Lloyd Omdahl: UND should give up its albatross gracefully
GRAND FORKS — While former UND basketball star Phil Jackson recommends that the university resolve the Fighting Sioux logo gracefully, the chance to be graceful is slipping away. Push is going to escalate to shove, and UND will not be on the pushing end.

COLUMNIST LLOYD OMDAHL: After 40 years, a four-lane highway
For me, this was the first trip when four lanes of U.S. Highway 2 were completed all across the state. Now that the highway has been four-laned, the truth can be told about its progress to completion, because this four-laning did not happen by itself.

COLUMNIST LLOYD OMDAHL: Home town druggists face uphill battle
Do you want some cheaper drugs, or do you want to save smaller communities and independent drug stores? Because it is an immediate personal pocketbook issue, cheaper drugs will carry the day, and the law will be repealed.

LLOYD OMDAHL: Energy challenge creates 'fail-safe'
If the Earth holds its breath until the United States takes the lead in tackling the energy crisis, it will die of asphyxiation. As the biggest glutton in the world energy market, the United States never will find it to its economic interest to curb energy consumption.

Return WSI to governor’s control in N.D.
Legislators are having a hard time coming to terms with the situation they created when they shifted control of the workers compensation agency from the governor to a board whose members have a vested interest in that agency. The shift took public accountability out of the picture.

COLUMNIST LLOYD OMDAHL: Start thinking about 2011 redistricting
Californians fed up with 50 years of Democratic gerrymandering in legislative apportionment have initiated a measure for the November election that would take the 2010 reapportionment away from the Legislature and give it to an independent 14-member commission. A similar proposal was defeated in 2005.

LLOYD OMDAHL COLUMN: I'll never forget old ... old ...
“Forget it” is an expression never used in nursing homes. It would be superfluous. If you could remember, you wouldn’t be there. Nursing homes are havens for people who have forgotten it. It’s sad. Just when they learned enough to get by, they can’t remember it.

LLOYD OMDAHL COLUMN: N.D. Supreme Court erred in traffic case
State legislatures often make mistakes. Some people believe the U. S. Supreme Court is wrong all of the time. Congress passes laws with pages missing. Therefore, it should not be civic heresy to allege that the North Dakota Supreme Court was wrong in ruling that home rule cities may not impose traffic fines that exceed those prescribed in the general laws of the state.
