BY RENÉE JEAN WILLISTON HERALD WILLISTON — Tage Carrier was smaller than his mother's hand when he was born, 14 weeks prema- ture and a mere 1 pound, 11 ounces. His first five years of life were spent on oxygen. The 7-year-old still needs oxygen at night, but was going strong without it at the March of Dimes walk Saturday.

He retired in April of 1997.

Densel was once married to Benita Reavis and Karen Lewandowsky. He married Elizabeth Framstad on August 27, 1989 in Minot. He was a truck driver for Minot Builders Supply before a vehicle accident

forced him to retire.

Densel was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He enjoyed hunting, fishing and watching movies.

His lov-ing family includes, wife, Elizabeth Webb, Minot; children, Densel Webb III, St. Louis, Missouri, Dianna Webb, New York, Jacob Lawson, Iowa, Lynnette Ofsthun, Minot, Eddette (Kyle) Ste-bleton, Williston, Matthew (Lori) Turcotte, Wasilla, Alaska; father, Densel Webb Sr, Troy, Missouri

Chantell Borseth, with her daughter Blaire, has known several people who had premature babies. She was also walking with the Craven Hagen Pediatric Clinic team.

"It can be a huge financial difficulty for the families who go through this," she said. "I want to help as

much as I can. If I wasn't here, I'd just be sitting on my couch drinking coffee. It's nice to get out and do something for a worthy cause. It's a Saturday well spent."

Collectively, the teams raised $27,000 — almost three times as much as last year. The local chairman of the walk, Ray Callahan was pleased and said he hoped the

event would continue to grow. Some of the proceeds from

the local event will be used locally for programs such as NICU, which provides support specialists to help families in the new-inten-sive care unit, and the rest will help fund research and other programs to promote healthy births.

MARCH OF DIMES: More than $27K raisedFrOm PAge A1

By GARREtt RICHIEForuM News service

Of the seven books, plays and pieces of music award-ed Pulitzer Prizes in 2015, one book focused on the history of a people central to Dakotan history.

Elizabeth Fenn's "En-counters at the Heart of the World: A History of the Mandan People" received the $10,000 prize in the his-tory category.

On pulitzer.org, the judges described the book as "an engrossing, original narra-tive showing the Mandans, a Native American tribe in the Dakotas, as a people with a history."

Fenn, who is currently an associate professor

and chair of the history department at Colorado University-Boulder, said she worked on the book for more than 10 years. She described the award as a "complete surprise" and "absolutely delightful shock."

Her interest in the Man-dan people began while working on her first book, "Pox Americana," which was published in 2001.

It focused on a devastating smallpox epidemic that swept the nation during the years of the Revolutionary War.

"That was kind of a hor-rific project in terms of its topic, but it introduced me to this stunning people who

lived beside the Upper Mis-souri River, and that was the Mandans," she said.

Fenn said she was im-pressed by the vast scale of the Mandan villages after they were established near current-day Mandan and Bismarck about 1450.

"I was just stunned by the richness of Mandan culture, by the size of their popula-tions, and I realized that this was almost a counterpoint to the more traditional early Americans story," Fenn said. "If I could tell the Mandan story then it would literally recenter early American history by telling it from the center of the continent."

GRAND FORKS — Every week or so, Grand Forks Dis-trict Judge Don Hager meets with adult offenders, not to hand down penalties, but to talk about treatment.

"It's me as a judge trying to get them to open up a little bit and ... tell me how they've been doing," Hager said.

Regular meetings with a judge are one piece of Grand Forks' District Court's Drug Court, a program that puts addicted offenders through treatment under the super-vision of the court, in the hope they will not come before the judge again with charges of drug possession or driving under the influ-ence.

The North Dakota Senate recently killed a bill that proponents argued would have made it easier to estab-lish problem-solving courts, such as Drug Courts, across the state.

Problem-solving courts have emerged as a differ-ent way of looking at court cases with treatment in mind. They are meant to treat the underlying prob-lems that may be driving an offender's criminal behavior, such as chemical addiction or mental illness.

Though Drug Court is the most common type of problem-solving court, oth-ers include Mental Health Court and Veterans Court.

Officials from the North Dakota Court System, Department of Corrections and the Protection and Advocacy Project testified before legislators in support of Senate Bill 2161, which ul-timately failed by a 6-41 vote in the Senate last week.

The bill would have established a longstanding committee composed of representatives from the criminal justice system, human services and the Leg-islature to examine whether there is a need and whether it would be feasible to put a problem-solving court in a jurisdiction and to make rec-ommendations to the North Dakota Supreme Court.

"It's been a broker deal," said Supreme Court Chief Justice Gerald Vandewalle. "We haven't had everyone sit-ting at the table discussing at the same time, 'Is this fea-sible? Is this sustainable?'"

BILL VOTED DOWNChairman of the Senate

Judiciary Committee Sen. David Hogue, R-Minot, said in part, the bill failed because the committee mir-rored too closely the Com-mission on Alternatives to Incarceration, which comes up for renewal Aug. 1, 2017.

Part of the commission's directive is to study the "expanded use of problem-solving court."

But court officials say the committee would have been doing something entirely different.

Whereas the commis-sion is largely made up of legislators and makes policy decisions, State Court Administrator Sally Holewa said the committee proposed by the bill would have done the planning.

"I'll use for an example, the DUI Court that Judge (Bradley) Cruff started down in Wahpeton," she said. "He wants to start it; he gets the money to do it. He can't find treatment, so he's

beating the bushes looking for treatment. He's calling up DHS and saying, 'Will you recognize evaluations done by a Minnesota person?' This committee would have done that work for him be-cause it would have brought everyone to the table ... iden-tified the specific providers, talked about the process for getting the evaluation from Minnesota recognized and paid for."

The Commission on Al-ternatives to Incarceration would not do that kind of work, Holewa said, saying it is not their role.

Hogue also raised con-cerns with the idea of problem-solving courts, adding whether or not other types of problem-solving courts, like mental health courts, should be created in North Dakota is a question for the legislators.

"Do you want to treat veterans differently in criminal court than you do other citizens? That's a threshold policy question," he said. "That question be-longs squarely in the policy branch of government."

Other legislators ex-pressed similar concerns. In a hearing on the bill in the House Judiciary Committee, Chairman Kim Koppelman, R-West Fargo, asked, "When does (the court) get so bi-furcated that the court is no longer the court?"

The Legislature has already authorized Drug Courts, but Mental Health Courts and Veterans Courts, of which there are none in the state, have not been authorized.

But Holewa said the com-mittee would not have side-stepped the Legislature.

"If you wanted to create mental health or veterans or homeless courts or prison reentry (Courts), sure we'd be going to the Legislature" for approval, she said.

She said the committee would have enabled its members to look at whether

there was a need for mental health, veterans or other courts in the state and then go to the Legislature to ask for approval, along with a plan for their implementa-tion to back up their pro-posal.

A TREATMENT-BASED SOLUTIONProblem-solving courts

have become a way for the courts to steer offenders to treatment rather than jail, a way to try to thwart the "revolving door."

There are five Adult Drug Courts in North Dakota -- two in Fargo and one each in Bismarck, Grand Forks and Minot -- according to Holewa. There are six ac-tive Juvenile Drug Courts statewide -- one each in Bis-marck, Devils Lake, Fargo, Grand Forks and Minot, and one shared by Jamestown and Valley City. Wahpeton holds an Adult DUI Court.

Former Judge Sonja Clapp, who retired in De-cember, was involved in set-ting up Grand Forks' Adult and Juvenile Drug Courts, which were launched in August 2008 and have collec-tively graduated 55 partici-pants as of mid-February.

The Drug Courts came at a time when they were being pushed. In 2007, at the request of the Commission on Alternatives to Incar-ceration, the Legislature approved funding for three more full-time positions in the Department of Correc-tions and Rehabilitation and four more full-time addic-tion counselors through Human Services, according to a memorandum prepared by Legislative Council.

The structure of Drug Court, said Clapp, is impor-tant to seeing participants succeed.

"Just like with Drug Court, if you have a court and other agencies oversee-ing their progress, you can ensure the fact that they are following the treatment protocol," she said. "

BY WENDY REUERFORUM NEWS SERVICE

FARGO — The wife of the 2014 North Dakota Teacher of the Year accused of hav-ing sex with a student in 2009 corroborated much of the testimony Aaron Knodel gave when he took the stand in his own defense Friday.

The suspended West Fargo teacher disputed a former student's claims that they had a sexual relationship, saying he only tried to help her outside the classroom with personal issues.

Knodel often ran his fingers over a small cross he kept clasped in his hands while he was on the stand in Cass County District Court. He choked back emotion while telling the jury what he has learned from being accused of having sex with a teen student six years ago.

"Just because you're try-ing to do the right thing, things do not always turn out OK," the 36-year-old Knodel said. "I've been a very dedicated teacher, to the detriment of my family sometimes because I put in a lot of time. "

Earlier this week, pros-ecutors presented evidence of 93 calls between Knodel and the student in late 2008 and early 2009. Lisa Gemar, a criminal intelligence ana-lyst, testified that she found five calls between 60 and 120 minutes long and three calls that were more than 120 minutes long. She found 23 calls between the student and Knodel after 10 p.m. and six after midnight, includ-ing one 240-minute call after midnight.

Knodel testified the stu-dent likely got his cellphone number from an informa-tion sheet meant for parents of Student Congress mem-bers. He said he talked with the student on the phone about problems she was hav-ing in her personal life.

"When she would call me, it was because, I'm not going to use the term emergency, but an issue she wanted to deal with or resolve or talk about," Knodel testified.

Knodel testified Friday that he recalled once when the student called him after midnight. He said he re-membered the call because he was on his way home from the Spitfire Bar and Grill in West Fargo, what he

described as a West Fargo teacher hot spot. He said his wife was in the car at the time.

When defense attorney Robert Hoy called Marie Knodel to the stand, she testified that she knew the student had called Knodel many times and saw the call logs from their family phone bill, which she pays.

She said it was not uncom-mon for her husband to help students outside of school hours.

Marie Knodel also testi-fied why her phone number was found in the student's cellphone that was entered earlier in the week as evi-dence. She said at one time, her husband's cellphone bat-tery was dying and Marie Knodel offered her number so the student could reach him.

The former student, now 23, testified Wednesday that after Knodel ended their relationship, he gave her his wife's phone number and said not to answer if his wife called. She then saved the number on her phone, listing it as "Don't."

Because Marie Knodel, 36, works as a parole officer for the state of North Dakota and often works with local law enforcement and pros-ecutors, the West Fargo Po-lice Department asked the state Bureau of Criminal Investigation to investigate the case.

Marie Knodel testified that she spoke to the state BCI agent who was inves-tigating the case on the phone, but decided against meeting him in person.

"I had no information

about any contact with the student and I told [the agent] that Aaron was a good man and I didn't have any information for him," Marie Knodel said as she wiped away tears.

"So instead of giving up information that might clear him, you've now kept it to yourself until the day of the trial," said state Assistant Attorney Gen-eral Jonathan Byers, who is prosecuting the case.

"I didn't think [It would go to trial.]" she replied. "Me not giving a statement to law enforcement does not mean I cannot tell you the truth in a trial."

Marie Knodel also testi-fied Friday that she never saw a text from the former student to her husband.

The student testified Wednesday that her rela-tionship with Knodel ended when she "broke the rules" and texted him before he made initial contact on his 30th birthday, March 9, 2009, and his wife saw the text.

Aaron Knodel testified he asked the student in March 2009 not to contact him anymore after he noticed a subtle advance from her and later confronted her at West Fargo High School about a rumor that began to circu-late about them.

"I told her I had heard a rumor, I was concerned about that rumor and I believe she had started that rumor," Knodel testified. "She denied it. I did not believe it. Whether she had started this rumor or not, I was no longer going to have communication with her outside of my class."

Last week, the North Da-kota House made the hard decision to introduce a de-layed bill that would fix the antiquated oil tax structure in North Dakota. This is an example of solid leadership in the face of what was sure to be politically-motivated attacks from the Democrats. But with the large trigger looming, doing nothing was not an option.

House Majority Leader Al Carlson (R-Fargo), Sen-ate Majority Leader Rich Wardner (R-Dickinson) and the Finance and Tax Com-mittees worked diligently to come up with a bill that could be accepted by all parties involved. This was a very difficult task involving

hours of discussion with tribal leaders, industry, and legislators. What resulted from these efforts is a solid piece of legislation that will bring about needed, signifi-cant reform.

Unfortunately, the hard work being done in commit-tee was met with nothing but disdain and personal attacks from Democratic leadership. While some of them ran to hold news con-ferences and tout doomsday scenarios, others were focused on getting meaning-ful work done to benefit the people of North Dakota.

The amendments put forward by Senators Cook (R-Mandan) and Triplett (D-Grand Forks) are an exam-

ple of how true bipartisan leadership is supposed to work. The amendments, as drafted, will eliminate the trigger starting December 1st and change the overall tax rate to 10% unless oil prices average above $90 a barrel. At $90 or above, the rate is 11%. At the highest rate, it is a 4.3% reduction in revenues in exchange for a 56.5% loss if the trigger hits. In addition, should the large trigger hit, this maxi-mum six month window gives oil companies an in-centive to increase produc-tion and reactivate rigs that have been laid down.

The goal of these amend-ments is to provide a flat, workable tax when oil

prices are low, encouraging production and stability when it is needed most. A! nd if prices do at some point rebound, the tax increases to 11% and the state benefits from higher oil prices.

Senator Triplett, de-spite pressures from her own caucus, has played a crucial role in working with Republicans, industry and tribal leaders to bring forth a workable solution. While the remainder of the Democratic caucus manipu-lates numbers to fit their arguments and plays petty games to undermine their own members, Republicans took the initiative and de-veloped workable solutions

to the concerns brought forward during three days of hearings.

While the Democrats do nothing but complain, Republicans responsibly set out to do the hard thing. -There is no one-size-fits-all legislation that will ap-pease all parties, but that’s what true compromise is about. We feel that with the amendments proposed we have developed common sense legislation that is an amicable compromise for all involved.

Rep. Craig Headland(R-Montpelier)

Sen. Jessica Unruh(R-Beulah)

Sometimes subjects are best left undis-cussed. Elaboration leads to embarrass-ment. This has always been the case with the office of lieutenant governor.

Even though the office runs back into colonial times, the duties and functions continue to be a mystery. They vary widely from state to state. The job is neither legis-lative nor executive.

States have always thought it wise to have someone ready to assume the role of chief executive should the governor have a misfortune and not be able to continue in office. So they allay their fears with this standby official.

But not all states worried about that con-tingency. Five states have never created the office, thereby challenging the need for such an officer. In fact, Oregon didn’t have a lieutenant governor and just made a smooth transition in February when the governor left under fire and the secretary of state took over.

The only job most lieutenant governors have in common is presiding over the state senate - a make-work assign-ment that an honored senator could handle in his/her spare time.

Just to put the record straight, the North Dakota lieuten-ant governor became full time in 1976 when the legislature put the office in charge of federal planning.

Then in 1980, Governor Allan Olson wrote an executive order prescribing the duties of his lieutenant governor. There would be no loafing on his watch. Succeeding gov-ernors have followed his prescription.

As a consequence, the lieutenant governor in North Da-kota has a full plate, much of it loaded with the governor’s lunch.

But other states have not been so neat. In fact, only 21 states elect the two jointly.

In five states, candidates run separately in the primary and then run as a team in the general election. In the 17 states that elect governors and lieutenant governors separately, the lieutenant governor makes all sorts of cam-paign promises, none of which fits the governor’s agenda. In these states, there is always political trouble.

You may wonder why we’re discussing this mundane topic when elaboration will do little to define or improve it. But the PEW Research people have issued a new story about lieutenant governors with the claim that lieutenant governors are taking on larger roles in state governments.

The evidence is contradictory.Much of the PEW report consisted of rosy comments

from lieutenant governors who came up with a litany of glowing projects that proved they were changing the world.

Some of these lieutenants can’t be trusted when the governor leaves the state and his/her powers are left in their hands. In New Jersey, the lieutenant governor threw parties in the governor’s residence while he was gone.

In California, he granted pardons and called a special legislative session. So did the lieutenant governor in Ken-tucky. In Florida, the lieutenant governor resigned last year amid a growing criminal investigation of internet gambling.

Can you give these jokers more authority?The Boston Globe called the office the most useless job

in the state. Five of the last nine Massachusetts lieutenant governors left early. Illinois has a measure on the ballot to abolish the office in 2016.

California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom goes to his office once a week with the claim that “there’s no reason... It’s just so dull.”

With these conflicting reports, it is difficult to tell wheth-er lieutenant governors are coming or going. In North Dakota, at least, we know what he is doing. He’s a good team member.

Arizona elects a mine inspector. That must be more bor-ing than being lieutenant governor in California.

Lloyd Omdahl was the 34th Lieutenant Governor of North Dakota, taking office after Ruth Meiers died in 1987 under Gov. George Sinner was re-elected in 1988. He is also a former political science professor at the University of North Dakota.

We all have our stereo-types. They circulate be-cause each contains a kernel of truth. We’ve all known a heavy person who is jolly. But are all heavy people jolly? Heavens, no! We know heavyweight grouches. Or maybe we have love handles ourselves -- and we know we’re not always jolly.

In the same way, “welfare queens” are a stereotype. You’ve read about them, and may have even known one personally. They exist: The woman who doesn’t work and spends welfare monies meant for her children on beer, cigarettes, alcohol and drugs, nightlife and gam-bling. But are all -- or even most -- of those receiving benefits welfare queens?

The statistics -- the actual data, from records kept by government accountants -- say only a small percentage of welfare recipients abuse the system. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t go after welfare queens, even if they compose, say, only 1 to 8 per-cent of the total. We decid-edly should.

But what happens when we get carried away and begin slashing welfare based on a collective stereotype that harms the innocent? We wind up with hungry fami-lies, and an ironic truth: that we’ve spent more to catch a few cheats than their fraud has cost the taxpayer.

There is currently a push to slash welfare rolls in sev-eral states because they’re having budget shortfalls. One such state is Kansas, which is facing a $143 mil-lion budget shortfall for 2016. As a result, lawmakers and Gov. Sam Brownback are looking for spending cuts. They’ve chosen the poorest among them to take the cuts.

But, before I give you the details of the Kansas Legis-lature’s welfare cuts, I need to mention a program to purge drug users on welfare, because it’s relevant. There is a perception that a good percentage of welfare recipi-ents are drug users. Identify-ing and tossing them off the public assistance rolls could save millions of dollars, it was figured.

Accord-ing to the conservative National Review, 12 states (Alabama, Arizona, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee and Utah) instituted drug-testing programs for welfare recipients. Think Progress, a liberal publica-tion, identified seven.

Both magazines gathered studies that found that rates of drug use among recipients was the same (and in some cases, less) than drug use by the general population. The total cost of identifying drug users was $7,000 per person. In Kansas, 11 welfare recipients out of a total 2,783 applicants tested positive for drugs, at a cost of $40,000.

These are monies, amount-ing to over $1 million for all the states, that could be spent better on hungry chil-dren. As the programs con-tinue, the costs will grow. All this because of a stereotype of the poor. Of note: Middle class and wealthy recipients of government cash are not tested for drug use.

Now, to the Kansas “re-form” plan: Citizens who qualify, based on low income, will be limited to withdraw-ing $25 per day from their benefits, capped at three years. Lawmakers added a ton of restrictions where the withdrawals cannot take place: movie theaters, nail salons, pools, spas, liquor stores, jewelry stores, casi-nos, racing facilities, tattoo parlors, cruise ships, and so forth. Fair enough, even if the liquor store’s ATM is closer than a bank.

What isn’t fair is the belief that Kansans are actu-ally spending their welfare benefits in spas and liquor stores, even if they with-

draw their benefits there. Jordan Weissmann, writing in Business Insider, re-ported on a 2013 study by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, using welfare tracking data. The finding: Welfare re-cipients spend their money pretty much like the rest of us, that is, on rent, food and transportation.

Actually, those receiving public assistance spent less in every category than the general public. Many are working poor (welfare has work requirements). Those who don’t work are children, elderly or disabled.

Yet, the stereotype persists of luxury spending on items the rest of us can’t afford. It’s not just a bad rap. The justification for these restric-tions, like supposed wide-spread drug use, is based on urban myths.

Speaking of urban myths, Arthur Delaney, in the Huffington Post, uncovered a dozen claims in letters to the editor, news stories and even a congressman’s speech on the House floor that follow the same theme: An overweight welfare recipient buys 10 to 20 pounds of king crab legs in front of a seeth-ing, non-welfare-receiving customer who can’t afford them. A persistent coinci-dence.

There is fraud in welfare. Some make unwise choices; others are spendthrifts. But the vast majority receiving benefits are like the rest of America: hard-working, paying their bills and buying (as inexpensively as they can find), nutritious food to feed their families.

But the Kansas Legisla-ture, going on urban myths, is reducing public assistance to balance a budget, in a state where the poor have increased, and the wealthy escape being asked to help out.

Something about this strikes me as simply unfair.

Dear Annie: Two years ago, I made a big mistake. I married a widower and agreed to move into his house in a large city that is a 30-minute drive from the small town I love living in.

I now realize that I ab-solutely hate living in the city and, more importantly, living in the home that he and his late wife picked out and decorated together. Ini-tially, he said I could make changes to the house, but the only changes he is will-ing to make involve replac-ing worn-out things with newer versions of the exact same style and color. I thought I could redecorate using some of his things and some of mine to make a home of our own. Instead, I feel like a permanent houseguest.

I love my husband, and our relationship is wonder-ful except for this issue. Here’s the real problem: I recently learned that I have metastatic breast cancer. I cannot bear the thought of living what’s left of my life in his house and in this city.

Three years ago, he said he’d move into a condo in five years. Last month, he said the same thing. I know he’s not ready. But he is 81, and I am 70, and it’s time to downsize. He knows how I feel, because we’ve had quite a few discussions

about it. But because he’s most likely going to outlive me, I don’t feel it’s fair to ask him to move to another place when he doesn’t want to.

He owns a condo in my hometown

that he rents out. I own a house that is rented out, although mine still has a small mortgage on it. I’m thinking of asking him not to renew the rental on his condo so we can stay there some of the time and in his home the rest of the time. I am so torn inside. What do you think? -- T.

Dear T.: We think you have suggested an excellent compromise -- live in the condo part of the time, and in his house for the rest. You also could stop renting your house and live there part of the time. Should your husband outlive you, he can move wherever he chooses. Right now, you should not be stressed about your living situation, and we hope your husband cares enough to make you as comfortable as possible. We think he will want to do whatever he can.

Dear Annie: You printed a letter from “M.W.,” who doesn’t like to travel be-cause she suffers from mo-tion sickness.

When I lost the sight in one eye, my ophthalmolo-gist said I’d no longer get airsick or carsick. He said a NASA astronaut discov-ered that by closing one eye, the dizziness from the effects of being weightless went away. He was right. I can now fly and look out the plane window or read while riding in a car and suffer no ill effects.

I have told several people who suffer from carsick-ness to close one eye or wear an eye patch, and they have reported back that it worked for them. Maybe this will help others. -- One Advantage

Dear Advantage: Thanks for the interest-ing suggestion. We hadn’t heard of this before, and we hope our readers who have this problem will try your solution.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Conservative invest-ments or proven formulas will help to improve your financial situation. Be pru-dent. Unproven or risky purchases can do lasting damage to your reputation and personal life.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Don’t rely on others to tell you the truth. All decisions must be made on your own terms. Research will be imperative. Family tension will escalate if not dealt with quickly.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Strive to bring atten-tion to social issues that you care about. You will gain support, but also face detrac-

tors. The better prepared you are, the more favorable the response will be.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Bottling up your emotions will result in tension and frustration. Even if the mat-ter is a sensitive one, you must honestly acknowledge your feelings if you hope to move forward.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Deception is apparent. Trust your intuition. Someone will withhold vital informa-tion in order to further his or her interests. Don’t let anyone pressure you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- A change of scenery will provide clues to the solution of a current dilemma. At first you may question what unfolds, but as the day pro-gresses, everything will fall into place.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Stimulate your imagi-nation by trying something amusing or entertain-ing. This will also help to serve as a diversion from a troublesome situation that has been hovering in your thoughts.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-

Dec. 21) -- You will have to dig deep if you want to find the answers you are looking for. Friends or family will tell you what you want to hear, not what you need to know.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- This is not the time to lend or borrow mon-ey. Be open about business matters. Your reputation will suffer if you make secre-tive arrangements or deals.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A change in the way you earn your living is apparent. You will meet someone who offers important information about a career opportunity. Weigh the pros and cons be-fore you make a move.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Fluctuating health is-sues should be investigated. Something that seems mi-nor will get worse if it’s not dealt with in a timely man-ner. Keep accurate records of your medical history.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Love and romance are in a high cycle. You will be the life of the party, so get out with friends and enjoy yourself. A new connection will intrigue you.

Gelett Burgess, a writer, poet and humorist who died in 1951, said, “If in the last few years you haven’t dis-carded a major opinion or acquired a new one, check your pulse.”

Students sometimes ask, “I find discarding difficult. What should I do?”

The naive answer is: Throw losers and keep win-ners. But discards should send information to partner. If you are pitching from a suit not yet led by either side, your card is an attitude signal -- as in this deal.

South opens and closes the auction with three spades. West starts the defense with three rounds of hearts. East plays high-low to show his doubleton, but what should he discard at trick three?

Assuming the third heart is standing up, South pre-sumably has 7-3-2-1, 7-3-1-2, 7-3-3-0 or 7-3-0-3 shape. In the first three cases, East wants partner to shift to a diamond at trick four, not a club. (And in the last, a club shift is vi-tal only if South has exactly queen-doubleton of clubs.) The club ace can wait, but the diamond king needs to be established. So East should discard the diamond nine. He could throw the club four, but if you can afford to, it is better to signal with a high, encouraging card than with a low, discouraging card.

If West shifts to a diamond, the contract fails. If he leads a club, though, declarer gets his diamond loser away on dum-my’s club king, with the spade king as the dummy entry.

BY DAVE CAMPBELLAP SPORTS WRITER

ST. PAUL, Minn. (AP) — The Minnesota Wild were flailing in mid-January, badly needing a boost in the net when Devan Dubnyk arrived just in time.

The lanky goalie still has a lot more big saves to make this spring.

"That's what we're hoping for here," coach Mike Yeo said, "and I think there's more to this story."

The next chapter will start in Chicago.

Zach Parise scored twice, including a short-handed, highlight-reel goal to get Minnesota going in the first period, and the Wild beat the St. Louis Blues 4-1 on Sunday in Game 6 of the first-round series to advance to the Western Conference semifinals for a rematch with the Blackhawks.

"I was thinking about it over the last couple days. It just feels right," said Dubnyk, who made 30 saves. "It feels right for our group to be where we are and to continue to move forward. That's why it's easy to go out and play and feel like we're going to win, because we've done it all year."

Dubnyk made 66 saves over the last two games, resolutely responding to the 6-1 defeat here on Wednes-day that let the Blues tie the series. The Wild outscored

the Blues 8-2 after that, de-spite being outshot 68-40.

The building was buzz-ing from the start, befitting of the occasion to see the Wild celebrate a postsea-son advancement at home for the first time. The Wild won three of their previous nine playoff series, all with Game 7 victories on the road. The crowd serenaded Dubnyk at every oppor-tunity, with that catching "Duuuuub!" cheer.

"There was a play in the third period where they got forecheck pressure, and he kind of hangs on to the puck and shows some unreal com-posure," Yeo said, adding: "When your goalie's playing confident, when the heat is on, I think that the rest of the group feeds off that."

Parise's relentless play was contagious, too.

"I try to be a lead-by-exam-ple type of guy," said Parise, who tied for the franchise postseason lead with 22 points in 24 games, five fewer than Marian Gaborik played in.

The Wild were killing an early penalty when Parise snagged a loose puck in the neutral zone, raced away from Blues defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk and trig-gered a huge roar from the crowd with that bad-angle shot that slipped between goalie Jake Allen's right arm and the near post into

the far side of the net."I was a little too aggres-

sive on it. I should have just let him stay to the outside and take the middle away," said Shattenkirk, who leads the NHL with eight assists this postseason. "That was a tough one to swallow, espe-cially that early."

Allen was disheartened afterward.

"Two terrible goals again. I just let us down," said Al-len, who made 11 saves.

Justin Fontaine also scored for the Wild, prompt-ing Blues coach Ken Hitch-cock to pull Allen for Brian Elliott with 8:41 left in the second period. T.J. Oshie's first goal of the series came with 4 seconds left before the second intermission to spark the Blues, who out-shot the Wild 27-11 over the last two periods.

Parise's next goal came on a rebound of Jason Pomin-ville's attempt early in the third, though, and Dub-nyk and the Wild were in lockdown mode after that. Nino Niederreiter added an empty-net goal, steering the Blues toward their third straight first-round ouster.

Dubnyk made a big save soon after the St. Louis change when Chris Porter crashed the net on his shot from the slot. The puck was dislodged during the scrum in the crease but after the whistle, and a replay review

upheld the no-goal call. Porter was so upset on the bench afterward, he was caught on camera snapping the blade off his stick.

Only one of the six games in the series was decided by less than three goals, a 4-2 win by the Wild in Game 1, and the average margin was 3.2.

"Closing out a series is always hard. You obviously expect the opposition to bring a great game, and they did that," Parise said.

The Blackhawks, who beat Nashville in six games to move on, knocked the Wild out in six games in the second round last year and in five games in the first round the year before that. The Blues are used to this. This was their 10th straight postseason loss when facing elimination.

The Central Division champions could experi-ence some turnover this summer, and Hitchcock's job might not be immune to the changes.

"Hitch has been the rea-son why we've been here for four years. He's hard on us, but he does it because he knows the right way and how to get to this position," Shattenkirk said. "You can never take that away from the way he coaches. He coaches fundamentals. It's something we needed, and we were able to get here because of him."

SEATTLE (AP) — Seattle Mariners manager Lloyd McClendon thought he saw strike three. Home plate um-pire Sean Barber disagreed.

Given another chance, the Minnesota Twins' Shane Robinson singled to lead off the third inning and scored on Joe Mauer's double. An inning later, McClendon was still upset enough that he got in an argument with Barber after a visit to the mound and was ejected.

Well after McClendon's ejection, the Mariners lost 4-2 after Mauer hit a two-run triple with two outs in the 11th inning Sunday.

One missed strike didn't seem to have nearly as much to do with Seattle's loss as the offense going 0 for 12 with runners in scoring position. The Mariners stranded runners on third in the fourth, fifth, sixth and eighth innings.

"We played decent base-ball, we just didn't get hits when it counted." McClen-don said. "That's not going to get it done."

Mariners starter Roenis Elias was recalled from Triple-A Tacoma to make his first start of the season. He took the rotation spot of

Hisashi Iwakuma, who was put on the DL on Friday with a strained muscle under his right arm. Iwakuma will be out 2-to-4 weeks.

In the fourth inning, McClendon walked out to the mound to talk to Elias. After the meeting broke up, he argued with Barber

as he was walking back to the dugout, steadily getting more animated before being thrown out.

"I thought he had a strike-out there in the one inning, but they ended up getting a run out of that one," Mc-Clendon said. "He had strike three, and the guy gets a

double and a run scores."Elias appreciated McClen-

don's position."I thought he went out

there to fight for it," Elias said through a translator. "Those were close pitches that didn't go for strikes, and he saw what I saw. It was nice of him to go out there."

NEW YORK (AP) — Alex Rodriguez is one big swing from matching Willie Mays. Whether the New York Yankees would cel-ebrate that achievement — or pay for it, for that matter — remains to be seen.

Rodriguez hit his 659th home run to move within one of Mays for fourth place on baseball's career list, and the Yankees took advantage of several mistakes by the suddenly sloppy New York Mets in a 6-4 victory Sunday night.

"Willie was my father's favorite player. I remember hearing about Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle all the time. He's one of my heroes," Rodriguez said.

The Yankees and Rodri-guez have a $30 million mar-keting agreement that calls for him to receive $6 million each for up to five accom-plishments, payable within 15 days of designation by the team. The accomplish-ments were contemplated to be home runs 660, 714, 755, 762 and 763.

But with A-Rod's career tarnished by performance-enhancing drugs, the Yan-kees are thinking about letting the milestones pass without making a designation, which could lead to another legal fight between the sides.

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Kurt Busch has spent time this year in a Delaware courtroom, then on NAS-CAR's sidelines as he served a three-race suspension for an alleged domestic assault on a former girlfriend.

Now he has made a trip to Victory Lane, where Busch hoped his victory Sunday at Richmond International Raceway will help him close one of the messiest chapters of his volatile career.

"Standing on the truth the whole time, that gave me the feeling of when I do get back to the car, it's going to be easy to focus, and I think I've shown that," said Busch, who still has a no-contact order against him that was issued in February by a Delaware Family Court judge. The judge ruled that Busch likely assaulted ex-girlfriend Patricia Driscoll in September.

The 2004 series champion dominated the rain-delayed NASCAR Sprint Cup race that was originally sched-uled for Saturday night under the lights.

The Stewart-Haas Racing driver led a career-best 291 of the 400 laps on the 0.75-mile oval, outrunning team-mate Kevin Harvick over the final dozen laps to end a 35-race winless streak.

Earlier in his return, he said he was trying too hard.

"I think I might have been driving too hard, too much of a chip on my shoulder, so to speak," he said, adding that he realized last week-end that there is danger in driving along the line that separates effectively aggres-sive and overly aggressive.

One week later, he's already secured a spot in NASCAR's 10-race playoff.

"We're winners in April. It feels good," he said. "Plenty of time to do fun things to build the team up, get stronger, learn from all these races coming up and continue to go forward."

"Like (team owner) Gene Haas said: One win is great. I want four or five more."

Harvick, meanwhile, fin-ished in the top two for the seventh time in nine races, but said he had to rally after his car struggled on one set of tires and drifted back into the pack.

The race looked much like the Xfinity Series event Friday night in which Denny Hamlin led 248 of 250 laps and only lost the lead during green flag pits stops. This time, there were actual green flag lead changes, but only two — when Busch passed Joey Logano after 94 laps to take the lead, and when Jamie McMurray passed Busch after 262 laps.

Busch regained the lead under caution and never relinquished it, beating Harvick to the finish by 0.754 seconds. The victory was the 26th of Busch's career and second at Richmond.

Jimmie Johnson rallied from a No. 36 starting spot to grab third. McMurray was fourth and pole-sitter Logano, who led the first 94 laps, was fifth. Rookie Chase Elliott, making his second start in NASCAR's premier series, finished 16th.

McMurray's pass came during a series of green flag stops, and when a caution came out on lap 270, only three cars were on the lead lap, including Busch, who had just pitted. He stayed out, regained the lead and slowly pulled away from Justin Allgaier, who got up front because of the green flag stops.

"We just had a really good car after 40 or 50 laps," Mc-Murray said.

Busch leads 291 laps in dominating Richmond victory

KATHMANDU, Nepal (AP) — Sleeping in the streets and shell-shocked, Nepal-ese cremated the dead and dug through rubble for the missing Sunday, a day after a massive Himalayan earth-quake killed more than 2,200 people. Aftershocks torment-ed them, making buildings sway and sending panicked Kathmandu residents run-ning into the streets.

The cawing of crows mixed with terrified screams as the worst of the aftershocks — magnitude 6.7 — pummeled the capital city. It came as planeloads of supplies, doc-tors and relief workers from neighboring countries began arriving in this poor Hima-layan nation. No deaths or injuries were reported from the early Sunday afternoon quake, but it took an emo-tional toll.

"The aftershocks keep coming ... so people don't know what to expect," said Sanjay Karki, Nepal country head for global aid agency Mercy Corps. "All the open spaces in Kathmandu are packed with people who are

camping outdoors. When the aftershocks come you cannot imagine the fear. You can hear women and children crying."

Saturday's magnitude 7.8

earthquake spread horror from Kathmandu to small villages and to the slopes of Mount Everest, triggering an avalanche that buried part of the base camp packed

with foreign climbers pre-paring to make their summit attempts. At least 17 people died there and 61 were in-jured.

The earthquake centered

outside Kathmandu, the capital, was the worst to hit the South Asian nation in over 80 years. It destroyed swaths of the oldest neigh-borhoods of Kathmandu, and was strong enough to be felt all across parts of India, Bangladesh, China's region of Tibet and Pakistan.

By Sunday afternoon, au-thorities said at least 2,169 people had died in Nepal alone, with 61 more deaths in India and a few in other neighboring countries. At least 721 of them died in Kathmandu alone, and the number of injured nation-wide was upward of 5,000. With search and rescue ef-forts far from over, it was unclear how much the death toll would rise.

But outside of the oldest neighborhoods, many in Kathmandu were surprised by how few modern struc-tures — the city is largely a collection of small, poorly constructed brick apartment buildings — collapsed in the quake. While aid workers cautioned that many build-ings could have sustained serious structural damage, it was also clear that the death toll would have been far higher had more buildings caved in.

Aid workers also warned that the situation could be far worse near the epicenter. The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake was centered near Lamjung, about 80 kilometers (50 miles) north-west of Kathmandu, in the Gorkha district.

Roads to that area were blocked by landslides, hindering rescue teams, said chief district official Prakash Subedi. Teams were

trekking through mountain trails to reach remote vil-lages, and helicopters would also be deployed, he said by telephone.

Local aid worker Matt Darvas said in a statement issued by his group, World Vision, that he heard that many remote mountain vil-lages near the epicenter may have been completely buried by rock falls.

The villages "are literally perched on the sides of large mountain faces and are made from simple stone and rock construction," Darvas said. "Many of these villages are only accessible by 4WD and then foot, with some vil-lages hours and even entire days' walks away from main roads at the best of times."

Nepal's worst recorded earthquake in 1934 mea-sured 8.0 and all but de-stroyed the cities of Kath-mandu, Bhaktapur and Patan.

With people fearing more quakes, tens of thousands of Nepalese spent Saturday night outside under chilly skies, or in cars and public buses. They were jolted awake by strong aftershocks early Sunday.

"There were at least three big quakes at night and early morning. How can we feel safe? This is never-ending and everyone is scared and worried," said Kathmandu resident Sundar Sah. "I hardly got much sleep. I was waking up every few hours and glad that I was alive."

As day broke, rescuers aid-ed by international teams set out to dig through rubble of buildings — concrete slabs, bricks, iron beams, wood — to look for survivors.

“We now have three types of cranes in our fleet to provide training and certification. It has made a remarkable difference in the program,” Deanette Piesik, CEO of TrainND. With the $250,000 TrainND was able to meet the demand of the crane training in the Wil-liston area.

With the additional $69,000, TrainND will pur-chase a newer Semi-Truck and van trailer to enhance their Commercial Driver’s License Training Program. “A CDL is needed for many types of jobs in the oil and gas industry.

ARLETA’SBOUTIQUEThis boutique located

in Carolville, is a one of a kind boutique in Williston. Arleta is the owner of this boutique which features organic clothes, fine jewelry, purses, and all product is American made.

“Last summer I went to Walmart to buy a shirt because there are limited options in Williston, as soon as I bought a shirt I saw several other women wear-ing the same shirt. I wanted to open a place that you can buy affordable clothing and wear something not every-one has. I only buy two or three of the same thing so I find it will be harder to have the same clothes as someone else,” said Arleta Wrincle

Arleta’s boutique is open Thursday-Sunday from noon to 6 p.m. For more infor-mation regarding Arleta’s Boutique call 773-818-3972.

WSCTRAVELSTOITALYWilliston State College stu-

dents, faculty, staff, and some

community members went on a voyage overseas to Italy in March. During their stay in Italy Pompeii, Rome, Vatican City, Ostia Antica, The Tus-can Countryside, Florence, and Venice were just a few of their major destinations.

“You would be walking down the street in Rome and there would be build-ing 200 to 300 years old and you could turn a corner and then there was one that was 2000 years old. It was simply amazing how old everything was and how much it is trea-sured,” said Kim Weismann Arts and Humanities Chair at WSC.

From museums and gondola rides to piazzas and food, each moment there was a learning experience. “My absolute favorite part of the trip was spending time on a family farm in Tuscany. Lunch was planned for us and we were able to sample the cheese, bread, salami, pasta, olive oil and wine all produced there,” said Andrea Heller, WSC Bookstore Manager

“If I ever get the chance to go back that will be my first destination.” said Katie Peterson “I enjoyed getting to experience some true Italian culture. We were able to learn to cook Ital-ian food, experiencing an Italian farm, had an Italian BBQ prepared for us by our tour guide’s friends, and learned Italian culture from our amazing tour guide.” Peterson continued.

The group who traveled to Italy will be giving a pre-sentation to the public with details of their trip, Tuesday Aug. 28 7 p.m. in room 116 in Stevens Hall. For more information, contact Kim Weismann at 701-774-4503

Success with

MeaningCristy

LeBaron

Are you looking to experi-ence the joy that comes with building the life you pictured for yourself ? If you are like the majority of us, your answer to that question is, "yes."

The most important step towards experiencing that joy and success in life is to know yourself; to become self aware. Yet, what is "self awareness"? What does it mean to be "self aware"? I suppose self awareness could be explained in a number of ways, all point-ing in different directions; however, the specific type of self awareness that I am talking about is to be aware of where you are, and where you would like to be.

I know at this point you're probably thinking some-thing along the lines of, "become self aware…how do I do that again?" I am going to share a few abso-lutely priceless methods for knowing yourself, in an all encompassing sort of way, that I learned from The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth; written by a dear friend of mine, John Maxwell.

Following your passion is a risk, but in the grand scheme of things, the risks we regret are the ones we don’t take.

Building Self Awareness1. Who are You?If I were ask what your

strengths are, what would you say? Would it be easy for you to come up with a list of strengths, or would you rattle off a few generic answers?

We get so used to hav-ing these go-to answers for questions about ourselves that we forget what our most basic qualities are. We stop taking a personal inventory, or maybe we’ve never taken one in the first place. Knowing the answers to these questions gives us our first glimpse into

who we are, where we are, and which direction we want to be headed.

So…Step One

- Answer these ques-tions:

A. What are your strengths?

B. What are your weakness-es?

C. What are your inter-ests?

D. What are your opportu-nities?

2. Which category do you fall into?

This is a very interest-ing step in John Maxwell's process of self awareness. There are three differ-ent types of people in the world. By identifying which person you are, you will get a real sense of how near or far you are from living a life that you are satisfied with. Remember, no matter which category you fall into, there is a specific direction for your life that you can find, and you can walk in.

Step two - Identify which person you are:

A. Those who don’t know what they want to do.

These people often feel confused. There is no sense of direction or focus. It isn't possible for them to reach their potential, as they have no idea what they are aim-ing for.

B. Those who know what they want to do, but don't do it.

These people are typi-cally frustrated. There are many things that can stand between where a person is, and where they want to be including: responsibilities, education, growth and fear.

At the end of the day these people are also missing their potential.

C. Those who know what they want to do, and do it.

These people know themselves and are acutely aware of their passions. They are always growing closer to their passion and what they are meant to do.

3. Finding and pursuing passion.

At this point you know your strengths, your weak-nesses, your interests and where you stand as far as getting to where you want to be. The following ques-tions can be used as tools to give yourself an hon-est look into your current life situation, and to help you better identify exactly where you want your life to be headed.

Step three - Take time to write down your answers to these questions.

A. Are you happy with your current occupation?

B. What is it that you would enjoy doing with your life?

C. Are you capable of achieving what it is that you want to do? Do you have the skill set, or could you realistically acquire it?

E. Why do you want to do what it is that you want to do?

F. What can you do TODAY to start doing that thing?

If you took the time to read through this, and invest those few minutes in yourself and your future, you are ahead of most peo-ple. You have the advantage of being self aware, and knowing (or being on your way to figuring out) your mission. Are you willing to take a risk and follow your passion? Don't let another day go by without making a decision in service of your end goal. This is your life, seize every moment.

Do you know yourself?
