Osteoporosis in Men Osteoporosis is a disease that causes the bones to becom...
Recently, I had the opportunity to sit with a nice elderly lady and she was sharing with me about her health issues and other concerns. Suddenly she stopped and wanted to know if she could ask me a serious question. I said of course, and she proceeded to relay that she felt silly asking me about salvation, especially with her being a church member since she was a child. Her question was, “How can I really know I’m going to heaven?” I do not believe this is anything to be embarrassed about...

The North Dakota Congressional delegation introduced legislation on July 12 to change the name of "Sullys Hill," a National Game Preserve administered by U.S. Fish and Wildlife (FWS) within the Spirit Lake Indian Reservation, to "White Horse Hill," its traditional Dakota name. The federal government named this preserve in 1931 after General Alfred Sully, who killed hundreds of Native Americans, including ancestors of the Spirit Lake Nation. Because the name change came through an act of Congress, it takes another act of Congress to restore its...
In the end, the aggregate talent level on the SNR Black Sox Babe Ruth team outmatched the rest of District 2 and made the ultimate tournament result feel like more of a coronation than anything. But try telling that to a group of kids making the program's first earned state tournament berth in 17 years, and the first utilizing exclusively home-grown players. The Black Sox rode the fastball of Alex Harrison to 11 Rugby strikeouts and just one hit allowed over seven innings, and had two big...

The Raymond B. Thorn Post 30 Black Sox of New Rockford took care of some late-season business with District 4 American Legion league victories July 15 and 17. Last Monday, it took well into the late hours, but Post 30 took a 12-6 win in Steele over Kidder County Post 231 in nine innings, and followed that up two days later with a doubleheader sweep on the road over Victor B. Wallin Post 12 of Washburn by scores of 7-2 and 6-5. Boxscores from the three games were unavailable at press time. The...
