JAMESTOWN, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Farmers Union is

contributing $5,000 to a reward fund set up for information to

leading to a conviction in the shooting deaths of nine Oliver

County cattle on the Fourth of July.

That increases the reward fund to $18,000. The North Dakota

Stockmen’s Association says it’s the largest such reward in state

history.

State Farmers Union President Woody Barth says the organization

is concerned that someone would randomly shoot and kill cattle.

 

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A man who’s accused of killing his mother
and stealing her car says he’s not guilty.
     Dean Grenstiner made his pleas Monday during a brief appearance
in state district court in Bismarck.
     Judge Donald Jorgensen says Grenstiner’s next court date is Aug.
27.
     Grenstiner’s arraignment was delayed so he could undergo an
independent psychiatric examination.  

However, his plea Monday didn’t make any reference to his mental health.
     Grenstiner is being held without bail on charges that he beat
his mother to death in her home last March.

Authorities say Grenstiner was living with his mother, Ann Grenstiner, for several weeks before she was killed.
     Grenstiner was also charged with stealing his mother’s car. He
was arrested in Moorhead, Minn., the day after his mother’s body
was discovered.

 

In sports…

 

GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – Brothers Billy and Marty Cariveau
caught nine catfish weighing just under 76  1/2 pounds to win the
annual Red River catfish tournament in the Grand Forks area.

     Billy Cariveau is from Fargo and Marty Cariveau is from East
Grand Forks, Minn. 

They beat the runners-up by about half a pound this weekend to take home the top prize of $3,712.

A total of 116 boats took part in the tournament.
     The Cariveau brothers have competed in the tournament for 10
years. The highest they had finished previously was fifth.
    

 In world and national news…

 

CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) – He’s accused in 12 deaths and the
wounding of 58 others in the Colorado theater shootings, but James
Holmes was charged Monday in court with 24 counts of murder and 116
counts of attempted murder — two counts for each victim.

The dual charges are designed to create more options during sentencing, if
he’s convicted.
     
     CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) – A family member says the woman who lost
her 6-year-old daughter in the Aurora theater shooting and suffered
a miscarriage is expected to be paralyzed as a result of her
injuries.

 MaryEllen Hansen says doctors still hope her niece,
Ashley Moser, will have use of her arms.

Hansen also says the funeral of 6-year-old Veronica Moser-Sullivan has been delayed until her mother is able to attend, and there’s no estimate on when
that will be.
    
     COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) – A Kent State University student accused of
posting a message on Twitter saying he planned to “shoot up” the
northeastern Ohio campus has been instructed to stay away from the
school and its president.

William Koberna will be released after posting part of a $50,000 bond. He will be required to wear a GPS tracking device.
     
     WASHINGTON (AP) – The U.S. Postal Service is bracing for a
first-ever default on billions of dollars in payments due to the
Treasury.

That’s adding to widening uncertainty about the mail
agency’s solvency.

With cash running low, the Postal Service says
it will not make two legally required payments for future retiree
health benefits – $5.5 billion due Wednesday, and another $5.6
billion due in September.
    
     PASADENA, Calif. (AP) – NASA’s most ambitious and expensive Mars
mission begins this weekend with the arrival of the smartest rover
ever built.

Like an Olympic gymnast, the rover must “stick the
landing.”

It will take seven minutes to slow down from a blazing
13,000 mph to a complete stop with the help of a parachute, heat
shield and rockets.

If all goes well, Curiosity will spend two years trying to figure out if the Mars environment was once suitable for microbes.
