Jamestown, ND, (KCSi-T.V. News November 30, 2012) — Jamestown Regional Medical Center (JRMC) is excited to announce their new service, pulmonary rehabilitation. Pulmonary rehabilitation allows patients to make the most of limited lung function.<\/p>\n

“Pulmonary rehab aims to reduce symptoms, decrease disability and increase participation in physical and social activities while improving the overall quality of life for patients with chronic respiratory disease,” said Emily Kjelland, JRMC registered clinical exercise physiologist and cardiopulmonary rehab manager.<\/p>\n

This new service is designed for adults who are increasingly limited in their everyday activities due to Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), Emphysema, Chronic Bronchitis, Sarcoidosis and other lung conditions.

A signed referral from your doctor is required for participation in the pulmonary rehab program at JRMC.<\/p>\n

The referral and other information regarding your physical condition links the pulmonary rehab team to the patients physician, allowing them to work together to provide the best possible care. For more information on pulmonary rehab at JRMC call (701) 952-4839.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The hanging of 38 Dakota men in 1862 is the largest one-day execution in U.S. History. The Dakota people of North Dakota, South Dakota, and Minnesota live in the shadow of this historical event.\u00a0 In April of 1863, U.S. Congress declared all U.S.-Dakota treaties null and void, and all Minnesota reservations were abolished. The Dakota were banished from Minnesota, and bounties were placed on Dakota scalps. Many Dakota people fled to what is now North Dakota.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The sesquicentennial commemoration will include Circle of Nations School Singers and Dancers from Wahpeton, ND.\u00a0\u00a0 Red Eagle Drums of Henning, MN will lead a drum circle following the commemoration.\u00a0 The keynote speaker is Dr. Elden Lawrence, President Emeritus of Sisseton Wahpeton College.\u00a0 Dr. Lawrence\u2019s address will highlight his expertise about the conflict based on his book titled The Peace Seekers:\u00a0 Indian Christians and the Dakota Conflict.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dr. Lawrence is a former tribal college president and professor of sociology.\u00a0 He served two terms as a tribal council member and was appointed to a partial term as Tribal Secretary of the Sisseton Wahpeton Sioux Tribe.\u00a0 He has served as a Professor of Ethnic Studies at Minnesota State University, Mankato.\u00a0 His personal mission is bridging the gap between mainstream American and American Indian cultures.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dr. Lawrence will remain a guest at VCSU on Monday, December 3, 2012, at 7:00 pm in Froemke Auditorium of Foss Hall, as the inaugural Lecturers & Readers scholar.\u00a0 Lecturers & Readers endeavors to invite one author per semester in-residence to present in VCSU classes and to speak at an evening event open to the public. The title of his presentation is Caught Between Two Worlds.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Valley City State University lecture series What In The World Is Going On? and students of COMM 216: Intercultural Communication and COMM 360: Group Dynamics are collaborating to commemorate the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862.\u00a0 VCSU\u2019s Division of Communication Arts & Social Sciences, the Office of the President, and the Office of the Vice President of Academic Affairs are sponsoring this event.<\/p>\n

\u201cJulie\u2019s 20-plus years of experience with state and federal policy, as well as her knowledge of energy-related issues, will make her an outstanding addition to the Public Service Commission,\u201d Dalrymple said. \u201cShe will be an effective advocate for North Dakota consumers and will work tirelessly to continue to grow our economy and protect the interests of our people.\u201d<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The state Tax Department says a record number of North Dakotans reported seven-figure incomes last year, many of whom are benefiting from the state’s oil bonanza.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Figures released to The Associated Press show a record 634 people reported incomes of more than $1 million on their 2011 individual tax returns. That’s up from 532 in 2010.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tax Department analyst Kathy Strombeck says the increase in the number of North Dakotans with million-dollar income comes largely from royalties paid to mineral owners by oil companies.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Tax Department records show the average adjusted gross income in the state increased from about $53,000 in 2010 to almost $61,000 last year.<\/p>\n

\u00a0MINNEAPOLIS (AP) – A Minnesota judge has dismissed child
\npornography charges against a college football head coach accused
\nof making pornographic videos of his children.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Blue Earth County District Court Judge Krista Jass ruled Friday
\nthat the case against Todd Hoffner is dismissed for lack of
\nprobable cause.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hoffner is the head coach at Minnesota State, Mankato. He was
\ncharged in August with two felonies. Prosecutors said he made
\nvideos of his children performing suggestive acts while naked.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hoffner and his wife insisted all along that the videos were not
\ninappropriate, and were merely images of children acting silly and
\ndancing after taking a bath.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A search of Hoffner’s home found no evidence of child porn, and
\nsocial workers found no evidence of abuse.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – A program established in Fargo-Moorhead last

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Coordinator Sue Koesterman says the project will begin offering
\noverflow shelter at 13 churches beginning Sunday and continuing
\nthrough next March.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The head of the FM Coalition for Homeless Persons says the
\nproject is a short-term “Band-Aid.” Laurie Baker says permanent
\nsolutions involve “community will to address the conditions of
\npoverty and disability” that contribute to homelessness.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

\u00a0HATFIELD, Pa. (AP) – He says it won’t be easy — but President
\nBarack Obama says he thinks both sides can work together toward an
\nagreement that gets deficits under control — “in a way that’s
\nbalanced and is fair.” He visited a toy factory near Philadelphia
\nFriday to call for an extension of tax cuts for households making
\n$250,000 or less, while letting increases kick in for wealthier
\nAmericans. Back in Washington, House Speaker John Boehner
\n(BAY’-nur) said he’d keep working with the White House to avoid
\nautomatic spending cuts and tax hikes, but added, “Right now,
\nwe’re almost nowhere.”
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 WASHINGTON (AP) – The Obama administration is scrambling to
\nsalvage hopes for Mideast peace talks, after the United Nations
\noverwhelmingly voted to recognize a Palestinian state over the
\nobjections of the U.S. and Israel. Secretary of State Hillary
\nRodham Clinton is meeting senior Israeli and Palestinian officials
\ntoday to try to plot a path forward. The White House is rejecting
\nany talk of cutting U.S. aid to the Palestinians after they
\ngarnered overwhelming global support to join the U.N. as a
\nnonmember observer state.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PAULSBORO, N.J. (AP) – Officials in New Jersey are backing away
\nfrom an earlier claim that a bridge buckled and caused a freight
\ntrain carrying hazardous chemicals to derail. They’re not sure
\nwhether the derailment or the partial collapse happened first. At
\nleast two tanker cars toppled into a creek in Paulsboro, causing a
\nleak of hazardous vinyl chloride into the air. Dozens of people
\nwent to a hospital complaining of breathing problems.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 LOS ANGELES (AP) – A strike in the ports of Los Angeles and Long
\nBeach is in its fourth day, despite efforts to end the walkout. It
\nhas idled most of the cargo complex that is the busiest in the
\nnation. Seven of eight terminals in Los Angeles and three more in
\nLong Beach are closed to cargo container traffic, as dockworkers
\nrefuse to cross picket lines set up by clerical workers — who say
\nshippers are outsourcing their jobs.
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 INDIANAPOLIS (AP) – The sentence is 50 years behind bars for an
\nIndiana financier who was convicted of swindling investors out of
\nabout $200 million. A judge in Indianapolis today handed down that
\nsentence to Timothy Durham, who was once the chief executive of
\nNational Lampoon. The government accused him and two others of
\nstripping an Ohio company of its assets, and using the money partly
\nto buy mansions, classic cars and other luxury items.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
