Jamestown, ND (KCSi-T.V. News) — Wednesday evening\u00a0 (Aug 28, 2013)the Jamestown Public School Board and Jamestown Education Association presented their sides, during a mediation session concerning the impasse between the school board and the Jamestown Education Association, with many in attendance at the middle school\u2019s Thompson Room.<\/p>\n

A government-appointed fact-finder noted that this is the closest impasse case he\u2019s ever seen.<\/p>\n

The fact-finding commission, includes Jerry Hieb, of Valley City, and former state Sen. Barb Evanson, of Bismarck.<\/p>\n

The fact-finding commission is made up of three members, one appointed by Governor Jack Dalrymple, one appointed by the state attorney general and one appointed by the Department of Public Instruction.<\/p>\n

Salary is the sticking point in negotiating the two-year teachers\u2019 contract, leading the groups to impasse.<\/p>\n

The fact-finding commission questioned both sides.<\/p>\n

Then the hearing was then opened for public comment, and three school employees voiced concerns.<\/p>\n

Teacher Jay Nitschke emotionally spoke on how although she plans to retire soon, she doesn\u2019t want to see lower salaries have a negative effect on students or her fellow teachers, who are also her friends.<\/p>\n

The fact-finding commission, , will provide recommendations to the School Board and JEA within seven to 10 days.<\/p>\n

Following that the board and JEA must hold at least one negotiations meeting.<\/p>\n

Then if the issues are not resolved within 20 days of the recommendation, the fact-finding commission will advertise its recommendations in a full-page ad in The Jamestown Sun at the expense of the board, after that School Board can finalize the contract.<\/p>\n

STEELE, N.D. (AP) – A jury in North Dakota has found a Texas man guilty of burning down a motel in the town of Steele.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a051 year-old Allen Thomas, of Houston, was found guilty Wednesday on one count of arson and 18 counts of endangering by fire. Authorities say Thomas used a cigarette lighter to ignite a mattress about a year ago because he was upset that the hotel owners had helped his girlfriend after the two had argued.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 No one was hurt in the fire but it displaced about two dozen people and destroyed the business
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The prosecutor this week told jurors that Thomas set the fire out of anger, while the defense attorney said witness testimony will show that Thomas is innocent.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – A McIntosh County man who pleaded guilty to charges that starved his cattle to death is no longer charged with insurance fraud charges.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 James Schnabel pleaded guilty Friday to three of the four counts against him of overworking, mistreating or abandoning animals. More than 100 died.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Schnabel has to pay more than $1,300, do 80 hours of community service and allow his operation to be monitored for two years.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0Now the prosecutor has dropped charges of criminal attempt at theft of property and committing a fraudulent insurance act.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Reasons given included conflicting evidence, Schnabel’s lack of criminal history and his plea.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities allege that Schnabel submitted an insurance claim falsely stating that the starved cattle had died after being chased by wild dogs.<\/p>\n

\u00a0MINOT AIR FORCE BASE, N.D. (AP) – Airmen and bombers from Minot Air Force Base plan to return home later this week from the U.S. territory of Guam.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Minot base spokesman 1st Lieutenant Jose Davis says the mission was for an ongoing military effort to provide a continuous bomber presence in the Western Pacific, which started in March 2004.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Col. Kent Olson, commander of the 119th Wing, piloted the aircraft during its final flight. He calls it a bittersweet moment after the unit’s proud history with mostly fighter planes.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Retired Lt. Gen. Jack Hudson, director of the museum, says the addition of the C-21 will allow historians to “better interpret the diversity of the Air Force’s airlift mission.”<\/p>\n

NORTON, Mass. (AP) – The question was inevitable and the answer was predictable. Tiger Woods says his back is fine.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Woods played in the pro-am Thursday morning at the Deutsche Bank Championship. The last image of Woods on the golf course looked much worse. Four days ago, he dropped to his knees after a back spasm during the final round of The Barclays at Liberty National, where he finished one shot behind Adam Scott.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Woods said after the round it was “hypothetical” whether he would play the Deutsche Bank, adding that he had just walked off the course and wasn’t feeling very good.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 One of his amateur partners asked him about his back on the first tee at the TPC Boston. Woods gave a short answer.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NEW YORK (AP) – Day long rains wiped out a portion of the Day 3 schedule at the US Open, forcing some matches to be rescheduled for Thursday.\u00a0 Among them was top-ranked Serena Williams’ second round match.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Only a handful of matches were completed before the rains came including second round wins by third-seed Agnieszka Radwanska (ahg-nee-ESH’-kuh rahd-VAHN’-skuh) and fifth-seed Li Na (lee nah).
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Among those who returned to the court after a pair of rain delays that ate up about four hours was Venus Williams who lost her second round match to China’s Jie Zheng, 6-3, 2-6, 7-6. The 33-year old Williams has now been ousted from the U.S. Open before the third round three years in a row.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 On the men’s side third-seed Andy Murray advanced with a straight sets win while Juan Martin del Potro (wahn mar-TEEN’ dehl POHT’-roh), the sixth-seed, got his match in and was a winner as well.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 And James Blake bid farewell to the Open and competitive tennis as he lost to Ivo Karlovic (EE’-voh KAR’-loh-vihch) 7-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-7, 6-7.<\/p>\n
