    Dec 22, 2021

  • No excuse not to get tested in Minnesota

    Dec 22, 2021

    Long lines at COVID-19 testing locations in New York and elsewhere recently illustrated two smart moves Minnesota made early in the pandemic: setting up no-cost "community testing sites" and launching a program that delivers free tests to homes. There are now 24 community testing sites statewide. The high-population metro is home to a cluster of them, but the program spans the state with locations including Crookston, Duluth, Moorhead, Marshall, Hutchinson, Albert Lea and Winona. Walk-ins are...

  • Inflation eats into General Mills earnings, more food price increases expected

    Dec 22, 2021

    General Mills is taking in more money but also spending more as the cost for everything from oats to cardboard continues to rise, denting the food maker's profit. The company, like all of its peers, has raised consumer prices on its food products - but it's not enough to offset increased expenses caused by supply chain backlogs and inflation. The Golden Valley-based packaged food giant on Tuesday reported its quarterly earnings fell 13% for the second quarter, ended Nov. 28....

  • Biden vows he, Manchin will 'get something done' on $2T bill

    Dec 22, 2021

    WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden appeared determined Tuesday to return to the negotiating table with Sen. Joe Manchin, the holdout Democrat who effectively tanked the party's signature $2 trillion domestic policy initiative with his own jarring year-end announcement.

  • The Winter Solstice Begins a Season of Storytelling and Ceremony

    Dec 22, 2021

    In the Northern Hemisphere, December 21 will be the year's day of least sunlight, when the sun takes its lowest, shortest path across the sky.

As we did before the solar eclipse in August, this December we asked our Native friends to share traditions they've heard about the winter solstice. Their answers highlight winter as a time for storytelling. Editor's Note: This...

  • Texas powwows bring massive Indigenous community together

    Dec 22, 2021

    Before the COVID-19 pandemic hit, it wasn’t uncommon for Brody Screaming Eagle to attend several powwows a year. The powwow trail, which stretches across North America, meant he often saw friends from tribes far and wide nearly every weekend. The pandemic, however, changed that, forcing many organizers to postpone or cancel their events altogether. While missing the community and the energy, Screaming Eagle, a Houstonian who is of Cherokee and Ojibwe descent, did the closest thing he could. Trying to replicate the experience, he put on p...
