  On May 9, 2021 a sergeant with the University City, Missouri Police Dept. detained and demanded the identification of a man after receiving a middle-finger salute. Sgt. Larry Becton approached the man and accused him of "aimlessly walking around" and insisted that he provide ID. "Do you live over here," Becton asked. "It's not an option. Right now you're being detained ... for suspicious activity," the officer said. "I will take you to the station and get your ID," Becton repeated. The suspect, who asked to remain anonymous, asked,  "Is this because I flicked you off?" As Becton demanded the man stand up, presenting his handcuffs, said, "I'm going to put you in handcuffs right now. Go ahead and resist if you want to."

The Invisible Orchestra: From Farm to Feast

Modern dining, despite its seemingly simple act of consumption, is a carefully orchestrated performance. It involves a complex network of people, from the farmer nurturing the soil to the delivery driver ensuring the meal arrives piping hot. This intricate dance, often invisible to the diner, highlights the value we often take for granted in a convenient, prepared meal. The "farm to table" movement emphasizes the journey food takes before reaching our plates. Farmers cultivate crops, raise livestock, and ensure responsible practices throughout the process. Processors clean, package, and distribute the ingredients. Chefs, with their creativity and skill, transform these elements into delicious dishes. Restaurants, with their carefully trained staff, provide a seamless dining experience. While delivery services offer undeniable convenience, the logistics behind them are impressive. They act as conductors, coordinating with farms, restaurants, and delivery drivers to ensure a sm...
