of April when the forecasters predicted a day above 50 degrees. I also plan my laundry day around the weather. I love to hang my sheets outdoors. So far, the only nice precip-free days have had wind so fierce I could not keep anything on the line. So, I just keep ordering seeds and plantBy Sue B. ing plants with the hope that I will be able Balcom to get out in the garden sooner than later. There are vegetable farmers out there that have plants in high tunnels. If you are not familiar with a high tunnel, it is a large plastic covered frame that keeps the soil and air temperature warm enough to extend the season in this state of unpredictable weather. However, the FedEx delivery truck was just here with more plastic trays for transplants and he says we are going to set another low temperature record this evening. Whats wrong with these pictures? Wow. And, then on Saturday its supposed to be in the 70s. I will believe it when I see it.
n the year 2077, Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) and his partner, Victoria (Andrea Riseborough) remember nothing of their pasts. Their memories were wiped by their colleagues at the command center, called the Tet, after they took a job as a mop-up crew on the now-abandoned surface of Earth. Some survivors of the alien race (called Scavs) who caused the nuclear annihilation of the planet, still pose a threat for Jack as he goes around repairing drones that monitor the desolate land for the hostile aliens. But as is the case with your standard sci-fi movie, there is obviously more to Jacks world than meets the eye. Jacks pesky memories keep surfacing through his subconscious mind, consisting of confusing snippets of interactions with a nameless woman (Olga Kurylenko) he has never met before. One day Jack gears up for a routine drone check, and witnesses a spaceship crash into the Earths surface. The sole survivor: the same woman from his memories, who claims to be his wife. The drones are eager to blow her up, but Jack saves her and sets out on a quest for answers to his world. From there,Oblivionoffers twists at every turn. Oblivionis a stylistic and intrigu-
ing tale of humanitys future. Joseph Kosinskidips his hand into the cookie jar of his directorial debut,Tron Legacy, borrowing a seamless By Kayley juxtaposition of the Erlandson sterile and the natural, weaving a technically superb futuristic atmosphere.Oblivionis more contemplative than it might have you believe; the action set-pieces that are prominent in the trailer are underwhelming in the grand scheme of things. AndOblivionconsiders its scheme to be very grand indeed. There is a lot going on inOblivion: a lot of twists, turns, and characterization. These are not bad things; in fact, I usually complain when theyre absent from a film. In this case, I applaudOblivions aspirations while questioning the execution. At over two hours long,Oblivions scope still feels better suited for a mini-series than a single movie, packing itself to the brim with content, occasionally letting logic and explanations fall to the wayside. The problem of excessive content is apparent from the getgo, with a lengthy voiceover narration in the beginning shouldering the bulk
of expository responsibility, taking several minutes just getting everyone on the same page. Upon reflection of the plot, Im still confused about some important aspects ofOblivionthat Im fairly certain were never answered. A second viewing may reveal that the answers I seek are tucked away in the plot somewhere. In the meantime, the ending left me with more questions than answers, asking viewers to take a big leap of narrative faith with what the filmmakers would like to have me believe is an intentionally vague (i.e. deep, thought-provoking) ending, but may merely serve to hide the fact that the writersdidntknow how to explain the end the movie. As far as dystopian future movies go,Oblivionis good, but not a classic. It borrows too heavily and obviously from other popular sci-fi movies to stand the test of time by itself. Echoes fromPlanet of the Apes,Wall-E,2001: A Space Odyssey, and evenAn Affair to Rememberare all present and accounted for. Its as if someone stuffed all the influential sci-fi movies in a blender and pushed puree. I feel like Im being harder on this movie than I was onOlympus Has Fallen, which was not my

We had high hopes of another nice spring in February when the sand was warm enough to walk around in barefoot. I knew no one would believe me so we took the top photograph to prove it. That sand felt so good on my feet and then the weather went south on us... 0 maybe north. Today as I write this column, I could also write my name in the new fallen snow. It shouldnt last long, the sun is back. In the meantime, the loveliest room in the house is the sun porch with all its tomatoes, peppers, basil and romaine plants moving towards the light. You know you have to put those seedlings in a lot of light when they first emerge. If they are spindly, they need more light. I baby mine and leave the lights on 24/7. At least until they are leafy and about five inches tall. Its also a good idea to pet them because the lack of wind indoors. They need to be used to the wind and by stroking them gently you are strengthening their stems. I also sing to them. And talk to them and love them to life. On Monday, we are getting our own little high tunnel. Im so excited at the thought of growing late into the fall and starting early in the spring with my seedlings. Hmmmm. Theres always the chance that Mother Nature has her own schedule worked out. Heres hoping she extends our season naturally in the fall so we can make up for this less-than-favorable unseasonMOVIE REVIEW: 21 ably cooooool spring we are having.

orth Dakotas new smoke-free law requires that all enclosed public places and places of employment must post smoke-free signs. That includes restaurants, bars, truck stops, guest rooms and common areas within hotels and motels, health care facilities, long-term and assisted living centers, and licensed adult day care facilities. To assist the public and businesses with the transition into the smoke-free law, City-County Health District has educational resources and complimentary signage available for local business. In addition, downloadable signage templates and educational resources are available at www.breathend.com. City-County Health District tobacco prevention coordinator Vicki Voldal Rosenau said that signs are necessary to
inform the public of the smoke-free law and let them know where it is, and is not, acceptable to smoke tobacco. We are happy to work with local business owners to make sure implementation of the new law goes smoothly, said Voldal-Rosenau. By voting in favor of smoke-free air last November, the people of North Dakota chose health, she added. The law removes toxic smoke from public places and its an important step in preventing our young people from starting to use tobacco because it changes social norms of tobacco use, and motivates current users to quit. When kids are not exposed to tobacco use, they are less likely to be tobacco users themselves. The fine for not complying with the law by an owner, manager, or person of
general supervisory responsibility of an establishment is not to exceed $100 for the first violation, not to exceed $200 for a second violation within one year, and not to exceed $500 for each additional violation within one year of the preceding violation. According to the 2012 U.S. Surgeon Generals Report, Preventing Tobacco Use Among Youth and Young Adults, smoke-free policies as part of a comprehensive prevention approach are effective in preventing youth and young adults from starting to smoke. A comprehensive approach should also include tobacco-free school campuses, mass media educational campaigns and tobacco price increases. For more information about the smoke-free law, contact City-County Health District at 845-8518.

ARRMS and the Entrepreneurial Center for Horticulture at Dakota College in Bottineau teamed up for farm food safety training in April at Valley City State University. A second session will be held May 2 at Dakota College in Bottineau. Food safety is a concern for anyone preparing food for sale to the public or in schools or nursing homes. With training, farmers are made aware of potential points of contamination. This is the second year that Keith Knudson, farm business manager, at Dakota College instructed students on Farm Food Safety and writing a farm food safety plan. Information about the new Food Safety Modernization Act and the upcoming changed to food safety were part of the training day. Class materials included templates for writing a plan as well as materials on insurance, risk management, questions
to ask food service directors and farm to school opportunities. Participants began working on their own food safety plan to insure safe handling of produce on their farms. A certificate of completion will be mailed to students who successfully complete a plan for their farm. The certificate of completion can be a useful tool to market to schools, restaurants, nursing homes and even farmers markets. It is one more way to tell customers that you are aware of habits that can contaminate produce on the farm and are working towards making everyones food as safe as possible, Sue FARM Balcom, farm to school coordinator said. A follow-up webinar will be scheduled for a discussion on how to use a certificate of safety to market your produce to schools, grocery stores and restaurants.

he Historical and Cultural Society of Clay Countys Annual Meeting of members and supporters will be held at the Garrick Theater in Hawley, Minn., at 6 p.m. May 2. The keynote speaker will be Jim Bortnem, the owner of the Garrick Theater. He will discuss how he saved the theater from being torn down and what he discovered in the process of remodeling it. The Garrick Theater was built around 1918 and was in operation as a theater for seventy-three years before it was turned into apartments and later abandoned. In 2002, the City of Hawley approached Jim Bortnem with an offer to tell the theater for a dollar if he put a new roof on it. That dollar started the transformation of the dilapidated theater into a vibrant event center. The building is not only the venue but also the program topic about historic preservation for this years Annual Meeting. The Whistle Stop Caf is catering the dinner. The menu includes a choice of chicken cordon bleu, roast beef or a vegetarian dish. To place a reservation and to specify your menu choice, please call the Tim Jorgensen at 218-2995511 ext. 6737. Prepayment of $22 is required to hold your reservation. For more information, call 218-299-5511 or visit www. hcscconline.org.

epression is medical condition that affects people of all genders, races, ages, and income levels. People who are depressed feel more than sadness or the blues. They feel hopeless and suffer deep emotional pain for prolonged periods. Depression can cause dysfunction in every aspect of ones life. Nearly one in five Americans will experience depression sometime in their lifetime, and more than 19 million Americans suffer from a depressive disorder each year.

just finished reading an interesting and thought provoking book called Disrupting Class by Christensen, Horn and Johnson. Its focus is on improving education for all; something we all want. It addresses the reasons for the gap between our worthy desire and the reality of our schools. Instead of trying to focus the blame on anyone, Disrupting Class focuses on asking questions that allow us to think out of the box for solutions. About 10 years ago a bunch of nation educational reformers approached Harvard Business School professor Clay Christensen (of Innovators Dilemma) and asked him to turn his innovation theories on to American education. If youd just stand next to the world of public education and examine it through the lenses of your research on innovation, we bet you could understand more deeply how to improve our schools. Christensen accepted the invitation and the ideas in this book are the results. How can, in some parts of the world, the most horrible teaching yield impressive learning by students while, in other parts of the world, impressive, creative teaching leads to mediocre success? (Think extrinsic / intrinsic motivation).

he North Dakota Game and Fish Department is once again celebrating Earth Day by sponsoring clean-up days on public-owned or managed lands in April and May. Each member of a school, Girl Scout, Boy Scout, 4-H club or youth organization who participates in cleaning up public lands through May will receive a specifically designed conservation patch. Last winter the Game and Fish Department sponsored a contest for students ages 6-18 to design a North Dakota Earth Day Patch. Winners receiving a pair of 8x40 binoculars in the three age categories were Lindsy Dawson of Bismarck (6-9), Lauren Foley of Bismarck (10- 13), and Megan Griffin of Bismarck (14-18). Dawsons design was chosen the contest winner, and will be used on this years Earth Day patch. Groups participating in the Earth Day project are encouraged to take the following precautions to ensure safety: keep young people away from highways, lakes and rivers; and only allow older participants to pick up broken glass. Interested participants are asked to contact Pat Lothspeich at 328-6332 to receive a reporting form for their project.

f anyone knows anything about these buildings, please send your information to editor@indy-bc.com. The Ritche building is a well constructed brick building built in the style you would find in many German towns even today, where they believe in preserving their old buildings and building new ones only when necessary. Like being destroyed in bombings and even then many cities rebuilt using the same plans. Wurzburg, Germany is an example of that.

There are six people crammed under the bridge, he said, so I dont think Ill be able to use this, he concluded, lifting an old fly rod with one of those 1960s reels that looked like a pop can bottom. Ah, come on, Ill show you a spot downstream that I did well at last night, I replied, as I introduced myself to the man, whose name was Don, from the small town just north of the park on the river. Don, in his sixties by my guess, gingerly stepped his way down the bank after explaining that he had recently injured his knee and was set for surgery this summer. That capped off an eighteen-month stretch where he had also suffered a stroke and his wife had been diagnosed with cancer. We try to take our tragedies one at a time, Don laughed, its easier that way. I smiled and sat down in the snow bank along side the small pool and watched Don ready his rod, running the old brown floating line through the guides before tying on a large elk hair stimulator and flipping the coiled filament out into the pool.

Main Street and Fifth (Central) Avenue in the early Thirties: traffic buttons
his view of east Main Street shows, in order, the American National Bank; next to it is Sterns Confectionary (now Allard Trophy), followed by Fritch & Company Jewellers (Nubar), and Marquisee Clothing (including the offices of Dr. Turner, a dentist, and an optometrist). In what is now the VFW Club were the Valley Hotel, Blacks Company, Butternut Baking and a bowling alley/pool hall. Beyond that the signs on the shops are unreadable.
tire-busters. In time, traffic buttons became even more of a hazard as cars were designed with lower road clearance. The buttons were also a nuisance during snow plowing. Traffic buttons were removed from Valley City streets shortly after World War II.

Traffic Buttons
Looking southeast from the intersection of Main Street and Fifth (Central) Avenue. This photograph is on a postcard postmarked August 9, 1934. The card was sent by a traveler passing through town. The post card reads, Dear Mother, arrived at Valley City to nite about 8-15 oclock. Made about 370 miles to day. We are 550 miles from home now. Had our first flat tire just now. Have to eat supper yet. This is a real western town.
What is of special interest in this photograph is the object in the foreground in the middle of the intersection: a traffic button. Traffic buttons were installed at a number of downtown intersections to help regulate traffic, i.e., to indicate to drivers of vehicles that they were to go around the traffic button rather than cutting to the inside of it. (One gathers that driving practices that are standard today were rather less formal in the early days.) Traffic buttons were probably installed when Valley City downtown streets were first paved in about 1925. They were probably yellow in color with red-glass lenses that were lit at night. The buttons were cast-iron, weighed 50-60 pounds, and were high enough to result in a serious jolt if a wheel hit one. They were referred to as

or the first time since its creation in 2004, the Viking Club Tennis team qualified and traveled to the United States Tennis Association National Tournament in Surprise, Ariz., in April. The USTA
National Tournament hosted 64 of the top university club team from around the nation including team such as: Duke, UCLA, Stanford, Harvard, UC Berkeley and four teams for our USTA Northern Section:
U of M, NDSU, SDSU and VCSU. The tournament is formatted to be played across three days and play every team out to the last place, which is 64th. This meant VCSU played seven matches across three day
and finished 63rd overall. The Vikings faced a tough first day including last year's runner-up, University of Virginia, and two other top schools from California and Texas.

Among recent bills, the most memorable moment this session was introducing the Heartbeat Bill
ture. It has been quite an experience to be part of the Legislative process as well as a real learning experience to say the least. There have been exhilarating moments, as well as disappointments. I would have to say to date, the most memorable moment was to bring the Heartbeat Bill, (that would make an abortion illegal if there is a detectable heartbeat, usually five to six
irst I would like to thank everyone in District 24 for the opportunity to represent them in the State Legisla-
weeks of pregnancy), to the floor and have no one in the House or Senate debate it. HRC 3016 to study the development of natural gas will probably be one of the most important accomplishments I made. Other states are already utilizing this plentiful and cheap fuel for their cars. In fact it is $.98/gallon in your tank in Oklahoma City. My study will look at converting the state fleet to compressed natural gas and through eight fueling points across ND would provide public refueling stations that could service 54 percent of our
population. The cost of eight stations would be around $10 million dollars. You would have to have a conversion kit for your car to utilize this cheap fuel, although many cars and By Rep. trucks are being built from Dwight Kiefert the factory equipped to burn compressed natural gas. Currently we are flaring enough natural gas to power every car in North Dakota.
HB1215 that would have allowed the schools in North Dakota to provide a defense plan easily passed the House with 60 yeas and 33 nays. I would have to say my biggest disappointment was the Senates misrepresentation of this bill, which resulted in a defeat. As other states are providing security for their students as close as South Dakota, our state is only looking at $3 million dollars for locks on doors.

An honest politician is one who, when he is bought, will stay bought, said former US Senator Simon Cameron. He knew what he was talking about. Senator Cameron was notorious for his corruption and was forced to resign his appointment as Secretary of War in the Lincoln administration because of rampant malfeasance. Today Senator Cameron is but a footnote in history, but his famous definition By Rob of honesty in the world of Port politics lives on, as do all such succinct expressions of basic truths. Perhaps Camerons words were on former White House Chief of Staff Bill Daleys mind when he complained about Senator Heidi Heitkamps vote on gun control in a letter to the Washington Post. I want my money back, he wrote, alluding to a $2,500 contribution he made to Heitkamps campaign. When I contribute, its because I know the candidate well or am really impressed with the person. Heidi Heitkamp was one of the latter: She struck me as strong-willed, principled and an independent thinker. But this week, Heitkamp betrayed those hopes. Daley doesnt seem to have been alone in his feelings. Senator Heitkamp was roundly criticized by Organizing for Action (the political group formed out of President Obamas re-election campaign) as well as other left-wing interests around the country. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, who directed millions into Heitkamps campaign coffers during the election, would also seem to have reasons to feel betrayed. But you have to wonder if Heitkamps vote was really an act of betrayal, or something she was given permission to do by Senator Reid once it became clear that the Manchin-Toomey gun control bill didnt have the votes. Did Heitkamp stand up to President Obama and her party, or did she stay bought? There doesnt seem to be a clear answer to that question. [Obama administration] officials believed Heitkamp would have flipped

alrymple discloses stock ownership in Exxon Mobile, makes 154 favorable rulings for Exxon Mobiles XTO. As Chair of the North Dakota Industrial Commission, Governor Dalrymple has made 154 rulings in favor of Exxon Mobiles subsidiary XTO. In light of the fact that Governor Dalrym-
ple has officially admitted he owns stock in Exxon Mobile, this is not just a glaring conflict of interest, it is a racket. It is a systematic way of using his influence as governor to intimidate and control the oil industry to his benefit. In a March interview, Dalrymple stated, I have never in my entire career in public service ever had a situation where I felt that I let any kind of personal interest or personal conflict enter into my decision-making whatsoever. This statement has a familiar ring to it. When interviewed by David Frost in 1977, Richard Nixon also let his true colors shine through by saying, Well, when the president does it that means that it is not illegal. The Oil and Gas Division of the three-member North Dakota Industrial Commission led by Dalrymple regulates the drilling and production of oil and gas in North Dakota. For Dalrymple, Exxon Mobil is just one of 16 energy-related stocks listed on his statement of interest on file with the secretary of state. This raises the question: How can anything be more unethical? Yet, Jack Dalrymple is the trustee of the John S. Dalrymple Jr. Trust for which he refuses to disclose the stocks which comprise this trust. He and his wife are also the beneficiaries of the Mary K. Dalrymple Revocable Trust. Again, he refuses to disclose the contents of this trust in spite of North Dakota law which mandates he disclose the actual conflict of interests he may have. How much money is Governor Dalrymple making at the expense of cheating tax payers, mineral rights owners, and competing businesses in North Dakotas oil industry? $10 million a year? $100 million a year? More? We may never know. But we should not allow this governor to continue his reign of deceit and corruption.

he US Senate recently rejected gun background checks, thanks partly to Senators Hoeven and Heitkamp. However, President Obama and Senator Reid will continue attacking the Second Amendment. The media said 90 percent want background checks but some Senators feared losing elections. (Hard to believe gun groups have much power if 90 percent are against them.) Perhaps they realized background checks are a slippery slope to national registry, which could lead to confiscating weapons during national emergencies. (Confiscation happened after Katrinasearch gun confiscation Hurricane Katrina for YouTube, Wikipedia, etc.) Senator Blunt (R-MO) summarized, Once you get these lists out there, once you have a gun dealer keeping lists for lots
of other people, the only way that works... is if you keep the paper. And if you keep the paper, eventually, somebodys going to ask for it. Besides, background checks wouldnt have stopped the Newtown or Aurora shooters since neither had criminal or mental health histories. Those wanting guns for evil wont bother with checks but theyll get guns. Gun controls in communities, states, and countries range from tight to non-existent, so there should be real evidence if strong laws reduce murder rates. I have yet to hear hard evidence that they do. (But some studies give evidence that murder rates are often higher in tight-control areas.) And reducing magazine capacities could mean law-abiding citizens run out of ammunition before their assailants. Keep telling Heitkamp, Hoeven and Cramer to oppose ALL Second Amendment restrictionsand that youll spread the word on their votes.

ent age. The list is long and heart-wrenching. People who have a broader grasp of time than I do, mention other times in which evil has shown itself to a generation. Today violence and tragedy are not new but renewed on a regular basis. The book of Galatians says, Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen (1:3-5) These words remind us that we are not abandoned and that God knows the wickedness and evil of this age. That is the reason that Jesus Christ came and died. So that our sins may be forgiven and that we would be delivered from the present evil age. It is clear that evil is present in this world and the Bible makes clear that Gods grace and mercy is present in this world in Jesus Christ. My prayer for all those reading this would be that Gods grace and mercy would be yours. Pray that God would be with the injured and give strength and comfort to all who mourn. We are confronted by evil at different times in our lives; no one is immune. May each instance of evil in this world cause us to look to the God of mercy who has made a way that we may be delivered from this evil age to the age of peace through Jesus Christ. The Rev. Dennis Norby ministers at Hope Lutheran Church.

The big highlight from the pool play on Thursday was our first ever set win at Nationals by team captain and senior Katie Paulson. VCSU finished 4th out of 4 teams in their pool and was then drawn into the Copper Bracket for Friday and Saturday. Saturday was a much better day for the Vikings, facing off against Washington University, SDSU and St. Mary's. The Vikings lost all three matches but took two of them into overtime play and saw set wins by men's captain Kurt Brown and a mixed doubles wins by Alex Conlon and Katie Paulson. Saturday the Vikings faced off against Oakland University of Michigan in the 63rd / 64th place match. VCSU played their best tennis of the week and pulled out our first ever match win at a national tournament with a score of 24-20. The match saw big wins at both women's and men's doubles by Katie Paulson/Erika Lutjens and Josh Gilbertson/Tanner Beauchman as well as a big win at women's singles by Katie Paulson. The match ultimately came down to the mixed doubles match with Vikings Alex Conlon and Erika Lutjens winning in a tie-breaker 6-5 to secure the victory.

The fractures were reduced at once and his injuries dressed, making the patient as comfortable as possible, but the outcome of such a serious injury cannot be known for a time, as there is always the possibility of infection in cases of fractures where the bone penetrates the skin, known as compound fracture. The doctor reports the young man resting very comfortably today, and as well as could be expected under the circumstances. Sues Comments: I cant help but think of the poor
young man and his family during the amount of time they must have had to wait for the medical aid to arrive! Someone would have had to be sent to town for the doctor, most likely on horseback or with a buggy, and then the doctor would have had to return via the same means! The wait must have seemed unending! Very different than today when a quick phone call is placed and the local emergency medical unit rushes to the scene with modern equipment and access to an ambulance or helicopter, if needed, to rush the patient to the hospital! How fortunate we are!
An enlightened person raises the level of the consciousness of the entire community. Phyllis Theroux, The Journal Keeper: A Memoir

This fits as a careful look at both pictures will show that these are indeed pictures of the same building with what appears in the earlier picture to be a European type bell tower and Balcony removed and that area changed slightly. It also appears to be the same size, i.e. not expanded nor the roof changed. Windows changed in front. Nothing on the picture says were the original school was located but I am sure Wes can supply that information. Was it always where Richie School was across from the City Library? Why the nice bell tower and balcony were removed is anyones guess. I suspect that then, like now, certain citizens thought it was too old country looking and they decided to modernize it like many of our downtown buildings were changed or replaced. It must have been quite a job to move that building at out like flecks of black pepper on a baked walleye fillet. One fish exploded just behind Dons large floating offering, but for the most part, the rises we witnessed were scattered and he struggled to connect with the dry fly. I explained how a bead-head nymph had led to my success earlier and I picked one out of my fly box and handed it to him. As he tied it on, he suggested I take a couple of casts; so I did, and on my third one the line jumped and I set the hook into a 14-inch brown trout. His wife, Bev, had joined us at the small pool down from the main fishing hole and commented on the trouts spots which were jam-packed on each side of the fish, as if its Creator attempted to cram every bit of color onto the canvas. I slipped the trout back into the stream and watched it tail off into the pool. Your turn, I told Don, with a smile. Despite the chill of the white shore underneath me, I laid back and stared up at the sun struggling to melt the snow and ice
attached to the branches of the still leafless trees of this late spring as the hatching midges fluttered in and out of view. The three of us talked about the events of the week before the Boston Marathon bombing on Monday, the Texas plant explosion on Tuesday, a third blizzard in as many weeks on Wednesday, the bombers shootout with police on Thursday, and the capture of one of them on Friday night a lot of stressors and tragedies crammed into a tight timeframe. Still, just one at a time, Don reiterated in a sort of quiet, confident wisdom. After catching a bit of a rest, I said farewell to Don and Bev and wished them both good luck, knowing that their challenges and those of the world in general which lay ahead were greater than just a few fickle fish eating tiny hatching insects. But like targeting the rising fish, they would take them on, one-at-a-time, and theyd be okay along with rest of us, whether in the doctors office, at the dinner table or on the banks of a tiny trout stream... in our outdoors.

Whether youre new to North Dakota or have been hunting deer across this great state for decades, youll realize theres no such thing as just like last year, even if youve pretty much By always opened the season Doug Leier with the same crew at the same time and place. Its a dynamic season, with habitat and weather influencing deer production and hunting conditions. Last year, it was a combination of a lower deer population and an opening weekend snowstorm over much of the state that contributed to a harvest of approximately 34,500 deer and overall hunter success of 63 percent. That success rate was up from about 51 percent in 2011. Randy Kreil, North Dakota Game and Fish Department wildlife chief, said this past seasons hunter success rate of 63 percent clip is fairly good, but still below the long-term average of around 70 percent. In addition, Kreil said the number of days spent hunting, at 4.4 days per hunter, was still higher than usual, which is expected with lower deer populations. Hunter success for antlered white-tailed deer was 76 percent, and antlerless whitetail was 62 percent. Mule deer buck success was 81 percent. No mule deer doe licenses were issued in 2012. Hunters with any-antlered or anyantlerless licenses almost exclusively harvest white-tailed deer. These buck and doe hunters each had a success rate of 64 percent. Game and Fish biologists in late April were wrapping up the process of determining recommendations for licenses in the 2013 deer proclamation. Once that is completed, the proclamation goes to Gov-
ND OUTDOORS: from 24
ernors Dalrymple for approval. With the majority of deer survey work done prior to April and its extended winterlike conditions, its the hope of biologists and hunters the impacts arent too severe. The good news is, in many areas the grassland and woodland habitat could benefit from spring precipitation. The bottom line is your 2013 deer applications should be out by the middle of May. They will be due by June 5. And one final note, while the deer license fee increase (from $20 to $30) recently passed by the legislature will not be in place until 2014, provisions in another bill, HB 1131, included an emergency clause and will be in effect for the 2013 application period. These include: Individuals who turn age 14 in the same year as the respective big game hunting season may apply for a license, and individual who turn age 12 in the same year as the youth deer season may receive an antleress white-tailed deer license for the youth deer season. Previously, young hunters had to turn age 14 or 12 before opening day of those respective seasons. The number of acres required to qualify for a big game gratis licenses was lowered from 160 to 150. Gratis applications received on or before the regular deer gun lottery application deadline will be issued a license for any legal deer, as has been the case for many years. However, gratis applications received after the deadline will be issued licenses based on what is remaining after the first lottery drawing, which very likely will only be doe licenses. Previously, gratis applicants could receive an any deer license at any time after the first lottery, as long as licenses were available anywhere in the state.

Israel.The Bible says that we should not put leftovers on the table a third time. Heres the chapter and verses: Leviticus 19:6-7.When it came to eating the peace offering, Moses wrote that it was okay to eat the leftovers the first and second days but if it is eaten on the third day, it is an offense Some Christians would argue that they are no longer under the laws of Moses but under grace so it wouldnt be a mortal sin to eat leftovers on the third day. It may not be a sin but it could still be mortal.
