PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) — President Donald Trump on Sunday declared “NO MORE” to a deal to help “Dreamer” immigrants and threatened to pull out of a free trade agreement with Mexico unless it does more to stop people from crossing into the U.S. He claimed they’re coming to take advantage of protections granted certain immigrants. “NO MORE DACA DEAL!” Trump tweeted one hour after he began the day by wishing his followers a “HAPPY EASTER!” https://www.twincities.com/2018/04/01/trump-ridiculous-laws-make-border-patrol-more-danger...
FARGO, N.D. — Plans for a surprise Easter gathering in northwest Minnesota were cut short by an interstate crash that has left one family mourning the deaths of two young children and dealing with serious injuries to their mother and 3-year-old sibling. Amber Eisele, 34, was en route to her mother’s house in Stephen, Minn., with her three children Sunday when she got a call that her sister, Trista Curry, of Fargo, had been in a crash on Interstate 29 near Grand Forks. Curry and her three children were also headed to Stephen for the Easter bre...
Apple, maker of iPads and other shiny tech gadgets, last week chose an unusual venue for its latest press event — an inner-city Chicago magnet high school called Lane Tech College Prep. The Silicon Valley tech company could just as well have selected St. Paul’s Central High School or another district school for its first big 2018 product unveiling — an event that happened to be aggressively education-focused. https://www.twincities.com/2018/04/01/apple-and-ipad-are-underdogs-in-a-fight-with-google-for-classroom-dominance/...
“There’s a man with a gun trying to hurt me!” a terrified St. Paul man told a 911 operator. Officers rushed to his residence, but they found no sign of a gunman. After the 54-year-old man dialed 911 on a few other days, reporting the same scenario, Sgt. Jamie Sipes responded to one of the calls. Sipes coordinates the police department’s new mental health unit. https://www.twincities.com/2018/03/31/new-st-paul-mental-health-officers-look-at-policing-differently/...
The Minnesota Legislature has left the building. Lawmakers started their traditional Easter-Passover break on Good Friday, set to return on April 9 with a lot left to do. Most of the record 8,207 bills they introduced last year and this year never will even see a committee hearing (last year’s bills remain available for action this year). But in the time left before the May 21 mandatory adjournment date, lawmakers will be busy. https://www.twincities.com/2018/03/31/mn-legislature-on-easter-passover-break-before-home-stretch/...
RED LAKE—The wreckage of St. Mary's Mission Church hadn't yet cooled when Rev. Jerry Rogers received the first donation to be put toward the construction of a new place of worship. "The very foundation of the building fund is $5, which an elder gave us the afternoon of the fire," Rogers said, three months after the historic Red Lake church burned to the ground in an overnight fire. "She said, 'Father, this is all I have. I want you to use it to build the new church.'" http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/4425600-out-ashes-thou...

DETROIT — The Trump administration is expected to announce that it will roll back automobile gas mileage and pollution standards that were a pillar in the Obama administration’s plans to combat climate change. It’s not clear whether the announcement will include a specific number, but current regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency require the fleet of new vehicles to get 36 miles per gallon in real-world driving by 2025. That’s about 10 mpg over the existing standard. https://www.twincities.com/2018/03/30/trump...

CLEARWATER COUNTY—Paul Stolen waded through deep snow down a steep valley toward LaSalle Creek, about four miles north of Lake Itasca, where the Mississippi River begins, and contemplated what would happen if an oil pipeline ruptured in this spot. "You're not going to be able to clean up the oil, if it reaches the bottom of the valley," the retired Minnesota Department of Natural Resources biologist said recently as he walked the tract. You're "simply not going to do that, because of the nature of the wetland soils and the uniqueness of this a...

A growing problem that is costing farmers more money each year is herbicide resistant weeds. The primary driver for resistant weeds comes from the repeated use of the same herbicide with the same mode of action year after year. What can be done? Scouting for herbicide resistant weeds throughout the growing season and even when harvest time comes around can be very beneficial. The earlier the detection, the more time there is allotted to eliminate the plant or patch by mowing, hand removal,...
