Mare reproductive challenges can range from endometritis to ovarian irregularities such as hemorrhagic anovulatory follicles, ovarian hematomas, and persistent corpora lutea, all of which can disrupt normal cycles and fertility. Older mares often face anatomical complications that increase contamination and impair conception. Hormonal tumors such as granulosa-theca cell tumors might spur erratic behaviors and cycle abnormalities, while pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID, formerly Cushing's disease) can further dampen reproductive performance by causing abnormal cycles, anovulation, and recurring endometritis. Vigilant diagnostics—including ultrasound, hormone panels, and uterine evaluation—are essential in identifying and managing these issues efficiently. During this Ask TheHorse Live Q&A two experts answer your questions about common mare reproductive problems. This episode is sponsored by Equithrive. About the Experts: Carleigh Fedorka, PhD, assistant professor of equine reproductive physiology at Colorado State University, in Fort Collins, is a global expert in reproductive immunology. She has focused her research on understanding the relationship between the immune system and the reproductive tract, evaluating the efficacy of treatments on various reproductive disorders, and discovering biomarkers for reproductive health. Fedorka earned her BS degree from St. Lawrence University, in Canton, New York, and her PhD in Veterinary Sciences from the University of Kentucky, in Lexington, after working in the industry as a manager of a commercial Thoroughbred breeding farm. She maintains a presence in the equine industry by retraining countless off the track Thoroughbreds, including her personal event horses Judge Johnny (JJ) and Strike Two (Jeter). In her spare time, she enjoys fly fishing, spending time with her husband and their dog, and cheering on the Buffalo Bills.Jenna Ward, DVM, Dipl. ACT, is a clinician and lecturer in large animal reproduction at the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Center, in Kennett Square. She earned her DVM at Texas A&M University, in College Station. Ward's research includes stallion reproductive health and genetic-related embryonic loss in horses.

On this Make A Difference Minute, I'm reminding listeners to stay alert as scams become more sophisticated and harder to detect. From emails to phone calls to text messages, scammers rely on fear and urgency to trick people into acting without thinking. This segment encourages vigilance, questioning every source, and protecting personal information, because slowing down and verifying can stop a scam before it starts.

Our 50th episode of QuidelOrtho Science Bytes features Dr. Jonathan Temte, a leading public health expert, discussing how schools, families, and healthcare providers can stay ahead of respiratory illnesses this school year. As students return to classrooms, familiar viruses like flu, RSV, and COVID-19 often resurge.

He is a professor of family medicine and community health and the Associate Dean for Public Health and Community Engagement for the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health.

He pursued his medical training at the University of Wisconsin Medical School, where he received his MD. Dr. Temte also served as the Director of the Wisconsin Research and Education Network from 2000 to 2005. He chaired the American Academy of Family Physicians Commission on Science in 2008, the AAFP, and he currently chairs the Wisconsin Council on Immunization Practices. He also served as AAFP liaison to the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices from 2004 to 2008, where he was appointed a voting member from 2008 to 2015 and served as chair from 2012 to 2015.

As summer holiday season gets into full swing and the hunt for the best deals ramps up, FraudSMART is issuing a timely reminder: be vigilant against a seasonal rise in travel scams. FraudSMART, the fraud awareness initiative developed by Banking & Payments Federation Ireland (BPFI), warns that these scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, with fraudsters capitalising on the demand for last-minute getaways, particularly touting 'recent cancellations' or 'limited time offers' at heavily discounted rates. Holidaymakers are being lured in with these tempting offers and discounts, often through fake websites, online ads and social media links. To help consumers navigate online travel bookings safely, FraudSMART is urging every holidaymaker to utilise a free tool available on the FraudSMART website: Scamchecker.ie. This essential resource allows you to quickly verify the legitimacy of any website or link before making a booking, acting as your crucial first line of defence against online fraud. FRAUDSMART'S TOP TIPS FOR A SECURE SUMMER: Book Smart: Always use trusted and well-known booking websites or travel agents. Verify before you buy! Before you commit, check the link on Scamchecker.ie. This free tool is your essential safeguard against fake websites and fraudulent offers. Be Wary of Unsolicited Offers: Exercise caution with unsolicited emails or social media ads offering cheap holiday deals. Always verify special offers by visiting the official website of the travel company, rather than clicking on embedded links in an email or advert. Avoid Bank Transfers: Avoid making payments through bank transfers, as these are difficult to trace and recover. Use secure Wi-Fi: Do not use unsecured or public Wi-Fi networks when making payments; switch to 3G/4G on your phone if necessary. Keep Records: Print or save a copy of your order and purchase details. Update Security: Ensure your computer's security is up to date with reliable antivirus and browser software. Protect Your Card: Keep your card in your sights and protect your PIN - never share or write down your PIN details. Niamh Davenport, Head of Financial Crime at BPFI and lead for the FraudSMART campaign, said: "As people across Ireland plan last-minute getaways, fraudsters are working just as hard to take advantage of the holiday rush. These scams can be incredibly convincing and come from multiple sources including fake and copycat websites, convincing online adverts and social media posts. However, once payment is made - often by bank transfer - the so-called agent or website disappears, leaving victims without a booking and out of pocket. Some victims may even receive a fake booking confirmation, only to discover the scam after they have travelled to the destination and find the property doesn't exist when they arrive." Ms Davenport added: "However, there are a number of red flags to look out for, such as being asked to pay by bank transfer or being pressurised to act quickly. Our Scamchecker.ie tool gives consumers a simple, effective, and free way to double-check the legitimacy of a website or link before making a booking. If you pause before you pay, and use Scamchecker.ie, it can be the difference between the holiday of a lifetime or a holiday disaster and significant financial loss." FraudSMART is encouraging holidaymakers to make Scamchecker.ie the first stop before booking any holiday deal online. If you suspect you have been scammed, contact your bank immediately and report the incident to the Gardaí.

In this sermon “Staying Vigilant in Troubled Times” urges believers to remain spiritually alert amid a morally chaotic and deceptive culture that reflects the warnings in 2 Timothy 3. Pastor Willie emphasizes the danger of counterfeit faith and worldly influences—especially through technology—and calls Christians to pursue genuine transformation through God's power, not just religious appearances. Ultimately, the message challenges individuals, especially parents and spiritual leaders, to guard their homes, choose godly influences, and live differently as part of God's called-out people.

Mark Smith from the Four Boxes Diner joins the show to discuss staying vigilant on new gun laws and what may be on the horizon. Visit the Howie Carr Radio Network website to access columns, podcasts, and other exclusive content.

The warning to the church at Sardis was to be vigilant in their faith and resist complacency. We too need to heed this warning and recognize that we are stewards for Christ's sake.
