? gangster? You want to be gangster? There's this gym up in fact. Do you want to be gangster? I'll show you how to do this. Uh-oh. Call me JPG Jr. Yeah, that's all right. Oh, wait, wait, wait. Are you talking about putting it on the dip bar? No, you put it on the barbell. That's gangster, right? That might be. He thought he was Mr. I've never tried it. Mr. Suboptimal. Yeah, I've never done it. Really? Yeah.  You ever seen this? We got a barbell. Surgeon? No. Get a bar?  Hey, was your bicep?  Because I did the front squat. And I was coming up and I dropped it and then I caught it like this. I feel my bicep when I'm front squatting. Because it's like this, you know? Yeah. Yeah, it hurts like hell. Did this work? Hey. Hey. Come on, Doug. What kind of weight? Jackness? JV. What kind of weight? What are you doing? What's the one hand? I know you're strong though. One hand? Why? That's a squatter for an hour. One hand? She's got some obliques involved.  That's so weird.  Come on, I know you're stronger than that. Let's go. Yeah, two hand. Okay, 55. We'll start at 80. Yeah? I got straps. Yeah?  We got a little wrist. Yeah. How's that look, JV? I don't know. I didn't really get a good look. He's wearing all oversized everything. I can't even see his whole body. Sleepers, baby. I'd actually probably go a little closer. I still feel more good.  Bro, that's heavy as hell. Is it heavy? Yeah, it's heavy as hell. It's going to feel light. It's going to feel light. The only reason I'm using straps. I'm weak. I'm weak. It's too high. We got to go a little lower. A little lower? He didn't deadlift two days ago. He ain't got a deadlift tomorrow. He ain't got a squat. I got 10 pounds of sweat in my t-shirt. That counts for something. It counts for something. It's a game.  So I'm like 20 pounds heavier than you already.  I'm weak boy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No, this is his doppelganger. It's a warm-up. Niko Flores. What's next? Niko Flores. I just got done with my warm-up. Yeah, yeah, exactly. Yeah, I'm feeling like a good pump now, and it's time to hit some heavy squats. Yup. Yeah.  Last day. Last day. Last day. Last day. Last day. Last day.  Last day.  Last day? Yeah. What did you say about the last day? Worst day. Yeah.  You doing like this? Yeah. God damn, though. Any closer even. A little more upright. I'm gonna squish my nuts. I might later, too. Closer. I can't. You want quad, right? Hold up. Your knee was to the ground. Yeah, you see how close your knee was to the ground? Yeah. Stand up a little. I can't. I know. You don't ever. I know. You don't stretch. That middle quad muscle. It's not even a stretch. Well, it is a stretch, but it's a loaded stretch. Even better. Yeah, you're doing more upright. You'll feel that in that back leg. Ow, doesn't it? Think front foot forward versus back foot down. It's okay. It's all right. It's all right. You can go heavier. Cool. Oh, J.P.? Oh, nice. My name is J.P.G., and you're watching Disney Channel. This is J.P.G., and you're watching the Disney Channel.


Hey, welcome to this CUBE conversation. I'm Lisa Martin today talking to a CUBE alumni who's been on many times talking about data, all things data. Please welcome Satyan Sangani, the co-founder and CEO of Elation. Satyan, it's great to have you back on the CUBE. Hi Lisa, it's great to see you too. It's been a while. It has been a while. And of course in the last year, we've been living in this virtual world.  Hopefully someday soon, we'll get to actually sit down together again. There's some exciting news that's coming out of Elation. Talk to us about what's going on. What are you announcing? So we're announcing that we are releasing our Elation cloud service, which actually comes out today and is available to all of our customers. And as a consequence, are going to be the fastest, easiest deploy and easiest to use data catalog on the marketplace and using this release to really double down on that core differentiation. So the value prop for Elation has always been about speed to deployment, time to value. Those are really been what you've talked about is the fundamental strengths of the platform. How does the cloud service double down on that value prop? Well, if you think about data, our basic premise and the reason that we exist is that people could use data with so many of their different decisions. People could use data to inform their thinking. People can use data in order to figure out what decision is the best decision at any given point in time, but often they don't. Often gut instinct or whatever's most fast or easy to access is the basis off of which people decide to do what they do. And so if you want to get people to use data more often, you've got to make sure that the data is available, that the data is correct and that the data is easy to find and leverage. And so everything that we can do at Elation to make data more accessible to allow people to be more curious is what we get excited about because unlike paying your payables or unlike figuring out whether or not you want to be able to have greater or lesser inventory, those are all things that a business absolutely has to do, but people don't have to use data. And so to get people to use data, the best thing you can do is to make it easy and to make it fast. And speaking of fast, that's one of the things I think the last year has taught us is that real-time access to data is no longer a nice to have. It's really a competitive differentiator. Talk to me about how you enable customers to get access to the right data fast enough to be able to do what so many companies say and that is actually make data-driven decisions. Yeah, no, that's absolutely right. So it really is an entire continuum. The first and most obvious thing that we do is we start with the user. So if you're a user of data, you might have to hunch through a myriad of reports, thousands of tables in a database, hundreds of thousands of files in a data lake, and you might not know where to find your answer and you might have the best of intentions, but if you don't have the time to go through all of those sources, the first thing you might do is go ask your buddy down the hall. Now, if your buddy down the hall or your colleague over Zoom can't give you the time of day or can't answer your question quickly enough, then you're not gonna be able to use that data. So the first thing and the most obvious thing that we do is we have the industry's best search experience and the industry's best browse experience. And if you think about that search experience, that's really fueled by our understanding of all of the data patterns in your data environment. We basically look at every search, we look at every log within a company's data environment to understand what it is that people are actually doing with the data. And that knowledge, just like Google has PageRank to help it inform which are the best results for a given webpage, we do the exact same thing with data. And so great search is the basis of what we do. Now, above and beyond that, there's a couple of other things that we do, but they all get to the point of getting to that end search experience and making that perfect so that people can then curate the data and leverage the data as easily as possible. Sounds like that's really kind of personalized based on the business in terms of the search, looking at what's going on. Talk to me a little bit more about that and how does that context help fuel innovation? Yeah, so to build that context, you can't just do historically and traditionally what's been done in the data management space. Lots of companies come to the data management world and they say, well, what we're going to do is we're going to hire, we've got this great software, but sending this software up is a journey. It takes two to three to four years to set it up and we're going to get an army of consultants and everybody's going to go and assert quality of data assets and measure what the data assets do and figure out how the data assets are used. And once we do all that work, then in four years we're going to get you to a response. The real key is not to have that context to be built sort of through an army of consultants and an army of labor that frankly, nine times out of 10 never gets to the end of the road, but to actually generate that context day one by understanding what's going on inside of those systems and learning that by just observing what's happening inside of the company. And we can do that. Excellent, and as we've seen the acceleration in the last year of digital transformation, how much of that accelerant was an accelerator revelation putting this service forward and what are customers saying so far? Yeah, it's been incredible. I mean, what we've seen in our existing accounts is that our expansions have grown up, gone up by over 100% year over year with the crisis in place. Obviously you would hypothesize that these catalogs, these sort of accessibility and search tools and data in general would be leveraged more when all of us are virtual and all of us can't talk to each other. But it's been amazing to see that we've found that that's actually what's happening. People are actually using data more. People are actually searching for data more. And that experience and bringing that to our customers has been a huge focus of what we've been trying to do. So we've seen the pandemic. In many cases it's obviously been bad for many people but for us it's been a huge accelerant of customers using our product. Talk to me about Alation with AWS. What does that enable your customers to achieve that they maybe couldn't necessarily do on-prem? Yeah, so customers obviously don't really care anymore or as much as they used to about managing the software internally. They just wanna be able to get whatever they need to get done and move forward with their business. And so by leveraging our partnership with AWS, one, we've got elastic compute capability. I think that's obviously something that they bring to the table better than perhaps any other in the market. But much more fundamentally, the ability to stand up Alation and get it going now means that all you have to do is go to the AWS marketplace or call up an Alation rep and you can within a matter of minutes get an Alation instance that's up and running and fit for purpose for what you need. And that capability is really quite powerful because now that we have that elasticity and the speed of deployment, customers can realize the value so much more quickly than they otherwise might have. And that speed is absolutely critical as we saw a lot last year. That was the difference between the winners and those that were not going to make it. Talk to me a little bit about creating a data culture. We talk about that a lot. It's one thing to talk about. It's a whole other thing to put it in place, especially for legacy institutions that have been around for a while. How do you help facilitate the actual birth of a data culture? Yeah, I mean, I think we view ourselves as a technology, as a catalyst to our best customers and our best customer champions. And when we talk to chief data officers and when we talk to data leaders within various organizations that we service, organizations like Pfizer, organizations like Salesforce, organizations like Cisco, what they often tell me is, look, we've got to build products faster. We've got to move at the speed and the scale of all of the startups that are nipping at our heels. And how do we do that? Well, we've got to empower our people. And the way that we empower our people is by giving them context. And we need to give them the data to make the right decisions so that they can build those products and move faster than they ever might have. Now, those are amazing intentions, but those same leaders also come and say, I've just been mired in risk and I've been mired in compliance and I've been mired in doing all of these data genitorial projects. And it's really hard for me to get on the offense with data. It's really hard for me to get proactive with data. And so the biggest thing that we do is we just help companies be more proactive much more easily because what they're able to do is they're able to leave a lot of that genitorial work, lead a lot of that discovery work, lead a lot of that curation work to the software. And so what they get to focus on is, how is it that I can then drive change and drive behavioral change within my organizations so that people have the right data at their disposal? And that's really the magic of the technology. So I was reading the Alation State of Data Culture report that was just published a few weeks ago. This is this quarterly assessment that Alation does looking at the progress that enterprises have made in creating this data culture. And the number that really struck out, it was 87% of respondents say data quality issues are a barrier to successful implementation of AI in their organizations. How can Alation help them solve that problem? Yeah, I think the first is, whenever you've got a problem, the first thing you've got to do is acknowledge that you've got a problem. And a lot of the time people, leaders will often jump to AI and say, well, hey, everybody's talking about AI. The board level conversation is AI. Mackenzie's talking about AI. Let's go do some AI. And that sounds great in theory. And of course, we all wanna do that more. But the reality is that many of these projects are stymied by the basic plumbing. You don't necessarily know where the data's coming from. You don't know if people have entered it properly in the source systems or in the systems that are online. Those data often get corrupted in the transformation processes or the processes themselves don't run appropriately. And so you don't have transparency. You don't have any awareness of what people are doing, what people are using, how the data is actually being manipulated from step to step, what that data lineage is. And so that's really where we certainly help many of our customers by giving them transparency and an understanding of their data landscape. Ironically, what we find is that data leaders are super excited to get data to the business, but they often don't themselves have the data to understand how to manage the data itself. Wow, that's a conundrum. Let's talk about customers because I was looking on the website and there's some pretty big metrics based business outcomes that Elation is helping customers drive. I wanted to kind of pick through some examples from your perspective. First one is 364% ROI. Second one is 70% less time for analysts to complete projects. Workforce productivity stat is huge. Talk to me about how Elation is helping customers achieve business outcomes like that. Yeah, so if you think about a typical analytical project, you would think that most of the time is spent inside of the analytical tool, inside of your Excel, inside of your Tableau where you're thinking about the data and you're analyzing it, you're thinking deep thoughts and you're trying to hypothesize, you're trying to understand. But the reality is going back to the data quality issue that most of the time is spent with figuring out which are the right data sets because at one of our customers, for example, there were 4,000 different types of customer transaction data sets that spoke to the exact same data. Which data set do I actually use out of a particular database? And then once I figured out which ones to use, how do I construct the appropriate query and assumptions in order to be able to get the data into a format that makes sense to me? Those are the kinds of things that most analysts and data scientists struggle with. And what we do is we help them by not having them reinvent the wheel. We allow them to figure out what the right data set is fast, how to manipulate it fast, so that they can focus most of their time on doing that end analytical work. And that's where all the ROI, or a lot of the ROI is coming from because they don't now have to reinvent the wheel, they can do the work and they can move on with a much faster business decision, which means that that business moves significantly faster. And so what we find is that for these very highly priced resources, some data scientists who make $200, $300, $400,000, fully loaded for our company, those people can do their job 74% faster, which means they can get not only the answer faster, but they can get many more tasks done for over a given period of time. Well, that just opens up a potential suite of benefits that the organization will achieve, not just getting the analyst productivity cranked up in a big way, but also allowing the organization to be more agile, which many organizations are striving to be, to be able to identify new products, new services, what's happening, especially in a changing chaotic environment like we've been living in the last year. Yeah, absolutely. And they also can learn, not only can they help themselves figure out what new products to launch, but they can also help themselves figure out where their risks happen to be and where they need to comply because it could be the case that analysts are using data sets that they ought not to be using or the business is using the data incorrectly. And so you can find both the patterns, but also the anti-patterns, which means that you're not only moving faster, but you're moving forward with less risk. And so we've seen so many failures with data governance regimes where people have tried to assert the quality of data and figure out the key data elements and develop a business glossary. And there's that great quote, like I want a data governance, but all I got is a data glossary. That all happens because they just don't have enough time in the day to do the value added work. They only have enough time in the day to start doing the data cleaning and all of the janitorial work that we as a company really strive to allow them to completely eliminate. So wrapping things up here, Elation Cloud Service, tell me about when it's available, how can customers get it? So it's available today, which is super exciting. Customers can get it either through the AWS Marketplace or by calling your Elation representative. You can do that by coming to our website and that's super easy to do and getting a demo and moving forward. But we try to make it as easy as possible and we really want to get out of the way of allowing people to have a seamless frictionless experience and are super excited to have this cloud service that allows them to do that even faster than they were able to do before. And we all know how important that speed is. Well Satya, congratulations on the announcement of Elation Cloud Service. We appreciate you coming on here and sharing with us the news and really what's in it for the customers. Thank you Lisa, it's been phenomenal to catch up and great seeing you. Likewise, for Satya and Sangani, I'm Lisa Martin, you're watching this CUBE Conversation.


In this study, the authors developed a novel approach to produce silver-decorated mesoparasilica nanoparticles, the MSNs. These particles are made from a biocompatible flavonoid extract, which acts as a reducing agent and non-sufactant template. The resulting MSNs exhibit excellent antimicrobial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as fungal species. Additionally, they show minimal cytotoxic effects when tested with human cells. This suggests that the silver-decorated MSNs may be useful in a variety of biomedical applications.

Hey guys, welcome to SSUnitech, so see in this side and this is continuation of Power BI tutorial. So today we are going to see about the merge queries inside the Power BI. So in the last video we have seen how we can create the table manually inside the Power BI desktop in query editor and how we can insert the data on test table. So here this is very important concept inside the Power BI like what is the merge queries and how we can use it. So go to on Power BI desktop and we will see in the practical how we can use the merge queries in the real time. So this is the Power BI desktop and this is the country sort name tables as we have created in our last video. So here as we can see it is having two columns first is country name second is sort name. Go to on dim address table and this table is also having the country names. So what is our requirement? We just want to get the country sort name from the country sort names table in the address table. So for that we have to use the merge. So basically merge something like the joining between two or more than two tables. Here go to on home ribbon and here go to on the last merge queries and append queries. So we have discussed about the append queries. This is something appending the queries like first row and second rows one by one. So inside the merge query we can see it is having two options first is merge query second is merge query as new. So if we use merge query then it will not going to create any new query the join will be happen with the existing table like in address table currently we are selecting on next merge query as new. If we select this merge query as new option then it will create a new query and merge will be going to happen on that new query. It will not going to affect our existing query but here we just want to use the merge query directly. So click on merge query after that this is our left table and here just click on this and we can see we just want to join with the country sort name. So what would be the joining condition? So it should be country name and here country name after that we need to wait here we can see all is going to match that looks good join kind. So what is this join kind? If we click on this then we can see we are having a lot of options like left outer then right outer then full outer then inner left empty and right empty. So what is this join kind? So first of all let's understand about this join kind. So go to on excel here I have created the scenario. So let's assume this is our first table and this is our second table. In the first table it is having two columns id and name second table is also having id and salary. In the left table as we can see records is one two and four and in right table that is query two it is having one three and four. So what is the left outer right outer and full outer? If we talk about left outer then just concentrate on this. So it is going to combined left table with the right table and all the records from the left table will be a label over here just like the left outer join in our database tools. So here very similar like one two and four should be here. So one two four we can see names abc because it's coming from left table so abc and the matching rows from the right table. So one hundred is matching two hundred is here for four is 300 matching for three hundred is here but two is not going to match with the query two. So it should be na that is not applicable. If we talk about right outer join so it should be having all the records from the right table and matching records from the left table. So as we can see it should have one three and four so one three and four after that hundred two hundred and three hundred have salaries hundred two hundred and three hundred the matching records from the left table. So three is not available in the left table. So here we can see three name is a name because it's not available in the left table for one is a and four is c is available. So we are getting like that. Next is full outer join. So this is very similar it will be going to get the matching and non matching records from both the tables. So first as we can see one and two then three and four. So here one is going to match with the left and right table. So name and salary is coming after that we can see two is b two is b but here two shouldn't going to match. So we just need to delete this. I made this mistake. So it should be blank. So something like this four we can see c and four is 300. So it should be 300 and in case of three it should be 200. So something like this. So matching records from the right and left tables which is id one then non matching records like two is not going to match with the right table three is not going to match with the left table and four is going to match with the both the tables. So this is something like full outer join after that here we can see in the anti in the left table it will be going to get those records which is not going to match with the right table. This is anti left then anti right it will pick those records from the right table which is not going to match with the left table after that inner join it will be going to return only matching values from both the tables. So this is something like we have joins in the database tools now move to power bay desktop. So in power bay desktop as we have selected here we either we can use left outer or we can also use inner join because all the values should be match. So we need to wait few seconds. So here as we can see all the values are going to match like 13401 13401. So all values are matching. So we can click on okay now we need to wait few seconds. So here as we can see country short names is added here we can select the table we can directly click on this arrow after that we can select those columns which we want. So here we have two options first we can expand second we can do the aggregate. So here we just want to expand and want short name now click on okay it will take few seconds now we can see this is the short name and it's coming from country short name tables. So this is very important while we gonna use one or more than one tables. So this is very important and very simple to use as I explained. So hopefully you have understand how we can use the merge queries and all about the join like outer join, inner join and anti-left anti-right join. So thank you so much for watching this video.

Gunnery Sergeant John Bastalon, also known as one of the most badass marines in history. If you were to look in the dictionary, you'd probably see a picture of his face. But I digress. He was born in Buffalo, New York on November 4th, 1916, and was the sixth of ten children. At 18, Bastalon listed in the Army and did a short tour in the Philippines. He was given the nickname Manila John, named after the capital of the Philippines. Bastalon was discharged from the Army in 1937. In 1940, Bastalon enlisted in the Marine Corps because he felt it was his best shot to get back to the Philippines. Well, he got sent to Guantanamo Bay instead. Semper Gumby, right? He did get his chance to go back to the Pacific when he fought in the Guadalcanal Campaign with the 7th Marine Regiment. During the Second Battle of Henderson Field, Bastalon directed his men's fire, machine gun mostly by the feel of his hands because of low lighting. And according to his Medal of Honor citation, his efforts contributed and large measure to the virtual annihilation of a Japanese regiment. That's about 3,000 enemy soldiers. After receiving his Medal of Honor, Bastalon was sent back home to go on a war bond tour. By backing the attack and buying his war bond.  After being denied a few times, John Bastalon finally got his chance when he was assigned to the 5th Marine Division for the invasion of Iwo Jima. While there, he received a Navy Cross for single-handedly destroying an entire hostile strong point and its defending garrisons with grenades and demolition. Bastalon became the only enlisted Marine during World War II to receive both the Medal of Honor and the Navy Cross. He gallantly gave his life for his country and was killed in action by enemy mortar fire, February 19, 1945. Ura.


Hi, hi out there. Is anyone feeling sad? This is our last general biology lecture. We're going to talk about vertebrates today. You've been here, you've seen this cladogram. We've been like dealing with this cladogram for like eight lectures now, or 32 or something like that. And in the last lecture, we dove into the animal scene. In fact, we fleshed out our cladogram, our animal aspect of our cladogram here. So today, we're going to focus in just on the chordates, and we're going to flesh out, just like we fleshed out all the previous ones, we're going to flesh out the chordates, which include vertebrates, which dog pound, you are a vertebrate. We could do cheers. We could do, we are vertebrates, cheers. Or we are chordates, because then we get to include some really cool critters in the chordate clan. So let's start by knowing that we're going to build another cladogram. And in fact, we could probably start our cladogram. I think I'll wait and start it in the next one. But we'll look at the characteristics that define chordates, and then slowly flesh out all the other critters that are included in chordate land. So let's go talk about them, because chordates are cool.


Hello and welcome to the session. In this session, we will discuss the following question, and the question says, the marked price of an air conditioner is $640, a buyer gives a return discount of 16%, an off-season discount of 8%, and a cash discount of 2% on it. How much did he have to pay for it? Before we start solving the question, let us first recall the formula for selling price when the marked price and discount are given to us. Selling price is equal to marked price minus d% of marked price where discount is d%. So, this is the key idea for this question, and using this key idea, we will solve the question. Let's start the solution now. The marked price of the air conditioner is $640, so, marked price is equal to $640. Also, we are given that a buyer gets a return discount of 16%, so, return discount is equal to 15% of the marked price, that is $640. This is equal to $1500 into $640, which is equal to $96. So, we have the marked price and return discount. Therefore, price after 15% discount is equal to marked price, that is $630 minus return discount, that is $96. This is equal to $534. Also, it is given in the question that an off-season discount of 8% is given. So, off-season discount is equal to 8% of price after 15% discount, that is $534. This is equal to $8100 into $544, which is equal to $33.52. So, price after 8% discount is equal to price after 15% discount, that is $534 minus off-season discount, which is $33.52. This is equal to $500.48. Next, we are given that there is a cash discount of 2%. So, cash discount is equal to 2% of price after 8% discount, that is $500.48. This is equal to $2100 into $500.48. This is approximately equal to $10. So, the price after 2% discount is equal to price after 8% discount, that is $500.48 minus cash discount, which is $10. This is equal to $490.48. So, this is the price after 3 successive discounts. Hence, the buyer has to pay $490.48. This is the final answer. With this, we end our session. Hope you enjoyed the session.


Hi and welcome to the session. I'm Asha and I'm going to help you with the following question that says, find the coefficient of x raised to the power 5 in the product of 1 plus 2x raised to the power 6 into 1 minus x raised to the power 7 using binomial theorem. Let us begin with the solution and we have to expand 1 plus 2x raised to the power 6 into 1 minus x raised to the power 7. Now first let us open 1 plus 2x raised to the power 6 with the help of binomial theorem. We have 6C0, 1 raised to the power 6 into 2x raised to the power 0 plus 6C1, 1 raised to the power 5 into 2x raised to the power 1 plus 6C2, 1 raised to the power 4 into 2X raised to the power 2 plus 6C3 one raised to the power 3 into 2X raised to the power 3 plus 6C4 one raised to the power 2 into 2X raised to the power 4 plus 6C5 one 1 raised to the power 1 into 2x raised to the power 5 plus 6c6 1 raised to the power 0 into 2x raised to the power 6 into, now we will expand 1 minus x raised to the power 7 with the help of binomial theorem, so this is 1 raised to the power 7 plus 7c1 into 1 raised to the power 6 into minus x raised to the power 1 plus 7c2 1 raised to the power 5 into minus x raised to the power 2 plus 7c3 1 raised to the power 4 into minus x raised to the power 3 plus 7 C4 or 1 raised to the power 3up radial minus x raised to the power 4, plus 7 C5, 1 raised to the power 2up radial minus x raised to the power 5, plus 7 C6 180 1 raised to the power of 1 into minus x raised to the power of 6 plus 7c7 1 raised to the power of 0 into minus x raised to the power of 7. So we expanded these two terms with the help of binomial theorem, which can further be written as 6c0 is 1 and 1 into 1 is 1 2x raised to the power of 0 is 1 plus 6c1 is 6 into 2x 6c2 is 15 and 2x whole square is 4x square plus 6c3 is 20 and 2x whole cube is 8x cube 6c4 is 15 and 2x raised to the power 4 is 16x raised to the power 4 plus 6c5 is 6 and 2x raised to the power 5 is 32 x raised to the power 5 plus 6c6 is 1 and 1 into 1 is 1 and 2x raised to the power 6 is 64x raised to the power 6 into this is 1 raised to the power 7 since we have 7c0 1 raised to the power 7 into minus x raised to the power 0 whose value is 1 plus 7c1 is 7 into minus x plus 21 into x square since 7c2 is 21 similarly on expanding we have 35 into minus x cube plus 35 into x raised to the power 4 plus 21 into x raised to the power 5 with minus sign plus 7 x raised to the power 6 minus x raised to the power 7 which in further simplifying can be written as 1 plus 12x plus 60x square plus 160x cube plus 240x raised to the power 4 plus 192x raised to the power 5 plus 64x raised to the power 6 into 1 minus 7x plus 21x square minus 35x cube plus 35x raised to the power 4 minus 21x raised to the power 5 plus 7x raised to the power 6 minus x raised to the power 7 we have to find the coefficient of x raised to the power 5 which will be equal to now we have 2 brackets 1 we get on expanding 1 plus 2x raised to the power 6 and other we get when we expand it 1 minus x raised to the power 7 so on multiplying 1 with minus 21x raised to the power 5 we get coefficient of x raised to the power 5 that is minus 21 now multiplying 12x with 35x raised to the power 4 we will again get a term with literal x raised to the power 5 so we have plus 12 into 35 and rest when we will multiply 12x with the other terms we will get the terms which will have different literal from x raised to the power 5 similarly on multiplying 60x square with minus 35x cube we will get a term whose literal will be x raised to the power 5 so we have plus 60 into minus 35 again on multiplying 160x cube with 21x square we will get a term with x raised to the power 5 so we have next term as 160 into 21 now on multiplying 240x raised to the power 4 with minus 7x we get plus 240 into minus 7 plus now lastly on multiplying 192x raised to the power 5 with 1 we again get a term with x raised to the power 5 so lastly we have 192 into 1 which is further equal to minus 21 plus 420 minus 2100 plus 3360 minus 1680 plus 192 which is further equal to on adding all the positive integers we have 3972 minus on adding these three negative integers we have minus 3801 which is further equal to 171 so our answer is coefficient of x raised to the power 5 is equal to 171 so this completes the session take care and have a good day
