WILLISTON — Stropiq has gotten permission to try out its wings and see if it can fly. The Williams County Board of Com-missioners gave the $500 million mixed-use Williston Crossing development a 3-2 thumbs up Tuesday.

Stropiq principle Terry Olin told the board the best chance of success for Wil-liston Crossing is making sure the development is truly something right for the community.

"If you don't want to go there, and frankly pretty often, our retailers will be sorry they came," Olin said. “And so it first and fore-most has to work for you."

Olin said he does not

believe that building Wil-liston Crossing will deprive other retail developments. Rather, building a world class asset that makes northwestern North Dakota a "cooler place to live" helps convince families to not only work here, but bring their families to live.

"You have all heard it before," Olin said. "I could not get my family to live here because it's missing something. You know what that something is? It's retail and entertainment."

Olin acknowledged there are other "shovel-ready" locations that have been designated for retail in Williston. He said project particulars, including its location, were developed by national, world-class

experts to give it the best chance of success.

Several citizens spoke during the meeting, in-cluding Williston Mayor Howard Klug, who detailed maps showing shovel-ready retail areas.

The city has put six years of effort into developing retail areas, he said, adding the figure is more like 600 to 800 acres.

"What did we have to do first?" Klug asked. "We had to build living units. And did we do that? Ab-solutely, we did. We have apartments, duplexes, and townhouses in the ground, all ready to be occupied."

What's next is retail, which is coming along. Klug noted 14 new restau-rants have opened and the

arrival of Menards. Klug then passed out an

agreement between Willis-ton, Williams County and the Department of Trans-portation representing two years of discussions on the truck reliever route, including responsibility for appropriate zoning and platting around it.

Now, Klug said, the county is already discuss-ing different zoning and undermining the goal of getting trucks out of the city of Williston.

"Here is a decision docu-ment signed by all of you folks," Klug said. "Those are the decisions that I would like for you to make sure that you follow."

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) - The company responsible for a 30,000-gallon oil spill into Montana's Yellowstone River will try to remove its breached pipeline Wednesday as regulators investigate the cause of the accident that contaminated downstream water sup-plies.

The broken section of pipeline will be sent to a laboratory for a metallur-gical analysis as required under a federal order, Bridger Pipeline spokes-man Bill Salvin said.

The January breach in the Casper, Wyoming com-pany's pipeline temporar-ily fouled water supplies for thousands of people downstream in Glendive. Only about 2,500 gallons of crude were recovered from the river.

It was the second large spill into the Yellowstone since 2011, renewing calls for pipelines to be buried more deeply at river cross-ings.

Bridger's Poplar Line carries oil from the Bak-ken region of Montana and North Dakota. The dam-aged section was installed in 1967, in an 8-foot-deep trench dug into the river bottom, according to docu-ments submitted to regula-tors.

Officials are investigat-ing whether high waters or an ice jam on the river near the spill last year played a role in the breach. A large enough ice jam can scour a river bottom and scrape away the cover over a pipeline.

Federal law requires pipelines to be buried just 4 feet beneath major water bodies. Despite criticism those rules were inad-equate, the U.S. Transpor-tation Department deter-mined in 2014 that 4 feet was sufficient.

Spokesman Damon Hill said the agency has worked closely with pipeline companies in Montana and elsewhere to identify and replace those river cross-ings that pose a risk.

Near Billings, Phillips 66 on Tuesday was to begin drilling a new line for its Seminoe petroleum products pipeline to put it approximately 40 feet beneath the river. The line at times has been just 2-½ feet beneath the Yellow-stone's shifting riverbed.

It will be at least the 10th pipeline crossing that Phillips 66 has replaced since 2011, when an Exxon-Mobil pipeline broke and released 63,000 gallons of crude into the Yellowstone near Laurel, Hill said.

GRAND FORKS — North Dakota is not immune to human trafficking, was the message one anti-trafficking advocate was spreading Tuesday.

At an all-day anti-human trafficking workshop at the Alerus Center Tuesday, Windie Lazenko, a human trafficking survivor and founder of 4her North Da-

kota, called on law enforce-ment officers, social work-ers, business owners and others to play their part in identifying and combating human trafficking in their daily work.

"This is just step one," Lazenko said.

She praised North Dakota for proposing legislation to shore up state laws relating to human trafficking, or the sale of girls' and women's

bodies, but pointed to gaps like the lack of court-man-dated education programs for men caught buying sex.

"(Trafficking) never used to be an apparent issue in the Grand Forks area," said East Grand Forks Police De-partment Chief Mike Hed-lund, who attended the event to further his knowledge about human trafficking.

WILLISTON — Honesty, success and integrity are just some ways of describ-ing Andrea Heller.

Heller has been the WSC bookstore manager for more than 25 years. When her family had been struggling from a drought 25 years ago, Heller began taking busi-ness classes at Williston State College, where she got a job doing inventory in the bookstore.

Opportunity first arose for Heller when the WSC book store manager became ill one summer. She gladly took on more responsibility and accepted the manager position.

“When I first started I was the only employee and was only able to bring someone in for the two rush times in August and January.” Heller stated. “My first year was successful so Garvin Ste-vens made the decision to remodel the bookstore. I was able to get another employee and we kept growing.”

Just as she was the as-sistant at one point, ready to step in, she credits her longtime assistant for mak-ing the job easier and more enjoyable.

“Behind a good manager there has to be a good as-sistant and that would have been Kay Anderson who

Visitation for Carl will be 5 to 7 p.m. MDT, Thursday, April 9 at Stevenson Funeral Home in Dickinson with a prayer service being held at 7 p.m., MDT.

Carl passed away Thurs-day, April 2, 2015 in rural Dunn County from injuries sustained in a truck acci-dent.

Carl was born April 7, 1966 in Ishmere, Turkey, the son of Hershel and Gloria (Breen) Inman. Growing up he attended schools in Mary-land, Panama, and Willis-ton. He attended two years of college at Minot State.

Carl worked various jobs throughout western North Dakota. For the past 15 years, he was driving truck,

primarily for MBI out of Belfield. On March 5, 2009, Carl married Tammy Cahoon in Las Vegas. Together, they made their home in Glen Ullin where they raised their three sons, Levi, Braeden, Skyler and their pug, Snuggles. Carl loved riding his Harley with Tammy, their boys and Snuggles. Carl never went anywhere without Snuggles the pug tagging along.

He enjoyed camping, spending time outdoors and was a proud member of the Glen Ullin Motorcycle Club. Carl loved to fix and work on any vehicle and was consid-ered to be a wrench head. He had a quick wit about him and was known to greet people with “Mornin’ ~ Mornin’”. If he was asked

how he was doing, he would reply with “better than I deserve”.

Carl is survived by his wife, Tammy of Glen Ulin; sons, Levi Inman (fiancée Kayla Martell) of Mandan, Braeden and Skyler In-man of Glen Ullin; pet pug, Snuggles; parents, Hershel and Gloria Inman of Willis-ton, Rodger Cahoon of Glen Ullin and Arlis Cahoon of Bismarck; brothers, Her-shel Jr. and David Inman of Williston, Charles (Shara) Inman of Minot; sisters-in-law, Mary Ann (Al) Couch of Mandan and Crystal Miller of Mandan; two nieces, three nephews and numer-ous cousins.

He was preceded in death by his grandparents; and brother-in-law, Curtis Ca-hoon.

There are no statistics on how many women and girls are trafficked in North Dakota, nor are there data on the demographics of the women and girls being trafficked in North Dakota -- where they are from, their race, their age.

GETTING THROUGHGrand Forks Police inves-

tigator Steve Conley, who attended the event Tuesday, said he has talked with nearly 100 trafficked women and girls over the past two years through weekly "knock and talks."

Of the nearly 100 women he has talked with, most were from out-of-state and most were black women, he said.

Conley said investigators have been doing the "knock and talks" ever since they learned two years ago that escorts were advertising their services on websites like Backpage.

Investigators arrange a time to meet with the wom-en and try to connect them with services to escape the sex trade.

"The majority are some-what cooperative once they find out we're not there to arrest them," Conley said.

But other times, the women can be hostile.

"Is there a way to diffuse that hardness?" Lazenko asked of the audience. La-zenko was the sole speaker at the event, where she shared her experience as a sex trafficking survivor and

as an advocate.She told the audience that

when she was "in the life," she did not see herself as a victim.

She acknowledged the dif-ficulty of getting through to women under the control of a pimp, saying they dislike law enforcement and will often refuse services like shelters.

But she also pointed out it is imperative that law enforcement, social workers and others get through to trafficked girls and women.

"You're not going to get the trafficker (arrested) without the girl," she said.

Conley said he believes social workers and advocates have a better chance of getting through to victims of human trafficking than police.

"I don't see us in law enforcement doing it in a short encounter unless (the women are) at that point" where they are ready to leave the pimp, Conley said.

He said in his experience, the women will not admit to him that they have a pimp even when it is obvious they do.

"They'll say, 'I have had one in the past. But not now,'" he said.

Conley said he will call a nonprofit if the women ask for help, but that sometimes they refuse services.

"You can tell when it's run its course," he said.

SOWING HOPELazenko said it is impor-

tant to involve advocates

who can relate to trafficked girls and women.

She encouraged audience members to speak hope to trafficked women.

"If one person had been able to identify a red flag ... and spoke concern, I know it would have changed my life," she said.

Jessie Fuher, a counselor in Jamestown who attended the talk, drew parallels between victims of sex trafficking and victims of domestic violence.

"There's a lot of overlap there in terms of control and disintegration of power," she said.

Fuher said the talk under-scored the importance of in-tervening in young people's lives before they became susceptible to falling under the control of a pimp.

Lazenko told the audience oftentimes pimps will prey on young and vulnerable girls; perhaps she is a run-away, perhaps a victim of an abusive home life, perhaps an addict.

The pimps put on the face of the loving, benevolent boyfriend until they gain the girl's trust and then force her to sell herself, sometimes using violence or addictive drugs to make the girl com-pliant, Lazenko said.

Pimps will also latch onto a girl's vulnerability and ex-ploit it to make her do what he wants, Lazenko said.

Vince Lindgren, a profes-sor in the University of North Dakota’s Social Work Department, said he learned something there.

"I wasn't aware of the emotional relationship between the pimp and the sex worker," he said. "Never having had the love and pro-tection of a loving parent and then finding someone like that (in the pimp)."

Olin said it seemed that Klug wanted Stropiq to "take its experienced experts and capital and get out of town because it's all already been handled."

Klug said he absolutely does not want Stropiq to take their money elsewhere.

"I want him to put his money in the right spot in the community, in places that are already ready to go,” he responded.

Olin agreed his property is not shovel-ready, and agreed the city's shovel-ready property gives it an advantage.

Patrick Murphy, car deal-ership owner and area real estate developer, said he agreed retail is needed and has been for decades. That's what led him to get behind the Northstar Center, a 535-acre development with 2.7 million square feet of retail space. It is also bordered by the truck reliever route.

"The project we saw is beautiful and I support the idea and concept they

presented" he said, "but I gotta tell you based on my experience in trying to make deals with merchants and big box stores, their location is fatally flawed. There just isn't a big box store that's going to locate in that terrain that far off the highway."

With 800 acres of shovel-ready retail in Williston, where the questions of electric, water, sewer, police and fire are already answered, and another 800 acres getting ready to de-velop once the city airport moves, he cannot support Stropiq's project.

"It just isn't reasonable for the county to go in a com-pletely different direction than the city and try to start some new destination with-out all these questions being answered," Murphy said. "We cannot service it, we cannot defend it from fire, we cannot defend it from crime. Big box stores and hotels just won't go there.”

Larry Jensen, with Jones Lang LaSalle, disputed Murhpy's contention that

the location is flawed. He said if the project cannot be leased, then it won't be built.

Jensen is hoping to feature the Stropiq develop-ment at an upcoming inter-national retail conference, and is convinced that JLL will have the best location available.

County Commissioner Dan Kalil said his objec-tions would evaporate if the development simply slid one mile south. He be-lieves that would improve the development's chances of success.

"The highway visibility is better, the access is bet-ter," Kalil said. "And you would not impact the truck reliever route or bypass nearly as much as develop-ing to the north."

County Commissioner Martin Hanson agreed with Kalil that the development should be in the city.

Hanson added that he'd spent his entire life on a farm and found nothing aesthetically pleasing about turning hills and coolies into glass and retail.

"If this gets approved, better go out and take a look at the hills, because this is the last time you'll ever see it look that good again," he said. "There are other options, other places this development could be put. If it is going to be suc-cessful here, it will be suc-cessful there, and we won't have to be the ones respon-sible for it if it fails. We're the ones who will have to deal with this if it fails. It's a pie in the sky. And I don't think it's nearly as vision-ary as it is delusional."

Wayne Aberle discussed a motion to approve with 18 months to start infrastruc-ture after final platting.

Commissioners David Montgomery, Aberle and Bar-ry Ramberg voted for with Kalil and Hanson against.

Editor’s note: Aberle voted without noting that he works for Mountrail-Williams Electric Cooperative, the com-pany in line for the power contract with Stropiq.

always had my back,” Heller said. “I begged her to come and apply for the job 15 years ago and has been my right hand lady ever since.”

Since becoming the man-ager, Andrea’s has grown into a small coffee shop, bookstore, WSC apparel, and a place to get a quick snack before class.

When Heller first decided to retire in May, she had some concerns for her bookstore. She expressed her concerns to President Raymond Nadolny about how they will still be sell-ing books and keeping the success alive when there are now other places stu-dents can buy books, such as Amazon. Nadolny as-sured her not to worry, and shortly after naming the bookstore Andrea’s, the college found a solution.

“I want to thank Terry Olson and the WSC Foun-dation for easing my financial worries about Andrea’s,” she said. “They were able to grant book scholarships to students in the ten counties and with free tuition, fees and

books next fall in the book store will be on track after I depart.” Even though retirement is just around the corner, Heller will always have a presence at WSC. The giant letters en-graved out in the front of

the bookstore will forever read, Andrea’s, this will be a place where the faculty, students, and staff mem-ber can be reminded of how successful Heller was with the bookstore.

GRAND FORKS — Demo-crats in Grand Forks have filed a federal complaint over reported foreign campaign contributions to North Dakota Republican officials.

District 43 Democrats submitted the complaint to the Federal Election Com-mission, pointing to contri-butions made from people with foreign addresses to Gov. Jack Dalrymple and state Sen. Lonnie Laffen, R-Grand Forks, as well as to the “ND Oil” political action committee. The com-plaint cites federal law and regulations that they say prohibit contributions from foreign nationals in federal, state or local elections.

Christopher Grieve, the chairman of the District 43 Democrats, said in an email that district officials started looking into cam-paign contributions after the election and mailed the complaint Friday. The FEC had not received the complaint as of Tuesday, a spokeswoman for the com-mission said.

The complaint indicates Dalrymple received $3,500 in reported contributions from two people with Cana-dian and United Kingdom addresses in 2012.

Dalrymple's spokesman Jeff Zent said, "It is our understanding that the contribution is allowed, and that's according to our Secretary of State."

"The governor has pro-vided full disclosure of his campaign contributions as required," Zent added. "And if it would turn out that there's any issue with ... this contribution, we would remedy it."

Zent said Dalrymple may return the contribution if there is a problem with it.

Laffen reiterated Tuesday that he had checked with the Secretary of State's office on whether the $1,945 contribution from Canad Inns President Leo Ledo-howski, who also gave to

Dalrymple in 2012, would be allowed. North Dakota Secretary of State Al Jae-ger said in March it was his office's "long-standing understanding that the federal laws under the FEC apply to federal candidates and do not apply to in-state, nonfederal candidates."

Jaeger later said his office would review FEC rules to see what may apply to state candidates.

"If ... somewhere along the line we find out we're wrong, we'll make it cor-rect," Laffen said. "Right now, as far as I know, it's a legitimate contribution."

Democratic leaders have also filed a request for an attorney general's opinion on the "interplay between federal and state law" in foreign campaign contri-butions. Jaeger said he had no comment Tuesday, adding that he would only be repeating what he has previously said.

The complaint, which lists District 43 Democrats' treasurer Daniel Hinnen-kamp as the complainant, states that Laffen reported a $1,000 contribution from Ledohowski in 2010 as well as the 2014 contribution of $1,945. Dalrymple received a $2,500 contribution from Ledohowski in 2012 and $1,000 from John Pfeffer, who has a London address, according to Dalrymple's year-end campaign finance report.

The ND Oil PAC received $500 in 2014 from Dean Potter, who has a Calgary, Alberta., address, the com-plaint states.

Efforts to contact Potter were unsuccessful, and contact information for Pfeffer couldn't be found. An official for Canad Inns previously said it was their understanding the contri-bution to Laffen is allowed.

Ron Ness, president of the North Dakota Petro-leum Council, said the con-tribution to the ND Oil PAC would be returned if it's "not proper or authorized by statute."

BISMARCK — State senators voted overwhelm-ingly Tuesday to expand the places where a concealed weapons license holder can legally carry a firearm to in-clude public parks, political rallies and public rest areas.

The Senate voted 45-2 to pass House Bill 1241, which

bill carrier Sen. Kelly Arm-strong said clarifies, simpli-fies and expands gun rights in North Dakota.

“Concealed weapons permit holders are not the problem. They’re the good guys. They’re the ones who are the law-abiding citi-zens,” he said.

The bill removes political rallies or functions, musical

concerts, publicly owned parks and publicly owned or operated rest areas or restrooms from the list of places and events where it’s currently a Class B misde-meanor to possess a firearm or dangerous weapon.

It would still be illegal to carry a firearm in a school, publicly owned or operated building or a church with-

out the church’s permis-sion.

The legislation, which combines parts of three bills passed by the House, also removes single-shot projectile stun guns from the dangerous weapons law, allowing them to be car-ried for personal protection without a concealed weap-ons license.

Senate passes bill expanding places where concealed-carry is legal

Recently, a representative from the Hillary Clinton camp delivered a message to Martin O’Malley, the former Mary-land governor preparing to challenge Clinton for the 2016 Democratic nomination.

I have some good news and some bad news, the messenger said.

What’s the good news? asked O’Malley.The good news is we’re taking you seri-

ously, the messenger answered. And the bad news is ... we’re taking you seriously.

The undertone of threat was unmistak-able, but anyone who takes on Clintonworld has to expect that. And indeed, pro-O’Malley Democrats -- there are some -- are not at all surprised by the tone. “They are the most petty, vengeful people out there,” says one Democrat of the Clinton organization.

“They hold a grudge for decades. I don’t think he (O’Malley) expected them to wel-come him with a fruit basket.”

And Clintonworld has reason to be con-cerned. Yes, Hillary’s lead is huge, and yes, she is at this point the presumptive Demo-cratic nominee. But there are already emerging signs that the coronation might not go as planned.

It’s early yet, but O’Malley’s recent declaration -- “The presidency of the United States is not some crown to be passed between two families” -- is probably the best line of the campaign so far. If you took a poll to gauge public opin-ion on that turn of phrase, approval would likely be very, very high.

“It was a very effective line,” says another Democrat. “And it’s the first time he’s taken a swing -- he’s always deferred in the past.”

No more. O’Malley is acting like a real candidate now, traveling, hiring staff and fashioning a message. Democrat-ic insiders point to three factors that could help O’Malley turn a non-race into a race.

1) Even when she has the nomination race to herself, Clinton rarely rises above 60 percent with Democrats. (In the RealClearPolitics average of polls, she is currently just under 60 percent.)

“There is one-third to 40 percent of the Democratic elec-torate that wants a primary race,” notes the second Demo-crat. “Even in a field where she doesn’t have an opponent, Hillary doesn’t get above 65 percent.” The job of O’Malley, or any other Clinton challenger, is to connect with that 35 percent to 40 percent of Democrats who are hoping for a Clinton opponent.

2) The history of Democratic primary battles is that an insurgent almost always puts a scare into the sure-thing front-runner. “You can go back decades,” says the Demo-crat. “There has always been a moment in the Democratic primary in which the overwhelming, conventional, odds-on establishment favorite was vulnerable to an outsider chal-lenge.”

While that is truer of some years than others, there is a pretty long list of insurgents -- Howard Dean, Bill Brad-ley, Jerry Brown and others -- who created some nervous moments for the leading candidate. In 2008, of course, the outsider Barack Obama did a lot more than that. And the odds-on favorite he toppled then just happens to be the odds-on favorite now.

3) The press wants a primary. Republicans can complain that the media is in the tank for Hillary, but there seems little doubt that many voices in the press would like to see an actual contest for the Democratic nomination. The Boston Globe, for example, recently begged Sen. Elizabeth Warren to run.

“Democrats would be making a big mistake if they let Hillary Clinton coast to the presidential nomination with-out real opposition,” the paper editorialized. The fact that some key voices in the press won’t take Warren’s “no” for an answer is an indication the Fourth Estate would like a fight. And if Warren stays out, they’ll talk up any other credible challenger.

O’Malley is more than credible. He has the credentials of a two-term governor and the ability to position himself to the progressive left of Clinton. On Wall Street, LGBT issues, immigration, trade -- on those and more, O’Malley can cred-ibly cast himself as more progressive than Hillary.

“Hillary and Bill Clinton have been thick as thieves with Wall Street,” says a pro-O’Malley Democrat. “She was very close with the financial industry, and she depends on them for money.”

Years after the economic meltdown, many on the left are still angry that none of the big Wall Street players was punished, and it hurts Clinton to be associated with those players.

“This is a really, really, really big issue with progressives -- that there was no accountability for Wall Street,” says the Democrat.

The planets are aligning for a real Democratic race. That doesn’t mean Clinton will lose (although anything can hap-pen), but it does mean there will be no smooth, easy path to the crown.

Today in History

Today is Wednesday, April 8, the 98th day of 2015. There are 267 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On April 8, 1935, Presi-dent Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Emergency Relief Appropriations Act, which provided money for programs such as the Works Progress Adminis-tration.

On this date:

In 1864, the United States Senate passed, 38-6, the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution abol-ishing slavery. (The House of Representatives passed it in January 1865; the amendment was ratified and adopted in December 1865.)

In 1904, Longacre Square in Manhattan was re-named Times Square after The New York Times.

In 1946, the League of Nations assembled in Ge-neva for its final session.

In 1952, President Harry S. Truman seized the American steel industry to avert a nationwide strike. (The Supreme Court later ruled that Tru-man had overstepped his authority, opening the way for a seven-week strike by steelworkers.)

In 1961, a suspected bomb exploded aboard the passenger liner MV Dara in the Persian Gulf, causing it to sink; 238 of the 819 people aboard were killed.

In 1974, Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hit his 715th career home run in a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, break-ing Babe Ruth’s record.

In 1975, “The Godfather Part II” won the Academy Award for best picture.

Burger King to pay for the wedding of Mr. Burger, Ms. King

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. (AP) — Burger King is paying the expenses and providing gifts for the wedding of an Illi-nois couple with an interesting connection to the fast food restaurant chain. Joel Burger and Ashley King accepted the company's proposal Monday.

The State Journal-Register reports that the couple has been known as Burger-King since they were in the fifth grade together, in New Berlin near Springfield.

The couple announced their engagement this spring with a photo next to the sign at a local Burger King restaurant. Although a woman's name usually comes first in an engage-ment announcement, they decided to flip their names.

BY TONY AND SARAH NASELLOFORUM NEWS SERVICE

FARGO — "I wish we knew some farmers who grow dry edible beans," I said to Tony as we were staging the photo shoot for this week featuring a versatile dish we call North Dakota White Bean Puree. I knew from our experience with last summer's Banquet in a Field that North Dakota is the leading producer of dry edible beans, with varieties including pinto, black and dark and light red kidney beans, navy and great north-ern, and I wanted to know more about these crops.

Ask and you shall receive. Just a few hours later, a young farm couple from Al-ice, N.D., came to Sarello's for dinner, and before they left they extended an invitation to Tony to have our family visit their farm, where they grow a variety of crops in-cluding -- you guessed it -- dry edible beans.

I practically squealed with delight when Tony shared this with me because we've also been invited back to chair the food and menu committee for the 2015 Banquet in a Field, which will take place at Peterson Farms Seed on Aug. 4. Once again, we will feature almost a dozen appetizers inspired by North Dakota's leading crops, which include dry ed-ible beans, soybeans, corn, sugar beets, flax, canola, du-rum, spring wheat, sunflow-ers, barley and potatoes. This year we'd like to tell the story of these crops, following each all the way from seed to ban-quet, and the more farmers we know, the better.

We'll be testing a whole host of new recipes for this event, and this white bean puree could be a very strong contender. For this recipe, Tony used one can of great

northern beans; navy or cannellini beans would also work well. Other ingredients are garlic, extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, crushed red pepper flakes, fresh thyme or parsley, salt, pepper and paprika for a garnish. Aside from the fresh herbs, this rec-ipe features ingredients that are common pantry staples, making it a perfect dish to prepare in a pinch.

Great northern beans are an excellent source of fiber, iron, potassium and protein, and adding them to your diet on a regular basis may im-

prove digestion and reduce your risk of heart disease and diabetes. They are small and delicate, with a mild, nutty flavor and slightly grainy texture which trans-late well for this puree.

We love the versatility of beans in general, and this white bean puree in particu-lar, which is inexpensive and easy to make, packed with flavor, and can be made sev-eral days in advance. We of-ten enjoy it atop crostini with a dollop of zucchini relish, as a condiment on sandwiches or as a dip with hearty crack-

ers. It also makes a wonder-ful side dish to serve with meat or seafood, and for an elegant presentation Tony will create a base with the puree, which is then topped with grilled steak, salmon or, in this case, seared scallops.

All you'll need to make our white bean puree are the in-gredients and a food proces-sor. Everything but the fresh herbs and paprika goes into the food processor, and with-in about five minutes from start to finish you'll have a dish ready to serve. Any leftovers can be stored in the

fridge for up to a week.We look forward to explor-

ing North Dakota's agricul-ture in greater depth this year, and we'll be sure to share any new recipes with you along the way.

NORTH DAKOTA WHITE BEAN PUREE

Makes about 2 cups

Ingredients-- 1 15-ounce can great

northern beans (navy or can-nellini also work)

-- 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped

-- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil -- reserve 1 table-spoon for garnish

-- 1½ tablespoons lemon juice

-- ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

-- 1 teaspoon kosher salt-- ½ teaspoon freshly

ground black pepperFor garnish-- 1½ teaspoons fresh

thyme leaves or finely chopped parsley

-- ½ teaspoon paprika-- Extra virgin olive oil

DIRECTIONSPlace all ingredients in the

food processor, except the fresh herbs and paprika, and blend for about 2 to 3 minutes until smooth in texture. If the mixture is too thick, you can add 1 tablespoon of water and mix again for a few seconds.

Once the puree is ready, place in a serving bowl and garnish the top with fresh thyme leaves or chopped pars-ley, paprika and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Can be served immediately but even better if refrigerated for at least two hour before serving.

Store in refrigerator for up to one week.

Other uses-- As a spread atop crostini

and in a sandwich-- As a starch-substitute

with meat and seafood -- for an elegant presentation place the puree underneath scal-lops, steak and fish.

"Home With the Lost Ital-ian" is a weekly column writ-ten by Sarah Nasello featur-ing recipes by her husband, Tony Nasello. The couple owns Sarello's restaurant in Moorhead and lives in Fargo with their 10-year-old son, Giovanni. Readers can reach them at dine//thelostitalian.areavoices.com.

(Reuters) — A federal judge in Texas has refused to lift a temporary block on a White House immigra-tion plan that would have shielded millions of illegal immigrants from deporta-tion, court documents show.

U.S. District Judge An-drew Hanen in Brownsville, a city along the border with Mexico, rejected a U.S. Jus-tice Department request to remove a ban on the plan he issued in February.

Twenty-six U.S. states filed a lawsuit alleging Obama had exceeded his powers with executive or-ders that would let up to 4.7 million illegal immigrants stay in the country with-out threat of deportation. Obama's orders bypassed Congress, which has not been able to agree on immi-gration reform.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton said in a state-

ment on Tuesday that the Obama Administration misled the court regarding early implementation of expanded work permits to illegal immigrants.

At issue was a U.S. gov-ernment filing that said some 100,000 people had been given three-year peri-ods of deferred action before the judge's injunction.

"Any premature implemen-tation could have serious consequences, inflicting ir-reparable harm on our state, and this ruling is key in de-termining the extent to which the federal government did not present the full truth in this case," Paxton said.

The Justice Department, which could not be immedi-ately reached for comment, requested an emergency stay of Hanen's decision on Feb. 23. The White House did not issue an immediate com-ment.

BY ELVINA NAWAGUNAREUTERS

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Postal Service on Tues-day unveiled a limited edi-tion stamp honoring black poet and civil rights activist Maya Angelou.

The ceremony at the War-ner Theater in Washington, D.C., included Angelou's on-ly son, Guy Johnson, First Lady Michelle Obama, me-dia magnate Oprah Winfrey and U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder.

Longtime friend Winfrey said the poet would have laughed out loud at the news that she was going to be on a

postal stamp.Angelou's groundbreak-

ing 1969 memoir, "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings," earned her international acclaim for its unflinching account of rape and racism in the segregated South.

Angelou was 86 when she died at her home in May last year, following years of health problems.

"Today, Dr. Angelou re-ceives the Postal Service's highest honor, the com-memoration of her image on a United States postage stamp and yet her life, so meaningful and varied, can hardly be contained within the four corners of a stamp,"

Postmaster General Megan Brennan said at the cer-emony.

Atlanta artist Ross Ros-sin's 2013 portrait of Ange-lou was used for the stamp. It is part of the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery's collection and will be on dis-play until Nov. 1.

Angelou, who also was a singer and actress, became one of the most dynamic voices in 20th-century U.S. literature. Her life story en-tailed overcoming rape and racism in the South, finding her voice after several years of not speaking as a result of her abuse, and going on to write more than 30 books.

NORTH CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — Dramatic video that shows a white South Carolina police officer shoot-ing a fleeing black man after a traffic stop has led authori-ties to file a murder charge against the officer amid public outrage over a series of deaths of unarmed black men at the hands of law en-forcement agents.

Protests were planned Wednesday in North Charleston, led by a group formed after the fatal shoot-ing of another black man in Ferguson, Missouri.

The video, provided to the dead man's family and lawyer by an unidentified person who shot the footage, shows North Charleston Patrolman Michael Thomas Slager firing eight shots at the back of Walter Lamer Scott as he runs away. The 50-year-old man falls after the eighth shot, fired after a brief pause.

Scott's parents appeared separately on TV shows Wednesday morning, a day after the officer was charged.

Walter Scott Sr. told the NBC "Today Show" that his son may have run because he owed child support and didn't want to go back to jail.

Scott Sr. said that in the video, the officer "looked like he was trying to kill a deer running through the woods."

Judy Scott called the video "the most horrible thing I've ever seen."

"I almost couldn't look at it to see my son running defenselessly, being shot. It just tore my heart to pieces," she said on ABC's "Good Morning America."

Attorneys for the family said the man who shot the video is assisting investiga-tors. The person has not been identified.

North Charleston Mayor Keith Summey announced the charge at a news confer-ence Tuesday. Summy said Slager had made "a bad deci-sion." Authorities said Scott was shot after the officer had already hit the man with a stun gun after a traffic stop Saturday that began over a faulty brake light.

"When you're wrong, you're wrong," Summey told report-ers. "When you make a bad decision, don't care if you're behind the shield or a citizen on the street, you have to live with that decision."

Slager, who has been with the North Charleston police for five years, was denied bond at a first appearance hearing Tuesday. He was not accompanied by a lawyer. If convicted, he could face 30 years to life in prison.

The shooting comes amid ongoing public issues of trust between law enforce-ment and minority commu-nities after such prominent deaths as those of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mis-souri, and Eric Garner on Staten Island, New York.

Heightened scrutiny is be-ing placed by Americans on police officer shootings, par-ticularly those that involve white officers and unarmed black suspects. A grand jury declined to indict Ferguson, Missouri, officer Darren Wil-son in the fatal shooting of Brown last August, leading to nationwide protests.

A local Black Lives Matter group, formed after Brown's death, planned a demonstra-tion Wednesday morning at North Charleston City Hall.

CHICAGO — Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel tried to show a softer side during his successful battle against challenger Jesus "Chuy" Gar-cia, but political observers doubt his sometimes abra-sive style will change much as he struggles with the city's mounting fiscal problems.

Emanuel, former aide to President Barack Obama, won re-election on Tuesday in the city's first-ever may-oral runoff.

Now observers of Chicago politics are wondering how much Emanuel - who said Tuesday he will be a better mayor because of the elec-tion - can change.

"The mayor is who he is," said Paul Green, political science professor with Roo-sevelt University. "I think he's sincere when he says he'll listen more, but I don't think it will change much."

One change Emanuel will need to make is his reputa-

tion as anti-union, Rose said.Garcia had criticized

Emanuel for closing 50 public schools, a high crime rate, and a perceived affin-ity for wealthy donors over the general public.

Emanuel argued he has made tough decisions for the nation's third-largest city. In his second term, Emanuel

faces contract talks with a hostile teachers' union, a budget-cutting Republican Illinois governor and bal-looning pension payments.

Chicago faces a deficit expected to grow to $1.2 bil-lion next year, and Emanuel could call for more union concessions and possibly higher property taxes.

Former Vikings WR Jennings visits Dolphins

DAVIE, Fla. (AP) — Free agent receiver Greg Jennings is visiting the Miami Dolphins, who are eager to shore up their corps of wideouts after several departures this offseason.

The Minnesota Vikings released Jennings last month after acquiring re-ceiver Mike Wallace from Miami in a trade.

Jennings would have counted $11 million against the Vikings’ salary cap this year.

UConn claims national titleLady Huskies win 3rd straight championship

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Geno Au-riemma and his UConn Huskies are a perfect 10.

The Hall of Fame coach joined some elite company in UCLA’s John Wooden after tying the Wizard of Westwood with his 10th NCAA Tour-nament title.

“Obviously it’s a very significant number because that’s the number that’s been out there and people want to talk about it. I’ll be the first

to say I’m not John Wooden and I got a bunch of friends who’d tell you I’m right, I’m not,” Auriemma said. “As I said the other day I just think what we’ve done here in the last 20 years is pretty remarkable in its own right.

“I’ll let the people who write the his-tory decide where I fit in.”

Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis and Mo-riah Jefferson each scored 15 points Tuesday night to lead the Huskies to a 63-53 victory over Notre Dame. It was UConn’s third straight title; Au-riemma and the Huskies have won all 10 of their trips to the national championship game.

“Each day after January 1, this team just kept proving over and over

again,” Auriemma said. “You wouldn’t notice this by the scores. Every day this team kept working, they deserve everything they have.”

Breanna Stewart added 15 rebounds and eight points for UConn (38-1). The two-time AP Player

of the Year has saved her best games for the brightest lights.

She earned most outstanding player of the Final Four honors for the third time, making her the first woman ever to achieve that. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was the only men’s player to do it when he played for Wooden’s Bruins.

“We had to work hard this is one,” Stewart said with tears streaming down her face. “This is one of the hardest things we’ve had to do since I’ve been here.”

She stated when she came to UConn that her goal was to win four championships.

She’s now one title away from being the first to win four straight. Stewart has been a huge reason why the Huskies have been on their won three consecutive titles.

Auriemma took Stewart out with about 30 seconds to play and gave her a big hug. The 6-foot-4 star is the latest in a long line of outstanding UConn players that Auriemma has coached, including Rebecca Lobo, Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird and Maya Moore.

HIGH SCHOOL SOFTBALL

TERRI RIDER | COURTESY PHOTO

The Williston High School Lady Coyotes softball team has had its first three games of the season postponed due to inclement weather. The Lady Coyotes will debut on the softball diamond this weekend at a tournament in West Fargo.

WHS to debut on the softball diamondLady Coyotes have 32 athletes out for first seasonBY MARK JONESWILLISTON HERALD

WILLISTON — It’s been a long time in the works.

Once the announcement was officially made last summer that Williston High School would be adding softball to its athletic program this spring, interest began to grow.

As practice continues, the Lady Coyotes have 32 players out for the inaugural high school season.

But the thrill of playing in a competi-tive game continues to be dragged out for Williston.

The Lady Coyotes’ first three games of the season have been postponed due to inclement weather, including Tues-day’s home game against Dickinson.

And until the Lady Coyotes do play a

game, it’s hard for coach Jim Klein to know for sure what improvements his team needs to make.

“That’s the tough part,” Klein said. “We don’t know what to work on until we play a game.”

Williston will build its program around a pair of pitchers, who have gained valuable experiencing with the Williston Renegade.

Grace Erickson and Hannah McKenzie will share pitching duties until more pitchers can be developed.

“They’ll share the majority of the pitching (load),” the Willis-ton coach said.

Emily Stewart, who has committed to play at Williston State College next season, will anchor the infield at third base.

Another player that will likely have a big year is Katie Nice, who will play first base.

“We are bringing her along as a pitcher,” Klein said of Nice. “But she

wants to concentrate on being a first baseman.”

Of the 32 athletes out, there is a good mix between grades 9-12.

“We’re going to get a bunch of these girls into summer camp and build from there,” Klein said.

Klein says his team may be a little weak offensively.

“At the plate,” he said. “How the strike zone works and the pitch count.”

But still Klein has confidence in his team.

“It’s been a good group of girls,” he said. “All they have done is work to learn the sport.”

The Lady Coyotes will likely get to play that first game this weekend as they participate in a tournament in West Fargo.

The Lady Coyotes will play Devils Lake on Friday and Valley City and Grand Forks Central on Saturday.

“We are going to be fine,” Klein said. “We just got to be consistent on the mound and continue to grow.”

Peterson, Goodell to meet about reinstatementTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Minnesota Vikings run-ning back Adrian Peterson met Tuesday with NFL Com-missioner Roger Goodell regarding his reinstate-ment, eight days before the expected expiration of the suspension that was invoked last season under the per-sonal conduct policy.

The meeting at league headquarters in New York lasted about an hour and a half, according to a person with knowl-edge of the situation. The person spoke to The Associ-ated Press on condition of anonymity, because of the sensitivity of the information.

The meeting, which included other representatives from each side, was the first time Peterson and Goodell spoke, ei-ther in person or on the phone, since the child abuse case involving Peterson’s young son arose last September.

Shortly after the plea deal Peterson and his attorneys struck with the Texas court in November to reduce the charge from a felony to a mis-demeanor, Goodell suspended Peterson for the remaining six games of the season through at least April 15.

Peterson’s appeal was denied by arbitrator Harold Henderson, but the NFL Players Association took the fight to court and U.S. District Judge David Doty ruled in February that Hen-derson’s decision must be voided and thus sent back to the arbitration process.

In appealing Doty’s deci-sion, the NFL tabled Peter-son’s suspension and placed him on the special exempt list.

12-year-old ties for 1st in ESPN bracket challenge

HAWTHORN WOODS, Ill. (AP) — A sixth-grade boy from suburban Chicago completed a near-perfect bracket pre-dicting the NCAA men’s basketball tournament, finishing in a tie for first in ESPN’s massive an-nual contest.

Sam Holtz said ESPN officials told him that is he ineligible to claim the top prize — a $20,000 gift card and a trip to the Maui Invitational basketball tournament — because he’s 12 years old. ESPN requires partici-pants to be at least 18.

“I’m irritated,” Holtz told the Daily Herald (http://bit.ly/1O4FDtw ). “Yes, I’m still proud of my accomplishment, but I’m not happy with the decision.”

Finishing with the best bracket does not equal an automatic claim to the prize. ESPN awards the prize through a random draw of the brackets that

were among the top 1 percent in the contest — about 115,700 this year. Kevin Ota, a spokesman for ESPN Digital Media, said the network is put-ting together some kind of prize for Holtz.

“We plan to have fun with this,” Ota said Tues-day. “The great thing is that this kid beat all these experts out there.”

The tournament includes 67 games and Holtz missed only six. He was perfect pick-ing games played in the Sweet 16, Elite Eight and Final Four. Out of 11.5 million who entered a bracket on ESPN’s web-site, Sam finished tied for first with 1,830 points after Duke beat Wiscon-sin 68-63 in Monday’s championship game. He entered 10 brackets in the contest.

“There is no secret,” said Holtz, who attends Lake Zurich Middle School North.

As Blue Devils celebrate title, looking ahead to 2015-16BY DAVE SKRETTATHE ASSOCIATED PRESS

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Nobody will hang any nets to replace the ones Duke cut down Monday night for several months, giving the Blue Devils plenty of time to celebrate their fifth national championship.

That doesn’t mean everyone else isn’t thinking about the future.

More talented freshmen are ready to step into the spotlight, headlined by Ben Simmons, the nation’s top-ranked recruit headed to LSU. More coaches are ready to lead new programs, including Shaka Smart at Texas and Avery Johnson at Alabama. And all of them will be trying to snatch that crown off the head of Duke’s Mike Krzyzewski and his talented bunch in Durham.

Here are some of the intriguing story lines heading into the next season:

CAN DUKE DEFEND: The Blue Devils are almost certain to lose Jahlil Okafor, one of the top two prospects in the upcoming NBA draft, along with likely first-round

pick Justise Winslow. Tyus Jones, another freshman, could bolt after a dynamic title game performance.

Good thing for Coach K, two more five-star prospects are ready to step right in. Luke Kennard is a dead-eye shooting guard from Ohio, and Chase Jeter is a 6-foot-10 power forward with a polished game from the Bishop Gorman High School juggernaut in Las Vegas.

The last to win back-to-back titles? Florida in 2006-07. Before that? Duke in 1991-92.

CAN KENTUCKY CONTEND: After their pursuit of perfection came up two games short, coach John Calipari expects five and perhaps as many as seven Wildcats to skip to the NBA. Karl-Anthony Towns is a potential No. 1 pick, Willie-Cauley Stein and Trey Lyles are possible lottery picks, and the Harrison twins Andrew and Aaron are likely gone after their sopho-more seasons.

The big question marks are point guard Tyler Ulis and shoot-ing guard Devin Booker. If they return, and Calipari finds an-

other piece to go with highly rated recruits Isaiah Briscoe and Skal Labissiere, the Wildcats will be right in the thick of things.

“We would have loved to have been 40-0,” Calipari said after his team’s Final Four loss to Wis-consin. “Let’s see if we can take another stab at it.”

OTHER FAVORITES: Virginia returns almost everyone from a team that beat out the Blue Devils for the ACC regular-season title and could be the preseason No. 1. North Carolina is expected to return all five of its starters.

Georges Niang and Iowa State should be favored to end Kansas’s streak of 11 consecutive Big 12 championships. Maryland, Villa-nova and Notre Dame could also be in the mix.

“I wouldn’t trade anyone in the world for Georges Niang,” Cy-clones coach Fred Hoiberg said after his team was eliminated by UAB in the NCAA Tournament. “The kid is an absolute warrior and a winner.”

PLAYERS TO WATCH: Niang

may headline the list, a dynamic point forward who can score from anywhere on the floor. Kyle Wiltjer of Gonzaga, Fred VanVleet of Wichita State, Malcolm Brogdon of Virginia and Yogi Ferrell of Indiana should give college hoops plenty of star power.

Then there are the freshmen: Simmons and Labissiere are names to watch.

Jaylen Brown and Malik New-man, two top-five prospects, are still deciding where they will play. Diamond Stone is headed to Mary-land, and Ray Smith and Allonzo Trier headline a heralded class at Arizona.

NEW FACES, NEW PLACES: Smart is bringing his “havoc” style to Texas, where making 16 trips to the NCAA Tournament and one Final Four appearance wasn’t enough to save Rick Barnes.

It was enough to get Barnes hired by Tennessee in about 30 seconds.

Arizona State is replacing Herb Sendek. Ben Howland is in at Mississippi State and Johnson in at Alabama, giving the SEC some

fresh blood. Dave Leitao is back at DePaul, while St. John’s parted ways with Steve Lavin and brought in former star Chris Mullin.

“I looked at it as an obligation, first and foremost,” Mullin said of his decision to take over the Red Storm. “My desire to do it was there.”

AS FOR THE GAME: This is a rules change year for the NCAA, which means the game could look a bit different as the organization tries to spur scoring and speed up games.

Among the ideas on the table are reducing the 35-second shot clock to 30 seconds, moving the restrict-ed area arc from 3 feet to 4 feet to free up the post, and better enforce-ment of rules in regard to defend-ing players without the ball to help with freedom of movement.

“You could suggest the state of the game is not where we want it,” said Utah State athletic direc-tor Scott Barnes, chairman of the NCAA Tournament selection com-mittee. “We’re on the right track, but we have to continue to move forward.”

Dear Annie: I have a close acquaintance who is a fitness instructor at the health club where I often work out. Two years ago, I saw her at a local peace parade and got very worked up over something she wrote on the signs she was wearing. I became so crazed over it that I forgot myself and said some awful things about her. I also stopped going to her workout classes for a month and deleted her Facebook pages. Then I found out her husband had had a stroke the day of the parade.

I realized how hideous my behavior had been. I re-turned to her workout class and intended to apologize profusely to her, but she wasn’t there that day. When she finally came back, I told her I’d been praying for her and her husband.

Sometimes it seems she has forgiven me and every-thing is the same between us, but on other days, I’m not so sure. I apologized to her, in a general way, in a holiday greeting card, not mentioning the parade. I’ve lost countless hours of sleep crying from guilt, shame and regret. I’ve finally decided I have to do something. Please print this so she can see it and we can talk about it. -- Distraught

Dear Distraught: Printing this in the paper and hop-ing she sees it is a copout. You need to put your spine

in place and talk to her directly, no matter how hard it is. A semi-apology in a holiday greeting card doesn’t count, and telling her you will pray for her is kind, but in-sufficient.

Ask your friend whether she is available for coffee, or find some other time when neither of you is rushed and you can speak privately. Here’s what you say: “I know it’s been a while, but I need to tell you how sorry I am for my behavior at the parade and afterward. I don’t know what came over me. I value our friendship a great deal, and I am hoping you can for-give me.” Whatever happens after that, at least you will know you truly tried to make it right.

Dear Annie: “Grandma” has every right to be con-cerned about her stepson’s nearly 3-year-old child who barely speaks. She should follow her instincts and strongly encourage that the girl be assessed by a speech therapist. The lack of expres-sive language could also be a sign of autism.

While the suggestions to spend more time interact-

ing with the child are great, professional intervention might be necessary. It is de-plorable that the pediatrician has not caught this, as early intervention can change the trajectory of a child’s life.

As a special education teacher over the past 10 years, I’ve seen the terrible repercussions caused by the lack of early intervention and the overworked school systems that regularly miss identifying these needs. -- Concerned Special Ed Teacher

Dear Teacher: Several readers pointed out that the lack of speech could be a sign of autism. Others told us that their kids didn’t speak much at that age and turned out just fine. There’s no way for us to know what’s going on, but we absolutely concur that the child should be evalu-ated by a speech therapist to find out. Unfortunately, that is Dad’s call, and he seems disinclined to do anything. If “Grandma” can take her, wonderful. If not, talking and reading to this little girl could be a godsend.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Be more attentive to your friends and family. Let su-periors know your thoughts regarding workplace proce-dures. By speaking out, you will raise your profile and increase your chances of pro-motion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Careless mistakes will be costly. Whether at home or at work, you need to pay strict attention to what you are doing. Letting your mind wander will lead to an unfor-tunate mishap.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Dispel criticism that co-workers place on you. Don’t get caught in a verbal tug-of

war. If you let everyone know that you are a capable, hard worker, negative banter will dissipate.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Misunderstandings will lead to a series of problems. Be clear about your intentions and expectations, and allow others to voice their opinions. Keeping your feelings bottled up is a recipe for trouble.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Taking on too many profes-sional responsibilities will affect your personal life. Con-sider taking a trip or spend-ing a quiet evening at home with your family or other loved ones.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Dedicate some time to family entertainment. Whether you play games, share hobbies or participate in physical chal-lenges, include loved ones in your life and make some happy memories.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Don’t get rattled by minor issues at home. Be more accepting and less critical. Your patience will contribute to a calmer, more relaxed set-ting that is more conducive to solving problems.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Emotional issues will cloud your judgment. Facing the truth and setting time aside to discuss matters with an important someone will help rectify the problem.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Consider turning one of your skills or ideas in-to a home business. Get input from someone with relevant experience and find out what steps need to be taken.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- You will get ahead by sharing your ideas with your superiors. Extra time may be required to put your plans in motion, but the potential gain will be worth your while.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Be prepared to make personal decisions. Don’t try to do too much at once. Tack-le each issue individually if you want to make the right choices. Strive for perfection.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Expand your mind by engaging in events that teach you about different cultures or philosophies. Consider learning a second language or picking up a skill that can lead to greater prosperity.

Annie’s Mailbox

Gifford Pinchot, who was a governor of Pennsylvania and the first chief of the United States Forest Ser-vice, said, “Conservation is the application of common sense to the common prob-lems for the common good.”

By applying common sense to this bridge prob-lem, can South conserve his contract? He is in four spades. West leads the heart ace: four, eight (start of a high-low with a double-ton), nine. West cashes the heart king: seven, three, two. West continues with a third heart, and East ruffs dummy’s queen with his spade 10. How should South continue?

The bidding has a modern slant. North’s three-heart response is called a cue-bid raise. It shows three or more spades and at least game-invitational strength. Using this cue-bid, a jump to three spades would be pre-emptive, indicating four-card support but fewer than 10 support points. However, if you prefer to keep three spades as a game-invitation-al limit raise, go with it.

Note West’s third heart lead. This had two strategies. First, ruffing away dummy’s heart queen would stop de-clarer gaining a later discard on it. Also, perhaps East’s trump would be high enough to effect an uppercut.

Note that both of these ideas come to fruition. South can no longer pitch his club loser on the heart queen. Also, if he overruffs the spade jack, West will gain a trump trick, and the defenders will eventually take a club for down one.

South, though, should see that if he sheds his club three under the spade 10, his contract will be safe (unless West is void in a minor).

Woods back at the Masters and expecting to winAUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Tiger Woods

hit the ball so pure that he felt like a 14-time major champion. Before long, the swing left him and he resembled a guy who couldn’t break 80. He became so frustrated that he even threw a few clubs because of a game that had never been so maddening.

This wasn’t Woods playing in the Masters.

This was the last seven weeks when he was trying to decide if he should even show up.

“I worked my (tail) off,” Woods said Tuesday with a smile of satisfaction. “That’s the easiest way to kind of describe it. I worked hard. ... People would never understand how much work I put into it to come and do this again. But it was sunup to sundown, whenever I had free time. If the kids were asleep, I’d still be doing it. And then when they were in school, I’d still be doing it.

“So it was a lot of work.”And he got his answer.It took nearly two months, followed

by two practice rounds at Augusta National last week, before Woods de-cided to end his self-imposed break and return at the Masters.

Woods last played the Masters two years ago. He was No. 1 in the world and the overwhelming favorite. Now he is at No. 111 in the world and Las Vegas bookies may have been generous in list-ing him at 40-1.

Golf’s biggest star always lights up Augusta National, and such was the case when he arrived Monday after-noon.

Only now, expectations have been re-placed by sheer curiosity. Never mind that he hasn’t played in nearly two months and hasn’t won the Masters in 10 years. When last seen at a tournament, Woods couldn’t hit a simple chip shot, and the rest of his game was barely PGA Tour quality.

Adam Scott listed a half-dozen players that he could see contend for a green jacket, and he was asked why Woods was not on that short list.

“My guess is as good as yours,” Scott said. “I really don’t know. I have no idea what he’s doing. I’ve listed a bunch of guys that I’ve watched play a little bit and followed their results. But it’s a little bit unknown with Tiger because he hasn’t played for a few months.

“When you’re talking about a world-class player, you just don’t know,” he said. “I’m sure he has high hopes.”

That he does.Woods didn’t look anything like

the player who shot 82 at the Phoenix Open; who bladed a bunker shot over a green and into the bleachers; who walked off the course at Torrey Pines

after 11 holes of the first round. Dur-ing practice Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning, he looked closer to normal. There appeared to be no issues with his swing or his chipping. He looked comfortable when he hugged

his two children on the practice green and in a press room with no empty seats.

Woods always said he didn’t play in a tourna-ment if he didn’t expect to win. That standard hasn’t changed. There are no moral victories, even for a guy who hasn’t won anything since the Bridgestone Invitational in August 2013.

“No, I still feel the same way. I want to win,” Woods said. “The whole idea is to prepare and do that. And I feel like my game is finally ready to go and do that again.”

So many others are coming into the Masters in better form.

Rory McIlroy won early in the year at Dubai and began showing progress toward the end of the Florida swing. Jordan Spieth won at Innisbrook, was runner-up at the Texas Open and lost in a playoff at the Houston Open in his last three starts. He is eager at another shot at Augusta National, where last year he played in the final group at age 20.

‘I worked my (tail) off. That’s the easiest way to kind of describe it. I worked hard.’

Defense attorney: Ex-NFLer Hernandez witnessed killing

NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE

FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP) — Jurors began deliberat-ing Tuesday in the murder trial of former New Eng-land Patriots player Aaron Hernandez after his lawyer acknowledged for the first time that his client was at the scene of the killing and saw it happen but described him as a kid who simply did not know what to do.

“Did he make all the right decisions? No,” lawyer James Sultan said during his closing arguments. “He was a 23-year-old kid who witnessed something, a shocking killing, committed by somebody he knew. He really didn’t know what to do, so he just put one foot in front of the other.”

Hernandez is charged in the June 17, 2013, death of Odin Lloyd, 27, who was dating the sister of Hernandez’s fiancee. Lloyd was shot six times in an industrial park less than a mile from Hernandez’s home. At the time, the star tight end had a $40 million contract

with the Patriots.Sultan pinned the killing

on Hernandez’s co-defen-dants, his friends Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz. Both men have pleaded not guilty and will be tried later.

But Assistant District At-torney William McCauley told jurors the evidence showed that Hernandez was the gun-man, that he had a plan to kill Lloyd and that he drove Lloyd to his death in a deserted place in an undeveloped part of the industrial park.

“Ask yourself what was the purpose in driving to that spot at that time?” Mc-Cauley asked. “He was driv-ing. He’s the one who veered off the course to go down. There was no other purpose to go down there.”

He said Hernandez’s behavior after the crime also showed that he was involved. He cited evidence that Hernandez had rented a car for Wallace and directed his fiancee to give the two men $500 to flee.
