Ogilvie restructures municipal bar

BY KIRSTEN FAURIE EDITOR@MORAMINN.COM

The city of Ogilvie restructured the Tower Bar business model by taking control of food service, thus creating a municipal bar and grill effective July 1.

It has been a year since the Tower Bar began serving food in addition to drinks. The city did not operate food service. Instead, Becky Ripka signed a contract

with the city to provide food service while the city continued to serve drinks at the bar and sell off-sale liquor.

The year showed that food service brought more money in to the facility, but dividing revenue and expense between the two entities was fraught with difficulty.

Ogilvie Mayor Mark Nilson said dividing the profits of one business between the two entities wasn’t working out for every-

body financially.

For example, Ripka said the decision of who paid the wait staff often left one side losing money, while the other gained.

Both Nilson and Ripka said they had difficulties organizing and coming to a consensus on promotions and advertising, often debating with no resolution who would benefit from it more SEE BAR, PAGE 10

Co-op ousts auto repair

BY KIRSTEN FAURIE EDITOR@MORAMINN.COM

Big changes are in the works for Federated Co-op’s Mora locations as the co-op shifts away from auto repair services and expands at its second Mora location, formerly FleetGo. The co-op’s downtown location at the intersection of East Forest Avenue and Union Street closed its auto repair shop on June 21, after over 20 years of operation.

Federated Co-op CEO Mike McMahon said that their auto repair business wasn’t making the financial return to make it worth investing resources in, SEE CO-OP, PAGE 10

Unemployment rates down overall; Kanabec rates among highest in state

BY KIRSTEN FAURIE EDITOR@MORAMINN.COM

While unemployment rates are down statewide, Kanabec County still ranks near the bottom of all counties in Minnesota. As of May, Kanabec County has the seventh highest unemployment rate of Minnesota’s 87 counties, tied with Pine and Red Lake counties at 4.8 percent (not seasonally adjusted).

According to seasonally adjusted figures released by the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development, Minnesota’s unemployment rate fell to 3.7 percent in May. The U.S. unemployment rate in May was 4.3 percent.

“Minnesota is outpacing the nation in job growth, with all 11 major industrial sectors seeing gains over the past year,” said DEED Commissioner Shawntera Hardy in a press release. “These and other indicators point to continued strength in the state labor market.”

BARB FREDERICK

I was visiting your area and took a couple of photos of a bear with her cubs. A local resident said I should submit them to the paper. They were taken June 19, about six miles north of Mora, west of Highway 65 and about a mile south of Knife Lake. They were 30 - 40 feet from our motorhome. The first is the mother standing on the right with a cub up the tree (the other cub was on the backside of the tree out of the photo). The second photo is the mama bear before I spotted the cubs up the tree.

Patterson appointed 10th Judicial District Tenth Judicial District Chief Judge Douglas B. Meslow announced today that Paul Patterson has been appointed to serve as the new District Administrator of Minnesota’s Tenth Judicial District. The appointment, which was approved by the Minnesota Judicial Council, is effective July 10.

As district administrator, Patterson will oversee the administrative affairs of the Tenth Judicial District, including management and processing of all court records and files, district budgeting and accounting, human resources and maintenance of the district’s computer network. The Tenth Judicial District is comprised of the district courts in Anoka, Chisago, Isanti, Kanabec, Pine, Sherburne, Washington and Wright counties.

Patterson has worked in the Superior Court of California – Alameda County since 2013 as a court support director and spent over three years in the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida as a division manager. Prior to that, he worked for Protection One, an alarm monitoring corporation, since 2000; first as the di-

rector of customer operations, then as a senior director of business solutions and senior director of operations. He has also earned a Master of Business Administration.

“After an exhaustive search and selection process, it was clear that Paul was the best choice for this important position,” said Chief Judge Meslow.

“Paul will bring significant management experience to this role, as well as his extensive expertise in court operations. Most of all, Paul shares a vision with the judges and staff of the Tenth Judicial District that our courts should be innovative, well-managed and focused on providing the best possible service to the people of Minnesota.”

Patterson will replace Michael Moriarity, who is retiring as Tenth Judicial District administrator after more than 30 years of service in Minnesota’s court system.

In 2016, more than 130,000 cases were filed in Tenth Judicial District courts, the third-highest number of filings among the state’s 10 judicial districts.

Forty-five judges serve the district.

Work zones and zipper merge Question: I was told that the speeding fine in a construction zone had gone up recently. Could you also explain the Zipper Merge for merging into construction zones in Minnesota?

Answer: With a recent area work zone crash that left two people injured, this is a great time to talk about work zone safety.

During the spring and summer months, Ask A construction season is in full swing in MinneTrooper sota and motorists risk Neil Dickenson their lives and the lives of others by not slowing down and paying attention.

In the past five years (2011 – 2015), 39 people have died and more than 3,700 people injured in work zone traffic crashes.

In 2015, 10 people died in work zone traffic crashes, the most since 2010 (12).

SAFETY TIPS: When driving in a construction zone, slow down. Work zone fines for speeding are more than $300.

Put the distractions away.

Distracted driving is a leading factor in crashes in Minnesota and a driver needs to focus 100 percent of their attention on the road.

Move over for construction workers and their vehicles, as it will provide safety for not only the workers but the motorists as well.

Never drive impaired.

Wear your seatbelt as it can save your life.

Check out 511mn.org for road closures, detours and traffic incidents.

ZIPPER MERGE The Minnesota Department of Transportation urges motorists to use both lanes of traffic in a construction zone.

Traffic should not merge together until reaching the designated merge area. At that time, vehicles should alternate in a “zipper” fashion into the open lane.

Some drivers slow too quickly and move over to the lane that will continue through the construction area. This driving behavior can lead to unexpected and dangerous lane switching, serious crashes and road rage.

Some motorists will intentionally drive slow or block the lane that is closing because they believe drivers trying to “beat” the traffic are rude. This is not only dangerous and can lead to a crash or road rage but it’s also illegal. Remember, the driver using the open lane is following the proper way to merge.

Studies show that the “zipper merge” works the best to keep traffic flowing, especially when there is a lot of traffic, by: Reducing differences in speeds between two lanes.

Reducing the overall length of traffic backup by as much as 40 percent.

Reducing congestion on freeway interchanges.

Creating a sense of fairness and equity that all lanes are moving at the same rate.

For questions concerning traffic related laws or issues in Minnesota, send questions to Sgt. Neil Dickenson – Minnesota State Patrol at 1131 Mesaba Ave, Duluth, MN 55811. (Follow him on Twitter @MSPPIO_NE or reach him at neil. dickenson@state.mn.us).

Americans unite as one team for common purpose Grilling hot dogs and corn on the cob, marching in parades, staying up late to watch fireworks light up the night sky – the Fourth of July always reminds us how united we are. We are united in independence. We are united in freedom. We are united in patriotism, our unwavering love of this nation and the people in it.

That’s something to celebrate, even if sometimes it’s easy to forget – with all the partisanship and division we see in this nation we love.

Our founders faced divisions in 1776 – different colonies, difUS Senator ferent backgrounds, different Amy Klobuchar religions, even different visions for our democracy. But despite those differences, 241 years ago, they came together, signed a declaration and changed the course of history.

They knew that there was more that united them than divided them. They were driven by a common purpose and that purpose was freedom.

And they worked hard for it, so that they’re children and grandchildren would be better off.

We’re still doing that today. Just look out across Minnesota and around the country and we see it happening everywhere.

We see innovators and business owners thinking up new ways to take on big challenges – like preparing workers for the 21st century economy and fixing roads and bridges. We see men and women in the military risking their lives overseas to protect all of us here at home. We see parents and grandparents doing everything they can to give their kids and grandkids a brighter future. We see people who really care – teachers and nurses and engineers and firefighters and law enforcement officers who work hard every day to strengthen their communities.

We see that common purpose. We see America.

So, this Independence Day, let’s make our own declaration: To respect one another and always remember that there is more that unites us than divides us. We are one nation -- with self-evident truths, with inalienable rights, with liberty, with justice for all.

I’ll end with this: I was at the Congressional baseball game a few weeks ago, which took place just the day after the terrible shooting at the Republican team’s practice in Virginia.

At the game, with nearly 25,000 people in the stands, we saw that spirit of unity. Everyone stood and applauded when David Bailey, one of the Capitol Police officers injured in the shooting, took to the mound to throw out the first pitch. And at the end of the game, the winning team – the Democratic team – handed their trophy to the Republican team. They said, “Put it in Representative Scalise’s office.”

Instead of two teams, they showed that we are one team. We are America.

Have a happy and safe Fourth of July.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Do the job of maintenance

FirstLight making a difference

To the Editor: As buildings, cars, homes and farm equipment get older through use and time they require regular maintenance and renovation. It is always smarter to maintain and remodel, than to trash and replace.

This past week the Mora school board held a work session meeting to discuss facility planning. Mr. Schultz reported that the “State of Minnesota would provide $500,000/year for ongoing maintenance.” They have no plans, no maintenance projects scheduled for this summer or near future. If this money which is allocated for maintenance had been spent effectively over time, our building would be in very good shape.

Instead we have been on this treadmill of referendum after referendum since 2012. The voters have rejected the trashing of historic Mora High School. It’s time to do the responsible thing and follow the voters’ wishes to maintain and restore historic Mora High School.

Gerald McCabe Mora

To the Editor: The best health care providers in rural America not only provide excellent care but also focus strongly on speaking to the regulatory, political and system environments in which that care is delivered. FirstLight Health System serves this area well in doing just that – working hard to make a difference.

Community-based integrated behavioral health program? Check. A strong presence at the recent Minnesota Department of Health’s Rural Health Conference in Duluth, speaking at breakout groups on the value of coalitions in developing community health and combatting drug abuse? Check.

The communities in our area are fine ones. Finer still for FirstLight’s presence.

Talking nonsense and spitting tobacco juice News from Yesteryear from the Times historical editions housed by the Kanabec History Center 125 YEARS AGO (1892) Lake Mora is still on the rise.

Julius Dose and W. D. Burhite of Pine City, talked nonsense in our sanctum and spat tobacco juice on our floor Tuesday.

A corps of engineers is surveying a railroad line from Coon Creek, Anoka County, through Cambridge, Grass Lake and Hinckley to Duluth. It parallels the Eastern Minnesota road from Hinckley to Duluth. It is claimed to be a project of the Northern Pacific Company. John Swan’s farm in the town of Grass Lake, is said to be a prospective town site and end the division where roundhouses and repair shops will be erected.

Let all who come to Mora to spend the Fourth bring a basket of edibles and participate in the picnic dinner which is being arranged.

Mrs. Gussie Richardsen announces that she will furnish lemonade to all who thirst during the day and evening of the Fourth at the hall.

Col. J. F. Stone of Pine City, has accepted our invitation to orate at Mora on the Fourth. Col. Stone is a good speaker and we may expect something good.

The census of Kanabec County was considerably increased last week by the arrival of 51 persons, big and small, direct from Sweden. Several hundred more are expected during the year. This last arrival brings the number of new settlers since Jan. 1, up to about 200.

100 YEARS AGO (1917) “Barnum & Bailey Circus is coming; Greatest Show on Earth will soon exhibit in this vicinity:” Once again the glad tidings are being spread broadcast telling of the coming of Barnum & Bailey’s Circus. The Greatest Show on Earth, it is announced, will positively be exhibited within easy traveling distance this season and, as usual, a large percentage of the population will declare a holiday to visit the show. The big circus will exhibit in St. Cloud on July 13. It is promised that nothing to compare with the present Barnum & Bailey

performance has ever before been seen under canvas. New and novel features have been imported from abroad and a program of events, thrilling, educational and screamingly funny, will occupy every instant in three rings, four stages, the riggings above and the hippodrome surrounding for more than three hours.

75 YEARS AGO (1942) “Co-op Creamery is busy place; 13 additional positions created through milk drying plant:” The Mora Co-operative Creamery is a busy place these days. The volume of milk and cream exceeds that of any previous year. The installation of the milk drying plant by Land O’ Lakes has created 13 additional positions.

The creamery has now 378 milk patrons and 175 cream patrons, giving employment to eight milk and cream haulers. One day last week the creamery received and took care of over 83,000 pounds of milk. The week ending June 21, 486 tubs of butter, over 33,000 pounds, were manufactured and sold, 13,000 pounds more than during the same period last year.

The income to patrons during the months of June will be over $40,000.

50 YEARS AGO (1967) “Palermo brothers plan return trip to Vietnam:” The Palermo brothers, Phil and Louis, are looking forward to another trip to Vietnam. They have been invited by the Chief of United States chaplains to return to Vietnam. The brothers, evangelists in the Youth for Christ movement returned home from Vietnam about two months ago.

They have been asked to join with Billy Graham in his Tokyo crusade which is set for next October and will go from there to Vietnam and visit with the men

stationed there.

Louis said that they found the morale of the men very high and that they had assured the fighting men that “not everyone in the U. S. is burning draft cards or carrying signs. Millions are thinking of you and praying for you.”

25 YEARS AGO (1992) “Local youngsters experience history:” Reading and writing and arithmetic, taught to the tune of a hickory stick--not exactly a familiar experience for students of today.

Except at the Kanabec History Center.

Teacher Pam Korys doesn’t really use a hickory stick, of course.

“But I do make them stand in the corner for talking,” she laughed, adding, “it usually only takes once.”

Old-fashioned discipline aside, a host of new experiences await the first through eighth-graders from Mora and Ogilvie who participate in the special program.

10 YEARS AGO (2007) “New safety campaign could help save lives:” The Kanabec County Sheriff’s Office is spearheading a public safety campaign aimed at making area homesteads and businesses - particularly those in rural locations - easier to identify and locate.

The initiative calls for all properties in the county to eventually be fitted with two-way, reflective numbers on their mailboxes or driveways, and Kanabec County Sheriff Steve Schulz said the safety measure would, if implemented, aid in shaving precious seconds off the response times of emergency personnel vehicles.

Taking the fifth

You have probably seen many TV cop shows such as “Dragnet,” “Miami Vice,” “Law and Order” and “CSI,” where the suspense and dramatic music rise to a crescendo, the suspect is arrested and the officer announces to the suspect: You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense.

More recently, Michael Flynn, former national security adviser, has indicated he intends to invoke the Fifth It’s In Your Amendment right against self-incrimination and refuse to answer subpoeCourt nas from the U.S. Senate Intelligence Committee. What is meant by “taking Judge (or pleading) the Fifth?”

The Fifth Amendment (Bill of Stephen Halsey Rights) in the Minnesota and the United States Constitution provides that, no person “shall be compelled to be a witness against himself.” This privilege against self-incrimination permits a person to refuse to testify or answer requests for documents where the answer might incriminate him in present or future criminal proceedings. While this privilege protects against forced testimonial evidence, it does not extend to the compelled production of all physical evidence. It is because of that distinction that a suspect may be required to participate in a lineup, to be photographed and fingerprinted.

To have his handwriting analyzed, have his blood tested or even to speak the words or wear the designated clothing claimed to have been spoken or worn by the wrong doer. Those things are permitted because they produce physical characteristics rather than the contents of the person’s mind. The privilege protects testimonial evidence. It also extends to answers that would support a criminal conviction, as well as answers that provide a critical link in the chain of evidence needed to prosecute the person.

We can expect considerable debate in federal court over the ability of a corporation or other legal entity (not a person) to invoke the Fifth Amendment. Even though corporations cannot be criminally prosecuted, generally a corporation cannot refuse to provide documents by “taking the Fifth.” This is so even if the custodian of the records, such as a corporate officer or employee, might be criminally prosecuted based on what the documents reveal.

Your right to remain silent is a Constitutional protection which you enjoy.

Blue Devils fall short at Hinckley invite

June 29 - July 5 Week of

ARIES - Mar 21/Apr 20 You may need to dim your lights so you do not outshine others, Aries. You can be a force and it pays to let others share a bit of the spotlight. This will garner some goodwill.

TAURUS - Apr 21/May 21 Taurus, settle into your comfort zone at home and take on all of the domestic tasks that have fallen by the wayside. You are very happy in your personal haven, Taurus.

LIBRA - Sept 23/Oct 23 Libra, your social schedule in the coming days is as busy as ever, but you don’t know how you will find the time. Make a list of your biggest priorities.

SCORPIO - Oct 24/Nov 22 Scorpio, it’s best to check your sense of direction from time to time to make sure you are not going the wrong way at full speed. Use a friend as your personal GPS.

GEMINI - May 22/Jun 21 Gemini, you may need to sort out a complicated relationship that has you trying to figure out who is friend who, if anyone, is foe. Play it carefully until you have all of the facts.

SAGITTARIUS - Nov 23/ Dec 21 Are you spreading yourself too thin, Sagittarius? Instead of dabbling in five or six plans, stick to one or two. By so doing, you’ll be able to focus your energy that much better.

CANCER - Jun 22/Jul 22 Sift through all of your financial matters and start to get your ducks in a row, Cancer. This is a prime time to take an assessment of your income and spending habits.

CAPRICORN - Dec 22/Jan 20 Don’t be too hasty to accept things at face value, Capricorn.

Investigate a little further before you invest any of your time. And especially before you hand over any money.

LEO - Jul 23/Aug 23 Leo, if personal growth or a change has been on your mind, why not get started this week?

You may benefit from a minor makeover or a change of scenery.

AQUARIUS - Jan 21/Feb 18 It’s time to get off the fence, Aquarius. You have to make a decision even if the answer you are leaning toward is painful or complicated. Once you move on you’ll be content.

VIRGO - Aug 24/Sept 22 Virgo, don’t be afraid to unload some clutter in the weeks ahead. Inventory all of your belongings and see what can be donated or removed. Enjoy the feelings of freedom this inspires.

PISCES - Feb 19/Mar 20 Now is the time to wrap up a few loose ends, Pisces. You know what areas of life need a little touching up. Get started as soon as you can.

The Mora Blue Devils amateur baseball team entered the 2017 Hinckley Invitational Tournament, June 23 - 25, as the defending champions. The team made it back to the championship game only to fall short to the Morris Eagles 8-2.

In the opening round game Friday, Mora (7-6 overall, 4-1 Eastern Minny League) defeated Maple Plain 5-0.

Asa Patterson dominated the Diamond Devils on the mound as he a threw a 3-hit shutout. Patterson struck out six and walked just one batter.

At the plate Sean Graff and Logan Graves each had two hits. Derek Graves and Dylan Graves each had RBI for the Blue Devils.

In the semi finals on Saturday, Mora had to go extra innings to defeat Hamel 5-4. Derek Graves went all nine innings (invitational tournament games are typically seven innings) to get the win. Graves allowed just five hits and recorded 17 strikeouts.

Trailing 1-0 in the fourth inning, Walter Schwartz got a big two-RBI single to put Mora ahead. The lead was extended to 3-1 in the fifth as Derek Graves and Sean Graff each had doubles in the inning.

Hamel was able to battle back to retake the lead heading to the last inning. Graff picked up his second RBI

tying the game at 4-4, but Mora left the bases loaded and the game headed to extra innings.

In the top of the ninth the Blue Devils loaded the bases and newcomer Raleigh Millar was hit by a pitch to give Mora the lead. Graves ended the game in style on the mound by strking out the side.

In the championship game Sunday, Mora played a very good Morris team. Ryan Van Someren started and took the loss. Van Someren went 5 2/3 innings striking out five. Newcomer Bryce Haw faced four batters and retired them all.

Mora never led during the game and was ultimately done in by a four-run Morris fourth inning as the Eagles broke a 2-2 tie. Morris put the game away with a two-run sixth inning for the final 8-2 margin.

At the plate Michael Humphrey was 2 for 4 while five other Devils each had a hit.

Mora was at Quamba on Wednesday, June 28, for a 7:30 game. Then the team is off over the Fourth of July, before getting back to action on Friday, July 7, at Chisago Lakes for a 7:30 p.m. game. The next home game for Mora is Sunday, July 9, for a doubleheader against Pine City starting at 2 p.m.

A woodchuck can’t chuck wood ECHOES FROM THE LOAFERS’ CLUB MEETING My neighbor Crandall stops by.

“How are you doing?” I ask.

“Everything is nearly copacetic.

I have my share of faults and I’m thankful for them. If I had no faults of my own, I wouldn’t take so much pleasure in noticing those of others.

I’m trying to find an alarm clock that rings only when I’m ready to get up. Those things are more rare than pension for mayflies.

Al’s World plans My sister Cruella was reading this Al Batt newspaper when she found a fascinating fact, at least to her. She asked, ‘Did you know that every time I breathe somebody dies?’ I told her that she ought to try using a mouthwash.”

NATURALLY I had just gotten home from a visit to a part of the country where meadowlarks are commonly seen and heard. The song of the western meadowlark echoed in my mind. It was a pleasant earworm.

In my yard, it was too hot. The

sun seemed too close. I spotted the groundhog high in a small tree. It wasn’t beating around the bush. It was eating the leaves of a mulberry tree. Groundhogs have a great appetite for those. Groundhogs are also variously referred to as woodchucks, whistle-pigs or land-beavers. A woodchuck can’t chuck wood. That name is thought to have its roots in a Native American language. The name whistle-pig comes from the fact that, when alarmed, a groundhog emits a high-pitched whistle. I watched the groundhog devour dandelions and white clover on our lawn. Those who live trap the animals say that cantaloupe makes a good bait. I went outside.

The animal whistled and fled.

Q-AND-A “How many nests does a pheasant have each year?” Pheasant hens will nest up to three times if their nests are unsuccessful or destroyed. If they lose the first nest, they will attempt a second. If they lose a second nest, they will try a third. They raise only one brood per year. They lay an average of 1113 eggs on the first attempt and that number is reduced with each subsequent nesting. By the third nest, the hen might be incubating only

one or two eggs. Some pheasants might nest in April, but mid-May through the first 10 days of June are the prime nesting period. Most of the nesting after that is likely renesting. The incubation period is 21 to 23 days.

“How does a Slinky keep squirrels away from feeders?” The “Slinky,” the children’s toy, can work as a baffle. “Who walks the stairs without a care. It shoots so high in the sky. Bounce up and down just like a clown.

Everyone knows its Slinky.”

Thread the post holding the feeder through the Slinky and attach one end of the Slinky under the feeder and allow it to hang down around the post. A squirrel trying to climb the post will get a ride on the Slinky back to the ground. Please keep two things in mind. Squirrels are very good at what they do and nature bats last.

Today is a great day to love your neighbor Last November, I was challenged by a message from Dave Runyon called “The Art of Neighboring.” He spoke of Luke 10:25-37, the story/parable of the Good Samaritan. In that story, a lawyer pushes Jesus to find out how to inherit eternal life (How do I go to heaven?) and Jesus draws the answer out of him: “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.” So, Jesus responds “You FFocus ocus oonn have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”

Faith Then Jesus tells a story that highlights a Jewish man who is Kirk beaten and robbed and is ignored by religious Jews. But then a SaKnudsen maritan man who by culture, race, religion and history should have hated the Jew goes drastically out of his way to care for, help and show love to the Jew. After his story, Jesus asks: “Which of these do you think, proved to be a neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?” The lawyer replied, “The one who showed him mercy” and Jesus responds with “You go, and do likewise.”

I think the lawyer wanted to be reassured that all the things he was doing equaled loving his neighbors, because, that is what I try to do. I am a pastor, so I like to believe that all pastor and church stuff

SENIOR DINING

I do is “loving my neighbors” well. But Jesus was telling the lawyer, and me, and you, to practically love and care for the people who were already on his everyday path.

“Love your neighbor” isn’t just a Christian cliché, but a command by Jesus to actually meet our geographical neighbors, our coworkers, classmates, fellow volunteers and others we interact with every day, looking for opportunities to help and serve them. If we learn to love and serve our neighbors tangibly and well, people will see and meet Jesus through us. Jesus wants us to love the people in front of us, even when those people are difficult and their lives or situations are messy, because Jesus loves all people.

Here is what I am trying to do and humbly suggest you might try too: 1) Learn your neighbors’ names. 2) Invite your everyday neighbors to your home to eat with you. 3) Look for ways you can serve them. (Mow their grass, watch their kids or pets, bring a gift) 4) Be available to them in person and by phone/text. I am working on this among my neighbors (we’ve lived here under a year), I have been encouraged by their stories, I am making new friends, and we are blessing each other. Jesus asked us to love our neighbors, because it is a primary way he reveals himself to people, and transforms hearts and communities through his followers. Today is a great day to love your neighbor.

Grill the Perfect Hamburger for the 4th of July

(320) 679-8238 Mora, MN

2 Convenient Locations in Mora If ever there was a recipe to master, it would be grilling the perfect burger. Though barbecued burgers may seem easy to make, all too often burgers are botched by a few mistakes. But don’t worry, burger mastery is within reach if you follow these simple tips.

Could any food be as simplistic and delicious at the same time as a patty of beef on top of a crusty bun, served with lettuce, tomato and your choice of condiments? Burgers are the go-to item for barbecues, campouts, fast-food meals and late night trips to the diner. A juicy burger can satisfy so many cravings in one sitting.

• Begin with fresh meat. Freshly ground meat will produce the best ñavor. If you are unsure when the packaged ground beef was made, ask the butcher or someone in the meat department of the supermarket to grind you up a fresh batch. Otherwise, use a food processor or an attachment on a stand mixer to grind the meat yourself.

• Fat has ñavor. If you’re going to indulge in a burger, make sure it has a fair amount of fat content. Fat helps keep the burgers moist and juicy. Make sure the fat content is about 18 to 20 percent of the mix. This helps to guarantee ñavorful burgers.

• Keep the meat cold. Chilled burger patties will ðrm up and hold their shape better during cooking. Leave the pre-made patties in the refrigerator until the last minute. Keep patties on ice if you will be cooking burgers in batches.

• Don’t overhandle the meat. Compressing the meat and handling it too much can lead to dry, dense burgers. Avoid tough meat by handling it as little as possible. Keep your hands wet while shaping the patties so they’ll come together easily.

• Oil up the grill. A clean, well-oiled grill prevents burgers from sticking during cooking.

• Make sure the grill is super-hot. The goal is to cook

burgers over high heat and fast. This is achieved with a very hot grill. It may only take three to ðve minutes per side to cook the burgers, depending on the thickness of the patty.

• Flip only once. Wait until the burgers have been grilling for a few minutes and release easily from the grill grate. Flip them over and allow them to cook a few minutes more. This helps keep the juices inside the meat and prevents your burgers from turning into burnt hockey pucks.

• Resist the urge to squash the burgers. Pushing down on the burgers with the spatula will only force the juices out. If you want dry burgers, press them down. If you want nice, juicy burgers, step away from the spatula.

• Allow the burgers to rest. Take the burgers oσ the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes so that all of their juice redistributes through the patty. Toast your hamburger buns and then serve the burgers with your favorite toppings.

Dig in and enjoy your eσorts, as well as the compliments from other diners.

JOBS: Mora’s top employers add jobs FROM PAGE 1

KIRSTEN FAURIE | TIMES

The Tower Bar and Grill, Ogilvie’s longtime municipal liquor store will become a municipal bar and grill July 1.

BAR: City of Ogilvie absorbs Tower food service FROM PAGE 1

and who would pay for it.

According to an April 25 memo by Bob Derus, the interim city manager and Dionne Haberman, the city’s administrative assistant, Ripka indicated that she wasn’t making enough money to justify her efforts and would be unwilling to continue to operate food service under the conditions of the current contract after June 30.

The announcement put in motion a series of discussions and special meetings to decide what the city should do to restructure the bar.

The consensus of the council was that it was vital to continue to sell food for the sake of the viability of the facility.

Several options were discussed, including: selling all or part of the facility which would simplify the city’s management responsibilities. This included consideration of selling just the bar and restaurant area while the city would continue to sell off-sale.

Most Minnesota cities that opt to sell alcohol choose to sell only off-sale liquor. In 2015, Minnesota cities operated 226 municipal liquor stores, with 98 of them operating both on-sale and off-sale.

Instead, the city decided to buy-out Ripka’s inventory and capital investments then hire its own staff to operate food service.

Municipal restaurants are less common but not unheard of. One such store is the Wayzata Bar and Grill (also known as “the Muni”); another is the Stacy Sports Grill.

When discussions first began in April, Mike Prenevost owner of the Finish Line Bar and Grill expressed he would prefer to see food service left in the private sector, citing his struggles since the Tower Bar’s food service began to compete with his restaurant.

“It’s taking business from everywhere —from a town that didn’t have business to give,” he said.

Mayor Nilson said the goal of a municipal liquor store has always been to generate income for the city thus easing the burden on taxpayers. “We’re here to make money for the residents of Ogilvie,” he said.

For many years, the Tower Bar served both onsale (bar service) and off-sale liquor.

According to the Minnesota Office of the State Auditor, Minnesota municipalities were originally authorized to own and operate liquor establishments as a way of controlling the sale of alcohol. For rural communities, municipal liquor operations provide access and convenience in areas that may have been unattractive to privately-run establishment.

Today, profitable municipal liquor operations have provided another source of revenue for the city, thus reducing the local tax burden.

While Ripka said even though she was out some money and not pleased about how the decision making process was communicated, the new arrangement “will be for best.”

Nilson said he was looking forward to the change ahead. “Hopefully it will be a smooth transition.”

employment numbers which have fluctuated between 169 and 233 over the last 10 years.

DEED reported Minnesota employers eliminated 7,200 jobs in May, after adding 28,200 jobs in the three months before. Over the past year, the state has added 48,068 jobs, a gain of 1.7 percent.

Nationally, jobs are up 1.5 percent over the past year.

CO-OP: Changes include moving small engine repair FROM PAGE 1

especially when there are many others offering similar services in the area.

“It’s a very competitive market,” he said.

As auto technology has advanced, the co-op evaluated how much of an investment it would take for them to stay relevant.

They decided to close the shop. I This does not mean layoffs, McMahon claimed.

Instead, the co-ops mechanics will be given work at the Ogilvie location repairing the company vehicles.

“We have a need for all our people,” McMahon said.

The auto repair equipment, like car lifts, will be left at the shop which will be made into a space for lease. The convenience store, gas, pet, feed and propane departments will continue to operate at the downtown location.

McMahon said the convenience and country store has been operating there for over 60 years and that the co-op has no intention of “walking away from downtown.”

The parts department, small engine repair and Cub Cadet outdoor power equipment will be moved to the co-op’s second Mora location at the south intersection of Highways

65 and 23, formerly FleetGo. Federated Co-op purchased the FleetGo from Shari Poissant in November for $225,000.

Since the purchase, the co-op has undertaken approximately $300,000 worth of changes and repairs to the building and land. McMahon explained that he wanted the store to give travelers a good first impression of Mora. These changes to “dress it up a little” include: • Moving electric lines from the front of the

store either around the back or under ground.

• Repaving the parking lot and including more space to display outdoor merchandise • new siding • new roof • updated heating, ventilation and air conditioning • adding an office and parts service desk inside the store.

While some of the changes have already taken place, McMahon estimated the majority of the work should be fin-

ished in the fall.

Federated has 215 employees co-op wide. McMahon said he believes these changes will be for the betterment of the town, the co-op, its patrons and its customers.

“We believe if this community...is stronger, then we are going to be stronger as a co-op,” he said. “If we are stronger as a coop, we can keep our costs down and better serve the customer.”

FirstLight named 2017 Top 150 Workplace

KIM TEPLEY | SUBMITTED

L-R: Julie Ray- Clinical Services Manager, Erlene Randall-Dietary Services Supervisor, Kim Carlson-VP Human Resources, June Juday-Operations Supervisor of Ambulance Services, Leann McMullen-Imaging Manager, Brenda Moos-Revenue Cycle Director, Becky Gallik-IT Director and Garrett Estenson-Rehabilitation Services Director.

FirstLight Health System has once again been named one of the Top 150 Workplaces in Minnesota by the Star Tribune. A complete list of those selected is available at StarTribune.com/ topworkplaces2017 and was published in the Star Tribune Top Workplaces special section on Sunday, June 25.

Produced by the same team that compiles the 26-year-old Star Tribune 100 report of the best-performing public companies in Minnesota, Top Workplaces recognizes the most progressive companies in Minnesota based on employee opinions measuring engagement, organizational health and satisfaction. The analysis included responses from over 69,000 employees at Minnesota public, private and nonprofit organizations.

The rankings in the Star Tribune Top 150 Workplaces are based on survey information collected by WorkplaceDynamics, an independent company specializing in employee engagement and retention. FirstLight was ranked

23rd out of 50 mid-sized companies.

Randy Ulseth, FirstLight’s CEO, comments “Every day, FirstLight employees demonstrate the core behaviors that make it a Top Workplace: excellence, teamwork and professionalism while taking the time to be active participants in their hometown communities.”

Star Tribune Publisher Michael J. Klingensmith said, “The companies in the Star Tribune Top 150 Workplaces deserve high praise for creating the very best work environments in the state of Minnesota. My congratulations to each of these exceptional companies.”

To qualify for the Star Tribune Top Workplaces, a company must have more than 50 employees in Minnesota.

Over 2,000 companies were invited to participate. Rankings were composite scores calculated purely based on employee responses.

Diversified Bronze breaks ground in Braham

BY SCOTT MCKINNEY NEWS@MORAMINN.COM

Diversified Bronze and Manufacturing broke ground on Monday, June 19, for its new site at the Braham Industrial Park. The company, founded by Loren Davis in 2007, creates standard and specialty parts out of bronze, steel, aluminum, brass, powdered metal and plastic.

Davis said that DBM plans to move into the new 10,000 square foot building on Sept. 22. “We moved into our current building at 725 Third Avenue Southeast in Cambridge back in 2012. We decided to explore getting our own place, as

we’re planning on immediate expansion into other product lines,” he said.

“Pricing had a lot to do with our decision. The city of Braham and the Kanabec County Economic Development Authority were gracious enough to look at the pricing, and it was much more competitive. The industrial park sits in Kanabec County, which gives us advantages in both the property price and the tax burden. DBM looks forward to being more active in the Braham area.”

PUBLIC HEARINGS CITY OF MORA NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS Notice is hereby given that the council for the City of Mora, Kanabec County, Minnesota will meet at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 18, 2017 in the Council Chambers, City Hall to consider, and possibly adopt, the proposed assessment for the improvement of the following streets by the construction or reconstruction of water and sanitary sewer mains, services, and appurtenances; storm water pipes and appurtenances; streets; curb & gutter; street lighting; and sidewalks or trails: 9th Street from the east line of Grove Street to the west line of Minnesota Trunk Highway 65; and Wood Street from the north line of 7th Street to the south line of 9th Street.

The proposed assessment is on file for public inspection at the city clerk’s office. The total amount of the project is $1,541,372. The total amount of the proposed assessment is $319,922. Adoption by the city council of the proposed assessment against benefiting property may occur at the hearing.

Such assessment is proposed to be payable in equal annual installments extending over a period of twenty (20) years, the first of the installments to be payable on or before the first Monday in January 2018, and will bear interest at the rate of four and one-half percent (4.5%) per annum from the date of the adoption of the assessment resolution. To the first installment shall be added interest on the entire assessment from the date of the assessment resolution to December 31, 2018. To each subsequent installment when due shall be added interest for one year on all unpaid installments.

PRE-PAYMENT You may at any time prior to certification of the assessment to the county auditor, pay all or a portion of the assessment on such property, with interest accrued to the date of payment, to the city clerk. No interest shall be charged if the entire assessment is paid within thirty (30) days of the adoption of the assessment resolution.

You may at any time thereafter, pay to the city clerk all or a portion of the amount of the assessment remaining unpaid, with interest accrued to December 31 of the year in which such payment is made.

Such payment must be made before November 15 or interest will be charged through December 31 of the succeeding year. If you decide not to prepay the assessment the rate of interest that will apply is four and one-half percent (4.5%) per annum.

APPEALS Written or oral objections will be considered at the meeting. No appeal may be taken to the amount of an assessment unless a signed written objection is filed with the city clerk prior to the hearing or presented to the presiding officer at the hearing.

The council may upon such notice consider any objection to the amount of a proposed individual assessment at an adjourned meeting upon such further notice to the affected property owners, as it deems advisable.

If an assessment is contested the

following procedure will be followed: 1. The city will present its case first by calling witnesses who may testify by narrative or by examination, and by the introduction of exhibits.

After each witness has testified, the contesting party will be allowed to ask questions. This procedure will be repeated with each witness until neither side has further questions.

2. After the city has presented all its evidence, the objector may call witnesses or present such testimony as the objector desires. The same procedures for questioning of the city’s witnesses will be followed with the objector’s witnesses.

3. The objector may be represented by counsel.

4. Minnesota rules of evidence will not be strictly applied; however, they may be considered and argued to the council as to the weight of items of evidence or testimony presented to the council.

5. The entire proceedings will be tape-recorded.

6. At the close of presentation of evidence, the objector may make final presentation to the council based on the evidence and the law.

No new evidence may be presented at this point.

7. The council may adopt the proposed assessment at the hearing.

An owner may appeal an assessment to district court pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 429.081 by serving notice of the appeal upon the mayor or the clerk of the city within thirty (30) days after the adoption of the assessment and filing such notice with the district court within ten (10) days after service upon the mayor or clerk.

DEFERRED PAYMENTS Under Minnesota Statutes, Sections 435.193 to 435.195 and Mora City Code, Sections 33.50 to 33.52, the council may, in its discretion, defer the payment of this special assessment for any homestead property owned by a person 65 years of age or older, one retired by virtue of a permanent and total disability, or a member of the National Guard or other reserves ordered to active military service for whom it would be a hardship to make the payments. When deferment of the special assessment has been granted and is terminated for any reason provided in that law, all amounts accumulated plus applicable interest, if any, become due. Any assessed property owner meeting the requirements of this law and the city ordinance adopted under it may apply to the city clerk for deferral of payment of this special assessment on their property.

Unger continues family tradition of service

BY ROBERT UNGER SUBMITTED

On May 24, Christopher Dennis Unger graduated from the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado with a Bachelor’s degree in behavioral science and was commissioned as a Second Lieutenant.

Second Lieutenant Unger is the grandson of Mora resident Robert D. Unger, who served in the Army for three years, and son of Robert E. Unger, who graduated from Mora High School in 1985, then from the United States Military Academy at West Point, New York and retired from the Army after 22 years of service.

Additionally, Unger’s mother, Cindi Unger served in the Army for six years and his aunt, Carol Varner, retired from the Navy after 35 years of service.

Unger was sworn in by his father and received his first salute, a military tradition, from his aunt. A total of 16 family and friends were able to attend the ceremony which included a speech by the secretary of the Air Force, the Honorable Secretary Heather Wilson and the Chair of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Joseph Dunford. The ceremony ended with a spectacular 20-minute air show

by Air Force Thunderbirds.

Unger had many memorable moments at the Air Force Academy, including being one of just a few dozen cadets to earn a perfect score on his physical fitness test and having his name permanent-

ly listed in the cadet gym; earning the Superintendent’s pin for having above a 3.0 in academics, physical fitness, and military bearing; flying to San Antonio with his cognitive learning professor to defend his thesis; and being one of two

FirstLight Health System recently awarded $8,000 worth of renewable scholarships to three local high school students pursuing a higher education in the health field.

Logan Hooker, a Hinckley-Finlayson High School graduate and Natalie Cahill, who graduated from Pine City High School. “We are privileged to support our area students as they further their knowledge, proving to be productive members in the medical field,” comments Randy Ulseth, CEO. FirstLight started this scholarship program in 2009 and has paid out over $150,000 since its inception.

cadets selected from each squadron to march in the 2017 presidential inauguration parade. But, if you ask Second Lieutenant Unger for his most memorable moment, he will talk about satisfaction of leading 30 new cadets through basic training, watching them transform from civilians to airmen.

Unger said the hardest part of academy life is learning to balance so many priorities. He said time management is essential and he believes that is biggest lesson he will take in his military life.

Being a military child (or military brat), Unger has lived in many places as a child, to include Kentucky, Hawaii, South Carolina, New York, Italy and Washington D.C. He had never been to Colorado before but loved that there are no, or very few, mosquitos. He said he also became quite the outdoor enthusiast. He now enjoys hiking and rock climbing. Unger’s first assignment will be in Misawa, Japan (north of Tokyo) as a contracting officer.

Unger said we never know what opportunities we will have in our life. It is important to take advantage of the opportunities and not let them slip away.

That is probably true for all of us.
