Krabbenhoft left Sanford last year after nearly a quarter century, receiving a combination of salary, incentive-based pay, severance and two lump sum payouts from supplemental executive retirement plans. The Argus Leader reports about $15 million was paid as severance and another $29 million was given through the retirement plan, which was started in 1983 specifically for Sanford\u2019s executives. The amount paid to Krabbenhoft upon his departure is shown on the regional health system\u2019s IRS form 990, which is filed annually.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 A former guard at the North Dakota State Penitentiary in Bismarck will go to trial in March after he accused of sneaking drugs and electronics to an inmate in the prison in exchange for money. Matthew Taylor, of Mandan, on Monday waived his preliminary hearing and pleaded not guilty to two felonies. The more serious charge carries a possible 20-year prison sentence. Taylor was working as a correctional officer at the penitentiary in November of last year when the North Dakota Highway Patrol began an investigation. Prosecutors say he received $900 from a woman to deliver a cellphone, two computer memory cards and a cigarette package to an inmate, who later tested positive for methamphetamine.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>BISMARCK, N.D.

Public comments on the plans are due by Nov. 30.

The company\u2019s antiviral is one of a handful of pills that have recently been shown to significantly cut hospitalizations and deaths among people infected with COVID-19. If authorized by the Food and Drug Administration it could be a major step toward managing the pandemic, allowing patients to treat themselves at home. FDA regulators will scrutinize company data on the safety and effectiveness of the drug, which will be sold as Paxlovid, before making a decision.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WOODSTOCK, N.H. (AP) \u2014 Fighting sagging poll ratings, President Joe Biden has set out on a national tour to persuade everyday Americans of the benefits of his big, just-signed infrastructure plan. First stop: New Hampshire, a state that gave him no love in last year\u2019s presidential primaries. He returned on Tuesday as president, eager to talk up the infrastructure deal and what all that money can do for Americans. Biden is down in the polls and he hopes to use the successful deal to shift the political winds in his direction. The president signed the infrastructure bill into law on Monday at a splashy bipartisan ceremony on the White House lawn.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>CHICAGO (AP) \u2014 The head of Chicago&#8217;s largest police union has carried out his promise to retire from the force rather than go through with a disciplinary hearing that could have ended with him being fired. In documents posted online, Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 7 President John Catanzara on Tuesday submitted the paperwork to retire from the department after 27 years as a police officer. The 53-year-old&#8217;s retirement announcement came Monday, during a three-day Chicago Police Board hearing on incendiary comments he made online. Catanzara plans to remain president of the union and says he will run against Mayor Lori Lightfoot in 2023.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio says crowds will once again fill Times Square this New Year\u2019s Eve. The mayor said Tuesday that proof of COVID-19 vaccination required for revelers who want to watch the ball drop in person. De Blasio said the celebration will come back \u201cfull strength the way we love it.\u201d The president of the Times Square Alliance, said all spectators aged 5 and over will be asked to show proof of full vaccination. He said people who can\u2019t be vaccinated because of a disability will have to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 A day after announcing he will not seek reelection, Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont has told his colleagues in an emotional speech on the Senate floor that the chamber has become a family to him over the last nearly 47 years. The 81-year-old Leahy said Tuesday that it has been an honor to fight for Vermont and that he did not make the decision to retire lightly. Leahy thanked his staff and his family, particularly his wife. Leahy noted the privilege he has felt in guiding the country toward the future and ended his speech with a catch in his voice. Leahy&#8217;s colleagues gave him a standing ovation.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Many Americans have taken a darker view of the economy as inflation has worsened. Yet so far, they appear no less willing to spend freely at retailers, an encouraging sign for the crucial holiday shopping season. Buoyed by solid hiring, healthy job gains and substantial savings stemming in part from government stimulus checks and other relief, Americans ramped up their spending at retail stores and online shops last month. Some of the increase reflected the impact of higher prices, and there were signs that Americans have started to seek out cheaper options. Yet the gain was solid enough for most economists to envision holiday shopping to jump by a record amount this year.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CSi Weather&#8230;.
