Here's the moment from Monday's hearing when Butzel-Long's attorney compared striking workers to domestic abusers. This comparison is extremely deplorable and was stricken from the record following our lawyer's objection.

An economist puts my book in the context of the debates among economists & anthropologists: "Where Jared Diamond saw “Guns, Germs, & Steel”, Nelson sees the perhaps somewhat less sexy trinity of mold, futures contracts, & dynamite." (wait, what's sexier than a futures contract?)

Veel graan, bestemd voor de wereldmarkt, komt Oekraïne niet uit. Een voedselcrisis dreigt. Verslaggever @rudybouma ging langs bij de Nederlandse boer Kees Huizinga (@DutchFarmerInUA) in Oekraïne. “Mijn maïs ligt hier in de silo en we kunnen er nergens mee naartoe.” #Nieuwsuur
