    Magic City Harley Davidson has been in Minot for more than 10 years...and it now has new ownership. Bill and Brenda Houim took over the business early in September -- turning a hobby into a business venture.

The security of your home, your possessions...and yourself is obviously important -- so why not add as much security as possible? That is what ProControls Midwest and TJ Stewart can offer. Garage doors, entry doors, windows...everything is monitored with this wireless home protection system they offer.

You might think the cost would be high -- but not really -- once you have it purchased and installed, you are looking at about 25 bucks a month for constant security...Stewart says customers seem to be pleased with the finished product...

(TJ Stewart - ProControls Midwest) "They are very happy and what makes them happier is that it is low cost -- the monthly fees are very affordable -- and they are secure and the system itself is easy to use...user friendly."

Installation usually takes less than a day -- and the workings are pretty basic once installed. With questions you can call toll free at 800-259-4505. ProControls also offers plumbing services as well.

Finally - no news on the fate of Sears and K-Mart locations in North Dakota. This week, the retailers announced that after poor showings during the holiday season, there would be a large number of store closures. The number leaked has been about 120 Sears and K-Marts may be on the chopping block after Sears Holdings Corp struggled this year. That company runs both Sears and K-Mart.
