\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The case is being tried in North Dakota because Fargo-based Noridian Healthcare Solutions LLC processes and pays Medicare Part B claims in Washington state.

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0WADENA, Minn. (AP) – A group of Minnesota fourth-graders has finished the book of a classmate who died of leukemia a year and half ago.
\n\u00a0

\n\u00a0
\nEach of the fourth-graders in Wadena was assigned a chapter for the book not knowing what anyone else was writing. Jane’s mother, Jil Fiemeyer, says all chapters fit together perfectly.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Carson Kern, one of Jane Fiemeyer’s classmates, says he thinks Jane is “looking down and smiling.”

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A committee screening candidates for a Bismarck-based judgeship is starting the process over, with the blessing of Gov. Jack Dalrymple.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The committee says it erred when it sent the names of two finalists to Dalrymple earlier this month because one of the finalists held an office with a political party at the time he applied. That violates North Dakota’s judicial conduct rules.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The committee took responsibility for the oversight, saying Brian Grosinger disclosed the fact that he was a Republican district vice chairman.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dalrymple has reconvened the committee to forward a new list of finalists to replace South Central District Judge Donald Jorgensen, who plans to retire on July 3.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The U.S. Department of Agriculture says good progress has been made in North Dakota planting as producers say they’ve got 67 percent of their corn crop planted and can now turn their attention to soybeans.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 All areas in the state are still behind their five-year averages, but the USDA says some are still faring well despite a rainy spring.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Farmers have planted 78 percent of sugar beets so far compared the average 92 percent. The department says 66 percent of oats are planted this year, compared to the 73 percent average.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 But producers have gotten only 19 percent of potatoes in the ground, compared with the 56 percent average, and just 13 percent of dry beans are planted compared to the 32 percent average.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The National Sunflower Association says sunflower planting in North Dakota is up from last year after a late start, but is still down compared to the state’s five-year average.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 So far the group says state sunflower farmers have gotten 13 percent of their crop in the ground, compared to 11 percent at this time last year. The five-year average is 23 percent.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Growers in Texas have gotten 50 percent in the ground while sunflower planters in Colorado have planted just 3 percent of their crop.<\/p>\n

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – Texas closer Joakim Soria bobbled a slow-bouncing ball and allowed the winning run to score in the Twins’ 4-3 victory over the Rangers last night. The day began ominously for the Rangers when star pitcher Yu Darvish was scratched from his scheduled start with stiffness in his neck. Fill-in Scott Baker gave up three hits over six innings.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NEW YORK (AP) – Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling has responded to the NBA’s attempt to oust him.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He says there is no basis for stripping him of his team because his racist statements were illegally recorded “during an inflamed lovers’ quarrel in which he was clearly distraught.”
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sterling says V. Stiviano recorded him without his knowledge and thus the recording was illegal under California law. He also said he could not have “willfully” damaged the league because he did not know it would be made public.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Meanwhile, the attorney for Shelly Sterling confirmed that Donald Sterling has given her written permission to sell the team. A person in contact with a potential bidder told The Associated Press that the Clippers are seeking binding bids before next Tuesday, the day NBA owners are scheduled to vote on whether to strip Sterling of the team.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NBA president of basketball operations Rod Thorn said George’s comments came in the postgame news conference following the 102-90 loss to the Heat on Monday night.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Miami was 30 of 34 from the foul line in the game. Indiana was 11 of 17.

SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) – It’s advantage hackers according to a new survey on cybercrime. The 12th annual survey of 500 executives of U.S. businesses, law enforcement services and government agencies finds that online attackers determined to break into computers, steal information and interfere with business are more technologically advanced than those trying to stop them. Three out of four respondents said they had detected a security breach in the past year.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – The international fight against radical extremists will get a boost from the United States. Making the morning rounds on network TV, including “CBS This Morning,” Secretary of State John Kerry says the United States will begin a $5 billion “terrorism partnership fund” to help other countries push back. Kerry says President Barack Obama will announce the fund during his commencement speech today at West Point.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 DENVER (AP) – Authorities in a remote part of western Colorado say it’s still too dangerous to search for three ranchers missing in a massive mudslide. The land is dangerously unstable, and authorities worry about additional slides. They say things might not improve until summer and the search for the men may eventually resume.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FREEHOLD, N.J. (AP) – A life prison sentence is expected today for a New Jersey man who tossed his 2-year-old daughter into a creek while she was strapped into her car seat. Arthur Morgan III is scheduled to appear in court in Monmouth County. He was convicted of murder last month and prosecutors say Morgan killed his daughter to get back at her mother for breaking off their engagement.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 THE HAGUE, Netherlands (AP) – The European Union’s police organization says there were fewer terror attacks last year across the 28-nation bloc, but the threat remains “acute and diverse.” In an annual report on terrorism, Europol says radicals who travel to fight alongside militants in conflicts like the Syrian civil war are “posing an increased threat to all EU member states on their return.”
