She weighed 7 lbs., 10 ounces and has dark hair and \u201cprobably\u201d blue eyes, her mom said.<\/p>\n Izetta\u2019s parents, Stephen and Hannah Roise, welcome her to their Kulm home, along with little brother, Oliver age 2.<\/p>\n Stephen and Hannah married in 2016 and moved to Kulm, N.D., soon after. The couple farms alongside her dad, Bruce Kusler.<\/p>\n With the long drive and the pending blizzard, the couple rented a hotel room in Jamestown to be nearer the hospital. Hannah\u2019s due date was Dec. 29.<\/p>\n \u201cWe weren\u2019t going to take any chances,\u201d Stephen said.<\/p>\n Once the storm ended on Dec. 31, the couple headed home. It felt like they had just arrived when Izetta was ready to return.<\/p>\n The baby\u2019s arrival \u2013 like her brother\u2019s \u2013 was fast and furious. Though she would have accepted, Hannah did not receive an epidural for either birth.<\/p>\n \u201cShe came quickly like her brother,\u201d Hannah said, saying there just wasn\u2019t enough time for the pain medication.<\/p>\n Izetta, an old English name meaning \u201crenowned for beauty,\u201d is also one of Hannah\u2019s middle names. The couple said they hope Izetta is known not only for her external beauty, but also for her beauty inside and out. As their children grow, Hannah and Stephen say they hope their children learn to love music and travel.<\/p>\n The couple met through a mutual friend and a mutual interest in mission work in Uganda.<\/p>\n \u201cSomeday soon, I hope to take both of these munchkins to visit that land,\u201d Hannah said.<\/p>\n The Roises say they appreciate the care of JRMC, especially the \u201cpeaceful presence\u201d of Dr. Glenn Wiens, Essentia; and JRMC Registered Nurse Deb Thingstad.<\/p>\n Izetta is the first of about 350 babies born at JRMC each year.<\/p>\n To learn more about Family BirthPlace or delivering at JRMC, visit www.jrmcnd.com\/mom<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 The James River Humane Society reminds those who received an animal as a Christmas gift, to keep in mind that it needs time to adjust to its new surroundings in the home.<\/p>\n On Friday\u2019s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable JRHS, Board Member, Jay Nitschke said \u201cThe Magic Threes,\u201d are a good way to remember how a new pet needs to adapt to the home and family members.<\/p>\n They are:<\/p>\n Three days to decompress, from being at the shelter, or another home, and possibly three times three days, if the animal is shy.<\/p>\n Three weeks to know the regular routine of the home members, after the Christmas routine.<\/p>\n Three months to feel at home, in its new surroundings.<\/p>\n She says the pet will also need to adjust to a family member who has been away, for a period of time, and returns to the home.<\/p>\n She adds to be patient with the dog or cat, while they are adjusting to their new home.<\/p>\n The principle applies to both dogs and cats.<\/p>\n On another topic, Jay said new memberships are welcome, and at various donation levels, and includes the newsletter.\u00a0 The dollars go toward such areas, as the costs of spaying and neutering the animals before adoption, and other shelter costs.<\/p>\n The James River Humane Society is located off the I-94 Bloom Exit and is open seven days a week, from 9-a.m., to 11:30-a.m., and 5:30-p.m., to 6:30-p.m, or by appointment.<\/p>\n Call 701-252-0747, and go on line to jamesriverhumanesociety.org<\/p>\n As a thank you, JRMC is welcoming the public to a Business After Hours on Jan. 14.<\/p>\n In conjunction with the Jamestown Area Chamber of Commerce, Business After Hours will celebrate the JRMC Clinic and JRMC Cancer Center.

The company faces $190,000 in proposed penalties.<\/p>\n OSHA inspectors determined that CGI failed to follow OSHA standards during grain bin entry and cleaning operations. OSHA issued a willful citation for allowing employees to \u201cwalk the grain\u201d and for not preventing contact with operating machine parts by locking out the bin\u2019s conveyor system. Violations related to walking\/working surfaces, ladder use, machine guarding, bin entry procedures and bin rescue procedures resulted in serious citations.<\/p>\n \u201cThis tragedy could have been prevented if the employer had simply followed well-known safety procedures,\u201d said OSHA Area Director Scott Overson in Bismarck, North Dakota. \u201cInstead, they exposed employees to dangerous hazards that resulted in the loss of life.\u201d<\/p>\n OSHA\u2019s Grain Handling webpage provides resources on recognizing and controlling hazards<\/a> in the grain industry. OSHA is collaborating with the National Grain and Feed Association, Grain Elevator and Processing Society, American Feed Industry Association, and the Grain Handling Safety Coalition to identify potential hazards at grain, feed and processing facilities through the Stand-Up for Grain Safety Week slated for April 13-20, 2020.<\/p>\n CGI has 15 business days from receipt of the citations and penalties<\/a> to comply, request an informal conference with OSHA\u2019s area director or contest the findings before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission<\/a>.<\/p>\n Under the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970<\/a>, employers are responsible for providing safe and healthful workplaces for their employees.

Burleigh County Commission Chairman Brian Bitner said the five-member panel will discuss a potential ballot question Monday night. The discussion will come after the commission last month voted to accept no more than 25 refugees in 2020. Bitner voted against accepting new refugees. He said several people have since requested the issue come before voters.<\/p>\n (AP)\u00a0 The wet weather that caused flooding problems in much of the Midwest last year had one small benefit: electric generation from the Missouri River’s six upstream dams was up 5.6 percent. It was the first time time this century the river had back-to-back years of producing surplus power. That’s important to consumers because the Western Area Power Administration sells the power to rural electric cooperatives, municipal utilities, Indian tribes and other customers. If they don’t get enough from the dams, they have to buy electricity on the open market. Those costs ultimately get passed on to consumers.<\/p>\n (AP)\u00a0 An anonymous donor gave Fargo Public Schools more than $28,000 to pay the lunch debt of all students for the first semester of classes. Superintendent Rupak Gandhi told KFGO-AM that no student is denied a hot lunch, but the district must still keep track of expenses because the meals are federally subsidized. He said the district is working with community organizations to put on fundraisers to cover any future lunch debts. Several organizations have already agreed to cover any lunch debt for the rest of the school year.<\/p>\n In world and national news…<\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 The United States is sending nearly 3,000 more Army troops to the Mideast in the volatile aftermath of the killing of an Iranian general in a strike ordered by President Donald Trump. Defense officials said the troops are from the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. They are in addition to about 700 soldiers from the 82nd Airborne who deployed to Kuwait earlier this week after the storming of the U.S. Embassy compound in Baghdad by Iran-backed militiamen and their supporters. The reinforcements took shape as Trump gave his first comments on the strike. He said he ordered the killing of Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani because he was \u201cplotting to kill\u201d many Americans.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n BAGHDAD (AP) \u2014 Some Syrians in the rebel-held provinces of Idlib and Aleppo have celebrated the targeted killing of a top Iranian general by distributing sweets. Pictures posted Friday on Twitter showed men with a tray bearing baklava and a card reading, \u201cWe congratulate the free people of Syria for the death of criminal Qassem Soleimani. May the pig Bashar be next.” The latter referred to Syrian President Bashar Assad. At a refugee camp near the border with Turkey in Aleppo, another group of men on Friday had a card saying “Thank You Trump” next to a tray of sweets. Soleimani was considered the architect of Iran’s policy in Syria, where he backed Syrian government troops in the country’s nine-year conflict.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n (AP)\u00a0 Stocks Friday afternoon were lower on Wall Street in afternoon trading Friday and oil prices are climbing after U.S. forces in Iraq killed a top Iranian general. Financial stocks are among the biggest decliners as investors buy up U.S. government bonds, sending their yields lower. Technology stocks, health care companies and airlines are among the decliners as the market pulls back from record highs. Several energy stocks are up. Defense contractors are also notching gains. The S&P 500 was down 0.4% as of 1:11 p.m. Eastern time. The Dow lost 160 points, or 0.6%, to 28,708. The Nasdaq dropped 0.4% and the Russell 2000 index gave up 0.2%.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is indicating he has little interest in hearing from witnesses in President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial. McConnell criticized Democrats Friday as having engineered a \u201cslapdash\u201d impeachment that he called the \u201cmost rushed, least fair\u201d in history. McConnell is hoping for a speedy acquittal of the president, but the trial cannot begin until House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sends over the articles of impeachment. Pelosi is refusing to do so until Republicans provide details on the trial. Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer said senators need to hear the “whole truth\u201d as they weigh Trump’s removal from office.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Federal appellate judges are wrestling with whether courts should be refereeing a dispute between the House of Representatives and the Trump administration over the testimony of former White House counsel Don McGahn. A panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit heard arguments Friday over the House Judiciary Committee’s effort to compel McGahn’s testimony. Democrats subpoenaed McGahn well before the start this fall of an impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump’s dealings with Ukraine. The Trump administration appealed after a trial judge ruled for House Democrats. The Justice Department says there’s no reason for judges to become involved in a political dispute.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 A federal judge says an associate of Rudy Giuliani facing campaign finance charges may turn over documents to Congress as part of the impeachment proceeding against President Donald Trump. Lev Parnas wants to turn over to the House intelligence committee data seized by the government when Parnas was arrested in October. Parnas and another man, Igor Fruman, played key roles in Giuliani\u2019s efforts to launch a Ukrainian corruption investigation against Democratic presidential contender Joe Biden and his son Hunter. The records include documents seized from Parnas’ home and the contents of one of his iPhones.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" CSi Weather… .FRIDAY NIGHT…Increasing clouds.
