Biography…From the North Dakota Winter Show
Krystal Carlascio, Miss Rodeo North Dakota Winter Show
2012 is the 23 year old daughter of James Carlascio of
Jamestown, ND and Michelle Kolb of Aberdeen, SD. Being able
to grow up in two hometowns instilled organizational skills and
a love for travel which have both become crucial to her rodeo
career.
Krystal grew up with her two younger brothers, Jace and
Grant, and her paint horse Sweet Pea. In High School she was
active in 4-H, track, soccer, dance, and of course, anything that
could be done from horseback! Rodeo has always been
Krystal’s number one passion.
While growing up Krystal has prided herself in competing at local
rodeos in barrel racing, goat tying, pole bending, and her
personal favorite break away roping. Being a role model for her
two younger brothers and young ladies everywhere has always
been a priority to Krystal. Her motto continues to be:
“Everything we do, no matter the outcome,will make us a better well rounded individual.”
With this motto she has balanced the demands of school, sports, life, and her love for rodeo.
Krystal obtained her Bachelor of Science degree in Nursing from South Dakota State University in May of 2011. Since then she has worked as a registered nurse at Sanford Health in Fargo, North Dakota.
Krystal enjoys helping people from all walks of life reach and
maintain their optimal health. Krystal’s education and training has been instrumental in shaping her into the type of professional young lady that is qualified to represent North Dakota and the great sport of rodeo.
Krystal is honored to grow up in a time and place where there are endless
possibilities for all of us. She would like to send a thank you to everyone who has touched her life and made it possible to pursue this cowgirl‘s American dream.
A special thanks to the North Dakota Winter Show and her current sponsors:

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A Fargo man and a Grand Forks woman have pleaded not guilty to federal charges alleging they distributed heroin that killed a Fargo blues guitarist.
Twenty-seven-year-old Nathan Evenson and 24-year-old Nicole Wadsworth are accused in connection with the June death of 30-year-old Cody Conner. They entered their pleas in federal court in Fargo on Tuesday.
Both Evenson and Wadsworth could face life in prison if convicted. Assistant U.S. Attorney Chris Meyers wants them held in jail until trial, which is to begin Dec. 11. Detention hearings are to be held within a week.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) – One of two men accused of burglarizing home
construction sites has been sentenced to five years in prison after
pleading guilty.
Thirty-five-year-old Jason Leines also must serve
five years of supervised probation. Prosecutors allege that Leines
and another man stole more than $10,000 worth of equipment.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) – Rain and snow that moved into North Dakota last week slowed fieldwork but has also replenished topsoil moisture in many areas.
The U.S. Agriculture Department says in its weekly crop, livestock and weather report that harvest of the state’s late season crops was already seeing good progress before the moisture moved in.
The corn harvest advanced 27 percentage points to 63 percent complete, ahead of both last year’s pace and the five-year average. The sugar beet harvest at 37 percent is outpacing last year’s but slightly behind the average.
Pasture and range conditions are rated 37 percent very poor, 29 percent poor, 27 percent fair and 7 percent good.
FARGO, N.D. (AP) – John Deere Electronic Solutions in Fargo has completed work on a $22 million expansion.
The company was established in 1987 as Phoenix International. It makes electronics for equipment used in farming, forestry, trucking and construction.
BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – Bismarck city commissioners have voted to
crack down on panhandling in the capital city.
An ordinance approved Tuesday is aimed at eliminating aggressive
panhandling, or begging in which people who are solicited for money
feel intimidated or threatened. It is not an outright ban on
panhandling, but it prohibits begging in many areas.
They include near ATMs, on school playgrounds, in parks, within
20 feet of a street or bus stop, in crosswalks, near public
restrooms and on street medians. Violators could face a fine
between $50 and $500, depending on the offense.
Commissioner Parrell Grossman says the ordinance should increase
public safety while still allowing a constitutionally permissible
activity.
The ordinance is modeled after one in Fargo, North Dakota’s
largest city.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – The University of North Dakota’s newly
renovated education building has been certified for meeting elite
environmental standards.
The U.S. Green Building Council awarded the building with LEED Silver certification.
The renovation included all education, student and faculty spaces and linked the building to nearby Gillette Hall.
GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) – A North Dakota native and former
staffer to President George W. Bush is giving a talk Thursday in
Grand Forks about the presidential election.
Mark Pfeifle (FY’-flee) worked for Bush as a deputy national
security adviser for communications during the Iraq war. He also
served briefly as an adviser to Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
Pfeifle is the keynote speaker for a 7 p.m. public event
Thursday in the community room of the Grand Forks Herald newspaper
building.
Pfeifle is a native of Wishek in south-central North Dakota. He
is a former marketing and advertising director for the base
newspaper at the Grand Forks Air Force Base.

FARGO, N.D. (AP Oct 9, 2012) – Undefeated North Dakota State University remains atop the Football Championship Subdivision coaches’ poll after a 48-7 win over previous No. 3 Youngstown State over the weekend.

Youngstown State dropped to No. 9.
The rest of the Top Five are Montana State, Old Dominion, Wofford and James Madison.
NDSU hosts Indiana State on Saturday. Indiana State is 4-2 and got votes in the poll but did not crack the Top 25.
South Dakota State University also got votes in the poll, after being idle over
the weekend.

FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A woman accused of stealing money while serving as treasurer of a Fargo roller derby team has been sentenced to 25 days in jail and ordered to repay $10,000.
The sentence handed down by Judge John Irby on Monday was harsher than what attorneys had requested. The joint sentencing recommendation had been for restitution and credit for 10 days that Louise Jauss had served on electronic home monitoring.
Irby said he didn’t feel that sentence would be sufficient. His order also means the felony theft conviction will stay on Jauss’ record. Her attorney is considering whether to try to withdraw her guilty plea.
The amount of money Jauss actually stole isn’t known.

MLB PLAYOFFS…
AMERICAN LEAGUE
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) – Oakland left-hander Brett Anderson shut down the Tigers on two hits through six innings and the Athletics bullpen did the rest in the Athletics’ 2-0 win over Detroit in their must-win AL Division Series game last night.
Seth Smith homered and Coco Crisp robbed Prince Fielder of a homer with a leaping catch for the Athletics, who trail the series 2-1 heading to tonight’s Game 4.
NATIONAL LEAGUE
CINCINNATI (AP) – The San Francisco Giants stayed alive in their NL Division Series by rallying for a 2-1 win over Cincinnati that cuts the Reds’ series lead to 2-1.
Scott Rolen booted a grounder by Juan Arias in the 10th inning, allowing Buster Posey to score the go-ahead run for the Giants, who send out 15-game winner Barry Zito (ZEE’-toh) in today’s Game 4.
The two other division series resume today. Baltimore and
New York are tied at a game apiece in the AL Division Series
following the Orioles’ 3-2 victory Monday night.
Miguel Gonzalez gets the nod in Game 3 Wednesday night at Yankee Stadium against Hiroki Kuroda (hih-ROH’-kee kuh-ROH’-duh), who won 16 games this
year for the Yanks.
And the Cardinals and Nationals are dead even after the Cards’
12-4 win in Game 2 in St. Louis.
The scene shifts to the Nation’s Capital, which will host its first postseason baseball game in 79 years today.
Chris Carpenter goes for St. Louis against ex-Cardinal Edwin Jackson.

He had participated in every other aspect of the Lakers’ practices during training camp except full-court contact.
SANDUSKY SENTENCED
BELLEFONTE, Pa. (AP) – In what sounded at times like a locker room pep talk, a defiant former Penn State assistant coach Jerry Sandusky denied committing “disgusting acts” against children and instead painted himself as the victim.
After he said his piece, a judge sentenced him to 30 to 60 years in prison, all but ensuring the 68-year-old Sandusky will spend the rest of his life behind bars for the child sexual abuse scandal.

LONDON (AP) – Scotland Yard says a man and a woman have been

in Syria has grown during nearly 18 months of civil war.
WASHINGTON (AP) – Federal officials are issuing a warning to
vehicle owners who’ve had their airbags replaced over the past

vehicles in the U.S. are believed to be affected.

President Barack Obama or Republican nominee Mitt Romney the

Tuesday.
The proposed stunt threatens to tick off millions of
viewers who are expected to tune in to hear what the candidates
have to say about the economy, health care and other serious
concerns facing this country.
