WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is opening COVID-19 vaccine boosters to all adults, and urging them for anyone 50 and older. The decision Friday seeks to simplify what has been a confusing list of who’s eligible. Now for anyone 18 or older, the only requirement is to be at least six months past their last dose of a Pfizer or Moderna vaccine or two months past the single-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine. The government is trying to get ahead of rising coronavirus cases that experts fear could snowball into a winter surge with upcoming holiday travel.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — A federal appeals court has largely upheld a North Dakota law aimed at regulating companies that are hired to hold down prescription costs for insurers and employers. The 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled on Wednesday, reversing its earlier decision on the state law that provides oversight of pharmacy benefit managers. The law bars such things as gag rules that limit what pharmacists can discuss with their patients. Pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs, negotiate with drug makers on behalf of health insurers, employers and unions that cover medications.
DENVER (AP) — President Joe Biden has appointed former Colorado House Speaker KC Becker as regional director of the Environmental Protection Agency. The Colorado Sun reports that Becker’s appointment was announced Thursday by the White House. Becker, an environmental attorney, served four terms in the Colorado Legislature and was House speaker for two terms, from 2019 to January 2021. She was a leading proponent of a 2019 bill, now law, that overhauled Colorado’s oil and gas regulations to promote environmental and public safety concerns. Becker also practiced administrative and natural resources law for the U.S. Interior Department. She will be based in Denver.

amestown (CSi) Seven members of the 11A state champion Jamestown Blue Jays have been named to the All-WDA team as voted on by the coaches.
They include, Thomas Allmer, Devin Beach, Ethan Gall, Adam Kallenbach, Preston Kroeber, Colton Mewes, and Jackson Walters.
Allmer scored his only touchdown in his career on a scoop-and-score in the 11A title game. That touchdown ended up being the game-winning score for Jamestown.
Juniors Gall, Mewes, and Walters all played a major role on the defense for Jamestown during the state championship run. As a team, the Blue Jays gave up an average of 12 points per game.
Kallenbach and Kroeber, two seniors, were dominant on both sides of the ball en route to All-WDA honor
In world and national news
KENOSHA, Wis. (AP) — Kyle Rittenhouse has been acquitted of all charges after pleading self-defense in the deadly Kenosha, Wisconsin, shootings that became a flashpoint in the nation’s debate over guns, vigilantism and racial injustice. The jury came back with its verdict afer close to 3 1/2 days of deliberation. Rittenhouse, 18, could have gotten life in prison if found guilty of the most serious charge against him. He was charged with homicide, attempted homicide and recklessly endangering safety for killing two men and wounding a third with an AR-style semi-automatic rifle. The shootings took place during a night of protests over police violence against Black people in the tumultuous summer of 2020. Rittenhouse is white, as were those he shot. The jury appeared to be overwhelmingly white.
AURORA, Colo. (AP) — Colorado police say 3 people have been shot in the parking lot of a high school in a Denver suburb and that the school is on lockdown. The Aurora Police Department said in a tweet that two of those who were shot outside Hinkley High School were taken to a hospital and a third got there on their own. The shooting came after six students from another Aurora high school suffered gunshot injuries Monday at a park near their school. Police didn’t immediately respond to requests for more details about Friday’s shooting. The two schools are about three miles apart. No arrests have been made in the Monday shooting.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. is moving to open up COVID-19 booster shots to all adults, letting them choose another dose of either the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine. Regulators authorized broader use of the shots Friday, seeking to simplify what has been a confusing list of who’s eligible. But the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has to agree before tens of millions more Americans qualify, The agency’s scientific advisers voted in support of the move. The U.S. government is trying to get ahead of rising coronavirus cases that experts fear could snowball into a winter surge with upcoming holiday travel.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court could rule as soon as Monday on Texas’ ban on abortion after roughly six weeks. The court said on its website Friday that the justices are planning to issue at least one opinion Monday, the first of its new term. There’s no guarantee the two cases over the Texas law will be resolved then. But the court put the Texas cases on a rarely used fast track and Monday is probably the last chance to decide them before the justices hear arguments Dec. 1 in another abortion case.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — A judge has convicted a white Kansas City police officer of involuntary manslaughter and armed criminal action in the fatal shooting of a Black man in a case in which prosecutors said police planted evidence. Jackson County Judge Dale Youngs issued the verdict Friday against Officer Eric J. DeValkenaere in the death of 26-year-old Cameron Lamb, who was parking a pickup truck in his backyard when he was shot Dec. 3, 2019. DeValkenaere said he fired after Lamb pointed a gun at another detective. But prosecutors argued that police staged the scene to support their claims that Lamb was armed. The judge presided over a bench trial, instead of a jury trial, at DeValkenaere’s request.
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — A jury began deliberations Friday in a civil trial of white nationalists accused of conspiring to commit racially motivated violence at the deadly “Unite the Right” rally in Charlottesville in 2017. The jury in U.S. District Court is being asked to decide whether two dozen white supremacists, neo-Nazis and white nationalist organizations are responsible for violence during two days of demonstrations. Jurors will also decide if the defendants are liable for compensatory and punitive damages for nine people who were physically hurt or emotionally scarred by the violence. Just before deliberations began Friday morning, Judge Norman Moon said one juror was dismissed because his two children were possibly exposed to COVID-19 at school and were told to quarantine at home.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — A St. Louis couple who waved guns at demonstrators outside their home are seeking to keep their law licenses by arguing they were protecting their property from a violent mob. Mark and Patricia McCloskey made that argument in their response to a complaint seeking to have their law licenses suspended. They contend some of the protesters marching past their home in June 2020 shouted death, rape and arson threats at them. Special prosecutor Richard Callahan has said his investigation determined the protesters were peaceful. The couple pleaded guilty to misdemeanors but were later pardoned by Gov. Mike Parson. The state’s chief disciplinary counsel has recommended the Missouri Supreme Court indefinitely suspend the McCloskeys’ law licenses.
