The Class 1A state tournament Final Four was oh-so-close to including three teams from the Central Minnesota Conference, but it was not meant to be.

On Saturday in the Class 1A state quarterfinals, the Jaguars suffered just their fourth loss of their unforgettable, record-breaking season. Th...
This week, the Senate passed legislation with tri-partisan support that would reassert a fair balance of governing power between the legislative branch and the executive branch during future states of emergency. The bill would reign in any future Governor from asserting emergency powers without input from the Legislature. After a year of Walz renewing his emergency powers in 30-day intervals, Senate Republicans want to ensure Minnesotans are never held to one-man-rule again. This bill will require legislative approval to extend emergency...

During the Friday, March 12 press conference at noon with Governor Tim Walz, the Minnesota Department of Health Commissioner had no answer beyond guessing on why long-term care residents are still dying in spite of vaccination efforts going on for the past two months. MDH Commissioner Jan Malcolm only replied with guessing. Incomplete answers. She stumbled over her tongue and was not able to reply to one of the very most important questions that any journalist could ask right now. Malcolm's only real reply was that she believes (without citing...

In one of the most bizarre situations imaginable, the Federal Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a negative statement on Ivermectin without offering any data to back it up. To date (March 8, 2021) a total of 47 studies around the world have taken place on the use of the anti-parasite drug Ivermectin against COVID-19. Numerous studies have shown recognizable and valuable efficacy (effectiveness) of Ivermectin against COVID-19. It pains me to have to say that "you should not overdose" on...

The historical wall project at Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa is making progress, but more images are sought as the design phase approaches in March. Photos with historical value are sought from the public at B-B-E, and this can mean many things and take form in different ways. These images will be put together in large mural-type displays at the new entrance areas of the high school and elementary buildings. One example: at the Belgrade museum, two school bells are on display from a former country...

Below is the video for worship services on Ash Wednesday at Norway Lake Lutheran parish of rural New London, MN. As Pastor Wayne says at the beginning of worship, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of the 40-day journey for the Easter season. The special day is a day of fasting and repentance for Christians, where we acknowledge that upon death, our bodies return to the earth. The sign of the cross marked on our foreheads marks the same sign of the cross marked at the time of our baptism into...

The walls will continue closing in for whoever the government deems responsible for the massive tax and penalties bill owed by the Brooten Commercial Club to the federal government. The Internal Revenue Service last week added over $6,000 in additional penalties and interest charges to the delinquent tax bill owed by the BCC to the federal government. Former BCC gambling manager Michelle Halls, a tax preparer in downtown Brooten, failed to file paperwork or make payments on four quarters of federal tax liabilities owed for the calendar year of...
