Fargo (CSi Red Cross) — The American Red Cross has mounted a massive relief in the wake of Hurricane/Tropical Storm Harvey, along the Texas Gulf Coast with over 100 mph winds and up to 35 inches of rain, leading to devastating and life-threatening flooding. Tornadoes have also hit the region. The storm is expected to hover over parts of Texas and Louisiana for several days.
The Red Cross is mobilizing hundreds of trained Red Cross disaster relief workers, as well as tens of thousands of ready-to-eat meals to support this response effort. Trailers full of shelter supplies including cots and blankets—enough to support more than 20,000 people—are scheduled to arrive in Texas.
CEO Lynn Speral, says, “Paul and Barb Henke have deployed from Valley City and drove the Red Cross emergency response vehicle to Texas
The American Red Cross has sent 19 volunteers from the Dakotas region to help with the Hurricane Harvey relief effort in Texas, but more help is needed.
More than 40 Red Cross emergency response vehicles are activated, including four in the Dakotas Region, with more on alert. The Red Cross is also working in close collaboration with government officials and community partners in both Texas and Louisiana to coordinate potential response efforts.
The Dakotas Region Red Cross will hold training sessions for volunteers at 1:30 and 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at the Red Cross chapter office in Fargo, 2602 12th St. N. Anyone interested in volunteering with the Red Cross locally and/or help with disasters around the country should attend this training session, according to the Red Cross.
We’re thankful for the dedication of volunteers who are willing to drop everything to help those in need,” said Allen and Carol Becker of Minot are also deploying; they will drive an emergency response vehicle from Western North Dakota to Texas. Several volunteers in the Red Cross chapters in South Dakota are on their way to Texas or scheduled for deployment.

Update:
FARGO, N.D. (AP) — Prosecutors in North Dakota say a woman charged in the disappearance of Savanna Greywind admitted taking advantage of the pregnant woman in an attempt to get her baby.
But charges filed Monday against Brooke Lynn Crews and her boyfriend, William Hoehn, don’t shed any light on how 22-year-old Savanna Greywind died. Her body was found Sunday night in the Red River near Fargo.
A criminal complaint says Brooke Lynn Crews told police she arranged to have 22-year-old Savanna Greywind come to her apartment on August 19, 2017 and told her how to induce labor.
Crews told police that Greywind came back two days later to give her the newborn baby.
But Crews’ boyfriend, William Hoehn (HANE), told police that he came home Aug. 19 to find Crews cleaning up blood in their bathroom. Hoehn says Crews presented him with an infant baby girl and said: “This is our baby.”
Crews and Hoehn are charged with conspiracy to commit murder and other counts. They didn’t enter pleas during a court hearing Monday.
Bond was both was set at $2-million cash.
Jamestown (NDFU) – The “Sky’s the Limit” at the fifth annual WILD (Women in Leadership Development) Conference slated for Jamestown on Sept. 13-14 at the North Dakota Farmers Union (NDFU) Conference Center. Women will find inspiration from nationally-recognized speakers and encouragement to eliminate the words “I can’t” and “there are limits” from their vocabulary.
Chelsey Jacobson, NDFU conference leader, says, “The goal of the conference is to encourage women to be active and passionate about getting involved in their communities and in leadership roles.”
Lauren Leader-Chivee, a writer, researcher and thought leader on diversity and women’s issues in the workplace and in between, is one of two keynote speakers. She was named by Fortune magazine as one of the “50 Most Influential Women on Twitter,” and currently serves on the prestigious Council on Foreign Relations. She is the author of Crossing the Thinnest Line.
North Dakotan Rebecca Undem will also share the speaker spotlight. She aims to inspire women to live BIG (Bold, Inspired, Growth-Oriented) lives and view all the detours as an opportunity to grow and evolve. She’ll share relatable excerpts from her book, How Mommy Got Her Groove Back, which encourages people to take a step back and focus on the important things in life.
The conference begins with the popular Ladies’ Night on Wednesday, Sept. 13. Participants can shop at a variety of vendor booths, enjoy appetizers and wine, and learn some self-defense techniques taught by the North Dakota Safety Council.
Along with keynote speakers on Thursday, Sept. 14, a panel of North Dakota women in agriculture and leadership positions will be sharing their inspiring stories.
Conference sponsors include NDFU, Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Dakota, and Farmers Union Insurance.
Cost of the two-day event is $99 and open to the public. Attendees must be NDFU members ($30 membership required). However, that cost is easily recouped from savings in products, services and grocery store discounts through NDFU’s Member Benefits Plus program.
To register, go to www.ndfu.org/wild. For more information, follow the conference at www.facebook.com/ndfuwild or contact Chelsey Jacobson at cjacobson@ndfu.org or 701-952-0131.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A federal judge deciding whether to shut down the Dakota Access pipeline while more environmental review is done is allowing national energy trade groups to have a say.
Judge James Boasberg, in Washington, D.C., granted the request Friday, just days before Monday’s final deadline for all parties involved in the legal dispute to submit arguments.
The $3.8 billion pipeline began moving North Dakota oil to Illinois June 1. But Boasberg later that month ordered federal officials to further review the pipeline’s impact on the Standing Rock Sioux, one of four tribes continuing to fight in court.
The trade groups maintain that ceasing pipeline operations would seriously impact the oil industry.
Boasberg earlier approved a schedule for arguments that set Monday as the final deadline. His ruling could come any time after that.
MINOT, N.D. (AP) — Scandinavian folk art classes will be offered during the annual Norsk Hostfest at the State Fairgrounds in Minot.
The early registration is now being taken for Hostfest University.
Chairwoman Candi Helseth says people who sign up with early registration will get $20 off the price of admission to the fest on the day they attend their class. This is the third year that Helseth will oversee the Hostfest University classes.
Helseth says the classes are $75 in addition to the cost of materials. They’re intended for adults, but children 12 and older will be allowed to enroll with parent permission.
The Norsk Hostfest is scheduled to take place in late September.

Valley City (VCSU) The VCSU Vikings open season with September 2, 2017 home football game, hosting Dickinson State University. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m. Tailgating and the Handy Hardware Fan Zone begin at 1 p.m.
Bismarck (CSi) The State game and Fish Department advises hunters that
North Dakota’s popular hunting seasons for grouse and partridge will open Saturday, September 9, 2017.
State Game and Fish Department upland game biologist R.J. Gross says hunters will likely see fewer sharptails and Huns compared to last year, while ruffed grouse numbers are up from 2016.
Gross said that hot, dry early summer weather likely reduced grouse production in many areas due to poor habitat conditions and low insect production.
“Numbers in the northeast show up a little better than other areas,” Gross said. “But yet, there will be localized areas with good chick survival in most parts of the state.”
Huns respond better to drought conditions, Gross said, and do better in dry years compared to sharptails. “Huns have generally been a bonus bird the past handful of years,” he added. “Hunters will still find pockets of decent hunting, but it may require more time in the field.”
Ruffed grouse spring drumming counts were up in the Turtle Mountains, and good numbers of broods were reported in the Pembina Hills.
Shooting hours for the upcoming season are one-half hour before sunrise to sunset. Sharptails, ruffed grouse and Huns each have a daily limit of three and a possession limit of 12.
Hunters, regardless of age, must have a fishing, hunting and furbearer certificate and general game and habitat license. In addition, hunters age 16 and older need a small game license.
For further season information and regulations, hunters should consult the North Dakota 2017-18 Small Game Hunting Guide.
In world and national news…
HOUSTON (AP) — The National Hurricane Center says Harvey is drifting “erratically” back toward the Gulf Coast after having moved inland since making landfall late Friday. An advisory Monday afternoon from the center says life-threatening flooding continues for Houston and the broader Southeastern Texas region. Harvey has maximum sustained winds of 40 mph and the center says it may slowly intensify as it moves closer to the coast. Harvey is forecast to turn back toward the northeast at some point Tuesday.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Officials of the Trump administration are vowing to help the millions of Texas residents dealing with Hurricane Harvey’s catastrophic flooding. Vice President Mike Pence says the federal government will be on hand “for the long haul” as Texas and other areas rebuild. Pence estimates that 500,000 Americans could be eligible for disaster assistance. President Donald Trump plans to visit Texas on Tuesday.
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Louisiana’s governor says potential flooding from Harvey’s torrential rains poses a “dangerous situation,” but the state hasn’t received any reports yet of flood-damaged homes. Gov. John Bel Edwards said at a press briefing Monday that he expects the potential for flood damage to increase as bands of rain continue to lash the southwestern part of the state.
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to restore the flow of surplus military gear to local police departments. The Obama administration severely limited the program two years ago amid a public outcry over how the equipment was used during protests in Ferguson, Missouri, after the fatal police shooting of 18-year-old Michael Brown. But Attorney General Jeff Sessions says those restrictions went too far. He says the new approach will boost public safety.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) — The new leader of the Palestinian militant group Hamas says it has repaired relations with Iran after a five-year rift and is gearing up for renewed hostilities with Israel. Yehiyeh Sinwar told reporters that Iran is now “the largest backer financially and militarily” to Hamas’ armed wing.
