    Mar 16, 2023
    1

    Dora Zaidenweber has been telling her story most of her life, and she's used to the effect it can have on people. People reacted with shock when she arrived in the United States with her family in 1950 as a young woman who survived six months in the Auschwitz death camp, where she could smell the bodies burning. She saw people's disbelief as she strived for the education she was deprived of for so many years working in forced labor camps. "People were not quite believing that this could have...

  • Minnesota Supreme Court orders expanded camera access in courtrooms

    Mar 16, 2023

    The Minnesota Supreme Court issued a seismic ruling Wednesday regarding media coverage inside criminal trials by expanding camera and audio courtroom access after decades of debate and calls for change. "It's groundbreaking in this state," said University of Minnesota media law and ethics professor Jane Kirtley, seeing the decision as having been a long time coming. Minnesota joins more than 35 other states that have routinely allowed cameras in court. Florida became the first in 1979, but...

    Mar 16, 2023

    In a year that already ranks as one of the snowiest on record, more is on the way.

  • Farmers, gas stations sue Gov. Tim Walz over Minnesota Clean Cars rule

    Mar 16, 2023

    Though they have yet to take effect, Minnesota's "clean cars" standards to limit climate pollution from tailpipes are under legal assault. A coalition of soybean farmers, gas stations, convenience stores and ethanol industry players has sued Gov. Tim Walz and state pollution regulators in federal court saying the requirements violate federal law and will damage their business. Minnesota can't regulate vehicle fuel economy beyond federal standards, even if California was granted a federal waiver...

  • Suspected fentanyl trafficker caught in Minnesota with enough pills for 2 million deadly doses

    Mar 16, 2023

    A single traffic stop last month of a man suspected of trafficking massive quantities of fentanyl pills from California to Minnesota yielded enough pills to produce more than 2 million possible lethal doses, according to new federal charges unsealed this week. State troopers arrested Cortez Ananias Williams at the Minnesota-Iowa border on Feb. 13 after a task force that had been investigating him for a year used an informant and cellphone location data to track his latest cross-country trip to...

  • A promising life derailed by marijuana

    Mar 16, 2023
    2

    Catherine Mayberry was an honor student at Minnetonka High School. An award-winning artist. A varsity tennis player who also loved skiing and softball. A loving sister and daughter. On Oct. 8, at age 24, she died from an accidental overdose of meth mixed with fentanyl. Sadly, her parents, Trent and Jane Mayberry, consider this her "second death." In their view, they'd already lost her after she began using marijuana heavily in her late teens. As Catherine's mental health relentlessly...

  • Prisons remain on partial lockdown following attacks on Minnesota corrections officers

    Mar 16, 2023

    Two Minnesota prisons remained on partial lockdown Wednesday following a surge of attacks by inmates on corrections officers last week, as officials try to get a handle on what happened and how future assaults could be prevented. Seven officers were injured in total among three incidents, two attacks at Stillwater and one at the Oak Park Heights site, according to the Minnesota Department of Corrections. Corrections Commissioner Paul Schnell said that while it's difficult to prevent random...

  • A Minnesota nonprofit proposes facility to make chemicals from corn, sugar beets, even dandelions

    Mar 16, 2023

    From dandelions to switchgrass to sugar beets, the crops and plant life on Minnesota's farm fields may power tomorrow's petrochemical alternatives. They may even be brewed up on a local campus under a newly unveiled bill at the Legislature. That's if the state opts to pony up $100 million. "Minnesota has some of the key features that are required to make this possible," said Douglas Friedman, CEO of BioMADE, a Minneapolis-based nonprofit partnership that includes Minnetonka-based Cargill and...

  • US and Russia ratchet up rhetoric over downing of drone

At the same time, the two countries' defense chiefs opened a dialogue about the incident. The Kremlin said the flight proved again that Washington is directly involved in the fighting in Ukraine and added that Moscow would try to recover the...

  • US tribes get bison as they seek to restore bond with animal

    Mar 16, 2023

    GOLDEN, Colo. — Dozens of bison from a mountain park outside Denver were transferred Wednesday to several tribes from across the Great Plains, in the latest example of Native Americans reclaiming stewardship over animals their ancestors lived alongside for millennia. Following ceremonial drumming and singing and an acknowledgement of the tribes that once occupied the surrounding landscape, the bison were loaded onto trucks for relocation to tribal lands. About a half-dozen of the animals from Colorado will form the nucleus of a new herd for t...

    Mar 16, 2023

    NEW YORK - Porn actor Stormy Daniels met Wednesday with prosecutors who are investigating hush money paid to her on former President Donald Trump's behalf, her lawyer said Wednesday.

    U.S. Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland (Laguna Pueblo) on Tuesday withdrew a land exchange in Alaska between the Interior Department and King Cove Corporation that was signed by Trump administration's Interior Secretary David Bernhardt in July 2019. The land exchange would have allowed a road through the Izembek National Wildlife Refuge that lies between the Bering Sea and the Gulf of Alaska.

  • WARNING TO BUYERS OF NATIVE CULTURAL HERITAGE

    Mar 16, 2023

    Native Country, U.S.A., March 15, 2023, – There is a long sordid history of theft and looting of Native bodies and their burial objects from graves, and other sensitive sacred and cultural patrimony, even today. This theft and looting have created a commercial enterprise in the sale of those items, re-labeled as Native American “art,” “artifacts” and “antiquities.” Auction houses, dealers and collectors do everything they can to protect their investments from the truth of their origin—often knowingly disguising the chain of custody of thes...

  • Working from Home is Working

    Mar 16, 2023

    One of the biggest changes to employment coming out of the pandemic is the huge increase in the percentage of people working from home. While not every job is able to be done remotely, the ability to work from home is a major recruitment factor for many positions as people demand more ways they can remain productive while finding work-life balance. Our current tight labor market has made more employers open to remote work – whether a few days a week or 100% time from home. Among midwestern states, Minnesota is at the leading edge of employers a...
