Getting back into the work force

Experience Works aims to get older workers employed

By Cole Benz

Record Editor cbenz@countrymedia.net Retirement.

That’s what we all strive for.

It’s the time in our lives where we have put our stamp on the world; and now we have the chance

to enjoy the time visiting family, fishing, or starting a new hobby.

But what if the extra time is too much?

Some people who reach retirement find that it isn’t what they had envisioned, and want to get back into the workforce.

The difficulty is making that jump back into a job, and the challenge is greater for some after they pass retirement age.

That’s where Experience Works can help.

Experience Works (formerly known as Green Thumb), is a program started in 1965 originally to keep farmers working during the offseason.

Presently the program has expanded to the en-

NEWS BRIEFS

STUDENTS | FROM PAGE 1

Commissioner advises taxpayers on tax season, fraud Tax Commissioner Ryan Rauschenberger today provided information to North Dakota’s individual income taxpayers about the upcoming tax filing season.

The North Dakota Office of State Tax Commissioner will open the state income tax filing season on Jan. 19, 2016, coinciding with the Internal Revenue Service’s (IRS) filing season opening. Both electronic and paper filed returns will be accepted starting on that date.

“Our office has been gearing up for the upcoming tax season with a considerable focus on combating tax fraud,” stated Rauschenberger. “The 2015 tax season saw a sizable increase in the amount of attempted tax fraud, and we are expecting 2016 to follow suit.

We encourage taxpayers to file as early as possible to help prevent fraud.”

During the 2015 individual income tax season, the Office of State Tax Commissioner stopped more than 900 returns claiming $1.3 million in fraudulent refunds. The increase in fraudulent activity led the Office of State Tax Commissioner to institute additional preventative measures, which have been modified and implemented for the 2016 tax season. These measures will result in slower refund processing time.

“We ask that taxpayers be patient when waiting for their refunds,” Rauschenberger added. “A slightly longer processing time is actually a good thing. We are taking the time to prevent North Dakota tax dollars from getting into the hands of fraudsters.”

Taxpayers may use the newly improved Where’s My Refund? tool to track their refunds. This tool has been recently revamped to include a refund tracker, as well as more detailed and individualized information for the taxpayer on the status of their return. Taxpayers may also sign up to receive email or text alerts when their refund is issued. Information on the Where’s My Refund? tool is updated daily.

Tax Commissioner Rauschenberger continues to encourage taxpayers to e-file. “E-file is the fastest and most secure way to file,” said Rauschenberger. “In 2015, more than 424,000, or nearly 86 percent, of North Dakota individual income taxpayers filed their income tax return electronically.”

The Office of State Tax Commissioner also revamped its online ND Free File tool to help taxpayers easily see if they qualify to file their federal and state returns for free with certain tax software companies.

Taxpayers may also e-file by purchasing tax preparation software, by working with a tax professional, or by using the Office of State Tax Commissioner’s stand-alone free ND Fillable Forms option (for ND return only). This filing season North Dakota, along with many state tax departments, is requesting driver license or state-issued identification card information for electronically filed tax returns. This is an additional effort to combat stolen-identity tax fraud and protect you and your tax refund.

North Dakota tax booklets and forms may be found on the Office of State Tax Commissioner’s website www.nd.gov/tax. IRS forms may be found at www. irs.gov or by calling 1-800-TAX-FORM (1-800-8293676).

NDSU Dean’s List

Area North Dakota students were among the 3,782 North Dakota State University students to be placed on the fall 2015 dean’s list.

A student must earn a 3.50 grade point average or higher and be enrolled in at least nine class credits to qualify for the summer list.

Area students making this list include Benjamin Pearson and Kaycee Schwind.

most of their time being spent in Family Medicine, though both would gladly go to another department if another doctor requested their presence.

It is early in their medical school careers, but thinking ahead Johnson is very interested in the brain and nervous system, a possible path to Neurology. Andersson has two departments in mind— surgery or psychiatry—but both students said nothing is set in stone.

Aside from the medical training, both Johnson and Andersson are very interested in gaining an understanding of the American healthcare system. The healthcare system in Norway differs greatly from the United States.

“I hope to learn something more about that (American healthcare system),” Andersson said.

Johnson echoed his sentiment, saying he would like to bring their knowl-

edge back to their own country.

Olson said that the program has used up to four different facilities around the state, which includes Hettinger. She also said that the program continues to grow in popularity, and applications are overflowing.

“Every year, more interest builds,” Olson said “I’ve got more people applying than we can accommodate.”

She said that one of the

main reasons for the growing interest is the fact that the students get more oneon-one attention from the doctors. In Norway sometimes the ration between student and instructor is not very favorable.

After the five weeks are completed, both plan to do a more site seeing in the United States before returning to Norway.

Neither ruled out the possibility of working in America after their medical training was complete.

PETRICK | FROM PAGE 1 But in her final semester of college, Petrick, who was enlisted with the North Dakota Army National Guard for six years, was deployed overseas during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2003 and 2004. She served 14 months in Iraq, an experience she said that she didn’t necessarily want to relive. It was a defining moment in her life, however, because it’s there she met her husband, Curtis Petrick.

She did ultimately graduate from University of Mary with an undergraduate degree and later returned to receive a Master’s in Business Administration.

When she married and had children, her activity in politics was set aside.

“Now that they’re a little older, I just felt it was the right time for me to finally jump back in,” Petrick said of beginning her campaign.

Petrick was born in Bowman to Scott and Deborah Perkins, now Crawford, and lived in Scranton. She was the middle child of three.

The family relocated to Bowman when Petrick was 10. There she graduated high school in 1999, and subsequently left for college.

It was watching her parents working several jobs at once, and struggling to get by, which instilled a fire within her.

“We grew up really hard, not necessarily with a lot of money,” she said. “I thought when I get older … I wanted to take care of the most important thing to me, which is always my family. “(It) instilled a fire in all of us, to really work hard for what we wanted.”

And the sisters went on to experience great success. Her older sister,

Chelsea Berler, owns a successful public relations consulting business in Florida and younger sister, Alicia Kulseth, owns a booming salon in Mandan.

“I think Bowman is a great community but I attribute a lot of my family’s success to my family,” she said. “My family is extremely close and we really like to lift each other up and help

when we can. We’re hard workers.”

After spending 14 months away from her family while overseas, “and seeing the horrible things going on outside of the United States in general,” Petrick decided she wanted to raise a family in North Dakota.

As her children grew older — Reed, 9, and Lola, 7 — Petrick felt 2016 was going to be her year to rejoin the political field.

She was working for the American Heart Association in Bismarckt when she made a decision to run for a local state representative seat that was up for grabs. Though, as an employee of the American Heart Association, it wasn’t possible for her to run for public office. Her last day at that job was Jan. 8. And she kicked off her political campaign the following week.

“Everyone’s been really super supportive,” she said.

But Petrick said she realizes her campaign would be an uphill battle — she’s running as a democrat in the largely conservative community of Mandan.

It’s not too new for Petrick, considering she was raised in southwest North Dakota, also an area known for being mostly conservative. She said a lot of people are surprised that she’s running on the Democratic-NPL’s ticket.

“I look at running for this position as not really black or white; it’s not democrat or republican,” she said. “Although a lot of my beliefs do align with the democrats, not all of them do.”

She considers herself a conservative democrat, supporting social programs for addiction, mental health and gay rights, but also the building of the nation’s military and other republican ideology.

“I really support equality for all people; I feel I really can relate to most people if they get to know me and ignore the ‘R’ or ‘D’ behind my name,” she reassured.

A resident of Mandan, which she said has a small community feel like Bowman, she noted the big priorities in the area are supporting youths and ensuring they receive a solid education. “That’s why I choose to live in Mandan because it really does give that small town feel but also we have a big city kind of life.”

Petrick is running against two incumbent republicans, Rep. Todd Porter and Rep. Nathan Toman.

“It’s not going to be an easy battle, but I think that it’s obtainable for me,” she said.

Every restroom, locker room, and shower room located in a public elementary or secondary school that is designated

for student use and is accessible by multiple students at the same time shall be designated for and used only by students of the same biological sex.

In addition, any public school student participating in a school sponsored activity off school premises which includes being in a state of undress in the presence of other students shall use those rooms designated for and used only by students of the same biological sex. *HB 1054 authorizes the production and sale of industrial hemp. Several states have legalized the cultivation and research of industrial hemp, including our neighboring states of Montana and North Dakota. Hemp fibers and stalks are used to make rope, twine, clothing, construction materials, paper, biofuel, plastic composites, and more.

The total retail value of all hemp products imported from other countries and sold in the U.S. is $620 million a year. Hemp is an attractive rotation crop for farmers, but you can’t get high on it. Because hemp varieties contain virtually zero tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), your body processes it faster than you can smoke it. Trying to use hemp to put you on cloud nine will only put you in bed with a migraine!† † To contact me, call the Senate Chamber at 7733821, leave a message and I’ll try to return your call.

District 28 Legislative Report By Betty Olson

The 91st session of the South Dakota Legislature began on Tuesday, January 12. Most legislators had to be in Pierre by Sunday or Monday, depending on which committees they are on. I didn’t have to be there until Monday afternoon and the roads between here and Pierre were horrible. A Highway Patrolman passed me south of Meadow Corner with lights and sirens blazing on his way to one

of two car wrecks east of Faith. There was some ice on my way to Faith, but as I headed south from Faith on Highway 73 it got real western!

I met the Faith ambulance headed north with lights flashing right before I came on to the wreck north of Rep. Dean Wink’s ranch. The ice got worse after heading east on Highway 34 and west of Hayes a young ranch wife had just rolled her pickup on her way home from getting groceries in Pierre.

She had her seat belt on and had a hard time getting out of it while hanging upside down.

I was the first one on the wreck and she was really shook up but, thankfully

she wasn’t hurt. Reminded me of my pickup wreck on the way to Pierre for Veto Day a few years ago when I was also upside down hanging from my seatbelt.

Rep. Liz May had a drunk driver smash into the front of her grocery store in Kyle Monday morning, causing thousands of dollars-worth of damage. On Tuesday on her way to Pierre Liz came across five vehicles that had slid off into the ditch along I-90. I called Liz’s brother Rep. Sam Marty about the nasty roads on Monday so when he came down those same roads Tuesday he had to drive so slow that he didn’t get to Pierre until after Gov. Daugaard’s State of the

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD

Hat Tips By Dean Meyer

Hello, The first thing I usually do in the morning is check the temperature and wind.

And this winter, for most days, that has been a pleasurable experience. Only a few days of minus degrees and most mornings the wind hasn’t been too bad.

This morning the winds are very light and the temperature only a minus fourteen! As Bud Grant showed a week ago, shirt sleeve weather!

I have a foggy memory.

Maybe it’s the age. Or like that song, “Coulda been the whiskey, might have been the gin”. Not really,

but I did like that song. I don’t remember a winter with this nice of weather.

Looking at the forecast for the rest of the month, we stay above zero and only a slight chance of snow.

No minus wind chills.

No blizzards. High in the twenties and thirties and lows above zero! Makes you wonder why everyone loaded up and headed for Arizona and Florida!

I’ve a u-joint out on the feed pickup. It’s the front one so I figure until it snows more, or thaws more; I can get by with two-wheel drive. It makes it a little hard for Shirley to shovel because I can’t use low range. And bouncing over the frozen feed ground where the cows have been bedding down is pretty dang rough. She used to be able to handle it better. But with age, and having a desk job five days

a week has taken its toll on her sense of balance.

Thank God once in awhile we have a three-day weekend so she can have a few days to shake the cobwebs off and get to ranching again!

Back in the day, when we would go to the river to cake cows, she was pretty dang good at it. I could holler at her to, “Hang on!

I’m going to take a run at that drift!” And she would grab onto that cab or the box and could ride that baby through anything.

She could shovel off a ton of cake in a half hour without breaking a sweat.

Now, she kind of whines…Well, actually, she screams because she is going to fall off if I don’t slow down. Which I can’t do. I’m in first gear. And low range is out.

So she thinks she should drive! Really! She thinks

she should drive! Now, how in the heck is a three hundred pound fat guy going to shovel cake over that rough ground? I mean that is the definition of mission impossible.

I guess it is like the guy that was going across Montana on 94. He’s enjoying the scenery, listening to country music, and thinking about cows.

That’s what ranchers think about when they are driving.

All of a sudden he looks in his mirror and there is a highway patrolman right behind him with the flashing lights on. The rancher quickly pulls over on the shoulder and the hp comes up.

“You forgot your wife in Miles City,” he explains.

“Thank God,” the rancher exclaimed! “I thought I had lost my hearing!”

Later, Dean

Nighthawk basketball teams both down Harding County

By SHELDON CHRISTENSON For the Pioneer Harding County came to Scranton on Dec. 18 and 19 to take on the Nighthawk boys and girls’ basketball teams, and left going 0-2 for their efforts.

Hettinger-Scranton’s boy’s basketball team faced the Ranchers first and pulled out a 64-62 win. The Nighthawk’s full court pressure initially gave the Ranchers trouble as they quickly fell behind 12-0. On top

of that, their 6’4” center Mason Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls and would not return until the 2nd half. The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25.

With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-

26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points.

They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied.

The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot.

Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the

Nighthawks.

Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points.

The Nighthawk JV team also remains undefeated as they downing Harding Co. 63-53.

Harding Co. came into the game with a 2-0 record and receiving votes in the top five in South Dakota Class B ranks.

The following night the Nighthawk girls downed the

Harding County girls who came in with a 1-3 record. The Hettinger/Scranton girls also jumped out to an early lead as they were head 16-1 after the first stop, and 25-15 at half.

They held on in the second half although being outscored 2421 to pull off their second win of the season to go along with five losses.

Casey Joppa tallied 19 and Kinsey Jahner added 11 for the Nighthawks. Both had two 3-pointers.

Night Hawk girls win their first Region 7 game

By Sheldon Christenson For The Record

The Night Hawks girls downed Richardton-Taylor to record their first Region 7 win on Jan. 14.

They came into the game with a 0-3 region record.

The two JV teams started the evening off with the Night Hawks recording a 44-32 victory.

The Night Hawks held a slim 12-11 edge after the first quarter but Richardton-Taylor held them to two points in the second quarter to take a 23-14 lead at halftime.

Substitutions played almost all the second quarter for the Night Hawks.

The starters came back in the second half, and with their pressure defense held Richardton-Taylor to nine total points in the second half, while scoring 30 of their own.

The JV Night Hawks had eight players scoring with Briana Sanford leading the way with eight. I had Sanford and Justice Anderson leading

the way in rebounds.

The Night Hawks varsity jumped out quickly to take a 15-5 lead after the first quarter and went into half time with a 29-16 advantage.

They played pressure defense and created numerous RichardtonTaylor turnovers, which led to some easy buckets.

But they also missed a few layups along the way.

Freshman Abbie Kludt led the team in rebounds, and more than likely in steals, while also tossing in 11 points. Sophomore Molly Holt paced the Night Hawks in scoring with 15, which included two 3-pointers.

Junior Taylor Hestekin also had a nice game, as she recorded 11 points.

Leading scorer for the Lady Raiders was senior Reagan Olson with eight.

The lady Night Hawks followed up their victory against Richardton-Taylor with a 78-49 win over Bison, S.D., on Jan. 16.

WRESTLING

Night Hawk wrestlers do well at Miles City tourney

By Sheldon Christenson For The Record

The Hettinger Black Devils and the current Night Hawk wrestling team have been attending the Annual Cowboy Invitational at Miles City, Mont., for at least the last ten years. For this year, the 58th Cowboy Invitational, they had their highest finish by placing fourth out of 26 teams. Seventeen of the teams were from Montana, five from Wyoming and four from North Dakota. Standings for the other three North Dakota teams had Bismarck Century (fifth), Williston (16th) and Des Lacs-Burlington (19th).

I talked briefly with head coach Randy Burwick and he was very proud of his wrestlers, with six placing including two champions in Kyle Burwick at 113 and Colbey Steeke at 205. Jacob Schalesky also placed with a sevnth-place finish, but his points could not count since Steeke was also in the 205 weight class and his points were counted. Jacob Schalesky normally wrestles at 195 but Montana does not have a 195 weight class as they go from 182 to 205. Coach Burwick also mentioned that three of his wrestlers, Carlos Martinez, Alec Andress and Logan Lachowitzer, were all one match away from getting into the placement matches.

The top five teams were: Colstrip, Mont. (190) Billings Senior HS, Mont.

(162) Campbell Co., Wyo. (145) Night Hawks (136.5) Bismarck Century (131) There was also a junior varsity portion of the tourney and the following is how the Night Hawks did: JV 77-94 - Josh Dix went 1-2 JV 117-127 - Ezra Wiechmann went 1-2 JV 120-121 - Brandon Jarrett went 0-2 JV 123-132 - Matt Lucas went 2-1 JV 127-138 – Ben Dalley went 3-0 JV 160-169 - Damon Cornelius went 2-1

Weekly Vikings Roundup By Jordan Wright For The Record

Once the Superbowl is over, this section will return to your regularly scheduled Vikings content.

But until then, I will be giving you a recap of the NFL playoffs, the Pro Bowl and the Superbowl.

The divisional round of the NFL playoffs featured four great match ups between the remaining eight teams. In the NFC, you had Arizona versus Green Bay and Carolina versus Seattle, while the AFC brought us New England versus Kansas City and Pittsburgh versus Denver.

Green Bay Packers at Arizona Cardinals. Three weeks ago, Green Bay traveled to Arizona and suffered the worst loss of their season. In the divisional round of the playoffs, the Packers proved to be a different team than the one that was beaten 38-8. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers led a furious fourth quarter comeback, eventually heaving a Hail Mary with five seconds left to Jeff Janis, who was pressed into action because of injuries. The touchdown tied the game, and it was off to overtime.

If the first four quarters were crazy, overtime proved to be no different.

Before overtime even started, the referee was unable to get the coin to flip and had to re-do it. On the first play from scrimmage, Carson Palmer hit Minnesota native Larry Fitzgerald for a 75 yard gain. With the ball on the five yard line, Palmer again got the ball to Fitzgerald who went into the end zone to seal the victory.

Seattle Seahawks at Carolina Panthers If the Green Bay/Arizona game was a thriller, the first half of the Seahawks/Panthers game was a snooze

fest. Cam Newton and company put up 17 points, and the defense added two pick-sixes to make the score 31-0 going into halftime.

Most fans watching, as well as the Carolina Panthers, thought the game would be over. Unfortunately for the Panthers, the Seahawks didn’t get that particular memo.

In the second half, the Seahawks looked like a completely different team.

Being down 31 points, Seattle elected to get quarterback Russell Wilson going instead of focusing on running back Marshawn Lynch. Seattle’s defense also turned it around, and after giving up 17 points in the first half, Seattle pitched a shutout in the second half. With a 1:12 left on the clock in the fourth quarter, Seattle kicked a field goal that brought the score to 31-24, making it a one score game. Carolina was able to recover the ensuing onside kick and close the game out, preventing what would have been one of the most improbable comebacks in NFL history.

Carolina will remain home and welcome in the Arizona Cardinals for the NFC Championship game, with the winner moving on to the Superbowl.

Kansas City Chiefs at New England Patriots The Chiefs came into the game riding the NFL’s longest win streak, winning their last 11 games (their last loss was to the Vikings, week 6). On the flip side, New England was dealing with a multitude of injuries and had lost four of their last six games to end the regular season. Everything was pointing Kansas City’s way, but then they ran into Tom Brady and Bill Belichick.

With Julian Edelman and Rob Gronkowski back, Tom Brady was looking like his old self. Kansas City has a tremendous defense, equally stout against both pass and run. But Coach Belichick must have seen something he could take advantage of, as he elected to drop back and throw 47

• Seamless Standing Seam Roofing • Seamless Roofing • Seamless Steel Siding • “Stone Coated Steel Roofing”

times, compared to only nine runs. In the end, New England won 27-20.

Pittsburgh Steelers at Denver Broncos Even though the Steelers were without their top receiver, top two running backs, and their quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was playing at less than 100 percent, they were still able to keep it close against the Denver Broncos. However, the Steelers ended up losing 23-16.

Peyton Manning was able to do just enough to keep the game close, and Denver’s defense was able to do the rest, keeping Pittsburgh’s high powered offense in the stable for most of the game. Denver is able to remain at home to prepare for the visiting New England Patriots and the two teams will play this weekend in the AFC Championship game. The winner of this week’s game will face either Carolina or Arizona in the Superbowl.

ADAMS Co. Jaycees BINGO! coach Jeff Davidson. Instead, the Vikings have hired former Miami Dolphins Head Coach Tony Sparano for Davidson’s vacated position.

Everson Griffen will replace J.J. Watt in the Pro Bowl. This is Everson’s first Pro Bowl, and he will join Adrian Peterson as the only representatives in Hawaii for the Purple and Gold, a travesty when considering Linval Joseph, Anthony Barr and Harrison Smith were all more than deserving.

Blair Walsh has received plenty of criticism for missing the 27-yard field goal that possibly would have sent the Vikings to the next round of the playoffs.

However, Walsh has also received plenty of support, sometimes coming from unusual places. First graders from Northpoint Elementary in Blaine, Minn., made and sent cards of support to Blair, who in turned visited the school to let the students know how much he appreciated the kind words.

of that, their 6’4” center Mason Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls and would not return until the 2nd half. The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25.

With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-

26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points.

They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied.

The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot.

Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the

Nighthawks.

Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points.

Timm said the early registration process was very simple, and they were very accommodating with the type of work he was able to do.

“Easy, easy,” Timm said. “If you aren’t able (to perform a duty), they’ll find something easier for you to do.”

Timm lauded about the process and how the program has treated him the past year, and said he would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in getting involved.

“If anybody is kind of bored, and they meet the criteria, I would recommend it, it’s a good program, it’s not hard and it’s fairly easy to get into,” Timm said. “It’s a good program, very good.”

Right now Jackson said they are looking for people, because there are positions out there that need to be filled.

“The problem is finding the people (to fill those positions),” Jackson said.
