Mike Dick first grew dry peas in the 1990s. The weather didn't cooperate, and so the Munich, N.D., farmer quit raising them. But now he's growing them again and has begun raising faba beans, which are closely related to dry peas, as well.

Obituary: R. Richard Bartsch Oct. 26, 1940 – Nov. 20, 2020
Oct. 26, 1940 – Nov. 20, 2020
Richard Bartsch dedicated his life to peering into the building blocks of matter and energy that power the stars and savoring fresh air with friends and family beneath the open sky.
Over a decades-long career as an electrical engineer at Los Alamos National Laboratory, the nation’s premier nuclear research center, he authored or co-authored more than 90 research papers on energy and nuclear fusion and collaborated with scientists in Japan and Russia.
He died at home in Sequim, Washington Nov. 20, 2020, surrounded by family after a four-year battle with cancer. He was 80.
Known as Rick or Dick, he led a team of physicists experimenting with plasma and pulsed power as part of fusion research at the Controlled Thermonuclear Research Division at Los Alamos.

VerdeGo Aero, a hybrid-electric aerospace powertrain firm and tenant in Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University’s Research Park, has teamed up with the university to develop and commercialize patent-pending technology designed to mitigate electric aircraft noise.
Under an exclusive option agreement, VerdeGo Aero CEO Eric Bartsch and Executive Chair Erik Lindbergh will further develop the Embry-Riddle technology for commercialization.
“Although electric aircraft show great promise for reducing carbon emissions, fossil fuel use and operating costs, the propellers or rotors can be relatively noisy,” Bartsch explained. “Traditionally, electric aircraft rotors can spin faster to gain efficiency while also increasing noise levels, or spin slower and be less e
