• Are you an amateur photographer? SEMO.net is building a team of photographers for a project we are working on. We are not looking for professional photographers with side businesses, we are talking about amateurs who love photography and enjoy trying to catch that perfect shot and would love to have their work appear online for the area to see. If you are interested then please contact me at brian@semo.net and send me links to some of your favorite shots. Don't overwhelm me with 50, narrow it down to less than 10 photos. It's okay if you just send me one or two. Just so it allows me to see how good you are with a camera.

The following Wednesday, May 28, still no results. It's now been 16 days since the question was asked and 10 days since the poll question was removed from their

  • Poplar Bluff, MO — For weeks both Topix and Facebook have had a frenzy of posts regarding how citizens "should go down to City Hall and support Doug Bagby at the next meeting!" But at last night's City Council meeting only Dan Coffman spoke during the citizen input. For the most part Mr. Coffman parroted the DAR's talking points and challenged the council regarding their recent actions. The council respectfully answered all of the inquiries and the meeting moved on without incident. It has been rumored for over a month that those claiming to have been marginalized or disenfranchised by the actions of the current council are attempting a recall of Mayor Pearson and Johnny Brannum.

But the second method provides you with a snapshot view of whether your sale provided cashflow to your bottom line. In the comments after my post, you will see that Matt Funke does not approve of the second method in this case because one of the
