Bob Bosold discusses the dairy price outlook with Leonard Polzin, Dairy Markets and Policy Outreach Specialist at UW-River Falls. Hot weather on the way today with some measurable rain. That's the outlook from Stu Muck. A new food company is on its way to Jefferson County. Ben Jarboe finds out about the Finland based, OnegoBio Wisconsin native Chris Landowski is a co-founder and Chief Technical Officer for OnegoBio. He explains how they are able to work around the bird flu by brewing egg whites. Landowski also says that this Finland based company is building a new factory in Jefferson Wisconsin. In order to pick this they did a nationwide survey and Wisconsin's access to corn starch and great reputation as a food processing state made it an easy choice. Landowski also says that this new factory will be part of the Food and Beverage Innovation campus that is under way in Jefferson.This new factory looks to create 2,160 jobs during construction and 136 indirect jobs annually. They will also employ 81 direct full time employees to man the factory.You may not think about it daily, but there's a lot of research ongoing about pet food and livestock feed. Lara Moody is the executive director of the Institute for Feed Education and Research, a charity that works on behalf of the feed industry. One of their responsibilities is determining what’s trending in the pet food space. Moody tells Stephanie Hoff and the Mid-West Farm Report what's becoming available in the byproduct supply chain that meets the nutrition requirements for fur babies and the desires of pet parents.

In the words of The New Yorker, Charles Neidich “is an artist  of  uncommon merit -- a master of his instrument and, beyond that, an  interpreter  who keeps listeners hanging on each phrase.”        Charles is the artistic  director of the Wa Concert Series at  the Tenri Cultural Institute in New  York, which he founded with his wife, clarinetist Ayako Oshima, in September 2017. This concert series is inspired by the  Japanese concept “wa”—  meaning circle, but also harmony and completeness; each  performance is  thus paired with visual arts and offers a variety of culinary delicacies prepared by Ayako Oshima. In recent seasons, Charles has added conducting to his musical accomplishments. He has led the Cobb Symphony Orchestra and Georgia Symphony in performances of the Franck Symphony in D Minor and Mozart's Clarinet Concerto (also playing the solo clarinet part). Charles commands a repertoire of over 200 solo works, including pieces commissioned or inspired by him, as well as his own transcriptions of vocal and instrumental works. With a growing discography to his credit, he can be heard on the Chandos, Sony Classical, Sony Vivarte, Deutsche Grammophon, Musicmasters, Pantheon, and Bridge labels. His recorded repertoire ranges from familiar works by Mozart, Beethoven, Weber, and Brahms, to lesser-known compositions by Danzi, Reicha, Rossini, and Hummel, as well as music by Elliott Carter, Gyorgy Kurtag, and other contemporary masters. Although Charles became quite active in music at an early age, he opted against attending a music conservatory in favor of academic studies at Yale University, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts, cum laude, in Anthropology. In 1975 he became the first American to receive a Fulbright grant for study in the former Soviet Union, and he attended the Moscow Conservatory for three years where his teachers were Boris Dikov and Kirill Vinogradov. Charles Neidich has achieved recognition as a teacher in addition to his activities as a performer, and currently is a member of the artist faculties of The Juilliard School, the Manhattan School of Music, the Mannes College of Music. During the 1994-95 academic year he was a Visiting Professor at the Sibelius Academy in Finland where he taught, performed and conducted. Mr. Neidich is a long-time member of the renowned chamber ensemble Orpheus.

Send us a textGuess who's back in the Eurovision hot seat? After equipment delays and mental cobwebs, your favourite straight-talking podcast host returns to dissect Eurovision 2025 in all its controversial glory.Eurovision 2025 might not have delivered the strongest musical offerings, but it certainly provided enough drama, debates, and dance battles to keep fans entertained long after the confetti settled. The standout moment? That unexpected lyrical face-off between Baby Lasagna and Käärijä during what was supposed to be a simple interval act. When these two Eurovision icons hit the stage together, not a single viewer could resist squealing with delight. This "Eurodab" battle proved that while winning the trophy matters, sometimes winning the hearts of Eurovision fans is the real victory.Behind the sequins and key changes, this year's contest revealed fascinating cultural fault lines. Finland and Malta's performances highlighted what appears to be "the final taboo" – women's sexuality – triggering global conversations about representation and acceptance. Meanwhile, the enhanced anti-booing technology sparked debates about authenticity versus production values in broadcasting. Is it censorship or simply good television production? We'll unpack these questions and more in upcoming episodes, including a deep dive into the annual voting "controversies" that never seem to surprise yet always manage to inflame the Eurovision community.The podcast takes an unexpected but welcome turn when addressing post-Eurovision depression, offering practical mental health advice and emergency self-care tips (paper plates, anyone?). Whether you're suffering from Eurovision withdrawal or depression, remember that reaching out for professional help isn't weakness – it's winning at life. Subscribe now for our upcoming episodes featuring special guests, including the "continuously shirtless" Sam Tarling and various Eurovision personalities. Until then, take comfort knowing Austria awaits us in 2026!Support the show#eurovision

When it comes to battery storage deployment in Europe, most of the attention has been focused on familiar markets like the UK, Germany, and southern Europe. But in the background, a quieter shift has been taking place in the Nordics - one that's now starting to accelerate.Long seen as too stable, too hydro-dominated, or simply too slow, the Nordic markets were largely overlooked by early battery investors. Yet growing volatility, falling capex, and the evolving needs of a decarbonising grid have started to change the picture.In this episode of Transmission, we explore what's driving battery investment in Sweden, Finland, and beyond. From market signals and dispatch dynamics to cross-border optimisation and grid readiness, this conversation offers a window into a part of the European market that's now waking up and scaling fast. Quentin speaks with Nicklas Bäcker, Co-Founder & Chief Strategy Officer at Ingrid Capacity. Over the course of the conversation, you'll hear about:Why the Nordics were initially overlooked: How the prevalence of dispatchable hydro capacity led many investors to undervalue the incremental role of batteries in grid flexibility.Shifting storage economics: How declining capex, increased price volatility, and evolving ancillary service markets have improved the commercial viability of BESS in the region.Scaling rapidly in a new market: Insights into how more than €250 million was raised to deliver more than 200 MW of battery capacity within a compressed timeframe.Complementing hydro with fast-response assets: Why batteries offer unique value even in hydro-heavy systems. From frequency control to short-duration balancing and market arbitrage.A cross-border approach to Nordic flexibility: How project developers are expanding into Finland and other markets, and what differentiates the Nordic power system in a European context.About our guest:Nicklas Bäcker is Chief Strategy Officer at Ingrid Capacity, one of the fastest-growing battery storage platforms in Northern Europe. With a background in energy markets and infrastructure strategy, Nicklas plays a key role in shaping the company's growth across Sweden, Finland, and other European markets.

Welcome to another Trilogies episode where Anders & Adam Holmes move (briefly) away from a Galaxy, Far, Far, Away to war torn Italy. This episode we look at Roberto Rossellini's War Trilogy. Roberto Rossellini (father of Isabella Rossellini, plus ex-father in law to Martin Scorsese) was one of the most prominent directors of Italian Neo-Realist Cinema. A film movement where its stories focused mainly on the poor and working class. Films about everyday life, poverty and oppression. Films shot on location and used primarily non-classically trained actors. Actors basically picked off the street essentially. The Bicycle Thieves is a perfect example of Italian Neo-Realism. The movement influenced French New Wave for example. Along with Rossellini, other Italian filmmakers like Vittorio De Sica and Luchino Visconti popularised this very influential film movement. Rossellini's Neo-Realist War Trilogy started with Rome, Open City (1945), Paisan (1946) and concluded with Germany Year Zero (1948). Some of the first post-war films made in Italy and films that helped shape Italian Neo-Realism. Rome, Open City has a rare 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and is part of the Vatican's Important Films list. It's listed under the category Values. We hope you like this episode and stay tuned for more Trilogies episode. We will be putting a pause on our Trilogies series and moving onto another series of episodes we have in the works: Fascism On Film. The first episode of that series will be on Andor & Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. Stay tuned for that and for more episodes of The Movies And Me.

"Blossoming Wake was inspired by the field recording “By The Kukkia Lake” by Sirpa Jokinen. I was drawn to this field recording, which was made with a contact microphone, simply because I too have been using contact microphones to record outdoors.  "My sound sources consist of contact microphones placed in dead hollow trees (Clark Reservation, Jamesville, NY) and on a creaking gate (Three Falls Woods, Manlius, NY).  "Additional sound sources (made with a shotgun microphone) include rubber balls rubbed against a wooden sculpture (Stone Quarry Hill Art Park, Cazenovia, NY) and various water sounds (Crystal Lake, Benzie County, MI). All audio files used to create this “blended landscape” have been edited and processed in the studio using Cubase and Ableton." Kukkia lake, Finland reimagined by Edward Ruchalski.

On deportations and on foreign policy, the Trump administration is swapping out American values and violating everything the U.S. has stood for in exchange for kleptocracy and transactionalism with the world's worst tyrants. But at the same time, Trump can't even seem to grasp that Putin has been waging war for decades to accomplish his goals and is not interested in cutting a deal to end the bloodshed in Ukraine. Plus, the very dim appointees running our federal agencies, Elon and Marco are now trying to deny they cut food aid, and the unwelcome honorific of being a Trump historian.

And then you attach all the pieces together with glue or screws or nails or something like that.If you're wondering what the noise is, Jen's driving by in her gator, which kind of cracks me up because one of the last comments was that there was too much noise when I make these videos in town and some, someone wanted me to do them on the peaceful farm. And I thought I should do that. But, then there was still some traffic, wasn't there?WANT FREE ENGLISH LESSONS?

When you get home, you need to use the tools and the screws that they give you. Or maybe you need to get your own screwdriver and you take all the pieces. And when you're done, after you put the bed together, you have a, bed. So when you put something together, it's in pieces and then when it's done, it's whole.The other phrase I wanted to teach you today is to pull yourself together. I might have taught this one before. All of a sudden I just thought, maybe I have, but I'll teach it again. Anyways, if you are emotional, if you are sad or upset or crying, you might need to pull yourself together. Let's say you're at a wedding and it's beautiful and maybe someone you know is getting married and you're, you're just crying a little bit, but they're tears of joy. And then you have to go up and give a speech. You need to pull yourself together before you go up and give the speech. You need to get control of your emotions. You need to calm down.So to review, to put together, to put something together means, oh, here's another good example. If you ever played with Lego, you get a Lego set. And then you need to put together all the pieces to build what you are building. And to pull yourself together simply means to calm yourself down when you're in an emotional state. When you're in a heightened emotional state. But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. This comment is from ksenom. I never get up on the wrong side of the bed. There's a concrete wall. What's the difference between make the bed and assemble the bed? Dandelions grow here in Finland too. However, this spring, the night temperatures have been unusually low, so the flowers haven't appeared. Yet. And my response, when you buy a bed from a store, you assemble it. You do this once, you put it together. When you make the bed, you tidy up the blankets.So thanks ksenom. for that comment. And hopefully you understood the difference. When you use the verb to make the bed, it's to put all the blankets flat. But if you were to get wood and cut the wood and like, not assemble it, like you are literally going to build it, we could use the verb make as well. But generally, 99% of the time when you make the bed, it means you're putting the blankets on nicely.Today I wanted to talk about shade. The shade has returned on my farm, on my property. One of the problems with making videos in town is that you don't get to see all of the changes here on the farm property. So you can see that hopefully I'm not rotating you too quickly. You can see that shade has returned. I'm standing in the shade of this tree and it is beautiful. And hopefully, cross my fingers, the weather is beautiful on the first Saturday of June. And I can sit here. You'll recognize the view in a moment. I can sit here and do my lSupport the show

According to the 2025 World Happiness Report, Finland is believed to be the happiest country in the world, while the U.S. once again does not appear in the top ten. New York Times Best-selling author and Parker Gilbert Montgomery Professor at Harvard University, Arthur Brooks, explores how happiness is measured differently across cultures.  He explains the impediments to happiness, which often center around human mortality, detailing why the fear of not existing overrides the fear of dying. Arthur also discusses how religion plays a role in the fear of death and describes why 'working on the soul' will help remove the barriers to happiness.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Can President Trump get Ukraine and Russia to agree on a peace deal? If so, what happens next?     The US administration is pushing for a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine, but progress has been slow, and success remains uncertain. How likely is a long-term cessation of hostilities, and how could that affect Russia's military ambitions in Europe?     Join Steve Odland and guest Dr. Lori Esposito Murray, senior fellow for national security and managing director of CEO programs at the Council on Foreign Relations, to find out the major issues prolonging the Russia-Ukraine war, the potential Russian threat to Finland and the Baltics, and the details of the recent US-Ukraine deal on critical minerals.    (01:36) Occupied Regions and Military Tactics (03:05) International Efforts and Ceasefire Attempts (04:48) US and European Support Dynamics (07:06) Russia's Strategic Moves in Europe (10:06) Challenges in Peace Negotiations (11:22) Security Guarantees and Territorial Issues (23:52) Economic Agreements and Broader Implications   For more from The Conference Board:  Analyzing the US-Ukraine Minerals Deal  Three Years of War in Ukraine – and an Extraordinary Week  The Next One Hundred Days – and Beyond: What Lies Ahead 

Scientists think they might have found a planet that is "brimming with life," and we're pretty sure whoever lives there is way smarter than earthlings. We learn about a climber who had to be rescued twice in one week because he forgot his phone on the mountain. And we discuss a vintage story about a hiker who was lost and couldn't be rescued because when first responders called him he didn't pick up because he didn't recognize the number. We debate whether it was appropriate for a tennis player to tell her opponent to put on deodorant. We discuss the Oklahoma City bombing documentary, and how hearing the stories of the survivors helped portray the scope of loss. Susie is worried about a kind of hornet that is making its home in her town, and Sarah thinks they might be government drones or psyops. A town in Finland calls itself the home of Santa, but residents are fed up with all the tourists. We consider the backlash about tourism around the world and what's really driving it.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Cancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster at https://rocketmoney.com/braincandyVisit https://shopbeam.com/braincandy and use code BRAINCANDY to get our exclusive discount of up to 35% off.For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYGet 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life.

//The Wire//2300Z May 14, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: TRUMP'S MIDDLE EAST TRIP CONTINUES. NAVAL CONFRONTATION EMERGES IN THE GULF OF FINLAND.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Baltic: A brief scandal erupted between Russia and Estonia regarding the attempted halting of a cargo ship suspected of violating trade agreements. Estonian naval forces attempted to board the tanker M/T JAGUAR in the Gulf of Finland. This tanker was bound for Russia, and in a continuation of Estonia's history of detaining vessels suspected of breaching sanctions, Estonian forces attempted to conduct boarding operations to inspect (and probably detain) the vessel. In this case, however, Russian fighter jets appeared and carried out international relations in the form of buzzing the Estonian vessels and aircraft that were attempting to board the vessel. Due to this development, Estonian forces backed off, and halted the boarding attempt.AC: This confrontation is not entirely out of the realm of normalcy at this point, but it does highlight the tensions that remain between NATO and Russia. All it takes is one mistake for this passive-aggression to turn into active aggression, and for very serious consequences to occur.-HomeFront-Michigan: This morning federal authorities issued a press release detailing the arrest of Ammar Abdulmajid-Mohamed Said for his attempt to target a military installation in an act of terrorism. Said was arrested by undercover agents shortly before the alleged attack was to begin.AC: This is an interesting case, but as with all cases involving "confidential informants" that help a would-be terrorist plan their attack, more context would be helpful to determine what really happened. Based on the report itself, there are several details that would be careful to consider. For one, the very first line of the press release states that Said was a "former member of the Michigan Army National Guard"...however the next paragraph states that he is currently 19 years old. Since the shortest military service contracts are generally 4 years long, and one must be at least 17 years old to enlist in any service branch...something is off here. As such, the details of his discharge would be exceptionally helpful for determining if a pattern of terroristic behavior was displayed early on.Minnesota: Concerns are growing regarding a potential Presidential pardon of Derek Chauvin, the officer convicted during the George Floyd scandal years ago. Gov. Tim Walz has stated that the White House is planning to pardon Chauvin, however President Trump has stated that he knows nothing about this when directly questioned by reporters on the issue.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: This is almost certainly an information operation carried out by the guy who ran against Trump during the last election, and intended to stoke dissent at a time when race-relations in the United States are not doing well. For one, Derek Chauvin was convicted on state-level charges, so even if he was pardoned by President Trump for the federal hate-crime charges, he would still remain in prison on state charges for 22 more years. Gov. Walz's statements have also been very indicative of this being what one might colloquially refer to as a "psyop" because his statements (to paraphrase) essentially boil down to "well, we don't have any evidence that Trump is planning this pardon, but it seems like something he might do". So in other words, this a giant pile of nothing that has been plopped into the circuit for the media to chew on for a few days, and hopefully stir up another "mostly-peaceful" summer of violence. How successful this effort will be is anyone's guess.In the Middle East, President Trump's overseas visit continues as a plethora of trade deals are signed with various nations around the Middle East. Yesterday President Trump met with the

In 1980, Finnish singer Marion Rung won the Intervision Song Contest. Born in the 1960s, Intervision was the Eastern Bloc's answer to Eurovision. It ran until 1980, although in 2025 Russia's President Vladimir Putin ordered its revival. Finland, which maintained neutrality during the Cold War, was one of the few countries to participate in both competitions. Marion Rung achieved top 10 Eurovision finishes in 1962 and 1973 before winning Intervision. She speaks to Ben Henderson.Eye-witness accounts brought to life by archive.

You can learn all about fascinating and surprising stories, such as the time an Iraqi journalist hurled his shoes at the President of the United States in protest of America's occupation of Iraq; the creation of the Hollywood commercial that changed advertising forever; and the ascent of the first Aboriginal MP.(Photo: Marion Rung performing at the Intervision Song Contest in 1980.
