Oct. 18 brought the top two seeds in Super Region 4 together in the New Rockford-Sheyenne gymnasium: the New Rockford-Sheyenne Rockets and the Langdon Area/Edmore/Munich (LA/E/M) Cardinals. Before the start of the b-squad game, the Cardinals presented Bailey Jacobson with $1,000. The entire LA/E/M team also purchased "Battling with Bailey" t-shirts from Positive Vibes Apparel to wear as their warmups in support of the family. With LA/E/M junior, Cora Badding, back on the court after a knee...

Watching your investments take a tumble in the stock market generally isn’t a fun experience. But seasoned investors know that market volatility – and the inherent ups and downs that come with it - is a natural part of the process, and that historical trends show that market swings even out over time.

In the graphs contained within the report, it showed...

I had a decent Monday and a decent morning of scouting the river. I wil...
Only five percent of the U.S. population hunts. That leaves 95 percent of the population as non-hunters. They are our neighbors, family, friends, or friends of friends, and so on. That population will ultimately decide if hunting is allowed to continue. If someone who hasn't been closely exposed to hunting from a friend or family member watches or sees a hunting show, a video on YouTube, or a "grip and grin" Instagram post, how will they view hunting? Now, suppose that same person asked you why...
