The South Whidbey Record is a newspaper based in Langley, Washington, United States. It publishes Wednesdays and Saturdays.
History
[edit]The paper started as the Whidby Record and later changed its name in the 1940s to The Whidbey Record when the proper spelling of the island's namesake, Joseph Whidbey, was discovered to have an "e" in it.[2] The paper adopted its present name in 1981.[3] The Examiner won awards from the Suburban Newspapers of America in 2004,[4] 2005,[5] and 2008.[6]
By 2013, it was owned by Sound Publishing. The company owns two other papers on Whidbey Island, the Whidbey Examiner and the Whidbey News-Times; the three papers, which previously competed with one another, shared a single publisher, Kasia Pierzga, a founder of the Examiner, until 2013, when she was succeeded by Kevin Graves.[3] Its circulation has been estimated at 4,500.[7]
In 1989, its circulation was reported at 3,100.[8]
A series of winter storms in 2006–07 caused more than nine power outages on Whidbey Island, which challenged the paper's operations, but Sound Publishing was able to maintain its production schedule.[9]

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
