Secretary Lucas Lentsch
speaks at Aberdeen
Farmers’ Market
PIERRE, S.D. - South Dakota Secretary of Agriculture Lucas
Lentsch spoke to producers and consumers at the Aberdeen
Farmer’s Market on Thursday afternoon about the importance of local foods and the impact farmers’ markets have on
South Dakota agriculture.
“Farmers’ markets are the most important outlet for our
specialty crop producers in state” said Lentsch. “They provide an important marketing location for consumers to know
their farmer and know their food. We hope the number of
specialty producers continues to grow with thriving farmers’
markets for producers to sell their products. Farmers’ Markets can be a great way to feed consumers’ growing interest
in where their food comes from, especially as more people
are further removed from agriculture than ever before.”
The South Dakota Department of Agriculture (SDDA)
awards Farmers’ Market Grower Grants annually to farmers’
markets across the state. In 2015, SDDA was able to award
grants to 12 farmers’ markets. The grants are funded through
the Specialty Crop Block Grant provided by the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Marketing Service.
Farmers’ Market Grower Grants provide funds to many
small markets which have few other funding sources available. These grants help farmers’ markets increase their visibility and availability in towns across the state, particularly
our smaller communities. Kelsea Sutton of the Burke Farmers’
Market stressed the value of these grants, “Over the past
four years, the Burke Area Farmers Market has become an
important part of the growing local food economy in Gregory
County, as well as a treasured weekly public event for our
community members. Without the Farmers Market Grower
Grant, our Market would not have been able to sustain itself
in order to grow and develop into the crucial part of the ag
and social community that it has today.”
Farmers’ markets are on the rise across South Dakota with
new markets opening each year in towns of all sizes. South
Dakota has more than 60 farmers’ markets, and the South Dakota Department of Agriculture (SDDA) encourages residents
to buy local produce from those outlets. To find a farmers’
market in your area, visit the USDA Rural Development’s at
http://search.ams.usda.gov/farmersmarkets/.
Agriculture is South Dakota’s No. 1 industry, generating
$25.6 billion in annual economic activity and employing over
115,000 South Dakotans. The South Dakota Department of
Agriculture’s mission is to promote, protect, preserve and
improve this industry for today and tomorrow.

‘Terminator Genisys’
Schwarzenegger Recalls
Getting Iconic Role
BY RICK BENTLEY
© 2015, The Fresno Bee
LOS ANGELES — The plot
of “Terminator Genisys,” the
latest in the dystopian series
about man vs. machine, suggests history can be changed
with a tweak of the timeline.
If James Cameron hadn’t
been so insistent in 1984 that
Arnold Schwarzenegger was
the perfect person to star as
the killing machine in “The
Terminator,” the franchise
would have had a very different look.
When Schwarzenegger
met with Cameron to discuss
the low-budget sci-fi film, the
actor wanted to play Kyle
Reese. He’s the good guy human sent from the future to
protect Sarah Connor. While
doing that, Reese ends up
fathering the man who sent
him back through time.
“As far as I knew, O.J.
Simpson was going to play
the Terminator. When I met
with James Cameron I started
talking more and more about
the Terminator. How he has
to train and prepare for this
part. How he has to act like
a machine,” Schwarzenegger
says. “The whole lunch went
like that. James Cameron
asked me, ‘So, why do you
want to play Reese?’”
Schwarzenegger wanted
the role of the hero. The
future California governor
believed that he had his film
career heading in the right
direction having played the
heroic Conan in two successful feature films. There was
no way that he wanted to go
back to being the bad guy.
He also didn’t like that the
Terminator only had 27 lines.
“I liked Kyle Reese, who

said a lot. But, (Cameron)
said the most memorable
character will be the Terminator. He said I should be the
Terminator and that he would
make sure that I didn’t have
to think about the villains aspect,” Schwarzenegger says.
Cameron talked
Schwarzenegger into playing the Terminator. Michael
Biehn ended up playing Reese
and Simpson went on to a different kind of notoriety.
The decision proved
to be one of the biggest in
Schwarzenegger’s career.
The film not only was a hit
at the box office, taking in
more than $38 million, “The
Terminator” became one of
the most iconic characters in
film history.
By the second movie,
1991’s “Terminator 2: Judgment Day,” Schwarzenegger’s
character had been re-programmed to be a protector
and he got to play the good
guy. The character often gets

described as one of film’s
greatest heroes and greatest
villains. The American Film
Institute listed The Terminator at No. 22 on its list of Top
50 film villains and No. 48
among movie heroes.
It’s been a dozen years
since Schwarzenegger last
played the character in
“Terminator 3: Rise of the
Machines.” He said he was
willing to slip back into the
role he originated more than
three decades ago for “Terminator Genisys” because of the
writing.
“There are some people
who are capable of making a
sequel more special that the
original. James Cameron outdid himself with the sequel
and it became the highest
grossing movie in 1991,”
Schwarzenegger says.
“This time, (‘Genisys’
director) Alan Taylor, the
writers and producers have
done an extraordinary job
that really lives up to the
standard of the ‘Terminator
2’ event.”
His version of the T-800
(Model 101) has dramatically
changed since the first movie. In the original, the sole
motivation of the character
was to kill Sarah Connor
(Linda Hamilton) as a way
of protecting the machines
of the future. In “Genisys,”
the T-800 has become a fillin father for Sarah Connor
(Emilia Clarke).
Schwarzenegger sees the
character as being far more
colorful.
There is more than one
version of the character to
play: a very young version
and a far more mature edition. In one scene, the old
and new T-800 end up in
a fight that took a year of
special effects to create.
Schwarzenegger praises
the body double who helped
create the fight scene.
“After three or four days
of doing this fight scenes
and doing all these crazy
stunts, I was always wondering how they were gong to
do the face replacement,”
Schwarzenegger says. “When
I finally saw it, the technology is so advanced, you can
do so much. It looks like two
Arnolds fighting.”
A lot has happened for
Schwarzenegger — professionally, politically, personally — since he took Cameron’s advice for the 1984 film.
If he could time travel like
the characters in the movie,
Schwarzenegger wouldn’t
waste time hoping back to
1984. He would go back in
time to the early days of the
pyramids.
As for changing anything
that’s gone on in his life,
Schwarzenegger says: “I am
perfectly fine with my life. I
am very happy and want to
keep it that way.”
