Epsom Native Stephanie Allen Inducted Into Stonehill College’s Honor Society

 

Epsom native Stephanie Allen was recently inducted into Stonehill College’s Honor Society, Lambda Epsilon Sigma. Allen is a member of Stonehill’s Class of 2013.

 

The purpose of the society is to recognize and promote scholarship at the College. Juniors and seniors who have attained a 3.5 cumulative grade point average are invited to apply for consideration. Acceptance into the society is based on evidence of academic achievement, of a pursuit of learning that extends beyond the classroom environment and of an ability to communicate effectively through writing.

 

Additionally, in order to be inducted into the society, the student must be recommended by faculty both from the student’s major and from outside of the student’s major.

 


 

Letter

 

To my constituents in Allenstown, Epsom, and Pittsfield:

This week the House met to consider Senate bills. SB343, creating a separate psychologists’ board, was debated at length and passed, 249-81. SB287, forbidding prescription data from being sold for marketing purposes, was amended to include the prescriber’s identification as well as the patient’s within the protected data, 226-106, and passed. SB409, allowing the use of marijuana for medical purposes, was amended to sunset in three years and passed, 236-96, without debate. Then SB225, reallocating some of the $15 fee for a vital records request from the state general fund to the town clerk, was debated at length before failing, 236-85.

 

After the Senate today killed a number of bills that the House strongly supported, leadership decided to add them onto Senate bills, as part of the usual House/Senate maneuvers at the end of a term. SB272, enabling towns to create truancy ordinances, was amended to have truancy records expunged once a child turns 18. Then an amendment was presented to add the content of HB1174. This amendment was debated briefly but passed 216-83. SB378, allowing municipalities to vote to remove snow from private roads and driveways, was also amended, 219-106, to incorporate HB1645 and passed, 222-105.

 

SB155, allowing businesses to deduct up to $25,000 in equipment expenses each year, up from $20K, was briefly debated. Then HB1405 was added and the bill passed, 230-76. SB295, increasing the research and development tax credit from $1M statewide each year to $2M, was debated and an amendment going back to $1M defeated, 72-232; then the content of HB1659 was added to this bill, 190-109, and the bill passed, 207-93.

 

Interested readers can email me for my newsletter, with more details than I can fit in a letter.

Battle Crossfit To Open In Epsom

 

Walking into Battle CrossFit’s new gym in Epsom will be a very different experience for those who are used to rows of treadmills, stationary bikes or walls of free weights in their gyms. Instead you will be greeted by wide open space, gymnastics rings, and pull-up racks. A CrossFit gym isn’t even called a gym, it’s a "box." Not only is the environment different, but for new CrossFit athletes, the workout regimen will be entirely new as well. Rather than workouts with a single goal in mind, such as weight loss or increased strength, CrossFit workouts are designed to make you fit across a broad spectrum of movements. The focus of these movements is functional fitness: basically, preparing you for everyday life. The classes always take place in a group setting and are led by a certified trainer.

 

Battle CrossFit is owned by husband and wife team Justin and Rachael Strevig. The two US Army veterans are dedicated to helping individuals become fit and healthy. "Our program is designed for scalability and applies equally well to all individuals regardless of age or fitness level," says Justin. "How many gyms provide you with personal training each and every time you workout?" asks Rachael. "The key to CrossFit is the camaraderie both within the gym and the larger CrossFit community. You have a whole team of people pulling for you all the time. This isn’t something you do by yourself."

 

CrossFit has recently exploded in popularity. Founded in 2000 by Greg Glassman there are more than 2500 CrossFit affiliates worldwide according to CrossFit.com. The annual CrossFit Games which crown the world’s fittest athlete are broadcast on ESPN and Bob Harper, renowned fitness trainer, has featured CrossFit workouts on NBC’s hit series The Biggest Loser.

 

CrossFit workouts or WODs (Workout of the Day) are based on functional movement and incorporate elements of gymnastics, weightlifting, and cardiovascular exercise. The workouts are short, usually no more than 20 minutes, and intense. They are never boring and rarely the same. WODs allow you to measure your improvement over time and are designed for broad rather than specific fitness. In other words, a person who trains and runs marathons may be a good and efficient runner but may not be good at lifting weights and a bodybuilder may be able to lift lots of weight but have trouble running a mile. CrossFit works to perfect the idea of a well rounded athlete. Says Justin, "There is a thrill in working to make yourself a better person and doing that with people who have the same goal."

 

Battle CrossFit opens its doors May 7th for the first on-ramp classes. The gym is located at 2008 Dover Road (Route 4) in Epsom, next to the Concord Hospital facility. For more information, please contact Justin or Rachael Strevig at 888-805-5114, [email protected], or visit the website at www.battlecrossfit.com.
