There's been a whole lotta shakin' goin' on in Northwest Georgia over the past 30 days. And, yes, some of it likely has been in the barn. A total of six earthquakes have been recorded in the northernwestern portion of the state over the past 30 days, according to data from the US Geological Survey (USGS).

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Many believe the cryptid Ozark Howler is simply a folk monster like Momo. The Ozark Howler has been brought forward in oral traditions as a creature of the Ozark Mountains. The Ozark Mountains span parts of Missouri and Arkansas and have been home to this legendary creature that has captured the imagination of many. This elusive animal has been described as a large, black, and shaggy creature. Some say it looks like a very large cat. It's also been reported in numerous sightings, stories of which have been passed down through generations. Many wonder if the Ozark Howler is a real creature or simply a myth.

Incumbent Georgia District 1 Sen. Ben Watson is returning to the capitol. The four-term senator from Isle of Hope handily defeated activist and first-time political candidate Beth Majeroni in a contest over whose brand of conservative politics had more appeal among Republican primary voters in District 1.

Georgia voters kicked out incumbents, picked replacements for departing legislators and set the stage for June runoffs as well as the big show in November. Ballot casters up and down the Peach State made choices Tuesday that are already set to reshape the state Legislature, which could have an even greater effect on the average Georgian than who sits in the White House this time next year.

By the end of the year, the owners of Kentucky Speedway will have paid Gallatin County more than $900,000 for tickets never sold to races never run. NASCAR abandoned the racetrack following the 2020 Quaker State 400, but a 20-year PILOT agreement (Payments In Lieu Of Taxes) obligates Speedway Motorsports Inc. to two annual payments through 2031: a $180,000 lump sum and a $1 per ticket fee with a $230,000 minimum, even if the venue remains vacant.

Rax hasn't been in Missouri for a long time. As Rax fizzled out of your community, it was probably converted into an Arby's or Fazoli's. Today, there are only a handful open in Illinois, Kentucky, and Ohio. It also doesn't appear that Rax has an official website any longer. The specialty, of course, was that roast beef sandwich. By the way, Arby's continues to do well.

This may come as a surprise to many Americans. Not one single Baptist in this country belongs to the Southern Baptist Convention (SBC). There is much publicity these days about the pronouncements of that organization, making it appear that it stands for and speaks on behalf of all southern Baptists.

Opinion – Bill Cunningham: SBC is an antiquated organization that no longer represents Baptist faith
