A decadelong quest to end homelessness in Minneapolis and Hennepin County has yielded discouraging results: The number of people without homes hasn't dropped. It has risen. There are 231 more homeless people — living in the streets, in emergency shelters or in transitional housing — in Hennepin County in the final year of the push than when it began in 2007. Last year's count found 3,125 homeless people in the county, which accounts for two of every five homeless Minnesotans. Homeless counts also are up statewide for the same period, des...
ROME — One of Pope Francis' top advisers acknowledged that the Catholic Church "has made enormous mistakes" in allowing thousands of children to be raped and molested by priests over centuries as he testified at an extraordinary public hearing of an Australian investigative commission just a few blocks from the Vatican.

In the front row of the conference room were two d...
NEW YORK — U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer wants to require the Federal Aviation Administration to establish seat-size standards for commercial airlines, which he says now force passengers to sit on planes "like sardines." The New York Democrat told The Associated Press the airlines have been slowly cutting down legroom and seat width. "One of the most vexing things when you travel on an airplane is there's almost no legroom on your standard flight," Schumer said. "There's been constant shrinkage by the airlines." http://www.start...
Near record temperatures over the weekend likely spawned cases of spring fever, but the warmth also signals the arrival of something that might be even more menacing to motorists than road construction: pothole season. Those unwelcome divots and craters have started showing up around town, but early indications are that with the mild winter, drivers may not be dodging as many of those tire puncturing, rim bending, suspension damaging and wallet draining holes this year. “It’s quiet so far,” said Mike Thomke with the St. Paul Public Works Depar...

Asetoyer, a Native woman herself, had been working on behalf of Native girls and women for more than two decades. In spite of her years of experience, one question the mother asked caught her off guard: “What should I tell my daughter when she’s rap...
