Our dog took me for a walk and the air smells so good. We have been Blessed with and should be grateful for another good week of weather. Other people in the U-S-A have been less fortunate, please remember those people.<\/p>\n<p>Be careful around the river, the ice is not safe. Very few cubic feet per second (cfs) are being released from Baldhill Dam as the pool is low and inflow is minimal to none. That said, having the sunshine is nice, but our whole state needs some rain.<\/p>\n<p>Some \u201cnormalcy\u201d: North Dakota High School Activities Assoc. (NDHSAA) spring sports begin this week. VCSU is already playing softball and baseball. They provide good entertainment, come out, watch awhile and enjoy the fresh air.<\/p>\n<p>While walking the other day I noticed houses without house numbers and some that are not readily seen. Please consider updating your house numbers to ensure efficient deliveries etc.<\/p>\n<p>It is spring though unlike normal years, UND traveled to NDSU to play football last Saturday! If I understood the announcers correctly, it was the largest indoor crowd in the nation that day. It is good trivia and good for North Dakota that the football rivalry is reinstated.<\/p>\n<p>This is a legislative year. There are some bills that could affect you.

(AP) \u2014 A federal judge has denied a sentence reduction sought by a man convicted of murder and other charges stemming from the 1983 Medina shootout in North Dakota which took the lives of two U.S. marshals. Scott Faul argued that his breathing problems and conditions of his incarceration have created an increased risk of complications from COVID-19. According to federal documents, Faul also says his imprisonment is unlawful because of bias and insufficient evidence. Faul was sentenced to life in prison on murder charges and an additional 15 years on other offenses.<\/p>\n<p>WEST FARGO (KFGO) \u2013 Police are investigating a shooting, the second in as many nights in West Fargo.<\/p>\n<p>Officers responded to Parkway Drive and 9th St. W at about 7 p.m. Monday.

(AP) \u2014 The Biden administration has scrapped a Department of Interior opinion under Donald Trump that attempted to strip mineral rights under the original Missouri River riverbed from a North Dakota tribal nation. The memorandum posted Friday by the U.S. Department of Interior withdraws a May 2020 opinion concluding that the state is legal owner of submerged lands beneath the river where it flows through the Fort Berthold Reservation. That memo rolled back an Obama administration favoring the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nation, which immediately filed a federal lawsuit opposing the decision. Interior officials said in a statement that the reversal will allow the agency to review the matter and ensure it is upholding its \u201ctrust and treaty obligations in accordance with the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D.

Scott Davis has been executive director of the commission since 2009, when he was appointed by then-Gov. John Hoeven. Davis plans to join Sanford Health as head of Native American outreach. Davis has served three governors, 23 tribal chairs and five tribal nations. He has also worked with numerous state and federal agencies in his cabinet-level position. Burgum says Davis has tackled issues including education, court systems, economic development, social services, gaming, energy, law enforcement, transportation, health care, veterans and youth.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 North Dakota\u2019s Legislature has bumped tax collection expectations for the next two-year spending cycle, with budget writers banking on stable oil prices and production. House and Senate appropriation committees on Monday forecast general fund tax collections at about $4 billion. That&#8217;s $95 million more than the Republican-led Legislature&#8217;s budgetary starting point in January. The Legislature\u2019s appropriations committees have adopted an estimated price of $60 a barrel, and predict production will decline from about 1.1 million barrels daily to 1 million barrels over the next two years. North Dakota sweet crude was fetching about $60 a barrel on Monday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In sports&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Some North Dakota senators have amended a transgender sports bill to make the legislation apply only to high school teams and not to college or club sports. The Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday voted 6-1 in favor of an amended version of a House bill passed last month. The amended bill would prohibit a publicly funded school or entity from knowingly allowing a person under 18 to play on a team that is exclusively for the opposite sex. However, the bill would allow girls to participate in school sports for boys. The bill now goes to the full Senate for a vote.<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 North Dakota\u2019s Senate has killed a resolution that would have let residents decide if sports gambling should be allowed in the state. The Senate initially killed the bill on Friday. It was reconsidered on Monday, but still failed 23-24. It passed the House last month by a wide margin. If it would have been approved by both chambers, a measure to allow sports gambling would have appeared on the November 2022 ballot. About two dozen states have attempted to capitalize on the U.S. Supreme Court\u2019s decision that lifted a federal ban on sports gambling.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-content\">\n<p>Monday<\/p>\n<p>UJ Golf<\/p>\n<p>Women<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-172319\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/golf2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/golf2-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/golf2-768x512.jpg 768w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/golf2-263x175.jpg 263w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/golf2.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>PANORA, Iowa\u00a0 (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.jimmiepride.com\/article\/5920\">UJ<\/a>)\u00a0 \u2014<\/strong>\u00a0Led by <a id=\"rosterLink0\" class=\"rosterProfileLink \" title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.jimmiepride.com\/roster\/21\/13\/9955\" data-url=\"\/SIDHelp\/briefBio\/21\/13\/9955\" data-original-title=\"\">Paige Argent<\/a> (SR\/Minot, N.D.), the University of Jamestown women\u2019s golf team is second in the six-team field of the Jimmie Spring Swing.
