Wall Street soars
Government plans reassure distraught investors
NEW YORK (AP) — Wall Street
stormed back after its worst week
ever and staged the biggest single-day
stock rally since the Great Depression
on Monday, catapulting the Dow Jones
industrials to a 936-point gain and
finally offering relief from eight consecutive days of stock market carnage.
While no one was saying the worst
was over for the staggering financial
system or troubled economy, buyers
returned to the stock market with
gusto, with some saying stocks had
been driven down to fire-sale prices.
The surge came as executives from
leading banks were summoned by the
Bush administration to Washington to
work out a plan to get loans, the
lifeblood of the economy, moving
again. And it followed signals that
European governments would put
nearly $2 trillion on the line to protect
their own banks.

The Dow gained more than 11 perTrader Joe Acquafredda smiles as he works on the floor of the New cent, its biggest one-day rally since
York Stock Exchange on Monday. Wall Street stormed back from last 1933, and by points it shattered the
week’s devastating losses, sending the Dow Jones industrials soaring a previous record for a one-day gain of
499, during during the waning days of
nearly inconceivable 936 points.

“My screen is completely green,
and I love that,” said John Lynch, chief
market analyst for Evergreen Investments in Charlotte, N.C. “But I’m not
doing any backflips yet. We still have
many challenges up ahead.”
Stocks opened sharply higher and
never looked back. The Dow was up
more than 400 points in the opening
minutes of trading, and by lunch hour
had crossed back through the same
9,000 level it crashed below last week.
The rally intensified in the final
hour of trading. In the moments
before the closing bell rang, boisterous traders sounded horns on the
floor of the New York Stock
Exchange, and raucous applause
broke out.
“I would say this is closer to the
bottom. I can’t say this is the bottom,”
said Bill Schultz, chief investment
officer at McQueen, Ball & Associates
in Bethlehem, Pa. “I think it’s more
relief, the rally today.”
For Wall Street, it came not a
moment too soon. The dismal week
before wiped out about $2.4 trillion in
shareholder wealth. The eight-day losing streak drained 2,400 points from
the Dow, or 22 percent — roughly
equal to the 1987 crash and enough to
establish a bear market all on its own.
U.S. stock market paper gains
totaled $1.2 trillion Monday, according
to the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Composite Index, which represents nearly
all stocks traded in America.
The massive rebound also pushed
the Nasdaq composite index higher by
195 points, or nearly 12 percent, its
second-biggest gain in percentage
terms. The Standard and Poor’s 500,
rose 104 points, its biggest point gain
ever and an 11.5 percent gain, its
greatest since 1933.
About 3,030 stocks advanced on the
New York Stock Exchange, while only
about 160 declined — a reversal from
last week, when declining stocks
overwhelmed the gainers. But the
trading volume of 1.82 billion shares
was lighter than it had been last week,

men have been identified as the
salesmen who have allegedly
been making Dickinson residents uncomfortable.
Authorities had been looking
for salesman driving a blue or
tan van after several people in
the city reported the men as
behaving strangely and being
“pushy.” Wallace said the men
were going door to door asking
residents if they wanted to participate in a dish soap survey
and also attempting to sell
Kirby vacuums.
Lt. Dave Wallace said the
men were found at about 10
p.m. on Friday when their van
was pulled over on Villard
Street in Dickinson for having a
broken taillight.
Although authorities originally believed there may have
been two separate groups, Wallace said it was just one group
of salesmen.
“It’s the same guys, they just
have two different vehicles,”
Wallace said.
He said five of the individuals
were from Colorado and one
was Wyoming. The van had

The

Police
Department reported Dickinson’s Hillside Baptist Church
on 10th Street West has been
burglarized.
According to the police report,
there did not appear to be signs
of forced entry and there was no
damage done to the church, but
$100 cash was taken.
Church Secretary Stacy Norris reported the incident on
Sunday, but it is unclear when
the burglary actually occurred.
Authorities said it is possible
that the incident is related to
similar burglaries that occurred
last week at St. John’s Luther-
an Church and St. Joseph’s
Catholic Church in Dickinson.
Cash was taken from both
churches.
The police department
received several other reports
regarding thefts and break-ins
over the weekend.
According to the police
report, a 40-inch flat screen TV
and an Xbox 360 were stolen
from Tyler Glick’s residence on
Sixth Avenue Southwest in
Dickinson.
The items, which were
reportedly taken between 4

Democrat charges state Treasurer Kelly Schmidt
with mismanaging Veterans’ Postwar Trust Fund
By Janell Cole
N.D. Capitol Bureau
BISMARCK — Incumbent state Treasurer Kelly Schmidt is endangering the
Veterans’ Postwar Trust Fund by putting
its funds in risky investments, her opponent said Monday.
“This fund is bleeding out and it needs
to be stopped right now,” said Democrat
Mitch Vance of Bismarck, who is seeking
to unseat Schmidt, the Republican seeking her second term.
He said the losses amount to at least
$200,000.
“This is not just paper losses. This will

translate into loss of benefits,” Vance
said.
Schmidt countered that her investment
choices are sound, pointing to the fact
that the fund has lost less than most
investments in this year’s stock market
downturn.
The fund is used for hardship grants to
North Dakota veterans for glasses, hearing aids, dentures and rides to the Veterans Administration hospital in Fargo.
Vance took his allegations to news conferences in Fargo and Bismarck on Monday and continues with another in Minot

He said that after Schmidt took office in
January 2005, she took $2 million out of
Treasury Inflation Protected Securities,
commonly referred to as TIPS, which
provide a hedge against inflation plus a
modest return, and put them into marketable securities and bonds through a
retail brokerage, Edward Jones.
Vance said the proper manager of the
fund is not a retail broker but the state
Retirement and Investment Office, which
would not be charges fees as high as
Edward Jones and would not expose the
fund to risk.

Snowstorm strikes western N.D.
BISMARCK (AP) — Residents of Beach were not seeing
a beach when they looked out
their windows Monday. They
were seeing snowmen.
The National Weather Service said the southwestern
North Dakota town of about
1,200 people had 11 inches of
snow after a storm that hit Saturday night and Sunday morning.
“It kind of just falls off the
roofs and hits the ground,” said
Ivy Schantz, a receptionist at
the Beach Co-op Grain Co.
“It looks just like January out
there,” she said. “We woke up
(Sunday) and there it was.”
Josh Hammond, an agronomist at the company, took his
little boy out to enjoy the snow.
he said the moisture is welcome, but too much wind could
hurt safflowers and sunflowers
still standing, making it hard to
combine them.
“It depends on how fast the
snow melts,” he said. “This is
perfect for the winter wheat
that got seeded.”
Williston got 7 inches of snow,
knocking out power to some
parts of the city when the wet
snow caused tree branches to
break and damage power lines.
Montana-Dakota Utilities
spokesman Mark Hanson said
the company started getting
calls about power outages at
about 6 a.m. Sunday.
He said most of the customers had their power back by

Ag commissioner seeks to provide
crop insurance for buckwheat
BISMARCK (AP) — Agriculture Commissioner Roger Johnson wants the federal government to provide crop insurance
for buckwheat.
Johnson wrote a letter to the Agriculture Department’s Risk
Management Agency. He says plans to offer buckwheat insurance have been delayed by federal budget restrictions, but he’s
urging the government to find a way.
Johnson says rising production costs will lead farmers to
switch to crops that are insured, and that will hurt the buckwheat industry.
He says North Dakota is the leading buckwheat-producing
state with about 40,000 acres.

rain shut down operations.
“We are sitting now on a lot
of flooded fields that need to

Vance said 72 percent of the fund’s total
assets are in the marketable securities.
He said that, had funds remained in
TIPS, it would still be making money, He
said that the fund, which was worth nearly
$4.6 million in December 2004, is now
worth $4.3 million. TIPS worth nearly
$4.6 million in December 2004 are now
worth $5.2 million.
Schmidt said that currently, bonds and
marketable securities at Edward Jones are
worth about $3.18 million; the money market account, also at Edward Jones, is
$175,800; CDs at various North Dakota
banks are worth $1.07 million and a money
market account at the Bank of North
Dakota has $38,800, for a total of slightly
less than $4.5 million.
Vance said state auditors scolded
Schmidt this year for not complying with
“the prudent investor rule” in state law,
citing working papers state auditors generated during a regular audit of the treasurer’s office for 2005-07 biennium. The
documents spell out the losses incurred,
the higher fees at Edward Jones and say
Schmidt “is willing to accept up to a 20
percent loss in one year. Our interpretation of the prudent investment rule in
(state law) does not include investing in
securities that could lose 20 percent in one
year. It appears the (state treasurer) has
taken on more risk than a prudent investor
would be willing to take.”
Schmidt said she was given no such
warning. That is probably true, said the
auditor in charge of the audit.
The statement in the working papers did
not make it into the actual audit report,
said Paul Welk, manager of the state audit
section of the state Auditor’s Office,
because there was not enough time
elapsed to reach conclusions. Instead, it
was made note for follow-up in future
audits, he said.

The project would double the size of the present museum. It
includes a 60-seat theater, a cafe, children’s galleries and a
special display about American Indian history on the northern
Plains. Last year, the North Dakota Legislature set aside $1.5
million for design work on the proposed 97,000-square-footaddition.
Fire damages sugar factory in Billings
BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) — A fire at the Western Sugar factory in Billings caused about $35,000 in damage.
Firefighters were called to Western Sugar at about 10 p.m.
Sunday after workers found a fire inside one of the factory’s
pulp dryers. Fire Marshal Bill Tatum says machinery sustained
moderate damage from fire and smoke.
A Western Sugar employee was taken to Billings Clinic for
treatment of minor smoke inhalation. His condition was
unknown. Tatum says the cause of the fire remains under
investigation.

University leaders say research corridor
has huge impact on North Dakota economy
By Tracy Frank
The Forum
FARGO — University leaders say the Red River Valley
Research Corridor is having an
incredible impact on North
Dakota’s economy.
And Sen. Byron Dorgan, DN.D., wants to double that
impact.
Dorgan announced Monday
that his goal is for the research
corridor initiative to create
10,000 additional jobs by 2015
from high-tech research and
development that will attract
new industries and build new
jobs.
A North Dakota State University study stated that
between 2002 and 2006, 10,600
jobs paying an average of
$56,000 a year were created
because of the research corridor.
The study also showed that
the research corridor has had a
$759 million economic impact
in the region.
“This is only a foundation
and it is a foundation on which
we are going to build very significant things,” Dorgan said.
During the Red River Valley
Research Corridor conference
“Milestones and Horizons” in
Fargo on Monday, NDSU and
University of North Dakota
leaders discussed how the
research corridor helps their
universities.
“It’s allowed us to do things
that we simply would not have
been able to do if we had to
depend on traditional sources,”
said NDSU President Joseph
Chapman.
The corridor has created
enthusiasm in the faculty, staff

and students, and has fostered
international partnerships with
a profound impact on NDSU,
Chapman said.
UND President Robert Kelley said the research corridor
has also led to strong growth in
science and technology at UND.
The conference, co-hosted
by Dorgan and the research
corridor, drew more than 400
people.
Dean Kamen, founder and
president of DEKA Research
and Development Corp., was
one of the conference speakers. He holds more than 440
patents, including for the first
wearable insulin pump for diabetics and for the Segway twowheeled transportation device.
Kamen talked about his inventions and current projects,
including a device to bring
water to the poorest countries
and a prosthetic arm that can be
manipulated like a real arm.
“Technology’s a really cool
thing, if you use it wisely,” he
said.
Another speaker was J. Craig
Venter, one of two scientists
who led the Human Genome
Project, and founder and president of the J. Craig Venter
Institute, a not-for-profit
research and support organization.
He discussed human, microbial, plant and environmental
genomic research, and alternative energy solutions through
genomics.
“Biology is pretty amazing
and I think we’re just discovering some of the earliest components of what can be done,”
Venter said.
Craig Mundie, Microsoft’s
top visionary, also spoke.

Prosecutor reflects on Duncan case
IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (AP) —
U.S. Attorney Tom Moss has
prosecuted some of Idaho’s most
high-profile murders, and he’s
put three people on death row.
But his most recent murder
case — against convicted child
killer Joseph Duncan III — was
the worst, he told the Post
Register.
“What Duncan did was so
horrific, it’s just something you
can’t ignore,” Moss said. “The
thing about the Duncan case
that made it worse ... it
involved children. It involved
multiple murders. It involved
extensive planning and premeditation. It involved a person who was out to kidnap,
abuse and kill children. And he
is a person who is fairly intelligent. And something about all
that just makes it very vile and
very violent.”
The case began in 2005,
when the bodies of 13-year-old
Slade Groene, his mother,
Brenda Groene, and her fiance,
Mark McKenzie, were discovered in a Coeur d’Alene home.
The two youngest children in
the home — then-8-year-old
Shasta Groene and her 9-yearold brother, Dylan Groene —
were missing.
Duncan,
a
convicted
pedophile originally from Tacoma, Wash., had slain the family
so he could kidnap the two children. He took them to a remote
Montana campsite where he tortured and abused them for
weeks, videotaping some of the
abuse. He shot Dylan Groene to
death at the campsite, and a few
days later took Shasta back to
Coeur d’Alene. The girl was rescued after a waitress recognized
her while the two were at a local
restaurant and called police.
Duncan, who had moved to
Fargo, was convicted in state
court of the murders at the
Coeur d’Alene house, but the
federal court handled the
charges related to the kidnapping, abuse and Dylan’s murder.
Duncan pleaded guilty to the
federal charges, but Moss still
had to prove to a jury that he
deserved the death sentence.
After a harrowing two-week
hearing earlier this summer, the
jury agreed that Duncan should
be executed.
Duncan’s intelligence makes
him “especially evil,” Moss said.
“He was a very evil person, a
very wicked person,” Moss
said. “And he fit that category,
in my opinion. He preyed on
children. He preyed on
defenseless people.”
The case was so graphic that
jurors were offered counseling
afterward, but Moss said he
simply focused on the job he
had to do. Police officers,
pathologists and others who
saw the evidence firsthand at
the scene had a much tougher
job in that respect than prosecutors, Moss said.
“You have a job to do and
that’s it,” he said. “I don’t want
to sound overly heroic because
there are people out there
whose exposure is much worse
than mine.”
While still a Bingham County
prosecutor, Moss prosecuted
Randall Lynn McKinney, who
was convicted and sentenced
to die for the 1983 shooting
death of 25-year-old Robert
Bishop Jr., of Pocatello. Another case he handled resulted in
the death penalty for Paul Ezra
Rhoades, who in 1987 raped
and murdered Idaho Falls
teacher Susan Michelbacher.
Western states woo unemployed
workers from Michigan
WALKER, Mich. (AP) — A shortage of workers in North
Dakota and a surplus of unemployed Michigan residents
brought recruiters to suburban Grand Rapids for a well-attended job fair.
Tracy Finneman of the North Dakota Department of Commerce was surprised by Saturday’s turnout at the Mega
Employment Expo. She says job fairs in North Dakota don’t
draw nearly as many people, since most of them already have
work. North Dakota’s seasonally unadjusted unemployment
rate in August was 3.3 percent, and officials there project a
shortage of 16,000 workers in the next two years. Michigan’s
seasonally adjusted jobless rate that month was 8.9 percent,
worst in the nation.
Finneman tells The Grand Rapids Press she hopes the
prospect of work in North Dakota brings hope to Michigan residents who are unemployed or concerned about losing their
jobs.

off the everyday loans that
businesses use to buy supplies and pay their workers.
Monday was the Columbus
Day holiday, and the U.S. bond
markets and banks were
closed, making it difficult to
gauge the reaction of the
credit markets to the measures taken by world governments.
The Bank of England said it
would use up to $63 billion to
help the three largest British
banks strengthen their balance sheets. The Bank of
England, the European Central Bank and the Swiss
National Bank also jointly
announced plans to work
together to provide as much
short-term money as necessary to help revive lending.
The heads of the five
biggest U.S. banks — Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley,
Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase
and Bank of America — were
meeting at the Treasury
Department with officials
from Treasury and the Federal Reserve. The discussions
are aimed at finalizing details
on the rescue package Congress passed Oct. 3.
That package started with
the idea that the government
would buy the bad mortgagerelated debt off the books of
banks. It now includes provisions for the government to
buy ownership stakes in
banks, among other steps.
It is coming together against
the backdrop of a presidential
election that has focused
squarely on the economy.
Sens. Barack Obama and John
McCain are to meet for a final
debate Wednesday night on
Long Island, with the state of

during last week’s selling.
At the close, the Dow stood
at 9,387.61. That’s still a far
cry from its peak of 14,165,
set a little more than a year
ago — and history suggests
Wall Street could have a long
climb back to the top of the
mountain.
After the Black Monday
crash of October 1987, it took
the Dow until August 1989 to
set a new all-time closing high,
almost two years after its previous peak. The 1987 crash
took stocks down 36 percent
from their pick — comparable
to the 40 percent decline in
this round of turmoil.
The Bush administration
said it was moving quickly to
implement its financial rescue
package, including consulting
with law firms about the
mechanics of buying ownership shares in a broad number
of banks to help get lending
going again.
Neel Kashkari, the assistant
Treasury secretary in charge
of the program, said Monday
officials were also developing
guidelines to govern the purchase of soured mortgagerelated assets. He gave few
details about how the program
will actually buy bad assets
and bank stock.
And Wall Street still has a
lot to worry about, including a
housing market that is still
groping for a low point in
prices and shoppers who are
spooked by job losses and
other ominous economic
signs and are cutting back on
their spending.
“I think we had enough negatives last week that if the
government steps in we could
have a pretty nice run,” said
Denis Amato, chief investment officer at Ancora Advisors. “Is it off to the races?
No, I don’t think so. We have

Therapy helps patients get kidney transplants
WASHINGTON (AP) —
Nearly one in three patients
who need a kidney transplant
may never get one because their
bodies are abnormally primed to
attack a donated organ.
Now doctors are trying new
ways to outwit the immune
system and save more of those
so-called “highly sensitized”
patients — often with kidneys
donated by living donors, considered the optimal kind.
“I feel very lucky. Our son
saved my life,” said Cynthia
Preloh of Arlington, Va., after
an unusual combination of
blood cleansing and a cancer
drug allowed her to receive a
kidney from her son that her
body otherwise would have
destroyed. It’s promising work
that comes as the nation’s kidney distribution system is
beginning a major overhaul.
Together, the two efforts aim to
make a long-needed dent in the
years of waiting it can take to
get a kidney transplant.
That’s crucial, because “your
chance of getting successfully
transplanted decreases with
time,” says Dr. Keith Melancon
of Georgetown University
Hospital, Preloh’s surgeon and
a leader in the small but grow-
ing field of incompatible kidney
transplants. More than 77,000
people are on the national waiting list to receive a kidney from
a deceased donor. Yet fewer
than 17,000 transplants a year
are performed, about 10,500 of
them from deceased donors
and just over 6,000 from living
donors, relatives or friends
who offer to help a specific
patient. The wait can stretch
four to five years, and more
than 4,000 patients die on the
waiting list each year.
The United Network for
Organ Sharing is considering
some big changes to the sys-
tem. There’s no formal proposal yet, but there are options
under discussion.
Wait times might be defined
by kidney function deterioration rather than how early
someone gets on the transplant
list, to level the field for
patients who don’t see a specialist right away.
In addition to wait time,
matches may weigh recipient
and kidney age and medical
conditions to maximize what’s
“life years from transplant.”
One kidney might last longer
in an older person without diabetes than in a younger diabetic.

Firefighters extinguish a burning storage yard that ignited from a wind-drive brush fire in Los Angeles on Monday.
Wildfires force
frantic evacuations
LOS ANGELES (AP) —
Two huge wildfires driven by
strong Santa Ana winds
burned into neighborhoods
near Los Angeles on Monday,
forcing frantic evacuations on
smoke- and traffic-choked
highways, destroying homes
and causing at least two
deaths.
More than 1,000 firefighters and nine water-dropping
aircraft battled the 5,300-acre
Marek Fire at the northeast
end of the San Fernando Valley, and the 3,000-acre Sesnon
Fire in the Porter Ranch area
at the west end. Winds blew
up to 45 mph with gusts
reaching 70 mph.
Authorities confirmed more
than three-dozen mobile
homes burned at the Marek
Fire and TV news helicopter
crews counted about 10
homes destroyed by the Sesnon Fire. Both fires also consumed commercial sites.
Firefighters were struggling with the resurgent, dayold Marek Fire when the new
blaze erupted at midmorning
a few miles to the west.
“It is a blowtorch we can’t
get in front of,” said Los
Angeles County fire Inspector
Frank Garrido.
Fire officials alerted communities as far south as Malibu, 20 miles away, as an ominous dark plume streamed
over rows of homes. Fire officials could not immediately
estimate how many homes
were in the path of the Sesnon Fire.
Residents were not allowed
to drive into one of Porter
Ranch’s gated communities
because officials wanted to
keep roads clear for emergency vehicles. Instead they
parked their cars, ran to their
homes and carried out whatever they could carry in pillow cases, in their arms,
sacks and suitcases. Some ran
out clutching paintings.
Los Angeles County Fire
Chief P. Michael Freeman
warned people not to stay
home after evacuation orders
had been given, as the flames
were moving so rapidly.
“You may not be able to
even outrun this fire,” Freeman said.
Los Angeles County Fire
Department Inspector Frank
Garrido said one person was
killed in a head-on collision
around midday when police
closed the 118 Freeway
because of flames. TV news
helicopters showed vehicles
turning around and driving
against traffic to use an onramp as an exit.
Earlier, a fatality was discovered at the Marek Fire, an
area where neighborhoods
abut rugged canyonlands
below the mountainous Angeles National forest. The man
appeared to have been a transient living in a makeshift
shelter, officials said.
About 1,200 people evacuated due to the Marek Fire,
which was just 5 percent contained.
“We could have had an
army there and it would not
have stopped it,” Los Angeles
Fire Department Battalion
Chief Mario Rueda said.
“Wind is king here, it’s dictating everything we are doing.”
Mobile home park resident
Glenn Bell said he and another park resident broke a padlock on an emergency exit
gate to escape at daybreak. “If
we hadn’t broke open that
gate, there would be people
dead up there,” he said.
Olive View-UCLA Medical
Center moved five of its most
fragile patients to other hospitals. Spokeswoman Carla
Nino said the four newborns
and the fifth patient were on
ventilators and were the most
difficult to transport. Some
other patients were discharged but the hospital
decided it was not necessary
to evacuate about 180 others.
The dry and warm Santa
Ana winds typically blow
between October and February.
As they whistle through
Southern California canyons
and valleys, they accelerate,
drying out vegetation and
hastening the spread of any
fires that erupt.
“This is what we feared the
most,” Los Angeles County
fire Capt. Mark Savage said.
“The winds that were expected — they have arrived.”

Microsoft executive promotes
technology for rural business
By Dave Kolpack
Associated Press
FARGO — The chief
research and strategy officer of
Microsoft Corp. sat in a conference room of the company’s
Fargo campus and talked about
technology that could help
business in rural states.
But Craig Mundie couldn’t
call, text or e-mail anyone with
his own phone.
“I’m sitting here with my cell
phone and it doesn’t work
here,” Mundie said Monday,
after speaking to a group of
employees. “This has a Bluetooth radio, a WiFi radio and
GSM radio, and I can’t use it.”
Mundie has spent 15 years
leading Microsoft’s campaign
to improve wireless broadband
capacity in the United States
and around the world. For the
last several years, he’s been
working with government regulators on the possibility of
using the unused spectrum
between television channels to
deliver broadband access.
The so-called “white spaces
proposition” could help rural
states like North Dakota,
where companies don’t find it
economical to build cell towers
because of the small population.
“To me, the power of this
white spaces is that if you want
to build a community alternative, where you could at least
have the equivalent of a cell
phone walkie-talkie capability
just to make local calls in
Fargo, that would probably
make a lot of people happy,”
Mundie said. “It at least creates an alternative.”
Once the broadband problem
is solved, Mundie expects people in rural areas to demand
technology that will allow
remote working capability.
That means communication

Charges dropped against two men
accused of rape in Cass County
FARGO (AP) — Cass County prosecutors have dropped
charges against two men accused of raping a Fargo woman in
January.
Emmanuel Addai (AW’-day) and Kofi Avortri each were
charged with one felony count of gross sexual imposition.
Avorti’s trial was scheduled to start on Tuesday and Addai’s
trial had been set for Oct. 21.
The men told police they had sex with the woman, but
denied the rape charges.
Minot police arrest men found in home
MINOT (AP) — Minot police say a woman found two
strange men in her apartment about 5 a.m. She told authorities
one was taking a bath and the other was asleep in her couch.
Sgt. Winston Black says the men, ages 24 and 21, were
arrested on criminal trespass charges. He says authorities
don’t know why they were in the woman’s apartment.
Black says officers also found one of the men was wanted in
Fargo for failure to pay fines and failure to appear in court. He
says one of the men has a Minot address and the other is from
Fort Totten.

systems will have to be linked,
he said.
“Today, in a simple sense, the
closest form of a telepresence
you have is your phone, or
maybe a little Web cam, if
you’re lucky. None of these are
very natural,” Mundie said. “In
your office, you have a computer and you have a phone, and
they’re not integrated.
“My belief is that the cost of
these technologies can be driven down and novel ways of programming them from a software usage point of view will
allow them to become more
integrated,” he said.
Mundie was in North Dakota
to speak at a technology conference and visit the Fargo divi-
sion, which handles software
for businesses and other operations, including customer support, payroll and information
technology. He cited his relationship with Doug Burgum,
the former head of Microsoft’s
Fargo operation, and Sen.
Byron Dorgan, D-N.D.
“I think the two of them conspired to decide to ask me to
come and talk (at the conference),” Mundie said. “And I
wanted to visit the Microsoft
Fargo campus, so it was sort of
a ‘twofer’ at that point.”
Mundie joined Microsoft in
1992 to create and run the
company’s consumer platforms
division and eventually became
a chief technical officer. He was
promoted to his current post
after Bill Gates announced he
was giving up day-to-day duties
of running the company.
Mundie, who reports directly
to CEO Steve Ballmer, currently oversees technology and
research projects and works
with government and business
leaders around the world on
technology policy and regulation.
“It’s startling how often
somebody would come up to
me or Bill Gates and say, ‘Well,
this software thing, I guess
we’ve kind of seen it all,”‘
Mundie said. “It’s just hilarious
because we’re just at the tip of
the beginning of this thing. We
haven’t seen it all.”
Stenehjem, Hamm escape injury when
vehicle strikes large deer at Anamoose
By Janell Cole
N.D. Capitol Bureau
BISMARCK — Attorney General
Wayne Stenehjem and Insurance Commissioner Adam Hamm escaped injury Sunday afternoon when Stenehjem’s SUV
struck a large deer near Anamoose, Stenehjem said.
Stenehjem’s Cadillac Escalade has about
$5,000 in damage to its left front corner.
The buck ran off into a field and probably
died, he said.
The attorney general said he and Hamm
were on their way to a District 7 Republican rally in Rugby when the accident happened about 3:30 p.m. Sunday on a paved
road about five miles north of Anamoose
and south of state Highway 19.
Stenehjem said a large buck — “I’m
thinking 12-point buck, at least”—
emerged at a run from a corn field on the
right side of the highway, ran parallel to his
SUV for a short distance and then suddenly turned left and ran across ditch and onto
the pavement in front of the vehicle.
Stenehjem said that though he braked as
soon as he saw the deer, he still struck its
left hindquarters. The deer ran into another cornfield on the left side of the road,
“and, I’m sure, expired.”
If the collision would have been a second
or so sooner, he would have “had a lap full
of deer.”
The accident knocked out the Cadillac’s
left headlight, but it was still drivable.
Stenehjem said Monday that he and
Hamm turned around and headed back to
Bismarck and canceled their appearance in
Rugby. He said he didn’t want to be driving
home after dark with only one headlight.
There was no cell phone service where
the accident happened, he said. Hamm
tried using his Blackberry and Stenehjem
tried using his laptop with a cell phone
modem, but without luck. Stenehjem said
they eventually connected with the
McHenry County sheriff’s office about the
time they were nearing Wing.
When a recording at the sheriff’s office
advised callers to contact State Radio, he
arranged with its dispatchers to meet with
a Highway Patrol trooper when they
arrived back in the capital city about 5 p.m.

WATFORD CITY (AP) — Officials of Theodore Roosevelt
National Park say 667 acres were burned in the park’s north
unit late last week, under the watchful eye of firefighters.
The prescribed burn happened Thursday at the unit’s northwest corner. McKenzie County residents could see white
smoke in the distance.
The prescribed burns are expected to continue in the park
through the end of the month.
Fire management officer Rod Skalsky says the burns help
the park diversify its plants, and that leads to more diversity in
animals and insects.
Park officials say the fires are carefully planned and they
keep in close contact with the National Weather Service to
check on any changes in temperatures or wind speed.
Fargo house party involves children
FARGO (AP) — Authorities in Cass County say children as
young as 12 were drinking hard liquor and energy drinks at a
house party in Harwood and that a 12-year-old boy was taken
to a hospital for observation.
Law officers say eight juveniles are being referred for consuming alcohol at the Friday party. They said the partygoers
were between 12 years old and 16 years old.
A parent who arrived to pick up her daughter reported the
party.
Authorities say no charges are expected against the homeowner, the uncle of one of the youngsters, who was away at the
time.
Man pulled from floodwaters arrested
FARGO (AP) — According to Cass County authorities, a
Fargo man was arrested for drunken driving after being rescued from floodwaters Sunday night.
Chief Deputy Jim Thoreson says 37-year-old Matthew Flaig
apparently lost control of his car and ended up in a water-filled
ditch about two miles north of the airport.
According to Thoreson, a passerby saw Flaig’s vehicle in
about 4 feet of water and called for help. Thoreson says the
deputy who responded helped Flaig from the vehicle and
placed him under arrest. He was released on bond later.
Killing frost needed for late crops
FARGO (AP) — The Agriculture Department says North
Dakota farmers need a killing frost to help with the dry down
of corn, soybeans and sunflowers.
The sunflower harvest began last week, while the flaxseed
harvest neared completion. The soybean harvest was 37 percent done, which was behind last year and the average.
Ranchers were weaning calves, hauling hay and cutting
silage last week. Pasture and range conditions were rated 50
percent very poor to poor.
Topsoil moisture supplies were rated 67 percent adequate to
surplus, compared to 58 percent on average.

Mine facility to have negative impact
Having grown up on a farm between
South Heart and Belfield, it troubles
me that a majority of residents don’t
realize the severe health and environmental impacts that are going to be
associated with the proposed
GPND/GTL mine/processing facility
near South Heart.
In 1956, several corporations started mining multiple uranium-rich lignite coal mines and ashing facilities in
Southwest North Dakota, including an
ashing facility located 1-mile southeast of Belfield. At a Belfield Chamber
of Commerce meeting in April 1963,
Dr. R.C. Vickers, representing GeoResouces Exploration overviewed the
plans of the ashing facility and emphasized the potential these facilities
could have on the economy in the
Belfield area. During this meeting,
members of the public and the chamber expressed concerns about potential environmental and human health
impacts this ashing facility could have,
but were reassured that the facility
posed “minimal” risk to human health
and that when finished the site would
be remediated. However, nothing was
written down on paper; thus, these
companies left the state, leaving area
residents to deal with the radioactive-contaminated material left
behind.
In 1979, the Belfield site was designated for cleanup and stabilization
in which the state of North Dakota
and the Department of Energy
entered into an agreement to remediate with the State only responsible
for 1 percent of the total cost. Unfortunately, in March 1995 the state
requested that the Belfield site be
removed from remedial designation
due to limited State funding and a low
“perceived” public and environmental risk. Consequently, after 42 years
of radioactive contamination in our
backyards, no remediation has taken
place and the contamination remains.
Thus, the recent actions by the
Stark County Commission and Zon-
ing Board, leaving all the environmental regulatory components of the
proposed GNPD/GTL facility near
South Heart up to the North Dakota
Department of Health and Public
Service Commission, may be misguided if the history of these agencies (on these uranium facilities) is
taken into consideration. Therefore,
residents surrounding the proposed
facility have every right to demand to
know what is going to happen and
how agencies will respond when
things go awry. When representatives of GNPD/GTL and the Stark
County Commission/Zoning Board
use words such as minimal, negligible, inconsequentia, and insignificant
when talking about potential environmental and human health impacts, it
raises our ire.

North Dakota may hold answers to oil issues
Last January Rep. Shirley Meyer,
D-36, and I announced the formation
of an Oil Refinery Task force to look at
increasing refining capacity in North
Dakota and we were greeted with
intense scrutiny.
We formed this task force because we
believed it was so important to be able to
find solutions to untimely fuel shortages
and some of the highest fuel prices in the
nation, all happening right here in a state
where we are sitting on top of the largest
contiguous oil fiend in the lower 48
states! We decided that the questions
were too important to leave unanswered.
Let’s add value to North Dakota oil.
Why ship our unrefined oil somewhere else when we could potentially
hold the solution right here in North
Dakota? We create new jobs and secondary businesses for the by-product
such as fertilizer plants, tire and plas-
tic manufacturing plants.
The discussion we held is critically
important to North Dakota’s energy
future. Building a refinery is more than
possible. Our suspicions were correct. It
won’t be necessary for the state to own
the refinery, rather; assist in the citing
and permitting of such a facility. The
investors are eager to start investing in
North Dakota!
The developers with the three affiliated tribes and Northwest Oil Refinery
are right on track and may soon be a
reality. Task Force attention has helped
them solidify assistance from other state
agencies and move these projects forward. And, the best news is that these
refineries are being planned using new
technologies that will build clean, green
facilities.
North Dakota has critical issues of
stranded oil. Capacity limitations are
having a negative affect on our state and
its royalty owners. Sen. Dorgan’s congressional hearing in Bismarck to discuss stranded oil was extremely timely
and highlighted the need to find additional solutions for pipeline capacity and
refining capabilities.
The work of the Oil Task Force has
been very thorough. We held many
meetings all across the state and
received input and testimony from
dozens of industry, state and community
leaders on these issues. Through our
efforts we have been able to create an
important discussion across the state
about North Dakota’s energy future.
Our work is not done. Together, we can
create a new and exciting future for
North Dakota.
We are a stalwart and stouthearted people, and never more so than
in hard times. People weep in the
dark and arise in the morning and
go to work. The waves crash on
your nest egg and a chunk is swept
away and you put your salami sandwich in the brown bag and get on
the bus. In Philly, a woman earns
$10.30/hour to care for a man
brought down by cystic fibrosis. She
bathes and dresses him in the
morning, brings him meals, puts
him to bed at night. It’s hard work
lifting him and she has suffered a
painful hernia that, because she
can’t afford health insurance, she
can’t get fixed, but she still goes to
work because he’d be helpless
without her. There are a lot of people like her. I know because I’m
related to some of them.
Low dishonesty and craven cynicism sometimes win the day but not
inevitably. The attempt to link
Barack Obama to an old radical in his
neighborhood has desperation and
deceit written all over it. Meanwhile,
stunning acts of heroism stand out,
such as the fidelity of military
lawyers assigned to defend
detainees at Guantanamo Bay —
uniformed officers faithful to their
lawyerly duty to offer a vigorous
defense even though it means exposing the injustice of military justice
that is rigged for conviction and the
mendacity of a commander in chief
who commits war crimes. If your law
school is looking for a name for its
new library, instead of selling the
honor to a fat cat alumnus, you
should consider the names of Lt.
Cmdr. Charles Swift, Lt. Col. Mark
Bridges, Col. Steven David, Lt. Col.
Sharon Shaffer, Lt. Cmdr. Philip Sundel and Maj. Michael Mori.
It was dishonest, cynical men
who put forward a clueless young
woman for national office, hoping to
juice up the ticket, hoping she could
skate through two months of chaperoned campaigning, but the truth
emerges: The lady is talking freely
about matters she has never
thought about. The American people have an ear for B.S. They can
tell when someone’s mouth is moving and the clutch is not engaged.
When she said, ‘One thing that
Americans do at this time, also,
though, is let’s commit ourselves
just every day, American people,
Joe Six-Pack, hockey moms across
the nation, I think we need to band
together and say never again.

adore
her
because they
are pranksters at heart and love the
consternation of grown-ups. The
ne’er-do-well son of the old Republican family as president, the idea
that you increase government revenue by cutting taxes, the idea that
you cut social services and thereby
drive the needy into the middle
class, the idea that you overthrow a
dictator with a show of force and
achieve democracy at no cost to
yourself — one stink bomb after
another, and now Governor Palin.
She is a chatty sportscaster who
lacks the guile to conceal her vacuity, and she was Mr. McCain’s first
major decision as nominee. This
troubles independent voters, and
now she is a major drag on his candidacy. She will get a nice book deal
from Regnery and a new career
making personal appearances for
forty grand a pop, and she’ll become
a trivia question, ‘What politician
claimed foreign-policy expertise
based on being able to see Russia
from her house?’ And the rest of us
will have to pull ourselves out of
the
swamp
of
Republican
economics.
Your broker kept saying, ‘Stay
with the portfolio, don’t jump ship,’
and you felt a strong urge to dump
the stocks and get into the money
market where at least you’re not
going to lose your shirt, but you
didn’t do it and didn’t do it, and now
you’re holding a big bag of brown
bananas. Me, too. But at least I
know enough not to believe desperate people who are talking trash.
Anybody who got whacked last
week and still thinks McCain-Palin
is going to lead us out of the swamp
and not into a war with Iran is
beyond persuasion in the English
language. They’ll need to lose their
homes and be out on the street in a
cold hard rain before they connect
the dots.

Mathern will improve lives, develop resources
My interest in politics began as a 7year-old watching the Kennedy Nixon
debates on a black and white television with my grandmother, in a farmhouse without running water. I come
from humble beginnings.
My grandmother was tickled to discover that we both preferred the same
candidate. Over the years she and my
grandfather took delight in my political
enthusiasm. They displayed President
Kennedy’s portrait in their home long
after the man himself was gone. The
party was for the working people and
farmers like us and the Republican
Party was the rich man’s party. That
premise has certainly rung true for me
throughout my life as I reflected on
local and national politics.
This week I met Tim Mathern, the
democratic candidate for governor of
North Dakota at a fundraiser in my neighborhood. As I listened to him speak about
his dreams for North Dakotans I was
reminded of my own grandparents’
dreams, trials and tribulations.

He expounded on his plans for
health care, starting with the children
who are currently not covered, and
including rural hospitals and community care for the elderly. He cited how
under our current administration
North Dakota’s vast wind energy
potential has not yet been tapped to
the extent that Minnesota’s has with
far less potential. As governor he will
not only increase the wind energy
tapped in North Dakota but will also
make sure that the majority of the
profits stay here. I was so moved by
him I thought that if more North
Dakotans could hear his message their
choice for governor would be clear.
As governor of North Dakota, Tim
Mathern will work to improve our
lives and to develop our resources. He
has committed the past 22 years to us
as a public servant, let him lead us into
the future at the helm of the state.

Manic Monday: Dow roars back from worst week ever
NEW YORK (AP) — Wall Street
stormed back after its worst week ever
and staged the biggest single-day stock
rally since the Great Depression on
Monday, catapulting the Dow Jones
industrials to a 936-point gain and finally
offering relief from eight consecutive
days of stock market carnage.
While no one was saying the worst
was over for the staggering financial system or troubled economy, buyers
returned to the stock market with gusto,
with some saying stocks had been driven down to fire-sale prices.
The surge came as executives from
leading banks were summoned by the
Bush administration to Washington to
work out a plan to get loans, the lifeblood
of the economy, moving again. And it followed signals that European governments would put nearly $2 trillion on the
line to protect their own banks.
The Dow gained more than 11 per-

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Monday:
cent, its biggest one-day rally since
1933, and by points it shattered the
previous record for a one-day gain of
499, during during the waning days
of the technology boom in 2000.
Stocks opened sharply higher and
never looked back. The Dow was up
more than 400 points in the opening
minutes of trading, and by lunch hour
had crossed back through the same
9,000 level it crashed below last week.
The rally intensified in the final hour
of trading. In the moments before the
closing bell rang, boisterous traders
sounded horns on the floor of the New
York Stock Exchange, and raucous
applause broke out.
For Wall Street, it came not a moment
too soon. The dismal week before wiped
out about $2.4 trillion in shareholder
wealth. The eight-day losing streak
drained 2,400 points from the Dow, or 22
percent — roughly equal to the 1987
crash and enough to establish a bear
market all on its own.
U.S. stock market paper gains totaled
$1.2 trillion Monday, according to the
Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Composite
Index, which represents nearly all
stocks traded in America.
The massive rebound also pushed
the Nasdaq composite index higher by
195 points, or nearly 12 percent, its
second-biggest gain in percentage
terms. The Standard and Poor’s 500,
rose 104 points, its biggest point gain
ever and an 11.5 percent gain, its
greatest since 1933.
About 3,030 stocks advanced on the
New York Stock Exchange, while only
about 160 declined — a reversal from
last week, when declining stocks overwhelmed the gainers. But the trading
volume of 1.82 billion shares was lighter
than it had been last week, suggesting
there was less conviction in the buying
than during last week’s selling.
At the close, the Dow stood at
9,387.61. That’s still a far cry from its
peak of 14,165, set a little more than a
year ago — and history suggests Wall
Street could have a long climb back to
the top of the mountain.
And Wall Street still has a lot to worry
about, including a housing market that is
still groping for a low point in prices and
shoppers who are spooked by job losses
and other ominous economic signs and
are cutting back on their spending.
It was also too soon to say for sure
whether lending was finally loosening
up. The sell-off on Wall Street last week
was driven by fear that mistrustful
banks were choking off the everyday
loans that businesses use to buy supplies and pay their workers.
The heads of the five biggest U.S.
banks — Goldman Sachs, Morgan
Stanley, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase
and Bank of America — were meeting
at the Treasury Department with officials from Treasury and the Federal
Reserve. The discussions are aimed
at finalizing details on the rescue
package Congress passed Oct. 3.
That package started with the idea
that the government would buy the bad
mortgage-related debt off the books of
banks. It now includes provisions for the
government to buy ownership stakes in
banks, among other steps.
It is coming together against the
backdrop of a presidential election
that has focused squarely on the economy. Sens. Barack Obama and John
McCain are to meet for a final debate
Wednesday night on Long Island, with
the state of the nation’s finances sure
to be at the top of the list.
Consolidated volume on the New
York Stock Exchange hit 7.1 billion
shares, down from 11.2 billion during
Friday’s session but still very heavy.

could be quite
impressive
and actually lead to a new job
or career opportunity.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
— Even if you feel that your
thinking is far better than that
of your contemporaries, don’t
push your beliefs on them. Be
prepared to accept their ideas,
or you could come off as being
a know-it-all.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) — Just because you might
recognize certain inadequacies
in yourself, don’t point out the
flaws in others, even if you’re
right. They won’t take kindly
to your trying to correct them.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) — Should you run
into someone whose strong
opinions diametrically oppose
yours, don’t take it personally.
Although you will handle the
clash well, fruitless combat is a
waste of time.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) — When you run into
a congested roadblock, unless
you’re willing to scout out
routes less cluttered, you will
make life much harder on yourself than it need be.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
19) — It is OK to be a bit
assertive, but don’t let any
aggressiveness spill over into
social situations. Friendship
can only survive with giveand-take.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) — If you plan to make purchases that will spruce up
your home, be careful that you
don’t go overboard just
because the bargains are few
and far between. Wait until
another day.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) — In reality, some of your
first thoughts will be your best
ones, yet you might not trust
your judgment simply because
they could be based more upon
feelings than logic. Don’t discount sentiment.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) — Be careful when it
comes to household repairs.
Getting a friend to do these
jobs might prove to be an
expensive mistake, especially
if you can’t point out what you
don’t like.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20) — Although you might be
adept at managing your personal affairs, don’t attempt to tell
others how they should run
their lives. It won’t go over too
well, even if you mean well.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) — A number of things
might turn out to be a bit more
difficult than usual to achieve,
owing to a lot of small problems going against you. However, don’t use this as a cop-out
to throw in the towel.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) —
Even if someone close to you
does something you don’t
approve, don’t make a big thing
of it. All that will do is create a
chasm between the two of you
that won’t be easily rectified.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)
— Running around with high
rollers might give you delusions of grandeur, but the price
you pay may be more than
you’re prepared to handle. Trying to match their spending
would be folly.

Philip Alder on Bridge
It goes redouble, penalty double
Tuesday,
Oct. 14, 2008
Journalist
and humorist
Kin Hubbard
said,
“The
safe way to
double your
money is to
Philip
fold it over
Alder
once and put it
in your pockBridge
et.”
Columnist
You
can
increase the
number of bills folded in your
pocket by playing bridge for
money and knowing when to
double your opponents for
penalty.
Partner opens one of a suit,
the next player makes a takeout double, and you redouble.
What does your call mean?
First, you promise at least
10 high-card points. Next, you
have fewer than four cards in
partner’s suit if he bid a major,
and probably not four if he
opened in a minor. And if you
are short in partner’s suit, you
should have “penalty” firmly
in mind. After this redouble,
either the opening side wins
the auction or the opponents
play in a contract doubled for
penalty.
In today’s deal, South makes
a textbook takeout double, but
gets killed. After West redoubles, North has nowhere to go,
and neither does South. One
spade redoubled would make
three (plus 920) or four (plus
1,120). One no-trump doubled
would probably go down four,
minus 800. With careful
defense, declarer gets only the
spade king and his two aces.
Two diamonds doubled is no
better. West leads the spade
queen. East wins with his ace
and returns the eight, the lowest card being a suit-preference signal for clubs. West
ruffs and shifts to a club, East
winning cheaply and leading
the spade nine. South does
best to pitch a club loser, but if
East shifts to a red suit, the
contract would still go down
four, minus 800.

Dickinson’s
Rapp earns
NASCAR
internship
By John Nadel
Associated Press
By Amy Dalrymple
The Forum
FARGO — A recent graduate of the North
Dakota State College of Science is
NASCAR-bound.
Dickinson’s Tyler Rapp is one of two automotive trade students in the country selected for a weeklong internship that will let
him work alongside a pit crew for a
NASCAR Nationwide Series race.
Rapp, who graduated
from the Wahpeton college
this year, will travel to the
Chip Ganassi Racing facility with Felix Sabates in
North Carolina on Oct. 26.
While there, he will help
prepare the No. 40 Fastenal Dodge racing car for
the
team’s
Nov.
1
NASCAR
Nationwide
Series race at Texas Motor
Rapp
Speedway.
Rapp will then travel to Texas and join the
crew in the pits during the race.
The No. 40 car’s scheduled driver is international racing legend Juan Pablo Montoya.
Rapp, 22, wants to work in the racing
industry and said he’s excited to learn from
some of the best racing mechanics in the
world.
“It’s a once-in-a-lifetime thing,” Rapp
said.
Fastenal Co., which sponsors the internship, selected Rapp based on his academic
record and personal essay.
Paul Mosey, associate professor of automotive technology at NDSCS, said Rapp is a
hard-working and dedicated student who
sought out this internship opportunity on
his own. It’s the first time an NDSCS student has been selected for the internship,
Mosey said.
“This falls right into what his goals and
ambitions are,” Mosey said.
The internship program also will fly
Mosey to the race, where he’ll have pit row
seats.
Rapp works as a Chrysler technician in
Dickinson.
In January, he will begin the motorsports
vehicle technology program at Lanier Technical College in Georgia.

Browns roll
Giants for
needed win
By Tom Withers
Associated Press
CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Browns
may have flipped around their season.
Led by tumbling wide receiver Braylon
Edwards, who announced his team’s return
to Monday night after five years by sticking
an Olympic-caliber cartwheel and back flip
during pregame introductions, Cleveland
ended New York’s 11-game road winning
streak with a 35-14 win over the defending
Super Bowl champions.

and
returned it 94 yards for a touchdown and the
Browns (2-3) finally looked worthy of a
prime-time TV slot.
Anderson finished 18-for-29 for 310 yards,
Edwards caught five passes for a careerhigh 154 yards and Jamal Lewis scored on a
4-yard run for the Browns, who won a Monday night game for the first time since 1993
and handed the Giants (4-1) their first loss,
leaving the Tennessee Titans as the NFL’s
only unbeaten team.
Manning was picked off three times and
the Giants, so dominant through their first
four games, were roughed up by a Cleveland
team running out of time to make good on
lofty preseason expectations.
In the closing minutes, Browns fans
chanted “Over-rated” at the New Yorkers.
Aside from some more silly penalties, the
Browns were superior to the Giants, who

Knights of Columbus Activities Center. The Titans travel to face Hazen at 7 tonight in a pivotal District 14 match at Bison Sports Arena.
Major match
LOS ANGELES — The Philadelphia
Phillies used their favorite staple, the long
ball, to move within one win of the World
Series.
Shane Victorino and much-traveled pinchhitter Matt Stairs hit two-run homers off two
of Los Angeles’ most reliable relievers in
the eighth inning Monday night, lifting the
Phillies to a 7-5 victory over the Dodgers
and a 3-1 lead in the NL championship
series.
It was the first time the visiting team has
won a game in 12 meetings between the
teams this year.

series opener, can pitch

season series — two in
the NLCS.
With a runner at first and one out in the
eighth, Victorino lined Cory Wade’s first
pitch into the right-field bullpen to tie the
game at 5. Then, after a two-out single by
Carlos Ruiz, Dodgers manager Joe Torre
called upon closer Jonathan Broxton, the
seventh Los Angeles pitcher.
Broxton tried to throw a 3-1 fastball past
Stairs, and the 40-year-old left-handed hitter
drove it halfway up the the right-field pavilion to put the Phillies ahead.
Broxton, the seventh Los Angeles pitcher,
allowed only two homers in 69 innings during the regular season.
The Phillies picked up Stairs from Toronto
on Aug. 30.

Trinity and Hazen face off to determine District 14’s top seed
By Dustin Monke
dmonke@thedickinsonpress.com
Dickinson Trinity knows it
isn’t going to see the same
Hazen volleyball team it played
on the first day of the season.
“A lot has changed,” Trinity
senior Breanna Messer said.
Both teams have established
themselves as two of the state’s
best since the Titans won a twogame match 25-17, 26-24 in
Hazen’s Coal Country Tournament on Aug. 30.
With the postseason rapidly
approaching, there’s a lot and
the line and little room for error
when the District 14 rivals face
off at 7 tonight at the Bison
Sports Arena.
The winner walks away with
the top seed in the district tournament while the loser is relegated to the third seed.
“It is a big game,” Trinity
coach Melini Grosulak said.
“The girls are going to be fired
up going into the game. Both
teams are going to be playing
hard. It’s going to come right
down to the wire.”
Tiebreaker rules come into
Titans at Bison
Dickinson Trinity visits Hazen for
a match at 7 p.m. today. The
winner earns the top seed in the
upcoming District 14 tournament.
effect tonight if Trinity is victorious. Hazen is 4-0 in the district while Trinity is 3-1 with its
only loss coming at home to
Beulah in a five-game match.
Tiebreaker rules state that if
Trinity wins, it wins the regularseason district title because it
earned game wins over Beulah.
Hazen swept Beulah 3-0.
The fact that they have to win
in order to clinch the district —
which also gives them a prized
bye in the first round of the
tournament — is a motivating
factor for the Titans.
“We have to come in with a lot
of focus and we just have to
come into it with the mindset
that it’s going to be a battle to
the end,” Trinity senior setter
Sheyenne Plummer said.
Hazen coach Kim Wolf knows
her team has to be ready for a
long game, but said she has a
feeling the Bison (29-4 overall)
are up to the challenge.
“Getting up for the Trinity
match is never a problem,”
Hazen coach Kim Wolf said.
“The rivalry that’s developed
between the two teams, the
respect, now it’s just channeling
it appropriately.”
Wolf said she feels the Titans
and Bison have proved throughout the season they should be
considered two of the top teams
in Class B.
Because there are no state
media rankings for North Dakota high school volleyball, coaches gauge teams by their finishes
at weekend tournaments.
Trinity took second place and
Hazen third at the difficult Des
Lacs-Burlington Laker Invitational last weekend.
Still, just because the Titans
finished better at a tournament
doesn’t mean they are better —
and Trinity knows it too.
“We can’t come out too confident,” Messer said. “We know
they’re a good team. We need to
play intense, stay intense and
keep building.”

Tampa Bay cleared the Green
Monster four times to beat
Boston and take a 2-1 lead in
the AL championship series.
BOSTON — B.J. Upton, Evan
Longoria and the rest of the
Tampa Bay Rays have quickly
become a playoff monster.
Upton hit a three-run home
run and Longoria also homered
off a suddenly shaky Jon
Lester, then Rocco Baldelli and
Carlos Pena cleared the Green

the Rays a 9-1 victory over the

By Dave Goldberg
Associated Press
The Washington Redskins and their
fans have discovered the futility of looking at a schedule and projecting into the
future. As in, “We have three easy games
coming up and will be 7-1.”
Yes, that was the mood in the capital
city before the Skins stumbled Sunday.
“The headlines got good. We were saying ‘Yeah, we’re here.’ We’ve got three
games we can win,” Clinton Portis said
after the Redskins lost the first of those
three, at home to winless St. Louis. “And
we overlooked a team today that came in
here ready to play.”
This weekend offered what the NFL
loves: The “on any given Sunday” theme
first enunciated by Pete Rozelle.
Not only did the Rams win, but Houston got its first victory over a Miami team
that already had shocked the league by
doubling its 2007 win total with victories
over New England and San Diego, the
AFC’s two finalists last season.
And Detroit, as futile as St. Louis over
the first quarter of the season, barely lost
12-10 in Minnesota; the Vikings benefited from a somewhat dubious 42-yard
interference call to kick the winning field
goal.
In fact, it was a strange enough day that
even the seemingly impregnable NFC
East took two hits, the Redskins loss and
Dallas’ overtime defeat in Arizona. Given
that Tony Romo broke a finger in OT, it
might have been better if Nick Folk had
missed the 52-yard field goal that tied the
game at the buzzer — at least the Cowboys would have gone home healthy.
And the Lions’ loss was marked by one
of the strangest plays ever, the safety
taken by Detroit QB Dan Orlovsky.
With the ball at his 1-yard-line,
Orlovsky took a snap, rolled to his right
over the back line of the end zone and
continued to look downfield as if everything was fine.
“When they started blowing the whistle, I was like, ‘Did we false start?’ Were
they offsides? And then I looked and was
just like, ‘You’re an idiot.’ “
Still, the most startling result was in
Washington, where the Redskins and
their fans were on a high following consecutive road wins in Dallas and Philadelphia, the final victories in a four-game
winning streak. In fact, the conventional
wisdom was that even their openingnight loss to the Super Bowl champion
Giants was an aberration because they
were still adjusting to a new offensive
system.
With the Rams next, followed by
Cleveland and a game at Detroit, fans
were getting ready to book tickets to
Tampa, where the Super Bowl will be
played Feb. 1.
Browns / from Page 9
had reeled off 11 straight wins — 12
counting the Super Bowl — outside
of New Jersey since Week 1 last
season. But Manning was not himself and New York, which embarrassed Cleveland during the exhibition season, missed an opportunity
to open a two-game lead in the brutal NFC East.
Edwards’ 11-yard TD reception on
the first play of the fourth quarter
gave the Browns a 27-14 lead, and
he punctuated it with a reverse dunk
over the goal post. The score capped
an 87-yard drive which was bogged
down by five Cleveland penalties.
The Giants then drove to the
Cleveland 9, but on second-and-4,
Manning locked onto wide receiver
Amani Toomer, allowing Wright
time to dart in front, make the interception and tiptoe down the sideline
to the end zone. It was a satisfying
turn for Wright, who was burned
twice by the Giants during the Aug.
18 matchup between the teams.
While Browns fans danced in the
aisles, Anderson hit Edwards for
the 2-point conversion to put the
Browns ahead by 21.
Cleveland had its best game this
season despite playing without Pro
Bowl tight end Kellen Winslow, who
was hospitalized last week with an
undisclosed illness.
Manning went 18-of-28 for 196
yards and threw a 22-yard TD pass
to Plaxico Burress, who was back
after serving a one-game suspension for violating team rules.
Moments after New York went up
7-3 on Brandon Jacobs’ 7-yard run,
Edwards turned cornerback Aaron
Ross around with a nice outside fake
and hauled in a 70-yard pass from
Anderson to set up Cleveland’s first
TD, a 4-yard run by Lewis.
On the Browns’ next possession,
Anderson put together his bestlooking drive of the season. Given
time to throw, he made all the correct reads and went 5-for-5 for 74
yards, threading a 22-yard TD pass
over the middle to backup tight end
Darnell Dinkins to give Cleveland a
17-7 halftime lead.
Manning countered with an 80yard scoring drive — helped by a
critical Cleveland penalty — to pull
the Giants within 17-14. From the 3,
he lofted a perfect 3-yard TD pass
to Burress, who easily ran past
defensive back Terry Cousin. Three
plays earlier, Manning had been
sacked and fumbled on third down,
but Browns safety Mike Adams was
called for illegal contact, giving New
York a first down.
Browns defensive end Corey
Williams had provided the Giants
with some bulletin-board material
leading into the game. Williams,
who was with Green Bay last season and lost to New York in the
NFC title game, had said Cleveland’s defense planned to “hit him
(Jacobs) in the mouth” and that
“their ain’t nothing physical” about
the Giants’ offensive line.
Williams also said he was going to
try to knock Jacobs’ head off,
remarks that were prominently displayed on the back pages of New

Sports in Brief
Hafner to have
shoulder surgery
CLEVELAND (AP) —
Indians designated hitter
Travis Hafner will undergo
arthroscopic surgery Tuesday on the strained right
shoulder that kept him on
the disabled list for more
than three months.
Noted orthopedic specialist Dr. James Andrews examined Hafner in Birmingham,
Ala., on Monday and will perform the surgery. Hafter is a
native of Sykeston.
Andrews will clean out the
shoulder and investigate
why it’s causing pain, Indians head trainer Lonnie
Soloff said. Soloff didn’t indicate how long Hafner will be
out and said he would know
more Tuesday about what
the procedure will involve.
There were no tests or
images that indicated the
shoulder needed to be
repaired or reconstructed,
Soloff said.
Hafner returned from the
disabled list in September, but
was restricted from playing
more than two days in a row.
An exam at the end of the season indicated his shoulder
strength declined from 75
percent to 70 percent.
“We want Travis to be unrestricted with regards to baseball activities in spring training and the beginning of the
season next year,” Soloff said.
At the time Hafner went on
the DL in May, he was batting
just .217 with four homers.
Tests showed the left-handed
power hitter had lost nearly all
the strength in his shoulder.
Hafner,
nicknamed
“Pronk,” hit .197 with five
homers and 24 RBIs in 57
games for the Indians last
season. He entered the 2008
season with a .290 career
average and averaged 32
homers and 108 RBIs in the
previous four seasons.

North Dakota State’s D.J. McNorton, right, tackles Western Illinois’ Tim Jackson during on
Saturday at the Fargodome.
Looking for answers
NDSU searches for ways to fix crumbling season
By Jeff Kolpack
The Forum
FARGO — North Dakota
State will be looking to right its
football ship on Saturday at
Northern Iowa. It’s a boat that
is bruised and battered and taking on water.
It is a boat that at one time
was an aircraft carrier ranked
No. 1 in the Division I Football
Championship
Subdivision
coaches poll, but is perhaps one
game from sinking out of the
playoff race. At 3-3, with three
of the losses coming in their
last four games, the Bison cannot realistically lose another
game and expect a post-season
phone call at the end of
November.
It is a boat that lost a couple
more sailors last Saturday in a
27-22 loss to Western Illinois
and the recipients are familiar.
Middle linebacker Tyler Henry
and strong safety Cyrus Lemon
may both be lost for the second
time this season.
Henry sprained his ankle and
currently is in a walking cast.
He’s already missed two games
this year with a knee injury and
his spot will be taken by true
freshman Preston Evans, who
will get his first career start.
Sophomore Matt Anderson,
who started in place of Henry
at Wyoming and Youngstown
State, is sidelined with a
pinched nerve.
Lemon has a shoulder injury,
which comes on top of missing
playing time this season with a
hip pointer.
The situation looks even
more ominous on the offensive
line. Starting left guard James
Septak is battling a knee
sprain. More alarming is left
tackle, where starter Gerry
Ebel and top backup Michael
Arndt are questionable at best
for the Panthers.
Ebel has some type of back
injury and Arndt also sprained
his ankle. Head coach Craig
Bohl said Monday he wasn’t
sure who would start in their
place if one or both can’t make
the trip.
Bohl also didn’t close the
door on making personnel
changes. He said the coaching
staff discussed the possibility
“at length” on Sunday.
“When you lose, you have
more of a tendency to take a
critical eye,” Bohl said. “I think
when you have that type of performance you have to look at
what you’re teaching, how the
players are performing and if
we need to either change some
of the models of what we’re
teaching or change the players.
So we’re going to take a critical
eye at that over the course of
this week.
“I think it’s always dangerous to make wholesale
changes. When you have urban
renewal, typically those things
tend to backfire but for us to
just look at schematically and
players that we’re putting out
there and what we’re teaching
them, I think that needs to be
adjusted for us to produce a little bit better.”
When asked if there are any
particular positions up for
grabs, Bohl said the first area of
concern is the health of the
current starters.
“It’s not so much the productivity,” he said. “We’re looking
at some of the guys who are
just trying to stay healthy. …
We need to improve here. What
things can we do either
schematically or putting players in different positions or different players in the game.”
Losses aside, the Bison are
still very much in the postseason hunt on paper. They fell to
16 in the coaches poll, which
has some influence on at-large
selections to the 16-team playoff field. Moreover, NDSU is
just one game out of the league
lead at 1-2 with five games yet
to play.
But that is not part of the discussions with the Bison these
days.
“You’re looking at a football
team that has to get better this
week to have an opportunity to
win,” Bohl said.

Edwards upset about last week
Driver says he wouldn’t mind reliving the bad seven-day span
By Jenna Fryer
Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — If
Carl Edwards fails to win the
Sprint Cup title this year, he’ll
likely always blame a six-day
tailspin of trading paint, insults
and shoves.
It culminated Saturday night
when his 33rd-place finish at
Lowe’s Motor Speedway
dropped him from second to
fourth in the standings, a distant 168 points behind leader
Jimmie Johnson with five races
to go.
“I can guarantee you that if I
had the week to do over again,
the last seven days would be a
lot different,” Edwards said.
It all started with a 12-car
wreck at Talladega that opened
up Edwards to severe criticism
from rival Kevin Harvick.
Upset with Harvick’s attack,
Edwards left him a sarcastic
note at his airplane, then confronted him in the garage at
Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Photographs
show
Edwards
grabbed Harvick by the neck
before Harvick shoved him
onto the hood of his car.
After all that excitement,
Edwards had little to say the
rest of the week.
“It seems the more I do or
say this week, the worse off I
am, so I just wanted to get to
the end of the race,” he said
Saturday night. “I’ve never
been so excited to race at Martinsville in my life.”
A new location, however,
doesn’t mean the topic of conversation will change.
No other sport is quite like
NASCAR, with a grueling 38weekend schedule that forces
its drivers, crew chiefs and
owners to live inches apart
three nights a week in
motorhomes. In that tiny
mobile racing community,
everyone knows everybody
and everything that’s going on
— even if there weren’t photos
of the two tussling in the
garage.
It’s been a good long while
since NASCAR had a drama
this good play out so publicly.
Sure, you still hear whispers
that Driver A spun Driver B in
a spat over a girl, or so-and-so
punched so-and-so when at
the airport after a race in
which they’d tangled. But this
— complete with the five photographs — has everyone
abuzz.
It doesn’t help Edwards that
his spat is with a driver who
loves being the center of a
storm. If Edwards is the Eddie
Haskell of NASCAR (as Tony
Stewart once called him) then
Harvick is the Bart Simpson.
Harvick has battled with
Ricky Rudd, Greg Biffle, both
Busch brothers, Juan Pablo
Montoya, NASCAR and anyone
else who gets in his way. He’s
not shy to voice an opinion on
other people’s business, never
minces words, doesn’t back
down from a fight and loves
every minute of it.
Not convinced? The smirk
on his face Friday, when he
shared his version of the
garage incident, said it all. And
he was quick to point out he
didn’t care what Edwards has
on the line.
Was he trying to get in
Edwards’ head through the
entire episode? “That’s not
that hard to do,” he said with a
smile.
Harvick doesn’t really care
what people think about him,
and that confidence has helped
him rebound from every tussle
over the past eight seasons.
Edwards might be better off
taking a similar approach.
This time last year he threw
a fake punch at teammate Matt
Kenseth that was caught on
videotape and ended up on
YouTube. Although several
rival drivers took their shots at
him the next weekend, the criticism faded and Edwards
moved on.
It won’t be as easy this time
around.
Edwards
accepted
full
responsibility for the Talladega
wreck and apologized for taking out several championship
contenders.
But he couldn’t quite shake
Harvick dissing him on national TV, which turned into a
garage-area altercation. Then
that 33rd-place finish capped
off a horrible week.
He’ll argue it was an ignition
problem that derailed his race,
but his body language all weekend indicated he’d already been
defeated.
But just because Edwards
said he’d do things differently,
it doesn’t mean he did them
wrong.
He has played for 11 teams
in his career.
The Phillies hit an NL-leading 214 homers during the
regular season, and have nine
in eight postseason games,
good for 17 of their 35 runs.
There were no brushback
pitches or other trouble Monday night, unlike Game 3
when the benches and
bullpens emptied in the third
inning,
moments
after
Dodgers starter Hiroki Kuroda threw a pitch over Victorino’s head in retaliation for
Philadelphia’s high and tight
pitches earlier in the series.
Brad Lidge, the Phillies’
sixth pitcher, got four outs for
his fifth postseason save in five
chances, but it wasn’t easy.
Lidge, a perfect 41-for-41 in
save opportunities during the
regular season, entered a
game in the eighth for the
first time this year, coming in
with two outs and nobody on.
Manny Ramirez greeted him
with a double, and Russell
Martin struck out but reached
first on a wild pitch before
James Loney flied to left.
Lidge retired the side in
order in the ninth, giving the
Phillies an 85-0 record when
leading after eight innings
this year, including six wins in
the postseason.
The Dodgers scored twice
in the sixth for a 5-3 lead.
Casey Blake, who struck out
in his first two at-bats, greeted reliever Chad Durbin by
hitting a 1-2 pitch over the
left-field wall for his first
postseason homer.
Juan Pierre, making his first
start of the postseason, followed with a double and pinchhitter Matt Kemp walked.
Scott Eyre relieved and first
baseman Ryan Howard threw
wildly past first on Rafael Furcal’s sacrifice bunt, allowing
Pierre to score and putting
runners at second and third.
Andre Ethier lined to first and,
after Ramirez drew his second
intentional walk of the game to
load the bases, second baseman Chase Utley snared Russell Martin’s liner and turned
it into a double play.
The Dodgers took a 3-2
lead in the fifth, scoring twice
with Ramirez delivering the
key blow. Rafael Furcal
walked and Ethier singled
before Ramirez lined Joe
Blanton’s first pitch to left to
drive in Furcal, who ran
through third base coach
Larry Bowa’s stop sign and
barely beat Pat Burrell’s
throw home. Ethier scored on
Russell Martin’s grounder.
The Phillies tied it in the
sixth when Howard scored
from third on Chan Ho Park’s
two-out wild pitch. Then, with
Joe Beimel pitching and runners at first and third, right
fielder Ethier made a diving
catch of pinch-hitter So
Taguchi’s blooper to end the
inning.
Jimmy Rollins singled off
Derek Lowe to start the
game, took third on Jayson
Werth’s hit-and-run single
and scored when Utley doubled on an 0-2 pitch. Werth
came home on Howard’s
infield out to make it 2-0, and
Burrell walked before Victorino grounded into an inningending double play.
Furcal bunted for a base hit
on Blanton’s first pitch in the
bottom half, popping the ball
over the head of charging third
baseman Greg Dobbs. Furcal
later scored when James Loney
doubled on an 0-2 pitch.
rifice fly in the 11th inning
won Game 2, hit a three-run
homer in the third that sailed
completely out of the park.
Longoria added a solo shot
later in the third — also off
Lester, who pitched a no-hitter at Fenway in May and was
11-1 at home this year.
Baldelli added on a threerun shot in the eighth and
Pena made it 9-1 in the ninth,
both off Paul Byrd. A lifetime
Ray, Baldelli had never
appeared in the postseason
before; Pena is well-traveled
— this is his fifth team, including the Red Sox — but he
somehow managed to avoid
appearing in a playoff game
until arriving in Tampa Bay.
The four homers in a game
tied the ALCS home run
record last matched by
Boston in Game 2 against
Tampa Bay on Saturday.
“Solo home runs are good,
but three-run homers mean
so much more. It put us up 40 and gave us all the confidence in the world,” said
Upton, who has five homers
in the playoffs after hitting
just nine during the regular
season. “We feel the sky’s the
limit for us all year. To beat
(Lester), and to beat him at
Fenway, hopefully it’ll have a
snowball effect.”
The Rays also hit hard on
the basepaths. Carl Crawford
bowled over Boston catcher
Jason Varitek on a play at the
plate. There was no immediate reprisal in a matchup
between teams that have tangled in the past.
The Red Sox put two on
with nobody out in the seventh to chase Garza, then J.P.
Howell gave up a sacrifice fly.
Howell pitched two innings
and Edwin Jackson closed out
the victory.

round series against the
White Sox.
“Everybody was on that
one mission, and that was to
win. We want to win now. We
don’t want to be the team that
waits for later, we want to win
now,” he said.
Andy Sonnanstine will try
to win Game 4 for the Rays
when he faces knuckleballer
Tim Wakefield in Game 4 of
the best-of-seven series on
Tuesday night.
Fenway Park has batting
practice baseballs older than
the Rays franchise, and the
37-foot wall that looms over
left field is the signature feature of the major leagues’ oldest ballpark. But Tampa Bay,
which climbed past the Yankees and Red Sox in the regular season, treated the Monster like just another old-fashioned obstacle to overcome.
Upton, whose shallow sac-

Killdeer Veterinary Clinic building is finished
Shelley Lenz is treating animals
By Ashley Martin
amartin@thedickinsonpress.com
animals and that’s really where my strength is,”
Lenz said.
She added she will occasionally do exams for
other small animals, but often refers them to
other vets.
She hopes to eventually hire someone to work
with cattle.
Lenz was working with clients in Killdeer and
surrounding areas in her mobile unit, but says
she is treating animals from more areas now.
“It seems like they’re coming from even further away,” Lenz said.
She is expanding on her practice by adding
new treatment options for animals. Lenz can do
acupuncture treatments and is in the process of
getting certified for chiropractic treatment.
“(I’m) just trying to offer
more services to make our
animals feel better,” Lenz said
In the future she hopes to
hire someone to do grooming
and boarding services.
One part of Lenz’s career
that she finds particularly rewarding is when she
is able to save animals.
“Sometimes people don’t even realize what’s
possible for their animal,” Lenz said.
While not every animal can be saved, Lenz
explains every situation to the owner so they
are able to make the best decision for their animals.
“By helping them know what’s going on, they
can feel so much better about their decision,”
Lenz said.
She added that the Killdeer community has
also helped to make her new business venture
worthwhile.
“I’m just very grateful for the community,”
Lenz said.
Killdeer Veterinary Clinic is located at 701
Highway 200 north of Killdeer. The clinic is
open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. To contact Lenz, call 701-764-6511.
After working out of a mobile clinic for several months, Shelley Lenz has moved Killdeer
Veterinary Clinic into a brand new building.
“I’m just tickled with it and I love being an
owner,” Lenz said.
Construction on the building picked up in
March and the building was fully functional in
June.
“Everything is done faster and more efficiently here,” Lenz said. “I have a whole building
instead of having just the basics in the van so I
can do more.”
Since she is not driving to
her clients anymore, she can
treat more animals in a day
and respond faster to emergencies.
“I’m always open for emergencies,” Lenz said. “If I need
to come in at four in the morning, I come in at four in the
morning. If it’s an emergency
to the client, it’s an emergency to me too.”
Lenz has a veterinary technician, a receptionist and occasional part-time employees. She is
also offering externships, which are similar to
internships, but include smaller blocks of time
and can be done while attending school.
“We’re doing both veterinary students and
Press Photo by Ashley Martin veterinary technicians,” Lenz said about the

Catholic quilters give blankets to
veterans at St. Benedict’s Home

Seventeen veterans at Dickinson’s St. Benedict’s Health
Care Center received handmade quilts from the Dickinson
Catholic Quilters on Oct. 3.
“Some were lap ones and
some were bed quilts. The veterans decided which they
wanted,” said St. Benedict’s
Volunteer Coordinator Susie
Kapelovitz.
“We love every one of them.
We think their quilting is beautiful and we appreciate their
day mornings at St. Patrick’s
parish center.
Member Marie Renner said
the women have made 257
quilts since the first of the year.
“We donate quite a bit of
them to the Domestic Violence
shelter and a lot to St. Joseph’s
Hospital nursery. We donate
quilts to the Dorcas Society
and we send many, many quilts
to Guatemala,” she said.
The women are currently
making quilts for the veterans
at Dickinson’s St. Luke’s
Home.
