		<description><![CDATA[Hello, Two years into a nasty recession and those of us still standing should be leaner, meaner, and ready to rumble. Amidst the rubble, I see some local businesses that have actually begun to expand, seeing opportunity for growth and having the stones to go for it.

		<description><![CDATA[Hello, Yesterday, I listened to a classic Dylan tune, The Times, They Are A Changin&#8217; and never did it seem more relevant.

So when two local men decided to put much of their time and energy into re-starting a Salem farmers [...]]]></description>
