After much demand, anticipation, and speculation, Call of Duty Black Ops II finally became available on Xbox One via backwards compatibility on April 1. The story takes place across two separate arcs, one recounting events in the 1. Whilst it continues the saga of certain main characters introduced in the original Black Ops, both arcs take place several decades after the conclusion of the first game. In the year 2. 02. U. S. Special Forces operatives led by David Mason and his partner, Mike Harper, arrive at The Vault, a top security location home to an aging Frank Woods, whom they suspect possess vital information on the whereabouts of Raul Menendez. Woods concedes that Menendez has recently visited him, and shows them a locket that the latter had left behind. Frank then narrates several covert missions undertaken during his military career which span their previous encounters. According to Woods, by 1. Alex Mason had effectively retired from active duty to pursue an obscure existence in Alaska with his son, the seven year old David. Their shaky relationship is strained further when Mason is solicited by his former handler Jason Hudson, seeking to recruit him for an assignment in Cuando Cubango during the height of the Angolan civil and South African Border Wars. Woods had disappeared with his men while aiding Jonas Savimbis UNITA rebels against Angolas Marxist government their actions have already been disavowed by the CIA and Hudson hopes to rescue any survivors. With UNITAs assistance, Mason and Hudson recover Woods from the Cubango, subsequently locating Menendez among a contingent of Cuban military advisers. However, a firefight breaks out, and their quarry escapes as the Americans are rescued by helicopter. It is revealed that Menendez is responsible for holding Woods captive after murdering his team. In light of this information, Mason and Hudson begin tracking Menendez, who has established himself as a primary arms dealer for bush conflicts in Southern Africa and Latin America. Later in the year, the CIA authorizes a strike against the unscrupulous Nicaraguan, now making a healthy profit running arms across Soviet occupied Afghanistan. At this point, Menendezs motive for his seemingly senseless vendetta against the West become clear his beloved sister was grievously injured in an act of arson committed by American businessmen for insurance money. The Menendez clan, which dominates a powerful drug cartel, was again rocked by loss when the CIA sanctions the assassination of Rauls father. An embittered Menendez now considers the conflict to be personal, but his one man struggle against the West is interrupted when Mason, Woods, Hudson, and local security forces raid his headquarters in Nicaragua an enraged Woods inadvertently kills Rauls sister, Josefina with a grenade. Faking his demise with the assistance of Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega, Menendez lives to retaliate against those he holds personally responsible for his sisters death. During the 1. 98. Panama, he kidnaps Hudson and David, using them as bait for a trap. He then uses Hudson to mislead Woods, manipulating him into shooting Mason instead of himself. Depending on the players actions in Afghanistan, it is implied that Menendez had used moles within the CIA. In the ensuing chaos, Menendez kills Hudson and cripples Woods. Unsatisfied with his revenge, Menendez allows Woods and David to live, promising to return to complete his revenge when the time is right. Three decades later, Menendez re emerges as the leader of Cordis Die, a massive populist movement with over a billion followers. He stages a cyberattack that cripples the Chinese Stock Exchange in response, the Chinese ban the export of rare earth elements, fermenting the start of a new Cold War between the Chinese led Strategic Defense Coalition SDC and the U. S. led NATO. Taking advantage of this stand off, Menendez attempts to bring the two powers to a full blown war by inciting conflicts between the two, secretly aiding SDC leader Chairman Tian Zhao, who worked with Mason and Woods during their operation in Afghanistan in 1. Using the intelligence provided by Woods, David, now a Navy SEAL Commander code named Section, leads JSOC forces in the renewed search for Menendez. Shortly after gathering intelligence from Woods, Section and JSOC infiltrates Myanmar investigating a spike in activity in the region. There, Sections team encounters a computer engineer under Menendezs employment, warning them of a cyberattack with a Celerium device, a quantum computer capable of hacking any computer system. Sections team is later deployed in Pakistan, attempting to gather intelligence on Menendezs plots. During the infiltration, Menendez discloses the name of a target, Karma in the Cayman Islands. Section and SEAL operatives Harper and Salazar later infiltrate the Cayman Islands, finding out that Karma is a woman named Chloe Lynch, a former employee of Menendezs shell corporation, Tacitus. Lynch was the main developer of the Celerium device, and as a means of wrapping up loose ends, Menendez had deployed mercenaries for her abduction. JSOC later has a lead on Menendez in Yemen, where JSOC asset Farid infiltrates Menendezs cell to help Section facilitate the leaders capture. The player, as Farid, has a choice during the mission. Menendez, suspecting Farids disloyalty, orders him to shoot the captured Harper. If the player chooses not to shoot Harper, and instead attempts to shoot Menendez, he fails, but Harper survives and is rescued. If the player chooses to shoot Harper, Farid survives, and Harper is not present in any conversations or missions thereafter. Menendez is successfully captured, but this was a ruse for Menendez to hack into the U. Red River Farm Network. Farmers Should Pay Attention to Trade Talks.

American Farm Bureau Federation Director of Market Intelligence John Newton says the uncertain trade environment is challenging for agriculture. No one in the industry wants to see NAFTA go away. Its very serious. We export about 2. Ninety six percent of the worlds population lives outside of our border. Our farmers and ranchers are communicating with a louder voice. The well being of farmers and ranchers is critical and we get that with access to foreign markets. Finishing Up With Corn. North Dakota and Minnesota farmers are in the final stages of corn harvest. Thunder Seed District Sales Manager Derek Haug says the vast majority of farmers in his territory are either finished or will finish harvesting soon. Out west past Bismarck, farmers are still working on corn and sunflowers. Fertilizer application is also mostly done, so just finishing up bits and peices and starting to think about next year. For many, the main concern with this years corn crop has been stalk integrity. Haug says the corn stalk weakens the longer it stands into the harvest season.

Approximately 2. 0 percent wont see the spring cycle. Kohl says farmers showing some resiliency have to devise a game plan. Some farmers overpaid for marginal land and marginal type of assets. Dropping some of those assets and restructuring the operation may work, but they have to plan, execute and monitor. Only 3. 0 to 4. 0 percent can do it. Ag Bankers Seek FSA Program Changes.

Based in South Dakota, First Dakota National Banks Nate Franzen says land values vary by region and the Midwest is an area of concern. In other areas of the country, land values are a little more stable and stronger. However, the concentration is on depressed grain prices and a higher concentration of grain farmers. Land values in the Midwest havent fallen dramatically. In part, thats because despite higher levels of financial stress, farmers are reluctant to sell. Selling land just to reduce debt is appropriate in some cases. Thats hard for a farmer to do, but with todays land values we dont known if that window is closing or not. We bankers believe farmers need to be adjusting aggresively to remain profitable. Dry Bean Scene. The Dry Bean Scene airs Fridays at 1. PM on the Red River Farm Network.
