2015-16 FSU Swimming and Diving Schedule Released
The 2015-16 FSU swimming and diving schedule was released on Wednesday.
By Christa Salerno
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The Florida State swimming and diving teams released its 2015-16 season schedule on Wednesday.
"I like the way our schedule stacks up this year," FSU head coach Frank Bradley said. "It's very competitive and I think each meet will give us what we need in order to gear us towards the NCAA Championships."
The Seminoles will start the season with a prelim/final format competition at the All-Florida Invite in Gainesville, Fla. from Sept. 18-20.
"This is always a good start to the season," Bradley said. "It's a great indicator of what we have both in and out of the pool. It's truly the first test and a great introduction to the season."
Following the invite, FSU will welcome Minnesota for a dual meet on Oct. 3 at 10 a.m. It will be the first visit to Tallahassee for the Golden Gophers in program history. The Seminoles will also host Florida Gulf Coast and Florida Southern in a two-day tri-meet on Nov.6-7.
"It's great that we could add Minnesota," Bradley said. "Both their men's and women's teams are solid and their women won the Big Ten title last season on top of taking a few events at NCAA's. It should be a great meet."
FSU will compete in three other tri-meets on the road this season, first facing Duke and Queens University on Oct. 23.
Following the season training trip, the Seminoles will compete against FIU and Indian River State College on Dec. 15 before closing out the season in Auburn, Ala. facing both the Tigers and Wisconsin.
"All of these meet will be great for us," Bradley said. "These teams are talented and they're competitive. I also think that having to go against Auburn and Wisconsin at the end of the year is great timing. It will be an excellent challenge and it will get our kids into that postseason frame of mind."
FSU will also travel to a pair of duals against NC State on Oct. 24 at 11 a.m. and Florida on Jan. 2 in Gainesville.
"NC State and Florida are also teams in the top 10," Bradley said. "NC State is loaded after winning the ACC last season and Florida is always tough. Both should be tough tests."
Florida State will send members of the women's team to the SMU Classic on Oct. 16-17 and the entire team will contest in the Georgia Invite on Dec. 4-6.
"Both of those meets typically draw very fast teams," Bradley said. "The goal is to thrive in the postseason and these meets are loaded with talent and they'll help us prepare for that."
The ACC Championships will run from Feb. 17-20 and Feb. 24-27 with women's swimming and both men's and women's diving scheduled for the first week, followed by men's swimming on week two. Both meets will be held at the Greensboro Aquatic Center.
Both women's and men's NCAA Championships will be held in Atlanta, Ga. at the Georgia Tech Aquatic Center, which was the site of the 1996 Olympic Games.
The women's meet will run from March 17-19 while the men's championship will take place fromMarch 24-26.
"Having NCAA's at Georgia Tech could be an advantage for us," Bradley said. "It's close. We've competed at that pool in the past a lot and ACC's were there last year and it's fast. But we've got to put in the work up front in order to get as many kids there as possible."

I have been in practice for over 30 years and very early on in my career I began to see the connection between many of the health problems my patients were experiencing and their being overweight. I distinctly remember one patient who was suffering from chronic severe lower back pain, hip and knee pain. She was very overweight and on her very first visit she looked me in the eye and confessed, "Dr. Girgenti, you'd be surprised how little I eat. Why can't I lose weight?" I'll never forget the look in her eyes. It was a combination of pain, embarrassment and frustration. I remember not knowing what to say.....But I never forgot that look, and I never forgot that question. The question haunted me and I began to search for a way to help my patients be really successful at losing their weight and keeping it off for good. Every program I looked at seemed like a quick fix, a fad, or didn't make sense nutritionally. I looked for years and years and never found one I felt was good enough to bring to my patients....until now.
I'm happy to tell you that my search has finally ended! Fortunately for you I have found the answer to the question my patient asked me so many years ago. I'm delighted to be able to have something completely natural and effective to offer to people who want to sleep better, have more energy and lose weight.
I want to personally invite you to come in for a FREE introductory visit and learn about the connection between your hormones and weight gain. You'll find out how you too can become one of the thousands of patients who have been successful in losing weight and keeping it off. Let's begin together on building a healthier and happier you!
Yours for better health,
Dr. Girgenti

The never-ending requirement for wool by the Chinese is continuing to drive wool prices up this week. Wool from New Zealand has reached a six weeek price high! As of April 24th, the cost of lamb wool reached $6.60 for a kilogram which is an increase of 4.8% in just one week. In March of this year the same type of wool reached the price of $6.65 which was amazingly the highest price seen in four years. This dramatic price hike is thanks in no small part to the massive demand for this wool from China. During the same period, 35-micron wool has remained consistent in price over the past few weeks at $5.35 a kilogram. Continue reading

A registered non-profit charitable Society governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and supported by the community through memberships and donations. We are community based, working in cooperation with health care agencies and other community resources.
Revelstoke Hospice Society was incorporated February 15, 1994. The first annual general meeting March 8,1994. The purpose of the Society was to offer support by a community network of caring people for:
a} individuals facing life-threatening illness, terminal illness or bereavement
b} their families and friends and their caregivers, and
c} individuals facing social isolation.
Several people were involved when they saw a need in the community, Karen Herbert, Sherrian Van Goor, Linda Nixon, Gwynne Battersby, Jennifer Healey, Vivian Mitchell.
Queen Victoria Hospital converted one of their rooms to a hospice room. Cost $3,500 for renovations and equipment. The room was named the Phyllis Lapworth room in honour of a local resident who was involved with the Hospital Auxiliary. Financial aid came from the Masonic Lodge. A letter in the local paper by Penny Hardie, a volunteer, offered a personal account of the work of hospice with her mother. It gave a more human and unique touch to Hospice. The letter reiterated that there is help out there, you are not alone in caring for a loved one who is living while dying and Hospice can provide that support, caring and comfort.
Oct. 18, 1997 the dedication of "Circle of Life" by Father Dulong and Father John occurred at Queen Elizabeth Park. The Circle of Life embraces an oak tree. The tree, with its seasons, symbolizes the seasons in the journey in our lives. It's a quiet place to reflect about life or celebrations of life in the passing of a loved one.
Each year we have a Snowflake Ceremony where we invite the community and special guests, the Funeral Director, a Ministerial Representative, as well as a Revelstoke Highland Piper to participate in speaking and playing music in remembrance of loved ones. Symbolically we write the names of loved ones on laminated snowflakes and place on the tree. We have done this for 15 years, always on the first Sunday in December.
The Hospice Society has participated in a worldwide musical event "Voices for Hospice" to raise awareness and funds for Hospice. Our last event was in 2009 and was very successful, filling the United Church.
The Hospice Society furnished a newer room at Queen Victoria Hospital in 2003 We have also refurbished the Serenity Room beside this patient room. The local Quilters Guild and the Hospital Auxiliary helped to furnish both rooms.
Hospice participates in the Volunteer Fair and Seniors Wellness Fair and holds the annual Hike for Hospice in order to raise awareness and education throughout the community.
The Hospice Society planted a maple tree near the Circle of Life in memory of Lois Masur and Shirley Tomlinson, two dedicated volunteers.
(V. Mitchell 2010)
In 2015, the Hospice Society, with the financial support of the Hospital Auxiliary, furnished the Palliative Care Room in Mt Cartier Court. Following this move of the Palliative Care Room from Queen Victoria Hospital, Interior Health is continuing to furnish and maintain the Serenity Room in the best interests of its current patients.

Bedbugs are a hot topic in pest control.
Bedbugs are here in Muskegon area homes! Fortunately, observant residents are seeking help upon finding them in their homes. How do they get into these homes you ask? In todays mobile society, anyone from friends, relatives and children visiting other homes, in college or traveling can bring them home in their personal belongings, luggage and clothes. Bedbugs also come in furniture & bedding purchased second hand or donated to charity. Bed bugs may also travel between apartments through small crevices and cracks in walls and floors.
Bedbugs are small insects that feed on human blood. During their development they shed their skin 5 times and before each shed they must have a blood meal. They can mature in as little as a month. Bedbugs are usually active at night when people are sleeping. Adult bedbugs have a flat, reddish brown colored oval body. About the size of an apple seed, they are big enough to be easily seen but often hide in cracks in furniture, floors or walls, where they spend about 90% of their time. When bedbugs feed, their bodies swell and become brighter red (the article cited below contains a link to a video of a bedbug eating). They can live for several weeks or months without food or water.
How can you tell if you have bedbugs? Do you have bites? (See the cited article below.) Look for them where they hide and their evidence. Monitoring traps are practical and inexpensive. They provide an attractive hideout for bedbugs but have a glue system that traps them. You just place them and check 'em to see what's inside. We recommend the BDS monitoring traps.
Monitoring traps and glue boards are available at our on-line store and at our retail store to determine where the bedbugs have moved to and to assess the treatment progress until eradication has been accomplished.
If you find bedbugs you can treat the problem yourself! Our Bonide and Bedlam sprays are labeled for bedbug control and provide excellent control. Complete spraying of mattresses, box springs, bed frames, floors & carpets, areas behind headboards & footboards, pictures on wall, window sill cracks behind curtains & blinds, inside-behind-undersides of night stands & dressers/bureaus, undersides of chairs/sofas, under cushions and between folds of fabric where bedbugs crawl inside and hide.

P-51 44-73871 was directly delivered to the USAAF in late 1944. In December of 1950 she made the trip across the border towards Canada, where she became part of the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) as 9245.
During WWII, Canada had 5 squadrons equipped with Mustangs: N° 400, 414 & 430 flew Mustang Mk Is and N° 441 & 442 flew the Mk III and IVas.
After the war, an additional 130 P-51D model Mustangs were purchased from the US. The first 32 aircraft were delivered in June of 1947. Two more followed in July, 5 in October of 1950, 25 in November of 1950 and another 25 in December of 1950. The rest, 43 aircraft, followed during the first 3 months of 1951.
Serial numbers were allocated in two blocks: 9221 to and including 9300 and 9551 to and including 9600.
They served in 2 regular fighter squadrons and 6 auxiliary fighter squadrons:
The RCAF Mustang serial numbers were allocated in two blocks, 9221 to 9300 inclusive and 9551 to 9600 inclusive.
RCAF 9245 served with No. 416 (F) Squadron at RCAF Station Uplands, Ontario in 1951 and 1952. It then moved to RCAF Station Trenton, Ontario. It was struck off charge with the RCAF on May 2nd , 1956.
After it's service with the RCAF it was reported crated at Whiteman Air Park, California for shipment to Israel in 1959. It presumably served with the Israeli Defence Air Force (IDFAF), but there are no official records supporting this theory. However, in 1964, the owner of the plane was listed as Israel Aircraft Industries, so the aircraft must have definitely resided there during this time.
On June 22nd , 1964, it was sold to Pioneer Aero Service in Burbank, California, at which time the Mustang was reregistered as N7098V. In September of 1970, the aircraft changed owners again, this time to Cavalier Aircraft in Florida. It is not known if the aircraft was converted to a Cavalier Mustang and if so, what the exact changes were.
In 1978 the Mustang was sold to Albert McKinley. In 1990, the next owner became Elmer Ward of Pioneer Aero Service, who put the airframe up for restoration. During her restoration, it was decided to convert het into a TF-51 dual-control Mustang.
She made the first post-restoration flight in 1991 in her new paintscheme TF-871.
In 1991 she made her first overseas trip to Europe when she was passed on to Doug Arnold of Warbirds of Great Britain, based at Biggin Hill. She made her first flight over European soil on March 19th , 1992.
Only 4 years later, this Mustang made a trip back to the US, this time to new owner Ice Strike Corporation, based at Dover, Delaware on February 22nd , 1996. In September of that same year, she again had a new owner, Mustang Air Incorporate, at Wilmington, Delaware. It was there when she got the name Stephanie, which was later changed to Miss Stephanie and later on again to Dream Girl.
In 2006, she was again put up for sale and in late 2008, she made a second overseas trip to Europe, to German based owner MeierMotors. She also acquired the german registration D-FTSI.
The plane is nowadays used for training flights for other P-51 Mustang pilots. The new owner of another German P-51,
D-FPSI Lucky Lady VII, took his training lessons with 44-73871.
At present day, the owner of TF-871 is MaxAlpha Aviation GmbH, also based at Bremgarten airfield.
Paintscheme information
This particular TF-51 is painted in the post WWII USAF paint scheme, which was natural metal or a light grey paint with a large buzz-number painted on each side of the fuselage. It also wears the new US National Insignia, which saw the addition of a red bar in January of 1947.
The National Insignia is displayed on both sides of the fuselage and on the top left and bottom right wing. Capital block letters USAF are displayed on the bottom left and top right wing.
The markings U.S. AIR FORCE are displayed on both sides of the vertical tail fin, just above the radio call letter.
From P to F
Initially part of the United States Army , the USAF was formed as a separate branch of the military on September 18 th 1947 under the National Security Act of 1947 The Act created the United States Department of Defense , which was composed of three subordinate departments, namely the Department of the Army, the Department of the Navy and a newly-created Department of the Air Force.
Directly after WWII, the USAAF consolidated its wartime combat force and selected the P-51 Mustang as a standard piston-engine fighter. Other types were either withdrawn from service or given substantially reduced roles. As more advanced jet fighters such as the P-80 and P-84 arrived on the scene, the P-51 Mustang was also relegated to secondary status.
In 1947, the newly formed USAF Strategic Air Command employed P-51 Mustangs alongside F-6 Mustangs and F-82 Twin Mustangs due to their range capabilities.
In 1948, the P for Pursuit was changed to F for Fighter, thus designating all Mustangs to F-51s, more specific:
F-51B, formerly P-51B
F-51D, formerly P-51D
F-51K, formerly P-51K
TF-51D, formerly TP-51D ( factory converted, 2-seater, dual control conversion trainer, armed)
RF-51D , formerly FP-51D, which in turn formerly was the F-6D photo reconnaissance version, 2 cameras in rear fuselage, armed)
RF-51K, formerly FP-51K, which in turn formerly was the F-6K photo reconnaissance version, 1 camera in rear fuselage, armed)
TRF-51D, which was the RF-51D 2-seater conversion photo reconnaissance version
The Mustangs remained in service with the USAF from 1946 through 1951. By 1950, the majority of the Mustangs had been surplussed or transferred to the Air Force Reserves (AFRES) and the Air National Guard (ANG).

The national insignia has been displayed on the side of USAAF and later USAF aircraft since 1916. Changes in the design, size, color and location of the insignia have been the result of technical advances, mission changes and combat experience.
The first national marking was a five-pointed red star on the rudder or a variant of the red star within a white circle. Prior to WWI, Army aircraft had no official national insignia. The first design was a white star with a red center on a blue field and was placed on the top of the upper wing and the bottom of the lower wing.
Objections in 1918 by Col. William Billy Mitchell resulted in the adoption of a new design for easier recognition in combat in Europe. Three concentric circles were user, similar to the insignia of Britain and France, but with a different color sequence (from middle to outer circle the colors were white, blue and red). One month later, the sequence of rudder stripe colors was also altered with the blue placed at the rear and the red at the rudder post.
In May of 1919, use of the Star-in-Circle design was resumed on all U.S. military aircraft. The rudder marking also changed with blue at the rudder post.
In 1940, changes for camouflaged aircraft were adopted. The national insignia was removed from the lower left and upper right wingtips as a recognition aid, eliminating any advantage the balanced pattern of marking would have given to enemy gunners as an aiming point. This unbalanced pattern was later adopted for all USAAF aircraft. Also in 1940, the national insignia was added to each side of the fuselage. Nationality markings on the rudder were eliminated in 1940 from camouflaged aircraft and in 1942 from all other AAF planes.
In 1942, the underwing U.S. ARMY marking was discontinued and the first major change in 25 years in the Star-in-Circle design was made. To reduce possible confusion with the Japanese Hinomaru ("Meatball") insignia, the red center was ordered removed from the star. A yellow border surrounding the national insignia was used briefly beginning in late 1942 on some USAAF aircraft based in England and North Africa
On June 29th , 1943, the insignia underwent a second major change. A white rectangle or bar was added on each side of the blue circle with a red border surrounding the entire insignia. While the new design was estimated to be 60 percent more recognizable, the use of the red border was short lived.
On the final World War II national insignia, adopted on August 14th , 1943, the red border was replaced with one of blue. This change eliminated red from the national insignia until after WWII.
On January 14th , 1947, the USAD adopted a new design of the insignia. Horizontal red bars were added to the white blocks on either side of the circle. This basic design remains in use today on most USAF aircraft, albeit mostly in the low-visibility version.
What's the buzz?
Another practice adopted by the USAF after WWII through the early 1960s, was the addition of a so-called buzz-number. The buzz-number consisted of a large two-letter and three-number combination which was applied to both sides of the fuselage and on the underside the wing.
They were applied for general aerial identification of aircraft, but particularly for the identification of aircraft guilty of "buzzing" (very-low-altitude high-speed passes) over populated areas.
The first two letters of a buzz number indicated the type and designation of an aircraft while the last three were generally the last 3 digits of the aircraft serial number. Air Force fighters used buzz numbers starting with the letter F (or P, when fighters were designated as "pursuit" aircraft before June 1948), whilst the second letter indicated the aircraft type (for P-51 Mustangs this was also an F).
The three numbers were the last three digits of the aircraft serial number.
In the case of D-FTSI, the TF-871 stands for Trainer, P-51 Mustang and the last three digits of the serial number
We can put the timeframe of the paint scheme on D-FTSI somewhere between 1947 en 1950:

Gabrielle Lichterman, founder of PhaseMatcher Consulting, is introducing a revolutionary approach to the sales and service industry. It's a concept that has been entirely overlooked—but will forever change how sales and service professionals serve women ages 18 to 45.
In her motivating and educational keynote speech, Gabrielle explains why this simple approach is the key to increasing sales and creating lasting loyalty from female clientele.
Find out more about Gabrielle and how she can contribute to your upcoming event by downloading her Press Kit.
The majority of women ages 18 to 45 shift back and forth between two distinct shopping phases roughly every two weeks—and this makes them respond to sales and service techniques in completely opposite ways.
These changes are spurred by simple biology: Fluctuating hormones impact her spending habits, mood, energy and other facets that drive her shopping behavior.
Knowing which of the two shopping phases your client is currently in reveals…
Sales and service industry professionals don't need to know a thing about a woman's biology or hormones to figure out which shopping phase a client is currently in.
That's because the same biological changes behind her shopping behaviors also create easy-to-spot clues that help anyone quickly and easily pinpoint a client's shopping phase.
These clues include listening to her voice, gauging her energy and mood, looking at her clothing and accessories and watching her mannerisms.
Once you identify which shopping phase your client is in, you'll know what she wants out of her sales and service experience.
This information enables you to "phase match"—which means providing the type of experience that makes her happiest. For example, you may give her more attention or give her more space to browse, raise or lower your energy and share the kind of information about a product or service she wants to know.
The result? She'll enjoy doing business with you every time.
Gabrielle Lichterman is a pioneering expert in how biology drives the behavior of women ages 18 to 45.
As an author, journalist and founder of Hormonology, for over 20 years, Gabrielle has been examining studies and reporting on how hormones impact a woman's mood, energy, spending habits and more.
She's integrated hundreds of these studies from marketing and medical journals to create an overarching, holistic view of hormonal effects on shopping behavior—resulting in the PhaseMatcher approach to sales and service.
Gabrielle has been widely featured in the media (including TV, magazines, newspapers, radio, podcasts and websites) for her expertise on how biology drives women's behavior.
And, she served as a spokesperson for Procter & Gamble's Always "Have a happy period" campaign and Instead Softcup.

The Professional English language training program for journalists is delivered by the British Council on behalf of the US Embassy in Kazakhstan. The program is designed to support Kazakhstan's aspiration to develop the professionalism of journalists and expand knowledge of the English language as it becomes a trilingual society.
The program will provide 160 hours of English classes to journalists at Kazakhstani print, TV, radio and online media outlets in eight cities. Classes will run for a year from February 2019, with breaks over the summer and for Kazakhstani public holidays. Classes will be scheduled outside of normal working hours (exact schedule will depend on your location and English level).
Classes will be free for all participants, supported by a grant from the US Embassy in Kazakhstan. We will accept applicants with varying levels of English, from complete beginner through to upper intermediate.
To be eligible for a place on the program, journalists must:
- Be currently working as a journalist at a print, TV, radio or online media outlet in Kazakhstan
- Live and work in Nur-Sultan, Almaty, Aktobe, Aktau, Karaganda, Kostanai, Oskemen or Shymkent
- Be able to commit to attending 4.5 hours of classes per week, plus completing any homework assigned by their teacher.
Applications close on 19 December. To apply, please complete the application form at this link.
Based on journalists' answers to the questions on the application form, the US Embassy and British Council will carry out a pre-selection process. Applicants who are pre-selected will be informed by 24 December. Applicants who already know some English will be sent an online English placement test to be completed by 12 January. They may also be contacted by a language instructor to take part in a short spoken interview, to further help us assess their levels of English. These results will be used for placement in the correct group only; they will not affect whether a journalist is selected to join the program.
The final decision on participation in the program will be taken by the US Embassy in Kazakhstan. The decision will be taken based on a number of factors including city of residence, motivation for participation in the program, and level of support expressed by the employer.
Selected participants will be informed by 25 January. Courses will start on 11 February 2018.

North West University (South Africa) will be running SOLO in a pilot phase on a small number of distance students until the end of this year. SOLO will enable these students to work offline and only go online to synchronize announcements, resource and Melete e-guides. During this time we will resolve any issues that may arise.
The first official release will then be available from early next year. The current release can be seen as pre-release code and the current version is recommended for testing and evaluation purposes.
The beta version has been tested with Sakai 2.5.x and is available in SVN at https://source.sakaiproject.org/contrib/nwu/solo/trunk/.
Please note the following folders in SVN:
- soloclient_sakai:
Contains the GWT (Google Web Toolkit) source code that must be compiled to Javascript using the GWT compiler. This code contains good examples of how to use RPC (Remote Procedure Calls) to Sakai, reading remote XML files, populating grids and treeviews etc.
- soloserver_sakai:
The tool source code. Check out the use of a pure ext-js grid that is integrated into the Solo tool.
- deployments:
For users that are interested in trying it out. Just check out the latest deployment in the deployments folder and follow the installation instructions in the zip.

On Caitlin's first day, this city girl from Lake in the Hills, Illinois, found herself doing a full day of fieldwork, furiously planting pumpkins during one of the early summer's brief dry spells.
"I thought Kyle was a little crazy for making a city girl plant pumpkins on her very first day, especially because the internship job description didn't say anything about farm work," she says. "But it was fun seeing and being involved in the prep work for fall season."
After that first day, Caitlin kew she would be doing pretty much anything and everything that was needed, something that this UW-Platteville business administration major adapted to very quickly and is totally okay with. She started in our internship program this summer after spending 4 ½ months studying in London and touring Europe (she visited 9 countries during her trip!), and immediately felt at home on the farm.
"I love the people," says Caitlin, who applied to the farm because she had some really fun times here visiting during fall season with her friends. "I felt like family from the first day I came to work and that has grown every day since. Everyone is so welcoming and it's so nice to see a work community all be involved in anything that's needed to do what's best for the company."
"Everyone here pitches in and helps this business succeed," Caitlin added, stating that this is one of the most important things she's learned on the farm so far.
In Caitlin's free time (when she has it), she helps manage the UW-Platteville soccer team (she used to play but now manages due to an injury). She also loves to cook, watch movies, and hang out with friends. And she especially loves being outside and interacting with people, which has made this internship a perfect fit for her.
The very last thing this friendly and bubbly person wants to do in the future is sit in an office all day - which is exactly what she's NOT been doing here! So far, Caitlin has been involved in starting our ice cream business - she's been the primary person at our tastings, serving up ice cream - and has staffed our strawberry tent. She's planted pumpkins, helped with events, worked with Kyle on some social media projects and contests, and has been learning the general ropes of running a small business that has its hands in about fifteen different pots at once. She'll be sticking around throughout the summer and will help us during fall season, which she's really excited about.
One of her favorite things has been interacting with the farm guests. "Everyone has their own unique stories about the farm and it's been so fun to hear why they enjoy the farm," she says. Your feedback and conversation with Caitlin has been a great learning experience for her - "It helps me to learn what people value in a business, which I'll take with me in my future endeavors!"
For life after college, Caitlin has big plans. Her dream job is to work in a non-profit that benefits children, but she would be happy working for a small company that makes a difference in some way within their community. At the farm, she's been learning all about being involved in a small business, gaining leadership skills and developing planning/organizational skills to work projects from their original conception to the final project. She's excited to keep learning skills and gaining experience during this internship that will help her towards her future dreams.
Overall, Caitlin really likes the Platteville/southern Wisconsin area because it is so different from her home, where there is a lot going on all the time. When she came to school, she says she slowed down and felt less rushed. We hope that this city girl loves the country so much she sticks around for awhile, because we love her at the farm and are basically not letting her go!
Thanks so much Caitlin for everything that you're doing!
Kyle may run the farm, but he is not in control. The weather is.
"It's kind of amazing to me how many decisions I make based on what the weather is doing," he says.
Essentially from the time that the ground thaws in the spring to when it freezes in the winter, Kyle has his eyes on the forecast. He's watching for the fieldwork, of course, but weather also influences our weddings/events, our berry season, and our fall season. What Kyle looks for varies from week-to-week but also from type of work-to-type of work!
In the springtime, Kyle is immediately looking for when the snow will melt and when the frost will come out of the ground. A lot of his work is driven by how wet the ground is. When we have springtime weddings, he looks at how wet the ground is to make sure we don't leave ruts when bringing our ceremony benches out of storage. This often means comes in very early in the morning - when the ground is still frozen - to transport the benches without tearing up the lawn. Mowing is also another farm activity that is driven by the weather - the wetness of the ground drives when and where we can mow. Sometimes Kyle or one of our staff can mow all day - other times it's just for a couple hours in the afternoon after working on other projects waiting for things to dry out.
The fieldwork, however, is the most pressing and the most weather-dependent. Strawberries are the first thing on the springtime list, and we usually plant sometime in April. Because we get small berry plants from a company in Massachusetts, Kyle pays close attention to the weekly forecast so he can get the berries shipped to him within the right window. If it's going to rain, he'll hold off on delivery for another week or so to keep the berry plants in cold storage as long as possible.
This year, he went through a shipping issue week after week after week because of all the wet weather. There ended up being no good time to ship the berries, so they ended up in our cooler for about three weeks before we were able to get enough dry weather to get them into the ground. It wasn't the best for the berries, but the sheer determination of the rain necessitated this unique situation. Unfortunately, this was a theme for berries this year: the continual wet weather and absence of heat made it difficult for the berries to ripen evenly, and we experienced problems over and over with our berries because the weather simply didn't do what the berries needed it to do.
In the spring, we also plant pumpkins, which are not nearly as bad because they are seeds (not small plants) and they are generally planted later in the season, in late May. This year, however, it was still delayed because of the wet weather, and we didn't get them in the ground until mid-June. In fact, our business/marketing intern spent her first day on the job planting pumpkins because it was go-time and we needed an extra hand - not something she expected when she signed up for this internship!
Speaking of farm hands, weather even influences how many people Kyle has around to help him out! Most of our employees are in school or work another full-time job, so may of them aren't able ability come in on short notice on a weekday. When it's crunch time to get berries or pumpkins in the ground, Kyle can spend a few hours on the phone trying to find a few people to fill in round-the-clock shifts to get things planted. A lot of times when planting is in full swing, both the weather and our employee's schedules can mean some really wonky days for Kyle and the gang. Early mornings to get paperwork or scheduling done; then off for a full day of fieldwork; and then at night, a few hours of working in other things, like necessary projects (we had a few very late nights during our bridal suite construction) or setting up the barn for an upcoming event.
Once we're fully into summer and berry season is over, Kyle watches the weather to ensure things are done in time for our weddings and events, but also for windows of time to get projects done around the farm. Rain can often delay work on buildings, building new activities, or setting up for outdoor events. Summer is the time that Kyle can prioritize these projects, but if the weather doesn't hold up, they can be significantly delayed or canceled. Oftentimes, it's a matter of fitting these things in around the other daily things that need to be completed...when the weather allows, which again, can mean an abrupt change in Kyle's whole plan for the day based on what the weather throws at him.
During our fall season, Kyle's attention to the weather drives how many supplies he orders week-to-week, how he schedules our staff to cover the shifts, and how he plans picking pumpkins from the field for our retail area. He's constantly asking questions like, "Is the weather going to be hot so I might need more water? Or cooler and nice so I need more cups for hot chocolate? Will the weather exclude many people from coming to the farm so I need a smaller staff?" Every day is a question of what the weather will do and how will it affect fall season attendance and therefore affect Kyle's daily decisions.
Finally, when we close for fall and head into winter, Kyle scrambles to not only keep up with our private events and weddings, but also to get the fall tillage done, work on the berries, and take down and store all the things we use during fall season before winter fully hits and the ground freezes over. He needs a good few weeks of okay weather to get these things done, but last year, winter did not allow that. It froze over so quickly that some things were left out and a lot of the maintenance on the strawberries didn't get done. These things were left undone because of the weather, which can mean problems for the berries in the coming year and, of course, more work in the spring.
From April to November, Kyle's days are fully driven by weather. It affects his fieldwork, his scheduling, his meetings with people for the business end of his farm, and how many people are able to enjoy the things our farm has to offer. Over and over, Kyle asks himself "What is the weather going to allow me to do?" The answer to that question affects not only his day, but his employees, and his guests, so the answer is important for so many reasons and therefore one of the most significant - and stressful - things he does here on the farm.
Derri + Ryan (December 2018)
It felt like winter at Derri and Ryan's December reception, but it was a blast at the barn. This fun couple and their super fun family and friends kept us laughing all night. All the beautiful winter details were perfect: the greenery and the gold, and the love this couple has for each other, warmed up the barn on a chilly - but happy - winter night.
Congratulations, Derri and Ryan!

Cindy + Tim (DECEMBER 2018)
These two had been married for fifteen years before coming to the Farm to celebrate their vow renewal, and let me tell you, they were no less in love than any newlyweds. This intimate vow renewal and reception was lovely to be a part of, and the guests made us feel as welcome as we hope we did for them - they even included us in their photos (and let us taste the delicious cake)!
Congratulations, Cindy and Tim! We wish you and your beautiful little family many more years of happiness!

New Farm Crew: McKenna!
This year we hired on a new person, and her name is McKenna. She's from Fennimore and is super awesome at graphics and things, but the most important thing is that she's a redhead, which means we're best friends on principle.
McKenna is from the farm so she likes farm stuff, but this type of farm is a whole new ball of wax for her.
"I used to come during fall season when I was younger and have some really good memories of going through the corn maze with friends and spending time with my now-husband," says McKenna. But working here isn't anything like she expected!
Her first reaction when she came to interview for the job was that she was waaay overdressed. She was in formal interview attire while Kyle was in his ripped yellow t-shirt and farm jeans. Even though she felt uncomfortable in her heels, McKenna felt like part of the crew right away. And now that she's been here a few months, she's grown accustomed to the relaxed farm dress code. And she's learned and figured out all the weirdness of the farm: the strange hours, the weird projects, and all the bizarre things we get involved in. Plus, she's put in quite a bid to have Bruce teach her to run the catapult!
McKenna has made a lot of the graphics and videos and fun marketing things that you might have seen on the Facebook page lately, and she's been working really hard with Kyle to get our new ice cream business off the ground. She even spent an entire day with my (very grumpy) child taking photographs and arranging sets so we could get some fun pictures of our ice cream! She's really been enjoying bringing the farm into more visibility and testing out her creative chops.
In her free time, McKenna enjoys crafting; hunting in the fall; fishing on the boat in the summer; and dirt biking and four-wheeling. But in the last few months, she's been super preoccupied with wedding planning and traveling! She didn't get married on the farm (we're not holding that against her), but her wedding was Saturday, June 29th and she just got back from her honeymoon in Punta Cana. She's super excited to not only be married, but buy a house, and settle down in the area with her new husband, Kyle (not our Kyle; diesel mechanic Kyle Richard whom she's been dating for the past few years).
We're super happy for her and wish her the best! And we are excited for her return to the farm to hang out with us!
Meet the Farm Crew: Eric
Eric is another "jack of all trades, master of none" (his words, not ours!) employee at the farm. He started as a tractor driver in the fall of 2015 (the first year we opened in the new barn) driving the kiddie wagon and out to the pumpkin patch.
Since then, he's used his jack of all trades status to help with a variety of projects and jobs on the farm, like helping transform the old garage Kyle bought at auction into our bridal suite; cleaning and setting up for events; bartending during weddings; the person behind our (shhhhhhh...) Easter Bunny and Santa Claus; and even shooting off a few pumpkins during fall season every now and then! With the exception of helping in the kitchen, he's pretty much done it all. Even though his job description doesn't always match what he really ends up doing on his shift, Eric rolls with the punches and enjoys his time out at the farm. "Maybe that's the secret of Vesperman Farms," he laughs, "Everyone is willing to do anything we can to help make our customer experience a good one."
In his non-farm life, this employee is a homebody and a town loyal. He grew up in Lancaster and currently teaches tech ed at the high school, a position he's dreamt about since he was in college at UW-Platteville. He's happy in this town, loves teaching at his old high school, and spends a lot of time with his family, wife and kid (the "kid" part is soon to be plural, with his second on the way this July!), and dogs. You may recognize the brown dog - Maret makes frequent appearances on our Facebook page and Eric is often responsible for persuading her to pose for our never-ending photos.
In his free time, Eric is a woodworker who loves to create anything from cutting boards to kid's toys to built-in bookshelves. He's an experimenter more than an expert (he says he's made things that make great firewood), but he enjoys the challenges and rewards and lessons learned from every project. Much like his attitude out here on the farm, when it comes to his hobbies, the experience is just as rewarding as the end result.
Eric truly enjoys his many roles out on the farm, especially because he gets to share their excitement about a family trip to the pumpkin patch or a big celebration like a wedding. "Being able to be a part of their experiences is what I love most about working at Vesperman Farms," he says. His enthusiasm and love for our customers makes us happy to have Eric "wood chip" in - in any role!
Meet the Farm Crew: Elly!
Elly is the type of employee that this farm dreams of. She does it all: she can bartend, she does dishes, she washes pumpkins and plants strawberries, she can cook up pancakes like a dream, and she sets up the whole barn for fall season (and takes it all down when the fall fun is over), and she'll do it all with a smile on her face and a hilarious comment or story to boot.
And the best part about all this? She wasn't even looking for a job when she walked into the barn 4 years ago. But Kyle made sure she left with one.
During that fall season, Elly popped in for donuts and noticed that we were a little busy. Elly (being Elly) asked if Kyle needed any help. "And Kyle said, 'Come back tomorrow,'" Elly laughed. So she did and since then she's just done basically every job here at the farm. Elly loves to help and loves to give great customer service, enjoys being around people celebrating big and small milestones in their lives, and loves interacting with the families that spend their time out on the farm.
"The kids are the best part of working here - seeing their faces and hearing them talk about their experiences on the farm," says Elly, who a lot of people call the best checkout lady ever. "I love having the kids guess the weight of their own pumpkins and asking them how their day was." And Elly never passes up an opportunity to monitor the zip line, because she says "the adults are the best part."
In her other life, Elly owns and operates a little country tavern called Yoder's in Rockville and she brings the same hard work ethic and bright personality to her customers there, too. Elly loves Harley-Davidson; goes up north to Winter, WI, to ride side-by-sides; and - as a 14-year breast cancer survivor who knows how precious life is - spends as much time as she can with her family. She also has a motorcycle hearse - first I've ever heard of one! - that can be pulled behind a motorcycle for funeral processions.
"People warm my heart," Elly says, and she means it. She is nothing but genuine love and humor, and we always love when she's behind the bar, at the counter, or in the pumpkin patch.
We had such a good time tasting the flavors, but we can't keep them all to ourselves. We're even more excited to make them available to you! All through the month of June, we'll be at a variety of places where you can visit to taste our ice cream, culminating in a super fun event on the farm! For a list of tasting events, visit our website. More on our ice cream event on the farm below!
At the end of this month, we'll be hosting our first ever Sundaes on the Farm. Drop in Sunday, June 30 from 1 p.m. - 4 p.m. and enjoy the farm activities, but - most importantly - try our ice cream! All our flavors will be available for tasting and we'll have pints for purchase. Visit our website or check us out on Facebook for the full event details!
The Best Week Ever!
After attending ice cream school, Kyle had a pretty clear idea of what he wanted to do.
The first thing on the agenda was order the ice cream machine. At school, he got to experiment with a few different kinds of ice cream machines, and the one he liked best was an Emery Thompson, which is made by one of the oldest ice cream machine manufacturers in the country. A lot of recognizable names in the ice cream industry started out on this type of machine, including Ben & Jerry's and Haagen-Daaz. (Maybe one day we'll be on their website!)
The ice cream machine is small-ish, but it can produce about 7 gallons of ice cream in about 10 minutes, so it's a pretty powerful ice-cream-makin' machine.
Once Kyle got the machine, he got right down to business making ice cream, which was (I'm not gonna lie), pretty awesome for our staff. Below are some pictures of us making our delicious strawberry and mint cookie ice cream!
To start, Kyle had to get a good recipe for both chocolate and vanilla, and that experimentation process took a week or so. We went through quite a few batches of ice cream, all of which were thoroughly tested by our staff. We offered Kyle some valuable input and we raided the freezer more than once (okay, more than twice) to make sure things were in tip-top flavor.
Since then, we've worked on developing about 10 core flavors that people really enjoy, and the fun part has been learning about all the different types of ingredients and techniques that make ice cream great. What's the best ratio of caramel to ice cream? How many walnuts should be in the mix? And how do you get a really good swirl? We'll be experimenting with more flavors as we develop our brand - and our staff will be right there with us, especially in the fall when we begin to work on the magic equation we've all been waiting for: ice cream + donuts.
We're super excited to follow up what was the best week ever here at the farm with more weeks full of ice cream flavors and tasting. Check out our next blog for all our current flavors. And don't worry, we'll be updating you with any new developments on Facebook and on our webpage!

Why BookAbout Buchen
Thinking of how great executives are inspiring everyone to take actions eBook
It is astonishingly revealing, very useful and definitely deserving of the book's prize, let alone the Kindle Prize. I am tending to think that the whole wide planet would be much better off if more lives were to follow Sinek's easy notion. The book, on the other side, tortures itself in its redundance by often repetitively addressing the same example several occasions to address exactly the same point as the first used.
This is part of the great thing about the idea: it is unbelievably easy, yet surprisingly strong. Sinek, however, does not seem to have taken the liberty of distilling the concept of a mere demonstration in this book. It' s a little like he took items from his diary, put them in a big text processor paper, made some small changes, and filed the thing as it is for release to make this book.
So it' s a good thought and it' s a good thing to have, but in my modest view the book itself is very poorly organised and unnecessarily long. I' d recommend to those who are interested in Sinek's suggestions to spend a lot of money and money by looking at his TED Tal:):
Neither in this book nor in this lecture is the only thing Zinek does is to spelt out what "HOW" is. In the " WHY --> HOW --> WHAT " pattern, however, " HOW " is "how we implement our end (i.e. our " WHY "). From what I can tell, if you are reasonably smart, you can do just about everything that''s essence of Sinek's concept, on the basis of his TED Talk, along with this concept that'HOW' means something different in each of the two context he is contrasting.
In a nutshell, the book is a sensible purchase, certainly at Kindle's expense, but consider taking advantage of Sinek's 20-minute free of charge by first looking at his TED talc. When you want more detail, you can get the book, but realize that you are not likely to be learning much more than what you might have found out on your own between the conversation and what I am mentioning above.

Oscar-winning actress Lupita Nyong'o has become the latest to accuse Harvey Weinstein of a series of incidents of sexual harassment. Lupita's claims come amidst a growing list of women coming forward to talk about being assaulted by the film mogul.
In her account, she describes her feelings of guilt for not speaking out sooner, and vowed that the culture of silence must end.
34-year-old Lupita wrote in agonising detail about her encounters with the shamed Hollywood producer. The encounters began when she met him at an industry event in Berlin as a young actress. They ended when she stated that she did not want to work with him, in 2014.
"He was one of the first people I met in the industry, and he told me, 'This is the way it is.' And wherever I looked, everyone seemed to be bracing themselves and dealing with him, unchallenged," she wrote.
He invited her to his home in Connecticut for a film screening.
At his home, after the screening had begun, and with his young children in the room, he said he wanted to show her something. He took her up to his bedroom and said he wanted to give her a massage.
Lupita felt unsafe and panicked, and when he wanted to remove his trousers, she refused and left.
Weinstein has denied the claims. He is set to extend his treatment at a sex rehabilitation clinic for another month.
'At least he didn't discriminate'
Meanwhile, P Diddy's 'baby mama' Kim Porter has shocked the entertainment world after hearing about Lupita's claim. She said, "at least he (Weinstein) didn't discriminate". Porter was seemingly grateful that Weinstein included black women amongst his victims.
"How can you look for diversity in abuse? That is sick, twisted and damn pathetic. Shame on you, Kim Porter", Rashida Jennings tweeted.

With every new console launch comes a suite of hardware issues, and the Switch is no exception. People who bought Nintendo's hybrid console say they're running into all sorts of problems, ranging from big (crashes) to small (dead pixels).
There's no way to tell just how many Switch users have received malfunctioning consoles. We reached out to Nintendo yesterday to see if they have a sense of the scale here, and they haven't gotten back to us yet. But we've seen a large number of reports from people who say their sleek new $469.95 system is causing them all sorts of grief.
YouTube videos like this one, compiling all of the hardware problems, have gone mega-viral:
Here's a small sampling of the issues we've seen reported, although again, it's very difficult to tell what's present in a few dozen systems and what's present in a few thousand.
- Left JoyCon connectivity problems. This is the most common, and it's one that many of us on Team Kotaku have run into. The solution, of course, is to stay away from aquariums. (Or buy a Pro controller.)
- System crashes
- Unreasonably loud noises
- Dead pixels (which you should cherish IMO)
- Overheating
- Terrible Wi-Fi signal
- JoyCon wrist straps getting stuck (although this may be a design issue rather than a hardware failure)
- Screen flickering
- Screen getting scratched by the dock, which has apparently been pulled from Nintendo's store.
Tell us Kotaku readers who just bought Switches: Is yours working properly? Have you run into any of the problems listed here? Have you encountered entirely different problems? And does Zelda make up for all this?

The Sea King has a hunger, and it can only be satiated by land-dweller flesh! Argh!

ROOF WORK: Using your veiner, cut fairly deeply below the lower edge of the roof...
...to create an overhang
Cut back the walls below the overhang, making sure that you retain the level and the backward step of the front wall
TREE: Now you can take the background back another 3mm (1/8in), leaving the large tree raised. Take care with this step as the new level of the background will be the finished level. Do not leave cut marks in the background as they will show up when you add oil or wax to your finished carving
CHIMNEYS: Finish the chimneys, keeping as close as you can to the background to avoid shadows on the sky in your finished piece
WALLS: Draw in what detail you require on the walls of the cottage...
...and cut this in with your small V tool
DOOR: Set the door back from the surface
BUSHES: Using the inside of your shallow gouge, round off the bushes at the front
FENCE: Cut back the bottom of the fence to match the angle of the front wall and mark in the fence detail. Make sure any rails get closer as they get further away from the front of the picture
AND MORE TREES: Cut this detail and mark the shadows needed to define the trees on the left
WINDOW DETAIL: Cut in window detail with your knife. I find the best way is to cut a wedge out of the top corners of each pane...
...to get the desired effect - you run less risk of losing pieces of the window
Here all windows have been cut
BEAM WORK: Now, if you wish, you can lower the spaces between the beams to add more realism and you can be as fussy as you wish at this stage. Remember: this is an exercise and you do not necessarily have to be that fussy about your finish
NOW FOR THE FINISH: All that is left carving wise is to add any finer detail and to finish the carving as you wish. In general it is not advisable to do any sanding on a relief carving as you run the risk of losing the fine detail and the shadows you have carefully tried to include. If you donnâ?t wish to paint it I suggest a couple of coats of Danish oil, making sure you wipe off any surplus after each coat
You've got the all-important angles right so now is the time to give your carving real definition and perspective by adding the detail. Here's how.

I've shared before a little of our mystery shopping experiences. We have been enjoying the mystery shopping. We've had free dinners, free shopping, and earned a little money too. It isn't all fun and games though. Some shops are very easy, and others require a lot of detail. It all depends on what the company is looking for.
Companies hire a mystery shopping company to find out exactly how their customers are being treated. It is easy to put on a good show when the district manager is coming, but what is the experience of your average everyday customer? That is where mystery shoppers come in. When I worked in a restaurant I remember our manager telling us that it is estimated that over 90% of unhappy customers do not complain to the restaurant manager. Instead they simply do not return, and they tell their friends about their bad experience. How do you fix a problem you don't know exists? Using mystery shoppers can help.
We enjoy doing mystery shops, but know that the company is expecting results in return. It is a win win situation.
