Ocean Spray and Decas Cranberry Sales have both claimed victory in their ongoing legal fight over sweetened dried cranberries. Ocean Spray has accused Decas of stealing its patented dried cranberry technology, while Decas has accused Ocean Spray of seeking to monopolize the sweetened dried cranberry market through frivolous lawsuits. Decas says it doesn’t use Ocean Spray’s [...]

Don’t wait until December to look for ways to trim your 2009 taxes. That will be too late to take advantage of some key tax breaks that require a little time to implement. So start making these moves now — before it’s too late to claim the write-offs on your ’09 return.

Re: Mathias Coad of Williamston
You might be the person to ask, since you are a teacher AND a historian! My mother attended school in Williamston from 1911 through 1913. Her father, Elmer Exelby, was the pastor of the Methodist Church in Williamston during that time period. I have been searching for a photograph of the public school she attended. Her promotion slip from 1912 is from Williamston Public Schools, Norma A. Speers, Teacher, and J.J. Hornberger, Superintendant. She would have been in the fourth grade in 1912. If you could point me in the direction of a photo of that school (if there is one) I would be greatly indebted.

Wandering cows in Lansing
In 1875, the Lansing City Council enacted the so-called "wandering cow" ordinance allowing
livestock to roam the capital's streets. The statue's purpose was to control dry grass while
providing free forage for families' livestock.
But a furor arose over the roaming cattle and their destructive ways. The local newspaper
was full of outrages attributed to the animals, including a report that a young girl was "attacked
by a vicious cow, and would have been killed but for the timely intervention of a passerby."
After weeks of complaints, the council relented and repealed the controversial ordinance.

acceptance as a member of the Association of Junior Leagues of America.
Local League volunteers had been contributing to the social, civic and cultural projects in the

Lansing's 'Stratosphere Man'
Arzeno Eugene Selden, an early aerial artist, was born Sept. 22, 1899 in Eagle Township. As
a mechanical engineer, he designed and built the equipment on which he performed a
handstand on top of a steel pole, 165 feet high, while the pole swayed back and forth.
Selden began his career in 1907 and soon became known as "The Stratosphere Man." He
also performed a slide for life, on a wire cable attached high on the steel rigging. He slid to the
ground more than one-fourth mile from the rigging, hanging by the back of his neck.
He died of a heart attack in 1951 while recovering from a fall.

BioPort, the manufacturer of anthrax vaccine, opened for business in Lansing on Sept. 5,

Over the ensuing 10 years, BioPort transitioned from a state facility to a private enterprise to a
publicly owned company, now known as Emergent BioSolutions, employing 350 skilled
employees.
