MINNEAPOLIS – One of the best treats for American Indian journalists is to meet your American Indian heroes in life. Such has been the case for journalist Stacey Thunder (Red Lake Ojibwe), who through the years has interacted with the legendary Olympian Billy Mills (Oglala Sioux). "He has been my hero since I was a girl and I told him so," says Thunder, who reflects she caught emotional about telling Mills he has been her hero. "I've interviewed him two other times and each time I feel as if I...

WHITE EARTH, Minn. -- Erma Vizenor said fierce political opposition left her with "no option" but to resign Wednesday as leader of the White Earth Nation. Vizenor's resignation came amid backlash for her support of a constitution that would bring major, controversial changes to the way White Earth is governed and how its membership is determined. An overwhelming majority of White Earth voters approved the constitution in a 2013 vote, but the document was eroded after three opponents of the...
Bruce Kelly avoided nuts because of his peanut allergy. But the 22-year-old Ramsey man and his twin brother had grown complacent about eating foods bearing warnings that they had been made in plants that also processed foods with peanuts. On Monday, chocolate packaged with that warning killed Kelly. “Nearly every chocolate bar you buy has the peanut warning on it,” Kelly’s father, Brian, said Thursday. And because his sons had never had a reaction to such foods, they ignored the warnings. http://www.startribune.com/peanut-al...
Despite support from state government's two top Democrats, a special legislative session to extend unemployment benefits for laid-off Iron Range mine workers appeared unlikely Thursday due to resistance by GOP House Speaker Kurt Daudt. Gov. Mark Dayton and Senate Majority Leader Tom Bakk have pushed a special meeting of the Legislature, first for January and then in the first week of February. They wanted to extend unemployment benefits by 26 weeks for several hundred workers, and to start solving Minnesota's non-compliance with the federal...
State leaders want the Legislature to approve $10.9 million in repairs to a busy parking ramp at the Minnesota Capitol after discovering deteriorated cables supporting the deck. Hundreds of spaces have closed at the Centennial Parking Ramp over the past four months, worsening the statehouse parking crunch as workers raced to shore up concrete support beams and fix and replace cables between the basement and first floors. The Minnesota Department of Administration sought the funds in a preliminary capital budget request that Gov. Mark Dayton...
Disease-bearing black-legged ticks have spread across the country, including a fivefold increase in the number of counties in Minnesota reporting established tick populations. That compares to a 45 percent increase in the number of counties nationally reporting infestations. “It’s important for Minnesotans to know the area where the black-legged ticks … are found has been expanded,” said Dave Neitzel, a supervisor of tick-borne disease studies at the Minnesota Department of Health. Neitzel commented Thursday on the federal study. Black-l...
Residents are doing just fine at a maximum speed of 25 miles per hour in the White Bear Lake shore city of Birchwood Village. Ditto in the tiny east-metro city of Landfall, where the legal limit is 10 mph. The two Twin Cities metro-area communities opted for the slow lane years before public outcry greeted a cyclist-driven proposal to allow Minnesota cities to cut their limits on city streets to 25 mph. The proposal by the Bicycle Alliance of Minnesota, which will lobby for the change at the Legislature, has drawn howls of protest from...
