Minnesotans will spend another day in the deep freeze on the MLK Monday holiday as the bitter cold and dangerously low windchills continue for a third day. The National Weather Service has issued a windchill advisory until noon for a large portion of southern and central Minnesota and western Wisconsin as windchill readings will hover between minus 25 to minus 35 degrees. That's on top of temperatures in the teens below zero reported throughout the metro area at 5 a.m., the weather service said. http://www.startribune.com/to...
CHARLESTON, S.C. — Turning up the temperature, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders tangled repeatedly in Sunday night's presidential debate over who's tougher on gun control and Wall Street and how to steer the future of health care in America. It was the last Democratic matchup before voting begins in two weeks, and both sides were eager to rumble as polls showed the race tightening in the leadoff states of Iowa and New Hampshire. Clinton rapped Sanders, the Vermont senator, for voting repeatedly with the National Rifle Association, and then w...
Call it insurance for your health insurance. As deductibles get bigger, insurers are pushing extra coverage that can help people with certain serious health problems cover out-of-pocket costs. These “critical illness” policies have been around for years, but Minnetonka-based UnitedHealthcare and St. Paul-based Securian Financial Group are among the insurers making recent moves in the growing market. http://www.startribune.com/insurers-push-policies-for-coverage-gaps/365601121/...
In recent years, a consensus has emerged that sleep is a critical health issue, but researchers have largely focused on individual behavior. One area that has lagged is what researchers calls “dyadic sleep,” or “sleep concordance.” Sixty percent of people sleep with another person. When one person has sleep issues, both can suffer. Certain sleep disorders, such as snoring, have been shown to harm relationships, largely because the person hearing the snoring experiences disrupted sleep. Women living with snorers, for instance, are three times a...
The Twin Cities area can expect a replay of Sunday’s bitter windchills on Monday, perhaps not as severe as the 40 below reported Sunday in Lakeville, but potentially dangerous nonetheless, forecasters say. Windchill readings of 25 below to 35 below are forecast for all of central and southern Minnesota and western Wisconsin under an advisory that is expected to run until noon Monday, the National Weather Service (NWS) said. http://www.startribune.com/double-digits-below-zero-greets-twin-cities-this-a-m/365572881/...
BURNS, Ore. (AP) - The chairwoman of the Burns Paiute Tribe has asked federal officials to bring criminal charges if any ancient artifacts are damaged or missing from a wildlife refuge currently occupied by an armed group. Thousands of ancient artifacts and maps to prehistoric sites are kept at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon. http://www.kezi.com/news/The_Latest_Tribe_to_Seek_Prosecution_if_Relics_Go_Missing.html...
Sarah Winnemucca isn’t a name known by many—her surname is more likely identified as a town in Nevada than the last name of one of the nineteenth century’s most prominent American Indian writers and activists. Author of Life Among the Piutes, one of the first published narratives by a Native American, she made frequent headlines for her vocal support of indigenous rights. One of her most long-lasting campaigns was to restore her people, the Northern Paiutes, to the Malheur Reservation, which was created in 1872 by the U.S. government. In Janua...
The standoff with armed militia in Oregon escalated on Friday after police swooped in on one of the protesters to make the first arrest in connection with the two-week occupation of a federal wildlife refuge. Kenneth Medenbach, who was arrested for unauthorized use of a government vehicle, is a chainsaw sculptor and longtime nemesis of the government with a history of previous entanglements with the courts over the occupation of federal lands. http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/jan/15/oregon-militia-standoff-arrest-stol...
The rancher arrived with the evening snowfall. He wore a white hat, a silk scarf and a face carved with Western credibility. The Bundy brothers were not expecting him, but they had a problem he thought he could help solve. On the one hand, their armed standoff, deep into its second week, had gained an air of stability. Over at the bunkhouse, pork and potato salad donated by a hay farmer were being served. http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-sej-oregon-standoff-20160116-story.html...
BURNS, ORE. —The shout startles everyone: “Provocateur at the gate!” A young man runs through the communal kitchen at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, two others fast behind. They are dressed in camouflage and pulling on military-style vests. All three wear black balaclavas as they rush outside and run to the front entrance of the headquarters that has been held by anti-government occupiers for the past two weeks. https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/these-buildings-will-never-ever-return-to-the-federal-government/2016/...
A chairwoman of Vancouver's annual memorial march for missing and murdered aboriginal women says she's concerned a national inquiry will leave out a crucial issue — feminism. Fay Blaney, who co-chairs the February 14 Women's Memorial March Committee, said the starting point of an inquiry must be the barriers indigenous women face in Canadian society. Indigenous Affairs Minister Carolyn Bennett is touring the country to meet with families, survivors and aboriginal representatives to hear what they want from an inquiry. http:/...
FARMINGTON — A new bill is calling to postpone this year’s election for chapter officials and other offices because discussion is still continuing about amending the chapter government system. The tribe’s election calendar lists the filing period opening on March 3 for chapter president, vice president and secretary-treasurer, as well as membership on farm, school and land boards, grazing committees and other offices. http://www.daily-times.com/story/news/local/navajo-nation/2016/01/16/bill-proposes-delaying-navajo-nation-el...
SYDNEY -- A video game allowing players to kill Australian Aboriginals has been removed from mobile stores after more than 50, 000 people signed an online petition against the racist app. The app, "Survival Island 3 -- Australia Story", tells users that they have to find ways to stay alive in "one of the most dangerous places in the world", including having to "fight with aboriginals -- you invaded their home!". https://www.enca.com/technology/racist-video-game-pulled-stores-after-uproar...
BROWNING -- A note from Browning's mayor to the town’s citizens is taped to the front door of City Hall. The toll from events over the past two years, Mayor Willie Morris writes, has forced the town to reduce operations to just four hours a day, four days a week. Browning is broke. Last month it posted a press release online telling its citizens it was at risk of disincorporation. http://helenair.com/news/state-and-regional/city-tribe-point-fingers-but-one-thing-is-clear-browning/article_fc4b283a-ec39-57b4-b47b-bbb2a851d55f....

A leader of the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Michigan has been removed from office after being convicted on a marijuana charge. Rita Glyptis was convicted in tribal court last May but refused to step down from her position as the Unit V representative on the tribe's board of directors. So a tribal member circulated a position and collected enough signatures to force a hearing on the issue. http://www.indianz.com/News/2016/020085.asp...
A drop in 9-1-1 calls for help might seem like a good thing, but to those at Little Earth, it's disturbing. Over the past year, Little Earth leaders noticed that 9-1-1 calls diminished, but crime didn't. As a result, they applied for, and won, a federal grant from the U.S. Department of Justice for $155,000 to help make sense of what's going on. Little Earth is a public housing complex in South Minneapolis. The area resembles an urban reservation. http://www.kaaltv.com/article/stories/S4020422.shtml?cat=10151...
