Remember when bank robbers just took the money?

Once upon a time, a robber would walk up to a teller, hand over a threatening note, and flee with the contents of the teller's drawer or - in extreme cases - the loot stored in the vault. With the public's increasingly widespread use of ATM machines, some thieves have taken to hanging around the machines and robbing patrons after they withdrew their cash. With the implementation of security cameras and exploding dye packs - not to mention the increase in the number of citizens packing weapons, criminals have chosen a seemingly less risky method: stealing the "bank" itself.

Soccer mom hits the mean streets (and the ‘burbs)

It was bad enough when you had to worry about rough-looking thugs wandering around in your neighborhood (your next-door neighbor's dropout son notwithstanding). Nowadays, it seems you have to be suspicious of everybody; even the June Cleaver types are turning to crime.

Mother Nature Serenades Atlanta... Again

Congratulations, Atlanta! If you enjoyed the little "sprinkle" we got yesterday afternoon, you were probably ecstatic about today's afternoon drive time, because it looks like a repeat of yesterday's deluge. Commuters have the not-so-rare opportunity to observe rivers where streets used to be, and for those who are fans of light shows, yesterday's staccato lightning strikes (over 1,000 in a single 15-minute period, according to Channel 2 Chief Meteorologist Glenn Burns), similar festivities are likely to occur this afternoon and into the evening.

Perhaps it's because that Top Ten list is of cities with the highest number of foreclosures in the country. The statistics, gathered by California-based realty marketing firm RealtyTrac, indicate that as of the second quarter 2010, Georgia had the sixth highest number of foreclosures in the US (71,949, up over 27% compared to the same period last year). Metropolitan Atlanta wasn't far behind, boasting the seventh highest number of foreclosures (52,381, up over 8% compared to the same period last year).

Georgia Farmers Turn to Hydroponics to Produce Feed for Livestock
Small Business
Written by Mack Hayden   
Tuesday, 27 July 2010 13:17
The Fodder system is a hydroponic (soil-free) growing room that has been specifically developed to sprout grain and legume seeds for highly nutritious yet cost-effective livestock feed and other fresh produce. Fodder's technology allows fresh feed and produce to be grown anywhere quickly; a thousand pounds of barley, wheat or corn grows into eight thousand pounds of feed in only six days. According to the manufacturers, farmers will not only save money on feed costs but will also have healthier animals because of the raw nutrients and increased hydration. The "sprout mat" is edible, and the animals eat the entire mat, as well as the greens and the roots.
