Jamestown (CSi) The North Dakota Highway Patrol reports, a 68 year old Spiritwood man was injured about 9:48 a.m., Monday in a one vehicle rollover accident, on I-94 near the Bloom Exit.

The report says Gerald Carlson of Spiritwood was operating his 2005 Ford Ranger westbound, when he lost control on the icy roadway, and entered the median, overturning several times coming to rest in the south ditch.

He was extricated with the Jaws of Life, by the Jamestown Fire Department.

Carlson was transported to Jamestown Regional Medical Center and later Life Flighted to Fargo for treatment of injuries.

The accident remains under investigation.

Assisting the Highway Patrol were the Stutsman County Sheriff’s Office, Jamestown Police, and the Jamestown Fire Department.

 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The federal Interior Department and U.S. Geological Survey have teamed up to produce the nation’s first publicly available interactive map and database of onshore wind turbines.
 
     The map shows more than 47,000 sites. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell says the information should aid land managers and improve the siting of future wind farms.
 
     Assistant Secretary for Water and Science Anne Castle says the data also will support research on wind generation efficiency.
 
     Wind turbines are prevalent throughout the Dakotas. The American Wind Energy Association says South Dakota has 474 turbines and North Dakota 994.
 
     The wind turbine map can be found at http://eerscmap.usgs.gov/windfarm/ .

 

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – More than 90 tons of fresh produce went to food pantries, soup kitchens and other charities last year through the Hunger Free North Dakota Garden Project.
 
     The state Agriculture Department and the Great Plains Food Bank started the volunteer program in 2010. It encourages home gardeners and commercial growers to plant extra produce each year to donate to charity.
 
     State Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring says the program is a vital partnership between people who have produce to share and those who can use it.
 
     The Salvation Army in Bismarck, the Domestic Violence and Rape Crisis Center of Dickinson and Churches United of Fargo were the leading recipients of produce donations last year.

 

In world and national news…

GENEVA (AP) – One passenger says he was terrified “for hours” after the copilot of an Ethiopian Airlines jetliner locked the pilot out of the cockpit, commandeered the plane and headed for Geneva, where he asked for political asylum. Passengers said it seemed like a routine overnight flight to Rome, until the jetliner went into a dive and oxygen masks dropped from the ceiling. A passenger says the hijacker threatened to crash the plane if the pilot didn’t stop pounding on the locked door, trying to get back into the cockpit. Swiss authorities say the hijacker is more likely to get prison time than asylum.
 
     BEIRUT (AP) – The Western-backed rebel movement in Syria says it’s replacing its military chief with an experienced field commander. It’s part of a restructuring aimed at getting the U.S. and its allies to provide more sophisticated weapons to the rebels, to help them confront President Bashar Assad’s army. This, after diplomatic efforts to end the war failed to take off.

 
     SOCHI, Russia (AP) – Authorities in the Olympic city of Sochi, Russia, have detained an Italian activist who is known for speaking out for transgender rights. Vladimir Luxuria was stopped as she entered an arena to watch an Olympic hockey game, and was driven away by police. She’d been walking around the Olympic Park for about two hours, shouting, “Gay is OK” in English and Russian. She earlier said she’d been detained yesterday by Russian police who said she shouldn’t wear clothes with slogans supporting gay rights. Police denied detaining her.
 
     SOCHI, Russia (AP) – The U.S. has its first Olympic gold medal in ice dancing. Meryl Davis and Charlie White captured the top honors Monday at the winter games in Sochi, Russia. The Canadian defending champions took the silver, and a Russian duo was third. Four years ago, Davis and White were the silver medalists in Vancouver — but since then they have overtaken the Canadians, their training partners in Detroit.
 
     WASHINGTON (AP) – Despite billions of dollars spent on government programs to help them, most Americans who have intellectual or developmental disabilities remain shut out of the workforce. And even when they find work, it’s often in a part-time, dead-end job, or for pay that’s well below the minimum wage. A survey by Special Olympics, conducted by Gallup and the University of Massachusetts, finds that only 44 percent of intellectually disabled adults are currently in the workforce — either employed or looking for work. Just 34 percent are actually working.
