  • Dakota Access pipeline delay hurts developer, not necessarily N.D. oil producers

    Dec 12, 2016

    The Dakota Access oil pipeline’s opening is in limbo now that the U.S. Army has denied critical permits for a water crossing near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. For the pipeline’s developer, Dallas-based Energy Transfer Partners, that’s particularly bad news. Delays already have cost it nearly a half-billion dollars. Losses are tallying daily, and oil shippers could soon demand to renegotiate contracts. But for North Dakota’s overall oil industry, the pipeline’s delay isn’t a big short-term issue since petroleum production is in the dump...

    Dec 12, 2016

    BEMIDJI—Bemidji Middle School staff hope to "spark" some students to improve their attendance by strengthening the bonds between students and teachers.

How are you?"—to signify that the teacher cares about them. School staff hope the pairings will encourage students to show up to class more frequently, and have dubbed the initiative the "...

  • Hennepin County adds alternative community service for women

    Dec 12, 2016

    Thousands of criminal offenders have turned to community service to work off a fine or jail time, from picking up trash on the highway to mowing parks. But when Hennepin County probation officers noticed that the labor-intensive full-day jobs weren’t an option for young mothers and women who were pregnant or disabled, they launched an alternative community service program. The program, now in its third year, gives female offenders a different option: Working afternoons two times a month to make recycled jewelry for Minneapolis nonprofit G...
