Okay, class, pop quiz time. What do you get when you mix a young substitute teacher with a classroom full of the seemingly dumbest (and funniest) pupils found anywhere? A wise-creaking musical that\u2019s sure to put a smile on the principal\u2019s face, that\u2019s what.

It\u2019s one inane answer after another as Miss Quackenbush tries to promote this bunch of block heads outta here. It won\u2019t be easy, though.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 North Dakota is continuing to pursue a 17-year-old bankruptcy court battle with the owner of a horse betting business despite a federal judge\u2019s blistering rebuke of the state\u2019s actions in the case. Judge Thad Collins last month ruled against state claims in the complicated legal odyssey that began in 2004. Collins wrote, \u201cenough is enough,\u201d and called the litigation \u201ca runaway process that must stop.\u201d The state on May 6 filed a notice of appeal. The formal appeal is due next month.<\/p>\n
