  • Superior is one of the more rapidly warming lakes, study finds

    Dec 17, 2015

    The world’s lakes are warming up — even frigid Lake Superior — scientists warn. Dozens of researchers pooled decades’ worth of data from hundreds of lakes and concluded that the world’s lakes are warming even more rapidly than the oceans or the atmosphere. The warmer waters threaten fish populations, ecosystems and fresh water supplies around the globe. Closer to home, University of Minnesota Duluth Professor Jay Austin says the thick sheets of ice that blanketed Lake Superior for the past two winters did nothing to change the fact that Supe...

As Ramey was turning away, the ball then took a single bounce and snapped through the n...

  • Minnesota's medical pot firms tout new, potent strains

    Dec 17, 2015

Minnesota Medical Solutions announced Wednesday that it has bred a new strain of cannabis that is rich in cannabidiol, or CBD — a nonintoxicating compound used to treat seizures and inflammation.
