(AP) \u2014 Authorities says a Bismarck man is charged with felony child abuse after his baby daughter suffered brain injuries consistent with shaken baby syndrome. A police affidavit says 36-year-old Delaurence Monsegue was arrested Sunday after the baby was taken to a hospital apparently suffering from seizures. The affidavit says health care providers called police after finding injuries that they say were caused by the child being forcefully and violently shaken. Police say Monsegue admitted to shaking the baby but said he was only trying to clear her throat. Bail was set at $100,000 cash Monday.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-13725\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/NDstatecapital-300x202.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/NDstatecapital-300x202.png 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/NDstatecapital-259x175.png 259w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/NDstatecapital.png 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Plans to light North Dakota\u2019s state Christmas tree have been altered this year to accommodate the coronavirus pandemic. Gov. Doug Burgum and his wife, Kathryn Burgum, plan to light the tree virtually on Tuesday evening with a livestream on Facebook. The governor\u2019s office says this year\u2019s Christmas tree theme is \u201ccreating connections,\u201d a reminder to stay socially connected this holiday season through a video chat, phone call or staying physically distanced. State health officials on Sunday reported a total of 725 positive tests in the last day. Five more people died, increasing the total number of deaths in North Dakota to 920.<\/p>\n<p>MINNEAPOLIS (AP) \u2014 Minnesota regulators have approved the final permit for Enbridge Energy\u2019s Line 3 crude oil pipeline replacement across northern Minnesota. The decision gives the company the green light to begin construction on the $2.6 billion project. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency on Monday granted a construction storm water permit. It was the last hurdle that Calgary, Alberta-based Enbridge needed to clear. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the independent Minnesota Public Utilities Commission gave their final approvals last week. Replacement segments in Canada, North Dakota and Wisconsin are already complete. But environmental and tribal groups are still fighting the project.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In sports\u2026<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-14212\" src=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/VCSUbblogo1-300x202.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"202\" srcset=\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/VCSUbblogo1-300x202.jpg 300w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/VCSUbblogo1-259x175.jpg 259w, http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/VCSUbblogo1.jpg 445w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>Valley City\u00a0 (VCSU)\u00a0 Upcoming Vikings sports schedule changes posted.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Men\u2019s Basketball<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>VCSU men\u2019s games scheduled for December \u00a05 versus Dickinson State and December 7 versus Trinity Bible College have been postponed.

Associated Press men\u2019s college basketball poll of the regular season. The Zags received 57 first-place votes from a 63-person media panel. The Bears received six first-place votes, with Iowa, Wisconsin and Illinois rounding out the top five. Gonzaga was the preseason No. 1 and lived up to the billing by rolling over Kansas and Auburn in Fort Meyers, Florida. The Jayhawks dropped a spot to No. 7 this week but were ranked for the 222nd consecutive week to break UCLA\u2019s all-time record set from 1966-80.

Davidson\u2019s Sam Mennenga missed a contested 3-pointer from the wing, but the Wildcats got another shot when the ball went out of bounds with 3.8 seconds left.<\/p>\n<p>The Wildcats inbounded again to Mennenga, who missed a final 3 for the win with Texas\u2019 Andrew Jones closely defending him.

The agency also said Tuesday it could decide as early as Jan. 12 whether to approve an experimental COVID-19 vaccine developed by Moderna Inc. The German pharmaceutical company BioNTech and its U.S. partner Pfizer said earlier Tuesday that they had asked the regulator for speeded-up, conditional approval of their coronavirus vaccine, concluding the rolling review process they initiated with the agency in October. The move comes a day after rival Moderna said it was asking U.S. and European regulators to allow the use of its COVID-19 vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>PARIS (AP) \u2014 The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development predicts that the world economy will bounce back to its pre-pandemic levels by the end of next year. But the OECD said Tuesday the recovery will be uneven across the countries and big risks remain. The organization says that progress on coronavirus vaccines means that the outlook has improved for the first time since the pandemic began. It predicts the global economy will shrink about 4.2% this year and rebound by the same rate in 2021. China will enjoy the strongest rebound, with Europe lagging. It suggests governments should keep investing in areas that deliver long-term benefits, from health care to education to climate change.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BEIJING (AP) \u2014 Global stocks are higher after Chinese manufacturing improved, South Korea reported stronger exports and Australia\u2019s central bank left its benchmark lending rate at a record low.

U.S. futures were up after Wall Street\u2019s benchmark S&amp;P 500 turned in its biggest monthly gain since April. Investors are optimistic about the development of a possible coronavirus vaccine despite caution about the short-term economic impact of rising virus cases in the United States and Europe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ATLANTA (AP) \u2014 Some establishment Republicans are sounding alarms that President Donald Trump\u2019s conspiratorial denials of his own defeat could threaten the party\u2019s ability to win a Senate majority and counter President-elect Joe Biden\u2019s administration. The concerns come ahead of Trump\u2019s planned Saturday visit to Georgia to campaign alongside Sens. David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler. They face strong Democratic challengers in Jan. 5 runoffs that will determine which party controls the Senate. Republicans uniformly acknowledge Trump as the GOP\u2019s biggest turnout driver. But some Republicans worry of potential fallout should Trump use the platform to amplify his baseless allegations of widespread voter fraud.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>ATLANTA (AP) \u2014 Georgia voters are choosing a short-term replacement for civil rights legend John Lewis. Former Atlanta City Council member Kwanza Hall and former Morehouse College President Robert Franklin meet in Tuesday&#8217;s runoff after no one won a majority in a seven-candidate field in September. The winner fills the seat until Jan. 3. State senator Nikema Williams easily defeated Republican Angela Stanton King in November for a full two-year-term starting in January.

Atlas confirmed the news in a Monday evening tweet. Atlas joined the White House this summer, where he clashed with top government scientists, including Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx, as he resisted stronger efforts to contain the COVID-19 pandemic that has killed more than 267,000 Americans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CSi Weather&#8230;.
