This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Fessenden gives an overview of his presentation which covered both research and field information on automated milking systems. He recommends going back to basics and formulating a rumen-friendly PMR with a complementary palatable feed that encourages the cows into the robot system. (5:57)The panel discusses ideas for driving cows to the robot on different types of PMRs, management of transition and late lactation cows in automated milking systems, and the use of custom pellets versus other supplemental feeds in the robot. (9:04)Dr. Fessenden talks about some of his experiences visiting automated milking systems in Europe and some of the differences between European and North American approaches to diet formulations in automated systems. The group goes on to talk about different options for supplemental feed formulations in the robot. (18:38)Dr. Fessenden and Dr. Tylutki share ideas for how feeding technology could help both traditional and automated milking farms in the future. They discuss more precise grouping of cows and targeted feeding of those groups to better match requirements, as well as how movement to different pens and diet changes can impact milk production. (23:45) Dr. Tylutki updates the group on advancements in the AMTS balancing tools for multiple robot feeds. He and Dr. Fessenden describe the challenges of developing new tools that are streamlined and user-friendly for nutritionists. They also delve into the role artificial intelligence and machine learning might play in ration balancing in the future. (29:32)Dr. Fessenden encourages nutritionists to think outside the box when working with automated milking herds to make decisions that are right for that particular farm. Dr. Tylutki chimes in with advice to spend time actually watching the cows on the farm, and Dr. Van Soest echoes this sentiment when it comes to troubleshooting issues with the robots themselves. Don't just assume it's an issue with the ration - ask or observe for yourself what may have changed on the farm that could contribute to the issue the farm is facing.

Instagram @quadlifewithryan We sat down with Ryan Herrick from Fort Wayne and unpacked what it means to live independently with a C7 spinal cord injury, from driving solo and hotel check-ins to planning trips just because the city looks beautiful from a new angle. The talk is lean, real, and candid: no studio gloss, just two people trading tools for resilience in the middle of a busy Abilities Expo.Ryan shares how one broken vertebra redrew his map—and how community filled it back in. He hosts backyard barbecues that bring together a crowd of friends and wheelchairs, proof that access and joy grow when you gather. We question the word “acceptance,” keeping the facts while rejecting surrender, and we explore forgiveness around the drivers in our accidents—how to hold pain and still leave a door open. We also get practical about purpose: vocational rehab, peer advocacy, and the power of small audiences that actually care.Roll with us, then tell someone who needs a nudge.

In this powerful message, Pastor Khalid explores Judges 6:11–18 and the life of Gideon—how God called him out of hiding and into purpose. When we're suffering from secondhand trauma, it can be difficult to recognize God's presence, promises, and plans. But like Gideon, we're invited to shift our mindset and respond with a willing heart.#TraumatizedSeries #RedemptionChurchFW #PastorKhalid #FaithHealing #ChristianGrowth #Judges6 #SecondhandTrauma #SpiritualHealing #ChurchOnlineSupport the show
Today, we're going to be considering one of the most remarkable occurrences in all the Bible. It happened on a day when an ordinary man asked an extraordinary God for a miracle of the highest order. He asked for the sun to stand still. And it did!In Joshua 10, Joshua and his troops marched all night to come to the aid of their allies, the Gibeonites. A coalition of five kings had marched against Gibeon, seeking to take control of this strategic location before Joshua could occupy it. But Joshua's move surprised the enemy, the Lord threw them into confusion, and the rout was on. However, as night approached, Joshua realized they were running out of time. If these armies escaped to their walled cities, he would have to conquer them one by one, a process that would cost him time and men. So, he offered a shamelessly audacious prayer. He asked God to make the sun stand still.And, amazingly, God did. Given the extra daylight, the Israelite victory became complete, and the door to southern Canaan was pushed wide open.How this miracle happened, I don't know. But one thing I do know is that if you grant me God, ANYTHING is possible!If you have the audacity to ask, God has the ability to respond.We all face difficult situations that appear to be impossible. It may be financial, emotional, relational, or physical. Whatever it is, God is bigger, and if God is with you in that thing, there is still hope.If the size of your need is too big for you, it's just the right size for God. Prayer is what moved the hand of God. Prayer was what won the battle. But often we don't see God move like He could or may want to, because we don't ask. (Jms. 4:2) Maybe we don't ask because we're afraid of being disappointed. Or we don't think we matter enough to God to ask big. We can ask for small stuff, but the really big stuff? Yet your prayers matter more than we could ever imagine! And through those prayers, the impossible can happen.God can do more in a moment in time than I can do in a lifetime of effort. Prayer doesn't take the place of action. Joshua still had to fight! But because he prayed first, God moved. While we have every right to pray “sun, stand still” prayers, there are times that the answer isn't what we'd hoped for. God is not some cosmic genie, and prayer is not some lamp that we can rub to get our three wishes.He is still sovereign, and He still has the last word, and that word may be “no” or “not yet.”Even if the sun doesn't stand still in your situation, the sun can stand still through your situation.God can use your faith and persistence for His glory every bit as much as a miracle.Text: Joshua 10Originally recorded on October 23, 2016, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Schwanke begins by describing how we can shape cattle personalities through handling and management and adapting our strategies to accommodate different personality traits so as to not cause undue stress. Personality traits are consistent across time and context, which is nuanced by the other animals in a particular group. There are five generally recognized personality traits: boldness, exploration, activity, sociability and aggressiveness. Some debate exists as to whether dominance should be considered a sixth trait or if it's just an outcome of the other five. (5:43)Dr. Schwanke's research focused mainly on how cows react to specific stressors, such as adapting to an automated milking system. In a robotic system, cows who are more independent, explorative and bold are more likely to do well. Some diversity is good because it can help to minimize long-term antagonistic interactions in a group. If we have cows that are very similar to each other, it will take longer for them to establish a social hierarchy. (10:05)The panel discusses where the research is in regard to on-farm applicability and potential genetic components of personality traits. In the future, Dr. Schwanke envisions automated assessments of cow personality through computer vision cameras in the barn, fed into an algorithm that creates a personality ranking of cows based on their behaviors. She also notes personality traits can help predict a cow's coping style: proactive, reactive and intermediate. Proactive cows are more bold, explorative and aggressive. They thrive in predictable, stable conditions. Reactive cows are more fearful, less active and less dominant. They typically do better than proactive cows in unpredictable or changing environments because they're better able to modify their behavior to the environment they find themselves in. (14:09)The panel talks about future research goals in this area, including transition to automated milking systems, modifying feed management for behavioral and nutritional requirements and impacts of commingling stress. The guests also explore behavioral research in calves and brainstorm about future research with this age group, as well as talk about potential implications of making the wrong selection decisions for personality traits. (20:08)Are there things dairy producers could do to condition calves to be more adaptable to an automated milking system later in life? If a calf is reared in an automated feeding system, do they adapt to an automated milking system more easily? We don't have the research yet to answer these questions, but they're great questions. The panel also talks about how to scale up personality trait information to large herds, how precision feeding systems and personality traits might interact and how machine learning and computer vision technology can automate personality trait assessments. (28:46)Panelists share their take-home thoughts. (35:02)Please subscribe and share with your industry friends to invite more people to join us at the Real Science Exchange virtual pub table.

This event is going to be a coming home to yourself, AND a lot of fun. xoJill We are getting so close to the upcoming BE YOU event celebrating five years and 300 episodes of the podcast, and this week, Jill is providing listeners with some important details - both reminders and updates - about the event. She stresses that while this episode is primarily for listeners who are definitely going to the event, everyone else is invited to listen as well in case you're on the fence about whether or not you want to go and/or just want an idea of the energy and atmosphere that will be experienced at the event. Jill encourages listeners to find ways to seek out the same sense of authenticity, connection, and support that will be present at the event, whether it be through creating your own gatherings or your own social circles, and she stresses that the event is about dropping masks, letting go of competition and comparison, and simply being yourself! For those who are attending the event, listen in as Jill provides some helpful details, from the event schedule to the dress code (which is essentially no dress code at all). She promises attendees that the event is designed to make them feel safe, seen, and held, without any pressure for vulnerability or deep work beyond what they are comfortable with. She also shares her vision for the event, a place where women can simply be themselves without feeling a need to perform or impress. Ultimately, Jill invites listeners to fully embrace the opportunity, whether attending the event or finding ways to create a similar experience in your own lives, and she passionately encourages an attitude of openness, surrender, and trust in the process as she promises that the event will be a transformative and literally unique experience! Jill spends some time this week reflecting on some of the lessons that she has been learning as she plans her upcoming event celebrating 300 episodes of the podcast! She gets into the personal growth that she has experienced via planning this event, acknowledging her tendency to take on too much responsibility and do everything herself, even though this often leads to burnout and resentment. However, after realizing that she was slipping back into this pattern as she planned the event, Jill had an epiphany - the true lesson was not about her own limitations but about fully surrendering and trusting that the universe will provide what is needed, so rather than trying to force herself to sell every single ticket, Jill has decided to let go and allow the seats to fill organically. She declares that there will be 200 women in that room, and she is going to "dance, breathe, sound bathe" her way to that outcome, rather than grinding and hustling. Jill also shares that this event is not just for the attendees but is also a gift to herself, acknowledging that she has often put others' needs before her own. She invites listeners who may also struggle with holding too much responsibility to reflect on their own patterns, and consider how they can let go and allow the universe to support them! Enjoy this vulnerable and insightful reflection from Jill this week as we get closer and closer to the big event! Show Notes: [1:29] - Jill encourages even those not attending the upcoming event to seek out authentic community.

In this week's message, Pastor Khalid explores the effects of secondhand trauma—how the consequences of someone else's calling, commitment, or choices can deeply affect us as bystanders. Using Judges 6:1–18, he reminds us that even when we're impacted by the struggles of others, God still has a story and purpose unfolding through it all.#TraumatizedSeries #RedemptionChurchFW #PastorKhalid #FaithHealing #ChristianGrowth #Judges6 #SecondhandTrauma #SpiritualHealing #ChurchOnlineSupport the show

If there's one lesson to learn from today's message, it's this: As freely as God's blessing is given to those who obey, it can be removed from those who disobey.After Israel's miraculous victory at Jericho, the next strategic target for Joshua's conquest of the land was the city of Ai. Its small size should have made it an easy win. Instead, Israel was defeated, leaving Joshua and his people angry, ashamed, and confused. Before we move on with this story, a little flashback is necessary. When God gave Joshua His strategy for taking Jericho, He gave strict instructions for the utter destruction of all the inhabitants of Jericho and the total surrender to the Lord of all the valuable objects found there: silver, gold, bronze, and iron. This “ban” was clearly communicated, but apparently, one man and his family didn't think God was serious. After their defeat, Joshua fell facedown before the Lord, pouring out his heart, trying to understand what went wrong. Finally, God told him to stand up and call the people together. There was sin in the camp.Following the Lord's orders, Joshua had the tribes come forward, one by one, until Judah was chosen. Then Judah came forward by clans, then by families, and then man by man until one man was chosen. Achan. Joshua beseeched him, “Tell me what you have done; don't hide it.” Achan confessed. He had taken silver, gold, and valuable things and buried them beneath his tent. When the contraband was found, Joshua took Achan and all his family and all he owned and had them stoned and then burned. Hidden sin is no small matter to God. We dare not let the Evil One's lies or our own rationalization cause us to downplay sin. We need to call sin what God calls it.Hidden sin is seen by God. Nothing is hidden from God.Hidden sin removes God's hand of blessing. As a wise parent, God cannot and will not reward rebellion. Proverbs 28:13 says, “Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper…”Hidden sin will eventually be exposed. Hebrews 4:13 puts it plainly: “Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.”But there is hope. Hidden sin can be forgiven. Proverbs 28:13 started by warning us, “Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper…” But it continues, “but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.”To confess is to say the same thing about your sin that God does. “It's wrong…and I've been wrong.” To renounce or to repent is to have a change of mind and make a change of action. “I'm so sorry and I'm going to stop doing that.” And to receive forgiveness is to believe Jesus paid the penalty. His grace is enough, even for that. Text: Joshua 7Originally recorded on September 25, 2016, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN
The 10 Commandments are a true guide for believers in living according to God's will as people redeemed by Christ. Luther warns against “self-made” commandments and instead uplifts the holiness of ordinary vocations. To fear and love God means more than awe or dread—it is recognizing that He is God and we are not! The Lord is a jealous God—One who desires all of us to be with Him. He provides us with the 10 Commandments to demonstrate that He has laid claim to us, both for our protection, and to teach us how to glorify His name in word and deed. Rev. John Pless, Assistant Professor of Pastoral Ministry and Mission, Concordia Theological Seminary, Fort Wayne, IN, joins Rev. Brady Finnern to discuss the Conclusion of the Ten Commandments in Luther's Large Catechism. To learn more about Concordia Theological Seminary, visit ctsfw.edu.

The story about how the walls of Jericho came “a-tumblin' down” is a favorite. But it's also the target of a great deal of skepticism. Today, we're going to look briefly at three of the most frequently asked questions related to the battle of Jericho, and then we'll seek to apply the events of that day to our day.1. Is Jericho a real historical site?Yes! In fact, Jericho is known as the oldest continually inhabited city on earth. Archeologists have uncovered artifacts that indicate a large city did exist in the late Bronze Age—the time of Joshua.2. Is it possible that such complete destruction could actually occur?Yes! Jericho is located in the Jordan Rift—one of our planet's most seismically vulnerable places. In addition, it was built on sandy soil. Likely, an earthquake occurred, causing the walls of the city to collapse. Then the Israelite armies could enter the city through the breaches in the walls.Suggesting an earthquake could have brought down the walls doesn't negate the miracle. That it happened exactly when and how God said it would is the miracle! 3. How can we reconcile God's order to kill all the city's inhabitants?This is a tough question, but that difficulty is eased some when one considers the sociological history of that region at that time.Historians have verified that Jericho's Canaanitish culture was unquestionably as perverse and corrupt as any in the history of our planet. Among other perversions, hideous forms of child abuse were rampant.In light of this, if the living God, as Great Physician, determines in the interest of the larger body of the human race to perform radical surgery, to eradicate the cancer of a culture so corrupt that it can only corrupt and destroy others, then are not His actions indeed loving and just? They had ample time to repent. Rahab did and was saved! But they refused, and judgment fell.HIS CITY—YOUR CITY—OUR CITYWith that groundwork, let's consider Joshua's city (Jericho), your personal city, and our city—the place we live. When God gave Joshua instructions for taking Jericho, He commanded them to use trumpets, not drums, like armies typically would. Drums are a function of hands. Trumpets are a function of breath—ruach—spirit. Breath that offers praise.The Lord was underscoring to His people that the impossible walls they were facing would not come down through human effort, but through divine power that flowed out of obedience and praise. So, for six days, they walked around the city, following God's strategy for city-taking. They walked in unity. They walked and worshiped. Then, when told to, they shouted. And the walls fell. Just as worship played a role in overcoming Joshua's city, it is powerful in facing the walls in our lives.Worship is not only glorifying to God, but it is debilitating to the forces of evil. We all have walls, things that defy forward movement. Those walls could be blockaded relationships, crippling emotional issues, painful physical maladies, unbreakable habits, or chronic financial challenges. Could it be that the strategy for your city-taking is the same as it was for Joshua? That God is calling you to walk in faith, praising Him even before you see the walls come down? What about in our city, the place we live? How do we begin to see the walls come down so God's Kingdom can break through?What if we borrowed Joshua's strategy for our city? Walk your neighborhoods and worship. Walk and pray—for schools, for neighbors, for streets. Who knows what might happen if we did?

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! Step inside The Bell Mansion, one of Fort Wayne, Indiana's most historic — and most haunted — landmarks. Built in 1893 by state senator and attorney Robert Bell and his wife Clara, the Romanesque-style mansion was once a symbol of culture and prosperity. Clara co-founded the Fort Wayne Museum of Art, and the Bells were pillars of the community. But after the family sold the home to William K. Nobel, its story took a chilling turn. For 93 years, the house served as the Klaehn Funeral Home, where it's believed 300,000 to 500,000 bodies passed through its doors. Many say countless spirits linger there to this day — and some believe Robert and Clara Bell never left. Now a popular haunted venue, the mansion has become a hub for paranormal investigators and history buffs alike. In this episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with event coordinator Lindsay Crouch to hear firsthand accounts of the building's ghostly residents, unexplained voices, and the residual energy of decades of mourning. Is the Bell Mansion haunted by its funeral home past, or are the Bells themselves still keeping watch? This is Part Two of our conversation.

Listen to interviews with the cast, producers and musicians behind “Cabaret Latino - Songs of the Americas”, including Tom Alvarez, Eva Luna Espay, Eric Salazar, Pablo Gonzalez, Alexis Faviel and Dustin Klein. “Cabaret Latino” is a bilingual revue of songs celebrating the music of Latin America, from boleros to reggaeton. The show was created and directed by Tom Alvarez, a trailblazing figure in Indiana media and arts. His multifaceted career includes work in television, theatre, journalism, podcasting, and community arts advocacy. Born in Fort Wayne, Alvarez first made waves in the 1970s, when he became the first Latino broadcaster on Indianapolis television. In recent years, Alvarez has gained notoriety as a producer of musical theatre and cabaret.
This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Firkins' presentation covers key aspects of how to improve digestibility of different diet components: fiber, starch, fat and total diet. (4:31)The negative relationship between starch in the diet and fiber digestion has been well known for more than 50 years. A recent meta-analysis showed the depression in fiber digestibility starts at very low starch concentrations. Dr. Weiss points out this can't be due to low rumen pH at that starch level. Dr. Firkins agrees pH is probably only about half of the relationship and the other half is factors called the carbohydrate effect. He goes on to say adequate ammonia and amino acids are necessary for the fibrolytic bacteria in the rumen to maximize fiber digestibility, and urea alone is not adequate. The panel agrees there is little knowledge about what exactly the amino acid requirements of fibrolytic bacteria are or should be. (6:05)Dr. Firkins shares some of his findings regarding how sugars impact fiber digestibility. Dr. Krogstad notes grain particle size can have key impacts on fiber digestibility and the panel discusses some of the challenges in nailing down optimal particle size. (13:39)Dr. Weiss indicates diets should be formulated for rumen degradable starch - but how do we get that number? Dr. Firkins explains some of the difficulty in making accurate, cohesive predictions. The panel discusses some field measures that may be helpful. (18:24)Ruminants have lower fat digestibility than monogastrics. The panel explores biological factors that might be limiting fat digestibility. Dr. Firkins believes palmitic and oleic acids probably help the microbes and that is why we see improved diet digestibility when those fatty acids are supplemented. He encourages further exploration into the reason behind this and the mechanism by which it occurs. Dr. Krogstad mentions a Utah State study that also saw improved diet digestibility and also evaluated microbial fractions and phospholipids. (22:44)The panel explores the relationship between rumen-degradable protein and fiber digestibility. What happens when RDP is too high or too low? What is the optimal level of RDP to maximize digestibility? How does the composition of the base diet influence how much RDP you might need? What role do peptides play in the rumen? (29:00)Panelists share their take-home thoughts. (41:52)Please subscribe and share with your industry friends to invite more people to join us at the Real Science Exchange virtual pub table.

This event is going to be a coming home to yourself, AND a lot of fun. xoJill Join Jill this week as she discusses the upcoming Be YOU event called "Be You Live" which is celebrating its five-year anniversary and 300th episode! Jill acknowledges that this event may not be for everyone, as our nervous systems can sometimes try to prevent us from doing things that will expand and challenge us, but she encourages listeners to truly listen to their intuition to determine if this event is right for them in spite of any doubts or excuses their mind may come up with. Jill also spends time this episode discussing her perspective on true friendship, describing the type of deep, authentic friendships that she has built upon – ones in which there is radical honesty, vulnerability, and a willingness to challenge each other to grow – and she contrasts this with more surface-level friendships that avoid difficult conversations. Jill shares her own experience of having to have a "clearing conversation" with someone she cares about but ultimately having realized that they were not meant to be close friends. She highlights the importance of shedding relationships that no longer serve us but doing so with self-compassion rather than judgment. Jill ultimately encourages listeners to reflect on the quality of your own friendships and your relationships with yourselves, suggesting journaling, self-reflection, and allowing yourselves to fully feel emotions as ways to pave the way for the type of meaningful connections she talks about in this episode, believing that when we can be that kind of friend to ourselves, we will attract those kinds of friendships with others! Show Notes: [01:31] - Jill is urging listeners to overcome fear that's preventing growth and attend the upcoming Be YOU event! [04:35] - She challenges the idea that self-sacrifice is noble and insists that true belonging comes from being yourself. [07:20] - Real friendships mirror growth and honesty and first require self-acceptance. [10:04] - Jill teaches compassion toward yourself, and she notes how friendships reflect inner healing and might naturally dissolve. [13:12] - Jill accepts that not all connections align, affirming her high standards. [15:43] - Jill values friendships with honesty and sincere feedback. [18:25] - True friendships, Jill insists, honor authenticity and the highest self, not old wounds from childhood trauma.

In Part 10 of our Traumatized series, I Have What I Need (1 Corinthians 12), Pastor Khalid reminds us that God has equipped each believer with spiritual gifts for His glory. Too often, we become traumatized by criticism for not having certain gifts, by coveting the gifts and outcomes of others, or by comparing ourselves to those around us. This message calls us back to confidence in Christ — knowing that we already have what we need in Him.#TraumatizedSeries #RedemptionChurchFW #SpiritualGifts #BibleTeaching #ChristianLiving Support the show

You would think that after miraculously parting the torrent of the flooded Jordan River, bringing fear to their enemies, God would have said to Joshua, “Now, go! Strike hard and fast while you have the momentum!” But He didn't. God brought everything to a screeching halt when He gave Joshua this command: Circumcise all the men and boys.This seemed to make no sense. Not only did it go against military logic, but it also left their fighting forces physically vulnerable for days as they recovered. But Joshua obeyed anyway.For the 40 years the Israelites had wandered in the wilderness, the people had failed to circumcise the boys born into their families. That faithless generation died along the way, and the generation that now stands on the threshold of their future is the uncircumcised.Why was it such a big deal to God that the men be circumcised?Since the days of Abraham, circumcision had been a sign of the Israelites' identity. It was to be a constant reminder of God's covenant with them and a supreme symbol of their loyalty to Yahweh. He offers His provision and protection to all who will enter into this covenant with Him. Unless and until this generation of Israelites were willing to embrace the covenant, they would be trying to take the land in their own strength. But once they DID embrace that covenant, the Lord God Almighty was bound by that covenant to bring His power to bear.God called his people to mark out their identity through circumcision—the most basic and most intimate of ways. That reminder resulted in several things.It emboldened them. Every day as a man dressed, he was reminded, “I am in covenant with God. God is for me; I will not be afraid.” It assured them. With every act of procreation, they were reminded that not only were they God's people, but their children were too. They were part of a multi-generational movement. It admonished them. When tempted to compromise sexually, it was a visible admonishment to live God's way.In the New Testament, Paul draws a parallel between circumcision and baptism. For the believer in Jesus, baptism is a symbol of the Christian's identity. If you are in covenant with God through your faith in Christ, you can have confidence in your future. God has committed Himself to bringing His protection, His provision, and His power to bear upon your life.

This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Boerman notes we know cows experience a negative metabolizable protein balance in early lactation, which means they're mobilizing skeletal muscle to make up for that. Dr. Boerman and her group have been interested in strategies to measure how much muscle they're mobilizing, when they're losing it and when they gain it back. (3:51)Cows are ultrasounded during the dry period to determine longissimus dorsi muscle reserves, then divided into low vs high muscle groups. Weekly ultrasounds follow them through lactation. Animals with high muscle reserves during the dry period mobilized muscle before calving, which resulted in increased calf birth weights. Animals with less muscle during the dry period can gain muscle during that time and have more muscle reserves at calving than they had in the middle of the dry period. Dr. Boerman discusses possible nutrition interventions to manage muscle depletion and accretion, as well as timing of muscle loss and gain. (5:14)The panel discusses how cows were assigned to high- and low-muscle groups and how representative those groups might be to the general population of dairy cows. Dr. Boerman mentions they've recently started evaluating primiparous cows as well to see if they perform differently than multiparous cows. (10:33)Dr. Boerman notes that cows are mobilizing between 30 and 35% of their longissimus dorsi depth during lactation and muscle biopsies have shown a reduction in muscle fiber size. They also measure 3-methyl histidine and creatinine as biomarkers of muscle loss and gain. The panel discusses increased calf birth weights and impacts on colostrum for high-muscle groups. Body condition score is not a good predictor of muscle depth. (16:52)The group discusses how parity might impact protein loss and gain, the influence of genetics on these muscle measurements, how health events might affect muscle mobilization and what kind of hormonal regulation might be occurring to control muscle losses and gains. (23:41)Dr. Weiss shares about a project from his group where muscle and fat losses were measured by dilution. They fed 20% protein diets using soy alone or with supplementation of rumen-protected amino acids. He emphasized the differences between heifers and cows, similar to what Dr. Boerman's group has observed as well. (29:54)Dr. Boerman shares some ideas of what kind of experiments she'd like to conduct next to continue this line of research. (33:42)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

In this episode of the 401(k) Specialist Podcast, we dive into the complex world of Market Value Adjustments (MVAs)—what they are, when they're triggered, how they're calculated, and why they matter.Bill McLaren, Stable Value Business Leader for the Retirement Plan Services Business at Lincoln Financial, joins us to explain why MVAs can catch plan sponsors off guard—especially during a recordkeeper change—and what advisors can do to protect participants.Find out more about stable value investment only solutions.Key InsightsMVAs Can Surprise Plan SponsorsMarket Value Adjustments (MVAs) in stable value funds are often overlooked by plan sponsors, particularly during recordkeeper transitions. Many focus on crediting rates and fail to understand termination conditions, only discovering the financial implications when a move results in receiving less than the book value of their investments.Mitigating MVA Risks Requires PreparationPlan sponsors can mitigate MVAs through proper due diligence and understanding the specific stable value contract provisions. Options such as the “12-month put” guarantee full book value payout with proper notice. Sponsors should know whether their fund is portable and consult advisors early to avoid costly surprises.Three Strategies to Address Negative MVAsWhen faced with a negative MVA, sponsors have three main options:Partner with a stable value provider who can absorb the MVA and preserve participant account balances—ensuring a seamless transition between providers without financial harm.Pay the difference themselves (rare).Pass the loss to participants (unpopular and risky).SEE ALSO:• Stable Value Funds: Balancing Safety and Opportunity with Lincoln Financial's Matt CondosThe views expressed are those of the speaker/writer and not necessarily those of any Lincoln Financial® affiliate.

She wasn't anyone's first pick for a hero, but God had other ideas. She showed a courageous faith that changed her life—and history—forever.Her name was Rahab, a disreputable woman from the pagan Canaanite city of Jericho. The word the Bible uses to describe her is zonah: prostitute, harlot. There's no way to sanitize it.Yet Rahab had come to a point of faith in Israel's God, Yahweh. She had heard the stories of the miraculous ways God had given victory to His people, so when she heard that the Israelite army was breathing down Jericho's neck, her faith moved her to act with courage.Israel's commander, Joshua, had sent two spies into the city of Jericho. When the king of Jericho heard about the two strangers who had entered the city and that they had gone to the hostel run by Rahab, he sent a message commanding her to turn the spies over to him. But Rahab hid the spies and sent a message back to the king, saying that the men had already left. Once the pursuers left Jericho, the gates to the city were closed. Rahab went to the spies where they were hiding and begged for her life. “Please swear to me that you will spare my life and the lives of my family when you attack the city.”The men agreed, with one caveat. She must gather her family into her house and hang a scarlet cord from the window to identify her house. Rahab then let the men down by a rope through the window, for her house was built into the city wall, and they safely returned to the Israelite camp.When the time came for the battle of Jericho, there on the city wall was a scarlet cord hanging from the window. Rahab and her family were spared, and Rahab lived among the Israelites for the rest of her life.Rahab's story teaches us some wonderful lessons.1. Though God's righteousness demands that evil must be judged, His love demands that He looks to offer mercy. 2 Peter 3:9 says, “God does not want anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.” 2. God is looking for any who might be seeking Him and will pull out all the stops to make their salvation possible.Could it be that God had Joshua send those spies, just for Rahab?God is ready, willing, and able to reach out to those who are seeking Him. He is using creation, conscience, and Christ to prompt them by His Spirit. But…3. God uses His people to help spiritual seekers take the necessary next steps. At the top of this message, I mentioned that Rahab's courageous faith changed history. In the first chapter of Matthew, we find the genealogy of Joseph, husband of Mary. Believe it or not, Rahab was the great-grandmother of King David. Not only that, the shady lady of Jericho is listed in the ancestral line of Jesus, the Messiah.

This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference.Dr. Carpenter gives an overview of her presentation. She summarizes an Extension risk management project regarding heifer development, assisting dairies in benchmarking their heifer growth and development. Key focus points include reducing morbidity and mortality and timely breeding to achieve goals for age at first calving. Dr. Carpenter also emphasized heat detection and conception, as well as recordkeeping as important considerations for success. (4:10)Dr. Carpenter shares findings from a beef-on-dairy feeding experiment where any calf that had two or more lifetime respiratory events had lower carcass weight and lower return on investment. The panel discusses industry uptake of using lung ultrasounds to evaluate respiratory events. (11:53)Guests talk about different feeding concepts in heifer development and trends in age at first calving over time. (14:31)The panel dives into home-raising versus custom-developing heifers. Dr. Carpenter notes Penn State has great resources regarding custom rearing of dairy heifers. Pros and cons of both systems are discussed, and the panel also touches on rearing of beef-on-dairy calves as well. (19:17)The group returns to the topic of age at first calving. Reducing variation at age at breeding is important, and producers should consult with their nutritionists and veterinarians for a team approach to success. (24:44)Dr. Carpenter and Dr. Tebbe talk about how producers are dealing with replacement heifer shortages. (27:24)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.

Jill is so excited but also feeling the pressure of planning this large event on her own, and she shares that she's learned some valuable lessons, such as how it's okay to jump in even if you haven't spent much time in the "kiddie pool" before. Jill is asking for help from her listeners, inviting a select group of her most dedicated podcast fans to a special birthday celebration dinner for the 5-year anniversary of the Be You podcast. To be considered, listeners should email Jill and share the impact the podcast has had on them. She is asking listeners to record a short video talking about how the podcast has made a difference, which she plans to use at the event and for other promotions. The event itself promises to be an expansive experience, not a deep transformational one. Jill states that attendees will be beautifully reminded of not just who you are, but how freaking amazing you really are, and topics will include people-pleasing, perfectionism, comparison, and the connection between our inner selves and our leadership/work lives. While Jill highlights the fact that this event is not a necessity, it is an opportunity for those who feel called to it, and she encourages listeners to say yes to themselves and invest in their own growth while also honoring that the decision is a personal one without pressure!
