Jamestown (Chamber) The chamber Young Professionals of Jamestown and the Chamber Ambassadors recently recognized Bank Insure Tax Invest Forward as the November Business of the Month Award recipient for their outstanding customer service and continued commitment to the community.
Their nomination stated, “Bank Forward and all their various Forward entities here in town do a fabulous job. They really stepped up in this last year to help local small businesses like me through the process of applying for and getting forgiveness for COVID related funds. I didn’t think my business would have qualified, but they actually pointed it out to me and helped me apply. I would not have pursued it or known about it if it wasn’t for them. I’m sure all our local financial institutions did a great job helping the community through this process, but Bank Forward employees went above and beyond. I’m so thankful I bank with them. They helped save my business!”
The Jamestown Area Chamber of Commerce honors businesses that provide superior customer service, exhibit community spirit and provide a positive economic impact to the community. This award provides recognition throughout the month with a plaque and a recognition banner for the month.

Jamestown (NDFU) – North Dakota Farmers Union (NDFU), the state’s largest farm organization, will kick off its 95th annual state convention Friday, Dec. 10, at the Bismarck Event Center.

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — The state Board of Medicine brought 11 formal disciplinary actions against North Dakota doctors this year. The number includes three sanctions that resulted in physicians losing their license to practice in the state. Figures show the number of disciplinary actions in 2021 was two fewer than the previous year, but matched the annual tally in 2018 and 2019. Alcohol-related incidents typically make up the bulk of the board’s sanctions. Doctors in the state also were disciplined for such things as incompetence, unethical behavior, substandard care, and criminal offenses. The group reviews up to 120 cases against doctors annually.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) — North Dakota health officials say the rate of flu vaccinations for children continues to decline. The state Department of Health says that 13,000 fewer dozes of influenza vaccine have been administered to children this fall compared to the same time last year. That’s on the heels of an 8% decline in the number of shots in the 2020-21 season. State Health Officer Dr. Nizar Wehbi says children are especially vulnerable to the flu, which is spread through coughs, sneezes, shared saliva and the touching of contaminated surfaces. The severity of the disease can range from mild to deadly. Health officials recommend that anyone older than six months of age be vaccinated against the flu.

NFL Thanksgiving Day Football

Greg Zuerlein (ZUR’-lyn) tied it for Dallas with a field goal in the final minute of regulation.
The Raiders racked up over 500 yards of total offense, with quarterback Derek Carr completing 24 of 39 passes for 365 yards and a TD. Josh Jacobs carried 22 times for 87 yards and a score for the 6-5 Raiders, who hadn’t scored more than 16 points while dropping their previous three games.

In world and national news…
BRUSSELS (AP) — The European Union is planning to stop air travel from southern Africa to counter the spread of a new COVID-19 variant as the 27-nation bloc is battling a massive spike in cases. German Health Minister Jens Spahn said that “the last thing we need is to bring in a new variant that will cause even more problems.” A new coronavirus variant has been detected in South Africa that scientists say is a concern because of its high number of mutations and rapid spread among young people in Gauteng, the country’s most populous province.
GENEVA (AP) — Advisers to the World Health Organization are holding a special session to flesh out information about a worrying new variant of the coronavirus that has been detected in South Africa, though its impact on COVID-19 vaccines may not be known for weeks. The technical advisory group on the evolution of COVID-19 was meeting virtually to discuss the so-called B.1.1.529 variant that has caused stock markets to swoon and led the European Union to recommend a pause in flights to southern Africa. The group could decide if it’s a “variant of concern” — the most worrying type, like the well-known delta variant — or a “variant of interest,” and whether to use a Greek letter to classify it.
BEIJING (AP) — Global stocks and oil prices have tumbled after South Africa found a fast-spreading coronavirus variant and the European Union proposed suspending air travel from southern Africa. London’s benchmark fell 3.3% at the opening and Tokyo lost 2.5%. Shanghai, Frankfurt and Hong Kong also declined. Wall Street futures fell. Some European countries already tightened anti-virus controls this week after their own case numbers spiked. Britain banned flights from South Africa and five nearby countries. Benchmark U.S. crude fell $4.52 to $73.87 per barrel. Brent crude lost $3.65 to $77.27 per barrel in London.
NEW YORK (AP) — Retailers are expected to usher in the unofficial start to the holiday shopping season Friday with bigger crowds than last year in a closer step toward normalcy. But the fallout from the pandemic continues to weigh on businesses and shoppers’ minds. Buoyed by solid hiring, healthy pay gains and substantial savings, customers are returning to stores and splurging on all types of items. But the spike has also resulted in limited selection across the board as suppliers and retailers have been caught flat-footed. Shortages of shipping containers and truckers have helped to delay deliveries, while inflation continues to creep. The combination of higher prices and lack of inventory could make for a less festive mood.
JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel’s prime minister says it is “on the threshold of an emergency situation” after authorities detected the country’s first case of a new coronavirus variant in a traveler who returned from Malawi. The Health Ministry says the traveler and two other suspected cases, all of whom were vaccinated, have been placed in isolation. A new coronavirus variant has been detected in South Africa that scientists say is a concern because of its high number of mutations and rapid spread among young people in Gauteng, the country’s most populous province. Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett says the new strain is more contagious than the delta variant.
BERLIN (AP) — The German air force will begin assisting the transfer of intensive care patients Friday as the government warned that the situation in the country is more serious than at any point in the pandemic. Citing the sharp rise in cases, Health Minister Jens Spahn said contacts between people need to be sharply reduced to curb the spread of the virus. Spahn said Germany was having to organize large-scale transfers of patients within the country for the first time since the outbreak began in early 2020. The country’s disease control agency said 76,414 newly confirmed cases were reported in the past 24 hours. The Robert Koch Institute, a government agency, said Germany also had 357 new deaths from COVID-19, taking the cumulative total to 100,476.
