Hannah is the Industry Lead for The VINE at UC Ag and Natural Resources. Connie is the founding general partner at Farmhand Ventures who works with The VINE. Danny is CEO and managing partner at Reservoir, which includes Reservoir Ventures, and nonprofit incubators, Reservoir Farms & Labs, which is what he'll be talking about today. I attended FIRA-USA this past October to try to better understand what's happening in ag robotics and automation. What I didn't expect was to see some really fascinating public-private partnership efforts that I think fill some real needs in agriculture innovation. But as luck would have it, that's what happened, and so I wanted to put together this episode to highlight it. I think this type of work is critical. Running a farm, doing industry-leading research, growing a startup, all of these things are all-consuming tasks. It really is important to build the connective tissue to empower and fully enable new and lasting innovations in agtech. Brought to you by Case IH: Case IH designs,engineers and produces cutting-edge farm equipment based on a comprehensive understanding of farmers' needs, wants and challenges, integrating these insights into their development and manufacturing.For example, take their Model Year 25 Magnum tractor. The new Magnum is purposefully designed to answer farmers' needs in every design and engineering choice. Improved horsepower for pulling heavier loads, faster. Bundled, integrated and ready-to-go precision tech for greater accuracy in the field. And a transmission farmers can tweak for improved control and performance in different tasks. That kind of design thinking is exactly where the future of ag is headed, and that's why you'll be hearing me talk to the folks at Case IH at different points throughout this quarter about what they do and how they're working to push the ag forward.

Mulder listens to Olivia Rodrigo and gets all up in his feelings.   Produced by Kristen Riley and Daive Reed Follow on Twitter @CastFiles Email us at TheeCastFiles@gmail.com Music by Hal Six  Logo by @OokaArt Patreon   Summary Camping at night at Lake Okobogee – teenage girl and younger boy outside by the fire. Mother inside the camper.  Full cup of cold coffee on a saucer does the “T-Rex is coming jiggle” as lights flash outside and there's an earthquake. For a camper, there are a ton of breakable dishes - more than we have in our immobile apartment.  Kevin screams for his mom as she flops around like a fish, when she reaches the doorknob she burns her hand.  Finally opening the door, Kevin says Ruby, his sister is gone.  Why didn't Kevin try to open the camper? Why was the door handle searingly hot, but nothing else was impacted by heat?   About Okoboji Actual spelling O K O B O J I, spelling in “Conduit” O K O B O G E E. In reality, Iowa's small town Okoboji which is located on west lake, is surrounded by mostly flat terrain, but was shown in "Conduit" as being surrounded by mountains.  The episode also places the lake near Sioux City, Iowa. They are actually more than 110 miles apart. Mulder also mentions trout fishing, there are no trout in lake Okoboji.  FBI HEADQUARTERS WASHINGTON, D.C. Chief Blevins informs Special Agent Dana Scully of a 302 that Blevins has indirectly received from Agent Fox Mulder. A 302 is effectively petitioning the FBI to assign a case number to a tabloid headline – specifically, "Teen Taken From Tent By Aliens." This is where Mulder's past gets further explanation.  In frustration with Mulder, Blevins tells Scully that the otherwise unexplained Blevins shows Scully case X-40253 – which concerns the disappearance of Mulder's sister, Samantha, an incident that happened years ago – and considers that Mulder's personal quest to discover his sister's fate is clouding his judgment. Scully disagrees with this suggestion and asks to not only talk to Mulder but to also make a recommendation to Blevins on the subject, before he disallows the 302. In the basement office of the X-Files unit, Scully challenges Mulder on the validity of his request. Mulder replies the disappearance occurred at Lake Okobogee, a known UFO Hotspot. He also lets Scully know that one of four well-documented UFO sightings from 1967 involved a young girl scout, now the missing girl's mother, Darlene Morris. SIOUX CITY, IOWA The next day (on August 26), Mulder and Scully arrive at the Morris residence in Sioux City, Iowa and are welcomed inside by Darlene, who tries to introduce them to Kevin but he ignores them, all the while scribbling something on paper. Mulder studies a row of family portrait photographs on a mantelpiece and affectionately touches one of Ruby Morris, Scully noticing he feels personally connected to the case. Darlene gives a statement to the agents, claiming she and Kevin have been traumatized by the loss of Ruby, such as Kevin having been acting strangely since the disappearance. Questioning Darlene, Scully implies a suspicion Ruby may have been taken by Charles, Darlene's former husband, though Darlene herself denies this, insisting a UFO was once again involved.  CDC Divorce rates: provisional data for 1993 show the rate to be 4.6 divorces per 1,000 population. Divorce rate: provisional data for 2020: 2.7 per 1,000 population  She realizes Mulder has the same opinion but that Scully is more skeptical. Mulder tries to talk with Kevin but finds him busily watching static on the TV set and copying a binary string onto a pad of paper. Kevin insists the transmission is coming from the TV, even though Mulder observes only static. At the Sioux City Police station Mulder faxes Kevin's transmission fragment to Danny Bernstein at the FBI Cryptography Section. In a simultaneous telephone call Fox promises Danny tickets to a Redskins game as compensation for attempting to decipher the binary string. Sheriff Jack Withers (a former classmate of Darlene Morris) explains that Darlene has been telling stories of her UFO sighting since the first grade; most people in the area dismiss it as having an active imagination. This combined with Ruby's well-known wild-child attitude, a lack of evidence at the scene and no ransom note led to the case being dismissed as a simple runaway. Sheriff Jack Withers is a sexist, misogynist who believes teenage girls who are sexually active deserve to go missing.   Mulder and Scully find a note stuck to their car and covertly meet a friend of Ruby's in a public library who claims that Ruby's boyfriend, Greg Randall, got her pregnant and that the two had been planning to leave town. “She didn't have friends, just people she liked to hang out with.”  She directs Scully and Mulder to the Pennsylvania Pub, where Greg Randall works. Kip, the bartender, is a great character with an “awesome tattoo” - Mulder pretends not to believe. Kip shows them his ear saying "killer sunburn in the middle of the night" at Lake Okobogee. At 5:30 a.m. the next morning, agents from the NSA burst into Scully's hotel room demanding to know where Mulder is.  So, the NSA isn't even certain which room Mulder is in when his name would be on file.  Mulder is then quizzed by Agent Holtzman as to where he obtained the binary string he faxed the previous day which is revealed to be a defense satellite transmission. The Morris residence is ransacked by NSA Agents later that day, and Kevin's possessions are boxed up to be taken away for investigation, while many other items in the house are broken or damaged in casual disregard for the family's rights and freedoms.  The NSA separates the boy and his mother as Mulder and Scully arrive.  In Kevin's room Mulder comments on the destruction, then looks out the window to see the roof of the camper burnt. He goes outside and collects samples from the blistered roof of the camper.  As the operation draws to a close, Mulder and Scully arrive. Mulder collects samples of a substance blistered on the roof of the RV present at the lake on the night of the abduction. At the FBI regional office in Sioux City Agent Leza Atsumi explains that 77 pages of binary code recovered from the Morris residence were deciphered, the data included an image of DaVinci's Universal Man, a short animation of a DNA double helix and a short segment of music from the Brandenburg Concerto, some lines from the Koran and a Shakespearean sonnet. Mulder says it's “almost like someone switching channels' '. notes that the fragmented nature of the data and its varying origins implies time-division-multiplexing - this is a means of sending multiple messages to multiple destinations/clients at once in a single transmission. Darlene and Kevin Morris are roughly ejected from the NSA building, while Darlene explains that she wants nothing more to do with the FBI, Kevin stares blankly at some CCTV monitors, perhaps seeing embedded transmissions in these too. Like every child ever. Have you seen a kid on CCTV when they can see themselves? Mulder explains to Scully that he believes Kevin “is a conduit” to whoever or whatever took Ruby that night.” has been touched by whatever abducted Ruby, allowing him to perceive these transmissions, the two return to Campsite 53 in the hopes of discovering the truth in the absence of any other evidence. They notice that a line of trees beside the lake have been singed by extreme heat, Mulder then discovers chunks of glass in the sand on the shore also formed by extreme heat (of at least 2500 °F).  GOOGLE / Science Corner 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit Air is a very poor conductor of electricity and gets extremely hot when lightning passes through it. In fact, lightning can heat the air it passes through to 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit (5 times hotter than the surface of the sun). Lightning is hotter than lava. Lightning because lightning is 70,000 degrees Fahrenheit. Lava is just 2,240 degrees Fahrenheit.  Mulder sights a wolf that leads him to the discovery of a shallow grave just inside the forest. They're all white. Only about 6% of wolves outside the Canadian High Arctic tundra Mulder chases the wolf into the forest, and finds 3 wolves on a grave. Why would a wild animal lead a human to its food source? Mulder discovers that the grave contains Greg Randall's body. The sheriff, in all his glory, says “Ruby had a lot of boyfriends.” F*CK YOU! Mulder finds a note inside Greg's wallet that reads: Dr. Jack Fowler Aug.7 - 2:30 They match the hand-writing from this note to the one pinned to their car; both are written by the girl they met at the library whose name they discover to be Tessa. The Sheriff had discovered from Dr. Fowler that the appointment was for Tessa and that she had lied to them, in fact she was pregnant, not Ruby. Greg Randall was the father and he and Tessa had planned to run away.  Tessa waived the right to an attorney. DON'T DO THAT! Mulder presses her into slipping up and revealing that she killed Greg and would've killed Ruby had she had the opportunity. Scully argues that they should now hand the case over to local law enforcement and close the X-file, Mulder refuses and presses on to try to find Ruby. Mulder playing “bad cop” isn't my favorite. “Mulder STOP. Stop running after your sister.” - Scully They return to the Morris house, which is empty, with the front door unlocked and many sheets of paper laid out on the lounge floor. The papers are covered in neatly written binary strings, Scully looks at the arrangement from the mezzanine level above the lounge and from this new perspective sees the chilling image of Ruby Morris' face made up from 1's and 0's. ("Chris Carter Talks About Season One Episodes: Conduit", The X-Files (season 1) DVD special features) The huge mural consisting of binary code was, according to Gordon, something that the writers deemed "specifically weird" and "would give you the creeps." He postulated, "All this information would be regurgitated to Kevin from these extraterrestrials through the television. 'We have her, she's here, she's OK.' The question was, how do you find something that doesn't make sense until another angle illuminates it? We put it on the ground, where you can't really read it and then put the characters on the second floor."  They drive back to Lake Okobogee. Mulder explains a little more about his experience as a child.  They arrive and follow a trail, they hear Darlene yelling and run to find her. She's out of breath and says “it's here, I know it”. Mulder chases after Kevin.  In the dark, the pair return to Campsite 53 and find the Morris' RV abandoned by the shore. They follow a trail into the forest and find Darlene trying to catch her breath. Kevin had escaped her and had run deeper into the forest. Mulder finds Kevin walking towards a bright light which turns out to be the headlights from dozens of bikers off-roading through the forest. Kevin says “She's here, I know it.” Mulder basically says wishful thinking. No one is run over by the bikers. Also, are those Harley's off-roading? Mulder and Kevin run back when they hear Scully's screams to find an unconscious Ruby lying on the forest floor. At the Sioux City hospital Scully and Mulder discuss the health of Ruby who has been awake for a few hours. She has several unusual symptoms that Mulder claims can be caused by prolonged weightlessness. Ruby tells the pair that the "persons" who took her told her not to disclose any details of the abduction. Kevin presses her to tell Mulder who he says "already knows", but before Ruby can answer, she is interrupted by Darlene who because of the troubles "the truth" has brought her, tells the agents to leave and never contact Ruby again. When Mulder's desperate pleas to Darlene to let Ruby speak about her experiences are met with stark defiance, he appears crushed that "the truth" has eluded him once again. Back in Washington, Scully reviews Mulder's hypnotic regression tape concerning his sister's disappearance. Mulder describes the room, his paralysis and his sister's cries for help as she was being abducted, at the same time the real Mulder sits in a church crying, looking at his sister's photo. On the tape Mulder describes a voice he can hear in his head, telling him not to be scared and that one day his sister will return unharmed. Asked whether he believes the voice he replies: "I WANT to believe."
