St. Paul, MN: The Agricultural Fertilizer Research and Education Council (AFREC) is requesting proposals for Minnesota-focused fertilizer research and outreach projects. Currently, $1 million in grants is available for research, education and outreach, and for an AFREC research coordinator.

AFREC was established by the Minnesota Legislature in 2008 and receives funding through a $0.40 per ton fee on fertilizer sales. Copies of the Reque...
A roughly 4,000-year-old burial site discovered on an island off the coast of Georgia points toward ties between early hunter-gatherers living on opposite sides of North America. As researchers led by Matthew Sanger, an anthropologist at New York’s Binghamton University, report in the journal American Antiquity, the McQueen shell ring—a large circle of shells centered around a burial pit filled with stone tools, the cremated remains of seven humans and a ceremonial copper band—closely mirrors graves seen in the Great Lakes region, sugge...
The street corners of downtown Rapid City, South Dakota, the gateway to the Black Hills and the self-proclaimed "most patriotic city in America," are populated by bronze statues of all the former Presidents of the United States, each just eerily shy of life-size. On the corner of Mount Rushmore Road and Main Street, a diminutive Andrew Jackson scowls and crosses his arms; on Ninth and Main, a shoulder-high Teddy Roosevelt strikes an impressive pose, holding a petite sword. As one drives farther...

The B.C. government is ending a controversial practice that allowed hospitals and child welfare agencies to flag mothers deemed to be high-risk without them knowing, but advocates say the move doesn't spell the end of child apprehensions. So-called hospital or birth alerts have often led to babies being seized from mothers just days after they were born. The alerts have been mainly used in cases involving marginalized women, including a disproportionate number of Indigenous women, the province said in its announcement Monday....

The family also agreed to provide $3 billion in cash over several years and future revenue from the sale of OxyContin to assist communities hardest hit by the opioid epidemic....
There is steady interest in joining a $600-million class action lawsuit claiming RCMP discrimination against Indigenous people in the North, according to one of the lawyers who initiated the lawsuit. The class action was launched last December. Tuktoyaktuk teenager Joe David Nasogaluak is the lead plaintiff. In 2017, Nasogaluak's father told CBC News his son, then 15, was Tasered by RCMP after the officers suspected he had given them a false name. The lawsuit alleges the RCMP have routinely used excessive force when interacting with Indigenous...
