Kitchen blenders have come a long way since Stephen J. Poplawski, owner of Stevens Electric Co. in Racine, Wisconsin, began designing drink mixers in 1919. He patented them in 1922, along with a liquefier blender, and soon they were in use at soda fountains around the country to whip up malted milkshakes.
Fifteen years later, the Vitamix company–which had made kitchen products since 1921–introduced its own heavy-duty version of the blender. In 1949, the company hit the big time after showcasing its blender in the world’s first TV infomercial.

Take in the thrills and spills of athletics at the American Kennel Club Dog Agility Competition. Dogs and their handlers of every experience and training level race against the clock as they take on obstacles and courses that require concentration, training, and teamwork. More experienced dogs usually take the field first, and the afternoon is reserved for newcomers to the agility scene. Admission is free and seating is wherever you can find it. And if you think the Agility Competition might be a great way for you and your pup to get involved in some mutual exercise, agility trainers are usually on site both days to point you in the right direction.
