BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota might soon see its first measurable snowfall of the season, though it won’t amount to much.

The National Weather Service forecast calls for a chance of snow in the northwest and central parts of the state overnight into Saturday.

Meteorologist Bill Abeling says a snow line is expected to stretch from Williston to Minot, along and north of U.S. Highway 2, to the Canadian border. He says accumulations of less than an inch are expected, however.

Jamestown (CSi) A gathering of family and friends of the late, Jim Carlascio honored him on Friday afternoon, at the First Street West Bridge in Jamestown to unveil and dedicate a monument in his honor.

The bridge over the James River is now officially the James A. Carlascio Memorial Bridge.

Master of Ceremonies, Dwaine Heinrich, open the program, with the Welcome by Jamestown Mayor Katie Andersen.

Also delivering remarks were Stutsman County Commission Chairman Mark Klose, former Mayor Charlie Kourajian, and Jim’s son, Mark Carlascio.

Charlie and Mark participated in the Dedication and Unveiling of the Monument at the bridge.

The program was organized by the Jim Carlascio Bridge Committee, and members North Dakota Senator, John Grabinger, City Council Member Dan Buchanan, and former Jamestown City Council Member, Dwaine Heinrich.

The program noted the children of Jim and Dorothy Carlascio,

Pam Carlascio, Kathleen Carlascio, James Carlascio, and Mark Carlascio.

The program closed with remarks by Dwaine Heinrich.

The Jamestown City Council had approved a Resolution earlier this year, designating the bridge crossing the James River at First Street West be known as the James A. Carlascio Memorial Bridge.

At the City Council meeting, on June 6, 2016, John Grabinger said that he and Dwaine Heinrich, along with Council Member Buchanan proposed the idea, in part because the bridge was replaced through the lead efforts of Jim Carlascio, “The Mayor of the West End.”

Carlascio was a National Elks Veteran in 1993. He was named Jamestown Outstanding Citizen in 2008. In 2009 he received North Dakota Hometown Hero Award.

He was also a soldier in WWII and participated in a significant assault that occurred on June 6th, 1944.

Jim was also a leader in organizing the Veterans Wall, at Ft. Seward in Jamestown.

Jim was known as the “Mayor of the West End,” of Jamestown, and was a leader in promoting the replacement bridge on First Street West, the original structure removed to alleviate flooding concerns in the late 1990’s.

Jim expressed his concerns and those of others, that not having the bridge, meant only one access over the river, on Second Street Southwest, and making it more difficult to access the west area across the river by first responders and others, and endangering lives and property, and inconveniencing motorists.

As the community knows Jim, was on hand at nearly every Jamestown parade.

Jim passed away on July 11, 2013 at the age of 88.

Remembering James Carlascio – WW II POW

Friday’s Dedication and Unveiling of the Monument was recorded by CSi 10 The Replay Channel, with showings starting Friday, along with the original bridge dedication video.

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) — A sixth pipeline company has applied for a permit to become a part of the growing Dakota Access pipeline project. The Williston Herald reports that if it’s approved, it would add 30,000 barrels of oil to the four-state pipeline, meaning it’d be the largest in the Bakken oil formation with 470,000 to 570,000 barrels daily. Some companies have already begun construction projects to connect to the Dakota Access pipeline, which is the target of legal action by the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.

WILLISTON, N.D. (AP) — Williston State College is extending a program that offers free tuition to graduates from high schools in the region and has helped push the small two-year school to record enrollments.

The college began the scholarship program two years ago to increase the number of professionals such as nurses and accountants needed in the booming oil patch. It was funded mainly by $1 million from the Alva J. Field Memorial Trust and $500,000 from the state.

The school says the trust is committing another $800,000 to the program, and the North Dakota Higher Education Challenge Fund is adding another $400,000. The program will continue until money runs out.

The program so far has awarded $800,000 to 428 students, helping push the school to record enrollments. Students must meet certain requirements.

In world and national news…

MIAMI (AP) — The top winds of Hurricane Matthew are now clocked at 115 miles an hour as the storm moves off the coast of northeastern Florida. It’s still threatening such historic cities as Savannah, Georgia, and Charleston, South Carolina. Forecasters said 15 inches of rain and a storm surge of up to 9 feet were possible in places. About 500,000 people were told to evacuate the Jacksonville area, and another half-million were under orders to clear out in Georgia.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The government is keeping Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump informed about its response to Hurricane Matthew. Homeland Security Secretary Jeh (jay) Johnson and the deputy administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency briefed the candidates by phone Friday. Both candidates have issued statements and sent out tweets expressing concern about the storm and urging residents affected by it to be careful.

NEW YORK (AP) — Donald Trump says it’s “outrageous” that the original suspects in one of New York’s most notorious crimes were exonerated after someone else confessed to the attack. Five black teen were charged in 1989 with beating and raping a young woman jogging through Central Park. The suspects were known as “The Central Park Five.” They were convicted in a racially charged case based on confessions they said were coerced. But in 2002, another man confessed and DNA evidence matched him to the crime scene. The original suspects were released and were paid $41 million by New York State. Trump told CNN this week that he condemned the settlement, declaring “they admitted they were guilty.”

UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Russia says it will veto a French-drafted U.N. resolution calling for a cease-fire in Aleppo and the grounding of all aircraft over the Syrian city. Russia’s U.N. ambassador says the Security Council should instead support a demand by a U.N. envoy for a militant faction to leave Aleppo in exchange for a halt to Russian and Syrian government bombardment. France’s foreign minister says at the current rate, “Aleppo will be totally destroyed by Christmas.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Secretary of State John Kerry is hailing Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos, the winner of this year’s Nobel Peace Prize. Kerry praised Santos “for his courageous efforts to try to bring peace to Colombia.” Santos was recognized for his efforts to end a civil war that has killed more than 200,000 Colombians since the 1960s.
