Our cut of the ‘bucket’BY JERRY BURNESWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON — Oil and gas coun-ties in western North Dakota saw very little bottom line change in funding during the 2015 legislative session, despite revamped efforts by lawmakers.

Brent Bogar, of Jadestone Consult-ing and a former Williston city com-missioner, presented an outro on the session’s accomplishments to mem-

bers of the North Dakota Association of Oil and Gas Counties (NDAOGC) on Tuesday. In it, he highlighted the outcomes and impacts of surge fund-ing, formula and “bucket” bills, all directly affecting state and local oil revenue funding.

Overall, a lower commodity con-tributed to key cutbacks by the state, and the result wasn’t starkly differ-ent from last biennium.

“With the change in the oil price, it

did not mean much change in fund-ing,” Bogar said.

Coming into the session, the oil and gas tax formula grabbed the headlines as the game-changer for western North Dakota.

Gov. Jack Dalrymple and other law-makers touted a redistribution of the formula from 75-25 percent in favor of the state to 60-40 in favor of local entities. House leadership had other plans and passed a formula with a state-heavy 70-30 split, much to the chagrin of the oil patch.

The NDAOGC scrambled in

Bismarck after the House cuts and pushed through the “bucket” bill, which created the circumstance that, if prices shot back to pre-slump lev-els, automatically, the required state coffers would be funded first, then shooting 30 percent of what’s left over to oil and gas counties.

Lawmakers accepted the bucket bill as a compromise between the state and counties over the 30 percent taken from the original formula revision. The goal is, if prices surge

Hans Peter • Williston HeraldFormer Minot State University swimming star Dagny Knutson instructs kids at the Best Darn Swim Camp at the Williston Area Recreation Center on Monday. The three-day camp concludes today.

BY HANS PETERWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON —After making a big splash in the world abroad, local legend and World Championship swimmer Dagny Knutson has returned to North Dakota to help teach the second annual Best Darn Swim Camp at the Williston Area Recreation Center.

Knutson said she began swimming in the only trainable pool located in Minot, North Dakota. Since then, she’s shattered several state and national records and won handfuls of medals –

many of them gold – at the FINA Youth World Swimming Championships. It’s a lengthy list of achievements for the now 23-year-old college student.

And she hopes her splash will have some ripples. She’s visiting Williston to help spread her knowledge to future swimmers.

According to their website, the Best Darn Swim Camp is coached by Milt Nelms, a swim technique guru, and Mike Stromberg, a nationally recog-nized UND Swim coach. They recruited 32 young swimmers to hone their swim-ming skills on June 1-3. They held a two-hour session for kids over 12 years old, and a later session for those 11 and under.

Nelms has worked with Knutson for several years and Knutson said she appreciates the certain uniqueness he

brings to the pool.“I feel like I have a good understand-

ing of what he’s trying to teach,” Knutson said. “It’s unusual from what’s usually taught in swimming. It’s about teaching swimming around how the body naturally moves.”

Nelms instructed a group of over a dozen kids aged 12 and up. After a few warmup lengths, he gathered his camp-ers around a few sheets of paper taped to the pool room wall. Using a marker, he drew rough diagrams of the human body, explaining correct posture, mak-ing several references to an “energy ghost” that pulls the swimmer through the water and aligns it for maximum speed.

WILLISTON — Tami Frank didn’t know how many people would show up to her “Reading the Tarot” class in the Books on Broad-way bookstore on Monday evening. A naïve person might suggest she put on a turban, wave her hands around and lay out her tarot cards for some divine, awe-inspiring answer. But in all actuality, Tarot cards – and the people who consult them – are often deeply misunder-stood.

Tarot cards have a long history, trailing back to the 1400s, possibly earlier. According to Frank’s class handout, Tarot cards sprout-ed from normal decks of playing cards and an Italian gambling game called Taroc-chi. Over the decades, people began to use the cards in a more esoteric way, provid-ing divination; by the 1800s, they developed into their own system consisting of 78 cards. The cards are broken into two groups called Major and Minor Arcana. They are also divided into four suits: Pentacle, Wand, Cup and

Sword. The cards can also mean different things based on their position, either upright or reversed.

Needless to say, it can take some time to learn how to read these cards.

Vicki Clair, the scheduled teacher for the 90-minute class, couldn’t teach the Tarot class due to an emer-gency in Las Vegas. Frank, her daughter, took over the first class with her 15 years of Tarot reading experience.

Frank said that Tarot Hans Peter • Williston Herald

Pipeline agents replaced

BY ERIC KILLELEAWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON — A Texas-based company planning to build a 1,100-mile pipeline from western North Dakota to Illinois has “replaced a number of agents” from its subsidiary for alleg-edly threatening landown-ers with eminent domain in Williams County, said Chuck Frey, vice president of engineering for Energy Transfer Partners LLC on Tuesday.

“None of our agents should be thinking of eminent domain right now,” Frey told the Williams County Commission, adding he was aware of the alle-gations and the company operates a toll-free tele-phone number to report any concerns.

Subsidiary Dakota Access LLC has acquired 56 percent of easements needed, but Frey wants to reach vol-untary agreements with all landowners to begin construction on the $3.8 billion project this year, he told commissioners. He did not mention telling the state Public Commission Service on May 28 that the company would use the eminent do-main process if agreements were not reached.

Despite local concerns, the commissioners approved a zone change, conditional use permit and plan amendment to facilitate the construction of the 400 barrels of crude oil (BBL) relief tank by Ep-ping Transmission Co. that would support the pipeline by gathering crude on one acre of former agriculture

WILLISTON — With safety always a concern for families, there will soon be a less-lethal means for those who choose to empower themselves.

Last year, there were 56 investigations made and 16 arrests for sexual crimes in Williston. Although, there has been an outstanding amount of progress made in the city since the height of the oil boom, it still leaves some to wonder how safe are we — especially women — are.

At the Williston Fight Club and Yoga, owner Josh Lebsock has brought on international Krav Maga trainer, KC James. James says Krav Maga or literally translated means “contact

combat,” is a self-defense system that was developed for the Israeli military.

Krav Maga steers away from traditional martial arts training and focuses on real-life situations and counter-attacks.

James will be hosting weekend self-defense semi-nars at the Fight Club, saying the focus will not necessarily be on people’s techniques so much as their reactions. “A real fight is sloppy---we will do drills where we incorpo-rate confusion, disorienta-tion, and fatigue,” explains James.

He looks to incorporate a lot of information into the training, such as indica-tors before an attack. He will do a three-part se-ries that covers striking, escape from grabs, and

weapons. “I want to put blueprints in your brain — a flinch will become an attack” says James.

In the event of an abduc-tion, it has to be a fight for life at point A because one might not be given the option if the attacker gets a person to point B. James states that the idea is to inflict injury as fast as possible because the first person injured will usu-ally lose. “You train as the underdog,” James said.

Fellow Fight Club in-structor, Lorena Markezic, understands that situation all too well. She explains a time in her life where she had been attacked but was thankful for martial arts training, as she success-fully evaded a much worse outcome.

James will be training

Markezic to do women-on-ly classes in the future. Al-though James emphasized, “It’s just as important for men and women.”

In the instance of a fight, “I can peacock, but I’m

a big guy,” Lebsock said. “Not all people are as big as me or have had train-ing.”

Lebsock, James, and Markezic are flushing out the details so they can offer the most of what people are looking for in a self-defense class. The first series is expected to begin on June 13 and run the next three Saturdays. The second session will begin on July 11.

For more information about Fight Club and Yoga check out their Facebook page or call Josh Lebsock at (612) 990-2135.

cards have been misrepre-sented and misinterpreted over the years, as in Holly-wood movies depicting odd ducks reading fates using the cards, foretelling death or financial misfortune. The cards have gained a repu-tation for being dark and foreboding, often associated with the occult or satanic influence. Frank said this is all undeserved hype.

“I want to help spread awareness and help in-form people, help get rid of the stigma,” Frank said, unpacking numerous books devoted to Tarot reading.

Frank said Tarot cards can’t foretell your extended future. Rather, they are a tool used for guidance from the divine during the exact moment of the reading – nothing’s set in stone.

“The reading is going on for what’s happening right that second,” she said. “You can change your path. It’s based on the energies of the moment. It’s really just giv-ing suggestions.”

Six people showed up for the first of six classes. A couple were familiar with Tarot cards and could per-form readings, others were new to the practice. Kristy Burt, a young arrival, said she and her sister argued about the credibility of Tarot readings just before

seeing the ad for the class.“My sister was like, ‘you

know those are a scam, right?’” Burt said. “And I said, ‘no, they’re a real thing.”

The first lesson consisted of a basic background and history of Tarot cards. Frank then went on to explain the first two cards of a common Tarot deck: the Fool and the Magician.

The Fool represents differ-ent things based on carefree living, naivety, innocence, or blind faith. Quite differently, the Magician represents skill, potency, manipulation, and power. The implications of these cards change based on their positions, order, etc.

Many companies and artists manufacture their own Tarot decks. They differ mostly in their artistic style, which also slightly changes how the cards may be inter-preted. Tami claimed she has just over 30 decks in her personal collection.

“How to Read the Tarot” classes will continue for the next five weeks. Each les-son is $5. Classes will meet at the Books on Broadway coffee shop from 6-7:30 p.m. Tami assured her students that understanding Tarot cards takes some time, but devoted students will learn.

“Anybody can read Tarot,” Frank said.

According to the affida-vit, Brooks, 49, admitted to downloading images of child pornography and “surrepti-tiously video recording (an underage girl) in the bath-room and in her bedroom.”

Brooks was fired after his arrest, Sheriff Scott Busch-ing said.

“He did a good job,” the sheriff said of Brooks’ gen-eral performance over his nine years.

Brooks’ next court appear-ance is set for July 9, and he is expected to face a jury trial on Aug. 31.

He is being held at the Ward County jail on $250,000 bond.

WILLISTON — Floyd Peterson has lived northeast of Williston for more than three decades and wants his residential neighbor-hood to remain untouched.

Thirteen of his neighbors echoed his thoughts by submitting a letter of op-position Tuesday to the Williams County Commission, asking officials to deny three requests to rezone a total of 10.66 acres of property from residential to commercial use. Many of the residents, who live in the Raulston Subdivision, claimed the appli-

cants were operating recreational vehicles and trucks from the residential property.

“We’ve had problems with these people ignoring the laws,” Peterson said during the commission meeting. “We’ve been here for 35 years and it’s been residential the whole time. We want to keep it residential.”

Despite pleas from Ariston Johnson, a Watford City attorney representing appli-cants Eduardo Garcia, Tim McRae and Don Sorenson, the commissioners accepted the letter of opposition, sided with the petition-ers and demanded all commercial property be removed from the residential land by Aug. 1.

“Times are a changin’,” Johnson said. “I wish my neighborhood would stay quiet, but some things aren’t meant to be. I’m ask-ing for a zone change to recognize the true purpose of the land...My clients want to be good neighbors, but they want to exercise their rights to use the land.”

Commissioners disagreed with that argu-ment and followed recommendations for denial from the Stony Creek Township and the Williams County Planning and Zoning Commission.

Johnson had said the planning and zoning board was being illogical with its reasoning to deny the rezone.

A Williams County Sheriff’s deputy was present during the commissioner’s deci-sion, since law enforcement had to disperse a crowd during the planning and zoning meeting May 14 after receiving reports that the applicants allegedly made threatening comments to their residential neighbors.

WILLISTON — They may not be postal workers, but rain doesn’t stop these folks, either. Williston Vector Control has a daily mission Monday through Friday that plays an important role in state health.

That mission is surveil-lance of Culex tarsalis. The night hunter. Otherwise known as the West Nile virus mosquito.

Fran Bosch is in charge of Williston Vector Control, whose mission dovetails each year with statewide monitoring for the disease-carrying mosquito. State-wide surveillance began Monday.

The state has at least one monitor in every county and has two in Williams County, and also contracts with various cities to have traps as well.

Bosch and his team have placed eight traps between Carolville and Trenton, with five of them in and around Williston. The state checks its traps weekly for any sign of tarsalis. Bosch’s team checks daily.

“If we get 10 or more tarsalis, then we’ll go ahead and spray adulticide,” Bosch said. “We do our own spray-ing, but the Air Force will come back later to help us in late June and in July.”

Unlike the nuisance species that the Air Force Reserves helped spray for last week, tarsalis carries a disease with significant negative impacts for birds, horses and people..

Tarsalis likes to hunt at night, and they are sneaky biters.

“Many people who get West Nile don’t know they’ve been bitten,” Bosch says. “That’s a good survival mechanism for the mosqui-to. They wait until nightfall when prey are sleeping, then fly up in the trees and bite light, so as not to wake up the bird.”

It is the female tarsalis who does the biting. She needs the blood meal to lay eggs. While she really pre-fers to find a roosting bird, she’s not finicky. If a human is handy, that’s good enough. Unfortunately, if she has already bitten an infected bird, she passes the virus along to her human victim. One infected mosquito can infect quite a few birds or human victims.

“Last year in 2014, we

had 23 human cases,” said Michelle Feist, epidemiolo-gist with the North Dakota Department of Health. “And there was one case in Wil-liams County.”

Those represent only re-corded cases, however. Many people do not suffer severe enough symptoms to trigger testing.

“It can affect people differ-ently,” Feist said. “You never know if you’re the one who is going to experience the severe form.”

Those over the age of 50 with underlying medical conditions tend to have the most risk for developing the more severe form of West Nile virus, which can cause inflammation of the brain. Recovery from that can take weeks to months to recover, or if it’s the severe form, it may take a year or more.

Vaccines have been developed for horses, but so far there isn’t a vaccine for people.

West Nile was first detect-ed in 1999 in a woman from West Nile district of Ugan-da, hence the virus’ name. The first North Dakota case was recorded in 2002.

So far state traps haven’t detected any West Nile mosquitoes, but as the sum-mer temperature rises so, too, does Culex tarsalis. The early surveys help serve as an advance warning for po-tential human transmission, Feist said, so the health department can warn the public about the increased risk.

Prevention then becomes key to avoiding an illness that can be potentially severe. Feist recommended avoiding activity after dark, or, if the activity cannot be avoided, wearing long sleeves and pants. People should also wear mosquito repellent if they must be outdoors during tarsalis hunting time.

Anything that can hold standing water should be dumped out at least once a week so that larvae cannot hatch there.

“It’s been raining cats and dogs,” Bosch pointed out. “So anything that can hold water is holding water now. If we get another few days up in the 80s and 90s, tarsa-lis likes warmer weather. Mid-June, that’s when we start catching them.”

WILLISTON — The North Dakota Supreme Court, bas-ing its opinion on population increase and weighted casel-oad, chambered four district court judges Tuesday to Wil-liams, McKenzie, Morton and Burleigh counties.

After receiving the news, Judge David Nelson, of the Northwest Judicial District, interrupted the Williams County Commission meeting and announced Williston and Watford City have obtained judges.

“This is a significant difference that will help us immediately,” Nelson said afterward in his chambers, adding that a new court sys-tem resolved most criminal cases by plea agreement or trial within 18 weeks, but his civil caseload remains booked out for more than two years. “That was yesterday, but today, I can start resched-uling the civil cases for Janu-ary 2016.”

The court’s move comes after the Legislature passed House Bill 1002, which was signed by Gov. Jack Dal-rymple and provided the judges to be assigned by the Supreme Court. Comments were received through the court’s website until May 26. Legislators approved the additional judges effective July 1.

The Northwest Judicial District, comprised of Wil-

liams, McKenzie and Divide counties, has four district judges: three in Williston, and one in Watford City to handle the caseload, which continues to increase despite recent lower oil prices and a decrease in drilling. A judi-cial referee located in Minot travels to Williston one day every two weeks to handle juvenile matters that are not time sensitive (when the two judges are chambered in the district the sharing arrange-ment of the judicial referee would likely be discontin-ued).

“The state’s economic pros-perity over the past years has greatly contributed to the population increase, which has increased the need for ad-ditional judicial resources,” according to a press release from the court, citing the U.S. Census Bureau’s estimate of population rising 9 percent between 2010 and 2014.

Williams County’s popula-tion increased 43.5 percent over that timeframe to 32,130 in July 2014. McKenzie County’s population jumped 72.9 percent to 10,996 and Divide County hiked up 17.4 percent to 2,071, according to the court. The district case filings followed the surge in population rising 53 percent to 23,914 in 2014.

District judges have also been chambered to Dick-inson, of the Southwest Judicial District (36,108 case filings), and Bismarck, of the South Central Judicial District (21,046 case filings).

The Northwest Judicial District was short of the standard by 4.48 judges last

year, and even with support, will need two more judges to meet the demand, Nelson said. The Supreme Court says when the additional judges are chambered, they will “continue to carry the highest caseload in the state.”

Additional judges could be appointed in the summer and would start presiding over cases late in the year, Nelson said. The new Williston-based judge would be set in the existing Williams County Courthouse pending renova-tions to the second floor of the building to accommodate an additional courtroom,

judge’s chambers and staff office space with projected completed by November.

The completion of the additional courtroom marks phase one of a six-phase project to cost $50.23 mil-lion or $54.23 million, if the city of Williston adds 7,200 square feet to the building, said Jim Steinmann, owner of Facilities Development Consultants.

Steinmann has worked with the Williams County Commission on the overall project adding courtrooms, jail cells and office space estimated for completion by the end of 2017.

Been to a few cham-ber of commerce luncheons in my

day, even some where some wonk was brought in to explain policy and funding outlooks and stuff.

Never exactly my cup of tea, but I think I’ve always been pretty good about looking like I didn’t just come for the free food.

Then on Tuesday, I got a load of chamber of com-merce luncheons Williston-style and was completely rapt, almost like an unfro-zen caveman seeing televi-sion for the first time.

In the Frontier Room of the Grand Williston Hotel, there was no talk of wran-glin’ up funding through grants or maximizing efficiencies, or doing more with less.

Nah, just talk of “surge” because, as Brent Bogar of Jadestone Consulting ex-plained, any exciting piece of legislation in North Da-kota comes with a snazzy name. Soon, he explained, the “surge” gave way to the “bucket,” and what was in the bucket? Money, lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of money for Williston and neighboring boom-towns of a lesser boom.

It was fitting that outside, it was raining, pouring, dumping buckets from the sky as Bogar explained that the bill is dubbed buckets because, like a bucket, as as one fills up, the water over-flows into other buckets, except that, in this meta-

phor, it’s not water; it’s cash, and except that the buckets are not plastic containers, but counties and munici-palities that happen to sit on the black gold.

It became difficult, partly due

to unfamiliarity, partly due to jaw-dropping shock at this largesse, to discern the difference between the buckets and the hundreds of millions of dollars in each of them

All I know for sure is that, according to Bogar, one of the buckets holds $725 mil-lion, which is equal to the gross domestic product of the nation of Vanuatu, and which we apparently carry around in buckets. Maybe they do, too.

What was even more shocking and difficult to adjust to than the sheer enormity of dollar figures was the realization of just how close North Dakota came to losing most of these cash buckets.

Had oil prices continued to drop through April, the trigger for oil companies would have set in and the people of North Dakota would have fallen victim to one of the greatest swindles in modern times.

Fortunately, those trig-gers won’t be written into law ever again -- we hope -- though there is still pos-sibility that if oil prices drop through the summer (not likely), November and December could be some lean months before the new deal kicks in to start 2016.

Three weeks ago I came here from a state controlled by Republicans, so I know how out of whack things can get when one party has a stranglehold. And when it’s Republicans doing the strangling, you can bet they’ll cozy up to business at the expense of anything and everything else.

But in Arizona, you kind of have to do that. Other than some copper mining, there’s not a lot of natural resources unless you count nice weather and pretty mountains. Next door in California, you’ve got the world’s fourth-largest economy that seems to do everything in its power to try to drive out business, so you’ve got to do what you have to try to steal away what scraps you can.

But that’s not you, North Dakota.

Maybe no one’s ever told it to you like this, but you’re a pretty girl and you should go to prom with a boy who’s gonna treat you the way you deserve to be treated.

Buckets of rain, buckets of cash

Only in Williston

MattHickman

The Legislature, especially the last two sessions, has put a focus on law enforcement. Lawmakers have ap-proved more funds for training officers and getting them in the field. The oil patch has benefited from this funding, getting additional officers to combat crime and monitor traffic.

More money also has gone to local law enforcement and the court system. And legislators this session approved $2.9 million to fund 16 more parole and probation offi-cers over the next two years. It will be months, however, before the officers are on the job.

There are a record number of people on parole and probation in North Dakota. This is the result of several factors. The state’s population has grown and along with it crime has increased; the strong economy has drawn more people to the state, not all the finest; and the state has been cracking down on offenders.

The Associated Press reported the number of people on parole or probation in North Dakota was 6,843 two weeks ago, up more than 800 people from the same time a year ago and more than 2,050 since 2010.

There are 75 officers who supervise offenders in North Dakota, an average of about 90 cases per officer, accord-ing to Leslie “Barney” Tomanek, director of the state De-partment of Corrections’ parole and probation division. He said the ideal caseload would be about 65 offenders per officer.

In Williston the caseload is about 130-to-1 where three officers handle the cases.

Tomanek expects the caseloads to increase as more officers in the field bring offenders to justice. He said a good number of the 16 new officers will go to the oil fields where they perform record checks, verify employment, administer drug tests and visit offenders’ homes. It’s important work.

The Legislature has been working to boost law enforce-ment across the board. Everyone would like more money and personnel and it becomes a balancing act for law-makers. It’s part of a larger picture the Legislature has started studying and debating. Some argue the state’s locking up too many people for lesser offenses, that alter-natives are needed to incarceration.

The figures indicate both the need for prison time and the option for others to avoid it.

Lloyd Haagenson, who heads the parole office in Wil-liston, said in recent years there have been more people on parole and probation convicted of violent crimes. The number of women on probation or parole has increased 48 percent in five years to 1,815. Haagenson said the bulk of female offenders have drug and theft convictions.

Violent crimes almost always merit time behind bars, but theft and drug cases can differ.

The Tribune has urged the Legislature and judicial system to look at reforms and sentencing alternatives. If more people are given the alternative of probation there needs to be enough officers to monitor them. The 16 new officers will help but more will be needed, especially if the state can find ways to send fewer people to prison and give them a chance to go straight.

Not another dime for VA hospitalWhy are top leaders at the Department of Veterans Af-

fairs not firing bureaucrats by the dozens? That may be the question some veterans were asking during Memori-al Day weekend, as one more VA scandal made headlines.

Just before leaving Washington for the holiday, lead-ers in Congress got the VA off a sharp hook, at least temporarily. It involves a new VA hospital being built in Aurora, Colorado.

After spending hundreds of millions of dollars on the facility, the agency had run out of authority to pour more money into it. Lawmakers agreed to some budgeting changes that should keep construction from coming to a halt.

But Congress will have to provide a Colorado-sized mountain of new cash to complete the hospital, thanks to cost overruns.

A year ago, lawmakers had been assured the cost would be in the $600 million range. Now, the price tag is $1.74 billion. Brace yourself for this: That is for a hospital with 184 beds. Your math is correct: That works out to more than $9.4 million per bed.

Good gracious! Are the bed pans to be made of solid gold?

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

NEWS OF THE ODD

Only in Williston

Photo by Lisa D Stuen PattonThis ‘Dominator’ vehicle, which is used for storm-chasing was spotted cruising through Williston recently. This could be an omen we’re in for a scary tornado season, but in any event, it’s another example of the kinds of things you’ll see in Williston you likely won’t anywhere else. If you’ve seen something that fits the phrase, “Only in Williston,” e-mail it to [email protected].

For most of our lives, the United States lived under the political and economic pressures of OPEC. Yet, recent legislation from Senator Hoeven and a number of his colleagues that lifts the ban on crude exports ensures our state’s economy can remain strong.

The shale oil revolution has stabilized world oil markets and America is now the leading petroleum producer, a fact making the ban on crude exports a relic of the past and no more deserving to be kept around than an old disco ball from the same time period.

The Bakken is one of three formations changing Ameri-ca into an energy supplier and the North Dakota economy has a lot to gain from lifting the ban. Communities across the state have relied on the Bakken for growth.

Across the state of North Dakota, our economy has allowed our communities to attract a new generation of families and businesses, making them more vibrant and bettering our quality of life. When our local economy does better, pharmacies, restaurants and other small business-es succeed and offer all of us better services, choices, and enjoyment. Lifting the ban helps the Bakken and our cities remain strong.

As governor, Senator Hoeven put in place the policies needed to promote all energy production. Lifting the ban is the next step in continuing to grow North Dakota’s energy economy and Senator Hoeven should be thanked for his leadership in lifting the ban.

NEW CHINESE RESTAURANT’S NAME: I DON’T KNOW

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — There’s a new Chinese restaurant in Rochester. The name? I Don’t Know.

Seriously, the I Don’t Know Chinese Restaurant recently opened in the western New York city. Owner Jessie Dong tells the Democrat and Chronicle of Rochester (http://on.rocne.ws/1K98JYg ) that said she came up with the unusual name because whenever she would ask her three chil-dren what they wanted to eat, their response would be: “I don’t know.”

Dong said when it came time to name the new res-taurant, her family didn’t know that either, hence the name I Don’t Know.

Dong is a native of Guang-dong province in China and now lives with her family in the town of Greece, a Roch-ester suburb.

NORTH POLE WON’T BLOCK POT SALES

NORTH POLE, Alaska (AP) — North Pole residents can put marijuana on their Christmas list next year.

The city council in North Pole, Alaska, rejected a

measure Monday that would have banned marijuana dispensaries. Marijuana became legal in Alaska in February, and sales begin next year.

The Fairbanks Daily News-Miner reported even Santa Claus — yes, that’s his real name — testified in favor of selling pot in this Christmas-themed town, where light poles resemble candy canes.

Claus said he is medical marijuana patient, and he’d like to buy pot in North Pole instead of making the short drive to Fairbanks.

ENCOURAGING JOB MARKET NEWS SENDS US STOCKS HIGHER NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. stocks are opening slightly higher

as traders welcomed some encouraging news about the job market.

Payroll processor ADP reported early Wednesday that U.S. companies stepped up hiring in May.

The Dow Jones industrial average rose 29 points, or 0.2 percent, to 18,039 as of 9:35 a.m. Eastern time.

The Standard & Poor’s 500 index rose two points, or 0.1 percent, to 2,111. The Nasdaq composite gained 14 points, or 0.3 percent, to 5,090.

Clothing maker G-III Apparel Group surged 9 percent after reporting earnings and revenue that came in well ahead of what Wall Street analysts were looking for.

Bond prices fell. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note climbed to 2.33 percent.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Finish what you start before taking on a new project. Doing too much for others will stifle your progress. Set realistic goals and adhere to them. Say no to unreasonable demands.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- It’s important to stay motivated. Once you have dedicated your time and ef-fort to a specific path, keep the momentum flowing. You will lose ground if you don’t stay focused.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Call in favors and form partnerships. A creative idea that may seem too daunting to do on your own will come to fruition with additional

support and input. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) --

Highlight your best qualities in order to make an outstand-ing impression. Increased knowledge coupled with a confident attitude will attract both personal and profes-sional allies.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- An organized approach will help you complete your busy schedule. Don’t flit back and forth between various projects. Concentrate on one venture at a time in order to succeed.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Protect your health and as-sets. Insurance, medical and other documents should be given a thorough going over to make sure that you are prepared for any situation that develops.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Love is on the rise. You may be thrown off course by an enticing offer, but wait until you get a clear view of things before you make your move.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You are eager to get ahead, but a pending deal will be riddled with unan-swered questions. Consider

past and future trends so that you can make an informed decision.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Your involvement with a charitable or benevolent organization will bring you satisfaction and a sense of purpose. In addition, you will improve your image in the community and among your colleagues.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Emotions will surface if you pry. Don’t delve too deeply into the private lives of your peers. Your desire to learn personal details will be misinterpreted as meddling or interfering.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If you are single or at-tached, now is the perfect time for romance. Do your best to improve a personal re-lationship, and devote extra attention to stabilizing your love life.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Your perspective will be enhanced by traveling to un-familiar places. Embracing different cultures will make it easier to appeal to a wider variety of people who can of-fer you opportunities.

Daniel Day-Lewis, an Eng-lishman who has won three best-actor Oscars, said, “I come from not just a house-hold but a country where the finesse of language, well-balanced sentence, struc-ture, syntax, these things are driven into us, and my par-ents, bless them, are great custodians of the English language.”

Bridge players know that some finesses require careful preparation, but it is even better when a finesse can be avoided.

In this deal, how should South plan the play in four spades? West cashes his two top hearts, then shifts to the spade queen, and East discards the club queen (top of touching honors as he could not win the trick).

South is well worth game after North raises spades.

Declarer can see three losers: one spade and two hearts. But he also has a potential diamond loser. An inexperienced player would bank everything on the dia-mond finesse, but a better player would see that he does not need it to win.

After taking the third trick, South cashes his second high trump, plays off dummy’s club winners, and ruffs a club in his hand. Let’s assume West discards a heart. Now declarer exits with a trump. West wins, but is endplayed. If he leads a diamond, it is away from the queen. If he plays a heart, South ruffs in one hand and sluffs his diamond loser from the other.

Finally, note that if West follows to the third club, declarer leads a dia-mond to dummy’s ace and ruffs the last club before, if necessary, playing a trump to West.

CROSSWORD

A6 WILLISTON HERALD WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 2015 Comics

Dear Annie: My friend “Nancy” has become one of those stepmothers who negatively influences her husband’s relationship with his adult children.

When things began to turn sour between Nancy and her husband’s daughter, who lived nearby, the daughter retaliated by distancing her-self from her father, refus-ing to see him and avoiding his calls. Nancy persuaded her husband to move across the country. She blames the move on the daughter, who “drove them away,” but I’m sure his daughter sees it as Nancy making sure Dad is totally alienated from his family.

Now, when Nancy’s hus-band speaks of visiting his daughter and her family, Nancy actively tries to dis-courage him, reminding him that he wasn’t treated properly. Family members have suggested to Nancy that she allow her husband to handle his relationship with his daughter on his own, but she’s unwilling to do that.

I hope Nancy’s husband reads this and sees himself. Perhaps other men with con-trolling wives will, too. He should remember that his relationship with his chil-dren predates his marriage to Nancy and that he needs to honor that relationship and quit being so passive around his wife. -- On the

Sidelines, but Been There

Dear Side-lines: Many men would rather aban-don their children than fight with their wives. They also figure the kids don’t need

them that much. But truth-fully, kids always need their parents’ love and support, and once a husband takes a firm stand on the issue, the arguments tend to be short-er, and the wife often backs off. But it takes some initial effort. And by the way, this dynamic works with either spouse. There are husbands who push their wives to move away from their kids, and the wives allow it. Sometimes it borders on an abusive, isolating relation-ship.

You can’t force someone to grow a spine. You’ve expressed your opinion to Nancy, and she has chosen to ignore you. We hope her husband finds a way to reconcile with his daughter before the estrangement is permanent.

Dear Annie: Last night, my husband finally came home after being away for three weeks. He was

exhausted, mentally and physically. He is still tense, and I know it will take him at least a week to recover.

My husband is a trial law-yer. When he takes a case, he applies all of his train-ing and skill, as well as his physical and mental energy toward helping his client. He wears himself out worry-ing about the case. He works as hard as he can on his cli-ent’s behalf until the case is finished. It takes a toll, but I am proud of him.

I wish the people who make jokes about lawyers could see how much my husband cares for his clients and how hard he works for them. -- Married To a Law-yer

Dear Married: What a sweet and supportive let-ter. Lawyers generally have a terrible reputation (“sharks” comes to mind), but most attorneys are dedicated and extremely hardworking professionals. Their job is to represent the client. They are obligated to do their best, but others often blame the attorney if the client is unpopular or the lawyer is aggressive in the client’s defense. But everyone is entitled to legal representation, and no one would want an attorney who makes a half-hearted effort. And many lawyers work pro bono (unpaid) cases in what little spare time they have.

Annie’s Mailbox

BY MIKE NOWATZKIFORUM NEWS SERVICE

BISMARCK — Twenty years after former Gov. Ed Schafer tried to stop the North Dakota Legislature from giving itself the power to reconvene after its regu-lar session, he said he still stands by his objections.

But given the current situation in which lawmak-ers may reunite to finish the budget bill they left hanging when they adjourned April 29, “it kind of makes some sense,” Schafer said Monday.

“The facts at hand are they didn’t get their work done, they need to get their work done, they have two days left and they can do it,” he said.

A six-member interim committee is expected to meet Monday to try to resolve House and Senate differences over Senate Bill 2022, the budget bill for the North Dakota Public Em-ployees Retirement System and the state Retirement and Investment Office.

If they reach agreement, the panel of 17 lawmak-ers known as Legislative Management could vote to reconvene all 141 members of the Legislature, which is tentatively slated for a one-day session June 16.

Sen. Ray Holmberg, R-Grand Forks, who chairs Legislative Management, said the committee’s bipar-tisan makeup and meeting time could be announced today. Its meetings will be public, he said.

Reconvening in such fash-ion would be unprecedented for the Legislature, which historically has been called back into special session by the governor. That’s hap-pened 14 times since state-hood, most recently in No-vember 2011, when current Gov. Jack Dalrymple called lawmakers back for five days for redistricting and a handful of other issues.

North Dakota voters passed a constitutional amendment in 1976 allow-

ing the Legislature to meet for 80 natural days during a two-year period, increasing the length from 60 days.

Lawmakers have used that provision only once to call themselves back into session, according to Legislative Council. It oc-curred after the 1981 regular session, which lasted 60 days from January to March. The Legislature reconvened for four days that November to adopt a new redistricting plan for the next year’s elec-tions, based on new popula-tion figures.

However, that reconven-ing was done by resolution. The authority for lawmak-ers to call themselves back into session wasn’t carved into state law until the 1995 Legislature did so through House Bill 1435.

The bill provided that the committee now known as Legislative Management may reconvene the Legisla-ture after it has adjourned – even if it adjourns sine die, or indefinitely, as the cur-rent Legislature did on the 78th day – provided it has enough natural days left.

Schafer vetoed the legisla-tion, telling lawmakers that the state constitution pro-vided “no express authority to reconvene during the biennium.” He also argued that the bill may impinge upon traditional execu-tive branch authority and “erode the carefully crafted separation of powers” in the constitution.

Lawmakers overrode the veto, and the law took effect.

Schafer also had argued that extending the session beyond its traditional time period didn’t reflect the will of the people and would allow the Legislature to hold annual sessions, but that hasn’t occurred.

“The way they work, it doesn’t look like there’s much possibility of that happening,” he said.

Schafer, who served as governor from 1992 to 2000 and now lives in Fargo, said it was “very disappointing”

that the Legislature didn’t finish its final bill before adjourning.

“The whole thing was a failure, and an unnecessary one,” Schafer said.

Legislature’s reconvening would be first use of that power

BY EMILY WELKERFORUM NEWS SERVICE

FARGO — A man has been sentenced to 19 days in jail by a municipal court judge for driving a Zam-boni while drunk during a high school hockey game on New Year's Eve.

Steven James Anderson faced a Class B misde-meanor driving under the influence charge after wit-nesses reported Anderson was driving the Zamboni erratically during a Fargo Davies girls hockey game against Williston at South Sports Arena.

Prosecutors said Ander-son had a 0.314 percent blood-alcohol content that night.

Defense attorney Lind-sey Haugen said Ander-son wasn't guilty because North Dakota state law doesn't define a Zamboni as a vehicle.

The judge disagreed and found Anderson guilty after about an hour-long trial.

Anderson apologized in court for his actions.

Anderson was employed by the Fargo Park District at the time of the incident.

Man found guilty of drunk Zamboni driving

BISMARCK (AP) — A woman accused of driving the vehicle during a drive-by shooting on the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation has been sentenced to more than two years in prison.

Morgan Williams pleaded guilty earlier to reckless endangerment and terror-izing.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Law enforcement officials say they are beefing up crime fighting efforts in the oil patch of North Dakota and Montana.

A new strike force that includes state and federal agencies is meant to target organized crime, which has been blamed for much of the

increases in human traf-ficking, violent offenses and drug dealing in the Bakken region.

Authorities say more than 200 individuals have been indicted on federal narcotics charges since 2013.

Details of the proposal will be discussed today during news conferences

scheduled in Bismarck and Williston.

The leader of the Justice Department’s organized crime task force, Bruce Ohr, is scheduled to appear along with U.S. attorneys Chris Myers of North Dakota and Mike Cotter of Montana, and North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem.

GUNMAN IN NORTH DAKOTA WAL-MART FATAL SHOOTING WAS DRUNK

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) — Preliminary autopsy results indicate that a U.S. airman was drunk when he opened fire in a Grand Forks Wal-Mart store, killing one worker and injuring a sec-ond employee before killing himself.

Police Lt. Derik Zimmel says 21-year-old Marcell Wil-lis had a blood-alcohol level of 0.19, more than double North Dakota’s legal limit for driving of 0.08.

Willis was a senior airman stationed at Grand Forks Air Force Base. Police say he walked into the store about 1 a.m. on May 26 and shot and killed 70-year-old cashier Gregory Weiland. Willis then shot and wounded 47-year-old overnight gro-cery general manager Lisa Braun, who was released from a hospital over the weekend.

Willis then killed himself. The autopsy concluded that he died of a gunshot wound to the head.

TRIAL UNDERWAY IN JUNE 2013 FATAL TRAFFIC CRASH IN MINOT

MINOT, N.D. (AP) — A Mi-not Air Force Base woman accused of causing a fatal accident in Minot is on trial in the city.

KXMC-TV reports (http://bit.ly/1BKw23G ) that jury selection began Tuesday for the trial of 32-year-old Maria Sutton. She’s accused of driving her car in the wrong lane in June 2013 and striking a vehicle driven by 49-year-old Robert Mor-rison head-on, killing the Westhope man.

Sutton has pleaded not guilty to a felony negligent homicide charge that car-ries a maximum punish-ment of five years in prison. Her trial is scheduled to continue through the rest of the week.

VETS CONFIRM OUTBREAK OF CANINE FLU IN RAPID CITY AREA

Black Hills veterinarians are grappling with an out-break of a highly contagious canine influenza strain that has stricken dozens of dogs in the area, leaving them with high fevers and cough-ing fits.

The disease is typically not fatal, and the flu does not appear to affect humans, experts said.

First detected last year in Asia, the H3N2 strain was discovered in the Chicago area earlier this year, State Veterinarian Dr. Dustin Oedekoven said Tuesday. The third separate case of the dog flu was confirmed in the Rapid City area Tuesday night, a veterinarian said.

“This is primarily a respi-ratory disease so coughing and fever are the most com-mon symptoms, as well as lethargy,” Oedekoven said. “Think of yourself or your kids with the flu and how they feel run-down. They’re hot and they have a severe cough. It’s the same way with dogs.

COMMITTEE TO NEGOTIATE COMPROMISE ON HEALTH BENEFITS

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — The chairman of North Dakota Legislative Manage-ment has named a six-mem-ber committee that will meet in Bismarck next week to negotiate a compromise on public employee insurance and health benefits.

Grand Forks Sen. Ray Holmberg set the committee hearing for 10 a.m. Monday at the state Capitol. If an agreement is reached, the Legislature could reconvene June 16, he told The Bis-marck Tribune

The session ended in April with the House and Senate still at odds over legislation aimed at ensuring that thou-sands of public employees, including lawmakers, can keep the same health ben-

efits and medical providers when their insurer changes July 1.

Sanford Health Plan will provide coverage for the North Dakota Public Em-ployees Retirement System beginning July 1, after un-derbidding Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota, which provided their cover-age for nearly four decades.

Legislative leaders said many public employees worry the new coverage might be lacking. But Sen-ate leaders said legislation aimed at maintaining the same level of benefits went too far and could jeopardize the contract with Sanford Health and spur a lawsuit.

The committee that will try to reach an agreement will include Sens. Rich Wardner, R-Dickinson; Gary Lee, R-Casselton; and Joan Heckaman, D-New Rockford; and Reps. Al Carlson, R-Fargo; Don Vigesaa, R-Coo-perstown; and Kathy Hogan, D-Fargo.

Wardner, who will serve as chairman, said there is no guarantee the issue will be resolved. “We definitely have a difference of opin-ion,” he said. “I’m cautious-ly optimistic.”

JAMESTOWN VOTERS AP-PROVE TAX FOR NEW ACTIVITY CENTER

KSJB reports that unoffi-cial results show 60 percent of the nearly 3,000 voters in Tuesday’s election favored the tax, which will fund the $28.6 million first phase of the Two Rivers Activity Center.

What’s Cookin’, Williston? Somedays you open your fridge, your hungry, and

you only have the patience for a Hot Pocket. What you really want is something easy that won’t break that diet you started yesterday. That diet that makes you want to eat an entire cake and tub of ice cream in one sitting. This pasta marries just enough of easy and healthy.

Healthy Garlicky PastaRecipe Submitted by Jackie Williams Schwan — 1 pkg. of pasta noodles of any kind (I use the high

fiber kind)Boil until done. Drain the pasta by pouring the water

off into a separate container. — Sauté’ 1-2 tbsp minced garlic in about 2tbsp of

olive oil ( stir constantly as it will burn) over medium heat in a non stick pan. Add 1-2 cups of the reserved pasta water (you can add more or less), simmer for 5 minutes, remove from heat. Stir in the drained and cooked pasta, mix well. You can add garlic powder for extra flavor and dried red pepper flakes for extra kick. Sometimes I will sprinkle on some parmesan cheese too for extra flavor.

You could very easily transform this dish into some-thing of your own. I’d suggest replacing the pasta water for white wine, adding a bit of cream, tossing in some artichoke hearts and a protein (chicken, beef etc.)

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Sorry, baby, your picture isn’t going to be on the front of any beer bottles in New Hampshire.

Democratic Gov. Maggie Hassan on Tuesday vetoed a measure that would have allowed some images of minors to grace alcoholic beverage labels as long as they didn’t encourage young people to drink.

Republican state Rep. Keith Murphy, who runs a popular tavern, sponsored the bill because he wanted to be able to buy Breakfast

Stout, crafted by Founders Brewery Co. in Grand Rap-ids, Michigan. The beer’s label depicts a chubby, Nor-man Rockwell-esque baby scooping oatmeal into his mouth.

Hassan said allowing the images could undermine the state’s efforts to fight underage drinking.

“Substance misuse, including alcohol misuse, continues to be one of the major public health and safety challenges facing us as a state,” Hassan said in her veto message. “More-

over, statistics suggest that New Hampshire has among the highest rates of underage drinking in the country.”

Murphy said the veto is an overreach and noted that neighboring Mas-sachusetts, Maine and Vermont sell the beer.

He also pointed out that a New Hampshire-produced craft beer, Smuttynose Baltic Porter, would have to come off the shelves because its label shows Father Time and a baby.

The federal government

already prohibits alcohol labeling or advertising that targets minors.

Murphy’s bill would have given the state’s Liquor Commission discretion to approve or deny labels. He said he could understand the commission denying a label showing college kids partying but not the Break-fast Stout depiction.

“No reasonable person would believe that this label is intended to appeal to minors in any way,” he said.

New Hampshire governor blocks baby pictures on beer bottles

TORONTO (AP) — The people who make craft ciders say their beverages are a gluten-free alternative to beer, but Ontario regulations are putting them at a competitive disadvantage.

The Ontario Craft Cider Associa-tion says its members are licensed like wineries, but cannot qualify for the VQA designation given to top wines, and really compete with craft beers in

the eyes of consumers.Spokesman Thomas Wilson says

craft cider companies are in a regula-tory limbo that allows craft brewers in the province to set lower prices, and need a level playing field to grow the industry. Craft cideries must pay a 40 per cent LCBO mark up on beverages sold directly to restaurants and pubs, which Wilson calls a “huge disadvan-

tage” because craft brewers do not pay any fee.

He says the cider industry is ex-ploding in Ontario, especially among young people looking for the “next new thing,” but cannot list its products in The Beer Store or in private wine stores. Wilson says craft cideries want guaranteed shelf space in LCBO stores under a designated Ontario section.

Ontario craft cider makers say regulations put them at competitive disadvantage

again, there’s a mechanism in place to avoid a special session push or requesting a new surge bill.

“Some legislators outside the oil and gas counties have said there will never be another surge bill like that ever again,” Bogar said. “It’s about looking long-term so we don’t have to fight these battles all the time.”

He said the bill’s creators based it on the scenario that benchmark West Texas Inter-mediate prices rose to $63.60 at 1.1 million barrels per day and no large trigger impact.

The result, if the projec-tion is close, would send $104 million to counties and more than $147 million to Williston. Under the budget scenario passed by the state — $57.81 WTI at 1.1 million bpd and the large trigger — counties are set to own $92 million and Williston $140 million.

The trick with oil prices

is there’s no crystal ball for prediction, just luck and projections.

From the state’s perspec-tive, June is expected to be a boon for production due to the large trigger missing and the seasonal shift to com-plete more wells, said Alison Ritter, spokeswoman for the Department of Mineral Resources.

What happens in June won’t be released until August, she said, because production figures aren’t compiled until two months af-ter. But larger oil companies such as Whiting Petroleum said it would erect more rigs if prices are able to reach $65 per barrel. And prices are trending up about 40 percent since April.

“It’s different for every company,” Ritter said. “The operators will be the ones to know.”

Dan Branham, Williston’s Level 3 and Seniors head coach, followed Nelms around the pool, drinking in his vast ocean of knowledge and experience. “Basically, really elite coaches refer to Milt,” Branham said.

Nelms said every human body is different, presenting defects that hinder movement in the water.

“Hardly anyone breathes like their supposed to,” said Nelms. “I think the water is a great place to reverse some of that stuff.”

Knutson agrees, saying the gen-eration born into technology has more problems with spine posture and muscle quality.

“It’s the 21st century lifestyle,” Knutson said. “People are slouching in front of screens.”

Nelms had Knutson provide ex-amples of proper body movement in the water. She performed numerous exercises at the poolside; the kids

watched attentively as she moved her limbs with grace and power.

Knutson had an unusual path to her stardom as a swimmer. Nelms explains that she was a top recruit fresh out of high school, immediate-ly recognized by the swimming fed-eration. However, she said she never swam for the U.S. Olympic swim team due to an eating disorder and a mishandling of her athletic con-tract. “Dagny was doing everything right,” Nelms said. “She wasn’t the only athlete hung out to dry.”

The past being the past, Knutson has decided to dry off and throw in the towel for good. “I have to do what’s best for my emotional happi-ness,” Knutson said. “I’m in a better place now than I have been.”

The young woman’s life in sports is far from over. She hopes to gradu-ate from Grand Canyon University in Phoenix with a Sports Business degree. Later, she hopes to gain her masters in psychology.

“All of us realize that pipelines are the safe way to handle oil getting out of here,” said Kalil, before adding that his constituents have told him that agents with Dakota Access have threatened them with emi-nent domain. “It’s hard to support Dakota Access when I have people calling me about this.”

Energy Transfer Partners announcement Dakota Access pipeline last year impressed state and local officials with its ability to initially carry 450,000 of crude daily from the Bakken and Three Forks formations through South Dakota and Iowa to a connecting pipe-line in Patoka, Ill. The com-pany must obtain additional

federal and state permits, but plans to put the pipeline to work by late next year.

North Dakota’s estimated 360-mile portion of the route would run through seven counties, crossing the Little Missouri River and the Missouri River. The in-state route would cost $1.4 bil-lion and include 12-30-inch diameter pipelines, buried 4 feet below ground under sites near Stanley, Epping, Trenton and Watford City near Johnson’s Corner.

Employees in Texas would monitor the route, while lo-cal operators would inspect in-state pipelines on a mini-mum schedule of five days per week. Frey said.

Meanwhile, the newly approved relief tank would have a surrounding dyke, which would absorb 110 percent of its crude storage capacity on site.

WSC inks standout from ChicagoAshawn Jones is known for filling a stat sheetBY MARK JONESWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON — The Wil-liston State College men’s basketball program is in the midst of an important pe-riod in the recruiting period.

In the past week, Williston State College men’s basket-ball coach Cory Fehringer has announced several student-athletes have de-clared to sign with Williston State College.

The first piece of that puzzle became clear on Tues-day as Fehringer announced the of Ashawn Jones to a Na-tional Letter of Intent.

Jones, a 6-foot-4, 220-pound player, comes to Williston State from Coffeyville Com-munity College in Kansas.

Jones is a graduate of Farragut High School in Chicago.

During his senior year, Jones averaged 15 points, eight rebounds and six assists a game. Jones led his team in all three categories.

“Ashawn is a unique talent,” Fehringer said. “Who performed at an excep-tional level, while attending Farragut High School.”

Jones graduated from the same high school that produced future NBA Hall of Famer Kevin Garnett.

“Standing at 6-foot-4 and weighing 220 pounds, Jones

can defend multiple posi-tions,” the Williston State College coach said. “And is

capable of impact-ing the offensive end with scoring like a wing, or creating for teammates as a point guard.”

Also during his se-nior year, Jones was named to the Chicago All-City second team. Cliff Alexander

(Kansas) and Jahlil Okafor made the first team during the same year. Fehringer says his ability to play in hostile environments, success in big games and confidence against premier players will allow Jones to have an impact next season.

Color Dash to help TCS raise funds

BY CHARLEE GUILDWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON- Things will be looking bright for the runners this Saturday as the Trinity Christian School in con-junction with the Color Dash in bring-ing to Williston, a 5k Color Dash.

This Saturday at 9 a.m. pick up reg-istration packet, and 11 a.m. the race begins at Spring Lake Park. The race is an all ages event, with the priority to help the Trinity Christian School raise money for their senior mission trip and other expenses.

“This is one of those events where people can bring their families, and bring teams together. It is not timed so there is no rush. And it is a fun way to raise money for a good cause, show off your racing skills, and get out of the house” said Marketing Communica-tions Manager Craig Stevens of Color Dash.

The Trinity Christian School con-tacted the Color Dash in hopes of a partnership to help raise money for school expenses such as playground

equipment,gym, and to help fund the senior mission trip.

“The Color Dash will provide a DJ, jump n’ fun inflatables (free of charge), Mega Latte will be having a booth with beverages to purchase. the Trinity Christian football team will have a dunk tank along with the other athletics set-ting up concessions. It will just be a fun filled morning with activi-ties for all ages” said Jen Scheel delegator of Color Dash.

The Color Dash just started in 2013 and since its creation it has helped many different organi-zations varying from cancer fundraising races, to helping with school expenses. In the past two years, The Color Dash has raised over 1 million dollars, which benefitted many different organizations.

While participating in the Color Run, 50% of the proceeds will go back into the community.

“There will be five color stations throughout the running route, and every so often people just throw the color chalk on the runners” said Schell.

Every runner, once regis-tered, will receive a white T-shirt, a packet of colored chalk, and a temporary CD 5K tattoo.

“The color is safe and easy to get out of your clothes, and it is just a perfect photo op moment for Facebook” continued Stevens.

Schell encourages the community members of all

ages to come out and participate in the Color Dash 5k.For more information and registration please visit www.cd5k.com.

Suess shoots a 77 to open state meetWHS is 12th in team standings with a 349BY MARK JONESWILLISTON HERALD

Williston High School senior Paul Suess shot a 79 Tuesday to finish in a five-way tie for 17th after the opening day of the Class A state meet at Edgewood Golf Course in Fargo.

“Paul played real well as we expected,” said Williston golf coach Matt Liebel.

Trevor Odegard and Trevor Powell each shot a 89 for Williston, while Jadin Norby had a 94 and Isaac Arnson and Easton Clark each carded a 95.

“The others had nerves get to them, I think,” Liebel said. “They settled down after they got over that and played much better.”

West Fargo’s Hunter Moen

shot a 71 Tuesday to hold the individual lead after the first day.

Minot’s Cody Reynolds is second after posting a 73 during Tuesday’s round.

Now that Williston has its nerves behind it, Liebel is expecting good things on Wednesday.

“(Wednesday) should be an even better team score,” the Williston coach said.

In the team standings, Wil-liston is 12th with a 349.

Fargo Shanley and West Fargo share the team lead after the opening day with a 307.

Adrian Peterson returns to Vikings

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Donning his purple No. 28 jersey for the first time in nine months, Adrian Pe-terson said Tuesday he has apologized to the 4-year-old son he struck with a wooden switch and had “learned a lot from my mistake.”

Peterson returned to the Vikings and practiced for the first time since September. He then told reporters he has met all the requirements that came from pleading no contest to a misdemeanor that caused him to miss the final 15 games of last season.

“I made a mistake,” Peterson said. “I know a lot of people don’t view it that way based from what they’ve seen, but ultimately that’s what it was. My son knows that, he knows I love him. And my other kids know the same.”

Peterson was placed on the commissioner’s exempt list last September after he was charged with felony child abuse in Texas. The photos of the wounds that the boy suffered at Peterson’s hands brought harsh criticism of the once-beloved face of the franchise and prompted sponsors to sever ties with him and the Vikings.

He has gone through counseling and therapy sessions as part of his plea agreement and had several supervised visits with his son to monitor how the two interacted. Peterson said he has learned that the form of discipline he used was no longer acceptable and now he uses other punishments like timeouts and taking toys away when it is war-ranted.

“I made a mistake. I’m not taking it lightly at all. It’s something that I regret,” Pe-terson said. “My son knows

that and the people that truly know me and know my character and know what type of person I am when I’m with my kids, around my kids, they know that as well. Really to me, that’s the only thing that matters.”

The relationship between the team and its franchise player has been tense since the abuse allegations first surfaced.

He was angered by a perceived lack of support from some members of the organization, namely Kevin Warren, the team’s chief operating officer.

Shortly after Peterson was reinstated by the league in April, his representatives initially pushed for a trade to get him a fresh start. When that didn’t happen, the focus turned to his contract. Just last week, he vented on Twitter about the details.

Suddenly, Peterson seems ready to put all of that be-hind him.

The 30-year-old will have his $12.75 million salary for 2015 guaranteed in Week 1, but all bets are off after that. Peterson’s search for more guaranteed money in the final two years of his deal brought even more criticism from fans who believed he should be grateful for the or-ganization’s continued sup-port after his legal troubles.

“I’m definitely not the victim and I haven’t tried to play the victim in this role,” Peterson said.

The Vikings maintained all along they had no plans to trade the former NFL MVP, believing that his pres-ence could help turn a team that finished 7-9 last year into a playoff contender.

“We welcome him with open arms, unequivocally,” coach Mike Zimmer said. “He’s been such a tremen-dous, tremendous part of this organization. I have

the utmost respect for him. Always have. I’ve always supported him 100 percent and I will continue to do so as long as he’s with us. Hope-fully that’s for a long, long time.”

It’s been a whirlwind few weeks for Peterson and the Vikings.

Just a week ago, there appeared to be the makings of a bitter contract dis-pute developing between a franchise wondering exactly what it was going to get from a player who missed almost an entire season and from a player still harboring resent-ment toward the league and the team for the convoluted way his discipline unfolded.

Peterson was the only player absent from the vol-untary practices last week, prompting speculation that a prolonged holdout could be in the works.

Zimmer said last week that Peterson had two choices.

“He can play for us, or he cannot play,” Zimmer said. “He’s not going to play for anybody else and that’s just the way it’s going to be.”

Zimmer and Peterson talked not long after those pointed comments, and days later he was on a flight from Houston back up to Minne-apolis to rejoin the team and start to repair an image hit by the child abuse case and ensuing reports that he fa-thered children from several different women.

“I love all my kids with all my heart,” Peterson said. “I’ll run through a brick wall for them. I’ll jump in front of a car for them. That’s the type of love I have for my kids. ... A lot of people like to run with negative things. I’m used to that in life. Not just in my life, but things that I see in this world. But I’m comfortable with know-ing my intentions and I’m comfortable with knowing that my child loves me and he wants to be around me.”

PETERSON: Tense relationship between star RB and franchise

NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE

Johnson leads young high-scoring LightningTAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Tyler

Johnson’s path to the Stan-ley Cup Final is hardly the one he envisioned.

The budding Tampa Bay Lightning star began his pro career as an undrafted pros-pect supposedly too small to succeed. He’s rapidly making a name for himself as part of the exciting young “Triplets” line that’s been one of the keys to his team’s strong playoff run.

Steven Stamkos may by the Lightning captain and face of the franchise. John-son and linemates Ondrej Palat and Nikita Kucherov are proving Tampa Bay is much more than a one-man show.

The speedy trio, which be-gan playing with each other in the minor leagues, has accounted for more half of the Lightning’s 55 goals this postseason.

Johnson, 24, leads the way with 12 — five more than Stamkos, whose 43 goals ranked second in the NHL to Alex Ovechkin’s 53

during the regular season. Kucherov, 21, has nine, and Palat, 24, has seven.

“I just love playing with those guys. We’ve done extremely well all sea-son,” Johnson said Tuesday, the eve of the start of the Cup final against the Chicago Black-hawks.

“For what-ever reason, we kind of clicked together. I’ve been playing with Pallie for about four years now, so I kind of know all the ins and outs with him. But Kuch, he comes on our line, and the very first game it felt natural. It just worked,” Johnson added. “I think we all play similar styles, but at the same time bring something a little bit different. It just works really well.”

Good friends, though not necessarily buddies who spend a lot of time together

off the ice. Johnson, Palat and Kucherov all point to the four months the Light-ning played last season

without an injured Stamkos as a confidence-boosting stretch when they began to realize they had a chance to develop into a dynamic line.

With Stamkos struggling of-fensively early in the playoffs, the

Triplets carried Tampa Bay against Detroit in the first round. When the two-time Maurice Richard Trophy winner began to get back on track against Montreal, the 5-foot-9 Johnson — an All-Star for the first time this season — and his less-her-alded linemates continued to produce.

“I think we’re smart play-ers, I think we think the same way and try to help each other all over the ice,” Kucherov, a second-round

draft pick in 2011, said.“We just put the young

guys together and commit-ted to playing them,” coach Jon Cooper said. “As it turned out, they went from rookies to stars on our team in a short time.

“For me, I had a ton of confidence in these young guys; maybe because I was a rookie myself as a pro. We just kind of made this commitment to come up together.”

Did I ever foresee I was go-ing to be a coach in the NHL, coach the Tampa Bay Light-ning and all these guys we’re all playing for me, I probably couldn’t have predicted that. But I will sit here and say I owe a lot of my success to that.”

Johnson and Palat, a seventh-round pick who’s been much better than general manager Steve Yzer-man anticipated when the Lightning selected him four years ago, both played in the minors under Cooper at Norfolk and Syracuse.

Red Sox end losing skid with 1-0 win over TwinsBOSTON (AP) — Clay Buchholz

pitched eight innings and got all the run support he needed on Rusney Castillo’s RBI single in the eighth as the Boston Red Sox ended a three-game skid with a 1-0 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Tuesday night.

Buchholz (3-6) struck out eight and scattered three hits before Koji Uehara took over in the ninth and picked up his 11th save to preserve the shutout.

Mike Pelfrey (4-2) had a solid start as he and Buchholz both carried a shutout into the seventh inning, when the Red Sox broke the tie. Xander Bogaerts hit a two-out double off the wall in center and scored easily on Castillo’s single up the middle.

Sandy Leon, who walked after Bo-

gaerts’ double, was thrown out at third to end the inning, but the run counted and Buchholz put the Twins down in

order in the eighth. Castillo saved a run in the top of the eighth with a catch on Aaron Hicks’ long fly to the base of the wall in right. Buchholz got his first win since Boston beat Toronto 6-3 on May 10.

Pelfrey allowed one run and six hits, walking two and striking out one.

The Red Sox ended a dismal month of May by going 1-6 on a road trip, which included a three-game sweep by the Twins in Minneapolis last week.

TRAINER’S ROOMTwins: Manager Paul Molitor said an

MRI on RHP Ricky Nolasco’s right an-

kle showed no damage, but his return to the rotation remained uncertain.

Molitor said Nolasco will do some throwing Thursday and the Twins will see how it goes.

Red Sox: RHP Justin Masterson (right shoulder tendinitis) is scheduled for his second rehab start Friday for Double-A Portland.

UP NEXTTwins: RHP Phil Hughes (4-4) makes

his team-high 11th start to open a double-header set up when heavy rain Monday caused the series opener to be postponed. RHP Trevor May (3-3) starts the night game.

Red Sox: LHP Eduardo Rodriguez (1-0) makes his second big-league start after throwing 7 2/3 shutout innings against Texas and winning his debut. Rodriguez scattered three hits and didn’t allow any runs.
