  • Trump: 'I don't believe' government climate report finding

    Nov 27, 2018

    WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump on Monday rejected a central conclusion of a dire report on the economic costs of climate change released by his own administration. But economists said the National Climate Assessment's warning of hundreds of billions of dollars a year in global warming costs is pretty much on the money. https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-dont-believe-government-climate-report-finding-201259114--politics.html...

    Nov 27, 2018

    CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — A NASA spacecraft designed to drill down into Mars' interior landed on the planet Monday after a perilous, supersonic plunge through its red skies, setting off jubilation among scientists who had waited in white-knuckle suspense for confirmation to arrive across 100 million miles of space. Flight controllers at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, leaped out of their chairs, screaming, dancing and hugging, upon learning that InSight had arrived on Mars, the graveyard for a multitude of previous m...

  • Mueller: Ex-Trump campaign chair lied, broke plea agreement

    Nov 27, 2018

    WASHINGTON — Special counsel Robert Mueller is accusing former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort of lying to federal investigators in the Russia probe in breach of his plea agreement, an extraordinary allegation that could expose Manafort to a lengthier prison sentence — and potentially more criminal charges. The torpedoing of Manafort's plea deal, disclosed in a court filing Monday, also results in Mueller's team losing a witness from the top of Donald Trump's presidential campaign who was present for several key episodes under inv...

    Nov 27, 2018

    Prosecutors said Monday they are still looking into the case of a man who has been jailed for the past five days on allegations that he threatened teenagers with a gun inside a McDonald's in Eden Prairie.

Tony is.” “We started to recite all the one-liners and things Tony would be saying to us at this very moment, if he were here,” Elflein said. “Even though he’s not physically here, I feel like he’s still coaching us.” http://www.startribune.com/vikings-mix-and-match-to-revive-their-dormant-ground-game/501286281/...

  • Even in a solid economy, U.S. fertility rate is falling

    Nov 27, 2018

    In some ways, the Atlantic Ocean seems unusually wide at the moment. Polls by the Pew Research Center show that western Europeans take an increasingly dim view of the United States, and not just its president. On the other side of the ocean, conservatives think that a clinching argument against universal health care is to call it European. Yet in other, more intimate, ways the two continents appear to be converging. U.S. families are increasingly hard to distinguish from European ones. http://www.startribune.com/what-s-causi...

  • Blood sugar-related hospital visits more frequent for younger adults with diabetes

    Nov 27, 2018

    Research by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) has found that younger adults with diabetes are more likely to have high blood sugar levels than older adults. Younger adults, those 18 to 44 years old, were also more likely to land in the hospital due to out-of-control blood sugar levels. Hospitalizations due to out-of-control blood sugars occurred three to five times more frequently among young adults with diabetes than older adults living with diabetes. In Minnesota, about one in 10 adults with diabetes is a young adult. However, because...

  • With Jeff Sessions out at the Justice Dept., the marijuana movement exhales

    Nov 27, 2018

    He described marijuana as a “very real danger” and has said its effects are “only slightly less awful” than those of heroin. Once, during a drug hearing when he was a Senator, he said he wanted to send a clear message: “Good people don’t smoke marijuana.” So when Atty. Gen. Jeff Sessions was ousted recently, a collective sigh of relief rose up from proponents of legalized pot — activists, politicians, investors — who felt targeted by the nation’s top law enforcement officer. https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-sessions-mari...
