The Twin Cities could get 3 to 4 inches of fresh snow Sunday night, and while the snow is expected to be done Monday morning, roads could be slick. As the snow falls Sunday night, the temperature will be near freezing, National Weather Service meteorologist Brent Hewett said, meaning the snow could melt and freeze and make the roads treacherous Monday morning. "If the road looks wet, expect some patchy black ice and slick spots," Hewett said. "Take some extra time." https://w...

SELMA, Ala. - President Joe Biden used the searing memories of Selma's ''Bloody Sunday'' to recommit to a cornerstone of democracy, lionizing a seminal moment from the civil rights movement at a time when he has been unable to push enhanced voting protections through Congress and a conservative Supreme Court has undermined a landmark voting law. ''Selma is a reckoning. The right to vote ... to have your vote counted is the threshold of democracy and liberty. With it anything's possible,'' Biden...

The ensnared fish seemed to materialize from the opaque water. Thrashing, wriggling, they rose, enfolded by mesh. The lift reeled in the gillnet into the arms of a waiting crew, who hoisted it atop a table. Lake herring flopped weakly as the men gripped and untangled them from rope and nylon fiber. Iridescent scales popped into the air like confetti. “When the floor is shiny with scales, we know we are making money,” said commercial fisherman Donny Livingston, grinning widely. https://ictnews.org/news/great-lakes-pollution-t...
