How To: A Summer Survival Guide

Fri. Jul. 27th, 2012

When is the last time any Duluthian remembers existing in this glorious of a summer? I, for one, love it. The warmth has been consistent, and the cloudy days- few and far between. For this past two weeks, on eleven of the days, we reached over 80 degrees at my house. It’s almost unheard of in Duluth to have had what we are having- a real three month summer! (Oh man- knock on wood- really

Penn State Football Disgraced By NCAA

Fri. Jul. 27th, 2012  |  John Gilbert

NCAA president Mark Emmert appeared to be righteous and committed when he stood in front of the television cameras and media throng to announce the punishment that will render Penn State’s proud football team to also-ran status.

Can Penn State Football And Athletics Survive This? Mfan Shorts And More!

Fri. Jul. 27th, 2012  |  Marc Elliott

CLOQUET LAKE… Just little more than an hour ago, NCAA president Mark Emmert issued the most severe set of penalties ever levied by the governing body of collegiate sports. For the Jerry Sandusky incidents involving sexual abuse of children, Penn State University has been fined $60 mil, cannot participate in bowl games for four years, will have its football scholarships substantially reduced for those same four years, and will vacate a

What were the brain-altering psych drugs that the Batman Shooter might have been taking or withdrawing from? Part Two

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012  |  Gary G. Kohls, MD

Dramatic and recurring mass shootings seem to be a peculiarly American phenomenon, given the fact that every other nation that experiences such shootings appropriately passes legislation that effectively prevents repeat atrocities. Not in America, however, thanks to the National Rifle Association and the numerous well-paid weapons manufacturing lobbyists who threaten into silence and inaction most of our elected officials in DC, both Republican and Democrat, who can’t seem to resist taking the bribes.

Why Are You So “Stunned and Shocked” About Aurora? We Have Three A Day!

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012  |  Ed Raymond

Millions of words have been written and spoken about the murders of innocents in an Aurora, Colorado, theater. Thousands of pictures were taken and thousands of hours of video were filmed. “Stunned,” “shocked,” and other powerful adjectives were used to describe the deaths of twelve souls and the wounding of 58 others. Why in hell are you surprised, stunned,

Interview with the 8th District Hopeful Tarryl Clark

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012

Politics is a messy game. Sometimes it can produce elation, listening to the bubbly slogans of the campaign trail and eating them up verbatim. But more often than not politics is expansively depressing. That may be why almost half the country

Initial court appearances, known and unknown

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012

James Holmes was in court Mon., July 30, in a town that used to be called Columbine, charged with 142 counts of murder, etc. The whole world knows of this initial hearing for the alleged murderer/terrorist because every detail of Holmes’ life is now regularly put at the top of TV and radio news shows and above the fold in every newspaper. Someone kills a lot of people and the media swarms.  

NCNP party platform is a cry for help, and NUFA is there

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012  |  Forrest Johnson

This is a National Union of Friendly Americans (NUFA) alert. Members of the New Conservative Neanderthal Party (NCNP), formerly known only as Republicans, have gone insane, and NUFA will do its part to rehabilitate and bring these lost souls back into the human fol

The Snapping Turtle

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012  |  Ralph LaPlant

Of the two species of snapping turtles in the United States, the Alligator Snapping Turtle is located in the state of Florida. The other species, named simply Snapping Turtle, is located everywhere else east of just east of the Rocky Mountains, except in northern Maine, where it has questionable residency.

Abject Apology

Fri. Aug. 3rd, 2012  |  Harry Drabik

I’m afraid I too highly sang the praises of the carrot last week. I stand corrected and rebuked. The carrot has less high favor than I wrote. First there are those who dislike its sugar content, but the poor carrot also fits into that group of vegies some see as not-so-innocent. It’s the shape, you see. Leading the objectionable shape category is the banana, objection to it and similar shapes being of a religious nature based on the finding that cert
