BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — Cheyenne River Sioux Chairman Harold Frazier says opponents of the Dakota Access pipeline haven’t lost hope that they can block its final stretch of construction.

The Cheyenne River and Standing Rock Sioux had asked a federal judge to temporarily stop pipeline developer Energy Transfer Partners from drilling under a Missouri River reservoir in North Dakota until the tribes’ legal claims are resolved.

Those claims include that pipe under the tribes’ source of water would desecrate the water they need for religious practices.

Federal Judge James Boasberg on Monday refused to immediately grant the request but said he’ll more fully consider the idea at a Feb. 27 hearing.

Frazier says he still has hope that the tribe will prevail.

The $3.8 billion pipeline is to move North Dakota oil to Illinois.

 

MINOT, N.D. (AP) — A grassroots group in Minot is working to determine whether the Democratic-NPL Party can be revitalized in the city, or if it’s time for a third party.

The Minot Daily News reports that Republicans have dominated North Dakota politics in recent years, and all 12 Minot-area members of the state Legislature are Republican.

Organizer Nicholas Trumbauer says the group formed a couple of weeks ago, after a message went out over Facebook about a meeting that about 30 people attended.

Trumbauer says the group must make decisions about whether people want to be active on the district level or through an umbrella group encompassing Minot’s four districts.

Trumbauer says progressive-minded people are invited to bring ideas to the group’s next meeting Wednesday.

STORRS, Conn. (AP) — Add 100 consecutive wins to the UConn Huskies’ long list of milestones that includes 11 women’s basketball national titles.

The game drew a sellout crowd of 10,167 that included past greats Sue Bird, Maya Moore, Tina Charles and Breanna Stewart, who helped the Huskies to the first 75 wins of this streak.

NBA-OAKLEY

 

NEW YORK (AP) — Michael Jordan and NBA Commissioner Adam Silver are helping patch up the relationship between Charles Oakley and Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan.

The league said Oakley and Dolan met with Silver yesterday at NBA headquarters, with Jordan participating by phone as peacemaker.

Oakley was arrested last Wednesday following an altercation with MSG security while attending a Knicks game, and Dolan banned the former Knicks star from the arena two days later.

Silver called the Oakley-Dolan tiff “beyond disheartening.”
