Mayor Mark Shepherd Clearfield City, UT Mark Shepherd was born in Salt Lake City but grew up in Albuquerque, NM. He has lived in Clearfield for the past 23 years. Mark's ‘non-political' life includes being the Principal Broker for the Shepherd Real Estate Group, a local, independent real estate brokerage which he founded in 2018. His business focuses primarily on military relocation, both to and from Utah. Mark served nearly 9 years on the Clearfield Planning Commission before being elected to the City Council in 2007. After 6 years on the Council, Mark was elected as Clearfield City's Mayor in 2013 and is now in his second term in that position. Mark has served as an Honorary Commander for the 388th MXG for three years and is presently serving as the Honorary Commander for the 466th FS. He was appointed by Utah's Governor to serve on the Military Installation Development Authority (MIDA) which has responsibility for development of Enhanced Use Lease (EUL) properties throughout Utah. He serves on the Utah Defense Alliance and on the Board of Directors for the local Air Force Association chapter. He served for two years as the Chairman of the Military Communities Council for the National League of Cities, and now serves as the Vice-Chair for the Finance, Administration and Inter-governmental Affairs (FAIR) committee. Mark has been married to his wife Tammie for the past 31 years. They are the parents of seven children and three grandchildren. In his “spare” time, Mark will likely be found at a Real Salt Lake soccer game, searching for his ball at one of the local golf courses or at the gun range practicing his aim. Whichever activity that day might bring, you will almost always find one of his children by his side.

Prof. Nils Hafner (Hochschule Luzern) und Knut Besold (KPMG) über Banken und Versicherer als Problemlöser, Markenerlebnisse und virtuelle WeltenKundenmanagement, Customer Relationship Management, Kundenzentrierung oder Customer Experience Management: Mit verschiedenen Begriffen ist in den vergangenen Jahren das Bemühen von Unternehmen beschrieben worden, im digitalen Zeitalter echte Nähe zu ihren Kundinnen und Kunden herzustellen.Prof. Dr. Nils Hafner erforscht dieses Feld seit 25 Jahren, und das speziell mit Blick auf die Finanzindustrie. Er findet: Banken und Versicherungen teilen natürlich Compliance-Anforderungen, die andere Branchen nicht unbedingt haben. Davon sollten sie sich in der Kundenansprache und -kommunikation aber nicht so einschüchtern lassen, wie sie es nach seiner Beobachtung oft tun. Seine Empfehlung: die klare Ausrichtung auf die Aufgabe des Problemlösers, die Kunden in Finanzunternehmen sehen. Im Gespräch mit Knut Besold (KPMG) geht es Relevanz, um Themen und Touchpoints. Beide sind sich einig: Die eine Patentlösung für alle Unternehmen gibt es nicht – aber als Leitfrage sollte für alle im Mittelpunkt stehen: Wie gestalte ich eine gute und sinnvolle Beziehung zum Kunden?Im Talk erwähnt werden:Die Customer Experience Excellence Studie von KPMG: https://hub.kpmg.de/de/customer-experience-excellence-2024 Die Corporate Influencer Studie von KPMG: https://hub.kpmg.de/de/das-potenzial-von-influencern-fuer-die-finanzbranche-nutzen?utm_campaign=15399428-FS%20-%20Das%20Potenzial%20von%20Influencern&utm_source=aem Der CEX Trendradar von Nils Hafner und Harald Henn: https://cex-trendradar.com/ Jetzt die Folge #49 unseres Podcasts „KPMG on air Financial Services” hören und mehr erfahren.

Wesley Crook (CEO, FP Block) has been shipping hard tech since 1985 and rescuing Web3 builds for years. His team audited Cardano early, served as the public auditor for Hedera for 7 years, and has delivered 110+ projects: L1s, oracles, DeFi, games, and more. We dig into why ~70% of FP Block's work is “rescues,” what enterprise-grade really means (security, throughput, reliability), why many teams pick the wrong chain, and how FP Block's chain-agnostic framework Kolme lets founders treat the application as the blockchain—then bridge anywhere.

Send us a textTerry Tucker's life story reads like an action movie with an unexpected spiritual twist. From college basketball player to SWAT hostage negotiator to a 13-year battle with cancer that doctors initially gave him just two years to survive, Terry has transformed each challenge into an opportunity for growth and service.When faced with a terminal diagnosis, Terry asked himself a profound question: "How can I turn this death sentence into a life sentence?" His answer led him to discover purpose in pain and meaning in misery. Despite losing his foot in 2018 and his leg in 2020 to cancer, Terry radiates an infectious optimism that challenges conventional wisdom about suffering. As he shares with disarming honesty, "I've done more living in the 13 years that I've been dying of cancer than I've done in my entire life."The wisdom Terry has gathered along his journey forms the foundation of his book "Sustainable Excellence," where he outlines ten principles for leading an extraordinary life. Among these, one stands out as particularly transformative: "Most people think with their fears and insecurities instead of using their minds." This insight has powerful implications for anyone feeling stuck or afraid to pursue their deepest aspirations.Terry's approach to adversity is built on what he calls his "three Fs" – faith, family, and friends. His spiritual journey has evolved through his health battles, creating a relationship with God that accommodates both gratitude and frustration, trust and questioning. This authentic spirituality provides a framework for finding purpose even in the most challenging circumstances.Whether you're facing health challenges, professional setbacks, or simply seeking greater meaning in your life, Terry's message reminds us that our limits are often self-imposed. As he illustrates through a fascinating story about rats treading water, hope and belief can extend our endurance far beyond what we think possible.

Fred Earnest, President and CEO of Vista Gold Corp. (NYSE American and TSX: VGZ), joins us for comprehensive update on the revised Resource Estimate, and the new optimized Feasibility Study announced July 29th at their Mt Todd Gold Project. Mt Todd is a ready-to-build development-stage gold deposit located in the Tier-1 mining jurisdiction of Northern Territory, Australia. Fred reviews the 10.6 million ounces of gold resources in all categories, and the infrastructure and jurisdiction advantages to the working in this area of Australia. We then shifted over to lower capex and key efficiencies outline in the updated 2025 Feasibility Study (“2025 FS”). This new 2025 FS provides a favorable development alternative to Vista's previous feasibility study completed in 2024 at 50,000 tpd, as it now envisions a 15,000 tonnes per day (“tpd”) mining scenario. This smaller initial project has a much lower capex, and prioritizes higher grade ore being sent to the processing plant, significantly reducing development capital required and operational risks. FEASIBILITY STUDY HIGHLIGHTS Average annual gold production of 153,000 ounces during years 1-15 and 146,000 over the 30-year life of mine Average ore grade of 1.04 grams gold per tonne (“g Au/t”) over the first 15 years of operations and 0.97 g Au/t over the life of mine Life of mine average gold recovery of 88.5% from 3-stage crush, single-stage sort, 2-stage grind, and carbon-in-leach (“CIL”) recovery circuit Contract mining and third-party power generation reduce capital costs and operational risks Future expansion opportunities not evaluated in the Study, but considered in designs and layouts ROBUST PROJECT ECONOMICS After-tax NPV5% of $1.1 billion, IRR of 27.8% and 2.7 year payback at a $2,500 per ounce gold price After-tax NPV5% of $2.2 billion, IRR of 44.7% and 1.7 year payback at spot gold price ($3,300 per ounce) After-tax free cash flow at a $2,500 gold price of $1.6 billion for first 15 years of commercial operations Initial capital requirements of $425 million, a 59% reduction from the 2024 FS Capital Efficiency: $93 per ounce (initial capital : total ounces of gold produced) All-in Sustaining Cost of $1,449 per oz years 1-15 and $1,499 per oz years 1-30 If you have questions for Fred regarding Vista Gold, then please email those into us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.

Noncon and Big Ten: The Bottom Four Starts at 0:54 New Mexico. Former Wisconsin player who was at Idaho takes over, brings the QB and the DE who gave Oregon problems last year. Keegan Johnson used to play at Iowa. Oklahoma. Spiderman pointing game. Their defense was great and their offense just as terrible. Mateer the savior doesn't have WRs and his OL is highly recruited and young. They spent a lot for Damonic Williams at DT, have a great FS and iffy corners. Punting and arm-punting is winning? CMU. New coach is the former Army OL coach, interesting dude who sends his coaches home at 5pm, got all local coaches because he wants to be there a long time. Got an Iowa QB. #18: Purdue. Odom: Why? Team was falling apart already under Walters and got gutted. Multi-year rebuild. #17: Maryland. Walking Locksley to the gallows season. Inexplicable receiver depth is gone. Jalen Husky (from Bowling Green) and secondary is the relative strength of the defense. How much will Maryland seriously try to compete in this sport or just throw their House money at basketball? #16: Northwestern. The2021 running backs are still there. Caleb Tiernan how do you not come home? Edges Hubbard and Anto Saka (getting draft hype) are good. Dillon Tatum late transfer followed Harlon Barnett. Receivers are gone though. #15: UCLA. Encouraging second half last year, new belief in Deshawn Foster. But they're back to rebuilding from the portal, look like they have to do that every year. Only 2/15 players with 200+ snaps returned. Did get Nico Iamaleava. They have some access to money, but where's it going? Jalen Berger is their RB! [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP] 2. The Big Ten Middle Starts at 34:54 #14: MSU. Defense takes a step back, offense takes a step forward, Aidan Chiles could be a budding star. Jonathan Smith probably didn't understand what kind of fanbase he's walking into. #13: Wisconsin. Is this the last hurrah of Fickell? They dumped the spread and their best player is a huge RT so that's good; their defense is kind of falling apart so that's bad. #12: Rutgers. Schiano has done it: Rutgers is a perennial bowl team! No more Monangai but plenty of parts are back, especially on the OL. #11: Minnesota. High-variance offense, Koi Perich is an All-American. If a few of the transfers hit it's a strong defense. Could win 10 games vs a bad schedule, could also be just fighting for a bowl. #10: Nebraska. Raiola year 2 has a lot of weapons. They really spent to get him some WRs, Dane Key and a contested catch guy from Cal. Still going to be a 3-3-5 but playing tiny. The problem is their DL coach left and took the DL with him. #9: Washington. Only Big Ten RB to return, really like them. Also got back Boston. Upgraded from Stephen Belichick to Ryan Walters at DC, have a dual-threat QB who took over last year. Opposite Michigan: no kicker, weak in the trenches. #8: Iowa. Mid! Offense improved quite a bit under Tim Lester, rose to 69th in SP+, had fewer wins because that's not Iowa. "We have a quarterback now!" /runs a waggle. #7: Indiana. Cignetti is tough to play for but he was able to rebuild through the portal again with guys who don't have to get to know Cignetti, including a new QB who might be pretty good. 3. The Contenders Starts at 1:10:38 #6: Illinois. Brian is wearing an Illinois shirt after a 10-2 season that was really lucky. Lose their playmakers from a team that was really lucky last year and did most of their work. Paid all these guys to return because they have a very weak schedule. Circle Illinois-Indiana. #5: USC. Ewebwuddy Woves Waymond. Scott Frost season where they lost to Maryland, banking on a massive, sorta overrated 2026 class. Have their choice receivers, have their QB in Maiava, have a magic wand to turn their secondary into poop. (#4 is Michigan) #3: Oregon. Dan Lanning is our top coach in the league but in-game management in Rose Bowl scares us. Doesn't lose bad games. Will be some talent drop-off, do we trust Dante Moore? He's had a year in the program and they didn't import someone. Probably spent the most of anybody in the portal. Bear Alexander at DT is a reason to doubt them; this team has a big potential to come together or completely fall apart with locker room issues. Easy schedule: Play two OSUs but not THAT OSU. #2: Ohio State. Have the best player on offense (Jeremiah Smith) and the best player on defense (Caleb Downs) in the country, but do they have a quarterback? Their OL is kinda iffy, but the LT situation looks like a hit, and then two transfers are battling for RT. Run game is meh, trust the pass game. People underrating how much they lost on the DL, but we like Beau Atkinson pickup. LB and secondary have a ton of talent: Sonny Styles and Igbinosun are back. S&P+ #1 because there's talent everywhere. If you're looking for reasons to hate on Ohio State: Matt Patricia is there to ruin their defense. #1: Penn State. Drew Allar started very low in our eyes, has improved to okay or mid, and then had a great bowl game. RBs can run in a straight line. TE lost Warren. Receiver is a little iffy, but best OL in Franklin's tenure (not saying much). Kotelnicki is a factor in the offense though. Reasons they're not overrated: defense is filled with talent and experience. Think national pundits see last year, see Big Ten teams that returned their quarterbacks and a strong defense won the last two national championships. 4. Hot Takes & Lightning Round Starts at 1:49:41 Takes hotter than this summer. At seven hours of podcasting we are getting loopy but we still answer most important, breakout players, biggest x-factors, who's your dude, and final predictions.

In this deep-dive episode of The Forest School Podcast, Lewis and Wem are joined by Dr Jo Hume to explore the rich and expanding world of Forest School research. Starting with nettle seeds and caffeine journeys, the conversation quickly flows into Jo's unique academic path—from early years teaching to leading-edge post-humanist research. Together, they unpack how Forest School practice can be explored through alternative lenses: from non-linear time and place memory to intra-action, post-humanism, and the oft-missed agency of trees, mud, and materials. Dr Hume shares her ‘three Fs of Forest School,' talks about embodied research methods (including her embroidered GPS maps), and challenges listeners to think beyond human-centred perspectives. Whether you are an outdoor educator, curious academic, or passionate practitioner, this episode will expand your understanding of what makes Forest School profoundly different from other outdoor experiences—and why it truly stays with us even after we leave the woods.https://www.northumbria.ac.uk/about-us/our-staff/h/joanna-hume/⏱ Chapter Timings:00:00 – Nettle seeds, caffeine experiments, and energising toddler groups02:10 – Introducing Dr Jo Hume: early years teaching to academic research07:30 – Weekly woodland trips and the ripple effects on child independence13:45 – Bringing Forest School to teacher training: possibilities and limitations19:00 – The ‘three Fs of Forest School': frequency, familiarity, freedom24:15 – Forest School as an alternative life-thread: time, memory, and identity33:35 – Understanding post-humanism and intra-action in outdoor learning41:15 – Animism, tree relationships, and de-centring the human perspective50:00 – Creative research methods: embroidered maps and sensory entanglement58:30 – The future of Forest School research and Dr Hume's upcoming book

Something's not right in Todd's bean plot… In this episode, we hit the field to investigate why one of the soybean plots is looking rough while corn is thriving just yards away. From crusted soil to possible grub damage, we break down what went wrong — and whether it's worth replanting. Along the way, we take a tour of developing prairie habitat, check on screening corn from last season, and evaluate how other food plots are shaping up heading into summer. With expert advice from John from FS, we make the call: replant or let it ride?

Max Trescott welcomes aviation columnist, aerobatic instructor, and DPE Dr. Catherine Cavagnaro to explore smarter ways to plan cross-country flights. The conversation is inspired by Catherine's June 2025 AOPA article titled “The Benefits of Getting High,” which argues that pilots often default to lower cruising altitudes or direct GPS routes without considering efficiency or safety trade-offs.Catherine explains that pilots should dig into their aircraft's POH (Pilot's Operating Handbook) to find performance charts that highlight how altitude affects both time and fuel efficiency. For her Bonanza, she found that the highest true airspeed at 65% power occurred around 7,000 to 8,000 feet, but fuel efficiency kept improving all the way up to the service ceiling. Using a sample 650-NM trip, she shows that cruising at 12,000 feet—despite a longer climb—saved enough fuel to eliminate a fuel stop, making the total trip time shorter. They discuss how terrain, restricted airspace, and drop zones make GPS direct routing risky or impractical, especially across mountain ranges. Catherine shares how Victor airways, often dismissed as outdated, still provide safer terrain routing and proximity to emergency airports. Max adds real-world examples, including dangerous direct flights through the Sierra Nevada that ended in CFIT accidents. He outlines three major cross-country paths—northern, central (I-80 corridor), and southern—each with their own altitude and weather considerations. The two agree that pilots often forget how minor route deviations can vastly improve safety with negligible time penalties. Catherine uses a mathematical analogy involving railroad tracks expanding in the sun to illustrate how small vertical detours can stem from large lateral gains. They also dive into the importance of using supplemental oxygen—not just at legally required altitudes but even as low as 9,000 feet. Catherine explains how oxygen concentrators work, how they eliminate the need for tank refills, and how much better she feels after using them on long flights. Max echoes the sentiment, comparing it to the dramatic improvement that came with noise-canceling headsets. Together, they underscore how improved oxygenation can enhance alertness, decision-making, and post-flight fatigue levels. When it comes to safety, Catherine highlights the “5 Fs” checklist she uses for personal go/no-go decisions, emphasizing that fatigue is the hardest one to self-assess. She emphasizes building “outs” into every flight plan, from not booking hotels in advance to carrying backup airline tickets in case weather or fatigue prevent safe continuation. Max shares a similar experience of aborting a leg from Reno when he realized how exhausted he was just after takeoff. They also cover inflight considerations like maneuvering speed and turbulence. Catherine explains that because true airspeed rises with altitude while calibrated airspeed (which affects structural stress) stays lower, flying higher can reduce aircraft stress during turbulence—provided pilots understand how those values relate. Finally, they joke about snacks in the cockpit—Catherine once flew past the Grand Canyon while munching a chocolate croissant from a bread-baking class. The lighthearted close reinforces the theme: safe flying is not just about skill, but about preparation, flexibility, and a little indulgence to make the journey enjoyable. For any pilot planning a summer trip—or just wanting to sharpen their cross-country thinking—this episode is a goldmine of practical tips, insightful math, and hard-won wisdom.

In this episode of Scaling UP! H2O, host Trace Blackmore interviews Jake Deak, Marketing & Inside Sales Director at Pyxis Lab, for a deep dive into how innovation is born—not in labs, but in the field. Jake shares the story of Pyxis Lab's rapid evolution from a lean, hands-on team to an industry leader in developing smart, user-informed water treatment technology. Building Solutions from Real-World Problems Jake Deak's journey began during the pandemic, stepping into a role shaped by both legacy and urgency. Working closely with his father and the Pyxis team, he reveals how their approach centers around listening intently to water treatment professionals and designing products that directly solve the problems they face. From the ST500 sensor to the OxiPanel, Jake breaks down how each product starts with a call from the field—an operator struggling with membrane fouling, or a technician frustrated by unreliable chlorine measurements. Pyxis doesn't stop at fixing problems; it uses those challenges as fuel for continuous R&D cycles, bringing hardware, firmware, and app-based solutions to life. Innovation Through Collaboration and Core Values The success of Pyxis Lab isn't just about technology—it's about a culture deeply rooted in empathy and real-world experience. Jacob discusses the importance of maintaining strong core values and explains how hiring practices focused on field expertise led to better tools and better service for end users. From Product Development to Media Innovation Leveraging his media background, Jacob also reveals the upcoming launch of Pyxis Lab's new podcast, "In The Flow." Created to foster industry education and dialogue, this initiative underscores the company's commitment to advancing the water treatment profession through open communication and shared knowledge. A Clear Takeaway If there's one message that defines this episode, it's that the best innovations don't begin in isolation—they begin with a conversation. Whether it's a technician venting a daily frustration or a field team asking “what if?”, Pyxis Lab listens and acts. And as Jake reminds us, the future belongs to those who adapt, engage, and stay relentlessly curious. Conclusion Jacob Deak exemplifies the spirit of innovation that is reshaping the water treatment industry. Through passion, practicality, and persistence, his work at Pyxis Lab offers a compelling model for how technology and human experience can work hand in hand to create better solutions for water professionals worldwide.

But once you take it, you're on your way.” — Trace Blackmore "We don't just create content; we create community." "Starting is always the hardest step." "Data is king. The more we can help operators harness their data, the better decisions they'll make." "We're not just adapting to change; we're leading it." “We are the friend to the water treater—the friend to the end user—and that has led to a lot of new acquisitions for us.” — Jacob Deak Connect with Jake Deak Phone: +15704197057 Email: jacob.deak@pyxis-lab.com Website: Inline & Handheld Analytical Tools for Water Treatment | Pyxis Lab® LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jacobddeak/ Click HERE to Download Episode's Discussion Guide Guest Resources Mentioned The Outsider by Stephen King Dark Half by Stephen King Under The Dome Stephen King “In the Flow” Podcast by Pyxis Lab 2022 AWT Innovation Award Recipient Episode 1 In The Flow : Trace Blackmore ST-500 Inline PTSA Sensor FS-100/101 Series Ultrasonic Flow Meters PRL-100 Personal Radar Level Sensor uPyxis App: Water Tech for Modern World Scaling UP!

Wizz Air takes pride in having the lowest carbon footprint per passenger and kilometer in the airline industry, 52g, number that it expects to bring further down as it renews the fleet with larger, denser and more efficient aircraft.But fleet renewal alone won't do the trick. In fact, “fleet” is just one of the three “Fs” that the pan-European ultra-low-cost airline relies on to get to Net Zero by 2050, even in a context of growing air traffic.“Footprint”, that is, efficiency improvements in the way aircraft are operates, is another, relatively minor “F” in this vision. But the bulk of the carbon reduction will rest upon the massive use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).Since production of SAF is currently small, Wizz Air has decided to take a proactive stance and become a direct investor in a number of innovative SAF projects, one of the most promising of which is Firefly, a British startup that turns sewage into SAF.In this episode of the podcast, Yvonne Moynihan, head of ESG and sustainability at Wizz Air, and James Hygate OBE, founder and CEO of Firefly, share the (virtual) stage to explain this project in detail. We will talk about how Firefly technology works, how scalable it is and how does this project fit into Wizz Air's SAF-sourcing ans well as in the airline's broader decarbonization plans. Tune in for a fascinating chat about one of the most interesting SAF projects right now in Europe and how it will help Wizz Air strengthen its sustainability credentials even further…
