You might be surprised by the amount of car-centric infrastructure baked into this mid-sized Midwestern city. That's a lot of concrete baking in the sun.

Further, if Eden Prairie doesn't have an apple orchard, or a reptile shop, it's missing an opportunity.

Looking forward to the Farmers Market stop and the Micro Center (Wooddale Ave.) stop, near the manufacturing home of the Bundt pan. You'd rather not have to drive there if you can help it.

Fuck facebook.

"#Facebook has abruptly banned a #Jewish broadcasting executive in #Minnesota after he posted a link to a video of a 104 year-old #Holocaust survivor in #Texas sharing his story, prompting the Minnesota Attorney General to intervene.

#JoelGlaser, CEO of #AMPERS, a group of community #radio stations across Minnesota, received an email from Facebook last month informing him that his personal account had been suspended because it violated the platform’s “child sexual exploitation” policies.

Because #Glaser also administers the account for an AMPERS radio series titled MN90: Minnesota History in 90 Seconds, Facebook also took down that account, which has more than 10,000 followers.

The video produced by an #NBC affiliate in #Dallas and shared by an #ABC affiliate in the #TwinCities, featured a talk by #WalterLevy, a survivor who fled #Germany in the late 1930s and still tells his story about how his family survived #Kristallnacht..."
