County fairs continue around Wisconsin regardless of the weather. Kiley Allan visits with UW-Extension Youth Livestock Specialist, Bernie O’Rourke. She explains the best practices to keep livestock calm at fairs. With so many variables at the fair, exhibitors must take the time at home to properly desensitize their livestock to different noises and experiences. The proper understanding of the animal's flight zone is essential for a smooth fair experience. She also explains the best ways for exhibitors to answer questions from fairgoers about interacting with their animals. Severe weather impacted some communities in NE Wisconsin overnight with multiple tornadoes and power outages. Stu Muck says the severe stuff is passed, but the heat and humidity will stick around. It's still early, and fairs have 30 days to report attendance numbers, but unfortunately, thunderstorms, tornado warnings, and heat have had an impact on county fair events. Luckily, Wisconsin's fairs are prepared. Stephanie Hoff gets an update from Jayme Butke, executive secretary of the WI Fair Association, on how fairs prepare for weather events. She also notes that many fairs are changing their focus from large music acts and attractions to more locally focused aspects like "Battle of the Bands" and pie contests. Butke says it helps fairs manage their finances a little more, and hopefully attract a groundswell of local attention. Wisconsin Farm Technology Days is less than two weeks out. Don Zietlow is one of the volunteers prepping grounds for the big crowds. Zietlow says planning the field demonstrations for Wisconsin Farm Technology Days is almost like a homecoming for him. He remembers being a part of the field demos a previous time the Clinton Family hosted the show -- he was a natural recruit for the job this year. Global milk production is something to keep an eye on according to Ryan Yonkman, vice president of EverAg. U.S. milk production in June was up over 3% - quite a surprise to the market and analysts like Yonkman. Nearly perfect weather on the west coast means there won't likely be any dip in production because of heat. He also remains optimistic that the slough of international trade deals that have been signed will be friendly dairy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Seattle hockey fans rejoice! There is a new professional women’s team to root for, starting this fall. The name of the team? Well … that’s yet to be determined, but there are many things we DO know about this upcoming third season of the Professional Women’s Hockey League.

There’ll now be 8 teams total vying for the “Walter Cup.” And things are moving FAST at PWHL Seattle: Players have been drafted, head coach Steve O’Rourke has been hired.

The images we use to think about moral character are powerful. They inform our understanding of the moral virtues and the ways in which moral character develops. However, this aspect of virtue ethics is rarely discussed.In Ecological Moral Character: A Catholic Model (Georgetown UP, 2024) , Nancy M. Rourke creates an ecological model through which we can form images of moral character. She integrates concepts of ecology with Aquinas' vision and describes the dynamics of a moral character in terms of the processes and functions that take place in an ecosystem. The virtues, the passions, the will, and the intellect, are also described in terms of this model.Ecological Moral Character asks readers to choose deliberately the models we use to imagine moral character and offers this ecological virtue model as a vital framework for a period of environmental crisis. Sam Young is a recent PhD graduate from Cardiff University and now independent scholar, specialising in the theological history of French social Catholicism during the 1920s and 1930s.

The images we use to think about moral character are powerful. They inform our understanding of the moral virtues and the ways in which moral character develops. However, this aspect of virtue ethics is rarely discussed.In Ecological Moral Character: A Catholic Model (Georgetown UP, 2024) , Nancy M. Rourke creates an ecological model through which we can form images of moral character. She integrates concepts of ecology with Aquinas' vision and describes the dynamics of a moral character in terms of the processes and functions that take place in an ecosystem. The virtues, the passions, the will, and the intellect, are also described in terms of this model.Ecological Moral Character asks readers to choose deliberately the models we use to imagine moral character and offers this ecological virtue model as a vital framework for a period of environmental crisis. Sam Young is a recent PhD graduate from Cardiff University and now independent scholar, specialising in the theological history of French social Catholicism during the 1920s and 1930s.
