The support group will be held at the Hospice of the Red River Valley office at 1240 West Main Street in Valley City, the second Thursday of each month, starting in August, from 2-3:30 p.m.

For more information, please contact Traci Issendorf, bereavement specialist at Hospice of the Red River Valley, at (800) 237-4629 or bereavement@hrrv.org.

If enough interest is gauged during the introductory session, this will become an ongoing support group available in Valley City.

 

 DEVILS LAKE, N.D. (AP) – A 60-year-old man died over the weekend in a trench collapse in Benson County.
 
     Sheriff Steve Rohrer says William Collins Jr. was installing a water line to a rural home northwest of Churchs Ferry late Sunday afternoon when the trench that had been dug for the line caved in.
 
     Three other people were at the site and rescue crews were called in, but Rohrer says Collins died of his injuries at the scene.

 

 WEST FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Authorities have identified a 28-year-old man who was shot in rural Cass County.
 
     The sheriff’s office says Akeem Johnson received medical treatment for injuries that were not life-threatening after the shooting in the West Fargo area Friday night.
 
     The sheriff’s office is still investigating the incident and has not released additional information.

 

 FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Taylor Swift fans in North Dakota will have to wait a little longer to see her play live as the Grammy Award-winning singer’s show in Fargo has been postponed until October.
 
     Organizers on Monday announced that Swift’s concert at the Fargodome has been moved from Sept. 9 to Oct. 12.
 
     The change comes as Swift’s planned concert at the home of the Houston Astros had to be moved up to Sept. 9 in case of a playoff run.
 
     Tickets purchased for the September show in Fargo will be honored on Oct. 12, but those who are unable to attend because of the change can receive a refund.
 

 

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A judge in Bismarck says he needs more time to review a lawsuit filed by opponents of the Common Core education standards.
 
     Tioga Republican Rep. Bob Skarphol and three other plaintiffs want to bar the state from paying membership fees to an organization that’s writing tests for the federally backed standards.
 
     Opponents last month sued Gov. Jack Dalrymple, state Superintendent Kirsten Baesler and other state officials alleging North Dakota entered into an illegal agreement when it joined the multistate Smarter Balanced Assessment consortium.
 
     Attorneys for the state want the lawsuit thrown out.
 
     South Central District Judge David Reich says he will make a decision “as soon as I can.”
 
     The North Dakota lawsuit is similar to one that succeeded in Missouri in February but is on appeal.

In sports…

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Four-time defending Football Championship Subdivision winner North Dakota State is favored to win the Missouri Valley Football Conference.
 
     A poll of league coaches, media and sports information directors released Monday shows that NDSU earned 32 of a possible 40 first-place votes for 389 points. Illinois State, the team the Bison edged in last year’s FCS championship, received the other eight first-place votes and 366 points.
 
     Northern Iowa is picked third with 300 points, followed by Youngstown State with 265, South Dakota State with 251, Indiana State with 180, Southern Illinois with 143, Western Illinois with 139, Missouri State with 91 and South Dakota with 66.
 
     NDSU and Illinois state shared the conference title a year ago. The Missouri Valley has six national titles in 30 years as a conference.

 

In world and national news…

 DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Calling global warming one of the “most urgent threats of our time,” Hillary Rodham Clinton is detailing new energy proposals in Iowa to address climate change. But she’s still not taking a position on the Keystone XL oil pipeline. The Democratic presidential contender is proposing that every home in the United States be powered by renewable sources by 2027.
 
     NORTH KINGSTOWN, R.I. (AP) – Construction is under way for the nation’s first offshore wind farm. And Interior Secretary Sally Jewell calls it a “pioneering moment” for the industry. Deepwater Wind is building a five-turbine wind farm off Block Island. It expects the wind farm to power 17,000 homes as early as next year.
 
     UNDATED (AP) – A company that runs regional flights for the nation’s biggest airlines says those flights could be disrupted by a pilot shortage and a labor standoff. Republic Airways says it’s talking with American, United, Delta and US Airways about reducing its flying for those airlines through the first half of next year. It blames the pilot shortage on federal rules raising training requirements for new pilots and increasing crew-rest hours.
 
     OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) – The Oklahoma medical examiner’s office says all five members of a Broken Arrow family killed last week died from multiple sharp-force injuries, and police have said two knives and a small hatchet were found at the scene. Eighteen-year-old Robert Bever is accused in a booking document of five counts of first-degree murder and a count of aggravated assault in the Wednesday night attack at the family home. Prosecutors say they plan to also charge Bever’s unidentified 16-year-old brother as an adult in the case.
 
     ATLANTA (AP) – Bobby Brown says he feels “completely numb” after the death of his daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown. In a statement, he says 22-year-old Bobbi Kristina was an angel. She died yesterday at a Georgia hospital, about six months after she was found, face-down and unresponsive in a bathtub in her suburban Atlanta townhome. A police report described it as a drowning. Bobbi Kristina was the only child of Whitney Houston and R&B singer Bobby Brown. A medical examiner says an autopsy will be needed to evaluate what led to her death.
