Sunday, March 17, 2013
ROLLINSFORD — Saturday's town meeting drew in a crowd to review the annual town report and vote on warrant articles in the grade school auditorium.
A budget recommended warrant article that passed with no discussion involved $1,406,129 for general municipal operations. Prior to the meeting's adjournment, a public comment was made for the town clerk, Cherrise Baker, to receive a raise by $1. Michael Rollo rejected the idea, on behalf of what the previous budget committee had decided on for employee and town officials pay. "No elected official have received a raise this year," Michael Rollo said. Before making a final motion to adjourn Caouette commented he had concerns due to the lack of volunteers at the town election on Tuesday. "Some of us were here till 1 a.m., hand counting. There were minimal volunteers. Every year it gets worse and worse," he said. Baker then stood up thanking those whom volunteered. " I appreciate all the volunteers. I know some work multiple jobs and have families. I know many of us have busy lives; I thank you all," she said.

TILTING AND DIVE FOR SPLASH WIN FAVOR AT THE BOOBY MEET The competition at the Booby Swim- ming Meet, held on Friday evening, was so close that the winners of the various events were not announced, except in one or two instances, when gold and silver swimming medals or Iron crosses were given. Parisian models were sacrificed to the ideal of "Safety First" by the many contestants who entered the clothes race. C. Kellen and M. Scattergood challenged all comers to tilting combats, mounted on fiery steeds, the water polo goals. Other events were the Egg Race, the Three- legged and the Obstacle Race. First place in the dive for splash was won by the youngest contestants. L. Rich- ardson and A. Thorndike. Nadiva. half- fish, half-woman (H. Wilson), astonished all spectators by swallowing a banana under water, but her attempt to swallow a bottle of grape juice failed on account of her miscalculation of the laws of at- mospheric pressure. "The Passing Show of 1917". in which 1916 drowned Dan Maginty. the red mas- cot, took the Juniors so much by surprise that they did not at first realize the tragedy. The meet closed with a tug-of- war, in which the award was to 1916 and 1918, but E. Houghton, as "judge of the tug for distance", was thought by some to be not an impartial judge. President Thomas spoke in Chapel on February 22nd on Dean Reilly's resigna- tion, which is to go into effect this spring, and the appointment of Dr. Schenck in her place. She said in part: "I asked you to come together to-day because of an announcement, which I make with the very greatest regret, a re- gret which, I am sure, will be shared by every student in the College. Dean Rellly has decided that she does not care enough for executive work to wish to continue permanently to* perform the duties of Dean of Bryn Mawr College and has asked that her resignation be accepted, to take effect at the end of this College year. The Directors have acted on Miss Reilly's request with sincere reluctance. In 1913 Dean Rellly told me that she had reached this decision, but as I was in great per- sonal trouble at that time she generously consented to delay her resignation. Throughout these three years I have been hoping that she would change her mind. I am sure it is unnecessary for me to tell you how faithfully and how successfully Dean Rellly has carried on the work of her office. During her eiRht years as Dean she has also Interested herself in various great causes outside the College, such as secondary education, woman suf- frage, the effective organization of the College women of the 1'nited States, etc.. and has worked on many important com- mittees. She has spoken at many pre- paratory schools and has represented the College on many educational occasions. She has made the position of Dean of Bryn Mawr College a very important edu- cational position, recognized as such everywhere. We owe her a great debt of gratitude for this as well as for her ad- mirable work in the College. "It seem..,] to the Directors that a Bryn Mawr graduate could best succeed Dean Keilly and best advise Bryn Mawr under- graduates as to their courses of study; but nevertheless a very careful study has been made of all the women now holding prominent educational positions and, I am happy to say, there are a great many It'tiithrnttil m, I'ui/i J PERFECTION IS GOAL, SAYS MR. VAN ALLEN NEW COMMITTEES FOR UNDERGRAD. The Reverend William van Allen, of the Church of the Advent, Boston, con- ducted the service In the Chapel Sunday night. In his sermon he dealt with the question of the connection between this life and immortality. "I think", he said, "there comes to us all, early or late, a definite day when the question rises be- fore us. What is the end of our life? . . We must know something of what- is beyond if we are to have a hope which is a real help. But", asks Mr. van Allen, "is" there something beyond? And how is it possible to know what It Is? Can we see what Is the order by which we direct our activities towards that end?" He turns for his answer to the Epistle of Saint John. " "Now are we sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be. But we know that when He shall ap- pear, we shall be like Him. for we shall see Him as He Is'. With this clue", goes on Dr. van Allen, "we see the earth as a training school of men who are to be made the archtype of God..... And there opens up a long vision of in- finite service to God, over God's universe at God's bidding, by those who have been fitted for that service". "By perfecting ourselves in habits of thoughts and words, through the disen- chantments and trials, with our faces to- wards Him. we can gradually make our- selves more like Him, and, in consumma- tion, we shall be altogether like Him when we see Him face to face". June, 1917, Tentative Date for Garrett Memorial At a meeting of the Undergraduate As- sociation on Thursday evening, February 17th, two new committees were voted, one to collect the money for the Garrett Me- morial, and one to investigate the price of food, of wages, and of the general cost of upkeep of the Ten House. No definite date has yet been set for the completion of the memorial, but the \iumine have set as a tentative date. June, 1917'. They therefore wish to have an undergraduate committee to co-operate with them in raising the funds necessary. The Undergraduate Board was empow- ered to appoint a committee of five mem- bers, two Senior members and one mem- ber from each of the other classes. A motion was put and passed that the (lass giving a play need not pay admis- sion for the class for whom the play Is given, as long as the present system of Red Cross continues. NOTED HISTORIAN, DR.

This collection includes among others several Devonian fishes and ostraco- derms from the Old Red Sandstone of Scotland; two skulls of Mesohlppus, an ancestral horse, a skull of Elotherium, a giant pig-like animal, the lower jaw of Titanotherium, a skull and a lower jaw of Rhinoceros, and an Oreodon skull, all from the bad lands of South Dakota and western Nebraska; a skull and a lower jaw of Ursus speleus. the giant care bear which was contemporaneous with the men of the early stone age In southern Europe; a skull and a paddle of Ichthyo- saurus, the great fish-like lizard of the Mesozolc; also several molar teeth of Mastodons and mammoths from the late oiolc deposits of North America. On Monday evening, February 21st. the Philosophy Club held a business meeting ! in Pembroke West sitting-room, to dis- j cuss plans for conducting the club. Last j year it was found that having monthly or I bi-monthly meetings to discuss some new book or current problem was not prac- tical when so much else was going on. It ! was decided to carry on the club as It [ was started this year, to have meetings only when some professor, either from the Bryn Mawr faculty or from outside, was to read a paper. The meeting was badly attended, al- though It was posted four days in ad- vance, only twelve out of a possible forty being present. Dr. i harles Downer Hazen, the author , of "Europe Since 1815", will speak to the History Club on March 17th. The meet- ing will be an open one. but the reception afterwards will be by invitation. The History Club is also having informal meetings this year at which only ill" members of the Club and the members of the faculty teaching History or Polities and Economics are present. A recent change in the Club's consti- i lion has limited the entrance require- ment to those majoring in Modern His- tory, combined with either Politics ami Ki onomlcs or History of Art or a modern language or Philosophy, and getting two semesters of Credit or one semester of High Credit in their History. Formerly it was possible to be eligible to the Club by getting the Credits or the High Credit In the second major, a language, for In- stance, instead of In History. 68 front: HELPS TO 24 PAGE ESSAY MRS.

Mrs. Wheeler has had the personal help, advice and criticism of Professor Murray, who has said of her that he knows of no one who has a more complete understanding of, the plays and the mind of the Greek author. Fiction Library Will Lend Full Sets of Works The fiction library will allow those who are writing their twenty-four page essays to take out the entire works of the author on whom they are writing, and to keep them till the paper is due. The library has full sets of most of the stand- ard authors and will purchase any others within reason. It is advisable to come early and make arrangements with the librarian as only in a very few cases is there more than one set of an author. Last year many students found this priv- ilege of great advantage.

That's the query uttered this summer by the Mountaintop Historical Society in Haines Falls, N.Y., a question I'm sure has been issued in locations nationwide at one time or another. Haines Falls was once a stop on the Ulster & Delaware Railroad, where trains delivered summertime crowds escaping the heat and humidity of coastal cities to the Catskill Mountains, long before "Borscht Belt" became an alliterative cliché.
The trains and tracks were lost long ago, even before the post-World War II near-wholesale dismantling of U.S. rail infrastructure. Haines Falls Station remains, an outlier and orphan of a century past, preserved by the Society amid second-growth forest that makes the station itself seem misplaced, moved from some other, better location on someone's lifesized basement trainset board.
The station's protectors marked its 100th birthday May 18, highlighted by the spiking of 132 feet of rail on the original cinder roadbed in front of the station (photo above). The roadbed had been excavated and ties laid out last fall, with the rail run out and bolted last April. Spiking was done in less than four hours by a crew of 16 inexperienced but altogether earnest volunteers under the direction of George Cook, a retired railroader, with leveling and ballasting to follow.
It's a nice local story, one I note because it's "local" to me (I frequent the turf), but one I'm sure has taken place at numerous places and times throughout the nation. At first glance, little is extraordinary about the good work done by this band of dedicated preservationists, at least beyond the measure of other like-minded citizens.
And maybe that's what's notable, and extraordinary, about Haines Falls and all the other rail preservation sites nationwide. Are those places being restored and then preserved in amber? Or by some trick of chance, are they being restored and preserved for what I sometimes call "future-prep"--some as-yet unforeseeable future use?
Talk to the preservationists themselves, as I did with Mountaintop Historical Society representatives over the Memorial Day weekend (graciously showing me their work), and of course they emphasize the real world, the need to deal with short-term goals, the basic drive to preserve the past. Nothing more. Let's stay real here, and all that.
And yet the caveat almost always creeps into the tone of voice, if not uttered in words itself: Wouldn't it be nice if ... as in "nice if we were a holding action, readying for rail's return." Few historical activists actually will say this; they'd be deemed crazy or worse, accused of losing sight of their preservation mission and etc.
No, right now, the search is on for a historically accurate surviving railcar, preferably of Ulster & Delaware origin but at least from some regionally appropriate fallen flag, one that can be parked on 132 feet of track, next to Haines Falls Station, to educate tourists and youngsters of what once was. Know of one? Let the Society know. Or contact me.
At this juncture we rejoin the main theme of this piece, the rails-against-trails debate.The Mountaintop Historical Society's query in 2013 has to cut through significant static generated by at least two ongoing New York State squabbles involving rail rights-of-way and their use, in the ongoing "rails versus trails" battle. One such spat pits New York's Ulster County against the Catskill Mountain Railroad, one of two area tourist operations not too terribly far from Haines Falls. Ulster County seeks to create a hiking trail from Kingston, N.Y., to the Ashokan Reservoir—no rail allowed.
To its great credit, Catskill Mountain Railroad has argued that rail and trail can co-exist. Detractors say the railroad itself isn't drawing enough tourists as it is, and any project should be trail and nothing else. That no-prisoners attitude is nothing new.
Nor is it limited to the Catskills, a region my brother lovingly calls the "training ground for the Adirondacks." In those larger Adirondack Mountains (photo at left), encompassed by a massive namesake state park, a similar (but fittingly larger and more acute) dispute is being played out, pitting local trail advocates against the Adirondack Scenic Railroad, operated by the Adirondack Railway Preservation Society (ARPS) over portions of 141 miles of right-of-way owned by the state.
New York's DOT and Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) are reviewing this route and, last week, invited public comment as part of a review process, which of course has de-evolved into a rail versus trail spat. The plan was for the former New York Central branch line to be held for future freight, and maybe even passenger, use.
Snowmobilers and hikers, including the Adirondack Recreational Trail Advocates, and other groups (Sierra Club) see the future differently, with the Trail Advocates calling for existing rail infrastructure to be removed and a trail established between Old Forge and Lake Placid, N.Y. Six towns and villages so far concur.
ARPS has a partner, however, and one with railroad expertise: Saratoga & North Creek Railway, a subsidiary of Iowa Pacific Holdings, whose CEO Ed Ellis knows a thing or two about "real" railroading, protests by trails-only partisans about "economic reality" notwithstanding. A year ago, Chicago-based Iowa Pacific was cleared by the Surface Transportation Board to revive 30 miles of the railroad between North Creek and Newcomb, serving the eastern "High Peaks" within Adirondack State Park—ironically, a popular destination for hikers.
But rail professionalism (or enhanced access) isn't the real issue for the trail folk involved in the Adirondack Mountains. The real issue is one of real utility, be it passenger or freight, or both. Iowa Pacific CEO Ellis last year noted the market existed for rock and tailings left by previous industry to be hauled out. To me, that's utilizing railroads and their "green" advantage. The trail folk don't see that; they see railroads as a scourge the way Henry David Thoreau might have seen same 160 years ago.
Put most simply, the rail side seems to offer the reasonable "rails and trails" option. The trail side seems to hold a much more firm, inflexible stance. Rail advocates, freight and passenger, can claim this is nothing new. I'm on this side, though I'd be less than honest if I didn't note I've met my share of rail voices holding a mirror-image "all or nothing" no-negotiations attitude toward hikers, bicyclers, and others. Compromise used to be the American genius; it seems to escape us nowadays.
And then there are the preservationists, with no need to take sides on the rail and trail issue but (in the case of Haines Falls, N.Y.) being drowned out by the furor nonetheless. In a way, the preservationists sow the seeds for such discord, similar to the urban artists and pioneers who take the first steps in revitalizing city neighborhoods, only to be priced out of the reclaimed territory. The preservationists often save enough old railroad infrastructure to generate thoughts of rail's return, or alternately of a nice, quiet, passive trail for locals and second-home owners flocking to what once was undesirable. Friction follows.
Haines Falls, N.Y., and the Mountaintop Historical Society are nowhere near worrying about that yet, of course. All the Society seeks is a historic railcar to remind people of a storied past. Or so representatives say, and I've no reason not to believe them. But I find a small voice inside me wondering – just speculating, mind you; I'm not suggesting this for real – what if this is just the start of something larger?
Nah, of course not. Let's stay real here, and all that. That's the high ground Adirondack and Catskill anti-rail parties are claiming as their own. Rails and trails, how ludicrous. Having both, well, that would be making history.

This chair is a favorite of ours- full of modern style but classic enough to use even in a traditional setting. It features high, flared arms that nestle you in , and trendy mid-century modern legs. Notice the button detailing- four on the back and 2 on each inside arm. This comfy chair is perfect alone, or for real drama, use a pair- maybe in front of a fireplace or flanking a sofa.

On Monday 1 October from 7.15 - 8.30pm, in association with the Future Cities Project and as part of the Battle of Ideas festival, the London Design Museum will be hosting a talk questioning if Design in Denial?
"Once upon a time, designers were celebrated as people who dreamt of transforming the world. Today, it seems as if they are regularly blamed for that transformation: for increasing consumerism or for wasteful obsolescence. Once visionaries; today's designers seems much more cautious. Even with more access to tools, techniques and materials, designers are happy to restrict their palette for the sake of ethical, social or environmental considerations. Design is seldom discussed in its own terms. Many designers increasingly defend design by doing stuff-other-than-design. In fact, they are more likely to stress design's moral contribution to myriad issues including responsible consumption, social inclusion and sustainable living."
A panel of designers including Clive Grinyer (Director of Design at Orange France Telecom), Jonathan Barnbrook, Tom Dunmore (Editor of STUFF Magazine ), Patrick Cox of Wolff Olins and Austin Williams (Director, Future Cities Project). Will be asking if designers are simply capturing the cultural 'zeitgeist' or if design is in denial?

Marmot Ajax Jacket
A very nice, lightweight, warm jacket
Very happy with this jacket and happy about the great sale price. I purchased the Brick Red and an XL. The color is a true darker red (not a bright red) with a tint of brown and the size is true. I have a long torso, 6 ft, 180 pounds, so I wanted the XL (opposed to a L) to provide length. The shoulders are just a little large for me, don't look bad and allow me to put a sweater underneath with comfort (no pulling). The jacket is nice and warm without extra layers in our 0 to 20 degree temperatures we've having. One drawback might be that it doesn't have a hood and the side pockets are slanted (might fear losing something) but there is a top front square pocket and a deep inside pocket. Very happy to find this lightweight jacket.

Nice Jacket
I purchased this Marmot jacket in small for my teenage son (approx. 5'4, 115 lbs. & thin built) since we will be heading to PA next month & it was a great price. The small size fit him well with room for layering and room to grow. The jacket is very lightweight as described and does not appear that it would be warm but we have a Marmot sleeping bag made with similar materials and it is the warmest bag. This is the perfect jacket for traveling since it is not bulky and can easily be packed in carry-on bag. This jacket was accurately described by Travel Smith.

Warm winter jacket/sweater

Skiing activities as it so light.
November 26, 2013
great base layer
The coat is warm and very light weight. Make a great base layer. The shoulders were bigger than expected.

Saipem UK Selects FloEFD Engineering Fluid Dynamics Software for Autodesk Inventor
November 2007
Saipem UK has selected Flomerics' FloEFD engineering fluid dynamics software for the analyses of transportation barges, construction and drilling vessels, and deck structures. "We have been using traditional Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to analyze our Autodesk Inventor solid models for the last couple of years. But we found the analysis process too time consuming because our software was unable to meet the rigorous demands of our development timescale. FloEFD on the other hand matches our needs for shortened design time and ease-of-use" said Dr. Zafer Ayaz, Naval Architect. "As a market leading contractor in the oil and gas industry, Saipem is on the forefront of technological innovation. Their Naval Architecture Group handles a wide range of projects; therefore, we are very pleased to see that FloEFD fits within their design process effortlessly and offers them the analysis power they need" added Gary Carter, Flomerics' CEO.
Saipem is the largest and most powerful turnkey contractor in the oil and gas industry. Saipem enjoys a superior competitive position for the provision of engineering, procurement, installation and construction (EPIC) services to the oil industry. They focus on the toughest and most technologically challenging projects such as activities in remote areas, deepwater, gas and difficult oil.

Total abdominal colectomy is the removal of the large intestine from the lowest part of the small intestine (ileum) to the rectum. After it is removed, the end of the small intestine is sewn to the rectum.
You will receive general anesthesia right before your surgery. This will make you asleep and unable to feel pain.
During the surgery:
Ileorectal anastomosis; Subtotal colectomy
The procedure is done for people who have:
Total abdominal colectomy is usually safe. Your risk depends on your general overall health. Ask your doctor about these possible complications:
Risks for any surgery are:
Risks for this surgery are:
Always tell your doctor or nurse what drugs you are taking, even drugs, supplements, or herbs you bought without a prescription.
Before you have surgery, talk with your doctor or nurse about the following things:
During the 2 weeks before your surgery:
The day before your surgery:
On the day of your surgery:
You will be in the hospital for 3 to 7 days. By the second day, you will probably be able to drink clear liquids. Your doctor or nurse will slowly add thicker fluids and then soft foods as your bowel begins to work again.
After this procedure, you can expect to have 4 to 6 bowel movements a day. You may need more surgery and an ileostomy if you have Crohn's disease and it spreads to your rectum.
Most people who have a total abdominal colectomy recover fully. They are able to do most of the activities they were doing before their surgery. This includes most sports, travel, gardening, hiking, and other outdoor activities, and most types of work.

Fish tapeworm is an infection with a parasite found in fish.
The fish tapeworm (Diphyllobothrium latum), is the largest parasite that infects humans. Humans become infected when they eat raw or undercooked freshwater fish that contain fish tapeworm cysts.
The infection is seen in many areas where humans eat uncooked or undercooked fish from rivers or lakes, including:
After a person has eaten infected fish, the larva begin to grow in the intestine. Larvae are fully grown in 3 - 6 weeks. The adult worm, which is segmented, may reach a length of 30 feet. Eggs are formed in each segment of the worm and are passed in the stool. Sometimes, parts of the worm may also be passed in the stool.
Fish tapeworm infection may lead to vitamin B12 deficiency and anemia.
Most people who are infected have no symptoms. If symptoms do occur, they may include:
People who are infected sometimes pass segments of worm in their stools. These segments can be seen in the stool.
Tests may include:
You will receive medicines to fight the parasites. You take these medicines by mouth, usually in a single dose.
The drug of choice for tapeworm infections is praziquantal. Niclosamide can also be used. You may need vitamin B12 injections or supplements to treat the vitamin B12 deficiency and anemia that can occur with this infection.
Fish tapeworms can be removed with a single treatment dose. There are no lasting effects.
Call your health care provider if:
Avoiding raw freshwater fish and cooking fish enough (to more than 140 degrees F for 5 minutes) will prevent infection with the fish tapeworm. Freezing fish to -4 degrees F for 24 hours also kills fish tapeworm eggs.

The very fact that any mixologist — a term I use here in its broadest scope, as one who has mixed at least two things together on at least one occasion in his/her life — can name a cocktail creation absolutely anything he or she wants is really quite mind-blowing to me. I mean, when you have a baby, you can name that baby any name you want, but it still has to be a name… unless, I suppose, you are an Oscar-winning actress or a world-famous lip-syncher/plastic surgery recipient or that man in Egypt who, post-uprising, bestowed upon his daughter the moniker of Facebook.
The point is, given how wide-open the field is, I think I overthink my cocktail naming. What to call a cocktail needn't necessarily follow a traceable logic or make sense to anyone other than you, and really, it doesn't need to make sense to you, either. It doesn't need to mean something or say anything more than these words are what you say when you want this drink. It just needs a name.
I chose to name this cocktail the Spendthrifty for three reasons: One, my mother-in-law, who is an accountant, was over at our place working on our taxes when I made this drink up. Two, the drink's ingredients include our recently homemade, orange-infused gin (DIY=save $). Three, phonetically speaking, "spendthrifty" sounds springlike to me — you have to smile to say it– which is what I think of when I think of a botanical gin made citrusy.
We made the orange-infused gin by adding the peel of one navel orange to a pint of London dry gin (this brand) and storing it in an airtight Mason jar in a closet for about ten days. It's been by far the easiest, most successful of our home infusions, and I dare say it's downright foolproof.
My husband, my mother-in-law and myself all smiled like idiots after taking a sip of the Spendthrifty. It's spend-nifty!
The Spendthrifty
2 ounces Maker's Mark
1 1/4 ounces Cointreau
3/4 ounces orange-infused gin
3/4 ounces freshly squeezed orange juice
Combine all ingredients in an ice-filled shaker. Shake and strain into cocktail glass.

Ok, I have the first kink figured out, thanks to you guys, and now, I have a stop gap fix for the shipping issue.
Because of how our shipping works, the site won't calculate the correct amount at the point of sale. I have it set up as the highest shipping price, for now, and I will refund the customer the appropriate amount.
So, in other words, don't worry - you won't actually pay $24 shipping on a bar of shaving soap!
Sorry it has to go this way, but until we work out all of the bugs, I guess it'll have to do.
Thanks again, guys!

Choose your Schedule • DeLano Farms Market (357 West E Ave) Monday 4-7 pm • Nature's Way Preschool (4442 Oakland Drive at Kilgore) Thursday 5-6:30 pm (limited to 50 shares at the Nature's Way location) • Bank Street Farmer's Market (1204 Bank Street) Saturday 8-10 am (limited to 50 shares at the Farmer's Market location)
We hope you will have a wonderful experience with the DeLano Farms CSA this season. Here are the folks you'll be seeing each week and they are also the people growing your food. Feel free to ask them questions and give them your feedback. They love talking about what they do! Lucy Reese, Farm Manager Lucy is originally from Iowa and graduated from Grinnell College with a double major in philosophy and psychology. Before working at DeLano Farms, she worked abroad in Singapore teaching critical thinking skills and then tended transplants at a local Kalamazoo greenhouse. Lucy loves working with vegetables and soil and brings her knowledge and passion for producing the best quality produce possible to DeLano Farms. When she isn't farming (which is not very often) she enjoys cooking and playing games.
Bronwynn Kelly, Assistant Farm Manager Bronwynn grew up in Kalamazoo and became interested in farming during her high school job at a local apple orchard. Loving to work outside, she chose to pursue a degree in environmental science at Michigan Tech. She then spent a year in Alaska working with small farms and community gardens. Bronwynn returned to Kalamazoo to join the DeLano farm crew, in pursuit of experiencing the balance between humans and nature that occurs every day outside in the farm field. She enjoys hiking, walking her dog, and eating in her free time. Matt Arndt, Crew Member After practicing horticulture in NW Indiana for the better part of a decade, Matt moved to Kalamazoo in 2012. He apprenticed at a small family farm in Bangor, MI before coming to the KNC. Matt has a keen interest in reviving the farm land at DeLano Farms and producing quality food for his community. Farming is an ongoing learning process for him, so when Matt is not doing the work to grow food, he is usually foraging, cooking, or researching new plant based methods and ideas.
Scott Weber, Farm Education Coordinator Scott was born and raised in the majestic farm lands of Southeast Wisconsin. His farming heritage drove him to dedicate his life to individual and community wellness. This passion for health led to becoming a Registered Dietitian and eventually to focusing his work on the role of local foods in the wellness picture. Scott has spent years studying Native American food ways and worked with the Huron Potawatomi Tribe before coming to KNC. When he is not busy growing or educating Scott enjoys cooking, brewing herbal ales and enjoying life with his wife and three children. Be sure to make time to enjoy some of Scott's creative and informative demonstrations and programs at the Farm.
Adrianne Schut, Farm Crew Adrianne is originally from Fennville MI and moved to Kalamazoo 5 years ago to study public relations and non-profit leadership at Western Michigan University. During her time at WMU, she discovered a passion for agriculture and the local food movement which led her to DeLano Farms.
Katie Vasquez, Farm Crew This is Katie's first season at Delano Farms. She worked previously cultivating urban gardens in Nashville and Memphis before joining the farm crew. Some of her favorite things about the farm are cloudy days and seeing things blossom. She is looking forward to gaining experience to one day tend her own organic garden plot.

Durham joins fight to intervene in LGC case
Friday, January 18, 2013
DURHAM — On behalf of more than a dozen communities who feel the Bureau of Securities Regulations did not adequately address what they each perceived to be an injustice of monetary returns from the Local Government Center, four towns, including Durham, have filed a motion to intervene in the appeal of the case "Local Government Center, Inc. v. NH Bureau of Securities Regulation," (BSR) currently before the state Supreme Court.
Pam Brenner, Peterborough town administrator stated, "The information provided by the LGC in response to Durham, Peterborough, and Salem's RSA 91-A request reveals that in any given year, the membership of the Trusts changed. Awarding the refund based on the August 16, 2012 Order date does not capture accurately the amounts that Trust members contributed to the Trusts over the time that the surplus accrued."
In August, State of N.H. hearings officer Donald Mitchell found that the "LGC had engaged in actions or inactions that resulted in multiple violations."
Northfield Town Administrator Glenn Smith stated, "The municipalities have requested the NH Supreme Court to determine an equitable approach to distributing the surplus generally requiring the LGC to calculate the amount of surplus that accrued each year from the year that the LGC first unlawfully retained excess surplus, and to allocate the surplus proportionally among the members of the Trusts by year."
The LGC was ordered to pay back a total of $53.4 million as follows: $33.2 million from HealthTrust; $17.1 million from the property-liability pool siphoned from HealthTrust; and $3.1 million from property-liability for communities that joined after June 14, 2010. |
