Jack Dalrymple Wednesday announced his appointment of Maj. Michael Gerhart Jr. to replace Col. James Prochniak as Superintendent of the North Dakota Highway Patrol. Gerhart, whose appointment and promotion to the rank of colonel is effective July 1, will direct the Highway Patrol services of 168 troopers and manage a two-year budget of $61 million.<\/p>\n<p>Prochniak, who began his career with the North Dakota Highway Patrol in 1987 and has served as the Highway Patrol\u2019s superintendent since August 2009, is retiring as of July 1, 2014.<\/p>\n<p>Dalrymple said, &#8220;Maj. Gerhart is a proven leader and a dedicated law enforcement officer who has done an outstanding job in every management position he has earned at the North Dakota Highway Patrol. The citizens of North Dakota will benefit from Mike\u2019s extensive experience as a trooper and supervisor in our oil and gas region as well as his experience directing the agency\u2019s training and serving as field commander. The North Dakota Highway Patrol is one of the best trained and most professional in the nation and I know that Maj. Gerhart will continue that strong tradition.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The governor thanked Col. Prochniak for 27 years of dedicated service to the people of North Dakota.<\/p>\n<p>Dalrymple said, &#8220;Col. Prochniak\u2019s strong leadership has been critical during this remarkable time of growth throughout North Dakota. We have significantly increased the number of troopers serving on North Dakota\u2019s roadways and it\u2019s because of Jim\u2019s dedication and leadership that we have maintained very high standards for our troopers while still meeting the state\u2019s needs for a larger Highway Patrol presence. We are very grateful for Jim\u2019s dedicated service to the people of North Dakota and we wish him all the best.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Gerhart began his career with the Highway Patrol in 1992, serving as a trooper based in Kenmare. Gerhart was promoted to regional sergeant in Minot and served in that role until August 2008, when he was promoted to lieutenant and appointed to serve as the Highway Patrol\u2019s Safety and Education Officer. In 2009, Gerhart was named director of the Highway Patrol\u2019s Law Enforcement Training Academy and in 2011, he was promoted to Major and appointed Field Operations Commander of the North Dakota Highway Patrol.<\/p>\n<p>Gerhart received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management and Business Administration from Dickinson State University in 1991. He is a 2006 graduate of Northwestern University Traffic Institute\u2019s School of Police Staff and Command.<\/p>\n<p>Prochniak began his career with the Highway Patrol in 1987. As a trooper, he was stationed in Bismarck, Minnewaukan, Casselton, and Fargo. In 1998, he was promoted to sergeant and served as district supervisor in Bismarck and Fargo. Prochniak was promoted to captain in 2005 and served as commander of the Fargo District. During his career, Prochniak also served as the agency\u2019s safety coordinator, an instructor at the Law Enforcement Training Academy, commander of the Highway Patrol\u2019s Emergency Response Team and as an accident reconstructionist. He was appointed superintendent of the Highway Patrol in August 2009.<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK (CSi) The North Dakota National Guard Tuesday night hosted retired Gen. David H. Petraeus during a forum at the Raymond J. Bohn armory in Bismarck after his visit to the Bakken oil patch in western North Dakota. Petraeus joined Maj. Gen. David Sprynczynatyk, North Dakota adjutant general, to discuss leadership and to provide insight into his military career in front of an audience of Guardsmen, family members and special guests, including Kelly L. Schmidt, state treasurer and Dr. Larry Skogen, interim chancellor for the North Dakota University System.<\/p>\n<p>Sprynczynatyk said as he introduced the former Army commander and CIA director,<br \/>\n&#8220;Whenever you think of great Americans associated with wars and conflicts, such as Gen. (Norman) Schwarzkopf with Desert Storm, Gen. (William) Westmoreland and Vietnam, you also associate the accomplishments of the Global War on Terrorism in Iraq and Afghanistan with Gen. Petraeus.&#8221;<br \/>\nPetraeus&#8217; distinguished military career includes service in Haiti, Bosnia, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan. In the decade that followed 9\/11, he was deployed overseas for nearly 7 years, and led six straight commands, five of which were in combat. During last night&#8217;s forum, he encouraged attendees to always seek &#8220;excellence at whatever level, job or position you currently hold as you advance through the ranks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After a 25-minute discussion moderated by Sprynczynatyk, Petraeus called on members of the audience for questions. One attendee asked the retired general about his thoughts on military members serving multiple deployments. Petraeus said, &#8220;It&#8217;s a privilege to serve our nation in uniform.&#8221; Being &#8220;boots on the ground&#8221; himself for many years during the Global War on Terrorism, he told the group that he understands the hardships that they and their family members face. Petraeus&#8217; son currently serves in the military.<\/p>\n<p>After the presentation, Petraeus met with audience members, several of whom served under his commands in Iraq and Afghanistan during the Global War on Terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>\u3000<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK &#8212; Authorities in North Dakota are accusing a man and a woman of plotting to convince another woman to post the man&#8217;s bond to get out of jail.<\/p>\n<p>28-year-old Christopher Dutchuk and 23-year-old Samantha Flemmer have been charged in connection with the scheme. Among other charges, they are facing a misdemeanor conspiracy to commit impersonating officials.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities say Flemmer impersonated a law enforcement officer during a three-way conversation and told the other woman that Dutchuk had checks that he would use to pay her if she posted his $35,000 bond.<\/p>\n<p>The Burleigh County Sheriff&#8217;s office says a detective uncovered the plot after reviewing recordings of telephone conversations that Dutchuk had with Flemmer and the woman while he was in the county jail on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>FARGO -\u2013 Friends and former colleagues here are mourning the unexpected loss of a former Fargo North Spartan, city commissioner and Great Plains Software executive.<\/p>\n<p>Steve Sydness, who also made an unsuccessful bid in 1992 to be a U.S. senator from North Dakota, died April 16 in his Wellesley, Mass., home after a brief, undisclosed illness, according to an obituary provided by family.

Experts have estimated that the franchise, which moved to Los Angeles in 1984, could now be worth as much as $800 million.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, some experts said Sterling\u2019s fellow owners might be hesitant to support action they felt might set a precedent that could jeopardize their own property rights in the future.<\/p>\n<p>Mike D&#8217;Antoni has resigned as head coach of the L.A.
