Dana said the Jamestown United Way was able to achieve their ambitious goal last year and the Jamestown community adding that the Jamestown community has been incredible over the last few years, and believes that support will continue. The Jamestown community has a greater need for services, which is the reason that the campaign goal was raised to help meet the needs for the services in Jamestown.<\/p>\n

She said Jamestown United Way has moved toward the Community Impact model. This model will allow the United Way to show the community\u2014through agency collaboration\u2014how it impacts the community.<\/p>\n

Board members can serve two consecutive three year terms and then are required to sit out, so thet are always looking for new board members who bring new ideas and energy to the board.<\/p>\n

The United Way theme this year is “United We Can.”<\/p>\n

Previously fundraisers this yeat have included, an Outdoor Movie Event at McElroy Park, and a Bake Sale at the Buffalo Mall, with events show community support.<\/p>\n

Thirty-four-year-old Cole Schwindt, of Moorhead, Minnesota, has been missing since Dec. 2. Divers later found his snowmobile submerged in the river, and police say he is believed drowned.<\/p>\n

Searches have been conducted using boats, dogs, divers and electronic equipment.

Jamestown City Fire Chief Jim Reuther says, the local water rescue team assisted at the scene six times during the search.<\/p>\n

He stresses that Jamestown has a “loaner” ROV and is ready for use, if called upon.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that the ROV manufacturer, Video Ray, located in Pennsylvania over-nighted a new ROV at no chargeon Friday and the North Dakota Highway Patrol in Jamestown brought the ROV to the scene of the river search so the operation could continue.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It wasn’t immediately known how many players became ill at the Teamsters Arena on Sunday, but some of them were treated for headaches and nausea at a local hospital.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fire Department Battalion Chief Dane Carley says firefighters measured carbon monoxide levels in the arena up to 110 parts per million, and levels at 9 parts per million are considered dangerous.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Arena Manager Jeff Lockhart says the carbon monoxide might have come from a faulty heating system or a malfunctioning Zamboni ice machine.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Officials with Xcel Energy checked the arena on Monday and found no trace of gas.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Fifty-four-year-old Terry Link appeared in South Central District Court Monday on charges of attempted murder, interfering with an emergency call and preventing arrest.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Lester Van Waters Jr. of Parachute, Colorado pleaded guilty last year to a count of deliberate homicide by accountability. The case is before Montana District Judge Richard Simonton in Sidney.

WASHINGTON (AP) – The Supreme Court is refusing to allow Arizona to enforce stringent restrictions on medical abortions while a challenge to them plays out in lower courts.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The justices on Monday left in place a lower court ruling that blocked rules that regulate where and how women can take drugs that induce abortion. The rules also would regulate the use of the abortion medications after the seventh week of pregnancy instead of the ninth.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Planned Parenthood was among abortion providers that challenged the rules in federal court. The San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals prevented the state from putting them in place during the legal challenge. Similar laws are in effect in North Dakota, Ohio and Texas. The Oklahoma Supreme Court struck down the restrictions in that state.<\/p>\n

\u00a0SYDNEY (AP) – Police are offering more details about the deadly end to a hostage siege at a cafe in Sydney, Australia. It ended early Tuesday — local time — after more than 16 hours. Police say they raided the cafe after they heard a number of gunshots from inside. When it was over, the gunman and two of the hostages were dead, and four others were wounded. A state police commissioner says police believed that if they didn’t raid the cafe when they did, “there would have been many more lives lost.” Police aren’t saying whether the hostages who died were caught in the crossfire or shot by the gunman — identified as an Iranian-born man who’d already faced other charges.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BERLIN (AP) – As more and more Germans flock to anti-Islam demonstrations around the country, Germany’s chancellor is warning people not to be duped by rhetoric from the far right. One group has staged weekly rallies in the eastern city of Dresden that have attracted thousands. That group insists that it’s protesting only against extremism, and not against immigrants or Islam itself. But the protests have received open support from neo-Nazi groups.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 SOUDERTON, Pa. (AP) – Authorities outside Philadelphia say six people are dead and one is wounded, and the suspect remains on the loose. A prosecutor identifies the suspect as Bradley Stone. She says all of the victims are related to him. They were found in multiple homes. Police officers have converged on a home in Pennsburg, about 30 miles northwest of Philadelphia. They are using a megaphone to try to bring an end to their daylong pursuit of Stone.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) -Authorities are blaming a blown transformer and a construction mishap for turning the lights out at several government buildings in Washington Monday. The State Department says a power line serving its headquarters was severed in a construction accident. Emergency generators allowed some staff to keep working, but others were sent to work from different offices or home. It also caused lights to flicker at the White House. Meanwhile, police say a transformer explosion at the Office of Personnel Management caused outages there and at several government buildings.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – Police can use evidence that was seized during a traffic stop — even if it turns out that officers initially pulled over a car based on a misunderstanding of the law. That ruling comes Monday from the Supreme Court, which says it doesn’t violate the Constitution’s protection against unreasonable searches.
