In the Alaska Garden with Heidi Rader – Options for Small Scale Irrigation - Duration: 4:22.
Hi I'm Heidi Rader. I'm here at the Georgeson Botanical
Garden at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. I'm with Cooperative Extension
Service and Tanana Chiefs conference. Today we're going to be talking about
irrigation options for your garden. There's a lot of different options out there. The
simplest one is of course just a watering can, but if you have a big
garden or if you have a long ways to go from your water source to your garden it
can take a lot of time to water using a watering can and they can also get to be
a little heavy. You can also just use a hose and a hose connector. You want to
make sure you get one that doesn't spray the plants too hard but the problem with
using a hose is sometimes you drag it over your plants it might not reach your
entire garden and it takes a little bit of time to drag it to all of your
different rows so that can be a little bit of work too. You could also use a
sprinkler but when you use sprinklers you end up watering everything sometimes
you end up watering your paths and you get a lot of weeds growing and with all
these three different options the other issue is that you can't water as deeply
and thoroughly as is ideal for your garden. Ideally what you want to do is
water your garden really deeply and thoroughly so you get nicely
developed root systems. Also it's better not to water your foliage because
sometimes you get more diseases that way and so ideally you just want to water
your soil and as deeply and as infrequently as possible.
A couple other options are a soaker hose. This works really well just for a couple
garden beds but it can be pretty expensive for a large garden so one
soaker hose it's 25 feet that might be 10 to 15
dollars so it works really well in a small scale but for a larger scale what
you want to consider is using a drip irrigation system. I've got one set up
here in this garden and a drip irrigation system per row foot is going
to be your cheapest option and the nice thing is is you can customize it exactly
for the size and shape of your garden so after you plant you'd want to set it up
and it works really well for a square garden with rows like this. If you have
something more like containers or hanging baskets
instead of using drip tape and drip irrigation like this you're going to
want to use individual emitters and so this one will hook into your main line
with the this end and this just drips water into a pot or container. So
depending on your system you could use both in your garden you can even set
them up on different zones and those are going to be a really efficient way to
water your garden and you'll save water, you'll have fewer weeds, less disease and
ultimately you'll save time too. You can even set it up on a timer system and
go away for the weekend. So those are different options for watering your
garden and we'll talk more about drip irrigation in another video and that's
all we have for today. I'm Heidi Rader, hope to see you next time in the garden.

Historian: Republican Push to Replace Obamacare Reflects Radical Right's Stealth Plan for America - Duration: 10:38.
NERMEEN SHAIKH: As Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell attempts to revive a bill
to overturn Obamacare, we look today at the radical right's attempt to reshape the role
of the federal government—from healthcare to education to housing.
While the Congressional Budget Office predicts 22 million would lose health insurance as
a result of the Senate bill, some forces in the Republican Party, including the billionaire
Koch brothers, say the bill does not go far enough.
This comes as the Koch brothers recently announced plans to spend between $300 million and $400
million in the 2018 midterm elections.
During a retreat last week, Charles Koch said, quote, "We are more optimistic now about what
we can accomplish than we have ever been."
AMY GOODMAN: Well, as the Koch Brothers gear up for the 2018 elections, we turn now to
look at the ideological roots that have reshaped the Republican Party in recent decades.
A new book by the historian Nancy MacLean uncovers the instrumental role the late libertarian
economist James Buchanan played in the right's campaign to eliminate unions, suppress voting,
privatize schools and curb democratic majority rule.
Her book is titled Democracy in Chains: The Deep History of the Radical Right's Stealth
Plan for America.
MacLean is a professor of history and public policy at Duke University.
Nancy MacLean, welcome to Democracy Now!
It's great to have you with us.
NANCY MacLEAN: I'm so pleased to be with you.
AMY GOODMAN: Let's start with today's headline, the healthcare bill.
Deeply unpopular.
Let's just look quickly at the polls, across the board.
You have the Quinnipiac poll that says 16 percent of people in this country approve
the Republican plan.
You've got the USA Today poll, only 12 percent.
You've got NPR/PBS/Marist poll, 17 percent.
And yet the Republicans are attempting to revive it and push it through once again.
In your book, Democracy in Chains, you lay out the deep history of the radical right's
stealth plan for America.
Talk about this as an example of what you have found.
NANCY MacLEAN: Yes.
I had never encountered James Buchanan before I started the research that ultimately became
this book.
But what I learned in the course of that research is that this economist, who was trained at
the University of Chicago, who was part of the same milieu as Milton Friedman, Friedrich
Hayek and so forth, he went a distinctive way.
And he used the economic tools he got at the University of Chicago to look at politics
in a new way.
And he produced, ultimately, the kind of pernicious cynicism that we see all around us today and
that Donald Trump's candidacy and rhetoric embodies.
And in the healthcare debate, what we see is that Buchanan gave the advice to others
on the right and to his corporate funders and donors and the people that he talked to
that for capitalism of a kind they wanted to thrive, democracy must be enchained.
Democracy must be, in effect, shackled, to prevent the majority will from being expressed,
because it would take too much from people of great wealth, and that would be a problem
for them.
And so we see this being played out in the healthcare debate now, in which, as you quoted
in those polls, most people are horrified by this Republican proposal.
They don't want it.
They understand that people will die from it.
They understand that people who have cancer will be paying astronomical rates for their
healthcare if this thing goes through.
They understand what a—what a total disaster it is.
And yet one of our major political parties has become captive to these donor interests,
using the strategy that comes from Buchanan of changing the incentives and the rules,
and they are beholden to those donor networks.
What I think is fascinating is that our democracy is still working.
And so, some Senate Republicans are wavering, because they are actually listening to their
constituents and their voters, and they're getting tons of calls from their constituents
and their voters, and they're defying the Kochs.
AMY GOODMAN: But those were Buchanan's ideas—
NANCY MacLEAN: Yes.
AMY GOODMAN: —a Nobel Prize-winning economist.
NANCY MacLEAN: Right.
AMY GOODMAN: But talk about his relationship to, well, a key player in all of this, are
the Koch brothers.
NANCY MacLEAN: Yes.
AMY GOODMAN: They just held a retreat.
Talk about specifically what their relationship is, as they say they're going to pour hundreds
of millions of dollars into the elections coming up.
NANCY MacLEAN: Yes, and I should say it's a very interesting end story, because the
Kochs actually pushed James Buchanan aside when he began to raise some questions about
the way they were operating at George Mason University.
So, he was not as involved in the rollout.
It's really his ideas and his insights that they're applying, but they did not treat
him very well at the end.
And so—
AMY GOODMAN: How did they know each other?
NANCY MacLEAN: They came to know each other from Buchanan's book on campus unrest in
1969, which Koch's Center for Independent Education reprinted to get to more people.
It's basically the kind of manual that is transforming public higher education right
now.
So they got to know each other then.
Charles Koch joined something called the Mont Pelerin Society, which many of your listers
will be familiar with, in 1970, and actually advertised for all of his functions and his
organizations and his, you know, talent pipelines and his recruitment efforts in Mont Pelerin
Society materials.
So they—
AMY GOODMAN: And Mont Pelerin is?
NANCY MacLEAN: I'm so sorry.
Mont Pelerin is an international, invitation-only society by what some people would call free-market
fundamentalists, that was launched in 1947 and has spread to the entire world now.
It's invitation-only and includes arch-right economists, corporate officials.
Many leading operatives of the Koch-funded network are part of the Mont Pelerin Society
now.
So it's a very significant body.
And, in fact, it was at Mont Pelerin Society meetings that many of these ideas were discussed
and strategies were developed to implement, from what I've been able to pick up from
the documentary trail.
But Koch and Buchanan began to cooperate particularly in the 1970s, as Koch was launching what became
the Charles Koch—I mean, I'm sorry, the Cato Institute—it started as the Charles
Koch Foundation—and got to know each other over the years.
Buchanan also advised the Chilean dictatorship on a constitution that would enable them to
make a transition back to elected government, while keeping the radical, unpopular changes
that they had made in place.
And so, in the 1980s, in the wake of that Chilean experience, Buchanan also began to
advise Charles Koch's Cato Institute on a strategy for Social Security privatization,
which, again, would be starting from the recognition that what they wanted was not popular with
any constituency in America.
And Buchanan laid it out.
He said people, the old, the young, the black, the white, men, women—there was even another
category—nobody wants to see Social Security changed in the way that these guys wanted
to change it.
And so he laid out a step-by-step strategy for how to do that—how to spread misinformation,
how to break up existing coalitions, how to pick off existing Social Security recipients
so that they wouldn't be in the fight, because they'd be the most motivated.
It's really quite breathtaking stuff.
And it's the kind of strategic thinking that is now informing the entire Koch apparatus
in our country.
So, yeah, really, really serious stuff.
And I think, you know, we've had such brilliant journalism about the money trail on all of
this and the dark money.
But to really understand what's going on, I think we need to understand the ideas that
are guiding this and what the endgame is.
And I think once people understand those ideas and that endgame and how totally hostile it
is to democracy as we have known it over the 20th—you know, since 1900, I think that
they will really understand the scale of the threat that we're faced with.
NERMEEN SHAIKH: Well, Buchanan was from the South.
NANCY MacLEAN: Yes.
NERMEEN SHAIKH: Now, can you—unlike other Chicago school economists.
So can you explain how that was relevant to the ideas that he came up with, and also the
extent to which he transformed—his ideas were able to transform the Republican Party?
NANCY MacLEAN: Yes.
To make a long story short, he was born in Tennessee, raised in the South, actually had
a fellowship that required him to go back and teach in a Southern public institution
after he completed his degree.
And he specialized in public finance, which was very important to many governors and state
legislatures.
But in the South, there was a very draconian approach to public finance, so he fit in well
when he came home.
He believed that there should never be—you know, that there should be no deficits of
any kind, no deficit spending.
He had a very parsimonious approach to public spending of all kinds.
And he arrived in Virginia in 1956 just as that state was leading the South in a fight
against Brown v. Board of Education.
I want to be clear: I have no evidence of Buchanan saying anything about race, directly,
in his fight against Brown v. Board of Education.
But what he did, using his Chicago economics training, is make a case for arch-privatization
of all Virginia public education.
And we didn't even have the verb "privatize" or the noun "privatization" then.
But that's essentially what he advocated.
And that was the demand of the most arch-segregationists.
The leaders of massive resistance wanted that.
And in the end, Buchanan's proposal was too radical.
Just like today with the healthcare, Buchanan's proposal was too radical for even the most
right-wing Virginia—for the Virginia Legislature.
And so it was defeated.
And it was in the wake of that defeat that he began to develop this new way of thinking
about politics, as the state of Virginia finally became open to the majority of its citizens—and
I should add there, white as well as black.
Virginia practiced voter suppression to an extraordinary degree, such that some said
that next to Virginia, Mississippi a hotbed of democracy.
AMY GOODMAN: We're going to break and then come back to this discussion.
Our guest is Nancy MacLean.
She's author of the new book, Democracy in Chains: The Deep History of the Radical
Right's Stealth Plan for America.
She's professor of history and public policy at Duke University in North Carolina.
This is Democracy Now!
We'll be back with her in a minute.

Responsibility for Social Goes Beyond Content Teams - Duration: 3:36.
Your content team shouldn't be the only ones
managing your business's social media accounts.
(energetic music)
Hi, I'm Lauren Teague, and I'm a strategist
on the Convince & Convert consulting team.
And it irritates me frankly
that social media engagement has been boiled down
to just retweets and likes on our posts
or how many screenshots are taken of our snaps.
Slowly though, I see the pendulum is swinging back
to social media's origins as a community platform
and a place to build real relationships,
a place where engagement also means
how many people are talking to your brand in social media
and how often they're actually being helped,
or at least they receive a response.
And I don't think there's any better way
to build relationships and brand advocacy
than by including customer service
in your social media strategy.
You see, on New Year's Eve every year, my husband and I,
we always go see the Dallas Stars play a hockey game.
It's one our favorite traditions in annual date nights.
This year I must have tweeted, snapped, and Instagrammed
about a dozen times before and after the game,
and only once did I actually get a response
from anyone associated with the team.
But do you know what caught their attention?
It was finally when I mentioned their Stars game announcer
@JeffK in a tweet about the warm-up music,
and Jeff responded quickly and tagged the game night DJ
who then tweeted me a Dropbox link
to download the pregame mix.
How cool was that?
I was totally blown away by the speed
and the friendly responses from these two team employees
who were, by the way, also working their real jobs
during the game at the very same time.
And yet I saw nothing from the actual team account
whose jobs it was to post content throughout the night.
But then the disconnect between content
and service really hit home
when I saw a ticket servicing manager stop two rows
in front of me, and from the aisle he waved down the row
to get his client's attention,
and he apologized for not getting closer
because there was a full row of people there.
And so he did a wave by and left,
probably to go find another customer on his list.
Now, here's an employee whose job centers around service
to the ticket holders who buy tickets to the game,
and for him a stop by and wave was good enough.
But, dude, if I'm buying tickets from you,
I don't want your wave by.
I want you to be following my tweets through the game
and responding if I need you to.
Or better yet, give me a place in social media
where we can communicate together during the game
if I have a question or I actually need assistance.
You know, one in three people now prefer customer service
in social media compared to traditional channels
like the telephone and email.
And we know from research through Hug Your Haters
that responding to customer complaints or concerns
increases advocacy by 60%.
A study earlier this year by Russell Scibetti found
that only 16 of 146 professional sports teams
actually even allow anyone to direct message them on Twitter
without the team following them first.
So sports is just one of the industries
that hasn't awoken to this opportunity
for customer service in social.
But every day we're working
with consulting clients who are struggling
with how to bring their customer service teams up to speed
and then get them to a place
where these social teams feel comfortable
turning over the keys to their established accounts.
That's not an easy transition for any organization,
but now is the time to expand social media
beyond your content team.
So tell me how you're doing this
or why you haven't yet in the comments below,
or find us @convince on Twitter.
See you next time.

Magic Lantern Ep13 - King Arthur - stories for kids animated cartoons Moolt Kids Toons - Duration: 31:27.
Once upon a time when Mom and Dad were children
and used to go sledging and jumping the rope
all fairy tails were full of kindness
And the Lanterns were magical
Believe in a magical land
And see you together, it's grand
It's snorkeling adventure today
Our Lantern will show us the way
Magic lantern
Okay, Mike, stop playing
we're going to watch a slideshow now!
Not a chance!
This is so interesting right now!
The slideshow will be much more interesting
That is impossible!
This is a battle with mutant Martians with laser swords. Can you beat that?
OK, turn off the game and you will soon find out
Switching on the magic lantern
"Knights of the little round table", based on a book by
Thomas Malory
An old king had a newborn son. His name was Arthur
Everyone was very happy, especially the kind wizard Merlin
Oh yeah, that's very interesting. I'll try not to fall asleep
Except the evil and jealous
witch Morgana who was not happy about it
Oh witch, really? What is this, a story for babies?
The witch Morgana wanted to kidnap baby Arthur,
but Merlin found out about it and hid Arthur
with a family of fisherman
Oh, family of fisherman? Now we'll see a battle with fishing rods, won't we?
Arthur grew up and became a good fisherman, but he had no idea who his real
father was
I'm so sleepy
Mike, just pay attention. Soon the old king died, and the knights of the kingdom were
discussing who would be the one to take over the throne
So they talked about it for a
hundred years and died of boredom all in one day
The wizard Merlin gathered all the knights together and showed them a stone with a
majestic sword stuck in, and he said to the knights: "Whichever one of you is able
to remove that sword from the stone will rule the kingdom"
You mean that's it?
What's so hard about pulling out a sword?
One by one they took turns and tried to pull the sword out of the stone, but no
one could do it
The sword was magic
Maybe it was a laser sword?
Then the Knights decided to hold the tournament
and the winner of the tournament would become king
Hey, what about the sword? It's not fair!
All the inhabitants of the legendary kingdom came to the tournament
Arthur also came to sell fish there
Kate, but Arthur is the one! He's the son of the king!
He just doesn't know it yet
The tournament lasted very long, and Arthur got bored and went for a walk
Suddenly he saw a beautiful sword that was stuck in a stone
Come on, come on, get it!
Arthur grabbed the handle of the sword and took it out
like a knife out of butter
He really did it!
The knights stopped fighting and went to look at the Marvel boy who
pulled the sword from the Stone
It was all set up by Merlin!
And then Merlin emerged. "Everyone, meet your new king!"
This is Arthur!
I can just imagine how everyone's jaws dropped
Everyone was
very happy that they found their King, and Arthur was a bit lost
He only knew
how to catch fish!
I could have taught him
Merlin decided to give Arthur a little round table, so that the best knights
could gather around it and present the new king lots of useful advice
What kind of advice?
Arthur listened to their advice carefully and became a real king very soon
And before long legends were being written about King Arthur and his knights of the
little round table and then...
They're legends, huh?
OK, I gotta admit - it's interesting
Told you
