The barriers Hispanic farmers face in starting and expanding farming operations in the United States includes the lingering effects of past government discrimination, current marketing and use of information, and their own agricultural traditions. Both the government and the farmers see the need for improvement, but reaching the end goal is a challenge. NET News and Harvest Public Media reporter Clay Masters reports and produces "Hispanic Farmers on Broken Ground." The television documentary features Nebraska Hispanic farm owners, the author of a report on the current state of Hispanic farm ownership in the state, Hispanic students involved in a youth farming organization, as well as U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack. The documentary aims to examine the obstacles currently facing Hispanic farmers in the Midwest and across the country, as well as look ahead to possible solutions for the future.

Yaya Toure
31-Year-Old Midfielder Manchester City Premier Full Name: Gnegneri Yaya Toure
Côte d'Ivoire
November 23, 2014 Yaya Toure News
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure took four shots, all on goal, made three key passes and scored the match-winner in the 62nd minute of Manchester City's 2-1 win over Swansea City on Saturday.
Toure has been a struggling fantasy producer this season, but he's starting to turn it on, scoring two goals and assisting on another in his last three matches in all competitions. He'll get a bit of a break in the midweek, as he is suspended for Tuesday's Champions League match against Bayern Munich after picking up two yellows against CSKA Moscow back on Oct. 21.

November 5, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure scored, but was shown a red card in Manchester City's devastating 2-1 loss to CSKA Moscow in UCL group stage play on Wednesday.
Toure has regressed this season for City, and the fans are starting to turn against the old-time fan favorite. With the red card, he has most likely seen his last Champions League action as City are in the basement of Group E with Bayern Munich on the horizon in their next match.
October 31, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure picked up a groin injury in Wednesday's Capital One Cup match against Newcastle, but manager Manuel Pellegrini said Friday that he expects Toure to play Sunday against Manchester United.
Manchester City will be without David Silva for at least three weeks after he picked up a knee injury Wednesday, putting even more pressure on Toure to move the attack forward against a Manchester United defense that has really struggled this season.
October 29, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure suffered a groin injury during Wednesday's Capital One Cup match against Newcastle, ESPN FC reports.
Toure was able to play through the issue a bit, but eventually came off in the 60th minute. The injury couldn't have come at a worse time, as the Citizens will host Manchester United this Sunday.
October 18, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure is available off the bench for Manchester City Premier League match against Tottenham on Saturday.
Toure returned late in the week from international duty, and while manager Manuel Pellegrini said Toure would play a part, it looks like it won't be guaranteed.
October 17, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure is expected to play in Manchester City's Premier League match against Tottenham on Saturday despite returning from international duty Wednesday, ESPN FC reports.
Toure missed City's first game after the September international break, but manager Manuel Pellegrini said all of his players who played for their national teams are available to face Spurs.
October 15, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure may miss Manchester City's matches against Tottenham on Saturday due to a late return from international duty, reports the Mirror.
Toure will play in the Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Wednesday, and may not be back at City's grounds until the day before the league match with Tottenham. The player will need to be assessed before the match to determine if he is fit to play.
October 4, 2014
RotoWire Fantasy Analysis
Toure scored in the 82nd minute of Manchester City's 2-0 win over Aston Villa on Saturday, his first goal of the season.
After scoring 20 goals in Premier League play last season, there was plenty of talk about Toure's struggles this season, as he not only hadn't scored a goal through six matches, but he also hasn't recorded an assist. He's been the priciest midfield option in many salary cap leagues, whether season-long or daily games, but he's the kind of player who can turn it on after one goal.

Caro as a name, not nickname?
My grandmother passed away recently, we were very close and I want to honor her by naming my baby after her in some form. Her name was Carolyn Rose. I love Rose as a middle name, but it's also my sisters middle name and two of my nieces. And-my grandmother didn't actually like her middle name.
I've thought about using the name Caro but people keep telling me it reminds them of Karo Syrup. What do you think? Any other suggestions/variations are appreciated. Thanks!

How do I assess computer Power supplies
Likes # 0
Posted December 6, 2011 at 3:40PM
I am not well informed regarding computer hardware so can anybody enlighten me about power supplies?
My power supply is marked 250volts - 6 amps which I think makes it 1500watts total. I am proposing to fit a new grahics card that requires two 12volt supplies at 38 amps.
How do I assess if that is available from my power supply? Do I simply divide the total wattage by the number of leads assuming each one is 12 volts?
Thanks Baslar

Thanks for your reply.
Ah yes, I can see there is a lot more to this than I first thought. My information regarding my current PSU was also grossly incorrect. I have now discovered that my 1500watts was wildly out and in fact it is 500watts which probably won't be enough for this g/card. I have a vague memory of the fact that AC power is different to DC, and root mean square comes to mind but that's as far as I go.
I have also dicovered that I was wrong about the leads all being 12vdc, some are, some are not. What I need to know is this. This 560Ti g/card comes with two split power connection leads, i.e. two normal power connectors going to a single connector on the g/card. The card requires two of these. Does that mean that the power is split also? 12volts at 38amps twice is the requirement. So does that mean each connector carries 19amps?
By now you are no doubt thinking this guy needs pro help and no doubt you are right!
Cheers, Baslar

It would help if you could post the make of your PSU, but to try and answer your questions. The 500W PSU is more than enough for your 560Ti GPU. If your PSU does not come with 2 PCI-E connectors then you will have to use the twin Molex to PCI-E connector to power your GPU.
But this is not ideal and I would advise upgrading your PSU to one that does come with the necessary connectors so you do not have to resort to the Molex adapters. Something like this. PSU.

Local News
Elderly Inmates Could Get Early Release(Springfield, IL) -- About 800 elderly prisoners could have a shot at getting out early. A new proposal in Springfield suggests that inmates over 50 years old, who've been locked up for more than 25 years, be released. Supporters say the idea is to help cut down on overcrowding in Illinois prisons. Right now the state is holding about 49-thousand inmates but it's only designed to hold 32-thousand.
Opponents of the bill say it's unfair to the victims who were impacted by the inmates' crimes. Some go as far as calling the plan unconstitutional. The proposal has cleared a House committee but faces an uncertain fate when it comes up for debate on the floor.

Many relieved government shutdown has ended
Updated On: Oct 17 2013 11:19:33 PM CDT
After two weeks off it was finally time to get back to work today for furloughed federal workers. But they are not the only ones breathing a sigh of relief.
Whether you were a federal government worker, a visitor to a national park or a woman awaiting approval on a USDA loan, all of the people we spoke with had one thing in common. They were relieved this shutdown was finally over.
"We are just thrilled to be back in business," said Edie Shean with the Hopewell Furnace National Historic Site.
Government employees came back to work Thursday and visitors to many of our national parks were relieved.
"We were very glad that they were open right away. They just signed the agreement and we are happy we can be here," said Hopewell Furnace visitor Jessica Cardwell.
The shutdown also affected others like Kelly Brown, whose USDA loan was stopped dead in its tracks, putting her at risk of losing out on her dream home in Boyertown. But once the shutdown ended, she was back to packing, hoping she will still be able to close on her house next week.
"I am just really relieved and excited now. I am looking forward to moving," said Kelly Brown.
But members of the public still tell us their happiness has not made them forget the impacts this shutdown has had the past two weeks.
"I still feel frustrated that this happened with the government. I am relieved that it is over. I certainly hope that it does not ever happen again because it was a very negative thing for our country," said Brown.
"It is unfortunate that some politicians think that is a good idea to do things like that. It is obviously not a good idea and I hope this is the end of those kinds of tactics," said Delaware Water Gap visitor James Langan.
Despite President Obama saying this will not happen again when the deal expires on January 15th, the people we spoke say they feel our legislators kicked the can down the road so to speak and this will become a reoccurring issue.

Hi: 7° Lo:1°
By Tristan Harris Thursday 24 April 2014 Updated: 02/05 12:52
YOUNGSTERS with physical and learning disabilities now have more to do after a link-up between Imagination Street and Bromsgrove's Chadsgrove School.
New 'Fun for All' groups take place at Imagination Street in Redditch from 9am on Saturdays with the Bromsgrove sessions being held from 11am to 12midday on Mondays.
They are aimed at providing children with disabilities the chance to enjoy the fun and development benefits of the two soft play centres.
There will also be a trained play physiotherapist at both of the sessions to ensure children taking part make the most of the variety of activities available and to help the youngsters' parents on how to assist them.
Liz Morgan, from Chadsgrove School, said she was a great believer in the physical and mental benefits of play for all children, especially those with disabilities.
"We hope the scheme will be the beginning of a more structured relationship between Imagination Street and the local children who have disabilities," she added.
Imagination Street has previously hosted groups of children from Chadsgrove and it has also raised funds for a school in the slums of Nairobi in Kenya, which houses more than 900 children - many who are orphaned due to the AIDS epidemic.
Admission is £3 which can be paid on the door - there is no need to book.

WC50 are being delivered around the world as we speak. And while most deliveries go on without a hitch, some are marred by dealers mishandling the initially detailing of the car. The following six (!) videos details the art of fixing that nightmare. Oh and it's also an excuse to look at the most glorious paint ever seen on a new MINI; Connaught Green.

- Unique Mexican restaurantPlanolawDined on 11/25/2014I ate lunch with a group here. The food is definitely unique-- sauces and delicious vegetable blends in the soups. My enchilada was in a blue corn tortilla. The entree had black retried beans. It was not very greasy like some Mexican food. The enchiladas were good and the meat was high quality. The only negative was the lack of lunch specials. The only lunch "special" was $12 and the regular prices were higher.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Authentic!OpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/24/2014The most authentic central Mexican cuisine you'll find in Dallas. I use this place for lunch mostly and it's always excellent. When I brought my Mexican friend there he commented that the soup was the closest to his grandmothers that he had ever found!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- very lovelyOpenTable Diner Since 2010Dined on 11/22/2014meso maya is a beautiful restaurant and definitely sets a cool vibe as soon as you walk in. it's much more vibrant and noisy downstairs, but we sat upstairs where it was equally as lovely but much quieter - very nice for our group. our service was good and we very much enjoyed the food. i had the veggie enchiladas which were superb, and i love that it was served with black beans - delicious. we enjoyed the queso blanco beforehand, a great start. everyone liked their drinks, but i just had cerveza. the only negative thing i heard was that my husband's margarita wasn't very flavorful. otherwise, great food and experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- If you're staying in arts district, eat here!BelefronDined on 11/21/2014I was in Dallas for a conference at the Fairmont on North Akard. Other people recommended Meso Maya for Mexican as it's great food and walking distance. We had no problem getting a reservation for 4 on a Friday evening. Food and service were excellent. There's a patio room that seems a little quieter (colleagues with young children were eating there). Highly recommended.I would recommend this to a friend.
- great food, super loudOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 11/19/2014Food was great, so were the Avocado Margaritas! My only complaint was the noise. The place was packed and we had a group of 7, I couldn't hear anything except the two people right next to me, made it hard to have a conversation.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MaggraceDined on 11/18/2014Meso Maya was a great place for a business dinner. The food and service were excellent. The ambiance was perfectSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Had a great meal, Host was excellent, very nice.JenniferDined on 11/17/2014Excellent experience. I suggest additional chicken entrees for dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- good, but not great, this timektk123Dined on 11/15/2014Meso Maya has good food, and the downtown location has really nice ambience. However, one diner's food was lukewarm and the overall experience was not as good as usual.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful experience!kemseDined on 11/14/2014Food exceeded expectations. We were in a hurry and our waiter got us in and out in 20 minutes without compromising food quality. El Fenix is right next door, but this is way better!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- First time's a charm!Welcome65Dined on 11/14/2014Excellent all the way around! Best carne asana I've ever tasted. Chicken enchiladas with mole sauce are excellent as well. Chips, salsa, and guacamole were top notch. Nothing bad to say- can't wait to go back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Lunch at meso mayaOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/14/2014Lunch was great, the food is fantastic. The service is on point. It was loud and quite bustle, but that's to be expected in down town Dallas during lunch hour.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Latin food with a Central American flairGourmandStanVIPDined on 11/13/2014Great Latin food with a Central American flair !Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, friendly service.SpyderDined on 11/8/2014My wife and I came here for a dinner during her business trip. The service was excellent from start to finish. Everyone was smiling and friendly. Our waiter knew the menu well and the carne asada ranks in the top tier that I've ever had. We enjoyed this place and will come back the next time we are in Dallas.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great gourmet mexican foodKarenPlanoDined on 11/8/2014We love Meso Maya. The food has wonderful complex flavors. Not your cheesy tex-mex. We always go before a Stars hockey game. service was a bit slow on our last visit; which is unusual.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WorldTravellingFoodieDined on 11/8/2014My husband and I are total foodies and found this restraunt on multiple food review apps...and the reviews were on point! This restraunt was wonderful, from the chips & hot sauce, to the ceviche (best ceviche we will probably ever have!), to the carne asada - which was cooked medium rare as requested and was to die for!, to the margaritas! The wait staff constantly replaced our chips and hot sauce bowls to the point where we had to tell them to stop because we didn't need any more! They had a Wonderful, attentive wait staff.Overall - this restaurant was outstanding, and a perfect meal before heading to a Stars game, since it's in walking distance. 5 stars!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Busy SpotMommylisDined on 11/7/2014We ate on a busy Friday night - glad I'd made reservations ahead of time. The restaurant is smaller than I expected - cozy and noisy. They had a great patio, but it was too cold that evening for us to want to brave. Their drink menu is interesting and extensive; the dinner menu had a nice mix of traditional and "chef specialty" dishes. I shared an entree with someone, and it was plenty for both. All in all, the food was good, but nothing that I think I'd especially seek out the next time I'm seeking Mexican. The desserts were by far the best thing we had - highly recommend the flan and the pastel de chocolate cake. Also the Mexican coffee was delish with hints of chocolate and cinnamon.Special Features:
- Incredible food and service!CooperDined on 10/25/2014Perfect dinner spot for our family for family weekend at SMU. Easy location to find, complimentary valet parking and outstanding food. We thoroughly enjoyed all of our appetizers and meals. Definitely would highly recommend this restaurant. The food and service are fantastic.Special Features:
- Pre-concert dinnerBrandiDined on 10/25/2014My girlfriends and I met up at Meso Maya downtown for a pre-concert dinner this past Saturday night. The food was AMAZING and the service was really good. There were a few lags where server disappeared for too long and this also happened when I was there a week ago. Felt like both times we were there longer than needed because we were waiting for the waiter to come back for more salsa, more drinks, bring our check etc. All the waiters are very friendly, and the food is always amazing. Just would be nice if the waiters would frequent the table a little more to check and be sure nobody needs anything.Special Features:
- One of my favorites for Mexican!LaurenVIPDined on 10/23/2014The only reason I deducted a star on food was for the "Avocado" margarita. It comes with a slice of pineapple and is served beautifully, however I'm pretty sure my drink was straight pineapple juice. Too sweet!! Aside from this drink, everything else was perfect.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- girls night outBrandiDined on 10/22/2014I had girlfriends in town. We had a wonderful dinner on the patio. Only complaint was it was a bit slow from seating us with a reservation, a lot of lag time between drink order, food order and receiving the food. The food however was amazing and our waitress was very sweet. The patio is fabulous! We will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food Good - Service Not GoodRickCDined on 10/21/2014As always, the food was very good but the service left a lot to be desired. It took a full 5 minutes to get a drink order in, a couple more for chips and salsa, etc. the fact that we had to ask if there was somebody waiting on our table was a bit bothersome. By the time we got finished, at least 4 different people had taken our order and brought the food and drinks. Not conducive to leaving any tip or even coming back. I will give it one more try to see if service is that bad all the time.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- So So TexMexNorthDallasDined on 10/18/2014The service was great. No rush. Allowed us time to talk and enjoy ourselves. The real issue was the food quality and of course the cost for that quality. Queso dip was a little runny. When we were served the food was not very warm. In fact, before we finished the food was actually cold. We like our food spicy and everything was rather bland. Overall, we are unlikely to return or bring guests there in the future.

- Always pleased1ofthegirlsDined on 10/11/2014Our waitress was very attentive and did very well in accomodating to our toddler. Unfortunately her recommendation for a child's food did not work out, but we feel it was more the fault of not requesting the fried bananas to be not so fried. Softer.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Perfect after the showWink0711Dined on 9/28/2014We had a delicious dinner, two of chef Nico's specialties: Kobe beef perfectly prepared for my husband and tender, juicy short ribs accompanied by a mildly spicy cheese poblano chili for me. Mango tea was slightly sweet and refreshing. This is my second visit and I really enjoyed the quieter Sunday evening atmosphere to savor a memorable meal.Special Features:
- Great FoodOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/27/2014Visited earlier in the evening to avoid the late night loud crowds. We were seated outside. Unfortunately the table was right near a nasty smelling drain, so we asked to be moved. The waitress eagerly seated us elsewhere and the staff was seen attending to the smelly drain. Keep that in mind if you are seated outside. Service was good and attentive. Food was very good. Cocktails very good. Bit pricy. Definitely make reservations if you plan on going after 7 pm. The place was extremely loud and crowded as we were leaving. We'll definitely be back.Special Features:
- Good meal, good timeMealsAndDealsDined on 9/26/2014I've been here for lunch a few times, but this was the first time I've gone for dinner. The lighting was pretty dim but the food was consistently good and moderately priced. It gets pretty lively at night, especially in the bar area. It's a totally different atmosphere.Special Features:

Griffith Maloney [Film Festival 10.18.12] drama adventure
No more ratings!
The Life of Pi is a film about stories. It's own premise sounds like a late night bar conversation, What if you were stuck in a lifeboat with a bengal tiger? How would you make it out alive? Not only does the hero of Life of Pi survive, along the way he discovers some things about himself, God and the nature of stories, not a bad outcome for such a deadly scenario. While somewhat simple and straightforward Life of Pi is an impressive technical achievement and a visual wonder. Moreover its simplicity can be mostly forgiven in light of a few outstanding performances.
Life of Pi is the story of a young boy from India, Piscine Patel, who's family is traveling from India to Canada along with all the animals of their family owned Zoo. A tragic wreck at sea condemns Pi's entire family and the menagerie to a watery grave. Adrift in the ocean Pi survives long enough to make it to a life boat which he soon discovers he shares with a very irate bengal tiger named Richard Parker. Thus begins Pi's 227 days adrift in the Pacific ocean.
I don't envy David Magee the job of adapting Life of Pi to the screen. It is a deeply religious and philosophical book, which is a death-knell for film adaptation. Only the excitement of the boy vs. tiger dynamic could keep this afloat. As a result a lot of the soul searching religious sections of the early book are skewed slightly to comedy in the movie. Long passages of philosophical thought and exploration are cut in favor of exciting sea life and mysterious deserted islands. It's a choice that makes sense for the film but I wish that the adaptation had been just a little bit braver. As it stands Life of Pi doesn't make you think all that deeply, it spends most of its time making you look at the gorgeous scenery lovingly rendered in spectacular 3D.
3D is a hard tool to use effectively so let's just get this out of the way and say that Life of Pi is surprisingly artistic and effective in its use of 3D technology. 3D films fall into the trap of gimmicky scenes far to often. As anyone who's ever seen Ferdinado Baldi's Comin At Ya knows, when you'd got 3D on the table suddenly every little thing is flying explicably towards the camera, as if the audience was made up of a huge pile of magnets. Arrows and spears and falling rocks and everything under the sun is used to "stimulate" the audience experience, which usually means just testing our patience. In Life of Pi 3D is used for two things to make animals appear hyper-realistic and to bring the spectacular water effects to life.
There are many things that are well done in Life of Pi but Ang Lee's greatest technical achievement is the handling of the water. Since Life of Pi takes place in the ocean we're given a magnificent oceanscape. From the tremendous storm that sinks Pi's shipping frigate to the placidly calm reflective water afterwards, every wave and eddy is amazingly realistic and the 3D filming adds a tremendous depth of field to all of the water based scenes. Is it required to see this in 3D? Not at all, the scenes will look gorgeous in good old flat-vision but it is one of the better arguments for 3D use I've seen recently.
Once you're past the deafening beauty of the setting you can concentrate on the tent pole of the entire fable, the performers who embody our young thinker Pi. The bulk of our time is spent with with Suraj Sharma who plays the younger Pi. Sharma is a new find directed with verve and charm by Mr. Lee. It's a difficult part to play, finding the emotions and physicality of a doomed, shipwrecked 16 year old its a tall order. Under the tutelage of Lee Mr. Sharma performs admirably. The older Pi played by Irrfan Khan is the best performance of the film. His emotional range is put to terrific use here and he sells the wise, experienced storyteller perfectly. I would gladly sit and watch any film in which Mr. Khan played a leading role. These two versions of Pi are the strongest portion of the film and they also help to shore up some of the weaker choices.
Gérard Depardieu is bizarrely cast as a complete throwaway role. Appearing once in the entire film to present the ugly face of a racist ships cook. Rafe Spall plays the writer who is interviewing Pi and his performance and presence is so vapid and milquetoast that Mr. Khan might as well be performing to the wall in some scenes. This isn't entirely Mr. Spall's fault, he is horribly miscast. No one would believe that he was an accomplished world traveling author anymore then they would believe that I was a professional linebacker. Originally this role was supposed to be played by Tobey Maguire, which would've been considerably more distracing. Mr. Spall is a step in the right direction but someone with more gravitas and artistic spirit would've been better. It's a testament to Mr. Khan's performance that these scenes go as well as they do.
For all of its grand posturing Life of Pi is unlikely to cause any on the spot religious or philosophical conversions. To much religious musing has been cut from the book for it have any greater meaning. Its movie version runs the safe route through adventure movie territory, telling an entertaining and beautiful story without to much of the complicated "God" stuff. It's fun, gorgeous and not too demanding. It's absolutely worth seeing for the visual effects and the particularly arresting performances of the two Pi's.

Authentic Fire is Dr. Michael Brown's book-length response to John MacArthur's Strange Fire conference. Because of the importance of this debate, TheCripplegate is using every Thursday to respond chapter-by-chapter to Authentic Fire. You can find an overview of this debate, as well as links to the reviews for each chapter by clicking here.
Before I get into things, I'd like to alert all the Cripplegate readers to a serious problem I'm currently facing and I'd like to ask for your prayer: Please read this and this and this and definitely this and take a moment to praise the Lord with me before continuing.
Chapter 9 Summary
1. A God to Be Experienced – Dr. Brown opens the chapter by talking about how God is a god who is not just known, but experienced. He comments on how he encounters God through his written Word and gives the disclaimer "At the same time, God has not called us into a relationship with a Book but into a relationship with Himself, and, as a former cessationist once remarked, the Trinity is not composed of the Father, Son, and Holy Bible but of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit" (Kindle Locations 4106-4108). Dr. Brown then asks the question "are you enjoying real fellowship with God?"
In order to illustrate the dangers of an exclusively intellectual encounter of God, Dr. Brown gives a few quotes from Dan Wallace who says things like "although charismatics have sometimes given a higher priority to experience than to relationship, rationalistic evangelicals have just as frequently given a higher priority to knowledge than to relationship. … This emphasis on knowledge over relationship can produce in us a bibliolatry." (Kindle Locations 4122-4123). Continue Reading…
