Welcome to the first installment of "Across the Pond," where I will spend this semester looking at sports, London style. It seems that many things become lost in translation as one goes from American English to British English. For example, cookies are called biscuits, Three Musketeers bars are actually what we call Milky Ways and, something we are all familiar with, unlike Americans the English drive on the "wrong" side of the road.

This year, a bill will pass that affects the food we eat, the people who grow it and the impact this food has around the world. Each year, U.S. taxpayers spend $20 billion to subsidize 25 percent of the nation's commodity farmers who grow crops such as corn, wheat and soybeans. The vast majority of government payments go to large agribusinesses because subsidies are tied to the quantity of production. Farmers growing vegetables and fruits are left with virtually no support.
