  • Vikings know they need to 'take care of business' Sunday against Bears

    Dec 28, 2017

    The Vikings don’t want to spend Sunday afternoon scoreboard watching.

  • Minnesota's opioid crisis: Many problems begin with a prescription

    Dec 28, 2017

    Every opioid addiction has a starting point. For many, that first dose comes in the form of a prescription medication. That was the case with Dr. Angie Rake’s brother.

The last Rake knew, her brother was living on the streets of Seattle, addicted to heroin. https://www.twincities.com/2017/12/27/minnesotas-opioid-crisis-many-problems-begin-with-a-prescription/...
