  • BP: Red Lake celebrates its independence

    Jul 9, 2018

    BEMIDJI -- It was getting close to noon and Isaac Skinaway looked ready to march. In a foam Thor suit, the seven-year-old was part of a superhero-themed kids’ float at Red Lake Nation’s annual independence day parade and celebration on Friday, which commemorates the tribe’s formal sovereignty under an 1889 treaty with the U.S. government. The tribe’s political sovereignty is a point of pride for members there, and it’s the only “closed” reservation in Minnesota. http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/4469583-red-lake-celebrates-...

  • Minnesota's pension changes "far from a cure-all," Moody's warns

    Jul 9, 2018

    Just one month after Gov. Mark Dayton signed a massive overhaul of Minnesota’s pension system into law, the prominent credit rating agency Moody’s warned that the changes are “far from a cure-all.” Moody’s was one of several rating agencies that recently published articles saying the state’s reform, which is expected to stabilize the benefits of 511,000 retirees and public employees, is a step in the right direction. But the agencies warned more work will be needed to handle high pension burdens. http://www.startribune.com/m...

  • 4 rescued from Thai cave in risky operation; 9 remain inside

    Jul 9, 2018

    MAE SAI, Thailand — Expert divers Sunday rescued four of 12 boys from a flooded cave in northern Thailand where they were trapped with their soccer coach for more than two weeks, as a dangerous and complicated operation unfolded amid heavy rain and the threat of rising water underground. Eight boys and the coach remained inside the Tham Luang Nang Non cave as authorities paused the international effort to replenish air tanks along the treacherous exit route. http://www.startribune.com/thai-officials-clear-media-as-cave-rescu...

  • U.S. opposition to breast-feeding resolution stuns world health officials

    Jul 9, 2018

    A resolution to encourage breast-feeding was expected to be approved quickly and easily by the hundreds of government delegates who gathered this spring in Geneva for the United Nations-affiliated World Health Assembly. Based on decades of research, the resolution says that mother’s milk is healthiest for children and countries should strive to limit the inaccurate or misleading marketing of breast milk substitutes. http://www.startribune.com/u-s-opposition-to-breast-feeding-resolution-stuns-world-health-officials/487608401/...

  • Guns and the elderly: An under-the-radar public health hazard

    Jul 9, 2018

    There’s still a sense of shock in Paul Schnell’s voice when he talks about two murders that happened in the suburban community of Maplewood, where he served as police chief. Both involved an elderly parent shooting an adult child after arguments about what was on television — or what wasn’t. Kenneth Bowser, then 90, meant only to scare his son Larry on the night of Sept. 12, 2015, but killed him instead with a pistol he’d kept under his pillow. Eighteen months before that, 84-year-old Pang Se Vang fatally wounded his 36-year-old son after the...

  • NW. Minnesota woman charged with killing 2-month-old in her care

    Jul 9, 2018

    A northwestern Minnesota woman who was caring for an infant in her home without a license to do so is charged with killing the girl, who had injuries consistent with being severely shaken. Sarah L. Kortan, 30, was charged last week with second-degree murder in connection with last month's death of 2-month-old Josephine at Kortan's home in the Prairie Rose Apartments in Red Lake Falls. http://www.startribune.com/nw-minnesota-woman-charged-with-murdering-2-month-old-in-her-care/487595691/...

  • Boating industry says it will take a hit from tariffs

    Jul 9, 2018

    U.S. boat sales were at record levels last year, but watercraft manufacturers hit a speed bump this month when new U.S. trade tariffs went into effect for aluminum and steel imports. Europe, Canada and Mexico have retaliated with new taxes of their own on a host of U.S. made goods including metals, bourbon, soybeans and boats. http://www.startribune.com/boating-industry-says-it-will-take-a-hit-from-tariffs/487546431/...

  • Trump's economic gamble: Solid job gains vs. risky trade war

    Jul 9, 2018

    WASHINGTON — From the safety of a resilient U.S. economy, President Donald Trump lit the fuse Friday on a high-risk trade war with China. History suggests that a cycle of tariffs and retaliations can eventually choke economic growth. But for now, employers, investors and U.S. consumers are weighing the perils of a prolonged rift between the world's two largest economies against a far more positive backdrop: America's healthiest job market in years. http://www.startribune.com/trump-s-economic-gamble-solid-job-gains-vs-risky-t...

  • BP: Mitch McConnell pursued from Kentucky restaurant by angry crowd

    Jul 9, 2018

    A group of Democratic Socialists and other angry protesters pursued Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell through a restaurant parking lot in Kentucky on Saturday, berating him with a mixture of immigration rhetoric and personal insults - and at one point an apparent threat to visit his home. The Louisville encounter was the second time in two weeks that McConnell's private life has been disrupted by a spontaneous protest - and it was the latest in weeks-long series of confrontations between powerful Republicans and those eager to shame them...
