Record Low Temperatures Affecting Fruit Trees in Michigan

Record Low Temperatures Affecting Fruit Trees in Michigan

This year’s winter has been one full of record lows all over the United States. Michigan is no exception to the harsh weather that the winter has swept the country with and now, the Michigan Farm Bureau is reporting that fruit farmers have noticed damage from the cold and heavy snow. Michigan is the “national center for tart cherry production” which worries many farmers. Heavy snowfall can be good because it protects the ground but its weight can also damage lower branches, causing a halt in the state’s overall cherry production.

The harsh temperatures have also affected wine grape vines and other fruit plants but the full extent of the damage won’t be clear until after the spring frost rolls through. This situation also happened in 2012 but then, most of the cherry and apple crops were destroyed. Farmers have hope that the sun and wind will help the crops get back to normal.

Drunk Driver Stopped At Police Station to Use the Restroom

Drunk Driver Stopped At Police Station to Use the Restroom

ऀA Pittsfield Township man was intoxicated when he drove to a police station near Ann Arbor, Michigan to use the bathroom. The 66 year old man walked into the Department of Public Safety Building around 6:30 in the afternoon when a firefighter noticed the man looked drunk. Eventually, officers were called to the scene to give the man a field sobriety test which proved that he was above the legal limit for driving. The man was sent to jail and arrested for driving under the influence. 

ऀDriving under the influence is a serious offense. It messes with concentration, motor skills, common sense and a concern for general safety for everyone on the road. Alcohol and drugs affect a person’s judgment and even one drink can impair someone’s driving ability.

Candy Crush Saga Now Available In The Stock Market

Candy Crush Saga Now Available In The Stock Market

Since its release in 2012, Candy Crush Saga has swept the world. In 2013 it topped Farmville 2 as the most successfully popular game on Facebook. The average amount of users per month are around 46 million. The object of the game is to swap the position of two adjacent candies to create a set of three or more so that they disappear. The objectives vary from level to level, some require you to finish within a certain number of tries and others have a time limit.

The game is intense, fun and most of all addicting. This month a new development has been released that could determine the fate of this growing company. Candy Crush Saga was listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker “KING” (the parent company to Candy Crush Saga) selling 22.2 million shares for $22.50 a share. Unfortunately, a day later, the company dropped 16%. Now, analysts are comparing this move and its outcome to the makers of Farmville and Words with Friends who are now worth half their float price in 2011. Only time will tell whether or not Candy Crush Saga will endure the same fate as it’s fellow originally Facebook based apps but one thing is for sure: people won’t stop playing anytime soon.
