It was a surreal confluence of events for Faron Jackson Sr. Stuck inside his home on the Leech Lake Reservation in northern Minnesota with COVID-19, the tribal chairman watched as Congress voted to expand the boundaries of the reservation by 11,760 acres. His small quarantined world would soon be expanding, spilling out onto forest land dotted with lakes, streams and towering pine trees that the government illegally seized from his tribe more than 70 years ago. "It's been devastating," said...
Five of the 10 children at Wendy Clark's day care left when the pandemic started, and it took a while to regain clients. The cost of cleaning supplies climbed even as she needed them more than ever. Then her family got COVID-19. Then, shortly before she was forced to shutter her Shakopee home business for weeks of quarantine, Clark received a $4,500 grant from Scott County. "That saved us," she said of the money that trickled down from the federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security...
So, what's your titer? That question, still strange sounding, may soon become important as vaccines bring about the endgame for COVID-19. A person's COVID titer (pronounced TIGHT-er) is a measure of the concentration of virus-neutralizing antibodies in their blood. A high-enough titer of the antiviral proteins provides immunity to COVID-19, though researchers are still working to nail down exactly when protection ends. https://www.startribune.com/this-test-can-read-your-level...
A Vikings team that limped into its bye week at 1-5, after a stupefying loss to a winless Falcons team that had just fired its coach and general manager, now finds itself holding a playoff position in a field expanded to 14 teams to fill more fan bases with hope and the coffers of the NFL and its TV partners with cash. There is an extra playoff team in both conferences and right now in the NFC, it would be the Vikings, winners for the fifth time in six games on Sunday after a 27-24 overtime...

SAN FRANCISCO - The vast region of Southern California, much of the San Francisco Bay area and a large swath of the Central Valley are about to be placed under a sweeping new lockdown in an urgent attempt to slow the rapid rise of coronavirus cases.

State regulators declined Friday to grant a stay on construction of Enbridge's new pipeline across northern Minnesota, leaving little recourse to stop work on the $2.6 billion project while court appeals of key approvals and permits are pending. "Operation of the existing Line 3 is more likely to cause harm than construction of the project," said Minnesota Public Utilities Commissioner Valerie Means, explaining her vote against the stay. "The commission has determined that replacing an old, aging pipeline is the safest option for protecting...
Two protesters climbed trees at a Mississippi River crossing Friday to stand in the way of Enbridge Line 3 pipeline construction, which began earlier this week across northern Minnesota. The protesters, who call themselves "water protectors," mounted the protest among an Aitkin County forest set to be logged as "direct blockades to the attempt by Enbridge to drill Line 3 under the Mississippi River." "Water is not invincible. That's why I am here," said 22-year-old Liam DelMain of Minneapolis...
LEECH LAKE -- Delina White's dive into fashion began at age six in a two-room shack without electricity, under the watchful eye of her grandmother. A master beadwork artist, her grandmother taught her everything she knows about beading. Growing up, White quickly discovered a passion for the traditional woodland style of beading but soon realized it is nearly impossible to make a profit equivalent to the amount of work required. She recalled her grandmother selling her beaded work for just a...

Republican election officials have pushed back against the president's rhetoric, which they say led to threats against election workers. https://www.npr.org/2020/12/05/943295990/the-political-world-starts-to-move-on-from-trump?utm_source=npr_newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_content=2020...
Early test results this fall confirm that the pandemic has taken a toll on students' academic growth, particularly in math. But a new study from the Northwest Evaluation Association suggests we still lack a clear picture of the most vulnerable students. In a new study released today, NWEA researchers found more than 4.4 million students in grades 3-8 who participated in NWEA's MAP Growth test this fall performed about on par in reading, but 5 to 10 percentile points lower in math, compared to their peers in fall 2019. That means a student who...
