BY RENÉE JEANWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON — County officials had a number of questions for the city about the decision to extend Williston's 1-mile extraterritorial jurisdic-tion at last week's public hearing.

Many of those questions—ranging from storm water management to future enforcement—were left wanting an answer, but they may find one at the next public meeting, set for 5:30 p.m. Wednes-day at Williston City Hall, 22 E. Broadway.

The meeting is open to the public, but pub-lic comment will not be taken because it is for county and city officials to work together on an orderly zoning transition plan. The two sides may also work out the details county officials expressed concerns about.

The 1-mile ETJ was given a thumbs up at the city's planning and zoning board Thursday, but not without a lot of questions from concerned county residents and three of its elected commissioners.

Among those questions, Williams County Chairman David Montgomery asked if the city planned to take over pending litigation in the one-mile, or if it would be left to the county to tie up such loose ends.

There were also questions about how code en-forcement would be handled, and who and how stormwater management will be handled going forward, since only building and fire codes were being proposed at the time for the 1-mile.

Stormwater management is presently part of Williams County's building and zoning pro-cesses, but as the county wouldn't be collecting fees for such things in the 1-mile any more, they wouldn't have funds to support that.

County officials have been particularly con-cerned that the 1-mile not become a no-man's land, where things only partially work and where enforcement and other issues are confus-ing or unclear.

"We will have to work together on this," said Williston Planning and Zoning Chair Cynthia

Aafedt last week. "These are the types of issues that would be better addressed in the transition meeting."

Montgomery said an answer to such questions would be particularly important for the public to know before the proposed 1-mile ETJ finds itself before the City Commission in ordinance form.

"If the city is taking this over and charging the fees for building permits, I can assure you the county is not paying the engineering fees for the storm water management," he said.

"This board cannot answer that question," Aafedt said.

"We want answers before anything is done," Montgomery replied.

"This is a great process to understand your concerns and make sure they do get addressed," Aafedt said. "And frankly, they'd better be pre-pared with an answer when it gets to them."

Jansa Pantic, co-owner of Deli To Go, mixes up a tasty batch of zucchini bread. She wants to source as many ingredients as possible using lo-cal ingredients, and is still seeking local suppliers for many things.

BY RENÉE JEANWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON — All good things take time. Cheese. Wine. Bread. Friday after-noon that bread was a zuc-chini bread. That might be considered a "quick" bread to the educated cook, but under Jasna Pantic's watch-ful eyes, it was quick bread slow-stirred.

"You want everything to be incorporated just so," she explains.

The butter she had al-lowed to melt at room tem-perature to a just-so state. The zucchini she peeled, but grated with their centers intact. Most recipes want you to cut out the centers, she explains, but she has a secret ingredient for all the moisture the center holds. She holds up a box of flax

seeds."They will soak up the ex-

tra moisture," she explains, "and they are very healthy for you."

Healthy, organic foods — locally sourced whenever possible — have been the hallmark of her career as a food chef. And they are key ingredients for the new restaurant she co-owns. Deli to Go is located at 2605 19th Ave. W., just before the roundabout.

A PAINFUL TWIST, A HAPPY TURN

Pantic is here in Wil-liston because of a weird and wonderful journey that began after she broke her leg. She was a chef working for energy sector companies in the Prudhoe Bay area, but one day, as she was heading to work, her cookbooks got

the better of her. She'd packed a number

of them in her suitcase — seven or eight at least — and the weight of them plus her arctic gear were infinitely more inertia than her thin frame could overcome. The suitcase caught a rock as she was hurrying out of the airport parking lot, and the weight of those books snapped her back like a rub-ber band.

Unfortunately, her leg was not quite so elastic. It hit the ground at a 90-degree angle and was shattered. Doctors fixed her up, but the new leg posed a problem in Prudhoe Bay.

"If I go back there, I have a lot of hardware in the leg," she explained, "and it could actually freeze. So I decided I wanted to be closer to my family and explore opportu-

nities here in the oil indus-try in the Bakken."

Her first foray was actually for a little shop in Watford, on which she put a painfully hopeful, but too low bid.

"I was crying for days," she recalled, "but the guy, he had seen me crying, and we became good friends. You just never know where or how you're gonna meet someone who is a friend."

The man told her if he ever did anything else with food in the Bakken that Pantic would be his partner. It was a promise that turned out to be more than words. He called her just before Mother's Day and told her it was time to come to Willis-ton and open that restaurant she'd been dreaming of.

MINOT — A jury will decide whether an oil truck driver should be punished for a fiery 2013 crash east of Stanley that killed three people.

Vernon Neil Wright of Georgia is on trial in North Central Ju-dicial Dis-trict Court for three counts of negligent homicide for a five-vehi-cle crash that occurred on a densely foggy morning as many in North Dakota’s Oil Patch were heading to work.

Mountrail County Attor-ney Wade Enget told jurors in Minot on Monday that Wright’s behavior on June 21, 2013, was a “gross devia-tion of acceptable standards of conduct.” Wright blocked the westbound lanes of traf-fic on U.S. Highway 2 when he was attempting to turn north to deliver oil to a facil-ity near Stanley.

During Enget’s opening statement, he listed the names of the three who died in the crash several times:

David Maskey, 41, Minot, formerly Rugby; Patrick Wilkie, 26, Minot, for-merly Wahpeton; and Tyler Fischer, 22, Rhame, formerly Bowman. At the time, all three worked for Triangle Electric.

Defense attorney David Dusek said the evidence and testimony will show that Wright is not guilty of the charges, which are Class C felonies.

Dusek told jurors that Wright was attempting to get off the highway because of foggy conditions. High-way 2 was clear of traffic when he began to turn left, when “out of nowhere” a pickup struck Wright’s truck and disabled the engine.

Wright remained in his truck and attempted to restart it and get it off the roadway before it was struck by numerous ve-hicles and the trailer burst into flames, Dusek said.

“We believe the evidence will show that this case is a series of unfortunate events,” Dusek said.

Jurors saw photos of the fire and thick, black smoke that followed the crash and subsequent explosion and left much of the wreckage unrecognizable.

Federal investigators have released hundreds of pages of records that offer new insight into the moments just before and after a 2013 oil train derailment near Casselton, North Dakota, that created a massive fire and forced 1,400 people to evacuate for several days.

Interviews with the BNSF Railway workers operat-ing the two trains in the derailment are included in documents the National Transportation Safety

Board posted online Monday. Federal investigators also said in the documents that a broken train axle found after the derailment might have been prevented if BNSF railroad had inspected it more carefully and found a pre-existing flaw.

The broken axel wasn't pinpointed as the cause of the crash, but the NTSB ordered the industry to recall 43 axles made by Standard Steel in the same 2002 batch.

The charred remains of an oil tanker train that derailed and exploded.

Pantic was so excited, she got in her car that very day.

"My daughters thought I was crazy," Pantic said, laughing. "But I was very excited.

Now she has one of those daughters with her in Wil-liston, helping her work the restaurant, and that makes every day yet another beau-tiful adventure in her life's journey.

THE START OF IT ALLPantic's adventures

started long before Prudhoe Bay, and the broken leg that brought her to Williston. She came to America from Yugoslavia when she was a girl of sweet 16. Not long after, her parents lost their employment.

"One day I told mom that I was going to find a job and not come back until I had one," Pantic recalls.

At the time they were living in a very small town, with maybe 50 or 60 busi-nesses. She knocked on each, but all of them were closed to the little immi-grant girl whose English was so poor.

"So as I'm going back home, I am very sad," Pantic said. "And then I notice a restaurant on the other side of the street, Olympia Restaurant."

She was tired, dejected, and more than ready to call it quits. But something down deep inside wouldn't allow her to give up.

She crossed the street and went into the restaurant, where she met the owner, a lovely and sophisticated Greek lady named Georgia Kolinzas.

"I told her I'm looking for whatever kind of job you like," Pantic said. "Wash-ing dishes, mopping floors. Whatever you have. And keep in mind, my English was terrible!"

Kolinzas told her to buy a black dress and black shoes and return the next day ready to work. Pantic did so, and, by the end of the day, the only thing Kolin-zas wanted to know was whether there was a sister, perchance, who would work just as hard.

"So my sister got a job, too," Pantic said, eyes shin-ing at the memory. "Georgia taught me everything. How to conduct myself properly in situations in a restau-rant. How to conduct myself with food, with the cus-

tomer, and life in general. She was always looking out for me. If my skirt was too short, she'd criticize me, and my skirt had to be longer the next day."

LIFE'S EXCELLENT ADVENTUREThe love of food, on the

other hand, was something Pantic was born with.

"I believe food and music are the two universals," she said. "Although foods are different in every region and music is different in ev-ery region, they are the only two things that are under-stood and accepted by the universe unconditionally. It is something that bonds people no matter what their culture is."

Much of her training has been of her own making, in her own kitchen, and from an early age. Mothers and grandmothers along the way have been her teachers. And the cookbooks she's acquired along the way.

She can make the most complicated of dishes, but for her, the simplest are the best. Give her bean soup. That is her favorite.

Her cookbooks fill a large chest at home, and she would not part with them for love or money. Not even

those seven or eight cook-books that ultimately cost her her legs.

Most of her cookbooks are not just recipes. "I have a chocolate and coffee bible that gives the history of it from beginning to today," she said. "I have a seafood — not cookbook — but preparation book. It gives you every kind of fish in the world. Where it is caught, how it is caught, how it is prepared."

The cooking, the journey, the adventures all continue, she says, however many painful twists or happy turns may lie ahead.

Good things take their own time. This Pantic has learned in the kitchens of life, and she cannot help but believe that all those good things will eventually find their way to her here in Williston.

"I have traveled all the states except Hawaii," she said. "During my whole lifetime, raising kids and taking care of family, I did what I had to do for as long as I've had to do it. I'm so very blessed, so very fortunate that I've been to so many places. I love this place, too, because it reminds me of something where I was born."

Officials have said the accident happened when a westbound freight train de-railed and a portion of it fell onto an adjacent track carry-ing the eastbound oil train. Eighteen cars on the 106-car oil train derailed and several exploded and burned.

In the records released Monday, the two men onboard the BNSF oil train describe losing sight of the tracks in a cloud of blowing snow shortly before seeing a derailed grain car lying across the tracks. Emergen-cy brakes were applied, but the train was still moving 42 mph when it struck the car.

The 18 tank cars broke open and spilled 400,000 gal-

lons of crude oil that fueled the fire that could be seen from nearly 10 miles away. It took several weeks to clean up the remaining oil from the site 30 miles west of Fargo after the flames were extinguished.

Everyone aboard both trains escaped unharmed. But just a couple min-utes after conductor Pete Rigpl exited the oil train, he looked back to see flames engulf the locomotive he and Bryan Thompson had been in.

"I was exiting the cab then and started to get away from all the fire. It was - the heat was intense," Rigpl said to investigators. "I mean, the whole situation just - I was

in knee-deep snow. I couldn't get away as quickly as I would like to."

The two men called 911 and talked with BNSF dispatch-ers as they moved away from the growing fire consum-ing their cargo. Rigpl and Thompson told investigators they stressed the potential danger as they talked with emergency responders.

Railroad shipments of crude oil are facing addi-tional scrutiny and tougher regulations because there have been several fiery derailments involving the commodity in recent years. The worst happened in July 2013 and killed 47 people in a small Canadian city just across the U.S.-Canada border from Maine.

Thompson, the oil train's engineer, said that when he heard people were ap-proaching the derailment to get a glimpse of the wreck-age he urged a sheriff's deputy to remove them because of the danger.

"I don't think he grasped what was going on until I told him, I said do you know the story of the train in Can-ada? I said that's the type of train I am," Thompson said.

Change is something folks in this part of the country know a thing or two about.

With that being said, there are some significant chang-es taking place over at the Bethel Lutheran Home we want you to know about.

Hey, this is something that doesn't happen every day.

After 22 years as direc-tor of the Bethel Lutheran Foundation, Jim Yockim first announced back in January, he will be retiring as of May 31.

We un-derstand Yockim is the original director of the Founda-tion and leaves now, having established a strong pro-gram, after beginning his career as the direc-tor back on Aug. 1 of 1993.

Plans are in the works for his retire-ment Open House to be held from 2-4 p.m. on May 29 at the Arbor House Assisted Living Center.

Here's your opportunity to drop by and wish him well in years ahead.

Yockim has been a big part of this community throughout the years as along with heading up the foundation, he earlier had a hands-on position serving as a City Commissioner.

He held down the role as a commissioner for five years, before stepping up to serve in the North Dakota Sen-ate, representing the area as a state senator from 1987 through 1998.

With close ties to the com-munity, Yockim is a gradu-ate of Pacific Lutheran University in 1975 where he earned his BSW, followed by picking up his MSW from San Diego University in 1979.

Along the way he was also involved working in the oil industry as a member of the ND Landman's Association.

His other involvement included the National As-sociation of Social Workers, along with being involved in activities at First Lutheran Church in Williston.

NEW POSITIONSWhile Yockim will soon be

enjoying some time off, we should tell you that pres-ent Bethel Lutheran Home Administrator Kurt Stoner will be taking over Yockim's

role as the Foundation Director effective June 1.

That opens the door for Tami Peterson to replace Stoner as the new Bethel Administrator.

Peterson is a native of Crosby, and is a graduate of the University of North Dakota in nursing.

Previously she has worked at Mercy Medical Center and Trinity Medical Center and has been the Director of Nursing at Bethel since May of 2009.

It's always nice when you have talented individuals at the ready to step in and keep things rolling without a hitch.

ABOUT FOUNDATIONWhile we are telling you

about Yockim, it's only fair we relate some background information about the Foundation.

You see, it was in 1985 when Bethel Lutheran Home received a gift from the Floyd and Myrtle Stew-art family.

It was that $25,000 gift be-ing used to establish a Foun-dation for Bethel Home.

The idea was through this Corporation, the purpose would be to raise money for the needs of Bethel, invest and manage the monies received.

In 1993 the Foundation hired its first director, Yoc-kim, on a part-time basis.

Initially the Foundation worked out of a small desk in the lower level of Bethel Lutheran Home.

Much later, during the capital campaign of 1997, it relocated to South Main in Williston.

Before we go much fur-ther, we should also tell you the Foundation is governed by a five-person Board made up of two members ap-pointed by the Bethel Home Board, and three members elected at large by the del-egates at the annual meet-ing of the Foundation.

Foundation ownership is made up of 27 Church Congregations of Western North Dakota who also are owners of Bethel Lutheran Home.

ADD APARTMENTSMoving along, it was in

April 1997 when the Bethel Lutheran Foundation en-tered into an agreement to purchase the Bolinske Ter-

race Apartment Building located at 1705 3rd Ave W.

The building had 18 apart-ments at that time.

Renovation of the build-ing was started in 1997 at a cost of $809,000, with an elevator and eight garages being added, along with a community room.

The completed building then had 15 two-bedroom units and a total of two one-bedroom units.

The building began rent-ing to independent living seniors in 1997.

HERITAGE MANORMoving along to April of

1997 the Foundation entered into an agreement with the Williston Housing Partners Limited Partnership for the construction of a 20-unit middle to moderate income independent living apart-ment complex that was to be called the Heritage Manor.

This project is located at 314 18th St. W. and the units have an income restriction for 30 years.

After 15 years it was anticipated that the proj-ect would be donated 100 percent to Bethel Lutheran Foundation.

The facility celebrated its grand opening in October of 1999.

In the spring of 2000 the Foundation broke ground on an additional 9 two-bed-room units in the Estates wing of the Heritage Manor.

These units would be market rate units and have no government subsidy.

This wing would be lo-cated on the west side of the Manor building.

HARTKE CENTERSome great news was

received in 2001.In that year the Bethel Lu-

theran Foundation received its largest gift to date of over $1,100,000.

Plans called for that gift to be used to help with the building and renovation project and to build a chil-dren’s care center.

In June of 2002 construc-tion began on the Hartke Child Care Center located at 311 Ferndale Blvd.

This castle-looking setting provides care for 30 children throughout the day.

The children are involved on a daily basis with the residents of Bethel as they interact, play games and visit favorite residents.

MORE PROJECTSShifting ahead to July of

2003 Bethel began work on building a looping walkway and park-like area on the west and north sides of

Bethel.The walkway was to con-

nect Bethel Lutheran Home with the Hartke Center as well as provide access to a planned garden-like area.

Plans called for the Mem-ory Walk to include a school bell, windmill, farm tractor, water pump, wishing well and other items common to western North Dakota.

In addition, adjacent to the Hartke Center a "Story-book Lane" was planned, to be created with favorite sto-rybook characters depicted along the walkway.

MORE PROPERTYContinuing to charge

ahead, in July of 2000 Bethel Lutheran Founda-tion purchased a home at 1705 Third Ave W. owned by Vivian Ostert.

We recall the building then became an office for the Foundation, and along with the property there was a large garage to be used as storage for Bethel Lutheran Home.

Next the Foundation entered into an agreement to acquire the Gaudreau Car Wash property on the corner of 3rd Ave W. and 18th Street.

The property purchase completed the ownership of the east half of the block.

The Foundation and Bethel Lutheran Home then began planning the use of this property.

ASSISTED LIVINGPlans were developed for

the building of a 34-unit Assisted Living Center cov-ering the property from the Terrace Apartment build-ing on the south side of the block to the corner of 18th street.

Additional property was purchased from the Evan-sons on the SE corner of 18th Street and 4th Ave W.

The car wash property, the Evanson house and the Foundation office were then demolished in the fall of 2007.

While this was all taking place the Foundation relo-cated to the Old Post Office Building on Main Street.

ONE MORE MOVEThe Foundation relocated

its offices to the Assisted Living Center in December of 2009.

During the early 2000s the Williston area was engulfed in the Bakken Oil Boom.

Affordable housing for seniors became difficult to find as many units were being bought up by oil companies and rents rose dramatically.

Bethel Lutheran Foun-dation continued to make moves, this time acquiring the Golden Estates Indepen-dent Living Center in April of 2011.

The 16-unit apartment building is located at 56 22nd St. W. in Williston.

Officials indicate the facility provides two meals a day, five days a week to its residents.

This acquisition enabled the residents to continue to live in an affordable senior preferred setting.

As you can see, those involved in the Foundation are not afraid of change.

Special thanks to Kathy Harger, along with informa-tion from the Internet and the Bethel History Book, for providing some detailed information.

We send out a Scope Salute to Yockim on his retirement, while sending best wishes to Stoner and Peterson in their new roles.

SNAGGING SEASONPaddlefish snagging

season opens Friday and the season runs through the end of May.

But wait, that can be changed to much earlier, if harvest limits are reached before that date.

You should know snag-ging is limited to designated areas.

This event attracts a large number of snaggers and it's best to check regulations before casting a line.

We have long said the state of North Dakota should find an event to kick off the tourist season.

The snagging is one of those events that could fill the bill.

Meanwhile, the Scope will be joining up with the Min-nesota Governor's Fishing Opener once again, with this being the 68th annual event.

This time around the fishing opener is slated for the Lake Vermilion area, attracting major media coverage.

RAISE THE FLAGBy the time most of you

are reading the newspaper this evening the Scope will be arriving at Target Field.

We were lucky enough to have our name selected, from a field of numerous veterans, allowing for this honor.

The Minnesota Twins should be saluted for al-lowing, during some 80 home games each year, for a veteran to perform this duty at each home game.

Just being at the ball game is special, but having this one opportunity, to be a part of the ceremony is extra special.

A win over the Detroit Ti-gers will make the evening much sweeter.

Open house planned for retiring Yockim on May 29

Yockim

struck the crude oil truck, testified about the heat in his truck as he tried to get free from his seat belt.

“As I looked down, the floor mats were melting,” Ofsthun said.

Ofsthun said he ran through 50 to 60 feet of fire to escape the wreckage.

“I felt like somebody had a torch on me,” Ofsthun testified.

He said he suffered third-degree burns on his ears, had chest pains and sore arms from the crash, adding that his fire-retardant cloth-ing prevented his injuries from being worse.

Witness Charla Mills said she slowed down signifi-cantly due to the heavy fog and was able to turn onto

a side road to avoid hitting the truck. Mills testified she heard an initial crash and saw greenish crude oil run onto the highway.

Mills said she heard two more crashes and then an explosion. She said she remembered telling the 911 dispatcher that “they keep hitting and keep hitting.”

The state medical exam-iner is expected to testify today about the cause of death of the three men.

Dusek pointed out dur-ing cross-examination that investigators did not collect data from Electronic Con-trol Modules, or ECMs, from the commercial vehicles. Dusek said the ECMs are similar to black boxes and record information such as speed and whether the driv-

er was wearing a seatbelt.The defense plans to have

an expert in accident recon-struction testify today.

Dusek also asked several witnesses if other drivers were going too fast for the foggy conditions that day. He drew attention to a statement from a witness who told a Highway Patrol trooper that several Tri-angle Electric vehicles had passed him that morning.

Mills testified that she slowed down to 40 or 45 miles per hour as the fog became heavier and several who passed her were driving too fast for the conditions.

Ofsthun testified that traf-fic that day between Minot and Stanley was “crazy.”

“They were passing me like I was standing still,” he said.

While questioning wit-nesses, Enget drew atten-tion to the fact that Stanley has an intersection with a stoplight that could have been another route for Wright to take that day. The charge of negligent homi-cide alleges that Wright’s conduct was an “unreason-able disregard of a sub-stantial likelihood of risk involving a gross deviation from acceptable standards of conduct.”

Testimony is expected to conclude today and the jury could begin deliberating Wednesday morning.

ACCIDENT: Crash victims testify about wreckage and damageFROM PAGE A1

BY TU-UYEN TRANFORUM NEWS SERVICE

FARGO — Dan Haglund said recently that he has been accepted as a driver by Uber even though the ride-hailing company does not serve the market here. Yet.

After the governor signed into law the state’s first regulations of ride-hailing companies, Uber, the largest such company, released a statement Friday applaud-ing the move. "We look forward to making a home for Uber in North Dakota," Sagar Shah, general man-ager of Uber North Dakota, said in the statement.

The company was asked when it would roll out the service here but was silent on that matter.

For months, Uber has

watched and sometimes lobbied to shape the regula-tions. But it has not said

explicitly that it would offer its services in North Dakota.

Uber says it will roll out service in N.D.

WICKCOMMUNICATIONS

Today is Tuesday, April 28, the 118th day of 2015. There are 247 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On April 28, 1945, Ital-ian dictator Benito Mus-solini and his mistress, Clara Petacci, were executed by Italian parti-sans as they attempted to flee the country.

On this date:

In 1758, the fifth president of the United States, James Monroe, was born in Westmore-land County, Virginia.

In 1789, there was a mutiny on the HMS Bounty as rebelling crew members of the British ship, led by Fletcher Christian, set the captain, William Bligh, and 18 others adrift in a launch in the South Pacific.

In 1817, the United States and Britain signed the Rush-Bagot Treaty, which limited the number of naval vessels allowed in the Great Lakes.

In 1918, Gavrilo Princip, the assassin of Archduke Franz Ferdi-nand of Austria and the archduke’s wife, Sophie, died in prison of tuber-culosis.

In 1925, the Interna-tional Exposition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts, which gave rise to the term “Art Deco,” began a six-month run in Paris.

In 1940, Glenn Miller and his Orchestra recorded “Pennsylvania 6-5000” for RCA Victor.

Best or lucky? Perhaps both

Guest columnist

John-a-Dreams

John Andrist

It’s true confession time.I’ve never really known where Nepal is

located. Of course I knew it is the home of Mount Everest, the world’s highest moun-tain, and that its biggest industry, it seems, is the tourism that Mount Everest creates.

I know now. It’s a relatively small country bordering India on the south and China on the north.

It took one of the world’s most deadly earthquakes last week to motivate me to find this information. At least 2,000 people have died, according to early reports.

And it made me wonder how many of us here in North Dakota have never experi-enced any kind of disaster, at least one of large dimension.

I’ve never felt an earthquake, never lived through a fire or flood, beyond basement water. Not even a sewer back-up, thank goodness.

No hurricanes, no tornadoes. How much is defying the rule of averages and how much is just plain luck I probably will never know.

Moreover, nobody in my family was born with serious birth defects or serious genetic abnormalities.

Call it blessed or call it lucky. I guess it probably is both. How about you?

So you’ve never inherited $10 million from a distant rela-tive you never really knew!

When you are lamenting never having discovered gold or won a lottery, do you ever think about the blind good luck most of us experience in our lives?

After all, if you believe the odds makers, you are three times more likely to be struck by lightning than you are to win a major lottery jackpot.

One of my favorite retorts when an old friend inquires about my health, is, “If I don’t get as much as I want I get more than I deserve.” I think most of us could say amen to that.

LEGISLATORS RETURN HOMEFor the first time in 25 years I am not a North Dakota

legislator who is returning home today after four months in Bismarck.

Have I missed it? You’re darn right I have. Let me tell you why. As I’ve tried to keep abreast of the bills as a spectator, one of the most significant things I’ve discovered is that I really miss having all the information. And I still wish I was a player.

Bills get exhaustive hearings. Even though legislators can’t personally attend all of them, they still feel somewhat informed because they listen to the details provided by col-leagues who have learned the details from the hearings.

For me as an outsider it’s like trying to do a book report after reading only the cover jacket. I did that a few times in my school days, but I don’t brag about it.

So I suspect, even though I have an opinion on this bill or that bill, I hope to avoid being one who is judgmental about the people who have voted on it. Hopefully, it will make me a little less judgmental about a whole lot of other things.

As I write this, protesters are flooding the streets of Balti-more because of alleged mistreatment of Eddie Gray. None of them yet know the details.

SO LONG HILLARYTo keep my promise I’m not going to pass judgment on all

the allegations whirling around Hillary Clinton these days, damning as they may sound.

But one prediction I can make is that she will never be endorsed for president by the Democrats, nor will she be on the ballot.

You can blame the news media, and you can blame the conservative bloggers , but it is Democrats who will aban-don her before the convention. That’s politics.

Sorry Hillary, you are damaged goods.

Another view

Flying has become less en-ergy intensive than driving, at least in the United States, according to the surprising findings of an analysis of energy consumption by the University of Michigan’s Transportation Research Institute.

Transporting one person a distance of one mile by aircraft consumed on aver-age the energy equivalent to 2,465 British thermal units (BTUs), compared with 4,211 BTUs for moving one person one mile by car, in 2012.

If fuel use is adjusted to account for commercial freight and mail carried on passenger aircraft, flying consumed just 2,033 BTUs per person mile, according to researcher Michael Sivak.

One BTU is formally defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit. Informally, it is roughly the energy released by burning a kitchen match.

A gallon of gasoline con-tains roughly 124,000 BTUs, a gallon of jet fuel about 135,000 BTUs and diesel almost 139,000 BTUs.

Sivak’s research shows driving consumed 71 percent more energy per person-mile than flying in 2012, or more than double if flying data are corrected for cargo (“En-ergy intensities of flying and driving” April 2015).

Aviation still has a reputa-tion for being a particularly energy-intensive mode of transportation for moving people but Sivak’s findings suggest that reputation may no longer be deserved.

At the start of the 1970s, aircraft were particularly in-efficient and consumed twice as much fuel per person-mile than passenger cars.

Since then, however, the amount of energy consumed per passenger-mile by air-craft has fallen by almost 80 percent while the efficiency of driving has improved by less than 17 percent.

The crossover point, when aircraft became less energy-intensive than cars, occurred around the turn of the millennium.

EFFICIENCY TRENDSThe switchover in energy

intensity is the result of several trends which have tended to make flying more efficient but have had a much more ambiguous ef-fect on driving.

New aircraft are much more fuel efficient than the ones they replaced. Airlines have learned to operate them using less fuel by cutting the amount of un-necessary weight carried on board. And seat occupancy is much higher than it was in previous decades.

In contrast, cars have become heavier and more powerful and they are much more likely to be occupied by just the driver rather than passengers. Carpool-ing on the way to work, for

example, has become much less common than it was in the 1970s and 1980s.

There are several important qualifica-tions to this analysis. The data is based on the United States, fa-mous for its larger and more power-ful passenger vehicles. Cars in the European Union and Japan, where vehicles tend to be smaller and lighter, consume far less energy per passenger mile.

Sivak’s research is an important reminder about the effect that choices about energy efficiency, vehicle size and engine power have on fuel consumption.

The analysis is also sensitive to trip length. The average length of a driving trip is just 9 miles while an average flight is 914 miles -- 100 times longer.

Short car journeys tend to be much more energy-in-tensive than longer ones be-cause they are more likely to occur on urban roads (with lots of starts and stops) and have a single occupant.

Longer car journeys ones on the freeways and inter-state network are more fuel efficient and more likely to involve multiple occupants, which cuts energy con-sumption per person-mile dramatically.

But aircraft are also more fuel efficient over longer journeys than shorter ones because so much fuel is con-sumed during the takeoff phase. By some estimates, takeoff can account for as much as a quarter of the fuel consumed on a short flight.

MOBILITY DEMANDSivak’s analysis reveals

some important truths about energy consump-tion and transportation. First, energy consumption is directly related to the demand for mobility, a point which is often underplayed in discussions about energy and climate change.

Aviation tends to account for a very high share of per capita fuel consumption and per capita greenhouse emissions not because aircraft are inefficient but because of the long dis-tances involved in air travel compared with other modes of transport such as cars.

Rising fuel consumption and greenhouse emissions stem from an increase in de-mand for very long distance travel - especially intercon-tinental flights and among middle and lower income groups -- which are a central part of a modern, intercon-nected world.

Second, modes of

transport are not inher-ently efficient or inefficient. Better design can result in substantial efficiency improvements. The way in which modes of transport are operated is at least as important as their physical construction. And regula-tions and fuel prices have an important role to play driv-ing energy efficiency.

At a global level, demand for mobility is set to in-crease significantly in the decades ahead. As a higher share of the world’s popula-tion moves out of extreme poverty into middle income status, they too will want to travel long distances for work, leisure and to visit friends and family, and to consume products made far away, which implies an enormous increase in trans-port demand.

One option is to restrain the demand for mobility through regulations and actions designed to make transport much more expen-sive (such as increasing the cost of fuel through taxes or emissions charges).

Another is to shift people and products from transport modes with high energy intensity (such as aircraft) to ones which consume less fuel per passenger-mile (such as rail), though Sivak’s analysis raises questions about some of the assumptions commonly made about the energy intensity of different modes of transport.

The third option, and in many ways the most prom-ising, is to improve fuel efficiency within existing modes of transport. Sivak shows this course holds enormous promise through improvements in design and choices about how transport modes are operated.

Airlines have become more fuel efficient, in part, because they have cut ex-cess weight and raised seat occupancy to record levels. Cars on the other hand, at least in the United States, have become heavier and drive around with most of the seats empty.

Improvements in transport design and operation offer the best hope of meeting the world’s growing demand for mobility while curbing greenhouse emissions.

Efficiency improvements are, in turn, linked to the price of fuel and govern-ment regulations. The three approaches to curb-ing emissions (fuel pricing, mode shifting and enhanced efficiency) are complements rather than substitutes.

Nonetheless, the biggest reductions in greenhouse emissions are likely to come from using existing trans-port systems more effi-ciently, rather than trying to force people to stay at home by making travel dramati-cally more expensive.

Flying has become more energy efficient than driving

The Minnesota House GOP majority's big proposed cuts in state aid to Minneapolis, St. Paul and Duluth — and no other city — smack of partisanship blatant enough to be laughable, were not their consequences so negative.

The House tax bill would make deeper cuts in state aid to those three cities than any blow dealt them during the last decade of state budget deficits. The hit in 2016 would total $85 million — $34.4 million to Minneapolis, $30.3 mil-lion to St. Paul, $19.9 million to Duluth. In Minneapolis, that's 44 percent of today's state aid; in St. Paul, it's 50 per-cent. (The bill would shrink Minneapolis aid allotments $5.8 million more, but in exchange the city could tap sales tax proceeds that now go to the Minnesota Sports Facili-ties Authority.)

Those three cities and one other — Rochester — are deemed "cities of the first class" in state law. But Roch-ester is spared the proposed cut. The justification by the sponsor, Rochester-area Rep. Duane Quam: The other three cities' allotments under the local government aid (LGA) program are considerably larger on a per-capita basis than Rochester's. His proposal would cap LGA al-lotments for cities of the first class at 112.5 percent of the per-capita statewide average.

The flaw in that argument is that LGA's distribution has never been based on population alone. A new formula devised in 2013 reaffirmed the 44-year-old program's aim to equalize the taxpayer cost of municipal services through-out the state by adjusting for factors other than population that drive up those costs.

A major factor is the number of people who work in a city while living elsewhere.

It might be that these cuts are mere trading chips for the conference committee negotiations that lie just ahead at the Capitol. If that's so, we hope they come off the bar-gaining table early. They aren't worthy of a political party that seeks to be entrusted with the governance of the whole state.

Dear Annie: I believe my sister’s husband, “Roy,” is having an affair. He and I have been flirting for sev-eral years, and we’ve had several occasions where we could have been together, but because of my sister, we never have.

My sister’s marriage has been troubled for years. The two of them live togeth-er, but in separate rooms. They haven’t been intimate for ages. My sister also has some health issues. Roy has said many times that the two of them should be able to see other people. Recently, I saw Roy with some younger woman, and the way they were looking at each other, I knew they were more than friends. He has never looked at my sis-ter that way.

We do a lot of things to-gether as a family. During our most recent family weekend, Roy kept taking off alone. I believe Roy knows that I’m aware of his affair, even though he hasn’t said anything. I’m pretty sure my sister already knows and is hurt-ing. She barely speaks to him and spends most of her time with her grand-children. They both act as though nothing has hap-pened.

Roy has cheated before. I don’t want my sister to

be hurt again, but I also don’t want to make things awkward between the two of us. I think it’s time for my sister to let Roy go and move on. How do I handle

this? -- Hurting, Too

Dear Hurting: We think you are overly involved in your sister’s marriage. You have no proof of anything, only suspicions, and the fact that you have flirted with your brother-in-law in the past raises questions about your motives now.

Your sister may be choos-ing not to confront her hus-band’s behavior, and that is up to her. Please try to be emotionally supportive of whatever path she takes to deal with this. Be a shoul-der to lean on when she needs one. You don’t have to do more.

Dear Annie: I have liked this boy for almost a year. When I first started hang-ing out with him, one of his friends told me he liked me, too. He eventually asked for my phone number at

church, and I gladly hand-ed it over.

But we soon stopped hanging out, which left me feeling hopelessly confused. My friends say I should just go for it and ask him for his number. What should I do? -- Hopeless

Dear Hopeless: This boy may have needed a lot of courage to ask for your number and didn’t have enough in reserve to actu-ally call. Or he may have been teased by his friends and pretended that it was a joke to save face. Or he may be less interested than you hoped. There’s no way to know unless you take the next step yourself. We know it’s difficult, so imag-ine a negative result -- he turns down your request for his number. So? At least you’ll know he’s not the guy for you, and you can put it behind you. It’s bet-ter than hanging in limbo indefinitely. Good luck.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Shake up your routine. Get involved in a hobby that motivates you. Revisit a project that you set aside because the timing wasn’t right. Put your needs first.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Doubts about a current relationship will need to be analyzed. If your feelings have changed, you have to be honest with yourself and your partner in order to fix what’s wrong.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Don’t punish yourself by sticking with an unhap-py situation. You can im-prove your career options or personal relationships if

you are willing to take deci-sive action.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Meetings or social en-gagements will bring you in contact with a potential partner. You will discover valuable information re-garding your idea for a home business.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Tension in your personal life will stress you out. Moodiness or self-pity will not help your situation. Dis-cuss your concerns. Getting problems out in the open will lead to a solution.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- You will get back as much as you put in. Offer the world a joyful, helpful atti-tude. Share your good mood with people you want to spend more time with.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Stick to your agenda and don’t get sidetracked by tak-ing on responsibilities that don’t belong to you. Make your primary interests your first priority. Use your creative imagination.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Be cautious if you are traveling. Focus on the

jobs you are responsible for, and don’t stop until you are finished. Distraction will lead to a minor mishap or injury.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Add some excitement to your life. Do something out of the ordinary with a close friend or loved one. Take in a sporting or cul-tural event, or visit a local attraction.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Personal relationships, your dream job and where you would like to live should all be reflected upon. Decide what positive steps you can take to reach your goal.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Not everyone will be honest with you. Expect someone to take credit for your work. Let others know what you have been up to if you want to gain positive recognition.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- It’s up to you to make things happen. Don’t let anyone dissuade you from following your dreams. Pur-sue your goals with deter-mination and enthusiasm in order to make headway.

Wife believes her husband is cheating

Annie’s Mailbox

Joan Rivers said, “I hate housework. You make the beds, you do the dishes -- and six months later you have to start all over again.”

In today’s deal, the defend-ers need six tricks to defeat South’s two-spade contract. How can they do it?

After South opens one spade and West makes a takeout double, North raises to two spades. However, as this might be done with a much weaker hand, some pairs use a conventional response (some employ two clubs, others two hearts) to indicate a good three-card single raise. Discuss with your partner if this appeals to you.

Maybe West should have doubled a second time, because three diamonds is makable.

West starts with three top hearts, East playing high-low, then discarding ... what?

East would like a club shift, so he should discard the club seven. West now leads his club three, low guaranteeing at least one honor in the suit. East wins with his ace and returns the club two. West takes that trick and leads his third club, which East ruffs to de-feat the contract.

How does West know that East can ruff the third club?

If East had started with four clubs, after discarding the highest spot card and winning with his ace, he would have returned the higher of his last two clubs: high-low with a remaining doubleton.

Martina Marquardt clubbed two home runs to carry WSC Tetons to a 21-0 win over Bismarck State College at Bismarck in five innings Sunday.

Marquardt racked up eight RBIs on three hits for WSC Tetons. She doubled in the third inning and homered in the first and third innings.

Fifteen runs in the first three innings helped WSC to the victory.

Jalen Creech got the win for WSC, pitching five shutout innings with five strikeouts, no walks and one hit allowed.

GAME2WSC completed the Sun-

day sweep with a 16-7 victory in five innings following a 12-run fifth inning.

The Tetons scored in the fifth on a two-run double by Natalie Bernard, an RBI single by Emily Cairns, a home run by McKayla Haugeberg, a sacrifice fly by Hannah Atlee, an RBI single by Bernard, and a two-run double by Cairns.

The game was back-and-forth heading into the fifth, with six lead changes.

Haugeberg drove in six runs on three hits for WSC in the game.

Creech recorded the win for WSC even though she allowed seven runs over five innings. She struck out five, walked none and surren-dered six hits.

BASEBALLGAME1The Tetons lost 12-11 on

Sunday following an eight-run third inning advantage turn into a Bismarck State College victory.

Jarrod Adams pushed across four runs on two hits for the Tetons. He hom-ered in the first inning and singled in the second inning.

The top of the first saw the Tetons take an early lead 4-0 on the strength of a three-run home run by Adams.

Bismarck State College answered the Tetons' top inning with three runs of its own in the second.

GAME2The Tetons fell 11-10 to

Bismarck State College in seven innings despite 13 hits and 10 runs. Parker Kinkade racked up four RBIs on three hits for the Tetons. He hom-ered in the fourth inning, singled in the fifth inning, and doubled in the seventh inning.

The Tetons got on the board with back-to-back solo home runs by Parker Kinkade and Jarrod Adams.

BSC earned its second walk-off hit of the day in the seventh on a controversial diving play by Hunter Trow-bridge. The play was ruled as a hit instead of a catch to end the dramatic day for both teams.

Logan Werlinger/Forum News Service

Tanya Knodle explains her illnesses on Friday, Mar 27, 2015, in Grand Forks. Knodle was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when she was 10 years old, now 38, she is on a transplant list in hopes of receiving a kidney and pancreas.

BY PAMELA KNUDSONFORUM NEWS SERVICE

GRAND FORKS — At age 38, Tanya Knodle has endured more than most people could begin to imag-ine -- kidney failure, partial amputation of her foot, temporary blindness, double mastectomy, persistent bone infection and bouts of depression. She's had to relearn how to walk twice.

In 2011, she was so sick doctors "didn't know if I was going to make it," she said.

That same year, a fire consumed her apartment building, taking all her pos-sessions with it.

She spent most of 2013 in the hospital.

"My friends say, 'Did you break a mirror?' " the Grand Forks woman said.

Until about seven years ago, Knodle was living a pretty normal life.

She had graduated as an honor student from Wil-liston (N.D.) High School, earned a degree in mortu-ary science and worked as a mortician, all the while managing the Type 1 diabe-tes she was diagnosed with at age 10.

But in recent years, her condition has worsened to the point where she is not able to work; she's on medi-cal disability.

In recent months, she started to take dialysis treatment to augment poor kidney function.

"Diabetes and renal disease go hand in hand," Knodle said.

In December, her name was added to an organ trans-plant list for a kidney and a pancreas.

A fundraising site has been set up online, through the GoFundMe website, to raise money for upcoming medical expenses.

She is hoping 2015 is the year her bad luck ends and she's able to receive the transplants she needs.

DIAGNOSEDASCHILDIn Williston, she grew up

playing sports, Knodle said. "I was a very active kid."

The self-described "gym rat" was a gymnast, roller-blader and bike-rider.

When she first developed symptoms of diabetes, "I couldn't do the 100-yard dash without just dying," she said.

She drank excessive amounts of water and got up many times at night to go to the bathroom. Her weight dropped to 50 pounds.

When she was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, her blood sugar level "was in the 400s," she said. "The normal range is 80 to 120."

She attended diabetes camps every summer. Some

of the kids she met there became lifelong friends.

"You meet people that are facing some of the same things. You share stories. It helps you get through," she said.

After college, Knodle worked as a mortician in South Dakota and Wisconsin until illness forced her out of the workplace.

"It was hard for me, being a diabetic and being a morti-cian," she said. "When you're in a job that's 24 hours a day, you can't just stop and eat at regular times. You're out on calls."

She began to consider other careers, and realized that she enjoyed working with families.

"Social work seemed like a good choice," she said.

She moved to Grand Forks, where she completed an un-dergraduate degree in social work at UND, receiving her diploma while hospitalized in December 2008.

The next month, she started working on a gradu-ate degree but quit due to sickness.

Her health started to spiral downward, she said. "I was in and out of the hospital."

MORECHALLENGESIn late 2009, doctors dis-

covered that she had a bone infection.

In 2010, she underwent a double mastectomy to treat a rare condition, diabetic mas-topathy, which afflicts people with diabetes who've been taking insulin for many years, she said.

In 2011, a kidney infec-tion led to a life-threatening complication, sepsis, which caused her loss of vision. She took classes at the North Dakota School for the Blind in Grand Forks to learn how to function as a blind person.

She regained her sight six months later.

Another surgery followed in March 2013, when part of her right foot was amputated to treat an infection in the bone. In spite of the pain in that foot, she can walk with-out assistance.

The infection lingers in parts of that foot, but is sup-pressed, she said. It worries her, though; a flare-up could hurt her chances of receiv-ing donor organs.

"For the transplant, I will have to be in good health," she said. "If the infection were to flare up, they'd pass over me (on the list)."

Also, transplant patients must take anti-rejection drugs, which renders the body unable to fight infec-tion.

In January, she began hemodialysis, which involves three-hour treatments, three times a week at Altru

Hospital. Hemodialysis rids the body of waste products by pumping blood out, cleans-ing it, and returning it to the body.

It left her exhausted, she said.

More recently, Knodle has begun a home treatment program, called "perito-neal dialysis," which uses a machine to pump a special solution into the peritoneal cavity between the body's internal organs and the wall of the abdomen.

For 10 hours nightly, she's tethered to a machine that removes waste products and extra fluid from her body.

"Before dialysis, I was hav-ing more bad days than good days," she said. "Dialysis is my life-line right now."

'BOUNCINGBACK'With each setback, "you

just kind of figure out ways to get through those chal-lenges," Knodle said. "I keep bouncing back."

She credits her ability to handle her health problems to an intense interest in hockey.

"In life, you've got to find something that gets you through -- and for me that's UND hockey."

When she lost her sight, her affinity for UND hockey deepened, she said.

"That's when I really be-came a hockey fan, because I really listened. I learned how to find the puck with my ear."

At a UND game in January, a mix-up in tickets allowed her to be seated in the front

row, one seat away from the UND team.

"It was my 'hurray' mo-ment," she said. "That was on my bucket list, to be in the front row of a hockey game ... I wasn't feeling good, but it didn't matter."

She often chats about hock-ey with health care workers and others with whom her illness has connected her, in-cluding the guy who delivers dialysis supplies to her apart-ment, which is replete with UND hockey paraphernalia.

"When he first came in, he took one look around and said, 'I can't deliver here. I'm a Gopher.'"

OPTIMISMKnodle is optimistic that

she'll receive an organ dona-tion -- and that the trans-plant will reopen the door to a more normal life.

"I'm a fairly young diabetic on dialysis," she said. "If ev-erything works out, I could live quite a few years."

The success rate for kid-ney transplants is "over 90 percent," she said. "There's a 50-50 chance that the pan-creas transplant would be successful.

"If both transplants were successful, I would not be diabetic."

In spite of everything she's had to deal with, Knodle's determination and humor shine through.

"I've been lucky. I've got great friends and family sup-port," she said. Her parents, Tom and Bonnie Knodle, and other family members live in Williston.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Down four runs before their first at-bat, the Min-nesota Twins had a hill to climb. Against David Price and the Detroit Tigers, that proved too steep.

Tommy Milone allowed four runs in the first inning of a 5-4 loss on Monday night.

Yoenis Cespedes had a homer, a double and three RBIs to back Price and Joakim Soria picked up his eighth save in eight chances.

"They put a 4-spot against him right out of the chute, which is a tough mountain to climb when you're facing a guy like David Price," Twins manager Paul Molitor said. "I thought our bats today against him were a lot better than the opener. We kept pecking away."

Danny Santana had two hits and an RBI for the Twins (8-11), who had the tying run at second base with one out. Milone (2-1) gave up five runs on eight hits in four innings.

The Tigers jumped on Milone early, with Jose Iglesias hitting a solo homer and Cespedes add-ing a three-run shot for a quick 4-0 lead.

"I've seen him mash balls like he did today in that first inning all too often," said Milone, a former team-mate of Cespedes in Oak-land. "It's not a good feeling to be on the other side of it. Good lineup, wish I could have some pitches back. Reality is I just couldn't get it done today."

Price had was one out away from a shutout in the season-opener against the Twins in Detroit.

Despite seven strikeouts in six innings and his fast-ball occasionally hitting 97 mph on the Target Field radar gun, Price said he was far from sharp.

Milone digs big early hole, Twins lose to Tigers

BY TODD KARPOVICHASSOCIATED PRESS

BALTIMORE (AP) — The Baltimore Orioles' home game against the Chicago White Sox was postponed Monday night because of safety concerns after riots broke out near Camden Yards following the funeral of Freddie Gray.

Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred, at the stadium for a previously planned visit, said Tuesday night's game between the Orioles and White Sox could be moved — possibly to Nation-als Park in Washington — if safety continued to be an issue.

Rioters looted stores and threw rocks and bricks at Baltimore police about three miles from the stadium in the wake of the mysterious death of Gray. He died April 19 after suffering a severe spinal injury in police cus-tody.

BOWMAN WORK DONATEDWith the slowed oil econ-

omy pinching the Bowman city budget, commissioners had no plans to repair and re-open a troubled portion of Fifth Street Southwest.

So three local contractors -- Beylund Construction, ARP Enterprises and Bow-man Ready Mix -- stepped in to do the work them-selves -- for free.

Steve Beylund said the road is important, especially for farmers. It serves as a thor-oughfare from U.S. 85 to the east parking lot of Frontier Travel Center in Bowman, running between El-Vu Motel and North Winds Lodge.

The west portion of Fifth Street was plagued by excessive moisture last year, which led to its rapid decay. Semi trucks traveling over the road became stuck as the road had fallen through.

City commissioners unanimously voted to accept Beylund’s offer to repair the road, and work began that afternoon.

Soft spots were dug out and refilled, and scoria was to be placed on the surface, to be covered with asphalt mix later this summer.

In all, the three compa-nies will provide upwards of $60,000 in repairs and a well-used street will be back in business.

Beylund’s actions are “very civic minded” said Commission President Lyn James, and the board expressed its appreciation for the three businesses performing the work.

ASSESSMENT HIKES REJECTEDFor the third year run-

ning Crosby’s city council has protested skyrocketed property tax assessments by rejecting recommendations by assessors.

This year, the council rejected a proposal to raise residential valuations by 6 percent and commercial by 15 percent. Instead, it recommended 6 percent increases across the board.

State law requires assess-ments to be 90 percent to 100

percent of true and full mar-ket value, which has meant double-digit increases.

Last year, amid a hue and cry of homeowners facing hefty property tax increas-es, the city reneged on approving property assess-ments, only to be overruled by county commissioners.

In 2013, the city voted against 19 percent assess-ment increases, which were eventually approved by the State Board of Equalization over the city’s objection.

The county and state boards will also get a crack at this year’s city council decision.

With values rapidly rising and falling in Crosby thanks to the oil boom, Alderman Doug Anderson, said a broader, longer-term snap-shot of city property values might be a better way to go, based on five-year averages, instead of year-to-year sales figures and other factors.

SQUATTER ARRESTEDAn arrest has been made

and a man has been charged with criminal trespass after it was learned through sur-veillance video that he was living in the Nazareth Lu-theran Church in Kenmare.

Church officials declined to name the individual citing an ongoing investi-gation, however, the Rev. Michon Weingartner talked about the incident leading up to the arrest.

She said back in January a person was found inside the church building while staff were setting up for a funeral. The man was told to leave. Instead, he came back and spent what Weingartner said were several overnights of use as a residence.

“A long-distance phone call on our bill made us aware,” Weingartner said. “And it appears there is evidence of multiple uses; several calls made all hours of the night.”

There was no evidence of theft, according to Wein-gartner, only that the indi-vidual, or individuals were scrounging around for food

in the church refrigerator.-- Kenmare News

PIPELINES WOULD CROSS LAKEHess representatives

laid out details last week on proposed pipelines that would bridge facilities south of Lake Sakakawea with facilities north of the lake, which includes the Tioga gas plant.

The Public Service Com-mission is currently con-sidering two applications the company submitted for the pipeline projects and held a public hearing on the applications in Willis-ton on Friday.

The applications are for two pipelines: a natural gas liquids (NGL) pipeline and a crude-oil pipeline. The NGL line consists of some repurposing of exist-ing pipelines, and both lines will use existing river crossings for the projects.

The projects are associ-ated with a third natural-gas pipeline, which will connect to the Tioga gas plant. That pipeline will be the subject of a separate hearing in the future.

Hess attorney John Mor-rison called the gas pipe-line “essential to opera-tions and reducing flaring in North Dakota.”

If approved, Hess would start construction by June, with plans to complete the pipelines by October.

SCHOOL BONDING SHOT DOWNVoters last week shot

down Divide County School District’s bid to float $20 million in bonds and extend the school’s debt limit.

Nearly 81 percent of those voting opposed the proposal to float $20 million in bonds to enlarge and renovate the district’s two buildings.

The school district has been struggling with ideas for meeting the space demands of grow-ing enrollment due to oil development, and also for more efficiently using space available in the elementary and high school buildings.

BY CATHERINE NGAIREUTERS

NEW YORK — Four-hundred miles from the near overflowing tanks at the U.S. oil hub in Cushing, Oklahoma, a second glut in the Permian Basin of West Texas is pressuring oil pric-es once again as pipeline disruptions strand millions of barrels in the region.

The Permian, the fastest-growing shale play, accounts for about a fifth of the coun-try's total oil production, and is expected to produce about 2 million barrels of crude a day in May. The re-gion houses over 20 million barrels of crude storage.

Stockpiles in the Permian have hit several records in the last four weeks, accord-ing to data from industry information provider Gen-scape.

Investors have zeroed in on storage, waiting for declines in weekly inven-tory data to signal demand is rising or production is beginning to taper off. Stockpiles in Cushing, the delivery point for the U.S. fu-tures contract, hit a record in the week to March 13, and Gulf Coast supply has been robust.

Now a Permian backlog shows signs of an even bigger supply glut. Pipeline interruptions next month will compound already high inventories in the region that have grown because production has outpaced takeaway capacity.

Crude from the Permian that gets stored in Midland, Texas, awaiting transport to the Gulf Coast, will be di-verted to Cushing, where it will add to burgeoning sup-plies, possibly putting even more downward pressure on crude prices, traders said.

West Texas Intermediate oil delivered into Midland has slumped recently on news of planned work in May on two major pipelines in the region - Sunoco Lo-gistics Partners LP's 300,000 barrel-per-day West Texas Gulf and the 280,000 bpd Mid Valley pipeline. These

lines are primarily respon-sible for bringing Permian crude closer to refiners on the Gulf Coast.

Pipeline outages in May will result in extra bar-rels moved into Cushing, as physical oil traders will be "less likely to buy May WTI at Cushing for need of storage space for incre-mental May deliveries," said Dominic Haywood, an oil analyst at Energy Aspects in London.

"Prompt futures should reflect fundamentals and if cash is weaker, then that implies a softer May balance and thus weaker fundamen-tals."

On Thursday, the discount for WTI into Midland for May delivery <WTC-WTM> traded as low as $2.50 a bar-rel below U.S. crude futures, the widest differential since early January, as traders looked to offload crude.

JUST TOO FULLSince February, storage

volumes and utilization rates have remained high in the Permian Basin, accord-ing to Genscape, which mon-itors four locations totaling about 18.5 million barrels in the region. Utilization rates are just under 70 percent and there are some 12 mil-lion to 13 million barrels of oil stored in tanks there.

There is a limited amount of space to hold crude in the Permian, Genscape said.

In Colorado City, Texas - the starting location of both Magellan Midstream Part-ners' 300,000 bpd BridgeTex and Sunoco's West Texas Gulf lines - set a record in stocks last week, although it was shy of a record utiliza-tion rate.

"You need to move it up to Cushing or move it to the Gulf Coast," said Hillary Stevenson, manager of supply chain network at Genscape. "If you have a lot of pipelines backed up, that's not good."

EARLY SIGNSThe first signs that storage

was swelling appeared in the "roll" period for over-the-counter physical crude in Cushing, the three days following a future contract's expiration when refiners and traders square up final positions.

Fearing extra supply would eventually move to Cushing, traders dumped May barrels in the cash roll for as little as minus $1.60 on Friday, the lowest in four years.

Traders said the prob-lem could be resolved in a month. WTI at Midland bar-rels for June are more than $1.50 a barrel stronger than May bids.

Traders alarmed oil glut is a strain on West Texas storage
