Just a regular TGI Fridays, nothing special there are better choices in the area where you can have a bit more fun.
Visited TGI Friday's for a late evening craft beer and snack. We ordered Green Beans Fries with Wasabi Dip, Chicken Wings and Potato Skins with Cheese, Bacon and sour Cream and Chives. The food was delicious and the service was excellent!
The wait staff was friendly and timely, but the food was mediocre. The person I was with ordered steak, which was barely passable. My sandwich was acceptable, but no more than that.
Enjoyed my meal, a short walk from the Drury Inn. It was busy, but my server did not ignore me even tho I was a single diner. Good steak and good chardonnay.
Another dinner at TGI Fridays, and it was everything that I have come to expect...good to excellent service, consistent quality from location to location, and just enough variety to keep all of us happy. We stopped by for dinner late in the afternoon on a Sunday. I would guess that the restaurant was 1/4 full. Anthony was our server and...
We were staying at the adjacent Drury Inn, and had dinner at about 8. Wait staff were kids, decent service, our server was a bit vague when answering questions on menu items.
Service time was fine, and staff reasonably attentive.
Our food itself was not terrible, but was nondescript. Broccoli and Cajun rice were properly cooked - rice actually v...
We were staying next door and ordered dessert to go. Two desserts cost nearly $13 and were nothing better than a grocery store pre-packaged product. The order wasn't correct when we got back to our room so we had to call and make another trip back. They did make it right, but frustrating either way. We would not go back.
I moved to Troy and enjoyed eating at Fridays in the bar. In the beginning(last year) they had great wait staff and good food. Not sure what happened. The service and food has gone to hell in a hand basket! All I can say is YUCK! Rude waitstaff and a manager who likes to watch her staff drown. Your better...
some menu items overpriced. others fine. some staff friendly. a few others not. better choices very close by.
The food was just mediocre. The service/wait staff seemed to have a no care attitude. Our order was incorrect, which they did make up for by giving us a free dessert. The tea was horrible, when I requested a new glass the waiter asked if I would like a straw to stir it up (to see if that would help)....

The 11% figure is from Mythbusters too, there's an actual company, Fastskinz, which builds much more subtle looking coverings which failed to make the grade in one test: Fastskinz Test Drive: Can a Golf Ball Covering Improve MPGs? - Popular Mechanics
Along the way, we periodically checked the fuel-economy readout on the dash display of both vehicles. At 139.9 miles, the Fastskinz Flex was returning 27.2 mpg while the unwrapped Flex showed 28.4 mpg. At 271.1 miles, the Fastskinz Flex was delivering 23.7 mpg and the unwrapped Flex showed 24.1 mpg. We drove until the gaslight glowed in both cars, which turned out to be 430 miles. Back at the gas pump, we filled each Flex in the same manner we did that morning. The Fastskinz Flex returned 24.52 mpg and the unwrapped Flex returned 24.55 mpg. The dash display read 24.8 mpg in the Fastskinz Flex and 25.6 mpg in the unwrapped Flex.
Essentially, in our test, we found no real fuel-economy improvement from the Fastskinz MPG-Plus wrap. And if you trust Ford's MPG displays, the Fastskinz Flex actually delivered slightly worse fuel economy on our loop. So two identical vehicles, on an identical route at identical speeds, with the same drivers, on the same day, returned nearly the same fuel economy. Where did MPG-Plus go wrong?

Actually the highest priced banjo on eBay is currently going for $24,900. Some vintage 5 strings sell for ca. $75k or more; by my informal estimate your average bluegrass musician spends about $1.5k on their instrument, some more than that. Contrast that with how you can buy a serviceable electric guitar at box stores for $200. I don't know what the typical rocker is spending these days, and indeed some spend tens of thousands on old Fenders and Gibsons, but I'd reckon that bluegrass banjo players are anything but poor.
It's romanticizing them, if you'd call picturing the Neanderthals as brutish carnivores romantic.

Ten years ago, Sarbanes-Oxley was the focus of compliance and corporate governance reform. Sarbanes-Oxley was enacted in response to major corporate scandals involving financial reporting fraud and accounting misrepresentations.
Sarbanes-Oxley resulted in major corporate reforms of the auditing process, and corporate oversight of the financial and auditing process.
For FCPA purposes, Sarbanes-Oxley is an important component in corporate decisions to disclose potential FCPA violations to the government and to the public. In addition, Sarbanes-Oxley covers every company's internal controls, including anti-bribery compliance.
Sarbanes-Oxley imposes certification and reporting requirements on "issuers" which may compel a company to disclose the problematic payments. Key provisions of Sarbanes-Oxley require:
1. CEOs and CFOs to certify the accuracy of their companies' financial statements;
2. Companies to conduct annual assessments of their internal control structures and procedures; and
3. Companies to disclose material changes in their financial conditions or operations.
Sarbanes-Oxley requires companies to design and monitor internal controls and compliance programs, including FCPA compliance. Moreover, under Sarbanes-Oxley, the company and responsible officials have to certify that all material issues, including potential FCPA and fraud issues, have been disclosed to the auditors and the Board of Directors. In addition, Sarbanes-Oxley requires periodic reports filed with the SEC to identify any significant change in internal controls, including corrective actions with respect to material deficiencies and weaknesses. This requirement applies to remedial measures which a company may implement in response to an internal investigation of an FCPA violation.
Sarbanes-Oxley also increases the role and responsibilities of independent audit committees and the Board of Directors in corporate compliance matters, including the oversight of internal investigations.
In many respects, the voluntary disclosure process which has fueled the FCPA enforcement program is the result of reforms required by Sarbanes-Oxley. Prior to Sarbanes-Oxley, companies may not have been required to disclose an FCPA violation to the public, which in turn would permit the company to resolve the matter internally without having to report the violation to the Justice Department and the SEC.
All of that changed in 2002 when Sartbanes-Oxley was enacted, and companies now recognize the need to disclose a potential violation to the government when public disclosure may be required by Sarbanes-Oxley and SEC rules and regulations.
The power of Sarbanes-Oxley stretches from corporate headquarters all the way down to corporate subsidiaries, affiliated entities and joint ventures to the extent they are part of any consolidated financial reports. FCPA books and records requirements flow down in the same way to corporate subsidiaries, affiliated entities and joint ventures.
Civil and criminal liability follows along this path to ensure that corporate actors comply with Sarbanes-Oxley and other requirements, including the FCPA. Corporate actors in subsidiaries can be prosecuted for causing or aiding and abetting a violation by the corporate parent.

The Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute released a report (link) looking at some of the key provisions of the farm bill passed by the Senate Ag Committee:
The following is a a summary of the report on page 1, which is reproduced below:
The U.S. Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition and Forestry approved the "Agriculture Reform, Food and Jobs Act of 2012" on April 26, 2012. This report examines the possible consequences of several key provisions in the proposed legislation.
Models maintained by the Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute at the University of Missouri (FAPRI-MU) are used to estimate possible impacts of these proposed policy changes. Results are presented relative to a baseline prepared in early 2012 that assumes a continuation of existing farm policies. The analysis uses a stochastic approach that considers 500 possible future outcomes for agricultural commodity markets to examine the consequences of continued market volatility.
Eliminating the DCP and ACRE programs would reduce government farm program outlays, farm income and agricultural land values, but would only have modest impacts on agricultural commodity markets. By itself, eliminating DCP and ACRE would result in a small reduction in the total area devoted to major program crops and marginally higher crop prices.
The new ARC and STAX programs would make payments when per-acre revenues fall sufficiently below benchmark levels. Both programs cover relatively "shallow" losses; other crop insurance policies would continue to provide protection against larger losses.
Relative to a scenario that only eliminates DCP and ACRE, introducing ARC and STAX results in a little more land used for crop production and slightly lower crop prices.
Reducing the CRP acreage cap would result in increased crop production and lower crop prices.
Other provisions of the Senate committee-passed bill are not examined in this report.

I extract brew and was planning on buying a 33lb jug of Pilsen or Golden light
I have lots of
I have 12oz
Dingeman's Special B
Briess Special Roast
Dingeman's Biscuit
Munton's Chocolate
I have 14oz of Roast Barley
I have 8oz
Dingeman's Munich
Just about anything.
7 Pounds Extract
B: 1 ounce Centennial
F: 1 ounce Cascade
A: 1 ounce Willamette
1/2 pound Special B
1/4 pound Biscuit
1/4 pound Special Roast
White Labs English Ale
Wyeast British Ale
S-04 dry yeast
David, I was looking for a recipe.
AHB, thanks. What style would that fit in?
I see brown ale, brown porter or even a BGS with some sugar. You could use some lighter crystal. With some lighter crystal malt you could do a APA, or a blonde. With some roasted barley you could make a dry stout.
You have a number of malts there that should be mashed.
Here is a brown porter.
6 lb LME
10 oz Chocolate Malt
6 oz Special B
2 oz Willamette at 60 minutes in a 3 gallon boil.
(could use some lighter crystal, like 1 lb of 80L or so)
If you add you munich, biscuit and special roast and steep at 150 for 60 minutes it may pass as a robust porter (but some 4 oz of black patent too would help.)
I think I'll have another pint of this highly flawed beer because it's so damned good.
Classic American Pilsner-ish:
7lb extract
1oz Cluster @60, 10, and flameout
3 packs Wyeast 2308
I`ll say a bionde would do very nice this time of year. No need for it to be boring either especially w/ pilsner extract.
5-6 lbs pilsen/pale extract
8-12 oz munich (depends on lovibond)
5 oz victory/buscuit
1 oz willamette - B
1 oz cluster 20 min (gives a nice subtle black currant flavor)
1 oz willamette 2 min

One of my wife's associates was going to throw away this old rocking horse and asked if anyone might be interested in it, so of course my wife dragged it home. I thought I might be able to spruce it up a bit and give it to my 6 month old Granddaughter, Emily, for Christmas (among many other things, of course). I now work 4 months of the year and have the other 8 off, so once I have acquired all the tools I want, I hope to improve my woodworking skills.
I've never been accused of being particularly artistic, so my projects aren't anywhere near the caliber of what I see on the site, but maybe some of my ideas might inspire someone…

3AJ Battery capacity?
I just bought a 3AJ 88 og 89. I think it is an 600Z (whatever the Z would mean...) Anyway, i'm having startproblems. I have noticed that the battery isn't filling completly the case.
Do anyone know wich capacity the battery should have? Mine is 12Ah.
Nice forum!!
The '88/'89 600 Teneres use a 12 a/h battery. It's a CB12AL-A2, same as a YB12AL-A2. Dimensions are (LxWxH) 135x81x161.
Use a volt meter across the terminals and try to start it to see what the voltage drops to.
Thank you. I'll try this. What would be a typical voltage of a good battery during start of the motor?

PINS release new single and video
PINS are a 4-piece powerhouse from Manchester who we're a little bit excited about. Today they release their new single, 'Eleventh Hour', and it's like listening to all those noise-pop bands from America, or a HoZac/SubPop hybrid combining the filth of Crocodiles/Crystal Stilts with the songwriting ability of Dum Dum Girls.
Basically we love the band, and we love the song. We're about 99% sure you will too.

"Tony sets his team up. They're a strong, physical unit. Set-plays they excel at. They're very good defensively, and that's hard for any team to go and break them down. That's something that we need to try and achieve.
"The one [fixture] there last year was one of our big results of the season and obviously we're going to have to try and emulate that."

Rhodes (city)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rhodes (Greek: ?????, Ródos, [?ro?os]) is the principal city and a former municipality on the island of Rhodes an island in the Dodecanese, Greece. Since the 2011 local government reform it is part of the municipality Rhodes, of which it is the seat and a municipal unit.[2] It has a population of approximately 80,000. Rhodes has been famous since antiquity as the site of Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Colossus has been used in many poems, the most famous being Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar". The citadel of Rhodes, built by the Hospitalliers, is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe which in 1988 was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The City of Rhodes is a popular international tourist destination.
The city of Rhodes is situated in the north-east tip of the island and forms a triangle from north to south. It is the smallest municipality of the island in terms of land area and the largest in population. It borders the Aegean Sea to the north, the east and the west and with the municipalities of Ialysos and Kallithea in the south.
The island of Rhodes is at a crossroads between Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. This has given the city and the island many different identities, cultures, architectures, and languages over its long history. Its position in major sea routes has given Rhodes a very rich history. The island has been inhabited since about 4000 BC (Neolithic Period).[3]
Classical Period
The city of Rhodes was formed by the cities of Ialyssos, Kamiros and Lindos in 408 BC,[3] and prospered for three centuries during its Golden Age, when sea trade, skilled shipbuilders, and open-minded politicians of the city kept it prosperous until Roman times. The Colossus of Rhodes, one of the original Seven Wonders of the Ancient World was built by the Lindian sculptor Chares between 304 and 293 BC,[3] which took 12 years and was completed in 282 BC. The statue represented their sun god Helios, which stood at the harbour entrance. The ancient city had a well-constructed sewage system as well as a water supply network as designed by Hippodamus. A strong earthquake hit Rhodes about 226 BC, badly damaging the city and toppling the Colossus.[3] For the next eight centuries it lay in ruins until it was sold to a Jewish merchant, reputed to require 900 camels to haul it away.
Roman period
In 164 BC, Rhodes came under Roman control.[4] It was able to keep its beauty and develop into a leading center of learning for arts and science. Many traces of the Roman period still exist throughout the city and give us an insight into the level of civilization at the time.[4] According to Acts 21:1, the Apostle Paul stopped at Rhodes near the end of his third missionary journey.
Byzantine period
In medieval times, Rhodes was an important Byzantine trading post, as also a crossroads for ships sailing between Constantinople and Alexandria. In the early years of the divided Roman Empire, the Isaurians, a mountain tribe from Cilicia, invaded the island and burned the city. In the 7th century it was captured by the Arabs. The latter were the ones who removed the scattered pieces of the Colossus from the port and moved them to Syria where they destroyed them to make coins. After the fall of the Byzantine Empire to the Fourth Crusade in 1204, the native noble Leo Gabalas took control of the island, but after his death and succession by his brother John, the island was briefly occupied by the Genoese before being returned to the Emperor of Nicaea, though ushering in a new, but short-lived, Byzantine period.
Knights' period
The Knights Hospitallers captured and established their headquarters on Rhodes when they left Cyprus[5] [6] after the persecution of the Knights Templar in 1307. Pope Clement V confirmed the Hospitallers possession of the Island in 1309. The Knights remained on the Island for the next two centuries.
In 1444, the Mamluk fleet of Egypt laid a siege to Rhodes, but the Knights aided by the Burgundian naval commander Geoffroy de Thoisy beat off the Muslim attack.
After the Fall of Constantinople in 1453 the Ottoman Empire began a rapid expansion and in 1480 Sultan Mehmet launched an invasion of Rhodes commanded by Mesic Pasha. The defenders repelled Turkish attacks from both landward and seaward sides and the invaders left the Island in defeat. The defeat halted a concurrent invasion of the Italian peninsula by Ottoman forces and prevented possible Muslim incursion and control of Western Europe.
After the Ottoman defeat in 1480 the Knights Grand Master, Pierre d'Aubusson, oversaw the strengthening of the cities over the next few decades. By the time of his death in 1521 Rhodes possessed the strongest fortifications of any Christian Bastion in the World. The continued Naval attack launched from Rhodes on Muslim Merchants until 1522 the newly enthroned Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent led a second Siege of Rhodes (1522).
The vastly outnumbered Knights made a spirited defense of the city and inflicted heavy casualties upon the Ottoman besiegers. In December 1522 the Knights and Suleiman came to terms and the Knights were allowed to leave the city with all the wealth they could carry, in return there would be no retribution upon the inhabitants of the city and they would be allowed to continue to freely practice Christianity. On January 1, 1523 the Knights departed from the island, leaving it to Ottoman control.
Ottoman period
In the Ottoman era, new buildings were constructed: mosques, public baths and mansions for the new patrons. The Greeks were forced to abandon the fortified city and move to new suburbs outside its walls. The city maintained its main economic function as a market for the agricultural products of the interior of the island and the surrounding small islands.
After the establishment of their sovereignty ?n the island, the Ottoman Turks converted most of the churches into mosques and transformed the major houses into private mansions or public buildings. This transformation was a long-term process that aimed to adapt the buildings to the Ottoman way of living. The Knights period facades with their sculptured decorations, the arched gates and hewn stone walls were enriched with the random character of the Ottoman architecture adapted to the local climate and culture. ?n this process most ?f the architectural features of the existing buildings were preserved. The most characteristic additions were the baths (usually in the back of the buildings) and the enclosed wooden balconies ?n the facades over the narrow streets.In this way most of the buildings of the Hospitaliers' period in the Medieval Town were well preserved. The result was a mixture of oriental architecture with imposing western architectural remains and more recent buildings, which were characteristic of the local architecture of the time.
?n the 19th century, the city was the capital of the Eyalet of the Archipelago, but the decline of the Ottoman Empire resulted in the general neglect of the town and its buildings, which further deteriorated due to the strong earthquakes that often plague the area.
Italian period
In 1912 Italian troops took the island over with the rest of the Dodecanese Islands, and established an Italian colony known as Isole Italiane dell'Egeo in 1923.[7]
The Italians would later demolish the houses that were built on and around the city walls during the Ottoman era. They also turned the Jewish and Ottoman cemeteries into a green zone surrounding the Medieval Town.[7] The Italians preserved what was left from the Knights' period, and destroyed all Ottoman buildings. They also reconstructed the Grand Master's Palace.[7] Furthermore, an Institute for the study of the History and Culture of the region was established, and major infrastructure work was done to modernize Rhodes.[7]
Modern period
The British bombs that fell on the medieval city of Rhodes in 1944 claimed human lives and destroyed a great number of buildings, leaving large gaps in the urban tissue. One of the first Decrees of the Greek administration designated those areas as reserved for future excavations and a number of edifices as safeguarded buildings.
In 1957, a new city plan was approved by a Decree and in 1960 the entire medieval town was designated as a protected monument by the Ministry of Culture. In 1961 and 1963 new Decrees were issued concerning the new city plan. They provided for the widening of existing streets and the opening of new ones. These were not implemented in the old city due to the resistance of the Archaeological Service. In 1988, the old town of Rhodes was designated as a World Heritage City by UNESCO.
Rhodes is the capital of the island of Rhodes and of the Rhodes regional unit. It was the capital of the former Dodecanese Prefecture. The city also holds an office of the South Aegean region.

Gothic buildings in the historical upper town.
Recently, the Byzantine harbor was excavated, discovering unique medieval shipwrecks.
Both city and island population continue to grow contrary to national levels; the city has an official population of 54,000, but the actual population is estimated between 115,000 and 120,000. This is caused by many permanent residents of the city registering in their place of birth during the census. Thus the city's total population, as counted by the census, is less than the number of people actually residing in the city. Currently it is estimated that 120,000 people reside permanently in the city although last census showed only 54,000.
Facilities by category:
Primary Education: 21 primary schools
Secondary Education: 7 high schools and 7 lyceums
Higher Education: Some departments of the Aegean University, Higher and Lower Tourism Schools and some private institutes
The last years two private schools were also established and offer classes from primary to lyceum education.
The city's public transit system consists of a bus network which also connects the city to outlying resort areas during tourism season.
Ferries connect the island's commercial passenger port with several nearby islands within the Dodecanese Islands, as well as with the Cycladic Islands, the Greek mainland, and Bodrum in Turkey. The city is also a popular port of call for cruise itineraries, especially in the summer months.
Both the city and the island of Rhodes are served by Diagoras International Airport, situated 14 km south west of the city. It is connected to all other major Greek airports and to Cyprus throughout the year. During tourism season, international flights connect the island with several European cities and with Israel.
Television and radio
Most major nation-wide television stations broadcast in the city. There are also five local television stations and a number of local and national radio stations.
There are three daily newspapers issued that deal with both the city and the whole region. Moreover two are issued every Monday and there are few others with specific themes.
I Rodiaki [1] (translated "The Rhodian", daily)
I Proodos [2] (translated "Progress", daily)
I Dimokratiki [3] (translated "The Democrat", daily)
I Gnomi (translated "The Opinion", weekly)
I Drasi (translated "Action", weekly)
The city after a long dark period of almost 15 years is reviving in many team sports. Football and basketball are the most popular but a wide variety is also in development during the last years with the most noticeable in rugby.
The emblem of Diagoras GS.
The city has two major football teams; Diagoras GS and AS Rodos after a long period are back in national level and compete in Greek National Second Division (Football League) while the rest of the city based teams compete in the local Amateur Divisions.
The last 15 years basketball is represented in national level by Kolossos Rodou BC which currently won promotion to National A1 Ethniki just one year after being relegated. Other notable teams are AS Diagoras Rhodes which just gained promotion in National Third Division and AS Dodekanisos, the pride of the Aegean that competes and stars in the national basketball league for handicapped people.
A variety of other sports is also available and in development in the city. In volleyball AS Diagoras Rhodes lost in the third division and returns to the local leagues; in rugby the recently formed Colossoi of Rhodes reached the top league finals for the second time in a row. The Nautical Club of Rhodes and Ygros Stivos of Rhodes have water polo teams in low level national divisions; the Rhodian Tennis Club play tennis and ping-pong in its privately owned facilities; AS Diagoras Rhodes have competitive teams in cycling and in track and field athletics. Finally ziu zitsu, karate, tae-kwon-do and other Eastern oriented sports are available with local teams that enjoy sporadic national success.
Sports venues
The city has three major sports venues; the Rhodes Municipal Stadium and the Kallipateira National Athletic Center serve all outdoor activities while the Municipal Indoor Hall of "Venetokleio" serves indoor sports.

A beautiful sunrise in the city of Rodos
Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.
The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.
Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".
Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.
Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights.
In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states.

Sustainability metrics too tight for every farm
The measurement of sustainability from one farm to the next farm seems almost impossible based on a single set of metrics or a tightly written definition. A large-scale potato producer brought the problem home better than any row-crop producer, although the problem persists for all farming, during the recent Bayer CropScience 2012 Ag Issues Forum.
The potato producer based in Idaho, talked about sustainability and how his operation is trying its best to be sustainable within the definitions being thrown at it by different retail potato marketers. I listened intently during the forum in Nashville, and came away thinking that the producer brought up some really important ideas.
Bob Meek, chief executive officer of Wada Farms Marketing Group, explained that applying the same sustainable techniques on every potato farm will not work. Each farm has to be handled differently to grow potatoes.
"Our five farms in Idaho, each of which is drastically different, requires different farming techniques, different inputs and totally different measurements," Meek said. He then noted that "you cannot measure us compared to Wisconsin, Colorado, Washington or California for potato growing because they require different inputs."
He said the Wada Farms Marketing Group has a large operation in growing and marketing potatoes, and at least three different retailer chains have asked for cooperation in how "we define and establish a system so that we can rate our suppliers and be assured that we are buying from the most sustainably active suppliers."
Meek said there are so many voices about defining sustainability. "How do you get 10 different languages to become a common language? It is very difficult. I think that is one of the greatest challenges we face as an industry, especially on the retail side of the market. How do you define what is good, what is acceptable or not acceptable?"
The most important aspect of sustainability is what farmers have said. "A good grower is not in business today unless he is sustainable," he said. And operating their farm with a "clear conscious" is what a farmer needs to do.
Precision agriculture technology is the way to become even more sustainable in agriculture for the foreseeable future. "Whether there is new technology or no technology, we need to think of improvements so that we can do something better today than we did yesterday," Meek said.
There are activist groups that seem to think that improvement should be continuous, and they aren't really assisting in the overall solutions.

I am preparing an in depth feature article on "sustainability" from a farmers perspective, and a food processor perspective. If anyone has any insights they'd be willing to share, that would be great, and it could be done as a quote, or anonymously if you wish. Thank you, Chris

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- A Lee County man will serve 30 years in prison after pleading guilty to molesting a child.
Police arrested Alan Johnson after someone found child porn on his cell phone when it was dropped outside of a Walmart. Johnson was already sentenced to 50 years in federal court. He will serve his time concurrently with the federal sentence, and is ordered to have no contact with the victim.
The second suspect in this case, Johnson's girlfriend, Jennifer Sparks, will also spend 30 years behind bars. That will also run at the same time as her federal sentence. After she's released, she will have to register as a sex predator and was ordered to have no contact with the victim.

Word choices paint unfair picture
I am concerned about how we are expressing things in the media to sway public opinion.
The latest fashion is to bemoan income inequality, as though everyone should be making the same income. But is that what we want? Do we want a brain surgeon to be paid the same as a department store sales clerk? Of course not. People should be paid according to their knowledge, skill and performance. Income inequality is to be desired: the more we improve ourselves, the more valuable we become and the higher income we can command.
We need a different term to describe the real issue, which is the amount of wealth held by a very few people, thereby not only lowering the living standards of many others, but giving these few an immense amount of power over our lives. Even power inequality doesn't quite give it a proper name, though it is much more expressive of the real problem.
And the incredibly naïve statement by Pope Francis (quoted by President Barack Obama): How could it be that it's not a news item when an elderly homeless person dies of exposure, but it is news when the stock market loses two points? Although we have compassion for the homeless person, he/she directly affects only a handful of people; the stock market directly affects millions. Do we want our newspapers to be filled with the obituaries of thousands of unfortunate persons in the world? Would you buy such a newspaper if it were?
The real issue is homelessness and the plights of the less fortunate, not news coverage and the pathetic attempt to make us feel socially guilty.
How we express things determines how we approach a solution, and the media are doing a poor job of homing in on the real concerns.
W. BRIAN HARRIS Fort Wayne
GOP shows its tyrannical hand
Power tends to corrupt and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
– Lord Acton, 1887
Though issued in a different time, this quote adequately describes the Indiana Republican Party. Since taking control of the state's executive and legislative branches, Hoosiers have paid the price for GOP victories in the areas of health care, education and welfare reform. Rather than accepting responsibility for these failed initiatives or perhaps learning from their mistakes, however, the GOP crazy train steams on.
Even more, when GOP-backed legislation faces a potential barrier, Republicans have shown tremendous skill in the art of political maneuvering. The most recent example of this involves House Speaker Brian Bosma's decision to steer HJR 3, a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage, to a friendlier committee. While the decision has paved the way for yet another GOP faith-based initiative, Bosma's decision reveals a strong disdain for the legislative process as well as for debate and compromise.
Therefore, as Republicans celebrate their short-term victory, they fail to acknowledge the threat that they pose to both Hoosiers and to the state constitution. Come November, my hope is that voters will address this threat by ending the GOP's tyrannical rule over the state of Indiana.
TODD ARMSTRONG Fort Wayne
Personal connection with HJR 3
My sophomore year of high school in 2010, I was hit with a shock. My good friend came out as bisexual.
I was raised Missouri Synod Lutheran and had always regarded gay and bisexual people differently than I regarded straight people. I had never gotten especially close with out people, either. When my friend broke the news, it was such a strange experience for me because he was no different a friend than he had been before.
He was still the same intelligent, funny, creative, sarcastic friend I had made freshman year. I saw all his friends congratulating him on being who he really is, and I realized that I wanted to be there for him in the same way that they were there for him. I didn't want him to be treated differently by anyone, especially me.
I want him to have the same chance at happiness here as I have. If he can't have that, he may leave the state. Indiana would lose a very brilliant mind, and I would lose him.
A friend is a friend. And my friend deserves the freedoms HJR 3 would deny him and countless other Hoosiers.

Incidents of Travel in Yucatan
Excerpt: ... mark of civilization which we had not seen for a long time; an indication that he was from the city of Tekax, and had merely come out ... Show synopsis Excerpt: ... mark of civilization which we had not seen for a long time; an indication that he was from the city of Tekax, and had merely come out for a morning ride. The proprietor came out to receive us, and, pointing to the mound, we made some inquiry about the building, but he did not comprehend us, and, supposing that we meant some old ranchos in that direction, said that they were for the servants. Albino explained that we were travelling over the country in search of ruins, and the gentleman looked at him perhaps somewhat as the inn-keeper looked at Sancho Panza when he explained that his master was a knight-errant travelling to redress grievances. We succeeded, however, in coming to an understanding about the mound, and the master told us that he had never been to it; that there was no path; that if we attempted to go to it we should be eaten up by garrapatas, and he called some Indians, who said that it was entirely in ruins. This was satisfactory, for the idea of being loaded with garrapatas to carry about till night had almost made me recoil. At the same time, the other gentlemen told us of other ruins at a league's distance from Tekax, on the hacienda of Senor Calera. I felt strongly disposed to turn off and visit the latter, but our carrier had gone on, and the little difficulties of overtaking him, procuring another for a change of route, and perhaps losing a day, were now serious objections; besides, there was no end to the ruins. Leaving the hacienda, we entered, with a satisfaction that can hardly be described, upon a broad road for carretas and calesas. We had emerged from the narrow and tangled path of milpas and ranchos, and were once more on a camino real. We had accomplished a journey which we were assured, on setting out, was impracticable; and now we were coming upon the finest portion of the state, famed for its rich sugar plantations. We met heavy, lumbering vehicles drawn by oxen and horses, carrying sugar from the haciendas. Very...

In a matchup of the two top boys volleyball programs in Western Massachusetts, No. 1 Agawam defeated No. 2 Chicopee Comp in four sets, 14-25, 25-19, 25-21, 25-15.
Chicopee Comp entered the match with a perfect 5-0 record, while Agawam's two losses come by way of forfeit for using an ineligible player.
The Brownies (7-2) were led by Ben Cassidy, who had five service aces, along with 12 kills and nine digs. Zach Goggin led Agawam with 42 assists, while Bailey Cecchi had a team-high 16 kills.
Josiah Douglas had a strong game for the Colts, serving three aces and adding a team-high 10 kills and 13 digs. David Figueroa chipped in six kills and three blocks, while Sean Buxton had five kills and two blocks.

Background checks are now mandatory for guns shows on City of Tucson property. This decision comes after a meeting packed with strong advocates on each side.
The packed house spilled out into a courtyard after the city council meeting. With two passionate sides of the argument that at some points made the atmosphere inside very tense.
Police reportedly escorted Councilman Steve Kozachik out a side door after the meeting.
The council voted unanimously in support of the resolution. The City attorney will create the language in the next two weeks, but in the meantime effective now, there is a hold on gun show permits.
One of the January 8th shooting survivors spoke, as did the chaplain who blessed the bodies of the victims.
Guns rights advocates also spoke out saying background checks do not prevent mass shootings.
This is the time to move forward.
The background checks may move gun show out of the Tucson Convention Center. Pima County Fairgrounds says beyond the five gun shows it has each year it has not had any new request so far.
