SMALL BITES AND FREE RANGE THINKING
New Patients & Families Welcome
armers Market season is upon us and a couple things were brought to my attention this week. As you know, my other job is promoting local food systems. That translates into North Dakota growing food that stays in North Dakota and can be eaten by local residents. Local food systems are reminiscent of a time 30 years ago when nearly everything you ate was produced locally. Now, we import most of the food we eat. So, I ask that you just think about that for a moment. What if Gas prices rise to the point where shipping lettuce from California becomes impossible to justify? There was a natural disaster and/or the unthinkable terrorism act that prevents CRAZY: 26 trucks from delivering to big box stores. There is approximately three days worth of food on the shelves and after that what would you do? Check us out on Facebook! While you are thinking about that here is a Facebook post addressing the cost of food at farmers markets. Annie and John Carlson farm in Mercer and Annie is also

the executive director of FARRMS. Annie writes, A Facebook friend of mine asked why farmers market prices are so much higher than the grocery store. Below is By Sue B. my response. Please chime Balcom in with reasons I may have missed or questions/comments of your own! I wont speak for everyone, but here are some reasons why my booth was/is more expensive than the grocery store: I pay myself a living wage for my time. There are no illegal immigrants working in my garden, pastures or kitchen for mere pennies. My ingredients/tools are bought at retail prices. I do not have access to deep wholesale discounts that large corporate conglomerates do. I drive 50 miles, one way. I pay a market fee to sell. I pay myself to sell my product. I do not have loss leaders, a product that I sell way below cost just to get people in the door to buy other things. Each item has a cost, a TRUE cost of production. The vast majority of the work is done by hand. For example, there are no machines (similar to combines) to harvest greens in ND. Or pick peas. Or dig potatoes (farmers market vendors anyway). Its all done by hand and see #1. There are no alternative incomes just yet. In meat processing, the large packers actually lose almost $10 per head on retail cuts, but make about $90 per head selling the offal to rendering plants for pet food. Local processors have to pay to have the offal trucked away. Most farmers market vendors have no way to market the seconds (the less than stellar product) like making blemished tomatoes into salsa, ketchup, etc. I am asking you to pay the true cost of production. I can provide you with a spreadsheet that details all of our expenses, pays us a wage, and a profit. That sets my price point. Each product has to pay its way or we cant sell it. That is fair and

Memorial Ride benefits cancer center; honors wife

THIS IS ENDERLIN
or Rocky Gabel, its a matter of keeping his wifes name alive. And, it may be to help alleviate the suffering of people from a terrible disease, but hopefully prevent more suffering from occurring in the future. Gabel and others have organized a motorcycle ride and raffle held annually in the memory of Gabels late wife, Debbie. Debbie lost her struggle with ovarian cancer in 2009. That was four years after they discovered she had it. This year, the fourth ride will be held on July 27. It begins at 11:45 a.m. at the VFW in Valley City. The ride and raffle raises funds for hospice care and for such organizations as Relay for Life advocating for those who are fighting cancer. Gabel said that he had other relatives who have died who were not remembered after their deaths and he didnt want that to happen with Debbie. Gabel is the owner of the Valley City-based Gabel Construction Company, where his wife, who he has known since junior high, also worked. The Gabels became interested in riding after Debbie was diagnosed with cancer. Their hobby has now provided a means to help others and possibly make sure that some women do something about their cancer in time to take action against it. The initial event was a motorcycle
ride, which was held in 2009. That has given way to a raffle as the chief means of raising funds. Gabel said that they have been able to raise more than $10,000 donated to Hospice of the Red River Valley. That organization also contributes to the event. Gabel said that the hospice program has done a lot of the printing and advertising for the event. Gabel said he hopes that the next step will be corporate sponsorships of the event, to raise even more money. They have some corporate sponsors now, but Gabel said he would like to have more next year. In previous years, the organizers have auctioned off motorcycles. Gable said that this year they are doing something a little bit different and maybe broadening audience appeal by auctioning off of a Polaris Ranger utility vehicle. The raffle ticket sales, which Gabel says is the most labor-intensive part of the annual event can generate between $40,000 and $60,000. The ride also generates funds and interest in the event, with as many as 300 riders participating, according to Gabel. The ride includes a street dance on Main Avenue and is the symbolic end of the event. Music this year is being provided by the Kentucky-based country band, The Michael D. band. The event has a website and Facebook page to further promote the event. Information on the ride can be found at www.thunderingsaints.com. It can be found on Facebook by searching for Debbie Gabel Memorial
Cancer Ride. The events presence in the Internet world is also the result of donated work. My personal goal, Gabel said, is to help one lady per year get through this. But, Gabel, and his efforts are able to do more than that. Hospice told us last year that if it wasnt for the money that our organization raised, they wouldnt have been able to keep the Valley City chapter open. Some of the money also goes to Relay for Life and to Womens Way in Jamestown. They organization also makes some small donations to individual local women who are suffering from cancer. Gabel said that the annual event also has some therapeutic value for women who have cancer and their loved ones. Its just an avenue for people to come up and just talk about it, he said. Gabel said hes also trying to get some word about cancer prevention as well as treatment. Gabel says a lot of his focus has been on the type of cancer that his wife had, ovarian cancer, which he said In the case of his wife, and for other women, sneaks up on people without any warning. That makes him an advocate of women getting tested for it. He said that women should get a CA-125 test for a protein that becomes elevated when women have ovarian cancer. The American Cancer Society, on its website, states that women should get this test once a year. Gabel said that in his experience, people dont really

runk driving continues to take a terrible toll on the nation, killing almost 10,000 people each year. In 2011, drunk driving crashes accounted for 31 percent of all motor vehicle crash deaths nationally -- unfortunately, North Dakotas statistics are significantly higher.

Research shows the best way to prevent impaired driving is through strong laws and active enforcement of the laws.

orth Dakota boaters are reminded that children ages 12-15 who want to operate a boat or personal watercraft must take the states boating basics course. State law requires youngsters ages 12-15 to pass the course before they operate a boat or personal watercraft with at least a 10 horsepower motor. In addition, major insurance companies give adult boat owners who pass the course a premium discount
on boat insurance. The course is available for home-study from the North Dakota Game and Fish Departments Bismarck office. Two commercial providers also offer the course online, and links to those sites are found on the departments website at gf.nd.gov. While the home-study course is free, students will be charged a fee to take it online. The online provider charges for the course, not the Game and Fish Depart-
ment. The fee stays with the online provider. Upon completion of the online test, and providing a credit card number, students will be able to print out a temporary certification card, and within 10 days a permanent card will be mailed. The course covers legal requirements, navigation rules, getting underway, accidents and special topics such as weather, rules of the road, laws, life saving and first aid.

VALLEY CITY BARNES COUNTY LIBRARY NOTES States pronghorn population increases Not making changes in the first year
orth Dakotas pronghorn population is finally growing after five years of steady decline. However, Bruce Stillings, big game supervisor for the State Game and Fish Department, said numbers are still below population objectives and not high enough to warrant a hunting season. Therefore, the Game and Fish Department is recommending the pronghorn hunting season remain closed in 2013. Recent survey results indicate the statewide population is 5,400 pronghorn, 49 percent higher than last year, but still 62 percent below 2008, the last year a hunting season was held. We expected to see a population increase due to another year without a hunting season and a mild winter across much of our pronghorn range, which led to high adult and fawn survival, Stillings said. This year, Stillings mentioned, fawn production was average to below average in all management regions.He said another
0714#621
mild to average winter in 2013 should encourage future population growth, but challenges remain with pronghorn habitat in the west. Fragmentation of habitat due to energy development and loss of Conservation Reserve Program acres in the secondary range are challenges facing future pronghorn recovery in the state, Stillings said. The aerial survey is flown in late June/early July after young-of-the-year are born and visible. Five airplanes covered more than 11,000 square miles of aerial transects within pronghorn habitat. Biologists will continue to monitor pronghorn numbers in the future, and will reopen the season when the population returns to a level capable of withstanding a harvest. The 2013 pronghorn season will be closed to both gun and archery hunters. Applicants who have accumulated preference points will maintain their current points.

ello Barnes County. In library school we were told, If you ever become a director dont make any changes the first year. I think, for the most part, Ive done a pretty good job holding to this idea. A very great majority of what we are doing at the library has been improvements and upgrades. Most of the things we will be doing over the next few months will also fall under improvements and upgrades. This said I had to make a very big change this week; I hired a new Youth Services Coordinator. Please note I did not say improvement here. It would be very difficult for anyone to improve on what Mary Anne did here for thirty plus years. This will be a change, but a really good one. Therefore I am very happy to announce Melissa Lloyd has agreed to become our new Youth Services Coordinator. Melissa will be responsible for both the childrens library and our new teen area. She has BA in English/speech, communications, and a theater minor from VCSU. She added an additional library minor to her resume in 2011 and is considering adding a Masters in library science in the future. I am very sure Melissa is up to the task and will meet or exceed everyones expectations. Please give her your hearty congratulations. Two upcoming events everyone should know about. On Wednesday July 17th the library will be having our annual Summer Reading Fun Day for the children. Starting at 10:30 children can participate in several different activities related to this years summer reading theme of Dig into Reading. Parents and caregivers: dirt, water, chalk, and similar messy things will be used so please plan accordingly. The event ends promptly at 12:30 so make sure you get here by noon so your children will have time
to participate in most of the activities. The second event is the following week on Wednesday July 24th, which is Crazy Day. The library once again will be serving coffee and rolls from 8 AM to noon. This year we are partnering with Vickys Viking Room and you will have the choice of one of Vickys huge cinnamon, caramel, or orange rolls. The cost will be $3.50 for coffee and a roll or $3.00 for just a roll. We will also have books and VHS tapes for sale. Ill be around if youre in the mood to wheel and deal. If you have any questions or suggestions about the future of the library please feel free to call or stop in and talk with me. My door is always open, unless its closed. Items to note: The library has an official Facebook page. Simply search for the Valley City Barnes County Public Library. You will know you have the right one if it has the librarys picture on it. We have 130 likes and I know there are a lot more people in Barnes County who use Facebook. So if you want all the most up-to-date information about the goings on at the library, give us a like. Summer Reading 2013 ends July 20. Theres still plenty of time for children, teens, and adults to Dig into Reading. We still have lots of fun prizes for everyone who finishes the program. Story hour will continue during July at its regular time, Wednesdays 10:30-11. July 17 - Fun Day at the library July 24 - Valley City Crazy Day July 31 - No story hour No story hours during the month of August. Childrens staff needs some time off to recover from SRP. Story hour will resume Wednesday, Sept. 4.

he Valley City area has a number of lost parksparks that have been lost to memory, as have many other things. These parks are mentioned in old newspaper articles and elsewhere, but the exact location of the park may not be given as much as to say that everyone at the time knew where it was, so they didnt bother giving the precise location. Sometimes a plaque or other marker is no longer there if it ever was. For instance, all that was said about the location of Luna Park in the Times-Record article was that it was near the mill. Misattributed photograph that does not actually Not long after I began collecting show Luna Park. post card photographs, I obtained a photograph labeled Luna Park, on Sheyenne River, Valley City, N.D. The photograph was taken from the bluff above the river looking upstream toward the old power plant. The old mill is to the left. You may ask, as I did, where, exactly, the park is in this picture. Surely the park is not the steeply sloping grass-and-weed patch in the foreground. The center of the photograph seems to be the trees just across the river at the inside of the bend. I assumed this was the focus of the picture, and hence it was probably Luna Park; after all, I had several other photographs from the period that Luna Park todaya popular fishing spot. were taken of the same view. It was a (Photograph by Dennis Stillings) popular subject for photographers of

the time. I was wrong, and the caption on the post card was wrong. Becky Heise, perhaps the person most knowledgeable in local history, recently found the record of the Transfer of Deed for the Luna Park property at the County Recorders office. The deed was recorded in Book 34, page 499. The record states that the property of concern was Lot 9, Block 2 in the Andrus & Sifton Addition. This would locate Luna Park at the south end of the 3rd Ave. SE footbridge. According to a front-page article in the June 5th Evening Times-Record, there was a Luna Park dedication and picnic at the site at which the deed to the property was transferred to the City of Valley City by Frank and Elsie White with the special agreement and understanding that the same shall be used exclusively by the grantee and its successors and assigns for Park Purposes and that the same shall be open to the public, as and for a public park. Apparently funds for the purchase of the land from the Millwhich owned several pieces of property in the areawere raised by the Civic Improvement League with a contribution of $300 from Elsie White and E. S. DeLancey. After the Transfer of Deed for $1.00, it was left to name the park. Elsie White felt that since the deed was

to have been transferred the day before, which was a day of a total lunar eclipse, it would be appropriate to name it Luna Park. (A fairly weak reason, By Dennis I would say, since it Stillings was also reported in the Evening TimesRecord that the sky around Valley City was overcast that night, preventing Elsie or anyone else from seeing the eclipse.) More likely, the name just came to Elsies mind because Luna Park was a popular name for parks all over the world at the time. This was due to the fame and popularity of the fabulous original Luna Park at Coney Island, which had opened in 1903just six years earlier. This column has given me far more trouble than most, so I would appreciate it if, whenever you go fishing below the mill dam, you would say: Im going fishing at Luna Park.

ears of rising water, a record number of fishing lakes and aggressive fish management in North Dakota have helped produce record fishing license sales. State Game and Fish Department fisheries chief Greg Power said in 201213 virtually every license category established a record high, or at the least had a substantial increase. Even more impressive is this was spread throughout the state, and not just in the rapidly growing counties of western North Dakota, Power said. Statistics compiled by the Game and Fish Department revealed more than 218,000 fishing licenses were sold last year, 20 percent higher than the previous record set in 1982. A total of 159,500 resident fishing licenses

were sold last year, also breaking the record set 30 years ago. In addition, nearly 59,000 nonresident fishing licenses were purchased last year, easily surpassing the previous high set two years ago. North Dakota remains near the top in the country in terms of per capita residents who fish, Power said. In terms of actual individuals participating in fishing, the past year was again record-setting with more than 200,000 active anglers and about 2 million days of fishing. Both open water and ice fishing activity experienced substantial increases. Lake Sakakawea, Devils Lake and Lake Oahe/Missouri River remained the top three fisheries in the state. hhh, basil! Even the word carries a whiff of its invigorating scent. But its the aromatic leaves themselves that contain dozens of volatile essential oils. Their relative concentration is the difference between regular Genovese basil, Thai basil, Lemon basil, Holy Basil, Cinnamon Basil, African Basil and all the other basils youll find your local farmer growing. There are a few rules to remember when buying and using basil. Rule #1: Use only the freshest basil. The fresher it is, the better it is. The fragrance of basil is never as seductive as when it is first plucked from a live plant and eaten raw, as quickly as possible after plucking. This is why you should think about having a pot of basil of your own on the kitchen window sill or in your back yard. The next best thing is to get basil from a local farmer at a Farmers Market or through a CSA. Rule #2: Dont cook basil dont even heat it
up if you can help it. When adding basil to a pasta sauce or a pizza, do so only at the last minute, while tossing with the pasta or after the pizza has emerged from the oven. Basil pesto too, should always be used raw, never warmed up or cooked. Rule #3: Stay away from knives. The cut edges of basil will blacken and the overall flavor will be diminished. Instead, simply use whole leaves or tear large leaves into small pieces with your hands before scattering them over a tomato salad, mashing them into a basil butter for corn on the cob, sprinkling on green bean salads, or roasted eggplant, zucchini, or peppers. For more summer fun, experiment with the many scented and colored basils that farmers are now bringing to market, including lemon, anise, Thai, cinnamon, and purple basils. Rule #4: Use basil only in the summer. This relates back to Rule #1, bringing us full circle. Basil is the ultimate summer herb. Its rich perfume evokes warm sunny days and mouthwatering combinations with other summer vegetablestomatoes, zucchini, peppers. Sure, you can get it year-round in the grocery store, but like tomatoes, basil tends to be insipid when grown in a greenhouse or flown in from California. Some things in life are definitely worth the wait. Basil is one of them.

Parcel shower a delightful event

A look back at early area history as found in the archives of the Enderlin Historical Society and Museum. Museum website: enderlinmuseum.org This week we will take a look back at social activities as found in the June 25, 1914 issue of The Enderlin Independent. ************ Delightful Parcel Shower. ---------------he Misses Ida Klingbeil and Agnes Sack gave a parcel shower at the G. A. Nelson home last Saturday evening in honor of Miss Helen Best. The house was beautifully trimmed with pink and white wild roses and peonies, the color scheme being pink and white; crepe paper was draped through out the rooms, making them look very dainty and the odor of the flowers greeted the guests as they entered. After the guests had all gathered Miss Sack proceeded to escort the bride-to-be to the place of merriment. Miss Best had made arrangements to spend the night with Miss Sack and Mrs. Nelson graciously phoned down and invited the girls to come up and have some ice cream before retiring. The thought of home made ice cream was very tempting but Miss Best was also very tired from a hard days work, and begged at the school house corner for Miss Sack to go ahead and get the ice cream and let her rest at the school house steps, but after much persuading she decided to get there some way. The lights were all out in the house and Mrs. Nelson came out on the porch and met them. 340 E. MAIN ST. She was so surprised VALLEY CITY she soon forgot she was tired, which is saying quite enough. The guests amused themselves by the compiling www.jimmyspizza.com of autobiographies of the - OPEN DAILY AT 4 PM guests present. The parcels which had Pick-Up Pizza Dine-In Wings been placed in a little Delivery Salads cradle, stood in one corner Take-n-Bake Pasta of the room, and before Many additional items also available. refreshments Miss Best Owners opened each parcel and MIKE & JULIE MARTIN thanked each giver in a very graceful manner. A delicious two-course lunch was served at midnight, this also being carried out in the pink and white color By Susan scheme. Schlecht At a late hour the guests departed, wishing the future bride much joy and thanking the hostesses for the delightful evening they had spent. ****************** Sues Comments: I have noticed from reading many articles about social events from that era, most times the events lasted well past midnight, with the lunch being served at midnight! Upon checking the Enderlin Alumni Directory, I find that Miss Helen Best graduated from Enderlin High School in 1908. The 1910 Census of Enderlin shows that the Nelson residence was on Fourth Avenue so it was probably up the schoolhouse hill, therefore the reason for the tired young lady desiring to remain on the schoolhouse steps! ****************** Watch for more history next week!

OPINION: GADFLY
The spittoons are gone but the slime is still there

because we won a division shooting championship. My black troops and their black wives and girl friends were despoiling the Atlantic Ocean! But thats another personal story. By Ed I still remember when Raymond Lena Horne, perhaps the best singer of her time, was entertaining in a bar at a Chicago hotel where she was not allowed to stay. Lena was a sort-of uppity black who did not take crap from anybody. As she was leaving one night to go to her black hotel, she stuck her big black toe in the hotel swimming pool. White patrons saw her do it and complained. The pool was immediately drained. Our white landlord in North Carolina just couldnt find the drain plug for the Atlantic. torhomed for about a dozen winters since of Mississippi and Massachusetts. Associretirement through the South from Florida ate Justice Anthony Kennedy, who was to California and back, traveling on inthe deciding vote in the campaign-cash terstates, scenic highways and bi-ways, Citizens United case (He said unlimited and country roads. Some people say: The corporate money wouldnt make much difference in political campaigns!), seemed South has changed since the Emancipation Proclamation. We say: Not enough. to be trying to find out whether a positive My favorite columnist Molly Ivins relates or negative vote would bring him the most notoriety. Associate Justice Samuel Alito GADFLY: 18 always is on the side of Tea Party Republicans and corporations, so we dont need to worry about where needed for our elderly sisters he stands. One of my favorite poets at St. Anns Care Center is Langston Hughes, a black Maryvale, Valley City. who lived for only two years beyond the 1965 Voting Rights Act. His poem TO APPLY, CALL I, Too reveals his hope SISTER MARLYSS for the future acceptance of blacks: AT 701-845-2864. I, too, sing America. I am the darker brother. They send me to eat in the kitchen when company comes. But I laugh, and eat well, and grow strong. Tomorrow, Ill be at the table when company comes. Nobodyll dare say to me, eat in the kitchen, then. Besides, theyll see how beautiful I am And be ashamed I, too, am America.
lmost sixty years ago, long before the Civil Rights and Voting Rights bills were passed, I was a young Marine Corps lieutenant stationed at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, commanding a heavy machinegun platoon of 48 men, almost a third of them black. Harry Truman had integrated the armed forces in 1948 because of the effectiveness of blacks in the armed forces during World War II. My three top noncoms, a master sergeant and two techs, were black, all decorated and wounded vets of the Korean War. Those old enough will remember Marines and the battles of the Chosin Reservoir, called the most intense small unit warfare in history. Because of them and the other blacks in my platoon, I have a big dog in this legal fight over minority voting rights in the Supreme Court. Corky and I lived in the small town of Jacksonville for a time, then lucked out and rented a house on New Topsail Island before becoming eligible for base housing. So we saw the Jim Crow South from many angles. This was when a black could not try on a pair of shoes or a shirt or jacket in a store to see if they fit. If he tried them on for size, he had to buy them. My decorated master sergeant and his wife and children had to walk in the streets instead of on sidewalks reserved for whites. Private trailer parks were segregated. Blacks had to ride in the back of buses or separate cars on trains.
PERSONAL CARE AIDE
Bricks For Whites, Tarpaper Shacks For Blacks Separate but equal schools turned out to be brick for whites, tarpaper shacks for blacks. Fountains, toilets, entrances and exits were labeled White Only and Black Only. All public accommodations such as hotels, motels, and restaurants were segregated. Our beach on New Topsail Island was restricted, meaning no blacks allowed. We really raised hell with Mr. Jim Crow, Senior and the locals when we threw a beach party for my platoon
I Am The Darker Brother After listening to the inquisition of government lawyers by four conservative members of the Supreme Court, I really wonder what heavenly white planet they commute to and from every court day. Eight out of ten living black men have spent hours, days, or years in jail or prison. The seniletic Associate Justice Antonin Scalia made an ass of himself again by suggesting that voting by minorities had become a racial entitlement. His dark shadow, Associate Justice Clarence Thomas , who used affirmative action and other government programs to gain a law degree, said nothing. He has not asked a question from the bench or even mumbled since 2006. Its just as well. Chief Justice John Roberts said the great Republican state of Mississippi had a better record for blacks voting than the great Democratic state of Massachusetts. That is strictly shyster lawyer talk. As if Massachusetts blacks had been kept from voting for Ted Kennedy all those years! We are in serious trouble when the chief justice cant recognize the differences
Even 46 years after his death, we have still not seen all of his beauty. We have not reached his Tomorrow yet.

a story about Texas football that tells us about racial progress. Sixty-five years after the Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves the University of Texas recruited its first black football player. In a big game the Texas black player was tackled by one of the black players from a Northern team. A University of Texas booster jumped to his feet in the stands and screamed: Goddammit ref, get that nigger off our colored boy! Theres a quick lesson in that comment. Eight years ago Corky and I went to a Civil War private museum in Vicksburg, Mississippi. 150 years ago the city of Jackson, Mississippi had more millionaires than New York City because of cotton and slavery. Many of them had second homes in Vicksburg near the Mississippi River. In this museum there was not a single word, picture, or drawing about blacks. When the war came to Vicksburg many of the rich whites took shelter in caves along the river. There was not a single mention of their taking their black slaves with them to serve them in the caves. I mentioned the total absence of black history to a museum guide. I got a very cold stare. We have seen the dumpsters in the white steel-gated communities with guardhouses and the garbage barrels in the black ghettoes. Changes? Yes. Enough? No. Thousands of whites attended the Saturday lynching of blacks just several decades ago, took pictures of the hanging burnt bodies, and sent them to relatives around the country on postcards. Now the lynchings are done in the dark in private places.
the independent 07.19.13 GADFLY: from 17 is the fact that Obama in 2012 won the
presidency with two percent less white vote than John Kerry got in 2004 when he lost to Dubya. Another indicator is the fact that in 2008 there were 149 active white supremacy groups in 2008. Now there are 1,360. But the greatest indicator of racial prejudice is the number of attempts to pass laws restricting and suppressing voting, particularly in those states and territories covered by the Voting Rights Act. Even in tolerant North Dakota the legislature is coming up with all kinds of ways to keep minorities, and anyone employed daily, away from the ballot box. The White Party is desperately trying to come up with fascinating ways of voter suppression: state and federal voter IDs, reduced early voting, changing precinct boundaries, gerrymandering districts, charging Democrats with thousands of voter fraud cases, and other imaginative KKK ways to inhibit minority voting. Since 2001, 46 states introduced over a 1,000 bills to tighten voting laws, but mainly those in the Old Confederacy have had legislators flooding legislatures with restrictive voting bills. Legislators are trying the old sovereign state (10th Amendment) idea, long overruled by the federal courts. Voter fraud? Between 2000 and 2010 Americans cast 649 million votes in general elections. During that same time we had 47,000 UFO sightings, 441 Americans killed by lightning, and 13 cases of in-person voter impersonation. Indiana passed a stringent voter ID bill but had not had a case of voter impersonation in history! This is a case of sprinting tongues way ahead of thought and brains!
Did you know that president barack obama killed his grandmother? He did it to cover up his birth in kenya! I thought of Scalias statement about racial entitlement when I read the text of a political cartoon in the Forum: Reporter: You have opposed the Violence Against Women Act, the Consumer Protection Agency, the Dream Act, financial aid for students, regulation of the financial industry, Medicaid for the poor, and tax hikes for the rich....Just what are you for? Senator: Im for the average American! Press: Would that average American be a Southern white guy who lives on a golf course? Senator: Well, yes....Whats your point? Its quite evident the conservative members of the Supreme Court also think that whites are entitled to dominate minorities. One of the indicators of the continuing existence of racial prejudice in the U.S.
Obama even redecorated the oval office in middle eastern style! The interplanetary Supreme Court conservatives should travel on earth occasionally to see real discrimination at work. Mother Jones magazine has catalogued some of the Tea Party- Southern Axis conspiracies and facts that have surfaced into mainstream politics since the election of our black-white president: Removed flag from Air Force One wont say Pledge of Allegiance--mom and dad were commies--coming for your guns, gold, IRAs, and you--is the Anti-Christ (read Obamas 2008 nomination speech backwards and he instructs listeners to do Satans bidding)--according to codes hidden in Bible verse he is actually a reptilian humanoid--wears ring with Koranic verses married a Pakistan guy --bringing 100 million Muslims to U.S.--born in Kenya and became member of Black Panthers

Here was the man who refused the Vietnam draft because he said: No Cong ever called me a nigger. Ted wrote: I told Ali...what a great symbol of moral strength I thought he had become... His voice tends to be just a whisper now, and I wasnt sure I heard him correctly so I asked him to repeat it. I heard the same phrase three times: Still just a nigger. When Ali was champion of the world his face was the most famous in the world. Now he is still watching his brothers clean spittoons.

OPINION: ROB PORT
OPINION: OMDAHL
Justifing coaches salaries? 79 percent wasnt enough for North Dakota Senators A
ccording to media reports, University of North Dakota mens basketball coach Brian Jones just signed a contract extension through 2017 that raises his pay from just over $86,000 per year to $100,000 per year. I dont care enough about collegiate sports to tell you whether Jones is a good coach or not, but its troubling that hes now making more than what all but two statewide elected officers made in 2012. For coaching in a sport that is really third-tier at UND, behind hockey and football, Coach Jones now makes more than our Lt. Governor, Secretary of State, Auditor, Treasurer, Tax Commissioner, Public Service Commissioners, Ag Commissioner, and Insurance Commissioner. But, by the measure of pay for college sports coaches, Jones pay is rather modest. Dave Hakstol, the coach of the University of North Dakotas hockey team, has a $300,000/year base salary, thanks to a new six-year extension signed last year, with bonuses potentially adding another $135,000/year. Craig Bohl, head coach of North Dakota State Universitys Bison football team, just signed an eight-year contract extension worth $206,503 with a minimum 5 percent annual raise, 3 percent of gross ticket sales and $42,500/year worth of performance incentives. These two men each make more, in salary and bonuses, than our Governor and Attorney General combined. These are lavish contracts; all the more so when you consider that the sports programs at NDSU and UND arent profitable. By Rob Many people assume that Port the hockey and football programs bring in revenues for the universities, but its not true. According to numbers from the NCAA, even after revenues from things like ticket sales and merchandise are included, both UND and NDSU have to subsidize their programs to the tune of more than four million dollars per year, and hundreds of dollars per student. According to numbers from the NCAA, sports at NDSU gets a per-student subsidy of $427 per year, which represents revenues the sports programs dont produce themselves from tickets, merchandise, etc. At UND its $317 per student. The point being, these salaries arent paying for themselves. These sports programs, as high-profile as they are, dont pay for themselves. It strikes me as an odd set of priorities when elected leaders charged with creating and administering policies for the entire state of North Dakota, who are responsible for governing nearly 700,000 people, makes far less money than a sports coach e had a garage sale at our house a couple of weeks ago and I took the occasion to sell my .22 rifle, a gun I purchased to protect my lettuce from the rabbits and my bird feeder from the squirrels. (Life requires us to make hard choices.) The sale wasnt a protest over gun legislation. The rabbits and squirrels just disappeared from our country place and the gun wasnt needed anymore. Before selling, I called the local police department to check for regulations about selling guns at garage sales. When presented the question, the officer said there were none. The gun was purchased by an honorable looking citizen but I could have ended up unknowingly selling it to a convicted felon. I considered doing my own oral background check on the spot but the purchaser looked okay so I let it go. I think felons want more than a .22 anyway. This all occurred before Gabbie Giffords and husband Mark Kelly made appear-
ances in Fargo and Bismarck in their campaign to get Congress to require background checks on all gun transfers. They came to apply subtle pressure on Senators John Hoeven and By Lloyd Heidi Heitkamp, both of Omdahl whom voted to kill the proposal in the U. S. Senate. While here, Giffords and Kelly reported that polls showed that 79 per cent of North Dakotans favored universal background checks. This raises an interesting question about representative government. It is obvious that neither Hoeven nor Heitkamp were listening to their constituents on the issue. Senator Hoeven was trapped by the pack mentality that dominates the Republican caucus in the Senate. Hoeven is not really an ideologue. Hes a rational pragmatic moderate. If he were not imprisoned by the politics of his caucus, he would have voted for the measure.

The beard is no more, said the text accompanying the picture of my brother and his first muskie of the season. He had been growing it since November 1 of last year, the date of his final big fish for 2012, and vowed he wouldnt trim it until he caught his next muskie. So through deer hunting and ice fishing, the beard grew as a tribute to his true outdoor passion. Leaves fell, lakes froze, snow piled up and melted away giving in to the slow springs return and the hope of another By Nick season filled with toothy critters. Simonson A hope unrealized until the moment he set the hooks of one of the double-bladed in-line spinners I had tied up for him last year into the jaws of a muskie last Wednesday. The forty-five inch fish brought an end to the penance of the muskie beard and materialized the hope into success at the beginning of a new season. Traditions, be they facial hair holdouts for a certain fish or flipping a coin into a bucket for each missed hookset, are a big part of every fishing season. One of my favorite fishing traditions is dollar for the first fish. No matter the number of people on the boat, this good natured bet is a frequent occurrence. The size of the first game fish doesnt matter, but bullheads and carp dont count. Usually, we call the bet when things start somewhat slow, in an attempt to turn the partys luck, but weve been known to issue the challenge the second the trolling motor hits the water. Most of the time, the winnings are simply credited to the account of the angler to bring in the first bass or walleye. No one really keeps track, instead picking up the winners pop at the bait store or putting the proceeds toward the next bucket of minnows on the following outing. Another on-the-water tradition is not mentioning the w-word. Growing up on the gusty plains of North Dakota, and running a 15-foot boat around my favorite flows made me and my fishing buddies subject to the whims of the wind.
Fishin traditions - beards and muskies
OUR OUTDOORS
Shoulda feared the beard - The author's brother, Ben Simonson of Valley City, was set free from his eight-month beard thanks to this 45-inch muskie he caught last week in west central Minnesota.
On a calm day we avoided even saying the word wind, referring to it as The W. As in, it sure is nice that the W is light and variable today. It seemed the moment someone completely uttered the entire word, an otherwise calm and sunny day would be darkened by clouds rolling in on gusts from the north. Foam would curl on the crest of every wave and wed hightail it back to the launch, or at least don another jacket to cut the chill. After a few too many of these incidents, the tradition stuck. Other popular fishing traditions in my boat include double posing for pictures. The first is a normal photo with a fish held near the body. The second is the perspective shot where the angler holds the fish out, changing the apparent size of the fish. The latter makes for great, albeit sometimes

NOW AND THEN
hanks to George Gaukler and the US Historical listings a picture of the building now called the Rudolf Square across the street from The Market Place looks pretty much the same as it did when it opened on Independence Day of 1907. Therefore, I am not including one. The picture in the papers from the 100 year anniversary of Valley City in 1983 shows an identical 3 story building as the one you see now. The only difference is a car parked out front obviously from that era when it opened! The author of the story that went along with that picture is not mentioned but they did a terrific amount of research. So much so that to repeat it all here would be roughly equivalent to reading the beget verses in STORM SEASON: 7 the Old Testament. The basic details HomeAdvisor are providing tips for pre-storm prepara- are as follows: Previous to the growth of the motel tion and post-stormcleanup: business, the Rudolf Hotel was a busy Before storms hit, tend to window cracks and chipped place for the travelers and business glass, check and repair roof shingles, and remove dead people that were flocking to Valley or dying trees.

Other then for two short periods it was owned by its builder until his death at Christmas of 1944, It was sold for a two year period in 1918 By Lowell and again in 1930 for Busching a period of 3 years before being sold back to the original owner. If you dont believe yet that Valley City was a boom town at one time, as opposed to a Doom town, check out the registry in the hotel from back then. Teddy Roosevelt, Wm. Jennings Bryan, J.C. Penny , Billy Sunday, and a couple of apparently significant names I had not heard of, Madame Schumann-Heinck and Anna Case. I am sure there were others if you could find the log books. Now we can not even get Bill Gates to visit Valley City. Rudolf Giselius was not just a business promoter but he was involved in many community projects. The article does not mention the Rex Theater, which was in the north building. A single screen, small theater showing mostly the B movies and cowboy movies. For his part Rudolf helped a number of young men get through college by hiring them and paying for their tuition. A severe fire destroyed the north portion of the hotel in 1928 and I suspect the movie theater was put in that location after that time. Does anyone still around know when the Rex Theater started? I doubt if anything was left of that theater that could be converted today, but the location was certainly central. There was a severe storm at the time, but there were no deaths among the many telephone linemen staying there at the time. KOVC had an antenna on top of the Rudolf at one time and in 1940 a strong storm sent it crashing through the roof and partly into one room of the father of the former owner of the Dakota Drug, Jay Katz. His father fortunately was not in the room at the time! And you think there has never been anything exciting happening in VC!
It is here in the story where the names come fast and furious. If you are interested in those details, Wes Anderson at the County Museum can sell you a very large Centennial Newspaper. still available. Under the original owners the hotel was the meeting place for the Lions, Rotary and Kiwanis Service clubs. as well as many other organizations. The clubs currently meet in the VFW. Among the other occupants of the building was Dr. Hulett with his chiropractic office,, Western Union, Schuberts Paint and Glass store, were the former dining hall was, and it was the home of KOVC for many years. When they moved to another building, probably the one just east of City Hall, attorney John Paulson had his office in the building. Valley Realty took over the building and remodeled as a housing establishment. As George Gaukler said, it cost more to save the external integrity of that building then if he had been allowed to tear it down and build a new building, but we thank George for doing so. It is one of the very few original buildings of Valley City that still looks the same or has not been replaced by more modern buildings. Others that remain are the two former bank building on Main on the ends of the block containing the VFW.. Other buildings on that block are the original ones but have had their appearance altered. Likewise the next block on Main to the east. The large show windows for the Fair Store still remain for the Ye Ole Books store and the laundry/ dry cleaners. The building containing Boomers is also an original that looks pretty much like it did back then. Many of the building in the main shopping area on Central were torn down or remodeled.like the old Pillar theater, now Duttons. The city has largely lost its identity.like many other cities.

ment in ND continues to grow, we will make these differences in price become smaller. I completely agree and we need to make local food affordable for everyone. Local food is not a fad, it is the way humans have feed themselves for millenia and the way we will have to feed ourselves in the future. Local food production, marketing and consumption is much more advanced in other states, but we are working hard here in ND to learn from them and make those needed changes.

I dont know who you tried to work with, but when I buy end-of-the-day produce I ask What do you need for me to take all of this sweet corn home right now? The problem with having a farmers market every day is that a producer has no motivation to make you a deal, they can just bring it back tomorrow and sell it. My specific advice for tomatoes is to talk to a farmer and ask if they do quantity sales and specify that you will take seconds (blemished, small, etc.) and order them in advance. A guaranteed sale is better than speculation any day. And, to be completely honest, farmers markets are a highly inefficient way to market local food. It is a speculation on both the part of the producer and the cus-

what kinds and quantities of food customers are going to buy. And you, as the customer, dont know what will be available or the quantity that you can buy. There are MANY other marketing opportunities that would be more efficient and cost effective for everyone. But we have government officials and regulators at all levels that want to keep farmers markets as the only local food option. Hence, the struggle and frustration on both sides.

This isnt a problem unique to North Dakota though. Recently the website Deadspin published a map show who the highest paid employee on the public payroll in that state is. In all 50 states, the highest paid official on the public payroll was someone working in higher education (a problem worth discussing in and of itself). In 40 out of 50 states, that person was a sports coach. Let me set up a wager and see if you readers would

Senator Heitkamp was trapped by the logic and support of the National Rifle Association. She explained that she was respecting North Dakotas gun tradition. However, that argument loses credibility when a majority of those who own guns favor the background check. As for both senators on this issue, what they are giving us as reasons are really excuses. It is unlikely that the Giffords-Kelly visit will change the minds of enough additional North Dakotans to influence our senators. Neither will it change the ideology of the U. S. Senate or reduce the influence of the NRA. Getting universal background checks on guns in America is challenging because reason has little impact in the debate. The most vociferous gun owners are driven by psychological reasons and opinions based on psychological factors cannot be changed by reason so logic is of no avail. All of this being said, gun ownership may already be too widespread for new legislation to be very worthwhile. Registration of all existing guns would be necessary to make the program effective. But convicted felons, the mentally challenged and gun radicals arent going to come forward for background checks. Because so many guns are already out there, background checks may be closing the barn door after the horse is gone. Even so, gun ownership by dangerous felons has been prevented by the background checks already required of dealers. In the final analysis, universal background checks will not solve the problem but it would catch a few folks who shouldnt have guns. (Excuse me but I think a rabbit just ran into the carrots.)

Undoubtedly, every boat and group of fishing buddies has its own traditions based on past luck, odd coincidences, slow days or just plain fun. This summer, continue those traditions on your favorite flows, or make some up on brand new adventures. The stories, memories and continuations of these ridiculous, superstitious, but somehow always successful actions and rituals are what make up our fishin traditionsin our outdoors.

some reasonable amount of money, lets ask 100 North Dakotans to name their state auditor, a person charged with oversight duties in every aspect of state government, and name the coach of the UND hockey team or the NDSU football team. How many would know the auditors name? How many would know the names of the coaches? My money would be on the coaches. Heres another exercise: Look at the masthead for your local newspaper, and count the number of people tasked with covering sports versus the number of people tasked with covering
government issue. My guess is youll see an imbalance. All of this is a microcosm for what ails our democracy, and thats a scary thing. We esteem men and women who coach athletes who play games more than we esteem men and women who make and oversee the laws we have to live by. The politicians, Im afraid, are just fine with that. The Romans even had a term for it. Panem et circenses. Bread and circuses. Theres nothing wrong with diversion from serious matters, but there is a problem with diversion to the point of distraction. If self-government is to work, the public must be engaged. Were not.
