K-State Salina lecture tackling community challenges
People will have the chance to discuss community challenges at Kansas State University Salina's Civic Lecture Series on Feb. 11. K-State Salina's Civic Lecture Series, "The Power of People to Impact the Common Good," will focus on collective action and people-powered organizing according to a community announcement. The lecture will begin at 11:30 a.m. in the K-State Salina College Center Conference Room. The event will feature Ben MacConnell, Great Plains coordinator at the Direct Action and Research Training (DART) Center, who has spent 25 years in the DART network. The discussion will address topics like housing insecurity, health care gaps, substance abuse and over-incarceration. MacConnell believes that change starts with people, not institutions, asserting that solutions to community issues are already present, but public will is lacking. Admission to the event is free, and attendees may bring an outside lunch or purchase a meal from K-State Salina's Centennial Dining. This story was created by reporter Charles Rankin, crankin@salina.com, with the assistance of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Journalists were involved in every step of the information gathering, review, editing and publishing process. Learn more at cm.usatoday.com/ethical-conduct.

That “tableside buffet” — which is “abundant, fast and vaguely miraculous” — can be found at Mizu Sushi, 1320 SW Ashworth Place, said an article published Dec. 24 at onlyinyourstate.com . ”This isn’t a traditional buffet,” the article said. “No steam tables where people hover over half-filled plates, no awkward jostling for the last piece of sushi.” Buffet users never have to stand up Instead, Mizu Sushi customers receive a paper order sheet, check off what they want, hand it to a person and then receive their food, said onlyinyourstate.com. Food options include sushi, sushi rolls, teriyaki, noodles, appetizers and hibachi, the site said. ”You can eat as much as you want without ever standing up or making small talk with the stranger next to you,” it said.
