This morning… early… he and his pumpkin, affectionately named “Sweetie Pie,” made their way to Altoona for for the PA Giant Pumpkin Growers Assn. weigh-off… driving carefully so as not to crack the showpiece, which would mean elimination.

Did James fly too close to the sun by actually typing the lyrics out on his Instagram story? To some, he definitely did. And these rebuttals, without question, deserve attention and empathy. Every community has stereotypes about which it is rightfully sensitive — the black community included. Yet, within a suggestion that James is in favor of anti-Semitism is the choice to ignore the calls for unity he has made from his platforms for years, and ever more as his societal caché has expanded. James’ history is about inclusion over exclusion — a battle he’s taken to the front door of the Trump White House on more than one occasion. Given the racial climate of the moment, it’s fair to wonder if some (not all) of the reaction to James’ post isn’t more about the power of the man who posted it.

In addition, as James’ political, social and cultural voice has evolved, so too has the backlash. Shortly before the start of the 2017 NBA Finals, James’ Los Angeles’ home was spray-painted with “n—–” across the gate — an act some of James’ detractors pegged a hoax. Earlier this year, President Donald Trump publicly questioned LeBron’s intelligence. There’s Fox Sports analyst Clay Travis, who did the same this week after James’ Instagram story. Conservative media personality/Fox host Laura Ingraham‘s “shut up and dribble” segment is impetus for an entire documentary for James. And there’s Breitbart as well as other conservative pundits who’ve labeled James as divisive. There are well-populated social media hate groups. This is the same kid who spoke to Jay Bilas after his first nationally televised high school game, talking about “no pressure.”

The faultfinding, especially from friends, appears to infuriate Eda, however, who said they are simply doing everything they can to save the family farm. She said Figone recently asked her why the Mullers couldn’t find a way to make money in farming like other locals, to which Eda said she replied, “That’s great, Louie. I guess we are the only losers.”

“You don’t know what you’re going to get until the day before, because whatever he catches, he catches,” Omar tells me, as he carefully cleans live scallops. These were sourced from another purveyor, a fisherman named Laurent, from Northern Brittany, “who scuba-dives to pick them by hand.”

Easily damaged by light frosts in the -2°C to 0°C range. The extent of damage will also be dependent on the duration of the frost, the thickness of the crop canopy and the amount of dew on the plants. A light frost of short duration on a heavy dew filled crop canopy may only penetrate 4 to 8 inches into the soybean canopy. This type of damage will kill the terminal flower bud and any young pods on the top two nodes, but pods from these flowers likely wouldn’t have matured anyway. Frosted leaves and stalks rapidly turn dark green to brown and will not recover. Beans in pods that are still green and soft will shrivel up and will go through the combine at harvest. Beans in pods that have turned yellow will mature normally. Some of the large green beans that make it into your sample will turn yellow after 30 to 40 days in storage.
