The Republican governor acknowledged in a Thanksgiving statement that the state still has a long way to go in containing the spread of the virus, saying \u201ca week of improved results does not make a trend.\u201d Health experts have warned that holiday gatherings could lead to a surge of infections.

A debut art installation by Virginia-based artist Patty Swygert opens at the National Buffalo Museum on Friday, November 27<sup>th<\/sup>, with a virtual opening reception and artist talk on December 4<sup>th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p>The Museum\u2019s Curator of Collections, Rachel Johnson, on Wednesday\u2019s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2, said, Swygert is a conceptual and visual sculptor and fiber artist. Her installation, <em>I AM BISON,<\/em> uses paint, ink, earth pigments, soil, dyes, thread and yarn on paper, fabric, and found objects, to offer glimpses of the iconic National Mammal, from prehistory through present day. The installation features nearly 30 two- and three-dimensional works created by Swygert specifically for the National Buffalo Museum\u2019s space.<\/p>\n<p>Rachel added, \u201cWhen Patty contacted us after she participated in our juried art show, <em>Bison in Art 2019, <\/em>to propose creating this immersive exhibit, we were thrilled. It is exciting to have an artist of this caliber creating work for the museum and bringing attention to the story of the bison\u2019s ongoing restoration.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Asked what inspired her about this project, Swygert said, \u201cI love stories, especially those which feature an underdog and involve numbers. The story of the bison has both of those characteristics. From the first animals which crossed into North America from Asia, bison flourished until millions roamed the continent for perhaps millions of years before being reduced to fewer than 1,000 animals in just a few decades and then brought back from the brink of extinction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Swygert\u2019s work has been exhibited locally, nationally, and internationally. Individual pieces range in size from micro sculptures less than 2 inches to room-sized installations. She works in various media including concrete, led lights, paper, fabric, fiber, metal, wood, stone, glass, and repurposed and found objects. Often experiential and interactive, tactile and touchable, some of her pieces capture light, texture, and color while others address more controversial social issues, global crises, and the fate of humans and animals as they navigate a changing world.<\/p>\n<p>The National Buffalo Museum will be open from 10am to 5pm Friday through Sunday of the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. <em>I AM BISON <\/em>will be on view from November 27, 2020 to September 11, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The National Buffalo Museum\u2019s mission is to advocate for the restoration of the North American Bison through education and outreach.

They say it increases the risk of coronavirus infections spreading. The Red Lake and White Earth Bands of Chippewa filed a motion for an expedited stay of the project with the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission late Wednesday. They are arguing that the $2.6 billion project would put the tribes at higher risk of coronavirus infections if construction workers move into the area. The pipeline project took a step forward on Monday when it received a federal permit.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>(AP) A North Dakota-based volunteer organization that helps farmers when they are injured or otherwise impaired says it has helped a number of Midwest farmers who were incapacitated by the coronavirus.

The Pac-12 said USC didn\u2019t have the minimum number of scholarship players available at a specific position group. This is a result of at least two positive COVID-19 cases and the resulting isolation of additional players under contact tracing protocols.<\/p>\n<p>Colorado immediately booked a replacement game against San Diego State in Boulder on Saturday afternoon.

The fact that a sitting American president even had to address whether or not he would leave office after losing reelection underscores the extent to which Trump has smashed democratic conventions over the last three weeks.<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 After months of slumping sales and businesses toppling into bankruptcy, Black Friday is offering a small beacon of hope. In normal times, Black Friday is the busiest shopping day of the year, drawing millions of shoppers eager to get started on their holiday spending. But these are not normal times. The economy is tanking and crowds are expected to be dramatically diminished as coronavirus cases spike and shoppers do more of their purchases online. Many retailers are beefing up their safety protocols, moving their doorbuster deals online and curbside pickup options as a last grasp at sales before the year ends and they head into the dark days of winter with the pandemic still raging.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 The pandemic is turning this into a holiday shopping season like no other. Toy companies are targeting stuck-at-home grown-ups with latte-smelling Play-Doh and Legos that turn into Warhols. People who added a puppy to their family during the pandemic, will see tons of gift options for their new furry friend. And with more people shopping online, stores are doing double duty as shipping centers to try to get gifts to doorsteps faster.<\/p>\n<p>BEIJING (AP) \u2014 Global stock markets are mixed as questions about the effectiveness of one possible coronavirus vaccine weigh on investor optimism. London and Sydney declined while Shanghai, Frankfurt and Hong Kong gained. Investors have been encouraged by reports of progress toward a possible coronavirus vaccine. But they were uneasy after researchers questioned data that showed a candidate from the University of Oxford and AstraZeneca was 70% effective. Investors also are dismayed that U.S. states and European governments are re-imposing controls on business and travel as infection rates surge.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>SEOUL, South Korea (AP) \u2014 South Korea&#8217;s spy agency has told lawmakers that North Korea executed at least two people, banned fishing at sea and locked down its capital as part of frantic anti-coronavirus steps. The lawmakers cited the National Intelligence Service as saying that North Korea also ordered diplomats overseas to refrain from any acts that could provoke the United States because it is worried about President-elect Joe Biden\u2019s expected new approach toward the North. One lawmaker cited the agency as saying North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is displaying excessive anger and taking irrational measures over the pandemic and its economic impact.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>DETROIT (AP) \u2014 The U.S. government\u2019s road safety agency is investigating complaints that front suspensions can fail on nearly 115,000 Tesla electric vehicles. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says it has 43 complaints that linkages near the ball joints can fail, allowing contact between the tire and wheel liner. The probe announced Friday covers 2015 through 2017 Model S sedans and 2016 through 2017 Model X SUVs. The agency says 32 owners complained of failures at low speeds, but 11 said the links failed on roads while traveling above 10 mph, including four at highway speeds. The probe could lead to a recall. A message was left seeking comment from Tesla.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) \u2014 Hopes of families for a quick release for six American oil executives detained in Venezuela for three years over an alleged corruption scheme have evaporated, with a judge finding them all guilty and quickly sentencing them to prison. Attorneys and relatives of the so-called Citgo 6 said the men were wrongly convicted Thursday. The judge in Caracas sentenced the defendants to prison for more than eight years each. The so-called Citgo 6 had been lured to Venezuela for a business meeting and arrested. They are employees of the Houston-based Citgo refining company, which is owned by Venezuela\u2019s state oil company, PDVSA. The case plays out amid broken relations between Caracas and Washington.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>TOKYO (AP) \u2014 A Japanese spacecraft is nearing Earth after a yearlong journey home from a distant asteroid with soil samples and data that could provide clues to the origins of the solar system. The Hayabusa2 spacecraft left the asteroid Ryugu, about 300 million kilometers (180 million miles) from Earth, a year ago and is expected to reach Earth and drop a capsule containing the precious samples on Dec. 6. Scientists at the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency believe the samples, especially those taken from under the asteroid\u2019s surface, contain valuable data unaffected by space radiation and other environmental factors.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CSi Weather&#8230; TODAY&#8230;Sunny.
