Record Editor cbenz@countrymedia.net The Hettinger-Scranton Night Hawk football season ended with a semifinal loss to the North Prairie Cougars (110). The defense for HettingerScranton (8-3) performed admirably against a team that averaged 41 points-per-game throughout the regular season and playoffs, allowing only 20 points. But their offense got stuck, and the Night
Hawks could only put eight points on the board with a touchdown and 2-point conversion with less than one minute remaining. With the win, North Prairie will face the Region 1 No. 1 seed Richland High School (11-0) in the title game at the Fargodome. North Prairie set the tone early. In a surprise move, the Cougars opened the game with an onside kick and recovered the ball. After a touchdown by North Prairie, they tried some trick-
ery again with another onside kick. This time, HettingerScranton was prepared and they were able to keep possession. The Cougars got the ball back when quarterback Hudson Pierce, a junior, threw an interception, his first of two in the game. After the turnover, the Night Hawk defense held the line strong and forced a turnover on downs. The Cougars were relentless, though, and blocked the ensuing Night Hawk punt, giving them good

Crews from the visiting Wanzek Construction helped out the golfers of Hettinger this past weekend. For the past three years, the golf course has been hampered by standing water due a lack of proper draining. During the spring when the snow melts, or during heavy rains, holes one, two three and four have been rendered unplayable due to standing water. Prior to the past three years, the area had been enduring somewhat of a drought and water drainage was never an issue. But lately with wet springs and heavy summer rains, the problem was something that couldn’t be

The Cougars would have possession of the ball as the first half was winding down, and Pfiefer kneeled to run out the clock. Each team was rendered scoreless in the third quarter. But the Cougars struck again with five minutes left in

West River Vet gets a grant for HVAC system By Cole Benz
Record Editor cbenz@countrymedia.net A recent grant for the West River Vet Clinic will help the Hettinger business finish construction of its new location, which is tentatively scheduled to open next April. The veterinary clinic received a grant in the amount of $92,850 to help defer some of the cost of the massive geothermal HVAC system that will be installed at the new site, located east of town. The size of the required system is dictated by the size of the
structure; this system is 1.74 billion BTUs and has 29 wells. The new building will be approximately 12,000 square feet. The new system features a floor heating option with a circulating system, this allows for quick temperature adjustment if needed. The grant amount is based on a percentage of the project and, Ethan Andress,Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, said the entire system cost is around $400,000. The grant is through the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Andress said it took “several months, and it’s very
involved.” The process isn’t just filling out a few forms, and Andress said there is a significant cost in applying for such grants. If you are not an expert in grant writing, you need to hire someone with experience in the field. The applicant must also hire a third party engineer, aside from the primary engineer, to determine that the cost is justified. “There’s a fairly significant investment just in applying for the grant, (and) you’re not guaranteed to get the grant when you do all that paper work,” Andress said. He said that receiving the
grant made the process and cost associated with it justified because of the amount they will be receiving. A program through the USDA/Slope Rural Electric cooperative has also assisted the project. That program is working with Dakota Western Bank and the project was granted a $2 million loan at zero percent interest. The project has been in progress since January 2014, and after a few delays they started working on the building earlier this year. Andress said that they are hoping to have the new facility open by April 1.

avoided any more. “Our natural drainage that was there was all silted in, and we couldn’t get any water to drain off the front four,” Jay Ohm said. Ohm is a board member with the Hettinger Country Club. “We just couldn’t get on there, it was too wet.” Over the years, top soil and silt just built up to a point where the water just couldn’t drain anymore, and it would settle. “It just built itself up to where there were high spots in [the drainage] and low spots in [the drainage], and the water couldn’t drain naturally,” Ohm said. Stepping in to assist with the situation was the Natural Resource Conservation Service and Wan-
zek Construction. After the board consulted amongst themselves, they looked to the Natural Resource Conservation Service office in Hettinger to formulate a plan of action. They were then put in touch with Dan Clausen of Dickinson. He came down and mapped out the spots that needed to be repaired. The next step for the board, and its members, was to find a way to accomplish the task. “It’s been a whole board membership, joint venture to do this.” Ohm said. “It’s something we’ve talked about for the last few years, and it was quite an expense to do it.” But after some of the Wanzek Construction workers saw the problem first hand while playing a

round, they volunteered to help out. About a month ago, Ohm received a phone call from Justin Gowan of Wanzek Construction who said that him and his crew would be able to help out. Gowan is a supervisor with Wanzek Construction. “Visiting with them, they said ‘you know maybe we can help you out,’” Ohm said. While working on a job, Wanzek Construction tries do a service project for the community, according to Gowan. “We try to help the community out and do a project for every job we do,” Gowan said. Supervisors and project managers on the different jobs will communicate with the community to find out if there is an area that needs construction help. Three workers, including Gowan, worked on the 40-hour project.
Crews came out and they started the drainage on hole 2 on the south end of the course and brought it up past the number one and three greens, and then routed the drainage across the maintenance road to the dam by number nine to go out the north end of the course. “The water should eventually work its way out to the north, through its natural drainage,” Ohm said. Ohm was very impressed with the work, and the process by Wanzek Construction. “My hats off to Wanzek,” Ohm said. “Justin and his crew did a fantastic job.” He added that the whole board and the members appreciated what Wanzek Construction did for the country club. The next step for the board is to get some grass seed laid so it can start growing right away next spring.

Church in Belle Fourche. Inurnment will follow at the Black Hills National Cemetery near Sturgis. Their families have our sympathy. Have you gotten the scam phone call from the IRS yet? Lots of people around here have gotten the call telling them that they are going to be sued for unpaid taxes and they are supposed to call to give them all your personal information immediately. I’ve heard from some of my constituents that got the scam call and this Friday I got my own scam call from someone pretending to be an IRS agent and demanding my personal information. The caller ID showed the number 425320-4801 from Everett, Washington, but evidently they use several different phone numbers. If you get the call, immediately hang up and call the sheriff or the Attorney General’s office at 605-773-3215. DO NOT return the call to the IRS scammers and DO NOT give them any of the information they want. Lanie and Matt came down from Dickinson Friday evening to spend the weekend here on the ranch and to attend the football game in Buffalo Saturday night. There was a huge crowd at the game, we heard that over 700 people showed up to watch the Ranchers and the Cowboys fight it out for a trip
to state. As soon as the game was over, some of us headed back toward Reva for the Men’s Banquet the Slim Buttes WMF was hosting at the Reva Hall. We made it in time for supper and to hear the speaker, Henry and Linda Mohagen’s sonin-law Pastor Jon Dryburgh. Jon and his family live in North Dakota where he pastors a church and is the principal of an elementary school. Jon also gave the message at Slim Buttes Lutheran Sunday morning. This Wednesday, November 11th is Veterans Day. Don’t forget to thank our veterans for sacrificing so much to preserve and protect our freedoms. I’ll leave you with this: A former Master Sergeant in the Marine Corps took a new job as a high school teacher. Just before the school year started, he injured†his back.† He was required to wear a plaster cast around the upper part of his body. Fortunately, the cast fit under his shirt and wasn’t noticeable. On the first day of class, he found himself assigned to the toughest students in the school. The smart-aleck punks, having already heard the new teacher was a former Marine, were leery of him. He knew they would be testing his discipline in the classroom. Walking confidently into the rowdy classroom, the new teacher opened the window wide. He†sat down at his desk. A†strong breeze†made his tie flap. He picked up a stapler and stapled the tie to his chest. Dead silence. The rest of the year went smoothly. *If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you can read it in English, thank a veteran.

Hat Tips By Dean Meyer
Hello, I can’t recall a fall with so many beautiful days. I know I will not have my fall work done when the first snows hit, but it dang sure won’t be Mother Natures fault. She is giving me plenty of opportunity. I’m a believer in climate change. And I’m thinking again this morning that maybe for our part of the
country that is not all bad. Please remind me of this again this winter when Shirley’s face is frostbitten and the tractor won’t start. On Saturday we moved a bunch of cows to the harvested cornfields. My ideas of beauty have somewhat changed over the years. Knowing that the prettiest thing in the world is a bunch of cows grazing in a valley surrounded by harvested corn and cover crops shows you my advanced age! The move was something special. It’s about nine miles and the cows pretty much know that
what is waiting for them at the end of the trail drive. Many of them have made the trek before. Cows can be rather dumb. But usually they have a better idea than the guy chasing them. Grandpa always said the fastest way to work cows was slow and he was sure right. And these mama cows knew that in a few hours they would be eating corn on the cob, sunflowers, turnips, radishes, and Sudan grass. We weren’t really chasing them. We were following them. I was doing a little figuring this morning. Now I’m in my late sixties. One
guy in a pickup was in his late seventies. After that there was a dramatic drop off in age. I’d guess the youngest cowboy was probably a long four or a short five. Then there was probably a six or seven. Maybe two that age. And a nine for sure. And they were mounted on horses that had more experience than any of the riders on the trail drive. We start out going down a gravel road by Lake Ilo. Then cross Highway 200, get on a section line, kind of sneak around Killdeer, and then head north to the fields. They’re a few adults, half a dozen kids,
four or five dogs, a feed pickup, and a couple trailers in case someone got cold and needed to warm up a little. They didn’t. When we were about a mile from cow heaven, we crossed a stubble field. All of a sudden the competitive juices surged up in me. I let out a Rebel yell and charged past our youngest drovers. As in the old country song, “my challenge was answered in less than a heart beat”! And away we went. Me whipping and spurring a three-year-old colt. My competition whipping and spurring their twenty plus year old horses. American
Pharaoh would have been proud. But when the dust settled, which happened fairly quickly, I lost. Mainly because the excitement and the exertion gave me a side ache. Now I have never heard of a jockey having to pull up because he got a side ache, but trust me, it happened. But you talk about a young bunch of cowboys that can move cows, I’ve seen them. And in a few years I will guarantee you some of them will be seeing the bright lights of Vegas from a bucking chute! Later, Dean
That’s Life By Tony Bender
I once stood in kneedeep water during a thunderstorm at a Nazareth concert. It may have been hailing, too. It could have been a tsunami, a hurricane or a typhoon, even. Then again, it may have been sunny and calm; my recollections may have merged with all the documentaries I’ve seen about Woodstock. Point is, I stood through Nazareth, The Atlanta Rhythm Section, Bob Welch and Black Oak Arkansas, who were the Joan Jett and the Blackhearts of the day. If there was a concert, you could be pretty sure Black Oak Arkansas was on the bill. I believe they played for my buddy, Bob’s, wedding in Herreid, South Dakota. I stood heroically at that concert—okay, out of necessity—because had I sat down, I would have drowned in the chest-high flood waters. If it did, indeed, rain that day. Fast-forward to last weekend.

bled his final anthem about teen angst and a twin-size mattress, after eight hours of standing and hopping, India and Abby emerged, well-moshed and dripping sweat, but still giddy with enough energy to handle at least one more concert. I felt old. As the taxi wound its way to the hotel, I glanced into the back seat. “Did I ever tell you about the time I had to dog-paddle for 90 minutes at a Nazareth concert?” The girls, iPhones on and earbuds in, didn’t hear me. “Wow,” said the driver, startling me, “how did you ever make it back?” I watched the neon blur past. “Clinging to a raft,” I said, finally, “with Kate Winslet.” At least that’s how I remember it. © Tony Bender, 2015

In 2003, they sold the farm and since then have resided in Hettinger. Matt enjoyed attending auction sales, collecting toys, and visiting with people.

Annual WRHS Auxiliary Turkey Luncheon Tastes Hugely Succcessful! By Ted Uecker
WRHS Fund Dev. Officer Crews from the visiting Wanzek Construction helped out the golfers of Hettinger this past weekend. For the past three years, the golf course has been hampered by standing water due to a lack of proper draining. During the spring when the snow melts, or during heavy rains, holes one, two three and four have been rendered unplayable due to standing water. Prior to the past three years, the area had been enduring somewhat of a drought and water drainage was never an issue. But lately with wet springs and heavy summer rains, the problem was something that couldn’t be avoided much longer. “Our natural drainage that was there was all silted in, and we couldn’t get any water to drain off the front four,” Jay Ohm said. Ohm is a board member with the Hettinger Country
Club. “We just couldn’t get on there, it was too wet.” Over the years, topsoil and silt just built up to a point where the water just couldn’t drain anymore, and it would settle. “It just built itself up to where there were high spots in (the drainage) and low spots in (the drainage), and the water couldn’t drain naturally,” Ohm said. Stepping in to assist with the situation was the Natural Resource Conservation Service and Wanzek Construction. After the board consulted amongst themselves, they looked to the Natural Resource Conservation Service office in Hettinger to formulate a plan of action. They were then put in touch with Dan Clausen of the NRCS office in Dickinson. He came down and mapped out the spots that needed to be repaired. The next step for the board, and its members, was to find a way to accomplish the task. “It’s been a whole board membership, joint ven-

ture to do this.” Ohm said. “It’s something we’ve talked about for the last few years, and it was quite an expense to do it.” But after some of the Wanzek Construction workers saw the problem first hand while playing a round, they volunteered to help out. About a month ago, Ohm received a phone call from Justin Gowan of Wanzek Construction who said that him and his crew would be able to help out. Gowan is a supervisor with Wanzek Construction. “Visiting with them, they said ‘you know maybe we can help you out,’” Ohm said. While working on a job, Wanzek Construction tries do a service project for the community, according to Gowan. “We try to help the community out and do a project for every job we do,” Gowan said. Supervisors and project managers on the different jobs will communicate with the community to find out if there is an area
that needs construction help. Three workers, including Gowan, worked on the 40-hour project. Crews came out and they started the drainage on hole 2 on the south end of the course and brought it up past the number one and three greens, and then routed the drainage across the maintenance road to the dam by number nine to go out the north end of the course. “The water should eventually work its way out to the north, through its natural drainage,” Ohm said. Ohm was very impressed with the work, and the progress by Wanzek Construction. “My hats off to Wanzek,” Ohm said. “Justin and his crew did a fantastic job.” He added that the whole board and the members appreciated what Wanzek Construction did for the country club. The next step for the board is to get some grass seed laid so it can start growing right away next spring.
Slope Electric seeks interest in nominating, resolutions committee Slope Electric is currently seeking interested parties wishing to be nominated for its Nominating and Resolutions Committee. The Slope Electric Board of Directors will appoint the committee at its Jan. 18 board meeting. Each director selects a member from his or her respective county, and those directors who are up for re-election select an additional committee member from their county. The committee will consist of no less than five nor more than 11 members. The committee member names are then published in Slope Electric’s local pages of the North Dakota Living Magazine. The Nominating and Resolutions Committee will meet twice. The first meeting will be held at 10:30 a.m. Feb. 25 to acquaint the committee with the responsibilities of a director of the cooperative, which will aid in selecting qualified members to be
nominated. The cooperative will pay a per diem, along with reimbursement for mileage. The second meeting will be held at 9 a.m. March 16.

N T Y Perkins Its not the endSfor C O UKat
By BREANNA KAITFORS Record Editor
There has ben so much going on in the area concerning Kat Perkins. From viewing parties to entire towns wearing her shirts, Perkins has received nothing but endless support from her hometown and the area surrounding. Unfortunately, she did not make it to the finale of ‘The Voice,” which will air next week on NBC. Perkins performed two very unique songs on Monday night’s episode. First, the Scrantonnative performed a brave, almost operatic performance of the new song “Chandelier” by Australian singer-songwriter, Sia. Before the performance, Perkins expressed her concern about singing a pop song. During the performance, however, she hit the high notes fearlessly without missing a single one. Coach Adam Levine praised Perkins’ performance, saying she was one of the best singer’s the show has ever had.

which will require legislative action of some kind. In addition, the Legislature must authorize the staffing levels. The most serious flaw in the initiated measure is that it copies the medical marijuana laws of other states calling for a whole new bureaucracy to control production and to be sure that distribution is confined to people with medical justification. North Dakota should not even consider authorizing in-state cultivation of marijuana when it can be purchased from any one of the 23 states in the
medical marijuana business. In-state production creates a real sieve full of opportunities for diversion. And instead of depending private suppliers, medical marijuana ought to be distributed by prescription solely through pharmacies in the same manner as other controlled drugs. That would keep it medical. The measure assumes competition among suppliers and requires the Health Department to take bids and choose the organization that will make the money in medi-
cal marijuana. Don’t kid yourself about the problems that will be involved with money. Once financial beneficiaries become involved, they will lobby in every legislative session to liberalize the rules so they can make more profit. Because passage of the initiative will have wideranging complications, the Legislative Management Committee would be wise to activate an interim study to identify the legislation that will be required to make the proposal workable.

In school, medical students learn about everything that goes on in order to have a baby. Because there are so many things happening all the time, this leaves a lot of room for things to go wrong. However, most pregnancies are perfectly healthy and normal. “It’s an exciting time in people’s lives.” Wellman said. “They always remember the birth of a child and to be able to there for that is fun.”

Night Hawks win regional play-in game; fall to New England in quarterfinals
Senior Lizzy Thompson gets setup for the kill against New England. The Night Hawks got swept in three sets to end their season in the regional quarterfinals. (Photo by Cole Benz)
By Sheldon Christenson For The Record
Hettinger-Scranton had to face the Bowman Bulldogs on Nov. 6 for the second time in a week, but the second time was the regional play-in game. The first set was close through the first half, as at one point it was tied 1111. The Night Hawks then took charge and downed
the lady Bulldogs 25-13. The second set ended with the same score as the Bulldogs just could not get their play going. The Night Hawks jumped out to a quick 7-1 lead, and at one point in the set held a commanding 20-3 lead. The Bulldogs fought back but could not overcome the big deficit. Bowman continued to step up their play in the last set, and although they
lost 26-24, the Bulldogs played well. Senior Lizzy Thompson was on fire as she had 15 kills to lead the Night Hawks, junior setter Tayler Burwick had 34 assists and senior Kayla Chadwick had seven digs. Freshman Ellie Stafford led Bowman County with eight kills, while senior Taylor Powell had three kills and three blocks. Junior Skylar Ruggles led in
digs with 14. Hettinger-Scranton came into the match with a 6-5 region record and an overall 17-17 record, a huge improvement over their record last season. Last season their region record was 2-9 and they also lost the regional playin game to Heart River. The Bulldogs came into the match winless in region play with a 0-11 record.
With the win the Night Hawks took on New England in the Region 7 tournament on Nov. 9 at Trinity and lost all three sets by scores of 25-23, 25-15 and 25-15. Good defense by both teams as the Night Hawks recorded 105 digs and the Tigers had 95. Leading the Night Hawks in kills were Lizzy Thompson with 13, Katelyn Turner had eight. Leading Hettinger/Scran-
ton in digs were Thompson (22), Kayla Chadwick with (21) and Molly Holt with 15. Tayler Burwick added 26 assists. The loss ended the season for the HettingerScranton volleyball team. Playing their last game for the Nighthawks were seniors Kayla Chadwick, HaLea Mehrer, Katelyn Turner, Lizzy Thompson, Tara Dillon and Calli Miller.
SEMIFINALS » FROM PAGE 1 the fourth. They converted the 2-point play and went up 20-0. The Night Hawks were driving before Hudson Pierce threw another interception. Senior running back Brandon Pierce put the Night Hawks on the board with a 28-yard touchdown pass from Hudson Pierce with less than a minute left. Though they converted the 2-point play on a Hudson Pierce run, the game was too far out of
reach. The North Prairie defense had just as much to do with the win as its offense. One week after holding Richardton/Taylor/ Hebron’s Denver Colgrove in check, they were able to bottle up each one of the three 1,000-yard rushers on the Night Hawk roster. The Night Hawks amassed only 58 yards. It’s an end to a Night Hawk season that saw them make the playoffs for the first time in the history

of the co-op. They went 5-1 in the region, and received a bye during the first week of the 9-man playoffs. The team also featured a star-studded rushing attack this year. Seniors Brandon Pierce, Tanner Sanford and sophomore Isaiah Kludt each ran for over 1,000 yards in the season. The team showed resiliency after injuries forced some key players out for a significant time. Senior quarterback Braxon Yates missed significant time with a head injury before being lost for the season with a knee injury during the playoffs, and junior linebacker Alec Andress spent most of the season on the sidelines nursing a back injury. Heading into next season the team will be missing a big presence on the offensive line and defensive line as Colbey Steeke is a graduating senior. Other seniors graduating include Sanford, Yates, B. Pierce, Devin Faller, Logan Lachowitzer and Samuel Kludt. Game Stats: (Rushing) Hettinger/Scranton—B. Pierce 8-34, Sanford 5-14, I. Kludt 6-10, H. Pierce 2-10.

Sports By Sheldon Christenson For The Record Well, the 2015 fall high sports season for the Hettinger-Scranton teams are finished and I would have to say it was filled with excitement and improvement. The Night Hawk football team made the semifinals in 9-Man football for the first time, one win away from playing in the state championship game. Unfortunately a good football team from North Prairie ended their season with a 20-8 victory. The volleyball team improved significantly over 2014 and reached the quarterfinals of the region tournament.
The cross country team saw their numbers double and also performed better than the previous year. Earning first team AllRegion 5 honors on the Night Hawk football team were Colbey Steeke, Brandon Pierce, Tanner Sanford, Isaiah Kludt and Seth Olson, At-Large. On the second team was Andrew Sulzman and Ethan Dupper, At-Large. Coach Randy Burwick was named Coach of the Year and Steeke was name Lineman of the Year. It is now on to boys and girls basketball and wrestling and I believe all will have great upcoming seasons. Let’s hope injuries and unexpected players not going out for a team don’t impair any of the teams. First scheduled match for the wrestling team is a triangular at Hettinger on
Dec. 3. The girls basketball team gets started on Dec. 8 as they are in the Killdeer Roughrider tournament at Killdeer Dec. 8, 10 & 12. Boys basketball season starts on Dec. 11 & 12 with games at Linton. Harding County’s football team is in the South Dakota State Championship game on Nov. 13 versus Langford Area. Their volleyball team is taking on Lemmon on Nov. 10 in the Region 8 finals with the winner going to state. Hettinger-Scranton played both of those teams this season, beating Lemmon 3-0 and losing to Harding Co. 3-2. FINAL REGION 7 VOLLEYBALL STANDINGS 1. Dickinson Trinity 11-0 (26-9) 2.

Weekly Vikings Roundup By Jordan Wright For The Record
Don’t look now, but the Minnesota Vikings are tied with the Green Bay Packers atop the NFC North. After squeaking by the St. Louis Rams 21-18 on Sunday the Vikings improved to 6-2. Combine that with a Green Bay loss to Carolina, and all of a sudden the upcoming game between these two teams has gotten a lot more interesting. Adrian Peterson was the star of this game. Peterson carried the ball 29 times for 125 yards and a touchdown, and also caught a couple passes for an additional 18 yards. In the fourth quarter and overtime, when the game was close, Peterson touched the ball 11 times for 65 yards. For all the talk about the Ram’s rookie running back Todd Gurley, it was Peter-
son who shined brightest on this day. Something tells me Peterson didn’t want to be out done by the rookie, especially on his home turf. Peterson did have a couple fumbles, but luckily the team was able to overcome them. As my grandpa told me after the game, “this is the first time I’ve seen Adrian look like Adrian all season.” Teddy Bridgewater was knocked out in the fourth quarter by a dirty hit while he was sliding to the turf. In a move that shocked no one, a defense led by Defensive Coordinator Gregg Williams took a cheap shot on the opposing quarterback. If the name Gregg Williams sounds familiar, it should. He was the defensive coordinator of the New Orleans Saints who took multiple cheap shots at Brett Favre in the NFC Championship game in 2009. Williams was later found to be guilty of putting “bounties” out on opposing teams, essentially paying his players for each injury they caused. During his post-game presser, Mike Zimmer called the
hit a “cheap shot”, and even said “If we were on the street, we probably would have had a fight” in regards to Gregg Williams. The player of the game is Linval Joseph, a player who doesn’t get nearly the amount of attention he deserves. Coming into this game against the Rams, Joseph was Pro Football Focus’ seventh best rated interior defender. Linval has been an anchor on the defensive line, and this might have been his best game of the season. The position he plays dictates that Joseph takes on two blockers most plays, freeing up the rest of the defense to take advantage of their one on one matchups. He might not get much attention from the national media, but he’s this week’s player of the week. This was a tough week to pinpoint the player who needs the most improvement. But after re-watching the game, Harrison Smith was a ghost. In a game that was mostly running plays and short passes, Harrison should have had a great day statistical-
ly. Unfortunately for Harry the Hitman, he was mostly quiet. Besides sharing a tackle with Linval Joseph, Harrison Smith only had a quarterback hit beside his name in the stat sheet (according to ESPN). Rookie wide receiver Stefon Diggs (1) was even credited with more tackles than Smith! Looking ahead, the Vikings play the Oakland Raiders on Sunday, Nov. 15. This game will be at 3:05 p.m., unlike most Vikings games that start at noon. Oakland is a team who is vastly improved from the Oakland teams of recent memory. Offensively, the Raiders are led by the up and coming quarterback/wide receiver duo of Derek Carr and Amari Cooper. Defensively, the Raiders have a good mix of youth and veteran leadership with players like Khalil Mack and Charles Woodson. If the Vikings get Teddy back in time for this game, it will be a competitive game between two up and coming teams. I might be a little biased, but I’m taking the Vikings in this one.

Thunder Spirit’s first wind turbines begin generating electricity
The first of 43 turbines at ALLETE Clean Energy’s Thunder Spirit wind farm has begun generating renewable energy at the installation being constructed north of Hettinger, North Dakota. The first turbine went online Oct. 21 and was followed quickly by four more. ALLETE Clean Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of ALLETE Inc., (NYSE:ALE) is building the 107-Megawatt wind farm which is expected to be completed in December. The installation near Hettinger, N.D., and its energy output—enough to power about 30,000 homes—will be sold to Montana-Dakota Utilities. When completed, Thunder Spirit will consist of 43 Nordex N100 wind turbines, which were shipped from the German wind equipment manufacturer via
the Saint Lawrence Seaway into the Port of Duluth, Minn., and then trucked to the construction site. Eric Norberg, President of ALLETE Clean Energy, cited the working relationship with MDU, in part, for the success of the project. “MDU has been a strong and collaborative partner as we work together to bring this project to commercial operation,” said Norberg. About 17 miles of new roads have been built and 25 miles of underground cable will be used to collect power for transmission. At peak construction, more than 200 contract employees were at work across the 10,000 acres of land included within the wind farm’s perimeter. Thunder Spirit’s proximity to the Montana-Dakota transmission system enhances the projects deliverability of

power to MDU’s customers. “Having the first turbines produce power is a huge milestone. We’re excited that the project continues to be on schedule for full production by the end of the year,” said Montana-Dakota President and CEO Nicole Kivisto. “The partnership with ACE has been very good and we look forward to Thunder Spirit Wind becoming part of our generation portfolio and providing affordable power to our customers for many years to come.” Community members, government representatives, utility executives and contractors were on hand in August for an event where they signed their names on one of the 160-foot fiberglass wind blades that eventually will be hoisted into place where it will turn steady North Dakota breezes into electricity.
ACE operates wind generation facilities in Minnesota, Iowa, Oregon and Pennsylvania. ACE was established in 2011 to acquire or develop capital projects to create energy solutions by way of wind, solar, biomass, hydro, natural gas, shale resources, clean coal technology and other emerging energy innovations. ALLETE, Inc. is an energy company headquartered in Duluth, Minnesota. In addition to its electric utilities, Minnesota Power and Superior Water, Light and Power of Wisconsin, ALLETE owns ALLETE Clean Energy, based in Duluth, BNI Coal in Center, North Dakota, U.S. Water Services in St. Michael, Minnesota, and has an eight percent equity interest in the American Transmission Co.
