And here you come and find him for $250 thank God you recognized him. Thank God you grabbed him and you've given him an amazing life. So thank you for doing that. It is funny how many people I was thinking about getting this thoroughbred because it goes all the way back to secretariat. I'm like, his great, great grandfather, secretary and I'm like, you realize there's like 10 million of those, right? So you have a direct descendant of secretariat. That's a testament to still have him at 33 years old. That's a testament to the care and love that you give him. So we want to thank you. And speaking of Karen love, oh my gosh, you guys are an Ecuador family. We are the other thoroughbred anniversary year who I claimed and retired 18 years ago. So we've had him we've had them all that time. He's got terrible skin problems. I mean, he's just he's allergic to every fly bites. You can imagine that. So he gets his bizarre, it will manifest into the fluffing of skin off from under his coat and he looks like he has spiderwebs all over him. So we finally got a handle on that. But what he's the way I found Ecuador was is he has mud fever or scratches or dermatitis with whatever you want to call it. Really bad on his hind passions. So I tried everything. And finally, every day, he gets the full Ecuador spa treatment I call it. We do the name shampoo on his pastors and clean them up and then we put the skin lotion and then we follow it up with the zinc oxide paste. And the zinc oxide pace. I mean, here in Washington in southern Canada. It just, you know, 9 months out of the year, it's wet. Yeah. And there's and it's just constant thing. So that zinc oxide pace both dries it out and it protects it like it's been used for diaper rash and things like that over time. As. So it does the same thing. And it really keeps it dry now. These are never going to go away. They're chronic. But this keeps it from really taking over..

"Hello thank you. For joining the american revolution this week episode to eighteen onondaga creek in april of seventeen seventy nine. The americans launched an offensive into the onondaga villages of western new york before we get into the details of the attack. I thought it might be a good time to take a step back and go over the role of the iroquois confederacy in the war. The confederacy data back hundreds of years. Possibly even before columbus reached america. Initially the confederation consisted of five tribes the mohawk the oneida the ndagga the yoga and the seneca in the early seventeen hundreds a sixth tribe the tusk aurora also joined the confederacy as explained in earlier episodes. The iroquois were a relatively small group of native tribes. Living in. What is today upstate. New york and southern canada based on language they are thought to have migrated to this area from the south settling amongst the much larger groups of konkan speaking native groups within the region. The confederacy particularly found itself threatened. After the french in quebec allied with many of the algonquin tribes that were the traditional enemies of the kway. The power and influence of the iroquois really took off in the late sixteen hundreds after the iroquois began trading relationship with the dutch in the new netherlands after the british took control and change the name to new york. The iroquois continued that beneficial relationship with british trade gave the iroquois access to guns and other western technology that allow them to extend their reach as far south as the carolinas and as far west as the mississippi river the iroquois claimed authority over all the tribes living in those areas including the shawnee delaware and mingo tribes it asserted authority to negotiate on their behalf and enriched itself by selling large amounts of land belonging to these other tribes to the european colonists. Although the iroquois generally worked traded with the british the confederacy made an effort to remain neutral in disputes between britain and france during the french and indian war when the iroquois lands became the main point of contention between the.

"Flim gorge. It's new hampshire state park. They have tours. they have walking trails. It's much more walking. Friendly than some of the other trails that have boulders boardwalks and railings and all that fun stuff you can either go and visit a small bit of it for free or you can actually go in and get admission and visit more of it now where you say when we start there. We're probably starting somewhere further south. You've already taken us. Almost two thirds of the way up to state to flynn gorge just people on the map to me. That's where all the beauty starts is once you get up in the white mountains in southern new hampshire. It ain't no slacker either. Yeah we'll get into some of the nice stuff in southern new hampshire by having lived around. This area ended massachusetts. I definitely prefer the air up. North is just fresher clean. And you have all these beautiful lakes to kayak and you have mountain views everywhere so once. You're there it's beautiful to me and to lots of people here in new hampshire slim gorgeous someplace where we like to hike. Is my impression hike or visit waterfalls and some of those waterfalls are only about a five minute walk from the car. So you don't have to be like an avid hiker to thief loom gorge in that area. There's also cannon mountain which if it's winter which nobody really comes up here and winter unless you really loved the snow and the cold there's skiing but during foliage time which is the time. Most people love to come to visit new hampshire. You can take sky right up to the summit of cannon so no hiking involved but you still get those over four thousand foot views and lots of great foliage will and you say during foliage simon. you're right obviously. That's a lot of people are going to go or or should go that that certainly the more popular time. But when is that time where you are in new hampshire. 'cause you're kind of in southern canada. They're going to come sooner. Yeah so it varies across the state. There's always foliage maps every year Always recommend people look those up because it does change depending on how cold the season is how much rain. There is an all of that but usually second week in october is pretty prime season. So there are tons of hikes new hampshire. Obviously there's the forty eight four thousand foot mountains. They start at four thousand and they go all the way up to over six thousand feet all different levels of how hard they are. But then there's a lot of mountains that are just real quick hike. Some of them only about half an hour. And you feel like you're up there a lot higher than you are great views. We have a lot of different articles all about our favorite hikes in new england that just endless. I've been hiking for years. And i haven't even done probably half of them if you were to pick two or three from new hampshire. That are your favorite hikes. What would we be including. Actually it's liberty and flame m- so it's right near flu gorge and it's a loop hike. It is one of the most popular. I don't usually recommend it on a weekend because you will have a crowd in the parking lot and even up on the ridge but it is one of the most spectacular ridges ever. You kind of feel like you're in lord of the rings or something like that. It seems like there's drop-offs real sharp at both sides. You're just walking on the ridge between the two mountains and it's a spectacular hike one of my favorite. That isn't a four thousand footer. Is morgan percival.

Two's in concert program and loved. When did you first become aware of lure nearer. When he lie and the thirteenth confession came out which i think was probably early. Sixty nine are remember. Having a week off. Work from being ill and i got a bought alliance thirteen confession which came in. Its english sleep. Which wasn't nearly as nice as the americans leave. I discovered course neither did it have the perfumed insular postering so insistence so i was able to appreciate it of undistracted by these flippers. And i spent a week listening to that album and kind of internalizing it metabolising. It and i thought it was one of the most extraordinary things i'd ever heard an. I still do so. That was how i encountered him. Sounds about right. And you. I wrote about her. In what seventy seventy one of the festival show data saturday the sixth of february nine hundred seventy one evening with moore nerve for one pound fifty. I didn't pay thirty cells and of course it was an evening not just with laura niro but with her boyfriend at the time. Who is jackson browne who attacked and who is pretty well unknown to the general audience for sure but who came on did a perfectly nice did brought me on the water and things like that and then she did her set at the piano looking very dramatic and from southern canada. Bamako known earth are and it was. It was pretty fabulous and it was quite a you know it was it was full. People were waiting for it. A certain kind of person you the sort of person who went down to buy their imports at one. Stop on south molton street and there were quite a lot those then and it was. I- i it for the times and it was mom dumped it and then she came back a little while later for the in concert. Bbc waving another especially in concert tickets to the sitter online growth. Ever not a lot of who things like the detail. I love from that. Is that if you're in camera range from the bbc you got paid ten bulbs a member of the audience. Can i go back and play along those consummate site. Johnny mitchell and james taylor the front row. Don't timbo mesa. The sad thing about that concert is that it was mom it was. I think it was half an hour. Maybe forty years wasn't certainly no longer than that. But it was her solo again in front of the small audience in the tv theater really great very intimate and it was absolutely full on one hundred percent near and it was wiped doesn't doesn't exist and i went to quite a lot of trouble to try and see if anything survived from it. I got in touch with stanley dorfman. Who is the producer. Who's in retirement in los angeles and he. Frankly cabello remember. It certainly didn't have a copy of it and there appears to be no called anyway which is pretty amazing. Because there's usually a copy of everything somewhere Maybe she didn't want an for staff humid. I mean there's a portion this is back in the late seventies and it was a policy even then to a particular just to get rid of it just wipe over the tapes and reuse them uncertain engineers made it that business to nick stuff you know or or get a copy take but they do they. I remember my dad's there was little place melodies around the corner from us cover garden and if they listen to a goon show they would necessitate of it so when they came to find the things that baby why some people had estimates of these of these games.

But we're here with two men who don't live and quite divisive. I'm saying tomorrow morning. If you really immerse yourself in work then a voice that can sound quite melodramatic and and social shrill and pauper ethic. He'll still sounds. But i love it now and i guess it to me. It makes sense in the context of what she's doing. So i mean the music is always a subjective experience. But how how would you on sell. Laura to lure skeptic. Subjecting accepted writing room. I know how would you. I think you have to understand that you. She came out of the york culture which included the brill building. Songs the great uptown. So stuff that was being written by govern king man while and barry and greenwich then she signed she. Did she loved them. And do you know she. She grew up seeing as well as studying music forming.

They're really old so they've been alive for about nine months and eventually they die and then it takes time for their offspring develop but by may this new generation is ready to continue the journey north and the part of the united states that we refer to as the corn belt so iowa wisconsin minnesota. I'm an even farther north into michigan and southern canada there. The butterflies have enough milkweed nectar and son to stay put and cycle through one even two more generations but then the last generation at the end of the summer it's the shorter day lengths and the cooler temperatures that signal to those butterflies that generation that it's time to get ready to migrate and so instead of producing eggs and mating and hanging out in milkweed patches those butterflies instead tank up on nectar. They build up their fat reserves and they head south towards the over wintering sites in mexico and so they have to be in a special physiological state to be able to successfully make that migration So they keep the the species going. But it's this. I mean i'm sorry but describing. A butterfly as fat is like. I've seen fat caterpillars but i've never seen a fat butterfly. They are butter balls in the fall and winter. And it's important that they build up those fat reserves because they not only need energy to fuel the migration but they have to live off of their fat reserves for five months at the over wintering sites and also use them to fuel that journey partway back north again. Here's sonya all tyzzer on the ted stage now. This migration of monarchs is one of the earth's last great migrations but around the world. A lot of these great migrations have disappeared or disappearing due to things that we as people are doing to them and their habitats their lost change the entire ecology of ecosystems. And they're impossible to replace like these other migrations mark. Migration is declining to in fact the last three consecutive years have been the lowest numbers of monarchs ever recorded in mexico so low in fact that scientists estimate migratory. Monarchs have declined. I ninety percent so if monarchs where people this would be losing. Every person living in the united states for those in ohio and florida now. What are the causes of this monarch decline. Well unfortunately there's a lot of different challenges facing monarchs ranging from climate change and drought to deforestation and illegal logging in mexico. Even car strikes along roads during the fall migration one of the more ominous threats has been the loss of milkweed plants in agricultural habitats due to shifting agricultural practices. So it might surprise you to hear that what we eat affects food. That's available to the monarchs. So you actually link the monarchs wellbeing to how we humans grow our food. Can you just explain what that link is. What the connection is between the two well so monarch milkweed milkweed isn't the only resource that they need. They also need nectar plants but milkweed is the key resource that monarchs need to reproduce and it's an agricultural weed and so you would find it along roadsides. Even country roads are gravel roads. It would be growing in and around cornfields around other row crops and orchards and so one thing that has become popular since the late nineteen nineties. Our crops that are genetically modified to resist common herbicides. Like roundup and the herbicides can be sprayed on crop fields of soybean or corn and the crops do just fine but milk weeds and cultural weeds. That would be providing. Nectar for monarchs would die. You suggest that one way to help stem the decline is to buy non. Gmo food but gmo's have been around for nearly thirty years now. Is that even possible anymore. That's an interesting question. I mean certainly. We can use our purchasing power as consumers to buy sustainably sourced crops or agricultural so buy local. buy organic. It's probably too late to turn the clock on gmo crops and it a controversial topic so the technology itself isn't harmful or evil. It's just the way that these crops had been deployed and the scale at which they've been deployed. You means that we're growing food now. In a way that doesn't leave room for other bio-diversity and sees egger ecosystems have become really Almost ecological desert's will so. Is there anything else we can do. Like i guess. Plant monarch friendly gardens plant. More milkweed definitely planting milkweed but especially native moke. Weeds is something that people can do to help them. And you're being aware that it's not just milkweed that monarch sneed its nectar plants and other resources to and if you plant habitats and gardens for monarchs and other pollinators you'll be helping dozens of other species as well and so it's realizing that monarchs are part of these complicated food webs that involve birds and spiders and and send other plant species even parasites that attack them and certainly milkweed is a critical part of that and there are other parts to one of my dreams is to be able to take my kids to the over wintering sites in central mexico to let them be able to see what it's like to stand in a forest full of millions of butterflies and so to see that climbing to see those migrations unraveling does make me sad at the same time. They are resilient. And they can acclimate or adapt to a wide range of conditions. So they do exist in places in the world where they don't undergo long distance migrations so there are native resident monarch populations throughout central and south america and the caribbean islands and monarchs more recently colonized the pacific islands. They've also recently crossed the atlantic. They've crossed the atlantic literally. Yes they have. And so one interesting fact about monarch says that in england people used to call them storm fritter larry's in historic times because they would occasionally blow over with big storm. People thought that they maybe naturally just blew across the atlantic and storms on. It also seems likely that monarchs hitch a ride with people to different places around the world on trade ships for example but in a lot of these places monarchs breed year round and don't undergo long distance migrations and so how these tiny insects can show such a wide range of behavioral responses to different environments is fascinating to me and so i think a lot of us are trying to figure out what's going to be the new normal. Yeah i mean the new normal sounds like it's not great for these butterflies. There's a lot we humans. Keep doing to cause for them. So does that mean that. In addition to studying them we also need to start enacting laws to protect them. One of the great challenges with protecting migratory species is that they don't see or respond to a respect geopolitical boundaries. And so we need to think about ways of engaging in conservation that cross these boundaries. Which you're really just artificial constructs of people and nations and you really reflect on the fact that for most of life on earth movement is not only a part of their life. It's essential to the persistence of these species. That sonya altuzar. She's an ecologist at the university of georgia.

I mean northern colorado. For the most part i think longmont this morning as one but for the most part. We're in new territory when it comes to temperatures. How long is this deep freeze. Going to last state fifty three now thirteen ten. Kfi a thirteen ten kfi k. A. dot com northern colorado's voice mornings with gail via the collision specialists as duty as joined this morning by channel to pinpoint weather meteorologists. Stop spirit scientists and man extraordinaire matt. Maki- morning no legal. So i'm doing in. So what's the deal. We are in the polar vortex. It's absolutely frigid out. There is but if you're in the dakotas or southern canada we be twenty thirty thirty five forty below zero. So it bombing. We're on the bombing side of this cold air. You said that. Because i said longmont a balmy one degree. The sporting well. They're warm spot right there. Banana belt there in longmont. You are absolutely correct sir. So what does the weekend ahead look like for us. We'll get even colder the scent of another surge of energy. That will come through. And it's going to push more cold air force so Today's and today and tomorrow fairly similar Obviously cold will have single digits lower teen highs and overnight. We'll be below zero but sunday's going to be the coldest we may. We may not see some locations even get out of the below. Zero categories highs will be around zero and again. That's sunday then now. The good side of sunday is that it will actually provide the higher chance some snowfall that may accumulate. And it's so cold. I mean we're not gonna expect a lot of moisture but even attempt to quarter of an inch of snow or the water that turns into snow in this cold. That's a lot of snow and that's pretty valuable moisture to see a lot of snow in the mountains. More so than where we are right. Oh for sure The northern mountains especially the northern park range Sections of the northern the central laremy range the northern one for us but Some of those mountain ranges they will pick up a lot of snowfall Like a location that would be preferred steamboat. Springs is just. They've had a great winter week. Lots of snow and more they come continue so the mountains do get some heavier snow and and keep in mind the mountains thirty to forty degrees So it's warm up there and it's snowy so anybody who doesn't like the cold it's a short drive to escape it and you can catch some snow. You know it's interesting when you look at the impact over the past few days of being kind of stuck in that temperature inversion and your colleague mr tomer. Talking about the fact that it's dirty air it does feel kind dirty it. Does i think we use that to get there so much in the air right now both natural and then pollution and things we just if easier to just call it dirty rather than rambled down the list of everything and it's and it's also kind of dirty in my opinion that it doesn't want to leave it you know it cold air moves in it. Loves low elevations get super heavy. It doesn't want to exert any energy of tried to climb out And we all kinds of leaving this valley bowl here in the rivers and once the cold air arrives. It is super stubborn to get out of here. So it's a dirty air mass. We'll call it there you go. Yeah and it's just hanging around like a dirty wet blanket anyway. All the more reason to cuddle up on valentine's day and that megan's channel to pinpoint weather meteorologists to atmospheric scientists and his new title weatherman extraordinaire.

"The snow. It's just a little more difficulty since you're just lacking the moisture and such very cold Air says he just questions all over the group world here. Um, I love it. I love it. I like to travel and I have a little travel business, too. And I was looking at a trip that I posted on my Facebook page. Not that we're going to do it, but I just It was kind of surprising to me about going visiting the Arctic in wintertime. And someone posted on my Facebook page that the Arctic in winter is actually about what it is here. Maybe a little warmer. Is that true? Well, it can happen that way. It all depends right now. Some of those blobs of very cold Arctic air can make their way down too easily into southern Canada. And of course, we can get some of them tow approach and and come right here across areas of Chicago. So at any given time, there are places within the Arctic or even up in the Arctic circle that can be a bit warmer. Then what you might see around our neck of the woods here all the way up through Minnesota or southern Canada. So it's still kind of depends on where those big blobs of that really cold air sitting at the time. Did your professor say if you were describing a massive errors, a blob right now. You love the We could just call them air masses, But you know any way we could discuss it. Never heard that. That scary turned the polar vortex. We lived in, man. We lived right. So what? We talked about this before? It's not a storm system, but it's always present And when you get branches of it to come down and bring us that Arctic air, this is the result. Okay, So you're talking about a blob of arctic air so If the blob comes to the south and encapsulate Chicago cover Chicago Does that mean on the back end of the blob over the Arctic? It's warmed up, or Hey, you got it. You got to kind of picture in your mind How a lava lamp works. You know, how's one blob goes up another blob comes down and takes its place. That's exactly it. A lot of times you'll get A little bit of a trade off. They're all right. I've got lava lamps at home. I'll go check that out tonight. It's a great little demo that I've used to describe it all the time. But you you're dead on somewhere. We're getting some air. That's a little bit warmer to replace this cold air coming down and you've always got to have something. Okay? Maybe 20 on Thursday. What is next week look like when does it? Look? If we're lucky? I mean, do you see? Where do you see the warm up coming? It's gonna be over while I'm afraid above freezing may take a good week and a half or longer, So we're gonna be stuck in this sub freezing Massa colder and we may get a reinforcing shot of the negatives. Once we get a little closer to late this weekend, Valentine's Day in the Monday that's That's certainly a possibility. But tonight we're gonna be approaching zero again. But it's gonna be a little while. Unfortunately, before we can start getting some of those temperatures to help melt away the snow. I know we're having a little bit of trouble figuring out where to put it all. But what a weird winter. That's your art. What a weird winter, right? I mean, it didn't really arrive until three weeks ago. It seems like and now it's sitting. It's hard. Yeah, almost almost kind of trolling us a little bit. It seemed like we were going to get it pretty easy there for a while and then exactly club a lot of us here, But we're not the only ones A lot of folks there are feeling the wrath of old man Winter and will continue. We could see bigger snowstorms trying to fire up in a little further south. So you know the Southern Plains through places like Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky all the way up to the Eastern Seaboard. Uh, since they're going on the edge of that Arctic air, we can see bigger storm systems try to fire up right along the edge of that. George Bailey, Meteorologist for News Nation. Thanks to right. I appreciate it. Absolutely any time. Snowy traffic E. Here's Mary. And still have the snow 14 degrees and low of zero tonight tomorrow partly sunny high of 13 not seeing a lot of accidents on the main roads, but.

A Deep Dive on the Cashew Family
"So roughly speaking. How many taxonomic units within this family. We're going say species. We'll go a species here but how big is and a car. Dac eight hundred species somewhere around there. We're constantly and finding new species surround eight hundred contender about eight two or three or four genera- it depends on who you ask for aforementioned reasons and is there like a center diversity for the group or the kind of globally spread. Yeah so malaysia Southeast asia senator diversity for sure. But they're really found on most. I mean most landmasses have heard. Ac temper plants are. They're tropical answer mostly tropical but certainly very diverse in temperate zones as well. They're not a new zealand and not in extreme southern tip of south america Extreme northern places. They're not typically although when john and i were doing the trick for the floor of north america someone reported finding of poison ivy in very northern part of canada. And we just no way. We didn't believe in sure enough photo of it. In this specimen basically there is a hot spring in somehow some probably averred carried it seed of poison ivy from southern canada and it happened to land on this. Very warm spot. It doesn't get as cold and it's there while so yeah that's remarkable and at least with this you can say with some certainty. It wasn't human involvement. i don't know too. Many people planting poison ivy seeds. But a lotta really cool bio geographic questions you can answer or ask their potentially ensure there's endless answers to or hypotheses. You could come up with but you mentioned in the beginning that you started very broad. And that's still a lot of species to contend with. What were some of the broader questions. You were just trying to ask a lot of just. How do these generous sort out. Roughly how many species can we throw in them. Those sorts of things. Yeah so i was interested in looking at the certain classification evolution across the whole family and looking at the trends and the different policies that have evolved within the family chemistry often the family of really trying to get a basic handle basic understanding of what are some of the sort of units within the family whether those genera were there larger groups of general things that things that we call serb families or through a claims within the family evolutionary units within the family. So he did some sequence analysis in a lot of different logical characters To do that and got kind of an interview picture of the evolution of the family. It was large reflective of what we what people have thought for for a number of of decades in century. In fact about how the family is kind of organized internally but there were some big surprises in that two things that had been treated as separate families bhai som- had been put into the family of by others. Were certainly found to be within the carnousie. So i'm not nice nicely reassuring us in abilities of people before us to assess the investigation of the family using traditional techniques and then from there was able sorta kinda pony on on some of the general that we are particularly interested in and do some more kind of detailed apologetic analyses of of some of the clays within the families of this evolutionary unions within the camera. Yeah hearing it that way. It makes sense why. You'd want to start broadly and then start taking about tinkering with the smaller units of this. But it's always really exciting to me when you read these big genetic treatments of groups and you're like wow yeah. They were pretty spot on a century or more ago.

"The Internet, it's how we work how go to school, how we see friends and family. But not everyone has a good connection and that's where a few tech companies come in with a sort of modest proposal. What have we got our Internet from Outerspace Adam Clark estes deputy editor at recode wrote about this, and is here to talk about Adam. Surprising thing in your story that a lot of people probably don't already know is that a lot of listeners already get through Internet via satellite. That's how we get wi fi on planes for instance. So why hasn't this taken off more broadly satellite Internet has historically been and? Just. A little bit sub par When you compare it to terrestrial Wifi, you're down on planet earth. We have fiber optic cables which basically have limited bandwidth and to do satellite Internet. You're basically beaming connection from address Joe Network up to satellite and back down and technology just hasn't been good enough to to get with to enough people so that it compares to terrestrial broadband.

You might get from a variety inner time Warner A, but that's starting to change with new satellite technology and would call constellations of satellites and has pandemic at all sort of raise the stakes for this work and made it. More, urgent less-urgent. Tell me about that depend epic is. Really accelerated development, and especially investment in the technology. Just after the pandemic started, it became incredibly clear that a lot of people don't have Internet access and they're being left behind young students who aren't able to get online for classes, people who aren't able to to to work remotely. So once it became so clear that solving this problem of Internet access was urgent a lot more investment went into Xilai. Broadband initiatives the number of launches went up quite a bit and I. Think, we're GONNA see that investment continue and more these networks go online in the near future Gotcha. So who exactly is trying to do this? What are the different companies that see a future in? Internet for space, the two companies being talked about both right now our space x and Amazon both of them are launching what are called low earth orbit constellations into space this year, and in addition to them, there are companies that have had satellites These are the companies that. You. Probably. Use to get a connection on a plane or a train and via sat and Hughes two big players in that space and part of the idea is tabby satellites be sort of a low orbit, right? So there are two main types of satellite broadband setups. One is geosynchronous satellites geosynchronous satellite. Okay. So A geosynchronous satellites as above one place on earth and spins with the earth so that it can be connected down to to anywhere on the surface at any given time. The second kind and this is sort of the the newer more exciting type according to some. This is what spacex, Amazon or doing. These are called low earth orbit satellites. Geosynchronous satellites are thousands of miles above the earth surface low orbit satellites. However, as the name implies are much closer, they might be as little as three hundred miles above earth surface. I think it SPACEX, they're going to be about three, hundred and. Forty miles above the surface, and that means that the distance that the signal has to travel is much less, which means you get lower latency that means you won't get a lag on a connection and because there are a lot of different satellites, Elon Musk, and spacex say that you'll have a bandwidth that will be able to compete with terrestrial broadband and even fiber optic networks, Gotcha and SPACEX and Amazon are doing this. I assume just because there's money to be made right I. Mean I got think. There's a bounty at the end Elon. Musk has said that he just wants to get into the business and he wants to disrupt the telecom business and he believes that he can make enough money doing. So to help fund his mission to colonize Mars. Amazon hasn't said that much about why they're doing it It might also be just to get into the telecom business in compete in an industry that is is fairly monopolized. Others have hypothesized at Amazon wants to get into the satellite broadband business because then they could be their own first customer, Amazon web services, of course, offers a lot of cloud computing technology and the ability. To be connected to the Internet anywhere on Earth, could do a number of different great things, aws. Got It. So the answer is a mix of just straight up capitalism money to be made if we don't make it someone else will, and then another incentive is that this could be pretty synergistic with the main business and I'd add a third thing and and everybody mentions this. Bridging the digital divide is not only good for business. It's sort of good for mankind connecting more people to the Internet stands to have great unforeseen benefits space experts didn't says. The connecting people that previously could not get Internet access in parts of the rural United States and southern Canada. Like the Pacific Northwest Region is where they've had Beta, testers and I think that a lot of different companies have really pursued the dream of satellite broadband because it can reach people in areas that no one else can these are areas that aren't served by big telecom companies where there aren't fiber optic cables and in fact, would be expensive to build that infrastructure that no one has ever going to do it.
A Way to Garden with Margaret Roach
Summer Wildflowers With Carol Gracie
"I asked when we spoke I. Don't know a few years back upon the publication of your book spring wildflowers of the Northeast The sub pad on the cover of the new book. summer book as on the old one, says unnatural history and I'd like to know what that means. Tell people what that means. Well. It means looking beyond just the beauty of the flowers and learning about how they fit into the environment. And what their importance is to insects or birds or other animals? And sometimes to other plants as well. So, I like people to know how these plants work in the environment. What their what their roles are. You encourage us. I think in the tax in the preface of the book you encourage us when we're looking at Alzheimer's to almost act as a as a burder does when watching birds yeah. Yeah I do because it's not just checking off that you've seen a Canada Lily for example. Or you've seen. Have Sparrow. It's really observing what organism is doing. And there are still things to be learned about even our local wildflowers. That, have not been observed because people just think well, they're common. They've been here forever. Anything that is known about the must be must be written already. But yet if you just take the time and patience to sit there and watch, you could discover something new. And you'll discover something interesting. Fit Your your book in the title and Zeroes in on the northeast, but we should say where that is because it's not a small area, the northeast in terms of ripe. Thank you for doing that. I'm using the concept that was used in gleason and Cronquist, which is the manual for vascular plants of the Northeast and his concept of the north. East goes from southern Canada. Down along more or less than Mississippi River down to. Northern Missouri and across into Kentucky. And So it's a big area I've. Had People say oh I'm from Virginia I'm I'm sorry? I can't buy that book because it doesn't have any of my plants in. But these plans are awesome. Ranging and many of them are in the Midwest and in the. Northern part of the south as well. so for example one. That's in the book. I don't know how you managed to choose I. Mean because there's a lot of plants out there in that regional area that are bloom in the summer from early. To late. But you. You picked A. How many are there in the bucket their third year? Omni Arthur There are more there about thirty five, I, think. More than that, because in some chapters I cover many more than one species. Of Related Species for instance. Right, so for instance you chose Common Milkweed, and there are other milkweed Zvi chose common milkweed, and that is over a far wider range than what we just talked about. Right and that goes even beyond the. Northeast Important! For many reasons, I'm sure all of your listeners are familiar with the milkweed monarch story, but it has many other interactions with other insects in particular. Right make it fascinating to me. So. Let's talk a little bit about that. The species is so it's a sleepiest. Dhia Syria which may sound surprising because it indicates that it comes from Syria. But in fact, that goes back to a mistake that was made back in the sixteen hundreds. When this plant was first brought back to European. To describe. And they it as being the same as a plant that had been discovered in Syria. And thus they lump it into that same species, which is opossums, Syriac Him And, when lineas realized that it was a different. Genus that it was far different from a possum. He'd put it into a different genus asleep, but by the rules of botanical nomenclature he had to keep the the second part of the name, the specific epithet.
