WILL MAC AND HARM BE BACK IN A NEW JAG?

QUESTION: Will David James Elliott and Catherine Bell make future appearances on NCIS: Los Angeles? I still miss JAG and I'm sure many others do too.

Their final scene in the Sept.

29 episode left me with two possible interpretations. — Tom MATT ROUSH: I'm sure you're far from alone. They obviously left the door open for either more appearances from Harm and Mac, or even a JAG reboot/spinoff -- which would take the franchise full circle, since NCIS originally spun off from JAG way back in 2003. Nothing has been announced, whether more guest shots as a backdoor pilot or an actual revival, but given the response, I'd be surprised if this is the last we've seen of them.

QUESTION: Tiffany Haddish is perfect in ABC's hilarious Kids Say The Darndest Things, and of course those adorable kids! I have a feeling this will not just become a huge hit for ABC but possibly a long- running one.

Thank you for the recommendation! —Fred MATT ROUSH: The early ratings certainly suggest the Kids reboot could be in for the long haul. Tiffany appears to be having a blast, which can be hard to resist, although as the premiere went on — an hour is an awful lot — I found myself wishing the kids on the stage weren't already so convinced how darned funny they were. But as tried- and-true formats go, this is probably a keeper.

Classic TV Halloween Episodes

By Kellie B. Gormly ReMIND Magazine

We might watch a lot of classic horror films during the Halloween season, like Night of the Living Dead, Psycho and Friday the 13th. Enjoy the October cinematic scares, but don't forget to include episodes of your favorite old television shows in your viewing lineup.

Many of our beloved sitcoms included at least one Halloweenthemed episode during their run.

Hilarity ensues when trick-or-treat night intersects with the witty bickering, slapstick comedy, absurdities and mishaps we enjoy in every episode.

Except for the unaired pilot, the inherently Halloweenish series about a family of funny monsters makes its fitting debut with a Halloween theme.

The Munsters are invited to a masquerade, and come in quirky Halloween costumes. But, when the hosts discover Herman's face underneath his armor suit, they mistake it for a mask.

Who could blame them, with Herman's green Frankenstein head? As usual, Herman and Lily are completely oblivious to their effect on others.

Like the Munsters, every day is Halloween at the macabre, spooky Addams house. Imagine the surprise, then, of two robbers whom the Ad-

Darrin Stephens naively breathes a sigh of relief as his wife, the magical Samantha, agrees to a normal, mortal Halloween. But c'mon: You have two witches in the house, one of which is toddler Tabitha! She uses "wishcraft" to pull three goblinlike characters from a bedtime storybook into the real world. A comically disastrous trickor-treat ensues.

Fittingly, Bewitched had several memorable Halloween episodes -- including the second season's "Trick or Treat," where conniving mother-inlaw Endora turns Darrin into a werewolf. In the third season's "Twitch or Treat," the maniacally quirky Uncle Arthur stirs up trouble at the Stephens' Halloween party.

2 Minot (N.D.) Daily News, TRADING POST, October 29, 2019

News

Unclear on the Concept Jennifer Colyne Hall, 48, of Toney, Alabama, was distraught when she called the Limestone County Sheriff’s Office dispatch on Oct. 2, so officers were sent to call on her. Public information officer Steven Young told The News Courier the officers first approached Hall’s landlord, who told them she had been “acting strangely” and hinted she might be on drugs. When the officers spoke to Hall, she produced a clear bag from a baby wipes container and told them, “I want this dope tested” because she feared the methamphetamines in the bag had possibly been tainted with another drug.

Asked if she had consumed the drugs, Hall said she had, but couldn’t remember when. She was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance and was held at the Limestone County Jail.

Inexplicable

— A front-door camera in McDowell County, North Carolina, twice captured a bold loiterer on the home’s porch: a naked man. Sheriff’s officers arrested Denny Lynn Dover, 45, in early October after identifying him by his distinctive tattoos, The McDowell News reported.

Dover had visited the home in April and again on Oct. 3, when he attempted to break in. He was charged with firstdegree burglary and held on $50,000 bond. Dover isn’t new to a life of crime: He also has convictions for arson, drug possession, larceny, peeping and breaking in.

— The Louisville

Courier Journal reported that Knox County (Kentucky) Sheriff’s deputies arrested Barrett L. Sizemore, 48, of Heidrick, on Oct. 4 for theft of a “honey wagon” — a septic cleaning truck — in Barbourville. The truck went missing on Oct. 2, and authorities located it in a barn in Laurel County, not far from where Sizemore was arrested. He is being held on a $10,000 bond.

Unintended Consequences

— An unidentified 89year-old woman who has had previous trouble with trespassers on her remote property outside Piru, California, was hospitalized on Oct. 5 after her attempt to shoo away a group of nine people went wrong. After spotting the interlopers, she warned them away and fired two rounds from her rifle into a hillside to “emphasize her point,” Ventura County Sheriff’s Office Capt. Eric Buschow told the Los Angeles Times. As the group retreated, the woman pursued them in her pickup truck to be sure they were leaving and pointed her gun at them.

One man tried to talk with her, but she couldn’t hear him, so he opened the door of her truck and grabbed the gun barrel. “In the process,” Buschow said, “she fell out of the truck (and) unbeknownst to (the man), the truck was still in gear, so the rear wheel drove over her leg, continued to roll and went off a cliff.”

She was airlifted to a hospital with injuries to her ankle, and neither party wanted to press charges, so no arrests were made.

— An unidentified

OF THE

man in Phoenix became angry at his upstairs neighbors for making too much noise on Oct. 6. He first tried banging on their door around 11:20 p.m., but then returned to his apartment and fired several shots into his ceiling — one of which apparently ricocheted and hit him in the face, according to the Arizona Republic. Although no one else was injured, the shooter was taken to the hospital in extremely critical condition.

Overreactions

An apparent dispute over pigeons at Pershing Field in Jersey City, New Jersey, has resulted in Charles Lowy, 69, facing eight years in prison for reckless manslaughter, according to The Jersey Journal. In April 2018, Lowy stabbed former schoolteacher Anthony Bello, 77, to death after they argued about Lowy’s habit of feeding pigeons in the park. Lowy’s attorney called Bello the “mayor of the block” and said he was the aggressor in the altercation, and that Lowy had stabbed him in self-defense. Hudson County Superior Court Judge Sheila Venable sentenced Lowy on Oct. 4; he must serve at least 85 percent of his sentence.

Oops!

— Tina Springer, 44, was the passenger in a car driven

by Brent Parks, 79, as they stopped to let a train pass in

Weird

Enid, Oklahoma, on Oct. 3.

Parks’ yellow Labrador retriever chose that moment to jump from the back seat onto the center console, causing a .22 caliber handgun stored underneath to discharge and strike Springer in the left thigh. The Enid News & Eagle reported that Parks, whom Springer is a caretaker for, told police he doesn’t usually carry the weapon loaded. Springer was taken to a hospital for treatment.

— Homeowner Linda Taylor-Whitt of Lynwood, Illinois, and her family returned home from a birthday dinner on Oct. 5 to find “a wheel coming through my washroom ceiling” in an upstairs bathroom. TaylorWhitt, who lives about a mile from Lansing Municipal Airport, told the Chicago Tribune she “didn’t know what kind of wheel it was at first. I guessed it was an airplane wheel,” she said. But it was from a helicopter, according to Amy Summers of SummerSkyz Inc., a helicopter flight school in Lansing.

When Summers heard about the incident, she knew she’d found the ground-handling wheel she’d been missing, and called Taylor-Whitt to apologize. The wheel had apparently been left on one of the company’s helicopters during flight and fell off. Taylor-Whitt was relieved the damage wasn’t worse: “I am glad — thank you, Lord —

that it was a wheel instead of a plane because it could’ve been so bad.”

Bright Idea

Springfield, Missouri, authorities have come up with a clever campaign to curb pet waste in the downtown area, the Associated Press reported. Piles of dog poop are being tagged with recycled paper flags sporting messages such as: “Is this your turd?

‘Cuz that’s absurd,” and “This is a nudge to pick up the fudge.” The city noted it spends $7,500 a year to pick up 25 pounds of waste per week from downtown parks and parking lots.

Awesome!

Open your wallet: If you have enough scratch, you can buy a customized pair of Nike Air Max 97s dubbed “Jesus Shoes” from a Brooklyn, New York, company called MSCHF. Introduced online Oct. 8, the shoes have 60ccs of holy water from the Jordan River injected into the soles “so you can literally walk on water,” noted Cosmopolitan, a crucifix in the laces, red insoles harkening to Vatican traditions, and a Matthew 14:25 inscription.

They are also scented with frankincense and sport a godly white and light blue colorway. The Jesus Shoes originally sold for $1,425, but are now fetching anywhere from $2,000 to upwards of $11,000.

Least Competent Driver In downtown Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on Oct. 8, an unnamed elderly driver managed to flip her Honda Accord and injure herself, her passenger and several pedestrians while trying to ... parallel park. According to CTV News, as she tried to back into a parking spot, the driver accelerated, jumping the curb and slamming into an immigration office before coming to rest on the sidewalk. Vancouver Police Sgt. Aaron Roed called the incident “a strange accident” and wished all the injured “a speedy recovery.”

Chutzpah!

Sure, there are probably plenty of stolen goods for sale on Facebook Marketplace, but according to authorities in Oklahoma City, Vicki Treaster, 36, went big: She’s been charged with stealing a metal garage and posting it for sale for $1,500. Coincidentally, the original owner was browsing Marketplace when he saw Treaster’s ad, which included photos of two people taking his building apart, and notified police.

KOCO reported Treaster changed her story several times when questioned by police about how she came to own the building, according to court documents.

Treaster was charged in early October with grand larceny.

Review: Bosch and Ballard combine forces in "The Night Fire" BOOKREVIEWS

BY TERRY AND KIM KOVEL Halloween has a long history. It started in ancient times as a harvest festival called Samhain. The holiday has been celebrated in many different ways for centuries by people in Ireland and Great Britain. Over time, this day of the dead, or a time of angels, has been known as All Saints’ Day, All Hallows’ Eve and eventually Hallowe’en.

English immigrants brought the holiday to the United States in the 1850s, and the tradition of a costume party for adults began.

By the 1930s, Halloween intrick-or-treating, cluded with children who begged for candy and made jack-o’lanterns from pumpkins.

Pamela Lorenz, Minot, recently paid off the 20year mortgage on her Habitat for Humanity house. She is the first to pay off her mortgage.

Habitat for Humanity homeowner is first to pay off mortgage

Pamela Lorenz is obviously proud of every square inch of her southeast Minot home, from the garage she built, to the porch that is always nicely decorated for the holidays to her kitchen with its long counter.

She also now owns the home built by her and volunteers through Habitat for Humanity free and clear. She paid off the 20-year mortgage on the house in August, a few months early. “(Habitat for Humanity) is a godsend,” said Lorenz, who became a homeowner nearly 20 years ago. “I would not have my home without them.”

Hundreds of volunteers help to build a Habitat for Humanity home, which helps people with modest incomes become first time homeowners. The homes are sold at no profit and with no interest charged, according to information on the organization’s website. Roxy Volk, executive director of Northern Lights Chapter of Habitat for Humanity in Minot, said the volunteer help enables the organization to keep the cost of the homes reasonable.

People selected to become homeowners must also invest “sweat equity” by helping to build the house. Many homeowners also enlist the help of friends and family along with other volunteers.

Lorenz said the only thing she did not do was get on the roof and shingle, though she did most everything else.

Kyra Hansen, who is eagerly awaiting the day when she and her three children can move into the newest Habitat for Humanity home under construction, said there are other requirements for applicants. She submitted an application to become the newest Habitat for Humanity client. She was required to take classes on money management and one geared toward first time home buyers as well as to put in the required hours helping to build her house. Before she was chosen, a board looked at her credit score, current financial situation and other important factors that will make her a successful home owner.

‘It’s going to make a huge difference,” said Hansen. “I don’t think I’d ever be able to become a homeowner without it.”

Some 12 Habitat for Humanity homes have been built in Minot since the local affiliate of the national nonprofit organization began. Some of those who became homeowners for Habitat for Humanity moved away and a couple of the Habitat for Humanity homes were flooded. Volk said the organization hopes to enter into an arrangement with another qualified family that would move into one of the Habitat for Humanity homes that was vacated when a family moved away.

Lorenz is the first Habitat for Humanity homeowner to pay off her mortgage and own the home.

Her mortgage payments and others have gone into a revolving fund that is used to build more houses, according to the Habitat for Humanity website.

More information about the organization can be found at www.habitat.org

A rendering of downtown signage shows an example of the wayfinding project proposed by the City of Minot.

Minot City Council accepts wayfinding report

A signage plan to promote downtown and identify city destinations came to the Minot City Council Monday with a price tag that begins at nearly $158,000.

The council commissioned a signage study as part of the National Disaster Resilience Program, but actual funding for signs would need to come from other sources – possibly from groups outside city government. The council discussed phased-in signage but took no action Monday other than to accept the study report from Ackerman-Estvold.

The study was aimed at identifying locations for signs to direct traffic of various modes to downtown, starting at the outer periphery of the city and working inward. An economic development stakeholders group formed through the NDR program recommended wayfinding signs to serve as a development tool.

“If you look at any successful, vibrant, sustainably growing downtown, wayfinding signs is one of those critical, basic, initial and ongoing Only Seats Ozark Mountain Christmas sources of economic sustain- 4 Left! in Branson From able growth,” said John ZaNovember 2-8, 2019 7-Day Motor Coach to America’s $1,039 per kian, resilience program person Live Entertainment Capital!

Square Mall or the fairgrounds, and would serve both vehicular and pedestrian traffic. Additional signs for pedestrians would be placed along multi-use trails.

Tier 3 signs would be located in the downtown and consist of five types – district identity/gateway, vehicular destination, pedestrian kiosk, historical landmark and destination identification.

The report identified 92 sites for signs.

Zakian cautioned the council regarding the $157,975 cost estimate provided by Ackerman-Estvold. Looking at signage costs in other cities, spending could run higher and will depend on various factors in design of the signs, he said.

“But this gives you a baseline,” Zakian said. “I will tell you that based on 92 locations, and the number of signs in each of the tiers, it would be not inaccurate to say that the cost of signage could range anywhere from a baseline of $160,000 up to anywhere around $750,000.

“One of the key steps going forward is to make a decision on what should be on those signs, especially within the three tiers. Should there be a common logo? Should be a common message?” Zakian said. “The underlying question to be answered is, who is going to lead this? The second question is, where’s the funding going to come from? And third question is, who’s going to maintain them?”

Zakian said creation of a Business Improvement District downtown, which has ability to tax within its borders, could fund the project, as can a downtown nonprofit organization or economic development organization. Sometimes cities will provide funding, and often funding comes from a variety of sources, he said.

NDR grant money used for the wayfinding study was included in dollars set aside for planning, which is not a source of money for implementation of the study recommendations, Zakian explained.

Council member Josh Wolsky said it’s important the city take a holistic look at downtown and coordinate the activities occurring or being discussed.

“And then also, obviously, this tiered system that you see here, I think, lends itself very well to a phased approach,” Wolsky said. “Maybe this is a multi-year project.”

“It gives us an opportunity,” added council member Shannon Straight. “We have some huge financial challenges.

I don’t think any of us shy away from those. But a phased approach seems to make sense.”

Weather slows progress on flood protection project

North Dakota’s low unemployment rate is hindering contractors in playing catch-up on weather-delayed construction projects.

The loss of work days due to rain or snow in September and early October set back the work on the Mouse River Enhanced Flood Protection in Minot and Burlington. For contractors to make up for lost time would require putting more workers on the job, said Ryan Ackerman, administrator for the Souris River Joint Board, which is overseeing the flood protection project.

“There’s no labor to do the projects that need to be done,” Ackerman said of the difficulty in compressing the work into the limited time remaining before freeze-up. The wet weather is affecting projects regionally, not just in Minot, creating increased competition for a limited supply of available workers, he said.

Some construction projects also sit idle because ground remains saturated and it’s not possible to achieve the compaction necessary, Ackerman said. Those areas are waiting for warmer, windy weather for drying.

Despite the weather so far, the goal is to have the new Colton Avenue Bridge in Burlington open to traffic before freeze-up in November, Ackerman said. The deck has been poured and the contractor is working on the approaches.

The bridge project should be substantially complete before the end of the year, leaving landscaping elements to be finished next year.

Minot’s phase 1 segment of the flood protection project had been about six months behind schedule going into September. It now is about eight months behind.

The Broadway pump station was only modestly affected by the September weather, Ackerman said. The Fourth Avenue flood wall and utility work along Third Street are where Phase 1 saw more impact.

Phase 1 initially fell behind because of the need to relocate the Sundre water line for the Northwest Area Water Supply project. Due to changes in Canadian Pacific Railroad’s permitting requirements, permission to go under the railroad was delayed, setting back the line relocation, Ackerman said.

Flood protection phases 2 and 3, which were about six months ahead of schedule, now are about four months ahead, he said.

Sixteenth Street Southwest still has two of its four lanes closed in the project area, but the lanes are expected to open before the end of the year.
