...hard to start big, which is why agriculture has the kind of demographics that cancels sitcoms: only 6% of farmers are younger than 35, while 26% are over 65. "It's damn near impossible to get started today," Craig Ebberson says during a tour of the endless rows of corn and soybeans he farms with his sons near Randolph, Neb. "Farms are getting bigger and more efficient, and that's not going to stop." The Environmental Working Group's farm-subsidy database shows that Ebbersons in the area collected $3 million in crop aid over the past decade. Craig used...
...Even on a purely commercial level, endless neon Maos or identical riffs on the Ramayana will only saturate the market and, in the end, make artists' works less valuable. So, too, will a reluctance to explore different artistic avenues; imagine if Picasso spent his entire career in his Blue Period. Art critics worry that the current buying boom will only lead to creative stagnation - and that everyone from the artists to national governments are being blinded by money.

...occasional frivolous purchase is the price we have to pay for the most responsive and accommodating of all campus institutions. Execution can miss the mark: brain-break offerings don’t put a dent in late-night hunger, and the “ethnic”-ness of endless grilled-chicken riffs is debatable. But HUDS’ efforts to invite—and respond to—student feedback are remarkable: take cage-free eggs and fair trade bananas, for example—and the mere fact that brain break exists. They even wash and replace our mugs...
...prevent even the most gifted players from showing more than a fraction of what they can do. No longer a showcase for sweeping back-line play, creativity or deft passing and handling, the game has become maddeningly disjointed and dull. And except for those fans who are satisfied with endless collisions and messy contests for the ball, everyone knows...
