TOM MILLER: The tables have turned for Red River in Cushman Classic 
Vyrn Muir took over as head coach at Grand Forks Red River in the fall of 2004. He didn’t win a game that first season. In the 2004 Cushman Classic, Grand Forks Central’s Ryan Chappell ran wild on the Roughriders in a game the Knights led 40-0 at halftime.

ANN BAILEY: Farm home full of character, but not always cool
Most days, I wouldn’t trade our 101-year-old house for a new one. The history, character and workmanship would be difficult, if not impossible, to duplicate and it holds many irreplaceable memories.

MARILYN HAGERTY: Crows buzz bomb poor Dot.com
Dear Shirley,
Never mind the rabbits that zip around the corner of the house. Never mind the coyotes that have been getting closer to civilization this summer.
It’s the crows that are driving me crazy.

Matters at Hand: North Dakota should find away to honor the Sioux
Last week North Dakotans accepted the inevitable and voted to retire UND’s Fighting Sioux nickname and logo. The Minneapolis Star-Tribune rather condescendingly congratulated voters on their wisdom.
Well! Thanks for that.

OUR OPINION: Six hundred and twenty thousand
Suppose America went to war.Suppose that at the end of the war, every person in North Dakota lay dead.Carnage on that scale is too jarring even to imagine. But for a few moments today, Memorial Day, remember that the United States has endured violence on not only that scale, but worse.

JEFF TIEDEMAN: 'The Boot' had the best spinach in town
What I remember best about the Bronze Boot was the delicious spinach salad that came with your meal. There never was any question about what kind of salad Therese or I would order with our dinner. The salad was so good that the only place in town where I can find a better bowl of greens is at our house.

RYAN BAKKEN: All you can eat, free ice cream
If you enjoy ice cream, Cavalier is the place to be June 9. I can guarantee two things: 1) the price (free) is right; and 2) you’ll be able to eat all you want. Everyone’s invited. A free dessert buffet? That’s tough to beat.

PRAIRIE GARDENER: Garden tomatoes are a summer treasure
There’s nothing quite like a plump, juicy summer-ripened tomato from the garden. While the first tomato always is slow to ripen, we usually end up with abundance of these luscious red orbs of summer by late August. Then all too soon, Jack Frost comes and the curtain falls on another tomato season.
