		<description><![CDATA[I won’t be able to make the screening of “Dirt! The Movie,” at 7 p.m. Monday, May 24, but I hope you and lots of other people do. Films for Action and Local Burger are presenting the movie and a follow-up panel to discuss the film. Our hat is off to both Films for Action [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If you missed it in the theaters, on video and last week on PBS, you still can see Food Inc. this week on KTWU, Channel 11, in Topeka, and you’ll get a Kansas perspective, too. The Oscar-nominated movie is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Wednesday, May 5, on KTWU. Even if you have seen the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A bill in the Kansas Legislature to levy a tax on sugary soft drinks sounds like a win-win deal to me. Not only would the proposal, Kansas Senate Bill 567, somewhat sweeten the state’s pitiful coffers up front, but the proposal also has the potential to reduce soft drink consumption a tad and thereby health-care [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So have you been following the great food safety legislation debate? (Specifically, HR 2749; see GovTrack.us.) My guess is probably not, because it’s darned hard to follow. I hope you nevertheless will let your lawmakers know that food safety is a big deal that they need to work on. Should they support this bill? Hmm. [...]]]></description>

I didn’t when I saw it yesterday. Still, I came away impressed, as Food Inc. ladles out the bad food news—the illnesses, the abuses, the power—making it more powerful [...]]]></description>

Farm country wasn&#8217;t at the top of the list of screening locations. The movie&#8217;s in the area now, though. You can see it at the Tivoli in Kansas [...]]]></description>
