BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple is ordering state agencies to fly flags at half-staff to honor U.S. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and a Fargo police officer who was killed in the line of duty recently.<\/p>\n

Dalrymple says the U.S. and North Dakota flags will be lowered on the day of each man’s funeral. Scalia is to be buried Saturday. The service for Officer Jason Moszer will held on Monday at Scheels Arena in Fargo.<\/p>\n

The 79-year-old Scalia was found dead Saturday at a resort ranch in Texas. Officials said he died of natural causes.<\/p>\n

Moszer died a week ago of a gunshot wound during a standoff with a suspect at a house near downtown Fargo.<\/p>\n

Dalrymple is encouraging North Dakota residents to lower their flags, too.<\/p>\n

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Nearly four years after retiring its controversial Fighting Sioux nickname, the University of North Dakota put some of the Indian head gear on sale to satisfy a legal agreement with the group that found the logo hostile and abusive.<\/p>\n

UND officials say the settlement with the NCAA requires that the school maintain the Fighting Sioux trademark and the only way to do that is market the product. So a limited series of items known as the Dacotah Heritage Collection hit the shelves last week.<\/p>\n

UND Interim President Ed Schafer says it would be better if the school did not have to sell the old gear, especially now that the school is transitioning to its new nickname, Fighting Hawks.<\/p>\n

NCAA officials did not respond to repeated email and phone messages.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – An Arizona man working in the North Dakota oil patch has been sentenced for robbing two banks.<\/p>\n

Fifty-nine-year-old Gary Thomas pleaded guilty last November to robbing the BNC National Bank in Stanley the morning of Aug. 13 and the Dacotah Bank in Minot that afternoon. Authorities say he took a total of about $11,000.<\/p>\n

U.S. Attorney Christopher Myers says Thomas was sentenced this week to serve five years and 11 months in prison, to be followed by five years of supervised release. Thomas also must pay restitution.<\/p>\n

Thomas told U.S. District Judge Daniel Hovland earlier that he robbed the banks because he was “deep in debt” due to less work because of the oil slowdown, work truck expenses and health problems.<\/p>\n

Thomas has previous bank robbery convictions in Arizona.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A Bismarck man has been sentenced to time served, three years of supervised release and restitution for defrauding the Internal Revenue Service.<\/p>\n

Authorities say 39-year-old Solomon Lindsay created a scheme in which he filed tax returns for others with inflated incomes and false credits, resulting in bogus refunds. He then skimmed much of the refunds for himself.<\/p>\n

U.S. Attorney Chris Meyers says the IRS paid out fraudulent refunds totaling nearly $141,000. Lindsay must repay the money.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota’s top budget official says she’s confident state agencies will be able to “live within” mandatory budget cuts to help make up for a more than $1 billion budget shortfall that’s largely due to slumping oil prices.<\/p>\n

Budget Director Pam Sharp says state agencies have submitted the required cuts ordered by Gov. Jack Dalrymple earlier this month. Dalrymple ordered agencies that receive general fund dollars to trim their budgets by 4.05 percent, or about $245 million.<\/p>\n

Sharp says she doesn’t know of any agency that is cutting positions but many are limiting raises and bonuses.<\/p>\n

In addition to the agency cuts, Dalrymple also is taking about $498 million from a rainy fund. The remainder of the shortfall comes from an ending-fund balance of about $331 million.<\/p>\n

MANNING, N.D. (AP) – Dunn County is taking its battle to apply zoning to oil and gas development to the North Dakota Supreme Court.<\/p>\n

A district judge on Tuesday ruled that the state Industrial Commission, which regulates energy development in the state, has sole jurisdiction over an oil waste treatment facility in the county.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0 County Commission on Wednesday decided to appeal to the high court.<\/p>\n

State’s Attorney Pat Merriman says the issue is bigger than Dunn County. He says the ruling adversely affects all oil-producing counties.<\/p>\n

\u00a0 Southwest District Judge Dan Greenwood<\/strong> said in his ruling that there is a dearth of case law on the topic and that he relied on three attorney general opinions that support the Industrial Commission’s jurisdiction.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

UNDATED (AP) – It’s not like Donald Trump’s Republican rivals to come to his aid — but some of them are disagreeing with Pope Francis, who Thursday suggested that Trump is not a Christian because he wants to build a wall between Mexico and the United States. Jeb Bush\u00a0 said he doesn’t question Trump’s Christianity, nor anyone else’s, because “that’s a relationship you have with your creator.” And Marco Rubio says, just like Vatican City, the United States has a right to control its borders. As for Trump, he says the pope’s comments are “disgraceful.” He says if the Islamic State group ever attacks the Vatican, Francis will be wishing Trump had been president.<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) – When President Barack Obama travels to Cuba next month, he’ll meet with President Raul Castro — but not with Castro’s brother Fidel. The White House says Obama will also interact with members of Cuban “civil society” — a reference to activists who advocate for various social causes. Obama has said he would only travel to Cuba if he could speak to all kinds of groups — including those that oppose the Castro government.<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Barack Obama has signed legislation that imposes more stringent sanctions on North Korea because of its nuclear weapons program. Lawmakers overwhelmingly and swiftly approved the bill earlier this month. The expanded sanctions are designed to deny North Korea the money it needs to develop miniaturized nuclear warheads and the long-range missiles needed to deliver them.<\/p>\n

ANKARA, Turkey (AP) – Turkey is blaming Kurdish militants at home and in neighboring Syria for Wednesday’s deadly bombing in Ankara. An attacker killed 28 people and wounded dozens more while targeting buses carrying military personnel. Turkey is stepping up pressure on the U.S. to sever ties with the Syrian Kurdish militia that has been a key force against the Islamic State group in the Syrian conflict.<\/p>\n

NEW YORK (AP) – A three-day rally on Wall Street has lost steam Thursday. Stocks have been mixed to mostly lower for most of the day. Consumer stocks are sliding after Wal-Mart reported disappointing results and cut its sales projections, and bank stocks are giving up some of their recent gains.<\/p>\n
