Mental Health First Aid ~ Cellulosic Ethanol Update ~ The Gary Tharaldson Story

Wednesday, January 24 – Jode Freyholtz-London, founder and executive director of Wellness in the Woods in Verndale, Minnesota, presented to landlords today in Fargo on the subject of mental health first aid. The idea is to help landlords deal with tenants who experience a crisis. She joins us to share some of that advice. ~~~ Commentary from Bruce Berg: “The Good Congress.” ~~~ Advanced biofuels are touted as the next step beyond corn-based ethanol. They’re also supposed to bring jobs to rural communities and provide additional revenue for farmers.  Harvest Public Media’s Amy Mayer visits a cellulosic production plant to see what’s working and what’s still a challenge. ~~~ The University of Mary has published “Open Secrets of Success: The Gary Tharaldson Story.” Gary is North Dakota’s wealthiest man, an rags-to-riches story. The book is just out, and joining us is the author, Patrick McCloskey, director of research and publications at the University of Mary.
