Jamestown (CSi) For the fifth time since 2011, Kiwanis is coordinating a Kids Against Hunger event in Jamestown.<\/p>\n

Due to the generosity of an anonymous donor as well as many community contributions, Kiwanis will again work with the Aberdeen, S.D., branch of Kids Against Hunger to package the meals at James River Valley Fitness (former YMCA) in Jamestown. More than 400 volunteers are needed to help package meals, or about 200 for each shift.<\/p>\n

Meal-packaging event set for Nov. 14 at UJ\u2019s Larson Center<\/p>\n

Marketing Manager for First Community Credit Union and past-president of Jamestown Kiwanis, Janna Bergstedt, says “With the help of our generous donors, our goal is to raise $50,000. Last year, we raised $40,000. Extra money means extra meals for hungry children at home and abroad.”<\/p>\n

The two shifts are: 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and 1 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. At prior events, volunteers attended in groups from churches, schools, service clubs and families including but not limited to Litchville-Marion, Devils Lake, Medina and Steele youth groups, church groups from St. Paul\u2019s United Methodist, Atonement Lutheran, Church of Latter Day Saints, Immanuel Lutheran and St. James Basilica as well as sports teams from the University of Jamestown.<\/p>\n

Kids Against Hunger packages and sends meals consisting of vegetables, vitamins, rice and soy for starving children in the U.S. and abroad. Meal recipients need only to add water and boil the dried ingredients for 20 minutes. Meals are distributed internationally as well as locally through Great Plains Food Bank.<\/p>\n

Jamestown raised $23,000 for its first Kids Against Hunger event in April 2011, packaging 100,000 meals. It again raised $25,000 in October 2011, matching a $25,000 gift from the anonymous donor. With the help of multiple anonymous donors, Kiwanis raised $30,000 in 2013 and $40,000 in 2014.<\/p>\n

\u00a0WAHPETON, N.D. (AP) – A West Fargo man faces an attempted murder charge after a stabbing at an apartment in Wahpeton.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 24-year-old Jesse Wetsit allegedly stabbed a 23-year-old woman at least five times with a kitchen knife during an argument on Friday. Authorities say the knife had a blade about 4 1\/2 inches long.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The woman was taken to a Fargo hospital. The Daily News reports that her condition was not released.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Court documents do not list an attorney for Wetsit. He was due in court Tuesday afternoon. The charge against him carries a maximum punishment of 20 years in prison.<\/p>\n

\u00a0UNDERWOOD, N.D. (AP) – The North Dakota Highway Patrol says charges are pending against a 14-year-old girl who was behind the wheel of a vehicle that rolled and caused the death of a woman.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities on Monday said the girl lost control of a sport utility vehicle Tuesday while traveling on a gravel road four miles west of Underwood. Authorities say the Underwood girl was driving too fast when she caused the vehicle to enter the ditch and roll.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Highway Patrol says a 16-year-old girl and 33-year-old Randi Backer, both of Underwood, were not wearing seatbelts and were ejected from the vehicle during the incident.\u00a0 Authorities say Backer died Wednesday at a Fargo hospital from injuries sustained in the crash.

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The sheriff in Stark County is denying allegations that law officers bullied a confession out a former Dickinson Trinity High School principal once blamed for setting fire to the school.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The attorney for Sheriff Terry Oestreich on Monday filed a response to a federal lawsuit by former principal Thomas Sander. Sander is suing law enforcement and the city of Dickinson for unspecified damages.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Other defendants in the lawsuit filed their response last month and made similar arguments as Oestreich. The sheriff rejects Sander’s contention that Sander was coerced into confessing to the March 2014 fire.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Sander was charged with arson and endangerment by fire and fired from his job. A judge last summer dismissed the charges after ruling that Sander’s statements to police were improperly obtained.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Stenehjem says the dental examiners group broke state open meetings laws when it discussed public business by email. The attorney general says those exchanges should be made available.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Former NFL players who object to terms of the potential $1 billion concussion settlement have filed appeals that are likely to delay payouts to thousands of retirees until next year. About a dozen appeals on behalf of as many as 90 former players were expected to be filed by Monday’s deadline. Some challenge the exclusion of future cases of CTE, while others are concerned the settlement awards players with neurocognitive symptoms, such as Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, but not those with behavioral and mood disorders.<\/p>\n

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The school appealed the decision and the votes were sealed. Those votes will now be destroyed and those that favored unionization cannot appeal the decision by the full NLRB.<\/p>\n

BANGKOK (AP) – A Thai police official says a man with a yellow shirt and backpack spotted on surveillance cameras before a deadly explosion is more than just a suspect — he’s the bomber. The rush-hour explosion at a central Bangkok shrine killed 20 people and injured more than 100 yesterday. Police released several photos of the man on social media. Video footage on Thai media appears to show the same man sitting on a bench at the crowded shrine, then leaving the backpack behind as he walks away.

The crash Sunday morning as the planes approached a small San Diego County airport killed all five people aboard the two aircraft. The speed differential could have posed a problem for air traffic controllers if the jet was behind the smaller plane.
