Dickinson Press readers deserve apology; Scouts serve, protect youth

Flag represents every part of our country
I would like to talk about our American flag in this article. On June 14, 1777, Congress passed an act stating “That the flag of the 13 United States be 13 stripes, alternate red and white, that the union be 13 stars, white in a blue field, representing a new constellation.”By George Nodland , June 14, 2012

The gift of shade and more
When I was a kid my parents had a comfy green living room chair, like a throne, that had arms so fat I could set an 8 1/2-by-11 inch tablet on it and draw for hours on end. That chair was not only my personal art studio; it was also my little world.By Kevin Holten , May 16, 2012

Here's to the inventors of tailgating
Now, if you’re like me, you probably think of “tailgating” as a more recent phenomenon, created by “thick-waisted” drinkers and blatant overeaters who attend college and professional football games, but sometimes don’t even make it into the game itself.By Kevin Holten , April 11, 2012
Enjoyable concert in a North Dakota pond
I went for a horseback ride Sunday and ended up at a concert. That’s right, on a day that started out quite normal, with us putting sweet feed into large bowls to lure the horses into a corral, not wanting to chase them all over the pasture, we saddled up and headed south, riding into another unusually warm first day of April, with a brisk breeze at our backs.By Kevin Holten , April 04, 2012
Holding the world together
Just what is it that is holding the world together? Is it governments, religion, unions, fraternities, armies, the police and the mafia? Or is it Facebook and Twitter?By By Kevin Holten , March 14, 2012

Relying on a rodent
Tomorrow is that big day when we all rely on a rodent, a groundhog, from Punxsutawney, Pa., to tell us what the rest of the winter is going to be like.By By Kevin Holten , February 01, 2012
