  • Minneapolis makes push to ban new drive-through services

    May 17, 2019

    After making the initial push earlier this decade, Minneapolis officials are now moving to ban new drive-throughs in an effort to cut down on vehicle traffic and meet the city's sustainability goals. At a meeting Thursday afternoon, the city's Planning Commission was supportive of an amendment to the zoning code that would prohibit new drive-throughs citywide. Existing drive-throughs would not be affected by the amendment, which was brought forth by City Council President Lisa Bender....

  • 'We are at somewhat of an impasse,' Sen. Rosen says before budget talks end for night

    May 17, 2019

    Closed-door budget talks between DFL Gov. Tim Walz and legislative leaders stretched into Thursday with no word of a deal, raising anxieties across the State Capitol as lawmakers confronted the possibility of a special session after Monday's deadline to adjourn. The silence surrounding the talks - a stark contrast to the acrimonious finger-pointing of the previous week - raised hopes for progress but also lent an air of uncertainty. http://www.startribune.com/closed-door-budg...

  • As trade dispute escalates, Minnesota farmers brace for another miserable year

    May 17, 2019

    Late spring planting, as is happening this year in Minnesota, tends to weaken the fall harvest and lift prices on crops. But not when there's a trade war. http://www.startribune.com/as-trade-dispute-escalates-minnesota-farmers-brace-for-another-miserable-year/510041552/...

  • SAT to add 'adversity score' that rates students' hardships

    May 17, 2019

    The College Board, the company that administers the SAT exam taken by about 2 million students a year, will for the first time assess students not just on their math and verbal skills, but also on their educational and socioeconomic backgrounds, entering a fraught battle over the fairness of high-stakes testing. The company announced Thursday that it will include a new rating, which is widely being referred to as an "adversity score," of between 1 and 100 on students' test results. An average...

  • Third chapter in 'John Wick' series sticks to the franchise's template

    May 17, 2019

    The "John Wick" movies come with a blueprint. We know there will be sharply choreographed, creatively efficient violence. There will be a brooding Keanu Reeves killing dozens. There will be eye-popping stunts and a network of sharply dressed assassins. There will be kung fu. Does "John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum" break the formula? Director Chad Stahelski, who has directed all the movies in the series, wouldn't dare. http://www.startribune.com/third-chapter-in-john-wick-ser...

    May 17, 2019

    Next-generation wireless technology took another step forward Thursday as the first smartphone with built-in 5G technology arrived in stores - and Minneapolis was one of the few places to test it out. Samsung Electronics Co. introduced its model S10 5G around the U.S. But for the moment, the phone, which has a base price of $1,299, can achieve 5G speeds only in Minneapolis and Chicago. http://www.startribune.com/samsung-verizon-launch-first-5g-phone-entry-price-is-1-300/51001...

  • Trump pushes immigration plan favoring 'merit' over family

    May 17, 2019

    WASHINGTON — Unveiling a new immigration plan, President Donald Trump said Thursday he wanted to provide a sharp contrast with Democrats, and he did — aiming to upend decades of family-based immigration policy with a new approach that favors younger, "totally brilliant," high-skilled workers he says won't compete for American jobs. Trump's sweeping immigration plan is more a campaign document than anything else. It's a White House attempt to stretch beyond the "build-the-wall" rhetoric that swept the president to office but may not be eno...

  • Lady Warriors lose in 5 innings to Blackduck 21-4 - P4

    Michael Barrett, RLNN|May 17, 2019

    The Red Lake Lady Warriors lost in 5 innings to Blackduck 21-4 in Red Lake on Monday, May 13, 2019. The Junior Varsity also dropped their game. Part of the problem could have been they were released from class at 10:30 that morning for an 11 AM game, which would have only gave them about 10 to 15 minutes to get their uniforms on, get to the field, and start playing. They didn't have much time to warm up. The loss gave Red Lake a 3-3 record on the season. Red Lake's Lady Warriors will play Pine...

    Michael Barrett, RLNN|May 17, 2019

    It took some improvisation, but Minneota was finally able to pull away from Red Lake in the Class 1A quarterfinals Thursday at Maturi Pavilion. After falling behind by 10 points early in the first half, the Vikings made adjustments and rallied for a 66-46 victory over the Warriors.

For about three-fourths of the game, we ran a new...
